Chapter 377: Tuo Gu
readx;? It was nearly midnight, the moon was dark and the wind was high, and today's night was extraordinarily quiet, with cold dew in the air, lapping on people's faces, and there was a slight pain. How could there be people on the third watch at midnight, if the villagers had stopped going out for a long time on weekdays, and in their words, at this time, most of the people who would wander outside were lonely ghosts! But at midnight today, in this small village on the outskirts of the city, there were people walking around, and there was more than one person, and they came in a hurry from outside the village.www.biquge.info The first one is tall, and he carries something on his shoulders. Behind him, a man and a woman, the man's figure was short and scarred, the woman's appearance was outstanding, she was dressed up, and she also revealed the atmosphere of nobility, but her eyes were distracted, and she stumbled along the way, and her soul was not relenting.
Of these three people, it was Lu Xiao who walked in front, and the two behind were his apprentice You Yuan and Shen Ruping, the eldest lady of the Shen family. Let's say that after You Yuan got the support of Lu Xiao, he escaped, and immediately found Shen Ruping, who was hiding in the corner of the room at a loss, and pulled her out of the Shen family, all the way to this village on the outskirts of the city, as for why he fled here, it can only be said that it is based on feelings, because he met his master here for the first time, and he also learned his skills in this small village, so he felt that the master would definitely come here. And after Lu Xiao used the smoke to escape from the restaurant and left the Shen family with Shen Huailiang's body, he really rushed here, chasing after him with his foot and being injured, and You Yuan with Shen Ruping was naturally not a problem, so they quickly ran into a piece.
Along the way, the three of them were unknown, and Lu Xiao, who was leading the way in front, seemed to be preoccupied, which was inevitable, after all, the man on his shoulders was once his nominal master, and the brothers who shared weal and bene, naturally had a lot heavier on his shoulders. However, with his character, he would not think that if he had not left the Shen family with negative energy, the Shen family would have one more hometown nursing home, and he would not have ended up in such a tragic situation or something like that, in his Lao Tzu's words, "Everything in the world has a certainty"!
The two people walking behind, Shen Ruping stared at the man on Lu Xiao's back who had long been motionless and even a little stiff, her heart was like a knife, she had been a barbaric princess for more than 20 years, she had never seriously called him a father or father, and she had thought that if he died, she probably wouldn't even be able to cry! At this time, she really didn't cry, but her heart was like being pierced with thousands of needles, it hurt! She obviously hated him, why was she so distressed, she couldn't figure it out herself.
You Yuan sometimes looked at his master, and sometimes turned his head slightly to look at the barbarian princess he had guarded for many years, wanting to find some topics, but he was afraid that he would be stupid, so he would say something stupid as soon as he opened his mouth, so he had to give up, and recalled the scene when he met his master at the entrance of this village.
In the corner of the village, there was a house that was still lit at this time, and the owner of the house was a strange old man, who had moved into the village later, but he was of a higher rank than anyone in the village, or some old fellows who had been made into spirit tablets and placed in the ancestral hall, and they had to call him uncle. A few years ago, the old man liked to walk around the village very much, because he was a cultural person, so the villagers asked him to teach the child to read, the old man also agreed, and became a teacher, in those years, there was often a burly young man to visit the old man, I heard that it was his grandson, and every time he came with his grandson there was a man in a straight suit, this man was not an ordinary person at first glance, and then someone quietly inquired to know that he was the famous Shen Huailiang master in Chongqing, and the village spread for a while. Later, the old man's grandson and Shen Huailiang never came again, and the old man also said that he had broken his eyes and no longer taught children to read, and even walked around the village less, and became a simple person.
Yesterday, one of the old man's ancients suddenly came to the door, and there was also a young man who came with this ancient man, a young man who was very similar to one of his predecessors, of course he did not say it. Goodbye to the old man, it didn't bring much joy to the old man, but the young man brought a tortoise shell engraved with unknown characters, which made the old man obsessed with literacy a little excited, no, holding the tortoise shell and wearing glasses in the study for a day, and at night he didn't want to rest. At this moment, his eyes were dry and painful, so he took off his glasses and was about to rest, and just as he stood up, the door suddenly opened, and the old man squinted to see that there was no one, but another gust of wind came to his face.
"Who?" the old man felt that something was wrong, so he opened his mouth to ask, the wind was still there, but no one answered, the old man rubbed his eyes and looked at the door again, outside the door, there was a faint figure.
"What a demon!" the old man had already guessed at this time that the person was not a living person, so he said sharply.
"Old sir, it's me," the figure outside the door finally spoke.
"You, you are Huailiang!" Although he hadn't seen him for many years, the old man still recognized the owner of the voice, who was the deceased owner of his children and grandchildren, Shen Huailiang, who accompanied his grandson to see him.
"It's down there!" After saying this, the man outside the door had slowly walked into the study, standing in a position where the old man could see clearly, still wearing a straight suit, but his body was covered in blood, as if he had just experienced a fierce fight.
"You, you" Seeing Shen Huailiang like this, the old man was a little surprised, and he didn't know what to say.
"It's dead!" On the contrary, it was Shen Huailiang who said two words with a smile, looking light-hearted.
"What's the matter?" the old man asked in a deep voice, his tone was flat, with a hint of regret, but he didn't doubt the fact that Shen Huailiang was dead.
"Actually, after embarking on this road, I expected that there would be such a day sooner or later, and even more so after learning the secret of that painting, in fact, it's good to think about it, it's too tiring to live!" Shen Huailiang said earnestly.
"You came here to explain something!" the old man asked in a deep voice, after all, the soul can't condense too much time, so everything is still the main thing.
"I can't hide it from you, first, I said that I wanted to be the one who carried the coffin for the old gentleman, but now I can't do it, first accompany the old gentleman, and secondly, I am a hundred in my life, but I am also destined to affect my stupid daughter?
"What, did you give her the painting?" the old man was shocked when he heard the hidden content of Shen Huailiang's words.
