Chapter 573: Bronze Bridge Lock Suzaku (33)
Soul Haoxuan walked into the living room, glanced around, and saw two stacks of thick flatbreads on the table in the center, and the top cake had grown green hairs. There was also a bucket of water next to the table, a bucket of muddy water. Soul Haoxuan knew that this was the food that the guards gave to the dwarf.
"That's how you treat guests?" Soul Haoxuan couldn't help but ask.
"This, this is all explained by Mr. Lu, and we are also acting on orders!" replied the captain of the guard tremblingly.
"The Lu Tingxuan in my impression is not such a person!" Soul Haoxuan said coldly, the captain of the guard was frightened, thinking that Soul Haoxuan was an accomplice of this dwarf, and he came to save people this time.
"Hmph. The wicked have their own retribution!" After hearing that the person who came was not Lu Tingxuan, the dwarf immediately opened his eyes and said this, then stood up and stretched. As soon as he said this, he was even more sure of Soul Haoxuan's thoughts, what happened to the dwarf was due to the guards' disdain and disgust for him.
"Let's go, wait in the courtyard!" Soul Haoxuan glanced at the captain of the guard, and said coldly, the captain of the guard finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then ran away in a puff of smoke. After the captain of the guard left, Soul Haoxuan gently closed the door and walked towards the short man.
"Soul Haoxuan!" the dwarf rubbed his eyes, glanced at Soul Haoxuan, and then said Soul Haoxuan's name.
"Do you know me?" asked Soul Haoxuan in a deep voice.
"I know, aren't they all people in books!, how could I not know!" said the dwarf, yawning, as if he hadn't slept enough.
"I don't know which book you're talking about?" asked Soul Haoxuan with great interest.
"Don't say it!" Seeing that Soul Haoxuan was interested in books, the dwarf sold Guan Zi again.
"It's a green-skinned Zhou Yi, right? But the content of the book is not Zhou Yi, but some diary-like bits and pieces handwritten by others, which record some people and things, people and things about Huangquan Guitu!" Soul Haoxuan said coldly, and walked towards the dwarf as he spoke.
After listening to Soul Haoxuan's words, the dwarf was shocked, and his face instantly became ugly, he thought that Soul Haoxuan was the same as Lu Tingxuan, and wanted to inquire about the whereabouts of Huangquan Guitu, and it just so happened that he could take this opportunity to let Soul Haoxuan take him away. But he didn't expect that Soul Haoxuan would say such a thing, every sentence was consistent with the book in his hand, it seemed that he really knew about it. The dwarf panicked, but on the surface he pretended to be calm.
"I don't understand what you're talking about!" said the dwarf, pretending to be calm.
"Can't remember, then I'm helping you think about it!" Seeing that the dwarf didn't admit it, Soul Haoxuan was not in a hurry, but played a game of cat and mouse with him.
The dwarf didn't speak, and he didn't dare to look at Soul Haoxuan, so Soul Haoxuan continued: "You accidentally picked up this book, which you thought was just a useless book, but you accidentally discovered that what was written in the book was actually real, and you also found that everything happened according to what was written in this book, as if the whole world was directed by this book. You are stunned and overwhelmed, but you quickly realize that you can rely on this book to fool you......"
"I didn't swagger!" Hearing this, the dwarf couldn't help it, and he opened his mouth to loudly deny Soul Haoxuan's statement.
"Really, what did you do?" asked Soul Haoxuan with a squint.
"I, I just want to feel what it's like to be regarded as a superior person!" The dwarf said after holding back for a long time, "I was born a dwarf, abandoned by my parents, and looked down upon by everyone, do you understand that feeling?
"Then why did you choose Lu Tingxuan to fight for the tiger!" Soul Haoxuan asked.
"I, I don't care about right and wrong between you, in my opinion, he is the highest status, if he can enshrine me, I will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of my life!" said the dwarf vigorously.
"Offerings?" Soul Haoxuan said with squinted eyes, then looked at the green-haired flatbread on the table, and continued: "This is what you call worry-free food and clothing?"
"I'm ......" The dwarf also glanced at the disgusting food on the table, speechless, his stomach gurgling, he hadn't eaten in days!
"In this way, the book is indeed in your hand!"
"You, you trick me!" the dwarf heard this, and his face changed suddenly. Immediately understood, it turned out that what Soul Haoxuan said was just to set his own words, and he was extremely remorseful, regretting that he was like a pig and was bluffed into saying everything.
"But, you, why can you make it as if you've really read that book?" Seeing that Soul Haoxuan didn't speak, the dwarf asked curiously.
"No, that book was originally mine! I know the content is not strange, I didn't come to you to snatch your treasure, I just took back what belongs to me! Losing this book is a big mistake, I took the book back is overkill, and it is also a relief for you!" Soul Haoxuan thought about it, and said such a thing in one breath, talking a lot, and his tone was not so cold and a little humane.
"I, I can lose to you, but I'm not afraid of you, I'm really tired of playing!" said the dwarf after a fight.
"I know you're not afraid of me!" Soul Haoxuan said coldly.
"But I have one condition!" added the dwarf.
"Say!"
"Take me to dinner!" the dwarf blurted out.
Soul Haoxuan couldn't cry or laugh, frowned and looked at the dwarf for a long time, and finally nodded in agreement.
"Here you go!" Seeing that Soul Haoxuan agreed, the short man's tense nerves finally relaxed, he smiled, and threw the Zhou Yi that had always been hidden close to Soul Haoxuan.
Soul Haoxuan took Zhou Yi and opened it to see that there was only one page left in the whole book except for the book cover. Curious, he asked, "Why is there only one page left?"
"I've got a habit of tearing up the record of everything that happens!" said the dwarf in a deep voice.
Listening to the dwarf's words, Soul Haoxuan pondered for a while, according to the analysis of the dwarf's words, he would tear up everything that happened, so that means that the remaining page of Ming is something that has not happened yet! Thinking of this, Soul Haoxuan nodded, closed the book, and then stuffed it into his arms.
"Let's go!" After hiding the book, Soul Haoxuan said to the dwarf.
"Where?" asked the dwarf cautiously.
"I'll take you to eat the best food in Hangzhou City!" Soul Haoxuan said in a deep voice, and then turned to leave.
Hearing that there was something to eat, the dwarf was overjoyed, and hurriedly followed, jumping up and down like a child.
