Chapter 127: Jinji Ridge (4)

Sanqing, Soul Haoxuan and Lin Danhong plunged into the sea of books together, rummaging carefully, and in a blink of an eye, it was the second half of the night, and they looked through more than ten books of various books, but they still didn't see any record of the golden rooster, not even a folklore. ∽ ↗ top ∽ ↗ point ∽ ↗ small ∽ ↗ said,

Lin Danhong's interest was exhausted, he fell on the table, shouted a few times and was tired, and then really fell asleep.

"I don't think we can find what we want in these books!" Soul Haoxuan jumped down from the windowsill, closed the window with his hand, put the heavy book in his hand on the table casually, and then whispered to Sanqing.

"Well, I don't think it will be so easy for us to find!" Sanqing nodded and said. Then he got up and walked to the door, beckoned to Soul Haoxuan, and pointed to Lin Danhong, who was sleeping.

Soul Haoxuan understood in his heart, he knew that Sanqing was not afraid of waking up Lin Danhong, but afraid that he would hear the truth of the matter, the more people were involved, the more complicated things became, especially the people around him were involved, which would make Sanqing's burden heavier and heavier. He walked over, and then the two of them pushed the door and walked out of the room, going straight downstairs to the first floor.

"You can't believe this girl?" When he arrived on the first floor, Sanqing found a stool to sit down, while Soul Haoxuan leaned on the counter, tilted his head, and asked Sanqing softly.

"It's not that I don't believe it, it's just that there are too many people and too many things all of a sudden, I can't accept it for a while, you know, I was just a kid not long ago!" Sanqing rubbed his eyebrows and said helplessly.

"Child, you don't come! Your current mind, I may not be able to catch up with another twenty years of life, to put it bluntly, don't you even believe me?" Soul Haoxuan found a cigarette out of nowhere, put it in his mouth, and then pretended to be angry and said.

"Want to hear the truth?" Sanqing asked, looking up.

"I never lie, so I don't like people lying to me even more!" Soul Haoxuan said coldly.

"Yes! I don't believe it. Sanqing shrugged his shoulders and said, he was telling the truth, because Soul Haoxuan was also the kind of person who suddenly appeared as he said, of unknown origin, and after saying that there was an old man who asked me to follow you, he really followed, not only followed, but also worked hard. This kind of thing is simply a pie in the sky, others may believe it, but Sanqing doesn't believe it, because he thinks that everything has some kind of cause and effect relationship in it, maybe one day this pie will turn into stone. From Sanqing's own point of view, his relationship with Soul Haoxuan is a bit like Tang Sanzang and Sun Wukong, but in fact, he prefers to be this Sun Wukong, so that at least he can know that Sun Wukong is Sun Wukong, not a six-eared macaque.

"It's the truth, I like it!" After listening to Sanqing's words, Soul Haoxuan not only did not get angry, but seemed very happy, he lit the cigarette in his mouth for the first time and took a deep breath, and then continued: "If you say that you trust me now, then I'm afraid it's too hasty, otherwise you are lying." Since you have told me a bright word, then I will also open up and tell you, I did listen to the old man's words and came to you, as for the reason I don't know, but my life belongs to the old man, and I will definitely agree to what he asks me to do, and I will do it beautifully! If you want to know the reason, go to him yourself, but I am afraid that you will have to dig up his grave, go to the underworld and drag him back, or wait until the next life. ”

"Dead?" asked Sanqing in surprise, and then looked at Soul Haoxuan with wide eyes.

"That's called driving a crane to the west, oh, no, he's so fat, he should be riding a bull to return to the west!" Soul Haoxuan said seriously, but Sanqing was so amused that he couldn't cry or laugh.

"To be honest, I'm following you, it's useless for me not to do that, I'm just trying to figure out who the old man is and who I am, that's all!" Soul Haoxuan said with a cold expression.

"Well, I can understand!" Sanqing nodded, because this was also a question he desperately wanted to figure out, but he couldn't rush it, so he could only take one step at a time.

"I still have a question!" Soul Haoxuan didn't give Sanqing time to think alone, and continued.

"Mu Yi or Fan Youwei?" Sanqing guessed what Soul Haoxuan wanted to ask, so he asked.

"Mu Yi, I can see that Fan Youwei that kid was just dragged out of that small mountain village because you couldn't bear it, he shouldn't have anything to do with this matter, but Mu Yi, I can't understand it, I can't figure it out, why do you want to take him as an apprentice?" Soul Haoxuan asked with a puzzled expression.

"Like you, there was an old Taoist priest who asked me to take him as an apprentice, so I did!" Sanqing replied lightly.

Soul Haoxuan took a puff of cigarette and said meaningfully: "It's really interesting for an old Taoist priest to let you accept another old Taoist priest as an apprentice!"

"Interesting, there are more incredible things in this world, let's explore slowly!" Sanqing replied with the same playfulness.

Soul Haoxuan squeezed his eyebrows and didn't reply.

"By the way, how did you learn to smoke?" Sanqing saw that Soul Haoxuan didn't speak, so he skipped the heavy topic.

"Forget that I'm omnipotent?Why don't you just smoke a cigarette, you'll be three years old!" Soul Haoxuan seemed very relaxed and approachable at this time, not as cold as usual, and even joked with Sanqing.

"It seems to be true!" Sanqing pouted and said with a smile.

"Don't be unconvinced, you can try one!" Soul Haoxuan said triumphantly.

"Try it!" Sanqingyi gritted his teeth and said angrily.

"Okay!" Soul Haoxuan smiled slightly, and then took out a crumpled cigarette out of nowhere as if he was juggling, and handed it to Sanqing.

Sanqing did not hesitate to take the cigarette handed by Soul Haoxuan, and put it in his mouth like Soul Haoxuan.

"It's not bad, it's decent, come on, light it!" Soul Haoxuan smiled and took out the matchbox and lit a cigarette for Sanqing. Then he stood aside with his hands together and waited to see Sanqing come out of the mess.

Sanqing took a light puff of the cigarette, put the smoke in his mouth, and then showed a smug look on his face.

"Suck it into your lungs!" Soul Haoxuan instructed from the side.

Sanqing hesitated for a moment, then inhaled the smoke from his mouth deeply into his lungs.

The smoke was like a lung, and Sanqing felt a hot sensation in his lungs, and then he let out a long series ......of coughing sounds, and the smoke kept coming out of his mouth and nose.

"How is it, are you convinced?" Soul Haoxuan smiled from ear to ear.

"Not convinced!" Sanqing said in a deep voice, then gritted his teeth, and took another heavy puff of cigarette, this time, the smoke was inhaled directly into his lungs, Sanqing immediately coughed, and only stopped coughing until his face turned pale.

"Okay, don't make trouble, it's important to get down to business!" When Sanqing stopped coughing, Soul Haoxuan regained his usual indifference, he said: "I have a few buddies in Yangzhou, I'll go and ask them to see if I can find an answer!" and then turned around and left directly.

By the time Sanqing came back to his senses and wanted to say something, Soul Haoxuan had already walked out of the hotel. He looked at Soul Haoxuan's back and sighed in his heart, this man he didn't trust might be the only person he could trust!
