Chapter 408: The icing on the cake

On the same day, he rescued Tianqizi from the Southern Wilderness, and there was nowhere to place, and he met Hou Shulin, and under Hou Shulin's kind invitation, he handed Tianqizi to Hou Shulin to take care of.

The reason why he entrusted the Apocalypse to Hou Shulin to take care of him was mainly because this person was mercenary, and the interests valued by mercenary people would definitely do their best as long as they could get benefits.

But Hou Shulin is a villain after all, and the common problem of villains is that he is eager for quick success, he has been away from Middle-earth for almost two years, and he has never been to Hou Shulin's ruthless academy during this period. In addition, he was not sure if the news of the damage had spread back then, and if Hou Shulin heard the news, he was afraid that he would mistakenly think that he could not continue to benefit from him, and thus snubbed the Apocalypse.

It was dark and set off, and the third watch arrived.

After groaning, Nanfeng didn't knock on the door, climbed over the wall, went straight to the east courtyard, and found the wooden house where Tianqizi lived that day.

The area around the wooden house was very clean, and there were uneaten fruits on the stone table under the tree, and the sound of gentle breathing in the wooden house also indicated that Apocalypse was still here.

Seeing this situation, Nanfeng was a lot more relieved, except for his master Tian Yuanzi, when he was down-and-out and weak, Tianqizi was the most kind to him.

Standing outside the door for a while, Nanfeng pushed the door in, Tianqizi heard the sound, turned over from the bed and sat up, he lost his spirit, it was very muddy, as long as he was not attacked, he would not take the initiative to hurt people, and after sitting up, he just glanced at Nanfeng, then he lay down again and continued to sleep.

The room is very tidy, the bedding is also very clean, it seems to have been smoked with sandalwood, there is a night pot and a clog that is temporarily worn when you get up at night, and there are two pots of charcoal in the corner, the south is humid, and the charcoal is used to absorb moisture.

After looking at the things in the room, Nanfeng put his mind at ease and turned around to leave, but when he walked to the door, he suddenly remembered something, turned around and came back, and carefully observed the nails of Tianqizi from a close distance, which was completely relieved.

He showed up from Chang'an the night before, such a big thing happened in Chang'an, the news will definitely spread everywhere, it is difficult to guarantee that Hou Shulin did not hear the wind and knew that he was back, and temporarily arranged the room.

If you want to determine whether Hou Shulin is fooling around on an errand, the easiest way is to see if Tianqizi's nails have just been trimmed, and after observation, I found that no, Tianqizi's nails should have been trimmed more than ten days ago.

Out of the wooden house, Nanfeng sat down from the stone table under the tree outside the house, and tapped the stone table with the index finger of his right hand.

After a while, Hou Shulin rushed over in disheveled clothes, seeing Nanfeng sitting by the stone table, he was so excited, he walked quickly, put the bell stuffed with cotton wool on the table, and bent down to salute him, because he was too excited, he even choked "Shaoxia, Shaoxia......"

Hou Shulin really wants to cry, or pretends to want to cry Nanfeng does not go to the depth, as the so-called water to the clear, there are no fish, people to observe there are no disciples, people are selfish, others must be allowed to have selfishness, can not ask for purity, no matter what the motive, as long as the errand is done, it should be recognized and praised.

Hou Shulin actually cried, crying so sadly, he knelt on the ground, grabbing the hem of Nanfeng's clothes, "Where has Shaoxia been these days, I heard rumors earlier, and I thought you had encountered an unexpected ......" Speaking of this, the crying became more and more sad, and even couldn't cry.

"It's so easy to die, get up quickly. Nanfeng said with a smile, in his opinion, Hou Shulin's actions were not abrupt, for a small person like Hou Shulin, it was extremely rare to be able to take care of Tianqizi without his news, at the risk of being wiped out by the Taiqing Sect, it was already extremely rare, and he had been frightened for two years, and now he found that he was still alive, he was naturally relieved, and it was reasonable to cry twice, in all fairness, this errand was a bit too heavy for him.

However, although Hou Shulin is sincere, he is also cautious and clever, emphasizing that when he heard rumors, he thought that something had happened to him, but in fact, he was to flaunt his loyalty and ask him for credit, "Look, everyone outside says that you are dead, but I am still doing my best to help you on errands." ’

Hou Shulin was still crying, and he didn't stop crying until Nanfeng helped him up and sent him to the opposite stone pier, and asked about Nanfeng's current situation with concern.

Nanfeng didn't hide it from him, but he didn't say it too specifically, and dealt with it in a few words, and instead took out the rune paper from his baggage.

As soon as he saw that Nanfeng took out the talisman paper, Hou Shulin immediately got up and left under the pretext of preparing a supper for him.

When Hou Shulin walked away, Nanfeng smiled, this guy is really a smart person, he knows what he wants to do, so he immediately excuses himself to leave, so as not to stare at him intently and write, which will make him look ugly.

Not long after, Hou Shulin came back with a wooden plate, which contained some porridge and rice, and lo-mei, which southerners prefer to lo-mei, and eat porridge for dinner.

When he left that day, Nanfeng once painted the lines of the ninth tortoise shell to Hou Shulin, and this time he wrote the content of the ninth tortoise shell.

Hou Shulin took the talisman paper over, he was so excited, he knelt down, thanked him more than once, only said that he was immoral and incompetent, he was ashamed of God's grace, his words were humble, and he compared himself to a slave.

After several meals, Nanfeng was drinking porridge, and he didn't bother to correct it when he heard Hou Shulin's sycophancy, but he just waved his hand and signaled that he didn't need to do this.

Hou Shulin bowed down and stood up, sat sideways to the head of Nanfeng, first talked about the daily life of Tianqizi, and then talked about what happened on the rivers and lakes in these days, and did not ask what Nanfeng had experienced from beginning to end.

With the improvement of cultivation, the mind will also be improved, and it will be more fair to treat people with concern, in all fairness, like the Apocalypse, ordinary people can't do it, what Hou Shulin did can only be regarded as icing on the cake, but the icing on the cake can't be wrong, human nature, should not be despised and ridiculed. The icing on the cake is certainly not noble, but compared to those hypocrites who are jealous and pretend to be disdainful, slandering and slandering the hypocrites who add dung on the cake, Hou Shulin is still a very real person.

This person can use.

After eating the porridge and rice, Hou Shulin also finished speaking, and Nanfeng knew most of the things he said.

Seeing Nanfeng scouting his hand at the long sword and the burden, Hou Shulin lowered his voice, "Shaoxia, I heard that you had an accident that day, so I disguised myself and secretly visited, and it took a lot of work, although I haven't found out about you, but there is an accident." ”

Hearing him say this, Nanfeng withdrew his hand and returned, "What?"

"It is rumored that you have wandered in Chang'an in your early years, and I found your former residence in Chang'an, although I have not found you, but I unexpectedly found a down-and-out young man who wandered around there. Hou Shulin said.

Nanfeng felt a pang in his heart when he heard this, "How old is that person, and what does it look like?"

Hou Shulin didn't sell Guan Zi either, and immediately replied, "Fourteen or fifteen years old, not tall, dressed in beggar clothes, probably to hide his true face, there is a lot of dirt on his face. ”

Go on. Nanfeng said.

The young man seemed to be a little afraid, and he did not go to the ruined temple, but only looked at the ruined temple on the nearby hill, for several days, every day. Hou Shulin said this, peeking at Nanfeng's expression from the corner of his eye, and then continued, "I saw that the young man's whereabouts were different, so I had the heart to come forward to ask, but I was afraid of alarming him, so I asked the old man nearby, according to them, you did not live alone that day, but had a friend......

"Where is that person now?" Nanfeng interrupted Hou Shulin's words, the person Hou Shulin said was very likely to be Mo Li, the younger brother who had been separated from everyone for many years, Mo Li was eight years old when everyone was separated, and he already remembered, and it was reasonable to find his hometown when he grew up, and everyone fled from Chang'an when he committed a crime, so Mo Li did not dare to show his true face.

"I saw that the young man was destitute and pitiful, and suspected that he and the young man were old acquaintances, so I had the heart to help him, but I was worried that he would be frightened and suspicious, so I had to deliberately leave the silver two for him to pick up. Hou Shulin said.

"When did this happen?" Nanfeng asked eagerly, there are many merchants from the Western Regions who come to buy and sell for profit in Chang'an, and the Sifang Inn is their foothold, located near the West Gate of Chang'an, and Mo Li fled from the West Gate with Lu Pingchuan and Big Eyes back then.

"Last May. Hou Shulin said.

Nanfeng frowned suddenly when he heard this, it has been more than a year, Mo Li can't wait for everyone, and he may have left.

If that beggar is really Mo Li, he will definitely leave clues in the broken temple, but unfortunately everyone has not returned to the broken temple for a while.

Seeing Nanfeng frowning, Hou Shulin wanted to speak and stopped, until Nanfeng looked at him sideways, and then said cautiously, "That young man should still be there." ”

"How so?" asked Nanfeng.

"His legs and feet are not very convenient, and I am afraid that he will not be able to go far. Hou Shulin said.

Seeing that Nanfeng's face was gloomy, Hou Shulin had no choice but to tell the truth, "That young man has a disease in his right leg and needs crutches to walk." ”

"Do you know his name?" asked Nanfeng.

Hou Shulin shook his head and said, "Shaoxia, do you recognize this person?"

"He may be my sworn brother," Nanfeng grabbed the burden and the long sword, and stood up straight, "You have a heart, I have written down this favor." ”

"Shaoxia is serious, and it is Hou's blessing to be able to do things with Shaoxia. Hou Shulin looked terrified.

The south wind didn't say much to him, jumped up, and volleyed north.

"Taixuan?!" Hou Shulin was dumbfounded, and when Nanfeng walked away, he showed his true face and rubbed his hands excitedly, "Haha, I didn't expect that the cripple to be really his brother, this time it is developed, hahaha, developed." ”

Nanfeng was anxious in his heart, and flew straight away, and when he reached the outside of the city, the eighth master chased after him from behind.

The south wind fell on the back of the eighth master, and he stretched out his hand to the north, "Go back, to the north, hurry up." ”

Listening to his order, the eighth master immediately flapped his wings and accelerated, and galloped north.

It was the eighth master who flew with all his might, Nanfeng still felt that it was flying too slowly, and he had been separated from Mo Li for eight years, and he was worried about this little brother in his dreams, but he had no clues, he was not allowed to look for it, and he never thought that Mo Li would find it back by himself.

According to Lu Pingchuan, it was a southern couple who took Mo Li away, he once walked from Chang'an to Taiqing Sect, sleeping in the open air, suffering a lot, never thought that similar things would happen to Mo Li, the only difference is that he is from north to south, and Mo Li is from south to north.

The eighth master flew fast, and rushed back to Chang'an in the early morning, and Nanfeng knew the specific location of the inn, and directly instructed the eighth master to fly over the inn.

There are many merchants who travel to and from foreign lands in this inn, and the backyard of the inn is very large, and a large number of merchants are loading goods at this time, preparing to go west on the road.
