A second โ of small โณ said ยง net.. Wonderful novels to read for free!
Three days later, Shi and his party of four left the Qinyuan Spring Inn early, and when night fell, they quietly went to Lucheng in accordance with the instructions of Qingyang Zhenren's "Sixteen Characters" policy. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In the face of the strict "night curfew" in Lucheng, the four of them really spent a lot of effort before they passed safely without alarming the guards.
Walking in the brightly lit city, the nervous hearts of the four of them slowly calmed down with the cries of the street vendors.
Shi Shi's gaze swept over the three people beside him in turn, and he saw a faint smile on the corner of Gu Qianfan's mouth, I don't know if he was already thinking about going to Rouge Willow Lane.
Jin Rong had a worried face, after she broke into the room that night, she dragged Gu Qianfan out without saying a word, and then the two were alone for about a stick of incense, and then they each returned to the room with a sad brow.
Shi knew that there would definitely not be anything inappropriate between the two of them, but what they did during that incense stick was unknown, even if they forced Gu Qianfan for three days, they didn't get a word of useful information.
As for Mu Wan'er, I don't know who she learned from, but she covered her face with a white scarf, revealing only a pair of autumn eyes that seemed to be able to speak.
If the stone is like a pedestrian on the street, he doesn't know the peerless appearance under the light veil, but he grew up watching the face under the light veil, and has been obsessed with it since he was three years old, and then witnessed how that charming and perfect face grows into it.
Looking at the delicate color looming under the light veil, the posture of walking on the stone became a little strange, with a figure of eight inside, and the thighs were a little tight.
Gu Qianfan should have sensed something, stepped forward quietly, and asked in a low voice, "Senior Brother Shi, do you want us to go to Rouge Lane tonight?"
Shi rewarded the guy next to him with a big white eye, and said angrily: "You are not afraid of being discovered by Senior Sister Jin, and in a fit of anger, you will cut that thing under your crotch!"
Gu Qianfan was startled, his legs turned into an inner figure exactly like a stone, and suddenly remembered something, and immediately returned to normal, puffed up his chest, and said with a straight face: "There is pure senior brother and sister affection between us, and there is nothing else besides this." โ
Stone pouted, noncommittal.
Seeing this, Gu Qianfan immediately became anxious, and said in a low voice: "Shi, I said that Senior Sister Jin and I were just talking about cultivation that night, and there was absolutely no deviant behavior, if you dare to speculate again, be careful that I'm not welcome." โ
Although the voice was small, the anger was not small, and the frightened "little stone" instantly softened, and the stone was able to return to its normal walking posture.
He glanced at Gu Qianfan and said disapprerovingly: "What did I guess randomly? Did I say anything? โ
"You!" Gu Qianfan was extremely angry, but he was speechless.
At this time, Jin Rong ran up, she glanced at Gu Qianfan deeply, and stopped talking.
Shi smiled faintly, before leaving, Qingyang Zhenren only threw them a bag, and there were only sixteen words in it, and now after arriving in Lucheng safely, he didn't know what to do next.
So no matter how much he hated the woman in front of him before, but now that everyone is standing in the same boat, there is no need to make the relationship too stiff, especially after meeting the fat man of the Heavenly Demon Gate in Feicheng, as well as Lin Xi and the woman in black who don't know the details, it made his heart full of uneasiness.
Shi took the initiative to break the deadlock and asked, "Senior Sister Jin, what's the matter?"
Jin Rong glanced at the stone, she couldn't see the likes and dislikes, her eyes returned to Gu Qianfan, and asked softly, "Senior Brother Gu, what are we going to do this trip?" Lucheng is also here, so what's next?"
Gu Qianfan smiled awkwardly and replied, "Senior Sister Jin, I don't know about it now, but I can't think of an answer tomorrow evening." โ
"Huh?" Jin Rong looked puzzled.
The same is true for the stone, he didn't understand the meaning of Gu Qianfan's words.
Without waiting for anyone to ask, Gu Qianfan took the initiative to solve his doubts and said: "Senior Brother Shi, two junior sisters, it is the first time for you to accept the task of the sect, so it is not enough to know some things, generally speaking, when the master has a special task that needs to be completed by the disciples, he will not reveal too much information in advance, and when he arrives at the task location, wait for one or two days with peace of mind, and someone will take the initiative to contact him." โ
Stone was half-aware, and although it was his first time in contact with such an arrangement, it was not difficult to understand the reason for this practice.
It's just that he can't understand a little bit, what kind of special task needs Qingyang Zhenren to treat so solemnly, not only let the four of them go together, but also need to stay in Feicheng for three days in advance, and then go to Lucheng at night.
Suddenly, the stone realized something, and his expression couldn't help but be a little solemn.
Jin Rong didn't know whether she really understood or faked, but when she saw her, she nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "Then where are we staying tonight?"
Gu Qianfan didn't answer in a hurry, but looked at the stone and said, "Senior Brother Shi, haven't you been here to play for a while before, where do you live? Quiet or not? Why don't we stay where you lived last time." โ
Shi Shi was stunned for a moment, his face was worried, and he said: "Senior Brother Gu, the last time I lived in that place was quite quiet, but it was a little remote, I wonder if if we live in the past, will it cause the people who want to look for us to find us in the end?"
"Haha!" Gu Qianfan laughed, and then said: "Don't worry, Senior Brother Shi, although our Taiqing Sect is not as disciple as Lingyun Pavilion, but an important city like Lucheng still has a lot of eyeliner, and it is estimated that we have already been known by them when we just entered the city." โ
Stone was shocked when he heard this, and his eyes widened suddenly.
Gu Qianfan seemed to have expected it, and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Shi doesn't need to panic, because they are their own people, so they must have learned our approximate arrival time in advance, as well as the basic information of the four of us, so that they can better complete the next task! As for the other forces, it is absolutely impossible for them to know that we have entered the city so quickly." โ
"Oh, that's right!" said the stone lightly.
Since this is the case, it is not good for him to say anything more, leading the way in front, and the four of them came to an alley in less than half a stick of incense, and in front of them was an inn.
Water Joy Inn.
Shi looked at the familiar signboard in front of him and remembered the scene from the last time he came to Lucheng.
At that time, he was surrounded by Bai Xue and Zi Ling, and as soon as the two stunning women entered the city, they caused quite a stir, and later the three of them arrived at this Shuiyue Inn, but they didn't expect that there were still a large number of male animals following.
In addition, some unpleasant things happened that night, and even the subsequent conflict on the Liuhe River, as well as the interception and killing outside Lucheng, were all related to his killing of the city lord's son.
Of course, the grudge between him and Liu Dong is just a coincidence in that incident.
But it was precisely because of that coincidence that it fueled Liu Dong's distorted and perverted desire for revenge, and secondly, it directly led to the latter's death.
Shi shook his head, not wanting to think about those unpleasant things anymore, he turned his head to look at Mu Wan'er, and smiled knowingly, fortunately she covered her face with a light veil, otherwise she really didn't dare to think that there would be many animals with the lower body dominating the brain.
At that time, with Mu Wan'er's cold temperament, it is better to ignore it, the well water on both sides does not interfere with the river water, but if he draws his sword and kills one or two of him to set an example, it will not end well.
"Greetings to a few guest officers!
A familiar voice interrupted Stone's thoughts.
He looked at it, and it was the shopkeeper he saw last time he came, his skin was still dark, and his body was still as thin as before, the only difference should be that his body was missing the scars and bruises he saw last time.
The shopkeeper obviously recognized the stone as well, and showed a hint of surprise on his face, but he also had a hint of doubt, and he forgot to speak when he opened his mouth.
Shi smiled gently, and said lightly: "Xiao Hei, we meet again." โ
Xiao Hei is the name of the second child in this shop, which is the same name that Stone gave to the "Pegasus" when he delivered food in the secular courtyard.
Of course, this is definitely not the real name of the shopkeeper, but no one knows what his original name is, and no one even knows how he came here, when he suddenly appeared at the Shuiyue Inn one day, he was this swarthy and thin appearance.
At first, some people suspected that he was the illegitimate son of the shopkeeper, but later saw that he was frequently abused, and no one thought that way anymore.
And because of his external image, Xiao Hei's name was slowly implemented, and after a long time, no one cared where he came from or what his original name was.
Hearing what the person in front of him said, the last trace of doubt in Xiao Hei's heart was dispelled, but he was just about to say something, only to find that he didn't know what to call it.
Shi understood and chuckled: "I have the same surname as your shopkeeper, so you might as well call me Brother Shi, these are all my friends, you can call me big brother and big sister." โ
"Brother Shi!" Xiao Hei called respectfully, suddenly remembered something, and said: "Brother Shi, the inn has changed its shopkeeper now." โ
"Oh?" the stone sighed, and suddenly realized, only then did he understand why Xiao Hei had no signs of abuse at all, and he dared to change the shopkeeper!
So he asked, "When did the stone shopkeeper leave, where did he go, and what is the current shopkeeper's surname?"
Xiao Hei didn't have anything to hide, 1510 said: "On the third day after the Qixi Festival, the shopkeeper Shi claimed to go back to the countryside to farm, and he was still in a hurry, and the shopkeeper who took over later was surnamed Lin, and he was in the inn for a few days all year round, but Brother Shi, you came by chance, the shopkeeper Lin just came back the day before yesterday, and now he is in the inn. โ
Shi Shi's face was groaning, although he didn't know much about the former shopkeeper of the Shuiyue Inn, but presumably it was impossible for such a person to give up the comfortable life in the city, but he had to go to the countryside to farm.
Thinking of the time when the stone shopkeeper left was the third day after the Qixi Festival, it was so strange, there must be a lot of articles in it, and nine times out of ten it was inseparable from the city lord's mansion, or it could also be said that there was a certain connection with the stone.
And at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared at the door of the inn, because the light shone from the inside out, Shi and the others could not see his face clearly, only heard a reproach without anger.
"Blackie, how can you keep a guest standing outside the door!"
