Chapter 69: One-Eyed

It was a low bush that made a sound, the leaves of the tree were shaking, and Whampoa Yishou approached cautiously, and when he saw who it was, he almost didn't laugh out loud.

An old man dressed in white-washed blue clothes, with a wrinkled face was hiding in the bushes, his eyes were straight and stunned looking at a large python in front of him, he was obviously frightened by the python, his back against a bush was trembling, and the sound of Suosuo was the sound he made when he trembled.

Huangpu Yishou finally couldn't hold back and didn't laugh, this old man who knew how to enjoy himself was actually scared like this by a python, and he was like two people when he was basking in the sun.

He didn't want the old man to lose his dignity in front of others, so not only did he not laugh, but he also took out a piece of broken silver and "snapped" the head of the python.

The big python with its head shattered did not die immediately, but its body twitched desperately, struggling to die.

The body of a long-standing snake whipped the dead branches and leaves on the ground and flew all over the sky.

The old man, who was already trembling, was so frightened that he retreated again and again, but he forgot that he was leaning against a bush, and the bush blocked his retreating steps, and in a panic waved his hand to push away the thing that stopped him, but his sleeve was torn open with a long opening.

The python finally stopped struggling and stopped.

The old man was still frightened, picked up a branch and gently shook the body of the python, and when he saw that it was really dead, he gently patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing Huangpu Yishou on the side, the old man said: "What I'm most afraid of is snakes." Then he explained: "When I was a child, I was bitten by a snake and almost died. ”

As the saying goes, once you are bitten by a snake for ten years, you are afraid of the well rope, and there is still a reason why the old man is afraid of the snake.

Unexpectedly, Huangpu Yishou completely believed the old man's explanation, and said: "This is normal, I was even afraid of mice when I was a child, just because I was bitten by it once when I was a child, and it has only gotten better in the past two years." Of course, these words were comforting words, but it was Whampoa Yishou's words that moved the old man, and even his lips trembled with excitement.

These words preserved the dignity of the old man, which is equivalent to saving the old man's life.

The fact that he was so afraid of a snake made people see it, and the old man had the heart to die, but Whampoa Yishou's words made him feel that being afraid of snakes was not as motives as he imagined, and it was not a big thing.

Many things are like this, what seems important to oneself is actually insignificant in the eyes of others. Therefore, if a person has shortcomings, there is no need to deliberately hide them, because everyone will have shortcomings, and saints are no exception, let alone mortals!

The important thing is to be able to overcome your own shortcomings.

For Huangpu Yishou, who understands him so well, the old man is very grateful and appreciative. Older people are more talkative, and they tend to have different views and unique opinions.

Whampoa Yishou also liked to chat with the old man.

It didn't take long for the two to become friends.

The old man said that his surname was Shi, and because of his stubborn temper, others called him Shishi, a smelly and hard stone.

The reason why the stone went down this time was because he was tired of staying on the mountain, and wanted to go out for a walk, so he followed the others and kept going out, and when he reached the halfway point, he lost it. Who would have thought that the house leak happened to rain overnight, but he met the big python he was most afraid of, if it weren't for Huangpu Yishou, he didn't know if he could get out safely.

Huangpu Yishou comforted: "You can definitely get out safely without me." ”

Shi said confidently: "Of course I can get out safely, because I know a completely safe road." ”

Huangpu Yishou said: "Didn't you say that there will be people in all places? And an absolutely safe road? ”

Shi smiled and said, "That's what I told you, do you know how long and big this canyon is?" To lay an ambush everywhere, at least hundreds or thousands of people, do you think it is possible? ”

Huangpu Yishou said happily: "It seems that if I want to pass through the canyon smoothly this time, I have to follow my brother together, but I don't know if my brother is willing to take me with me?" ”

Stone said angrily, "If you say that again, we will no longer be friends." Don't say you saved my life, just because the two of us can talk like this, I will take you with you without you opening your mouth. If I didn't want to take you with me, I wouldn't even tell you that there was such a way. ”

Huangpu Yishou smiled and hurriedly confessed, "It's the younger brother, isn't it, here to make amends to the elder brother." ”

Shi Zhengse said: "Since we became friends after talking to each other, it would be hypocritical to be too polite." ”

Huangpu Yishou hurriedly put away his smile and said, "That's what my brother said." ”

The stone looked back and forth, left and right, and said softly, "While no one has noticed us now, hurry up and get on the road." ”

Huangpu Yishou said: "Obey the orders of the eldest brother." ”

The stone has no martial arts, and it is a little slow to walk in this kind of deep mountains and dense forests, and Huangpu Yishou is not in a hurry, and follows him step by step. As long as the stone doesn't say when to stop, Whampoa Yishou will never ask.

I followed the stones all the way, and I really didn't encounter anyone else, and I didn't encounter an ambush.

It took half a day like this, and I had already walked more than ten miles.

This seems to be very slow, but in fact, it is much faster than when Whampoa Yishou walked by himself.

When Huangpu Yishou walks alone, he must always pay attention to whether there are people around him, whether there is danger in front of him, and sometimes in order to avoid dangerous places, he has to go around a large circle. Therefore, when walking alone, it seems to walk very fast, which is much slower than walking slowly on a stone.

Following the stone, at the beginning, Huangpu Yishou had to pay attention to whether there were other dangers, but after half a day, he didn't even touch anyone, and his vigilance relaxed.

By this time, it was already getting dark, and it was already evening.

It wasn't really late in any other place, but in the middle of the forest, where there was no sunlight all day, it was almost as dark as it was altogether.

The stone was already tired of walking, and said, "We can't get out of the canyon today, let's rest for the night, and tomorrow we will have half a day." There was a cave not far in front where we could rest and we went there for a night's rest. ”

After walking half a mile, he came to a stone wall overgrown with rattans.

The rattan has covered the entire stone wall.

The stone peeled aside the rattan, revealing a swarthy hole that was a man tall.

He took out a fire fold from his bosom and hit it, and walked inside by the faint light.

I don't know how deep this cave is, and Whampoa Yishou followed the stone and walked inside.

Soon, the cave came to an end.

The stone took out an oil lamp from a crack in the cave wall and lit it.

Lights illuminate the entire grotto.

It is a stone cave with a radius of two zhang, and the inside is very dry, and there is a thick layer of hay in the corner, which must have been laid when someone was resting there.

Other than that, the hole was empty.

The stone put down the lamp and walked straight to the hay and lay down. Since no one had slept on it for a long time, a layer of dust had accumulated on it, and the fall of the stone made the dust on the hay fly. Suddenly a smell of dust filled the cavern, but the stone paid no attention to it.

With a long groan, he said, "I'll rest here tonight, and I'll be able to go tomorrow when I've nourished my spirits." After saying that, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

An old man who didn't know martial arts had been on the road for a day, and he was already too tired to do anything, and he let out a burst of snoring not long after he fell.

Huangpu Yishou shook his head with a smile, and also found a place in the corner to sit down, close his eyes and rest.

Suddenly, the sound of rattan being lifted came, and in the cave in the silent forest, the sound was also infinitely amplified, and the Huangpu Yishou who was sleeping woke up at once.

"It's finally here." A voice came from the mouth of the cave, and after saying that, he breathed a long sigh of relief, apparently not realizing that there was anyone else in the cave.

Huangpu Yishou hurriedly extinguished the oil lamp.

Suddenly, the cave was pitch black.

A faint burst of fire came from the mouth of the cave, looming like a ghost.

This ghost is getting closer and closer to Whampoa Yishou.

Whampoa Yishou doesn't know if this person is the one who is responsible for the ambush, and if there are other people at the entrance of the cave?

Whampoa Yishou's palms were already sweating.

Whoever this person is, the only way to keep the secret of this cave is to kill him!

One zhang, five feet, three feet, two feet, Huangpu Yishou pounced out like a tiger.

"Ouch!" "Bang" "Poof"

A series of voices came one after another.

"Puff" is the sound made by Huangpu Yishou, he did not pounce on the body of the adult, but pounced in the air, which is the sound of him falling to the ground.

"Ouch" is the exclamation of someone who came to the cave, because his vision was not very good, he was kicked by a stone in the hole, and his head hit a stone.

"Bang" is the sound of someone hitting their head on a stone.

Such a big movement woke up the sleeping stone, and quickly took out the fire fold in his arms and lit the oil lamp that had been extinguished.

Huangpu Yishou took advantage of the moment the fire lit up and quickly pounced on the passer.

Surprisingly, the person who came didn't dodge at all, so that the few back hands prepared by Huangpu Yishou were not used.

An earth-shattering scream like killing a pig sounded, shaking Huangpu Yishou's eardrums painfully.

The screams came from under Huangpu Yishou.

"Who is it? Who is it? Crush me! ”

Huangpu Yishou fell down a person who didn't know martial arts.

Whampoa stood up.

The stone trembled with an oil lamp and approached the man who had fallen to the ground.

"Xiucai!"

"Stinky stones!"
