39.(XXXIX)
Hu Xiaodie wears an aqua blue gauze skirt, standing on the ridge of the roof like Tarzan. The breeze swept through her long hair, and also stirred the corners of her skirt, and her clothes fluttered. She grabbed Tang Yuyi's ear with one hand and waved her hand at Su Muxian in response.
"Don't just wave your hand, let me go first." Tang Yuyi muttered beside her.
"It's not like you were cheap." Hu Xiaodie glared at him, then pulled him to jump off the roof and landed steadily in front of Su Muxian.
"Shopkeeper Su, this is the guy who hit you with a stone before." Hu Xiaodie pulled Tang Yuyi in front of him and explained for him, "He just owes his hands and doesn't use his strength, so he shouldn't hurt you, right?" ”
She asked cautiously, and her words revealed her protection of Tang Yuyi.
Su Muxian originally had nothing to do, just as a joke, and didn't take it to heart at all, and shook his head when he heard the words. Looking at the slightly intimate behavior of the two of them, her heart moved slightly, and her eyes flashed involuntarily.
"You two ......"
She originally wanted to ask about the relationship between the two, Tang Yuyi was eager to take a detour when he saw Hu Xiaodie, but now it seems that the relationship has eased a lot, and even he is still taking the initiative to get close to Hu Xiaodie, I don't know what happened in the days they left, it should be very interesting to think about it.
However, this idea was once in her mind and she gave up, she thought about it, changed the question and asked, "How do you know that I am in Wucang Mountain?" ”
They couldn't have sent someone to follow her all the way, and she didn't leave any marks along the way, how could they find her so accurately?
"Because the person we're looking for is in Kyoto." Tang Yuyi interjected, "I planned to go to Kyoto before, and I passed by Wucang Mountain on the way, and it happened that Jiang Yuanzhong sent someone to inform us that Shopkeeper Su was here, so he turned around." ”
Sure enough, there is Jiang Yuanzhong's handiwork in this.
At that time, he said that when Hu Xiaodie and they were rushing to Wucang Mountain, she was still thinking about how there could be such a coincidence, but now it seems that it was just his intentional arrangement.
The three of them stood in front of Xiao Qinglin's wooden house and chatted, although the partition wall may not have ears, but after all, there are people inside, and it is not very convenient to speak. While talking to Hu Xiaodie, Su Muxian led them to the forest.
He asked, "Who are you looking for?" ”
Thinking of the letter sent to the inn by someone after Hu Xiaodie left, Su Muxian paused thoughtfully and asked, "Is it Miss Hu, your enemy?" ”
She vaguely remembered that after Hu Xiaodie left the inn, Jiang Yuanzhong said that her biological father died unknown, and the reason why Hu Xiaodie left was most likely to investigate the cause of her father's death.
Hu Xiaodie didn't know why she knew, so she was slightly stunned, lowered her eyes and replied, "Sort of...... To be precise, I'm looking for my father's killer. ”
“…… Condolences. ”
"It doesn't matter." Hu Xiaodie shook her head slightly, "It's been so long, I'm fine." ”
Su Muxian nodded his head, only feeling that he had said the wrong thing and caused others to be sad.
I don't know if she thinks she is very reliable, or if she just needs someone to talk to, Hu Xiaodie left Tang Yuyi and Su Muxian and walked a few steps deeper into the forest, and then told her what happened after she left the inn.
At that time, the sword conference was about to be held, and she suddenly received a message from her master, saying that she had something to see her. Although Hu Xiaodie knew the true relationship between herself and her master, the two had been together as master and apprentice for a long time, and they had more respect for the master, so after receiving the letter, they immediately left the inn and went to the suburbs of the long pavilion mentioned in the master's letter.
The sky was dark, and the dark clouds were as thick as thick ink on the horizon. The woman in white with a bamboo hat stood in the pavilion with her hands in her hands, the wind blowing her sleeves and hunting, but she stood still, not even the slightest change in her expression.
It wasn't until she heard the panting behind her that she slowly turned around.
"A quarter of an hour late." She whispered.
Hu Xiaodie was about to admit her mistake and wait for punishment, but she waved her hand and said, "That's it, it's just a trivial matter, and it doesn't matter." ”
Hu Xiaodie couldn't figure out what she was thinking, lowered her head and sneaked a glance at her with her spare eyes, and asked cautiously, "I don't know what the master is looking for me?" ”
The woman in white turned around and looked at the sky for a long time before finally saying in a deep voice, "I haven't told you all these years, but Fluttershy, you'...... You should know who your biological father is, right? ”
Hu Xiaodie still knew who her biological parents were, but she didn't know why Master asked, so she had to suppress her curiosity and patiently replied, "I know some." ”
She followed her father's surname, and it happened that the powerful people with the surname Hu in the world could be counted on one hand, and after a little elimination, the final conclusion was naturally self-evident.
Southern Sword Saint Hu Xiangyu, her biological father.
But Hu Xiaodie didn't understand why her master didn't mention it early or late, why did he mention it at this time, there was no reason to hide it for so long, and suddenly he decided to tell her the truth, right?
Hu Xiaodie's curiosity was tightly pinched, and she didn't dare to say more, so she had to bow her head and listen carefully.
I only heard the woman in white slowly exhale a breath and said in a deep voice: "Your biological father, Hu Xiangyu is dead." ”
……
“…… Later, Master asked me to investigate the cause of my father's death, and during my investigation, I found the shadow of the Bloody Clothes Gate, and I accidentally suffered a loss, which led to the letter that was sent to the inn later. Hu Xiaodie explained.
After speaking, she smiled a little self-deprecatingly and said, "It's funny to think about it, my father and I didn't meet a few times when we were alive, but I still feel sad in my heart when I know that he died suddenly." ”
"The human heart is made of meat, so it is natural to feel sad." Su Muxian said, "Blood kinship is inherently inseparable. ”
"Who's to say it isn't." Hu Xiaodie smiled, "But it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise, at least the settlement between me and Yu Yi is solved." ”
She didn't say what the specific knot was, and Su Muxian was embarrassed to ask, but the two did get along well now, and it seemed that it should be a good thing.
"Miss Hu, you said that your enemy is related to the Bloody Clothes Gate, and now you are coming in the direction of Kyoto, could it be that the people from the Bloody Clothes Gate are also in the capital?" Su Muxian changed the subject.
Hu Xiaodie bowed slightly: "I followed the traces of that person all the way to be sure." As for why that man came to Kyoto......"
She glanced around twice, and saw that there was no outsider, so she whispered in Su Muxian's ear: "I suspect that that person, and even the entire bloody cloth gate behind it, may be related to the royal family." ”
Associated with the royal family......
Su Muxian's expression was solemn, and he immediately looked around, and whispered, "Be careful in everything." ”
"I'm measured." Hu Xiaodie smiled, skipped this matter and didn't mention it again, and took Su Muxian's hand and walked in the direction he came.
Maybe it's because she's been standing for a long time, or maybe she's eating less and being hungry, Su Muxian always feels weak when she walks side by side with her. As soon as she stepped on a section of moss-covered crosswood under her feet, before she could react, an unspeakable pain swept through her whole body in an instant.
She fell softly and inertly in front of her, and before she fell into darkness completely, she heard Tang Yuyi's voice from a distance.
"What did you say, why did you go for so long...... Huh? What's wrong with Shopkeeper Su? ”
