Zhou Qing said: "According to what the little uncle said, even if they are hateful, they are only victims, they are afraid of those things at night, but they can't leave, they can only take medicine to numb themselves to sleep peacefully, it's really pitiful." So, who laid out such a big picture? What about those who come to patrol the night and sprinkle gold in the haze? ”

Liu Xiaohua shook her head and said, "Let's go back to the inn first." ”

Xu Sijiu heard that he wanted to go back. I almost cried. He stood at the gate of the city, refusing to move. Plucked up the courage and said, "I, I'll go back to Xiaopenglai to report the news." ”

Seeing the other people looking back at her expressionlessly, they couldn't help but feel worried, but after thinking about it, they couldn't hurt themselves because they couldn't pull their faces. Or stubbornly said very reluctantly: "Maybe the sect elder has an idea?" It's not a way for us to wait for Master Bozu here. What if Master Bozu doesn't come back, what will Linglong do? What do we do? The elders don't know we're here. ”

Liu Xiaohua said lightly: "I don't want to agree." But if you insist, then you go, if you don't listen to me, I can't help it. But I don't know how far away from Xiao Penglai is. You're alone, so be careful along the way. ”

Saying that, he left her alone, and turned his head to the inn.

Xu Sijiu stood for a while, in a dilemma, thinking that this city was really terrifying, Zhang Fengnian had no news, and Linglong had become like this, why should he accompany her to be frightened? So he gritted his teeth, turned around, and went to live outside the city.

The people in the inn were not surprised to see Liu Xiaohua and his party coming back.

There was a guy who had been waiting at the door, and as soon as he saw them, he immediately greeted them.

When Linglong saw the guy, she couldn't help but push him away and scolded: "Don't be fake!" I was killed by you! ”

He Wen'er said unfairly: "That's it, you people want to be shameless!" ”

There were a lot of people in the inn, and when they saw the quarrel here, they all turned their heads to look.

When they didn't know anything before, they didn't think anything was going on in the city. Now that I know, looking at this hypocritical face again, I feel a little frightened.

He Wen'er's character couldn't help but take a step back. The face is whitewashed.

Although Linglong is also afraid, she is a person who is afraid to death, and she wants to save face. I don't want to show it at all.

In the inn, in addition to the people in the city, there are some unknown ones, probably new guests.

Among these people, there were travelers passing by, with luggage by their side. There are people who are lost, and their faces are more frightened. In the corner sat two men dressed in bright clothes and carrying fortune-telling flags.

The banner was tall and wide, and it was inserted into the back basket, which was particularly conspicuous.

These new guests, marveling at the splendor of the golden walls here, all looked over here, probably to see what was going on.

When the man heard Linglong's words, he was not frightened, but looked puzzled, and persuaded awkwardly: "Guest, what do you say about this?" If there is something that the small shop is not doing well, if anyone offends you, you say it, and we will deal with it. He said this to Liu Xiaohua.

They ushered in the send-off, not without eyes. Early in the morning, it was clear who in this group of people was talking and counting.

Liu Xiaohua didn't speak, lowered her eyes and didn't look at him, but just glanced at Cheng Zhengzhi without a trace.

Yes? Cheng Zhengzhi scratched his head. Blankly looked at her.

Liu Xiaohua glanced at him a few times, but he didn't understand. Liu Xiaohua hated that iron could not become steel, so she secretly kicked him hard. Cheng Zhengzhi gasped in pain, lip-shaped and asked, "What are you doing!?" ”

Zhou Qing reacted, took a step forward, and said lightly to the guy: "You are very thoughtful here. We don't have anything to dislike. She's not in a good mood, so don't take it personally. ”

Although it is an apology, it is a bit condescending. As if these people are not worthy of being on an equal footing with them, and they are not worthy of letting Liu Xiaohua speak to them in person.

The guy glanced at Liu Xiaohua, saw that her expression was slightly impatient, looked outside and didn't know what she was thinking, didn't look at him, and said with a smile on his face: "It's okay, who doesn't have something to worry about." He asked Liu Xiaohua with concern: "Has the person who lent money to this little lady found it?" ”

Liu Xiaohua didn't seem to hear it.

Zhou Qing looked at her carefully, and saw that she didn't want to speak, so he took a step forward and said to the guy: "I just didn't find it, my fellow disciple is so annoyed." I don't know if your shopkeeper is there? I want to discuss with him on behalf of my uncle and ancestor, and return the money to your store first. Our disciple borrowed so much money, and the little uncle was already displeased, let alone the master uncle. When the time comes, I will go back to the mountain, and if I think about it, I am afraid that the little master and uncle will have to bear the fault of 'poor teaching'......" Speaking of this, he looked like he was speechless, and quickly stopped.

Liu Xiaohua snorted. Fingers tapped impatiently on the railing.

"It turned out that I was angry because of this." The guy sighed and sighed at the way he felt the same way. Embarrassed, he said, "That's not a coincidence." The shopkeeper is always there every day, but he is not there these days. Speaking so sincerely, no one can find fault with him.

"Really? No one had to look for him before, he was there. Now we want to see him, and he is gone. Linglong sneered, turned her head and ran upstairs.

Liu Xiaohua glanced at her and said to the guy coldly: "My nephew has an arrogant personality, and he smiled. His expression was very cold and arrogant.

After saying that, I ignored him, turned around and planned to go upstairs.

But she had only taken two steps, but the guy suddenly followed up again, and asked with a smile: "I listen to your senior brothers, sisters, and nephews, I don't know ............?" ”

"We are disciples of Xiao Penglai." Cheng Zhengzhi has come to his senses. Stopped between him and Liu Xiaohua, holding his chest out and looking extraordinary. Don't let him stand too close to Liu Xiaohua. As if he was not worthy, he said: "This is our little uncle and ancestor, and he is an immortal under Xuanyan." ”

The guy was stunned for a moment, and looking at his expression, he clearly knew Xiao Penglai. I couldn't believe it, and said, "But you guys are dressed ......."

Cheng Zhengzhi sneered: "I don't know. Of course, this is the case when you go out to practice. The Junior Uncle and the Master Ancestor took our lower-level disciples out to practice and stayed in the wasteland for several months. As he spoke, he secretly glanced at Liu Xiaohua, extremely complacent. Look at my acting skills! **No**' look.

Liu Xiaohua was tired. Lowering his eyes and not wanting to see him. Just do cold arrogance.

The guy was surprised and delighted, but also a little incredulous, as if he had been told that he had won the jackpot, and he was afraid that he was dreaming. immediately wanted to bypass Cheng Zhengzhi and go to Liu Xiaohua.

Cheng Zhengzhi unceremoniously pushed him away: "What are you doing?" ”

The guy hurriedly said, "No." I just have something to say, and I want to tell this little immortal venerable. ”

Cheng Zhengzhi looked him up and down and said, "If you have anything, just stand here and say." My little uncle can hear it. "It's a big one.

The guy hesitated, and made sure to Liu Xiaohua again, "Are you really a master disciple of Xuanyan Immortal?" ”

Zhou Qing said in disgust: "What do you mean by this? What kind of character are you, or do you have some unique magic weapon on your body, and it is worth us to lie to you. ”

The guy was a little embarrassed. But he still stubbornly said: "At the beginning, this little lady was quite approachable...... and half of the sentence was: "It doesn't look like a person of high status" did not say, but the expression was undoubtedly revealed.

There are some people in the world who always judge whether the other party has status from how well they dress and whether they are arrogant or not, and whether they are worthy of their own respect.

Liu Xiaohua had been looking out in a trance, but she didn't pay attention to anyone at this time, turned around and went upstairs.

Cheng Zhengzhi was particularly involved in the play, and hurriedly followed with a frown. The action was exaggerated to help her, as if the little eunuch was going to help Lafayette.

That's enough! Liu Xiaohua glared and motioned for him to close his claws!

Cheng Zhengzhi retracted his hand angrily. Make a puppy leg and follow her. I thought that I had never met my own talents. No one appreciates the acting.

Liu Xiaohua glanced back at Zhou Qing.

Zhou Qing understood. I make a congratulatory appearance. I left it behind.

He was originally a person with a lot of eyes, and he knew to provoke others from the time he picked disciples, and took advantage of the situation to try to find out the situation. Naturally, I also understand Liu Xiaohua's intentions better. Slightly bowed to Liu Xiaohua.

When Liu Xiaohua left, he straightened up, looked at the guy, and said unhappily: "During the trial, Master Bozu treated us equally. The little uncle followed the teacher's instructions, so he didn't want to be too ostentatious. But now, after we have finished cultivating here, the matter of the past has come to an end, so naturally there is no need to hide it. But these things have nothing to do with you. I only advise you to be careful when you speak, so as not to displease our little uncle and ancestor. Get yourself in trouble. ”

After speaking, no matter what he thought, he frowned and ordered him, "You go and prepare hot water." We're going to change our shirts. I'm going back to the mountains tomorrow. ”

And they paid no more attention to him.

When the guy thought about it, he probably thought it was the same thing.

What's the point of people deceiving him for such an insignificant figure? Besides, there are many capable people in the sect, and there are also many people with strange tempers. If you are in a good mood for a while, you will be amiable, and if you are in a bad mood for a while, you will turn your face and kill people like numbness. You can't use common sense to guess.

In this way, Zhou Qing's words seem to be reasonable.

He hurriedly ran a few steps, stretched out his hand to grab Zhou Qing, and his face showed a little stammer, "It's my stupid mouth." It's my stupid mouth. Please don't care. ”

Zhou Qing frowned and looked at his hand. A look of boredom. "We're in a hurry to wash up, if you have something to say, hurry up."

He hurriedly let go of his hand and asked urgently: "That's the case, I see, ......... in that room upstairs"

"What's wrong in the room?" Zhou Qing asked rhetorically.

"There is blood...... The windows were also shattered. The guy tentatively said, "Isn't it, what's going on?" The immortals were injured? Look him up and down.

Presumably he was cleaning up the house only to find out that something had happened upstairs. That's why I'm waiting at the door, and now I'm here to inquire about the situation.

Zhou Qing said coldly: "Do you see any injuries on our bodies?" ”

The man's eyes brightened more and more, and he quickly said, "It's me who can't speak." It's that I can't speak. The immortals are extraordinary. ”

Zhou Qing snorted coldly: "Some ghosts don't have long eyes. The little master and uncle made a small admonition. ”

He said righteously: "I see, is there a thief in your inn?" ”

The guy's eyes flickered: "What do you mean?" ”

"Somebody drugged what we were eating."

The guy was embarrassed.

Zhou Qing frowned and said to the guy, "I think you don't have this kind of guts. Those who pretend to be ghosts must be Xiao Penglai's opponents, and they learned that the little uncle went out of the mountain to make trouble on purpose. They are very capable, and it is easy to sneak into the inn and drug them. Never mind. My little uncle and uncle won't bother with you. Fix the window, or give us another room. ”

After speaking, he sneered: "You guys are also weird here, can't you find that guy, and you don't have to pay back this golden cake?" I have only seen creditors who are afraid that others will not repay their debts, and I have never seen such a trouble as repaying money. Didn't you guess who we are, and what do you want to ask for? Sending money in such a clumsy way? He sneered and said: "My little Penglai has always opened the mountain gate, and whenever the world asks for something, he has always responded to his request, is it the same as those obscene sects that covet things outside his body?" Save it. ”

After saying that, he looked like 'you can step down', glanced at the guy coldly, and turned to go upstairs. The man was both frightened and excited, and said behind him, "That's not what I wanted, I didn't mean that. ”

After walking up the corridor, Zhou Qing saw that the guy was still standing at the stairs with a complicated expression, as if he was doing some kind of psychological struggle. There were a few other guys, as soon as they saw Zhou Qing leaving, they immediately surrounded them and asked excitedly. Rejoicing and worrying.

Zhou Qing narrowed his eyes, but he didn't know.

As soon as he entered the house, Cheng Zhengzhi hurriedly asked, "How is it?" ”

"Just wait. What is going on in this city, they will tell you what is going on in a while, as if they were pouring beans. Zhou Qing took a sip of tea, and admired Liu Xiaohua a little in his expression.

Zhou Qing is not an upright person, and he doesn't think that Liu Xiaohua let others go first last night is worth mentioning. In his opinion, Liu Xiaohua's status is already there, and there is no need to do things that sacrifice oneself to aggravate one's own sense of existence. If he had been in her place, he would never have done that. Even when he wanted to go back to help Chen, it was just a helpless move, but fortunately, Xu Sijiu was sent to death.

So in his heart, Liu Xiaohua is certainly a little smart, but he is too 'good'.

But Liu Xiaohua's move today, acting so skillfully, and turning his mind so fast, made him impressed. I felt that I had underestimated her before. I thought that when it came to calculating people, Liu Xiaohua was much smarter than herself. Even her overly heroic actions last night were a little pleasing to the eye, thinking that 'she must have a plan to do this', and her methods are not much more clever than people like Xu Sijiu. Looking at Liu Xiaohua again, there is a little sympathy.

With her calculations, if the other party is not just a simple victim, she can dispel the other party's suspicions and pretend to be completely unaware, saving the other party from being vigilant and disadvantageous to everyone. Second, to report the name of Xiao Penglai, if they are really innocent, they just want to get out, so they will naturally come to the door and send the news in vain.

That's what human nature is.

If you go to inquire in a hurry, people will inevitably have doubts, and they may not be willing to tell you. I always feel that no matter what it is that is automatically delivered to the door, it is naturally a little suspicious and has ulterior motives.

You have to ask for it yourself to be trustworthy.

Now, just wait for the other party to come to the door
