Chapter 20: The Tip of the Iceberg
Su Mu gasped......
savored the words of Huan Qi just now......
It's hard to calm your mind......
At this time, I suddenly felt a ghostly aura behind me......
Su Mu quickly turned around and used his spiritual power to resist......
But what appeared in front of me ......
But it's a slender figure......
The two looked at each other......
Speechless for a moment......
"You...... How did it come? ”
Su Mu pointed lightly to the house:
"What's the matter...... Let's go inside and talk......"
Su Mu walked with each step, and he was actually only a dozen steps close to the door of the house, but he felt a piercing pain every step he took......
Su Mu gritted his teeth and opened the door......
The first time he saw Su Mu, he saw Fu Qian moving freely behind him......
My mind is full of doubts......
Fu Qian looked at Shang Lu's expression, of course she understood what he was thinking, but now was really not the time to say, so she said softly:
"Hello, shopkeeper, long time no see...... I'll explain to you when I get back to this, what kind of medicine is there in the dart game now, please take it......"
"Good! Good! I'll go! Shang Lu stood up......
"By the way, there are also bandages, take them all together...... Fleur added......
"Hmm!"
A person who is not confused in his old age is so commanded by a little girl, but Shang Lu does not feel a trace of displeasure at all......
She was there to save Su Mu......
Su Mu was injured......
It's also for the dart game......
After tonight......
Shang Lu finally understood that Su Mu had done his best for the sake of this Lingdu dart game......
Shang Lu shook his head with emotion in the courtyard and walked towards the pharmacy......
And at this time in the house, Su Mu turned around and looked at Fuqian:
"Although it is said that it is the next day, you ...... It's so early......"
"Don't move...... Fleur pointed to the bed on the side, "Take off your shirt and lie on your stomach......"
"Huh?" Su Mu's eyes widened, "What are you doing...... No...... No need to ......"
"Really?" Fu Qian raised her eyebrows and asked, "I can tell you that the claws of the tiger and the sword ghost are fed with poison, if you are willing to wait until dawn, you can wait, when the doctor comes, I am not sure how deep the poison will invade, but I know that they can't match you with an antidote at once......"
Su Mu thought about it, what Fu Qian said did make some sense, the knife wound was fine, but poisoning was not a trivial matter, so he slowly untied his clothes:
"That...... Well...... My fist and foot cultivation is relatively poor...... So ......"
Fu Qian paused for a moment, and suddenly sneered:
"Hey! You're poisoned, I'll treat you, and you still care about this at this time...... Get down ......"
"Hmm......" Su Mu gritted his teeth and finally lay down......
"I'm really convinced of you...... Fu Qian recalled Su Mu's words just now, and shook her head with a smile, "No wonder the old man just now said that you were not normal......
Su Mu raised his hand to brighten up the lights a little:
"Strange old man?"
"Elder Huan, ......"
"Ah...... When did you come? You know even when he says I'm not normal......"
"I'm here early...... Fluff gently wiped the blood around the wound for him, "I've been here since they were still outside the hospital......"
"Huh?"
"I ask you ......"
Fleur just wanted to ask......
The wooden door opens......
Shang Lu came in with two boxes, and before Fu Qian could speak, Shang Lu went outside to fetch a bucket of water and bring a basin......
"That ......" Fu Qian paused, "Shopkeeper Shang, it's not too early, you go back and rest first, just leave the matter here to me, as for the rest, we can talk slowly tomorrow......"
"Well, it's okay......" Shang Lu nodded, glanced at the two of them again, and then went out......
Fu Qian looked at the bottles and cans in the small boxes with the lamp, selected a few, and picked out a few plasters, which didn't seem to be very satisfied, mixed with the water temperature, mixed with some water, and slowly reconciled......
"I'll make do with it first, and I'll buy you a few more medicines tomorrow......"
"Thank you......" Su Mu said gratefully......
"Don't thank me...... Fleur said as she adjusted her medicine, "I have to thank you for not killing for the past two days...... Alas, you're right, I've been in the deep mansion compound for too long, and I don't know too many things...... Why didn't you tell me you were so good?! ”
"Is there anything to say about that?" Su Mu shook his head, "There are people who are better than me...... I'm just a little famous for exorcism, but at the time I said I was Su Mu, and when you didn't know, I felt pretty good......"
"What does it feel good about?"
"Yes...... To be so close to someone from the underworld...... Talk and chat...... It's good......" Su Mu said sincerely......
"Don't you have any friends from the underworld?" Fleur asked softly......
"It's not ......" Su Mu shook his head, "You...... Don't even ask...... What happened to you? ”
Fu Qian paused and shook her head:
"No...... I don't care about ......"
Then he continued with the work at hand......
"Then why are you here?"
Su Mu asked this question that he had never understood......
Fu Qian looked at Su Mu and took a deep breath:
"I just...... When I was a child, I happened to read some books on the human world, so I longed for all kinds of emotions in the world, whether it was family, friendship, or ...... Love ......"
Fleur sighed lightly:
"And because of some things, I ran out of the underworld, and I happened to come here, I didn't understand anything at that time, fortunately I was taken in by the Lin Mansion and became Miss's maid, although I have lived a very ordinary life every day over the years, and sometimes I will be very tired and boring, but I can realize that Master Lin is very good to me, and Miss has really treated me as a sister over the years, I am very content...... Especially the Chinese New Year, I will never forget that feeling, I can really remember every year I spent here......"
Su Mu looked back at Fuqian's expression at this time, and smiled slightly from the bottom of his heart, but it touched the wound......
"Alas, let's not talk about this for now, you get on the stomach quickly, I'll give you medicine......"
"Oh......" Su Mu turned his face towards the pillow, Fu Qian dipped in the ointment, and when the wound was felt, Su Mu shook unconsciously......
"How?" Fu Qian asked with concern......
"It's kind of ...... It hurts ......."
"Well, bear with me......"
"Hmm......" Su Mu gritted his teeth, and the ointment was applied to the heart, which was a kind of pain at that time......
Endure it for a while......
It's a little cooler......
It's a lot more comfortable......
"Bear with me a little longer......" Fleur said softly......
Su Mu nodded again......
A cup of tea......
Fu Qian dressed Su Mu with the wound medicine, and slowly bandaged him:
I said...... It's the first time I've seen a hero like you...... I'm afraid of pain when dressing the medicine......"
"Doesn't it hurt if the hero dresses the medicine?"
"They don't say anything if they hurt......"
"Not to mention that they hurt too......"
Fu Qian smiled and nodded:
"Good, good...... I'm not very professional in this bandage, you can go down first, and ask Shang Lu to find a doctor during the day......"
"Good...... Thank you ......."
"Don't thank me!"
Fu Qian smiled, turned her head to find something to do, just in time not to face Su Mu, Su Mu quickly got up and got dressed, it was indeed much better......
"Alright...... Then I'll go out first, you can rest well......"
"Huh? Where are you going? Su Mu suddenly asked......
"You just take care of your injuries, don't move, I'll go sleep outside, Yunxing has suffered such a big setback, he won't come tonight......"
Su Mu looked at Fu Qian and smiled slightly:
"Come, come......"
"Huh?"
"I'll take that thing out for you......"
"What?" Fu Qian paused for a moment, and then remembered that it was the parasitic doll that Yu Zhi planted on his body, "Ah, don't worry, now you recuperate from your injuries first......"
"Come here...... Su Mu raised his hand and grabbed Fuqian's arm, pulling her to bend her knees and squat on the side of the bed......
"I need ...... What to do? Fleur asked softly......
"Hmm...... I took off my shirt and ......," Su Mu said seriously......
"What?!" Fu Qian immediately clasped her hands around her shoulders and widened her eyes, "Really? ”
"Haha, teasing you...... Relaxing......"
Su Mu reached through her long hair, and gently pressed her fingers down her neck......
Fleur felt a chill all over her body......
Some......
Su Mu stopped moving......
"What are you......" Fleur asked softly......
"Ah, warm hands......"
"You!"
"Shh......h
Su Mu closed his eyes and recited the mantra silently, Fu Qian gradually felt a burst of warmth from his fingers, gradually spread throughout his body, and finally converged to Su Mu's fingertips, and then, along Su Mu's hand, a white paper figure was pinched out......
Fleur raised her hand and held her hair, looking back......
Pieces of paper flutter and ......
It seems to dissipate at any moment......
Su Mu let go of his fingers, and the piece of paper drilled out through the narrow slit of the window......
"Where did it go? Why not ruin it? ”
"It's gone back to find its master......" Su Mu said, "I destroyed it, won't Yu Zhi find out that you are still alive?" ”
"I also want to ask, why did you create a fake me for Yu Zhi to kill?"
"Because ......," Su Mu thought for a while, "I went to help you get something in the morning, didn't you pass me to the Yunxing Dart Bureau?" ”
"Hmm...... I'm sorry......" Flissley whispered, "I really thought of you as an enemy at the time......"
"It's okay...... Su Mu said, "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have known in advance that Yu Zhi was going to attack the dart game in a big way tonight, if I hadn't set up those defenses in advance, the loss would have been even greater tonight, except for my master, who might have withstood so many evil ghosts and fierce spirits at once......"
Fleur nodded slowly......
"In the morning, I also heard that the people who became the leaders of the sect by them had murderous intentions towards you, saying that you were also using them, but they couldn't kill you directly, so I intercepted you, and tonight you can borrow my hand or blame me for killing you......"
Fu Qian clenched her fists tightly, and Su Mu continued softly:
"I think you may still be in danger in the future, so I made a fake you and let them kill them, and they won't pester you anymore, I pretend to be invincible, and I also want to know what method Yu Zhi uses to control you, I'm afraid that if I kill him directly, I won't be able to save you......"
Fu Qian felt a feeling of emotion in her heart, and then looked at the knife wounds under his ribs, she was even more apologetic, and took Su Mu's hand:
"I'm really sorry you did so much for me and hurt me ......"
"None of this is ......" Feeling the warmth in his hand, Su Mu hurriedly shook his head, "Really, in fact, I think there is a lot I think, I see that you are looking forward to returning to the Lin Mansion again, and I also know the friendship between you and Miss Lin, but it is really dangerous to go back, I thought that my ability was okay, so I planned to use my own little Taoism to completely solve the Yunxing Dart Game, and then let you go back with peace of mind, in fact, I still thought so when I played with Yu Zhi tonight, and I was even very confident that it would be solved in a month at most, and the result was ......"
Su Mu shook his head with a wry smile, and let go of Fu Qian's hand very lightly:
"When I saw his master tonight, I realized that I was really short-sighted, arrogant and ridiculous......"
"No...... Fu Qian quickly shook her head, "Didn't the strange old man say it too?" At your current age, it's already very good to have this kind of cultivation! Actually, I was really worried about your ......."
"Worried about me?"
"Well, that's when you played tricks with the weird old man......" Fu Qian said distressedly......
He ...... Who is it? ”
"Actually, I don't know his exact background......" Fleur shook her head a little apologetically, "but I know...... He is in the top 100 of the stars...... Didn't your master say anything about him? ”
Speaking of this, Su Mu stared for a moment and shook his head......
"No, it's strange to me too, he has a Soul Eater...... My master never even told me his name......"
"Your master must be afraid that you will go to him, there is danger......"
"Then ......" Su Mu looked at Fu Qian suspiciously, "My master...... I even called him a friend......"
Hearing this, Fu Qian paused:
"Can't humans and ghosts be friends?"
"No, no, no......" Su Mu hurriedly waved his hand, "No, you are not as guilty as him, do you know what the Soul Eater Banner does?" ”
Flirt looked at him with a frown......
"Let me tell you, the soul eater can be reincarnated in the soul for cultivation, the dead can be reincarnated, but it is sucked away by the flag, and as soon as the hour passes, it becomes a lonely soul, and the person who holds the flag instigates the lonely soul, as long as he can suck a living soul for him, he can be reincarnated, so that these lonely souls will swarm out every time they encounter a war, helping the person who holds the flag to take the soul of a person, but it is impossible for him to put it into reincarnation after returning, and from this cycle, the power of the soul eater flag is getting stronger and greater......"
After Su Mu finished speaking, he looked at Fuqian, and Fuqian raised her eyebrows:
"Are you ...... Explain it to me? ”
"yes......" Su Mu nodded. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"It's not like I don't know anything!" Fleur said loudly, "Even if I don't understand anything! I know that, too! After all, this is the most valuable ghost weapon! ”
"The most valuable?" Su Mu frowned lightly, "The Soul Devouring Banner can hurt people, but compared to the others, its power is not very powerful......"
Fu Qian shook her head, and her eyes widened suddenly:
"I seem to ...... I know why your master calls him a friend! ”
"Huh? Why? Su Mu asked......
"Isn't your master also an exorcist?"
"yes!"
"Hasn't he been looking for a ghost weapon?"
"Hmm!"
"Do you remember what the strange old man said?"
"...... said What words? ”
"He said it several times, he was old...... When it decays, you have to pass on the ghost weapon to your apprentice or something......"
"Well, remember ......"
"Actually, as long as we suck the soul, we will have a much longer lifespan than you......" Fu Qian said softly, "Look at the appearance of Huan Protector...... He said that he is more than 20 years older than your master, and now he is really an old man in his last years......"
"You...... You mean...... "Su Mu gradually understood......
"You know why the Soul Eater Banner is the most valuable ghost weapon...... "Fu Qi took a breath, "he is the ...... that can make the wielder immortal."
Su Mu opened his mouth wide and couldn't close it for a long time:
"That'...... Kanzaki ...... Is it ...... to be so old?"
"He must have agreed with your master for something...... Fu Qian nodded, "Huan Protector no longer uses the Dementor Banner to capture people's souls, and in order to maintain the power of the Dementor Banner, he no longer uses the Banner to extend his life......"
"That's ...... Master is equivalent to sealing this ghost weapon......"
"Yes...... Huan Protector is very trustworthy, and even now that your master is deceased, he still fulfills this promise......"
"That's why ......" Su Mu's expression was a little gloomy, "Master will call him a friend......
"Oh......" Fleur seemed to understand something, "so that's why people call him the weird old man......"
Su Mu nodded and asked again:
"That Huan Qi's martial arts, is it the highest in the Yunxing Dart Bureau?"
Fu Qian exhaled, looked at Su Mu's eyes, and shook his head:
"You must not have seen the Yunxing Sect Leader when you went to the Yunxing Dart Bureau in the morning, the actual master of the Yunxing Dart Bureau, right?"
Su Mu shook his head......
"Broken Soul Cangxingzi...... Twenty-two on the list......"
Hearing this name, Su Mu sighed deeply......
"Actually, besides him......" Fu Qian said softly, "there is now a Dharma protector in the dart game, Sha Teng, who is short-tempered, extremely belligerent by nature, but extremely skilled, I think he is now on par with the strange old man......"
"These three ...... It's really not easy to deal with......" Su Mu nodded......
"And ......"
"And?"
Fu Qian looked at Su Mu's expression and smiled slightly:
"Do you think that the Yunxing Sect only has these people in the dart game?" Fu Qian shook her head, "In the underworld, there is Cang Xingzi's sworn brother, who is the chief secretary, there is no name in the world, the underworld calls him 'Hui', in charge of the various departments of the Yunxing Sect in the underworld, and there are twelve 'spirits' under his hands, each performing his own duties, and governing the religion is peaceful, that is, they send those ghosts to the world." Also, there are a few people with Yu Zhi's skills, both in the headquarters and branches, so I won't mention it......"
"Such a powerful ......"
Seeing Su Mu's increasingly solemn expression, Fu Qian patted him on the shoulder:
"You can rest assured...... They're not here to deal with your Lingdu Dart Bureau...... "It's just what Cang Xingzi wants, and it just happens to be available here, and their target is the number one gang in the Central Plains Green Forest: the Xiaoyao Forest." Of course, after all, now that Xiaoyao Lin has an old man in charge, and there are so many hall masters, Yunxing doesn't dare to confront it directly, in addition to improving himself, he has also been attracting bandits from all sides to accumulate strength......"
"Alas......" Su Mu sighed, "Now that I think about it, I'm really a little scared......"
"So I never dreamed that you would come back unscathed...... "It turns out that you have already left a way out for yourself, and I admire your ......"
Su Mu was a little distracted and nodded......
