Chapter 31, Ink Rain
The three of them arrived at the door of the blacksmith shop in the west of the city, but this place was not as imagined as before, there should have been some iron-making tools and iron-making stoves here, but now they were all gone, except for some large utensils left in a disorderly manner, and the curtains were also covered very casually, and it seemed that the entire blacksmith shop had been abandoned.
"What's going on?" The three of them glanced at each other, and they all saw that something was wrong in each other's eyes, could it be that they pounced? Old Man Mei's family has already left?
So Chu Haoge shouted at the door and inside: "Master Mei? Uncle Li? (Hei Tieshou's surname is Li, which was mentioned before.) )”
There was no sound inside, and Chu Haoge continued to shout: "Is there anyone inside?" ”
There is no doubt that there is no response in the slightest, it seems that not only Old Man Mei and Black Iron Hand have left, but that Xiao Kui should also have been taken away.
Jiuli Qiantaro walked in very casually, touched the casually covered curtain in the iron-striking shop, and looked carefully in front of him, there was really a lot of dust, Jiuli Qiantaro frowned, it didn't look like he had walked in the past few days, and it had already fallen dust.
Jiu Li Qianyu shook her head and a feeling of weakness came up, it seemed that she was destined to be disappointed, although they already knew that Old Man Mei would know the location of the Dust Killing Sword, but this old man had already run away, and the greater the so-called hope, the greater the disappointment.
In this way, Jiu Li Qianyu felt that she was once only one step away from finding the Dust Killing Sword, but she didn't know at that time that the news of the Killing Dust Sword had slipped past her, and this important thing could have been in her pocket, but now it had become out of reach The feeling made her very depressed.
She looked at Chu Haoge on the side, and was still shouting Old Man Mei and Uncle Li happily, although there was no sound in it.
She wanted to make a noise to stop her, but someone was one step ahead of him, and a burly man walked over, and it seemed that the neighbor of the family was disturbed by Chu Haoge.
"Hey." The man stepped forward and said very unfriendly: "Where did you come from, what time is it?" What the fuck are you calling here? The dolls scare you. ”
Chu Haoge looked back, there was a burst of anger in his heart, but looking at the sky, it was really not early, he didn't blame people for shouting here so late, he looked at this man, after all, he was the first to lose, and it was not good to collide with him, so he had to accompany a smile, and said very apologetically: "This old brother, blame me for this, I'll accompany you." ”
The burly man was stunned at first when he saw Chu Haoge's reaction, don't look at him to be strong, but how dare he come, two of these three people are armed with weapons, he is afraid of cutting no matter how strong he looks, what about the pig, don't you lie down with a knife?
If it weren't for the children in the family who were so noisy that they cried, how could he have come out like this? It's better to have more than one thing, it's better to have less.
Seeing that Chu Haoge didn't glare at him, he also breathed a sigh of relief, his tone became much calmer, and said, "Hey, you young man is quite sensible, my brother spoke a little rushed just now, don't take it to heart." With that, he walked up to Chu Haoge and asked, "What, are you here to find this family?" ”
Seeing that this man was blowing his beard and glaring a moment ago, but now his tone was very flat, like a friend who had known him for a long time, Murong didn't understand it very much.
In fact, it is very simple, two people walk opposite each other, both of them take a step forward with their necks tilted, the eight layers are about to collide, and conflicts will inevitably break out due to anger, and only one person will retreat, and the contradiction will be resolved into invisible.
With Chu Haoge's strength at this time, he was naturally not afraid of this burly man, and even said unceremoniously that he could easily kill this person without pulling out the Starlight Sword, but if he bullied others just because of his strength, then what was the difference between him and the demon?
Giving in to those who are weaker than oneself is the real strong.
"Ugh." Chu Haoge shook his head and said with a bitter face: "Brother, you don't know, we traveled thousands of miles to Luoyang City just to visit old friends, but I didn't expect it to come to nothing. ”
When the burly man heard Chu Haoge say this, he only felt a little adrift, traveling thousands of miles? Two of these three people are girls, so they are not afraid of encountering thieves and bandits? However, he could also understand his feelings that he couldn't find anyone, and he said to Chu Haoge: "Oh, then you're late, this family has been gone for two months." ”
"Two months?" Chu Haoge was stunned, so not long after they left Luoyang City, the family moved away? He hurriedly asked, "Then do you know where the family went?" ”
"This ......" The burly man shook his head, frowned and said, "I really don't know this, this family has a rather eccentric temperament, and they rarely talk to our neighbors." ”
"That's right." Chu Haoge nodded and said to the burly man, "Thank you, brother." ”
"Nothing, I didn't help much." Then the burly man said goodbye to him and went back to the house.
He then looked at Jiuli Qiantaro, looking for the Dust Killing Sword was after all a matter of the Jiuli Clan, and now that the clue was broken, he should ask Jiuli Qiantaro what he planned to do next.
Jiu Li Qianyu frowned and pondered for a long time, then suddenly turned his head to look at Chu Haoge and said, "Young Master Chu, don't you think it's a little strange? With that, she approached Chu Haoge.
"What's weird?" Chu Haoge was puzzled and asked.
"The old master's name." Jiu Li Qiantaro said.
"Name." Chu Haoge frowned, not understanding what she meant, but Murong Xiaoyan on the side repeated: "Friend Mei...... Mei Youren...... No one? ”
Yes, this name seems to tell them that there is no such person at all, although this person is real, but this name should be a pseudonym, how can anyone call such a name?
So, then this old man Mei is deliberately avoiding them? Old man Mei must have known that Jiuli Qiantaro was a member of the Jiuli clan through the introduction before, so he naturally wanted to hide, but they didn't expect that this old man would not hesitate to change his name in order to avoid them, and even put aside his family's property.
The three of them glanced at each other, and they all sighed in unison, especially Jiuli Qiantaro, shook their heads, and sighed in their hearts, it can really be said that it is really a creation and a trick.
Chu Haoge said: "Otherwise, let's go to Buzhou Mountain again and ask where the old man Ying Long Shenmei is." ”
Jiuli Qiantaro waved his hand when he heard this, and said: "Providence is like this, it seems that I have nothing to do with the dust." After a while, he said: "Besides, God Ying Long has already said that he can deceive the heavens, so it is naturally useless to go again." ”
Yes, since he can deceive the heavens, I'm afraid that he won't be able to let Ying Long count it anymore.
"But......" Chu Haoge was about to say something, but he felt that a drop of water had fallen, and he took back what he was going to say, and said in surprise: "It's raining?" ”
"Hmm." Murong also felt it, and she complained and said, "This weather is really fickle, why is there no sign at all?" ”
"It's weird." Chu Haoge also frowned, "It shouldn't be the season of showers at this time, what's going on?" ”
At this time, the three of them looked back, and the burly man from before came out again, at this time he was holding an umbrella in his hand and an umbrella in the other hand, and walked towards the three of them.
The man who walked to the front handed the umbrella in his hand to Chu Haoge and said, "Young man, this rain is coming quickly, and it will go quickly, come here to avoid it." ”
Chu Haoge's heart was moved, he really didn't expect that this burly man had a rough appearance, but he was very warm-hearted, and he actually sent them an umbrella when he saw the rain.
Chu Haoge took the umbrella very gratefully and handed it to Murong behind him, he can't let the two girls get drenched by a man.
Murong nodded, and walked to Jiuli Qiantaro's side, and was about to open the umbrella, but was stopped by Jiuli Qiantaro reaching out.
Chu Haoge and Murong and even the man on the side were stunned, what does Jiuli Qiantaro mean, could it be that he likes to be caught in the rain?
Jiuli Qiantaro looked at Chu Haoge and the others, and then looked at the burly man, frowned and groaned: "This rain is not right. ”
Her words made the burly man thunder enough, what's wrong with the rain? That's all decided by God, looking at this girl again, it seems that she has some kind of delusional disease, thinking of this, he really sighed a little for Chu Haoge, this is going out with such a person, I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble.
"Isn't that right?" Chu Haoge was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"The rain is mixed with spiritual power fluctuations, I'm afraid it's a spell cast by someone." Jiu Li Qiantaro didn't care if there was anyone else next to him, so he said.
His words almost amused the burly man, what he said was spiritual power and magic, and his heart said why don't you go to heaven?
This time he was sure in his heart that this girl must be a little abnormal, maybe she was fantasizing that she was a fairy at this moment, but it was always inappropriate to see her standing there, so he said: "Girl, look, let's go to the side and avoid it, it will be bad if it rains for a while, if it catches the wind cold." ”
Jiu Li Qiantaro looked at the burly man who was kind and comforting on the side, and only said two words: "It's okay." ”
Chu Haoge heard what Jiuli Qiantaro said, and hurriedly held the Xingmang Sword behind him, Murong also quickly reached out to grab his whip knife, and made preparations for battle, Chu Haoge did not forget to say to the burly man on the side: "Brother, you should be careful yourself." ”
"I ......" This time the burly man has a black line on his face, and his heart says that this girl is crazy, why are these two people together? A companion?
This kind of person he hasn't seen before, some young people don't know where they heard about the legend of the hero and the immortal master, so they fantasize about how they are, these three people are quite professional, this young man and the girl with the whip knife are real guys, he also saw a young man a few years younger than these three people last time holding a broom and saying that he was Zhao Zilong.
"I said, don't ...... three," he approached the three of them, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, these three people were wet from the rain, but when he looked closely, the clothes of the three were dyed black.
The rain was very thin, and the four of them didn't notice that the rain was actually black for a while, until the light clothes worn by Jiu Li Qiantaro were dyed with ink, and they realized that the rain was actually black.
Chu Haoge and the three of them hurriedly looked at their clothes, as if they had been splashed with ink, and reached forward to catch the rainwater, which was really the same as ink.
"What's going on?" Chu Haoge was stunned, who was making trouble? Even if you know how to do sorcery, you won't be idle enough to play tricks on people.
The burly man looked at the clothes of the three of them with a face, his eyes almost fell out, and he reached out to catch the rain, and when he looked closely, it was really black, "This is really strange." "He's lived so long, and it's the first time he's seen ink in the sky.
"Who is it?" Chu Haoge subconsciously shouted and pulled out the Xingmang Sword.
This time, the burly man didn't think Chu Haoge was arguing, because it was the first time he had seen such a strange situation, and at this time, he felt that he had encountered a monster.
Seeing that there was no sound, Chu Haoge closed his eyes and "looked" with his senses where the troublemaker was, and soon, he really saw it, he saw through the walls, and even saw everyone's house.
One family was eating, one family had a man reading with a candle, another family was peeking through the crack in the door, and another family was ...... Seeing this, he hurriedly looked away, and his face turned red as if he had been slapped more than a dozen times.
Soon he noticed that there seemed to be a man standing on the roof behind them, and exclaimed, "There it is." As he spoke, he turned abruptly and looked at the roof.
Murong, Jiuli Qiantaro and the burly man also turned around and looked, and they couldn't help but be surprised, there were really people.
The burly man was a little incredulous when he saw that the man was standing lightly on the roof, he rubbed his eyes, and looked closely, and the man was really there, as if he had merged with the roof.
Suddenly, the ink raindrops grew bigger, from goose feathers to bean-sized droplets.
Chu Haoge felt that this ink-like rain was not just a prank, I was afraid that it was for another purpose, if they didn't do it, I was afraid that they would be in trouble, he looked at Jiuli Qiantaro and said, "Jiuli girl." ”
Jiu Li Qiantaro nodded, comprehended, and quickly pinched a trick in his hand, if the water droplets floated in the air, in an instant, the blue light flashed, and a water curtain wrapped the four of them in it.
"Huh?!" The burly man was stunned, it was just incredible, this girl actually knew magic, could it be that she was really a fairy?
He even felt that he was dreaming, and pinched himself hard, trying to wake himself up, but it hurt so much.
But at this time, none of the three of them could care about explaining anything to the burly man, because at the same time as the water curtain appeared, the inky rain did not stop at all, hitting the water curtain, and the clear water curtain soon turned into the color of ink.
Jiu Li Qiantaro frowned, and hurriedly pinched another trick, and the inky water curtain instantly turned into an ice cover when the light flickered.
Now, they were no longer affected by the inky rain outside, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
