Chapter 68: The Prodigal Son
I have to admit that in terms of on-site investigation, Guo Wei is indeed higher than himself, and he has noticed many details that he didn't notice, and Situ Jingping is secretly glad that Guo Wei is here.
"Go up the hill and take a look, there's nothing to see in this village anymore."
After looking at the last house, Guo Wei clapped his hands and said.
……
"You stop, you want to sneak out again!"
Baishengtang, Murong Qianqian stopped Zhou Yi who wanted to sneak out of the back door.
"Hee-hee, Qianqian......"
Zhou Yi, who was discovered, looked embarrassed, touched his head and said embarrassedly.
"I knew you would sneak out, but fortunately, grandpa asked me to guard the back door, otherwise I would have let you run away."
Murong Qianqian said indignantly, Murong Zhao knew that when Zhou Yi gave him the note, she knew that she was going to sneak out to find Ouyang Kai again.
"Grandpa, ...... quickly"
Murong Qianqian's shout startled Zhou Yi, and she hurriedly stepped forward to cover her mouth with her hand,
"Don't shout, it's over when grandpa comes!"
Seeing that there was no one around, Zhou Yi whispered to Murong Qianqian,
"Don't tell grandpa, I promise you, when your leg is better, I will take you with me......"
"Where are we going?"
Before Zhou Yi's words were finished, Murong Zhao's voice sounded from behind them.
"Master...... Grandpa......"
The two turned around and said hello to Murong Zhao embarrassedly.
"Qianqian will go to the lobby first to sit in the patient, and Yi'er will stay."
Murong Qianqian would not be like Zhou Yi, sneaking out without saying a word, Murong Zhao's next words were just to Zhou Yi, there were still patients waiting to see a doctor in the lobby, so there was no need for Murong Qianqian to stay.
After seeing Murong Qianqian enter the lobby, Murong Zhao turned around and looked at Zhou Yi,
"I want to go to your master again?"
This is not the first time, just yesterday I chased to the mansion and was knocked out by Ouyang Kai and hugged back.
"No, nothing!"
Zhou Yi hurriedly denied it, if he admitted it at this time, it would be okay, and if he wanted to go out, it would definitely be no fun.
"Then what are you doing out there, going through the back door?"
"I ...... I'll go out and breathe! Yes, breathable! ”
Zhou Yi said with a smile, secretly proud of the excuse he found for himself in his heart.
"Do you need to carry a burden for ventilation?"
"This ......"
Zhou Yi was speechless for a while, originally going out to breathe was a temporary excuse, where would he take so much into account when he thought about it.
"Don't speak, you can see at a glance that you want to go to your master, come with me."
It was not convenient to talk at the door after all, Murong Zhao called Zhou Yi to the pavilion in the backyard,
"Come, put down the baggage first."
Sitting on the stone bench, Murong Zhao wanted to signal on Monday.
Zhou Yi could only obediently put the burden on the stone table.
"Do you know why I didn't let you go to your master?"
Without scolding, Murong Zhao just asked Zhou Yi this question softly.
"I know, grandpa is afraid that I will cause trouble to the master."
Of course, Zhou Yi knew the reason why Murong Zhao stopped her.
"If you know, why would you do it?"
Now that she knew that it would cause trouble for her master, it would be easy to convince her of this matter.
"This ......"
Zhou Yi couldn't answer, could it be that he felt safe by Ouyang Kai's side? Even if she was killed, she couldn't say such a thing.
"Your master is just too used to you, and everything is up to you."
Thinking about Ouyang Kai's attitude towards Zhou Yi, Murong Zhao could only sigh.
Although Zhou Yi wanted to refute Murong Zhao, she couldn't open her mouth, because the truth was indeed as Murong Zhao said, Ouyang Kai was used to her in everything, except for sword practice.
"Do you know what snake you were bitten by last time?"
Murong Zhao threw another question to Zhou Yi.
How did Zhou Yi know what snake bit her, it was dark at the time, and she was afraid, so she didn't look at the snake at all, so she could only shake her head.
"It's the three-day snake that bites you, do you know the three-day snake?"
Seeing Zhou Yi shaking her head, Murong Zhao directly told her the answer and asked the next question.
Zhou Yi only knew poisonous snakes and non-poisonous snakes, and she had never heard of the snake for three days, so she could only shake her head.
"You don't know, let me tell you, the Three-Day Snake is the most poisonous snake in the world, even if it is exhausted by the Hundred Lives Hall, it is not capable of pulling the person bitten by the Three-Day Snake back from the Ghost Gate."
"Then I'm ......"
Listening to Murong Zhao's words, Zhou Yi was really startled, he thought it was an ordinary poisonous snake, but he didn't expect it to be so powerful.
"You? Your master traveled day and night to the capital to obtain the Blood Essence Lotus for you,
If it is an ordinary speed, it will take about 20 days to go back and forth from Dangzhou to the capital, and your master will only take ten days, if it is another two or two days late, you will be unable to save the immortals. ”
Murong Zhao looked at Zhou Yi and solemnly told Zhou Yi about this matter.
"This ......"
Zhou Yi also heard it for the first time, and no one told her when she asked before, it turned out that Ouyang Kai had worked so hard to retrieve the Blood Essence Lotus, but he still ......
"In the past, it was not far from the city, and if you followed, I would follow, and I would not stop you.
But this time he set off to Baihua Valley overnight, there must be something urgent, and it is safest for him to go by himself.
If you go, not only will you not be able to help, but you will also distract him, and if there is an accident, you will even have to burden him, do you still want to follow? ”
Murong Zhao told Zhou Yi the stakes of the whole matter, and let her know that it would not be beneficial to follow Ouyang Kai to the Valley of Hundred Flowers.
"No, not going, grandpa."
Originally, Zhou Yi just wanted to follow Ouyang Kai to see a lot of things that she couldn't find before, even if there was danger, someone would protect her, but she didn't expect it to be so troublesome, where would she dare to continue chasing Ouyang Kai.
"Since you're not going, then you don't take the baggage back!"
Zhou Yi hurriedly picked up the burden on the table and went upstairs.
"Remember to come down and practice your sword!"
"Huh?! Why do you still have to practice swords? ”
Just halfway through, Zhou Yi heard that he still had to practice swords, and looked at Murong Zhao with a sad face.
……
It took two days, and in the evening, Ouyang Kai finally arrived at the Valley of Hundred Flowers.
"Stop!"
As soon as the front foot was about to step into the boundary of the Hundred Flowers Valley, two women came out from behind the big tree not far away, blocking Ouyang Kai's way.
"Who's coming?"
The two women blocking the way looked at Ouyang Kai vigilantly and asked.
"Qinghong Sword Saint disciple Ouyang Kai has an urgent matter to see the head of Hundred Flowers Valley!" Ouyang Kai replied.
In front of other sects, it is not like being outside, and there should still be etiquette.
"Qinghong Sword Saint? Haven't heard of it. Men are not allowed to set foot in the Valley of Hundred Flowers, and besides, how can the head of the house have time to pay attention to you, and where to go back and forth. ”
After speaking, the two women ignored Ouyang Kai and went back to chat behind the big tree.
"It's a matter of the survival of the Valley of Hundred Flowers, please report it to the two girls!"
Ouyang Kai said to the two women again.
He knew that the Hundred Flowers Valley would not enter the man, but this time the matter was more urgent, and he had to enter the Hundred Flowers Valley.
"Our Hundred Flowers Valley is very good, don't you see us good!"
The Valley of Hundred Flowers has always had no quarrel with the world, and in their hearts, their sect rarely even gets into trouble, let alone anything related to survival.
Ouyang Kai's face immediately darkened, and he turned to leave, admonishing the two women as he walked,
"Within five days, there will be a great calamity in the Valley of Hundred Flowers!"
The words have been brought, as for whether they listen or not, Ouyang Kai can't care anymore, the most important thing for him to come to Baihua Valley is to save his master.
"There will be great trouble in five days, and I will have trouble for you!"
Seeing Ouyang Kai turn to leave, the two women spat on his back, their faces full of disgust and disdain.
"It's almost time to change shifts, let's go back!"
……
"That person just didn't see us well and scares us by talking."
"Even if you still claim to be a disciple of the Qinghong Sword Saint, I don't know where it came from."
"I think he's a prodigal son, and he just wants to come to our Valley of Hundred Flowers to make trouble."
The two women walked back to the Valley of Hundred Flowers, still bowing their heads and discussing Ouyang Kai's affairs.
"You two stop!"
A voice sounded from behind them, startling them.
"Palm...... Master! ”
The two turned around and found that it was their own head, and they immediately became trembling, thinking that they had done something wrong.
"What's the matter with the Qinghong Sword Saint disciple you just mentioned?"
It turned out that it was not that they had done something wrong, and the two women breathed a sigh of relief and explained to the master,
"Back to the master, there was a man outside the valley who asked to see him, claiming to be ......"
"Well, I see, you guys go down!"
After listening to the words of the two women, the head of Baihua Valley looked in the direction of Gumen and thought thoughtfully.
It's night
