Chapter 52: Friends
On the way back to Yucheng, the little carpenter asked Gu Baiguo a question.
That's her face, why it's like that.
Gu Baiguo's answer is very simple, that is, her appearance at the moment has affected her normal life, and even affected other people's judgment and interaction with her, since this is the case, then she will hide her appearance so that others can't remember it.
As for why she was able to do this, it was probably the racial talent of the Qingqiu Fox......
She didn't learn it, but when she got the strength, she would naturally know it.
Speaking of strength, Gu Baiguo told the little carpenter that after she left Yingfutun at the foot of Changbai Mountain, she had met his master Lu Da and stayed with him for a few days.
Lu Da helped her reconcile the power of Emperor Jun in her body, and also taught her a set of methods.
Since then, she has never been negatively troubled by the power of Emperor Jun, and has turned the power of Emperor Jun in her body into a big tree, and she is like a vine, absorbing sufficient nutrients from it and growing rapidly.
Theoretically, how tall the big tree of Emperor Jun's power is, how strong she is.
But in reality, when she is not completely adopted for herself, she is still a vine after all, not a big tree......
Like the little carpenter, she has a bright future and a common problem.
It takes time to grow.
The two were open and honest, and they continued to discuss spiritual matters, and they also gained a lot from each other.
In addition, the relationship between the two has gradually returned to the state when they first met, because there is no heavy psychological burden before, so Gu Baiguo has returned to the elf eccentricity when he was a child, and he is also willing to show his little girl's temperament in front of the little carpenter......
Such a state of getting along makes the little carpenter feel very comfortable, and he doesn't bother to delve into what is behind it.
Both of them maintain a tacit understanding and will not touch on topics that neither of them want to talk about.
The little carpenter was originally such a leisurely person, calm as water, and there was an extra Gu Baiguo by his side, but it was like a black and white painting, with a touch of bright color, and there was a trace of waves on the calm lake, and his life seemed to become much more beautiful and moving because of this......
Such a warm and harmonious atmosphere finally ended when the ship was transferred at Chaotianmen Wharf in Yucheng.
The two planned to take a boat from Wushan County to Yucheng, and then take a boat from Yucheng to Shuzhong, and then go to Jinguancheng, because of the previous incident, the little carpenter did not plan to stay in Yucheng for more, but he needed to transfer ships in the middle, so after getting off the dock, he directly contacted a small steamer passenger ship, and then took Gu Baiguo to eat noodles in a small stall near the dock while waiting.
They were going to eat something, pad their babes, and then continue their journey, but the noodles were not finished yet, and the small stall welcomed an uninvited guest.
A man wrapped all over his body.
Seeing this man, the little carpenter put down the noodle bowl full of chili oil, looked around, and then said to the man, "Shall we go outside and talk?" ”
The man nodded and said yes.
Gu Baiguo saw that something was wrong, put down his chopsticks, and asked, "Brother-in-law, this ......"
The little carpenter pressed her shoulders and said, "A friend of mine came and gave it to me." ”
The two left the noodle stall and came to the nearby river.
The waves crashed against the river, and the man looked at the swaying boats in the middle of the river, and the warm yellowing glow of the evening, and then removed his hat from his head, revealing a pale and bleak face.
This person is Cheng Han.
The son of Cheng Lanting, the leader of the Yucheng Robe Brothers' Association.
Cheng Han's face was very white, and his lips were a little thin because they were not bloody, like a lancet knife.
He looked at the little carpenter lightly and said slowly: "What, are you going to go to Shuzhong?" ”
The little carpenter nodded and said, "Yes, I'm going to go to Jinguan City." ”
Cheng Han asked, "Since you are passing by Yucheng, why don't you come to me?" Why, don't you want to recognize me as a friend? ”
Hearing this, the little carpenter was slightly embarrassed.
He raised his hand, touched his face, and then asked, "You should know about the matter over there in Wushan, right?" ”
A few days later, and Chen Cang must have returned to Yucheng, Cheng Han must have known the news of his father's death, and naturally knew that the person who killed his father was Qu Menghu, the son of the god of wine.
And with Qu Menghu, it is he Gan Mogan Thirteen.
Cheng Han's face was as cold as ever, but his lips became thinner and thinner.
He said expressionlessly, "Yes, I know. ”
The little carpenter opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.
Although he felt that there was nothing wrong with killing Cheng Lanting from beginning to end, and it was even a great merit, after all, Cheng Lanting, a sanctimonious guy, was already bad to the bone - if he lived, there would be many people in this world who would be unfortunate and even die tragically.
Kill one person, live countless people, no matter how you look at it, this business is all profitable.
But you can tell anyone about this, but you can't talk to Cheng Han about it.
Because no matter what, Cheng Lanting is still Cheng Han's father after all.
This is his original family, which will accompany him for a lifetime, even if he dies, he can't break free.
So the little carpenter had to replace words with silence.
At this time, Cheng Han broke the awkward silence: "So, do you know where Qu Menghu is?" ”
The little carpenter shook his head and said, "We are separated. ”
Cheng Han nodded and said, "So, are we still friends?" ”
When the little carpenter heard this, he couldn't help but raise his head and glanced at Cheng Han, and after a while, he said seriously: "As long as you think it is, I am." ”
Cheng Han barely squeezed out a little smile on his dead face, and asked, "If I kill Qu Menghu, too?" ”
The little carpenter did not answer his words directly, but said, "You can't kill him." ”
Cheng Han asked with interest, "Oh, he's strong?" ”
The little carpenter thought about it and decided to persuade Cheng Han from the perspective of a friend: "He is not just strong, but a guy like him, a figure favored by God, destined to be born with radiance; I can't think of a few people who can take him down but himself......"
Hearing such a high evaluation from the little carpenter, Cheng Han fell into silence.
The two were relatively silent, and after a long while, Gu Baiguo walked over, waved his hand cautiously to this side, and then said, "We have to get on the boat......"
At this time, Cheng Han raised his head, tried very hard to squeeze out a bright smile on his face that had already become stiff, and said to the little carpenter: "Friend, let's go, have a good trip......"
Hearing this, looking at the smile that the other party still looked a little stiff even though he tried harder, the little carpenter was in a complicated mood.
He sighed and said, "Okay, cherish." ”
A thousand words, but only this one sentence.
Say a word of preciousness.
Treasure......
The little carpenter and Gu Baiguo converged and walked towards the small steamer on the other side of the dock, Cheng Han put on his hat and silently sent it behind.
They didn't speak to each other, and when they were about to get on the boat, the little carpenter turned to him and said, "So, you still have to go to Qu Menghu's trouble, right?" ”
Cheng Han nodded and said, "Yes." ”
After he finished speaking, he paused, and then said, "No matter what others say about him, but he's my father after all, right?" The revenge of killing his father is not shared......"
Cheng Han had a straight face and said it seriously, but his tone was still a little ridiculous, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.
After all, before this, he hated his father Cheng Lanting more than father and son.
But......
For example, in your hometown, you can scold, slander and ridicule casually, but if someone says half a "no", you may rush up and scare people, and Cheng Han's mood must be the same......
The little carpenter looked at Cheng Han and sighed.
Then he waved his hand.
Cheng Han stood on the edge of the dock, looking at the little carpenter on the side of the small steamer, looking at this former old friend, as if he was a little familiar, but a little strange.
He couldn't help but think of a certain year and month, when the two were talking and drinking on Zhang Feilou, talking about ancient and modern things......
Everything seems to be as far away as an old dream.
Woo......
The whistle sounded, and the people on the boat traveled far away, looking at the friends who were gradually disappearing, Cheng Han waved his hand vigorously, as if saying goodbye to the past.
Friends, friends.
May you be warm in three winters, may you not be cold in spring, may you have lights in the dark, umbrellas in the rain, and may you be accompanied by loved ones along the way......
Hopefully not to have to say goodbye.
On Jiang Xin's small steamer, the little carpenter withdrew his gaze and returned to his seat.
Gu Baiguo, who was next to him, saw that he seemed to be immersed in some kind of strong emotion, and he didn't dare to disturb, but in the end he couldn't help but ask, "Brother-in-law, what's wrong?" ”
The little carpenter shook his head and said, "Nothing. ”
Gu Baiguo pointed to the corner of his eyes with a smile and said, "It's nothing...... Will it be? ”
The little carpenter wiped the corners of his eyes casually and said, "There is a strong wind on the river. ”
I believe you're a ghost!
Gu Baiguo became more and more amused, but seeing that the little carpenter's emotions were almost a little unbearable, he didn't say anything more, and was silent quietly.
There was nothing to say all the way, and after a while, people returned to the cabin one after another, and after sitting down, these passengers who had been wandering the rivers and lakes began to chat, coming and going, but they talked about the recently tragic death of the Black Tiger Gang leader Wan Dehu, Gu Baiguo heard the little carpenter talk about it, but the little carpenter didn't want to show off, and said it relatively simply and vaguely, so at this moment, when she heard this version that had been constantly interpreted, she was very curious and listened with interest.
However, this version, the description of the killing of Wan Dehu is really a bit too mysterious, saying that the murderer recited a spell, but a flying sword came from a hundred miles away, and a sword killed the notorious guy Wan Dehu......
Is the legend of the swordsman of Shushan?
Hearing this, Gu Baiguo was stunned, couldn't help but laugh evilly, and then patted the little carpenter.
The little carpenter was teased by Gu Baiguo, he was very depressed, and subconsciously looked at the people who were foaming at the mouth of the chat, and then his eyes were certain, and then he turned around.
He whispered in Gu Baiguo's ear, "Be careful." ”
