Chapter 223: Ghost Horses Chase the Wind
Finally escaped the catastrophe of Ghost Capital Town, since the stinky sock master couldn't deal with the Black Tower Army in Ghost Capital Town, not only Shi Jingyun, but even King Shou'an calmly returned to the room.
As soon as the door of the inn opened, Tian Ji's phantom broke, and Zhu Baye also ran back without danger.
As soon as the door of the inn closed, the streets of Onidu Town returned to a dead silence. The lights on the street are lit up, and the shadows are abundant, cold green, dark blue, purple red and purple red cold light.
The night sky was still as black as ink, like a pair of ghostly black wings that obscured all the breath.
The paper lanterns that ushered in the inn were snow-white and exuding a ghostly glow. The inhabitants of the town will never be able to see such paper lanterns, and their eyes cannot see the night.
When Hua Lan woke up in the morning, the east window was already full of sunshine.
"Master, you slept so deeply. The stinky sock master just came over and said that he had something to do first, and asked me to give you a reply to the master and let you hurry first. ”
The spring silkworm came in with water and said as he handed over the towel.
Hua Lan washed her face, and her mind was a little drowsy and confused, why did Master Stinky Socks leave first?
"That's all Master said?"
"Hmm."
Spring silkworm nodded and began to help Hua Lan comb her hair. She quickly combed Hua Lan's hair to the end with a wooden comb, and tied a beautiful knot on the top of her head and carefully inserted a hosta: "However, the stinky socks master said that the wind-chasing horse sent by the shopkeeper of Rongchang Garment Shop was left to the master." He rode away without a trace. He also said that he was very thoughtful about stepping on the snow without a trace, and it was a waste for the master to keep it. ”
Walking on the snow without a trace is a good BMW, and it is indeed a waste and a pity to use it to pull a car.
Hua Lan exhaled secretly, just ride away, or you can really help the master at the critical moment.
She came out of the guest room and went downstairs to the lobby, Shi Jingyun and Zhu Baye were just about to go out. A few people exchanged a few words, and Hua Lan sent the two out of the inn.
"Dude, you'd better bring more food, and enter the hill in front, and you have to walk more than five hundred miles to see the village and town. The main road is far away from the surrounding mountain villages, and there is no food on the road, so I am afraid that I will have to wait until late to find the inn. ”
Zhu Baye reminded.
"Thank you, Eighth Master."
Hua Lan bowed her hand respectfully, Shi Jingyun smiled indifferently, threw a tacit look at her, and took Zhu Baye away.
He walked a little depressed, but there was still a sense of ease and magic on the surface, since Zhu Baye took the risk of sending him here, he naturally wanted to send people back safely.
There is a horse market in the town, Shi Jingyun picked two fast horses, and the two rode quickly to the next town, Hengqiu Town.
Hua Lan had breakfast with Jin Se Huasan and Spring Silkworm in the lobby, only to see King Shou'an with a cold face and Tian Ji coming down from downstairs.
"Shopkeeper, check out."
Hua Lan was just about to step forward to say hello, but King Shou'an turned his face and beckoned to the shopkeeper as if he didn't see her.
"The house money of several sons, the stinky socks master has already settled the account before leaving."
The shopkeeper smiled like a wagging pug, and then instructed the man, "Go and lead the horse for the guest." ”
King Shou'an hasn't eaten breakfast yet, although his stomach is not hungry, but he can see the attitude of the shopkeeper: "Our store does not prepare breakfast for guests." ”
Xiao Er went out fast and came back faster, Shou'an Wang and Tian Ji just took a few steps, Xiao Er's horse was led in the courtyard and shouted: "Guest officer, your horse is well led." ”
King Shou'an didn't say anything, let alone say goodbye to Hua Lan, and walked out of the inn with a cold face.
Hua Lan felt that King Shou'an's behavior was a little abnormal, and he seemed to be deliberately exaggerating to show coldness to her. She couldn't think of why King Shou'an was like this, and when she saw him leave the inn without saying hello to her, she asked the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, has the master explained anything besides paying the store?" Like, what do we need to bring? ”
"Oh, worthy of being the apprentice of the stinky sock master, yes, yes, yes!"
The shopkeeper narrowed his slender smiling eyes, and when he said this, the young man on the side hurriedly went to the counter to pick up the big burden and handed it over.
"The stinky socks master asked me to give these foods to the playboy, and said that the food was enough to eat on the way to the playboy."
After he finished speaking, seeing that Hua Lan's face had not changed, after handing over the burden in his hand, he said very mysteriously: "Dude, I am an outsider, let's say something off-topic." The playboy must listen to the master, if he doesn't, he won't have a chance to listen again. ”
Hua Lan deeply understood the hint of the shopkeeper, took the burden, and hurriedly thanked: "Thank you for the shopkeeper's kind reminder." ”
Hua San prepared the carriage and set up the wind chasing horse. Hua Lan said goodbye to the shopkeeper and took Jin Se and the spring silkworm into the carriage.
The morning sun rises, and the sky is full of colorful clouds. The quiet town has regained its prosperity and liveliness, and the carriage has left the town of Ghost Capital and headed west into a large hilly area.
The frequent accidents in the past few days have made Hua Lan more cautious.
By noon, there were no villages or towns to be seen. Hua Lan opened her baggage, everyone had a hasty lunch, and continued to walk non-stop between the high and low hills and mountains.
The wind-chasing horse spread its hooves, and when it was evening, it finally came out of a large hill, and a large village and town appeared in front of it.
When the carriage arrived at the entrance of Kuaizhenkou, two horses appeared on the side of the road, and King Shou'an was sitting on a large bluestone. The afterglow of the setting sun fell on his cheeks, and he was slanting his eyes and staring coldly at the carriage approaching.
"Master, it's the eldest prince!"
The spring silkworm was poking her head out to look around, and when she saw that it was King Shou'an, she hurriedly retracted her neck and bowed to Hua Lan.
The three words King Shou'an and the eldest prince have been equated, and Hua Lan hurriedly told Hua San to stop the carriage and jumped out of the carriage.
"Could there be any problems?"
has the strange experience of passing through the ghost capital town, Hua Lan is more vigilant in her heart, and there must be a reason why King Shou'an is waiting at the entrance of the town.
"Has your master never appeared?"
King Shou'an had already sent the guards to Dao Town to inquire about the news, but there was no news back at this time. He was still hesitating: "It's better to be cautious." ”
He glanced around the carriage, but didn't find any stinky socks, and his eyebrows became a little more indifferent: "The dude is really lucky." I heard that this stinky sock master is a wandering idler, and his whereabouts have always been erratic. People who want to find him have searched all corners of the continent and the sea, and it is difficult to find his trace. Not to mention apprenticeship, it is even more difficult to see real people. Unexpectedly, the playboy would have a master-apprentice relationship with him. ”
Master Stinky Socks is a strange person, and Hua Lan has seen it a long time ago. King Shou'an's words were obviously sour with jealousy, Hua Lan smiled secretly in her heart, and couldn't help but hook the corners of her lips: "What, is the eldest prince envious or jealous?" If it weren't for my relationship with Master, the eldest prince almost lost his life, would this be to thank me? ”
"yes. This son is going to memorize this stroke by heart. ”
The cold color on King Shou'an's face opened, he looked out in the direction of the town, and suddenly changed his tone: "Wait, Hengqiu Town is also unusual, you have to be careful in everything, I heard that the townspeople here don't go out at night." ”
Isn't it, could it be that there will also be the Gray Tower Army and the Black Tower Army of Ghost Capital Town here?
Hua Lan thought that she had been entangled by the Gray Tower Army, not only did her scalp feel numb, but even her stomach began to vomit.
She glanced at the setting sun in the distance: "You can't stay in the store overnight, right?" ”
"It's not so exaggerated, the matter of Ghost Capital Town. I'm sending someone to find out, there must be something wrong with this. ”
King Shou'an saw Hua Lan's nervous expression, and a trace of joy rose in his heart inexplicably. But his face was even more indifferent.
This kind of indifference was suppressed with forbearance, and even his tone became more serious: "Master Stinky Socks is a strict person, he will not leave you as an apprentice." The reason why he didn't show up was probably because there wouldn't be any weird things going on in this town. Also, did he tell you anything in particular when he left? ”
"Tell what?"
Hua Lan looked at the spring silkworm, who was the last person she would meet with the master.
The spring silkworm shook her head blankly: "Master, the stinky sock master didn't say anything." I just said that I asked the master to go to Kunlun Mountain first, and then left the wind chasing horse. ”
The wind chasing horse was given to the stinky socks by the shopkeeper of the Rongchang ready-to-wear shop in Guidu Town. There is nothing strange about this way out of the ghost capital town, and the run is fast, but in the end, it can't catch up with the snow without a trace, and it is obviously a lot slower.
