Chapter 284: Zhang Xiu
Just after I told Qing Yao about this matter, Qing Yao also agreed. Then we agreed and decided to leave in three days.
"What am I doing when you're gone?" Hisashi asked, looking at me from the side.
At this time, Jiusheng's mood was already better, after all, many days had passed.
I looked at Jiusheng and smiled, "You, if you're idle, just read a book." I have so many books in my study, not enough for you to read? ”
"Reading a book? Kill me. Hisashi shouted at me.
It's right to think about it when you look at Jiusheng like this, since I met Jiusheng, I have rarely seen Jiusheng read. He is usually forced to read books, otherwise he wouldn't have read them.
At that moment, I suddenly heard the sound of a carriage outside the door. I looked in the direction of the door, thinking that there was no one around here, how could there be the sound of a carriage?
With that in mind, I walked out of the courtyard.
"Nerd, dead fat, come and help me move things." Huayue's voice suddenly came.
I turned my head to look at Jiusheng and smiled, "Yes, now you won't be alone." ”
Jiusheng didn't speak, but a smile was already leaking from his face. He wished there was someone to talk to him, especially someone like Hua Yue.
When we walked out, I saw a carriage of things, and there was a white mandarin duck standing next to Huayue. At this time, the white mandarin duck has matured a lot, and it is more feminine.
"Qing Yao, I miss you so much." As soon as Bai Yuan saw Qing Yao, he ran over and shouted.
Qing Yao looked at Bai Yuan and said suspiciously, "You...... You are? ”
Huayue looked at the white mandarin duck and said, "Have you forgotten what I said to you?" Didn't Qing Yao lose her memory? ”
Bai Yuan looked at Qing Yao and said, "I'm sorry, I forgot about this." It's okay if you forget me, I remember you. I've brought you a lot of good things when I come back this time. ”
I looked at the two of them and smiled, thinking that the relationship between the two of them was quite good.
The white duck then turned his head to look at me and said, "Yo, didn't Master Wang speak when he saw me?" When did it become like the wind, and it became a slate face? ”
I hurriedly laughed, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not the slate-faced man of the wind. I just watched you talk again, so I didn't interject. ”
"Okay, okay, you guys will talk later, it's impossible for me to move back alone with so many things, you two strong men want to exhaust me?" Huayue looked at me and Jiusheng and said.
"Hey, what's wrong? Have you been empty lately? Bad waist? Jiusheng looked at Huayue with a lewd smile on his face.
Huayue looked at Jiusheng and said, "Cut, you can't think of kidney deficiency." ”
Jiusheng's smile disappeared instantly after hearing this, and all he could see was a wronged expression.
A few of us laughed when we saw it, and Jiusheng silently walked to the carriage and walked towards the courtyard with our things.
"Alright, let's move things quickly." I looked at Huayue and said.
Huayue nodded after hearing this, and then we started to work. And Bai Yuan and Qing Yao went back to the courtyard to chat.
We were busy for a while, and then we got everything back in the carriage in the same way. There are a lot of these things, some are for food, and there are a lot of things for women, I think they should be for Qing Yao.
When we were done, we sat down to rest. Taking advantage of the break, I told Huayue about me and Qing Yao going out for a while.
After hearing this, Huayue said: "Okay, you can go with confidence, you can rest assured that I am here." ”
I nodded, and then we chatted casually, while Qing Yao and Bai Yuan went to cook something for us to eat, saying that they wanted to treat us well.
Hua Yue looked at me and said, "Let me tell you something interesting, when we came back, we pulled an old man, and that old man was actually a Taoist priest." He actually came to our neighborhood too, but when he got to a nearby town, he got out of the carriage. And what to say, probably come back to this neighborhood in the near future, and say that he knows you. ”
I frowned, and then asked, "Did he say what his name was?" ”
Hua Yue thought for a while and said, "He didn't say this, anyway, I think that person is very strange." You know a lot of strange people, such as that ghost-eyed monk, I think that old man should also be your old friend. ”
"Old man? But I don't know any old men other than the Devil-Eyed Monk. In the Daomen, except for the master who is older, no one else really knows each other. I said as I thought.
Huayue shrugged her shoulders and said, "I don't know about this, anyway, looking at the old man's appearance, you should still be old acquaintances." ”
I thought about it for a long time, but I couldn't think of any old man I knew, and Che was still a member of the Daomen. Could it be that he was the one who participated in the big competition in the Daomen Gate back then? After thinking about it, I thought it was unlikely.
Then I looked at Huayue and asked, "What does that person look like?" ”
"Let me think about it." Hua Yue said as she touched her chin and thought about it.
After a while, Hua Yue suddenly said, "By the way, the old man has been hiding his right hand, as if he is afraid that others will see it. I also accidentally discovered that the man's right hand was actually broken. ”
After hearing this, I stood up suddenly: "Zhang Xiu, yes, it's probably Zhang Xiu." It's him back, and this old thing has finally come to the door. I'm still thinking about how to find him, and now it seems that everything is predestined. ”
"Zhang Xiu? Who is Zhang Xiu? Hua Yue looked at me suspiciously.
I stabilized my emotions for a moment, looked at Huayue and asked, "Do you remember when I was in Qingfeng Guan, I told you about the death of the man in black and my sister in this village when I was a child?" ”
Huayue thought for a moment and said, "Remember, how can I ......?"
Hua Yue was halfway through speaking, when he was suddenly stunned.
"You mean that that old man is the man in black back then, that is, Zhang Xiu in your mouth?" Huayue looked at me and asked.
I nodded, and Huayue froze in place.
After a while, Hua Yue relieved himself and said, "Now that I think about it, it is very likely, that person said that he knew you, and his right hand was also broken. It seems that that old man is likely to be Zhang Xiu. ”
Jiusheng glanced at Huayue, and then told Huayue about what we have been looking for him in the past few days. Moreover, he also told Zhang Xiu about catching Qingyao's soul.
After hearing this, Huayue looked at me and asked, "Chu Yan, then what should we do next?" ”
I thought for a moment and said, "In that case, I'm going not to go out first." The rest of the year we're waiting for that old thing in this place, and he didn't say he wanted to come here, so we'll let him come and go. ”
"Okay, that's how it was settled. But I think we'd better prepare first. Because when I talked to the old man, I always felt a dangerous aura from him, or it could be said that there was a sense of death, in short, it made people feel very uncomfortable. Huayue looked at Hisashi and said to me.
"Well, you can take your time in preparation, he shouldn't be coming over in the last two days. There must be something else going on when he goes to town, and we can take this opportunity to prepare slowly. I thought about it and said.
Jiusheng and Huayue nodded after hearing this, and at this time, Qing Yao and Bai Yuan had already prepared the meal.
"Why are you so silent, the food is ready, come over and eat." The white duck looked at the three of us and shouted.
We nodded, then got up and walked to the backyard.
During the meal, I looked at Qing Yao and said, "Qing Yao, let's talk about it later when I go to see Susan." Recently, there is going to be a person in the village, and the three of us have something to deal with with him. ”
Qing Yao didn't object after hearing this, and nodded directly.
After the meal, I said to a few people to go out for a walk, and then I went out of the Qiansuan Pavilion. When I left the village, I walked straight to my sister's grave.
I slowly knelt down in front of my sister's grave, and then opened my mouth and said, "Sister, that person has finally returned." This time, I not only want to snatch back Qing Yao's soul, but I also want to help you take revenge. ”
At this point, I feel like I've gone back to when I was a kid many years ago. At that time, I still lived in a dilapidated house. A girl with a lunch box walked in, and I could already smell the smell of chicken thighs through the lunch box.
"Little fool, my sister has come to see you." My sister's voice seemed to be in my ears.
But then my sister was forced to marry someone she didn't like, and in the end, she couldn't see me for the last time and left the world. And all of this was caused by the man in black and Zhang Xiu back then.
Although I also know that he is for revenge, how good and innocent my sister is, why did Zhang Xiu involve my sister. Thinking of this, I can't help but have a sour feeling in my heart.
After a long time, I slowly got up and removed the little red cloth bag hanging from my neck. Then I dug a pit at my sister's tombstone, and I put the red cloth bag in it.
As I filled the small pit with earth, I said to myself, "Sister, don't worry, I will definitely help you avenge your revenge." ”
After a few moments, I turned around and walked in the direction of the Thousand Calculation Pavilion.
When I went back, Hisashi and Katsuki were discussing something in the courtyard. Qing Yao and Bai Mandarin stayed in the room.
"Chu Yan is back, and I just discussed with Jiusheng whether to set a trap or something. After all, it's a human, not a ghost. Huayue looked at me and said.
"No need for traps, that old thing is very cunning, he won't be fooled easily. And Qing Yao's soul is in his hands, so it's inconvenient for us to do it, so we can only wait for him to appear. I said, sitting down at the stone table.
When I said this, I suddenly felt a little ridiculous. I remember that many years ago, my sister's soul was captured by Zhang Xiu. Right now...... Qing Yao's soul was captured by Zhang Xiu again.
