42. It's better to beg me

When she returned to Mrs. Wu, she began to burn incense and kneel down to invite the immortals, and after tossing for a while, she didn't see Hu Dingtang coming.

Mrs. Wu smiled at me awkwardly and said, "It seems that Third Master Hu is very busy and can't pull away." ”

"Then I'll go back and prepare things first, you invite a few more times, maybe he'll have time to come over in a while." I said.

Mrs. Wu grabbed me and said with a smile: "Miss Meng, if not, you can come and invite." ”

"I'm not his brother, what's the use of me please?" I was surprised.

"You can't say that." Mrs. Wu said seriously, "Actually, I understand in my heart, how can Hu Sanye look down on the little skill of the old man and accept me as a younger brother, he just looks at Miss Meng's face, so I think it's better for me to invite Miss Meng." ”

Mrs. Wu said, and she had already carefully stuffed a stick of incense into my hand: "Miss Meng, you jump, let's give it a try." ”

I was a little impatient with Mrs. Wu's urging, so I had to hold the incense and jump a few times, I wanted to use this to perfunctory Mrs. Wu, but I didn't expect that as soon as I stopped, there was a gust of wind in the flat ground, and then, Hu Dingtang, who was dressed in a black robe, stood in front of me.

"You're looking for me?"

Hu Dingtang is really tall, his face is angular and angular, and when he looked up suddenly, he felt for no reason, well...... This man is really good-looking.

I don't know why, but when I met his eyes, my face turned red.

Mrs. Wu on the side said excitedly: "Miss Meng, you see what I said is right, you and Hu Sanye are friends, if you go out, no matter how busy the third master is, he will come as soon as possible." ”

Hu Dingtang glanced at her, and she immediately said: "Ah, that, I'll go prepare the meal first, you guys talk first, and when the meal is ready, I'll call you again." ”

After saying that, she quickly ran out on tiptoe, and closed the door with her.

When there were still me and Hu Dingtang left in the room, I said angrily: "Why didn't you come when Mrs. Wu invited you just now?" ”

"It's already on the way." Hu Dingtang said, "When I arrived here, I found that there was another person. ”

"Oh." It turned out that it wasn't real, because I invited it.

Hu Dingtang asked again: "Disappointed?" ”

"What?" I didn't react for a while, "What am I disappointed about?" ”

"Nothing."

He leaned over my side with his hands behind his back, sniffed his nose, and said in disgust: "What smell, it's a little stinky, you can't be stepping on shit, right?" ”

"You've just stepped on shit!" I was almost full of black lines, and jumped to my feet and said, "You tell me clearly, where it stinks!" ”

He grabbed my right hand, pinched my index finger, put it under my nose and sniffed it, then brought it under my nose and said, "It's this finger that stinks, you can smell it yourself." ”

"It's just corpse oil." I withdrew my hand vigorously and hid it behind me, I used this finger to poke Aunt Seven's stomach before, but I didn't expect Hu Dingtang's nose to be more powerful than a dog, and he smelled it as soon as he smelled it.

Hu Dingtang smiled: "It turned out to be corpse oil, how about it, the errand I took today is very appetizing to you, right?" ”

"You know about this, right?" I asked.

Hu Dingtang nodded: "Mrs. Wu is my subordinate, any news she has will be fed back to me, after all, she can't be allowed to smash my signboard, right?" ”

"When Lu Youcai first came into contact with Mrs. Wu, I had already received the news from my side, and I focused on investigating."

"Then you should have figured out the ins and outs, can you send someone to help solve it?" I hurriedly said.

"You took over this matter, so why should I send someone else?" Hu Dingtang asked rhetorically, "What, are you in trouble?" ”

Didn't he knowingly ask?

I was not happy, so I turned around and turned my back to him without speaking.

"Take the initiative to tell me when you encounter difficulties, and I'm not not going to help you." Hu Dingtang lowered his head, close to me, his voice was not loud, the heat sprayed straight to my cheeks, I only felt that half of my face was burning, and I reached out and pushed him hard.

"Just talk, I don't have my ears back, why are you so close!" I scolded him fiercely, stretched out two fingers to poke my eyes, and complained, "That Lu Youcai has led soldiers to fight, entered the ancient tomb and contacted Yin soldiers, I suspect that he can't give birth to children, he should have damaged Yin virtue and been entangled by something, but I don't have yin and yang eyes, and I can't even see if his Yin Tang hair is black, how do you tell me to solve this matter!" ”

If you hadn't been strong, you wouldn't have felt so powerless, and now you can't even touch the door when you used to get your hands on it, and that frustration has already caused great damage in the depths of my soul.

I am not willing to be so ordinary, I think back then, my mana is profound, the court clothes embroidered by the Hades, every stitch and thread are alive, each pattern has poured a lot of mana, at the critical moment, one of my court clothes is his most powerful combat weapon of the Hades!

This is also the reason why I was able to do a first-class embroidery in the Yin Division Bureau at the beginning, and I was favored, because I had the strength and was irreplaceable by others.

But now, now I'm as weak as a cripple!

"Do you want yin and yang eyes?" Hu Dingtang said unhurriedly, "What you have is just not civilized yet." ”

I looked at him suddenly, my eyes began to glow, I bit my lip, tried my best to suppress the ecstasy in my heart, reached out and grabbed his wide sleeve, shook it, and said flatteringly: "I knew I definitely had it, Hu Dingtang, can you help me turn out the yin and yang eyes?" ”

"Ignition, this is a matter that consumes a lot of mana, if I don't get it right, I will be counterattacked, such a serious matter, I have to think about it carefully."

Posing for music, this person is clearly playing for music!

"And how can you help me?" I gritted my teeth and said, "Helping me or not helping yourself?" ”

Hu Dingtang raised his eyebrows and glanced at me, as if to say, pay attention to your own words and deeds, and ask for someone to have a gesture of asking for someone.

I tried my best to endure it, and said against my will: "That, in the end, I am now your person, your own person, what can I do if I sacrifice a little and help?" ”

Hu Dingtang was still unmoved, I bit my lip, leaned a little closer, hugged his arms with both hands, and whispered: "You say, how can you help me, I will thank you well." ”

"Oh, tell me, how would you thank me?" Hu Dingtang asked with interest.

How do I feel like I've fallen into his trap again?

But I don't have any other way, I want mana too much, I want yin and yang eyes, and at the moment, only Hu Dingtang can help me, compared to these things, sacrificing a little bit of my poor self-esteem doesn't seem to be nothing.

"How do you want me to thank you, you say yes, I will do what I can do." I lowered my voice.

"Huh." Hu Dingtang chuckled, lifted my chin with one finger, stared at my lips for a moment, and said, "This little mouth, which is used to singing against me, why has it suddenly become so well-behaved today?" ”

People are under the eaves, can I not bow my head?

I lowered my eyes, not wanting him to see the rebellion in my eyes, but he suddenly got half a minute closer, and his thin lips were so close that I couldn't ignore it: "There are some things that others can't help, it's up to you." ”

"I ...... myself" I closed my eyes, trying to ignore his existence, but my face burned more and more red, hotter and hotter, and the whole person was uncomfortable, "I can't do it myself." ”

"I didn't say I wouldn't help you." Hu Dingtang finally let go of me, his sleeve flicked, and the jade pendant he had given me before appeared in his hand again, and he handed me the jade pendant and said, "Take it." ”

I didn't answer, I turned around and didn't look at him, in my opinion, he could obviously help me, but he wanted to use this piece of broken jade pendant to perfunctory me, I didn't want it!

The next moment, behind my back, the broad chest came up, Hu Dingtang held the jade pendant in one hand, held my right hand with the other, the thumb nail lightly scratched on the scar on my previous middle finger, and blood beads came out, I tried to resist, but I couldn't shake him off at all.

He pinched my middle finger and dripped blood on the eyes of the white fox of the jade pendant, and suddenly, the entire jade pendant emitted a faint blue light, and at that moment, my whole body seemed to be shrouded in sunlight, warm.

"Fortunately, there is no rejection." Hu Dingtang rejoiced, "Before I came, I injected some mana into the jade pendant, and it accepted your blood, so it can be used for you, and you can do what you can with the help of my mana." ”

"This mana is also limited, right?" I asked.

Hu Dingtang nodded: "That's natural, but you can come to me again when you're done with it." ”

"Thank you." I say from the bottom of my heart.

"Meng Jiushang, remember, no matter when, it is better to ask for others than for yourself, I don't want you to bow your head and ask for anything." Hu Dingtang said solemnly.

I hummed, "Yes." ”

He approached again and said, "But, it is better to ask for yourself, than to ask me, understand?" ”

I pinched the jade pendant and lowered my head, not knowing how to answer him.

Although I understand that in this Lin'an City, there are few characters who can be more powerful than Hu Dingtang, and how many people can climb his dreams, but I always feel that his words are a little weird.

He himself is like an abyss that I can't figure out, and he is constantly tempting me to probe into this abyss, and I am really afraid that I will plunge into it headlong and never be able to pull it out again.

"Although I don't know where you came from, and I don't press you, there is indeed a huge amount of energy hidden in your body." Hu Dingtang finally said, "This power is imprisoned, and you can only slowly find a way to open it by yourself, how powerful you are, you know best in your heart." ”

Sure enough, Hu Dingtang spied some secrets from my body, and he probably knew more about me than I thought.

"Meng Jiushang, you are a treasure, I am happy to be your treasure digger, I will guard you until the day you really grow up, at that time, you may find that you and I may really meet God."

"I don't know how many sins I did in my previous life to put up a scoundrel like you!" I said stiffly, "Hu Dingtang, the number of lives will change, don't think you can really hold me, I advise you not to push me too hard, otherwise, I don't guarantee that one day in the future you will push me too quickly, I will bite you back." ”

"Hehe, then I'll have to wait and see." His hand was so hard that my jaw hurt, and he tapped his thumb twice on my lips and said, "I want to see how much it hurts to really be bitten down." ”

He let go of me and wanted to leave, raised his foot and paused, and whispered in my ear: "By the way, let me remind you, the fifteenth day of every month is my retreat day, and on that day I will gather all my mana to cultivate, so don't do it on that day." ”

After speaking, he left without looking back, leaving me alone to stand in place with the jade pendant in my hand, unable to come back to my senses for a long time.

Hu Dingtang is too unfathomable, I don't know how many secrets he knows about me, and I can't see through him.

It's just that, fifteen, this normal day that will be there every month, has a very important meaning for him.

I thought of the night of July 15, when he had a frown wrinkled all night and the fine beads of sweat on his head, and he said that he was going to retreat and practice that day, but in my opinion, there might be another mystery.

That day was not a good day for him, was it?

……

With the jade pendant given by Hu Dingtang, I didn't want to delay for a moment, so I asked Mrs. Wu to pack some necessary things, and was ready to rush to Lu Youcai's house, but I didn't expect that just after I went out, the Lu family's carriage went and returned, and the coachman saw us and said anxiously: "Miss Meng, my deputy will ask me to come and pick you up." ”

"Is there another change in the house?" I asked.

"As soon as you left for a while, Aunt Seven's stomach hurt more than once, and the house was full of smoke and miasma, and even my deputy general didn't dare to approach, which was quite scary." The coachman said as he drove the carriage.

I was horrified, slapped my thigh and said, "It's bad, I misjudged." ”

"What was wrong?" Mrs. Wu also became nervous.

"Before, I speculated that the seventh aunt was not pregnant, but was tricked and harmed her like that, but now it seems that the situation is more complicated than I imagined."

Yes, why did I forget to ask clearly, what kind of swear did Vice General Lu make with that female ghost in that big tomb?!

"Miss Meng, do you mean that Aunt Seven is really pregnant?" Mrs. Wu is also a clever person, and she immediately captured my worries, "But if you are really pregnant, and you haven't been in labor for more than ten months, I'm afraid it's just a stillborn now, right?" ”

"It's not as simple as you think." I clasped my hands tightly and said, "Vice General Lu led the troops to fight, and countless prisoners died in his hands, and the resentment accumulated on his body was already deep, plus several generations of his family went to the tomb to adjust the Yin soldiers, and it is impossible to say what strange things are dyed on his body, he married the wife of Aunt Qifang but could not give birth to a child, which is affected by these." ”

"But if Aunt Seventh is really pregnant in this situation, what do you think she is pregnant?"

As I spoke, I lifted the curtain and looked out.

In the morning, the sun was still shining brightly in the sky, but this time it was already dimmed, and the surroundings were gray, so I subconsciously asked, "What time is this?" ”

"It's time for Shen." The coachman replied, "According to Western time, it should be almost four o'clock." ”

"That's not right!" I suddenly became nervous, "Even in late autumn, the sun can't go down so early, the fog is still so heavy, and it's not cloudy today." ”

As he spoke, the horse running in front of me suddenly tripped over something, and the carriage jolted, almost throwing me out.

The coachman immediately grabbed the reins in his hand, stabilized the horse, and was about to go down to inspect it, when a silver-white iron pillar pierced straight into the horse's left eye.

The horse roared in pain, and its two front hooves kicked upwards with all its might, and by that time, the iron pillar had passed through the horse's eyes and head, and came out of the right eye, and the whole horse was hoisted up out of thin air, and the terrible neighing sound shook the surrounding woods.

All three of them were stunned, and the iron pillar seemed to have eyes, and suddenly threw it back, and went straight to the coachman in front.

I grabbed Mrs. Wu and threw her off the carriage with a sharp blow, and at the same time kicked the coachman in front of me, who was already frightened, and the coachman rolled and fell to the ground.

The iron pillar turned a corner, and stabbed at me again, I had no time to dodge, in a panic, I suddenly touched the jade pendant given by Hu Dingtang, and I couldn't think too much at that time, so I grabbed the jade pendant and went up.

The faint blue light slammed into the iron pillar, and suddenly there was a white swaying in front of me, and the iron pillar was instantly shattered into pieces, and the hanging horse fell to the ground with a bang, and the surrounding gray fog dispersed, and at dusk, a little light penetrated through, and I lay on the edge of the carriage gasping for breath.

The coachman was so frightened that he fell to the ground and couldn't get up, so Mrs. Wu struggled to crawl over, grabbed the corner of my clothes and asked me, "Miss Meng, are you okay?" ”

"It's okay, it's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, I'm afraid it's more dangerous over there in Lufu, we have to rush over as soon as possible." I struggled to my feet and looked at the fallen horses, and it seemed that the carriage was useless.

The coachman urged: "You go first, I'll catch up after a while." ”

"Then be careful." After saying that, I dragged Mrs. Wu and ran forward.

While running, Mrs. Wu asked me, "What happened just now?" It's scary. ”

"I'm afraid the more terrifying is still to come, don't ask yet, the Lu Mansion is the most important thing in the past."

"Then the jade pendant is Hu Sanye's thing, right?"

“……”

"Hu Sanye really lives up to his reputation, and he is powerful in all directions."

"No one needs to be on the scene to burst out with such great power, and there is no second such powerful character in the entire Lin'an City."

"Okay, I'll shoot it next time I see Hu Dingtang, shut up now."

This Mrs. Wu is worthy of being a matchmaker, and she is as noisy as a crow, talking non-stop.

Mrs. Wu spent this time with me and was somewhat in awe of me, so I told her to shut up, and she finally stopped.

When we were about to arrive at Lufu, we happened to meet Xiao Jinyu, who hoped that we would not come, and estimated that something went wrong on the way, so he wanted to pick us up in person.

"Is there something wrong in the house?" When we met, I asked anxiously.

Xiao Jinyu nodded straightly: "Something happened, something happened, there was a miasma in Aunt Seven's room, Brother Lu was also dragged in just now, and I couldn't see anything, so I heard him screaming, howling like killing a pig." ”
