Chapter Twenty-Five: Death is Imminent
"It turned out to be Ma Daochang, why did you go and come back?"
Shen Yushan distracted the other party's attention while talking, and silently took two steps back, and with a trace of the soles of his feet, he smoothed out the painting of the wine on the ground, and couldn't help but breathe a deep sigh of relief.
Ma Chunliang frowned, always felt that Shen Yushan looked weird, and said: "It's nothing, I just feel that Shen Jiaerlang is alone, and I am not very relieved." ”
At this time, on both sides behind Ma Chunliang, two figures walked out from the cover of the wooden wall, which were the people of the bridge town guards.
Shen Yushan breathed a deep sigh of relief again, and then endless confusion surged in his heart, why did the sacrificial wine he sprinkled to the old man inexplicably automatically outline the portrait of this collapsed-nosed Taoist priest, what does this mean?
Is there a demon who is haunting him, deliberately doing it, inciting him to be suspicious, and then indiscriminately killing each other with this Taoist priest?
Or, is it the old man's ghost warning that this slumped-nosed Taoist priest ...... Exactly the murderer?
Shen Yushan's heart was more inclined to the latter, but he had no evidence, and he even had a thought flashing through his mind just now, and he confronted the death of the old man of the Taoist priest in front of him. However, Shen Yushan did not do this, and he even erased the painting very simply and decisively.
The Taoist priest in front of him is by no means easy to match, since he can distinguish the difference between zombies and zombies, it is absolutely impossible for him to be a fake Taoist priest who cheats to eat and drink, but should have some real skills.
Therefore, Shen Yushan just flashed this thought, and immediately vetoed it, the enemy is not clear, it is best not to lift the table immediately, otherwise it is easy to flash his waist.
"Thank you for your care, I'm fine." Shen Yushan said calmly, "I have already worshipped, there are still some things at home, don't go about it for the time being." ”
The guards of the two bridge town guards immediately said:
"Shen Jiaerlang has something to do, then let's go quickly, we will leave later."
"Yes, yes, let's come here just because Brother Zhang Lin is worried, Erlang is fine, let's go home quickly."
Shen Yushan nodded, walked briskly, although he was anxious, he was calm, and pretended to walk down the slope easily.
From beginning to end, he didn't look at the Collapsed Nose Taoist again.
……
……
"Have you heard, the reeds and lake bandits have been killed."
"I already knew, I got up last night, and just came back from the grass, I happened to see the fire burning, and it was ...... Ahh ”
"I'm fishing today, and the river water in the past is faintly blood-red. It's a pity that I didn't see the corpses, otherwise the fish would have eaten the corpses of these wicked people, and they would have been fatter and stronger. ”
"Oh, don't say it, I'm drinking fish soup, what do you tell me to eat."
"Hahaha, don't worry, little brother, the fish downstream can't eat the corpses, the corpses of these wicked people, even if they come down the river, they have to be intercepted by those zombies, chew it, chew it, eat the bones and dregs."
"Alas...... I heard that the one who killed the lake bandits this time was a young Taoist with a scholarly temperament, and I really hope that he can easily wipe out this scourge of zombies, but it's really worrying. ”
"I heard that Zhang Kaiqian has already gone to invite people from the Gu Immortal Sword Sect, but there is no letter yet, these people, I really can't count on it, the spirit stone offering is tighter than anyone else, what is really going on, it is so slow that people vomit blood."
"Huh? Shen Jiaerlang is back, isn't he afraid of listening to gossip and going to Mr. Qiao Ru's Bamboo Forest Book House to escape the world? ”
"Oh, I heard that the young Taoist who swept the reeds is also called Erlang, maybe it's Yang Erlang?"
"Yang Erlang, Shen Erlang, they are all Erlang, but the difference is big, listening to the wind from the village over there, Yang Erlang kills people like killing dogs, as for Shen Erlang, ......"
As for Shen Erlang, naturally his daughter-in-law ran away with someone.
This group of old men in their spare time, they like to sit there fishing and chatter, today is a good day, there have been a lot of old men, watching Shen Yushan gradually get closer, the enthusiastic discussion gradually subsided.
Shen Yushan was already in the realm of enlightenment, and his five senses had been greatly improved, and the voices of these old men were all heard in his ears, but he did not get angry, and walked very calmly.
At this moment, Shen Yushan faintly had an intuition, the collapsed-nosed Taoist Ma Chunliang was by no means simple.
Shen Yushan returned to the City God Temple worriedly, his eyes lowered, and he always thought in his heart, what did the portrait outlined by sacrificial wine mean?
Thinking about things in his heart, Shen Yushan didn't look at the road ahead carefully, and without paying attention, Qingmei flashed out from the corner and collided with Shen Yushan.
There was a thud, like the sound of stuffy gourds filled with water hitting each other.
Qingmei's two arms were imperceptibly propped up on her chest, imprisoning the slightly swaying white jade gourd, her cheeks climbed up a little red, and she scolded: "Second master, why don't you look at the road." ”
Shen Yushan was even more unbearable than Qingmei, and when he realized what the soft thing he had just bumped into him was, he immediately blushed, although he had been married, he hadn't come that far after all.
Shen Yushan's words were like a string of pearls that had dropped the line, and he said intermittently: "It's not good...... I'm sorry, Qingmei, I'm ...... I didn't pay attention. ”
Qingmei pouted, seeing Shen Yushan's appearance, she knew that the other party didn't mean it, so she had no choice but to eat this secret loss.
"Did the second master go home to live?" Qingmei diverted the topic.
Shen Yushan's blush subsided a little, and he nodded.
Qingmei was excited and curious and asked, "Second Master, you lived on Zhushan last night, did you ever see the Reedbo fire?" ”
Shen Yushan was stunned, half puzzled and half strange, and asked: "Are you talking about someone burning the reeds last night and picking up the Shuizhai Lake bandits?" Why do you care about this? ”
Qingmei said obsessively: "I heard that it is a young Taoist leader, hoeing the strong and helping the weak, and the hero is invincible." Moreover, he was amiable and did not force persecution, but made the silver buy the fire with the villagers, and afterwards the villagers wanted to return the money, but he waved his hand and fled from the darkness. ”
"This is a hundred times more chivalrous than in the play, a thousand times, real people and real things! Maybe it's embarrassing to say that, but if you can be extremely lucky to be around such a character, even if you can't...... But even if it is serving tea and water, washing feet and rubbing backs, Qingmei is satisfied, and there is nothing to ask for in this life. ”
Shen Yushan touched his face unconsciously, Qingmei didn't know who the young Taoist Yang Erlang was, but he knew it himself, and suddenly he was praised in person, and his face was a little embarrassed.
"Alright, I'll go back to my room."
Shen Yushan waved his hand and fled.
Back in the room, Shen Yushan unloaded the bookcase, walked to the bed, and leaned over to dig out a futon from under the bed.
The futon was unfolded, and Shen Yushan saw the shocking five fine holes on the futon again, which were the finger holes that were pierced by the human hand.
"If I hadn't been in the Netherworld Courtyard at that time, if I happened to be sleeping in this bed, I'm afraid I would have been poked in the heart and died."
Shen Yushan's face was cold, a large part of the reason why he went to live in the Bamboo Forest Book House was because of this.
Someone wants to kill him, and he doesn't know who the other person is.
However, today, when he saw Ma Chunliang, a Taoist priest with a collapsed nose, and there was a warning from the painting of sacrificial wine, Shen Yushan felt more and more that Ma Chunliang had a problem, he had no evidence, but a faint feeling of palpitations.
Ma Chunliang already knew that he was going home, would he come to kill him again tonight?
Shen Yushan's heart picked up, and he felt more and more that a great terror of life and death was coming.
In the final analysis, Shen Yushan is just a fledgling teenager, he has never even left Bridge Town, Ma Chunliang has traveled all over the world, and no place in the youth's strength, heart, and experience can compete with him.
"Woohoo."
Shen Yushan closed his eyes and sighed deeply, he seemed to be safe, but in fact, his heart had already lost ground, he faintly felt that the killing opportunity was coming, but he didn't know how to dismantle it.
"Fortunately, I still have a cheap master."
"Drink the order, Linyuan."
