Volume 2 Rivers, Lakes and Seas Chapter 30 The undercurrent is surging and foggy
Bai Ling walked quickly to the man in black, pinched the face of the man in black with one hand, pulled out the branch that his senior sister had stuffed inside, and then put his finger into his mouth, groped very brutally, and then threw the branch away, saying, "There is no poison." ”
Daoist Zhang Qu rushed up with an arrow, he had already killed red eyes, his eyes were bloodshot, he pushed away Bai Ling, raised his sword and stabbed at the man in black, the tall and fat Daoist who was covered in blood had calmed down after the man in black retreated, and at this time rushed up and grabbed Daoist Zhang Qu's hand, and shouted: "Zhang Qu!" ”
I saw that Daoist Zhang Qu was shocked, his eyes returned to clarity in an instant, he stiffly put down the sword in his hand, and suddenly two lines of tears rolled down.
The tall and fat Taoist priest asked the only remaining young Taoist priest to help Zhang Qu to rest, and he stayed behind, held the sword in his hand, and arched his hand towards us: "Thank you for your help, in Xia Longhu Mountain Shi Lu, I heard that Bai Daochang also shot when he captured the thief girl before, I am grateful." Zhang Qu lost his beloved apprentice, and some of them were out of control, please understand. ”
Bai Ling was pushed by Zhang Qu, and his face was unhappy, but this Shi Lu's words were soft, so he couldn't hate it, after all, he didn't stretch out his hand to hit the smiling person, so he gave up, turned around and pointed to the black-clothed man on the ground and asked, "Who are these people?" How dare you kill you all? ”
Shi Lu gritted his teeth and said: "It may be that the accomplices of the thief girl of Hualiumen are all outlaws who lick blood on the tip of the knife, they are very arrogant, after they rescued the thief girl, they didn't care about the name of Longhu Mountain, and they were bound to let us die here." ”
After hearing this, Bai Ling squatted down and rolled up the sleeves of the man in black, only to see that there was a peach-like blood-colored tattoo on his arm, and Bai Ling said: "It's a person from Hualiumen, this is the special symbol of Hualiumen." ”
Grandpa Gan also came forward to observe, but suddenly said, "I'm afraid not, it's fake." With that, he poured some water on his fingers and rubbed it vigorously on the arm of the man in black, and there was a red gelatinous substance rubbed off.
Then Grandpa Gan said: "The mark of the flower willow door is a tattoo, and this is pasted." ”
Shi Lu's eyes widened, and even Zhang Qu and the young Taoist priest on the side looked up in unison.
"How...... Could it be that they are not from Hualiumen at all? So what is the purpose of their attack on us under the guise of Hualiumen? Shi Lu asked incredulously.
Bai Ling thought for a few seconds and asked, "Daoist Shi, may I ask how your disciple who was killed by that woman before died?" ”
"This ......" Shi Lu's eyes wandered, as if there was something unspeakable, but he thought about it and said it, "That disciple went out to look for flowers and willows, was plotted by someone, and was exposed to the wilderness, and when we found it, it had been gnawed and mutilated. ”
"It looks like it was a premeditated attack." Grandpa said and looked at Bai Ling.
Bai Ling also nodded in agreement with Grandpa Gan's conjecture: "That's right, with the death of a person, lead to the tracking of several elites of Longhu Mountain, and then set up an ambush to kill, the plan is very obvious, but what is their purpose, to weaken the strength of Longhu Mountain?" ”
Zhang Qu sneered, looked at the man in black with blood-red eyes, and said, "Hmph, weakened? My Dragon and Tiger Mountain is the first of the four famous mountains of Taoism, the four palaces and 36 views of the Heavenly Master's Dao, tens of thousands of disciples, and the four great heavenly masters, even if all six of us die here, it is just a grasshopper shaking the tree, but it will cause monstrous anger! ”
Bai Ling pursed his lips when he heard this, with a disdainful expression.
"Could it be that the water is leading to disaster? Someone wants to use the hand of Longhu Mountain to eradicate Hualiumen? Shi Lu said.
Grandpa Gan nodded and said, "It is very likely that although Hualiumen is powerful, it is low-key, and he has never dared to provoke the famous and decent people in the open." ”
"Could it be that all the women in the dust who obstructed it were not from Hualiumen?" Bai Ling asked.
That's right, I still remember that the charming woman said hello, and a large group of wind and dust women sacrificed their lives to help, it is impossible that these wind and dust women are not from Hualiumen, this probability is really small.
"Hualiumen has a lot of personnel, and I don't rule out the possibility of being beaten inside." Grandpa said.
For a while, the fog was heavy, which made Shi Lu angry, grabbed the neck of the man in black, and asked through gritted teeth, "Who are you?" ”
The man in black suddenly grinned, and recited an incomprehensible incantation in his mouth, only to see his abdomen suddenly swell like an inflated balloon.
Grandpa shouted, "Be careful! ”
A few of us ran backwards without hesitation, flying into the bushes, I saw Bai Ling raise his hand at the moment of retreat, pinched a finger, the mountain pioneer who was squatting nearby and didn't know what to do, instantly turned into a black line and shot at Bai Ling's arm, and the black tattoo appeared on Bai Ling's arm again.
Before I could stabilize myself, I heard a loud bang, and the blood mist rose into the sky, and countless debris turned into a torrential rain, crackling and scattered all over the ground, and a strong fishy smell permeated the air, making people sick.
I was so frightened that I kept holding my head, this person was so desperate that he exploded himself, and I didn't dare to imagine that there would be such crazy people in this world, what is the difference between them and terrorists.
At this time, I heard Bai Ling asking his godfather on the side, "What was he reading just now?" ”
"It seems to be in the southwest, I don't understand." Grandpa said.
Bai Ling scolded twice and said no more.
Even the angry Taoist priest of Longhu Mountain was frightened by this scene, and his original anger turned into a face full of shock.
Grandpa Gan suddenly said: "I'm afraid there is an undercurrent surging in the circle!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of the previous wooden whistle again in the distance, far and near.
We stood up from the bushes, and I glanced at the position of the man in black out of the corner of my eye, and saw only a blood-red patch, and immediately gave up the idea of looking at what was going on, I still had to eat.
My sister also put her arm on my shoulder, forcibly not looking at the scene behind me.
Bai Ling and Grandpa Gan glanced at each other, and Grandpa Gan said to Shi Lu: "Daoist Shi, it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time. ”
Shi Lu thought for a moment and asked, "Where are you going?" ”
"An island in Taihu Lake, in Gusu, what about you?" Grandpa replied.
"We're going to take the remains of our fellow disciples to a nearby contact point to fix them and avoid the limelight, and then go back to Longhu Mountain." Shi Lu said.
"Okay, let's leave it at that, take care all the way." Grandpa Gan said, arching his hand towards the three Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain.
Since we want to separate, there is nothing to greet.
They also returned the salute, and Shi Lu said: "Thank you for your help, we will report this situation again in the future." ”
The three of them said goodbye and turned to leave.
And we rushed to Huang without looking back
From a distance, we saw Huang standing at the door of our house and looking at us, and when he saw us appear, he asked, "I heard something explode!" What happened? ”
Grandpa didn't say a word, but beckoned: "Get on the boat!" ”
When Huang Laohan saw Grandpa Gan's expression, he immediately understood that the matter was urgent, so he took his baggage and took us to the abandoned Xiaomei Wharf.
When we arrived at the dock, he lit an iron lamp that was a bit like Lao Qian's soul-attracting lamp, and asked us to wait a while, then turned around and ran to an abandoned container at the dock, groped in his pocket, and took out a pile of paper and pencils.
I saw that after Huang Laohan left, four or five figures came out of the container in the darkness and looked towards us.
At that moment, my heart moved slightly.
The light stretched the thin figure of Huang Laohan very long, but I felt that he suddenly became taller.
Huang Laohan hurriedly led us to a fishing boat, let us get on the boat, and then he untied the rope and jumped up.
This fishing boat is a little old, very dilapidated, the fish compartment at the stern is sealed with iron sheets, and the bow of the ship has a rest cabin in addition to the cockpit, with stools, which can accommodate five or six people, so we are all crowded inside, but Bai Ling seems to be a little dirty, did not sit, and slipped outside after standing for a while.
Huang Laohan lit the engine, the diesel engine rumbled, the stern suddenly rose black smoke, and the fishing boat slowly sailed towards the calm lake.
After sailing, I felt the cloth bag move slightly, and hurriedly opened it to see, but it was the little fox who woke up.
I was surprised and delighted, holding it is a good intimacy, to be honest, I really like this little fox demon from the bottom of my heart, it is not only extraordinary, but also has a special charm that cats and dogs do not have, making people unable to extricate themselves, falling deeper and deeper.
At this time, Bai Ling asked about Huang Laohan's children outside.
Huang Laohan didn't answer at first, and Bai Ling couldn't help but complain: "You won't even ask for money for this question!" ”
He realized that we had already guessed something, so he whispered: "They are all street children I brought back from the street, the youngest is only four years old, and the oldest is only ten years old, because the family is too small to live in, so I remodeled the container to give them a place to live." ”
After finishing speaking, I heard Bai Ling let out a long sigh, took a few banknotes from his pocket, and stuffed them into Huang Laohan's pocket.
Huang Laohan looked at it and said with a cold face: "What does this mean?" I don't want charity! ”
Bai Ling was also not angry, and said, "Don't you charge money for your ship's voyage?" ”
Huang Laohan was stunned for a moment, remembered this stubble, and said angrily: "I want to collect it, but I don't need to do so much." ”
Bai Ling had a straight face, and his tone was not polite at all: "Won't the price be raised when doing business?" I have money anyway. ”
Huang Laohan wanted to say a word, but in the end he didn't refuse Bai Ling's kindness.
However, we couldn't help but laugh as we listened to the anxious conversation between the two people, and felt that these two people, who were more than a hundred years old together, were inexplicably a little cute.
At this time, I saw that layers of light mist began to rise on the dark lake outside the boat.
