Chapter 503: Seven-Leated Wolf Tooth Arrow
Silly boy? Mr. Chi is dozens of rounds older than Uncle Wan and doesn't know it, but now he is called a stupid child, and he doesn't know what he should feel in his heart.
Seeing that the customers in the yard were almost scattered, I said to Uncle Wan, "If it's okay, I'll go back first." ”
Uncle Wan's attention was all on Mr. Chi, and when he heard me say this, he came back to his senses: "Oh, okay, you can get busy first, and come to chat with me when you have time later." ”
I smiled, turned around and walked away.
To say that during this time, I went to Uncle Wan's roast duck restaurant to inquire about the situation not once or twice, and I never felt anything unusual when I came before, but this time, I felt a little uncomfortable in my heart, but I couldn't tell what was wrong.
As soon as I returned to the old Shijia store, Practical turned his head to me and asked, "Is there a situation?" ”
I thought about it for a moment and said, "Doesn't seem like anything?" ”
Practical frowned: "What do you mean?" ”
I said, "I always feel like something is wrong, but I can't tell what went wrong." By the way, the business of the roast duck restaurant is a bit deserted today, with only a few customers sporadically. ”
Practical seemed to think of something, and immediately asked, "What kind of guest?" ”
When he asked, I didn't know how to answer: "That's it...... It's the guest who bought the roast duck, what's wrong? ”
I didn't explain much practically, so I quickly removed the sleeves and ran towards the door of the store, and I didn't dare to hesitate, so I immediately followed.
He rushed all the way to the gate of the compound, and then he kept looking at the road.
I was curious, so I asked him on the side: "Sixth uncle, what are you looking for?" ”
Practical let out a long sigh from his nose, turned his head and said to me without a beginning or an end: "With your dim sum machine, sooner or later you will be eaten so much that there are no bones left!" Look at your phone, did the second master text him? ”
I put my phone on silent before, and now when I take it out, I see that there are more than a dozen text messages in the text box, needless to say, they must all be sent by the second master.
The first time he called, I didn't answer, he would definitely send a text message over, asking me to go back and call him back, I didn't reply to this text message, I guess the messages sent later, are all scolding me.
So, I'm not going to open it and look at it.
Practical leaned over and glanced at the phone screen, and then said to me, "The scorching dust is coming." ”
"How did you know he was coming?"
"Call you stupid, you really don't use your brain! You don't want to think about it, Lao Wanjia's business has been very good, why has it become deserted today? ”
"Your consciousness is that Burning Dust has done something in his shop?"
"It's not in his shop, it's in the whole north of the city. He must have done a great trick to intercept the fortunes of various merchants in the North District, but anyone who hides demons in his home will not have any business for a whole day. The customers you saw in Lao Wan's store just now were all people who burned the dust, and they just sensed something abnormal and came here to check the situation. ”
"So what now? It's really not good, let's send Mr. Chi out of the city, right? ”
Hearing me say this, Practical became anxious on the spot: "If you want me to say it a few times before you understand, Zhuochenzi came to Bohai Bay to capture the fox demon, this is originally an internal matter of their Chiyun Peak, and the time has not yet come, so they must not interfere." ”
I was also a little annoyed: "You always say that the time has not come, and I really don't understand what you are thinking." Could it be that we can't wait until Mr. Chi is killed by the scorching dust before we can make a move? ”
Practical was about to speak, but unexpectedly, a turbid breath came up, pressing down on his lungs, followed by a rapid cough.
I hurried up and gently patted him on the back to give him a soothing.
It took a moment for Utility to recover, and then he waved his hand and motioned for me not to slap anymore.
I took out a pack of tissues from my pocket and handed it to him, and as he wiped his mouth, he said to me, "If not, don't forget, your biggest opponent now is not Burning Dust, but Rou. In Bohai Bay, there are eyeliner everywhere, even if you want to secretly send the fox demon away, you can hide it from the burning dust for a while, but sooner or later you will tell him the truth. When the time comes, if he goes to the house, how will you end up? What would you do if they were to put pressure on you through this? Have you thought about all of this? ”
I nodded: "I've thought about all of this, but I'm just ...... I just don't want to watch Mr. Chi suffer like this, his nature is not bad, and he shouldn't suffer such a catastrophe. ”
Practical stared at me for a while, and suddenly smiled: "Don't worry, with me, I won't let the old fox make a mistake." ”
I sighed, "Okay, I believe you. ”
Practical still seemed a little uneasy, and then said: "Since you believe in me, then you listen to me, and ...... at the right time."
"Oh, I know, you must not meddle until the time comes."
"If you know, it's good."
After speaking, Practical glanced at the road again, and finally shook his head and walked into the compound of the Food Bureau.
I followed back to the store, and then I was chopping and washing vegetables, busy with things, and I didn't mention a word about Mr. Chi's affairs, practicality, since I chose to trust him, I kept suppressing the doubts in my heart and didn't ask any more questions.
During this period, I will light up the screen of my mobile phone from time to time, and the small number on the text message box is still growing, and it is estimated that if the second master appears in front of me now, he will definitely eat me.
At night, the old alley was brightly lit, and Practical dismissed the guys early, sitting alone in the yard, looking at the starry sky in a daze.
I came out with a few plates, put the rice on the table, and asked, "Burning dust is coming soon, right?" ”
Practical didn't answer, but just asked me: "How long has it been since the second master sent you a message?" ”
"The last text message came at around seven o'clock, and I haven't been contacted since."
Practical smiled helplessly and picked up the chopsticks casually.
I refused to give up, and asked again, "Burning dust is coming soon, right?" ”
Practical raised his brow and cast a glance at me, "Wait." ”
After a while, he asked me again, "You've been here for a while, and you haven't noticed anything wrong?" ”
I said, "How not." If I'm not mistaken, except for Uncle Wan and the boss of the hot pot restaurant, the people who do business here are all half-clear, right? ”
Practical smiled: "Actually, you're not stupid, but sometimes you can't calm down, and you're too anxious." ”
I frowned: "When is the Burning Dust coming?" ”
Practical: "What are you anxious about?" ”
"I just don't worry about Mr. Chi."
"It's useless to worry about it all the time, so let's calm down and eat well."
As he spoke, he moved his chopsticks and ate silently, I didn't have much appetite, so I sat dryly and let the time pass little by little.
At a little after nine o'clock, the diners in the compound left in twos and threes, the shops were closed, and the lights in the night sky dimmed little by little.
Practical cleared the last dish, slowly stood up, looked at the night sky and said, "Here comes one." ”
I couldn't help but wonder, "Here is one?" What do you mean? ”
Practical said: "The scorching dust is coming." ”
Before she could finish speaking, I felt a strong aura rise in the compound.
I could sense the spirit, and of course I could sense it, and he immediately ran to the kitchen and turned off the light, and then ran to the small room on the west side of the courtyard, and took out an ironwood bow and a quiver.
The bow was very old, but it was very well maintained, and if it weren't for the fragrance emanating from the bow, it wouldn't have been an antiquity at all. Twenty-three feathers were inserted upside down in the quiver, and delicate sigils could be seen on each one.
Practical pulled out an arrow, and by the moonlight, I took a closer look at the arrow, and saw that the blade was toothed, and there was a narrow barb behind the blade.
When I first came to the store, I saw the words "Shijia Old Store", and I felt that there was a flash of inspiration in my head, but it was only a flash, and I wanted to capture it, but this spiritual light disappeared in the blink of an eye.
It wasn't until I saw this arrow that I suddenly remembered that this was the seven-edged wolf tooth arrow mentioned in the classics of the Yan family, and from ancient times to the present, only the Lingnan Shi family could create such a thing.
Like the Yu family, the Lingnan Shi family was also born in a military family, as early as before the Tang and Song dynasties, the name of the Shi family in the industry, and even once overshadowed the Yu family, but at the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, most of the Shi family died in the Battle of Yashan, and then gradually declined.
At this time, Practical had already condensed a telekinesis, and carefully injected the telekinesis into the cluster of arrows.
After getting along with him for so long, it was the first time I saw him condense his mental power, and I have to say that the purity of his mental power and practicality have far surpassed that of my eldest uncle and son, and this cultivation is definitely second to none in the entire family.
Even if he didn't have this cultivation, just relying on the archery skills of the Shi family's ancestors was enough for him to lay down a world in his business.
My sixth uncle is hiding deep enough.
It wasn't until all the twenty-three wolf's tooth arrows were injected into the telekinesis that Practical Man carefully pushed open the courtyard door and took me to the mouth of the alley on tiptoe.
He pressed himself against the brick wall on the left side of the alley, poked his head out to look outside, and then turned back to me and made a silent gesture.
I also slowly approached the intersection and looked into the courtyard, the moon was bright and clear, and there was no one in the huge courtyard.
Not long after, there was a sound of hurried footsteps in the alley next door, and Uncle Wan came out of the alley at a trot, and before he could run far, he stopped again, turned around and shouted at the alley: "What's the matter, come out." ”
Then I heard Mr. Chi respond in the alley: "I'...... I can't get out! ”
"What a stupid thing this kid is saying?" Uncle Wan muttered while running to the mouth of the alley, looking at his movements, he should have stretched out his hand and went to pull Mr. Chi.
After a short while, I heard Uncle Wan shout again: "Evil Sect, why don't you move your legs?" ”
Then I heard Mr. Chi's panicked shout: "I can't move!" Old man Wan, you go quickly! ”
