Chapter 20: The Smell of Blood
I relied on the crazy old man by my side, although I felt strange, but I was not afraid, and sneered: "Crazy old man, how did this guy grow up after being beaten?" It can't be swollen, right? ”
The crazy old man glanced at me and snorted coldly, "Now that you have a tongue, when you see its entity, don't tie your tongue." ”
I was stunned for a moment, and blurted out, "This isn't its entity yet?" ”
The crazy old man ignored me, but just swept the middle-aged family of three who had been frightened unconscious from the corner of his eye, and there was a look of worry in his eyes. I understood as soon as I saw it, the few hands that the crazy old man showed just now were just to teach me that the real battle was only starting now.
And the place where the middle-aged family of three is located, just far away from us and the white fish, the crazy old man's means I have seen just now, how the white fish is also a demon, it should not be far off, and when it will fight, I am afraid that this family of three will suffer from the pond fish.
As soon as I thought of this, my mind turned sharply, and several plans flashed in an instant, but none of them could be established, and my heart was very anxious.
At this moment, the white fish was already furious, it didn't care whether the family of three lived or died, one mouth was a water arrow, as thick as a dragon pillar, only attacking us.
The mad old man hurriedly stretched out his hand to pat the ground, and a wall of earth rose from the ground and blocked us. I gritted my teeth, quickly formed a dirt mark with my hand, and reached out to pat the ground, and a wall of earth rose in front of the family of three, which could prevent them from being splashed by water arrows.
The crazy old man turned his head to look at me, his eyes were full of approval, and nodded, "Not bad! ”
These two words made me excited for a while, I have known the crazy old man for a few days, and it is the first time I have heard him praise me, and I have never said a good word before either sarcastically or directly reaching out to nail my head.
The white fish was attacked by a series of attacks, and he was already furious, how could he give us time to speak, and as soon as he opened his mouth, a column of water turned into a flood of water arrows and struck again, and the targets were still me and the crazy old man.
This time, I learned to be obedient, and first used the earth technique to protect the family of three, and left the rest to the crazy old man. The crazy old man had no worries, and sure enough, his expression was much more relaxed, he broke the water arrow casually, and said without looking back: "It's not easy to use in this house, you protect that family of three, and I'll get this thing out." ”
As he spoke, his gestures changed rapidly, and many rattan-like objects quickly drilled out of the ground, weaving them into a box, and in the blink of an eye, the white fish was packed into it. Then the gesture changed again, and a water dragon roared out, rushed to the front of the box, swallowed it in one gulp, turned around and rushed out the door, and flew straight out of the village.
The crazy old man swaggered out, I hurriedly ran over to help the middle-aged man up, pinched and rubbed his chest, and finally he woke up, briefly told the matter, got up and ran, I didn't want to miss the opportunity to see the excitement.
But as soon as he ran out of the door, he almost bumped into the crazy old man who was walking back, and was suddenly surprised: "Solved? ”
The crazy old man nodded, and said nonchalantly: "It's solved!" ”
I was immediately angry, it was only a matter of a few minutes, and it was solved, and this game was too fast, so I missed an opportunity to visit and learn.
The crazy old man didn't care about this, went in and greeted the family, declined the middle-aged man's monetary reward, turned around and went home, I walked two steps, but turned around and came back, approached the middle-aged man and said, "If you really want to thank us, I'll tell you a secret, my master loves chicken." ”
The middle-aged man was not a fool, and as soon as he heard me say this, he immediately went to catch a few chickens, and said that he was sorry, a few chickens were too few, and it was not enough to repay us for saving his daughter.
I wasn't polite, I took a few chickens and took my leave, which was so good that I didn't have to steal it.
When I got home, the crazy old man saw the chicken in my hand, and immediately smiled, and rushed to kill the chicken to cook, not that he became diligent, but my cooking skills are really not very good, in the words of the crazy old man, I just don't want to spoil the ingredients.
The next day, we drove away the evil spirits for the girl, and it spread, and in the next period of time, my family was unprecedentedly lively, and it almost became a concentration of the villagers in the village.
More than a month has passed, and three days will be my eighteenth birthday, and the crazy old man doesn't know that the tendon is on the wrong line again, saying that he is going out to give me the whole birthday present, and he went out early in the morning.
As soon as the crazy old man left, two people came, a tall and thin young man, estimated to be about the same age as me, with long hair almost covering his eyes, his face was very delicate, he was dressed in a black tunic very decent, black leather shoes, just a cold face, his whole body exuded a cold smell, and there was an indescribable arrogance.
The other is a big beauty, with long flaxen hair, willow eyebrows, red phoenix eyes, Qiong nose and pink cheeks, red lips and teeth, and she is also wearing a black Mao suit, but it is a pity that she has a good figure. Although this woman is beautiful, her expression is even more cold and arrogant than that of the young man, and the cold aura emanating from her body makes the villagers sitting at the door unconsciously get out of the way.
As soon as I saw these two people, I knew that they were not from the nearby countryside, and we rarely saw them here just by dressing like this, so I didn't know what was going on for a while, so I hurriedly stepped forward and said, "...... two?" ”
The young man looked at me coldly, did not speak, his eyes were full of coldness, which made my heart chill unconsciously, and I inexplicably had a sense of fear, and subconsciously took a step back.
The woman also looked at me and said, "We're looking for Shuhai Peak." "It's simple and direct, after saying a word, he rushes in, as if he doesn't want to talk nonsense with me at all.
This makes me very angry, there are more people looking for crazy old men these days, but I have never encountered this, this is my home, it is very rude to break in without my consent, and these two people don't seem to take me seriously at all, this feeling is very unpleasant.
At that moment, he stretched out his hand and said, "My master has gone out, if there is anything to ask my master, wait for him to come back!" When I said the word "ask", I especially accentuated the tone, the meaning is very simple, you are here to ask for someone, you have to be polite.
Since many people have come to the crazy old man for help during this time, I thought that this young man and woman were none other than one of them, but the family was probably a little better, maybe the children of the town.
After I finished speaking, the young man suddenly took a step, reached out and touched his nose, and said in a deep voice, "Your master? Shu Haifeng is your master? When he spoke, his face became even more cold, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
My heart was beating wildly, just when the young man reached out to touch his nose, I obviously smelled a strong smell of blood, I don't know if anyone else smelled it, but I really smelled it, the strong smell of blood, disgusting.
He must have killed someone! Somehow, this thought popped into my mind, and it kept reminding me.
I lowered my head in a panic, avoided his cold eyes, and nodded, "Yes, Mr. Shu is my master, if you have anything, you can also tell me." ”
The man didn't speak, but took another step closer, and the smell of blood was stronger, accompanied by a powerful cold aura, which swept towards me like a cloud. I resisted the feeling of almost gagging, and my legs shook unconsciously, and I vaguely felt that the person in front of me was like a demon from hell.
I didn't dare to look at the man's eyes, and I didn't have to, I could clearly feel that this man was full of hostility towards me, and I was 100% sure that he definitely wanted to kill me.
However, today is the first time I have seen him, before this, there has been no meeting at all, and all the hostility of the other party has only erupted after hearing me say that he is Mr. Tree's apprentice, there is no doubt that this person must be Mr. Tree's enemy.
I suddenly remembered my father, Mr. Tree's relationship with his father is so good, Mr. Tree's enemy, that is, his father's enemy, I don't know if my father's death has anything to do with the young man in front of him who exudes a strong smell of blood? If my father died at the hands of this man, I would not doubt that he had the ability.
I'm even ready to fight back, and although I'm scared, I'll fight back if he attacks me.
At this time, the young woman with a frosty face walked over, stepped into the middle of us in a flash, turned her head and said, "Ma Pingchuan, before Shu Haifeng comes back, you'd better not mess around, the result is not something you and I can afford." ”
The young man was slightly stunned, then took a step back, put his hands in his pants pockets, the chill in his eyes slowly dissipated, he lowered his head and stopped talking, and the smell of blood on his body gradually faded until he could no longer smell it.
Seeing this, the woman seemed to be relieved, turned around and pulled the man outside, and said as she walked: "We will wait outside the village, and when Shu Haifeng comes back, you tell him that Ma Pingchuan and Xue Bing have come." ”
I nodded, "I'll tell him." ”
Of course, I will tell the crazy old man that this young man is too dangerous, and from the hostility he showed just now, he will not have any good intentions for us, if the situation is not right, then we have to run quickly, I don't know why, I still had the courage to fight back just now, but now I don't even dare to have the idea of confronting that young man.
The people at the door got out of the way one after another, and a few of the timid ones even trembled, although they were ordinary people, they could also see that these two people were unusual, not to mention, the hostility that the young man had shown to me just now, everyone could see it clearly.
