Chapter 479: Roadside Strangers
"Hmm." Wu Zhiyuan agreed and nodded.
"Did you hear me wrong? How could anyone in this world have such a name? Wen Qing asked puzzled.
"I thought it was strange too, but Moon Shadow didn't give me a chance to ask at the time, and she left in a hurry. I think maybe this person's name is pronounced as the pronunciation of these three words, but not the word 'visible'. Wu Zhiyuan speculated, he suddenly remembered the question of surnames, and asked, "Do you know what surnames are the same as the characters in the hundred family names?" ”
Wen Qing thought for a while and replied: "The number of surnames in China is vast, by no means more than a hundred, the hundred family surnames only include a large number of a hundred surnames, in fact, the total number of surnames is not more than four or five hundred, and some rare surnames, such as the surname 'You', are not among the hundred family surnames at all." However, as far as I know, there are indeed surnames with the same sound as the word 'look', and I don't remember how to write it. ”
Although Wu Zhiyuan had read a lot of books, he didn't have any research on surnames, he only clearly remembered that Moon Shadow Fuxian did say the name "visible" at that time, as long as the pronunciation was accurate, he would definitely be able to find this person at that time, so he didn't look into it further.
The Nine Worms Mountain is winding and long from east to west, so when Wu Zhiyuan and Wen Qing bypassed the mountain westward and reached the opposite side of the mountain, it was already afternoon. There is a large road on the opposite side of the mountain, which seems to be an official road, and there are pedestrians walking on the road from time to time, and it is no longer as depressed as in front of the mountain.
Moon Shadow Fuxian only said that he could see it in a teahouse on the other side of the mountain, but this mountain was very long and narrow, and the official road under the mountain could not be seen at a glance, and there was no teahouse as far as the eye could see.
"Look east along the main road, maybe the teahouse is on the side of this main road." Wu Zhiyuan looked around, turned back to Wen Qing and said.
After walking for a long time, Wen Qing had already become irritable, but at this time she was helpless, if she didn't follow Wu Zhiyuan, she wouldn't be able to find the Moon Shadow Fuxian, and if she couldn't find the Moon Shadow Fuxian, she wouldn't be able to solve the Gu poison on her body.
The two walked along the main road for about four miles, but still did not see the shadow of the teahouse, and there were relatively few pedestrians on this section, and occasionally one or two walked by head-on. The people here are dressed differently from Wu Zhiyuan and Wen Qing, in ancient times, it was called the land of the Southern Barbarians, and the ethnic groups are also mostly ethnic minorities, and the clothing style of the Central Plains is still quite different.
The two of them walked for such a long time, they were a little tired, and at the same time there was a little uneasiness, I don't know if the direction they are walking is wrong, if it is wrong, it is the opposite direction, and they will not find the teahouse until dawn the next day.
When he was confused, Wu Zhiyuan saw a person sitting on the bluestone on the side of the road not far ahead, seemingly resting, and next to him was a black thing more than half a person high, which seemed to be a large porcelain jar.
Wu Zhiyuan hurriedly walked over, and saw that the other party had gray temples and was about fifty or sixty years old, about the same age as his master Zhang Zefang, so he asked respectfully: "Uncle, I'm bothered, I want to inquire with you about a place." ”
The man had been looking down at the ground under his feet, but when he heard this, he raised his head to look at Wu Zhiyuan, his expression was very indifferent, and he asked rhetorically, "Where do you want to inquire?" ”
"I want to ask, is there a teahouse in front of you?" Wu Zhiyuan asked straight to the point.
The man's face changed slightly, and his brows furrowed slightly: "What are you asking about that teahouse?" ”
Wu Zhiyuan smiled: "Don't hide it, I want to go to that teahouse to find someone." ”
The man let out an "oh" and asked, "Who are you looking for?" ”
Wu Zhiyuan thought for a while and replied: "I'm looking for someone called 'visible', I don't know if you recognize it?" ”
The man smiled contemptuously when he heard this, and then, the wrinkles on his face slowly stretched, and he suddenly laughed loudly: "Lucky for you! ”
Hearing his words, Wu Zhiyuan suddenly felt happy in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Do you really know and see it, uncle?" ”
The man slowly restrained his smile and replied indifferently, "I don't know that I know, there is no one who is more familiar with him than me." ”
Wu Zhiyuan was ecstatic in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Then please help us find it, uncle, let's see it." ”
The man snorted coldly and said, "No need to look for it again." ”
"Why?" The smile on Wu Zhiyuan's face suddenly froze, and a bad premonition swept over, could it be seen that something had happened to him?
I heard the man say coldly: "I am what you are looking for!" ”
This twist and turn made Wu Zhiyuan a little surprised, he slowed down for a moment before reacting, and said with a happy face: "It turns out that you are the visible senior we are looking for, it's really good!" ”
"Don't talk so much nonsense." I could see that he waved his hand towards Wu Zhiyuan, and said coldly, "Say, what are you looking for me?" As he spoke, he looked at Wu Zhiyuan and Wen Qing coldly, and continued, "Look at your dress, are you a foreigner?" It seemed like we were meeting for the first time. ”
Although this person had an indifferent expression and a strange attitude, Wu Zhiyuan still asked him, and he was still a person in the Moon Shadow Fuxian Sect, so Wu Zhiyuan could only greet him with a smile. Wu Zhiyuan said with a smile: "It's the first time we've come to Yunnan, and it's the first time we've met my uncle, but I didn't expect to find you so smoothly." Actually, we came to find the Lord of the Moon Shadow Gate, and she told me that as long as we found someone named Kan in the teahouse at the foot of the Nine Worms Mountain, this person would lead us to her. ”
This person in front of him is obviously a person from the Black Descending Sect, so Wu Zhiyuan tried not to expose his relationship with the Moon Shadow Fuxian in front of the disciples of the Black Descending Sect, the so-called state-owned national law, and the gang has gang rules, he didn't know what rules and precepts the Black Descending Gate had, so he didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble to the Moon Shadow Fuxian.
The man glanced at Wu Zhiyuan carefully, his eyes fell on the peachwood sword he was carrying behind him, and his expression was slightly stunned. Wu Zhiyuan had already pinned the Blood Shadow Demon Knife to his waist behind his back, so this person didn't find that Wu Zhiyuan still had the Blood Shadow Demon Knife, otherwise the expression on his face would definitely be even more shocked.
"You can take us to her now." Wen Qing saw that the person was silent, so she urged, she was not as polite as Wu Zhiyuan, and her attitude was more arrogant.
The man glanced at Wen Qing and didn't pay much attention to it. just said coldly: "Follow me." After speaking, he grabbed the big porcelain jar next to him, shook his shoulder, carried the big porcelain jar to his shoulder, turned around and walked eastward, seemingly effortlessly.
