Chapter 370: Midnight Shift
Wu Zhiyuan subconsciously retracted his hand, and at the same time, the peachwood sword was horizontal in front of his chest, as a defensive momentum, and when he turned his head, he saw that Yu Yisu had already jumped a meter away.
Seeing Wu Zhiyuan's disdainful gaze, Yu Yisu didn't mind, his mouth turned towards the coffin, and motioned for Wu Zhiyuan to continue to open it.
Wu Zhiyuan sighed helplessly, and reached out to lift the coffin lid again, but before the outstretched hand touched the outer wall of the coffin, he saw that the coffin lid suddenly slid to the side, revealing a narrow slit, through the gap, only the inside of the coffin could be seen to be pitch black. Immediately afterwards, a withered hand stretched out from the dark coffin, and the five fingers fumbled and grabbed the edge of the coffin lid, and slowly pushed the coffin lid to the side, and a person immediately sat up inside.
"Master!" Wu Zhiyuan recognized at a glance that it was none other than his master sitting in the coffin, the god of ceres, known as the king of beggars, and couldn't help but be taken aback.
Yu Yisu also took a step forward suddenly, looked at Ceres with a surprised face, opened his mouth wide but couldn't speak.
Gu Shen stretched his waist, opened his sleepy eyes and glanced at Wu Zhiyuan, and then looked at Yu Yisu on the side, as if he was not surprised by the arrival of the two, he yawned, and said indifferently: "Are you back?" ”
Wu Zhiyuan looked at Yu Yisu, but saw that Yu Yisu's stunned expression quickly turned into a hippie smile, he bent down and looked at the Gu Shen sitting in the coffin and said, "Master, the apprentice is back." ”
The god of grains squinted at Yu Yisu, did not speak, held the edge of the coffin with both hands, and tried to step out of the coffin with difficulty, Yu Yisu was quick to move, and hurriedly stepped forward to hold the god of grains, pulled him out of the coffin, and said: "Master, after so many years, your old man's habit of sleeping in coffins has not changed." ”
Although the god of Ceres is old, his personality is cynical, which Wu Zhiyuan deeply understands, but at this time, in front of Yisu, he is calm and majestic. Hearing Yu Yisu's words, Gu Shen sneered with a cold expression: "After so many years, when has your habit of being cheated and abducted changed?" ”
Yu Yisu scratched his head in shame, and did not answer, in fact, he had nothing to answer. Gu Shen didn't ask, but turned to Wu Zhiyuan and asked, "It's smooth along the way, right?" ”
Wu Zhiyuan said in his heart when he heard this: "I asked knowingly." But he said: "It's quite smooth, but those customers haven't been sent to Liuyin Village yet, because they were infected with corpse poison, they were cremated by me on the spot." When he said this, Wu Zhiyuan was confident, and his master may have known the beginning and end of the matter for a long time, but now he is just acting like this.
"Dust to dust, dust to dust, let them go." The god of grains really didn't show any surprise, but turned around casually, stretched out his hand and groped in the coffin for a long time, and took out a wine gourd, the gourd was already polished because he carried it, it was the one that Wu Zhiyuan tied around his waist when he first saw him at the foot of Longshan.
When Wu Zhiyuan saw the wine gourd, his heart flashed with inspiration, and he asked with a smile: "Master, what is the best thing in the world to soak in wine?" ”
Hearing this, Gu Shen's eyes lit up, and he seemed to really see a jar of fine wine in front of him, and said without thinking: "Tiger bone dragon scales are the best wine brewing thing in the world. He was addicted to alcohol, and when he talked about wine, he naturally talked eloquently, and was about to do a detailed analysis of the "tiger bone dragon scales", but was interrupted by Wu Zhiyuan's questioning.
"How does the python scale wine brewed by Shigong taste?" Wu Zhiyuan looked at Gu Shen meaningfully and smiled.
Gu Shen was stunned when he heard this, but he immediately came back to his senses from the shock and understood that Wu Zhiyuan had discovered his identity in the Five Elements Phantom Array at that time, but at this time, Wu Zhiyuan did not directly expose his identity, so he didn't say anything, just laughed a few times, Wu Zhiyuan also smiled slightly, and the two of them tacitly understood this matter.
The god of grains moved his legs and feet in the same place, obviously nested in the coffin for a long time, his legs and feet were a little sore, Yu Yisu's eyes were sharp, and he hurriedly stepped forward to help the god of grains to sit down and beat his shoulders for him.
Ceres closed his eyes with great enjoyment and praised: "Well, the craftsmanship has improved compared to half a year ago. ”
Yu Yisu said with a smile: "Master, if you like it, apprentice, I will beat your shoulders for you every day in the future." ”
Hearing this, the god of Ceres suddenly opened his eyes, as if he had expected Yu Yisu's words, and said with a smile: "This is very good, from today onwards, you don't want to go anywhere, and in the future, you will stay in Yizhuang every day and beat my shoulder every day." ”
The smile on Yu Yisu's face suddenly froze and turned into a bitter gourd face.
Wu Zhiyuan looked at the open and secret battle between the words of the master and apprentice, and felt funny in his heart, and a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.
"Don't be idle." Gu Shen looked at Wu Zhiyuan, pretending to be stern and said, "From today onwards, you will sleep during the day and go out to work at night. ”
"Dry ...... Work? The smile on Wu Zhiyuan's face also froze, he didn't expect that his master would also arrange work for him.
"Hmm." The god of grains replied in a long voice, like that of an old pedant in a school, "There is a wooden box under the table in the back room, you can bring it out for me." ”
Wu Zhiyuan answered, walked into the inner room, and sure enough, he saw a wooden box under the table, the wooden box was covered with a thick layer of dust, he didn't care about wiping off the dust on it, and directly carried the wooden box to the hall and put it in front of the god of ceres.
"Open." A wicked smile tugged at the corners of Ceres' mouth.
Wu Zhiyuan looked up at Yu Yisu who was standing behind Ceres, and saw that the latter was staring at the wooden box curiously, as if he didn't know what was inside the wooden box. Wu Zhiyuan hesitated for a moment, reached out and opened the buckle of the wooden box, and then lifted the lid.
I thought that there would be something frightening and strange inside, but when I opened the lid of the box, Wu Zhiyuan saw a red envelope inside the wooden box, and a thread-shaped book was placed on the bag.
I don't know what is in the baggage, but Wu Zhiyuan recognizes the thread-bound book, looking at the process of binding, he knows that it is the masterpiece of Shigong Gushen without asking, and the appearance of this book is no different from the Maoshan hand-copied notebook he gave himself before.
"Open the baggage." Ceres continued to say in a long voice.
Wu Zhiyuan paused, reached out and took out the book and put it aside, took out the baggage again, and opened it. When the burden was fully opened, Wu Zhiyuan saw clearly what was inside the baggage, which turned out to be a bangzi and a gong.
"This is a bang and a gong for playing more?" Wu Zhiyuan recognized that the bangzi and the gong were the tools used by the husband to fight the shift, and he looked at the god of grains with a confused expression, not understanding why the master let him take out these two things.
"Hmm." The god of Ceres said in a wandering manner, "From tonight onwards, you will take this bang and this gong and go to the city to fight." ”
"What?" Wu Zhiyuan was surprised when he heard this, and said in his heart, isn't this work done by a fifty or sixty-year-old uncle? He is a young man, and he actually goes to work as a watchman for a living? Moreover, this does not seem to have anything to do with learning Maoshan Taoism.
