Chapter 552: If you ask for something, you have to do something
The old blind man showed the appearance of a down-and-out scholar who was powerless from beginning to end, coupled with the sour smell revealed from time to time, he was simply a complete storyteller. This image has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the Fifth Tingyun since last night, so at this time, the old blind man suddenly became difficult, and the Fifth Tingyun and they were all caught off guard and did not react.
By the time the Fifth Tingyun and the others realized the hostility on the old blind man, Concubine Wanjian had landed accurately in the very center of the Oolong Pond. There happened to be a big whirlpool there, and Concubine Wanjian choked on two mouthfuls of water, and before she could scold, she was swept in, and she disappeared between breaths.
"I'll go down and have a look. β
Xiao Mengdie was self-assured of his water nature, and he was about to rush to Oolong Pond. But before he finished speaking, he noticed the helpless expressions on the faces of Fifth Tingyun and Lei Fengxiang. Several people turned their faces in unison, looking at the old blind man who was putting on a look of not caring about himself, they nodded to each other, and then ran to the Oolong Pond together.
"Childe, I'...... I don't know how to water. β
Bai Jie was dragged by the fifth listening cloud and ran away, shouting busily.
Fifth Tingyun didn't hesitate to take a step, followed closely behind Xiao Mengdie and Lei Fengxiang, and said, "Don't be afraid, Xiaojie." You just hold your breath and hold me tight, there is another dark river under the Oolong Pond, and I will find the entrance as soon as possible. β
Boom!
Xiao Mengdie rushed forward, jumped up, and then spun sharply, tightened her arms, and inserted herself into the water like a benchmark, only splashing slightly. Looking at Wulong Pond again, where can I still find Xiao Mengdie's shadow, he is worthy of being a prodigal son with broad knowledge of the rivers and lakes, and he knows very well how to quickly plunge into the bottom of the water.
In comparison, Lei Fengxiang's entry into the water is much rougher.
He had a strong physique, and when he came to the edge of the pool, he jumped up, without any fancy movements, just like a cannonball, and jumped into the Oolong Pond simply and directly. Taking advantage of his weight, he also sank three feet underwater, and then he broke his hands forward, his head stabbed down, and with his legs flicking, the diving speed was not slow.
Fifth, Tingyun used his right hand to pull Bai Jie onto his back. Bai Jie screamed in fright, and hurriedly hugged the fifth Tingyun with his hand, and the fifth Tingyun stepped back with his right hand, and while carrying Bai Jie, he jumped into the water without delay. They did not dare to stay on the shore any longer, because the old blind man had just shown himself a strong man, and they all felt threatened. In addition, Concubine Wanjian was forcibly thrown to Oolong Pond, the blessing and misfortune are uncertain, and they don't want to let Concubine Wanjian be alone, the situation under Oolong Pond is unknown, they go down together, how can they take care of it.
By the time the fifth hearing cloud and all of them went into the water, there was silence around the Oolong Pond.
On the hillside, only the old blind man and the boy remained.
"I'm curious, Your Excellency has been able to endure until now?"
The old blind man stood facing the Oolong Pond, the corners of his lips moving slightly. The boy was already crouching down and teasing a toad at his feet, and he took a dead branch and poked the toad's buttocks, and the toad jumped to the ground, and then stopped moving, and the boy went to poke again......
As the words fell, a figure stepped out from behind the tree three feet behind the old blind man. The man came to the other side of the old blind man with his hands behind his back, and he looked with great interest at the little boy who was playing with the toad, but did not speak, as if he had not heard the old blind man's words.
The old blind man said again: "The Sancai Sword Group has disappeared for many years, but I didn't expect to fall into this small Yanhua Empire. β
As soon as he heard this, Shi Fucai was finally moved, this old blind man was blind, but he recognized the Sancai Sword Group, for so many years, this was the first person in the Yanhua Empire to say the name of the Sancai Sword Group. Shi Fu looked at the Oolong Pond and said, "Your Excellency has already completed the Dan, and you have also fallen here." β
"If you come, you will be safe, why use the word "fall". β
Shi Fu said: "The sword of the three talents is damaged, and the sword spirit is less than two or three, so it should not be used to reduce the word "fall." β
There was no emotion in the old blind man's cloudy eyes: "Under the Oolong Pool, the treasures are all empty, but the power of the dragon and phoenix is still there, I am curious, since you are protecting the new owner of the Sancai Sword, why did you watch me force them into the pool?"
This old blind man really saw more clearly than anyone else in his heart, and Shi Fu was expressionless and said, "I can't beat you." He's talking about you, not "you."
The old blind man finally smiled: "I thought that everyone who came to this Oolong Pond was blind, but I didn't expect you to be blind." "Obviously, he is the only one who is blind, but he said that everyone who came to this Oolong Lake is blind.
Shi Fu said: "After all, after so many years, the realm has not come up, but the eyes are getting better and better. "On weekdays, how can the teacher say so many words, but today, when the old blind man says a word, the teacher will definitely answer.
"It's not a reason to not be able to fight, and even if it is, I don't believe it. The old blind man's hand holding the banner trembled slightly, his knuckles turned slightly white, and the boy who was poking the toad's ass raised his head and glared at Shi Fu at this time, and the old blind man's hand relaxed, "I'm curious, since you are protecting the new owner of the Sancai Sword, why did you watch me force them into the pool?"
It was the second time he had asked this question, and apparently he hadn't gotten the answer he wanted the first time.
Shi Fu's hands folded behind his back tightened, and he sighed and said, "If you have what you want, you have to do something." β
"Ask for something, do something...... Ask for something, do something......" The old blind man repeated twice, his cloudy eyes suddenly widened, his eyes were full of whites, and he was terrifying, "The Sancai Sword Group is damaged, is it possible that you want this Seven Dragons and Phoenixes to lock the phoenix?!"
Shi Fu said: "It's not that I want it. β
The old blind man returned to normal: "It should be so, it should be so." β
Shi Fu said: "But Wulong Pond is a dead end. β
The old blind man said, "What is the solution of death, what should life be, and what should life be, this is the way that cultivators should do." β
Shi Fu smiled: "You know how to explain others." β
The old blind man said, "This is not an explanation, I am just saying what you think." β
Shi Fu retracted his gaze from Wulong Pond: "I hope so." β
The old blind man asked, "If you ask for something, you have to do something?"
Shi Fu nodded.
The old blind man asked, "Then what do you want?"
Quack β
The sound of speech stopped abruptly, and only the rustling of leaves could be heard in the wind. The boy then poked the toad's ass hard, and the toad finally screamed, and then jumped up from the grass and jumped down the slope. The boy had nothing to play with, so he had to stand up and stare at Shi Fu with burning eyes.
Shi Fu didn't answer again, but the hands behind him squeezed tighter.
The air seemed to condense, and the sound of wind and water could not be heard.
Centered on the place where the old blind man, the boy and the teacher stood, there was a dead silence within a radius of five zhang, and no outside objects were allowed to enter or come out. Beads of sweat gradually appeared on the foreheads of the old blind man and Shi Fu, but the two did not reach out to wipe them, and the boy's eyes were dripping, but he did not sweat.
"Grandpaβlet's goβ"
The hoarse voice sounded like a tattered windmill, and the boy took the old blind man's free hand and turned his head in the direction in which he had come.
The old blind man and grandson are gone.
As the sun sets, the red glow is reflected in the pond, showing the same autumn light.
Shi Fu's tense body suddenly relaxed, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and face with his hands, and stood on the slope like a somewhat rickety statue, looking downward, looking at the oolong pond that had been calm as a mirror again, without any emotion.
