Chapter 5 Meeting
In fact, the proposal of the poisonous peony is very dangerous, after all, now the old cat has just killed Xu Longxiang, and Rhubarb and I are rushing to sweep the Xu family's stronghold. But who knows what she's secretly thinking, and whether she's a smiling tiger or not?
Maybe the poisonous peony will turn around and lead us into a trap that has already laid a lot of traps, and directly correct the three of us on the spot?
Thinking of this, I really hesitated, and when I looked back at the rhubarb, I saw that the rhubarb was also desperately glaring at me, obviously not trusting this poisonous peony.
But at this moment, the old cat suddenly said, "I'll go with you." ”
I looked at the old cat in shock, today's old cat, but it doesn't look like an old cat.
Old cats in the past would never be so irrational. But today's old cat suddenly became very impulsive, I can understand that this is the only chance to meet his father, and I know that he wants to see his father, maybe this is the only time, but no matter what, the old cat's decision is a little abrupt.
"Old cat, why don't you think about it first?" I asked hurriedly.
The old cat shook his head, looked at me and Rhubarb, and said, "You two don't go, I'll go by myself." You go outside and wait for me, I believe in the integrity of the poisonous peony and the Xu family. ”
Hearing this, Poison Peony nodded slightly and said, "I won't let you down." ”
Of course, Rhubarb and I couldn't let the old cat go up alone so easily, the two of us quickly shook our heads and said, "No, old cat, we will never let you go alone, let's go together!" ”
The old cat still shook his head and said, "No, either I'll go, or none of us will go." ”
I looked at the old cat and knew that he wasn't joking, that he didn't want us to be in any danger, and that he was implicated in his private affairs.
The old cat also understands and we know his character. If he says so, the result of our insistence on going is that everyone doesn't go, this is the old cat, although occasionally emotional, but most of the time it is still rational and terrible.
I couldn't resist him at all, and Rhubarb also knew the characteristics of old cats, so Rhubarb and I looked at each other and nodded at the same time.
I was still conquered by the old cat's stubbornness, I looked up at the poisonous peony and asked, "How long does it take to go back and forth from here to the old cat's father?" ”
Poison Peony closed his eyes and calculated, and said: "Actually, it's fast, you should be able to come back before dawn, provided that the old cat doesn't delay there for too long." ”
I looked at the old cat. said: "Old cat, then Rhubarb and I are here until dawn, if you haven't come back at dawn, even if we turn the entire Xu family upside down, we must find you." ”
The old cat smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely come back, we are the Iron Triangle, and no one will be missing." ”
Poison Peony listened to our conversation, and also pouted helplessly, with a touch of mockery on his cold face, and said: "You two don't worry, the ability of the three of you to count the old cats is the worst, even if we want to kill them, we will definitely kill the two of you first." So you're more dangerous than the old cats here, so you can do it yourself, right? "Carry the edge of the battle.
As he spoke, the poisonous peony twisted his almost perfect figure and walked into the distance, the old cat followed closely behind, and Xu Yingyang walked at the end of the formation.
Rhubarb and I sent the poisonous peony away, I sighed in a low voice and asked, "Rhubarb, what do you think?" ”
"I think...... It's quite warped, and it's ...... more warped than twenty years old" What Rhubarb said was a bit inexplicable.
"Damn, rhubarb, what are you talking about?" I'm confused.
"It's not a poisonous peony's fart... Share... Alas? Lin Yang, why haven't you seen you for a month, you kid has become bad, you have learned to talk to me? Rhubarb looked at me with an angry face.
I spread my hands helplessly and said: "Who is talking to you, I obviously asked you what you think of the old cat's trip, is it some trick played by the woman of the poisonous peony, is there any danger for the two of us to sit here, will we meet the ghosts of the Xu family who come to surround us, who let you say those useless things...... A pair of thief eyes know how to look indiscriminately. ”
Rhubarb was criticized by me, and I didn't refute it, but just smirked and laughed like a pure yellow dog.
I spread my hands helplessly, and then sat down, looking at the boundless darkness in the distance, wondering if the old cat was really taken by the poisonous peony to see his father, and also wondering why the mysterious organization of Yuan Qingjiang had to get along with the ghosts of Sijiu City.
Why? When is the grudge? Does it have something to do with the dungeon? Something to do with Yao Guangxiao?
Is all this what my grandfather called the catastrophe?
Thinking of this, I hurriedly asked, "Rhubarb, what about the crazy seniors?" Still living at my grandfather's house? ”
Rhubarb nodded and said: "Yes, this eighth sword, I comprehended much faster than my master, he has no experience in becoming a powerful ghost, so the whole person is not good at controlling qi, fortunately, your grandfather is not good at controlling qi in addition to peeping into the sky, and can give him a lot of guidance, this time I was able to practice the eighth sword, thanks to your grandfather's knowledge." ”
It dawned on me that my grandfather was still a qigong master, no wonder I saw him hiding so well before, so we couldn't find him within ten steps.
The mad Daoist predecessors have not become a powerful ghost like Rhubarb, and his understanding of qi is quite limited, so it is no wonder that he can't practice the eighth sword, thinking of this, I smiled and said to Rhubarb: "Then isn't your kid surpassing your master now?" ”
Rhubarb smiled and said, "Sort of, as the saying goes, blue is better than blue!" ”
As soon as I thought of the crazy man's unwilling expression and the look of stealing joy in my heart, a smile appeared on the corner of my mouth, this master and apprentice are really a living treasure, and they are really happy together.
Of course, neither Rhubarb nor I realized that the success of Rhubarb's eighth sword was not only a great breakthrough for him, but also a milestone event in the entire Spiritual Realm at that time.
The wait was always long, and I was almost staring at the numbers on my watch and jumping forward one by one, and it was still the number in seconds.
Finally, it was about five o'clock in the morning, but there was still no sign of the old cat.
I felt more and more uncertain, I looked back at the rhubarb and asked, "Rhubarb, what's wrong?" Why don't we go find the old cat? It shouldn't be that he fell for the trick of the Xu family, right? ”
Rhubarb shook his head and said: "I don't look like it, what Poison Peony said is right, they would have killed the old cat a long time ago, and besides, the old cat's ability is not enough to worry about it at all, why bother so much to kill him, it is better to come and kill us directly." ”
I pouted and said, "You dare to despise the old cat so much, be careful that he comes back and I will make a small report." ”
Rhubarb hurriedly begged: "Lin Yang, you are so upright, you will definitely not do such a thing, right?" ”
I smiled, but I was never in the mood to joke, and the old cat didn't come back for a moment, so I was worried for a moment.
About half an hour later, suddenly there was a sound of footsteps in the distance, probably the footsteps of an old cat.
"Old cat?!" I asked nervously, and quickly sat up from the stool, and the rhubarb behind me also stood up with me, and greeted me in the direction where the footsteps came.
Because the light was so dim, we only saw a vague outline, which looked like the shape of an old cat, but at this moment, the figure of the old cat suddenly stopped, and then I saw his arm move, and then there was a "snap", and I saw his face light up.
It was an old cat, indeed an old cat, and he was looking down and lighting a cigarette.
After lighting the cigarette, the old cat slowly waved at us, then took a puff of cigarette and walked towards us.
That's the old cat, the real old cat, he is the only one, and he came back safely.
Rhubarb and I greeted us, and the three of us were finally reunited again.
Iron Triangle, reunite.
