I didn't have time to wipe the cold sweat from my forehead, I got up, only to hear a sound of footsteps behind me, it was Ah Zi's little girl who ran out when she saw this, took my arm, checked me up and down, and said, "You scared me to death." "A little face is already pale, and the hand holding me is cold.

My mental loss was really great, and my body had not recovered, so I only felt dizzy for a while, and said, "Let's go." ”

Ah Zi let out an "um" and walked a few steps with me in his arms. I counted a few times in my mind, and after a few moments, sure enough, I saw a man walking out of the bushes in front of me, with his back bent, squinting his eyes, and clapping his hands a few times, making a dull and unpleasant sound.

Fuck, it's been extremely bad luck lately.

Ah Zi whispered, "There is a hunchbacked uncle." Her voice was already very soft, but it was still heard by the man, and she let out a strange hoarse laugh: "Little girl, come over to the uncle's side." ”

Ah Zi was taken aback, and I whispered, "Ignore him." Then he took her and turned around and walked in the opposite direction.

After a few steps, the old thing suddenly burst out of the bushes in front of me, walked up to us with his hands behind his back, looked me up and down, sighed a few times, and said, "My good apprentice is really completely different from other people's garbage apprentices." You have a handsome clavicle nail! ”

I secretly screamed in my heart, knowing that I had to use the clavicle nail just now, and I was immediately recognized by the old thing, and I quickly thought about how to get out.

When the old camel saw that I didn't speak, he smiled and said, "Disciple, every time we meet, you are a different face, tsk, this is really a coincidence." ”

I glanced at Ah Zi, saw that this little girl looked confused, and asked me in a low voice, "Is this uncle your master?" ”

The old camel laughed and said, "Disciple, your woman's popularity is really good!" Well, this little girl looks good at me, better than the last two! How's it going, have you slept and how does it feel? ”

When I heard it, I really wanted to tear off this old thing's stinky mouth. Looking at Ah Zi, although this little girl is young and pure-minded, she can still understand such a simple meaning, and her face immediately turned red. I was afraid that she would be annoyed and anger the old thing, so I immediately interrupted: "Don't talk nonsense, this is my little sister." ”

The old thing let out an "oh", looked Ah Zi up and down with a pair of old eyes, and nodded: "It turned out to be my apprentice's sister, no wonder it looks so pleasing to the eye." It's not a family, it's not a family, my apprentice's qualifications are so high, and my sister is definitely not bad. ”

I didn't speak. The old thing said, "Apprentice, don't blame the teacher for abandoning you at sea that day. The apprentice is so clever and clever, as a teacher, I believe that you are blessed with great fortune and fate, and you can definitely turn danger into a disaster, no, the apprentice is not standing here in a good manner. As he spoke, he made a few more hehehehes.

I sneered and said, "It's really a great blessing, the thing I almost controlled just now was cut off with a knife." ”

The old thing sighed a few times and said, "It's not like I'm going to try you yet, if I really get to that point, I'll naturally stop it." ”

I thought to myself, it's really terrible to believe in you, this old king. I heard the old thing let out a strange laugh and said: "The apprentice really didn't disappoint the teacher, not to mention the rest, your temperament is really rare when you are not chaotic in the face of danger and are full of opportunities." Hahaha, not bad, not bad! When the teacher is busy for this period, teach you well, and it will become a great tool! ”

At this time, I saw a figure walking out of behind the old man, and he bowed his head in front of him. I took a closer look, and saw that the left half of this person's face was blurred with flesh and blood, and even his eyes were only a black hole, and the remaining half of his face should be a young man, with a sleeve hanging on his left arm, and the mountain wind blew and gently raised, and the inside was empty, and it was a broken arm.

I glanced at Ah Zi, although the little girl was also looking at the man, there was no fear on her face. Although this person looks hideous, as a doctor, she has studied with her master for many years, and she is not afraid at all.

The old camel didn't look back, but only asked, "What's the matter?" ”

The man bowed his head and said, "Those people are going to flee." As soon as his voice came out, it was like a bellows, extremely hoarse interference, and it sounded very uncomfortable.

The old camel let out an "oh" and let out a night owl-like laugh, and said, "Let's wait and see." ”

The man answered "yes" and stepped aside.

I looked at the man and felt something strange. This old camel has always been a loner, when did he have an extra follower, this person has obvious yang energy, and he is a normal living person.

The old thing thought about my strange appearance, and said, "This is a poor child who was saved by the teacher in Nanyang." Guo Chong, come and get acquainted, this is my apprentice. ”

That Guo Chong took a step forward, bowed to me and said, "Guo Chong has seen the young master. ”

I couldn't laugh or cry, how did this sound so awkward, like the landlord's son, saying, "Just call me ugly." Guo Chong didn't speak, and retreated silently.

The old thing looked at me with a smile and said: "This Guo boy is pitiful, their family was robbed and killed on the Nanyang Sea Road, he fell into the sea, and he happened to meet a teacher, so he picked up a life, but this face and an arm were ruined." ”

I was a little surprised, and said, "Met a pirate?" "But I haven't heard of bandits on the Nanyang Sea Road before.

The old thing snorted and said, "If you want to say that you are really a pirate, then that's it." This time, we are here to avenge this Guo boy. ”

My heart suddenly came to my senses, and I blurted out: "Is it Qiao's family?" ”

The old camel squinted his eyes, glanced in the direction of the Qiao family's compound, and said, "Isn't it." ”

That being said, I have some doubts in my heart. I've been with this old thing for a while, and I naturally figured out a little bit about his temperament. This old guy is scheming and ruthless, where is the person who cares about such nosy things? If it is said that he ran thousands of miles to this deep mountain, just to avenge this Guo Chong, I don't believe it.

The old camel said, "Your leg is still injured, don't stand, sit for a while." So saying, he sat down on the ground.

I experienced a chase just now, and I was indeed a little tired, and I knew that I couldn't go if I wanted to go at this time. Ah Zi took my arm, sat down with me, and sat next to me.

The old camel said, "Say it yourself." The one named Guo Chong answered in the back, took a few steps forward, and told the story of what happened in Nanyang two months ago in a hoarse voice.

After listening to it for a while, I felt a tightness in my arm, and when I saw that Ah Zi's little girl's face was pale, and her hands were holding my arm tightly, she was probably a little frightened.

It turned out that this Guo Chong's family was in Qingzhou, and they were also a business family. Since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the Guo family has started a maritime trade business. Although the Guo family has been greatly weakened after the catastrophe a hundred years ago, until recent years, it can still be regarded as a solid family.

Guo Chong's father inherited the ancestral business and is still in the maritime trade business. However, compared with his ancestors, Guo's father is more like a pedant, knowledgeable, especially extremely interested in some ancient things, and has a collection of countless antique toys at home.

About three months ago, Guo Chong had just returned from the field, and his father called him to the study alone, and he dismissed everyone. At that time, Guo Chong was a little strange, knowing that his father must have something important to explain. But after arriving at the study, Guo's father didn't say anything to him immediately, but kept sitting on the chair in a daze.

Guo Chong didn't urge, just waited by the side. About an hour later, Guo's father seemed to suddenly come to his senses and told Guo Chong that there was something he had been hesitating about, so he wanted to discuss it with him, the heir of the next generation of the Guo family.

Guo Chong heard what his father said seriously, and he became even more curious.

Guo's father opened a dark pavilion in the study and took out a wooden box from it. Guo Chong recognized this wooden box, it was an antique that his father inadvertently received more than ten years ago, and the entire wooden box was made of gloomy wood, which was extremely precious and his father valued it very much.

He wondered why his father had suddenly taken the box out. But after Guo's father took out the box, he didn't say anything about the box, but opened the box.

Guo Chong saw a simple bracelet made of black and silver lying inside.
