Chapter Seventy-Seven: Dilemma
"Bring it over and I'll take a look!" the young man snatched the cowhide roll into his hand and looked at it.
I opened the cowhide scroll, and there were three big characters written on it: the Nine Pole Gate, and the zigzag lines below, as well as the labels of each house, and the description of all the construction locations in the Nine Pole Gate, it can be said that this is a complete and precise map of the Nine Pole Gate.
After reading it, Shao Liang rolled up the map, and then looked at Zhao Er in astonishment and said, "Er'er, where did you get this good thing?"
"Good things?" Zhao Er put on a surprised look and replied, "It's easy, I went to the library in the sect to steal it!"
"Steal, fuck you, when did you learn to steal people's things?" said Shao Qi angrily.
Zhao Erzhi replied hesitantly: "Don't be angry! It's a big deal, let's go around in this Nine Pole Gate and then put it back, isn't it?"
"You ......" Shao Qi said silently: "Okay, put the map here first, let's pick a time another day and then find the map to go around!"
At this time, Shao Liang completely believed Zhao Er's words, thinking that Zhao Er was just for fun, but he didn't know that this was Zhao Er's deliberate dedication.
Holding the map in his hand, Shao Liang was a little secretly glad that it didn't take any effort to get it, of course, this was thanks to Zhao Er's credit, so Shao Liang smiled at Zhao Er and said, "Er'er, do you still have any wine? Get some, let's not get drunk tonight!"
Zhao Er was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile: "Okay! You wait, I'll get it!"
When the words fell, Zhao Er didn't stay any longer, let alone mention the matter of asking for the map, turned around and pushed the door and left.
Shao Liang looked at Zhao Er's distant back, not very emotional, he didn't expect Zhao Er to do himself a big favor by mistake, and it was when he needed it most, but Shao Liang thought about it, and became a little uneasy, now Qiu Gongyan's revenge will come unexpectedly, if he leaves with the map at the moment, he will be spared Qiu Gongyan's revenge, but Zhao Er, Yao Luhua, and Mu Yanling, how will they see themselves in the future?
This is a problem, Shao Liang is a little in a dilemma, after some entanglement of thoughts, Shao Liang is finally controlled by his own life motto, the so-called world is big, and the small life is the biggest.
Stay in the green mountains, don't worry about no firewood, and besides, Yao Luhua and Zhao Er and Mu Yanling don't know that their departure may hurt their hearts, but it will not cause any serious consequences, so Shao Liang immediately decided, and after drinking this farewell wine with Zhao Er tonight, he left Jiuji Gate.
Shao Qi had vaguely heard the voices of Shi Feizi and Jiang Yousi, yes, the kind of place in Yinxuan Mountain is more suitable for him.
With such thoughts, Shao Liang half lay on the bed, but unconsciously fell asleep, until someone knocked on the door, Shao Liang woke up, and now, it is nightfall.
Zhao Er pushed the door in, and when he saw Shao Qi resting, he smiled and said, "What's wrong?" Shao Baitou, you haven't drunk this yet, and you have fallen?"
"No, I don't know why I fell asleep!" Shao Liang got up and saw Zhao Shuang carrying two jugs of wine, so he asked, "Why the hell have you been there for so long?"
Zhao Erhan laughed twice, but did not reply.
Shao Qi asked again: "What's wrong with you?
Zhao Er still shook his head with a smile, didn't say anything, but raised the two jars of wine in his hand at Shao Liang.
Shao Qi was stunned for a moment, and then frowned: "Fuck you, you can't steal this wine, right? Didn't Lao Tzu warn you, you are not allowed to steal anything in the future!"
Zhao Er hurriedly explained: "No, no, I didn't steal it!
In a hurry, Zhao Er told the truth, but this truth made Shao Liang silent, Shao Liang was silent for a long time, and his heart was very moved, it turned out that it took so long, and Zhao Er used it to buy wine.
"Er'er, hey, I've worked hard for you, you said it earlier! If we don't have wine, we won't drink it, why do we have to go down the mountain to buy it, it's so far ......away" Shao Liang naturally knew the distance of going down the mountain to buy wine.
Zhao Er shook his head with a smile and said, "It's okay, it's hard! It's okay! Come on, let's drink!"
As he spoke, Zhao Er put the two jars of wine on the tea house, and he took the lead in taking a seat. Shao Liang stopped in place and did not leave for a long time. At this moment, Shao Liang's heart was very entangled.
"Will I hurt Er'er?" Shao Qi thought in his heart, a little uneasy.
"What's the matter?, hurry up, come and drink!" Zhao Er urged.
Shao Liang sighed deeply, then put on a smile, turned around and walked towards Zhao Er, pulled out and sat next to Zhao Er, and the two of them began to drink with laughter, and even talked a lot about the past in Nanyao City, talking about the young tailor's shop, talking about the pharmacy looking for a doctor, talking about the fat butcher Zhang, and talking about the widow Pan who stole men......
The night was getting deeper and deeper, and most of the cultivators in the Nine Extremes Sect were resting. Under the bright moonlight, the entire Nine Poles Gate looked a little cold at this time, and there was no prosperity in the daytime at all, some were just different hearts and people, and people with different mentalities.
The two jars of wine have been drunk by Shao Qi and Zhao Er, but the two of them are still unsatisfied.
"Er'er, you have to do a good job in the future! cultivate hard, and you will definitely be able to glorify your ancestors in the future!" said Shao Yu with the intention of drinking.
Zhao Ergan laughed twice, and then replied: "You are the same! Our two brothers have cultivated well, and no one will dare to bully us in the future!"
Shao Liang laughed dryly, but there were many ripples in his heart, Zhao Er naturally didn't know his plans, and Shao Liang's heart was very entangled with tomorrow's departure.
However, at this moment, in the middle of the night, Shao Liang's door was knocked again, which made Shao Liang and Zhao Er look at each other and couldn't help but be a little stunned.
"Who?" said the young man, trying to shout.
"Is Shao Liang there?"
It was an unfamiliar voice, Shao Liang was puzzled, so he got up and went to open the door, and Zhao Er followed behind Shao Qi.
After opening the door, Shao Liang saw two unfamiliar faces, two male cultivators he had never seen before.
"You are ......"
"You're a young man, aren't you?"
The faces of the two men were calm, and they didn't mean to introduce themselves.
"Yes, I'm Shao Liang, dare to ask you who you are......"
"That's right. One of them spoke up: "Uncle Pharmacist asked us to summon you to come and find you in an urgent matter." ”
"Is my master at this hour?" Shao Qi was a little surprised, after all, it was already the middle of the night, and Yao Luhua had never summoned herself late at night.
The two nodded affirmatively and said, "Yes, Uncle Pharmacist said, let you take this to the teaching room to see her." ”
As they spoke, the two handed Shao Liang a black thing, like a strange wooden block, very light, but warm to the touch.
The young man was puzzled, so he asked again: "Two senior brothers, are you sure that the master wants me to go over to teach the room now?"
"Yes, please hurry up, don't miss Uncle Pharmacist's big business! With that, the two men turned and left, disappearing into the darkness.
Shao Liang looked at the black thing in his hand, and then looked at Zhao Er, the two looked at each other, confused, inexplicable, and didn't know what to do next.
The air condensed, and a strange aura interspersed between the two, Zhao Er took the lead in questioning: "Shao Baitou, how could this pharmacist call you in the middle of the night?"
Shao Yu shook his head innocently and said, "I don't know either!"
Zhao Er then looked at the black thing in Shao Yan's hand, and then said, "What the hell are you?"
Shao Yu shook his head innocently again: "I don't know!"
"In that case, you can't help but go and have a look, right?" Zhao Er proposed.
"That's right, if the master is looking for me in a hurry, right?" Shao Qi was even more curious.
After the two of them briefly agreed, Shao Liang took Zhao Er, closed the door, and walked towards the teaching room together, because it was late at night, there were very few Xiuzhen disciples in the four places, and the two of them had not even met a few Xiuzhen disciples along the way, and occasionally met one, but they were also unfamiliar with each other, and passed by in a hurry.
Soon, Shao Liang and Zhao Er came to the teaching room, but at this time, the teaching room was darkly lit, and it didn't look like someone was in it at all, which made Shao Liang a little surprised, if you listened to the words of those two cultivators, the medicine green flower should have appeared here at this time, but it was empty, not to mention the medicine green flower, not even a living being, only Shao Liang and Zhao Er stared at each other, puzzled.
"What's the situation?" Shao Qi looked at Zhao Er in confusion and said loudly.
Zhao Er also shook his head blankly and said, "Who knows? Didn't you say that Uncle Medicine was waiting for you here?"
"yes!"
"How strange!"
"So what now?"
"Wait a little longer?"
Shao Liang hesitated, but a figure suddenly flashed in his mind, and then Shao Liang shivered unconsciously, and his back was cold.
Zhao Er saw Shao Liang's strange appearance, so he hurriedly asked, "Shao Baitou, what's wrong with you?"
Shao Liang said in a low voice: "This ...... It can't be a trap, right?"
The person who just appeared in Shao Liang's mind was Qiu Gongyan, Shao Liang thought of Qiu Gongyan's revenge, combined with the current situation, this is tantamount to coincidence, and if it is really Yao Luhua who wants to summon himself, he will not choose to be in the middle of the night, what kind of system will the lonely man and widow become? Even if it is a master and apprentice, it is difficult not to attract gossip from others.
"What kind of trap? Shao Baitou, have you drunk too much?" Zhao Er obviously didn't realize anything.
But at this time, Shao Liang was already a little flustered, so he pulled Zhao Er to turn around, and wanted to leave quickly, but at this moment, he suddenly heard an explosion in the direction of the teaching room, and then, the fire was shining, lightning and thunder, and the tongues of fire were like dragons and snakes, and they instantly rose from the back of the teaching room to the air, and the inexplicable fire burned, and the raging flames illuminated the nine pole gates that entered the night.
The sound of "crackling" fire frightened Shao Qi and Zhao Er even more in place......
