Chapter Ninety-Three: Ripples
Shao Liang had already learned Yao Wuchang's magic skill of listening to footsteps and recognizing people, so when Shao Liang passed by Wuge, he deliberately slowed down his pace, so that his body seemed extraordinarily light.
A cold wind blew out of place, Shao Liang couldn't help but shiver, and his pace was relatively quickened, but because the houses in this row were very far apart, and because it was getting late, Shao Liang's vision was blocked, and most importantly, Shao Liang didn't know where Qiu Ru lived at all, at this moment, Shao Liang deeply felt that he was a little abrupt, and he came a little impulsively.
But Providence is always so coincidental, just when Shao Liang was pacing in confusion as he approached the second house, a shadow walked slowly in the clouds.
Shao Qi smelled a fragrance, and a sense of familiarity suddenly appeared in his mind, and when he was curious, the figure that was slowly walking in the clouds and mist spoke.
"Is it Shao Liang?"
Shao Liang could conclude that this was Mrs. Qiu's voice almost instantly, and he couldn't help but feel a little relieved, and secretly rejoiced that the willows and flowers were bright and another village, and it didn't take any effort to get it.
"It's me, the disciple has seen Madame. Shao Liang bowed slightly.
"Oh, it's really you! what? you're here, but what's the matter?" Mrs. Qiu approached Shao Yu, revealing her delicate countenance, and the curves of her figure.
Shao Liang was amazed, but he couldn't help but think of the softness in his mind, but Shao Liang quickly suppressed this thought, and then smiled: "The disciple is about to go to you! No, I will send you a long skirt......
While speaking, Shao Liang handed the white long dress to Mrs. Qiu's hand, although this white long dress was not as delicate as the one of Yao Luhua, but it also made Shao Liang think a little hard, Shao Liang was confident that it was at least much more precious than Qiu Ru's original long skirt.
Seeing the long skirt in Shao Liang's hand, Mrs. Qiu was stunned for a moment, then bloomed with a knowing smile, slowly took the long skirt, held it in the palm of her hand, and said gratefully: "Thank you, Shao Liang, this ...... This long dress is so beautiful. ”
"Madame likes it. Shao Qi smiled slightly.
"Like, like......" There was no trace of falsehood in Mrs. Qiu's expression.
Shao Qi was also very pleased, and was glad that the other party affirmed his tailoring skills, but at the same time, Shao Liang also had some doubts, that is, the map of the Nine Poles Gate was sent out, if it was according to Liu Hanxian's urgency, Qiu Ru should have been picked up now!
Shao Qi didn't have an answer, thinking about it, he probably felt that Liu Hanxian was on his way to come, so he gave up.
Mrs. Qiu noticed Shao Liang's contemplation, so she tried to ask out loud, "Shao Liang, ...... What's wrong with you? Is there anything else?"
"Oh, no...... No, no, no!" Shao Liang woke up and said, "Disturb Madame's rest, and the disciple will go back." ”
However, just as Shao Liang turned around, Mrs. Qiu stopped her voice: "Shao Liang, please wait a minute." ”
"What's the matter, ma'am?"
I saw Mrs. Qiu smile slightly, and then nodded: "You wait for a while, let me go and come." ”
"Huh?" Shao Qi was puzzled, but now Mrs. Qiu had turned around and left, pushing the door and entering the house in front of Shao Qi.
After a while, I only heard the sound of opening the door, and then saw Mrs. Qiu dragging her plump figure, and walked slowly towards Shao Liang again, and at this time she seemed to be carrying something in her hand, but because of the sky, Shao Liang couldn't see clearly for a while.
After Mrs. Qiu approached, without waiting for Shao Liang to speak, Mrs. Qiu took the lead in speaking: "I heard that Hua'er said that you like to drink......
As she spoke, Mrs. Qiu handed the things she was carrying in her hand to Shao Qi's eyes, and Shao Qi looked at it fixedly, only then did she know that it was two jars of wine, and after being stunned, Mrs. Qiu continued to speak: "Oh, this is my long skirt to thank you, take it." ”
Shao Liang was flattered, and was a little worried about where the wine he promised to Zhao Er and Mu Yanling would come from, but he didn't expect it to come without effort, but despite this, Shao Liang still pretended to be modest, bowed down and said, "Thank you Madame for your kindness, but the disciple can't ask for ......."
"How can I not want it? This is a small piece of my heart, young man, you must accept it. As she spoke, Mrs. Qiu tried to stuff two jars of wine into Shao Liang's arms, but Shao Liang pretended to be humble and refused.
However, just as he was pushing and shoving, the back of Shao Yu's hand touched Mrs. Qiu's proud chest without paying attention, and the soft feeling filled Shao Yu's whole body again, and Shao Yan's body seemed to be paralyzed for a moment, and after trembling, he froze in place.
"Uh......"
Mrs. Qiu let out a low voice, then lowered her head with a flushed face, and then after stuffing the two jars of wine into the arms of the young man who was frozen in place at this time, she immediately turned away and disappeared into the house.
After being stunned for a moment, he took a deep breath, as if he had a dream, and suddenly woke up, and then hugged the two jars of wine in his arms, and then looked at his hands intently, and couldn't help but "tsk" out of the sound, and at the same time shook his head with endless aftertaste.
After Shao Ling returned to his residence, Zhao Er and Mu Yanling were already waiting, and it happened that Mu Yanling and Zhao Er had already prepared the dishes, and they just lacked the two jars of wine in their arms.
After Shao Liang explained the origin of these two jars of wine clearly, Zhao Er and Mu Yanling couldn't help but cast envious eyes.
"Oh, Brother Shao, you can! Not only Uncle Pharmacist cares for you, but even the wife of the master of the door looks at you differently!" Mu Yanling said enviously.
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Er also followed and said: "Yes, Shao Baitou, you are much stronger than me now! Oh, you have the skills of a tailor, what about me? I have been following my father for so long, I can't even recognize all the herbs, hey!"
Shao Qi smiled and waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, don't talk about this, our brothers are tired for a day today, what's the matter?
"Of course you can!"
"Come on!"
Immediately afterwards, Shao Qi sat down at the square table with two jars of wine, and the three of them repeated the drunkenness of the previous nights again, and the laughter and laughter filled the whole room, which seemed to be the most special room in the entire Nine Pole Gate, and it was also the only consolation for Shao Kui's trip to the Nine Pole Gate.
Gradually, the night is getting deeper and deeper, the two jars of wine of the three of them have seen the bottom, and the three of them will sleep on the floor, suddenly, the snoring occupies the whole room, until the next morning, a anxious knock on the door, which pulled the three out of their sleep, just listening to the increasing frequency of the knocking on the door, you can feel how panicked the person who knocked on the door, and the three of them also felt very surprised by the sudden knocking on the door.
"Is anyone in there?
"Is the young junior brother here?
"Young junior brother, if you don't speak again, we're going to go in!"
The sound of knocking on the door was mixed with messy shouting, which suddenly made the three of them look a little confused, and they couldn't figure out what was going on at all.
But because the people outside the door seemed to be about to hit the door, Shao Qi hurriedly got up and opened the door, only to see three Jiuji Sect cultivators with anxious faces outside the door.
"Young junior brother, you are still here, why don't you speak?" The three Nine Extremes Sect cultivators breathed a sigh of relief and said loudly.
Listening to the meaning of the other party's words, Shao Qi was stunned and said, "What do you mean? What do you mean that I am still here? I am not here, is it possible to die?"
The three Xiuzhen disciples hurriedly apologized and explained, "No, no, young junior brother, we didn't mean that!"
"Then what do you mean?" Shao Qi deliberately showed a little anger, after all, he had just finished making clothes for them yesterday, and he came to curse himself early this morning, who could stand it.
The three cultivators hurriedly explained: "Young junior brother, I'm afraid you don't know yet, something big has happened in our Nine Extremes Sect!"
"What's the big deal?" Shao Qi was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "What's the big deal?"
But at this moment, Shao Qi vaguely had a bad premonition.
"Young junior brother, just come out and take a look!" The three cultivators said with panicked faces: "I don't know when last night, thousands of weird gray snakes suddenly crawled in our sect, these gray snakes are highly poisonous, we ...... We ......"
"What's wrong with those gray snakes?"
One of the cultivators nodded in panic and said, "Those gray snakes have bitten many of our senior brothers, ...... So far, dozens of brothers and sisters have died!"
"What? How is it possible? What are you kidding?" Shao Qi said in horror: "How can a cultivator say that death is death, let alone being bitten by a snake!"
Hearing Shao Liang's frightened voice, Mu Yanling and Zhao Er also followed out in shock, as if they couldn't believe the facts they had just heard.
The three cultivators replied aggrievedly: "Young junior brother, how could we lie to you? Uncle Medicine said that those gray snakes are not ordinary mountain snakes, but snakes specially raised by cultivators, and they have true qi in their bodies, so they can cause cultivators to die......
"Why is it so hateful?Who put the snake in?" Mu Yanling couldn't help but scold angrily.
Zhao Er also wondered: "Yes, have you found out who put the snake in? And those senior brothers, are they ...... Can't you save it?"
The three cultivators shook their heads again and again, "No...... I don't know, we don't know, everyone also found out about this situation when they were about to go to the morning meditation this morning, and the thousands of gray snakes also left early in the morning, only a small part was killed by us, and the senior brothers who were bitten by the gray snake ...... early I've already died......"
"How could such a thing happen?" Shao Qi calmed down for a while, and frowned: "What about my master?"
The three cultivators shook their heads again and said, "We don't know how such a thing could happen, and we are completing Uncle Pharmacist's order to check all the rooms in the Nine Extremes Gate in turn to see if it is still ...... Is there any brother who has been bitten by a snake......"
"Where is my master now?" ......
