Chapter 842: Humble Cottage
Ao Rui clenched her fists and turned her head to look at Pregnant Qiao, who shook her head slightly at him, and signaled him with her eyes to be calm. Ao Rui understood, quietly unloaded the accumulated strength in his palm, and was escorted by the group of black-clothed people into the rolling fog.
After passing through the thick fog, it suddenly became clear in front of everyone that it was a simple cottage built of bamboo huts and thatch.
People come and go in the cottage, and everyone is busy. Some people are plowing the fields next to the ridges, some people are grazing cattle halfway up the mountainside, women are busy raising livestock and cooking rice, and even the elderly and children are picking mulberry and silkworms, and working hard. In contrast to the devastating scene outside the valley, it gives the illusion of prosperity.
In the center of this cottage, there stands a tall bamboo building built with bamboo repair, and on the blue-brown plaque, a few big characters are scribbled on: Sanren Gang Zhongyi Hall.
Pregnant Jo stared at the plaque, a sarcastic smile on her lips. The Sanren Gang has always claimed to be loyal and righteous people on the rivers and lakes, and the four sects and twelve churches are all named after loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, and righteousness, but they are secretly engaged in bandit activities such as robbing homes and houses.
The group of black-clothed men escorted Pregnant Qiao and Ao Rui through the gate of the cottage and entered the bamboo building, which was lit with a few torches and a thick layer of animal skins on the ground. Several long tables were placed on both sides of the bamboo hall, some drinks and dishes were placed on the long tables, and several burly strong men sat on the ground.
There is a wooden couch placed on the innermost side of the bamboo hall, on which sits an old man in a blue robe with gray hair and silver beard. The old man frowned silently, just sat there, and the aura on his body was also very weak, but it gave people a very dangerous feeling.
Behind the old man stood a man in black, his face was as white as jade, his face was delicate, and he looked gentle and elegant, but his eyes were very gloomy. When Pregnant Qiao looked at him, he happened to look at Pregnant Qiao as well, and the man's eyes flickered and smiled evilly at Pregnant Qiao.
A man in black stepped forward, knelt on one knee, clasped his hands into fists, and reported: "Qiqi Sect Master, these two people have been wandering outside the cottage, and the villains came forward to ask, but these two people said......" The man in black swallowed his voice, as if he was deliberately avoiding something.
"What did the two of them say? You mean, you're dying!" A red-faced man with a pale beard on the right side of the bamboo hall slammed on the table and shouted, startling the man in black.
The man in black didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly replied, "They said that there are people from the Demon Sect near the cottage!"
"What?"
As soon as they heard the words "Demon Sect", everyone in the bamboo hall exclaimed in surprise and looked at each other, only the blue-robed old man and the black-clothed man behind him remained unmoved.
The red-faced man from before stood up and said with his hands in a daze: "What are you panicking about?" You are afraid of those turtle grandchildren of the Demon Sect, I Chongsan is not afraid, I will meet them when I go out!"
"Heavy three, sit down!"
The blue-robed old man sitting on the wooden couch finally spoke, the expression on his face was indifferent, without a trace of warmth, but his tone was unquestionable.
"Master Yun, the sky is falling apart outside the cottage, and the image of the end times has appeared, but those people from the Demon Sect have taken the opportunity to make trouble, burning, killing, looting, and doing all kinds of evil!
The blue-robed old man turned his head and glanced at Chongsan coldly. Chongsan swallowed his saliva with a "grunt", didn't dare to say more, shrank his body, and sat down stupidly.
Yun Lao Sect Master?
In addition to the mysterious old gang leader, there are also four door masters, namely Yue Xuan, the master of Zhongmen, Shi Wentian, the master of Xiaomen, Zhihua, the master of Renmen, and Yun Buregret, the master of Yimen. Among them, Yue Xuan, the master of the Zhongmen Gate, has been killed by Shi Wentian, the master of the Xiaomen Gate, and Shi Wentian, who robbed the body of Ah Xiu's pure yang, is still missing...... As for the master of the Renmen Sect, he is the leader of the Shadow Fire Guard of the Demon Sect, and he has dealt with him and saved his life. Then, the blue-robed old man in front of him must be the master of the Righteous Gate, Yun has no regrets!
Many people in the Sanren Gang have openly and secretly colluded with the people of the Demon Sect, raping and looting, and acting in a domineering manner, and there is no difference! Moreover, the old gang leader of the Sanren Gang had also ordered her to be wanted, although it had been so long, she still couldn't take it lightly.
Yun Buregret raised his head and glanced at Pregnant Qiao and Ao Rui, and let out a light "huh", seemingly slightly surprised. Then his eyebrows sank, and he returned to normal, and said, "Little girl, tell me what's going on?"
Pregnant Qiao took two steps forward, arched his hand, and said: "The two of us passed by here, and happened to meet someone from the Demon Sect who committed a murder, and the victim's body was outside the valley, if the old master didn't believe it, he could send someone to check it." ”
"Oh?"
Yun Buregret gave a look to the black-clothed people behind Pregnant Qiao, and the black-clothed people immediately bowed down and exited the bamboo hall, obviously not believing what Pregnant Qiao said.
"Now that the world is not very peaceful, since the two of you are here, you are Yun's guests, and you can stay here with peace of mind!" Yun said without regret and beckoned to the outside of the hall. A woman dressed in coarse linen clothes with a bun on her head walked in from outside the hall, bowed down to Pregnant Qiao and Ao Rui, and said crisply, "Girl, childe, please go to the courtyard with Fluttershy to rest!"
Pregnant Qiao knew in her heart that Yun Buregret was looking for an excuse to put them under house arrest, but she hadn't figured out the situation of this broken realm yet, so she couldn't turn her face with Yun Buregret. Let's bear with it for a while and wait and see what happens. She wanted to see what Yun didn't regret leaving her behind, and what he wanted to do.
Pregnant Joe and Ao Rui follow Fluttershy out of the bamboo hall and toward a nearby bamboo courtyard. As the group walked to the bamboo courtyard, Fluttershy pushed open the door and said to Ao Rui, "Childe, please go in and rest!"
Ao Rui glanced at Pregnant Qiao, who nodded at him.
When Fluttershy saw this, she pursed her lips and smiled, "Childe is relieved, this girl lives in the bamboo courtyard next to her, and Fluttershy will take good care of this girl." ”
Ao Rui didn't speak, but stepped into the bamboo courtyard with long legs.
Fluttershy leads Pregnant Joe on, turning around to another bamboo courtyard on the hillside, which has a great view of the cottage. Inside is a small two-story bamboo building, and Fluttershy brings Pregnant Joe into the courtyard and bows out.
After a while, Fluttershy walks in with a bucket of water and a food box, and says, "The tea and rice in the cottage are coarse, Fluttershy has prepared some snacks for the girl, so let's use some first!"
"Thank you, Fluttershy. Although she is secretly wary of Yun Buregret, this Fluttershy girl is still good.
