Chapter 68: On the eve of the rainstorm
Tang Xi didn't expect Mu Qin'er to be so careful, and she could observe it so meticulously after eating.
"Hehe, in fact, I don't know, maybe it's a habit!" Tang Xi smiled, thought for a while and continued, "Do you want to hear it?"
Mu Qin'er showed seriousness and nodded.
"When I was a child, I lived with an aunt who had a daughter who was a year younger than me. She was very strong, and although she was younger than me, she wanted me to call her sister. Even when I eat, whenever there is something delicious in my bowl, she will come and grab it. Before I knew it, I had developed a habit that I would take the initiative to give her delicious food. Tang Xi smiled, revealing memories, and his heart was full of longing.
Mu Qin'er had never seen Tang Xi have such a side, especially when she saw the happy smile on Tang Xi's face, her heart was full of envy. Mu Qin'er suddenly remembered that there used to be a middle-aged couple who would always keep the delicious food for themselves. And I always feel that this is the way it should be.
"Brother Bucklemen, I will leave all the delicious food to you in the future. Mu Qin'er smiled and continued, "You don't seem to eat fish?"
"Well, I don't eat fish because fish is a lifesaver for me. Tang Xi nodded.
As soon as Mu Qin'er heard that the fish could still save people, she grabbed the corner of Tang Xi and kept asking. Tang Xi showed helplessness and told the story of being in Taoyuan Village back then. After Mu Qin'er heard this, she showed a look of suspicion, and always felt that what Tang Xi said was untrue. However, after thinking of Qinglinmang's existence, Mu Qin'er believed a few more.
It was late at night, and at Tang Xi's request, Mu Qin'er chose to rest. Tang Xi also returned to his room, sitting cross-legged on the bed, closing his eyes and recuperating, thinking about the arrival of tomorrow.
Bianliang City, an ancient compound.
Qing Yu showed respect and said to Li Wanxuan. There is an old man behind Li Wanxuan, the old man is dressed in a white robe, and his age is not much different from Qing Yu. After Qing Yu made a statement, the three of them began to discuss countermeasures.
The next day, Tang Xi's door was pushed open by Fu Yugu.
"Childe, now there are people everywhere who are tracking down your whereabouts, and it is rumored that you have a map to find the Five Elements in your hand. Fu Yugu held a portrait in his hand and said with a panicked expression.
"The news is spreading so fast, don't pay attention to it. Let's rush to Bianliang City and settle the matter in front of us first. Tang Xi opened his eyes and said.
Fu Yugu wanted to say a few more words, but seeing Tang Xi's confident face, he had to suppress the unfinished words.
Tang Xi and his party of four appeared outside the inn, and there were three more horses at the door. This was all prepared by Fu Yugu early in the morning.
When Tang Xi appeared at the door of the inn, many people from the rivers and lakes held portraits and surrounded the four of them.
"Please also ask Shaoxia, hand over the map, and I'll let you go. The leader said, holding the long sword in both hands, with a look of contempt.
Tang Xi frowned and looked at the way where there were more than twenty people blocking the way in front of the inn. When it comes to hands-on, Tang Xi is not afraid. But Tang Xi knew that if he made a move today, he was afraid that he would become a great enemy in the future.
"You're all walking the rivers and lakes, but I have something important to do at the moment. In this way, tomorrow at noon, the largest inn in Bianliang City, I will hand over the map to you, is this okay. Tang Xi thought about it and said.
"You're not going to run away, are you?" asked a young man.
"Haha, this little brother thinks too much, is it possible that I will still go to heaven. Tang Xi laughed, hugged Mu Qin'er and got on the horse, and whipped away.
After Tang Xi left, everyone had their own thoughts. Some people used carrier pigeons to bring back the news, some secretly followed Tang Xi, and some people had their own wishful thinking.
"Childe, are you really the person who was rumored to be looking for the Five Elements half a year ago?" Fu Yugu sat on horseback and caught up with Tang Xi and asked.
"Tell me what rumors were there six months ago. Tang Xi asked rhetorically.
Fu Yugu told the rumors he had heard, and there were different versions. In the same way, a teenager will soon appear in the rivers and lakes to find the five elements. The difference is that the teenager's personality hobbies or something. Especially when he heard Fu Yugu say that this young man looking for the five elements likes to dip flowers and twist grass, Tang Xi glanced at Fu Yugu.
Tang Xi didn't directly answer Fu Yugu's words, but Fu Yugu was very sure that Tang Xi was the one looking for the Five Elements.
"Childe, the rivers and lakes haven't been lively for a long time, and now that you appear, I'm sure that there will be a wave of searching for the five elements in the entire rivers and lakes, and it's fun to think about it. Fu Yugu said with a smile.
Tang Xi sat on the horse, his face calm. Thinking back to who spread the news, Tang Xi had to suspect Tianchi Boy at this time.
"Brother Buckle the Door, what kind of treasure is the Five Elements?" Mu Qin'er sat in Tang Xi's arms, listened to so many things about the Five Elements, and asked with curiosity.
"I don't know, maybe it's not a good thing. Tang Xi replied.
Tang Xi's answer made Fu Yugu puzzled. obviously affirmed that Tang Xi was the one who was looking for the Five Elements, but Tang Xi didn't know what the Five Elements were. Fu Yugu suspected that Tang Xi was deliberately trying to conceal it.
"These five elements are divine objects, it is said that the owner can live forever, and he can also become a god......" Fu Yugu gushed out the rumors of the five elements.
"Have you ever seen immortality?" Mu Qin'er interrupted Fu Yugu's answer. Mu Qin'er didn't believe these non-existent rumors.
Fu Yugu was interrupted by Mu Qin'er, pointing at Mu Qin'er, and didn't know how to answer for a while. Fu Yugu suspected that this girl was deliberate, and every time she spoke, she either poured cold water or was deliberately interrupted.
"By the way, where did you get the portrait you got in the morning?" Tang Xi asked casually.
"Chunyin Pavilion, I didn't hold back and went there last night, but I didn't expect to see this portrait. Fu Yugu smiled and said shyly.
"What kind of place is the Spring Yin Pavilion?" Tang Xi asked with a puzzled expression.
Fu Yugu was asked by Tang Xi like this, and he didn't know how to answer. Looking at Tang Xi, who had just entered the rivers and lakes and didn't understand personnel, Fu Yugu grabbed the back of his head and didn't speak.
"Brother Buckle the door, it's a place for bad guys to go, don't pay attention to him. After Mu Qin'er finished speaking, she glared at Fu Yugu.
Fu Yugu saw Mu Qin'er glaring at him, retracted his gaze, and his horse speed slowed down a lot. Fu Yugu looked at Mu Qin'er in front of him, and said secretly in his heart: "A ten-year-old girl knows everything. ”
The four of them rode horses all the way south.
At noon, at the north gate of Bianliang City, the figure of Tang Xi appeared.
At the gate of the city, two rows of guards in armor were side by side, checking pedestrians coming and going. On the city tower, a priest in a monk's robe was looking at Tang Xi who was coming.
As soon as Tang Xi and the four of them walked to the city gate, Qing Yu jumped down from the city tower and landed in front of Tang Xi.
"Four, it's a good journey, my palace master is invited. Qing Yu said politely.
Tang Xi made a gesture of please, followed behind Qing Yu, and walked towards Bianliang City, which he had heard of since he was a child.
