Chapter 749: True Purpose (Part II)
Xuanhu pondered for a while: "After your stand-in comes out, I will take you out to hide, avoid the limelight first, and then talk about the rest." ”
I nodded and sighed: "My life is in the hands of the papermaker." ”
With that, I walked to the window, looked at the house of the papermaker through the moonlight, and muttered, "I really didn't expect to meet him again in the vast sea of people." ”
"yes." Xuanhu carried a bamboo pole, limped down the aisle beside me, and whispered, "This is fate." It is providence to want you to die; But let me find someone who can save your life, which is also providential. Who can tell this heavenly thing? ”
"You recognized him by his manipulation alone?" As I spoke, I pouted out the window.
Xuanhu sighed: "Actually, it is very common to tie paper, but they have gradually disappeared in recent years, which makes them mysterious and secretive." In the early years, the heads of each family maintained the old tradition, and the Dragon and Tiger Club was held every midsummer, and everyone sat together to compete in martial arts and exchange techniques. The four doors of the paper are very scattered, and the gate of them is in Gandu. Coincidentally, you happen to be in Gandu, so, do you think this is considered a providence? ”
After speaking, Xuanhu glanced at me: "As for his specific location, I know it from Longhu Mountain." When I first went to Longhu Mountain, I mainly wanted some incense ash to shape your flesh. When it came, I had an extra heart, and I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to figure it out, so I deliberately inquired with Lingxu, and I found his specific location. ”
After listening to this, I sighed silently and pinned all my hopes on the paper-binding maker.
"Go and call Yu Lan in, it's cold outside." Xuanhu said leisurely on the side: "Be nice to others, that's a good girl." ”
I just remembered that Yu Lan was still freezing outside!
As soon as I opened the door, Yu Lan hugged his shoulders and stomped his feet directly, and as soon as I reached out, I dragged Yu Lan directly into the house. At the same time, the papermaker also ran out of the house, shouting, "Don't close the door." ”
I took Yu Lan's hand while looking at the hurried papermaker and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
The papermaker looked at Xuanhu and asked, "Is there any wine?" ”
Xuanhu was stunned for a moment, "Yes, but not much." ”
The papermaker didn't speak, but stretched out his hand to Xuanhu, who immediately understood the intention, dragged his legs, turned back to the house, took out his own wine gourd, and handed it to the papermaker.
Xuanhu asked with some confusion: "Do you still use wine as a stand-in?" ”
The papermaker put the wine gourd in his ear and shook it, and the sound of the wine hitting the inner wall of the gourd made the papermaker show an extremely innocent smile: "I want to drive the paper man out overnight, so as not to have too many dreams at night." If I don't drink some wine, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear the fatigue. ”
Xuanhu waved his hand: "Just take it, when you finish this thing, I will invite you to drink, please drink good wine!" ”
The papermaker laughed and raised the wine gourd to Xuanhu: "Thank you for the wine." ”
"Thank you for your craft." Xuanhu looked at the figure of the papermaker and shouted behind his back.
"Bang", the sound of closing the door sounded in the empty courtyard, and the papermaker did not move again.
Xuanhu stretched out his hand and closed the door of our room, Xuanhu leaned against the wall and let out a sigh: "It's finally done." ”
After a pause, Xuanhu stood up straight and instructed: "There is a bedroom next to it, I saw it, it's very clean, you two go and rest." ”
I was about to say something, but was interrupted by Xuanhu: "I'm going to sleep too, recuperate." ”
I looked back at Yu Lan, nodded at Xuanhu, and took Yu Lan into the bedroom next to me.
When I entered the room, I leaned limply back in my chair as if my backbone had been pulled out by a magical machine, not wanting to say a word. Yu Lan casually pulled the curtain and blocked the moonlight out.
Yu Lan sat beside me and said as if to persuade me: "Actually, you don't have to hold it by yourself. ”
I smiled: "It seems that there is really nothing I want to say, I just feel a little helpless." ”
Yu Lan squatted in front of me, looking at me intently with big bright eyes, and asked, "But you were obviously very angry just now." ”
