Chapter 119: Complicity
Good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and the cold rain awakens the giant snake and drowns my goodness. sighed at the sinister heart, smiling with eyebrows, but stabbed in the back; The ancient way is loyal, but it's just talking.
Thunder and lightning flashed, the rain became a river, Ma Ningshuang and I supported each other through the dense forest, our faces numb by the rain, and our ears deaf from the thunder.
Ma Ningshuang just walked forward numbly, regardless of whether there were stones under her feet or not, and she couldn't tell whether there were tears or rain on her face. She slipped and fell to the ground, but she didn't want to stand up again, and slapped the puddle on the ground fiercely, unable to accept the sudden reality, and then burst into my arms, hugging and crying.
The sudden traitor was unexpected, but I quickly understood that the secret behind this was probably not so simple. First of all, when Lao Dao'er and I came here, we encountered the strange thing of a corpse mutation in the village, and I don't have to think about it, I must have something to do with the mysterious person. Secondly, it is this Evergrande Shouzhuang, Xiaoyaozi once studied art here, and Ma Di is a brother, if the mysterious person wants to find a way to restrain Xiaoyaozi's soft sword, he must come here, just in collusion with Ma Di.
This shows that there must be some kind of alliance of interests between the two.
After walking for half a night, the rain still didn't mean to stop, Ma Ningshuang's lips were white, and she couldn't stop trembling, her sense of direction in the forest was not very good, and the heavy rain was pouring down, and she didn't know where she went.
My eyes suddenly lit up, there was a dilapidated mountain temple in the faint air, I shouted excitedly, pulled Ma Ningshuang and ran over, but just arrived at the gate of the temple and was stunned, and said: "Something is wrong, how can someone in this deep mountain and old forest make a fire in the temple?" β
Ma Ningshuang grew up in Evergrande Shouzhuang since she was a child, and she has seen all the walking corpses and ghosts, but she only shook her head when she saw the firelight.
The forest in this Xing'an Mountains is big, and there are really all kinds of birds.
"What's going on?" Ma Ningshuang looked at me, hesitating.
"Love, even if the ghost is inside, I have to go first to avoid the rain." After speaking, I stubbornly moved forward step by step, the temple gate collapsed, and only half of the stone pillars on both sides were left, I swallowed my saliva and looked into the temple.
I saw a hairy monster snoring and screaming, and I was so frightened that I jumped up and shouted. The monster was also startled by my voice, and with a twitch, it bounced violently: "Who, who?!" β
I was startled when I heard as if someone was talking, and then I looked inside, and saw what kind of monster it was, a beggar in ragged clothes and unkempt hair.
The man ruffled his unkempt hair from both sides, looked left and right, and shouted, "Who?" β
I leaned out, waved my hand, and smiled at the man, "It's me." β
The man was stunned for a moment, but out of nowhere, he found a hairpin, fixed his unkempt hair behind his head, squinted his eyes, and looked at me carefully.
"Who am I?"
I scratched my head and replied awkwardly, "I got lost in the woods and took refuge from the rain." β
The man didn't answer, he still stared at me intently, and I realized that this mountain temple was not opened by his family, and he didn't know how to eat people, so he was afraid that he would pull Ma Ningshuang and walked in.
A pile of firewood on the ground was about to go out, so I hurriedly picked up a piece of wood and filled it in. We were roasting by the fire, and the man had not spoken, and he must be sixty or seventy years old.
I sat down on the ground, took out a fairly complete steamed bun from my bag, wiped the rain on it with my cuff, and broke half of it for the horse to frost. If you want to say that this steamed bun was given to me by Ma Di, don't say that it is poisoned inside, although it is not very humane to test the poison with Ma Ning Cream, but Ma Di estimated that he would also eat these dry food Ma Ning Cream, so it would not be poisoned in it.
My belly was also drumming, and I couldn't care about it so much, so I immediately took a big bite.
The old man
swallowed his saliva, and said: "Xiaoyou, the appearance and temperament are really extraordinary, and in the future, he must be a talent who has passed through the heavens and latitudes, as the so-called, the heavens are entrusted to the people, and they must first starve their bodies and skin, empty their viscera, and do more good deeds, there will be God's blessing, haha......" The old man laughed dryly after speaking, and looked at the half of the steamed bun in my hand.
After listening to it, I glanced at him, where did I get this set of rhetoric, but I saw that he was probably hungry, and was about to break half of it for him, but Ma Ningshuang handed her half of the steamed bun to the old man.
The old man took the steamed bun and stuffed it into his mouth in two bites, choking and burping, I saw the old man's embarrassed eating, and I had no intention of speculating about what this person had experienced.
"I don't know how Lao Dao'er is now, that Ma Di led out the king, but he didn't dare to attack me, and secretly killed me, so he really didn't recognize his six relatives."
The old man smoothed his chest with his hand, smiled at me, but his mouth was black and holey, showing his two front teeth, and said to me with a smile: "This little friend, you have a heavy treasure, all the way through the mountains and forests, presumably human life is at stake." β
I was stunned for a moment after hearing this, this old man really had two moments, how did he know that I was carrying a heavy treasure, and hurriedly protected King Sam in his arms, and asked tremblingly: "How do you know?" β
"Ruibao must have a vision in this world, it is the middle of winter, how can it rain so heavily in the mountains!" The old man squinted his eyes and said to me in a pretended deep voice.
"If you give me half a steamed bun in your hand, I will pass on this hundred years of skill to you." As soon as he finished speaking, he clasped his big hand covered with black mud on my Heavenly Spirit cover.
As soon as I was excited, the crazy old man hurriedly knocked off his big hand on my head, and said angrily: "If you want steamed buns, I'll give them to you, don't pass on your skills." β
The old man opened his mouth and said, "Then give me the steamed buns." β
I handed him the remaining half of the steamed bun as well. After the old man finished eating the steamed buns, he said to me again: "Although the old man doesn't know any peerless skills, he can guide you a thing or two." β
I didn't take it seriously, I spread my hands and said to him: "I don't have steamed buns anymore, you can say whatever you want." β
"Little friend, don't despise the old man, the old man is also the first person in Evergrande Shouzhuang to survive the four punishments of the dragon." The old man glanced at him and tilted his head to one side.
Ma Ningshuang suddenly got up and shouted in surprise: "You are the Flower Ghost King?" β
"Yes, it's the old man." The old man nodded at Ma Ningshuang.
I hurriedly asked Ma Ningshuang: "Who is this flower ghost king, how can you know Evergrande Shouzhuang?" β
The old man Ma Ningshuang sat in a rickety posture and said slowly: "I heard the people in the village say that thirty years ago, there was a strange man named Flower Ghost King, who knew astronomy and geography. His whereabouts are erratic and unpredictable, so they all call him the King of Flower Ghosts. But later, not only because of something, he withdrew from Evergrande Shouzhuang, but he was also the first person to survive the four punishments of the dragon. β
"Why, the old man told you that if there is the shape of Ma Di in his eyes, it must be someone close to him. Back then, Na Ma Di, in order to be the helmsman, took away the king of other people, and forcibly occupied his wife, it was really hateful, the old man went to say, and it was not easy to say anything, so he could only leave Evergrande Shouzhuang and be quiet! β
I was stunned on the spot, and as expected, the unicorn corpse monster was really killed by Ma Di.
Ma Ningshuang also froze there, as if she couldn't believe her ears, and looked straight at the old man. But then he regained his composure, but tears were in his eyes.
I sighed, "No wonder I'm missing two front teeth." β
"Hey, the old man also wants to inlay the right porcelain, but it's a pity that he is shy in his pocket." The old man bowed his head and sighed.
I filled the fire with dry wood while chatting with the flower ghost king.
I don't know when there was no rain outside, and the fire was extinguished, and a wave of sleepiness hit, and I fell into a deep sleep.
When I opened my eyes, the sky suddenly brightened, and the red sun shone on the earth, reviving
With a heavy hope, Ma Ningshuang was wearing a stinky rag on his body, but the old man was gone.
When I got up, I saw a few big characters written on the ground with charcoal: a leaf is blind. King Sam is now King Sam is dead, true and false, false and true. Signed: Flower Ghost King.
I know it's the words that the flower ghost king left for me, but I can only guess for myself. The king of Sam in my arms is still there, and I have to make a deal with Ma Di's old smoking gun, since this Ma Di and the mysterious man are in the same stream, it means that the mysterious man must have given others some benefits, not to mention anything else, what are the conditions, I am very curious.
I covered my shoulders, slowly walked out of the earthen temple, looked at the red sun, and said to Ma Ningshuang beside me, "Where are you going?" β
"I'll follow you wherever you go!" Ma Ningshuang pouted and took my hand.
My heart was pounding, my face was red, and I didn't know what I was going to say, so I hurriedly changed the subject: "Please." β
"What's the matter?" Ma Ningshuang's eyes widened.
I scratched my head and said to him: "I know you don't want to go back to Evergrande Shouzhuang, but Lao Dao'er is still holding up there, please help me put on a show." β
"Huh?" Ma Ningshuang was surprised.
The two of us walked and stopped in the forest, time passed quickly, and the sun was shining overhead, but Wangshan ran dead horses, and the Crouching Tiger Peak in front of us did not necessarily have to walk for long.
At dusk, with a body of tiredness, groping in the thick fog, back to the Qilin Slope, the big characters on the door of the false cover are still righteous and majestic, I took out the ginseng king, took off my coat and wrapped it, took a sharp breath, and Ma Ningshuang pushed the door into the two-story earth building called "True Dragon Hall".
My sudden intrusion made the helmsmen who were discussing the matter stunned, and Ma Di, who was sitting in the middle, changed his eyes slightly, and then greeted me with a smile and said to me: "Haha, you are back so soon?" You guys are back, why didn't Shui Xiaowu come to tell me. β
I felt a wave of disgust in my heart, and looked at him coldly: "He is dead, I killed him!" β
The helmsmen on both sides of the division stared straight at me, Ma Di was silent, holding the cigarette gun in his hand, flipping back and forth on his fingers, and then he shot up, I subconsciously took a step back, and Ma Di immediately shouted: "Hmph, I already knew that Shui Xiaowu had bad intentions, and he died well." β
After Ma Di finished speaking, Ma Ningshuang ran over crying, threw herself into his arms, and said in a choked voice: "Father, the fifth uncle went crazy when he saw King Sam and wanted to kill the two of us, but let King Sam run away!" β
Ma Di frowned, patted Ma Ningshuang's head, and did not speak. The helmsman in the hall didn't know why, and looked at Ma Di suspiciously.
"Old man Ma, I know that Lao Dao'er's poison can be pulled out without joining the king." I said respectfully to Mardy.
Ma Di hesitated: "This ......"
At this time, a thin middle-aged man in the hall stood up, patted his chest, and said to me: "I'll go and see what kind of poison the person you said has been poisoned, and he has made the chief helmsman so embarrassed." After speaking, he didn't look disdainful, and strode towards me.
A strangely dressed monk also stood up, slapped the table, and said viciously: "Okay, you paraquat, don't you want to slip away, hurry up and explain the matter of the golden coffin, otherwise no one will want to leave today!" β
I haven't seen this great monk, but Ma Ningshuang told me that there is a helmsman who divides the rudder and is a great monk, just because when he first became a monk, the master who gave off the scar was frightened by his loud voice and ordered one more, so he called him ten stars.
Without waiting for the paraquat to answer, a man in a suit and leather shoes, with his hair combed, also stood up, still wrapped in gauze, thinking that it was the Guangdong helmsman who was pulled yesterday, raised his eyebrows, looked at Ma Di, and said to him: "I said old man Ma, I don't care how they quarrel, but I have never heard of using the king of ginseng to pull out poison, I heard that the old helmsman's plant of ginseng king is also in your hands, you don't want to become an immortal, right?" βchaptere
