Chapter 53: The Unexpected and the Unexpected
Looking at the gangster who had become an idiot and had broken bones all over his body, Tang Dou blinked his eyes and sighed: "Alas, a man like me who pulls the wind is really so dazzling wherever he goes." What should I do now?"
Sha Yunyue glanced at Tang Dou angrily, of course she knew that if it weren't for Tang Dou's acquiescence, Chihuo would not have been able to do this. Sun Mosong's matter so far, Tang Dou and they are all at the point where they have no place to vent, and the anger in their chests has accumulated qualitative changes, if they don't find something to vent, they will become out of control one day.
Tang Dou is like this, Chihuo is like this, and Sha Yunyue is actually the same.
So Chihuo started with these gangsters, Tang Dou acquiesced, and Sha Yunyue also pretended not to react, this is a tacit understanding between the three of them, which is not a tacit understanding.
"Who are you?" Lin Xiao saw that the wounds on Xiong Fang's body had been dealt with by Sha Yunyue, and the worry on his face finally decreased a little.
"We were guests at the Wood Wind Inn. Isn't that easy? I've only been a little bit stronger than these guys. Seeing that they were not pleasing to the eye, they made a move!" Tang Dou said slowly: "I say this, do you believe it?"
Lin Xiao: "......"
"Oh, if you don't believe it, then I'll make up another one!" Tang Dou nodded.
"Brother Tang, be serious!" Sha Yunyue said helplessly.
Tang Dou cleared his throat at this time: "Okay, let me introduce myself, my name is Nicholas Tang." It's okay if you call me Don, it's okay to call me Nicholas. These two are my fiancées. She is the Red Moon, she is the East. This is my sister, named Xiangru, and this is my pet, Bao. We were really just planning to stay at the Wood Wind Inn. I didn't want to be nosy, but ...... Hey, I didn't hold back and made a move!"
Lin Xiao looked Tang Dou up and down, full of questions about this guy who could casually arrange a fake identity for himself with his mouth open, but no matter what, Tang Dou saved them. And it also has such a strong strength, from any point of view, Lin Xiao knows that the other party is temporarily on his side, after all, there is nothing left for the Mufeng Inn to be plotted by.
If Ban Zhenming is Lin Xiao's person. So after seeing Chihuo and Sha Yunyue, Lin Xiao didn't think that Tang Dou would figure out a little guy like her who hadn't grown up.
"Why did you choose this place, it's been a long time since there have been guests here!" Lin Xiao finally couldn't help but ask curiously.
"This is what my family Dongfang said, she has been here before. Probably...... Sixty years ago. She knows the original boss here!" Tang Dou said truthfully.
Lin Xiao took a look at Sha Yunyue, as an elf half-blood, she could naturally see the identity of Sha Yunyue's pure-blooded elf more accurately. This is also a little strange, when did the pure-blood elf marry someone else? And it is still with a human, and it is also a bald head!(Tang Dou has always been a bald head since he became Yao Ding, and he still wore a wig when he disguised himself as Di Renjie, and now he doesn't wear a wig anymore).
However, Lin Xiao was not more concerned about this, but: "Do you know Dad?"
"If you're talking about the same person as I'm talking about, then I know. Mu Feng, if I'm not mistaken, should be one hundred and ten years old by now, he's a left-hander. When he was young, he liked to drink, and he especially liked to nag, always telling people the story of his own adventures in the rivers and lakes, but in fact he has always been a small businessman, and the rivers and lakes are all a story for him!" Sha Yunyue said with a chuckle.
The expression on Lin Xiao's face was wonderful: "I'm sure you know Dad." I haven't talked to outsiders for ten years since my dad got sick, and my older siblings haven't come back, and I was adopted by my dad twenty years ago, so I'm sure you're the dad I met twenty years ago!"
"So we're really just passing by!" Tang Dou spread his hands.
"Is Daddy Mufeng sick? Let me see, I know how to heal!" Sha Yunyue said with concern.
"Yes, my family is the first doctor in the world...... Well, at least that's what I think!" Tang Dou almost said something out of his mouth. So I hurriedly added.
"Oh, good, good!" Lin Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then led the way in front in a little confusion.
"Brother Tang, what are you doing?" asked Sha Yunyue Chuanyin.
Just now, Tang Dou used a little trick and used a self-created rune. This rune is called a "biased rune" by Tang Dou, the name is very ordinary, but the effect is quite amazing, as long as the opponent's strength is not as good as Tang Dou, and there is no hostility towards Tang Dou, then under the influence of this rune, the bias to Tang Dou will be indicated.
To put it simply, this is a kind of rune with a hypnotic effect, which cannot be used against enemies, and is specially designed to fool ordinary people.
"Get around the hassle and get to the heart of the matter. Things at this Woodwind Inn won't be that simple. A small dilapidated inn, is it worth a guy like Ban Zhenming to invite a silver-level thug to appear? Just to marry Lin Xiao? Do you believe me. Not to mention it from afar, how can Ben Zhenming's scum know the dinosaur? Can he still make the dinophob obey his orders? So behind these two people, there will definitely be a mastermind behind the scenes. And what would such a person do to the Mufeng Inn?"
As a conspiracy theorist, Tang Dou had already made up millions of words of various conspiracies in his mind when Ban Zhenming and them appeared.
"What you say is reasonable!" Sha Yunyue nodded: "So we went directly to Daddy Mu Feng and asked about the situation?"
"Otherwise, continue to entangle with these little ghosts, in case we miss the opportunity, it is small for us to get into trouble, whether these little ghosts can live or not is a big question!" Tang Dou knew too much how to convince Sha Yunyue.
"Okay, I understand!" Sure enough, when it came to the safety of Lin Xiao and the others, Sha Yunyue immediately stopped hesitating.
Under the influence of the bias towards runes, Lin Xiao didn't ask anything more, and took Tang Dou and Sha Yunyue to the back hall, and soon came to an old room.
There was a heavy curtain hanging at the door of the room, and before he entered the room, Tang Dou could keenly feel that the temperature in the room was more than twenty degrees higher than outside, and it could be used to take a sauna.
"You move lightly, Daddy has been very afraid of the cold since he got sick!" Lin Xiao opened the door curtain first.
Double curtains, plus a room door sealed with thick kraft paper, the heat insulation of the whole room has achieved an extreme - this has been the case for Lin Xiao and these little ghosts since childhood.
After entering the room, a wave of heat rushed in, and Tang Dou glanced at it and found that it was not a stove that was heating the room. Rather, it was a rune array, seven or eight small heat-generating runes distributed from all angles of the room, making the whole room as hot as a sauna, but not damp.
seemed to see Tang Dou's surprise. Lin Xiao explained in a low voice: "I got these by myself, my father used to get a book on the beginning of runes, and I only knew one or two!"
Tang Dou took a closer look at one of the heating runes, and found that it was actually a self-consistent energy structure, which directly absorbed free spiritual energy from the air to maintain the operation of the rune array. If it was a large rune array, then this self-consistent energy structure would be a fairly sophisticated link, but this palm-sized small array would be nothing. However, if Lin Xiao is really completely self-taught, it can only be said that her talent in this area is also amazing.
Although Tang Dou has a lot of runes now, most of them are self-created, all because of the guidance of Tianma Bone Bamboo and the mirror masters. The real rune system of the Thousand Souls Spirit Realm doesn't know much. This shows how difficult it is to really learn runic literature. And Lin Xiaoneng can learn the self-consistent energy structure by self-learning, and he can definitely be a genius.
"Xiao'er, are you here?" an old voice rang out in the room.
In the angle of the room, a large plank bed. A figure slowly and laboriously propped himself up.
Lin Xiao immediately took a few steps forward and supported the man: "Dad, these two people said they knew you before!"
"Oh, are you?" Father Mu Feng raised his eyes to look at Tang Dou and the two of them suspiciously, and there was no reaction when he swept over Tang Dou, but when his eyes fell on Sha Yunyue, he immediately showed a look of doubt.
"I'm Artels, remember me?" Sha Yunyue said, pronouncing the name of her elven native language.
Father Mu Feng was slightly stunned, and his expression changed greatly: "It turned out to be you, cough cough...... Are you here...... Xiao'er, they are indeed my old friends. They haven't seen me for decades, they don't age, and I'm half a foot in the coffin. Ahem, you go and gather the kids together. Closed the store. I have something to say to them individually!"
Lin Xiao looked at Father Mu Feng with some confusion, but he still didn't say anything, oh answered, turned around and left.
Tang Dou could feel that Lin Xiao did not linger at the door, but walked straight to the outer hall.
"Now you can tell me, who are you? You're not Mu Feng!" Sha Yunyue's face sank.
Tang Dou was not surprised. He felt strange when he saw Mu Feng just now, the other party seemed to be aging, but in fact, his body aura was quite young, not at all like a centenarian, and more importantly, this person was not even a human being, but a hybrid of humans and demons, and that special aura was as bright as a light in the dark night for Tang Dou, the medicine ding.
"Sixty years gone, Artels. Don't you remember me? I'm the second son! The second son, Zhou Dong!" The aura on the man's body changed instantly, and although he was still weak, he was no longer old.
"Zhou Dong, are you Zhou Dong, the eyebrows are indeed a little similar, but they are different. What's the matter with your face? It's actually a little similar to Mu Feng? And didn't you say you wouldn't go back to Mu Feng Inn? Where is Mu Feng? Why are you pretending to be him?" Sha Yunyue slammed over with a series of questions.
Zhou Dong coughed twice: "It's been a long time, and I don't think you're interested in listening to such a long story." I'll just keep it simple. I left back to find a way out, Daddy Mufeng is a good person, but he is too good and will only drag himself down, so I want to find a way out. After 10 years of wandering outside, I stumbled upon a treasure, but I was also hunted down because of it. Desperate, I fled back to the city of Kinun, where I survived in the ruined area!"
"But I was still discovered, severely injured, and when I was dying, I came to the neighborhood in a daze, and was picked up by Daddy Mufeng. You can also guess what happened after that, Daddy Mu Feng is a good person, not only did he not hold a grudge against my departure, but he also didn't care about the status quo of me being hunted down, he hid me for two years. But in the end, it was still discovered, and in the end, Daddy Mu Feng came up with a way, he worked as a healer for a period of time when he was young, so he manipulated my face and disguised me as him!"
"And he broke his face and disguised himself as me. Leave with a fake treasure. I haven't seen him since, and I really want to go to him, but on the one hand, my injuries have not improved, and on the other hand, when he left, I vowed to continue to open the Wood Wind Inn, and I must do my best to save those wandering children! Then as Mu Feng, continue to drive this inn!"
"Twenty years ago, I adopted Lin Xiao, and then I don't know if God played a joke on me, or if Daddy Mufeng came back here in the dark, I adopted more and more children, and soon became what it is now. But 10 years ago, my injuries recurred, and I couldn't suppress them, so I had to live here forever. Lin Xiao is a well-behaved child, she takes care of me and those children at the same time. It's a pity that the Mufeng Inn still can't sustain itself!"
"I suspect those who haven't given up on the treasure have sniffed some wind. However, because of some wind directions in the city of Kinunu in recent years, they did not dare to come to the door with great fanfare, but used various means, thinking that on the one hand, they were not sure of the news, and on the other hand, they did not want the news to be exposed. I've been recuperating from my injuries for the past year, hoping to suppress a few points and then go out and draw the attention of those people. As long as those people's attention is no longer on the Mufeng Inn, Lin Xiao, this kid, will definitely be able to continue to open the inn!"
Speaking of this, Zhou Dong smiled bitterly: "It's just that I didn't expect it, but I waited for you to appear first, Artels, are you here to kill me?"
"My current name is Dongfang, and this is my ...... Fiance. I don't want to kill you, and I don't want to interfere in your affairs, but I will verify what you say, and if I find out that you lied to me, if I find out that Mu Feng was actually killed by you, I will definitely not let you go!" Sha Yunyue said in a deep voice.
"Mu Feng was originally killed by me. If I hadn't been around here at the time, I wouldn't have let him pick me up again!" Zhou Dong sighed.
"I'll judge this myself!" Sha Yunyue's expression was solemn: "I'll treat you first." You're not just injured, you're poisoned!"
"Then, thank you!" Zhou Dong hesitated, but nodded. (To be continued.) )
