Chapter 11: Meet Again
At dusk, a red sun hangs obliquely.
Mo Hansheng walked alone on the official road, and his shadow was stretched by the afterglow of the sunset.
He had messy hair and ragged clothes, and a yellow-skinned mouse on his left shoulder, like a wild man in the mountains.
On his right shoulder, he carried a simple knife wrapped in white cloth, and the tip of the knife carried a gray and black tiger skin, like a down-and-out swordsman.
"Stone Mountain, how long do we have to get to Sunset Mountain?" Mo Hansheng asked.
"It's coming." Ishiyama rolled over lazily.
"This is the hundredth and wrong time you've said that." Mo Hansheng stretched out two fingers to clamp the remaining severed tail and lifted it upside down.
"You kid show respect to this real person!" Stone Mountain's four short claws fluttered wildly in the air.
Mo Hansheng couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Since he taught himself a set of nameless internal skills and the eight methods in the sword, this former Jindan real person has completely become the shopkeeper.
In addition to eating and sleeping all day long, the small life is very relaxed and comfortable, and only occasionally when he walks to a deserted place will he come out to show the way.
But after its sworn guidance, Mo Hansheng could clearly feel that he had taken a lot of wrongful paths, and several times he strayed into danger and was chased by hornets and monkeys and fled in embarrassment.
This made its image of a master in Mo Hansheng's heart plummet.
Shi Shan stopped struggling and said, "Don't make trouble, someone is coming." ”
"Don't try to change the subject." Mo Hansheng was about to hit it, but his left ear suddenly trembled slightly, and then he lay down on the ground and listened intently.
"It's the sound of horses' hooves and wheels, and it's not small."
Mo Hansheng got up and hid behind a large rock to observe secretly.
The sound became clearer, and a convoy gradually approached from a distance.
A pair of handsome men and women rode black and white horses side by side, talking and laughing along the way, as if they were very familiar with each other.
Behind them were six tall wagons, surrounded by eighteen burly guards guarding the convoy in the middle.
Seeing the person coming clearly, Mo Hansheng and Shi Shan said in unison: "Is it her?" ”
The woman riding the white horse was none other than Ning Xitao, the eldest lady of the Ning Mansion.
The man beside her had a handsome face, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a three-foot sword at his waist, looking quite graceful.
"Do you know the kid on the black horse?" Shi Shan turned his head, but saw that Mo Hansheng had a different look on his face, and his eyes were staring straight at the two of them.
Mo Hansheng's eyes were slightly cold, he clenched his fists and lightly slammed the ground, gritted his teeth and said word by word: "Lu, Shao, Tang." ”
"Hehe, rivals in love are very red when they meet." Shi Shan was originally a human spirit who had lived for hundreds of years, and instantly smelled the sudden sour smell on Mo Hansheng's body.
The convoy continued on its way, deserted all the way, until the moon was over, when it finally stopped in front of an inn called "Youlai", and no one noticed that a black tail was followed behind it.
All six carriages came to a halt.
A familiar face of Mo Hansheng trotted briskly to the first carriage and knelt on the ground.
A man walked out of the car, short in stature and delicate, and stepped on the man's back and got out of the car.
The subordinate who knelt on the ground was Ning Da, but he didn't expect him to be in the convoy.
What surprised Mo Hansheng even more was that the legendary Uncle Ning Mansion was actually a dwarf who was more than three feet tall.
On the second carriage came a middle-aged man in a blue robe with a goatee.
The group was tired and dusty, and soon settled down in the inn, and after dinner, they entered the guest room early to rest.
It was late at night, and there was silence in the inn, with the occasional figure passing by the faint flickering lights.
Ning Da put on a coat and walked out of the room, and walked hurriedly to the backyard.
He was about to reach out and push open the door of the hut when a strong wind hit behind him.
With a "bang", Ning Da snorted and fell backwards.
A masked man in black reached out to hold him, took a cautious look around, and then slipped out of the inn with one hand on his shoulder.
The man in black carried Ning Da into a small forest and threw him under a big tree.
"You look at him, I'll go find some water." The black shadow took off the black scarf on his face, and it was Mo Hansheng who was following the convoy all the way.
"Go ahead." Ishiyama waved his hand.
It wasn't until it was a little impatient that Mo Hansheng walked briskly with a broken crockpot.
"Wow."
A jar of water poured straight into Ning Damen's door, and he opened his eyes in a daze, only to see a black-clothed masked man staring at him coldly.
He was about to cry out when his mouth was stopped by a thick black wooden stick.
"Don't scream, ask you something, you answer what ......"
Before the man in black could finish his threatening words, a yellow-skinned mouse appeared on his shoulder, waving his claws and saying viciously: "Don't say a word, hehe......"
"Monster, monster ......" Ning Da saw this strange scene, rolled his eyes and fainted again.
Mo Hansheng turned his head and glared at it angrily, and said, "Who told you to come out?" ”
Shi Shan sneered and quibbled: "This kid has really never seen the world, so it's a big fuss." ”
————
A quarter of an hour later, Ning Da, who woke up again, was knocked unconscious by Mo Hansheng again with a skillful stick.
From his mouth, Mo Hansheng already knew the reason why Ning Mansion and his party had traveled a long distance to come here.
It turned out that the ancestral hall of Ningfu was destroyed overnight, and the Ning family has been investigating the cause of the fire.
The only person who may know what happened is the only son of Uncle Ningfu who escaped from the fire.
Unexpectedly, the little young master didn't know if he was frightened in the ancestral hall, and after he came out, he began to become abnormal, not only could he not speak, but the whole person also became stupid.
This time it was a big deal in the house, and I invited famous doctors from all over the village, and the little young master's strange illness did not improve in the slightest.
Two months ago, the eldest lady Ning Xitao received a message from Lu Shaotang, a young chivalrous guest she met when she traveled abroad.
This Lu Daxia claimed that his ancestor had an old relationship with an immortal master in Sunset Mountain, and he was willing to match Ningfu to introduce this immortal master.
Uncle Ning Fu thought for a moment, immediately prepared a generous gift, and brought his beloved son all the way to seek medical treatment.
"Sunset Mountain ......" Mo Hansheng groaned and muttered to himself, "I didn't expect that Ning Mansion's goal would be the same as ours, just so that they could lead the way in front." ”
Shi Shan said with some resentment: "Are you questioning the guidance level of the real person?" ”
Mo Hansheng asked rhetorically: "We also set off from Hidden Dragon Town, we stumbled all the way for nearly half a year to get here, but we were caught up by the Ningfu convoy that just set off two months ago, doesn't it explain the problem?" ”
"It's not important, what you should care about is that it was the second eldest of the Ning family who came with the boss of the Ning family, not the steward surnamed Feng." Shi Shan knew that he was wrong, so he smiled and changed the topic.
Mo Hansheng asked, "What do you mean?" ”
"I'm afraid that the two brothers of the Ning family have their own ghosts, and they are all beware of the other party's embezzlement of the treasures in the treasure house."
"For the sake of treasure, are you brother against brother?" Mo Hansheng was stunned and said with some emotion.
"You haven't seen the treasures in the Ning Mansion Treasure Vault with your own eyes to be so light." Shi Shan said, "In fact, the treasures brought by the Ning Mansion convoy are at most a drop in the bucket. ”
"These have nothing to do with me, I just want to find the location of the sect of Sunset Mountain as soon as possible." Mo Hansheng shook his head and said.
Shi Shan said with a smile: "But I'm afraid your plan to use the Ning family's convoy to explore the path won't go too well." ”
Mo Hansheng's eyes flashed, and he said thoughtfully: "Is there really a problem with this inn?" ”
"What did you find?"
"It's just that when I sneaked into the inn before, I accidentally observed that although the tables, chairs, walls, and beams in the inn are old, some of the edges are still very new." Mo Hansheng pondered the wording, and said with some uncertainty, "It seems that there is a suspicion of deliberately doing the old." ”
"There is no doubt that this is a newly built inn, and the construction period is very urgent, in order not to be discovered, a lot of spices are deliberately sprinkled in the inn to cover the smell."
"In such a remote place, there will be someone running an inn here, and the store has worked hard to hide the truth about the new renovation of the inn, and the inn name is so special, the 'Youlai' inn, there is no return, and many coincidences together are unlikely to be coincidences." As he spoke, Shi Shan's eyes suddenly lit up, he turned his head to look at the inn, and sneered, "Do it." ”
