Chapter 40: The Old Man of the House
In the distance, the jack-of-all-trades saw a petite black figure running towards him.
Hidden in the rain, his figure was a little trance-like, but it became clearer and clearer.
Flowers bloom under your feet with every step, and the footsteps become denser and denser, as if they are shouting eagerly.
The long strands of hair were thrown out of the back of the head in one arc after another, as if dancing.
Looking at Feng Qi, who was constantly approaching him, the know-it-all couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The physician behind him held an oil-paper umbrella drawn in ink for the jack-of-all-trades, the edge of which was pressed low to cover most of his face.
After waiting for a long time in the cold wind, the know-it-all still had a ruddy face.
I've been cultivating in the dungeon in recent days, and my body is getting better, but I can't do it yet.
Feng Qi soon came to the jack of all trades, and his face was a little ugly.
The know-it-all just smiled softly and said in a soft voice, "Thank you for your hard work." ”
Sure enough, the Killing Heart Guanyin soon came here.
He saw the ghost soldier behind the jack-of-all-trades, and he looked suddenly enlightened.
"Sure enough, it's the people of the dungeon, too, I don't know which one of the dungeons are you?"
The jack-of-all-trades lowered his head, cut off by an umbrella through the pouring rain, so the murderous Guanyin couldn't see his face clearly.
"The co-pilot, the chief eunuch, but the one who wants to arrest me?"
Murderous Guanyin suppressed his throat and laughed a few times, "That's right, this person is a prisoner appointed by the imperial court, if the dungeon insists on protecting it, then our family can only be polite." ”
"What if I don't?"
"We thought that the dungeon didn't want to tear its face so quickly, and it seems that the ghost king was also in a bit of a hurry."
"The Ghost King is strategizing, so he can't interfere in these small things."
Killing Guanyin gently pulled out the sharp blade on his waist, and his voice was quite cold.
"In that case, it looks like I'm going to have to meet you today."
The know-it-all still didn't look up, just patted the back of Feng Qi's hand, "Do you want to try?" ”
Feng Qi didn't speak, just nodded and stood up, holding the moon in his hand very tightly.
Know-it-all raised his voice a little, with a rare calmness, as if he was appeasing.
"Don't worry, the chief eunuch won't embarrass you, a child, if something happens, I'll take care of it for you."
I really didn't expect a jack-of-all-trades to say such a thing, and the Murderous Guanyin actually smiled, which was really funny.
The Praetorian Guards who had been following the Killing Heart Guanyin were not happy, and directly stood in front of the Killing Heart Guanyin.
"A little thief is also worthy of fighting with the chief eunuch?"
"Why don't you let me meet you!"
The know-it-all covered his mouth and smiled lightly, "But it's just to try my child's ability, the chief eunuch can't help but look down on people too much, right?" ”
Killing Guanyin glanced at the ghost soldiers behind him, raised his hand and used his sword to push away the Praetorian Guard.
"Look at what you said, since the dungeon wants to try it, how can our family refuse?"
"Just ......"
His eyes rolled slightly, and his voice suddenly became cold.
"It's just that our shot is not light or heavy, and it won't be good if we hurt your little girl."
The hand twisting the Buddha beads has been behind his back, looking light and breezy, this struggle is like a game.
And Feng Qi tried his best, but he was still suppressed by the murderous Guanyin everywhere.
She knew very well in her heart that as long as Guanyin was willing, she could cut off her head almost with a raise of her hand.
I have always thought that my strength is not bad, although it is not as good as Shen Chi, but I can also have a few tricks with the Murderous Guanyin.
But now it seems that he is wrong, in front of this person, he is an ant.
Feng Qi lowered his body, slid to the front of the Killing Guanyin, and stabbed at his heart.
However, the Murderous Guanyin only turned sideways slightly, and raised his hand to block it with a long knife.
The swords converged in midair, making a metallic humming sound, and the jade beads that had been split scattered in all directions.
Feng Qi immediately made a splash of kicking, and the Murderous Guanyin couldn't help but squint and retreat slightly.
When Feng Qi attacked again, the Murderous Guanyin abandoned the long knife in his hand.
Without waiting for Feng Qi to react, the Killing Heart Guanyin slashed towards Feng Qi with one palm.
Feng Qi used the moon in his hand to block it a little in a panic, but he was still forced to slide backwards.
This palm is really powerful, even if it is separated by a month, Feng Qi feels a pain in his chest.
If it weren't for the murderous Guanyin who accepted it when he saw it and didn't continue the pursuit, Feng Qi felt that he was almost splashed with blood on the spot.
There was a buzzing sound in my ears, and even the position of the tiger's mouth was faintly painful, as if it was about to be torn apart.
Her body retreated to the jack-of-all-trades, but it was the know-it-all that stabilized Feng Qi.
Feng Qi felt the sudden force behind him, was slightly stunned, and slowly stood up with a half-kneeling body.
Her heart was full of consternation, no wonder she was known as the Murderous Guanyin, which should not be underestimated.
After repelling Feng Qi, the long knife that was abandoned by the Killing Heart Guanyin fell into the hands of the Praetorian Guards safely.
Killing Guanyin seemed to smile, "It seems that the people carefully cultivated in the dungeon are nothing more than that." ”
He seemed to be defiant, "Is that person dead?" We're quite interested in that person. ”
Presumably what he said was Shen Chi, indeed, people who can enter the eyes of Guanyin do have some ability.
The know-it-all just looked at Feng Qi and smiled, "Do you know the gap between you?" ”
Only then did Feng Qi understand that the meaning of the one-size-fits-all move was for his own good.
He nodded, and retreated behind the jack-of-all-trades, but the hand kept shouting.
Killing Guanyin just raised his hand, and the group of Praetorian Guards was about to rush forward.
"If you don't have an opinion, we're going to do it."
At this time, the jack-of-all-trades raised his hand unhurriedly, and the umbrella that had been covering it was too high.
His voice was as gentle as ever, and there was not the slightest hint of anger to be heard.
"Killing Guanyin, I said, this person is mine."
The expression on Guanyin's face was obviously stagnant, and he narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he wanted to see more clearly.
But when he saw the appearance of the jack of all trades clearly, his face suddenly became solemn.
He motioned for the Praetorian Guards to retreat, and stood there in silence for a long time.
The four eyes meet each other, and their gaze meets in mid-air.
He looked at the know-it-all eyes, as if he had seen an old man who had not been seen for a long time, and there were all kinds of emotions that needed to be vented.
But a deep ravine was cut between the two, and he could only stand at one end and look weakly.
After a while, Guanyin's steps of killing heart suddenly retreated, seemingly helpless, and it seemed to be something else.
In short, he sighed deeply and lowered his eyes slightly, a little disappointed, but also pleasantly surprised.
He bowed unhurriedly and said nothing.
The know-it-all still couldn't help coughing lightly a few times, and his whole shoulder couldn't help but tremble a little.
Feng Qi saw that Guanyin's brows were tightly furrowed, and he pursed his lips, as if he was worried.
He tried his best to suppress his emotions and spit out a few words lukewarmly.
"Cherish, I hope we will never see you again in the future."
After saying this, he left with all the Janissaries.
Feng Qi frowned slightly, and his eyes involuntarily looked at the jack-of-all-trades.
Know-it-all straightened out the hem of his clothes, and said lightly: "Are you very curious about Guanyin's attitude after seeing me?" ”
Feng Qi didn't say anything, and the jack-of-all-trades didn't mean to answer.
He just raised his hand lazily, "It's been long enough for me to come out, and if I don't go back, Lord Ghost King will be angry again." ”
He raised his eyes and looked at Feng Qi, "Go back and see the Yun family, maybe you won't see it in the future." ”
Although he didn't understand what the last sentence of the jack-of-all-trades meant, Feng Qi decided to go back and take a look first.
The two groups of people separated, and Feng Qi went back to Yunfu directly.
It's just halfway through, and a trace suddenly emerges in my heart, that is, the ghost envoy walked in the direction of the Murderous Guanyin.
didn't go far Feng Qi caught up with the murderous Guanyin and the others, but they were hidden in the corner of the alley far away, and no one found them.
She knew what she was doing, like a mouse that followed the smell of a cat.
And the purpose of this mouse is not to kill the cat or anything else.
Just want to see what this cat is giving up a rat nest for, and what will he do next?
But soon, Feng Qi found the answer.
I saw the murderous Guanyin leading a string of people into the alley that no one had set foot in, and then there was a wail all over the sky.
The cries of each other were intertwined with the sound of heavy rain falling on the ground, like a song in purgatory, resentful and fearful.
The rain washed over the ground, bringing out a large pool of bright red blood.
The pungent smell of blood mixed with the rain spread, and the rain didn't seem to wash away the evils here.
Looking at the messy pile of corpses in the alley, Murderous Guanyin just wiped his face unhurriedly.
It's been a long time since I've done anything like this.
The people who die under their own knives have always been the prey of their own eyes, but so many people today are different.
Feng Qi was startled, and quickly left the alley.
But I still couldn't help beating wildly in my heart, why did Guanyin kill these Praetorian Guards?
He's the one he brought with you, isn't he?
She forced herself to calm down and began to think carefully about everything, the grasp of everything, the expression on the face of Murderous Guanyin when she saw him, and everything that was happening now.
Know-it-all has been staying in the dungeon and not showing up, maybe not only because of physical reasons, but also because of other things.
And the Murderous Guanyin knows him, and his identity is by no means ordinary.
And his appearance may happen to other things, and the Murderous Guanyin does not allow anyone other than him to see the appearance of the jack-of-all-trades.
Therefore, the killing heart Guanyin is to kill all these people.
After the truth of the speculation gradually took shape in his mind, Feng Qi became more and more nervous.
The five chief eunuchs are the emperor's people, and the know-it-all is the people of the dungeon, and there is quite a gap between the dungeon and the emperor.
Is it a jack of all trades......
The sound of heavy rain was still in my ears, and the sound of hitting the ground was particularly crisp.
Back in Yunfu, Yun Qing and Huaizhun were waiting outside.
Seeing that Feng Qi was back, both of them hurriedly greeted him, and Yun Qing hurriedly put the cloak in his hand on Feng Qi.
His face was full of worry, "Ah Zhuo, are you okay?" ”
The concern that Huai Zhun just wanted to speak was also forcibly held back, and he looked at Yun Qing and frowned slightly.
Feng Qi smiled slightly and shook his head, "Brother, I'm fine." ”
Yun Qing hurriedly pulled Feng Qi into the house, "Are you injured?" ”
Feng Qi still shook his head, "Don't worry, I'm fine." ”
At this time, Feng Qi turned his gaze to Huai Zhun's body, Huai Zhun lowered his eyes slightly, and looked at Yun Qing's appearance very unpleasantly.
Feng Qi pursed his lips, "Senior brother, thank you for helping me." ”
Huaizhun just narrowed his eyes, "Your business is my business, you don't have to be so polite with my senior brother." ”
Yun Qing glanced at Huai Zhun, senior brother......
He looked at Feng Qi, "Uncle and aunt are in the court, do you want to meet them?" ”
Feng Qi was silent for a while, then shook his head.
"No, presumably my mother doesn't want to see me now, Yunfu should be fine, and I won't come again in the future."
After saying that, Feng Qi took a step back, and Huai Zhun also stood by Feng Qi's side.
She smiled at Yun Qing, "Then, brother, I'm leaving." ”
Yun Qing frowned tightly, wanting to keep it, but the words of keeping it still didn't come out.
After leaving today, maybe there really won't be a chance to meet, his eyes gradually dimmed.
Today's arrival of the Murderous Guanyin seems to have suddenly made him understand something, and what he has been pursuing seems to have come to fruition.
The ones who did it to Yun Sheng and Yun Qi were probably these people.
Ah Zhuo is right, such a person is indeed impossible to provoke the Yun family, but it is really impossible to let himself give up like this.
Feng Qi took a few steps and paused, but finally turned around and hugged Yun Qing tightly.
She didn't know why she was doing it, but she felt she should.
Maybe this goodbye is for a better meeting next time, but Feng Qi thinks it's better for some people not to meet again.
