Chapter 46: Suddenly a Prisoner
Deacon Huang's sudden words were like a hand suddenly inserted into Meng Zhou's chest, clenching his heart fiercely.
But he still asked with a blank look on his face:
"Senpai, what are you talking about? Tan Kaiming...... What's wrong with Tan Kaiming? ”
Deacon Huang didn't seem to bother to go around in circles with him, and talked to himself.
"In the past few months, the tasks of the sect have suddenly increased, and I am rarely in the miscellaneous courtyard, but I am not always absent.
A few times when I was at home, I wanted to invite you together, but unfortunately, every time you were in retreat, I didn't want to disturb you.
I feel that you have suddenly become old and determined, and your transformation of sex has been a little too thorough. ”
"However, this is nothing, and the change of people is often just a matter of thought, right?
When I came back this time, I suddenly received a message from the door, saying that Tan Kaiming had several consecutive records of absenteeism, and asked me to pay attention to this matter.
I was still very strange at the time, although the real guy likes to hang out like you before, but he is very conscientious in his job.
I just looked for the reason, I couldn't find anyone in the hospital, I asked a few people, and they all said that they hadn't seen him for a long time, and I thought he hadn't returned for a long time, either without saying goodbye, or because he had an accident.
But I called up the formation record to take a look, only to find that the last record he left was to return, not to go out. ”
"That's weird, the formation record won't be wrong, it's also a fact that there is no one in the courtyard, and I can't see anyone alive or dead.
Of course, I have to take a closer look at this, doesn't this remind me of the old grudge between you and him. You broke off your friendship with him, and he made your rumors. ”
"It wasn't a big deal, and I didn't think much of it at the time, but when I got a glimpse of how you're doing.
Good guy, it just scared me, this change is so great, it's like a different person. ”
Meng Zhou's eyelids jumped fiercely, but Deacon Huang ruled out the correct answer as soon as possible.
"At that time, I thought that you were not simple, this is what you have been hiding all along!"
"To say, this is nothing, there are many monks who hide clumsiness, and you are not one of them.
But these things come together, I don't think I can pay more attention to you! ”
"I haven't heard of retreats and penances to be closed to the end of the world, and it's better to go out and relax once in a while.
It's strange that you can't take a step out of hiding in the courtyard, as if there was some flood beast out there that could kill you at any time.
…… Anyway, the more I think about it, the more suspicious you find and the bigger the problem. ”
Deacon Huang really didn't hide it at all, and told him how he "dug up" Meng Zhou little by little.
But listening to his analysis, Meng Zhou's heart, which was originally held fiercely, relaxed a little.
"I've always been curious about the reason behind this, and it's really curious, right?
Moreover, how can I say that you are also a soldier under me now, if I don't know anything about your real situation, I can't sleep steadily! ”
"Did you find the reason?" Meng Zhou finally didn't continue to be silent, but asked.
A smile bloomed on Deacon Huang's face, and he clapped his hands and said:
"Originally, I couldn't figure it out, who doesn't have any secrets in this market, unless I ask you, who knows what the real reason is?
But isn't this a coincidence, after I came back this time, I heard something from other fellow doors, which was connected with the mystery in you, and my heart suddenly became clear! ”
As he said this, his eyes stared at Meng Zhou, as if he wanted Meng Zhou to ask what was going on.
However, Meng Zhou didn't ask, he shook his head with a little regret, and said to himself:
"The Law Enforcement Hall destroyed Mei Xiang Lou with the power of thunder, and many inner disciples participated in it, combined with Mei Xiang Lou's past information, and dug up a lot of interesting news.
One of the most talked about is that everyone says that Mei Xianglou has mastered an evil method that can quickly improve cultivation. ”
Deacon Huang's gaze was fixed on Meng Zhou's face, as if he wanted to watch for the slightest change in his expression.
"One of the discussions is also very interesting, because all the people who use that evil method are female cultivators, and some people speculate that this evil method has limitations, and it is only effective for female cultivators, not for male cultivators.
However, some people retorted that a place like Meixianglou is not suitable for male cultivators to hide, even if they secretly cultivate male cultivators, they will not put it there, and they will definitely be quietly placed elsewhere. ”
Listening to Deacon Huang's narration, the thoughts in Meng Zhou's heart were very strange.
He looked at this matter from the perspective of the true legend "Xia Qing", and felt that it was correct to set fire to the evil shrine in the first place.
Otherwise, with such a positive attitude in this matter, if they knew that the source of the evil law was still there, they would be afraid that they would break their heads and get this evil law to try it themselves.
And Deacon Huang's visit with such a "frank" posture is also a covetous and peeping heart for this evil law.
Facing Deacon Huang's undisguised inquiring gaze, Meng Zhou shook his head again and again in defense.
"Senior, your association ability is too rich, how can I have such a relationship with Mei Xianglou!"
But Deacon Huang did not listen to him:
"Heh, it's not a matter of words, anyway, I linked the mystery on your body with Mei Xianglou, and suddenly I understood everything.
The only intersection between you and Tan Kaiming is the place where the fence is hooked, why did you suddenly have a contradiction?
You are hiding in the courtyard and are so afraid to go out, what are you afraid of, what are you hiding?
Why don't you continue to hide?
Linking your changes with the changes in Mei Xianglou in the past six months, you can really find a lot of interesting details. ”
Speaking of this, Deacon Huang put his hands behind his back, stared at Meng Zhou and asked with interest:
"If what I expected is right, when your cultivation broke through to the sixth layer of Qi cultivation, it was after Tan Kaiming disappeared and the Law Enforcement Hall destroyed Mei Xianglou, right?"
You guessed it, but it's not your brain.
Meng Zhou's face was helpless, "You probably won't believe what I say now, are you going to send me to the Law Enforcement Hall now?" ”
"What am I sending you to the Law Enforcement Hall for? You didn't do anything to endanger the sect. ”
Deacon Huang shook his head, and suddenly reminded:
"Oh, before I came, I eliminated the previous formation record today, and Tan Kaiming's matter was also resolved.
Now, you know it, I know it! ”
Meng Zhou was silent for a while before asking, "Senior, what do you really want?" ”
Deacon Huang did not answer directly, but said something unrelated.
"I often went out during this time, and I neglected to take care of the miscellaneous house, and the miscellaneous servants became a lot more casual without control, so that Tan Kaiming was absent from work several times.
The opinion of the deacon hall is to let me find a deacon deputy from the trustworthy handyman old man, help me keep an eye on it when I am not there, solve the things that can be solved, and report to the deacon hall as soon as possible if it can't be solved. ”
Speaking of this, he stared at Meng Zhou and said with a smile: "I reported your name." ”
Meng Zhou was so shocked that he waved his hand again and again, "I'...... How can I afford such a heavy responsibility? No, no! ”
Deacon Huang said: "Why not, you are just the eyes of my absence, and besides, you are just a name, and there is really something in the miscellaneous courtyard, and my wife will solve it." ”
Meng Zhou was a little stunned, it turned out to be a puppet in front of the stage.
In that case, why don't you just nominate your wife, this deacon's deacon, why bother?
"In the future, you won't have to go to the pit every five days to clean the pit pool, and I've already assigned someone else to take care of it.
However, the cost of cleaning up the thirty-three medium-grade spirit stones per month is still up to you, and you can just hand over the required talismans to my wife on a regular basis, which can be regarded as a little benefit I give you. ”
Speaking of this, he stepped forward and patted Meng Zhou on the shoulder.
"From now on, you can retreat and practice in the Miscellaneous Courtyard with peace of mind."
Meng Zhou was startled, and suddenly realized something.
"That'...... That feeling is good, I just went to the market to go shopping and buy some items. ”
Deacon Huang's hand on his shoulder pressed down slightly hard, and said with a smile:
"It's good for you to retreat in the miscellaneous courtyard with peace of mind, didn't the Chen family brothers handle things properly before?"
After explaining everything, Deacon Huang also encouraged him to do it well, and be relieved, and wait for the sect to be busy for this period of time.
Deacon Huang is gone.
Meng Zhou looked in the direction of the gate of the miscellaneous courtyard, "Now, I have really become a prisoner." ”
Before, he didn't want to go out, he didn't dare to go out.
Now, he is not allowed to go out, he cannot go out.
He also figured out the intention of Deacon Huang's visit, he wanted to control himself, he wanted to completely dominate himself, and he didn't even want to hand himself over to the sect.
He wants to slowly and completely, squeeze out all the value that may exist in himself.
