Chapter 260: The Empty House

After entering Sword Saint City this time, Wu Qixue was obedient, he did not search aimlessly as he did when he entered the Rosa Kingdom, but directly took the group of lawbreakers to his residence in Sword Saint City, the home of Grandma Via, the medicine master. As soon as he came to the door, Wuqi knocked on the door excitedly and shouted, "Is anyone there?"

No one answered, so he patiently knocked twice in a row and shouted, "Visa, are you at home?"

Still no answer. Wuqi couldn't help but feel a little strange, he thought to himself for a moment, and then continued to knock on the door twice.

At this time, from a small road not far behind them, there was a middle-aged man with a hoe, he was wearing a pair of black cloth trousers, his upper body was naked, his trouser legs were stained with some mud, and there were beads of sweat the size of beans rolling down his face, apparently he had just returned from farm work.

Xiusi blocked the other party's way and wanted to ask out loud, but before he could speak, the middle-aged man was so frightened that his legs trembled and his face was as pale as snow. Xius didn't even have a chance to ask questions, but after seeing the man suddenly open his mouth and call out "Mom", he ran away like smoke, and even threw his hoe to the ground.

"Don't mind, Brother Hughes. You don't know the Dao, they are just ordinary people, and even cultivators have never really seen them. The first time I see you like this, I'm sure I'll be scared. Someone will pass by in a while, so I'll ask. Seeing that Xius's expression was very sad, Nakorulu hurriedly stepped forward like a little adult, patted Xius on the back gently, and said comfortingly.

"Good. Xiu Si nodded helplessly, the first time he went out, the first time he talked to ordinary people in the outside world, he made the other party scared like this, he really didn't expect it.

Wuqi continued to knock on the wooden door, while Nakorulu and Xius stood quietly behind him, while accompanying Wuqi while they kept scanning both sides of the road, looking forward to the early arrival of the next passerby.

It didn't take long, and it didn't make the two of them wait too long. About half an hour later, a second passer-by came, this was a woman dressed in ordinary clothes, about 1.6 meters tall, but her waist was as thick as a big bucket, and the flesh on her face was so much that she squeezed her two already small eyes almost into two thin slits.

"Hello this aunt!" Na Ke Lulu saw the arrival, she smiled and came forward to talk, who knew that just after saying hello, before she could speak, she was robbed by the aunt and asked: "You are selling pets?" Oh, I think your little yellow cat is so cute. How much did it cost? I bought it. ”

Nakolulu shook her head with a wry smile, and said sincerely: "Auntie, we are not selling pets, we want to ask you something." ”

"It turned out to be an inquiry. Then don't ask, I don't know anything. See you again. The woman was decisive enough to turn around and leave as soon as she heard that the other party's purpose was not her own, ignoring Nakorulu's retention.

Seeing that the woman finally disappeared into the end of the path and disappeared from everyone's field of vision, Xius suddenly glanced at it, and Nakolulu shook her head lightly and teased, "It seems that you can't do it either." ”

Nakorulu glared at Xius angrily, but then her face suddenly became helpless. However, she and Hughes did not give up because of this, and for more than two hours, they were like outsiders who had just entered the city from the countryside, and they took the trouble to ask as soon as they caught a passerby.

But the final result was not satisfactory, those passers-by either didn't know anything about Visha's home, or they hadn't even heard of Visha, the pharmacist, even if someone would pass by here every day, but no one would have thought that such an old, almost obsolete house would still be inhabited.

Such an answer was completely unexpected. After he knocked for more than two hours and no one opened the door, Wuqi finally slammed the door open, and he made a rare reckless effort to break in. But it's okay not to knock the door open, but when it hits, everyone can't help but be stunned.

In addition to the air and air in the house, there was still a trace of human habitation, the stove, toiletries, sleeping quilts, and Visha's favorite alchemy jar were all gone. They swept around the room several times, but found nothing but cobwebs and thick dust. ,

As a result, the most disappointed person is Wuqi himself. He didn't understand why Grandma Visha had moved away so suddenly, could she have offended someone in Sword Saint City, but even then it should be okay. Grandma Visha is an important person who has a relationship with the Sword Academy, even if she has an enemy, as long as she goes to the freshman teacher of the Sword Academy to help Sakai, can't she solve it?

Could it be that Grandma Visha's enemy is a super strong person who is even more powerful than Sakai? Teacher Sakai is already a master-level powerhouse, and Grandma Visha can't be regarded as a real cultivator strictly speaking, so how can she offend an enemy who is even more powerful than Teacher Sakai?

This is clearly illogical. But no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't get a logical clue, so he had to go back to Sword Saint City with everyone to deal with it for a while. When he thinks of other ways tomorrow, he will choose to go to the Sword Academy to find Teacher Sakai to take him into the imperial city of Sword Saint City as a last resort.

Otherwise, Wu Qi didn't plan to go to the Sword Academy first, because Chloyd was there. With his understanding of Chloyd, the other party would stubbornly try to keep him on his own, but the unwillingness in his eyes when he unexpectedly lost to himself is still unforgettable.

So he was sure that if he met Chloyd first, then he would never be able to convince the other party to wait until he had done the big thing before fighting the other party. If it's just a war, it's fine, but the other party can't easily agree to him, and if he really says so, it will only make Chloyd think that he doesn't want to fulfill the agreement, which will inevitably cause misunderstanding.

Chloyd is the first friend Wuqi has met since he was born, and he values this hard-won friendship, so he is not willing to add to the misunderstanding between the two. That's why he chose to come to his place of residence to ask Grandma Visha, but who knew that the other party was not there.

Where the hell did Grandma Visha go?

Wuqi thought to himself in confusion as he walked towards the city of Sword Saint City with Nakolulu, Xius and others. When I arrived at the city gate, there was a night breeze, which was autumn, and the late night evening breeze was already a little cool on my face.

Wuqi and Na Ke Lulu, who were wearing two clothes, couldn't help but shiver involuntarily, and Wuqi couldn't help but sneeze like thunder, but Xiusi, who was thinly dressed and only wore a green shirt, didn't feel cold at all, and he even glanced at his two chief and deputy heads in surprise, and said, "You two are so strong." I'm still going to catch a cold!"

Nakorulu didn't explain, she glared at Theseus angrily and turned away from him. It seems that he disdains to answer Husti's question.

Wuqi didn't care, he just slowly took out a tissue to wipe the snot off his face, and explained with a wry smile: "Brother Xiusi." My body has never been better. I have been catching a cold all the time, sometimes it is heavier, sometimes it is lighter. Otherwise, how could she call me a slug?"

Speaking of this, Wuqi glanced at Na Ke Lulu, and when Na Ke Lulu saw Wu Qi's face that was more ugly than bitter melon, she immediately covered her mouth and smiled, and said, "Nonsense." Even if you don't catch a cold, you still have a runny nose, who made you so obscene. If you don't learn at a young age, you learn the obscene side of those adults. ”

Wu Qi was helpless, he couldn't say Na Ke Lulu, so he had to smile bitterly again and shake his head, and continued to explain to Xius: "As for the head of the group, Lulu. It's easier to explain that she's going to catch a cold. Because she is a magician, magic is mainly cultivated in the spiritual aspect, and there is no strengthening of the body. So it's normal for her to catch a cold or catch a cold. ”

"I see. Xiusi nodded suddenly, but then his eyes suddenly froze, and his figure quickly jumped behind Wuqi, and with a sharp grasp of his right hand, a painful scream immediately sounded in everyone's ears, "Oops!".

"Who?" Almost at the same time as hearing this voice, Wuqi, Na Ke Lulu, and Xiao Bai, who had been lying on Wuqi's shoulder, all immediately turned their eyes to Wuqi's back.

Everyone's eyes swept away, only to see that a fat little hand suddenly appeared in the air less than half a meter behind Wuqi, with five fingers slightly open, and the palm was facing Wuqi's back, but the wrist was firmly grasped by a dark green hand, like an iron tong, unable to move a bit.

Everyone looked at the owner of the little hand, and suddenly, a little fat man with an ordinary appearance, a fat face, but a blond hair came into view, but the clothes that the other party was wearing at this time were completely different from the residents that Wuqi and the others had seen in the city during the day, and it turned out to be a set of gray armor. ,

The little fat man also had a gray long sword pinned to his waist, and under the illumination of the moonlight, there was a faint gray light flashing on the scabbard, which was very unusual.

The person who screamed was the little fat man, but his age was immediately apparent as a teenager, not much older than Wuqi and Nakolulu. But everyone didn't dare to be careless, almost after discovering the little fat man, Wu Qi, Na Ke Lulu and Xiu Si immediately diffused the breath in their bodies to feel the strength of the other party.

It wasn't until it was confirmed that the little fat man's strength had only reached about the fourth or fifth level of a junior cultivator that the three of them breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts at the same time. Xiusi glanced at the little fat man coldly, and asked in a deep voice, "What did you want to do just now?"

Xiusi's words were very ordinary, but while he spoke, he turned his breath into an invisible pressure like a mountain that pressed on the little fat man's heart, and the little fat man suddenly felt that Xiusi's question was like a muffled thunder that had been entrenched in the dark clouds for a long time, and the rumbling rang non-stop, almost breaking his eardrums.

However, the little fat man was also a cultivator, so he gritted his teeth and survived. But when the pressure in his heart suddenly disappeared, he was suddenly startled by the terrifying aura that Xius had just said at the same time, and he didn't dare to look at Xiusi's aggressive gaze anymore, and turned to look at Wuqi.

didn't rush to speak, but lowered his head again and pondered for a long time, then asked with some uncertainty: "Are you Wuqi?"

"Yes. Do you know me?" Wuqi was suddenly stunned, he didn't expect the person in front of him to know him, but after being stunned, he nodded slowly and asked.

When the little fat man saw Wuqi nodding, his face suddenly became happy, and he pointed to himself happily and hurriedly said, "Don't you remember me?" I'm the same chubby guy who went through the Necro Bear King with you! Have you forgotten? You saved me at the time. ”

"Necromantic Bear King?" Wuqi tried to remember, the first time he didn't remember who the person in front of him was, but after thinking carefully for the second time, he finally remembered who the person in front of him was.

It turned out that he was just one of the surviving classmates who watched the battle from a distance when he was fighting against the Necromantic Bear King, which was very inconspicuous. However, Wuqi clearly remembered that the little fat man in his memory and the person in front of him were indeed very similar in appearance. Except for being a little taller, there is almost no difference.

"It's you. I remember, Chubby. Later, he skipped class with me, and unfortunately was caught by Mr. Sakai and punished with push-ups, right?" Wuqi said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, yes. That's me. Chubby smiled and nodded.

When I met an old classmate who hadn't seen me for a long time, the strange conversation box was also opened in an instant. The next hour or so was the time for the two to talk nonsense, and most of the content of the conversation had nothing to do with the purpose of everyone's trip, and was pure nonsense. However, Wuqi was not completely without gain, at least the purpose of his going to the Imperial City tomorrow had been successfully resolved.

Xiao Fat, who is now one of the gatekeepers of the Imperial City, can be qualified for the task of taking himself into the Imperial City. After chatting for about half an hour, Wu Qi shifted the content of the conversation to a place he cared about very much.

So, he suddenly changed the conversation and asked seriously: "By the way, Chubby." I would like to ask you, do you know where the owner of the house where I used to live has gone? I went with my friend just now and found that no one had lived in the house for a long time. Do you know the whereabouts of the master in the road?"

It was just a momentary curiosity, and he didn't care about anything at all. If Chubby told him that Grandma Visha had moved somewhere else, he would just accept it in peace. I don't have the idea of looking for the other party again, I will ask this question, and I am just worried because I haven't seen anyone during the day.

Who knows, Wuqi's casual question made the little fat man's face change suddenly, as if he suddenly remembered some extremely sad past, and his sadness was beyond words. After being silent for more than half a minute, Chubby sighed lightly and said, "She's dead." ”
