Chapter 17: Reunion on the Same Path
The voice was a little louder, but he couldn't shake the sleeping Peng Yubo, Peng Huai saw that Peng Yubo had no sign of waking up, so he was even more angry, and immediately slapped a palm on the table, this palm slapped extremely hard, fortunately, Peng Huai did not get carried away and use his internal qi, otherwise the table of the eight immortals would definitely be in pieces.
Peng Yubo woke up immediately, straightened his waist and said with trembling eyes: "Who prevented Young Master Ben from sleeping?"
Everyone at the table did not move, Peng Yubo looked around, only to see that everyone was silent, and when he glanced at Peng Yushan, he saw that her eyes turned to Peng Huai, who was facing the door of the hall, and then looked at Peng Huai, only to see that his face was pale, and there was no blood, Peng Yubo immediately realized.
I had to pretend to be smiling: "Daddy is here, hurry up and eat." ”
I saw that Peng Huai didn't move his chopsticks, but said coldly: "Go back to the house, breakfast is free." ”
Peng Yubo was very different, thinking that he was just lying on the table and sleeping for a while, and there was no big mistake, why didn't he let himself eat, he was waiting to argue, but he saw Peng Huai's eyes as deep as a sword, and his eyes were staring at him, Peng Yubo had never seen Peng Huai with such a look, and just about to say the words again and again, he swallowed back into his stomach, so he had to stand up and move the chair out of the door.
Mrs. Peng wanted to complain, but when she saw that Peng Huai was starting, she didn't say anything, and several people continued to eat for themselves, and Zheng Kai and Ye Qiu also sat in the hall to eat, and most of the wounds on Zheng Kai's body had healed in the past two days.
It is only because Peng Yulan has visited famous doctors for Peng Yushan, and she is also quite proficient in pharmacy, and now she is good at pharmacology, so the prescription prescribed is very effective, and the pharmacy in the town has a complete range of medicines, and Zheng Kai's trauma heals so quickly.
However, Ye Qiu still served porridge and vegetables for Zheng Kai, and even had to feed Yu Zheng Kai, Zheng Kai took into account the feelings of others, and felt that Yu Li was incompatible, so he calmly refused, scooped up the porridge and swallowed it into his stomach.
After eating, everyone walked out of the side hall in turn, and the shopkeeper went upstairs to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, Zheng Kai wanted to travel today, but Ye Qiu was unwilling, and bluntly said that he needed to rest for another day, and Peng Yushan and Peng Yulan also echoed together.
Zheng Kai walked into the door, the four of them followed, closed the door, sat on the wooden chair at the table, Xu Qing said: "Senior brother, Senior Sister Ye, yesterday I met Lu Yunxiang with Miss Yushan and Yulan, let's rest for another day, and set off with them tomorrow." ”
Zheng Ye and the two glanced at each other, and Ye Qiu said, "Lord Lu Guan should have already gone back, how could he meet you by chance?"
Zheng Kai also had this intention, Xu Qing replied: "I don't know the specifics, maybe we are driving slowly, they are following us, and it is unknown if they happened to catch up." Zheng Kai said: "There is such a clever thing in the world, why didn't Yun Xiang come to the hall to talk about it?" Xu Qing said: "Lord Lu Guan said that she had to inform Senior Sister Lin and the others, and she didn't appear again, and I don't know where they will be now?" Zheng Kai said: "Then Lord Lu Guan knows that we are at the Shangshu Inn?" Peng Yulan said: "We have already told her the address of the inn, and she can find us at any time." Ye Qiu said: "If this is the case, then why didn't they come for a long time, could it be that they left the town first?" Zheng Kai said: "That's not it, how can they abandon us and leave after they have already met, maybe they will be here today." ”
In the Tongyuan Inn, which is more than ten miles away from Shangshu Inn, Lu Yunxiang got up and returned late last night, but he couldn't sleep peacefully for a long time.
Tossing and turning, until the early morning of the erection day, her eyebrows were dark, she tied her hair a little and combed her hair a little, and when she opened the door, she saw Lin Xu.
Lin Xu saw that Lu Yunxiang was not in good spirits, and walked into her room, Lu Yunxiang returned to the house, the two sat on the chair and had a long talk, Lin Xu said: "Where did you go last night, why are your eyes so red?" Lu Yunxiang said: "It's okay, I was late in the investigation last night." Lin Xu said: "How's the investigation? When can we meet with Senior Brother Xu and go to Yudi Mountain together?" Lu Yunxiang said: "I still don't want to inform Senior Brother Xu and others of the death of the gang leader for the time being, it will be in vain, it is better to let the two female apprentices escort the gang leader back first, how about you and I go to meet Senior Brother Xu?" Lin Xu said: "The gang leader is without you and my care, will there be anything wrong?" Lu Yunxiang said: " Now that we are out of the shallow water realm, no one will covet us, and besides, the gang leader has been dead for many days, and the night before was hit by heavy rain, if we don't escort the gang back in time, I am afraid that the body will be damaged. ”
Lin Xu nodded and said, "What you said is reasonable, I will ask the waiter to hire another sedan chair later, and the three of them will transport the helper back first, and the two of us will go to meet Senior Brother Xu." ”
The two agreed, walked out of the house, ordered the shopkeeper to prepare breakfast, and called the Zhuang waiter and the two female apprentices to enter Lu Yunxiang's house to discuss, and Lin Xu informed the three of them of the result agreed with Lu Yunxiang.
The three of them thought for a while, and had no objections, waiting for the shopkeeper to bring porridge and food, the five of them hurriedly had breakfast, the waiter and the two female apprentices went to the town to buy a sedan car, Lu Yunxiang and Lin Xu went out of the inn to Shangshu Inn.
Although the flow of people on the street is not as congested as Jinling, the northern capital, it is also noisy, and the flowing clouds and rivers seem to have the flavor of Jiangnan.
The two walked on the street, talking and laughing, Lu Yunxiang really sensed that there was a dark nightmare around him, but he just smiled slightly and didn't care about him.
Lin Xu suddenly said: "Sister Yunxiang, we haven't walked on the street so leisurely for a long time, the last time was in Yudi Town, you walked into three pigeon shops, and then you chose your favorite carrier pigeon, which took most of the time, and then we listened to the play and drank tea and bought clothes, if you hadn't delayed for a long time, we could have played a little longer." Lu Yunxiang said with a smile: "This was a few months ago, do you remember it so clearly, that is, after that night, you didn't notice that you and my mountain comfort had turned into uneasy movement?"
Lin Xu sighed: "Time flies, I have experienced too much in the past few months, I am really a little tired, I want to return to the jade flute like this and never come out again." Lu Yunxiang said: "You talk like this, but you have personally experienced the day when the helper died, you must have been deeply touched, how can you easily let go of the obsession in your heart?" Lin Xu said: "Yes, the helper told me before he died, so that I should not be bent on revenge for her, and I must put the livelihood of the Jade Flute Gang first." Lu Yunxiang said: "The helper is right, at the moment, Selin is eyeing the tiger, and he has already annexed the Taihu Lake in the Void Realm, and the next sect to be attacked does not know who the flowers will be, so we must not relax our vigilance, everything must still focus on the overall situation."
However, the revenge of the gang leader must be avenged, and I, Lu Yunxiang, will definitely capture that Changyao to the gang leader's grave in this life, make her kneel down to apologize, and then take his life to pay tribute to the gang leader's soul in the sky. ”
Lin Xu said: "Yunxiang, do you mean to personally return to the Taihu Lake Realm to avenge the gang leader after he enters the soil?
Lu Yunxiang smiled and said: "You stupid sister, if the Selin Army really wants to covet my jade flute, then how can Changyao follow the army? ”
After saying this, Lu Yunxiang remembered that Peng Yulan wanted to follow Xiao Song's intention to take Xu Qing to Taihu Xujing Mountain, which was enough to show that Xu Qing was very related to this expedition in the rivers and lakes, and he had too little information, and Lu Yunxiang couldn't make a conclusion for a while.
Lin Xu replied: "Yes, that Changyao is a person from the imperial court will never let go of the opportunity to attack the jade flute, and he must be made to look good at that time." ”
Seeing that Lu Yunxiang was thoughtful, he said, "Yunxiang, what are you thinking?" Lu Yunxiang said: "It's nothing, let's go quickly." ”
The two walked through the streets and alleys, and finally came to the front of the Shangshu Inn, and when they stepped inside, the shopkeeper hurriedly came over and greeted them with a smile: "Does the guest officer want to eat or stay in the hotel?" Lin Xu said: "No, we have to find someone." The shopkeeper said: "Who are the guest officers looking for?" Lu Yunxiang said: "I've been here, I don't need you to lead the way, let's go up by ourselves." ”
The shopkeeper thought to himself when this girl had been here, and was thinking about it in his mind, but when he saw that the two of them had already walked to the wooden steps and walked upstairs, the shopkeeper was slightly surprised, so he didn't care anymore.
The two walked upstairs and walked to the front of Xu Qing's room, Lin Xu stretched out his hand and knocked on the door, but there was no response for a while, so after knocking a few more times, Lu Yunxiang said: "Senior Brother Xu should not be there, let's go to the other room." ”
The two walked a few more steps, came to Zheng Kai's house, and suddenly heard a voice coming from the house, and listened carefully to know that there were Xu Qing and Zheng Kai and several girls' voices, Lin Xuxi knocked on the door with his jade hand.
The few people in the room were Xu Qing, Peng Yulan and others, and the five of them were talking about Lu Yunxiang and Xu Qingyushan Yulan's chance encounter, when they suddenly heard a knock on the door.
Xu Qing walked to the door to open the door, but saw Lu Yunxiang and Lin Xu standing outside the door, and was shocked and hurriedly welcomed the two into the house.
When Peng Yulan saw Lu Yunxiang and Lin Xu, her mind was full of thoughts, a little restrained, and she saluted with Peng Yushan, Lu Yunxiang hurriedly returned the salute and bowed, the two sat on the wooden chair at the table, because the seats were limited, Xu Qing stood aside and paced, Ye Qiuxi said: "I didn't think that it was a big coincidence to meet Lord Lu Guan and Senior Sister Lin in this town, but aren't you two in the Void Mountain?
Lu Yunxiang and Lin Xu glanced at each other, knowing that sooner or later they would have to be informed of this matter, Lin Xu sighed and replied: " Senior Sister Ye, since you went to the Peng Mansion to protect the Peng family's five families, I waited all the way to the Taihu Lake Realm, thinking that I could temporarily avoid the pursuit of Beiting Serin, and take a breath to make future plans, but when I got there, I knew that the Xujing Mountain had also fallen like shallow water, and the entire Taihu Lake faction was almost wiped out, except for a few Taihu disciples who were with me, and only one person remained in the mountain, that person was Changyao, in short, the Taihu disciples were slaughtered to the end. ”
After talking about these people, everyone was shocked, Xu Qing secretly realized, thinking why Peng Yulan wanted to go to Xujing Mountain to meet Xiao Song, the northern capital of Anguo, it turned out that Xujing Mountain was already the territory of the imperial court at this time, so Xiao Song called himself at this time, what is the reason, if he is really the prince of the previous dynasty, at this time they should kill themselves, and let Peng Yulan kill themselves on the spot, why bother to persuade himself to go, is it not that Peng Yulan is afraid of the dark night of Peng Huai's leadership, and does not dare to say the truth.
Isn't it in danger that he and Peng Yulan get along day and night, Xu Qing was distracted for a while, and couldn't help but glance at Peng Yulan, wanting to see what she was doing when she learned about this and reacting, but Peng Yulan's face was not faint, as if she was in control of all this, and Peng Yushan, Ye Qiu and Zheng Kai were all surprised.
Ye Qiu hurriedly said: "If the Void Realm Mountain is occupied by the Cylin Army, then where should the master and the leader go?" Zheng Kai said: "The leader is the head of the Taihu faction, how can he sit idly by when he learns that his own sect has been invaded, and he will inevitably lead the disciples to kill back, but after a hundred years, how can the Taihu faction be destroyed so easily?" Lin Xu said: " The Taihu faction has a solid foundation, and it will not be easily defeated, all of this is a long story, at that time, the head of the sect rushed back to the door, but there was no trace of Sergeant Sergeant Selin in the door, only a disciple named Changyao of the Changshengju remained, and this disciple was the imperial court eagle dog that had been lurking in Taihu Lake for many years. ”
