Chapter Seventy-One: Edgeworth's Success
Listening to what Liao Shui said simply, Chai Shien's face was flushed, and he still didn't have the courage to admit that he couldn't do it at all. He took off the sea-breaking sword at his waist, and threw it into the air without any hope, and the sound of the sword falling to the ground had already sounded in his heart. He closed his eyes, not daring to look at the scene after the defeat.
The predictable sound of landing did not sound for a long time, but a few startled inhalations, which made Chai Shien feel strange and opened his eyes slightly. I saw Pohai stop steadily in mid-air, and the rest of the people looked at him with an incredible look, very surprised.
"Okay, Senior Brother Chai, I'll just say, you're not an ordinary person!" Ge Kunfeng was surprised, but also a little more excited, he was really happy for Chai Shien.
"Senior Brother Chai, ...... you" Xi Jun looked at Chai Shien's gaze became extremely complex and profound, and the rest was never spoken.
"You kid, how many secrets are still hidden?" Liao Shui slapped Chai Shien on the shoulder, "It's okay now, you don't need me to take you with you." You don't know how much spiritual power you're going to consume with me!"
"Senior Brother Chai, congratulations!" Yun Song has always cherished words like gold, and if he can say these words, the errand Shien has been very grateful.
The five of them departed, leaving a dazzling color on the black curtain of the night sky. For the first time, Chai Shien was alone with Edgeworth, and he was both worried and excited. The sound of the wind whistling in his ears made him hardly hear any other sounds, and even Liao Shui's chattering voice didn't hear much clearly.
At this moment, the whole earth is under his feet, as if one behemoth after another stands quietly, dotted with little light, hazy, illuminating some unnoticed corners. Chai Shien suddenly thought of his father and mother who were far away in Xiao'anzhuang, did they ever think that their son would one day soar above the sky, coming and going as freely as a fairy?
About half an hour later, Yun Song at the front slowed down and looked at the town store faintly appearing below suspiciously. Chai Shien's heart moved, and Pohai seemed to sense his mind, and slowly stopped.
"Senior Brother Yun, are we here?" Sailor Liao set up a pergola and looked down, feeling strange in his heart. There was a town of five or six hundred households, and even though it was late at night, there should not be no lights at all, and there was a dead silence, as if there were no people.
"That's right, this is Beiqing Town. Yun Song said, "You see, there seems to be a layer of fog shrouded in this town, and this fog is not like an ordinary fog, but like a miasma unique to the southwest Shu region. ”
There are many miasma in the southwest of Shu, and the miasma is the turbidity of the mountains and forests, which occurs in late spring and converges in late autumn. But this is the north, and there shouldn't be such a thing. Yun Song found a safe place to fall, put away the Frost Cloud Sword, and told them to wait again, and go to check it himself.
"No," Ge Kunfeng said, "Senior Brother Yun, it's too dangerous for you to go alone, so let me go with you." Yun Song said, "You haven't recovered yet, so let's stay and take care of the two junior sisters." Chai Shien hurriedly said, "Then I will accompany my senior brother, and if there is anything wrong, I can take care of it." ”
Chai Shien was just a new disciple, and he was the weakest of the five. Even Xi Jun and Liao Shui are more suitable than him. Yun Song declined, "Senior Brother Chai doesn't have to worry, I can handle it alone." ”
"Senior Brother is not worried about me?" Chai Shien was anxious to show himself, and without waiting for Yun Song to object again, he walked over and pulled him up directly, "Senior Brother Yun, don't worry, I will definitely not cause you trouble." And the senior brother has not been down the mountain for many years, and he doesn't know much about those customs and customs. Besides, there's no one here who knows more about this than me, right?"
I have to admit that what Chai Shien said is the truth. Yun Song thought about it for a while, then nodded in agreement. He made a pact with a few men that whatever he found within half an hour would come back to join them. If there is an accident, leave a secret note to inform them.
After doing all this, Yun Song and Chai Shien walked towards the town in the miasma.
"Chai Shien, cover your mouth and nose with a handkerchief, and tie the mouth and trouser hem tightly to prevent miasma from invading your body. Yun Song carefully instructed Chai Shien, and lit a strangely shaped, but very bright torch, to lead the way in front.
After walking for a while, the two of them were already standing on the streets of Beiqing Town. The miasma here is getting thicker and thicker, and at a distance of an arm's length, it is no longer possible to see the other party's face clearly. They had to walk into the shops to see it.
More than a dozen shops in a row, all of them were on the door panels, and Chai Shien put his ears on the door panels, and there was no movement inside. He wondered, "Even if it closes at night, there will be one or two guys left in the average shop." Why is there no sound at all, could it be that the business of these shops is not good, and the shopkeeper is gone?"
Yun Song looked at the banners hanging in front of the door, some were shabby, and some were brand new. This shows that it was not long ago that someone replaced it, and it will not be left unmanaged.
"Let's go ahead and have a look. Yun Song walked in the miasma with a torch, only to feel that his body was cold, and there seemed to be a pair of eyes staring at them behind those closed door panels. The more Chai Shien walked, the more he felt mad, and he hugged his shoulders and said to Yun Song, "Senior Brother Yun, why don't we knock on the door and ask if there is an inn or something here." You and I are men, forget it, the two senior sisters are Jin nobles, we must find a place to live first, right?"
"It's okay!" Yun Song saw that there was an inn in front of him, so he walked over and knocked lightly on the door panel, listening to that there was no movement inside, and knocked twice in a row. After a long time, a glimmer of oil lamp came through the door, but no one spoke, only the sound of Suosuo's footsteps.
"Little second brother, we came from afar and want two rooms to stay. Chai Shien didn't wait for Yun Song to make any more moves, and said.
"You, where did you come from?"
Listening to the voice inside, the other party seemed to be very scared, which made Yun Song and Chai Shien a little confused. If you open an inn, there will be guests coming to your door from morning to night, as a guy at the inn, you should have been accustomed to it a long time ago, how to listen to him, as if to interrogate them, before letting them in.
"We're from Baozhou City!" Chai Shien said nonsense, and Yun Song couldn't stop him if he wanted to. The guy asked again, "Then what are you doing in Beiqing Town?" Chai Shien had no choice but to continue to make it up, "We are here to join our relatives, but we have arrived here at this time, so we have to find a place to live first, and then go to our relatives tomorrow." Little second brother, don't worry, we are not bad people, we are here to give you silver, open the door quickly!"
