Chapter 152: A Weak Scholar
The inn was full of the remains of tables, chairs and benches, and Li Moru and Mo Xuan'er were ready to leave after eating, Li Moru called: "Man, come and settle the bill." ”
The man and the shopkeeper glanced at each other, and the shopkeeper motioned to him with his eyes: "Hurry up, call you." ”
The guy glanced at the shopkeeper and muttered in a low voice, "Didn't you say you wouldn't take money?"
"But if you can say don't want the silver sent to the door? Even if he is a fierce god, as long as he gives the silver, we will take it. ”
The man glared, "You said it lightly, you like silver so much." ”
"Isn't that what you call you, if you call me, I'll go." ”
The guy gave him a blank look, and at this time, Li Moru's voice came again, and the moment the guy turned around, he was kicked out by the shopkeeper, he almost stumbled and fell, and he had no choice but to pick it up if he had no choice but to come out.
He walked up to Li Moru and whispered, "Guest officer, I promise a tael of silver." ”
After Li Moru took out a piece of loose silver from his arms and gave it to him, he said to Mo Xuan'er: "Let's go, Xuan'er, where do you want to go now?"
Mo Xuan'er said: "Where are we going to the Xianmen Conference, where will we stay tonight, by the way, let's wait for the Xianmen Conference to start, how about it, do you want to go and see the Xianmen Conference?"
Li Moru nodded, "Of course I do." ”
After the two left the hotel, the guy was looking at the silver in his hand, and the shopkeeper hurriedly walked over and snatched it away, "Xiao Yi, well done, I'll give you a raise." ”
"Shopkeeper, let's not say two taels of silver here, shouldn't the extra one or two be counted as my reward?"
"Xiao Yi, you spend a lot of money, or will I leave it for you, and wait for the future, how about telling you about family affairs?"
The guy said: "You just cut it to death, you said that you have no children, no daughters, and no wife, why do you want so much money, save it as a coffin book?"
The shopkeeper put the money in his sleeve pocket and said, "You know a fart, Lao Tzu is taking precautions, and if you marry a daughter-in-law in the future, you must not ask for a wife?"
"So you're squeezing my wages, aren't you?"
"Xiao Yi, who is with whom of our grandfathers, don't worry, even if I marry my daughter-in-law, I won't forget you. ”
The man gave him a blank look, "you, I believe in your evil." With that, he continued to clean up the inn, sighing as he cleaned up.
Li Moru was looking for the restaurant that day under the guidance of Mo Xuan'er, the shopkeeper in the restaurant was packing up his things, and when he saw the two of them coming, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, and the shopkeeper said: "Two, what is the so-called thing to come here today?"
Mo Xuan'er asked, "Is the immortal gate open?"
The shopkeeper bowed and said, "The fairy gate is wide open, please come." ”
Mo Xuan'er took out the token, and the old man said with a smile: "Holy aunt, please." ”
The shopkeeper took the two of them to find a wide road along the backyard, and said to the two: "Holy Aunt, this is the way to the Xianmen Conference, and now the roads leading to the Xianmen Conference have begun to be received, and I am about to close here." ”
"Okay, you go about your business, I see. ”
The old shopkeeper bowed to Mo Xuan'er, "Holy Aunt walks slowly." ”
Mo Xuan'er took Li Moru to the venue of the Xianmen Conference, she turned to Li Moru and said, "Now that you are Mu Zixu, remember not to show your voice." ”
Li Moru immediately replied in a hoarse voice: "Holy aunt, don't worry, I know what to do." ”
"Let's go, Mr. Mu, let's go have a visit to the Xianmen Conference. ”
Li Moru followed behind Mo Xuan'er, the two of them were unhurried, and they also deliberately pretended to be weak scholars, with their waists slightly bent, holding a sword in one hand and carrying it in front of them with the other.
After the two arrived at the place, Mo Xuan'er took Li Moru to the back room of the main hall, and after arriving at the room, she was ready to start changing clothes, Li Moru hurriedly walked out and stood outside the door.
When Mo Xuan'er came out again, she was wearing a light blue embroidered long skirt, the skirt tassels fluttered with the movement of her body, and the human skin she put on was beautiful, although it was not as good as her original appearance, but in the eyes of ordinary people, she was already a fairy.
Li Moru asked, "Holy Aunt, why did you also put on a human skin?"
Mo Xuan'er smiled: "You don't know this, in the Ten Thousand Immortals Gate, everyone calls me the Thousand-Faced Holy Aunt, except for a few uncles and you, no one knows my original appearance, and now of course I have to change my human skin, so that even the people of the Five Poisons Sect today will not think that the appearance I saw at noon is my original appearance, but only that it is just one of my faces." ”
Li Moru nodded, "Understood." ”
Li Moru followed behind Mo Xuan'er, and the two walked towards the front hall, the last time they came, it was too dark to see clearly, and today Li Moru can see the whole picture of this manor.
At first, he thought it was a big courtyard, but now he found out that it was a manor at all, the two were walking, and suddenly a black shadow flashed by, so fast that Li Moru didn't see it clearly, and the black shadow flashed in front of Mo Xuan'er in an instant.
Li Moru stepped forward half a step forward with a long sword in his hand, making a defensive posture, and Mo Xuan'er shouted, "Uncle Ghost Shadow." ”
Li Moru took back the sword when he heard that it was someone Mo Xuan'er knew, and the person in front of him was dressed in black, wearing a black mask, only his eyes were exposed, and he said: "Xuan'er, you haven't been seen since you came to Jingzhou City, and I haven't heard you look for me, so I came here first, I think you will definitely come here, so I will come to look for you." ”
The ghost glanced at Li Moru beside Mo Xuan'er and asked, "Xuan'er, who is this person next to you, why have you never seen it?"
Li Moru remembered what Mo Xuan'er said to several Hades before, saying that the ghost shadow came over with him to protect her, so now that the ghost shadow appears here, wouldn't it be exposed.
He frowned slightly, and just when he thought he was going to reveal his stuffing, Mo Xuan'er smiled and said, "Uncle Ghost Shadow, come and let me introduce to you, this is the Mu Zixu I often mention to you, Mr. Mu." ”
In fact, Li Moru didn't know that the ghost shadow had always been a loner, especially he didn't like to deal with the people in the Wanxian Sect now, since the Wanxian Sect began to absorb other sects, the ghost shadow became less and less concerned about the affairs of the entire Wanxian Sect.
Except for the occasional time when Mo Xuan'er's father asked him to do something, he would do it, and the rest of the time, he was in retreat on the barren mountain, so after coming here, he had no other person or anything else to do except find Mo Xuan'er.
Li Moru's mind was full of questions, and he often mentioned Mu Zixu to them, and why did the name Mu Zixu always feel familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it for a while.
The ghost smiled and said: "It turns out that this is Mr. Mu Zixu that you often said that you met when you traveled down the mountain, and you really admired it for a long time." ”
A big doubt appeared in Li Moru's mind, the ghost had actually heard the name Mu Zixu, could it be that Mo Xuan'er had already told him this name when he came? But how could Mo Xuan'er be sure that she would definitely come to the Xianmen Conference with him?
Li Moru's mind was full of doubts, and he replied: "Don't dare!"
Ghost Shadow said: "I heard Xuan'er say that when she was down the mountain, there has always been a young and strong martial arts Mr. Mu Zi Xumu who helped her solve a lot of troubles, and she has never had the chance to see her, but I didn't expect to see it today, Mr. Mu is really a young hero, at first we all thought it was a young man in his thirties, but I didn't expect that when I saw him today, he would be twenty-five at most." ”
Another word appeared in Li Moru's mind, a young man in his thirties? How old is this person in front of him?
Li Moru didn't know how to go back for a while, Mo Xuan'er smiled and said: "Uncle Ghost, let's go, let's walk around and see if this year's Xianmen Conference is as good as in previous years." ”
The three of them walked side by side like this, walking towards the front hall, and on the way, the three of them happened to meet King Qin Guang, and the two women beside him were supporting him, and it seemed that he was drunk.
When he saw Mo Xuan'er and Li Moru, because Mo Xuan'er had changed into a human skin, he didn't recognize it, he looked at Li Moru and said, "This little brother, have we met somewhere?"
Li Moru didn't know how to answer for a while, and when Mo Xuan'er was about to go to relieve Li Moru, the ghost stood in front of him and said angrily: "King Qin Guang, you got drunk in broad daylight, have you done what you need to do?"
The ghost's tone was not very good, King Qin Guang looked up, and the wine woke up for three points, "Ghost-ghost, you are here too?"
He hurriedly pulled his hand off the shoulders of the two women, and arched his hand: "Lord Ghost, I haven't seen you for a long time, are you okay lately?"
"Thanks to you, it's okay, but you, King Qin Guang, the sect leader asked you to come to ensure the safety of this Xianmen Conference, you are good, get drunk, is this your attitude towards the sect leader?"
King Qin Guang apologized: "Belonging-subordinates should die, please punish your lord." ”
The ghost said: "Hurry up and wash your face and stare at the point, if I see you drunk again before the end of the Xianmen Conference, when the time comes, I will come and talk to you again." ”
"Yes. ”
King Qin Guang pulled the two women and hurriedly ran away, and after King Qin Guang left, the ghost shadow said angrily: "Now these Yamas, all day long, only know how to fool around, thinking about ending the time agreed with the sect leader early and slipping away, it's useless, I don't know what the sect leader thinks, why are you still keeping them?"
Mo Xuan'er hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Why is Uncle Ghost Shadow so angry, you don't know that the current Wanxianmen is already an internal and external trouble, and at this time, Yama is an indispensable force for the Wanxianmen, and without any of them, it will be a great loss to us." ”
The ghost shadow was helpless, "Alas, I knew that I shouldn't listen to that bastard in the first place, how good it would be to attack all the major sects directly, and directly serve them all, and now there is no such shit." ”
Li Moru listened to the ghost's words, and was really shocked in his heart, listening to the meaning of his words, he felt that Mo Xuan'er's father was a powerful character, and he could destroy the ambition of the various sects in one go, no wonder the old Taoist had been thinking about it, if only Mo Xuan'er's father was younger.
It seems that in the eyes of the old Taoist, Mo Xuan'er's father is the kind of overlord who shocks one side.
Li Moru couldn't help but want to see what kind of person this was.
Mo Xuan'er comforted the ghost not to be too angry, now there are special circumstances, some things have to be dealt with specially, and when the matter here is resolved, she will slowly consider these things.
The three of them walked to the antechamber, and the scene before them was much wider than that night, and it had been cleaned up, and within a distance of nearly a hundred zhang from the hall, there were many tables and chairs, which seemed to be hundreds or even up, and the pool was much larger than that seen that night.
Carp of all colors and pale green lotus leaves covered the water, and now there were many people in the front hall, all sitting and resting in the nearby woods, there were dozens of rooms here, but there was no need to think about it to know that these rooms were not for them.
I saw King Yama and others leading the people of Wanxianmen to handle these things, and not far away, I saw a pair of wine jars piled up as high as a hill, and many women from Magu were rehearsing dance music.
