Chapter 158: Human favors are such a thing, there will always be a feeling that they can't be repaid
"Hmm. โ
In the room, Xiao Muqiu took the chopsticks in his hand, maintained a slightly stiff smile on his face, looked at the two people who looked embarrassed outside the window, hesitated, and asked out loud.
"Brother Li, Daoist Xiaqing, I don't know why you two are here?"
As he spoke, he saw a third person jump in front of the window, and the person who came was naturally a lately sorbetted tiger girl.
The smile on Xiao Muqiu's face was even more helpless.
It seems that next time he wants to have a peaceful dinner, he will have to close the window as well.
ยทยทยทยทยทยท
The lights in the room were yellow, and three pairs of chopsticks were added to the table.
Because considering that the three of them dared to come overnight and might not have eaten anything, Xiao Muqiu asked the people below to prepare a few more side dishes to serve up.
At the table, Li Si and Shuhu Nu were able to let go and directly moved their chopsticks, they were indeed hungry.
The confused Taoist stared at Xiao Muqiu with wide eyes, and he was thinking about how to say the purpose of this trip.
After all, he and Xiao Muqiu are not very familiar, and tonight is a sudden meeting, no matter how thick-skinned he is, he will inevitably feel a little embarrassed.
Xiao Muqiu, perhaps seeing his situation, chuckled, looked at Li Si who was sitting on the side and asked.
"Brother Li, why don't you stay in the Valley of Hundred Flowers, what are you doing here?"
Li Si glanced at Xiao Muqiu, smiled helplessly and said.
"Naturally, it's because there's trouble. โ
Xiao Muqiu was not surprised by Li Si's answer, because if Li Si didn't come with trouble, that was the thing that needed to be surprised.
He wanted to know what trouble Li Si had brought this time.
But then, he thought about it again, as if he remembered something, and looked back at the confused Taoist sitting on the side, his eyes flickered, and his heart seemed to have some understanding.
"Let me guess. Xiao Muqiu opened the folding fan in his hand and shook it slowly, the smile on his face faded a little, and he said in a slightly deep tone.
"Is this related to the Demon Sect?"
Li Si and the confused Taoist glanced at each other, and then nodded again.
"It's exactly as Lord Xiao said. The confused Taoist sighed and explained the reason for this: "Poor Dao went down the mountain this time because he was ordered by his master to find out about this matter. โ
"So, I know. Xiao Muqiu was silent for a moment, stopped the fan in his hand and said.
"I also received news just a month ago that I saw the Demon Sect in Chang'an again. However, since this demon sect has disappeared for many years, why did it suddenly appear on the rivers and lakes at this time?"
Regarding Xiao Muqiu's question, Li Si and the Confused Daoist both pondered slightly, this is indeed a place worth paying attention to.
At this time, the Shuhu Girl, who had been sitting on the side and bowing her head to eat, suddenly said.
"Either they've got the power to the point where they don't have to hide anymore, or they have something they have to do. For example, if they find or lose something, this thing is extremely important, even at the risk of being found by you, they have to find it, so they show up in such a hurry and walk around the rivers and lakes. โ
As she spoke, she stuffed another piece of roast meat into her mouth, took a mouthful of rice, and swallowed it with her mouth puffed.
She doesn't talk much on weekdays, but that doesn't mean she doesn't understand anything, on the contrary, she knows a lot, it's just that she doesn't talk much.
But speaking of which, this roast meat tastes really good.
Most of the food in Baihua Valley is light, and she has not eaten such heavy meat for a long time.
Glancing up and down at the Tiger Girl, Xiao Muqiu raised his eyebrows and smiled, nodded and said.
"Indeed, the appearance of the Demon Sect now is indeed as if they are looking for something. They have a lot of hands in various places, and they put eyeliner everywhere. Although it is hidden, it is difficult to completely hide the trace as before. According to the Tiger Girl, they had a reason to do so. However, other possibilities cannot be ruled out entirely. โ
"Anyway, I've sent some spies to continue to track down their intentions, and I think the results will come soon. By the way, if you want to know Jiang Shengming's whereabouts, he is on his way to Qinghe County at this time. โ
After that, Xiao Muqiu also picked up his own dishes and chopsticks and ate his meal.
Ever since he heard the news of the Demon Cult's reappearance, he had already made a lot of arrangements. Although the Demon Sect is no longer as hand-eyed as it used to be, it must not be careless. After all, he had experienced some of the things back then.
Such a means that can make people die willingly for it is really terrifying.
While he was eating, suddenly, Xiao Muqiu saw that the confused Taoist was looking at him with a strange look, so he asked with a puzzled smile.
"Daoist Xiaqing, what are you looking at me like this?"
"Uh. The confused Daoist grabbed his hair: "Poor Dao is just thinking, how much do you want to sell us for this news?"
In fact, he was just not sure if he had enough money, so he wanted to ask if he could take credit.
"The money is enough. Xiao Muqiu laughed, picked up a mouthful of food and put it in his mouth and said.
"The bento is a favor for me to give you a good time in Wudang Mountain. โ
After saying this, the confused Taoist looked at Xiao Muqiu's eyes and became a little more strange.
"What's the matter, Dao Chief?" Xiao Muqiu sighed helplessly.
He was really hungry now, and he just wanted to have a good meal, but this person kept staring at him, and he couldn't feel comfortable.
"It's nothing, it's just a little confusing. The confused Taoist really began to be confused again, shook his head in confusion and said.
"I didn't expect that a businessman like Xiao Lou would also say favors. โ
"What, do you still want me to take your money?" Xiao Muqiu asked funny.
You must know that the news he gave in person will definitely not be low when it is sold in the rivers and lakes.
He didn't think that the two people in front of him would carry so much money when they went out. Especially Li Si, this guy doesn't even have a tael of silver in his arms now, so he simply doesn't accept it.
I didn't expect that this would make the confused Taoist strange.
"Not really. The confused Taoist hurriedly waved his hand, smiled and said.
"Alas, the poor road is not confused, that is, let's eat, eat. โ
Seeing that the confused Taoist diverted the topic, Xiao Muqiu did not continue to delve into it, and smiled and lowered his head to eat.
However, the words of the Taoist made him a little concerned.
When did he start talking about this kind of thing?
Thinking about it, he glanced at Li Si on the side.
Maybe he brought it, Xiao Muqiu thought.
After all, the first favor he owes is owed to this person.
