Chapter 17 Divergent Directions
In the evening, after dusk. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
This is the busiest time of the day in the Dragon Inn, the lobby downstairs, almost every square table is full of guests, and the guys who run the hall are busy sweating profusely, and their voices are a little dumb.
And at this moment, at the door of the inn, another guest came in.
This person has a handsome face, a slender figure, wears a red robe, and exudes a warm and jade-like temperament all over his body, which makes people feel good at first sight.
"Little Er, come up with a pot of good wine. ”
He handed the horse he was carrying to the man at the door, and then stepped in and spoke to the man who was greeting the guests.
The guy who ran the hall had a difficult look on his face and said, "Guest officer, now the downstairs is full." But there's still some room in the upstairs, you see......"
"It's okay, then arrange a quiet place for me......" The man in red smiled faintly, revealing a rather gentle smile.
"Hey...... Okay......"
The running man smiled happily and led the man upstairs.
Upstairs, there are several rooms that are extremely quiet.
There is also a melodious sound of the piano around, and there is a sense of elegance in his life.
The guy who ran the hall walked around with the red-clothed man between the floors, but his face was a little embarrassed again, "Guest officer, I didn't expect that the private room was almost full, and now there is only this Wenyuan Pavilion, and there is still a vacant seat, but the guests in it ......"
Hearing this, the man in red was curious and asked, "What's wrong with the guests inside?"
The guy was embarrassed for a long time, and whispered, "The guest inside...... There is something odd about the temper. ”
"Oh?
"Yes. He sat in it for a long time, but he didn't even order a dish, only a pot of tea. And he didn't allow anyone to disturb him, and if he pushed the door in, he would beat someone. ”
"Oh?"
The curiosity in the eyes of the man in red became stronger and stronger, he looked at the closed door of the private room, and said with a smile: "This is a little interesting, when you go to the inn restaurant just to drink tea, you are not allowed to let others in casually?"
"yes. The guy nodded.
"I'd love to meet this weirdo. The man in red smiled again.
The guy hurriedly pulled him, "Guest officer...... I advise you not to provoke this strange man, although this man has a strange temper, but he is very powerful, and there was a person who did not believe in evil before, and he threw him directly from here. ”
"What? from here? on the second floor?"
The man in red's eyes widened, and a flash of disbelief flashed in his eyes.
"Yes, so, guest officer, let's not mess with him. The guy persuaded.
"But didn't you say there's an empty table here?" said the man in red, smiling and glancing at the man.
The guy suddenly stammered.
The man in red smiled again and said, "Moreover, I like to make friends with these strange-tempered but powerful people on weekdays. This weirdo, hearing what you said before, I really want to see it. ”
The guy wanted to say something, but was stopped by the man in red waving his hand.
"Alright, you don't have to worry about me. All you can do now is go downstairs and prepare a pot of good wine and a few good dishes for me, and I'll bring them to you later. ”
With that, the man in red directly pushed open the door of the private room.
And when he pushed the door open, he sensed a strong internal force and was coming.
Seeing this, the man in red didn't dare to slack off, and the protective body qi appeared directly, and his right hand pushed horizontally, directly cutting out a fiery knife out of thin air, colliding with the internal force in front of him.
Boom......
The sound of a sonic boom suddenly came, and the fierce wind suddenly swept in all directions, but the strange thing was that everything in this room did not move at all under the raging wind.
"This is ......" The man in red's expression moved, and at this moment, he saw a person.
A man sitting behind a square table, drinking alone with a wine glass.
The man was wearing a hat on top of his head, and he couldn't see his face clearly, but the moment he looked up, the heart of the man in red suddenly tightened.
It was as if there were two sharp sword-like gazes, shot straight out from under the pitch-black hat, and stabbed at his body.
"Being able to take the old man's blow, it seems that this time it is not a pig, dog, cow or sheep generation. ”
After hearing this, the man in red smiled slightly in surprise, clenched his fists and said, "Then I don't know if Huo has the qualifications to come in?"
"Of course, the old man is here, just to wait for you, if you are not qualified to enter, then in this world, no one is qualified to enter. The man said.
Hearing this, the man in red was slightly surprised: "So, Your Excellency is waiting for me on a special trip?"
"Not bad. The man nodded.
"But I don't seem to know your Excellency. ”
"Haha......"
The man laughed and said, "Wrong. You and I really don't know each other. But the old man knows you. ”
The man in red's expression moved slightly. Didn't speak.
"You don't believe it?" the man asked.
The man in red nodded, "Empty mouth and white teeth, it's hard to believe it." ”
"So you want me to show evidence. It seems that after you became an official, you have become the same as the government. The man laughed.
The man in red was startled at first, and then shook his head, "This has nothing to do with whether I am an official or not, I just can't believe you." ”
"Well, in that case, the old man will come up with enough evidence to convince you. ”
"Please. The man in red stretched out his hand slightly.
"You're coming out this time, but you're going to find the Wind King Mitani?" the man said suddenly.
Hearing this, the man in red, who had been indifferent, finally changed his complexion.
He came out this time to find the Wind King Migu. Because he wanted to find someone. And in the rivers and lakes, there is no one who the Wind King can not find in the valley.
"Looks like you do know me. Not only do you know me, but you also know the purpose of my trip. The man in red sighed and looked at the look of the person in front of him, slightly tinged with vigilance.
"You seem nervous?" the man smiled.
"I couldn't help but be nervous about someone I didn't know, but who knew exactly where I was and what I was trying to do. The man in red smiled slightly wryly.
"Haha...... Don't worry, I have no ill will. The old man just wants to tell you that you don't need to go to the Wind King to see the valley at all. The man laughed, and then said to the man in red.
Hearing this, the man in red suddenly moved.
But then he regained his previous calm and asked, "Oh? Why?"
"It's very simple, looking for the Wind King to see the valley will not be half of your help, but it will be the opposite. The man laughed.
Hearing this, the red-clothed man's expression changed drastically, and he looked at the mysterious person in front of him, and couldn't help but bring out a little hostility.
The man smiled again, "You can rest assured that I am not at all hostile to you. ”
But the vigilance in the red-clothed man's eyes did not weaken by half a point because of this, he looked at the mysterious man and said slowly: "If you can't come up with a reasonable explanation to support your claim, I can hardly believe your words." ”
"Huh...... It's a pity that I can't get the explanation. However, you can take this sentence back to Kowloon Mansion as it is, and someone will tell you whether my words are worth believing or not. ”
The mysterious man's words fell, and the whole person directly turned into an afterimage, passing through the window of the private room.
The man in red tried to stop him, but by the time he reached the window, he was nowhere to be seen.
At this time, the guy who had just been instructed by him to go down to prepare the wine and food pushed the door and came in.
When he saw that there was only one person in red, he was stunned, "Guest officer, where is that strange man? Why is he gone?"
The man in red shook his head, and inadvertently saw a few taels of silver on the table where the man was drinking tea.
So he smiled and said, "He left in a hurry, this is the tea money he left." ”
The guy scratched the back of his head and said confusedly, "Gone, but I didn't see him go downstairs." ”
The man in red smiled, looked out the window, and sighed, "How can a person like him be limited to just taking the stairs to leave?"
The man was astonished - how could he get out without taking the stairs? Could he still fly out of the window in this room?
He thought about it, maybe the man had left while he wasn't looking. Anyway, he has already paid for the tea, and whether people can go or not is free of others, so there is no need for him to care so much.
At that moment, he said to the man in red and left directly.
In the private room, there was only one man in red left.
I saw that he poured himself a glass of wine, and as he drank it, he wondered in his heart whether he should take that sentence back as the man had said.
