Chapter Fifty-Six: Cloud Villa Nine
Cheng Fuhai nodded and said, "Yes, it's her! Miss understands righteousness and chivalrous nature, and the old man admires it deeply." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info The old man doesn't care what the relationship between you and the young lady is, but she can give you the portable sword, which is enough to show that Brother Gu is a person who values love and righteousness, so the old man dares to entrust you with such an important matter. ā
In that case, then it all makes sense. Ever since I sat in this attic, I have been wondering why Cheng Fuhai was so polite to me, and why he rescued me so many times, and now it seems that all this is related to the woman who gave me the shadow chasing sword.
I couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "It turns out that Master Cheng Zhuang is also a member of the Demon Sect. ā
Cheng Fuhai's face suddenly changed, he made a silent gesture, listened with his ears pricked up, and whispered: "Gu Shaoxia's words are wrong, the old man is not a member of the Demon Sect, but just an idle cloud and wild crane." It's just that Meng Hanyan saved my life in the Northwest Swamp a few years ago, so the old man will recognize her. Later, in order to repay her, I searched for her everywhere, but unfortunately, the old man has not found her whereabouts so far, which is really ashamed. So the old man, like the people around her, called her Miss in his heart, hoping to see her again one day, in order to repay the life-saving grace of the year, so Gu Shaoxia mistakenly thought that the old man was a member of the Demon Sect. But this matter must not be known to the righteous demons, otherwise my Youyun Villa will be retaliated against by the martial arts decency. Gu Shaoxia, please be careful!"
I was stunned.
Cheng Fuhai in front of him is really as rumored in the rivers and lakes, strange and abnormal, and attaches great importance to love and righteousness. If you can't find someone, you call her Miss in your heart. He was so cautious, he was afraid that it was the other people in the Embankment Villa, and he seemed to be very worried that the feud between himself and the Demon Sect would be known, for fear that decent people would come to trouble the Cloud Villa.
Presumably, the Yang Cai Zhenren has not left yet, I have seen the methods of the Yang Cai Zhenren, and I can't see any changes in him on the surface, but once he moves, it is the most fatal. Just like when I was on Moon Lake Mountain, if it weren't for Zhao Chuanshu Daoming, I am afraid that I would never have known that Yangcai Zhenren had already known about the people of my private Demon Sect, and Cheng Fuhai also said that there are not many trustworthy people now, which means that there are also unreliable people in his villa. Yang Cai Zhenren is too deeply hidden, and he doesn't know if there are other trustworthy people in Youyun Villa, Cheng Fuhai probably knows this, so he is so cautious, and find an outsider like me to deliver a letter.
The two realms of righteousness and demons are like fire and water, I already know how powerful this is, and Cheng Fuhai must also know it.
I just don't know what kind of woman Meng Hanyan is, which can make Cheng Fuhai believe in her so deeply, even because the Shadow Chasing Sword trusts me so much.
I hugged my fists and said, "Gu Tian is rude, don't blame the seniors." ā
Cheng Fuhai said: "Where to say, the old man has already said that it is really an honor for the old man to be able to come, Gu Shaoxia will not be happy if he says some polite words to the old man." ā
Is it an honor? I can't help but smile bitterly again, Cheng Fuhai is obviously so honored because of Meng Hanyan's affection, right?
Now that the Eight Treasures Exquisite Coral has already been found, there is no need for me to stay in Youyun Villa anymore, calculate the time, three hours are almost up, so it is better to go out and join Lin Nan and them.
I stood up, hugged my fists towards Cheng Fuhai, and said: "Since the truth has been revealed, the juniors will not stay here longer, please hand over the letter to the juniors, and Gu Tian will definitely live up to the entrustment of the seniors." ā
Cheng Fuhai said: "The young man will wait here, and the old man will go back when he goes." Xiaoqing!"
At this time, the maid slowly walked out of the attic again, hugged her fists and said, "Master." ā
Cheng Fuhai said: "Go get a clean dress and change it with Gu Shaoxia." Gu Shaoxia, please wait. ā
After that, Cheng Fuhai got up and walked to the back of the attic, and Xiaoqing said, "Son, please follow me to the second floor." ā
I looked at the clothes on my body, and they were indeed a little tattered, so I nodded happily.
When I changed into new clothes and went downstairs, Cheng Fuhai was sitting at the table waiting, and when he saw me going downstairs, Cheng Fuhai handed me a letter and said, "Gu Shaoxia, this letter must be delivered to Master Benkong within a month, don't delay time." ā
I looked at the letter in my hand, the mouth of the envelope was sealed with fire paint, and nothing was written on it. I hugged my fists and said, "Senior Cheng, please rest assured, it will be delivered within a month." Farewell!"
Cheng Fuhai looked at me, nodded and said, "With the words of the young man, the old man is relieved." Xiaoqing, send Gu Shaoxia out of the village. ā
Xiaoqing walked up to me, bowed, and said, "Childe, please come with me." ā
I didn't take a few steps with Xiaoqing, and Cheng Fuhai said behind me: "The road is far away, young man be careful all the way." ā
I turned to look at Cheng Fuhai, he nodded at me, I hugged my fist again, and said, "Senior, farewell." ā
I followed the maid out of the garden, and the maid smiled at me and said, "Be careful, the road in the village is slippery on a rainy day." ā
I nodded and said, "Thank you for the reminder." ā
Xiaoqing smiled, didn't speak, and walked forward with the lantern, while I hurriedly followed.
We returned the same way with our umbrellas, and when we passed the garden where Shiqi was, Shiqi was not in the garden, and there was only a broken guqin in the attic.
I looked at the guqin and said to Xiaoqing: "Xiaoqing girl, I don't know what this guqin means to Shiqi?"
Xiaoqing said with a smile: "Don't hide it from the son, Miss Shiqi is a blind girl, her parents died since she was a child, and this guqin is the only object left by Miss Shiqi's parents." ā
I was stunned, no wonder I felt so strange when I fought her, she was blind.
No wonder she said that this piano meant a lot to her, and I muttered, "Miss Shiqi is really amazing......"
Xiaoqing smiled: "That's natural, all the people in my Youyun Villa are heroes on the rivers and lakes, and they only defected to the master because they were cornered." ā
I was stunned and said, "Cornered?"
Xiaoqing raised his head and said, "Exactly." My lord is kind-hearted, benevolent, and highly admired by people in the martial arts. The Yuan Daxia in the second level only came to the master because of collusion with the Demon Sect and to avoid disputes in the rivers and lakes, and many people in the village are like this. ā
I nodded, Cheng Fuhai said that he was afraid of revenge from decent people, and I am afraid that it was mostly related to these people who defected to Youyun Villa. I looked around and said, "The girl said that there are many people in Youyun Villa, so why is there so few people in this Youyun Villa?"
Xiaoqing said with a smile: "Childe doesn't know, every autumn, the lord will send people to the land of the barbarian to send some cotton clothes and rations, so that the barbarian can survive the cold winter, most of the people in the village have gone to the land of the barbarian in the past few days, so the village seems so quiet." ā
I can't help but sigh. The imperial court ignored the barbarian people, let them reproduce on their own, and did not even provide the necessities of life, the barbarian people lived in the mountains and wilderness for a long time, and life was difficult, Cheng Fuhai would have such a heart, it was really rare.
Xiaoqing was very talkative, and when the two of us walked all the way, she told me all the way, most of which were some interesting things about Youyun Villa. When I asked about the gatekeeper of the third level, she just smiled and said that if I had the opportunity in the future, I would go and meet the gatekeeper of the third level myself. But I think I may not be able to see the keeper of the third level for most of my life, after all, the Yuan Daxia of the second level is so powerful, if I want to defeat him and go to see the keeper of the third level, there is no hope of not cultivating for decades.
By then, I would have been a dying man.
Xiaoqing sent me to the gate of Youyun Villa, said goodbye to me, and closed the gate, while I didn't hesitate and hurried to the opposite woods.
Seeing me come back, Lin Nan was pleasantly surprised: "Brother Shadow Chaser, you can really get out of the way! Huh, why did you change into a new dress?"
I smiled, and when I was about to enter the Cloud Villa, I told me what happened, because Huang Zhutou was present, I didn't say anything about the Shadow Chasing Sword and the delivery of the letter, and the other things were just a simple fool.
Huang Zhutou was overjoyed and said: "The shadow chasing young man is really superb, Huang didn't see the wrong person, now without further ado, let's rush back to Yongxing County to find the Eight Treasures Exquisite Coral." ā
Huang Zhutou was right, and we had no objections, so we immediately rode on a fast horse and rushed to the east of the mountain and forest.
It was only about an hour before dawn, and it was pitch black in the woods, the drizzle had not stopped, and the road was so muddy that we didn't dare to speed up on horseback.
Lin Nan smiled: "Brother Shadow Chasing, is Cheng Fuhai really the old man we met in the horse market?"
I nodded and said, "Yes, it's the old gentleman we met." ā
Huang Zhutou smiled behind him: "I knew this was the case, we should have entered Youyun Villa together, why bother to go around such a big circle, and the harmful shadow chasing brothers touched it from the waterway." ā
Baili Tu also smiled: "That's it, I knew this was the case, we all went in, and went to Youyun Villa to ask for a few bowls of wine to warm up, it is better than staying in the dark and cold forest, Brother Gu came out with new clothes, but we were drenched in soup." ā
Baili was so outspoken that we all laughed.
I was talking and laughing with the three of them, when I heard the sound of an arrow shooting at the trunk of a big tree in front of me.
I was so startled that I didn't have time to shout when I suddenly heard the sound of "whooshing" arrows in my ears, and more arrows came from behind me.
"Aggressive ......"
Huang Zhutou shouted: "It's not good, go quickly!"
We hurriedly crouched on the back of our horses, ignoring the darkness around us and the mud on the road, and rushed forward.
I suddenly remembered what Cheng Fuhai said to me before leaving: Young man be careful all the way!
"Drink!"
I raised my whip vigorously, and my heart was as cold as ice.
