Chapter 16: Mrs. Eno (1)

When everyone heard the sound, they saw a Taoist man in his forties sitting next to him, with a long sword stuck in his back and a whisk on the table, looking at his expression, he didn't seem to notice the existence of Xiang Xingying and Zhong Ming brothers, so he just lowered his head to eat. This person seemed to have been sitting here long before Zhong Ming and his gang arrived, and if it weren't for the fact that there were no people around, everyone seemed to be suspicious of their ears.

"Who are you, why are you talking like this, don't you know who our gang is?" Xiang Xingying now has his younger brother and a group of people to support him, and he is naturally much more fierce than in the past, and immediately asked that person fiercely.

"It doesn't matter who Poor Dao is, the important thing is that Gongzi Shicai said this, don't you know that even your grandfather's ability was forced to die before Wolong Villa?

After saying that, the figure flickered, and the person had already walked out of the tavern, in addition to the one or two pieces of silver left on the table, he also left four words written on the table with his fingers: This son should be killed! The handwriting went deep into the table, and it was very clear. I didn't expect an ordinary Taoist priest with an unremarkable appearance to have such skills on his fingers, and he left such an epigram on a piece of locust wood tabletop as a soft clay.

looked at Xingying, although he knew that he was not the opponent of the other party, but for the sake of face, he also pretended to chase him out, so as to regain face in front of everyone. And said:

"This person also thinks of himself as a green onion too much...... It's really too deceitful, as if he is the local government. If you just tell him to slip away, where will you and my brother's face go!"

Zhong Ming didn't know that he was pretending, so he hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed him, and persuaded him seriously:

"Although what this man said was a little harsh, it was not unreasonable when you thought about it, he must have been observing you for a while, and he was angry about your fight with someone, and was ready to take revenge on you. Maybe I knew about my grandmother's relationship and had to give it up temporarily. You and I will walk the rivers and lakes in the future, it is better to keep a low profile. ”

Xiang Xingying thought that he was not the opponent of that person, but he relied on the support of his younger brother and his gang, and he actually faked it, and suddenly shook off Zhong Ming's hand and chased him out. Before Zhong Ming and his gang could follow out, they saw that Xiang Xingying's entire body had already flown back from outside the inn door, Zhong Ming knew that he had been hit by someone's fist and kick, and hurriedly reached out and gently took him into his arms.

When he put Xiang Xingying on the ground, Xiang Xingying scolded before he could stand firmly at his feet:

Unexpectedly, the kid didn't go away, it turned out that he had been eavesdropping outside the inn door, and as soon as his brother went out, he kicked him away. Fortunately, there is a younger brother to follow, otherwise this time it would be a big loss. It seems that this matter can't get back face unless my brother comes forward, and we brothers and sisters are eight or nine people, so we can't just suffer this loss, right?"

"It's all your own trouble, what does this matter is bell-ringing, and people are not coming for us. Yi Hui had the experience of being in the inn in the past, and said lightly at this time.

Xiang Xingying sensed the hostility in the eyes of his younger brother's companions, and now he had no choice but to take advantage of it. As a result, a brother got together, everyone ended up unhappy, and when the brothers said goodbye, they lacked the brotherly affection they should have, and Zhong Ming knew very little about his brother, and he couldn't get used to his actions.

Therefore, after asking his brother about the path to Sanshan Island, he immediately said goodbye to their group, and led his two partners to hurry to the beach. Some things in the world are easy to say, but there are unexpected troubles when you do them. When the three of them came to the edge of the East China Sea to inquire, they all said that they did not know that there was such an island.

The coast of the East China Sea is extremely long, and it is not easy to find a place that you are not familiar with. Zhong Ming inquired about many places, and at first thought that his gang had found the wrong place, and traveled to many places, and finally when he met an elderly fisherman, he listened to his introduction:

"Sanshan Island is very far from the coast, usually about two days away, and it is not unusual for nearby fishermen to refuse to go far to fish, so they don't know about this place. When I was a child, I went out fishing with my father, but because of a storm at sea, the boat lost control, and the fishing boat leaned on the edge of Sanshan Island in a daze.

"This island has grass and trees, just like the mainland, but the place is smaller, but no one has ever dared to go up to it. The old man has a legend that there is a sea monster on it, which specializes in eating people. Of course, this is something that no one has ever seen. The reason why this island is called Sanshan Island is because there are three peaks on the island that are very eye-catching from a distance, so that people can see it at a glance. ”

Under the guidance of the old fishermen, the three of them rented a fishing boat and advanced to Sanshan Island at noon that day. Luckily, I had a smooth ride and arrived there early the next morning. All three of them were out to sea for the first time, and their hearts were each uneasy, and when they saw the three hills on the island, they couldn't help but let out a burst of cheers.

After the boat was parked on the shore, they hurried to the island. Although Sanshan Island is small, there are more than ten miles of ground in a radius, and the three of them climbed to the mountain in the middle together. Halfway up the mountain, while passing through a wild forest, the three suddenly found that there were still inhabitants on the island. An old woman in her seventies with gray hair was chopping wood on a hillside.

The three of them hurried over to ask the old woman about the road, and Zhong Ming stepped forward first and asked:

"May I ask you, old man, I don't know how to go up the mountain?"

Unexpectedly, the old woman's expression was blank, and she didn't seem to hear the sound of the bell at all. Zhong Ming had no choice but to step forward and get closer to the other party's ear, and repeat what Shi Cai said in a loud voice, the old woman seemed to be moved by the breath in Zhong Ming's mouth, so she slowly turned her face, glanced at the three of them casually, and said "ah, ah" in her mouth when her hands waved.

Who knew that everyone finally met someone here, this person turned out to be deaf and dumb, Yi Hui and Xing'er were unwilling to give up, and each stepped forward to ask, and the result was the same. Despite the great efforts of the three of them, the other party didn't understand a word. In the end, Xing'er saw that the two companions were asking very hard, so she simply persuaded the two:

"I don't think we should work on this old woman in vain, it's better to walk by ourselves. ”

Yi Hui and Zhong Ming had no choice but to agree to Xing'er's proposal, and when the three of them turned around on the hillside, they inexplicably returned to the same place. It wasn't until this time that the three of them knew that the layout of the mountains, rocks, grass and trees here was very good, and it turned out to be a ** array. At this time, it was almost noon, and the three of them saw that the old woman had begun to bundle up the firewood and prepare to go home.

Yi Hui's heart moved, and she immediately motioned to her companion and didn't make a sound, just quietly followed behind the old woman. I saw that the old woman actually carried the firewood and walked down the mountain, and when she reached the bottom of the mountain, she suddenly turned to climb up the mountain. Zhong Ming saw that she was old and weak, so he hurriedly stepped forward to carry the firewood for her and signaled to send her home.

The deaf and dumb old woman looked at him for a long time, and at last she said:

"If the old body guesses correctly, you are Zhong Ming, another grandson of Master Mo, right? The ancients said: The dragon gives birth to nine sons, each of which is different. Although you two brothers look the same, their hearts are very different, if it was that Xiang Xingying, he would never carry firewood for the old woman. ”

While the three of them were shocked, Zhong Ming was even more confused, and at this time he couldn't help asking:

"The old man is not deaf and dumb, so why don't he answer our questions?"

Unexpectedly, the old woman's eyes widened, and two compelling cold lights immediately shot out of her eyes, and said:

"Why do I have to answer your question, those who set foot on this island without permission have always had only one end, that is, they chop off their feet and throw them into the sea to feed the fish! This is the rule of Sanshan Island, don't you even know this?"

Only then did Yi Hui know who the old woman was, so she hurriedly stepped forward and bowed and said:

"Yi Hui, a disciple of the Mo Evil Sect, I salute your old man. We didn't have the courage to set foot on your island half a step privately, but I just came to meet according to the master's order, and I ask you to be sympathetic to me and so on. ”

"It turns out that the little girl Yi Hui that Mrs. Mo said is you, which makes the old woman look away. ”

The old woman turned around and stretched out her hand to wipe her head and face, and then turned around, and to her surprise, this time standing in front of the three of them was an old lady with silver hair, a face as white as jade, and powerful eyes. If it weren't for her white hair, the three of them would have mistaken her for a woman in her thirties. Seeing everyone's surprised expressions, I saw her laugh and said:

"Four years ago, Mo Xie's old friend did make an appointment to live here, and it also relieved a lot of loneliness for my old man. It's a pity that after seeing off her eldest grandson Xiang Xingying a few days ago, I don't know why she suddenly said goodbye to me yesterday, saying that she had something important to rush back to the mainland. I saw that she seemed to have something difficult to talk about at that time, and I was not able to ask questions, so I had to send someone to send her master and apprentice away from the island yesterday morning. I didn't expect that she just left yesterday, and today you and others rushed over again. ”

After the three of them saluted her again, Zhong Ming asked:

"Dare to ask the old lady, you are Mrs. Eno, right?"

"Yes, I am the Lady Eno as your grandmother called me. It's just that few people in the rivers and lakes now know my title. The old woman's expression couldn't help but show a look of exclamation.

Xing'er is so young that she couldn't help but blurt out:

"Listening to the old-timers, the younger generations don't know whether it should be understood that the old-timers are old and there is a lack of people in the know, or should it be understood that your old man has not been walking around on land for many years?"

Mrs. Eno smiled, looked at her with great appreciation, and said:

"You little girl is very interesting to talk about, I am much older than your grandparents in terms of age, and as for how old I am now, even I can't tell myself. I only remember that when I celebrated my fiftieth birthday, Mo Xie had not yet married and had children, and Xiang Batian was still a nameless boy, but now in a blink of an eye, they have become pillars of the martial arts. ”

"According to the old-timers, are you older than the old man Peng Zu in this world?"

Yi Hui saw that she was exaggerated, and she didn't even take her master seriously, so she had the heart to suppress her arrogance and had to move out of the strange boss. Unexpectedly, this time he stabbed the hornet's nest, and for some reason suddenly angered the other party, Mrs. Eno immediately saw that her eyes were like spitting fire, and her demeanor suddenly judged the two of them, and immediately scolded:

"Peng Zu in this world...... This old bastard Peng Zu in this world...... Why, at such a young age, you even recognize this old bastard?"

Zhong Ming is not good at faking in front of people, so he nodded solemnly first. Seeing this, Mrs. Eno grabbed Zhong Ming in front of her, and her speed was so light that it was like pulling a straw, so that Zhong Ming could not dodge. It wasn't until this clock that I knew: it turned out that this "shadow-following" technique was not omnipotent, and it was useless when it met a master.

The reason for this is that the opponent's momentum and movements have already merged together, so you don't have any idea in advance. Before Zhong Ming could figure it out, he heard Mrs. Eno continue:

"Go!" Mrs. Eno was furious, and shouted, "Take me to him now!"

"This ......", Zhong Ming couldn't help but say anxiously: "In this life, the whereabouts of the old man Peng Zu have always been aimless, and he can only run into them occasionally, and he can't insist on finding them. Although the younger generation has been with his old man for more than three years, he has never been able to figure out where he lives now, let alone where his old man is now. ”

Lady Eno flashed with envy on her face, and then asked fiercely:

"Your kid has been with him for more than three years...... It should be considered a lot of fate...... It seems that you must have something extraordinary, otherwise why would he have been with you for three years. Now you have to tell the old body why you got such favor from him, or don't blame the old body for being unkind to you!"
