Chapter Seventy-Five: The Black Snake
This night time flies a little too fast, probably because of the chattering sword Wuqiu relationship, even if Wanqing, who is as cold as frost on weekdays, is rumored to be a sword demon by this Jianghu, in fact, under some contact, it looks more like a talkative natural snake-pupiled man amused, always heard him say some interesting things in the world, but kept silent when he mentioned the young man who was exactly the same as Li Yuhu when he first came out of the sword mound.
He was stunned for a moment and then said.
"I really don't know what to say about that kid, not even where he is. β
"I don't know if the Ah Niu you mentioned is the person we have been looking for, we have met in the black desert, but he can no longer be said to be him at that time, he can't remember many things clearly. β
It's been a long time, and Mingyue was still a little sad when she mentioned this matter again.
"At that time, I asked him if it was him, and he said he didn't remember, I don't know if he really remembered or if he didn't remember, but anyway, I think if someone you've met suddenly doesn't know you one day, it won't be too good to be someone else, what do you think?"
"Just acquaintance?"
Jian Wuqiu was just a little unconvinced, he said.
"That kid has been with me for a lot of time, this kid is definitely one of the most persevering people I've ever met, he is thoughtful at a young age, he knows what to do and what not to do, and it is also a matter of urgency to be missed by the girl, presumably with his wisdom, even if he encounters danger, he can turn evil into good fortune, as long as he is alive, there will always be a time to meet. β
The next day was not a good day, as is always the case in Gangnam, the weather is changeable.
Sima Yun got up early, finished washing, and only opened the door of the inn when he saw a familiar figure waiting outside the door.
"You left last night and came back almost at dawn, can you tell me what bad you did last night. β
Li Yuhu looked at Sima Yun lightly, and the latter just said casually.
"Good things and bad things are always things, and since I'm doing things, it proves that I'm not going out to walk the birds, right? So don't ask more if you can, in short, whatever I do, it's for our plan." β
"I hope you understand what you're doing, some things are important, but I still have to advise you, knowing that you can't do it, it's not courage, but it will attract the wrath of the heavens. β
"Perhaps, but I do believe that things are done by people. β
Sima Yun only replied with such a sentence and went downstairs, this inn is not big or small, it seems that after Emei Yuqing and Sima Yun and his party stayed, there was no one else to stay, thinking that even if someone planned to find a place to rest, they would not choose to leave so many Emei fairies so unsightly.
originally thought that he had acted seamlessly, but he didn't expect to be seen by Li Yuhu that there was something wrong, which made Sima Yun have to sigh, a person has lived for a long time, and sure enough, his wisdom is a lot higher than ordinary people, except for Lin Feng's broken temple in the past few days, everything else has been smooth, but the calmer the water surface, the more convinced Sima Yun is that this kind of torrential surge under the surface calm is not an ordinary movement.
Now everything is ready, as for the thing that the Lin family has to protect at the cost of the family's life, Sima Yun smiled knowingly, some things must be known to others, and some things are better not to be known.
Everything is ready and only the east wind is owed, but when will this east wind blow?
Sima Yun walked alone on this not bustling street, and one person ascended to heaven, if a place that was not very big suddenly became famous one day, it must be something amazing in this place, such as the Lin family was destroyed.
And if a restaurant that doesn't seem to be very luxurious suddenly catches the attention of a man who is used to seeing big storms, it must be that there is someone in the restaurant who can surprise this man too.
"We meet again. β
Sima Yun looked at the man in front of him who had a broken arm, originally known as the second man in the rivers and lakes after the Spring and Autumn Period, Gongsun Jing was still the same Gongsun Jing, but at this time, compared to the demeanor of the first time they met, they had already judged the two of them, probably because of the long journey, and maybe because he had already encountered a lot of trouble, so that now no one recognized the unkempt one-armed man as the sword thief who was told the world by the Famous Sword Villa.
Gongsun Jing didn't expect to meet such a man who wanted to kill but couldn't kill here, so when he saw Sima Yun coming alone, Sima Yun thought that Gongsun Jing would use the sword, but he didn't expect Gongsun Jing to just move with his right hand, and in the end he replaced the hand that was about to draw the sword with the cup that held half a glass of wine on the table.
"It seems that you are not going to be carried away by hatred, and if you had just killed me with your sword here, you would probably be a dead man by now. β
didn't wait for Gongsun Jing, who was the wine and food on this table, to invite him first, Sima Yun reached out and took the wine glass from the other button on the table, and then took the wine jug from Gongsun Jing, first poured two coins of water and washed the wine glass, and then filled a glass of wine to pay tribute to Gongsun Jing.
"You broke an arm, and my arm was almost stabbed and smashed by a wolf, but fortunately, I am proficient in a little medical science, which made it recover in a short period of time, but the broken arm must not grow again, before I thought you lost your arm in the Famous Sword Villa, but I didn't expect that there was someone else. β
He walked into the inn like this and talked to himself, ignoring whether Gongsun Jing was willing to listen to it or not, so he said these three words, and it was not until Gongsun Jing mentioned the Nine Masters that Gongsun Jing was excited.
"Do you know where he is? do you know him?"
"I don't know. β
Seeing that Gongsun Jing was so excited, it proved that the nine masters were still alive, as for whether the nine masters were the guy he was waiting for, Sima Yun was not sure for the time being, but he just listened to what Mingyue said that the son was born with a cold physique, and he had to try to be a man every once in a while, so he felt a little similar, after all, although there are many people in the world, it is rare to have a strange physique at the same time.
"I just happened to hear about you and the Nine Masters, you chased and killed from the north to the south and didn't take it down, that person must be an extremely good master. β
"You know what?"
After a series of defeats, the original pride of the sky has now become a well-known sword thief and thief in the world, and finally met the enemy, one can't kill, and the other doesn't dare to kill, so he came to borrow wine to drown his sorrows, but now the troubles in his heart have been put on the bright side by Sima Yun, and no one will be indifferent.
Gongsun Jing looked a little excited, he said.
"If it weren't for that guy fighting and retreating, how could I not take him?
"In other words, that person didn't really fight with you, he was waiting for you on the official road, and he angered you, and when he finally arrived in this Jiangnan, he disappeared for no reason, right?"
What Sima Yun can figure out, Gongsun Jing can also figure out, they all say that when a person wants to be found by you, even if you are separated by thousands of rivers and mountains, you can see him, but if a person does not want to be found by you, then even if he is under the same roof, he may not be able to find it.
deliberately waiting for himself, and only avoiding and not fighting along the way, is not so much running for his life, but rather like deliberately luring people over.
It's just why did he do this? Sima Yun became more and more convinced that he and Gongsun Jing knew probably the same person, but from Wanqing's mouth, the nine masters were very different from the person he knew, after all, some people believe that a person has two faces, but if a person has two completely different personalities, it is a little unbelievable.
"It doesn't seem to have anything to do with you. β
can't kill Sima Yun, but it doesn't mean that you can talk and laugh at Sima Yun.
"If nothing else, I'll leave first, and I'll come back to you. β
Gongsun Jing threw away a table of wine money.
"I'll definitely come to you. β
He swayed like this, swayed with his sword in his hand, staggered up, and strode away.
Tasting the light wine, Sima Yun sighed lonely.
"I hope you come to me soon. β
"I've been looking for you for so long, I didn't expect you to drink here, and now everyone doesn't know where to go, and they are counting on you to come up with ideas, but you are the most chic one, I really don't know what you think in your heart. β
This tavern, which is not necessarily a good business, after stepping into the two fairies of Emei, passers-by frequently looked sideways, but in the end, no one dared to be embarrassed to step into the door of this store again.
Sima Yun looked at Wan Qingyue Dao.
"There are many kinds of chic, some people are dashing on the surface, congested in their hearts, and some people are dashing in their hearts, but their faces are full of sadness, I guess you will definitely ask me which one I belong to, it's a pity, I'm not either, I came here just because I saw a person I knew, and because of this person I know, I thought of some things, the reason why the Budweiser Dart Bureau was destroyed, why in the end, I believe they have probably told the two fairies, now our problem is how to find out that thing, inform you that the guy who came to Jiangnan has not shown up yet, he tossed out such a big move will not be just for funAnd I believe that even if there is no big case in Jiangnan, the world's famous and decent families will gather again sooner or later, all because of the word Demon Sect, since ancient times, good and evil are not separated, since the Demon Sect has surfaced, then there must be a battle between good and evil, but now, we seem to know that the Demon Sect is just the tip of the iceberg, to put it mildly, I am afraid that even if there is a Demon Sect master in front of us, we may not be able to recognize it, so the fact is that we are always in the light, and they have been staring at us in the dark, they lead us here, presumably not stupid enough to make trouble for themselves, since this is the caseWhy did you bring us here?"
Sima Yun couldn't figure out this question, even in front of the two fairies in Emei, he was worried, which was rare.
"If you can't figure it out, how can we figure it out? β
Wanqing seemed to think of the handsome Zhang who was clearly born, but he was extremely annoying in his words and deeds, and his tone was a little annoyed unconsciously.
"He sings with a red face, and he sings with a black face, what do you want to be famous. β
"Don't think about it for the time being, since he brought you here, he won't just ignore it, maybe he has some scruples about it, speaking of this, I think of another thing. β
Sima Yundao.
"Not long ago, I heard that something big happened in Wushuang City?"
"It's very noisy. β
Mingyue Road.
"It is said that there is a demon cloud, which has killed a lot of people, Wang Changsheng went out to pick up the star tower to fight in person, and it took three hundred rounds to disperse the demon cloud, but the dispersal is dispelling, in the end it has not reached the point where the soul is scattered, and now it is hidden by the demon cloud and there is nowhere to be found, and there should be no more chaos in a period of time. β
"Is there any way this came from?"
Mingyue said: "No one knows, I only heard that it is from the South China Sea, look at the direction, it should be the direction of Penglai." β
Sima Yun was relieved after hearing this, if it was really even spread out of their group, I am afraid that it would cause unnecessary trouble again, and now just a Xuanyuan grand plan is enough to give people a headache, even if it is not in Xuanyuan Hongtu's territory now, but this country is still the country of the Xuanyuan family, Xuanyuan Hongtu is nothing more than just because the one in the palace has not yet driven the crane west, it is inconvenient to show his minions, if Xuanyuan Qingshan once returns to heaven, it is expected that with Xuanyuan Hongtu's temperament, he will harm him again and again, and he has already reached the point of not dyingγ
"It seems that the world is really in chaos, and evil is born. β
Sima Yun finally drank a glass of light wine, and he said softly.
"In the past few days, I have been searching around in the Lin family's old mansion for the thing that has caused more than a thousand lives up and down the Lin family to suffer injustice, and I have not found any clues so far, so I plan to take a look again, I can't balance with the Demon Sect like this, continue to wait, presumably they will gather more and more masters, although they are not afraid of evil, but no one wants to fight and innocently hurt many lives when the time comes. β
This is the sixth time Sima Yun has come to the Lin family's old mansion, and after explaining his thoughts to Jian Wuqiu, Li Yuhu and others, in order to show selflessness, he even brought Mingyue and Fang Lansheng with him to see what was going on.
"My fire is not just a house, it seems that even the glory and merits of the Lin family in the rivers and lakes in the past few decades have been burned clean, if Lin Zhennan is dying, presumably the tablet of the god has been placed in this ancestral hall at this moment. β
It was not the first time he had come, but it was the first time for Mingyue and Fang Lansheng to come here.
"If you sigh with emotion, you should stay back and talk about it, or think about where that thing is most likely to be placed, after all, this is the only place in the Lin family that has not been affected by the fire, if you can't find it here, then there are countless places in the world, where to find it?"
Jian Wuqiu couldn't help but think of the picture of Lin Feng dying after telling all the secrets that day, he didn't deserve to die, at least if he kept this secret in his heart, others would have spared his life, but this down-and-out boy brother was still willing to choose to believe in the two of them in the end, in the end, it was actually just because of that roasted sweet potato, and it was really worth losing his life for this?
When Jian Wuqiu remembered it again, his brows were already tightened, and he suddenly heard Sima Yundao.
"Everyone has a life, I know what you're thinking, but sometimes a person who lives may not have the joy of dying, after all, just imagine, if he is alive, he will always just hide in a dark corner and survive, right? β
When Lin Feng died, after retracting his support, he looked up and saw through the roof of the temple.
Only at this moment, Sima Yun's eyes suddenly widened as if he had grasped the most important clue.
Why did he put his hands behind his head? Even if he wanted to relax, he should have his hands behind his head, because when he tried this movement, he found that it was not as comfortable as he had imagined.
Sima Yun raised his head suddenly, this ancestral hall has been rummaged through inside and out, even if the roof tiles are afraid that they have been removed and installed piece by piece, in the face of dozens of ancestral tablets of the Lin family, Sima Yun can naturally see the roof picture clearly when he looks up like this, because it is at night, there is no light in this ancestral hall, but there is still moonlight shining in, that is, there are several glazed tiles on the roof of the moonlight projected in.
Li Yuhu Jian Wuqiu had already had a lot of tacit understanding with Sima Yun, and only when Sima Yun raised his head and stared wide-eyed, he realized that something was wrong, and Jian Wuqiu quickly jumped up to the roof with one foot, and reached out to take down the few glazed tiles.
Li Yuhu exclaimed.
"Be careful. β
Be careful? What's the little heart? It's just a few tiles, could it be that there is some powerful mechanism installed on this roof? If so, I'm afraid there won't be any danger at the same time that so many tiles have been turned over.
However, Li Yuhu is not a person who is shocked, when he heard this, Jian Wuqiu already had a sword in his hand, if there is any change, he must be able to react as soon as possible.
There is no mechanism and no hidden weapon, the sword Wuqiu easily uncovered the three glazed tiles, but when he reached the last one, he suddenly felt a cold back, and he was covered in a cold sweat, because there was a red-eyed black snake hovering on the roof where the fourth tile was, and he instinctively took out his sword and slashed at the black snake, who knew that the black snake actually climbed up directly along his sword, wrapped around his arm, as if he wanted to tear this right arm off his body with the sword.
Then he heard a boom, and Jian Wuqiu's mind shook, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth, and the ancestral hall turned into fragments in the sky in the explosion.
The black snake ran away, taking Sima Yun's four glazed tiles with him. The dust fell, leaving Li Yuhu alone in the ruins looking at the direction of the black snake's escape for a long time.
Jian Wuqiu couldn't hold back the pain caused by Li Yuhu's palm that threatened to open the black snake's palm in a hurry, and said hysterically: "What is that? He ran away with what we were looking for." β
Li Yuhu said in a deep voice.
"That's not a thing, that's supposed to be a person. β
