Great Sui Storyteller

Chapter 265 264. An old friend met a knife
Rare Beast Pen, Bieyuan.

"Is the door master back?"

As the sun was setting and the setting sun was about to sink into the Dragon Gate, Hongying walked to the gate of the courtyard where Shang Hanshan lived.

The inner disciple of Leihumen who heard her question nodded:

"The door master just came back."

"Okay, then I'll go in."

Hongying entered the room, seeing that the main hall door was open, she went in directly.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Shang Hanshan who was holding a cup of tea and seemed to be meditating.

There was still a faint smell of medicine in the room.

She knew that Shang Hanshan's injury was still not healed.

The battle on the Pegasus Grassland dealt almost a devastating blow to Sanzong.

Although those disciples who were invited to help the fist didn't say much, but the fire could not be contained in the paper after all.

The old ancestor was defeated, and the head of the Shang sect and the ancestor were equally injured.

But to the outside world, he had to put on a "doesn't matter" look.

It's not that Pegasus City hasn't experienced this kind of crisis. Although the ancestors were defeated, they still have a place to turn around.

If you lose your land, you will lose your land.Save people and lose land, and all people and land will survive.

It's not that they don't understand this truth.

Throughout the ages, Pegasus City has always been a piece of fat, and everyone wants to take a bite.But they can pass on to the present, there are naturally many ways.

What these methods are, Hongying can understand some, but can't figure out what.

And after seeing the pensive Shang Hanshan, she had a vague premonition.

The mood of the gatekeeper...

It should not be very good.

After thinking about it, she respectfully said:
"Master, this disciple wants to go out for a while."

"……Um."

Shang Hanshan didn't look at her, and continued to stare at a potted plant, his nose responded.

It's a promise.

Then asked:

"Have you sent the letter back to the eldest lady?"

"……already sent."

"Well, then let's go. If we keep guarding this rare animal pen, it will make people vigilant. Tell me, if the disciples want to go shopping, go shopping. The capital is prosperous, and they can naturally see more. Gain knowledge. Just don't conflict with anyone."

"Yes."

Hongying nodded respectfully.

After coming out, after conveying Shang Hanshan's order to everyone, the sky was completely dark.

The soldiers of Zhen Beast Pen really gave the people of Pegasus City a lot of preferential treatment.

After Hongying went out, the soldiers on patrol had already seen the two daggers with short blades stuck in her waist, but they didn't ask any questions.

I went on patrol on my own.

Treat her as transparent.

Hongying didn't mind being seen, so after she came out, she went straight to the house not far away under the darkness.

During the day today, the sun is not small.And now it was night, although the moon had just raised its head, but under the cloudless sky, the silver light shone down, also illuminating the way forward for her.

not to mention……

Tonight, the gate of the house is still lit.

A sheepskin lantern hangs at the door.

This represents the "etiquette" of the host's knowing that there will be guests visiting tonight, and deliberately illuminating the way for the guests.

The lights were dim.

But in the dark night, it was enough to point people in the direction.

Step by step.

The hard-soled leather boots stepped on the stone steps.

Come to the lantern.

Bairi's "Spring Friends Club" couplet has been picked.

There are two talismans pasted on both sides of the bare threshold.

Hongying took a look...

"Customers come like clouds"

"The evil spirit rolls rough"

"..."

Looking at the two talismans, a strange expression appeared on her face.

Like recalling, like dumbfounding.

The next moment, she restrained herself.

The index finger and middle finger were slightly bent, just about to sting, but the movement stopped.

After thinking about it, she directly pressed her hand on the door.

a push.

door, open.

With the help of moonlight, she stood at the door and saw the furnishings in the main hall.

Without even thinking about it, she understood that the table on the high platform in the east should be the table used by the Taoist priest when he was telling stories.

And the tables below are supposed to be for spectators.

Then, with some struggling eyes, she walked towards the main hall step by step following the fragrance wafting in the yard.

It should be the taste of japonica rice.

As she walked, she thought to herself.

Then, stepped into the main hall.

Except for some pillars, there is no cover in the main hall.

But the place leading to the backyard is surrounded by hanging bamboo curtains.

Apparently for the purpose of obscuring the rear living quarters.

The place is quite elegant.

Not elegant.

However, in the eyes of Hongying, who was used to the life of Pegasus Sect, she seemed a little downcast and poor.

It's just... the scent is getting stronger and stronger.

She walked directly towards the backyard.

As soon as he stepped out of the main hall, he heard the voice of "Herod".

In a shabby-looking shack, the familiar old horse was looking at her and shaking its head to say hello.

It knew Hongying.

After Hongying took a look at it, she understood that she had lived a good life these days.

Although it is at least twelve or thirteen years old, its face has become a little round these days, and although its appearance is average, it is not ugly anymore.

Obviously when it was snatched from the group of roadblockers, it still looked hungry.

And when I think about the past...

Her eyes dimmed a little.

At this moment, the kitchen door was opened.

She searched for the reputation, and a Taoist with a mouthful of white teeth came out.

The Taoist seemed very happy.

There was still that clean smile on his face.

The bun on the head is still held by a wooden stick, which looks very casual.

There was a lot of surprise in his eyes.

And half as it should be.

Standing at the door, looking at her, his mouth is still warm, but it reveals some joyful words:
"Hongying, haha~ To be honest, I'm still worried. I'm worried that you won't come tonight. I'm afraid it will be a pity for me to boil this pot of porridge. But it's okay, you're here. It's worth it. I bought a lantern for you this afternoon. Hang it up, lest you can't find the door, haha~"

To Hongying's ears, this tone was full of joy at the reunion of old friends.

There is no hate.

Nor is there any disgust or alienation.

just like……

What happened in the past has become like a passing cloud.

but……

It's only been half a month.

In the mourning hall of Pegasus City, the ever-burning candle that should burn for 49 days has not yet been extinguished.

In the ancestral mausoleum, the bones of the buried people are still not cold.

But in the eyes of this Taoist, it seems that he has been a white cloud and a dog, and he has been in the sea for hundreds of years.

"..."

Speechless.

Looking at the Taoist with a clean smile and eyes full of joy at the reunion.

Hongying narrowed her eyes.

Then, in the next moment!
The short blade of the chain around her waist has already flown out!

This blow, she did not hold back.

Throw it all!

The unique skills passed down by the Huai family of Chixuegu were instantly activated by the two chained and double-edged "Spirit Chasing Blades".

The dagger carried a wave of air bursting out, and the distance of more than ten steps was reached in a blink of an eye.

The indestructible dagger stabbed at the Taoist's brow!
