Sleeping Arhat

Chapter 21 To Huangzhou City
Chen Hou's yellow and black face was full of ferocity, and his eyes were even more sinister and fierce. He opened his mouth and said hoarsely: "I have to say, that Xian Yutong is a real villain. You started chaotically and ended up abandoning, and even stole other people's treasures, but you are a good brother, with a gentleman's style, but this world is like raising Gu, only the most poisonous Gu can survive to the end."

Seeing Rong Qi's complex eyes, Chen Hou paused, and said with a little guilt in his heart: "Even if what you said is true, I can't let the tiger go back to the mountain. After planning for so long, I finally have this god-given opportunity. I will let you go, you and I are brothers, and I will help you fulfill your last wish."

Rong Qi smiled wryly and shook his head, and said: "I'm thinking about my seniors, the two juniors will not hinder you, I hope you can save the juniors because of your fellowship."

"Don't worry, I still need to save my junior brother to gain the trust of my master. I will try my best to save him. If I can't save him, I will leave Huashan and find another teacher in the rivers and lakes." Chen Hou calmed down and said. .

"Then you come." Rong Qi yelled weakly, and set up his sword posture, but he refused to give up just like that, ready to make a final resistance.

Chen Hou suppressed Rong Qi with the sword in one hand, and secretly issued a poisonous needle with the other hand. Rong Qi used all his strength every time he swung the sword, but he was so shocked that he couldn't hold the sword. In the deep water, it is powerless to swing a sword, let alone resist a poisonous needle.

Chen Hou was not in a hurry, like a cat playing with a mouse, as soon as a few poisonous needles entered Rong Qi's body, Rong Qi's movements became more sluggish and weak, his lips were black, his face was pale, the light in his eyes gradually dimmed, and finally he opened his eyes wide open. He fell to the ground with blank eyes.

Chen Hou brushed it with his hand in great respect, and Rong Qi's eyes closed. After testing his breath and heartbeat, he was sure that he was dead. Chen Hou slashed his left wrist and stomach with a sword, and cut his clothes one after another. , the blood trickled out, and when the blood covered many parts of his body, as if after a great battle, Chen Hou cried and laughed, leaning against the tree with tears streaming down his face, tearing off the cloth to bandage his wound.

After cleaning up, Chen Hou's face was full of tears and pain, and his face was dusty and exhausted. With Rong Qi's body on his back, Chen Hou strode on his horse to rescue his junior brother.

"Fuck, ruthless." Hiding behind the tree, Wu Xian saw it clearly, and also imprinted Chen Hou's straightforward appearance deep in his heart. He felt a chill in his heart, and secretly thought: in the future, I will respect Chen Hou brothers at a respectful distance. You can't offend, such a sinister and forbearing character like a poisonous snake, if you offend him, you won't be plotting against you for the rest of your life.

Trembling three times in fear, Wu Xian lifted his pants and returned back the same way with a guilty conscience. He was even more chilled. In the future, he would still wander the rivers and lakes alone. In this huge rivers and lakes, not everyone is like himself. He is a gentleman and a pure heart. , You can't guard against the people around you.

When Wu Xian returned, old man Li had already arrived at the nearest town. Wu Xian found the green mule in the inn's stable, threw a handful of fodder, and entered the second floor of the inn.

Old man Li was enjoying the wine, Wu Xian also sat down, took the wine jar and drank three bowls in a row to calm the shock, and then ate a few stacks of side dishes on the table with old man Li.

Old man Li smiled and looked at Wu Xian who was still in shock, and said nothing, while Wu Xian patted his chest with lingering fear, and said with some fear: "Old man Li, the world is really dangerous, I'd better practice a few more years before going out to be cool."

After this sleepless night, the two of them set off early the next morning.

Old man Li looked at Wu Xian mockingly, and said: "You have dark circles under your eyes, you were so scared that you couldn't sleep all night, what happened to scare you so much?" Wu Xian quietly turned his head to follow him , found the code, Chen Hou poisoned his senior brother, self-mutilation, etc., told old man Li in detail, and old man Li also looked serious, and then said: "This junior is so cruel, he has planned for a long time to kill his fellow disciples. You will definitely become a big devil, you must be careful in the future and don't eat anyone's water or food."

"I know, I dare not eat the food you handed me now."

"You boy..." Old man Li chased and beat Wu Xian angrily.

After walking for about seven or eight days, looking at the Huangzhou City in front of him, Wu Xian sighed, old man Li's Jianghu road is over.Perhaps it is a beautiful thing that old man Li can live a peaceful life for a few years in his later years.

Old man Li looked at Huangzhou City. Thirty years ago, his parents and brothers starved to death here one after another. The years have worn away the years and the scars have faded. , Eye sockets gradually moist.

Without rest, old man Li went to the deep grave in the mountains alone, and sat there overnight.

After burying his family in a hurry because of the famine, old man Li went into exile with the crowd in order to eat and became a beggar later. When he came back this time, old man Li insisted on keeping a filial piety in front of the grave for three years to honor his parents.

So the two built two thatched huts to live in. When they were beggars, they lived in the open air, but now they are very lucky and satisfied to have a shelter from the rain.

Wu Xian touched the gradually shriveled pocket.After such a journey, there was not much gold and silver left, so he did not avoid the dilemma of sitting on the mountain and eating nothing. In order for old man Li to have a prosperous life in his later years, Wu Xian planned to go out to earn living expenses for his second son.

I walked around the town twice, most of them were recruiting casual workers, shop assistants, clerks, etc., and their income was not high. Wu Xian didn't have that kind of patience and thoughtfulness, and occasionally went hunting in the mountains. The butcher's shop and the inn.

On this day, Wu Xian was playing with a few ounces of silver in his hand. Wu Xian had slender and flexible fingers, and each piece of silver flew into the air one by one, and then fell steadily into his hands. He had a cynical smile on his face. But he is not one to wait.

The corners of Wu Xian's eyes slanted slightly, seeing a few sneaky figures, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, thinking in his heart: The fish is hooked.

Wu Xian cooperated and walked to the path outside the town, then stood on the spot and said loudly: "Stop following, come out."

"Hey, brothers, come out now that you've been discovered." A ruffian young man jumped out and stared at Wu Xian with an unkind expression.

After a stick of incense, Wu Xian stepped on his back and stomped him on the ground. The other two bastards also held their stomachs and wailed non-stop. Wu Xian looked at the three of them and asked, "What is it?" What's your name? From Huangzhou?"

"Brother, my name is Ah Fu, he is Ah Cai, and the other Ah Yong, we are locals." Ah Fu said obsequiously.

"You are from Huangzhou, so what is the most profitable business in Huangzhou?"
