The old man looked back at the three of them and said, "Here we are, this is it."
Because he turned his back to the lights when he turned around, Tantai Wutian and Ah Qingqing couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, they only felt a little light reflected in his gray eyes, his eyes flickered, as if He looked at the two long parcels on their backs.
The old man turned back and knocked on the wooden door on the stone wall. Tantai Wutian heard him knock three times hard and then twice lightly, which seemed to be some kind of secret signal.
After knocking on the door, the old man turned his head and explained to the three people, "It's not peaceful now, and it's not easy to open the door at night."
After a while, the door creaked and opened a crack, a head glanced behind the crack, saw the old man, opened the door, and asked, "Where did you come from?"
The old man said: "Come from the ferry with three guests."
The man took another look at Tantai Wutian and the three behind the old man, and with the help of the dim light, he roughly saw the appearance of the three of them, and said to the old man: "Let's arrange the three guests in the east room." opened the door.
The old man beckoned to Tantai Wutian and the others: "Let's go in."
Seeing Tantai Wutian walking forward, he went in first.
Tantai Wutian, Ah Qingqing, and the young monk Rongxin followed the old man into the yard, only to find that inside the stone wall was a rather small house, with five or six rooms in the main room, side rooms on both sides, and a backyard behind the main room.
The old man said to Tantai Wutian and the other three: "It's getting late, it's not formal, you don't have to see the master, and my relatives don't like to see strangers either, so we'll just stay here for one night and then leave, the three little guest officials Go directly to the East Wing to rest."
Although he suspects that the old man has bad intentions, it is just a suspicion. At least so far, he has not done anything wrong. Tantai Wutian cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, old man."
"It's unavoidable to go out, the guest officer doesn't need to be polite." The old man also arched his hands.
The three of them were no longer polite, and went to the east wing, opened the door and walked in.
Apart from a huge cabinet by the wall next to the door, the east wing room has a large northern kang directly opposite the cabinet, and there are no other decorations.
It was summer at this time, and there were only thin mattresses and single quilts on the kang.
The three of them got on the kang and lay down separately.
Ah Qingqing was suspicious of the old man after all, and planned to go out to find out his details.
Tantai Wutian disagreed, he told everyone to be more careful when they go to bed at night, there is no need to mobilize the crowd and have unreasonable doubts.
Ah Qingqing has encountered so many things these days, and has been on the road for several days, and feels a little tired, so she no longer insists.
Although the little monk Rongxin was ignorant, after hearing the conversation between the two, he knew that there might be something strange here, so he was more careful.
When sleeping, the three of them were vigilant, and put two swords and a whistle stick within easy reach.
Before you know it, the time has come to the end of the ugly time, which is the time when people sleep most deeply at night.
The little monk Rongxin finally had a big heart, and he was already snoring lightly.
Ah Qingqing's ears were always alert.
At this time, she suddenly heard a "chuck", and Ah Qingqing immediately raised her head vigilantly.
She turned her head to pull Tantai Wutian, and found that he had already raised his head and was looking around.
"Hissing", there was another strange sound, and the two finally found that the source of the sound seemed to be from the window, and then there was a sweet smell in the air.
Not good, Tantai Wutian thought, and immediately closed his breath. He looked at Ah Qingqing, and Ah Qingqing pointed to his nose, and he knew that she had discovered something abnormal. He hurriedly turned his head to look at the little monk Rongxin, saw that he was still asleep, and felt bad, so he had to cover his nose and mouth with his sleeve, hoping to reduce the power of the poison a little.
¡¡¡¡
After a while, the "hissing" sound stopped.
After a while, the outside heard no movement inside, and gently pushed the door open.
A man came in with his head poking around, looked at the kang, was suddenly taken aback and wanted to back away.
The two people following him were bumped by him unexpectedly, and the knife in one's hand fell to the ground with a "clang".
"What's going on?" The last person said dissatisfiedly, and the voice sounded younger.
"Bang", the door of the big wooden cabinet next to the wall in the east wing suddenly opened, and two people jumped out of it, holding swords in their hands, and slashed at the three people who entered the door.
Seeing that the swords were coming, he took the sword and blocked the two swords.
"It's already been photographed, so there's no need to hide it!" He shouted loudly.
Among the two swords in the room, one hesitated.
The lights in the yard suddenly turned on. Seven or eight people stood in the yard, and the old man who was pulling the ferry was among them.
"Lin Mo!"
A sword in the room lightly blocked the knife from the man outside, and shouted, "Is that you?" The voice was full of excitement.
The people outside the house were stunned for a moment, then jumped out of the circle with a bang, and looked at the two people in front of them.
Suddenly, he put the knife in his hand away from his waist, pointed to one of the two and said, "Brother Wutian, is that you?"
A young man in the room also stuck his sword behind his back, stepped forward and said, "Lin Mo, it's me, Tantai Wutian."
Another young man looked at the two with a sword in his hand and was stunned.
The seven or eight people in the yard couldn't help being stunned.
At this time, Tantai Wutian and Lin Mo were already hugging each other.
The two separated for a while, and Lin Mo said to the seven or eight people standing in the yard: "'The flood has washed away the Dragon King Temple', this is my brother Tantai Wutian. Let's leave, oh no, Prepare food and drink, I will have a drink with my brother."
After hearing this, the people dispersed, those who prepared the food prepared the food, and those who defended went to defend.
When the old man who punted the boat heard that Tantai Wutian was Lin Mo's friend, he couldn't help but come up and make amends. It's not surprising that Tantai Wutian didn't know the way, so he returned the gift politely and that's all.
Tantai Wutian introduced Ah Qingqing and Rong Xin to Lin Mo, but the little monk Rong Xin had to wake him up with cold water first. Lin Mo and the two met respectively.
After a while, the wine and dinner were served, and the four of them sat down in the main room and chatted while eating.
Tantai Wutian looked at Lin Mo in front of him and couldn't help but think of the scene where he and the Lin brothers were drinking and eating together in Linjiazhuang, and couldn't help sighing.
Seeing his expression, Lin Mo knew what he was thinking, and he couldn't help showing sadness on his face.
The two drank a glass of wine and remained relatively silent for a while.
Ah Qingqing's mind was relatively clear, knowing what the two of them were thinking, she drank a drink with her and did not speak.
The little monk Rongxin still didn't understand, and looked at the two people strangely, looking at this and that.
After a long time, Lin Mo said first: "Brother Wutian, I didn't want to say this at first, but since we met again by fate, I think it's okay to tell you."
Tantai Wutian listened quietly.
"Actually, the reason why Linjiazhuang was in great trouble is related to you."
"Oh?" Tantai Wutian asked in surprise. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
