Wu Qun suddenly spoke rudely, Xu Huaigu was stunned for a moment, and then his face became colder and murderous.
Wu Qun brought up the matter between himself and the demon clan again and again. He had already explained it to him at the tea party last time, but Wu Qun still refused to give in. He spoke out against him as soon as they met. Xu Huaigu could not bear it anymore.
Xu Huaigu was brought here by Fan Chen. Fan Chen did not expect Wu Qun to be so angry and scolded him without even saying a good word. He suddenly felt that his face was dull and he quickly said to him: "Wu Zongfeng, Be careful what you say! You said that Fellow Daoist Xu colluded with the Monster Clan, what evidence do you have? What's more, Fellow Daoist Xu saved the young lady from the Monster Clan last time, is it possible that this is also colluding with the Monster Clan?" Wu Qun snorted coldly. He said, "Who knows what he and the demon clan are planning, maybe it's a ploy to let the young lady back! Fan Chongfeng, you are just too friendly to him. In my opinion, such an unclear person can't even He shouldn't even be allowed on the ferry, let alone let him get close to the formation!" Xu Huaigu turned livid with anger, took several steps forward in one breath, and said coldly: "I'm getting close, what can you do?" Wu Qun He stood up, the scabbard on his waist trembled, and a white sword came out two inches.
He said without giving in: "Then I have no choice but to draw the sword." Xu Huaigu said angrily: "If you draw the sword, draw the sword. Who is afraid that you won't succeed!" After saying that, Xu Huaigu suddenly got a flying sword drill between his eyebrows. Out, fell beside him, he continued to walk forward steadily.
The sword at Wu Qun's waist was also unsheathed. With a sharp and cold sword intent, he could slash at Xu Huaigu at any time.
Xu Huaigu was still walking forward, Wu Qun had a cold face, kept his promise, and flew out with a sword. Xu Huaigu was not afraid at all. Although Wu Qun was two realms higher than him, he might not be able to defeat him, so the flying sword beside him also flew towards the sword.
Seeing that the two sword lights were about to collide, Fan Chen suddenly dodged between the two swords and threw out a talisman.
Then a white light flashed and he grabbed one in each hand and threw both swords back. Fan Chen's face turned red with anger, and he yelled: "It's nonsense, it's just nonsense!" He pointed at the formation flags and talismans around him and the formation eye in the center, and said angrily: "You dare to draw your sword here, if the formation comes out, If something goes wrong, everyone on the ship will be buried with you! Wu Qun, you are too impulsive. From now on, you don’t have to guard the formation, I will do it myself!" Wu Qun was still looking at Xu Huaigu angrily, and then closed He picked up his sword, snorted coldly, and quickly walked out of the hall.
When he passed by Xu Huaigu, Xu Huaigu looked stern and said to him: "We can't fight here, how about we go to the sky to fight and have a good time?" Wu Qun sneered: "Oh, it's just a kid like you, or Call your demon friends over again, or you can practice for another twenty or thirty years and fight me. I don't even bother to bully a junior." After saying that, Wu Qun turned around and walked away resolutely, leaving Xu Huaigu staring at him. His back was filled with murderous intent.
Fan Chen was not in high spirits. He walked to Xu Huaigu and said apologetically: "I'm really sorry, fellow Taoist Xu, for being let down by this arrogant guy." Although Wu Qun said that he was indeed arrogant and unkind on weekdays, he was not so irritable. Yes. Fellow Daoist Xu was originally the benefactor of our Yan family. This is poor hospitality by the Yan family. I will report it to the head of the family when I get back and ask him to punish Wu Qun." Xu Huaigu looked at the direction Wu Qun left for a long time. Without saying a word, he turned around and left. He left, leaving Fan Chen standing there with some embarrassment, neither pursuing nor staying.
After this storm passed, Xu Huaigu was in a terrible mood. What happened at the Zixia Sect Taoist Meeting that day was clearly the fault of the Zixia Sect. Why didn't anyone in the world say that Fan Xuan was at fault for killing people, but insisted that he was at fault for colluding with the demon clan?
He did know Bai Xiaoyu and Jiang Chengcuo, but they were not indiscriminate killers, especially Bai Xiaoyu. No matter how Xu Huaigu looked at her, she didn't seem to have killed innocent people.
Xu Huaigu walked alone on the corridor of the ship, his head slightly lowered, and he walked feebly downstairs, feeling very depressed.
After reading the book, he thought about something clearly. In this world, there are many things that can be cut open with one sword, but there are also many things that cannot be broken no matter how high one is, no matter how sharp the sword is. .
For example, people’s prejudices. But he actually didn't know that Wu Qun specifically emphasized that he colluded with the demon clan today, not to slander his reputation, but actually had ulterior motives.
Xu Huaigu walked alone to the street below the deck, preparing to find a wine shop and have a drink.
The ferry is huge, so the streets below the deck are quite large, including brothels, restaurants, trading shops, and other places. There is even a small theater where many people come in to serve tea and watch plays.
Xu Huaigu randomly found a wine shop, bought a jug of good wine, and then started shopping while holding the jug in hand while drinking.
Maybe there really wasn't anything interesting to go on the ferry, so there were a lot of people on this street.
Xu Huaigu was squeezing forward among the crowds of people who were shoulder to shoulder, but he saw a group of people crowded together not far ahead, surrounding a place with water tight, and cheers kept coming from there.
There were some short people outside who couldn't see inside, so they jumped up eagerly to look inside, wanting to take a few more glances.
Xu Huaigu was also curious about what was inside, so he also stepped forward. Fortunately, he was tall and could see the scene in the crowd without going in.
There is a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl in red doing acrobatics and playing with fire. The little girl in red has brown hair and is only wearing a midriff-baring shorts and short skirts, both of which are fiery red in color, revealing her vibrant waist and legs. Her feet are bare and without shoes, giving her a foreign air. style.
In her hands she held two fire sticks with fire at one end, and they danced as fast as the wind. He also worked hard on his feet. Although he was barefoot, a bell was tied to one ankle, and a rope with fire was tied to the other ankle.
The match rope flew with her footsteps, and the bell on the other foot also jingled. From the crowd, it sounded and looked good, and it was really a superb skill.
She suddenly stopped, took a step, ran forward a few steps, then exerted force on her waist, and suddenly bounced off the ground. It was a beautiful backflip, with sparks and bells ringing, and she immediately won the applause of the whole house.
Xu Huaigu watched the acrobatics of the little girl in red and was infected by the atmosphere of the crowd. He also forgot about Wu Qun and just laughed and drank, shouting loudly with the crowd around him.
After the little girl in red performed this wonderful cartwheel, she landed as nimbly as a deer.
She paused, and the performance came to an end. While everyone around was still cheering, the little girl in red hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and said with a smile: "If you guys are happy to see it, you might as well give some money as you like, no matter how much, it's all for my heart! "This performance was really enjoyable to watch. Immediately, all the onlookers donated their money generously. Some threw out copper coins, and some threw out broken silver. Xu Huaigu also watched it with great interest. He touched his body for a long time, but couldn't find any loose coins or coins. For broken silver, I simply threw a small green bead into it. It was mixed in between the yellow copper coins and the white silver, which was very dazzling.
When someone saw the small beads, they immediately exclaimed and said excitedly: "There are monks, there are monks who are actually looking at these things of ours!" Suddenly the people around started to look at each other, looking for who left them behind. Got this little bead money.
But there were too many people watching and it was noisy, so no one found out that Xu Huaigu had thrown it.
Xu Huaigu hid behind the crowd and laughed happily. When the little girl in red saw that she had gained a lot, she immediately beamed with joy. She put down the fire sticks and match ropes, called over a teenage boy in black, and asked him to bring a small bowl and pick up all the copper coins and silver on the ground. , but the little girl in red picked up the green bead money herself.
She smiled at the crowd who had not dispersed around her and said: "Thanks to everyone's support, this is the end of today's performance. Come again tomorrow, there will be many new tricks!" The surrounding spectators heard that the performance was over. , all sighed and dispersed.
Xu Huaigu left earlier than them. He left when he saw the little girl in red picking up the small beads.
There was still a lot to see on this street, and he might not be interested in visiting next time. He wanted to see all of this street today.
But he hadn't gone far when he heard a crisp voice shouting from behind: "Brother, please wait!" Xu Huaigu turned around to look, only to see that the little girl in red had already put on her shoes and was about to walk. He ran towards him, followed by a dark little boy. From a distance, he looked like a piece of moving coal.
The little girl in red had dancing skills and ran fast. She arrived at Xu Huaigu's side in a short time.
He was wondering why the little girl was following him, but he saw that she was holding the small bead money in her hand. She stretched out her hand and handed it to Xu Huaigu, and said with a smile: "This little brother, this is too precious. We are a As an acrobat, my master said that even two or three taels of silver would be considered a huge reward, and I really can't ask for it." Xu Huaigu looked at the little girl in red with great interest, but he saw that although she danced like crazy, she was very heroic. , but now that she had put on her shoes and stood in front of her with a smile, she realized that she was not tall and her face was a bit childish, more like a delicate little girl.
He did not take the money the little girl returned to him, but asked kindly: "How old are you this year? What is your name?" The little girl in red said generously: "I am fourteen years old this year, and my name has long been gone. , his stage name is Qieer." She pointed to the dark-skinned little boy behind her and said, "I picked him up in Xicheng. Although he followed me, he was very dull and refused to speak. Just call him Xiao Heitan. I touched his bones and he should be nine years old." Xu Huaigu said in surprise: "You can also touch his bones to see his age? Good guy, you are only fourteen years old, you can dance and touch your bones. Yes, how do you know so many things?" The little girl in red was praised happily and said: "I have been hanging out with my master since I was a child, so I naturally know a lot about these miscellaneous things. But these are all heresies. If you can earn some small money and understand the way of cultivation like this little brother, then that will be a bright road!" Xu Huaigu thought this little girl was really interesting, so he clenched her outstretched bracelet into a fist, pushed it back and said: " Although this money is a lot to you, it is nothing to me. You can just take it, there is no need to feel uneasy." The little girl in red shook her head repeatedly, determined not to take it back, and said, "Master said before, do what we do. Okay, we can only earn a small amount of money. If the spectators pay too much, it will be a disaster. We only have some small skills, so we can only earn a small amount of money with peace of mind. If we earn too much, the ancestor will be unhappy, maybe in the future I won't reward us with this meal." After hearing this, Xu Huaigu had to take the small beads money back and said: "Then you don't want this small beads money, I don't have any change on me, I'll treat you to a meal. Right?" The little girl in red smiled happily and agreed immediately, asking: "Where to eat?" Xu Huaigu said: "Come with me, there is no good food on the streets down here, I will take you to my place. In the room, ask the maid to bring some good dishes prepared by the chef on the ship, that would be good." The little girl in red was stunned, hesitated, and looked at Xu Huaigu with alert eyes.
Xu Huaigu laughed knowingly and said: "What, are you afraid that I will harm you? You are only a fourteen-year-old girl, how can you be so evil?" The little girl in red blushed with embarrassment and said, "How can I?" I just thought about it and went. What am I afraid of?" Xu Huaigu looked at the little boy behind her and said, "You can come too." The little boy looked at Xu Huaigu timidly and stepped back several steps, red. Miss Yi went up to persuade him several times, and then he followed Xu Huaigu tremblingly.
The thought of getting to know such an interesting two people again should make the rest of the ferry boat life easier. Xu Huaigu couldn't help but smile, and Wu Qun's affairs were temporarily put aside.
