Xu Huaigu and Gu Sanyue walked very fast. The old alchemist was already sweating profusely as he chased after him. Not to mention the little Xingzi behind him. His steps were frivolous, one kick to the left and the other to the right, as if he was drunk. It was about to be crushed by that book box.
The old alchemist turned a blind eye and kept urging loudly: "Little Xingzi, hurry up! If you don't leave quickly, the ten taels of silver will fly away!"
Little Xingzi kept responding loudly: "Yes, Master!"
With great difficulty, Xu Huaigu finally stopped in a remote alley. The old alchemist chased him not far behind him. He hunched over and put his hands on his knees. He was panting and sweating profusely and said, "Oh, If you stop, my old bones will fall apart!"
Xu Huaigu looked at him with cold eyes, but he turned a blind eye and shouted to Xiao Xingzi, who was left behind and was still struggling to come all the way: "Xingzi, hurry up and bring your master's compass and signs! Show them to them. The ability to be a teacher!"
Little Xingzi immediately cheered up, quickened her pace, and responded, "Yes, Master!"
Gu Sanyue felt sorry for the child named Xiao Xingzi. Xu Huaigu raised his eyebrows, stared at him and asked indifferently: "Why, do you people in Xicheng love to buy and sell by force so much?"
The old alchemist smiled back but said nothing.
Little Xingzi had already run to the old alchemist's side, but accidentally stumbled and fell down. The bookcase fell over and its contents were scattered all over the floor.
The old alchemist was so angry that he puffed his beard and glared, scolding: "Be careful, if you break my teacher's things, just wait and drink the northwest wind!"
Little Xingzi fell to the ground and hadn't gotten up yet, but she still responded and said, "Yes, Master!"
The old alchemist finally regained his breath and smiled at Gu Sanyue: "Girl, don't go away. I have a few methods here that can help you survive the disaster. Do you want to try them? Ten taels of silver can buy a life, for sure. value."
Xu Huaigu wanted to see what Gu Sanyue was planning, but she couldn't stand it for a long time and cursed: "You old man! Have you ever abused a child like this? He is only eight or nine years old, how could you bear to do this to him?" !」
The old alchemist was stunned for a moment and then said: "Xingzi, this girl wants you to get up quickly!"
"Yes, Master!"
Little Xingzi got up in a flash, picked up the things in the book box again, picked up the book box again and stood respectfully behind the old alchemist.
The old alchemist smiled and said, "Are you satisfied now, girl? With only ten taels of silver, I can help the girl turn danger into good luck and survive the disaster. When I travel in the world, I rely on my real credibility and never deceive others." "
Gu Sanyue gritted his teeth, glanced at him unwillingly, and said, "I'll give you money, and you take this kid to eat something delicious!"
The old alchemist smiled brightly and nodded. Gu Sanyue took out several broken pieces of silver from his pocket and threw them into his hand.
The old alchemist grabbed them all with one hand, counted them carefully, and said with a satisfied smile: "Eleven or two or three dollars, the girl is really generous. I don't accept your money for nothing. I calculated that you have been in trouble recently, thousands of dollars." Never cross rivers, lakes, or seas, as you will most likely lose your life."
Gu Sanyue didn't believe his nonsense, just thought he was talking nonsense, and quickly sent him away: "Come on, don't follow us anymore."
The old alchemist chuckled and said, "Girl, see you later."
"Xiao Xingzi, let's go!"
Little Xingzi shook the bookcase, straightened her back, and replied loudly: "Yes, Master!"
The two turned around and were about to leave
In this small alley, I suddenly found two people standing outside the alley, and they stopped in shock.
The woman outside the alley shouted: "Why is it you? Hey... don't go!"
As soon as the old alchemist saw the man and woman standing outside the alley, his expression suddenly changed. He didn't even care about the little Xingzi who was carrying a bookcase behind him, and he started to run away.
It's a pity that the woman seemed to have practiced martial arts and was very strong. The old alchemist was old and frail. He could only run away for a few steps before the woman grabbed the collar of the back of his neck. He had to stop immediately and begged incessantly. .
The woman looked triumphant and glanced at
He looked at the old alchemist and sneered: "Oh, what a coincidence. I just saw you yesterday, but I didn't expect to see you again today? How about it? Do you still remember what I said to you yesterday? I saw you once. Hit you once!"
The old alchemist cowered and didn't dare to respond, but little Xingzi rushed to the woman's eyes, opened her little arms to protect him, and said angrily: "Don't hurt my master!"
The woman looked at Xiao Xingzi fiercely and said semi-threateningly: "This guy treats you so badly, why are you still following him? I think you are willing to endure hardship, so why not follow your sister? I will guarantee you good food and good clothes." of!"
Little Xingzi shook her head, opened her arms to protect the old alchemist, but refused to give in.
The woman's face gradually darkened. Just when she was about to take action, the man next to her hurriedly stepped forward to stop her and scolded: "Xiu Yang, why are you so reckless! I don't have any trouble with you, so what are you doing?" Take action against others!"
Xu Huaigu watched this scene in the alley and laughed.
Good guy, Ganqing really responded to the words "There is no place in the world where we don't meet each other." This man and woman turned out to be Chu Wenze and Chu Xiuyang, brothers and sisters that Xu Huaigu met many times in Fuyao Sect. At this time, listening to Chu Xiuyang's words, It seemed that he had dealt with this alchemist a long time ago and had a quarrel with him.
Xu Huaigu watched the show with a smile. He wanted to see how the two highnesses of the Fusang Kingdom would deal with this deceitful old alchemist.
After hearing Chu Wenze's advice, Chu Xiuyang did not listen to him this time and became angry and said: "This old man has no respect for himself and talks nonsense. Look at what nonsense he said yesterday? He said something about me again. The red luan star moves, and he said that your life was committed against Huating. Isn't this nonsense! He talks unabashedly and defrauds people of money, so he should be beaten!"
After saying that, she raised her fist and was about to hit him.
Little Xingzi refused to give in, and when he saw that a punch was about to land, Chu Wenze gritted his teeth and stepped forward, blocking in front of little Xingzi, and shouted to Chu Xiuyang: "If you want to beat them, beat your brother to death first. Why?" Now that my brother is dead, no one will stop you from misbehaving!"
Chu Xiuyang bit her lip tightly and punched him again, but with much less force, which sounded a bit coquettish. Quan thought he breathed a sigh of relief.
Chu Wenze stopped her and persuaded her in a low voice: "Xiu Yang, I finally have the opportunity to visit the Yan family today. Haven't you always wanted to go to the Yan family? If you fight, the soldiers and horses will be killed." How can we go if we are lured here and our identities are exposed? Moreover, our father will definitely ban us, and tomorrow’s Lantern Festival will be ruined! If you don’t tolerate it any longer, even if it’s for the sake of tomorrow’s Lantern Festival, you’ll let us go. Let them."
Chu Xiuyang frowned for a while, weighed it for a while, and then said reluctantly: "You two are lucky today. If you see me again next time, you must first admit your mistake and apologize to me, and then stay away from me, otherwise Even if the King of Heaven comes, I will still fight you!"
"Yes Yes Yes……"
The old alchemist was frightened. As soon as Chu Xiuyang let go of him, he
He ran away immediately, and Xiao Xingzi followed him, hurriedly and with staggering steps, and gradually disappeared into the crowd.
Chu Xiuyang wiped her palms and said disdainfully: "Tch, there are two charlatans, one big and one small. If you hadn't stopped me, brother, see if I don't give them a lesson and let them know that even if they cheat too much, they will have to pay back." of!"
Chu Wenze finally comforted Chu Xiuyang and said repeatedly: "You're right, yes, yes."
The two were about to leave, but Xu Huaigu suddenly smiled and said: "What a coincidence, please stay!"
Chu Wenze and Chu Xiuyang both looked at him, and their expressions suddenly became strange.
Chu Xiuyang was surprised that he was here. He must have seen her fighting, but it was a pity that the fight failed, which was embarrassing. What Chu Wenze was thinking was that Chu Xiuyang and him were messing around like this. Xu Huaigu must have seen the whole process, and the royal family would lose face.
Chu Wenze said subconsciously: "Xu..."
He reacted suddenly and changed his words: "Brother Yu, why are you here?"
There is only one word difference between Brother Xu and Brother Yu, but a lot of things can be understood.
Xu Huaigu smiled enigmatically at him, which made him feel confused.
But, I don’t know if I have been exposed in his eyes.
Xu Huaigu smiled and said, "Yeah, I think it's a coincidence too."
Chu Xiuyang started shouting and shouted excitedly to Gu Sanyule: "Oh, it's you! We met on the way down the mountain, do you still remember me?"
Gu Sanyue looked at these two people and remembered that the day she left Fuyao Sect, it was these two people who stopped her on the road and asked questions, especially this woman, who was very weird.
Gu Sansan frowned and said, "I still remember that you laughed at me at that time."
Chu Xiuyang explained anxiously: "No, I didn't laugh at you, I just said that! You misunderstood!"
Chu Wenze quickly smoothed things over and said, "My little sister has a weird temper and a tricky temperament, and some things she says come out of her head. But she still has a good heart and would never mean to laugh at the girl."
Gu Sanyue looked at the way she stretched out her hand to hit the old alchemist, and secretly guessed in his heart that this woman must be carefree and prone to having a bad temper, so he didn't take what she said last time to heart so much. .
Xu Huaigu glanced at a few people and said doubtfully, "Do you know each other?"
Chu Wenze explained: "It's like this. On the day when this girl was going down the mountain, she happened to meet my little sister and I were also going down the mountain. The little sister made some rude remarks and offended this girl. I'm really sorry, but we can't So we know each other."
Xu Huaigu suddenly understood, nodded and said, "That's it."
Chu Wenze greeted her with a smile and said to Gu Sanyue: "This girl, my name is Chu Wenze, and this is my sister Chu Xiuyang. I didn't mean to offend you before, and I ask your forgiveness."
Seeing how polite he was, Gu Sanyue lost his anger and smiled politely and said, "It's okay, I don't take it to heart. My name is Gu Sanyue. Nice to meet you."
Xu Huaigu felt a little strange, how could things in the world be so coincidental, Gu Sanyue and the Chu brothers and sisters had met in Fuyao Sect, and the weird old alchemist happened to have met the Chu brothers and sisters yesterday, and he met him again today, and It happened that Chu Xiuyang met the old alchemist here.
All of this is too much of a coincidence, right?
Xu Huaigu couldn't figure it out, but he didn't think it was a coincidence. He just kept it in mind and became more vigilant.
