Duan Qie was sitting in a private room at this time, with a respectful and reserved expression, like a good old man, sitting like a little girl who had not left the court, or even more than that.
Qiu Zizai glanced at Duan Qie secretly and smiled in his heart.
But he didn't show it on his face. He poured himself a cup of tea, blew on it, and drank it all.
With a kind smile on his face, Mr. Wu looked at Duan Qie, who was as nervous as an extremely tight string and might break at any time, "Young Duan, don't be so nervous, just relax." , just treat us as ordinary people.”
Duan Qie, who was sitting opposite Mr. Wu, smiled apologetically and said, "Mr. Wu is right."
Although he said this, Duan Qie felt even more nervous.
The person in front of me is unparalleled in terms of strength, status, and means. I have grown up listening to stories about this person since I was a child. With such a legendary figure sitting in front of me, how could I not be nervous?
Duan Qie has always admired Mr. Wu, and since he was a child, he has dreamed that one day he can meet Mr. Wu from a distance, so that he will be very satisfied.
Now not only can I see Mr. Wu, but I can also drink with Mr. Wu at the same table. I will die without regrets!
What's more, he was still sitting face to face with Mr. Wu.
What I saw and heard today, Duan Qie can blow for a lifetime!
No!
Duanqie can blow into the next life!
Not everyone can see Mr. Wu!
I am the lucky chosen one, so blessed!
hey-hey.
It's just... I don't know what to say.
And what if you say the wrong thing and offend Mr. Wu?
Ahhhhh, what should I do?
A smile appeared in Qiu Zizai's eyes. He looked at Mr. Wu, then quickly passed by the person opposite him, lowering his head slightly.
The man in green shirt came uninvited just as the three of them sat down.
Qiu Zizai came over excitedly, wanting to hear something about Bai Gu.
After all, Qiu Zizai was very happy to see or hear about Bai Gu's defeat.
But as soon as he saw the man in green shirt, Qiu Zizai immediately didn't want to hear the gossip and just wanted to get out of here quickly.
If nothing else, Qiu Zizi cherishes his life.
Qiu Zizai didn't want to provoke this person again for no reason and cause trouble for himself.
But just when Qiu Zizai wanted to make an excuse to leave, Mr. Wu smiled and said a word to stay.
"You collect the money, and then you have to leave before the signature is completed. Isn't that bad?"
Mr. Wu said so, it would be bad if he didn't stay.
Qiu Zizai didn't want to be alone in Yunshui City, with no one to speak for him in the future.
Forget it, just stay and talk less.
Trouble comes from the mouth. You can't stop talking, and you can offend people, right?
Mr. Wu picked up the tea cup and glanced at Qiu Zizai and the man in green shirt without leaving any trace. Then he turned his attention to Duan Qie again and said with a smile: "Duan Xiaoyou just said that he met Xiaobai? And from what Duan Xiaoyou just said, you guys Seems like I'm in trouble? Can you elaborate?"
Qiu Zizai tilted his head and looked at Duan Qie.
The man in green shirt sat upright and turned his gaze.
Duan Qie's scalp suddenly became numb, and his back felt cold and heavy. It seemed as if three mountains were slamming down on his back, making him unable to breathe.
Mr. Wu smiled and put down the teacup. "It's okay. Just tell me what you remember. There's no need to be afraid or nervous."
Duan Qie only felt a breeze blowing by, and the tightness in his body and heart instantly relaxed, making him relax a little.
Duan Qie immediately realized that it was Mr. Wu in front of him who helped him relieve his tension. He was extremely grateful, and his respect for Mr. Wu couldn't help but grow a lot more.
"I met Brother Bai and Brother Wang in Shayu Town, more than ten miles away." Seeing the difference in the three people's eyes, Duan Qie quickly added, "Brother Bai was traveling in a carriage from Shanshui Fang, and Brother Wang was traveling there. Shanshui Lang from Shanshui Fang happened to be going to collect wind, and he was almost on the way to where Brother Bai was going, so he discussed it with Brother Bai, and the two of them, oh no, the three of them left together."
There is also Bai Xiaoxiao, I almost forgot.
Mr. Wu nodded and signaled Duan Qie to continue.
Duan Qie scratched his head, "Originally I was going to Yumi Mountain. They needed manpower there, but Brother Wang said there was a mountain god festival on Jiaoyue Mountain near Shayu Town, so I had to stay and take a look. Yumi Mountain If you don't go there, you might just get scolded. But if something happens here in Jiaoyue Mountain, not only will your belt be lost, but your head may also fall off. Because as far as I know, there is no such thing in Jiaoyue Mountain. It is even more impossible to have a mountain god. As for the mountain god festival, there is no need to think about it. But Shayu Town not only has it, but has also existed for many years. This is obviously... Damn it! If I knew this, I wouldn't go there Find out the reason, this is dereliction of duty! You will lose your head!"
"Then why can't Jiaoyue Mountain have a mountain god?" Qiu Zizai was really curious and couldn't help but ask.
"This...I don't know the reason. I only know that due to some historical reasons, it is impossible for a mountain god to be born in Jiaoyue Mountain, and there will be no mountain god to take office. I don't know the rest."
"That's it." Qiu Zizai nodded, then glanced at Mr. Wu.
Mr. Wu glanced back at Qiu Zizai.
Mr. Wu, you should know, right? Can you tell Xiaodao about it?
Even if I know, I won’t tell you.
Ouch, Mr. Wu, don’t be so stingy!
Then Mr. Wu looked away and took a sip of tea.
Duan Qie watched Mr. Wu and Qiu Zizai flirting with each other. He wanted to take a sip of tea to moisten his throat and wait for them to finish before speaking.
Unexpectedly, the man in green shirt beside him said: "You continue."
When this person spoke, Duan Qie was actually a little nervous.
Just listen to him. He seems to be disrespecting Mr. Wu. What if Mr. Wu is displeased?
Don't listen, this person's status seems to be not much worse than Mr. Wu, even Taoist Qiu seems to be in awe of him.
Duan Qie didn't want to provoke the man in green shirt.
I kept thinking over and over again, and it seemed that whatever I did was wrong!
Duan Qie thought about it again and again, and finally decided to bite the bullet and continue talking.
Anyway, you have to say it sooner or later, and I'm just following orders, so you can't blame me.
"We participated in the Mountain God Festival and saw the so-called mountain god. My intuition was right. That ghost thing on Jiaoyue Mountain is not a mountain god at all!" Duan Qie realized that he had lost his temper and quickly calmed down. He apologized to the other three.
Mr. Wu waved his hand, "Young people, it's normal to be interested. But what do you think the rockery god on Jiaoyue Mountain could be?"
A hint of shyness flashed across Duan Qie's rough face, and then he rubbed his hands, "I don't know much about the various races and cultivation paths in the world, but that night I saw that ghost thing absorbing moonlight, and then its aura surged. After all, I have been a traveler for almost ten years. I have traveled to many places and listened to many anecdotes, but I have never heard of the spiritual practice of mountains and rivers, which is to absorb the essence of the sun and moon. This method is like The demon clan, as well as the cultivation methods of some special Taoism methods, absolutely cannot be the gods of mountains and rivers anyway."
Mr. Wu smiled and said, "Duan Xiaoyou, you forgot something."
Duan Qie immediately sat upright and said, "Please correct me, Mr. Wu."
"The emergence of the gods of mountains and rivers is nothing more than the birth of gods from the mountains and rivers themselves, and the appointment of gods from other places. The latter is divided into the promotion and demotion of gods born elsewhere, and the appointment of meritorious heroes."
Duan Qie suddenly realized, "Mr. Wu, do you mean that that ghost thing is probably a female heroic spirit with great achievements?"
If it were a heroic spirit, absorbing the essence of the sun and moon would make sense.
Because this is one of the training methods of heroic spirits.
Mr. Wu smiled and said, "I'm just reminding you of one of the ways in which landscape spirits are created. I don't mean anything like that."
Duan Che broke out in cold sweat, his back soaked in the snowy weather, "I may have misunderstood, please forgive me, Mr. Wu."
"It's okay, just keep talking."
"No matter what that damn thing is, it's very strong anyway. It's at the peak of the Mortal Realm. I'm only at the third level. Even if Brother Wang's Book Qi suppresses it, Brother Wang and I can't beat it." Duan Che's whole face showed. He pulled it down and said, "As a person in the Pimortal Realm, I couldn't show off in front of Brother Bai, and even fell into pieces in front of him. It's a bit embarrassing."
Qiu Zizai suppressed a smile, "That's true. With Xiao Baigu's mouth, if it were a poor man, he would probably miss him for several years."
The man in green shirt glanced at Qiu Zizai without leaving any trace, and silently took a sip of tea.
"Brother Wang and I were entangled in that damn thing, and then there was a shameless turtle grandson who wanted to rob Xiaoxiao, so we started a fight with Brother Bai. But Brother Bai was only in the Soul Enlightenment Realm, and the turtle grandson was already He has reached the spirit-casting realm, and it is clear that he is bullying the weak with force! Fortunately, Brother Bai is a master disciple of Sword Immortal, with excellent talent and good character, and he actually defeated the turtle grandson. If Brother Wang hadn't wanted to find out some news about Jiaoyue Mountain, Ask Brother Bai to be merciful, I'm afraid Brother Bai will kill that turtle grandson with that sword, just thinking about it makes me angry!"
With a smile on his face, Mr. Wu picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
The man in green shirt looked as usual, without even a trace of emotion on his face.
Qiu Zizai was a little surprised.
This brat can do it! Now they are so powerful that they can fight across the border.
"What's next?" Qiu Zizai couldn't wait to know what happened next.
Duan Che smiled awkwardly, "Then Brother Wang and I couldn't beat that damn thing, so we both fell to the ground and fainted. When we woke up, the damn thing was gone. We saw that Brother Bai was seriously injured, so we simply took care of it. After a while, I quickly sent Brother Bai to Guimian City for treatment."
Mr. Wu nodded, "You just said that the rockery god of Jiaoyue Mountain wants to capture Xiaoxiao?"
"Ah, yes! That turtle grandson is the sacrificial mage of the Mountain God Festival. It looks like he wants to capture Xiaoxiao as a sacrifice." Duan Qie became angry when he mentioned this, "Xiaoxiao is such a cute little girl. , Those two bitches really dare to think about it! If my cultivation level hadn’t been too low, I would have had to cut off their heads, they would be so inhuman!”
Mr. Wu understood clearly and his eyes collided with Qiu Zizai's.
Both parties knew in their hearts what the other was thinking, and they confirmed to each other that what they were thinking was right.
Sure enough.
Qiu Zizai asked again: "Xiao Bai Gu was seriously injured?"
Duan Qie suddenly became nervous, "Fortunately, Brother Bai suffered from excessive spiritual energy and was too weak. He could get out of bed after lying in bed for a few days. The injuries were not serious, just a few skin wounds. I left. By that time, Brother Bai will be almost healed."
This is a question. If there are any problems with the answer, I'm afraid my head will have to answer here today.
Qiu Zizai nodded, "That's okay. It's always right to suffer some hardships at the beginning of practice. Xiaobaigu's temperament will be very difficult in the future if he doesn't be beaten a few times."
Then Qiu Zizai secretly glanced at the man in green shirt and found that the latter had no reaction, and he felt relieved.
No one spoke, and the atmosphere suddenly turned cold.
Mr. Wu looked at the bamboo stick between Qiu Zizai's fingers, "You have collected money from others, and you don't intend to finish the signing?"
Duan Qie said quickly: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. I already know the prophecy of the bamboo stick, so there is no need for Taoist Qiu to worry about it."
Qiu Zizai put the bamboo stick on the table and pushed it to Duan Qie, "Pindao should have told you about it before, and you should also know in your heart that this is a dead stick."
Duan Qie paused, then nodded and said, "I know."
"But Pindao suggests that you should go to Yumi Mountain."
Duan Qie's eyes lit up. Is Taoist Qiu trying to save me?
Qiu Zizai looked at Duan Qie, and a basin of cold water poured down on him, "Don't get me wrong, Pindao is just telling you some ways to escape. If you go to Yumi Mountain, the end result will be better than if you didn't go. As for success or failure, that's all. It depends on whether your fate should end here."
Duan Qie's eyes were bright and he accepted the bamboo sticks on the table. "It's okay. The Taoist priest is willing to help me. I won't ask for anything more. I still want to thank the Taoist priest."
"It's early for you to thank me. When you can escape this disaster, it won't be too late to come back and thank Pindao."
Mr. Wu smiled on the side and said: "In that case, let me give you something as well. After all, chatting with Duan Xiaoyou feels pretty good."
Mr. Wu pushed out a small jade bottle and flew slowly towards Duan Qie, "This is a Shuiwu Pill. It should be helpful to your practice."
Duan Qie's eyes were full of surprise, and he took the small jade bottle with trembling hands, squeezing it tightly for fear of accidentally breaking it, "Thank you, Mr. Wu, for the elixir!"
Mr. Wu waved his hand.
Duan Qie also knew that today's discussion was over, so he stood up and said with understanding, "You three, I have to rush to Yumi Mountain. Time is tight, so I will take my leave first. Please forgive me."
"It's okay. Slow down on the road. Don't be too anxious." Mr. Wu said with a smile.
Qiu Zizai nodded, "Don't chase the setting sun, sleep in the mountain stream."
The man in green shirt remained expressionless.
Duan Qie walked to the door, bowed to the three of them again, and then slowly retreated out of the door, gently closing the wooden door of the private room.
Mr. Wu turned to Qiu Zizai, with a smile on his face, "I just asked you to interpret the signature. Are you afraid of backlash after saying so much? Don't say it's because of Xiaobai, we are not stupid, don't treat us as fools."
Qiu Zizai smiled and shook his head, "Since we are on the gambling table, how can we only gamble once?"
The flowers bloom on the same stem, with one branch on each side?
No, no, no, what I want is the more, the merrier!
If you have the ability, let the poor man pay for it!
"You are violating the precepts." Mr. Wu's tone was full of teasing.
Qiu Zizai chuckled and said, "A small gamble will make you happy, a small gamble will make you happy."
The man in green shirt sneered, "The big bet will be wiped out, the big bet will be ruined!"
Qiu Zizai suddenly smiled and looked out the window at the heavy snowfall. "The world is like a dice cup. Everyone is a gambler. How can life be a big gamble? If you bet right, you will be glorious! If you bet wrong, you will have to start all over again. ! What can a person who has nothing be afraid of?"
Mr. Wu smiled and picked up the teacup, thought about it, and then drank the tea in one gulp.
remarkably brave.
