"The mountains are high and the rivers are far away. We are destined to meet again." Watson bowed his hands to the old woman and said goodbye, waved to Xiaoxue, and then pushed the door open and left.
After walking out of the old woman's house, I looked up at the dark clouds disappearing, revealing a full moon, and couldn't help but murmur: "I hope the weather will be good tomorrow."
The old woman held Xiaoxue's hand, looked at Watson who was gradually walking away, and smiled lightly.
Xiaoxue looked at Watson's back and asked, "Mother-in-law, where is Brother Watson going?"
The old woman looked at her and smiled and said: "If my guess is correct, something happened on the mountain, and he is going to rescue his fellow disciple who is trapped in a secret realm..."
"Oh, Xiaoxue finally came out once, and I don't want to go back so soon!" Xiaoxue yelled.
The old woman touched her head and asked, "What were you doing when Brother Watson went to save you?"
Xiaoxue looked at her and shook his head, and replied: "It seems that Xiaoxue can't remember what happened before. My brother gave us medicine, and all the friends there took medicine before they woke up."
The old woman was shocked, thinking that these killers were so hateful that they dared to drug her granddaughter.
I was also amazed by Watson's courage. At such a young age, he showed no mercy when facing a group of killers and cut them off as soon as he was told.
"What happened next?" the old woman continued to ask.
"Later? Xiaoxue, think about it...brother took Xiaoxue's hand and asked everyone to walk to the yard hand in hand!"
Xiaoxue recalled the previous scene and resisted in her heart because she didn't want to experience it again.
The old woman was shocked again. She heard her granddaughter's dislike from Xiaoxue's mouth. Everything that happened in the past few days was a nightmare to her.
"Okay, what next?" The old woman touched her hair, thinking that after a few days of tossing, it was time for the girl to go to bed.
"Later...my brother set a fire..."
As she spoke, the girl lying in her arms began to snore.
The old woman sighed softly and murmured to herself: "Will we meet again?"
…
Watson returned to the inn and asked the waiter to boil a large bucket of hot water and take a bath. He lay on the bed halfway through the night until Wang knocked on the door and woke him up the next day.
Shaking his still sleepy head, Watson made himself sober, thinking that he should leave here today.
"Little master, can we leave today?" Wang Yi asked, looking at Watson as he was thinking about the itinerary.
"Let's leave today and let the waiter pack breakfast for us to eat on the way." After saying this, Watson walked out and found the shopkeeper at the counter to pay the bill.
"Boy, pack up two snacks and drive my carriage out."
When Wang saw Watson's decision to leave at a glance, he didn't ask whether he had helped the old woman get the child back. For him, one more thing was better than one less thing.
After buying breakfast, Wang Yi handed it to Watson on the carriage and drove the carriage slowly out of the inn and walked outside Zhuxian Town.
"Little master, the weather is good today, we can run dozens of miles more." Wang Yi's mood gradually improved after leaving Zhuxian Town.
"That's good. I'll take a nap after eating." Watson, leaning in the carriage, just wanted to sleep again.
...
"Mother-in-law, I want to see Brother Watson off?" Xiaoxue ate a bowl of porridge and looked at the old woman and asked.
"No need, he has already left Zhuxian Town!" The old woman looked at the hazy sky and thought it would be cool to travel in such weather.
"Why? He didn't wait for me either." Upon hearing this, Xiaoxue pouted in disappointment.
The old woman thought for a while and said, "I guess he is afraid of trouble. You guys made quite a scene last night."
Xiaoxue frowned and said, "Why can't my mother-in-law find Xiaoxue, but my brother found her as soon as he came?"
The old woman sighed and said, "Those bad guys hid you underground, so my mother-in-law couldn't find you. Fortunately, your brother was lucky and met a killer on the street."
Xiaoxue nodded and replied thoughtfully: "Let me think about it, we seem to have come out of a cellar. Xiaoxue can't even breathe out in there."
"He had already rescued Xiaoxue before the mother-in-law took action." The old woman looked at her and said softly.
"When Xiaoxue returns home, ask her mother to thank Brother Watson properly." Xiaoxue looked at the old woman and said seriously.
On this day in Zhuxian Town, some people were happy and some were sad.
Fortunately, the child who had been missing for several days suddenly returned to his parents. From then on, the people of Lost Immortal Town did not dare to let the child go out to play alone.
The mayor was worried because a fire destroyed all the evidence and he couldn't even find a person to take the blame.
But he didn't know how many killers died, and he couldn't sleep well.
The knights who came from nowhere killed people and set fires, and rescued a bunch of missing children with a wave of their hands.
This time, he knew he had met a master.
He was not only afraid that people from the killer organization would come to cause trouble, but he was also afraid that the parents who had found the child would further escalate the matter.
No matter from any angle, they can be blamed.
The parents of the rescued children were also asking who had saved their babies, but these children had just taken the antidote and could not remember Watson's appearance at all.
As a result, the matter of retrieving the child became an unresolved case in Zhuxian Town.
In the following decades, no children disappeared in Zhuxian Town.
…
The carriage ran on the official road and gradually moved away from the important town of Zhuxian.
After sleeping, Watson lay in the carriage and seemed much better. From time to time, he opened the curtain and stared at the scenery outside the window in a daze.
Having solved other people's problems, he is now thinking about his own troubles.
"Little master, I'm afraid we have to spend the night in the wild tonight." Wang Yi, who was driving the car, said suddenly.
Hearing this, Watson couldn't help laughing: "Is it possible that you haven't prepared fodder for the horses? Why don't you stop in front and let them rest for a while."
Wang Yi shook his head and replied: "That's not the case. You should prepare more bean cakes when you go out, but you can't starve them."
Watson put down the car curtain in his hand and replied gently: "It's getting late, so let's find a place to spend the night in front."
The killers in Fengyu Tower all have today and no tomorrow. It is estimated that each and every one of them is carrying their wealth with them. Maybe combined, they can catch up with dad's wealth.
But compared with Wu Dabai's wealth, it is probably still far behind.
After all, Wu Dabai's wealth was stolen from the palace.
…
Tianzi Mountain is only a hundred miles away from Zhuxian Town.
There is a cottage-like place halfway up the mountain. It is said to be a cottage, but there are many pavilions and pavilions. It is said to be a sect. There are no common male or female disciples here.
It looks more like the lair of a mysterious organization, just like a bandit's den deep in the Yin Mountains.
In a pavilion deep in the mountains, several men in black were sitting around a table with solemn expressions on their faces.
A middle-aged man at the head sighed, looked at the men in black with their heads lowered in front of them and said, "Our goods in Zhuxian Town have been lost, and there is no news about any of our brothers."
The few people in black clothes in the room were silent for a while because they didn't know what to do.
They had never experienced what happened in Zhuxian Town before, and no one knew what to do at the moment.
Bring the troops and kill them again? I didn't dare to take this idea. After all, there was no news about the twenty brothers on my side, which meant that there was a big monk there, and these people couldn't resist it.
After a long time, someone finally said, "We don't even know each other's identities? What should we do? We can't send our brothers to rob people from house to house anymore, right?"
None of them dared to do this obvious robbery.
Who knows that the next moment he will be beheaded by the great monk hiding in Zhuxian Town with a sword?
"Separately go and check whether any outsiders have been to Zhuxian Town in the past few days, and whether anyone is in a hurry to leave." The middle-aged man said coldly.
After hearing the boss's words, several men in black fell into silence. This may be the only thing they can do at the moment.
"Why are you still standing? Send someone to investigate quickly!" the middle-aged man yelled: "This is a big deal."
"Don't worry, boss, we're going to Zhuxian Town right now." One of the men in black said in a solemn voice.
The middle-aged man thought for a while and said: "Let the wind go and pay close attention to suspicious people on the road! You can't queue up because people passing by did it casually."
The room suddenly fell silent again.
Everyone knows the importance of this matter, but everyone also understands that this matter has been exposed, so what if the person who did the bad thing is found?
It's okay to win, but what if you can't? It might even cost you your own life, it's not a bad thing.
I've never felt so frustrated.
...
At ten o'clock in the morning, Wang Yi slowed down the carriage and looked on both sides of the road from time to time, hoping to find a family to stay overnight.
Watson, like him, naturally hopes to find a family where he can stay.
After all, it’s not convenient to even make a pot of hot tea in the wilderness.
"There is a courtyard not far ahead. Let's go and have a look." Watson released his consciousness and found the target, and ordered Wang Yi.
"Little master, wait a moment, we will go there right away." Wang Yi naturally would not miss such an opportunity.
The carriage sped up and arrived at a yard on a slope only a hundred feet away from the mountain road.
Watson jumped out of the carriage, and Wang got off his horse and pulled the horse toward the yard.
The courtyard door of this house was closed. Watson glanced back at the five people following him and planned to open the courtyard door.
Pushing open the courtyard door, Watson shouted: "Is there anyone inside?"
After a while, no one responded. Wang Yi pulled the carriage and walked in, saying to Watson: "Let's go in first. When we see the master, we can give him some more silver."
Watson frowned and said calmly: "There is no village in front of this place and no store in the back. Let's just make do with it overnight."
Just as Wang Yi thought, it would be better to give some silver coins to the owner of the yard at most than to sleep in the wild by himself.
Wang Yi thought for a moment and said, "Young master, please rest first. I'll take the horses outside to let them have their fill."
Watson nodded and said with a smile: "You go feed the horses, and I'll cook."
The two of them started working together, feeding the horses and cooking the rice. Soon there was smoke rising from the yard, as if Watson was the owner of the yard.
After sneaking away for half a year, Wang Yi led the two horses back to the yard and tied the horses under the tree.
The two of them sat around the table and Tiansheng took out a jar of wine bought in Xiushui Town.
"Thank you for driving the car, let's have a drink!" Huisheng poured wine for Wang Yi and poured half a glass for himself.
"That's right, the weather will get hotter as time goes by!" Wang Yishu raised his head and took a sip, and said with deep feeling.
"The soju in Xiushui Town tastes different from other places. It's good wine." It was obviously not Wang Yi's first time drinking it.
Guard Xiang was startled, looked at Tiansheng and asked: "Tshengsheng, you have such a powerful elixir, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Watson glanced at him and said quietly: "Brother Xiang, after you finish drinking, go to the house and find a place to rest. You have to continue driving tomorrow."
Watson felt that tonight would not be a peaceful night, so he decided to spend the night on a deck chair under the eaves.
"Little master, don't you go inside and have a good sleep?" When Wang Yi said this, he seemed a little nervous, as if he knew what was going to happen in the night.
Watson looked at him and smiled: "I'm just worried about these two horses. The weather is hot. I can just sleep under the eaves. If I don't get enough sleep, I will sleep in the carriage tomorrow."
Halfway through Xu's hour, Wang Yi, who had eaten and washed himself, went into the house to rest.
Watson made a pot of tea, set a table, and placed two chairs under the eaves.
The sword box was leaning against his side, guarding a cup of hot tea, looking at the horses in the yard, wondering where the owner of this family had gone?
