After walking about ten feet away, Wu Ruo finally came to the end of the passage. He held up the oil lamp and looked to the left. There was a passage leading to nowhere on the left. The height is three feet high, and the width is about two feet. There is a faint fire in the distance.
He turned to look to the right, and suddenly, two human faces appeared in front of them, so frightened that Eggy almost blasted them away with a mysterious technique.
Wu Ruo hurriedly patted his son's back, calming him down: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid."
He used an oil lamp to take a look at each other's appearance. They were two men who were taller than him, with slightly disheveled hair and rough faces. They were dressed in gray coarse cloth clothes, and their shoes had been worn out with a big hole.
One of the taller men asked angrily, "Who are you?"
Wu Ruo glanced at them and said nothing.
The other man glanced at Wu Ruo's attire with sizing eyes, and the noble Wu Ruo made his eyes shine: "Hey, when did a beautiful rich lady come to our town? Brother Jiu, do you know? "
"You idiot, he's a man." Brother Jiu narrowed his eyes and stared at Wu Ruo's face, "Tsk, he's not bad looking, but this guy looks familiar, he's rich, take a closer look, Have we met him somewhere?"
"It looks familiar." Baofu stared at Wu Ruo for a long time. As if remembering something, he clapped his hands suddenly: "Isn't this the hag's son You Panyang? Let me go, he was really found by the hag? This stupid big guy didn't die after falling into the river, and his life was too short. Well, it is said that stupid people have stupid blessings, which is really good, Brother Jiu, look at his robes, if not thousands of taels of silver, then hundreds of taels, right?"
Brother Jiu stared at Wu Ruo's cloak made of fur, his eyes sparkling: "You idiot, where did you get rich recently? Teach me, when I get rich, I will never forget you."
Wu Ruo frowned.
Does he look so similar to that man named You Panyang? Otherwise, how could they have mistaken the person
By the way, who is the hag
Wu Ruo thought of the old woman who rescued him and her son, hugged and cried so excitedly before, maybe she regarded him as her son.
The rich man pinched his chin and asked, "Stupid boy, did you become the pet of a rich businessman, or you were taken by a wealthy lady as the face of the other party, tsk, it's different to look good. Earn a lot of money, big fool, is that your son in your arms?"
Wu Ruo ignored them, turned around and left.
Brother Jiu and Baofu quickly stopped his way: "We asked you something, you stupid fool, do you think you have a lot of bad money, so you don't bother to answer us?"
As Brother Jiu said, he was going to grab the ball in Wu Ruo's arms.
Wu Ruo suddenly lowered her face, and kicked Brother Jiu to the ground with one kick.
Su Fu was stunned, and said angrily: "You still dare to beat someone? Damn, if I don't teach you a lesson today, I will take your surname."
He raised his hand and swung it, and suddenly, a big fire came over him, scaring him away in a hurry.
"Ahh..." The old lady ran out at some point, holding a burning firewood, and angrily swiped at Baofu.
"Grandmother, do you want to burn me to death? Damn it, you two wait for us." Fengfu yelled angrily, and hurriedly helped Brother Jiu on the ground to leave.
"Ahh..." Po angrily cursed at their backs, and then dragged Wu Ruo back to the room between them.
She pointed to the chair in front of the table, told Wu Ruo to sit down, and then turned back to work in the kitchen.
Wu Ruo put Eggy on the table, looked at each other face to face, and sighed helplessly: "Eggy, we are separated from your father, and I don't know if your father and your grandfather are as safe as us."
Eggy comforted him: "With my father around, I won't let grandfather and the others have trouble.
"That's right." Wu Ruo rubbed his forehead hair with a smile, and was comforted by her son who was less than two years old.
Now that they are separated from Hei Xuanyi, Hei Xuanyi must be very anxious if he can't find them, and will send people everywhere to look for them, so they can't stay here forever. If they find the gate to the Necromancer, they should be able to see Hei Xuanyi's people searching nearby. When the ghost comes in, they can ask where the gate is, but the ghost is dumb, so I don't know if they can ask the gate The place.
Eggy looked around: "Daddy, it's so dark in here."
Wu Ruo sighs, "Can the earth not be dark?"
There is no sunlight here, so it is impossible to know what time it is now. No matter where you go, you can only see things clearly by lighting candles. Moreover, it is still very cold underground. I really don’t know how Hei Xuanyi and the others live here all year round. , no wonder Hei Xuanyi's skin is so pale, it's all the result of not basking in the sun all year round.
Wu Ruo looks at his shadow space, takes out a defensive magic weapon from it, which is a transparent crystal ball, and underneath it is a sort of candlelabra that supports balance, so it can be placed on the table steadily, and it drives inspiration, and suddenly the house is lit up in the daylight.
"Is it bright enough now?" he laughs.
"It's bright enough, it's bright enough." Eggy hugged the magic weapon happily.
At this time, the hag walked in with a big pot, and she couldn't help but be stunned when she saw the magic weapon Eggy was holding.
Wu Ruo quickly got up and put Eggy on the ground, then took the pot in her hand and put it on the table. A faint burnt smell wafted out of the pot, and she didn't know what was cooked, and it was dark inside.
The hag turned around and came in with bowls and chopsticks, each of them scooped up a bowl.
"Thank you hag." Wu Ruo took the bowl and put it in front of Eggy.
"Thank you, ma'am."
He was so hungry, he hurriedly picked up the spoon and put it in his mouth, then frowned: "It's rotten."
Wu Ruo was stunned, rubbed his hair and said: "This is the meal that the ghost mother-in-law worked so hard to cook, and it can't be wasted, you know?"
Eggy nodded, and continued to deliver the food to her mouth.
Wu Ruo also took a spoonful and put it into his mouth. It did taste rancid and burnt, which was very unpalatable, but he still finished it.
When he put down the bowl and chopsticks, he found that the old man had been watching him and weeping.
Wu Ruo quickly took out the silk and handed it to her: "Grandmother, why are you crying?"
"Ah..." Po was both happy and sad, looking at his calloused black hands, not daring to take his white silk.
Wu Ruo guessed that she should miss her son, so she took her hand and said in a good voice: "Grandmother, I need to clarify something with you. I just learned from Brother Jiu and Ruofu that I look like your son. Very similar, but I am not your son."
The hag looked shocked and exclaimed excitedly: "Ahh..."
Wu Ruo saw that the hag didn't believe her words, so she said helplessly, "It's true."
"Ah..." The hag grabbed his hand sadly, thinking that he didn't want to recognize herself.
"Hitch, calm down."
Outside the door, a woman's angry voice suddenly came out: "Grandmother, You Panyang, get out of here."
Wu Ruo frowned.
Hearing the voice, the hag quickly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, got up and held Wu Ruo down, motioning him not to go out, and then walked out the door by herself.
Seeing her coming out, the woman outside the door rushed forward and grabbed her by the collar: "Well, you hag, the people in our town kindly took you in, but you beat my son with a matchstick, which made my precious son suffer so much." Be careful to scare, heh, you have become so courageous that you even dare to beat my son."
Furious, his mother-in-law picked up the stick in her hand and beat her vigorously, and especially picked the ones who were not covered by her robes: "I will let you beat my son, and I will let you beat my son."
The stick hit the hag's body, making a crackling sound, and the hag screamed in pain.
In the room, Dandan threw herself into Wu Ruo's arms in fright.
The servant girl who followed said viciously: "Ma'am, you have to beat her hard, and see if she dares to scare our young master in the future."
With a grimace, Wu Ruohan walked out quickly and grabbed the wooden stick of Bao Bao's mother, pulled it hard, snatched the stick and threw it on the ground. Seeing that the witch's forehead was broken, he got angry and jumped to the highest : "You old woman, don't go too far. The hag just frightened your son with a fire stick, and didn't hit him with a stick, but you went down to beat an old man to death. Are you still human? And your son, who is a little scared Just crying to my old lady, she is simply a coward."
The maid sneered, "Even if we beat her to death, no one in this town would dare to say a word.
"Who are you bastard? Dare to call my son a wimp, don't you fucking want to live?" Baobao's mother stared at Wu Ruo angrily, and couldn't help but froze: "You Panyang, It’s really you, hehe, you’re dressed like a dog, you’re almost unrecognizable, you little bastard is just in time to come back, and I’ll pay back the ten taels of silver that your mother owes you.”
When the hag heard this, she waved her hands excitedly and shouted, "Ahh..."
She didn't owe her so much silver at all.
Wu Ruo probably guessed what was going on from her expression: "You said my mother owed you ten taels of silver? What about the IOU? Is there any IOU? If you don't have an IOU, get out of here."
The rich man was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect the dead fool to become so shrewd: "Are you planning to deny your debt?"
In this town, even if there is no IOU, no one dares to owe her money without repaying it.
Wu Ruo sneered: "You take out the IOU and talk about it later."
The maid said: "Everyone knows that your mother owes our wife ten taels of silver."
Wu Ruo didn't even look at her: "I'm talking to your wife, why are you interrupting as a servant."
The maid glared at him sullenly.
"Okay, you bastard, after working outside for a few years, you became more courageous, and dared to lie to my mother, right? Very good, it seems that if my mother doesn't teach you a lesson today, you don't even remember who in this town is the biggest."
Rich and his mother took out a dozen short whips from behind, and a black aura condensed on the whips.
The witch was so frightened that her face became even more ferocious, and she hurriedly protected Wu Ruo behind her.
Wu Ruo raised her eyebrows, she could feel that his mother is a Tier 2 magician, but she didn't understand how proud a Tier 2 could be.
"Aren't you scared?" The rich mother smiled triumphantly, and the next moment, she slapped Wu Ruo and the others.
