Chapter 63: Where to go on your way back

Views:

The fat man tilted his head and looked outside the front hall door, "Who is that guy?"

"A flower picker." Nanfeng said.

"How do you know him?" Fatty asked.

Nanfeng did not answer. The man before was exactly the same as the thief he had seen that day, both in appearance and clothing. However, he knew that this man was not the same person as the flower-picking thief he had seen that day. The reason was very simple. He was half a head shorter than the man who teased Lingyanzi that day.

The appearance of this person confirmed his previous guess. The flower-picking thief Sui Hongchang was a fake, and the jade flute was also a counterfeit. The man he saw just now was the real owner. This man was in such a mess that he must be being hunted, and the people chasing him were probably Tian Dezi and others sent by the Taiqing Sect to the Yuqing Sect on official business.

"Junior brother, stay alive!" Urgent shouts came from the north.

At the same time, some wailing screams came from the northeast, "Ah~"

"Amitabha, your friend is probably dead." The fat man clasped his hands together, but his face was not filled with compassion, but with gloating.

"He and I are not friends, I just know him." Nanfeng turned around and walked towards his residence. Although the previous voice of "keep him alive" was a little anxious, he was still sure that it was Tian Dezi's voice, and that scream naturally came from Sui Hongchang's mouth. The other party had the intention to kill him, so how could he leave him alive.

"Amitabha." The fat man chanted the Buddha's name again, turned around and followed Nanfeng.

"Look!" A diner outside the door pointed to the southwest.

At this time, everyone was looking to the northeast and turned around when they heard the sound, but they obviously didn't see anything. They all looked at the person who made the sound in confusion. The person was a little ashamed and said, "It's dazzling, it's dazzling."

Nanfeng heard the sounds outside, but he didn't pay too much attention. Tian Dezi and others were nearby at this time, and he didn't want to meet everyone.

Back in the room, Nanfeng lay down on the kang. He was hesitating whether to let the fat man go and report a message to Tian Dezi. Since Tian Dezi allowed the person who did it to live, it means that Tian Dezi is worthy. Trust me, Tian Dezi was not on the mountain when he left the mountain, so he might not know what happened on the mountain. And today Keiko has had an accident. In case Tian Dezi and others have the intention to harm others, Tian Dezi You may encounter something unexpected after returning to the mountain.

But there is no difference between sending Fatty out and going out on his own. Tian Dezi can ask Fatty all the questions in less than three sentences. Even if he doesn't, Tian Dezi will follow Fatty to find him.

"The world is really not peaceful. If you don't have some self-defense skills, you won't be able to do anything." The fat man took off his shoes and got on the kang.

Nanfeng was thinking about something and didn't answer his question.

The fat man asked again, "Nan Feng, which Taoist sect are you?"

Nanfeng tilted his head when he heard this, and the fat man said, "Aren't Taoist priests divided into three sects? Which sect are you from?"

"I haven't officially started yet." Nanfeng said casually.

I guess the fat man originally wanted to ask Nanfeng what skills he had learned, but when he heard that Nanfeng didn't even come in, he didn't bother to ask anymore. Just as the waiter brought wine and food in, he sat cross-legged, drinking and eating.

There were no outsiders, so the fat man had no scruples, ate meat in large quantities, and drank by himself. However, he had been disciplined after all, and he himself felt that eating meat and drinking wine was not a good idea, but he couldn't resist the aroma of meat and wine, so he chanted after taking a bite of meat. The name of the Buddha can be recited even after drinking a glass of wine.

Seeing Nanfeng lying still, the fat man handed the chopsticks over and said, "You can eat too."

Nan Feng turned over and sat up. As soon as he took the chopsticks, he heard the waiter in the front office shouting to greet the guests, "Three Taoist priests, please come."

Seeing Nanfeng's expression change drastically, the fat man was very confused, "What's going on?"

"Don't speak loudly, let alone call my name." Nanfeng lowered his voice.

"Are you an accomplice of the flower picker?" the fat man asked in a low voice.

Nanfeng glanced at the fat man, lowered his head to eat, and did not speak to him.

Just after taking two bites, I heard the waiter leading the three of them into the backyard, "There are two more rooms in the upper room. Let one of you live in the wing room."

"Vacate the main room." The voice was low but arrogant.

"This, this, is not about money. Look at this..."

"Junior brother, please don't do it for him. You stay in the upper room, and I'll stay in the side room." Tian Dezi's voice said.

"How can it be done?" said a domineering voice. "Go and tell us."

The guy didn't dare to disobey and walked towards the main house in the east.

The two of them lived in this room. Nanfeng saw that the situation was not good, so he immediately turned over and lay down, pulling the quilt over him.

The fat man was very surprised, "What are you doing?"

"Don't change." Nanfeng could only mouth the words, not even daring to make a sound.

"Two guests." There was a knock on the door.

"I won't change!" The fat man refused without even getting off the bed.

Nanfeng groaned secretly when he heard this. The person who spoke earlier was Taiqing Zhenren, and he was very arrogant. Such a refusal would probably anger him.

Sure enough, after the fat man finished shouting, an unpleasant nasal voice came from the courtyard, "Huh?"

Nanfeng hurriedly pointed to his head and said to the fat man, "I'm sick."

"I'm sick," the fat man said loudly.

Nanfeng frowned again when he heard this. The fat man's voice was loud and there was nothing morbid about it. He meant to let the fat man say he was sick, but whatever, it was a blessing that the fat man didn't say, "My brother said he was sick."

No matter what, saying that he was sick and not changing rooms sounded a bit cowardly to the other party. Although the person who spoke earlier was dissatisfied, he did not insist on changing rooms.

The man might have thrown away money with the man before and never got a room in exchange. The man didn't dare to accept the reward and might want to return the money. The man said "reward you" and then went to the main room with another person, while Tian Dezi Then he went to the east wing.

There are only three main rooms in this inn, and the person who spoke earlier lives in the middle. There is only a wall between the room where Nanfeng and Fatty are.

Nanfeng knew how powerful Master Zi Qi was. They had clear ears and eyesight. No matter how quiet their voices were, they could still hear clearly from the next door.

Even if you don't speak, you won't succeed. If there is no sound at all, the person will also become suspicious.

Nan Feng made a gesture to the fat man, indicating that he should continue eating.

The fat man couldn't understand his mouth movements, but he could understand his gestures, so he ate and drank in silence.

The Taoist next door is probably the one who killed Sui Hongchang. This person is undoubtedly a member of Tian Mingzi's group. If he is discovered, his whereabouts will be leaked. But Tian Dezi on our side was in the first room in the east chamber and would be there right away. While Fatty was eating and drinking, Nanfeng had been hesitating whether to leave as soon as possible or look for an opportunity to report the news to Tian Dezi.

After half a stick of incense, there was the sound of the door opening next door, and then there was the knock on the door of the main room on the west side, "Senior brother, it's me."

The door opens, the door closes.

This was a rare opportunity. Nanfeng turned over and sat up, leaning close to Fatty's ear. "Wait for me here. I'll be back as soon as I go."

The fat man nodded in agreement. When Nanfeng went to the ground, he did not wear his own shoes, but wore the fat man's shoes in order to change the sound of his footsteps.

Nan Feng opened the door and walked a few steps east. Instead of knocking on the door, he stopped at the corner of the main room and the wing room, took off his pants and peed. At the same time, he bent his fingers and tapped on the outside of the wing room. wall.

The sound made by tapping his fingers on the wall was very small, but who was Tian Dezi? When he heard the sound, he opened the door to find out.

Tian Dezi can see at night. After opening the door, he immediately saw the south wind in the corner. He was shocked but only frowned slightly. After thinking anxiously, he pointed to the southeast, "The latrine is over there, why do you defecate in the corner?"

Nanfeng was like a boy, and he could stop peeing whenever he wanted. Hearing Tian Dezi's words, he immediately understood what he was saying, put on his pants and went to the latrine.

As soon as he walked into the hut, Tian Dezi followed him in, "I'm trapped in anger, but it doesn't matter."

Time is running out, so Nanfeng doesn't want to talk nonsense, trying to be concise and tell the past events.

Tian Dezi was silent for a long time after listening. Nanfeng was anxious and stared at Tian Dezi waiting for him to speak. This hut was shared by everyone and someone might come in at any time.

After a long time, Tian Dezi sighed and shook his head, "The matter has come to this, and there is nothing you can do to save it. You should return to the secular world, find a place to settle down, and forget those scriptures that you should not know. Don't go to the Liang Kingdom again, let alone Wanling. ."

Nanfeng didn't expect Tian Dezi to say these words, and couldn't help being stunned.

Tian Dezi shook his head again, turned around and left, going back to his room.

Nanfeng returned to the room in confusion and lay down again.

"Are you surrendering?" Fatty asked in a low voice.

Nanfeng raised his eyebrows and looked sideways. Seeing his serious expression, the fat man knew that the matter was very serious, so he didn't dare to ask any more questions. He removed the bowls and chopsticks, blew out the lamp and lay down.

After thinking about it carefully, Nanfeng quickly understood why Tian Dezi said so. The reason why everyone assisted him before was just because he knew the Taixuan Scripture. Now he has handed over the Taixuan Scripture. If he is possessed by the opponent, no matter how hard he practices, he will never be able to defeat his opponent.

What Tian Dezi didn't know was that he still had two tortoise shells on his body. If he knew about it, he would probably have another explanation.

He once informed Tianqizi about the Heavenly Book, but Tianqizi did not inform Tiandezi and others about it. What he was thinking at this time was whether he should tell Tian Dezi about the Heavenly Book, but after thinking about it, he gave up the idea. Today, Dezi and others have lost confidence in him and no longer help. This move is beneficial to both parties. Tian Dezi and others no longer need to put themselves in danger for him, and he will no longer be regarded as a threat by the enemy.

Since there was a master of purple energy living next door, Nanfeng had a very hard night. The fat man kept his eyes open to accompany him in the first half of the night, but he was always bored because he couldn't talk. In the second half of the night, he couldn't hold on and fell asleep.

At the fourth watch, Tian Dezi got up and went to the main room to knock on the door. "Junior brother, this pursuit of the murderer will take a long time. I will go to Yuqing that morning."

The two people living in the main room then got up and left the inn with Tian Dezi.

After the three people left, Nanfeng felt relieved and finally fell asleep.

Chenshi got up and the two of them went on the road again. The fat man asked about what happened last night. Nanfeng answered casually, and the fat man was half-convinced.

At noon, there was a fork in the road ahead, and the south wind turned onto the right road.

"Wrong, you should go this way." The fat man said.

"That's right." Nanfeng said. Tian Dezi deliberately leaked the whereabouts of the three people to him this morning. The three people may have been chasing the flower picker before and have not yet gone to Yuqing Sect. In other words, after the three people left here, will continue to go north, so he naturally wants to avoid traveling with the three of them.

"Where does this road lead?" the fat man asked.

"It should lead to the Eastern Wei Dynasty. Let's go and go there..."
