We soon arrived at a hotel called Fengdu Hotel. This hotel seemed to have five floors. It looked quite luxurious from the outside. After entering, Cui Zuofei took us upstairs with ease.
"Now that the Hanba bone is about to be born, many Taoists and monsters have come to Fengdu to ensure that they can get the Hanba bone. The third floor where we are is full of Taoists, Yin and Yang masters, etc. There are many monsters living on the fourth floor." Cui Zuofei said to me in the elevator: "There are many disciples from Maoshan and Longhushan among the people who came this time."
When the elevator door opened, there were about a dozen rooms on the third floor. But all the doors were closed. Cui Zuofei took us to the room closest to the elevator. As soon as we entered, there were already two people inside. I looked and saw that it was Yi Xinxing and a stranger. The stranger looked to be about thirty years old and had a mustache.
As soon as Yi Xinxing saw me coming in, he said to me happily: "Xiaojiu, I missed you so much." Then he rushed over and hugged me. I immediately felt as if all the bones in my body were broken: "Fuck, Lao Yi, put me down. You're almost killing me."
Yi Xinxing reacted when he heard my voice. He put me down and looked me up and down. He said, "Not bad. You've gained weight. Haha." After that, he saw Qiao Shengfeng behind me and asked in confusion, "Who is this person?"
"Qiao Shengfeng." Qiao Shengfeng said coldly and then found a bed to lie down and sleep. I was stunned. This guy was really direct. He just lay down. I scanned the room at this time. There were three single beds. The stranger was sitting in the middle bed and looked at me with a smile on his face.
I took two steps forward and said to the stranger, "My name is Wu Jiu. I don't know your name, senior."
At this time, Cui Zuofei explained: "This is Taoist Priest Yang Haoran from Mount Mao. He is in charge of snatching the Hanba bone this time."
"Little brother, you don't have to be so polite. Just call me Brother Yang. I'm not one of those old antiques. Haha." Yang Haoran smiled at me.
When I heard this, I immediately felt that Yang Haoran was quite generous. The distance between us was shortened immediately. Then I said, "Okay. But what is the matter with the Hanba bone this time? Why did everyone come to Fengdu?"
"Let me say this." At this time, Cui Zuofei said to me.
It turned out that Cui Zuofei had a smooth journey to Shenyang. He quickly cured the poison. However, the temperature near the center of Hanba was slowly rising. It was clearly winter now, but it was as hot as summer there. The situation was getting very bad. Finally, everyone asked an old senior who was proficient in divination to calculate the location of Hanba's bones. He finally calculated that it would appear in Fengdu soon. At that time, all the focus was on Fengdu. Suddenly, a large number of Taoists and monsters arrived in Fengdu and began to prepare. However, the old senior passed away after calculating that Hanba's bones would appear in Fengdu. He did not know the correct place where Hanba's bones would appear. Now everyone is like a group of headless flies.
"So you are just waiting here to try your luck." I asked Cui Zuofei and the others.
"Yes. There is nothing we can do about it. There are basically no people who are proficient in divination in this era. Oh. It would be great if your master was still here." Yang Haoran sighed.
"Come to think of it, I haven't heard from Master for a long time. I don't know what he's thinking. Why hasn't he shown up?" I sighed and said,
"Don't worry. If he is going to show up, he will show up eventually. He must have his reasons for not showing up now. Don't worry too much." Cui Zuofei comforted him.
"Oh, that means we still have to play here for a few days." I asked Cui Zuofei.
"Yes. There are still eight days until Hanba bone is born." Cui Zuofei nodded and said.
At this time, Yang Haoran suddenly remembered something and said to me: "Wu Jiu, you know my junior brother Li Mingyao."
When I heard that, I immediately looked at Yang Haoran and answered anxiously, "I know him. Of course I know him. What happened to him?"
"Don't get excited. He's fine. He's in the room opposite us. He told you to go find him when you come back." Before Yang Haoran finished speaking, I turned around and ran out. Li Mingyao really helped me a lot in my life. In all aspects.
I opened the door and shouted inside: "Old Li, I'm here." After rushing in, I saw Li Mingyao. But Li Mingyao's face was still very pale, and his beard grew thicker. He looked very negative. When he saw me coming in, his eyes became excited and he said to me: "Xiao Jiu, we finally meet again." At this time, Li Mingyao's voice was very hoarse. When I saw him like this, I knew that he must have suffered a lot at that time.
I walked over and sat beside the bed. Looking at Li Mingyao, I felt that he had aged a lot. But after I came in, he still forced himself to smile at me. Although the smile was very forced, I knew he was really happy.
I touched his face and recalled a few years ago. When I was still in school, I chatted with Li Mingyao all day long. We would go out together and play games all night. In the blink of an eye, we have grown up so much. I don't know if the ghost baby problem of Li Mingyao has been solved. Anyway, I feel that he has lost a lot of weight. It feels like he is just bones and skin. There is no flesh. His eye sockets are sunken, giving people the feeling of opium.
"Haha. Old Li, you are fine." I asked while holding Li Mingyao's hand.
"Ahem. Nothing's wrong." Li Mingyao coughed hard and replied to me.
I stared at Li Mingyao and asked seriously, "Old Li, answer me, have you solved the problem of your ghost baby? Don't lie to me. You know my character well."
"Heh, kid. I know my own business. Don't worry about it, kid." Li Mingyao shook his head and said.
I suddenly got angry and asked Li Mingyao seriously, "Old Li, who do you think I am to you?"
"Brother." Li Mingyao said seriously when he heard my question: "I have not had many friends in Maoshan since I was a child. My only fun is playing games. Since I came to Chengdu and met you, I found that there are people in the world besides Master who are worthy of my care."
"That's it. Answer me in detail about your ghost baby. What's going on? Otherwise, don't call me your brother." I said to Li Mingyao.
