Chapter 31 The gentleman knows how easy it is to stand by, and the villain lives by chance

The old man August wiped the rain from his face and looked upwards... Before he could shout out the door, he had already poked his head out of the tower, and looked down with the fire in the room for a few times, shouting sternly: "Who is it?"

The fire swayed, and the cold light was faintly visible between the tower, and I don’t know how many people were hiding it.

August reached out and wiped the rain on his face hard, squinted his eyes and showed a flattering smile and shouted: "We are the mountain tourists who went in to dig ginseng! It was raining today and it was a little late. Please let us in for some convenience!"

"Shanke?" The man looked at him in confusion: "Who is the person right away? Take off the clothes and show me!"

Before the master could call him, Supreme Treasure had already pulled down his clothes and shouted crisply: "Uncle, Uncle, the rain is so heavy, I'm so cold and hungry! Please let us in!"

"Oh, kid, please cover your clothes quickly." August pretended to pull the clothes to Supreme Paul, and looked up again: "Good, all of you, my grandson is young, but I can't stand the wind and cold. It's heavy and heavy..."

"Okay, I'll let you in," the man finally let go: "I'm waiting..."

As soon as these words came out, several noisy voices shouted: "Second Young Master, this is so dark that you can't open the door!"

"Cough cough cough..." A few coughs came from the right place!

The man coughed when he heard this, turned around and shouted to others, "Shut up! Although the village stipulates that the lamp should not be opened, it just means that there are very few ordinary people. What's the point of waiting for us today? A few days ago, my father said that we should do more good deeds and prayed to the Bodhisattva to bless my mother's illness to recover early, and helping the old man and children is a great good deed!"

"But..." Someone wanted to stop him, but the young man immediately interrupted him and asked, "Do you want me to commit sins if I don't save you, and my mother's illness will not improve?"

"The villain dares not!" Who dares to agree if he says this a little too big? So he had to smile and say, "Second Young Master, we naturally hope that our wife's illness will be cured soon! This is a good deed, so we will do it right away!"

Soon, the thick wooden door made a creaking sound and was pushed open. At the same time, four men holding bows and arrows were exposed on the whistle tower. The bright arrows were aimed at the more than ten feet of fire behind them. In the mountains, bandits and others often asked old and weak to open the village gate, and then rushed up and rushed in. This was prepared for it.

It is worthy of being a big store!

The visitor opened the gap in the village door, looked outside vigilantly, and then pulled it open. The person who opened the door was a young man, holding a sharp steel knife in his hand, and there were two equally strong men around him. The three of them were scattered in shapes of the "Pin" several meters apart, obviously they were well-trained - how could there be so many people guarding this dark night with heavy rain?

Is there something wrong?

Before the Eighth Master changed his mind, the young man had already waved and said, "Come in quickly! Go in by yourself, remember that the red lanterns are kilns and the yellow lanterns are inns. You have to do business until dawn tomorrow...Ye?"

As he was talking, a sudden burst of horse hooves suddenly came out of the dark night!

The three of them pulled out their swords with a thud, their arms bent slightly, like those jackals, tigers and leopards that were full of strength, and their eyes became extremely fierce... At this moment, someone suddenly shouted at the whistle tower: "Big Master! It's the eldest master who is back!"

"Big Young Master?" The three of them were happy when they heard this, and quickly put the knife into the sheath to greet them. "Big Young Master is back! Big Master, Big Master..." They were not afraid of heavy rain, so they rushed out.

They actually left the two of them here without anyone paying attention!

At this moment, August suddenly realized that there were so many people waiting here tonight, so it was because of this. It was because of many people waiting here that the checkpoint would listen to the second young master and risk opening the door. Otherwise, the two or three guards would open the door for the two of them to the darkness?

While they were thinking, they heard the wooden staircase crackling in the door, and several people rushed down from above, with rain gear covered with straw raincoats and hats. The two of them hurriedly asked to wait for someone to come over, but when they walked beside them, the boy in the middle was already in his arms.

Seeing that the two men were thinly dressed, and were wet by the rain, they felt so pitiful that they moved. They took the hat from someone else and handed it to August, took another straw raincoat and draped it on Supreme Treasure, and said to themselves:

"It's windy and rainy. I'll lend you this straw hat and straw raincoat. Hurry up and find a place to rest - Oh! It's really not easy to find food. At such a young age, I followed my grandfather to dig ginseng." He pulled the straw coat in his hand and pulled it tightly, "Go, if there are any difficulties in this Kunshan Village, come to me. My name is Qin Lu, remember!"

Listening to the voice of the voice, the second young master who began to open the door.

August and Supreme Bao thanked each other repeatedly, but the second young master Qin Lu just smiled slightly and turned around and faced outside the village gate.

Outside the door, several horses have arrived!

The two walked in according to those people, and saw that the entire village was built according to the mountain, with several levels of ups and downs. Most of the houses were built with rocks and thick wooden ceilings. They were strong and durable. Even the fire bow and crossbow in ancient times could not cause major damage. It really did not disappoint the name of Kunlun's first village.

There are three layers of clear upper and lower layers. The top is full of large houses and wide houses. All of them are made of large pieces of bluestone and plaster. They are only seven or eight rooms in a row. In the middle are thick wood and stone houses, which are probably not as many as a hundred and ten rooms, and they are densely packed and tightly. In the bottom two streets, the wood and even bark of the houses next to them were not peeled off, but they were just chosen to be thick and strong. The wide rooms in all directions were arranged side by side, with their respective lanterns and signs hanging.

Not long after walking far, I heard the crowds of people. A large group of people walked in, holding the horse, pulling the reins and umbrellas and joking, and heading up the stone stairs toward the top. It seemed that the situation was the largest house in the village.

The boy gave them a straw raincoat and a straw hat. At this moment, he was surrounded by a tall man who was extremely intimate. The two walked side by side and said something from time to time, and their faces looked quite similar - "It turns out that these are the two sons of the old man Qin from Kunshan Village!" The Eighth Master understood in his heart: "No wonder he looks so kind-faced, but the two bare-ass boys grew up..."

Suddenly he saw a man at the front of the team, and he felt a sense of dust removal in his every move. He raised his hands or raised his feet, and the smell was full of wide clothes and large sleeves, just like wearing a Taoist robe and long gown on weekdays.

Could it be a Taoist priest?

Thinking of this in my heart, the Supreme Treasure suddenly fell down the straw raincoat and said, "Master, the second young master who was talking to us just now is so strange. Have you seen it?"

"Yeah?" The old man from August was a little surprised when he heard this and asked back, "Are you saying he let us in in the heavy rain? What's so strange about this?" He was still thinking about the man's question in his heart, and answered casually.

"No!" Supreme Treasure explained hurriedly: "I see the shadow of the second young master is very strange - Master, haven't you noticed it? His shadow seems to have a little extra on his shoulder, just like... Well, it's like..." After thinking about it, he continued: "It's like a horn growing!"

"Niujiao?" He suddenly became alert: "Are you talking about the shoulders that look like a lot of niujiao? In the shadow or in the soul? Do you see clearly?"

This matter is much more important than that man, who can care about him?

"See clearly!" Supreme Treasure replied affirmatively: "It's just that there is no soul in the shadow - Master, I can see those things myself! When he gave us a straw raincoat and hat, you didn't pay attention to his appearance. I noticed that one piece suddenly appeared on the shadow, but it immediately shrank back!"

"The shadow is a lot... and then it retracts..." He said to himself, and he was extremely surprised: "If you were to say what you said, the second young master should have something like a soul. In theory, it must be that he is weak and has a pale complexion, but he looks like that but it doesn't look like..."

"But his mother is sick!" Supreme Treasure retorted a little dissatisfied: "Master, I remember you said that this kind of situation can also bring disaster to people!"

"No, right!" He smiled and shook his head: "The ghost will not hide in the shadow of a person, but will only hide in some artifacts, such as jade, scrolls, handkerchiefs and headdresses. On the other hand, those hiding in the shadow will only be evil fates. Will this kind of thing cause other people's illnesses? It's just for him... Ahem, Baoer, are you memorizing the things in the book?"

When the master mentioned the things in the book, Supreme Treasure suddenly panicked, and hesitated and began to defend himself: "No... Master, you said you should learn from one example, so I'll try to see... Hehe, Master, I'm so hungry!"

He immediately changed the topic.

How could Wu Bayue not know what he was thinking, but he would not be willing to blame him if he had to part with the Supreme Treasure within a few days. So he laughed and reached out to scratch his nose gently:

"Forget it, the master won't talk about you this time. I will look back and read the books by myself, find out the chapters and show them for myself - there is an inn in front, let's go eat something first." A brief twist in my mind and added: "Let's not worry about the second young master's affairs, I'm afraid I've made arrangements long ago."

He immediately thought of the man who was walking elegantly - could he have come for this?

Supreme Treasure was naturally well-behaved and clever. He guessed a little from the master's face, so he replied with a smile: "Well, if you say you don't care, we will ignore him!...Master, is it okay for us to eat noodles today?"

"Just eat noodles and eat noodles." August took Supreme Bao to the door of the big house with yellow lanterns, turned around and pulled the reins to let Supreme Bao off the horse, and immediately a waiter greeted him: "Oh! Two, are you still rushing up the mountain in such heavy rain? Please come in and please come in..."

As soon as his eyes fell on the clothes of the two, his face immediately changed: "…what to eat?"
