Chapter 35 Meeting on a narrow road

When the eight deducers walked through the mountains and forests and approached the county, Yu Xing had already chatted with the shadow puppet master in the earthen building for a round trip.
Many folk intangible cultural heritages have reached the point of life and death. Due to the serious asymmetry between the efforts and benefits spent, young people who are willing to continue to inherit their skills are gradually disappearing.
It was because Yu Xing saw this that he got the opportunity to inquire about the news from the master.
He did not feel the ghost spirit from the earthen building, and his few little apprentices were also normal humans. From this, it is speculated that the master is also human, and it is enough to get along with each other according to human thinking.
The first floor of the earthen building is a simple living room, which looks like a living room in the old era. Two wide chairs are placed on the left and right of the square wooden table. There are calligraphy and paintings of unknown age hanging on the wall behind them, and couplets are also pasted on the load-bearing columns on both sides.
Although it is simple, compared to other parts of the county, it is already a rare solemn arrangement, and it does not even have the characteristics of ethnic minorities, completely showing the Chinese style.
Even if there is no opera troupe, the origin of this building has to be questioned.
What is the reason why such a building is added to an ethnic minority tribe?
The history here... must be related to the copy.
At this time, Yu Xing and the master were sitting on both sides of the main table. Zhao Yijiu refused the seat next to him and stood beside Yu Xing. With the other party's hint, he relaxed his body, and his hips were pressed against the back of the chair, giving him some of the loose temperament of a school student.
Yu Xing talked, and he listened.
The conversation was not difficult to understand. When Yu Xing started a conversation, the master readily agreed to share some knowledge about shadow plays and the experiences of the troupe in recent years with them.
Zhao Yijiu listened and looked at the master.
This old man is probably over 60 years old, lean and thin, his eyes are already a little cloudy, and his lifespan is obviously not long, but his spirits are pretty good, especially when it comes to his career that has accompanied him throughout his life, his mood is very high.
His hands were covered with thick calluses, a little hunchback, wearing a very traditional double-breasted jacket and blue cloth clothes, and wearing a pair of cloth shoes under his feet.
It is rare for people who still maintain this kind of dress in modern times, but Zhao Yijiu can be sure that this master is not a paranoid person. At least several young apprentices have not been forced by the master to wear clothes that are also of the same age.
"...I'm still very pleased that you can promote it with your heart." The master took a sip of the tea made by his eldest apprentice and asked with a smile, "There are not many young people who can calm down and learn about shadow puppets these days."
Yu Xing nodded shamelessly: "Yes, I and Zhao are the only ones who do this topic in our grade, and no one else wants to be with us."
The master was interested: "What is your favorite play?"
Like other dramas, shadow puppetry also has many classic dramas, and people who really like to watch can say a few names.
Zhao Yijiu was silent.
I was still very excited about chatting in the last second, but it would be quite embarrassing if it was exposed the next second...
Unexpectedly, Yu Xing was calm and calm and said the name of a play, and even commented on the emotions expressed in it. Although the master did not fully agree with it, he was already very pleased and took the initiative to ask his eldest apprentice to add another tea.
The topic behind was quietly transferred to a longer era by Yu Xing. Time passed by little by little until the eldest disciple had to interrupt: "Master, the performance time is coming, we have to go out."
The discussion between the master and the graduate student came to an end.
Yu Xing and Zhao Yijiu stood up and said goodbye. After walking out of the earth building for a distance, Zhao Yijiu asked: "Have you watched the shadow puppet?"
"I've seen it." Yu Xing said naturally, "I saw a lot of things when I was a child, especially related to various dramas... At that time, the elders at home liked to watch it."
When Yu Xing was a child, Zhao Yijiu's thoughts floated for a moment. He really couldn't imagine what the child version of Yu Xing would look like.
However, how many years have it been? Yu Xing’s memory is so good.
The next second, Yu Xing personally broke the impression of a good memory: "Of course, so long has passed, I can't remember the shadow puppets I have watched. It was just that when I was flipping through miscellaneous items on the third floor, I saw several handwritten scripts and randomly remembered some of the plots in it."
Zhao Yijiu: “…”
He asked with a sloppy face: "It's almost 7:30, will we go to see the show?"
"I won't go anymore. I've asked what I should ask. The key to entering the copy is not the troupe. They are just a reminder." Yu Xing walked in front and suddenly stopped.
The sour and the county are not big, and in addition to the enthusiastic villagers, outsiders are also easy to meet.
For example, now, a few young people who had not seen in the village before happened to meet them head-on, and there was an acquaintance between them - Zhao Ruru.
Zhao Ruru blinked at him immediately. The window of his soul was filled with desire to survive, and his eyes were full of "I am an undercover agent, I am from your side."
One, two, three, four, plus Zhao Ruru, there are four people. Thinking of Zhao Mou's previous information, it is not difficult to guess who the other three are.
A trace of coldness flashed in Yu Xing's eyes.
These two men and one woman are the people sent by the Zhao family this time. They are also peers who bullied Zhao Yijiu, and they are also beneficiaries of using Zhao Yijiu to drive Zhao Mou to do things for the family.
But the people on the other side seemed to have no idea that Yu Xing was naturally disliked by them, and they came over enthusiastically. The woman walked up to Yu Xing, and didn't even look at Zhao Yijiu, and said with a smile: "Hello, Captain Breaking Mirror Yu Xing? I have long admired Daming. You may have heard of me, I am Zhao Dongxue."
She introduced several companions by the way: "Zhao Zhan, Zhao Huaisheng, Zhao Ruru."
As the younger generation whom our family has been fully cultivating, they are also star performers and have great strength, so naturally they feel that Yu Xing should have paid attention to them.
Zhao Dongxue stretched out a hand and shook hands: "The Zhao family guessed that you would come too, so they specially asked me to have a good relationship with you~ I hope we can cooperate friendlyly in the dungeon?"
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yu Xing put both hands in his pockets of his clothes, lowered his eyes and looked at the hands that reached in front of him, and remained indifferent.
Zhao Dongxue didn't take his hand back, and the smile on her face did not change at all. She continued: "We are destined to be together. You and Ru Ru have entered the death parallel before. I think your cooperation is very pleasant and your relationship is very good."
"It's always good for multiple friends in the dungeon, what do you think?"
Yu Xing laughed when he heard this.
He finally took out his hand, but he didn't want to shake hands, but grabbed the other party's neck with lightning speed. No one expected this change. Zhao Zhan and Zhao Huaisheng, who were watching the show, changed their faces suddenly and they hurried forward to pull them up.
But without using abilities and props, no one pulled Yu Xing. His power was like an iron plier, which quickly changed Zhao Dongxue's face and gradually suffocated.
Zhao Ruru performed on the spot with nothing to do with him. Zhao Yijiu's eyes were extremely cold. Seeing Yu Xing taking action, Ji Killing was summoned out and held in his hand.
"You little mouth is pretty good." Yu Xing curled a dangerous curve in the corner of his mouth, "But your eyes don't seem to work very well. There is someone next to me, so you don't think you can't see it?"
"Brother Jiu is now a particularly important member of our Broken Mirror. Why? What does it mean to not say hello when you see it?"
"You still think that I like to stay at the forefront of doing things like Zhao Mou. No matter how you act behind the scenes, you will also give you some face on the surface? What a fool. It seems that your Zhao family has not investigated my personality clearly."
"I don't have any rules to not attack women."
The faint tone was filled with violence. Zhao Dongxue gritted her teeth. The suffocation made her eyes turn black. She felt that if she didn't break free, this crazy man would really strangle her to death.
A dagger appeared in her hand and stabbed it directly into the back of Yu Xing's hand. Zhao Yijiu's eyes flashed dark red, and he was about to assassinate Zhao Dongxue's eyebrows.
Yu Xing let go of his hand and gently held Zhao Yijiu's wrist, preventing him from taking a life-threatening blow.
"Ha..." The dagger fell into vain, but he also gained freedom of breathing. Zhao Dongxue breathed heavily, his lips trembling uncontrollably. In addition to fear, he also had a deep confusion in his eyes when he looked at Yu Xing.
Who said that the Zhao family did not investigate Yu Xing’s personality?
Whether from the live broadcast replay or the limited contact in reality, Yu Xing has never been so direct with anyone!
And now, just because she didn't say hello to Zhao Yijiu, she directly cut off all the possibility of maintaining a illusion of friendship with the Zhao family and attacked her?
She glanced at Zhao Yijiu in a vague way, and happened to meet the other person's eyes.
She was creepy.
The other party was gloomy but not at all in his youth. His eyes, who were not interested in anything, changed. The eyes of his eyes at her were filled with disgust and murderous aura.
But it was obvious that it was not the case just now.
Is it because...she used a dagger to fight back? Hey! She is self-defense!
The woman who was pushed out ate the turtle. Zhao Huaisheng, who was standing beside him, finally spoke up and stood up with a smile: "It's offended. It seems that Broken Mirror has a lot of opinions about the Zhao family."
Yu Xing sneered: "You must let your companions verify such an obvious thing. You are really not a thing."
Zhao Huaisheng: “…”
Although he didn't say anything, Zhao Zhan was scolded: "..."
That's right, although Zhao Dongxue has always taken the initiative to communicate with other forces, it does not mean that Zhao Dongxue is the person in charge of the Zhao family. On the contrary, her status is not high among the few people and she was introduced to take on the matter.
At this time, he was pointed at the nose and scolded, Zhao Huaisheng also laughed and pointedly turned his eyes to Zhao Yijiu.
"I'm sorry, Yijiu, because it's a family, we didn't think about saying hello to you for a while. You probably wouldn't blame us, right?"
When Zhao Yijiu heard the word "Family", she did not show a disgusting expression, but looked at him like he was looking at dirty things. Yu Xing's clear attitude gave him a signal that he didn't have to tolerate: "Trump."
Both of them were so disrespectful that Zhao Huaisheng's smile disappeared.
Before he spoke again, Yu Xingyouyou reminded: "I advise you not to say anything nonsense to say hello to Zhao Mou. I hope you can realize earlier that in Zhao Mou's eyes, you are also trash."
"He has no handle in your hands now. What attitude should he contact him and contact the broken mirror-" Yu Xing walked away, and his last sentence swept into the eardrums of several people in the wind, "Think about it clearly."
Zhao Yijiu took back the killing, and when he passed by them, he showed a sneer. For the first time, he failed to restrain the fierce aura of a ghost in front of these people.
The two people's backs became farther and farther away, and the expressions of the Zhao family gradually became colder. Although they did not lose their composure, they were obviously very angry and became more afraid.
After all, an opponent who focuses on image is essentially different from a mad dog.
