In fact, Poison Peony's proposal is very dangerous. After all, Lao Mao has just killed Xu Longxiang, and Dahuang and I are rushing to wipe out the Xu family's stronghold. Although Poison Peony appears to ignore past grudges,
She wants to win over us, but who knows what she is thinking secretly and whether she is a smiling tiger?
Maybe Poison Peony will lead us into a trap that has already been laid with many traps, and directly execute the three of us on the spot?
Thinking of this, I really hesitated. When I looked back at Dahuang, I saw Dahuang winking at me, obviously not trusting this poisonous peony.
But at this moment, the old cat suddenly said: "I'll go with you."
I looked at the old cat in shock. The old cat today didn't look like an old cat at all.
The old cat in the past would never be so irrational, but today the old cat suddenly became very impulsive. I can understand that this is the only chance to meet his father, and I also know that he wants to see his father. Maybe this is also the case.
It was only this time, but no matter what, Lao Mao's decision was a little abrupt.
"Old Cat, why don't you think about it first?" I asked quickly.
Old Mao shook his head, looked at Dahuang and me, and said, "You two don't want to go. I'll go by myself. You go wait for me outside. I believe in the integrity of Du Mudan and the Xu family."
After hearing this, Poison Peony nodded slightly and said, "I won't let you down."
Of course Dahuang and I couldn't let Old Cat go up alone so easily. The two of us shook our heads quickly and said: "No, Old Cat, we will never let you go alone. If you want to go, let's go together!"
But the old cat still shook his head and said: "No, otherwise I will go, or none of us will go."
I looked at the old cat and knew that he was not joking. He did this because he did not want us to be in any danger, and he did not want to be implicated because of his personal affairs.
Old Cat also understands that we know his character. If he says this, the result of our insistence on going is that no one will go. This is Old Cat. Although he is occasionally emotional, most of the time he is still rational and scary.
I couldn't defeat him at all, and Dahuang also knew the characteristics of the old cat. Dahuang and I looked at each other and nodded at the same time.
I was still conquered by the old cat's stubbornness. I looked up at Poison Peony and asked, "How long does it take to get back and forth from here to the old cat's father?"
Poison Mudan closed her eyes and calculated, and said: "In fact, it's pretty fast. I should be able to come back before dawn, provided that the old cat doesn't stay there for too long."
I looked at the old cat and said: "Old cat, Dahuang and I will wait here until dawn. If you don't come back at dawn, we will find you even if we turn the entire Xu family upside down."
The old cat smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will definitely come back. We are an iron triangle, and no one will be missing."
After hearing our conversation, Poison Mudan curled her lips helplessly, with a hint of ridicule on her cold face, and said: "Don't worry, you two, the ability to count old cats is the worst among the three of you. Even if we have to
If I kill you, I will definitely kill both of you first, so you are more dangerous than the old cat here, so take care of yourself, right?"
With that said, Poison Peony walked towards the distance with an almost perfect figure, Lao Mao followed closely behind, and Xu Yingyang walked at the end to hold the line.
Da Huang and I watched Poison Peony go. I sighed softly and asked, "Da Huang, what do you think?"
"I think... it's quite perky, more perky than a twenty-year-old..." What Dahuang said was a bit incomprehensible.
"What the hell, Dahuang, what are you talking about?" I was confused.
"It's not Poison Peony's butt... butt... eh? Lin Yang, why haven't we seen each other for a month? You have become a bad boy. Have you learned to trick me?" Dahuang looked at me with an angry face.
I helplessly spread my hands and said: "Who tricked you? I'm obviously asking you what you think of Lao Mao's trip. Is it some trick played by that woman named Du Mudan? Is there any danger for the two of us sitting here?"
We won't encounter the evil ghosts of the Xu family coming to surround us. Who told you to talk about those useless things... A pair of thieves' eyes will know how to look around."
Dahuang was criticized by me, but he didn't refute. Instead, he just smiled like an innocent Dahuang dog.
I helplessly spread my hands, then sat down, looking at the boundless darkness in the distance, wondering whether the old cat was really taken to see his father by Poison Mudan, and also wondering why Yuan Qingjiang and his mysterious organization had to
I can't get along with the evil ghosts in Sijiu City.
What is the reason? When was the grudge? Is it related to the underground palace? Is it related to Yao Guangxiao?
Could all of this be the catastrophe my grandfather mentioned?
Thinking of this, I quickly asked: "Dahuang, where is the crazy senior? Is he still living at my grandpa's house?"
Dahuang nodded and said: "Yes, I understand this eighth sword much faster than my master. He has no experience in becoming a ghost, so he is not good at controlling Qi. Fortunately, your grandfather can only peek
Tian Zhi is also good at controlling Qi, and can give him a lot of guidance. I was able to master the eighth sword this time, thanks to your grandfather’s knowledge."
It suddenly dawned on me that my grandfather was still a qigong master. No wonder he was so good at hiding with Qi that we couldn't find him within ten steps.
The crazy Taoist senior has not become a powerful ghost like Da Huang, and his understanding of Qi is quite limited, so it is no wonder that he cannot practice the eighth sword. Thinking of this, I smiled and said to Da Huang: "Then you, kid, are you transcending now?"
Are you a master?"
Dahuang chuckled and said: "That's right, as the saying goes, a young man is better than a good man!"
When I thought of the crazy Taoist's unwilling expression and the secret joy in his heart, a smile appeared on the corner of my mouth. The master and the disciple were really a perfect match, and they were really happy together.
Of course, neither Dahuang nor I realized that day that the success of Dahuang’s Eighth Sword was not only a great breakthrough for him, but also a milestone event in the entire supernatural world at that time. Starting from the advent of the Eighth Sword
, the Yin people before and after almost lived in two worlds, and Dahuang was the first great master of this new world.
The waiting time is always long. I almost stare at the numbers on the watch jumping forward one by one, and they are still in seconds.
Finally, it was around five o'clock in the morning, but there was still no sign of the old cat.
I felt more and more unsure. I looked back at Dahuang and asked, "Dahuang, what's wrong? How about we go find the old cat? Could it be that he fell into the Xu family's trick?"
Dahuang shook his head and said: "I don't think so. Poisonous Peony is right. If they wanted to kill the old cat, they would have killed him long ago. Besides, the old cat's little ability is not worth mentioning. Why bother to kill him with so much effort? It's better to kill him directly."
Come and kill us."
I curled my lips and said, "How dare you despise the old cat so much? Be careful and I will report him when he comes back."
Dahuang quickly begged: "Lin Yang, you are so upright, you will definitely not do such a thing, right?"
I smiled, but I was never in a joking mood. When the old cat didn't come back for a moment, I became worried.
About half an hour later, suddenly there was a sound of footsteps in the distance, which should be the footsteps of the old cat.
"Old cat?!" I asked nervously, and quickly sat up from the stool. Dahuang behind me also stood up with me, heading towards the direction where the footsteps came from.
Because the light was too dark, we only saw a vague outline, which looked like the shape of an old cat. However, at this moment, the figure of the old cat suddenly stopped. Then I saw his arm move, and then "pop"
There was a sound, and I saw his face light up.
That was the old cat, indeed the old cat. He was lighting a cigarette with his head down.
After lighting the cigarette, the old cat slowly waved towards us, then took a puff of cigarette and walked towards us.
That was the old cat, the real old cat. He was the only one who came back safely.
Dahuang and I greeted him, and the three of us were finally reunited.
