The monks gathered together, without speaking or moving, just in a daze in the drizzle.
Among them there were some men in black robes with deep hats that blocked everyone's appearance.
But the atmosphere between them was a bit dull. There was a huge unexpanded net on the ground, which was obviously the net used to trap Xia Shang and others.
In the rain, there was nothing special about the giant net when it was folded up, but only they themselves knew that this net was their trump card for besieging martial arts masters.
Under this giant net, no less than a hundred warriors died, including many masters of the Peiyuan Realm.
But today they actually witnessed someone break through the giant net on their own, and he broke through head-on, and he brought two people with him!
This was almost impossible for them, but today they actually discovered it.
How powerful is that woman?
And how do you repay your superiors at this time?
This is the problem faced by the people in black robes.
"What should we do now? Tianluo has actually been destroyed. The superiors know that none of us will end well."
"This can't be our fault. Such a master was not mentioned in the intelligence."
"This is your own idea. Who knows whether Master Fox Fairy will give you a chance to explain."
"Of course I know, but what should we do now that it has happened? If we don't get the antidote, we will all become like these monks!"
"There is no other way. Things have already happened. Any concealment will make the matter more serious. After all, the mysterious master is an unplanned figure. If Lord Fox Fairy is willing to listen to our explanation, maybe we still have a glimmer of hope. But if there is
If we have other thoughts, we will definitely die."
"How to explain? Could it be said that a master can break through Tianluo when he appears with two people? Will Lord Fox Fairy believe it?"
"Don't mention those two people. Just say that there was a master who broke through Tianluo."
"Well...that's all it can do."
"Now let's continue to monitor that person in order to make amends."
"By the way, where has that person gone now? After being rescued by that master, that person disappeared."
"No matter where he goes, he will eventually return to the inn. I think next time Master Fox Fairy takes action personally, this person will not be so lucky."
…
The rain is still falling and has no intention of stopping.
The continuous rain made the sky in Chengdu sink earlier. The heavy clouds blocked the dusk, and it was almost dark before I knew it.
Xia Shang took A Lan around for a long time, saying he wanted a residential house for his ancestors, but he couldn't find a suitable one for a long time.
It was Xia Shang's excuse that he didn't find anything suitable. At least Ah Lan didn't find anything inappropriate. He always felt that Xia Shang was deliberately taking a detour.
A Lan's feeling was correct, Xia Shang was indeed taking a detour on purpose.
Because after coming out of Yuelongmen, Xia Shang felt that someone was following him.
These are extraordinary times, and Xia Shang is very cautious, so he easily discovered that he was being followed.
At first, Xia Shang was worried. If he met a master, Chunjiao should still be discussing with Zhou Jianren, and obviously he would not show up to protect him, so it would be a bit troublesome.
But later, Xia Shang gradually discovered that the people following him did not seem to be much of a threat, at least they did not feel that they had any fighting capacity.
But that person was very persistent, so persistent that Xia Shang even had a headache.
Xia Shang followed him around for nearly two hours, but the man was still following him.
It's no wonder that Xia Shang couldn't get rid of him. First of all, Xia Shang didn't know martial arts, and his speed could be said to be evenly matched with that of the person he was following.
The second is that the person following him is very smart. Normally Xia Shang can throw him away with just a little trickery, but this time even if Xia Shang is clever enough, the other party can see through it. Although sometimes he will be thrown away, but
But he has always been able to keep up with Xia Shang.
Xia Shang really had no choice but to resort to Qimen Dunjia in the end.
Xia Shang circled around a small residential complex. Before he circled around, he would make some arrangements in one place. It took him a full hour to complete a Qimen Dunjia Formation.
It was thanks to this Qimen Dunjia Formation that he was able to trap the man for a moment, and then Xia Shang managed to escape.
A-Lan didn't notice anything, but she felt that the route Xia Shang took along the way was very strange. After Xia Shang gradually returned to normal, A-Lan inexplicably found that her brother Xia was sweating profusely.
"Brother Xia, what's wrong with you?"
Xia Shang smiled: "Aren't you tired after walking for so long?"
Alan also wiped his sweat: "I'm a little tired, but why did you have to walk for so long?"
Xia Shang muttered in a low voice: "I'm so stupid. If I encounter a piece of brown sugar, I can't shake it off!"
"Ah?" Alan didn't hear clearly.
"Okay, okay, I think the residential houses in the next place must be good."
With that said, Xia Shang pulled A Lan and quickened his pace.
Really not wanting to leave, Xia Shang walked across two streets and randomly found a house and rented half of the yard.
The owners of the courtyard were an old couple, both nearly seventy. They heard that their son had gone to the capital and had not come back, so they had a few rooms vacant, which Xia Shang rented just as they needed them.
The yard is very simple. There is a stone mill inside. There is a small piece of fertile soil inside and outside the fence. I grow a few vegetables and raise some chickens and ducks. I built a shed to close it. The well is shared with other families.
The well water was very sweet and delicious. A Lan said it tasted like water from the Miao people, so he drank a lot of it.
The old woman was more enthusiastic than the old man. Seeing that Xia and Shang wanted to drink water, she brought a pot of boiled water.
At this time Xia Shang and A Lan were cleaning up the house.
The house is also very ordinary, with everything you need. The furniture and bedding are almost all new, but they are covered with a layer of dust.
"You two, you...are you husband and wife?"
"No, we are brother and sister."
"Oh...it doesn't look like much. But it's just right. There are two rooms, so it won't be inconvenient for you. This is boiled water for you to drink."
Xia Shang turned around and said thanks, looking at the house with some confusion: "Mother-in-law, these things are all new, why don't you live in them?"
"The wedding room I prepared with my baby, it turned out that I have settled in the capital and rarely come back."
"It's good to be able to settle down in the capital."
"Everything is good, everything is good. It's not good if you don't have a wife."
As she said this, the old lady was a little angry, stamped her feet, and sighed.
Xia Shang really didn't know how to answer this, so he smiled awkwardly.
The old woman looked at Xia Shang a few more times, put down the kettle and left.
After a brief tidying up, Xia Shang also felt thirsty and was going to drink water.
When I went to pick up the kettle, I found that the kettle was empty.
Xia Shang was stunned, wondering why the water that the old woman had just brought was empty?
Could it be that what she was carrying was an empty kettle?
When I looked again, I found that A Lan on the side was holding a large water cup and drinking gurglingly. His stomach was swollen and he didn’t know how much he drank! (To be continued)
