Rebirth of Beigu Sirius
Chapter 32
Yun Zhuo didn't sleep soundly.
Not only did he fall asleep in the middle of the night, but he also fell asleep very lightly. The dreams in his head came and went like flipping through cartoons, but they were all the same things about him and Situ Lin when they were young: from when they were teenagers, they fart. Dianpidian followed others and chanted "Brother Rin", went to the Lingyun meeting to praise Situ Rin's shameful confession, then went to Luoyang flower viewing tour that year when he lost his soul and was full of regrets, and one night, for himself. The piece of mustard that was spread out to comfort the other party was comparable to poison...
Fragments of memories flashed by in turn, but the details were exceptionally clear, which made Yun Zhuo feel ashamed of his stupidity in his dream.In a drowsy state of mind, while thinking about it in his heart, he secretly prayed that this messy and tormenting "long river of memories" would end soon.
However, since the dream is called a dream, it will not easily change with the will of the dreamer.Although I said "quickly end" in my heart, my flying thoughts were still unmoved. In the end, I went back and forth, and I went back to my childhood. People regret the extraordinary trip to eliminate demons.
In the dream, he was neither notorious nor resurrected, and he still looked like a handsome young man with snow hair, wearing a rather ill-fitting champion robe, and his face was not quite the same as before.He rode a white horse and crossed the river in a sedan chair, but he didn't meet any witches or ghosts. He firmly led the girl in the sedan chair into the wedding hall.But when he saw his father and elder brother sitting in front of the hall, even Bai Musheng rushed over with his family, and even a handful of peanuts were sprinkled on his body by the kid in white who looked like a dumpling with a smile.
In the dream, I greeted the guests back and forth, and the cup in my hand was never empty. I waited until the sun was setting in the west, Shenhua was born, and I was drinking and singing, and then I staggered into the wedding room.
On the brocade bed, the bride's red skirt and green shirt, a veil with tassels on one side to hide her face, Yun Zhuo was poured into the altar so that it was not very clear, half pushed and half was about to go forward to pick up the veil, but the scale hadn't touched the veil yet, but Suddenly he shuddered—he suddenly remembered who the "bride" he was supposed to face when he was exorcising the demon.
At this time, the bride also slowly opened her mouth, and Yun Zhuo's breath stagnated when she heard the familiar voice with a half-smile: "Young Master Yun, what can I teach you?"
I don't know if it was intentional or not, but the person in front of me said this sentence in a low-key manner, it's not unpleasant to taste, and after careful reflection, there is still a bit of soul-stirring meaning.Yun Zhuo, who was holding the weighing rod, threw the stick away with a "clang" as if being pricked by a needle, and tore off the obstructive hijab with one hand.
The person sitting upright on the bed had black hair parted and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and an inexplicably funny and nondescript "Eight Treasure Makeup" was painted on his face.At first glance, it was very vulgar, but the face was pretty, and the pair of red eyes looked at him with a smile that was not a smile. At this moment, it was really reflected by the dim light of the candle.
The light-colored flames were reflected in Yun Zhuo's suddenly dilated pupils, and he felt his heart suddenly "thump", and he didn't know whether he was stunned by this strange situation, or whether he was inexplicably reappeared in the realm of memory Attracted by the person, he was stunned for a moment, and then exclaimed as if he suddenly realized something.
"Brother Rin?!"
The exclamation in the dream turned into a scream in reality, Yun Zhuo opened his eyes sharply, and jumped up from the bed almost at the same time, causing the poor bamboo bed to tremble suddenly——finally, the cold sweat on his back Waking up from an absurd dream.
However, he woke up from the dream, but the lingering aftertaste of the dream still caused his chest to thump, and even his face burned.
How could you have such a dream?
Yun Zhuo patted his face, his mind was still dazed, but the more he thought about the plot in the dream, the more he felt a sense of fear.
——This dream without self-knowledge came uninvited, wouldn't all the arguments in my heart yesterday be counted?And the "pure friendship" that I have maintained with brother Lin for more than ten years, I am afraid that it has really gone further and further.
He struggled to sit up, letting his messy hair rub against his shoulders after a night of sleep, staring at the empty tent in a daze, his emotions gradually became complicated: "Could it be that I Really, brother Rin..."
"Master Rong? Are you sick? Why can't you pay back?"
Unexpectedly, when he was in a daze, there was a cautious knock on the door, mixed with Bai Xiao's greetings, which pulled Yun Zhuo, who was wandering in the sky, out of his absurd thoughts.
He rubbed his eyes and straightened up halfway, and responded in a hoarse voice: "I'm fine, I just had a nightmare. I'll get up later."
After saying that, when he struggled to half open his eyes and looked up, he found that the window was already brightly lit.
After all, the business is at hand, Yun Zhuo secretly screamed that it was not good, and immediately couldn't care about thinking about the ridiculous dream just now, shook his head and jumped out of bed, put on his clothes in twos and threes, and pulled away with a "squeak" Door.
He pulled it so anxiously, the wooden door was blown up by a gust of wind, and immediately shrank a figure in green clothes outside in shock.As expected, Bai Xiao was waiting with folded arms. When he saw that he was about to leave in a hurry, he hurriedly said with concern: "Hey, Mr. Rong, you are..."
"Hey, I'll go to the market to buy something that can be used to make weapons, so as to save time and drag others down!"
Even though he was disturbed by the messy dream all night, Yun Zhuo didn't forget what he said yesterday, he nodded to the boy and went straight downstairs.
But he had just been walking for a while, but an indescribable worry suddenly rose in his heart.
——The Zhuzheng who made me uneasy yesterday, I am afraid that Zhengzheng might also be waiting in that hall at this moment.And I actually had this inexplicable and nasty strange dream after being teased by others, and now I don’t know how to face it, it’s really unbelievable!
The more he thought about it, the worse he became. Yun Zhuo suddenly felt goosebumps on his back, so he shrank his neck and ran back upstairs, pressed Bai Xiao's shoulder and asked, "Hey, ask you Just a matter, where are Lord Mozun and Daoist Duan at the moment?"
The young man thought he had gone far away, but he didn't react when he was slapped suddenly. After a long while, he scratched his head and said, "Daoist Duan went out to practice swords early in the morning. Brother Situ, he should be in the backyard." I found a wicker chair and took a nap in the sun."
"Oh, that's it, that's very good."
Yun Zhuo heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that he didn't need to face to face with the evil star that made him worry so much. Although he felt a little bit undetectable loss in his heart, it was at least an urgent need.Immediately, he also forgot to worry about Situ Lin's important affairs, and thought he was lazy because he still wanted to take a nap.He flipped his clothes up and turned around, then patted Bai Xiao's head, and walked downstairs in a good mood: "I'm leaving."
Unexpectedly, as soon as he saw that he was about to leave, Bai Xiao who was behind hurriedly followed up: "Hey, Mr. Rong, wait a minute, I'm going to do some shopping too, let's go together."
Yun Zhuo heard the words, glanced back symbolically, and then moved on, but did not object in a hurry.After all, this kid defended him yesterday with every word of sincerity, and he was very pleased.That's why he simply "repayed his kindness" once, right to take this young man from Miaojiang around the streets.
Two people, one big and one small, walked out of the inn, walked on the street, and visited the bustling small shops in a short time.
However, perhaps because of the impact of the Wangquan Town incident, the townspeople here seem to have no intention of doing business. The streets are deserted, and there are not many shops that have opened.
"Hey, there are so few medicinal materials in this shop, how can I prepare medicine for traumatic injuries?"
In one of the few drugstores that opened, Bai Xiao looked worriedly at the several packs of medicinal materials spread out on the counter, propped his arms and shook his head, and said, "Could it be that I really have to add two to one to make five, let me prepare it myself. "
"Ouch, young master, just make do with it!"
Hearing this, the boss behind the counter shook his head and said, "Not to mention the inconvenient transportation in our town, just the few flavors you want, the medicinal materials that can only be found in the deep mountains and old forests, look at this land in the Central Plains, but where can you find them? ah?"
"Hey, that's all, it can be said that I used to use the medicinal materials from our Miao land in the past, and now it is not enough for the local customs."
Bai Xiao waved his hands as if giving up on himself, and said while taking out the money: "Then that's it, please boss wrap it up for me."
"What? Did you buy the medicinal materials to your liking?"
As soon as the young man finished speaking, he saw Yun Zhuo coming from outside the shop with a few packages in his hands. After looking at the medicinal materials for a while, he thought to himself: "Hey, you want to prepare the wound medicine yourself? So you still know medical skills Woolen cloth?"
"Hey, as a disciple of Miao Jiang, I learned a few tricks from my master back then. It's okay to treat minor injuries and illnesses. Don't come to me for treating the bones of the living dead."
Bai Xiao shook his head, turned around after paying the money, looked at Yun Zhuo's packages again, and asked curiously: "Hey, Mr. Rong, what did you buy?"
"Oh, what are you talking about? The bottom is wood, the middle is iron parts, and the top is a bag of gunpowder."
After explaining one by one in a calm manner, Yun Zhuo took out a bag of things from his arms, raised his hand and threw it to Bai Xiao, and said with a smile: "As for this bag, you can look at it yourself?"
Hearing this, the young man stretched out his hand to take it, but saw that the oil-paper bag opened a small opening due to a bump, and there were dozens of round beads lying neatly inside, shining brightly—they were the luminous glass beads. .
Unexpectedly, Bai Xiao was stunned when he saw this thing, and after a moment of silence, he dragged Yun Zhuo out of the medicine shop in three or two steps, and asked furtively, "Hiss, Mr. Rong, what are these four things added to?" One piece, you can make a mechanism firearm. Could it be that the mechanism firearm that Lord Qilin said to make a big fuss in Mingsha was really not made by Brother Situ by analogy, but from your hands..."
Yun Zhuo hooked the corners of his lips quietly.
——This kid is really clever, but when he saw these four ingredients, he guessed from the rumors that each was one or two.
He smiled lowly: "If I say yes, how will you treat it?"
The clever boy didn't make a sound.
There was no reply for a while, but Yun Zhuo didn't mind.Anyway, when he enters Wangquan Town and fights with that evil spirit, sooner or later he will be seen through because of his mechanical skills.What's more, he intuitively felt that since this young man from Miaojiang could speak up to defend Lord Sirius, he probably didn't have any malicious intentions towards him. Since this kid would not sell himself, he simply let it go at this moment.
So he skipped over the silent young man from Miaojiang, rolled up his sleeves and took a few raw materials back into his hands. When he opened his mouth, he waved his sleeve again - a lifelike mechanism bee flew low and high from it.
"Buzz-"
Yun Zhuo raised his finger again, but saw the bee with tulle wings and glass eyes flying towards Bai Xiao behind him with fluttering wings.
"This, this is?"
As if stunned by this ingenious skill like a living thing, the young Miaojiang boy's face was filled with all kinds of emotions for a moment yesterday. He seemed to be surprised and stunned, and he looked straight ahead. The exquisite, detailed and lifelike bees even stopped moving.
After a long time, when the mechanism bee finally flew back to the sleeve of the person in front of him, he finally raised his head and looked at Yun Zhuo in surprise, with a trembling voice: "Mr. Xuan, really more than just imitating the clothes..."
"That's right, I know how to perform tricks."
Yun Zhuo nodded calmly, and said again: "Why, does Mr. Bai regret what he said yesterday to defend me?"
"No, no!"
Hearing the words, Bai Xiao quickly shook her head, and said hastily: "It's just that, I just think that you know the tricks, Mr. Rong, why didn't you let me know..."
Upon hearing this, Yun Zhuo was a little amused, and asked back with a smile: "So what if I let you know earlier? Wouldn't it make Situ Ling and Ning You feel that I am a bastard who imitated the heinous crimes of the world?" only?"
Unexpectedly, when Bai Xiao heard these words, she blushed a little anxiously, and almost subconsciously blurted out most of the words like beans poured out of a bamboo tube: "What a heinous crime! Yun Qianxuan knows..."
At this point in the conversation, he suddenly felt something was wrong and lowered his voice, but there was still something in his mouth: "Yun Qianxuan, it's clear, it's clear that he's a good person."
The young boy's voice was not high, and it was deliberately lowered at this moment, but this sentence still reached Yun Zhuo's ears not far away, and his heart skipped a beat when he heard it, it was a bit surprising.
There is a saying that goes, "When a wall falls down, everyone pushes it back". Once a person gets a bad reputation, there will be tens of thousands of people who curse him in this world.
In the past few years, it is not surprising that people scold him very badly.But it's not relative, it's really the first time in my life to speak for him in this situation and feel that he is a good person.
So Yun Zhuo raised his eyebrows, and asked half-believingly, "Everyone in the world counts the crimes of Lord Sirius, but how do you know that he is a good man? Could it be that you knew him back then?"
"No, no! I am from Miaojiang. How could I have anything to do with Wuling Yun's family!"
Bai Xiaohuo waved his hands hastily as if his tail was on fire, and said again: "I just, I just think that many of the so-called 'heroes' in your Central Plains martial arts back then were just like Situ Zihan... Well, then Maybe, maybe, what you call 'unworthy criminals' aren't so bad?"
Originally, it was just a random question, but I didn't expect to get a definite answer, but I didn't want Bai Xiao to come up with such an excuse, so Yun Zhuo couldn't help laughing, and hurriedly laughed: "Pfft, let's not say that the reason is not far-fetched. What kind of enmity is this with Situ Ling? That kid is old-fashioned, let alone say, 'Heroes are nothing more than that'!"
"This……"
Being teased by Yun Zhuo, Bai Xiao also knew that this remark was very untenable, so he scratched his head in embarrassment, but still said firmly: "Anyway, I just know that Mr. Wolf is not a heinous villain. Mechanism is not a heinous sorcery. Mr. Rong, it doesn't hurt to imitate him, just, it's just..."
Yun Zhuo raised his eyebrows: "Just what?"
Looking back at the mechanism bee again, Bai Xiaoxu opened his mouth falsely, but his eyes flickered as if aware of something, and after a moment of hesitation, he said: "No, it's nothing. Situ Zihan likes to preach to anyone caught by a wooden stake." , Mr. Rong, don't mind."
"Okay, okay, I understand the kindness of young master Bai."
Seeing that the young man dodged his words, he had no intention of going any further. Yun Zhuo was not an inquisitive person. He patted the young man on the shoulder when he saw it was good, but rolled his eyes again, and said with a casual joke: "It's just Since you know a secret of mine, I also have to ask you for advice, so it’s not worth the debt.”
"Ugh?"
The little boy was stunned by this question, scratched his head and said, "What does Mr. Rong want to know?"
"Well……"
Yun Zhuo squeezed his chin: "I've always been quite curious. You said you were a disciple of Miaojiang, but why did you flee to Wangquan Town in the Central Plains? Could it be that you suffered some grievance at the teacher's gate?"
"Hey, it turns out that Mr. Rong is curious about this."
Bai Xiao shook his head and said, "It's true that I'm a disciple of Miaojiang, but the reason for fleeing is not because I suffered any grievances. It's because the small faction of Miaojiang I belonged to was destroyed by an internal struggle."
Yun Zhuo was taken aback, and looked up at him: "What? Destroyed?"
Bai Xiao nodded: "Isn't that right, well, it's actually an old-fashioned way to say it. I'm not from Miaojiang, but because my parents were murdered, I fled to Miaojiang to avoid being chased and killed. She was taken in by the elders of the small sect of the 'Yuexuan Sect', changed her name to avoid disaster, and became a disciple of Miaojiang by mistake."
"So you were originally from the Central Plains?"
Yun Zhuo clicked his tongue, vaguely recalling the experience that Li Che had changed his name to avoid disaster in the past: "Then what? Did you hide in that seedling land?"
Bai Xiao sighed: "Oh, it would have been better if that was the case. But who knows that my fate will be ups and downs, and even the smallest sect in the world will have intrigues. An elder in our sect plotted to usurp the throne and attracted a group of surrounding sects who wanted to Assassinated the leader, and the other elders naturally tried their best to protect them. As a result, after a fierce battle, both parties suffered losses. My master died, the usurper died, and the leader died... Yuexuan Sect soon ceased to exist. , as for me, I can only bite the bullet and flee to the Central Plains."
"Well, I didn't know there was such a tragedy behind you."
Unexpectedly, I joked for a while and provoked the child to tell such a twists and turns of his life experience. Yun Zhuo felt a little silent when he heard it, and apologized in a low voice after a few moments of consideration: "I asked too much, I'm sorry."
"Hey, it's okay. Anyway, I've told Situ Zihan and Ning You many times about this experience, so there's nothing to be sad about."
Bai Xiao flicked his arms calmly, and the green gauze sleeves brushed against the silver bell on his wrist, causing the bell to ring crisply.
After finishing speaking, he took another two steps briskly forward, looked back at Yun Zhuo with a smile, and slapped his head suddenly as if thinking of something: "Hey, Mr. Rong, we have finished talking about our secrets and shopping, it's time to go back Alright! Otherwise, Situ Zihan might be talking about us again!"
Seeing that he really didn't feel sad because of this, Yun Zhuo nodded and said kindly: "Well, let's go."
After a while, he entered the door of the inn, and saw Situ Lin, Duan Zhaoying and Situ Ling sitting in front of the wooden table in the lobby, one of them was frowning, the other was bowing his head, and the other was waving his fan thoughtfully.
Seeing the two people entering, Duan Zhaoying hurriedly stood up and said, "Rong Yu, Young Master Bai, what are you doing here? You can tell us to wait."
"Hey, Mr. Rong and I thought that we are idle because we are idle, so we went to buy some dry food and wound medicine, just in case we need it!"
Bai Xiao squinted at those people and smiled, his face returned to the relaxed and easy-going look yesterday, and he apologized with a smile: "I'm sorry for keeping you waiting so long, I'm sorry."
After saying that, he pulled a stool and sat down in front of the table. Yun Zhuo wanted to follow the young man to muddle through, but before he sat down, he suddenly felt a chill in his hands.
——There was a soft touch between the five fingers, and it was Situ Lin who kicked the bridge of his nose and squeezed his hands again, unceremoniously continuing to use people as hand warmers.
It's okay to hold this hand in a normal way, but at this time, he was not clear about his hesitancy and hesitation, and he was held in a ten-finger state by someone.Such an intimate act is particularly inspiring, and the messy dream that was finally left behind last night also came to my heart.For a moment, Yun Zhuo was full of thoughts in his heart, and he was a little bit helpless, and he couldn't utter a word for a while.
"Rong Yu, why do you look so pale, but you didn't sleep well last night?"
Unexpectedly, when he was fidgeting, Duan Zhaoying, who was on the opposite side, saw him bowed his head and said nothing, and said with concern, "Could it be that there is something worrying in my heart?"
"Uh, no no no."
Yu secretly scolded that the Taoist priest had no eyesight, and Yun Zhuo was about to veto it in a hurry, but after all, he was also a guilty conscience, and his eyes involuntarily glanced at Situ Lin who was sitting at the table.
Then I saw that person also turned his eyes to stare at him, the red ghost eyes half-closed, and he was catching his cautious gaze.After a while, the corners of his lips curved slightly again, and while everyone was not looking, he tightly clenched his fingers under the table.
"Cough cough."
The little trick was seen through first, and his wrist was grasped behind by cold fingers. He shuddered violently, and gave Situ Lin an angry look.
He coughed twice to embolden himself, and then he could hold back a sentence: "Brother Situ, the business is important... According to your opinion, when are we going to leave?"
When he said this, Yun Zhuo's eyes dodged, and he still had some lingering fears about what happened yesterday and the chaotic dream this morning.But the "culprit" who was asked was still shaking his fan slowly without knowing it, and after pinching the clasped hands, he pretended to be serious and said: "Mr. Rong, don't worry, we are here." Let's rest for a while, and we can enter the town when noon arrives today, when the yang energy is at its heaviest."
Not only did he fall asleep in the middle of the night, but he also fell asleep very lightly. The dreams in his head came and went like flipping through cartoons, but they were all the same things about him and Situ Lin when they were young: from when they were teenagers, they fart. Dianpidian followed others and chanted "Brother Rin", went to the Lingyun meeting to praise Situ Rin's shameful confession, then went to Luoyang flower viewing tour that year when he lost his soul and was full of regrets, and one night, for himself.

However, since the dream is called a dream, it will not easily change with the will of the dreamer.Although I said "quickly end" in my heart, my flying thoughts were still unmoved. In the end, I went back and forth, and I went back to my childhood. People regret the extraordinary trip to eliminate demons.
In the dream, he was neither notorious nor resurrected, and he still looked like a handsome young man with snow hair, wearing a rather ill-fitting champion robe, and his face was not quite the same as before.He rode a white horse and crossed the river in a sedan chair, but he didn't meet any witches or ghosts. He firmly led the girl in the sedan chair into the wedding hall.But when he saw his father and elder brother sitting in front of the hall, even Bai Musheng rushed over with his family, and even a handful of peanuts were sprinkled on his body by the kid in white who looked like a dumpling with a smile.

I don't know if it was intentional or not, but the person in front of me said this sentence in a low-key manner, it's not unpleasant to taste, and after careful reflection, there is still a bit of soul-stirring meaning.Yun Zhuo, who was holding the weighing rod, threw the stick away with a "clang" as if being pricked by a needle, and tore off the obstructive hijab with one hand.

He rubbed his eyes and straightened up halfway, and responded in a hoarse voice: "I'm fine, I just had a nightmare. I'll get up later."
After saying that, when he struggled to half open his eyes and looked up, he found that the window was already brightly lit.
After all, the business is at hand, Yun Zhuo secretly screamed that it was not good, and immediately couldn't care about thinking about the ridiculous dream just now, shook his head and jumped out of bed, put on his clothes in twos and threes, and pulled away with a "squeak" Door.

Even though he was disturbed by the messy dream all night, Yun Zhuo didn't forget what he said yesterday, he nodded to the boy and went straight downstairs.
But he had just been walking for a while, but an indescribable worry suddenly rose in his heart.
——The Zhuzheng who made me uneasy yesterday, I am afraid that Zhengzheng might also be waiting in that hall at this moment.And I actually had this inexplicable and nasty strange dream after being teased by others, and now I don’t know how to face it, it’s really unbelievable!
The more he thought about it, the worse he became. Yun Zhuo suddenly felt goosebumps on his back, so he shrank his neck and ran back upstairs, pressed Bai Xiao's shoulder and asked, "Hey, ask you Just a matter, where are Lord Mozun and Daoist Duan at the moment?"
The young man thought he had gone far away, but he didn't react when he was slapped suddenly. After a long while, he scratched his head and said, "Daoist Duan went out to practice swords early in the morning. Brother Situ, he should be in the backyard." I found a wicker chair and took a nap in the sun."
"Oh, that's it, that's very good."

"Hey, there are so few medicinal materials in this shop, how can I prepare medicine for traumatic injuries?"
In one of the few drugstores that opened, Bai Xiao looked worriedly at the several packs of medicinal materials spread out on the counter, propped his arms and shook his head, and said, "Could it be that I really have to add two to one to make five, let me prepare it myself. "
"Ouch, young master, just make do with it!"
Hearing this, the boss behind the counter shook his head and said, "Not to mention the inconvenient transportation in our town, just the few flavors you want, the medicinal materials that can only be found in the deep mountains and old forests, look at this land in the Central Plains, but where can you find them? ah?"
"Hey, that's all, it can be said that I used to use the medicinal materials from our Miao land in the past, and now it is not enough for the local customs."
Bai Xiao waved his hands as if giving up on himself, and said while taking out the money: "Then that's it, please boss wrap it up for me."
"What? Did you buy the medicinal materials to your liking?"
As soon as the young man finished speaking, he saw Yun Zhuo coming from outside the shop with a few packages in his hands. After looking at the medicinal materials for a while, he thought to himself: "Hey, you want to prepare the wound medicine yourself? So you still know medical skills Woolen cloth?"
"Hey, as a disciple of Miao Jiang, I learned a few tricks from my master back then. It's okay to treat minor injuries and illnesses. Don't come to me for treating the bones of the living dead."
Bai Xiao shook his head, turned around after paying the money, looked at Yun Zhuo's packages again, and asked curiously: "Hey, Mr. Rong, what did you buy?"
"Oh, what are you talking about? The bottom is wood, the middle is iron parts, and the top is a bag of gunpowder."
After explaining one by one in a calm manner, Yun Zhuo took out a bag of things from his arms, raised his hand and threw it to Bai Xiao, and said with a smile: "As for this bag, you can look at it yourself?"
Hearing this, the young man stretched out his hand to take it, but saw that the oil-paper bag opened a small opening due to a bump, and there were dozens of round beads lying neatly inside, shining brightly—they were the luminous glass beads. .
Unexpectedly, Bai Xiao was stunned when he saw this thing, and after a moment of silence, he dragged Yun Zhuo out of the medicine shop in three or two steps, and asked furtively, "Hiss, Mr. Rong, what are these four things added to?" One piece, you can make a mechanism firearm. Could it be that the mechanism firearm that Lord Qilin said to make a big fuss in Mingsha was really not made by Brother Situ by analogy, but from your hands..."
Yun Zhuo hooked the corners of his lips quietly.
——This kid is really clever, but when he saw these four ingredients, he guessed from the rumors that each was one or two.
He smiled lowly: "If I say yes, how will you treat it?"
The clever boy didn't make a sound.
There was no reply for a while, but Yun Zhuo didn't mind.Anyway, when he enters Wangquan Town and fights with that evil spirit, sooner or later he will be seen through because of his mechanical skills.What's more, he intuitively felt that since this young man from Miaojiang could speak up to defend Lord Sirius, he probably didn't have any malicious intentions towards him. Since this kid would not sell himself, he simply let it go at this moment.
So he skipped over the silent young man from Miaojiang, rolled up his sleeves and took a few raw materials back into his hands. When he opened his mouth, he waved his sleeve again - a lifelike mechanism bee flew low and high from it.
"Buzz-"
Yun Zhuo raised his finger again, but saw the bee with tulle wings and glass eyes flying towards Bai Xiao behind him with fluttering wings.
"This, this is?"
As if stunned by this ingenious skill like a living thing, the young Miaojiang boy's face was filled with all kinds of emotions for a moment yesterday. He seemed to be surprised and stunned, and he looked straight ahead. The exquisite, detailed and lifelike bees even stopped moving.
After a long time, when the mechanism bee finally flew back to the sleeve of the person in front of him, he finally raised his head and looked at Yun Zhuo in surprise, with a trembling voice: "Mr. Xuan, really more than just imitating the clothes..."
"That's right, I know how to perform tricks."
Yun Zhuo nodded calmly, and said again: "Why, does Mr. Bai regret what he said yesterday to defend me?"
"No, no!"
Hearing the words, Bai Xiao quickly shook her head, and said hastily: "It's just that, I just think that you know the tricks, Mr. Rong, why didn't you let me know..."
Upon hearing this, Yun Zhuo was a little amused, and asked back with a smile: "So what if I let you know earlier? Wouldn't it make Situ Ling and Ning You feel that I am a bastard who imitated the heinous crimes of the world?" only?"
Unexpectedly, when Bai Xiao heard these words, she blushed a little anxiously, and almost subconsciously blurted out most of the words like beans poured out of a bamboo tube: "What a heinous crime! Yun Qianxuan knows..."
At this point in the conversation, he suddenly felt something was wrong and lowered his voice, but there was still something in his mouth: "Yun Qianxuan, it's clear, it's clear that he's a good person."
The young boy's voice was not high, and it was deliberately lowered at this moment, but this sentence still reached Yun Zhuo's ears not far away, and his heart skipped a beat when he heard it, it was a bit surprising.
There is a saying that goes, "When a wall falls down, everyone pushes it back". Once a person gets a bad reputation, there will be tens of thousands of people who curse him in this world.
In the past few years, it is not surprising that people scold him very badly.But it's not relative, it's really the first time in my life to speak for him in this situation and feel that he is a good person.
So Yun Zhuo raised his eyebrows, and asked half-believingly, "Everyone in the world counts the crimes of Lord Sirius, but how do you know that he is a good man? Could it be that you knew him back then?"
"No, no! I am from Miaojiang. How could I have anything to do with Wuling Yun's family!"
Bai Xiaohuo waved his hands hastily as if his tail was on fire, and said again: "I just, I just think that many of the so-called 'heroes' in your Central Plains martial arts back then were just like Situ Zihan... Well, then Maybe, maybe, what you call 'unworthy criminals' aren't so bad?"
Originally, it was just a random question, but I didn't expect to get a definite answer, but I didn't want Bai Xiao to come up with such an excuse, so Yun Zhuo couldn't help laughing, and hurriedly laughed: "Pfft, let's not say that the reason is not far-fetched. What kind of enmity is this with Situ Ling? That kid is old-fashioned, let alone say, 'Heroes are nothing more than that'!"
"This……"
Being teased by Yun Zhuo, Bai Xiao also knew that this remark was very untenable, so he scratched his head in embarrassment, but still said firmly: "Anyway, I just know that Mr. Wolf is not a heinous villain. Mechanism is not a heinous sorcery. Mr. Rong, it doesn't hurt to imitate him, just, it's just..."
Yun Zhuo raised his eyebrows: "Just what?"
Looking back at the mechanism bee again, Bai Xiaoxu opened his mouth falsely, but his eyes flickered as if aware of something, and after a moment of hesitation, he said: "No, it's nothing. Situ Zihan likes to preach to anyone caught by a wooden stake." , Mr. Rong, don't mind."
"Okay, okay, I understand the kindness of young master Bai."
Seeing that the young man dodged his words, he had no intention of going any further. Yun Zhuo was not an inquisitive person. He patted the young man on the shoulder when he saw it was good, but rolled his eyes again, and said with a casual joke: "It's just Since you know a secret of mine, I also have to ask you for advice, so it’s not worth the debt.”
"Ugh?"
The little boy was stunned by this question, scratched his head and said, "What does Mr. Rong want to know?"
"Well……"
Yun Zhuo squeezed his chin: "I've always been quite curious. You said you were a disciple of Miaojiang, but why did you flee to Wangquan Town in the Central Plains? Could it be that you suffered some grievance at the teacher's gate?"
"Hey, it turns out that Mr. Rong is curious about this."
Bai Xiao shook his head and said, "It's true that I'm a disciple of Miaojiang, but the reason for fleeing is not because I suffered any grievances. It's because the small faction of Miaojiang I belonged to was destroyed by an internal struggle."
Yun Zhuo was taken aback, and looked up at him: "What? Destroyed?"
Bai Xiao nodded: "Isn't that right, well, it's actually an old-fashioned way to say it. I'm not from Miaojiang, but because my parents were murdered, I fled to Miaojiang to avoid being chased and killed. She was taken in by the elders of the small sect of the 'Yuexuan Sect', changed her name to avoid disaster, and became a disciple of Miaojiang by mistake."
"So you were originally from the Central Plains?"
Yun Zhuo clicked his tongue, vaguely recalling the experience that Li Che had changed his name to avoid disaster in the past: "Then what? Did you hide in that seedling land?"
Bai Xiao sighed: "Oh, it would have been better if that was the case. But who knows that my fate will be ups and downs, and even the smallest sect in the world will have intrigues. An elder in our sect plotted to usurp the throne and attracted a group of surrounding sects who wanted to Assassinated the leader, and the other elders naturally tried their best to protect them. As a result, after a fierce battle, both parties suffered losses. My master died, the usurper died, and the leader died... Yuexuan Sect soon ceased to exist. , as for me, I can only bite the bullet and flee to the Central Plains."
"Well, I didn't know there was such a tragedy behind you."
Unexpectedly, I joked for a while and provoked the child to tell such a twists and turns of his life experience. Yun Zhuo felt a little silent when he heard it, and apologized in a low voice after a few moments of consideration: "I asked too much, I'm sorry."
"Hey, it's okay. Anyway, I've told Situ Zihan and Ning You many times about this experience, so there's nothing to be sad about."
Bai Xiao flicked his arms calmly, and the green gauze sleeves brushed against the silver bell on his wrist, causing the bell to ring crisply.
After finishing speaking, he took another two steps briskly forward, looked back at Yun Zhuo with a smile, and slapped his head suddenly as if thinking of something: "Hey, Mr. Rong, we have finished talking about our secrets and shopping, it's time to go back Alright! Otherwise, Situ Zihan might be talking about us again!"
Seeing that he really didn't feel sad because of this, Yun Zhuo nodded and said kindly: "Well, let's go."
After a while, he entered the door of the inn, and saw Situ Lin, Duan Zhaoying and Situ Ling sitting in front of the wooden table in the lobby, one of them was frowning, the other was bowing his head, and the other was waving his fan thoughtfully.
Seeing the two people entering, Duan Zhaoying hurriedly stood up and said, "Rong Yu, Young Master Bai, what are you doing here? You can tell us to wait."
"Hey, Mr. Rong and I thought that we are idle because we are idle, so we went to buy some dry food and wound medicine, just in case we need it!"
Bai Xiao squinted at those people and smiled, his face returned to the relaxed and easy-going look yesterday, and he apologized with a smile: "I'm sorry for keeping you waiting so long, I'm sorry."
After saying that, he pulled a stool and sat down in front of the table. Yun Zhuo wanted to follow the young man to muddle through, but before he sat down, he suddenly felt a chill in his hands.
——There was a soft touch between the five fingers, and it was Situ Lin who kicked the bridge of his nose and squeezed his hands again, unceremoniously continuing to use people as hand warmers.
It's okay to hold this hand in a normal way, but at this time, he was not clear about his hesitancy and hesitation, and he was held in a ten-finger state by someone.Such an intimate act is particularly inspiring, and the messy dream that was finally left behind last night also came to my heart.For a moment, Yun Zhuo was full of thoughts in his heart, and he was a little bit helpless, and he couldn't utter a word for a while.
"Rong Yu, why do you look so pale, but you didn't sleep well last night?"
Unexpectedly, when he was fidgeting, Duan Zhaoying, who was on the opposite side, saw him bowed his head and said nothing, and said with concern, "Could it be that there is something worrying in my heart?"
"Uh, no no no."
Yu secretly scolded that the Taoist priest had no eyesight, and Yun Zhuo was about to veto it in a hurry, but after all, he was also a guilty conscience, and his eyes involuntarily glanced at Situ Lin who was sitting at the table.
Then I saw that person also turned his eyes to stare at him, the red ghost eyes half-closed, and he was catching his cautious gaze.After a while, the corners of his lips curved slightly again, and while everyone was not looking, he tightly clenched his fingers under the table.
"Cough cough."
The little trick was seen through first, and his wrist was grasped behind by cold fingers. He shuddered violently, and gave Situ Lin an angry look.
He coughed twice to embolden himself, and then he could hold back a sentence: "Brother Situ, the business is important... According to your opinion, when are we going to leave?"
When he said this, Yun Zhuo's eyes dodged, and he still had some lingering fears about what happened yesterday and the chaotic dream this morning.But the "culprit" who was asked was still shaking his fan slowly without knowing it, and after pinching the clasped hands, he pretended to be serious and said: "Mr. Rong, don't worry, we are here." Let's rest for a while, and we can enter the town when noon arrives today, when the yang energy is at its heaviest."
