Zha Gong's evolutionary path

A poorly decorated four-wheeled carriage creaked along the bluestone road; behind the carriage was dragging a prison cage as tall as a person, and the rollers on the bottom of the carriage rubbed harshly along the way.

However, the mixture of these two sounds could not overwhelm a hoarse roar in the cage.A man with a terrifying face and delirious mind kept shaking the railing in the cage, wailing rough and ugly, like a hundred ghosts crying, creepy.

The young man driving the car was not affected by the howling ghosts and wolves behind him at all. Without looking sideways, he drove the carriage straight through the horizontal plaque with the inscription "Rejuvenation Gate", and stopped the carriage in the spacious hall.

In the hall, there were several boys and girls who were dressed exactly like him, and when they saw this, they laughed and surrounded him.

"Senior Brother Little Gou'er, where did you catch this medicine man?"

"The appearance is so terrible, have you used a lot of medicine on him?"

The young man jumped out of the carriage, walked to the side of the cage, patted the cage pole vigorously, and scolded: "Shut up! If you make any noise again, I will show you some color!"

His voice was not loud, but it was surprisingly effective. The medicine man who was howling just now, like a mouse seeing a cat, immediately fell silent and shrank to the other side of the cage away from the young man.

Xiao Gou'er showed a proud face, and said to the group of juniors and sisters: "This guy, it took me a lot of effort to catch him. He can run and jump, and he is as strong as a cow. I used up all the medicine in the gourd before releasing him." But he. He is different from ordinary people, his heart, spleen, stomach and kidney grow in the opposite direction, so it is estimated that he will last longer than ordinary people."

The boys and girls surrounding him showed envious expressions, and said one after another: "Senior brother is still very good. He can catch such a top grade. Master knows that, and he will praise senior brother again."

"Sooner or later, the position of our leader will belong to Senior Brother Little Gou'er!"

The boy listened to the flattery of these little ones, but he didn't stop, just pursed his lips and smiled.He said: "I heard that Master came back a few days ago. Didn't he go down the mountain to look for Senior Brother Xin Wu? Why, no more?"

When those young men heard the word "Xin Wu", they had an extremely weird look on their faces.

You look at me, I look at you, without saying a word for a long time, and finally a slightly older boy snorted and said with a smile: "Master brought that man back together..."

"Oh, where is Senior Brother Xin Wu now?" Little Gou'er asked, "I haven't seen him for many years, and I miss him very much."

When he pretended to be nonchalant and asked this sentence, the dark complexion of the medicine man in the cage behind him moved slightly.

The boy snorted again, with the same weird smile, pushed his playmate next to him, and exchanged an ambiguous look.

It took a while to answer: "Master misses him even more than you. No, since I brought him back, I have been staying in Master's dormitory, full, late, out, and at home—"

Hearing a loud noise, the medicine man in the cage seemed to be holding something, his fists were clenched tightly, his already hideous face was distorted even more, and he was about to rush out of the cage and fall to the ground.

Fortunately, Xiao Gou'er was quick to respond, so he slapped the bottom of the cage with his palm, and shouted: "Did you fill the pot with the medicine? Let's make trouble again! Soak it back in the Gu jar for you!!"

"..." The medicine man twisted his face, and looked coldly at the boy who had just spoken with his upturned white eyes.The young man was startled at first, but then remembered that Yaoren was unconscious, so he plucked up his courage and said, "What are you looking at! Gouging out your eyes!"

As he said, he really rolled up his sleeves and wanted to do it.

Xiao Gou'er said, "Gouging out the eyes, I'll throw them for you when I've used them up."

The young man resentfully said: "Okay, we all know that living medicine is not easy to refine, and it won't ruin your hard work, brother. It's just what are you going to use him to test, brother?"

Xiao Gou'er opened the cage door, grabbed a thick iron chain lying beside the cage, and pulled it hard.The other end of the iron chain was tied around the neck of the medicine man, and the terrifying creature staggered, pulled him out of the cage, and rolled into a ball on the ground.

"Although reincarnation is precious, after all, there is no way to solve it. Even the master who is a refiner has not researched it for 20 years. I have to think carefully. If he is poisoned to death, where can I find another one so unique?" Come differently?"

"That's exactly what senior brother said. Hey, if master hadn't been looking for that person with all his heart, he wouldn't have neglected the resurrection antidote..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted sharply by Xiao Gou'er: "What nonsense are you talking about! Are we disciples supposed to talk about Master's affairs? You keep saying 'that person', how many years before you started your career, Senior Brother Xin Wu! Speak politely to me!"

The young man turned pale from drinking to him, still unconvinced, "Senior Brother Xiaogou, did I say something wrong, everyone in the sect knows that Xin Wu is—"

His companion also chimed in: "That's right, senior brother, not only did that person not accept Master's favor, he also ran away from the master's school without a word. Heart ticking lungs, hang on to be a medicine man?"

"He just relied on his master's doting on him, so he didn't take his master's family seriously!"

Several people were passionate, as if Xin Wu, who was captured by their master by coercion, was the one who defied the world and had an unforgivable crime; no matter how he was treated, he felt that he deserved it.

Xiao Gou'er said helplessly: "Master has Master's considerations, you are not allowed to speculate." He seemed to be unable to find an excuse to defend Xin Wu, so he just asked, "Then where is Master now? Is it in the dormitory?"

"It seems that guy... that Xin Wu took the poison secretly yesterday, and Master found out. Hmph... I heard that the poison is quite strong, and even Master didn't save him."

"If the master is not in the dormitory, he is probably looking for the antidote in the pharmacy."

Xiao Gou'er got the information she wanted, so she took Lin Gongru by the hand, and said, "I'll take the medicine man back to my room first, and none of you are allowed to reveal to anyone else that I brought back the medicine man. Give Master and his elders a big surprise."

Those boys and girls obviously respected him much more than Xin Wu. They nodded repeatedly after hearing the words, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, senior brother, master will be very happy. If the master teaches the senior brother a few more things, then they will have to cover up." Follow the juniors."

Xiao Gou'er smiled and said, "Brothers from the same sect, of course."

Bringing Lin Gongru into her room, Xiao Gou'er turned around and closed the door, letting out a sigh of relief.

"This is my room, there is no one living nearby, you can relax now." Then, he reached out to untie the lock ring around Lin Gongru's neck, and said apologetically, "Sorry, in order to gain trust, you must be locked up .Nowhere is it hurt?"

Lin Gongru's complexion was gloomy, even through the horrible makeup that Xiao Gou'er carefully put on for him, he could still see that his face was livid.

The man tried his best to suppress the boiling anger in his chest, and only asked, "Where is your master's bedroom?"

Little Gou'er Bingxue was smart, and immediately knew what he was thinking, and said in a low voice, "Don't worry about what those kids say, things may not be as you imagined..."

Lin Gongru sneered: "Your animal master, what can't you do?" He couldn't hold back any longer and was about to walk outside.

Xiao Gou'er stepped in front of him and begged him: "Don't be impulsive. If you run out in such a reckless manner, and your actions are exposed, not only will you not be able to save Senior Brother Xin Wu, you and I will be buried together. Calm down and stay in this room." Wait for a while, I'll go check out Master's movements, and we'll have a good discussion when I come back."

Lin Gongru looked at him, the young man looked serious, and he seemed to be more nervous than him, with thin sweat on his forehead.

Originally, Lin Gongru had no choice but to be skeptical about the sudden appearance of this young man; because he had no other way to find this place except for him to introduce Huichunmen.

At that time, he thought that it was a trap, at most he would not be able to save Xin Wu, and put himself into it, anyway, he had already put his own safety aside.

However, when I really entered here and heard those unpleasant comments about Xin Wu, those tentative thoughts were thrown into the sky.

Even if he died thousands of times, he still wanted to rescue Xin Wu from this living hell, and his raging anger was almost uncontrollable.

He tried his best to restrain his emotions for a while, and asked as calmly as possible: "How long will you be back?"

Xiao Gou'er said in a low voice: "I want to find Master, ask about the situation from the side, and come back when I figure it out."

Lin Gongru said: "You suddenly asked him about Xin Wu, wouldn't he suspect you?"

The question was sharp, with a hint of suspicion.

Xiao Gou'er froze for a moment, the boy looked at him with a hint of bitterness in his eyes.

He opened his mouth, wanted to say something, but then paused; then he seemed to have made a great determination, and said very lightly: "Master, he...since brother left without saying goodbye five years ago, he will pay all his attention to brother, Transferred to me...so he probably won't doubt what I said..."

After speaking, it was almost a whisper, and even the boy's ears were slightly pink.

Lin Gongru looked at him in shock, her original conjecture was confirmed, instead of feeling relieved, she just felt more nauseated.

This young man is only young, if five years ago, he would be ten years old at most; that white-haired man, even if his age can't be discerned, he is still a dignified adult, how could he treat such a young child...

Thinking deeper, when he picked up Xin Wu, Xin Wu was only three years old, so these years——

Lin Gongru only felt that the blood in his whole body was about to burst, and his eyes were about to burst, and he wished for a desperate fight to tear the master who killed a thousand swords into thousands of pieces.

Xiao Gouer pursed her lips, and waited for the blood to fade from her face before she spoke softly again: "This time, I told him where my senior brother lives in seclusion. I became suspicious. When the right time comes, I will lure him away, and then you can leave Huichun Gate with Senior Brother Xin Wu."

He confessed all the nasty things between himself and his master, Lin Gongru became less wary of him, and instead felt more sympathetic, he couldn't help asking: "Then what should you do?"

The young man forced a smile: "You don't have to worry about the future, just think about how to rescue the brother." He pushed open the door, and before leaving, he told Lin Gongru, "Don't walk around here. wait me back."

The door closed, and the sound of the boy's footsteps gradually faded away.

Lin Gongru paced back and forth in the room, pacing for about half a cup of tea, feeling really restless.He looked at the bronze mirror in the room, and he had a ghostly look on his face, and he was dressed in rags, even his biological parents couldn't recognize him.

If the white-haired man bumped into him, at most he would be taken to the pharmacy. It was impossible to think that it was the handsome boy he had met in the valley.If you meet other people, just pretend to be deaf and dumb and roar like you did when you came.

It's really not his style to sit obediently and wait for news.Little Gou'er's warning was still ringing in his ears, but Lin Gongru had already sneaked to the back window, unlatched the window, turned over and slipped out.
