The Devil is My White Moonlight
Chapter 42 Seniors
The man's long gray hair was messily knotted, covering half of his face.The remaining half of the face is occupied by a tangled beard.Because he just ate the barbecue discarded by everyone, his bearded and hairy face was covered with sand and grass, and it was still shining with oil.When the few young disciples saw it, their faces showed unbearable expressions.
Gu Qingqiao patted Mu Xiyun's shoulder lightly, "Look at his legs."
Mu Xiyun followed his gaze.When Gu Qingqiao threw the knife just now, they all clearly saw that one of the man's legs was cut off, but at this moment, there was no trace of blood on the pants with the left leg empty.
The disciple who was watching the night just now also noticed something was wrong, and stepped forward to lift up his trouser legs. Only then did everyone realize that this person's knees were actually a pair of wooden legs!
The lower part of the wooden leg is just two wooden sticks, one of which has been cut off for a while, but the part where the wooden leg meets the knee is made very finely. The bones underneath are perfectly joined together, allowing the joints here to move freely.
Judging from the man's actions just now, he must have been a master of light kungfu before he put on the wooden leg, and the person who installed the wooden leg for him also knew this very well, and tried his best to let him exert his kung fu to the maximum.Before this person fell into trouble, he was probably a master.
But now this person didn't have the slightest demeanor of a master, his hands were tied behind his back and he couldn't move, so his eyes showed a fierce look, and he roared like a beast at everyone.
Seeing him pitiful, the three girls took out some dried meat and dry food from their bags and roasted them on the fire.When the smell of food came out, the man no longer stared at the crowd, but only looked at the food in rough clothes, without hiding the greed in his eyes.
After eating some dry food and jerky in the hands of Senior Sister Qingchengshan, and taking another big mouthful of water, the long-legged man finally calmed down, his eyes were still wary.
Deng Xian knelt down and asked, "Who are you? Why are you here?"
The man didn't seem to understand the words, he just kept shaking his head and making a "ho ho" sound from his mouth.
I asked a few more words, but still couldn't communicate at all.
Everyone was disappointed, a young disciple muttered: "Looking at his physical skills, I thought he was a superior man, but I didn't expect him to be a lunatic."
Hearing the word "crazy", the man was startled suddenly, and muttered in his mouth: "Crazy, crazy..."
Suddenly, he suddenly yelled: "Painted face, madman, they are all dead! They are all dead!"
The voice was extremely shrill, and everyone's heart tightened when they heard it, and they all felt uncomfortable.
Several Qingcheng Mountain disciples stepped forward and shouted: "Fucking lunatic, what are you yelling about?"
"Crazy, crazy, they're crazy!" The man struggled crazily and broke free from the bandages that bound his hands, waving his hands non-stop, "They're all dead! They're all dead! There's no one left! There's no one left!" "At the end of the shout, his tone gradually became desolate, and as soon as he slapped the ground, he burst into tears.
The crowd was startled by him, so they had to tie him up and leave him aside.
Mu Xiyun frowned and said suspiciously: "Looking at this person's age, maybe he has something to do with this Yinlong Villa. It's a pity that he speaks inconsequentially, which is unbelievable."
Gu Qingqiao took a look at the lunatic, and pondered: "If you want to know more, you can go to the forest to have a look at tomorrow morning."
Deng Xian continued: "Then let's go and have a look tomorrow." After speaking, he called his brothers and sisters to go back and rest.
The wooden-legged man made a fuss for a long time, probably tired from crying, and fell asleep after a while, still muttering something in a low voice.
Mu Xiyun nodded towards Gu Qingqiao, and the two slowly walked back to the campfire.
After tossing for two hours, it was almost dawn.The two of them didn't want to sleep anymore, so they sat by the fire and meditated until dawn.
Although tossing and tossing for half the night, by the next morning, a group of young people were still full of energy.After hearing Deng Xian's words, everyone became excited again.
A group of people entered the woods like an expedition, and spread out to search.It didn't take much effort to find a hut, which seemed to be the former forest guard's house in Yinlong Villa.When the wooden-legged man saw that everyone was about to enter his room, he struggled and roared.
The man was honest when he woke up in the morning, so Deng Xian untied him, but sent two tall disciples to escort him to follow the team.At this moment when he was struggling, the two disciples were caught off guard and let him break free.The man limped and rushed to the door of the hut, pushed the door and rushed in, but he didn't come out for a long time.
Mu Xiyun, Gu Qingqiao and Deng Xian carefully pushed them away, and saw the man curled up on the bed, holding a piece of clothing in his hands.
It was a winter dress.Or because it has been stored for too long, the color of the material has become dull, but the beautiful powder blue of that year can be vaguely recognized from the folds of the clothes.Snowflakes were densely embroidered with silver thread on the hem of the skirt, which was very bright and gorgeous.The morning sun slanted through the window on the exquisite embroidery, and the fine rays of light were attached to a group of stars like stars, making this dilapidated hut a little fairy-like.The dress had a slender waist and exquisite style, and several people could even imagine how the beautiful woman looked back and smiled when she wore this dress.
The wooden-legged man hugged the female skirt, and his muddy eyes regained some clarity.He caressed the hem of the skirt carefully, as gently as if it was not the fabric, but the delicate skin of his lover.After a long time, a tear rolled down from his eye and fell into the dust beside the wooden leg.
Seeing him like this, everyone was stunned.
Mu Xiyun sighed softly, turned her eyes away, and looked at the other furnishings in the house.
The house is full of shabby furniture, and there are simple bows and spears hanging on the walls. It seems that this man has been hunting for a living when he is sober.There are some wooden sticks piled up in the corner, one end is square and the other end is round, which looks like replaceable wooden legs.
Beneath the wooden legs, a small box poked out a corner.
It was a box of white sandalwood covered with copper, with exquisite patterns carved on the side of the box, even if it was buried in a pile of tatters and sundries, its beauty would not be damaged.
Mu Xiyun took two steps towards the box, and was grabbed by Gu Qingqiao, who waved at him, "Beware of hidden weapons, I'll come."
Mu Xiyun was stopped behind him, a little dumbfounded.In his previous life, he was an immortal teacher who traveled all over the Central Plains, but now he is treated like a child in front of Gu Qingqiao.
Seeing that Gu Qingqiao was already walking towards the box, Mu Xiyun took two steps back and stood between him and the wooden-legged man, in case the other party didn't want him to open the box and violently hurt others.
Fortunately, the wooden-legged man's full attention was on the female skirt at the moment, and he didn't care about others touching his box at all.Gu Qingqiao moved the box to the only table in the room.The lock of the box was just a fake, he pushed the lock and carefully opened the lid.
There is nothing valuable in the box, but some medicines, talismans and other things commonly used by ascetics, but they seem to be very old, so I don't know if they can still be used.
At the bottom of the box, there is a psychic jade slip, which has been split in two and cannot be used anymore.
Gu Qingqiao picked up the jade slips and looked at them together with Mu Xiyun, when a "huh" suddenly came from beside him.
Qin Le entered the room at some point, staring at the jade slip that was split in two, with a very surprised expression. "Isn't this my jade slip?"
As he spoke, he picked up the two halves of the jade and put them together, only to see that on the jade slip, three spears were leaning together, surrounded by a circle of stars and moon formations, which was the round family emblem of the Qin family in Taiyuan.
Could it be that this person is also related to the Qin family in Taiyuan?
Qin Le looked at the lunatic in embarrassment. The marks left by years and suffering on his face were so deep that Qin Le could not recognize them at all.
Mu Xiyun said: "Depending on this person's age, or your grandfather's generation, it's normal that you can't recognize him. Why don't you write a book and ask the elders at home."
Qin Le nodded.Being able to hold the jade slips within the family, this wooden-legged man should have a deep relationship with the Qin family.If it's really an elder of the Qin family who has been homeless for so many years, he should send someone to pick him up.Even if it wasn't from the Qin family, it would be more reassuring to have a clear investigation.
At this time, there was nothing to investigate in the hut. Now that the man was in a familiar place, he was very well-behaved, not shouting or making trouble, just holding the clothes in a daze.
Deng Xian found a former carpenter's apprentice, helped him replace the damaged wooden leg with a new one, left a lot of food, and then left the forest with his brothers and sisters, and returned to Yinlong Villa.
Li Li didn't go into the forest, and stayed in the camp with a few disciples to pack up. Seeing that everyone came out of the forest, he smiled and asked about the situation.
Deng Xian simply explained the situation of the man to him, gave Li Li some money, and asked him to come to the forest every ten days to see if the man still had food.
Gu Qingqiao saw that Li Li promised to be quick, but his eyes were shining brightly, he couldn't help but secretly smiled, and said casually: "Maybe that person is a lost senior from the Xiuxian family, who became stupid because of the injury that year. Crazy. But after all these years, there's nothing of value in his house."
Hearing these words, Li Li's expression changed, Gu Qingqiao noticed everything.He went on to say: "My junior brother knows formations best, and I have set up formations around that person and his hut. If anyone wants to take anything in the house or hurt that person, they will immediately If you touch the formation, you will be struck by lightning and die."
Li Li's expression changed again, and he said repeatedly: "Our Li family village has the most honest and simple folk customs. If the immortals entrust this matter to me, I will definitely not let anyone bully him."
"That's the best!" Gu Qingqiao said with a smile: "We send the message out, and within a month, someone will come to pick him up. Brother Li will have to work hard during this period.
How could Li Li dare to call these immortals brothers and sisters, he immediately waved his hands, saying that he didn't dare to do so, and patted his chest to promise that he would come to visit often.
The group packed their things and went back along the original road. Mu Xiyun walked behind the team and asked Gu Qingqiao in a low voice: "You don't trust that Li Li?"
Gu Qingqiao said leisurely: "That's not true. These small people in the mountains do not live well. I heard that the lunatic is a descendant of the fairy sect. I'm afraid he will covet the things in his hut. I just used you to scare me. he."
Mu Xiyun curled the corners of her mouth, "It's not a threat, it's just two low-level defensive formations."
The two smiled at each other.
Going out of the fork, finally came the moment of parting.
A group of young people were still bluffing just now, but at this time they began to say goodbye.
Everyone talked a lot together again, agreed that Luo Qingwen, who was passing by Baihua City, would be the host, and invited Mu Xiyun to inspect the magic circle, and must go to Qingcheng Mountain when passing by Sichuan, Qin Le also mustered up the courage to invite everyone Go to Qin's house in Taiyuan as a guest.The group finally hit the road and parted ways.
Gu Qingqiao patted Mu Xiyun's shoulder lightly, "Look at his legs."
Mu Xiyun followed his gaze.When Gu Qingqiao threw the knife just now, they all clearly saw that one of the man's legs was cut off, but at this moment, there was no trace of blood on the pants with the left leg empty.
