Chapter 174(1/2)
There was no one in Mu Dai's room, and similarly, there was no one in Meihua Jiuniang's room, with only an empty wheelchair left in the room, and the brocade cover was placed on the armrest.
Luo Ren's throat was dry, his temples were pounding, trying hard to calm himself down, but his mind was still in chaos. Cao Yanhua was at a loss, holding the rose, and handing it over, and it was not right if he didn't hand it over.
Zheng Mingshan rushed over when he heard the movement, his face looked ugly.
Although the two people in front of me were apprentices who had just been taken in, and the other was the "boyfriend" of Kiyo whom the master nodded and recognized, they were all new outsiders. What qualifications and reasons do they have to break into the master's room?
Seeing that Luo Ren had no intention of speaking, Cao Yanhua swallowed his saliva and hurriedly wanted to explain to Zheng Mingshan.
"What I mean by my little brother Luo is that it seems that he has an opponent. This flower...the flower is proof. The flower is in my little master's room, and the little master and the grand master are gone."
The advantage of smart people is that they can understand what they say once they hear it. In addition to understanding it, they also understand the complex relationships behind it.
Luo Ren has an opponent - the person's logo is probably carrying a rose with him - the person has arrived and put the rose in Mu Dai's room - Mu Dai and his master are gone.
Zheng Mingshan took the rose, smelled it, sniffed it, and threw it absent-mindedly to the side.
He said, "Is it okay? I'll go out when it's okay. Master doesn't like outsiders entering her room."
Luo Ren tried his best to calm himself down: "Senior Brother, something might have happened to Mu Dayi and Master."
Zheng Mingshan stared at him, finally shrugging, very impatient.
"I don't know what role your opponent is, but I remind you that my master Meihua Jiuniang is really a character. I can't even pass thirty moves under her, let alone she is with Kiyo."
Can anyone in this world control Meihua Jiuniang and Muyo at the same time? Zheng Mingshan doesn't think so.
Luo Ren stood still: "Mu Dayi and Master may have something to do, senior brother, I need your help."
How come this bastard doesn't make sense?
Zheng Mingshan had no choice but to point to the house.
"Look at it yourself, are there any signs of fighting?"
"But the master is not in the wheelchair."
Zheng Mingshan laughed: "Who stipulated that she must be in a wheelchair? Luo Ren, my master has been disabled for more than 60 years. Do you think she can't learn to use crutches or walk like prosthetics for so long?"
Luo Ren was stunned: What Zheng Mingshan meant, did Plum Blossom Jiu Niang go out by herself?
Zheng Mingshan was too lazy to talk to him anymore, so he walked straight to the bed of Meihua Jiuniang. It was also a Hui-style full-top bed, much larger than the one in Mu Dai. Zheng Mingshan reached out and grabbed the fine wooden board carved on the right wall, and pulled it away with force.
Said to Luo Ren: "Look at it for yourself."
Luo Ren walked over.
I understand, this bed is placed against the wall, and the large full-top bed is equivalent to making a wooden cabinet around the bed. However, in this case, there was a short and narrow path at the original wooden cabinet, and at the end was a narrow door on the wall.
There are doors in front and behind Meihua Jiuniang's room.
Zheng Mingshan closed the wooden board again.
"Luo Ren, you also know that my master is an old-fashioned person. In the early years, the process of changing the leader of the martial arts world was very complicated, and it was not an exaggeration to say that he had passed five levels and defeated six generals. Of course, now that the population is declining, I can't play so many flower dorsals, but the master doesn't want us to know, so I think it's reasonable."
"The only accident was that your opponent had somehow come here." Zheng Mingshan glanced at the flower that was thrown on the ground by him, "You can solve your trouble."
It may make sense that Zheng Mingshan is so careless, but when he thinks that the cheetah may be coming, Luo Ren can't calm down.
"Where is the most likely thing for Muyo and Master? I'm going to find it."
I don’t know how to wander around the town. I’m probably going to go into the mountains when I’m hugging the mountains.
Zheng Mingshan felt a headache. He guessed Luo Ren’s thoughts and signaled outside: “You can see the fog yourself.”
"Around the early morning, it was the time when the fog was the most in this town. There was a fog town at the foot of the mountain, not to mention how thick the fog in the mountain was. I can guarantee that even if you bring a strong light flashlight in it, the visibility was at most ten meters, not to mention that the people in this town almost never enter the mountain."
"Why?"
"There are two kinds of statements. The first is that the mountain's direction and direction are very strange, like a maze of nine turns and eighteen times, and people who enter usually cannot get out."
He paused and looked at Luo Ren: "This is true."
At first, he was also curious, and relied on his professionalism to bring his equipment in and explore it. After a small piece of it, he was secretly shocked and soon came out.
"The second is that it is said that before liberation, the mountains were occupied by bandits and occupied the mountains as kings. Although they were later cleared, the mountains still retained the traps laid out in the early years, which was too dangerous. Therefore, there is a foggy town backed by the mountains, but the people here never rely on the mountains to earn the mountains."
He laughed dryly: "We can't develop tourism, otherwise you think there is such a good place to put it in - that's because the early exploration was not successful, the instrument failed when it entered, the guide did not point, and there was fog all year round. Even if there were satellites on the top, the mystery inside could not be drawn."
Luo Ren felt it was unreasonable: "Then how could Master and Mu Dai get in?"
Zheng Mingshan glanced at him.
"How do I know that it is not me who inherited the master's legacy."
***
That night, just after dinner, Mu Dayi went to knock on the door of Meihua Jiuniang.
The door did not open, and the master's voice came from it: "The time has not come, wait."
When will we wait? I didn't say anything, and I was about to part. I wanted to find Luo Ren, but I was afraid that my master would call her at that time.
He calculated the time and knocked on the door a few more times. The last time, the master asked her: "Is it foggy?"
She looked back and saw that the thick fog almost covered the night, covering the sky and using her usual jokes: A huge bun skin, you should quickly wrap the foggy town into a bun.
The master then let her in.
As soon as I entered the door, I felt strange. Although Meihua Jiuniang was still sitting in a wheelchair, she had a brocade cloth on the handrail, and her two broken legs were tied with prosthetics.
This prosthesis is different from the usual prosthesis. Mu Dai heard Zheng Mingshan say that Meihua Jiuniang broke her legs for some reason when she was less than 20 years old. The young man's nature and gambled. It took him five or six years to practice the knots and flew. Later, he despised the crutches intrusion. He referred to the prosthesis used by disabled people and figured out a special pair of prosthetics. The special materials used at first glance looked like two concave golf clubs, thin, hard but not flexible. Mu Dai only heard of it, but he had never seen his master use it.
I think this is the case, I can't help but watch it again and again.
"Kiyo."
She heard the master's tone solemn, quickly calmed down, stepped forward and knelt on Huang Jinfu, respectfully: "Here."
"Do you know that Master wants to inherit his legacy to you?"
"Know."
"The small sect actually has no deal with. But even if there is only one person left, you should have rules and rules in your business. Do you understand?"
"Understand."
"Give your robe and mantle to you, and you have to give it a responsibility. You have to put away your daughter's temper, be willful, and ignore it. From now on, you have to worry about doing things and keep silent. Even if you are close relatives and beloved, you still have to keep the secrets you should keep. Even if you are unlucky, you have to survive as usual for this responsibility. Can you do it?"
"able."
Meihua Jiuniang's tone softened: "Miyo, think about what the master said again. It's not that you want you to answer well, but that you really need to do it. Can you?"
Kiyo thought about it carefully, then nodded: "Master, I can't say anything to death, but I promise I will fight to the death to do what I promise you."
Plum Blossom Jiu Niang smiled, and after a while, she signaled her to approach.
"From now on, this Guansi Pailou will be yours."
Muday nodded: "What does the elder brother say, it's just..."
She wanted to speak but stopped.
"What is it?"
"Why is this house called Guansi Pailou? There is not even a archway in our house."
Meihua Jiuniang said: "Because it is not Guansi Pailou, it is just a name for Guansi Pailou."
Mu Dai was confused.
Meihua Jiuniang didn't explain: "Go and open the cabinet at the head of the master's bed, and there was a brocade bag inside."
As I said, I took a secret drawer and pulled it open. Sure enough, there was a brocade bag, which was not big and was not heavy to pick it up. I just felt that the shape was a bit strange.
When she got it in front of Plum Blossom Jiu Niang, she didn't answer, but just ordered: "Open and take a look."
Kiyo carefully uncovered the cloth bag.
Is this...bat?
She held the bat wings and raised them up. Looking closely at the lamp, she saw that it was a wood carved bat, dark red, and it looked like it was painted. It should be a while ago, and many places were rubbed and shiny, and there seemed to be a buckle on her wings, but she couldn't even break it. What's more strange is that she had an eye mask on her eyes.
What kind of bat, what blindfold is it? Batman? Mu Dai wanted to laugh, and reached out to reveal it. Plum Blossom Jiu Niang remained silent: "Don't move."
This is to prevent the revelation. Mu Dayi sighed and was about to put the cloth bag back when Meihua Jiuniang said, "Look at it again."
Kiyo knew that it was probably because he had missed something.
After looking carefully, I finally found that there was a miniature but lifelike wooden kite carved at the bottom of the bat's belly.
What's the meaning?
Plum Blossom Jiu Niang spoke: "You should have heard that in history, there was a carpenter named Lu Ban? It is said that he once built a wooden kite that could fly in the sky for three days and three nights without falling."
So? Mu Dai was stunned when he picked up the bat, and his eyes fell on the concave figure again, and suddenly he reacted: "Master, you don't want to say that this bat was made by Lu Ban, right?"
Plum Blossom Jiu Niang didn't say anything, but her expression was clearly the default.
Kiyo was ridiculous and wailing: "Then can this bat fly into the sky?"
"able."
Kiyo won't laugh anymore.
