Lu Xiaofeng saw two people passing by the cliff, and his expression changed subtly. Xiao Qingzhou followed his line of sight and saw two fellow disciples.
He was indifferent and showed a self-deprecating smile to Lu Xiaofeng: "Look."
Lu Xiaofeng understood what Xiao Qingzhou wanted him to see. He had seen many similar scenes along the way.
Whether it was the fight and quarrel between Zhongming and Xiao Qingzhou, or Wudu's admonition between the two, these were all because they could not get a response from the head of the Salted Fish Sect, so they had been brooding over it.
Wangcai stood up and shouted cheerfully to the two people below: "Woof woof woof woof!"
Chongming and Wudu below stopped and looked at the two people and the dog on the cliff from a distance.
Lu Xiaofeng stepped forward, stood beside Wangcai and waved to the two people below.
Wudu politely responded with the same gesture.
Chongming glanced at him with a cold look, and Lu Xiaofeng clearly heard Xiaoqingzhou beside him sneer.
Wangcai ran to the side with his tail wagging, and saw green ripples on the steep slope downward. After a moment, the black and golden furry puppy rolled out of the bushes like a dumpling, and lay on the ground, with messy grass leaves on its hair.
After lying on the ground for a while, Wangcai somersaulted and got up. He ran towards the two of them happily and was held tightly in Chongming's arms.
Lu Xiaofeng and Xiao Qingzhou went down together. When they met, no one spoke. They just watched Wangcai rolling in Chongming's arms.
"Where are you two going?" Lu Xiaofeng noticed that the atmosphere between Chongming and Wudu was a little strange.
"..." Wudu said, "To find the head master."
Xiao Qingzhou laughed and said, "I've been looking for so long, but I still haven't found it."
Lu Xiaofeng looked at him with a helpless expression. It stands to reason that Xiao Qingzhou already knew what happened last night, but his attitude seemed to be unknown.
Chongming lowered his head to pick the leaves off Wangcai, glanced at Xiao Qingzhou, and seemed to want to say something, but said nothing.
He turned around and left with Wangcai in his arms. Wudu did not catch up with him this time, but said to Xiao Qingzhou: "Xiaozhou, you should know that Bu Zao is indeed the master's business, don't say that to your senior brother."
Xiao Qingzhou said: "I know. So does the master have any instructions for you, senior brother?"
Wudu hesitated for a moment and shook his head: "No."
Xiao Qingzhou: "I know."
The three walked back, Wudu said that he had talked to Chongming and he would take good care of his injuries and would not do anything harmful to himself.
"How is the injury of the owner of Chongming Tower?"
Lu Xiaofeng remembered that he was injured in his arm, but he did not change his expression when Chongming hugged Wangcai just now.
"The injury is not serious." Wu Du said.
Xiao Qingzhou said lightly: "You have such a neutral attitude towards traitors. I really don't know what the master is thinking."
"Xiaozhou... the master is just not good at expressing himself."
Wu Du still insisted on his own statement.
Xiao Qingzhou did not comment.
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Maybe it is true."
Xiao Qingzhou looked at Lu Xiaofeng in surprise, met Lu Xiaofeng's frank gaze, slightly closed his eyes, and said nothing.
When the three returned to the deserted courtyard they found last night, they found that it was quite lively inside.
"You are neither disciples of the Salty Fish Sect nor locals on the island, how dare you be so arrogant!"
"Because we were brought to the island by disciples of the Salty Fish Sect! We are guests! Do you know what it means to be guests from afar?" The person who said this was Yu Tianbao, who claimed to be the young master of the Demon Sect and would explode at the slightest provocation.
Wang Lianhua and Sikong Zhaixing were watching the show silently. Yidianhong wanted Yu Tianbao to say less, so she spoke in front of him: "You are now under the control of the leader of the Salted Fish Sect, so you'd better not cause trouble."
These words were said sincerely and reasonably. The people in front of Yidianhong choked and became even angrier. One of them pointed out Yidianhong's identity: "Yidianhong, you finally got rid of Xue Xiaoren's control, why are you still running around with Wudu? Don't be a condescending evaluator! We are the same" Yidianhong
: "..."
"Wait wait - don't cause trouble either!!!!"
Yu Tianbao desperately held down Yidianhong's hand that was about to draw the sword.
Wang Lianhua was excited to see the excitement and waved his fist to cheer: "Draw the sword! Draw the sword! Draw the sword!"
The people on the opposite side also became alert: "We tell you, if you take action easily, the leader of the Salted Fish Sect will not let you off!!"
Yidianhong was a little choked, and Yu Tianbao was more direct, turning around and shouting: "Shut up! Don't treat other people's leaders as your own boss. If you have the guts, call out your old island master to save your face!"
"What, what! How can this be! Who are you, kid!"
"You are blind! I am the young master of the Demon Sect!"
"Impossible!"
Wang Lianhua mixed in and shouted behind Yidianhong and Yu Tianbao: "Damn it! You are not allowed to insult my young master!"
Yu Tianbao turned his head in horror: No, who is your young
master Due to Wang Linhua's meddling, the situation deteriorated and was about to explode.
At this moment, Lu Xiaofeng and others appeared and slowly approached. No one noticed the three of them.
Sikong Zhaixing also didn't notice that this guy was also very excited to show off for the young master of the Demon Cult, and shouted loudly: "Don't underestimate our young master of the Demon Cult! I don't even need to hit you!"
Yu Tianbao was shocked: "Hey, you two!!!"
The faces of the old man's subordinates changed again and again, and they were confused: "It turns out... Yidianhong followed you, not Wudu. These people are all your subordinates! You Luosha Cult don't want to infiltrate the Central Plains but run here... What a big ambition!"
Now it was Yu Tianbao's turn to stutter: "What, what!"
What nonsense are these guys talking about!
Wang Lianhua was also surprised. He really wanted to see these people think wrongly, but was it too wrong to think too much
? Could it be that they forgot that Yu Tianbao left Luosha Cult because he was held
hostage? How could a young leader who was held hostage have such powerful subordinates?
Wang Lianhua showed a bit of disdain on her face. She felt that the people on the island might not have used their brains under the coercion of the leader Bu Zao.
In fact, it was not their fault. The chef Bu Zao wore a mask because of Bu Zao of the Salted Fish Sect. This made them deeply imprinted the principle of "not judging people by appearance" in their minds. Even if Yu Tianbao looked frightened, stupid, domineering, and arrogant... he didn't look like a young master of a demon sect, as long as they looked down on him, the weird and miserable mask of the leader of the Salted Fish Sect would appear in front of them.
The old man's subordinates looked at Yu Tianbao with fear.
Yu Tianbao was a young lady who had just married. It was the first time that someone looked at her like that. She was not flattered, but her scalp was tingling. She wondered what these guys were up to.
Xiao Qingzhou came out first, smiling, "It's so lively."
Yu Tianbao looked at him as if he had seen a savior: "Master Xiao, you came at the right time! These guys are looking for trouble with us!"
"No!"
A group of people shook their heads and strongly denied it.
And to be honest, it was actually Yu Tianbao who started the trouble first...
"It's nothing serious," Yidianhong was no longer angry, and no longer held the sword. He calmly explained to everyone, and at the same time signaled the old man's men to leave quickly.
Xiao Qingzhou was dressed in pink, with elegant clothes, picturesque features, and a kind smile. He looked like someone who was easy to provoke, but after knowing his deeds, no one dared to look down on him.
The old man's subordinates received the signal, quickly admitted their guilt, and hurriedly said goodbye and ran away.
Xiao Qingzhou didn't care and watched them go away. Afterwards, everyone talked and exchanged their ideas. Wu Du expressed his plan: "It's a rare opportunity for our master to reunite. I want to stay on the island for a while."
His tone was full of joy, and his eyes were shining. It was obvious that he was looking forward to the scene he imagined.
Everyone looked at him strangely.
After seeing the scene last night, everyone was curious about the original mode of interaction between the four masters and apprentices of the Salted Fish Sect. Now Wu Du said that he wanted to stay on the island...
and didn't want to leave.
It was winter when we arrived on the island, but the temperature was not low, and it was even very comfortable. After we landed on the island, it was the end of the year, and we couldn't go back home on the reunion night anyway.
So it was better to save some trouble and stay on the island.
Yu Tianbao said, "I will go with Wudu."
He had no money and no strength, so the best choice was to cling to the golden thigh of his creditor Wudu.
Wang Lianhua said, "I don't care."
Yidianhong, Lu Xiaofeng and Sikong Zhaixing didn't care either, so everyone reached a consensus and stayed on the island.
Wang Lianhua asked, "What if Chongming or your head master wants to run away? They really don't get along."
Wudu said, "They won't leave."
Wang Lianhua narrowed his eyes slightly: "I find that you... always make inexplicable conclusions without any evidence or reason. Why?"
"Maybe because of... intuition." Wudu tilted his head and answered seriously, "I know it in my heart."
Wang Lianhua slapped his forehead. Damn it, why did he forget Wudu's motto.
For Wudu, everything can be explained by this sentence.

Chongming and Wangcai were walking and met a little old man with a miserable atmosphere.
The old man was drinking on a stone bench by the roadside, looking at the waves hitting the shore below. He heard the movement made by Wangcai, looked over, and saw Chongming.
It happened to be the half of his face that was not covered by the mask. His eyebrows and eyes were straight and a bit cold. Only when he looked at Wangcai would his eyes soften a little.
The old man had wanted to meet Chongming and see what this powerful person looked like. In the end, he didn't meet him, and instead fell in front of an "insignificant cook".
Chongming's temperament was almost exactly the same as the old man imagined, but it was a pity that things were different now. The old man wanted to pull him last night, but he didn't feel like it today.
Because he thought about it all night and found that Chongming was not a qualified traitor at all.
Otherwise, how could Chongming, after hiding for two years, suddenly reveal his whereabouts when the other two disciples of the Salted Fish Sect went down the mountain
and take good care of Wudu.
Such a traitor must have salted fish in his heart, and he would never accept the invitation of the old man.
The old man would never seek humiliation.
Wangcai ran happily on the path, his tail swaying in the wind. Chongming did not look at the old man, but just slowly chased Wangcai's figure.
Bu Zao himself was very regretful. Did the old man give up too early?
Because the vests had rich experience, Bu Zao did not feel the passage of time too strongly.
The leader stayed on the island for nearly a month. A month is not a short time. It can change many ideas and make many ideas deeply rooted in people's hearts.
In a month, the old man fell from the peak to the bottom. The gap was so big that it was hard to accept, not to mention that for someone as arrogant as the old man, the blow was extraordinary.
