When Hua Shi woke up the next morning, his limbs still felt a little stiff.
His sleeping posture was not very good before. Last night, because Fang Wei was sleeping next to him, he was afraid that he would press down Fang Wei, who looked already fragile, while sleeping. So he restrained himself from moving the whole night, for fear that he would accidentally hurt Fang Wei after falling asleep.
I slept as stiffly as a corpse the whole night, and when I woke up, I naturally felt a little sore.
Hua Shi hadn't felt this way for a long time. When he stood up, his expression didn't change much, but Fang Wei still noticed it. Fang Wei looked at him and said with a smile, "If you are so careful, I'd better sleep on the table next time. My current size only requires a thin blanket to sleep well."
Hearing Fang Wei say this, Hua Shi immediately became anxious: "No, no! How can I let you sleep on the table!"
Fang Wei said: "I can't let you sleep on the table."
Hua Shi: "No..."
His mind was spinning rapidly, and he was about to come up with a new story to stop Fang Wei's plan, when suddenly a voice from a Hanxi Sect disciple came from outside, saying, "Evil Master, the Sect Leader asked us to inform you that the two people who sold spiritual objects yesterday have been found."
Hua Shi and Fang Wei stopped talking at the same time. Hua Shi was about to respond, but before he spoke, he thought of something and turned to look in Fang Wei's direction.
Fang Wei knew that he was waiting for him to make a decision, but he didn't plan to speak out. He just shook his head and said, "You are the evil master."
Hua Shi didn't say much in the end, just nodded, and then raised his voice to the people outside the room: "I understand."
When he responded, his tone returned to that of a master of evil, but this solemn look probably only lasted for a moment, because then he turned to Fang Wei and whispered, "You haven't even had breakfast yet and you're going to work. Are you hungry? I have a lot of food in my Yunxiu Pen Space. Do you want fruit or cakes? If you want something else, that's fine too, but it'll take some time. I'd better show you my cooking skills next time."
Fang Wei raised his eyebrows and asked, "How many things did you put in the Yunxiu Pen space?"
"Too many. I later learned that the size of the Yunxiu Pen space is determined by the cultivation level of the owner of the spiritual weapon. The stronger the cultivation level of the owner of the spiritual weapon, the larger the Yunxiu Pen space. I have never slacked off in my cultivation over the years, and now the Yunxiu Pen space has become very large." Hua Shi was like a peacock that kept spreading its tail, constantly showing Fang Wei the results of his cultivation over the years. "I also planted a lot of flowers and fruit trees in it, and I also expanded the palace. The lake in front allows Senior Shanjing to swim in it at will."
Fang Wei found what he said interesting and didn't interrupt him, just listened to him continue talking.
After the two of them had packed up, they headed towards the study of Sect Master Hanxi. Along the way, several disciples led the way in front, and from time to time they looked back at the evil master Hua Shi who was walking behind them with an imposing and intimidating aura. Although they could see that he was talking to the spirit creature on his shoulder, they had no idea what their conversation was about.
However, the evil master has always been frugal with his words. The reason he said so much now must be to inquire about the group of spiritual creature dealers from the poor spiritual creature that was almost sold.
The disciples thought as a matter of course as they watched this scene.
Hua Shi and Fang Wei had no idea that their conversation was understood in this way by several young disciples. Half a quarter of an hour later, after showing off to Fang Wei their transformation in the Yunxiu Pen Space and what they had done in the Fengyu Palace, Hua Shi and the others finally arrived outside the study of the leader of the Hanxi Sect.
Zhou Li and Yu Xing had been waiting there for a long time. When they saw Hua Shi coming, they immediately stepped forward and said, "The two are already inside. The master is interrogating them now."
When saying this, Zhou Li's eyes seemed to inadvertently glance at Fang Wei who was sitting on Hua Shi's shoulder.
Until now, he still doesn't know the identity of this spiritual creature and what its relationship is to Hua Shi. Hua Shi still has no intention of explaining or introducing it, which makes him and Yu Xing more and more curious.
Hua Shi noticed Zhou Li's gaze and unconsciously turned to the right to block his sight. He said vigilantly: "You wouldn't..."
Zhou Li didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I'm waiting for you to introduce me. What are you thinking about? Forget it, just go in. The master is waiting for you."
Hua Shi then took Fang Wei into the house. Sure enough, they were talking inside. Two men stood in front of the leader of Hanxi Sect. They both had dark eyes and ugly faces. It was obvious that they did not get enough rest last night. Fang Wei recognized them at a glance. Seeing Hua Shi looking at him calmly, he nodded in response.
Hua Shi was sure that it was the two guys in front of him who almost sold out Fang Wei. He was angry and even his expression when he looked at the two men became much colder.
The two men had already confessed a lot in front of the Hanxi Sect Master, and their faces were full of fear. When they saw Hua Shi coming in, their reactions were a little slow, as if they were unable to recognize Hua Shi's identity. It was not until the Hanxi Sect Master raised his eyes and took the initiative to call out "Evil Lord" that the two men's eyes gradually widened, and after a moment their expressions immediately changed, and they shrank their bodies tightly.
Hua Shi looked at the two people's reactions with a half-smile, but did not immediately pay attention to them. He just nodded and came to sit on the chair next to the leader of Hanxi Sect, and asked the latter first: "Sect Master, what did they say?"
The leader of Hanxi Sect said helplessly, "They have confessed that they do belong to a certain organization, but this organization is very mysterious. They are just small minions on the edge and don't know much about the affairs of the organization. They usually move around in the town near Hanxi Sect and follow orders to hand over some low-level spiritual objects in the woods near Huoyuan. So they don't know more about it."
Fang Wei was following Hua Shi. Hearing these words, he looked thoughtful and then turned his gaze to Hua Shi.
Hua Shi lowered his head and took the tea that the disciples had prepared for him early. He blew on it but did not drink it. He just carefully took Fang Wei off his shoulder, put him on the table, handed the teacup in front of him, and pushed the plate of fruit over to him.
The fruits on the plate seemed very big to Fang Wei. Hua Shi frowned and looked for a moment before picking out a grape and putting it in Fang Wei's hand.
Fang Wei held the grape, which was bigger than his face, in both hands and was forced to sit next to him and watch the show.
Hua Shi finally asked again after he had done all these things: "Even if he is a peripheral disciple, he should be able to say something about the location of this organization and the information about the handover person. What do you think, Sect Master?"
The leader of Hanxi Sect raised his eyebrows and said, "I think what you said is correct."
Hua Shi continued slowly, "If these two people concealed the truth on purpose, how will the Sect Master deal with them?"
The leader of the Hanxi Sect seemed to be in distress and asked: "The Hanxi Sect is not good at handling this kind of thing, why don't you make the decision, Master Xie."
Hua Shi raised his eyes and said, "Since the Sect Master has said so, I can only take these two people back to Fengyu Palace and interrogate them..."
"Wait!" Before Hua Shi finished speaking, the two men shouted anxiously. They quickly grabbed Hua Shi's clothes and said loudly, "We really don't know much. We really only exchanged low-level spiritual objects with the gray cat in the woods on the other side of the Abyss, and then took them back to the town to do business. We only know that every time we are contacted, it is a woman with a plum blossom mark on her cheek. We really don't know much else. Evil Master, please don't take us back to Fengyu Palace!"
Fang Wei: “…”
He knew that Hua Shi was using this method to threaten the two of them, but even he did not expect that Hua Shi's method would be so effective.
I don’t know what Hua Shi had done in the past that would make others so scared when they heard his name.
Hua Shi was originally threatening others as usual, but he suddenly remembered that Fang Wei was beside him. He coughed twice, shook his head, and said with a gentle face, "What are you doing? Do I look like someone who is so difficult to talk to?"
The two men were even more frightened when they saw this. They quickly shook their heads and almost knelt on the ground: "It's not possible, Master Evil, please let us go."
Hua Shi sighed in his heart, looked at Fang Wei with hesitation, not knowing whether he should explain something.
However, at this time, the leader of the Hanxi Sect had already spoken, saying that he wanted the two men to talk in detail about the handover. Hua Shi knew that he could not delay the important matter, so he could only turn his attention back to this point.
The two men didn't know much about the woman with the plum blossom mark on her face. After talking for a long time, they could only confirm that she looked young and her biggest feature was the mark. Hua Shi asked some questions in a pretentious manner and made sure that the other party had nothing to hide. Then he handed the person over to the disciples of Hanxi Sect who were waiting outside, preparing to take them away to teach them a lesson so that they would have a deep enough memory and ensure that they would not dare to do such a thing again next time.
The conversation in the room ended, and neither Hua Shi nor Hanxi Sect Master spoke immediately. A moment later, Zhou Li and Yu Xing walked in from outside. Looking at the two people in the room, and then at Fang Wei who was eating politely and trying to finish the half grape, Yu Xing seemed to have something to say, but after seeing Fang Wei, his eyes were immediately fixed on Fang Wei and couldn't be pulled away: "Ah, so cute!"
Zhou Li silently tugged at the corner of Yu Xing's clothes, and after pulling his spirit back, he coughed lightly and said, "How are your questions going?"
Hua Shi no longer kept a reserved demeanor after the two men were taken away. He now held his face with his hands and stared at Fang Wei. Only when he was asked did he tell Zhou Li and Yu Xing about the conversation just now.
The two were not surprised to hear this and quickly said, "What a coincidence. When we interrogated the people we captured yesterday, they also mentioned this woman with the plum blossom mark on her face."
The two groups of people who were arrested had no chance to collude, and they mentioned this woman at the same time, so it didn't seem like fake news.
Hua Shi pondered and said, "Did they mention the time and place of the handover?"
Zhou Li nodded: "Of course there is, it will be in three days, in the pavilion on the outskirts of that town."
Now things were easy. As long as the other party didn't know any other information, they could go and check it out in person on that day and capture the woman easily.
Hua Shi and Sect Master Hanxi looked at each other and quickly arranged their own affairs. They ordered their disciples to conceal the news of the arrest of this group of people, and then investigated the location of the pavilion outside the town and made full preparations.
After doing all this, all they have to do is wait.
Hua Shi had nothing to do and didn't want to stay and greet the leader of Hanxi Sect, so after giving his instructions, he quickly returned to his room. He planned to take Fang Wei to the Yunxiu Pen Space for a stroll.
But before that, he suddenly remembered something and quickly stopped the Hanxi Sect disciple who was following him back to the courtyard to clean up and said, "Is there a tailor nearby? I want the best one. Money is not a problem."
The disciple finally had a chance to talk to the evil master alone, and suddenly he was a little nervous: "Ah? Evil master, do you need clothes? We can buy them for you, the tailor is too slow."
"No." Hua Shi scratched his cheek, "It's not that I want clothes, I want to prepare a few more sets of clothes for him."
There were quite a few clothes in his Yunxiu Pen space, but none of them could fit Fang Wei.
