Chapter 1625: Reveal first, then hide
"Yishan?"
Upon hearing this, Hu Zi's eyes lit up, but then he shook his head and said, "No, my master's body... What if he suddenly goes crazy and hurts others? It will be terrible. Let's talk about this later."
Since Hu Zi said so, I didn't force it. After all, after Pao Zhen became a demon, he didn't recognize his relatives. Only Ling'er could become his anchor and pull him back, but what if Ling'er happened to be not by Pao Zhen's side?
With Pao Zhen's cultivation, I'm afraid he could kill Yishan and make him restless!
"Xiao Hu..." I picked up the wine glass, looked at Hu Zi and said in a deep voice: "What did Ling'er say?"
This sentence made Hu Zi silent. After a long time, he said: "Xiao Hu was stolen by Cuicui."
"What?" I froze when I heard it, and my eyes were full of astonishment.
At first, Miao Cuicui left Xiao Hu behind and left without saying goodbye. The purpose was to worry that she was special and could not take care of Xiao Hu. The most important thing was that the Ten Thousand Corpses Cave was still thinking about Xiao Hu, the Holy Son.
Who would have thought that Miao Cuicui would secretly take Xiao Hu away again?
"Was it Miao Cuicui who stole it, or...was it someone from the Ten Thousand Corpses Cave who stole it?" I frowned, my eyes full of worry.
"It was Cuicui, I'm sure." Hu Zi took a sip of wine and said with a wry smile: "After returning to Guo Village, I confessed this to Ling'er. Ling'er is a good girl. She didn't say anything, just took Xiaohu. My master... didn't say much either."
I nodded when I heard it. Pao Zhen must have known about this a long time ago. After all, with his ability, it would be difficult to hide it from him.
And Pao Zhen must have been prepared a long time ago.
But what I never expected was that Hu Zi's next words made me startled, and then I spurted out the wine in my mouth with a "puff".
"They just trapped me under the eaves and beat me up..."
"Hahahaha..." I couldn't help but laughed out loud. Maybe I laughed too suddenly and everyone's eyes were on me. I hurriedly stopped smiling and said, "Sorry, you guys continue, you guys continue!" Seeing this,
Mao Buhui hurriedly said, "Come on, don't worry about them, girl, come on, let's continue boxing, six six six... Hey hey hey, Lao Wang, don't just drink, come and drink together!"
"How do you know that it was Miao Cuicui who took Xiaohu away?" I asked.
"That night... I felt Cuicui's presence. She stood in front of my window for a long time. She was looking at Ling'er!" Hu Zi took a sip of wine and said in a low voice: "I know what she was thinking. She must want to see what kind of girl Ling'er is. She saw it, and Ling'er is very good. She... maybe she didn't want Xiao Hu to hurt Ling'er, so she took Xiao Hu away."
I didn't say anything when I heard it. After all, Miao Cuicui grew up with Hu Zi and me. We had a very deep relationship, but now, Miao Cuicui has ended up like this. It's a bit sad to see how she ended up.
"Did Miao Cuicui leave a message saying where she was going?" I asked again.
Hu Zi shook his head: "Although he didn't say it, I think he should stay away from disputes and go to a mountain forest where there is no conflict."
Then, Hu Zi and I didn't continue to talk. In the long silence, Hu Zi just kept drinking one cup after another. I knew he was upset, so I didn't say anything, just accompanied him to drink one cup after another.
At this moment, the atmosphere at the dinner table was reversed. Mao Buhui, Wang Zhenhong and the four girls from the Hu family were drinking enthusiastically. Wang Qian retreated to the corner of the dining hall at some point and was sitting cross-legged in meditation. Mu Yunxi was holding a bottle of wine and squinting his eyes to drink by himself.
Only Hu Zi and I had solemn faces and kept drinking.
"Qian Yu, the martial arts competition is coming soon. I heard that you want to participate?" Hu Zi suddenly changed the subject and looked at me and
asked. I nodded and then continued, "In this kind of competition, the participants are all elite disciples from various sects. It is a good opportunity to establish your prestige in the martial arts world. But when my master came, he told me that he would not let me participate, but only let me follow you. In case you encounter any danger, let me protect you more."
"Uncle Pao will not let you participate, but only let you protect me?"
I frowned when I heard this. I thought that according to Uncle Pao's personality, he would definitely hope that Hu Zi would participate in this kind of competition. After all, the Pao family's swordsmanship has been silent for too long. Now that the martial arts competition is about to be held, it is the time to revive the Pao family's pig-killing knife. However, Uncle Pao actually did not let Hu Zi participate?
"Could it be that... Uncle Cook has foreseen something?"
This martial arts conference will be different from any previous one.
In the past, it was just a fight between different sects, but this time, it is very likely to become a fight between races.
I even have a feeling... that at the martial arts conference, something big will happen that will shock the whole world.
For example... someone will assassinate the old master, causing his death, or... my death!
I hurriedly shook my head and thought to myself, Zhang Qianyu, ah Zhang Qianyu, what are you thinking about? It's just a martial arts conference. With your current level of cultivation, even if you can't beat the top ten masters in the world, you can run away. What are you worried about!
"Moreover, Master and Senior Sister will definitely be keeping an eye on me in secret. If I really encounter danger, they will definitely not ignore me! And the old Heavenly Master and all the masters of the Heavenly Master Mansion in Longhu Mountain will protect me in secret and protect all the human elites!"
I breathed a sigh of relief only when I thought of this. Then I looked at Hu Zi and said, "Hu Zi, if you want to participate, just go and sign up directly. You don't have to follow me all the time."
What I didn't expect was that Hu Zi, who always loved to show off, shook his head and said, "The Pao family's swordsmanship must be promoted in the early stage and hidden in the later stage. The so-called promotion does not mean fame, but to practice the courage to draw a knife against the immortals. After that, it is to hide, hide...that is, to keep a calm mind forever, to put away the knife in time, and to hide the merit and fame!"
I nodded.
This meal lasted until the night fell. Mao Buhui and Wang Zhenhong were both drunk and were helped back to rest by the four women of the Hu family. As for Mu Yunxi, she flashed and turned into a stream of fiery red light, disappearing into the night. She must have gone to look for Xiaoqi.
Hu Zi and Wang Qian were arranged in a room. As for me...
Xiao Yao didn't even arrange a place for me!
I hesitated on the first floor, and then slowly walked towards the stairs, ready to go to Hu Shihua's room on the top floor.
But at this time, the door of the room next to it suddenly opened, and then I saw Hu Shiran, who was wearing a red bellyband and had long wet hair covering her chest, standing in front of the door, looking at me with a resentful face.
