Chapter 45: Anything but Extraordinary
There is no basis for the words, whether it is a mule or a horse, it must be pulled out and slipped.
At the strong invitation of the old man, Yang Jian followed the master and apprentice for only a few hundred zhang, and Liuya took the two of them to find a pile of rubble at the foot of the mountain.
Lao Dao threw up his arms and started digging, and he really found an ancient tomb that had been hidden for many years on the flat ground without any abnormality.
Lao Dao didn't dare to take the burial gold and silver from the tomb in front of Yang Jian, this move just proved Liuya's talent, and he filled back the soil with a shovel after shovel.
Yang Jian noticed that this old way of shoveling and returning soil is very special.
When digging the soil, the force is not great, but it can go straight up and down, and it seems to be effortless;
After filling in the soil, there were no traces left on the ground, and a few small grasses were not damaged.
Yang Jian admired in his heart, the flood is so big, it is really strange.
Seeing that the two masters and apprentices really relied on robbing tombs to eat, and listening to the old Tao's oath, they only took dusty treasures and never touched the corpse of the deceased, so Yang Jian didn't want to care about them a little.
Unexpectedly, the first time he acted chivalrous and righteous, it turned out to be a misunderstanding.
"In this case, I was offended before, so I ...... it" Yang Jian said goodbye.
"Hey!
Lao Dao hurriedly grabbed Yang Jian's arm, and then made Liuya run over and hug Yang Jian's thigh, this grandson and apprentice, but relied on Yang Jian.
Listening to the old Taoist smiled: "The immortal must be amazing, I waited for the master and apprentice to come here because I got a treasure map, and I know that there is a big tomb here! If the immortal can go with the two of us, maybe he can get the immortal treasure!"
Yang Jian naturally scoffed at this, how could he be a disciple of the dignified Jade Ding Zhenren, the eldest disciple of the three sects of the Daomen Miao Zhenggenhong, how could he do such a thing as robbing tombs!
But the old man inadvertently said a word, which made Yang Jian have to think about it seriously......
"There is a witch word written on the treasure map, and I don't know what it means. ”
Witch?
Yang Jian's heart pounded.
He first suspected that the tomb that the pair of grandfathers and grandsons were looking for was the resting place of the war witch.
But the place where the war witch rests is in a desert outside the secret realm, tens of thousands of miles away from here, but I heard the old saying that the tomb is in this small world of the secret realm......
That war witch fell in this world, maybe there will be an ancient battlefield here, and other witch masters have fallen!
The essence blood of the Wu clan is a great supplement for his eight or nine mystical skills, and Yang Jian will naturally be tempted by the chance.
Although there is such a thing as tomb robbing...... It's not that it's inflexible, treasure hunting.
"If I want to work with you, then show me the treasure map. Yang Jian put forward his own request.
"Shangxian did not use mana to pressure our grandson to hand over the treasure map, which shows that Shangxian has a good character and is a person who keeps his promises. How about we discuss it somewhere else?"
Lao Dao slapped a sycophant past, and Yang Jian was also a little fluttering.
In a daze, Yang Jian was pulled by Lao Dao and pushed by Liuya, went back to town, found a restaurant, and sat in a private room.
Yang Jian hadn't made up his mind at this time, but he had already been dragged onto the thief ship by this grandson.
It seemed that the old man had forgotten Yang Jian's sneak attack on him before, and he quickly became familiar with Yang Jian.
The old Taoist god looked left and right mysteriously, pushed a broken drawing to Yang Jian's hand, and asked Liuya to stay here, and said with a smile: "Shangxian, I'll prepare a few things to use, and please take care of Liuya here." ”
"I ...... Okay," Yang Jian rubbed his eyebrows, not suspecting anything else.
There was a shopkeeper who brought a few meals to the table, and Liuya seemed to be hungry for a few days, and suddenly began to eat.
When Yang Jian saw Liuya, he thought of his sister Xiaochan's appearance when she was so old, and her heart was also a little soft.
It's just that Xiaochan is much more 'quiet' than Liuya, and she eats in small mouths, and she doesn't sit on a chair and dangle her feet, and buries her face in the bowl.
"Slow down, don't choke. ”
Yang Jian said softly and patted Liuya's somewhat thin back.
But suddenly, Yang Jian's palm was stunned.
"Liuya, your teeth don't hurt anymore?"
"Uh...... Hiccup!"
Liuya, who lowered her head to eat, rolled her eyes for a while, and then raised her head and smiled at Yang Jian, her face full of vegetable oil, "Actually, it doesn't hurt that much...... Hee-hee......"
Yang Jian's face was a little gloomy, and Liuya quickly sat up straight in fright, looking at Yang Jian pitifully.
"That old Taoist is really your master?"
"Uh-huh!"
Yang Jian: "How do you masters and apprentices want to calculate me?"
"Reckoning...... What is it?" Liuya looked up at Yang Jian, with an innocent and harmless expression.
Yang Jian caught the slight flicker in her eyes, did not speak, and began to think in his heart.
Thinking about it at this time, the old way seemed to be deliberately leading himself over, and there was no flaw in the whole process.
But it is inevitable that the old way of begging for mercy or kowtowing is too natural......
Also, Lao Dao poured out a bunch of 'goods' in that rag bag, which should have been very important to their master and apprentice, but this Lao Dao never looked at those things......
Sure enough, there was a problem!
Yang Jian's heart froze, and he didn't dare to believe Liuya's words, and asked, "Where are your parents?"
"I, I'm an orphan," Liuya pouted, her little face was full of melancholy, and she whispered, "My master said that when I was still an infant, he dug it out of the coffin. ”
Yang Jian's fingers trembled, Liuya was only four or five years old, and the sadness and bitterness in her eyes when she said this made Yang Jian feel a pang in her heart.
"How old are you this year?" Yang Jian's voice softened again.
He didn't know why he was asking the question, but he asked it anyway.
"Hee-hee, four-year-old!"
"Tell me the truth!" Yang Jian pretended to be annoyed: "Do you really think I can't see it?"
Liuya shrank her little neck and said bitterly: "Okay, don't hit me, I'm seven years old this year...... It's just that this body hasn't grown for four or five years, and Master said that I was born with deficiencies, and it may be like this in the future, and my mind can only remain six or seven years old......"
"Humph!"
Yang Jian was annoyed for a while, he really fell in love with that old way!
opened the treasure map and took a look, and found that this broken map did not look like a fake, and the terrain depicted on it, Yang Jian had a slight impression, as if it was a place he had passed by.
"You master and apprentice, but you want to murder me?"
"No, no, no, Shangxian, you have misunderstood, how can we dare to harm you with this ability?" Liuya's small mouth flattened, and her eyes were a little red, "My master and he...... Maybe I won't come back this time if I leave...... Just leave me here, and I'll go find him myself. ”
Yang Jian couldn't help frowning, "What do you mean?"
"He just wants to get rid of me," Liuya pretended to be fine, but at the age of six or seven, she seemed to have seen all kinds of things in the world, and there was a distressing maturity.
She picked up her chopsticks and continued to feast, seemingly not taking these things to heart.
Yang Jian was silent for a while, and Liuya didn't say anything, just gulped down.
After a while, Liuya took the initiative to speak......
"He thinks I'm a burden. ”
Liuya wiped the greasy side of her mouth and whispered: "You've gotten rid of me several times before, anyway, I know which shops he often goes to sell the things he digs up, I'll wait for him here, I'll definitely be able to wait." ”
"You wait, I'll catch the old man and come back!"
Yang Jian got up and was about to go to find the old man, but when he saw the small figure of Liuya, he felt a sense of unbearability in his heart.
I can't bear to leave, and I can't bear to leave her alone, and I don't know what to do or say for a while.
......
Moments ago, the mouth of the town.
The unkempt old Taoist priest sneakily walked out, looked left and right a few times, and then smiled, looking as if he was interested.
Lao Dao took a big step and walked on the road as if relieved.
In a trance, a gust of wind blew, and the figure of the old Taoist priest disappeared, and the pedestrians around him didn't notice anything at all.
But on a white cloud directly above, the middle-aged monk who was meditating with his eyes closed opened his eyes, a smile on the corner of his mouth, and his figure disappeared.
A moment later, it was still the town.
The old way that had disappeared strangely reappeared dejectedly and appeared on the road.
As before he left, the pedestrians and vendors seemed to be blind, and no one looked at the old man.
Lao Dao limped, with his hands behind his back, and with an angry face, he walked towards the town.
There was a shallow footprint on his robe, a little bruise on the left side of his eye, and a few strands of his messy hair.
Lao Dao muttered vaguely as he walked, and finally couldn't help but jump to his feet and scold......
"Alas, I finally found a stupid boy with great luck and stuffed Liuya over...... It's bad luck for Lao Tzu! It's true! I ran into a monster in the second generation!"
"Bad luck, bad luck, it's really unlucky, Yuding is not very famous, how can his strength be so strong? It's really hidden, this bad luck is urging, but I just bumped into his apprentice!"
"I really lost my wife and broke my soldiers, I was beaten by a monster, and I have to go to give benefits to the monster's apprentice!
"Hmph, see if I don't find a chance to toss that kid to death! No matter what he interprets the second and third generations, I'm bah!"
The old way vented, and gradually lost his anger.
After all, it was he who calculated Yang Jian first, and he was taught a lesson by Master Yang Jian, and he couldn't say anything if he was not as good as a person.
When Lao Dao walked to the bottom of the restaurant, he had already returned to his original cowering appearance, and walked in with his head down.
As soon as she entered the private room, Liuya threw away the bowl excitedly......
"Master, your conscience has been discovered!"
Lao Dao could only laugh dryly.
"Humph!"
Yang Jian glared angrily, clenched his fists and pounced.
