C86 (1/2)
The two snakes probably knew that they would not be able to escape death, so they had no choice but to abandon their physical bodies and use a golden cicada escape plan. They thought that they had deceived the old beggar by lying to him. Did he not know that the old beggar was not a vegetarian either? He had also figured it out and had chased them all the way here. Sadly, both sides miscalculated this time. The old beggar did not calculate that they would be separated, and they did not calculate that the old beggar had already identified their tricks and was keeping an eye on them.
Therefore, I said, ”If they were to calculate that you would use the Constellation Qi to kill them, I don't think that they would be able to chase after Leng Wuzui even if they were beaten to death.” This sentence was said casually by me in order to catch up with the old beggar's words. There wasn't much meaning in it, so after I finished speaking, I realized that it was better to carefully analyze the first part of the old beggar's sentence, which was Liu Gong Sha that he mentioned! It's like texting each other, each of us asking a bunch of questions, with the key questions probably in front, and the recipient answering the last one, not remembering to answer the more important questions.
So I asked, ”What did you just say about Liu Gong Sha and how he had the Yin Qi on him?”
”You don't know what Liu Gong Sha is?” The old beggar seemed very surprised!
I shook my head.
”Then when we were drinking on Hubei Road, I said you didn't ask Liu Gong Sha, but now I remember asking!”
”When you were drinking, did you mention Liu Gong Sha? You ate up all the food I ordered!”
The old beggar was getting more and more anxious. ”Why didn't I say anything? I remember that I seriously told you before I left!”
When he left, did he tell me that Liu Gong Sha died? Why can't I remember? I only remember him stuffing meat into his mouth when he left, and I even laughed at how bedraggled he was. I thought about it again. When he was stuffing the meat, he seemed to have spoken, but he seemed to be talking about quicksand, drawing sand and the like. I remembered that I said that this old beggar was good, and he even knew about the art of drawing sand.
”Quicksand …” ”Sand Toss …” As I spoke, my heart thumped, suddenly enlightened. This isn't Quicksand and Painted Sand, this is Liu Gong Sha and Molten Evil! When I thought about this, I became angry and said angrily, ”Can you speak seriously? Can you understand what you are saying? It's fortunate that you mentioned it again today, otherwise you would have missed out on such a big matter! ”
When the old beggar saw that I was angry, he probably remembered that I didn't explain clearly about the affair back then, so he shamelessly said, ”Aiyo, my little brother, don't be angry. If you don't know, I'll explain it to you!”
At this moment, Leng Wuzui walked over, ”I'm going to the hospital!”
I suddenly remembered that Shui Qingling was still lying in the hospital, so I said to the old beggar, ”Come with us, let's chat as we go!”
”Alright, I'd like to see how you died!” The old beggar suddenly changed from his previous frivolous attitude to pointing at Leng Wuzui.
Leng Wuzui and I were stunned for a moment. We didn't know where the old beggar's words had come from, and from the looks of it, he wasn't joking.
”What did you say?”
The old beggar threw the snakeskin bag onto his shoulder and said, ”He was shot with a mulberry arrow and was extremely shady. If he were to go to the hospital, it would only take an hour for him to see the good fortune. Of course, it would be disastrous!”
”Didn't you take care of everything in my room?”
”Your room is not worth mentioning, and it is not the crux of the matter. The most important thing is the arrow on your body!” The old beggar walked up to him and pointed at his back with his finger. ”It's the source of all this trouble!”
The old beggar meant that the mulberry arrow he had just mentioned was behind the Cold Exemplary, which I understood because I had accidentally seen the little stick twice. So, this small wooden stick really does have some background. It's called Sang Jian, and it's just as I thought before, this arrow really does have a very important role to play.
Leng Wuzui touched his back but didn't find anything. Let alone him, even I couldn't see it now.
”But I'm worried about Qing Ling. For her, I can do anything and lose anything.” Leng Wuzui said.
”Ouch, look at you, you're so weak!” The old beggar glared at him, ”I didn't say I wouldn't let you go, it's just that you haven't made it to the point where you can go wherever you want.”
The old beggar is right on this point. If the cold extraordinary were to suffer from extreme Yin energy, he really wouldn't be able to go to the hospital. No wonder why he kept delaying him. However, it was still a little early for him to say that it was a little early for me, because I didn't even know what it was called Liu Gong Sha. So, I asked, ”You've already talked about Liu Gong Sha for half a day, what exactly is Liu Gong Sha?!”
”Speaking of Liu Gong Sha, I think that we should first talk about Liu Gong here. What was Liu Gong? ”Liu Gong is the bow that is placed on top of the coffin. The bow is made from willow branches, and the arrows are made from mulberry branches. They are paired together and placed in front of the coffin …”
