Chapter Thirty-Two: Three People Travel Together

  I looked up at Dongqiz who was washing her face and furrowing my brow, could it be that she is the undercover agent Mu Ronghang mentioned? No... if that's really the case, why would she still wear her protective amulet on her body? And also let me see it so easily?

  I took another look at the copper coin in my hand, and then pretended to be unaware of anything, standing aside and waiting for Dong Qizi to settle it. After she finished, I also cleaned up the wound and prepared to go back and change into a clean set of clothes.

  Before I even reached my small room, I heard a miserable cry coming from inside. At this time, Zhao Feiyu and Kong Yi had already prepared clean clothes for me outside.

  I pointed to the inner room, Zhao Feiyu frowned and didn't speak. Kong Yisi just put all the clean clothes in my hands and then gestured for me to go to the side house to change.

  I had everything settled, and as I pushed open the door to come out, Old Man Guo was also pushing open his door to walk out.

  My eyes collided with his, and in that moment, I saw the killing intent in Old Guo's eyes. However, this killing intent quickly disappeared, and I couldn't help but suspect that I had misseen it again.

  As soon as he saw Old Man Guo come out, Zhao Feiyu ran up and asked: "Master, what did they say?"

  I also walked to the side of Old Man Guo, and took a glance towards the inner room. At the entrance of the inner room, I saw that short guy lying on the ground in agony, with my meteorite iron stuck in his abdomen. No need to say more, this was definitely Old Man Guo's handiwork.

  I walked in, pulled out my meteorite iron, and the dwarf groaned in pain. I was about to leave when the dwarf grabbed my hand, using all his strength to say: I... I...

  I shouted at Old Guo: They are willing to accept him.

  Mr. Guo nodded and sat down beside Zhao Feiyu, waiting for me to finish up. I took out a small bottle from my bag and poured the contents into the dwarf's mouth in one go. Then, holding an emergency kit, I started helping the dwarf treat his wounds. I looked around and saw that tall guy sitting stupidly on one side, as if he had seen something scary.

  I don't know what Old Man Guo did to them, but I can be sure that Old Man Guo absolutely didn't show any mercy.

  I walked up to Gao Ge, patted his face and looked at him expressionlessly, saying: "Are you possessed by a ghost? No, that's not right. As Huang Shi Bo's apprentice, shouldn't being possessed be normal for you? Are you still afraid?"

  The tall one seemed to have reacted instantly, and when he saw me, he subconsciously took a step back and exclaimed: You are all monsters! Monsters!

  Monster? Upon hearing this title, I thought to myself that perhaps Old Man Guo had done something outrageous and unjust to him earlier. My interest was piqued, and I looked at the scene outside where Old Man Guo seemed to be saying something to Zhao Feiyu while Kong Yi tended to the dwarf's wounds. I turned to ask the tall man: Was the man who interrogated you also a monster?

  Hearing my question, Gao raised his head and looked at me. His eyes were very scattered, as if he had already lost his mind.

  "You... can still live without a heart, because you have a husband and children. But he's different... the feeling I get from him is like he just crawled out of his coffin yesterday." Gao said in a hushed tone, looking around the room at Old Man Guo.

  I completely agree with Gao's description of Old Man Guo. It reminds me of his recent abnormal behavior, and I have to say that Gao's words make a lot of sense.

  Especially when Old Guo suddenly fainted, it was as if he had died... At that time, I really thought something had happened to Old Guo.

  "So you're actually afraid of this." I said casually, trying to get more information out.

  Gao shook his head, as if unwilling to say anything more.

  I was about to ask a few more questions when Old Guo suddenly appeared behind me and asked, "Little Lin, did you get any useful information?"

  When did Old Guo arrive? I didn't notice at all!

  Although I was a bit nervous, I still said with a relaxed tone: This guy's mouth is still as hard as ever, and he won't say anything. It seems that Huang Shi-bo's education has its own set of rules. However, that short guy is different.

  Old Guo nodded, as if agreeing with me. I smiled at him and asked tentatively: Uncle Guo, when did you get anemia?

  Old Guo naturally knew what I meant, and he said with a straight face: Lao Mao is ill. Your dad knows about this matter, it's nothing to worry about. However, from now on you all need to be careful. If not for my temporary divination, calculating that there would be changes, perhaps right now none of you would know where you are.

  Mr. Guo's words made me somewhat puzzled, are there variables? Variables... where?

  I looked at Old Man Guo, furrowed my brow and asked carefully: "Uncle Guo, can you tell me in detail?"

  Old Guo looked at me and pointed to Dong Qingzi outside, saying in a low voice: That's the variable. At that time, I woke up and felt something was wrong, so this is a temporary divination, calculating Dong Qingzi's mistake. Actually, you shouldn't go find her. In that case, we can catch a big fish.

  What Old Man Guo said left me somewhat perplexed. I know that Old Man Guo is considered a high-ranking figure in the Taoist community, but now he's speaking in such an abstruse and mysterious way, how can I possibly guess what he means? It's incomprehensible!

  Old Guo looked at me with a bewildered expression, but he just gave me a white eye and said to himself: Forget it, I won't tell you. Anyway, you wouldn't understand even if I told you.

  Am I being rejected?

  Guo Lao Tou saw that Kong Yee had already treated the wound of the dwarf, so he drove us out and didn't forget to tell us to close the door.

  As I walked out, Zhao Feiyu was propping his chin with both hands, as if thinking about something. Dong Qizi was squatting on one side, staring at Zhao Feiyu in a daze.

  As I walked over, Zhao Feiyu raised his head and asked me: Is your wound okay?

  I shook my head and sat down next to Zhao Feiyu, then looked at him and asked: Why didn't you let me kill them? It could have been done.

  Zhao Feiyu heard this question and just smiled, saying in a deliberately casual tone: If it's just because they say you're a monster, then you'll go on a rampage and kill people. In that case, aren't you really no different from a monster?

  After hearing Zhao Feiyu's explanation, I think I understand his good intentions. Sometimes, I think Zhao Feiyu is a bit of an idiot because no matter what the situation is, he always manages to put on a silly face. Even when I bully him, he still endures it. But in some situations, Zhao Feiyu is smarter than all of us. He thinks far ahead, unlike me who only knows how to be controlled by emotions and lose my rationality.

  I didn't know what to say and just patted Zhao Feiyu's shoulder in gratitude.

  Zhao Feiyu just smiled and said to me with an unchanged expression: Just treat me to a good meal when we get back.

  I felt a bit helpless, Zhao Feiyu's role change was always so fast! I could only helplessly nod my head and continue waiting for Old Man Guo's interrogation to end.

  Not long after, Zhao Feiyu suddenly asked us: Do you feel that my master has changed?

  After hearing Zhao Feiyu's words, he didn't know whether he wanted to comfort Zhao Feiyu or what. He just said lightly: We've all changed... haven't we?

  "We three people, only I changed. You two don't fight with me!" I understood what Kong Yiren meant and immediately replied.

  Dong Qizai just squatted on one side, quietly listening to us talk. The three of us naturally couldn't chat too familiarly either. Zhao Feiyu smiled casually and continued: Yeah, Kong Yiyi, you're becoming more and more likable to girls! Unfortunately, you're a monk, damn it! I'm so handsome, why doesn't anyone like me?!

  I cooperated and said: Feiyu, I still have your childhood photos. At that time, you were so cute, now you are absolutely grown up. Ah, saying more is tears... As for me, I am still elegant and refined. As for Kong Yi, he rushed forward on the road to becoming a warm man.

  Dong Qizai stood up and said to me: Master, I'm going out to play. This is my first time here, and I think the scenery is quite good.

  I nodded and said to her: Okay, go ahead. Be careful on the road.

  Dong Qizai stood up and walked out very relaxedly.

  As I saw Dong Qizai walking further and further away, I only felt that there seemed to be something following her all the time. I didn't pay attention to it either, thinking that this was probably just my illusion.

  "When Master woke up, he didn't say anything, just told me to find you as soon as possible. I don't know why. Kong Yiyi, what you said is right, we've all changed. Master has become more and more unpredictable, Mu Shu is the same. Xiao Lin has become more and more unable to control his emotions, your kindness has become more and more... As for me... more and more cowardly." Zhao Feiyu said with his head down, speaking incoherently.

  I don't know why he had such an idea either, I looked at him and didn't say a word for half a day.

  "Now that things are settled here, let's go to Heizhugou. I want to be honest with Qingzi and not feel guilty towards her every day. Even if she hates me, at least...I can hold my head up and look at her." Kong Yiyi spoke his mind frankly.

  "I still have to go find my husband, then you all can go." For some reason, I always had a feeling of escapism towards Hei Zhu Gou. I don't want to recall what happened back then...

  Zhao Feiyu and Kong Yi didn't say much, just nodded slightly. As if suddenly remembering something, Zhao Feiyu stood up abruptly, dusting off the dirt on his pants.

  "The three of us have a relatively objective fighting power, so let's go." Zhao Feiyu surprisingly put on an air of a heroic sacrifice, which left me somewhat astonished.

  "What are you going to do?" I looked at Zhao Feiyu's expression and for a moment, I really didn't know what he wanted to do.

  Zhao Feiyu took out three backpacks from the room where I changed clothes earlier, and those bags were indeed ours.

  "I already know what's going on in that tomb. Let's go, there's nothing for us to do here." Zhao Feiyu was the first to put on his backpack and get ready to leave.
