Free Web NovelChapter 1733: Chapter 1343: Did These Two Come Out Here... to Sleep?
Seeing this, the Medicine Immortal Old Man changed his expression faster than flipping a page, brimming with energy, or rather, looking quite amused at Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue lying on the ground. He raised his voice and said, "So, are you two still going to fight? I didn’t see clearly just now, as I was too far away. If you still intend to fight, I’ll find a place with a great view to stand and watch the rare spectacle!"
Even though the Medicine Immortal Old Man’s change of tone was so swift, the other three present didn’t have a chance to react!
Especially Duo Shu, whose face showed a hint of sympathy!
Who is our Hall Master, after all?
Probably, in this lifetime, he has never been ridiculed in such a way!
And, that Crown Prince of Great Zhou, although his status is not as high as our Hall Master, he doesn’t seem like someone who can be ridiculed either!
This Wu Xi truly relies on being old and sells his age, seeking death!
Of course, he wouldn’t kindly remind the Medicine Immortal Old Man!
If our Hall Master and that Zhou Mu really got angry and could eliminate this Wu Xi, it would be good, saving trouble! It’d save a lot of hassle in the future!
Thinking this, Duo Shu’s face, hidden under the black clothes, involuntarily showed a look of schadenfreude. He was waiting, waiting for our Hall Master and Zhou Mu to become embarrassed and angry, even though they couldn’t move now due to the Fly-head Green Soft Muscle Powder, but given their statuses, they would undoubtedly fulfill their threats in anger and fulfill their promises once they recovered!
But, Wu Xi waited for a while, and still did not hear the voice of our Hall Master. He lowered his head, glanced at the two lying on the ground, and saw that the expressions on their faces were unexpectedly unperturbed!
As if...
As if they hadn’t heard Wu Xi’s words at all!
But, could they really not have heard?
"Tired, can’t fight anymore! Sorry to disappoint you, senior. You probably won’t see a good show!" Zhou Mu’s voice sounded.
"Move along, didn’t you see this City Lord basking in the moonlight? You’re blocking my light!" Shi Wujue’s voice came through.
Hearing these words from the two, Duo Shu was thunderstruck, his face full of disbelief!
This response?
Did they hear the Medicine Immortal Old Man’s words and respond to his question?
The answer was affirmative!
But the content of this response was wrong!
Weren’t they supposed to become embarrassed and angry and blow up?
It also didn’t seem right. It seemed as if these two knew it was Wu Xi who underhandedly dealt with them, and they showed no signs of rage...
"Haha... So it’s over! Good, good that it’s over..." The Medicine Immortal Old Man, hearing this, appeared somewhat embarrassed, but his voice sounded relieved. He raised his hand to touch his nose and the next moment, turned around, and pulled Duo Shu to run...
Duo Shu, still in a daze, was suddenly pulled by the Medicine Immortal Old Man, stumbling forward, dragged for quite a distance. Seeing his speed slowing down, his face involuntarily showed an expression of doubt and uncertainty as he looked at him, muttering, "My City Lord let you move so he could have his light, and you really moved over?"
Wu Xi, the unrestrained Medical Immortal Wu Xi, since when did he become so obedient?
"Of course! If I didn’t move, wouldn’t I just be inviting a beating?" the Medicine Immortal Old Man replied with conviction.
Hearing this, Duo Shu’s face flashed a trace of doubt and uncertainty, "What do you mean?"
"What do I mean? What do you think I mean? Just what the words say!" The Medicine Immortal Old Man glanced back at the place they left, then patted Duo Shu on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Young man, when wandering the Itinerant World, you must be careful, especially when dealing with such monstrous kids, you have to be even more cautious!"
Hearing this, the Medicine Immortal Old Man couldn’t help but frown.
What are you talking about?
As Shi Wujue’s reliable assistant, living his life in the shadows, he is naturally very cautious, yet in Wu Xi’s mouth, the words just turned sour?
An unabashed old person relying on age to act superior!
Duo Shu couldn’t help cursing silently in his heart!
Just because you’re old, you’re impressive?
Not every young person is a kid, as if you have kids!
A solitary person!
Can only take verbal advantage!
"Young man, do you think that Fly-head Green Soft Muscle Powder can make those two monstrous boys quiet for long?" Without waiting for Duo Shu’s response, the Medicine Immortal Old Man continued, stopping his steps, stroking his beard, and said with a raised eyebrow.
Duo Shu was taken aback by the words.
"Only for the time of an incense stick!" The Medicine Immortal Old Man extended a finger, speaking with undeniable confidence, "Given their cultivation, even if they are exhausted at this moment, it would take only the time of an incense stick to neutralize the Fly-head Green. We’ve already delayed with them for a while, if we delay any longer, once they shake off the drug effects, we’ll surely get beaten! When better to run than now!"
Saying this, the Medicine Immortal Old Man touched his nose and once again spoke with certainty, "Moreover, with this old man’s sharp eyes, these two kids are quite vindictive. Today, we used silver needles to trap them; they’ll surely look to settle things with us..."
"You used the silver needles!" Duo Shu retorted immediately.
"You gave the old man the silver needles! The old man doesn’t carry such mild poisons!" The Medicine Immortal Old Man stared back, not giving an inch!
Duo Shu was left speechless!
"Young man, take the old man’s word for it, run quickly! Even if your master won’t trouble you, that Zhou lad is quite a handful. It would be best to avoid him for a few days. If that Zhou lad is determined to teach you a lesson, not even your master can protect you!"
The word of the Medicine Immortal Old Man made a lot of sense!
Duo Shu was momentarily stunned by the words, but then he spoke up, "Crown Prince Mu is about the same level as me, I may not really be afraid of him!"
As he said this, Duo Shu wasn’t quite sure!
He naturally knew of his own Hall Master’s skills. Since Zhou Mu could go toe-to-toe with his Hall Master, logically speaking, his level should indeed be a bit higher...
"Hehe, don’t forget, there’s also my disciple... she’s not an easy one to deal with!" The Medicine Immortal Old Man said gleefully upon hearing this.
Upon hearing this, Duo Shu’s body noticeably stiffened!
Right!
There’s also Gu Changsheng!
If Zhou Mu was a tough bone to chew, then the woman Gu Changsheng was a piece of raw meat too slippery to handle!
A real headache!
Especially since they couldn’t really make a move and tear it all open!
They still had fears!
Gu Changsheng was still useful to them... and to the Hall Master...
"So?" Duo Shu looked at the Medicine Immortal Old Man, thinking that he and Medical Immortal Wu Xi were pretty much in the same boat by now?
If their Hall Master and Zhou Mu were about to vent their anger, it seemed neither of them could escape...
"So..." Upon hearing this, the Medicine Immortal Old Man pondered for a moment, stomped his foot, and said, "So if we don’t run now, when will we? You go that way, and I’ll go this way, hide out for a couple of days, and come back once those two freaks have forgotten about this..."
Saying this, the Medicine Immortal Old Man had already started running in the direction he had chosen for himself...
His fleeing figure was very stimulating to Duo Shu’s vision...
He originally wasn’t really that scared...
But, thinking of Zhou Mu and the difficult Gu Changsheng, a bit of fear crept into his heart. With Wu Xi running like that, Duo Shu instinctively started sprinting in the opposite direction...
Humans are a very strange species, they have brains that can think, but precisely because of that, sometimes they also act foolishly, such as following the crowd...
And at this moment, Duo Shu was exactly like that!
In certain situations, all of his usual prudence and scheming disappeared, and instinctively, he just followed the actions of those around him...
With the Medicine Immortal Old Man and Duo Shu gone, amidst the vast prairie and under the faint moonlight, without Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue fighting, and without anyone watching the show, it suddenly became very quiet...
And in that quietness, on the trampled pasture, lay two tall figures, their faces equally handsome under the hazy moonlight as they looked at the sky...
Handsome!
Very handsome!
Different styles, but both extremely handsome!
So beautiful, they didn’t seem like boys of this world!
However, at this moment, neither of them spoke, unusually quiet!
As if they really were exhausted from the Fly-head Green, completely worn out...
But whether they were really exhausted, or it was truly the effect of the Fly-head Green Soft Muscle Powder that rendered them so quiet, only the two of them knew!
Yet, neither of them spoke, nor did they break the silence!
The quiet atmosphere lingered around them, their actions synchronized, lying on the grass, motionless, looking up at the celestial mechanisms, not sure what they were thinking...
And just as the two lay on the ground, motionless and silent, a shadow like a ghost, silently, and lifelessly, snuck into a place beyond their detection...
Looking at the two lying on the ground, waiting patiently, a pair of Phoenix Eyes, somewhat embarrassed...
Dammit!
What’s going on here?
In the guesthouse, Gu Changsheng, unable to quell her worries, finally managed to coerce Diao Chan into handing over clothes, following the traces left by her master, and caught up!
Yet, when she caught up, this was the scene she witnessed!
Amidst the vast prairie, the soft grass underfoot, two tall men, side by side...
Uh...
Not side by side, they were two feet apart...
Lying there in one place, silent, gazing at the moon, quietly...
For a moment, Gu Changsheng thought she saw wrong. Were these two not out here to fight?
How, could it be that Diao Chan and the others faked the report, and actually...
These two came out here... to sleep?
Such a scene, no matter how she looked at it, was jarring...
