"Master …" Yuan Ya appeared behind Xiao Jian like a ghost. "What's the matter?"
"Hmph …" Xiao Jian scolded unhappily. "What does this old man have to tell you?"
"Yes, master!" Yuan Ya left even more quietly than before. Xiao Jian actually didn't notice Yuan Ya's figure leaving.
"Damn it …" Xiao Jian couldn't help but curse. "Who's whose master!"
"Fellow Xiao, what's the matter?" Xiao Hua, who had his eyes closed, had no choice but to open them.
In the past few days, there had been too many people in the Jiang Chao Temple. There were devout people, but there were even more opportunistic people. There were even a few villains suppressed by the Cloak Gang in Longevity Town who came to the Jiang Chao Temple to sound out the situation. This made Xiao Hua very impatient.
He originally had many methods to kill Zheng Mou and the others, but he chose to use Heavenly Thunder. Afterwards, wasn't he just trying to hide in peace?
Today, he saw Xiao Jian, who had been too busy to come to the west wing, come here at night. He knew that there was something troublesome and had to ask.
"Senior, please take a look!" Xiao Jian gave the goose feather letter to Xiao Hua and told him his thoughts.
"Oh, it's that little girl!"
Xiao Hua nodded slightly. He didn't like Xiao Jian's unscrupulous and lies, but he still approved of Xiao Jian's gratitude. Now that he saw the goose feather letter, he thought of the sedan chair that day and asked, "It's already late. What do you think?"
"This letter was sent in the afternoon close to dusk!" Xiao Jian said honestly. "As for who it was, disciple already doesn't know …"
"Master …" Yuan Ya, who had just disappeared, appeared again and said in a low voice, "It was a white-haired old man. He looked very anxious and hurried.
He gave this strange letter to disciple and left in a hurry … "
"That old man is probably a servant of the Hao Family!"
Xiao Jian looked at Yuan Ya and then looked at the night outside. "Although it's already late, disciple has no choice but to go!
That day, disciple clearly told senior that if I ran out of copper coins, I would have to go to the Hao Family's young miss to eat!
Now that the Hao Family's young miss is in trouble, disciple naturally has to help! "
"What else did that old man say?" Xiao Hua ignored Xiao Jian and turned to look at Yuan Ya and asked again.
"That old man asked me to tell Master that no matter how late it is, as long as Master is free, he can go!"
Yuan Ya also answered honestly, "But Master was very busy at that time. He didn't wait for me to say this before asking me to leave!"
"Haha, since that's the case, then just go. Why have you come to this old man's place?" Xiao Hua looked at Xiao Jian and asked curiously.
"Since Squire Hao said that he was asking 'Daoist Xiao' for help, it must be a great disaster. If it weren't for Daoist Xiao, he wouldn't be able to deal with it!"
Xiao Jian smiled and said, "Disciple knows his own limits. It's difficult to save the Hao Family's Eldest Miss from this abyss of suffering. Senior, please help me!"
Xiao Hua didn't know much about Longevity Town. That Hao Family's Eldest Young Miss was one of the most unique people in the beautiful scenery. Thinking of that afternoon's calm and respect, Xiao Hua could only stand up, look at Xiao Yun in the wooden barrel, and say with a bitter smile: "This trouble hasn't been solved yet, and now another trouble has come!
There are so many troubles in this world! "
"This girl …" Xiao Jian had never asked before, but he could not help but feel curious.
"You don't understand. It's pointless to talk to you!" Xiao Hua was not polite at all. He waved his hand and said, "This old man will go with you to the Hao Family!"
"Thank you, senior!" Xiao Jian laughed and hurriedly called out to Yuan Ya, "Ya!
Quick, you run fast. Quickly go down the mountain and find an ox cart … "
"Why find an ox cart?" Xiao Hua asked curiously.
Xiao Jian smiled and said, "It's already late at night. If I wait until we reach Squire Hao's house, wouldn't it be daybreak?"
Xiao Hua frowned and said, "Can't we just fly over?"
"Senior …" Xiao Jian was a bit surprised, "You can fly?"
"Haha ~" Xiao Hua laughed. That's right, if it was ten days ago, let alone fly, he wouldn't even be able to stand steadily!
"Let's go!"
Xiao Hua clapped his hand and took out a flying talisman. Using what little magic power he had left, he placed it on his own body. He then grabbed Xiao Jian's neck and said, "Don't be afraid. Just point out the location of Squire Hao's house to this old man!"
"Yes, disciple understands!"
Xiao Jian didn't feel awkward being grabbed by Xiao Hua's neck at all. Instead, he felt that Xiao Hua was even more mysterious.
Xiao Hua activated the flying talisman and flew out of the Daoist temple with Xiao Jian. They flew into the dark night. Yuan Ya jumped onto the banyan tree and stared at Xiao Hua's back. His eyes were filled with envy and fanaticism. Even after Xiao Hua's figure disappeared, he was still unwilling to leave!
That night, Yuan Ya didn't play his mournful musical instrument, which was a rare occurrence.
Under Xiao Jian's guidance, Xiao Hua quickly found the location of Squire Hao's house among the tens of thousands of lights.
He saw that it was a manor that was several mu in size. The manor was brightly lit and it looked very lively.
Xiao Hua only used his divine sense to scan the manor and roughly knew what was going on inside. Thus, he brought Xiao Jian to a place not far from the manor. He looked at the door of Squire Hao's house that was also hung with a few lanterns and said to Xiao Jian, "Daoist Xiao, in front of others, this Xiao is your follower. You should do whatever you need to do. If you encounter anything abnormal, this Xiao will naturally act!
Do you understand? "
"Yes, this disciple understands!"
Xiao Jian nodded. He smiled and pointed at his cloth bag and the peach wood sword in it and said, "Otherwise, this disciple wouldn't have taken these things!"
"En ~" Xiao Hua nodded.
Then, Xiao Jian cupped his hands towards Xiao Hua and walked towards the door of Squire Hao's house. Xiao Hua closed his eyes and put his hands in the sleeves of his Daoist robe and slowly followed behind Xiao Jian.
Xiao Hua wasn't familiar with Longevity Town and was even more unfamiliar with Squire Hao's house. Although he had seen a bit, he was still confused. Since it was like this, why not let Xiao Jian take the lead and make things clear?
If it was really worth Xiao Hua taking action, then it wouldn't be too late for Xiao Hua to take action!
"Aiyo … Daoist Xiao!
Daoist Xiao!! "
Outside the door of Squire Hao's house, there was a white-haired old man. That old man had been looking in another direction, but when he heard the footsteps behind him and turned around to see Xiao Jian's figure, he couldn't help but be overjoyed. He hurriedly rushed out of the house and said with a smile, "You really came!
This old man has been waiting here for you for more than two hours!
I thought you wouldn't come!
Who knew … "
As he spoke, the old man looked behind Xiao Jian with some confusion and asked curiously, "It seems like it's not easy to come here from Squire Jiang Chao Temple?"
"Hehe ~" Although Xiao Jian liked the old man's respect, his expression didn't change at all. He cupped his hands and said, "When this Xiao received your house's goose feather letter, I knew that there was a great secret inside, and it was also a big matter!
However, in the past few days, there were indeed too many people coming to my Squire Jiang Chao Temple!
Many things were urgent, so I had no choice but to deal with those even more urgent matters.
When I had to deal with the matters that I had to deal with personally, then I handed over some matters that could be avoided to my disciple.
I brought this Daoist friend to your house!
I wonder who this old man is … "
"Oh, this old man is Squire Hao Yulong of Squire Hao Mansion!"
The old man hurriedly smiled and said, "This afternoon, this old man brought Squire Hao's goose feather letter to Squire Jiang Chao Temple to meet Daoist Xiao!"
Seeing that Xiao Jian didn't answer his question, Hao Yulong didn't dare to ask anymore and hurriedly said, "It's just that there are too many good people in Squire Jiang Chao Temple. This old man saw that Daoist Xiao couldn't find the time, so I gave the goose feather letter to your disciple and …"
At this point, Hao Yulong hurriedly stopped and said with a smile, "However, this old man told your disciple that no matter how late it was, as long as Daoist Xiao was free, he had to come!
This old man knew that Daoist Xiao would definitely keep his promise, so I've been waiting here!
Come, come, my squire has been eagerly waiting for Daoist Xiao's arrival! "
As he spoke, Hao Yulong hurriedly asked Xiao Jian to come forward. At the same time, he also very politely nodded to Xiao Hua.
Xiao Hua didn't mind. He grinned and closed his eyes again.
Following Hao Yulong to the entrance of the Hao Mansion, Xiao Jian felt a bit emotional as he looked at the entrance of the cave. He understood in his heart that for a big family like Squire Hao in Longevity Town, the entrance wouldn't be opened very often. Unless it was an important guest, they would have to go through the side entrance.
He had also been to Squire Lu's house before, but every time he entered through the side entrance, he had never received such courtesy. Now that Squire Hao had opened the entrance, Xiao Jian had already received a courtesy that he had never received before.
"Quick, inform the squire that Daoist Xiao from Squire Jiang Chao Temple has arrived!"
Hao Yulong immediately shouted towards the entrance as soon as he reached the entrance. There was a similar response from inside, and the sound of footsteps hurriedly went away.
"Squire Hao ~" Seeing how respectful the Hao Mansion was, Xiao Jian's heart couldn't help but become nervous again. He glanced at Xiao Hua who seemed to be asleep behind him and whispered to Hao Yulong, "What illness does Miss Hao have?
Why is there such a big lineup?
If possible, I would like to ask Squire Hao to reveal a thing or two in advance! "
"Ai, if it's an ordinary illness, there's naturally no need to invite Daoist Xiao!"
Hao Yulong seemed to have something that he couldn't say, so he only sighed and said, "This matter is hard to explain in a few words. I'll have to ask Daoist Xiao to move your toes. Once you enter my mansion, you'll naturally know."
"Oh …" Seeing that Hao Yulong didn't say anything, Xiao Jian could only nod his head, but the doubts in his heart grew even stronger.
After entering the Hao Mansion's entrance, a few servants wearing green clothes and small hats immediately came up to greet them. These servants had respectful expressions on their faces, as well as the green bricks, green tiles, carved beams, and painted pillars along the way, and even the strange flowers and plants in the night didn't attract Xiao Jian's attention. He had always been wondering what exactly happened to Miss Hao.
After passing through a fragrant garden, he was met with a white wall that was as tall as two people. On the wall, there were strange windows that looked like fans, flags, fishes, and birds. A fat old man was standing in front of the only moon gate on the wall. He was wearing a bright official's robe.
