The road is right under your feet

Chapter 154 If you are not smart, you will be cheated

Shirahoshi slowly approached the two men and poked their spines with his scabbard. "Hey, now that you're awake, don't play dead. Tell the truth."

The two men immediately became depressed. The tall man calmed down and said, "Master Bai, I...we were just following orders. You just asked us to teach you a lesson and interrogate you about the wonderful things. We are different from those people. We will never dare to do it again. Please forgive us this time."

The tall fat man nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, "We won't dare to do it again. Please forgive us this time."

Bai Xing said: "You don't seem to be very smart. I'm very curious, what kind of master can raise such a pair of clowns like you?"

The tall man laughed awkwardly, "Mr. Bai, you are joking."

The tall fat guy was about to say something when he was pinched by the tall guy and screamed in pain.

Bai Xing pulled away a little, "Okay, stop howling. If the patrol finds you, you'll be in big trouble."

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao.

There seemed to be some inexplicable noises in the wind, and 77 said in Bai Xing's sea of consciousness: [Master, a team of people is coming this way, and it is expected to arrive at the scene in five minutes.]

Bai Xing seemed to be thinking about something, thinking that the noise just now must have alarmed the nearby inspection team.

His heart moved, and his eyes fixed on the two of them, his eyes were full of ill intentions. The two of them didn't understand why, but they were still a little scalp numb by Bai Xing's stare, and they didn't dare to breathe.

Bai Xing waved his hand and a fireball flew out, burning the corpse on the ground to ashes.

He waved his hands again, clasped his hands together, and many streams of water gathered together, taking away the bloody air on the ground.

【Master, two minutes left. 】

Bai Xing nodded, "Got it."

The two thought he was talking to them and subconsciously exclaimed "Ah". By the time they reacted, the ropes on their bodies had been untied and Shirahoshi could not even be seen.

Fatty Gao immediately said "Pah", "What the hell, don't let this thing fall into my hands in the future, hehe."

"Oh? Whose hands did it fall into? Me?"

At this moment, a cold voice exploded from behind them. The two turned their heads stiffly, and when they saw the crowd of figures in the sky, they felt unwell.

Beads of cold sweat dripped down Fatty Gao's forehead, and he swallowed hard, "Um, Master Ning, we...we didn't mean that."

Ning Chengfeng said expressionlessly: "You should save these words for the Punishment Hall."

The two men looked ashen in an instant. The tall fat man fell to the ground, mumbling in a daze, "It's over."

How could the tall guy not know that he was just hit by Shirahoshi?

But now that things have come to this, the evidence that they violated the mountain rules is irrefutable, and they can no longer argue. They can only hate it in their hearts.

Ning Chengfeng waved his hand and said, "Take it away."

Suddenly, several people came out from behind, tied up the two men, and took them away.

......

As soon as Bai Xing returned to the yard, he collapsed on the recliner.

"What's going on every day?"

Then Bai Xing thought of Chen Ergou again. He had been chased and bitten by a group of mad dogs these past two days and had forgotten about the bruised little dog.

Shirahoshi sighed.

"Ergou, I can only say sorry to you first. It's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that those mad dogs are too crazy when they bite people."

Let’s talk about Chen Ergou. He has been waiting in Tingfeng Pavilion since dawn these past two days and has been sitting there all day long. People come and go in the restaurant, and everyone is friendly, but he has never seen that figure.

At nightfall, Scar lifted the window sill of the private room and looked down with a little anxiety.

"Ergou, let's go back. It's been a whole day. If he was going to come, he should have come a long time ago."

Chen Ergou remained silent, lowering his head and turning the teacup on the table. However, his eyes and eyebrows reflected in the tea revealed that his heart was not as calm as it appeared.

After a long while, he said softly, "Brother, wait a little longer."

After a long time, there was a loud bang, and the teacup on the table hit each other, making a crisp sound.

"Doesn't Mr. Bai really think too highly of us? If you want to treat us, then treat us. If you don't want to treat us, then don't treat us. Why is he playing tricks on us like this?"

Scar got angry when he thought of him. They had been waiting here for a whole day but no one showed up. The main reason was that he couldn't stand seeing Chen Ergou being so silent.

He immediately pulled up Chen Ergou who was still in the same position, "Ergou, let's go back. It's time to ring the bell. I'll find you a better alchemist tomorrow."

Chen Ergou did not move and let Scar drag him back to Hospital C.

However, the next day, before dawn, Chen Ergou set out for Tingfeng Pavilion.

The door was not open, so he sat on the steps at the door. Then he sat in the same private room for a long time, looking through the windowsill from time to time at the people coming and going below.

Scar led his brothers to the door.

Seeing Chen Ergou's look, Scar felt a little disappointed, but he didn't dare to say anything. He could only stand by and make people laugh with a few brothers.

Chen Ergou smiled, but his smile was uglier than crying, "Brother, have I been abandoned again?"

They seemed to have paused for a moment, and Scar bent down. "No, we brothers will always be here, right?"

Although he was looking at Chen Ergou, his words were addressed to the people behind him.

After hearing this, several people said in unison: "Yes."

Chen Ergou was silent for a moment, looked down at his unconscious arm, and then hammered it several times in succession. Scar was the first to react and stopped him.

"Ergou, calm down."

Chen Ergou said in a hoarse voice: "Why doesn't it hurt?"

Everyone suddenly didn't know what to say.

Chen Ergou stared out the window at the night with empty eyes, which was as dark as he was. "Should people like me go to hell?"

Several people felt a tightness in their chests and were extremely uncomfortable.

Scar gritted his teeth and said, "I'd like to ask Mr. Bai why he is so..."

Why did you give him hope and then crush it with your own hands?

The last few words were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say them. He tried to calm down, gave a look to the others, and then chopped them down with his knife.

Chen Ergou suddenly collapsed in Scar's arms, and they returned to Courtyard C in the dark night in shame.

Scar put Chen Ergou down, his eyes flickering, and turned away.

Before leaving, he left a message, "You don't have to follow me."

The feet of several people instantly took root, looked at each other, and shook their heads.

Then he tucked the corner of Chen Ergou's quilt so that he could sleep more peacefully.
