Chapter 229 Weird old man
Uncle Gui had always been taciturn and solitary, but this time he wanted to go down the mountain with the shadow guard, presumably for the sake of the Mu family.Thinking of this, Mu Hanhai has no reason to disagree.

After Uncle Ghost finished speaking, without waiting for Mu Hanhai to respond, he leaned on his crutches tremblingly and walked down the mountain, gradually disappearing into the night.

Mu Tianen didn't seem surprised by this.But Mu Jiangou was very surprised by this situation.Grandpa's strictness is well known in the Mu family.He has never seen it before, who would dare to interrupt Grandpa's speech.

Now this Uncle Ghost dared to interrupt Grandpa's words in front of outsiders.What is his background?Mu Jiangou only remembered that since he could remember, he only remembered that this old man was guarding the chessboard platform to prevent his disciples from entering at will. He thought he was just an ordinary old man.

Not to mention Mu Jiangou, even Mu Tianen only knew that his father attached great importance to this old man. As for whether he was a martial arts practitioner or not, he had no idea at all about his strength.

"Oh, interesting." Mao Dawei laughed. "In that case, Shadow Guard, you can go down the mountain with this old gentleman. Remember, take care of the old man."

"It's really troublesome." The shadow guard complained.

As soon as the voice fell, and the shadow guard was not seen moving, his figure had already disappeared into the night.Just like a drop of ink blending into the thick night...

After Uncle Ghost and Shadow Guard left, Mao Dawei drank the hot tea in front of him, stood up and said, "Patriarch Mu, it's getting late, and tomorrow morning, I have to go to Xiao's house to heal my disciple. "

Mu Hanhai also stood up, and said, "Well, then Miracle Doctor Mao should go to bed early. I'll send Miracle Doctor Mao to the guest room."

After finishing speaking, he said to Ah Zi and the others: "Clean up and go to rest early."

When everyone was gone, Ah Zi pouted and said to the senior sister: "Master sister, why are you pinching me? That genius doctor Mao is really good, with such a vicious mouth. Return the genius doctor Mao, the goddamn doctor."

The elder sister has long been used to Ah Zi's straightforward character, she rolled her eyes and said, "Ah Zi, don't say things that you shouldn't say."

"How can I talk nonsense?" Ah Zi pursed her lips, and continued: "Also, why did the old Patriarch send Uncle Gui to make people look down upon him?"

After a pause, Ah Zi blinked her big eyes again, and asked curiously: "Elder Sister, do you think Uncle Gui is really powerful? The Patriarch values ​​him so much."

While clearing the teacup, the elder sister said, "How do I know this. But you forgot, when you were young, you were playful, ran into the chessboard platform, and accidentally dropped your favorite doll into the cliff. Who will help you the next day?" Picked it up?"

If the elder sister didn't mention it, Ah Zi really forgot about it.She remembered that when she was a child, she liked a doll very much and would hold it wherever she went.

One day, while the ghost guarding the chessboard platform was dozing off, she sneaked into the chessboard villa to play, but accidentally dropped her favorite doll into the cliff.That was her most beloved doll. At that time, she was crying so sad that even the master who came to comfort her was helpless.

She thought that from now on, it would be impossible to see that doll again.But unexpectedly, the next day, Uncle Ghost picked up the doll himself and handed it back to her, so she stopped crying.

What made Ah Zi curious was that the cliff was an abyss, how did Uncle Gui climb down the cliff in just one day, retrieve the doll, and then climb back again?

Of course, as she grew older, Ah Zi no longer liked playing with dolls.Therefore, she gradually forgot what happened when she was a child.Now, it was the eldest sister who mentioned it again, and she remembered it again.

……

Qijue Peak, bumpy mountain roads, strange rocks everywhere, extremely sharp.Let alone in the middle of the night, even in broad daylight, people who go up the mountain must be careful.Because if you are not careful, if you step on the air, you will fall into the abyss.If you are lucky, if you roll down the mountain road, you will be scratched and bruised by the sharp and strange rocks on the mountain road.

But at this moment, in the dark night where you can hardly see your fingers, there is an 80-year-old man walking carefully on the steep mountain road with a cane.

The old man was Uncle Gui. He walked down the mountain step by step, very cautiously, as if he was afraid that if he was not careful, he would roll off the cliff.

An 80-year-old man walking on a steep mountain road in the dark is extremely thrilling, and people can't help but gasp when they see it, and their scalps feel numb.However, something even weirder happened.

A shadow like ink suddenly appeared not far behind the old man, and the shadow walked on the mountain path, as if walking on flat ground, at an extremely fast speed.Soon, the old man was caught up by the shadow.

"Are you okay?" Shadow Guard asked in his distinctive deep voice.

"I'm not too old to walk." Uncle Gui was not frightened, but he was a little out of breath when he answered.

Not only was the shadow guard not frightened when he saw the ghost, but he couldn't even turn his head when he answered, so he couldn't help being cautious.

However, no matter how the shadow guard looked at him, he didn't think Uncle Gui was a master, whether it was from his breath or his speech and behavior.Uncle Gui is more in line with the image of an old beggar than some hidden peerless master.

"I can handle this matter by myself, but I have to bring a bad old man with me. Trouble. Is there no one in the Mu family? They sent you, a bad old man." The shadow guard sighed loudly on purpose.At the same time, with a nimble dodge, he overtook Uncle Gui from the narrow mountain path that can only be passed by one person.

He felt that if Uncle Gui was a master, he would definitely react when he was stimulated by his words and provocative actions.But this was not the case, Uncle Ghost was still walking slowly on the mountain path, leaning on a cane.

"With your tortoise-like speed, I'm afraid you won't be able to reach the foot of the mountain tomorrow morning." The shadow guard tried again.

"Young man, do you know that there is a saying that haste makes waste." Ghost Uncle said while panting.

For a shadow guard who has reached the age of forty, he is annoyed that others rely on the old to sell the old.But for Uncle Gui, an old fellow who speaks less than [-] years old, he recognized it.

"Of course I understand the principle of haste makes waste. But it's not suitable for this matter, right? Do you think I don't even know the way down the mountain and the way to Lucheng?" Shadow Guard sneered.

Uncle Gui didn't speak this time.Maybe it was because of the rugged mountain road, he had already struggled to go down the mountain, so he didn't have the strength to speak.

"Since I can't keep up with me, then I'll go ahead." The shadow guard didn't expect Uncle Ghost to continue talking to him, and after leaving a sentence, he used his body skills and quickly sprinted towards the foot of the mountain.

Uncle Ghost stared at the ghostly figure disappearing from his eyes. He couldn't help but shook his head, and took a deep breath: "It's good to be young. My old bones can't stand the trouble anymore."

Ten minutes later, there was one more person beside the road at the foot of the mountain.A plain-looking man in his early 40s, dressed as a worker.

He seemed to be waiting for someone, and while he was waiting for someone, he was smoking a poor-quality roll-your-own cigarette.Cigarette smoke rose up along the dim streetlights, and all the mosquitoes flying around the streetlights were smoked away.

"It seems that the old guy won't be able to come down for a while." As soon as the man spoke, his identity was revealed.It turned out that he was the shadow guard.

A night clothes outfit was only worn when Mao Dawei was secretly protected, and ordinary workman's clothes were his usual attire.Who would have thought that the ordinary workers he could meet on the road would be a master with unique skills.

Oh, of course, when the shadow guard usually dresses up, he also has a rustic name.That was his real name, which was given to him by his grandfather who never walked out of the deep mountains in his life—Gao Fu.

Just one word short, he became tall, rich and handsome.

"I'd better meet the boy who injured Master Yisheng first." Gao Fu threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stomped it out, and walked west along the road.

Although Mao Dawei once told him to take good care of the elderly, he felt that there were priorities.If you miss a major event in order to take care of a slow-moving elderly person, you are putting the cart before the horse.

What's more, Gao Fu knew in his heart that what Mao Dawei said was just a polite remark in front of Mu Hanhai.

"From Yangcheng to Lucheng, with my footsteps, I can arrive this afternoon." Gao Fu said to himself while walking faster.He actually planned to rush from Yangcheng to Lucheng!

It's just that Gao Fu didn't go very far, so he stopped.Looking at the scene in front of him, Gao Fu seemed to have seen the most incredible thing in the world.

The person walking slowly towards Gao Fu from the west turned out to be Uncle Ghost who Gao Fu had always thought should be coming in a short time.He still looked old-fashioned, with a cane in one hand and a hemp rope in the other.

How is this possible?Of course Gao Fu didn't want to admit it!From the halfway up the mountain to the foot of the mountain, it takes at least an hour for ordinary people to get down.In order not to let the members of the Mu family look down on him, relying on his superb body skills and desperately traveling, he was able to reach the foot of the mountain in just ten minutes, and even found time to change his clothes.

However, how did the old man, who seemed to be in his last years, do it?In just ten minutes, from the foot of the steep mountainside, this is something that ordinary martial arts practitioners cannot do.Moreover, it was ahead of him.

The most frightening thing is that Uncle Gui just ran ahead of him, and he didn't even notice it!

Also, what puzzled Gao Fu was that he hadn't seen Uncle Gui's strength clearly until now.Gao Fu himself is a master at the peak of the Xuan rank, and the people who can make him invisible to him, except for the masters of the earth rank, are those who use some special means to hide their strength.Special means refers to secret methods or treasures that can block the energy fluctuations of the body.
