Nightcrawler: 20 Years of Peaceful Demons

Chapter 141
The man who the hunchback called "Hua San Shao" was about 30 or [-] years old.

He didn't wear regular clothes, but a white gown, and his hair was well-groomed, like the young master Pian Pianjia in the TV dramas during the Republic of China.

The hunchback was originally fierce and vicious, but now when he saw the Third Young Master Hua, he was very respectful and polite.

When Hua Sanshao saw him, he cupped his hands and said softly, "Senior Feng, who are you?"

The hunchback Feng Jingyao grinned, showing a mouthful of big yellow teeth, and said with a smile: "This girl, she sneaked into the mountain for nothing. She hid in the dark just now and wanted to sneak attack me. If I wasn't alert enough, I would have It's a bit of a skill, maybe your grandma's birthday party will be stained with blood."

Hua Sanshao was a little puzzled, asking why?

The hunchback grinned, saying that there are so many trivial matters, so I won’t go into details—Hua Sanshao, let me work, I’ll deal with this chick, don’t dirty your place, wait until you turn around The banquet is over, I'm going to toast you.

Hua Sanshao shook his head, and said to him: "Senior Feng, I happen to know this girl, and today is my grandma's birthday, it's not appropriate to see blood, so why don't you let her go this time to save me. As for the future I don't care about your grievances, how?"

Tuozi was taken aback when he heard it, then laughed, and said yes, yes, very good, since Third Young Master Hua said so, I have to give you face no matter what, Tuozi.

After all, he pointed to Ju Jing on the edge of the cliff and said, "It's your luck to meet a good person like San Shao. If not, you will really be unable to close your legs and get out of bed today. However, Don't always think about seeking revenge on me in the future, otherwise, hehehe..."

He laughed, bowed his hands to Hua Sanshao, and then walked away.

After Feng Jingyao left, Third Young Master Hua stepped forward, helped Ju Jing up on the ground, and said softly, "Miss Ju, do you still remember me?"

The situation turned around, and Ju Jing, who had already fallen into despair and was about to jump off the cliff to commit suicide, just came back to her senses at this moment. After being helped by Hua Sanshao, she seemed to be reborn after a lifetime.

She said apologetically to the man: "Last time I misunderstood you and thought you were a prodigal disciple. I offended you so much, please forgive me, Third Young Master."

Third Young Master Hua laughed, and said sincerely: "That guy is reckless, yelling nonsense, what three young and four young, like a dude. My surname is Hua, and my first name is sure enough. How old are you? You call me Sure enough, bro."

Sure enough bro?
This title made me feel a little queasy. I don't know why, although the three young masters of Hua behaved gracefully, it always made me feel a little fake.

Ju Jing seemed to feel something too, but she still didn't dare to disobey her savior, she lowered her head and called out softly: "Brother sure enough."

"Hey!"

Hua really listened, and smiled, and Senior Brother Xin who was beside him got up, cupped his hands and said, "Brother Hua, we have met Xin Zhui at Xiajinguan Ziranmen before."

Hua really deserved to be a member of everyone's family, and she was impeccable in her actions. While returning the gift, she said: "Brother Xin, I haven't seen you for a long time."

That Ju Jing was bent on taking revenge, and seeing that Third Young Master Hua had a reputation, she said excitedly, "Brother sure enough, that Feng Jingyao was the murderer of my father, can you help me uphold justice and arrest him?" ?”

She was full of expectations, but Huaguo was a little embarrassed, explaining: "This...he is a guest invited by my grandma, so it's a bit inappropriate to make him up rashly."

After he finished speaking, he probably felt Ju Jing's disappointment, and hurriedly said: "But don't worry, it's fair and easy, and there will always be a conclusion to this matter. I will help you to uphold justice.”

He drew a big pie of nothingness, and Ju Jing was really excited when she heard it, she couldn't help but grabbed Hua Guoguo's arm, and said excitedly, "Really?"

Hua Guoruo proudly said: "What I said, every spittle and every nail, really can't be more true."

Ju Jing was a little excited and said thank you.

Hua really grabbed Ju Jing's little hand naturally, and said softly, "Today is my grandma's birthday, and there are many people here. Come with me and sit in my yard, so as not to cause any trouble." thing."

Senior Brother Xin smiled ingratiatingly, saying yes, yes, we will all be arranged by Brother Hua.

The three of them left the edge of the cliff, and I was watching from the corner, always feeling that something was wrong, when someone behind me said: "When did you come?"

I turned around and saw Ma Yi'ao was behind me, and hurriedly asked, "Where did you go just now?"

Ma Yi'ao pointed to the top of the house and said that he was lying there just now.

I said you also saw what happened just now?

Ma Yi'ao nodded and said that as soon as I came over, I recognized Senior Brother Na Xin and Junior Sister Ju Jing. I didn't expect that hunchback was the Feng Jingyao they were looking for, so I lay down on it and looked at it for a while.

I said that the situation was so critical just now, I thought you were here and would help.

Ma Yi'ao curled his lips, saying what should I do?Anyway, it's all about acting, that little girl, no matter what, will not be in danger.

what?
I don't quite understand, what about acting?
Ma Yi'ao said: "The young man named Zhao Kang is right. Senior brother Xin Zhui Xin is really not a good person. He probably colluded with Hua Guoran and Feng Jingyao long ago, and played a play for that idiot. Look at the girl."

I'm not a fool, when Ma Yi'ao mentioned this, all my doubts were strung together into a thread.

It turned out to be the case.

I said that it was so difficult for us to get up the mountain, but it was so easy for this pair of brothers and sisters. It turned out that someone had made arrangements and arrangements in front.

Not only that, but Feng Jingyao's anti-sneak attack awareness, his concession to Hua Guo, Hua Guo's sudden appearance, and his statement just now, everything is just a show, and this matter makes sense instead.

What did I say?

Ma Yi'ao shook his head, and said, who knows, Feng Jingyao was either cooperating in the acting to let Hua Guo embrace the beauty, or Hua Guo fell in love with Hua Guo's young junior sister, and planned strategies behind the scenes.

what?
Hearing Ma Yi'ao's analysis, I couldn't help being covered in cold sweat.

If it is the latter, then this seemingly personable, harmless Huaguo is really too scheming, too ruthless and decisive, right?

Seeing that I didn't believe it, Ma Yi'ao shook his head and sighed: "People's hearts, people's hearts, this is the most vicious thing."

The two looked at each other, both feeling a little emotional.

Then he asked me about the situation there, and I answered truthfully. He breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "I just took a look, and I didn't see Huang Daxian, nor did I see anyone from Farewell Island. Who are the people over there?" Did you come, or did you not come, or where did you rest?"

I said I need to look for this. I just asked someone, and they said that the banquet opens at [-] o'clock. Before that, you can move around freely. You can walk around and have a look.

Ma Yi'ao nodded and said yes, let's look for it separately, lest the target is too big.

I said yes, I'll go up the mountain, you go down the mountain.

Ma Yi'ao was right, if something happens in a while, don't take it hard, deal with it if you can, and run if you can't, don't panic.

After he explained everything, the two checked their watches and agreed to meet at the edge of the venue at [-]:[-] pm.

After I separated from Ma Yi'ao, I walked towards a road up the mountain.

Along the road paved with bluestone slabs, I walked up slowly. The Pingzi here is only halfway up the mountain. There are still many ways to go up. They're all small, and there's even a single room in one place.

There are people gathering in these places, but I didn’t find Huang Daxian—Ma Yi’ao described to me that Huang Daxian is an old man with long gray hair and wearing a blue homemade cloth all the year round—I also saw There is a cave, at the end of a small road, on the side of the mountain wall, many words are engraved.

I was a little curious, so I went to have a look, and found that it was actually a large piece of Buddhist scriptures. I read the content carefully, and it seemed to be the "Prajna Paramita Heart Sutra".

When I was seriously looking at the Buddhist scriptures, a person next to me asked, "Young man, do you still understand this?"

I was startled, and turned around quickly, and saw a rather rich old man looking at me beside me.

He was fat and white, wearing a white Tang suit worn by an old man practicing Tai Chi in the park, looking at me with a smile.

I was frightened by his elusive posture, first I looked around, and found that he was the only one, so I said, "Where did you come from?"

The old man pointed to the big rock next to him and said that I was here just now, didn't you notice?
I shook my head, saying I hadn't noticed.

The old man pointed to the Buddhist scriptures on the stone wall and said, do you understand this?
I don't know why he asked this, but he said, "This...'Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, practice the deep Prajna Paramita for a long time, see that the five aggregates are empty, and overcome all hardships', it should be the "Prajna Paramita Heart Sutra", right? It is the subjugation chapter of the "Diamond Sutra", referred to as the "Heart Sutra". The whole scripture has only one volume, 260 characters, and it promotes emptiness and prajna. Bar."

I have been reading Buddhist scriptures since I was a child. Because my mother believes in Buddhism, there are quite a few Buddhist scriptures at home, both genuinely printed and hand-copied.

And these are childhood memories, a little fuzzy.

Hearing my words, the old man couldn't help but smile more on his face, nodded and said: "Yeah, I really understand, young people nowadays talk a lot, but there are very few people with real skills. You Among the young people I have met in the past few years, one of the few people who is neither arrogant nor impetuous, and has something to say, yes, yes."

I was overwhelmed by the praise, and said modestly: "You are too much, I am also a Buddhist mother, and I recited some when I was young, and I swallowed it whole, without asking for a deep understanding."

The old man nodded, and said it was good, it is really good to be able to know the young man so clearly, very good...

He boasted, and suddenly asked: "By the way, what kind of night crawler are you?"
