Chapter 91 Strange Him
As if aware of Gumandong's gaze, the man turned around and his eyes directly faced Gumandong. At that moment, Gumandong seemed to feel something abnormal in his left eye, but the abnormality was very slight and almost easily overlooked.
Looking at the man opposite with his face, only a pair of eyes exposed, Gumandong would never have thought of his identity if it weren't for the strange hair she showed.
Gumandong looked at the man, who looked at her the same way, and then walked towards her step by step.
Gumandong watched the man get closer and closer, and hesitated in his heart whether to turn around and leave, but for some reason, a sound came out of his heart, asking her not to leave in a hurry, as this person would not hurt her.
The voice in her heart surprised Gumandong, but she decided to see what the other party wanted to do. Of course, she didn't rule out that she wanted to know whether her feelings were correct, so she stood there waiting.
When the distance between the two was only two meters away, the man stopped and stood in front of her.
At this moment, Gumandong realized that the man was nearly one head taller than her.
With a slender figure, he is no worse than Mo Jinyan and others. However, the cold air that occasionally emits on his body always gives people a subconscious mind to avoid, and he can't help but stay away from him.
And this kind of aura is not annoying to Gumandong, it's just a habit.
The two were speechless, just looking at each other.
Gumandong was waiting for the other party to speak, but the other party seemed to have no intention of speaking, but just looked at her deeply. The calm eyes made her unable to see the way, but she had no intention of leaving, making her unable to guess what he was thinking.
"Send you." A reflective object that suddenly threw was caused by Gu Mandong to subconsciously reach out to take it. The slightly cool touch in his palm spread out and saw that it turned out to be a bracelet.
The rope of this bracelet is very special, pure white, non-gold or silver, with three small bells about the size of peanuts hanging on it, and gently shake it. <>The ringtone is particularly pleasant, but not small, the spreading distance of the sound is unexpectedly far. As for how far it is, Gumandong is unknown.
When Gumandong's eyes were withdrawn from the bell in his hand, the man disappeared, as if he had never appeared before. He disappeared without a trace.
Looking at the bracelet in his hand, Gumandong was a little hesitant, not knowing whether he should take it or not.
But the man has left, and I think there seems to be nowhere to pay it back.
"Forget it, it's not too late to meet him next time, so I'll just take it for him to keep it for several days." Gumandong put the bell in his hand into the sachet and left the deck and returned to the cabin, but he didn't notice that after she turned around and left, a silver-white hair fluttered in the evening breeze. The man stood around the corner and watched her leave.
"Master." The figure of a black slave appeared behind the man, standing respectfully behind him, and shouting respectfully.
"Black slave, if she makes a mistake in one day, you will be self-destructive regardless of whether you do it or not, so I won't do it myself."
"I understand." The black slave responded, and he was also deeply helpless.
Although he had a criminal record, it was normal for him to be punished by his master. Now he is able to live well, which is a bargain he has obtained, so he dare not say much.
As for why his master valued a little psychic girl so much and saved her life several times, this is not something he, a little slave, should know.
Since meeting the master of the black slave in the underground palace that day, Gumandong would encounter this person every few days while walking on the deck alone.
This person didn't say much when he met her, but just looked at her for a moment. Whenever she spoke to return the bell, he would always throw something to her before she spoke.
Some of these things are women's accessories, some are food, and even seeds, or they suddenly give her a flower.
It can be said that the things given each time are different, and before she was about to return the things she had before, he gave them the things first, and then she would lose her mind for a moment. When she came back to her senses, the man mysteriously disappeared again.<>
Gumandong felt that he was trapped in a cycle of gods, passively accepting what the man sent, and had no chance to do what he wanted to do, even if he couldn't do it once.
After a few times, Gumandong realized that this man's unfathomable depth was far superior to Gumandong, whether it was his martial power or other abilities. Especially the ability that made her lose her mind for a moment without realizing it. Now thinking about it, if that person really wanted to hurt her, Gumandong had no doubts. As long as he took action, he might have moved his head for a long time when Gumandong came back to his senses.
Gumandong did not mention this matter to Jiang Hang and others, and Jiang Hang always stayed behind her to protect her, but he seemed to have lost his memory and could not remember that person had appeared at all. Even if Gumandong had tried it, it was still fruitless.
It is precisely because of this that Gumandong would not return anything to him later. As long as he had something to give it to her, he would take it away.
Facing an enemy that is so powerful that it is hopeless, sometimes pretending to be ignorant is the only way to protect everyone.
The journey of the large passenger ship from Fengyungang to Jiaolong City ended after arriving in half a month.
After getting off the boat smoothly, he stood down to earth on the stone slab at Jiaolong City Wharf. Gumandong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
But his eyes were involuntarily looking for traces of the figure in the crowd.
It’s a pity that no matter how she looked around, she still couldn’t see the man. I guess he had already left, but she just didn’t know.
"Man Dong, why do you look a little unhappy? Do you have any worries? If you don't mind, tell your sister, and maybe you can help you." Li Xiang was the first person to realize that Guman Dong was abnormal. However, she followed Guman Dong and did not go into it. She just waited for her to speak, and would naturally say it to her.
But from the boat to the time she got off the boat, she still said nothing, and Li Xiang could only ask in a tactful way.<>
"Mandong, do you have something to worry about? Are you feeling uncomfortable? Do you need to find a doctor?" Mo Jinyan ran over immediately and asked Gu Mandong like a cannon, without looking at his pale face and frivolous steps. He didn't think that among them, he was the one who should look at the doctor more.
"I'm fine. I just seemed to see the back of a familiar person, but I found that I was wrong. I was just disappointed. It's okay. Let's leave here first. I spent half a month on the boat, and now I can stand down to the ground, and I feel much more at ease. But I'll still feel a little tired. It's better to find an inn to settle down first. It's just slow down. What do you think?" Gumandong asked with a smile, changing the topic.
Li Xiang looked at Gu Mandong half-believingly, but did not expose her excuse, but just responded with a smile: "Since I have arrived at Jiaolong City, I am not busy looking for an inn. Ye Lin's father had an old friend in the city. It must be empty now, so only a few servants left to take care of it. We can go there to stay in the inn. After all, there are many people in the inn, so it's better to rest on your own territory. Are you right?" Wuzhuo Novel Network does not skip words.
"Since Sister Xiang has a good place to go, we naturally follow Sister Xiang's arrangements, so we have no objection." Gumandong replied with a smile, and naturally the others would not have much objection. He directly asked where the nearest car dealer was located, hired a car to go to his residence, and also asked the people in the car dealer to prepare the horses and carriages that need to be redeemed first, and come and pick them up tomorrow.
Because I bought a lot of scattered things when I was in Haikou City, I have just gotten off the boat and it is inconvenient to find a car, so I can only let Gu Yi and others leave with their things on their backs. In this way, it is difficult to carry large and small bags of things on their bodies, not attracting attention.
Fortunately, the car dealer is not too far away, so this thing can be handed over to the car dealer for the time being to be replaced. We just wait for the carriage to come tomorrow morning, and after the carriage is exchanged, the remaining funds will be settled.
It doesn’t take too much trouble to leave the car dealer. The car dealer already has carriages carrying passengers to various parts of the city, and the price is quite cheap. It doesn’t cost much money to rent a few cars directly to go there.
Soon everyone arrived at the place.
It was an old and old house that looked a bit old, and it should be at least a century-old house. A simple atmosphere came to my face. It was the unique charm of time and was not comparable to a newly built house.
Li Xiang slapped the door. The one who opened the door was an old man, about in his early fifties, half-white hair and half-hunched body. His eyes were unexpectedly bright, and his steps were calm and almost silent. Although this man couldn't help but look weak, even Gumandong could see the other person's unusualness, let alone Taguranto's eyes that burst out instantly.
That was simply a thrilling attempt when playing against the opponent. If it weren't for the wrong occasion, he wouldn't mind fighting one more time.
"Uncle Tu, your body is still so strong, I feel relieved." Li Xiang raised her lips and smiled with a smile on her face.
"Hey, Miss, Young Master, why are you free to come here? Didn't you say there are still two years?" Wucuo Novel Network does not skip words.
The person who is called Uncle Tu is an elder who Li Xiang took care of her since childhood. Although she is not from the Li family, nor is she a psychic, she is considered an elder who takes care of her.
This person is a martial arts master. Because he was tired of the disputes in the world, he lived in the Li family after retirement. He was considered a special guest of the Li family. By chance, he met the young Li Xiang and took care of her until she grew up and got married. Now, he came here just because of Li Xiang's request. He waited for two years to go back to the family with Li Xiang and his son for testing.
Now that Li Xiang and his son are so unexpectedly appearing here, Tu Qiang is also very surprised.
"Uncle Tu, I said, just call me Xiang'er. Why do you call Miss again? You are not a servant of the Li family, but an elder who has grown up. Why does calling me a name makes you so embarrassed?" Li Xiang stomped her feet and spoke angrily. Her little daughter's posture appeared. How could she have the steadiness that a mother should have, let alone that she and Xiaoxiangtang would completely change at this moment.
What about the cheerfulness before? What about the steadyness before? What about the intelligence before?
It only felt that in a moment, she fell from the wise woman to the vase woman. The gap was a bit big, which made people unable to help but surprise.
"Okay, okay, Xiang'er, Xiang'er, don't I want you to be more respectful in front of the people? This has become mine."
"Hehe, this is almost the same. Lin'er, I'll pay you Grandpa Tu's greetings."
Ye Lin came over and bowed respectfully, making the little adult look, but he also learned it well.
"Be good Lin'er, Grandpa Tu has nothing to give you. This piece of jade is useful for escorting you. Don't be too lazy to be small." Tu Qiang smiled and took out a snow-white bead from his arms. A red rope strung on it, which looked very inconspicuous, but in the eyes of the psychic, the small bead was not ordinary at all.
Although it is a bead, in fact, only the psychic master knows that the bead is not a bead, but a substance that is condensed into a substantial object by the rune. The red rope is not an ordinary thing, but a tendon of a psychic object. It contains spiritual energy itself, otherwise how could you afford such a bead?
It can be said that with this bead to protect the body, evil things will never dare to approach them. They can be regarded as a very powerful amulet, especially for Ye Lin who is as big as the size of a psychic but does not know how to protect his children.
"Uncle Tu, this thing is too precious, Lin'er can't accept it." Li Xiang hurriedly refused, but Tu Qiang slapped his hands and put them on Ye Lin's neck directly.
"What's the value? I have no children and no daughters. Lin'er called me grandpa, it's my grandson. What's the point of giving a gift to my grandson? Why don't you say there is precious or not? In my eyes, only by giving it to the right person can it be called its value."
Li Xiang couldn't help but push Ye Lin's body, "Lin'er, don't you thank Grandpa Tu for your gift."
"Thank you, Grandpa Tu."
"Remember, when you grow up in the future, no matter how capable you are, Grandpa Tu is your elder, one of your grandfathers."
"Yes, mom." Ye Lin responded seriously, but Tu Qiang saw it, but was extremely relieved.
"Look at me, I am so confused, just visiting the old days, but I forgot that you still have guests. Please come in first. I immediately ordered someone to prepare a room for food and drinks. Xiang'er, you are not unfamiliar with this house. Take the guests to the flower hall for a while."
"Yes, Uncle Tu." Li Xiang said, turning around, "Everyone comes with me. Let's go to the flower hall for a while. Uncle Tu will be able to arrange your residence soon."
"It's a laborious task." Mo Jinyan bowed his hand, and there was no need to say much about thanks. Since everyone has arrived here, it seems a bit hypocritical if he is polite.
After entering the gate, Gumandong and others discovered that the scenery of the house was quite good. They had been designed and built by a master craftsman himself. The scenery in each place was different, and it was a step by step, making people feel novel at all times.
It is nothing to have a large enough mansion to accommodate dozens of people, but along the way, Gumandong and others also found that there were not many figures in this huge house.
But even so, the surrounding environment will not be destroyed by the original beauty just because there are few people. Instead, it seems to be carefully taken care of and always showing the best side of oneself, which makes people sigh at the master's power. (To be continued.)
