Tome of Troubled Times Chapter 225: A glimpse

Chapter 225 A Glimpse

A night of silence.

Zhao Changhe was half practicing and half paying attention to his surroundings, and was not in concentration.

I wonder how Miss Winged Fire Snake slept in the cave...

God knows that Suzaku didn’t practice or sleep. All he could think about was how to dig out more of his insights and what price to pay for it. The last thing he thought about was what better way to die for this vest...

I don’t know whether it was because Zhao Changhe’s anti-tracing methods worked all the way, or because Wang Daozhong and the Tingxuelou assassins were beaten back and the second wave of assassinations had not yet fully started. In short, it was a calm night. At dawn that day, Zhao Changhe opened his eyes under the tree. The first thing he saw was the little sister emerging from the cave. The way she bent over was like a gathering of peaks and mountains, and the waves were like angry waves. It was so beautiful.

This figure is really hot.

Zhuque didn't know what he was looking at. When he saw him opening his eyes at the right time, he subconsciously smiled charmingly: "Good morning, good brother~"

After shouting, I almost didn’t slap myself in the ear. At the same time, I realized how stupid that charming smile was. It was impossible to see it under the mask. Who was he smiling at?

Zhao Changhe was delighted and took off Wu Zui's reins: "Let's go, my brother will take you to buy a mask."

Wuzui: "..."

Suzaku sat on the horse naturally: "I always feel that because you didn't visit Jianhu City well before, you deliberately left the shopping there this time."

"Ha... Although this is not the reason, how do you even know this? Does everyone share the internal information of the Four Symbols Sect?"

"No." Suzaku frowned and said, "I just happened to hear about it. I was working nearby at the time."

"It turns out that little snake sister has been destined to me so early..."

"Who is destined to you? Get out!"

Wuzui spread his hooves and galloped away, unable to listen any longer.

Zhao Changhe left Jianhu City on the second day of the Beginning of Summer and headed south to Yangzhou. But now, just after the Beginning of Autumn, he left for exactly a quarter.

And he went from the fourth level of the entrance to the sixth level. This sixth level has just been broken, and he is still far away from the seventh level. This speed can be seen by the naked eye to be twice as slow as the initial stage, and there is no telling how much slower it will be after this...

The city has not changed much, it is still lively and charming. The lakeside in the distance started to have a hint of autumnal golden color from the gloomy green.

Not far from the city, there is still the familiar Wanhua Building, but Tang Wanzhuang is no longer there.

Even Wu Weiyang seems to be by Tang Buqi's side now.

Turn two streets away and you will find the small inn courtyard where Han Wubing once lived together. It was also here on the day of the Beginning of Summer. Zhao Changhe entered the inn with a sense of nostalgia and shouted: "The shopkeeper..."

"Hey, is this your guest?" The shopkeeper actually recognized him: "The courtyard where you lived was empty, do you want that one?"

Zhao Changhe was a little surprised: "You still remember me after so long?"

"Hai, with your terrifying knife, this majestic horse, and this handsome scar, it's hard to forget, right?" The shopkeeper squinted his eyes with a smile: "Are you Qianlong Thirteen Zhao Changhe?"

"No, no, I dress up like him, it's fashionable." Zhao Changhe didn't say much, and said with a smile: "That's it, help feed my horse."

"Okay..." The shopkeeper didn't care whether he was really Zhao Changhe or not. He glanced at the snake-faced woman standing quietly beside him, his heart skipped a beat, and he secretly thought of something evil.

Ordinary people would be a little frightened when they see such an evil snake face. At first glance, he is not a good person...

Zhao Changhe knew what he was thinking, so he pulled Zhuque's hand and ran away, but the pull was empty. Zhuque smiled half-heartedly: "Don't create a sense of urgency here, take the opportunity to hold hands or something, sister. Your hair didn’t even grow when I was walking around the world.”

Zhao Changhe didn’t know whether to laugh or cry: “I didn’t think about it that way.”

"So you just grab a woman's hand casually? How skillful is this?"

"Okay, okay." Zhao Changhe secretly thought that this guy is a real witch. Don't underestimate me because you call me "good brother" sweeter than anyone else. In fact, you are alienated in your heart and will not give you a chance at all.

Zhao Changhe was quite familiar with these two streets because he had visited the weapons shop before. He quickly turned into a small shop and said with a smile: "As expected, I remembered it right. These small sundries are sold here. ”

Suzaku followed in and looked around. There were quite a few masks hanging on the wall.

The masks of her Four Symbol Cult highlight the "divinity", and most of them make people feel fierce or monster. However, the masks here are all played by little girls or children, and each one is cuter and prettier than the last.

Suzaku's eyes fell on a small fox mask, secretly thinking that at least this one looked a little bit more demonic. But I heard Zhao Changhe say: "Store, give me that one...yes, the one on your right, take two!"

Zhuque watched helplessly as the boss handed over two pig heads, and Zhao Changhe took the silly music and turned it over and over, smiling from ear to ear.

Suzaku was speechless: "Are you kidding me? How can you see people with this kind of mask on?"

"Hey, you are looking for a mask that is completely different from yours. It will not remind people of your sect. Of course, the cuter the better."

"That can't be a pig!"

"Why not?" Zhao Changhe said: "Look, even you yourself never thought that you could be a pig..."

Suzaku: "?"

"Oh, I mean, even if you don't think you would choose such a mask, then no one in the world would guess it if they saw it, right?"

Suzaku thought it made sense... and then rejected him: "I won't wear it."

"Where does this stinky arrogance come from?" Zhao Changhe ignored her and put one on himself. He smiled and put it on her face: "A little bit~"

Suzaku finally couldn't hold back his laughter.

This pig is so cute!

Zhao Changhe took the opportunity to put another pig's face into her hand without any explanation: "That's it, what's the big deal? I'm going to Jianhu to sort out the priorities, okay?"

Suzaku may have been scolded more than he had been in the past two days in ten years, and he really didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he still didn't lose the pig face in his hand after all.

I just held it with my hands behind my back, as if I was embarrassed to be seen.

Zhao Changhe looked around and said in a low voice: "Your snake face has always attracted people's attention. It's better to change it sooner rather than later. Just go into the alley and come out to finish it."

Suzaku said: "Are you sure that others are paying attention to me, the snake, or you, the pig?"

"Well, maybe it's me, a pig...that's not right." Zhao Changhe looked back and clenched his fist: "You deserve a beating, don't you?"

"You can't beat me!" Suzaku smiled and dodged, but actually entered the alley behind.

Zhao Changhe took a step forward, blocked the entrance of the alley, and turned his back to the alley.

What a tacit understanding.

Suzaku took a peek at his back, quickly took off his snake face, and put it on the piglet.

This is a soft mask. It is quite comfortable to wear. It is not as scratchy as expected from low-quality products. I feel a little better about being forced to wear a pig face.

Putting the Winged Fire Snake Mask back into his arms and looking up to see that Zhao Changhe was still facing away, Suzaku suddenly remembered that day in Taiyi Sect, when he stood in front of Wang Daozhong, with a slight cold sweat on his back, but Unmoving as a mountain.

Why are you thinking about this? I have beaten you twice in Wangdaozhong.

I'll fight you next time I see you.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Changhe's eyes were full of surprise at this time.

The moment he took off the snake face and put on the piggy face, he saw the true appearance of the winged fire snake lady.

The willow eyebrows on the temples, the eyes like bright stars, the face like powder, and the lips like vermilion are very conventional descriptions, but they are the most standard descriptions of this kind of women by Chinese literati, because this is not at all the recklessness of the Jianghu sect, but the extreme A standard classical beauty... She is clearly a lady of a wealthy family, and some of the sisters who say this is Tang Wanzhuang probably believe her.

Her true identity must be extraordinary.

The glance he took at himself before putting on the mask was a bit playful, but it couldn't match the mature charm and... the stern look that couldn't be concealed. It was completely subconscious. Zhao Changhe was sure that if she found out that you dared to turn around, she would kill you immediately.

At this glance, people knew that she was a member of the demon sect who was really murderous, not Tang Wanzhuang or Yue Hongling.

But... still so beautiful.

It's so beautiful that I hate that the pig's head is covered up too quickly, making people lose a second of sight.

"Hey, let's go, what are you doing standing here like a wooden stake?" A pig's head poked out from beside him.

Zhao Changhe turned to look at her, and the two pigs looked at each other.

The atmosphere was quiet for a moment, and the two of them suddenly laughed at the same time.

Suzaku's mood inexplicably became very good, and he felt that this pig face also had merit.

So Youyouran swayed out of the alley beside him: "Let's go and see Jianhu Lake. It should be very beautiful after the beginning of autumn."
