The three of them felt a little guilty about disappearing without saying a word. They had thought that it would be strange for him to not be able to find them for a few days at most. What's more, they were not very familiar with each other to begin with. They just didn't expect Zuo Shuming to be so persistent. Not only did he search the entire Gui Yi Sect, he even seemed to be expanding outwards. And the more he searched, the more anxious he became. It seemed like he would not stop until he found them.
Lonemoon felt that in order not to affect his cultivation and to complete his grand goal of fighting the invasion, he had to find a chance to bluff … no, to explain to him. So early the next morning, he stopped a certain someone who was about to go out.
"Two Bucks … Fellow Daoist Zuo!"
Zuo Shuming faltered for a moment before turning back. "This … Junior Brother, how are you doing? Why are you stopping me?"
"I just entered the sect and live next door to you. That's why I came to say hello. " Lonemoon pointed to the room next door and glanced at the stack of portraits in his hands. "Brother Zuo, are you planning to go out?"
"That's right!" He nodded and said with a serious expression, "I plan to go down the mountain to the nearby immortal city to put up some notices."
"Notices?" Lonemoon faltered for a moment. He took a closer look and realized that there was an additional line of words above the portraits. It was boldly added: Missing Person Notice! Four eye-catching words.
The three of them: "…"
He really wouldn't give up until he found them. It couldn't be helped that he was too honest!
Lonemoon's mouth twitched and he immediately looked away. "I saw that you've been looking for these three people for a few days. Could they be your relatives?"
"That's not it!" He smiled. "They're my friends. Speaking of which, I've only known them for less than three days. We agreed to join Gui Yi Sect together, but I don't know why. The day we came to the sect, they suddenly disappeared. "
"Oh, so that's how it is. I think they might have other important matters to attend to." Lonemoon advised in a low voice. "What's more, you guys just met by chance. Why do you have to waste so much effort, Brother Zuo? It wasn't easy for you to enter Gui Yi Sect. You should work hard on your cultivation. "
"This Junior Brother doesn't know the inside story. Please don't spout nonsense." He was suddenly enraged. He turned to glare at him and said disapprovingly, "They are the friends that I, Zuo, recognize. Now that they have suddenly disappeared, how can I not investigate? It would be fine if they were safe, but what if they encountered danger and were isolated and helpless? If I sit back and do nothing, how can I be worthy of being called a friend? "
His face was filled with anger, as if the other party had just said something to humiliate him. He said word by word, "I, Zuo Shuming, am not that kind of despicable person. What's more, they saved my life."
"…"
What life-saving grace?
Was he talking about that day in the forest when he conveniently dragged him back? They really didn't go there to save him.
"And …" He thought of something, and his expression became even more anxious. "Their sudden disappearance might have something to do with saving me that day."
Could it be that he thought that their disappearance was due to the revenge of the person who stole the treasure that day? Brother, catch! You really have a big imagination.
"He said that my Brother Zuo …"
"This Fellow Daoist." He was obviously angry. He didn't even address Lonemoon as Junior Brother. He directly said, "I still have important matters to attend to. I won't accompany you any longer." With that said, he looked at Lonemoon meaningfully. He snorted and turned to leave in a huff.
"…" Was he being looked down upon by him? He definitely was.
(⊙v⊙)
Seeing that he was about to walk away with the pile of notices, Lonemoon sighed and said loudly, "Fellow Daoist Zuo, please wait. You haven't returned the two spirit stones you lent me the other time."
"I lent you spirit stones?" Zuo Shuming stopped in his tracks and subconsciously took out his bag of spirit stones. After a long while, he poured out three spirit stones and handed them over. "I'm sorry. I used all my spirit stones yesterday to ask someone to help me find them. I only have three left. When I have more …"
He suddenly stopped mid-sentence and looked up at the person in front of him. His eyes slowly widened as if he had just understood. The huge pile of notices in his hands fell to the ground. "You … You … You are …"
"Mm." Lonemoon nodded. "It's just what you think!" Fortunately, he wasn't too stupid. He finally reacted.
Zuo Shuming was completely stunned. He looked at the person in front of him in disbelief. He then said tentatively, "Don't tell me you really …"
"Yes!"
"You are … Miss Shen?"
Lonemoon: "…"
Shen my ass!
Pfft …
Two soft snickers sounded. Lonemoon turned to the side and glared at a certain two people whose shoulders were shaking crazily. "You two little bastards, shut up. Don't laugh!"
He directly shouted at them through voice transmission. Then, he slapped the other party's shoulder with a frown. Cold air rushed out of his body. He gritted his teeth and said, "How do you think I look like Shen … Ying?" Are you f * cking blind? Try calling her Miss again? You can't tell if she's a man or a woman.
"Fellow … Fellow Daoist Lonemoon?" Zuo Shuming trembled and immediately changed his words.
Hmph! At least you know what's good for you!
Lonemoon snorted and let go of his hand. He took the three spirit stones from Zuo Shuming's hand and said, "Remember, you still owe me one."
"Huh? Oh. " Zuo Shuming was obviously still in shock. He nodded blankly and scanned the complete stranger in front of him. "Brother Lonemoon, why did you suddenly become like this?"
"It's a long story …" Lonemoon opened his mouth to make up a story.
"Wait!" Zuo Shuming suddenly thought of something. He looked around and saw that there was no one around. He then stepped aside and said, "Brother Lonemoon, let's go inside and talk." With that, he walked quickly into the house and closed the door and windows before continuing, "Brother Lonemoon, why did you guys suddenly disappear that day?"
Lonemoon's eyes darted around and he started to make up stories. "Actually, we didn't really want to join Gui Yi Sect. After we boarded the ship that day, we regretted it. That's why we left. "
"I see!" Dumb Zuo Shuming believed him without hesitation. He nodded and said, "I knew it. Based on your cultivation, joining Tai Yan Sect was the best choice. It's normal for you to hesitate. Oh yes, where are Miss Shen and Fellow Daoists Yi Qing? Why are you back now? And why did your face suddenly change? "
"If I said … I accidentally fell down on the spirit boat that day. Would you believe me?" Lonemoon asked casually.
"So you fell down!" Zuo Shuming suddenly understood. "I was wondering why your cultivation level had regressed. So it's because you were injured. Is it serious? Have you recovered? Will it affect your foundation? "
Lonemoon: "…"
Yi Qing: "…"
Shen Ying: "…"
He just said it casually. You really believed him? You must be a palace level dumb Bai Tian!
"Then Miss Shen and Fellow Daoists Yi Qing aren't here. Is it because they've already joined Tai Yan Sect?" Zuo Shuming automatically filled in the missing (invisible) two people. He even found an excuse for Lonemoon to return to Gui Yi Sect and not be chosen by Tai Yan Sect.
Lonemoon scanned him from head to toe. A moment later, he patted his shoulder with a gratified expression.
"I said, Two Bucks …"
"Ah! Huh? "Was Two Bucks referring to him?
"You're the most worry-free dumb Bai Tian I've ever met." He didn't even need to think about making up a story. Zuo Shuming did it himself. Mm, this is a sensible friend. Forget it. I don't want the remaining spirit stone.
