It was just a barrier, and it was already so difficult to deal with it. Then, what about Boss Zhao himself?
He didn't seem to want to see us. I don't know how many things he has left, waiting to entertain us.
No, I can't watch water elementalists get injured.
"Let's go. I'm not going to treat him anymore!" I cried out loud and pulled the water elementalist out of the shop.
However, the water elementalist patted my hand and tried to put on a reassuring smile." We're already here and I've opened the barrier. How can we just leave like that? Be good and follow me."
With that, the water elementalist held my hand and walked towards the Zhao family's shop.
Who knew that when I arrived at the door, the water elementalist was about to raise his hand to knock on the door when he saw the red light from the painting on the door. The intense light made it impossible for me to open my eyes. I could only instinctively reach out to block it. Then, I felt a violent gust of air that mercilessly pushed me away. I could only tightly hold onto the water elementalist's hand and seek support from him.
However, the water elementalist, who had just used up a large amount of true essence, was also somewhat exhausted under this intense attack. His grip on my hand wasn't as strong as before.
After persisting for a while, he and I were both sent flying by the red light and fell to the cold ground.
"Are you alright?" The water elementalist pulled me up and asked worriedly.
"I'm fine." I patted the dirt off my body and answered in a panic," What about you?”
When I saw the same answer in his eyes, my heart finally relaxed.
When she looked at the entrance of the paper shop again, she realized that there were two burly men in armor and holding weapons standing where the two paintings were originally pasted. However, one of them had a pale face and was holding a large saber, while the other had a dark face and was holding a long spear.
If I remember correctly, these two are the door gods Qin Shubao and Yuchi Gong, who were painted by Taizong during the Tang Dynasty.
In history, Qin Shubao had followed Li Shimin to the north and south. He was a brave general who could take the head of an enemy general. And Yuchi Gong is simple and honest, brave and good at fighting. He has been fighting all his life, fighting in the north and south, galloping on the battlefield and making many military achievements. The Xuanwu Gate incident helped Li Shimin seize the throne.
Logically speaking, these two were legendary generals of the Tang Dynasty. Now, they are used as door gods to exorcise ghosts and evil spirits for the people, praying for peace. In my imagination, they should be upright and impartial. But now, why was it a little different from what he had imagined?
Could it be that after experiencing a few dynasties, their original personalities had changed over time?
"I say, Old Qin, you used too much strength. You'll hurt the juniors.”The black-faced door guard teased the serious-looking white-faced man, sizing us up from the corner of his eye.
"Shut up!" " I'm already being merciful when it comes to dealing with ghosts that trespass on people's homes. If it wasn't for the fact that he had a human beside him, I would have already beaten him into ashes.”
Blackface pursed his lips.”
Listening to their conversation, my first reaction was that these two brothers were a little funny and had bad intentions. I grabbed the water elementalist's arm and looked at him warily. From their conversation, I could tell that the black face was Yuchi Gong, and the white face was Qin Shubao.
"Brat, where did you come from?”Yuchi Gong crossed his arms and looked down at us.
Ever since the two door gods appeared, the water elementalist had not made a sound. He maintained a posture of protecting me with one hand behind his back and was ready for battle.
When he heard the other party ask about his family, he replied with a cold expression,"I am Qin Shuixiu, from the Ming Dynasty. I am a water ghost from Qin Shuiwan. This is my wife, Qin Diudiu."
He had to admit that water elementalists had impeccable manners. Even if they were enemies, he would still tell them his family name.
Idiot, if you let them know our background, wouldn't we have even less chance of winning? I pinched his arm with my hand and winked at him desperately.
It was too late. Yuchi Gong laughed loudly when he heard the water elementalist's reply.
"So you're a little brat from the Ming Dynasty. You're many years younger than us. Don't you think so, Old Qin?"
Qin Shubao, who was silent and had a thunderous face, glared at his partner. However, his gaze towards us was the same as the other party's, especially disdainful.
"Ming Dynasty water ghost, why did you bring humans to this paper shop?”
"We want to find Boss Zhao!" Hiding behind the water elementalist, I shouted at the two door gods who were blocking our way.
"Impudent!" Qin Shubao shouted," How can you little brats like you see the owner of this place as you please?!”
"Why not? Your master runs a paper shop during the day and has seen all kinds of people. Why can't we see them??”I argued with him without showing any weakness." We are still customers of your master! Do you know that there's a saying in this world that the customer is God? Can you treat God like this?”
After I finished speaking, I looked at the two door gods with satisfaction. They had shocked and confused expressions, and I was secretly pleased.
Hahahahaha, under my modern wit, tremble, Tang Dynasty antiques! The world used to be yours, but now it's ours!
After a long time, Qin Shubao frowned and said to his partner beside him,""God…what is it?"
" Hahahahahaha…" Yuchi Gong laughed loudly." Little girl, interesting."”
Seeing that Yuchi Gong didn't seem to be so wary of me, I anxiously wanted to step forward."Then, can we go in and see Boss Zhao?”
The two of them glared at each other, and a strong gust of wind blew towards me.
Fortunately, the water elementalist was quick enough to pull me back. I came back to my senses and looked at their expressions. They didn't seem to have any intention of letting us go.
They were indeed old-fashioned. Water elementalists were old-fashioned enough, but they were even more so.
Although they didn't let us in, they didn't hurt us. At least, they didn't have any intention of hurting me.
It seemed that he couldn't rely on water elementalists. Looking at the three of them staring at each other, it was already good enough that they did not fight.
The water elementalist's face was so dark that it was about to drip water.
"But the other party is Boss Zhao's door god after all. If we beat up his door god, it would be a ghost if the owner is willing to help us.
At this time, I can only use my silver tongue to persuade them to let me go.
I started with the betrothal gift that Boss Zhao prepared for the water elementalist, then talked about our encounter at Dragon Gaze Mountain, and finally, about the great kindness that Boss Zhao had shown us when Concubine Xi had saved our lives. Xiao Zhi moved him with emotion and reason, and he was just short of crying.
After saying all this in one breath, I looked at the two door gods blocking my way with anticipation. It was such a touching story that I almost cried myself.
"So? What are you trying to say with these stories?”Unexpectedly, just as I was getting carried away, the pale Qin Shubao asked coldly, almost making me fall to the ground.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:0131201912:42PM
