Peking Opera Cat Heart Feather

Chapter 133: The Liar



Chapter 133: The Liar

The atmosphere in the inn was a little tense.

"I was wondering why Xinyu didn't take action this time. It turns out that she has been secretly maintaining the illusion array!" Dafei widened his eyes and looked at the sudden wonderful changes in the surrounding environment in surprise. Only then did he suddenly realize the truth that he had not noticed before - Bai Xinyu has been silently performing her tricks.

Sha Wuhen, who had just woken up nearby, was equally shocked. He gazed at the dreamlike scene around him, his heart filled with gratitude towards Bai Xinyu: "Thank you so much, my friend. I'm truly grateful! I just don't know when exactly did you set up this illusion array? And the map those two sisters are holding, could it really be the fake one?"

After a short period of meditation, Bai Xinyu's depleted rhythmic energy had almost fully recovered. She slowly opened her eyes, exhaled gently, and replied with a smile, "Senior Sha, you're welcome. Actually, I had already begun setting up this illusion array long before we noticed something was amiss with the sisters. As for the map... That's right, my original intention was to create a fake one and then destroy it within the illusion. But then Shopkeeper Pan reported a fake location, saving me the trouble of creating a map again."

Furthermore, if we hadn't allowed them to take the fake map and leave, given their shrewdness, they would have immediately doubted its authenticity. So I didn't stop Bai Tang and Wu Song from chasing them. This would have created a false impression and bought us some time to deal with any potential trouble.

Just as everyone was talking, Wu Song dragged Bai Tang, whose body was still a little stiff, back to the inn. Looking at the intact inn and the few people who were still chatting, he suddenly became angry and said, "Hey, hey, hey, are you kidding me?" After saying that, he pushed Bai Tang, who had recovered his movement, away.

"Okay, let's go into the real secret passage quickly. After we get the things, it will depend on how our clan leader performs." After seeing everyone come back, Bai Xinyu smiled slightly towards Bianri's room.

"Chaos will eventually roll in,

Rosary Messenger, Crossing the Sea Road,

Exploring the source of wonders in the abyss,

Bukong entered the palace and swept away the yellow sand.

Revitalize Bu Zong"

After seeing everyone coming up, Sha Wuhen also kept the secret and told it out.

"I believe you are going to rescue Bu Zong again and must uncover the secret. The reason I didn't tell you before was because I don't trust any Peking Opera cats. Now I entrust this secret to you, and the two of us will fake our deaths in front of everyone so that we can live a peaceful life. The real secret passage is under the bed in your room, and the treasure map is also in the stone trough of the secret passage. Go ahead."

Sha Wuhen, after you finish speaking, stand back in front of Shopkeeper Pan and look at everyone together.

After listening to it, I said goodbye to Manager Pan and Sha Wuhen, walked towards the room, and sure enough, I found the secret passage under the bed.

"Girl, I'm sorry for putting you through this." Sha Wuhen stood there, quietly watching the figures of those people disappear at the end of the secret passage. He then slowly turned his head and whispered to Shopkeeper Pan who had been silently accompanying him.

At this moment, Shopkeeper Pan was staring at Sha Wuhen. Her eyes were deep and complex, as if they contained a thousand words. Hearing Sha Wuhen's words, she was slightly startled, and then a faint bitter smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "You still know..."

Memories flooded back like a tide, and every moment he'd shared with Sha Wuhen resurfaced vividly. He recalled the days they'd trekked through the vast desert, each step filled with hardship; and the time he'd resolutely betrayed the Bu Zong clan for him, embarking on an unknown path. Then, as fate would have it, they'd unexpectedly stumbled upon the ancient, seemingly dilapidated Dragon Gate Inn, and worked together to transform it into their own secret base.

"Later, when Chaos invaded Bu Sect, you insisted on leaving. Do you remember what I said to you at that time?" Shopkeeper Pan stared at Sha Wuhen intently, with a barely perceptible smugness glimmering in his eyes.

Sha Wuhen was silent for a moment, as if trying to recall the past. Then he took a deep breath and answered solemnly, "You said that no matter what kind of danger and loneliness awaited me ahead, I would definitely wait for you to come back."

As soon as she finished speaking, Shopkeeper Pan couldn't help but laugh, but her laughter was punctuated by a slight sob. She raised her head and said with a hint of resentment, "But you also said that if I were ever in danger, you would never come to my rescue!" However, by the time she finished speaking, her eyes were already welling with tears. But these tears were not from sadness, but from the unwavering joy deep in her heart - because he had broken his original oath and returned to her side at the critical moment to save her.

At that time, no matter how much I cried and cursed, you must not come to save me! Sha Wuhen also added the last sentence, but this time he was not as ruthless as he thought, but with some affection.

After a moment of silence, the two slowly spoke:

"A promise worth a thousand gold."

“It’s a deal!

"The fabled oasis you've been searching for isn't just some ethereal fantasy, it truly exists in this world. When I complete my mission, you'll return here." They both uttered these words simultaneously, their voices as unison as if they were a single voice. With the final word, their hands reached out to each other, finally clasping tightly.

"fraud"

After the two of them finished speaking at the same time, the entire Longmen Inn suddenly disappeared in the yellow sand. From the outside, there was nothing visible, and there was no sign of its existence.
