Night.

Laughter could be heard from the small courtyard behind the carpenter's shop.

Inside the house, the old man and the child laughed and played, and the floor was full of small toys made by the old man.

"That's right...... That's right...... I almost forgot the most important thing in this memory. The old man remembered something, stopped what he was doing, and muttered to himself.

Kuan'er, you first have to restrain the smell on your body. ”

Yan Lao explained earnestly.

Speaking of which, Yan Kuan, the kid, was very clingy to him, and he didn't want to be separated from him for a moment, no, let him stay in the house obediently and don't go out, and it turned out to be good......

sneaked from the house to the front shop, and was noticed by Li Xian, which scared him enough.

reacted...... The old man felt that this kind of strange fragrance of plants and trees was really unacceptable, and he had to find a way to solve it, in case it was discovered by someone with a heart, it would be over, Yan Kuan's identity was too dangerous.

Yan Lao didn't know if his 'son' was a demon or not, and he had never heard anyone say that wood could become a spirit!

Yan Kuan blinked his turquoise eyes, he didn't quite understand what his father meant.

"Daddy......"

Ouch, this made Yan Lao anxious, scratching his ears and cheeks and walking around, and even the wine gourd in his hand was not fragrant.

I don't know how long I walked around in place,

Syllable!

The old man's eyes lit up, and his hand slapped his thigh hard, but it turned out to be too hard, and he grinned in pain.

Seeing that his father looked very painful, Yan Kuan's eyes showed distress, and he stepped forward with his hands and feet, and stretched out his hand to touch Yan Lao's legs.

Unexpectedly, as soon as it approached, Yan Lao hurriedly retreated, kept fanning his hand near the wings of his nose, and said several words: "It stinks...... It stinks. ”

Yan Kuan was stunned, with its newborn little head, where could he understand the meaning of Yan Lao's move, and after several times trying to get closer, Yan Lao retreated, and finally understood what his father was disgusting.

'I stink?'

The concept of stinky appeared in his mind for the first time, and he had a specific impression, but he didn't know how to solve the problem of stink, and all of a sudden tears fell out of his eyes.

Yan Lao breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and it was good to understand it, although he was very distressed when his son shed tears, fortunately, it was not the first time he had been a father, and he should be ruthless at this time.

At this time, Yan Lao pointed to a pale green gas that was slightly emitted from Yan Kuan's body, and if he didn't observe it carefully, it was easy to ignore the past.

Even if Yan Kuan no longer understands the world, his essence is the tree spirit created by heaven and earth, and you must know that even if other tree spirits are initially born consciousness, it will take thousands of years and tens of thousands of years before they have the opportunity to truly contain spiritual wisdom.

'It's these gases that make me stink!'

Seeing the smell that Daddy was referring to, Yan Kuan suddenly understood.

The fragrance of plants and trees that overflowed from his body was its own thing, Yan Kuan closed his eyes and began to ponder.

Only when you can think and learn to think can you be considered a 'person' in the true sense.

Yan Kuan's initial state can only be said to have consciousness, the simplest and most instinctive consciousness of living beings, seeking good fortune and avoiding evil.

Elder Yan wasn't in a hurry, just waited there.

About a cup of tea later,

The fragrance of plants and trees emanating from Yan Kuan's body anytime and anywhere was collected into the aura little by little.

This obvious change was immediately seen by Yan Lao.

Although this fragrance is good for his body, it is getting better and better day by day, and his spirit is getting better and better...... Even a small potted plant in the window is like a second spring, growing and leafy, so you can imagine the danger here.

A kind smile suddenly appeared on Yan Lao's face, and he stepped forward and hurriedly hugged his son.

Seeing that his father no longer disliked himself, Yan Kuan also showed a big smile on his face and laughed happily.

My good son. ”

Yan Lao touched Yan Kuan's slippery little brain.

But what I thought was ...... Do you want to leave Yuanye County, the old man has lived a lifetime, and he can't see through anything, but now that he is martial arts, the city gate is more strictly guarded, and it is not so easy to go out now, so he has to wait for the limelight.

As for whether to leave Yuanye County, in fact, the old man already had an idea in his heart.

"Come on...... We ate, and it was cold. ”

In the past few days, Yan Kuan has learned to walk, and at the beginning, he used to crawl like a baby.

There are all kinds of delicious vegetarian dishes on the table, such as green vegetables, tofu, and bamboo shoots.

Yan Kuan has just learned to use chopsticks now, and the old man still remembers that when this child learned for the first time, he would lose his temper with himself, and he couldn't catch the food, and he was so angry that his eyes were full of tears.

But I don't know if it's because the chopsticks are wood, Yan Kuan, who got serious, soon learned how to pick up vegetables by himself, and he was very careful.

Yan Kuan especially likes to eat vegetarian dishes, and he can't eat meat, but vegetarian dishes will always be ranked first in his heart.

"Daddy, good ...... Delicious!"

Yan Kuan took a mouthful of green vegetables and put it in his mouth, and couldn't help squinting his eyes deliciously, looking like he was enjoying it.

The old man looked at the child kindly and said, "Eat more if it's delicious." ”

"Daddy...... Also...... Eat!"

"Daddy isn't hungry, Daddy watches you eat. ”

Yan Kuan scratched his cheek, looking puzzled, but was soon attracted by the delicious meal.

A smile appeared on the corner of the old man's mouth.

Regardless of whether Yan Kuan is a demon or not, it is his son.

The heart is sinister, he is old...... If something really happened and he couldn't even protect it, then the only way was to get out of here and find a place where no one was around until Yan Kuan had the ability to protect himself.

The old man was now already thinking about it.

The candlelight reflected the window paper, revealing the blurred dark shadows of the two of them.

Merely......

A scene that should have been quiet and peaceful was seen by many people.

In many cases, once you slip through the cracks, it's hard to keep it a secret.

A small piece of paper floated in the faint crack under the door, then folded itself into the shape of a paper figure, quietly climbed to the top of the cabinet, and then turned into an eye again.

The harmonious scene between the two was seen by the man in black hiding in the alley not far from the courtyard through the eyes of the piece of paper.

The moment I saw Yan Kuan,

His mind fluctuated suddenly, and his breath suddenly leaked.

'Not good!'

The man in black left the place in an instant, and in the next moment, the three people of the ghost department appeared in the dark alleyway at the same time.

“...... It seems that there is a bug in addition to those two flies. ”

"Let's set up a few more people......"

This is something the devil has ordered, and not too many people will know about it for the time being. ”

Hey—we're the ones who suffer. ”

Okay, don't complain, it's a big deal at this time, so let's go back quickly. ”

"Hmmm......"

Not long after the three of them left, the quiet alleyway returned to its original appearance.

But after a while, the three of them reappeared in place, looked at each other, and shook their heads.

Coo-goo-goo......

It was dawning, and the rooster couldn't wait to start crowing, and pedestrians began to appear on the streets.

In a corner of the alley wall, the original masonry fell as lightly as paper, turning into the appearance of a man in black.

The man glanced around and muttered, "Now in this case, we can only wait for the main body to come." ”

Thanks to the fact that he is a paper man, he has no vital signs, and he relies on a little aura of ontology separation to maintain thinking and action, otherwise he will fall into the hands of the Ministry of Ghosts, and he may not know how to find the body along the vine.

The cold wind swirled around the alley, and the man in black had already disappeared and left.

......

In the courtyard diagonally opposite the county office.

As soon as Li Xian opened the door, he saw three people sitting on a stone bench outside.

Yan Le, who always looks mournful, the little sixth son who is in good spirits, and Ren Shiwan, who looks beautiful after grooming.

"The host ......"

Brother Li. ”

"Lord Baijiang. ”

Seeing Li Xian coming out of the house, the three of them immediately got up and bowed their hands.

Li Xian nodded and said, "Let's go......"

took three followers directly to the inn where Zhang Qingshi lived.

After a night, Zhang Qingshi obviously still looked frightened, standing at the door of the inn and walking around, when he looked up and saw Li Xian, he hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Li Xian's shoulders with both hands, looked left and right, and was relieved to see Li Xian's intact appearance.

He said with palpitations: "Xiaoxian, I scared my uncle to death yesterday, but fortunately you are fine." ”

People can be ruthless, Zhang Qingshi and Zhong Yuan have also been friends for many years, but what Cheng wants to be like that, the whole family of three......

"Uncle Qingshi, it's okay, I'm very strong. ”

Li Xian puffed up the strong biceps muscles on his arm and said with relief.

When Zhang Qingshi saw Li Xian's funny appearance, he immediately couldn't cry or laugh. He didn't sleep well last night, he was afraid that Xiao Xian, this kid, had three longs and two shorts, and when the time came, something really happened, how could he see Li Kaiming under Jiuquan.

Li Xian said: "By the way, Uncle Qingshi, the luggage is all packed." ”

Zhang Qingshi said: "It's cleaned up, it's cleaned up, a soldier brother came to tell me last night." ”

Uncle Qingshi will trouble you to bring a child back this time. ”

Pick up 10,000 and come here. ”

Li Xian turned around and shouted at the trio who were consciously hiding aside.

Briefly introduced Ren Shiwan to Zhang Qingshi.

"After returning to Wujun, Uncle Qingshi will trouble you to tell the dog, and he will know what to do. ”

Zhang Qingshi nodded, grabbed Li Xian's hand tightly, and looked at the child who has now become a man seriously, and the corners of his mouth gradually raised a happy smile.

"In the army, you must take care of your own safety. ”

Syllable...... snapped and patted Li Xian's shoulder hard.

"This martial arts is going to come on, Uncle Qingshi can't watch you win the ranking, but the old folks in Wanxi Village are still waiting for you to return to your hometown with the champion clothes!"

Hahahaha-"

Li Xian replied with a smile: "Don't worry, Uncle Qingshi, you just wait for my good news." ”

"Phew—"

At this time, a carriage on the street slowly stopped, and the driver saw Li Xian respectfully clenching his fists.

Lord Baijiang...... Sir, everything is arranged, please rest assured. ”

Li Xian nodded.

Wu Jun is some distance away from the wilderness, he is not worried that the two of them will go on the road alone, this is he specially asked Wang Jinglin to find a few good hands to escort, the route back is also carefully selected, there are Wang family's businesses along the way, if there is any emergency, you can receive the news as soon as possible.

Then the guys at the inn helped to carry the luggage to the carriage.

Syllable!

The whip roared in the air.

"Drive-"

The time of parting always passes quickly.

The group was talking, and soon came to the gate of the city, and the crowd was surging, countless people came in, and countless people went out.

Along the way, Li Xian and Zhang Qingshi said everything they should say, and Li Xian called Ren Shiwan to say two words alone.

The carriage in front was already being inspected by the guards guarding the city, and Li Xian and Ren Shiwan walked behind the carriage.

Li Xian had a gentle smile on his face and advised: "The road to Wujun is long, pay attention to safety along the way." ”

Ren Shiwan raised his head and looked at Li Xian seriously, and nodded heavily: "Master, please rest assured, I will definitely protect Uncle Qingshi." ”

"Haha-"

Li Xian had a smile on his face and patted Ren Shiwan's shoulder: "You stinky little ghost, it's enough to protect yourself...... ”

"After arriving in Wujun, don't be afraid, Li Zhao is my own brother, he will help you, what about you......"

I patted the position of the heart.

"Work hard, go for it......"

Ren Shiwan nodded, turned around and went straight to the carriage.

I won't let you down. He thought.

Li Xian stood in place, raised his hand and shook it, and soon after the carriage that Zhang Qingshi was sitting in passed the inspection, the carriage mixed with the crowd out of the city gradually disappeared from sight.

I feel a little empty in my heart, and I don't know if it's a blessing or a regret.

quickly gathered his emotions, turned to Yan Le and Xiao Liuzi and said, "I have to go to a place to do something, you go back first." ”

Xiao Liuzi was anxious, and immediately said: "Brother Li...... Isn't it, so fast?"

"Ouch-"

Xiao Liuzi covered his head and shouted.

Li Xian said helplessly: "Okay, don't do this! I don't know how much force I use...... It's not appropriate for you two to go where I'm going. ”

"It's really not suitable!"

Seeing Brother Li's resolute attitude, Xiao Liuzi had a stupid look on his face, so he could only nod his head.

Yan Le looked at Xiao Liuzi with a deflated look, and a faint smile appeared on his frustrated cheeks.

Let Jean ...... Let's let. ”

Then

A group of dusty knights rode in from the city gates.
