Volume 2 Sword Peak Shocking Changes Chapter 70 Cheng Changsheng and Que'er's Happy Times
Su Ximei hadn't dismounted for two days, and her legs were a little stiff, but she still refused to rest, waving her whip desperately, trying to make the horse faster. In the past few days, there are mountain jung's exploration horses from time to time, and Yunping, Tianshui, and Changping are the three major passes of Qingshan County. Although they belong to the military and Jianfeng, they have always been in the same breath and coordinated with each other. Shan Rong is afraid of Sanguan, and there has been no major war for many years. But this time was quite unusual, the scouts sent to Tianshui did not hear back for a long time, and even the sword eagle could not deliver the news, and there was no return. My brother still has to sit at the border, and the information he brings is extremely important, and he is two or three thousand miles away, and it is most reassuring to take a trip by himself.
The horse called the black colt neighed sadly, and it was difficult to hold on, and his front hooves were weak and he fell to the ground. Su Ximei was thinking about the border war, and he couldn't prevent the horse from stumbling forward, so he hurriedly raised his breath and stumbled a few steps before he stood firm. Glancing at the black horse, this horse has been with him for three years, and he has never been left or right, and he doesn't want to leave it here alone today, Su Ximei was ruthless, raised his sword and turned to leave. Before coming, Su Ximei already knew the topography of this road, there was a village more than ten miles ahead, if you were lucky, you would borrow a horse there, it was not far from Guiliu City, even if it was just an ordinary horse, there would be an hour. When the time comes, please ask Brother Lu to send it with a sword boat, and you can arrive at the sect at night.
Thinking like this, Su Ximei's feet were more anxious, and after walking for a while, his legs were no longer numb, and he walked faster and faster, and the sun was turning west, and he could already see the curling smoke rising from the mountain col. In the past two days, Zhan Ximei has only eaten a few mouthfuls of dry food on the horse, and now when he enters the village, he smells the aroma of the food, and his stomach can't help but growl.
Que'er is busy cooking dinner, during this time Cheng Changsheng has to help a few elderly grandparents in the village carry water and firewood every day, Cheng Changsheng can't do farm work, but he is young and has practiced martial arts all year round, and he still has some strength, so he does some chores to help the old people in the village share one or two.
Seeing that the sun was already in the west, thinking that the man should also come back, the finch was happy in her heart, she didn't expect that she could live such a dull and happy life.
went to the kitchen to serve the vegetables, and then went to the jar to scoop some radishes, cabbage and the like, this is the skill that Que'er has only recently learned from the fat aunt, although the pickling is not yet hot, but Cheng Changsheng has to look around the sauce jar every day, and it seems that he can't wait. Today, the finch tasted it, and it had already tasted something, so she took a little and gave it to the man.
Cheng Changsheng poured the last tank of water and said hello to the shovel master, so to say, the old couple still stuffed two duck eggs, Cheng Changsheng accepted it with a smile, and happily carried the flat shoulder and walked home.
After turning a corner, he could already see the smoke rising from the house, Cheng Changsheng could imagine the busy figure of the finch at the moment, looking at the sunset on the horizon, and couldn't help humming a song.
If you go further, you will reach home, but Cheng Changsheng stopped, there was a woman in front of her, dressed in a strong suit, with a sword in her hand, looking into the courtyard.
This woman Chen Changsheng had never seen before, and there were few people in the village who came, thinking of the sword weapon at home, Cheng Changsheng became vigilant. Holding the flat pole tightly with both hands, he walked over little by little.
It was still far away, and the woman had already noticed it, put down the hand that was about to knock on the door, and turned to look at Cheng Changsheng.
Su Ximei walked around the village, the cattle and sheep had been seen, but there was not a horse in sight, he was anxious, he vaguely heard the neighing of horses here, so he came to try his luck, and sure enough, he found Cheng Changsheng's house, and was about to knock on the door, when he suddenly noticed something strange behind him, turned around and looked, and saw Cheng Changsheng holding a flat pole in his hand, and walked lightly.
Su Ximei was stunned, the young man in front of him didn't seem to want to be a child who grew up in the mountain village, although Cheng Changsheng had tanned a little bit these days, but his clothes were much finer than those of the villagers in the village.
Looking at the young woman in front of him, Cheng Changsheng was also a little stunned. The dark color is full of dust, a pair of eyes are red, and the bun is a little scattered, but it still exudes a bit of heroism. Cheng Changsheng slowly put his mind at ease, this woman doesn't look like a bad person, I'm afraid that she will pass by and miss the night.
Su Ximei looked at Cheng Changsheng's vigilance, knew that the young man had misunderstood him, and hurriedly explained.
Cheng Changsheng heard that the woman was just going to buy a horse for use, and his heart was relieved, and the finches inside also heard the sound and came out to watch. Hearing that the woman was young and was traveling alone in the mountains, and the horse had fallen ill again, he hurriedly stepped forward to pull the woman and let Su Ximei into the yard with Cheng Changsheng.
Looking at the table of meals, although they are all common vegetables and fruits in the countryside, they are full of color, flavor and flavor, the yellow corn in the porcelain pot is fragrant, and seeing that Cheng Changsheng and his wife are so enthusiastic, even the horses agreed to lend them to him, he couldn't help but have a great appetite, and he was not polite, so he ate like this.
Seeing that the woman was eating proudly, Que'er also put her mind at ease, and beckoned her husband to join her, and the three of them talked and laughed, and they were very harmonious.
In the evening, the mountain village was very quiet, and every family was enjoying this rare leisure after a tiring day, and the children all returned home, and even Ah Huang next door stopped talking, thinking that they were dealing with its flesh and bones.
Zhan Ximei was sandwiching a piece of eggplant, and he was still holding a shredded radish with sauce in his mouth, and suddenly the whole person paused there, the chopsticks were hanging in the air, not moving, and the next moment, he had already raised his sword and rushed out.
Cheng Changsheng and Que'er froze in place, not understanding what was going on, the woman would be so excited.
"Ahh Cheng Changsheng's face changed, this voice is very familiar, it is the second girl and the big cow of the shovel grandfather's family, the second girl is the granddaughter of the shovel grandfather, and the big cow is his family's hunting dog, the reason why it is called the big cow is because this hound is tall and fierce, the size of a calf, and he follows the second girl all day long, majestic like a loyal guard. Now that even the big cow can't protect the second girl, what happened?
Cheng Changsheng stood up, there is still a sword at home, when is it not necessary to use it at this time? Cheng Changsheng turned around and ran into the room, and after a while, he brought out a wooden box, put the wooden box on the table, and looked at the finch. After all, this is a matter entrusted by Gong Jiu, if there is a mistake today, I am afraid that the happy days of the two will come to an end, Cheng Changsheng wants to hear his wife's thoughts. After being silent for a while, the finch nodded emphatically, some things always have to be faced, and there is no escape.
Cheng Changsheng held a sword in one hand and a finch in the other, and strode towards the outside of the courtyard. He didn't want to leave the finch here, it was too difficult for the two of them to have today, no matter what they faced later, even if they died, they would die together.
Su Ximei only came out of the courtyard when he heard a scream, and the whole person turned into a gray shadow and swept over. Just turned the corner, Su Ximei stopped suddenly, what was that. A rock-like beetle was shaking the body desperately, it was a big dog, the big dog was not dead, screaming and struggling, a pair of eyes fixed on the little girl. A long white bone snake with bloody wings was slowly swimming towards the little girl, and the hideous head of the snake was already raised.
Su Ximei was brought to Sword Peak by her brother since she was a child, and she has seen many fierce beasts in the past twenty years, but she has never seen such a strange thing in front of her. This place is so close to Guiliu, how can there be such a ghostly thing? Gu Bu was surprised in his heart, Su Ximei had already stabbed out with a sword.
The long snake seemed to know Su Ximei's arrival, and he didn't look at it, the blood wings on his body had rotated and whistled towards the slash, Su Ximei was short, and the blood wings swept past against his scalp, and Su Ximei's sword momentum was unabated, and it was already close.
"Whew-" The long tail stabbed down like a sword spear, Su Ximei still didn't stop, and the sword in his hand burst out and slashed towards the snake's head. The long snake didn't expect the woman to be so desperate, so she had to shrink her head in a hurry and protect her with her bloody wings. "Qiang-" A spark splashed on the blood wing, and the long sword failed to cut through the blood wing. Su Ximei was shocked in his heart, what is this, his sword is also from the Sword Washing Valley, not to mention the flesh and blood, even ordinary weapons are broken in two, and now they can't break the blood wings. Without thinking much about it, he reached out and hugged the little girl, turned around and ran.
The serpent then gave chase, and the huge beetle, seeing that the serpent was moving, hurriedly threw the bull in its mouth aside, and rumbled after it.
Cheng Changsheng had only run far before he saw Su Ximei rushing towards him, followed by a terrifying and hideous snake, and a mountain-like figure rumbled and crushed from a distance.
Cheng Changsheng didn't have time to think about it, there was a cave in the village, which was used to store food on weekdays, and now it was just right to deal with the big guy, and when he entered the cave later, the big guy couldn't get in, so he could concentrate on dealing with this strange snake.
Su Ximei saw Cheng Changsheng running over with the finch, and was about to beckon the two of them to be careful, when she suddenly saw Cheng Changsheng carrying the finch, beckoning to herself, turning around and running, and hurriedly hugged the second girl and followed closely.
When the two of them left the village, they were relieved to see that the two monsters were following closely, and they were able to lure the two monsters out, and the old and weak villagers in the village had more life. Cheng Changsheng went all the way into the forest, the forest was full of tall trees, although there was no obstacle to the big snake, but the hill-like beetle was not so easy to walk, the roar was louder, Cheng Changsheng could hear the sound of the forest trees lodging, he didn't care to look back, gritted his teeth and ran desperately.
I don't know how long I ran, but a mountain wall appeared in front of me, and the setting sun shone on the mountain wall, and it was mottled.
Su Ximei didn't know what Cheng Changsheng brought him here for, and when he was puzzled, Cheng Changsheng had disappeared, Su Ximei looked around, and suddenly saw someone waving in a vine in front of him, who was it not Cheng Changsheng?
After such a hesitation, the long snake was already close, and the neighing sound of the snake's mouth was like in the ears. The whistling wind sounded behind him, and Su Ximei didn't need to look to know that it was the blood wing of the bone snake that slashed over again, and hurriedly bent down and shrank his head, rolled on the spot, and rolled into the vine with the second girl in his arms.
Cheng Changsheng pulled up Su Ximei, and ran towards the depths of the cave, this cave is facing the sun, exposed to the scorching sun all year round, very dry, as soon as the bone snake enters the cave, it is a meal. Although this monster is weird, but after all, it is a snake, and it does not like warmth and dryness by nature, and wants to retreat, and when it sees the woman in the hole, it is she who snatches food from her mouth, how can this breath be endured? The long snake roared angrily and chased after the two.
Boom——, it seemed that the whole cave was shaken, and you didn't need to look to know that the beetle must have arrived. Cheng Changsheng walked to the end of the cave, there were several rocks that could be used as a shield, and Cheng Changsheng decided to fight the long snake to the death here.
Putting down the second girl and the finch, Cheng Changsheng and Zhan Ximei stood facing the long snake with their swords in their hands.
