After entering the village, Ah Zi and Yun Xiao talked in front of the small stone house for a long time, and looked at the strong man on the side suspiciously: "Uncle, is the wild girl really in there? Don't you fool me!"

"Yes. It was Yun Xiao who replied, he gestured to the broken rock above the small stone house built against the wall, and smiled faintly.

Ah Zi raised his eyes and looked up, startled.

The broken rock is extremely high, steep and precipitous, difficult to go up and down, and there are thorns all over it, but there are dozens of jackals, tigers and leopards stepping on the thorns, lingering on it.

"The wild girl has always had a beast fate, and everyone in the village knows it, but they didn't expect that this girl was originally from the Shentu family...... It makes perfect sense. The strong man casually glanced at the beast on the broken rock, and said a few words casually. "If you want to persuade her to go back and get married, we don't object, the girl's family is also going to marry, but if she really shouldn't, we can't do it...... But the visitor is a guest, if you two little dolls don't dislike it, you can stay in our village for a few days and slowly persuade her. ”

Ah Zi was puzzled: "Le Zheng Wuxian is good-looking, except that his body is too weak, there is really nothing bad, why does the wild girl refuse?" Ah Zi frowned and then puffed up her cheeks, "No, I must say that she will marry Le Zheng Wuxian!"

Yun Xiao frowned slightly, seeing this situation, he had to raise his hand and say politely to the man: "Thank you for staying, I'm afraid the two of us will have to bother in the village for a few days." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, it's a guest, and besides, you're still here for the wild girls in the village......" The man was saying when he heard someone shouting at the door of the village.

"Fourth, you're outside! Come and see the big sweet potatoes I planted! They are bigger than the ones I harvested in October! The old thing said that the seedlings can't be planted in September, so he opened his eyes wide!"

Yun Xiao and Ah Zi heard the prestige, and the voice was a middle-aged man, slender and long, looking older than the strong man next to him, a coarse cloth jacket covered with snow and mud, only one corner of the clothes was carried in the belt, it looked cleaner, a pair of rabbit fur boots on his feet were mostly wet, carrying an iron hoe in his left hand and a bamboo basket in his right hand, the basket was full of sweet potatoes with mud.

"Wow! What a big sweet potato!" Ah Zi saw it at a glance and rushed over: "Roasting sweet potatoes around the fire in the big winter must be fun! And delicious!"

"Haha! You little girl said it well! It's the same as what I thought, uncle! Just right, uncle, I'll invite you to roast sweet potatoes to eat in the evening!" the man looked straight, and immediately said to Ah Zi.

The man beside Yun Xiao seemed to be very accustomed to it, and looked at the slender middle-aged man and said, "Third Senior Brother, these two are friends of the little wild girl, and if you have something to find the wild girl, you have to live in the village for a few days." ”

"Okay, then I'll go back and get some more vegetables from my field, and call them!" replied the man.

Ah Zi played with the sweet potatoes and salivated: "No need! just eat roasted sweet potatoes!"

The slender man immediately laughed: "You little girl is so cute!

"Okay, good!" Ah Zi immediately responded: "Roasted sweet potatoes are fun!"

At night, some of the hundreds of people in the village came back from hunting, and some returned from herding sheep, and they really gathered in groups of three or five to roast sweet potatoes in the snow to eat.

Snowflakes drifted sporadically, occasionally falling into the flames and melting into a thin white mist.

Yun Xiao watched intently, and in his ears was the noisy and noisy laughter and scolding of the men in the village from time to time.

"Boy, why do you two care so much about whether the wild girl marries into the Nale Zheng family or not?" The strong man put a strange square wood with a triangular bottom on the ground in front of him, stepped on it, and then skewered several sweet potatoes into the slender iron rod stretched out by the square wood, and did not use his hands to turn around, just waited, and at the same time casually asked the young man beside him.

Yun Xiao looked at the things in front of him with some curiosity, and said casually when he came back to his senses: "My master and sister and I are temporarily living in the Lezheng Mansion, and we can only return to the valley where we lived after the two of them get married." ”

When the strong man heard this, he couldn't help but wonder: "Why is this?"

Yun Xiao smiled and said, "The two senior sisters and I were ordered to witness the duel between the two families of Shentu Lezheng, and we need to see the two families fulfill the promise made after the victory or defeat is established. ”

After hearing this, the strong man said bluntly: "I can invite Shentu and Lezheng as proof, it seems that you and this little girl have a good background." ”

Yun Xiao was stunned for a moment, smiled faintly, and stopped answering.

The strong man was extremely straightforward, and after thinking about it for a while, he still said bluntly: "If the two of you are not from the martial arts family, they are the disciples of the famous families in the rivers and lakes...... But can be invited to testify for the two families of Shentu Lezheng...... It seems that there are not many of them...... It's only that Guiyun Valley......"

Yun Xiao was stunned, hesitated for a moment, and then said bluntly: "I can't hide it, my junior sister and I are learning from Yunmen." ”

The big man who originally looked down at the sweet potato was stunned, and his fingers shook: "The Cloud Gate of Guiyun Valley?"

Yun Xiao had to nod.

The strong man looked back in a daze and re-examined the quiet young man in front of him: "You two, are Duanmu girl's apprentices?"

Yun Xiao was shocked when he heard this, and looked back at the strong man in a daze: "The owner of the village knows my master?"

The strong man laughed loudly when he heard this: "Of course I know, she is Qingyi's apprentice and our nephew." ”

Yun Xiao was shocked, and he couldn't comprehend it for a while.

The strong man continued: "I am your fourth uncle, Qingyangzi. He pointed over, and it was the slender man who was laughing in unison with Ah Zi: "That's your third uncle and ancestor, Yin Moli...... There is another one who I don't know where to run now, it is your second uncle Shi Muhua. Several of us are from Guiyun Valley, and we are the same disciples of your ancestor Master Qingyi. ”

Yun Xiao was frightened, so he wanted to kneel down and salute: "Yun Xiao greets his uncle." ”

The strong man grabbed him, pointed at him and shouted lightly: "Don't be silent, the disciples of the Cloud Sect have always been cold-hearted, and they have never seen how much they have been involved in the valley after leaving the valley...... And the three of us have lived in seclusion in this village for many years, and we are already mountain village husbands, so you don't need to be polite. ”

Yun Xiao was secretly frightened, sat down on the side again according to his wishes, and couldn't help asking, "Senior Uncle Ancestor...... Why is it in this mountain...... Falling grass for the crown?"

Qingyangzi smiled and patted Yun Xiao's shoulder: "It's too ugly to say that the grass is the crown...... We just built this village, lived in seclusion in this village, guarded something, and stayed away from the rivers and lakes and martial arts. ”

Yun Xiao was stunned: "Guarding something?"

Qingyangzi smiled, but he didn't want to say more: "Yes, as for what to keep, you don't have to ask more, this river and lake is really annoying, and we all think this place is very good, so we stayed for a long time." ”

Yun Xiao saw that he turned his face and didn't want to say more, so it was inconvenient to ask more, so he turned to look at Fang Mu in front of him and asked, "Uncle Shi, what is this?"

Qingyangzi looked down at him and pointed at the square wood, and explained with a smile: "This is specially designed by me to roast sweet potatoes, this iron rod is fixed by the base square wood, and it will not fall off, and at the same time, I used a wooden shaft to make a small machine bracket in the square wood, as long as there is a heavy object pressing on this square wood, the iron rod will rotate by itself." He smiled at the young man in front of him, and said generously: "Don't call me Uncle Ancestor, it's really restrained and cumbersome, just call Uncle Qing." ”

The young man was stunned for a moment, then smiled respectfully and nodded, "Uncle Qing." ”

Qingyangzi saw that he was not timid, stubborn in the courtesy of the young, only felt that although this son was young, he also had pride and affection in his heart, and he was like-minded, so he couldn't help laughing again, and talked to him about the mystery of the wood under his feet.

Over there, Ah Zi and Yin Moli were talking happily on the sweet potato, the two leaned on a big stone while roasting sweet potatoes while boasting and joking, Yin Moli didn't see the second senior brother Shi Muhua appear for a long time, and couldn't help scolding: "This old thing, if you lose, you don't show up, and you don't know where to hide and pretend to be dead!"

Ah Zi said while eating the roasted sweet potato in his hand: "Such a fragrant sweet potato doesn't know how to eat it, it's really stupid!"

"Little girl, talking about the length of people behind her back will bite her tongue. ”

Ah Zi was startled, only to feel that the voice just now seemed to come out of the ground, and the words were clear in his ears but there was no trace.

"Stone Flower, why don't you come out quickly, and you're pretending to be scary here!" Yin Moli scolded, and took out a burning wooden stick from the bonfire and shone it around.

But after looking for it, I didn't see anything like a person around, so I couldn't help but scold angrily: "Old things, more and more can pretend, if you have the ability, don't come out for the rest of your life!"

Ah Zi looked stunned, but when the person in front of her casually threw the torch next to the boulder she was leaning on, the voice was slightly shocked: "Take it away, take it away, but playing with you, it's this uncontrollable dead temper." ”

Ah Zi only felt that the boulder she was leaning on suddenly moved, she was so frightened that she jumped away, and when she turned around, she saw that the hard boulder was loose like dirt, and at the same time slowly stretched from both sides, and then straightened up, gradually revealing the appearance of a person.

The sweet potato in Ah Zi's mouth fell to the ground with a clatter.

The man shrugged on the spot, stretched out his hand and brushed the sand and gravel on his head, then stretched out in two steps, stomped down, and shouted: "Fall!"

In an instant, the mud and stones all over his body seemed to be blown off by an invisible wave of air, and a grain fell to the ground without a single grain.

A sixty-year-old man wearing a long gray-white jacket and gray hair, Huo Ran, appeared in front of Ah Zi.

"Little girl, were you stunned by my move?" the man laughed as he watched Ah Zi's reaction.

Yin Moli scolded and said: "Pretend to be this and that all day long, so that you don't come out, Shihua, you just treat it as a stone!"

The man looked at the sweet potatoes roasted at the slender man's feet, and sighed in slight surprise: "Yin Cunfu, I didn't expect you to really ask you to plant it, but you have the ability!"

Yin Moli was complacent: "Isn't it just some anti-seasonal things, understand the reason, what can't I Yin Moli plant?" He remembered something, and then reprimanded: "Last time you went to help, told you not to scatter my sesame seeds in the sorghum field, but you didn't listen, and I didn't take back any of my half an acre of sesame seeds! I haven't settled this account with you yet!"

The gray-haired old man retorted: "I didn't know that these two things couldn't be planted together, Yin Cunfu, you don't have the heart to say it, who knows." ”

Yin Moli was so angry that he couldn't speak, so he had to say viciously: "Okay, I originally wanted to collect that sesame seed for Ah Cao to eat, but now I want you to destroy it, if it's gone, it's gone." ”

"Didn't you say it earlier!" the old man said angrily, "You said that you planted it for Ah Cao, so I won't make trouble." ”

"You're admitting it this time, you old thing!" Yin Moli breathed fire in his eyes.

The old man turned his head in disbelief.

At this time, Ah Zi came and squatted next to the big stone that was now a pile of sand, and glared at the old man aggrievedly: "Old man, Ah Zi put seven roasted sweet potatoes on the stone, and now all the mud on your body is buried...... You've got to pay for Ah Zi!"

Shi Muhua was stunned for a moment.
