Chapter 37: There are many evil tigers in the world

As the lady of the village, I am afraid that no one knows the pain in Mei Sanniang's heart, but Xu Yan is clear. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

A warmth surged in his heart, and the little Taoist priest bowed deeply to the woman.

The old Taoist priest of Chengyunguan told Xu Yan that revenge needs to be repaid, and kindness must be avenged, and revenge must also be avenged.

Outsiders are also people.

"Third sister, are you leaving?"

Xu Yan blinked and asked seriously.

"If the third sister doesn't leave, I still have to accompany the small town ......"

Mei Sanniang's smile was a little bleak, touched Xu Yan's head, and whispered in the ear of the little Taoist: "Today, the cottage will celebrate in a big way, and when those cooks sleep to death, you will leave the Yuan cottage, rest assured, as long as you go far, they will not chase and kill you, a poor Taoist." ”

There was a dark fragrance surging in his ears, but Xu Yan's eyebrows were always frowning, he still wanted to say something, Mei Sanniang had already turned around and left, Xu Yan vaguely heard Zhang He's compliment, as if his wife asked him to go to Yongning Town to buy some gouache, Zhang He, who got the order, didn't dare to delay even a moment, and immediately left the cottage.

Mei Sanniang left the vegetable garden, and the cooks came around again, gossiping that the little Taoist priest has a big life, and he can survive under the hands of the three masters, and then Xu Yan was assigned a bunch of work, with this group of cooks staring, he can't go anywhere for the time being.

In order to celebrate today's harvest, the Yuanshan bandits celebrated a lot, the Zhao family's convoy of cloth is piled up, the sheepskin can be completed into a piece of old height, although the more valuable spices are the least, they are more valuable than cloth and sheepskin, including the dozen or so carriages, the harvest of the Yuanshan bandits can be described as quite rich.

All the mountain bandits everywhere got a benefit, even the back kitchen was no exception, this group of bandits drank even more happily, after eating and drinking, they all fell asleep, and the back kitchen was full of snoring.

Today's meal was good, with wine and meat, but Xu Yan didn't take a bite.

The appearance of the Zhao family's daughter can always appear in front of him, from a pretty woman to a toothless pig-headed waste, just in an instant.

The night is getting deeper and deeper, the starlight is getting brighter and brighter, and Xu Yan's heart is getting heavier and heavier.

At midnight, when all the cooks slept like dead pigs, Xu Yan left the back kitchen.

He did not leave Yuanshanzhai, and according to the memory of the day, he was looking for the whereabouts of the Zhao family's woman.

He really wanted to leave this bandit's lair, but just like that, he always felt that there was a thorn in his heart, and this thorn would stay with him for a long, long time.

The old Taoist priest of Chengyunguan never taught Xu Yan to be a good person, how can he be called a sword demon, how can he be a good man and a woman?

The old Taoist priest often told Xu Yan that those who can be a person with a clear conscience can already be called holy, because in this world, no one will take it seriously at all, and for those guilty, people just don't want to think about it and don't want to mention it.

Xu Yan is not a saint, and he doesn't want to be a saint, he just wants to live a carefree life like a pig.

Under the moonlight, the little Taoist priest's ears still vaguely remained the whispers of the master, he smiled bitterly, and laughed at himself: "Xu Zhijian, Xu Zhijian, people tend to be auspicious and avoid evil, but you avoid auspiciousness and close to evil, what a pig......"

Whether smart or stupid, Xu Yan's footsteps never stopped, searching for the whereabouts of the Zhao family girl in the huge cottage.

He was no longer small, and he could see what the little leaders who dragged the girl away were trying to do, but as long as the girl was not dead, maybe he could help her escape from this bandit.

It's better to be alive than anything else.

The small figure wandered in the cottage, sometimes through the wooden shed, sometimes over the stump, and the little Taoist priest with the moonlight found a few small leaders who were sleeping soundly, but never found the girl of the Zhao family.

Puzzled, Xu Yan stopped near the well on the edge of the cottage, he thought about it and decided to continue searching.

There is still more than an hour before dawn, and there is still plenty of time.

Just as he was about to leave again, Xu Yan suddenly saw that there seemed to be something more on the well in the distance.

By the moonlight, Xu Yan carefully identified it, and finally determined that it was a person.

A man sitting at the mouth of the well!

Could it be the girl of the Zhao family?

Thinking of this, Xu Yan walked lightly towards the wellhead, and being able to sit at the wellhead showed that the other party had plans to commit suicide by throwing himself into the well.

The gentle footsteps will still be heard clearly in the quiet midnight, and when Xu Yan is about to approach the figure sitting at the mouth of the well, the other party also senses that someone is approaching.

Turning her head suddenly, the girl who only wrapped her body in a broken blanket looked like a demon, half of her swollen face was red and red, and the other half of her face was so blue that there was no trace of blood, and the large bruise on her neck probably spread to her whole body, but she was blocked by the broken blanket and couldn't see it.

"Don't jump!"

Xu Yan didn't dare to shout loudly, and said softly, and what he got was a terrifying resentment at the end of his life.

"Even if I am a ghost, I will not let you thieves go!"

Poof!

plunged into the well, and the girl who was tortured disappeared in front of Xu Yan's eyes, one of Xu Yan's hands was still raised, but nothing could be caught.

The wells in the mountains were very deep, at least more than five or six zhang, and Xu Yan often came to fetch water, and he knew what it would mean to jump in.

Such a narrow wellhead, unless the girl doesn't want to die, even if Xu Yan jumps, she will be pulled by the other party and sink into the depths, and no one can save her at all.

After being stunned for a moment, Xu Yan hurriedly rushed to the front and threw the hanging bucket into the well.

"Come up, come up, you're going to drown!"

Lying at the mouth of the well, Xu Yan shouted into the depths of the darkness, the sound of the well could make his voice not travel too far, and it was not easy to alarm others.

I don't know how many times he shouted, Xu Yan felt that his voice was about to be hoarse, and he could still hear the sound of fluttering in the depths before, but then this deep well became quiet.

The little Taoist priest lying at the mouth of the well slowly straightened up, his eyes a little hollow.

Xu Yan couldn't figure out that the girl who was still alive could even help her escape from the bandits, but in a thought, he chose to be buried in the well.

Ghosts can't take revenge, the murderous aura in the bandit village is extremely heavy, and ordinary ghosts will be dispersed by the murderous aura on the mountain bandits even as soon as they appear.

"You can live, why should you die......"

Next to the well, there was a suppressed whisper of the little Taoist, Xu Yan faced the well, his two hands pinched it up, the originally delicate face, at this time distorted and hideous, under the moonlight, it seemed that there was really a ghost next to this well!

"This is the way of the world. ”

Behind Xu Yan, the woman's sad words came, and Mei Sanniang's figure appeared next to the well.

"There are many evil tigers in this world, they eat people and don't spit out bones!"

Mei Sanniang slowly came to Xu Yan's side, rubbed the head of the little Taoist, and sat on the edge of the well, whispering to herself: "Five years ago, I also sat here all night, I also wanted to plunge into the well, I am not reconciled, I am unwilling to sleep alone in the back mountain in the small town, but what can I do, a woman, falling into the hands of a group of bandits, can survive to this day, I have long stopped treating myself as a human being......

Mei Sanniang didn't look at Xu Yan, she always looked at the darkness in the depths of the wellhead, and for a moment, she really wanted to plunge headlong, so that she could be freed.

Sometimes what people think often becomes a reality, looking at the dark wellhead for a long time, Mei Sanniang's body began to slowly lean towards the wellhead, very slowly, so slow that she didn't even notice it.

Xu Yan had already been awakened by Mei Sanniang's appearance, and his expression had recovered, but at this time, Xu Yan's face was even more pale.

Because of his strange left eye, he saw a ghost again.

In Xu Yan's eyes, behind Mei Sanniang, a dim black shadow was pushing the woman sitting at the mouth of the well hard, trying to push Mei Sanniang into the well, and the appearance of that black shadow was vaguely the girl of the Zhao family who jumped into the well before!
