Chapter 032: Cutting the Grass and Eradicating the Roots?

The wooden house was built after Mulan left, and it was autumn after a few days of living. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The day is getting colder day by day, and at night the wind blows on all sides, but it's okay, Aunt Hao can't stand the cold, and moves back to the cave early to sleep on her kang.

As soon as Aunt Hao left, everyone moved back with them, and this became a special place to store things.

Hou Qi and Xiao Ba walked around the wooden house, and saw salted fish and dried meat hanging on the beams inside, untanned animal skins hanging on the wall, and large and small porcelain jars and clay pots on the ground, revealing a sour and salty smell. Although there are people, it does not look like a place to live at all.

The two pinched their noses and came out, turned back and reported that they had not seen anyone.

Sheng San looked into the distance, the twilight was four, the mountains and fields were vast, and it was about to get dark in a while. He was anxious and didn't want to put it off until tomorrow, so he searched his memory and ordered, "There should be a cave near here, and I will look for it again." ”

The two responded in unison, and went separately to look for them as instructed, and sure enough, they found a hole in the cliff wall at the back of the wooden house. It is carefully covered with stones and hay, and it is really not easy to find if it is not for the careful waiting.

Remove the hay, remove the stones, shake the fire and enter the hole, and see that there are kang and couch, table and chair, although it is simple, but it is also full of warmth. After counting, there were five bunks, and in the innermost part was a four-legged bed, and I think there was a young child living on this island.

Hou Qiyuan thought that this island would be a desolate place where no grass grows, and when he saw it with his own eyes, he knew that it was not as eerie and terrifying as the legend, but there were mountains and rivers, grass and trees, and the scenery was not bad. Rao was so surprised that the island was inhabited by living people.

What surprised him the most was the Holy Three.

In fact, the waterway had already been opened, and only Shengsan insisted on going to the island in person. Naturally, you can't treat your master as sloppily and casually as you treat water ghosts, and you can't take any risks. So the wages were raised again and again, and it took months of work for the water ghosts to erect the iron cables of the escort between the bare reef island and the various reefs.

After such a labor-intensive and time-consuming and wasteful preparation, I finally crossed the whirlpool at the high tide today, and came to the island as the Holy Three wished.

He inquired with Four, Five, and Six, who had followed the Holy Three since childhood, and confirmed that the Holy Three had not come to Shouzhen Island before. A person who has not set foot in this place, there is an "old friend" who has never met here, not to mention, and even knows the fact that people live in caves, so how can he not be suspicious?

Could it be that his master has psychic abilities?

That's not right, it's the dead who are psychic, and they're looking for a living person. It should be said that two strangers who are separated from each other can fully understand each other's minds, could it be that this is the true meaning of "divine friendship"?

When he was thinking wildly, Xiaoba had already called Shengshang and Shan Jiu in a babbling voice.

Sheng San entered the cave and looked around, picked up the oil lamp on the table and watched for a while, then bent down to help up the small stool that fell to the ground, and a slight smile appeared on his lips, "I think we came suddenly, and several cave masters hurriedly hid because we were bad people." ”

"Go down and search. Shan Jiu said in a muffled voice, and he was about to go out of the cave.

Shengsan stretched out his hand to stop him, "Let's let Xiaoba and Houqi go, you will only frighten them if you go." ”

Xiaoba laughed and joked to Shan Jiu: "No, your face is the same as that of an ice sculpture, and you can't speak, you will definitely leave as soon as you see someone, no matter how bold you are, you will be scared." ”

Shan Jiumu kept a face and didn't speak, and said in his heart that it was the fastest, wasn't it? Why waste that tongue effort?

Sheng San smiled slightly, turned his head and instructed Hou Qi, "When I saw a few cave masters, I said that we were entrusted to visit the descendants of the Xie Guo Mansion, and asked her to meet with me." ”

Hearing this, Hou Qi gasped and blurted out, "Is there a descendant in the Mansion of Jieguo?"

was lightly glanced at by Sheng San, Fang realized that he was too talkative, and he couldn't ask the sentence "How could the descendants of the Duke of Jieguo live here". Deserved, he and Hachichi went out of the cave and searched nearby.

"Do you want to go back to the boat and wait?" Shan Jiu asked respectfully.

Shengsan shook his head, "Just wait here." ”

Ask Shan Jiu for a fire fold and light the oil lamp on the table. After a burst of grass fragrance, the smell of guano spread everywhere, and even Shan Jiu frowned, but Sheng San sniffed two deep sips with interest, "The taste is really special." ”

The tone is cheerful, and the expression brings a hint of nostalgia.

The days are short, and as soon as the sun sets, it becomes dark. Today there are many clouds, and the moon is obscured. The chili woman was afraid of attracting people, so she didn't dare to light a fire, and the stone cave was pitch black, and she couldn't see her fingers.

Zhang leaned his body against the stone wall at the entrance of the cave, and looked out through the thinnest part of the water curtain, and vaguely saw two bright spots, moving near and far. I think the people on the boat lit torches and searched for their traces.

"These goddamn bastards, they actually found the island, why didn't they let the beasts bite alive?" Yan Hong scolded through gritted teeth, hunching her shoulders.

It was already very cold at night, and the abundant water vapor added a bit of coolness to the cave, but it was impossible to light a fire to keep warm. Yan Hong wrapped all the clothes she had brought, still shivering with cold. She didn't say that she was lazy and didn't get enough things, and blamed all the fault on those people.

Zhang brought two animal skins, one on the ground, and the other would be enough for two people. The pepper woman is old, and Aunt Hao's legs and feet are not good, so she naturally has to use the two old ones first.

Yan Hong suddenly cursed that the people on the ship would not die well, and suddenly complained that the Zhang family did not bring more than two animal skins. Both Zhang and Chili didn't bother to pay attention to her, but Aunt Hao listened to her nasal voice getting heavier and heavier, and she couldn't bear it, so she said, "Why don't you come and squeeze with us?"

"Tell her to freeze. Without waiting for Yan Hong's reaction, Zhang picked up the conversation angrily, "Who told her not to bring it to her own house?"

Yan Hong's nose snorted, and she was about to speak, when she heard the sound of shouting outside, she hurriedly pressed down the stubble, and pricked up her ears to listen. The sound of the water was loud, and I couldn't hear it very clearly, and I could vaguely hear the words "friends on the island".

Zhang moved to the entrance of the cave, listened carefully with his ears close to the water curtain, and turned pale with bluff, hurriedly retreated, and said in a low voice: "It's terrible, I said that I came to find the descendants of the Guogong Mansion......"

When Aunt Chili and Aunt Hao heard this, their faces also changed, "Isn't the descendant of the Duke of Xie Guo Mansion, Mulan?"

They don't understand the affairs of the court, they only know that the Jieguo Mansion has committed the great crime of the Zhulian Nine Clans, and even the Yang family's maiden family has not been spared, so they have been raided and destroyed. Hearing the news from the people who had been exiled from behind, Yang immediately fainted. was depressed for a few days, and then committed suicide by jumping into the sea when he was not paying attention.

After Mulan was a sinner, the people from the government came to the island, which was to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots!
