"Thank you, big brother!" Nangong Yan thanked Zhao Jiu, and still pulled Murong Yan to sit down, only to see that the fish on the fire were glowing with a golden luster, the fragrance was attractive, and it looked really delicious. Murong Yan was used to being a vegetarian for breakfast, and still took the dry food out to distribute it to her cousin and Zhao Jiu, but Nangong Yan was curious, reached out and took a small fish, sniffed it first and then slowly brought it to her mouth, her cherry lips opened lightly, and she took a small bite cautiously, and found that there was no fishy smell, and the fish was tender and sweet, it was really delicious.

"Sister, this fish is so delicious, I'm afraid I'll regret it if I don't taste it!"

However, no matter how Nangong Yan induced her, Murong Yan always refused to eat fish, and she cheapened Zhao Jiu and Nangong Yan. The two of them had some left after eating, and there was still a long way to go today, so Zhao Jiu cooked all the fish and carefully wrapped it by Nangong Yan and brought it to his body as dry food. With the lesson of sleeping in the mountains yesterday, the three of them did not dare to delay this day, and inquired while walking, and finally found a family willing to give them a place to stay before dark. It's just that this family can only make one bed, and Zhao Jiu doesn't care, so he makes a straw bunk in the house, and still doesn't wait for dawn to clean up for others.

After a few days of hurrying, Zhao Jiu followed the rules, and took care of the two girls on the way, not only Nangong Yan had a good impression of him, but even Murong Yan was no longer so restrained, and often took a sentence or two. However, the good times didn't last long, and Zhao Jiu almost made a joke.

It turned out that Nangong Yan saw Zhao Jiu catching a fast knife on his back, thinking that he had great knife skills, so he had to learn from Zhao Jiu. Who knew that Nangong Yan's swordsmanship was so exquisite, where could Zhao Jiu's few strokes when he was fast catch her compare, if it weren't for Nangong Yan's timely seizure, Zhao Jiu would definitely have a few more holes in his body.

Nangong Yan didn't care much about Zhao Jiu's martial arts, but Murong Yan saw that it was different in her eyes, and privately reprimanded her cousin for not making good friends, which made Nangong Yan unhappy. Zhao Jiu noticed that the two girls seemed to have a conflict, but the two sisters didn't say anything, and Zhao Jiu naturally couldn't ask, but he still tried his best to take care of the road every day. Nangong Yan was bored in her heart, and wanted to talk to her cousin, but Murong Yan ignored her, so she simply pulled Zhao Jiu aside to talk about everything.

The two talked about the inheritance, Nangong Yan thought that Zhao Jiu's learning was mixed, and the ways of the rivers and lakes seemed to be worse than the exercises, and it would be a little difficult for Yu Pan to follow the path of martial arts, but if he could integrate and become a family, his future achievements would not be under some grandmasters. Zhao Jiu was surprised by these words. He didn't expect Nangong Yan to have such an understanding of martial arts at a young age, thinking that he had practiced in vain all these years, and he suddenly felt remorse in his heart. However, the eldest husband should act as he pleases, since he promised Mr. Qin and Jin Zhukuai, he can't tell the two of them, and the martial arts taught by the two can only be practiced in secret.

Thinking of the past, Zhao Jiu was a little lonely, and Nangong Yan also had something in her heart, so she picked up a rattan and played with it in her hand. Murong Yan left the two of them and walked in front, Rao is heart was angry, she was still thinking about her cousin who had no chest, and when she looked back at this moment, her heart softened again, and she called: "How long will you two be going to wander slowly?" Could it be that you still want to stay in the wilderness tonight? ”

Seeing that her cousin was talking to her, Nangong Yan couldn't help but smile, ran forward and grabbed her cousin in a few steps and said, "As long as my sister is not angry, why not stay for another night?" ”

Murong Yan glared at Nangong Yan and said strangely: "You, you are the least worry-free!" ”

"Hee-hee-"

After seven or eight days of travel, the three of them arrived outside Meilin County, which is separated from Qingfeng City by a river, Murong Yan wanted to take the official road to enter the city, but Nangong Yan coveted the scenery of the mountain road, and begged her sister to follow her again. Because I heard from the people who stayed overnight last night that there are often thieves in the mountains at the junction of the two places, the three of them are all young people, and they are happy for a while, so they think that if they can't meet it, they will be safe, and they will meet it just to eliminate harm for the people!

The terrain of Meilin County is flat, not as undulating as Ci'an County, the sun hangs ahead, and there are several mountains scattered under the clear blue sky. The bird skimmed over the treetops, landed in the grass not far ahead, chirped twice, and flew up and landed on a large tree, pecking at the branches and eating with relish. Nangong Yan looked at it in her eyes and said curiously: "What bird, isn't there fruit in the grass, why do you eat branches?" ”

Zhao Jiu's eyes were sharp, and he had already seen what the bird was pecking, and he said happily at the moment: "Nangong girl, what it eats is exactly the fruit!" ”

"Oh?"

Before the three of them could get closer, the bird fluttered and flew away, and a string of "branches" happened to fall at Murong Yan's feet. I saw that this string of "branches" was reddish-brown all over the body, resembling chicken feet, twisting and twisting very unpleasantly, but Zhao Jiu happily picked it up and said: "This kind of fruit is called a crutch, it was born like this, the entrance is like eating meat, and it can quench your thirst!" ”

Zhao Jiu didn't dislike the bird food in his hand, picked a half-finger-long crutch and sent it to his mouth, chewed it, and it was really sweet, and said to the two sisters: "It's already frosted, although the two girls can taste it with confidence, they are so sweet that they can compete with honey!" ”

Seeing how enthusiastic Zhao Jiu said, Nangong Yan couldn't help but be excited. However, she couldn't get out of her mouth what fell from the bird's mouth, so she broke a branch again, and took it in her hand to realize that the skin of the fruit that Zhao Jiu said was soft. Nangong Yan pinched her nails, put a large section of her crutches under her nose and sniffed it, and sure enough, there was a sweet fragrance. When you enter the mouth, the sweetness comes to your face, mixed with the aroma of wine, which is unpleasant.

"Well, this fruit looks a little crude, but it tastes great!"

Although Murong Yan didn't want to show her appearance in front of Zhao Jiu, she couldn't bear Nangong Yan's best to please her, so she had to taste a short section, but she felt that the meat was fat, and it was really sweet and refreshing.

Because this fruit is rare, all three of them picked up some ripe ones and put them in their baggage, which looked bulging. After a while, the sky suddenly turned cloudy, and the mountain wind gradually rose, and the three of them couldn't help but speed up their steps. Turning the corner in front of Meilin County, the three of them didn't have time to breathe a sigh of relief, and a few people suddenly jumped out of the mountain nest, all armed with knives, guns and sticks, only to see the leader shouted: "Bah! I opened this mountain, and I planted this tree! If you want to cross this road, leave to buy road money! ”

The three of them were taken aback by the sudden situation, and calmed down after a while, only to see Nangong Yanliu raise his eyebrows, step forward two steps and shout: "You dare to block the road and rob in broad daylight, is there any royal law in your eyes!" ”

"Wang Fa?" The head grinned with black teeth, laughed twice, and said, "Uncle, I am the king!" Acquaintances keep the money obediently, or else—"

"How else?"

"Hehe, little girl, uncle pities you for being as beautiful as a flower, it's a pity to be in the wilderness! It's better to go up the mountain with my uncle and me to be our eldest brother's wife, regardless of your fragrant food and spicy drinks, you can enjoy endless glory and wealth! ”

"Phew!" Nangong Yan brushed the ground and drew his sword in his hand, and sneered: "I heard that there are thieves in this mountain, it must be you!" You have done a lot of evil, and I must teach you a good lesson today! ”

"Yo, you can also use the sword, hahaha-" Laughing and laughing, the big black tooth suddenly turned his head and ordered behind him: "Little ones, go on!" Catch alive - the king has a reward! ”
