111. Volcano
Jun Qianyu took the antidote to scattering gongsan, and immediately sat cross-legged on the ground, using the heat rising in the dantian to open up the blocked meridians inch by inch, and slowly recover his strength.
Xie Xuanwei said coldly to Jun Qianyu: "Prepare, set off in three days, you take me to find her, and I will give you the antidote to the Nine Insect Corpse Brain Pills!" ”
Jun Qianyu was busy with his luck and did not answer.
Xie Sinan was surprised: "Dad, the guests are already on the way, how can you leave at this time?" ”
"Leave it to Steward Tian, don't bring too many things with you, but you must take the important ones, you may not come back in the future."
"Then what about the things and people on this island, don't we even want a home?" Xie Sinan was terrified, she grew up on the island, for her, this is the whole world, she can't imagine what she will do if she never comes back here.
"Silly boy, we can only have a real home if we find your mother!" Xie Xuanwei gently touched Xie Sinan's head like a real loving father.
"Don't you want anything here? And so many others? Xie Sinan asked in a panic, the house where she lived from childhood to adulthood, the furniture used, and the thousands of people on the island, although she didn't care about them beating and scolding at will on weekdays, but she regarded them as her own property in her heart! Say no, don't want it, she really can't accept it.
And what the world outside the island is like, she doesn't know at all, she used to want to go out because she has this island as her backing, when she is unhappy, she can come back, but if she wants to abandon a qiē out, she feels deeply afraid.
This fear even surpassed her feelings for Jun Qianyu: "It's because he's right, because my father promised to let her go, and I'm afraid that he will reveal the secrets of the island after he goes out, so he doesn't even want home, right?" Daddy, I don't want to go, you kill him, I don't want him anymore, Daddy don't leave our home. In the end, she even burst into tears.
"Good, let's ask him to take us to your mother, didn't you often cry when you were a child and asked me to take you to your mother?" Xie Xuanwei patiently persuaded Xie Sinan.
"No, I don't want any mother, I want to stay here, this is our home!" Xie Sinan cried.
"Shut up!" Xie Xuanwei shouted angrily, "You come with me!" He took Xie Sinan to the door and pointed to the tall volcano in the distance, "Do you see that mountain?" ”
Xie Sinan nodded inexplicably: "Hmm." She knew from a young age that the mountain top erupted with heat all year round, which is why the island's climate is so spring-like.
Xie Xuanwei suddenly changed the topic, and said with emotion: "Back then, I was alone with you, I was chased by thousands of officers and soldiers, and in desperation, I grabbed a fishing boat and went to sea, drifting on the sea for several days, without water and food, I thought I would definitely die, but I didn't expect to be rescued by a stranger by chance, that is, the former island owner, do you remember?" ”
Xie Sinan thought for a while: "I vaguely remember that it was an old man with gray hair and beard. ”
"The previous owner of the island is indeed a strange man, proficient in the art of Qimen Dunjia, all the organs on this island and outside the island were arranged by him, but unfortunately when he met us, he knew that his time was short, and after passing the position of the island owner to me, he passed away not long after."
Xie Sinan didn't quite understand what Xie Xuanwei meant when he told her: "In this case, Daddy should cherish the island left to us by the old grandfather, why don't you give it up?" ”
Xie Xuanwei suddenly talked about the volcano on the island again: "The belly of that mountain is full of hot magma, and once it erupts, the entire island will be covered with magma, and not a single grass or tree will be spared." ”
"Ahh Xie Sinan exclaimed, covering his mouth with his right hand, "That mountain is so terrifying?" So when will it erupt? ”
"The former island lord had calculated that the mountain would erupt in a few months, and these days, do you feel very hot, and sometimes tomorrow is a clear sky, but for no reason you will hear a rumbling sound?"
"Uh-huh!" Xie Sinan nodded again and again, it is indeed a lot hotter these days, and when she sleeps at night, she is often woken up by thunder, and when she gets up and opens the window, it is the bright moon.
"The rumbling sound is emitted by the mountain activity, and the temperature is getting higher and higher, which also shows that the magma activity in the mountain's belly is frequent, it seems that what the previous island owner said is true, even if this incident does not happen, I originally planned to take you away in the near future." Xie Xuanwei said.
"Natian Steward and Qiu Niang, are they all with us?" There are many henchmen of Xie Xuanwei on this island, and in addition to Qiu Niang, he has also pampered several concubines, and they are still living on the island.
Xie Xuanwei shook his head: "There are too many people, it's too refreshing, just the two of us, just bring this kid, you can rest assured, Daddy has silver, settle down in the future, and won't let you suffer, as long as we find your mother, let's go find a place where no one is, and live together as a family." ”
"Daddy!" Xie Sinan leaned on Xie Xuanwei's arms and put his hands around his waist: "I'm so reluctant." She doesn't pay much attention to the people on the island, but after all, this is a place where she grew up, and her feelings are extraordinary.
At this time, Jun Qianyu had already finished his work, and he only felt that the internal breath around his body was running unhindered, and he was already unharmed, so he walked out: "I still need to find someone." ”
"No way!" Xie Xuanwei said, "No one on this island can leave. ”
Jun Qianyu was furious: "There are thousands of lives on this island, and you can bear to let them be destroyed like this? Although he couldn't speak when he was exercising, the words of the two of them were all listened to without missing a word.
Xie Xuanwei sneered: "The people who come to this island, their lives are mine, I can deal with them how I want, where is your turn to speak?" ”
"The person I'm looking for has a lot to do with the person you're looking for, if you don't let me take her away, you'll definitely regret it!"
"Who the hell is it, bring it to me!" Xie Xuanwei said coldly.
Jun Qianyu knew that this island was so dangerous, and he just wanted to take Ning Xi away as much as possible, so he didn't care so much, and said directly: "Her name is Ning Xi, she is a chef, and she came to the island with me." ”
"Ningxi?" Xie Xuanwei felt familiar, and thought for a while, "Could it be that he is the first-class chef who was just selected this time?" ”
Jun Qianyu said: "Her cooking skills are indeed extraordinary. ”
Xie Xuanwei said to Xie Sinan: "You go and ask someone to bring the one named Ning Xi over." ”
"Yes, Daddy!" Xie Sinan trotted out to call someone.
Xie Xuanwei looked at Jun Qianyu coldly: "You'd better not let me down." ”
Not long after, Xie Sinan hurriedly ran back again: "Dad, it's not good, something happened over there, Mr. Wu is crazy about them." ”
It is said that Ning Xi and You Zhenniang opened the lid of the bamboo basket at that time, but found that it was not an animal, but a live and smooth little baby, the baby was asleep, the little fingers were still in the mouth, sucking and sucking, the whole body was red, it should have been born a few days ago.
You Zhenniang was so frightened that her legs were weak, she sat on the ground, looking at the people around her in horror, and Ning Xi also took a few steps back in fear.
Manager Wu stared at the sharp knife on the board, and his voice was bewitching: "Let's do it, whoever does it first, the position of the chef is hers, and the qiē I saw in that house is also hers." It's okay, close your eyes, it's no different from the lamb and pig you usually handle. ”
"No, no, you can't do that. I know a lot of recipes for nourishing soups, and I can make soups that taste better and work better than this, and you believe me, don't kill these children, I will definitely make a soup that will satisfy you. Ning Xi said loudly.
Manager Wu's face was cold: "Have you forgotten, I said a long time ago that the most important thing to work here is to be obedient?" ”
After speaking, Manager Wu turned his gaze to You Zhenniang: "Go, I know, you are unwilling in your heart, why can she press you everywhere, but in this matter, you must be able to do better than her, go!" ”
You Zhenniang's eyes changed from fear to confusion, she stood up blankly, and walked towards the bamboo basket step by step, yes, this is her chance to turn over, what is the little thing in the bamboo basket, she has killed chickens and sheep, do you need to be afraid? It's just a piece of meat.
She slowly reached for the sharp knife, yes, as long as she made the first move, everything she wanted would be hers.
Ning Xi suddenly rushed over and slapped her in the face: "You Zhenniang, are you crazy?" That's a human life! ”
You Zhenniang laughed instead: "Human life? Haha, what a life is not a life! Why can't you eat anything else? I think you're scared, I'm afraid I'll overtake you! After saying that, he quickly grabbed the sharp knife in his hand, and with the other hand he was about to go to the bamboo basket.
"It's really crazy!" Ning Xi rushed over and snatched the knife in her hand, and the two scuffled, but Manager Wu and the others stood on the side and watched the excitement without moving.
Ning Xi held You Zhenniang's hand holding the knife with both hands, and wanted to take the knife down, You Zhenniang struggled hard, and the two accidentally knocked down the bamboo basket in front of them during the scuffle, the bamboo basket rolled on the stove a few times, and almost stopped next to a cauldron, Ning Xi's heart almost jumped out.
The cauldron was full of boiling water, and the flames under the stove were so strong that the boiling water in the pot couldn't stop boiling.
Ning Xi took advantage of You Zhenniang's unpreparedness, endured the pain of being pulled by her hair, and suddenly let go of a hand and poked her eyes hard, You Zhenniang exhaled in pain, covered her eyes with her hand, Ning Xi took the opportunity to take out a bag of things from her arms and threw it into the stove.
The raging fire in the stove swallowed up the bag of cloth towels that Ning Xi threw in, and Mr. Wu didn't notice anything, a puff of white smoke quietly poured out of the stove and drifted in this small kitchen, except for Ning Xi, who deliberately held his breath, everyone else inhaled defenselessly.
