As she spoke, the little girl suddenly looked around nervously, and found that no one was paying attention to them, and whispered:

"Big brother, Yingying will tell you another secret, every time Yingying finishes the soup, she will forget what she learned today, so Yingying is not stupid, but she deliberately forgets the knowledge taught by her master when she drinks soup. ”

Yang Xiao smiled, thinking in his heart that this little girl named Yingying must have a bad memory and can't remember things.

He said, "Yingying's surname is Meng?"

The little girl's innocent eyes widened and she said in surprise: "Big brother, how do you know." ”

Even if it is Meng Village here, nine out of ten people in the village will have the surname Meng.

He said: "Big brother is a god, you can calculate it with a pinch of your fingers." ”

Meng Yingying's eyes widened, and she said, "Can the eldest brother tell Yingying, when will her father and mother come back?" They all said that Yingying's father and mother went to the mountains and was eaten by tigers and leopards, and it will take a long time to come back. ”

Yang Xiao was in place, and then looked at the little girl, and felt love, no wonder he was dressed in cold clothes, it turned out that his parents died early.

He smiled and said, "Soon, when Yingying grows up, they will come back." ”

"Really?" Meng Yingying was a little disappointed by this answer, because many people had said so before.

"Yingying. The old woman called out to the little girl and smiled kindly, "Come here, bring the soup to the guests." ”

Hearing the voice, the little girl instantly forgot her troubles, and ran to the old woman's side and brought a bowl of soup.

Yang Xiao looked at the thick white soup and said suspiciously: "Old man, I didn't order soup." ”

The old woman smiled and said, "The guests came from afar, and this bowl of soup was given to you by the old woman." ”

Meng Yingying lay on the edge of the table, looked at the soup, and licked her lips.

Yang Xiao moved the soup to Meng Yingying and said with a smile: "Then thank you mother-in-law." ”

Meng Yingying shook her head, pushed the soup back again, and said, "Mother-in-law said that you can only drink one bowl a day." ”

Yang Xiao was a little surprised, looking at the old woman's appearance, she didn't look like a harsh person, that is, there was a problem with the soup.

The old woman heard their conversation and turned around and said, "The old woman's soup is unique, if you drink too much, it will have a great impact on people, and one bowl a day is the most appropriate amount." ”

Hearing this, Yang Xiao was even more puzzled, could it be that the soup contains toxicity, which will kill people.

He picked up the soup bowl and took a sip, his mouth was bitter, and after a while, he felt warm in his stomach and a sweet taste on his tongue.

It's quite a peculiar taste, and the soup doesn't taste good, but it has a bit of a charm of life.

And after drinking, there is a desire to continue drinking.

Yang Xiao drank the soup one by one, and Meng Yingying returned to the old woman when he had taken the first sip and went to work for her.

When the soup bowl bottomed out, Yang Xiao felt refreshed, as if his soul had been cleansed, comfortable from the inside out.

Creak!

At this time, the eight-winged snow cicada screamed twice, because there were mortals around, it didn't dare to speak, but said, "You seem to be looking for someone?"

Yang Xiao was shocked, almost forgetting his main purpose, he wanted to have another bowl of soup, but thinking about the old woman's rules, he didn't speak.

Looking around, most of them were middle-aged people in their thirties and forties, and the oldest was the stall owner and the old woman.

He said, "Mother-in-law, do you know where Mencius is married?"

"Mencius?" the old woman put down the spoon and recalled, "This is a man from a long time ago, what do you ask him for?"

Yang Xiao was overjoyed and said, "I am his friend, and I came to see his family this time." ”

The old woman summoned Meng Yingying, who stood beside her, touched Meng Yingying's little brain, and said, "This is Zicheng Nawa's descendant, and his only descendant." ”

Yang Xiao's pupils shrank, and after chatting for a long time, he had already seen the descendants of Mencius.

He said, "What about Mencius's other relatives?"

The old woman said: "Meng Village has a long heritage, and all the people in the village are relatives of Zicheng, but only Yingying is a direct descendant. ”

Yang Xiao came to Meng Yingying's side, the little girl was not afraid of outsiders, and looked at him with some doubts in her eyes, because she had never heard of the name Mencius.

Meng Yingying pulled the corner of the old woman's clothes and asked, "Mother-in-law, who am Mencius Cheng?"

The old woman looked at the soup in the pot and said, "Elder, an elder from a long time ago. ”

Yang Xiao showed a kind smile and said, "Yingying, can you take me to your house to have a look?"

Meng Yingying hesitated for a moment and nodded.

Saying goodbye to the old woman, Meng Yingying took Yang Xiao to her home.

The house is very simple and clean, a bed, a table and chairs, a roof to protect from the wind and rain, made of wood, some new and some old, and it looks like it has been repaired.

With Meng Yingying's size, it must not work, it should be the neighbors and the name of the village who came to help.

"Big brother, you sit first. Meng Yingying pulled him down to the table, "Yingying will make you tea." ”

"No, I don't. Yang Xiao grabbed Meng Yingying and shook his head at her.

Before I heard it, I heard a stomach growl.

Meng Yingying covered her stomach and said, "That Yingying will cook for you." ”

It seems that there have been no guests at home for a long time, and Meng Yingying is very enthusiastic.

"No, I don't. Yang Xiao grabbed Meng Yingying again, "Big brother cooks for you." ”

Meng Yingying was stunned for a moment, showed a cute smile, and said sweetly: "Okay!"

"Wait. Yang Xiao walked towards the door, "I'll find you some ingredients." ”

There was only a fist-sized piece of bacon and a basket of wild vegetables.

In the past, he was not there, so he couldn't give Meng Yingying a good life, but since he came, he naturally couldn't suffer this baby.

Otherwise, even if Mencius's spirit in heaven forgave him, he would not be able to forgive himself.

After Yang Xiao left, Meng Yingying sighed, looked out the door, her expression was a little disappointed, and muttered, "Will you come back?"

It's not the first time she's seen this kind of situation, but many times, when people leave, they never come back.

Of course, Yang Xiao would not run away, he came to the nearby mountains and forests, looking for wild beasts, and prepared to hunt a game to bring back.

The soul thoughts spread out, and one beast after another came into view.

"Bears, it's too ferocious, it's not good to bring it back and scare the child. ”

"Tiger, fierce looking, meat quality is not good. ”

"Leopards, you can't be cute. ”

"Hmm. Yang Xiao's eyes lit up, and he flashed to a bush.

Seven cute rabbits lay on their stomachs in the grass and nibbled on carrots, not sensing the danger in the slightest.

Yang Xiao used his mana to immobilize the rabbit and snatched the carrot from his mouth.

Braised rabbit meat, shredded carrots, one meat and one vegetable, are both nutritious and nourishing to the body.

Stringing the rabbit with a rope, carrying a few carrots behind him, he returned to Meng Yingying's house.

"Big brother. Meng Yingying saw Yang Xiao come back and ran out happily.

"Wow!" When she saw the rabbit, Meng Yingying's eyes lit up, cute things, girls like it.

Yang Xiao's face darkened, and he suddenly had a bad premonition, it was very likely that he would not be able to eat the braised rabbit meat tonight.

Meng Yingying pointed to the rabbit and said, "This is a gift from the eldest brother to Yingying?"

Yang Xiao picked the smallest rabbit and handed it over, "This is given to you by the eldest brother, and I can use the rest." ”

No, tonight's braised rabbit meat is done.

The rabbit jumped twice in Yang Xiao's hands and was picked up by Meng Yingying, but Meng Yingying's strength was already small, and before he could cover the heat, the rabbit jumped out of his arms.

It ran out of the door desperately, and just two steps after running, an extremely terrifying momentum pressed on it.

The rabbit froze in place, and at this time, it was an extravagant hope that it would even tremble.

Meng Yingying reacted, quickly hugged the rabbit back, and played.

Yang Xiao smiled, a mortal rabbit, still wants to run away in front of him, this is the rhythm of wanting to go against the sky, maybe?

Carrying the remaining rabbits, he came to the house and skillfully skinned and dirty.

During this period, Yang Xiao set up a soundproof array outside the house, and no sound was transmitted at all, for fear of scaring the child and causing a shadow of childhood.

A moment later, a large pot of braised rabbit meat and a plate of stir-fried shredded carrots were served to the table.

Yang Xiao called back to Meng Yingying, who was playing, and the two were ready to eat.

Meng Yingying looked at the shiny and fragrant meat in the basin, and had a bad premonition in her heart.

Her little face wrinkled, pointed to the meat in the basin, and said, "Big brother, is this a rabbit?"

Yang Xiao had expected this, and said, "No, this is pork." ”

"Really?" Meng Yingying was a little incredulous.

Yang Xiao sandwiched a piece of rabbit meat, put it in Meng Yingying's bowl, and said, "Really, how could the big brother lie to you." ”

I love to deceive children in my life, Yang Xiao added in his heart.

Meng Yingying looked at Yang Xiao's sincere gaze, believed his words, and took a bite, it was delicious, the taste was super good, much better than pork.

In an instant, I put the previous questions behind me and took a big gulp.

Night.

Yang Xiao cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and casually played a little uncle, and washed the pots and pans with clean water.

Watching Meng Yingying fall asleep with the little rabbit in her arms, Yang Xiao meditated on the ground.

The eight-winged cicada lay on his shoulder, exhaling the cold air, and falling into a deep sleep with snowflakes in a very small area.

Yang Xiao's consciousness sank into the spiritual sea, ready to cultivate.

Suddenly, Yang Demon emerged from the black sun, his scarlet eyes looked at the consciousness body that had turned into Yang Xiao, pointed to the chain of life and death above, and said, "What did you do?"

This was the first time Yang Mo had spoken to him, and he didn't use an angry tone.

Yang Xiao looked in the direction he was pointing, and suddenly, his pupils shrank.

The chain of life and death, which he couldn't shake with all his might, actually cracked a gap.

Although it was only the size of a hair, Linghai was his world, and he still discovered it.

Yang Xiao's heart shook wildly, what happened? He was as puzzled as Yang Mo.

The chain of life and death could not be split for no reason, and something happened that he didn't know about.

He said, "When did it happen?"

Yang Mo recalled and said, "Two hours ago. ”

The chain of life and death is not only about Yang Xiao, but also about whether he can be born, so Yang Mo's attitude is very cooperative.

Two hours ago, he was drinking soup in the old woman's tea stall.

There was a problem with the soup, and as soon as he thought of this, Yang Xiao instantly got up from the ground and took advantage of the night to come to the old woman's stall.

At this time, the night is very dark, and although there are candles in the village, there are no pedestrians walking on the road.

The daytime stalls also became quiet, and the old woman leaned back in her chair, as if waiting for someone.

Suddenly, the old woman looked in the direction where he was and said with a smile: "Young man, since you are here, you will come over for a meeting." ”

Yang Xiao was shocked in his heart, he had used more than a dozen spells to hide himself, even the Immortal King had not been able to discover him.

He carefully sensed the old woman, as if she were a mortal, and she didn't see any mana in her body.

At this time, instead of relaxing, he became more vigilant.

Such a situation can only show one thing, the old woman's cultivation is very strong, so strong that it is bottomless, and she can pinch him to death with one finger.

Yang Xiao walked out of the darkness and saluted: "I've seen my predecessors." ”

"Senior?" the old woman smiled, "There is only an old woman who sells soup here, and there are no seniors, come and sit next to me for a while." ”

Yang Xiao did not refuse, if the other party wanted to kill him, it would be easy.

The old woman looked at him, her eyes moved to her abdomen, and she seemed to be able to see the spiritual sea in her body through her physical body.

She said: "The chain of life and death, I can't imagine the means to see him again." ”

Yang Xiao asked, "Seniors know the Netherworld. ”

The chain of life and death can only be used by the netherworld, and it is not difficult to guess from the meaning of the old woman's words.

The old woman looked up at the moon with a reminiscing expression on her face, and after a long time, she sighed and did not answer his question, but asked rhetorically: "How did your chain of life and death come about?" ”

Yang Xiao thought about it and told Yang You'er about it.

Now he can be sure that the matter of the cracking of the chain of life and death must be related to the old woman, and maybe the other party can help him solve this matter.

After listening, the old woman looked at him deeply and said, "Go back, come and drink the soup every day in the future." ”

Yang Xiao was overjoyed in his heart, since the old woman said this, it meant to help him solve this matter.

He got up and bowed and returned to Meng Yingying's home.
