092 Frightened old boy
The three of them had breakfast, rode horses, and traveled all the way west, hurrying their horses and whipping up, it was really much more important to find Xiao Xiao than to find Youtan Qihua.
Wuchen hated to be on the road twenty-four hours a day, but he didn't need to rest, Wuzhi and Peacock also had to rest, and the horse couldn't withstand his tossing so much, so he still walked day and night. This walk was eight days, and this night I walked into a large wood, and there were no residents in front of and behind, so the three of them had to stop and rest in place.
Wu Zhi lit torches, found many dry branches and spread them on the ground, and spread the only quilt on the branches, and said to the peacock, "Sister Peacock, you have a good rest!" ”
Wuzhi's name for the peacock has long changed from the peacock girl to the peacock sister, but Wuchen still calls her the peacock girl as always.
Peacock nodded, "I have a stomachache, I want to go to make it easier, and I will rest when I come back." Thinking about it, he added, "It may take a little longer, don't worry." ”
"Shout, if anything, shout at it, and we'll ...... Just go! After Wu Zhi finished speaking, he couldn't help but blush, but fortunately, the fire was blazing, and he couldn't tell whether Wu Zhi's face was red by the fire or blushing by himself.
The peacock nodded, walked towards the east, walked a few hundred meters, and felt that they could not hear themselves, so he stopped and whistled a few times. Her whistle is very small and soft to ordinary people, and it can't be heard at all from a distance of more than ten meters, but when it is heard by the birds, it is like a thousand miles of sound, no matter how far away it is, it can be heard clearly.
After a while, the woods were full of birds, this time hundreds or thousands, hovering over the peacock's head like a cloud, covering her completely. These birds scrambled to speak, chattering and arguing, and the peacocks were so noisy that they couldn't hear what they were saying, so they scolded, "Shut up!" ”
Her command was not loud, but it had a majesty that people did not dare to resist, and most of the birds stopped calling. Occasionally, one or two of them did not stop talking, and all the birds tilted their heads to look at it, and the birds immediately did not dare to make a sound.
When all the birds stopped calling, I heard a ** cry "Ah! Then with a thud, a dark shadow fell from the tree behind the peacock. The black shadow screamed twice, obviously not lightly.
Peacock exclaimed, "Who? ”
I saw the black shadow get up from the ground, trembling and saying, "Yes, it's me, old urchin, please don't eat me!" ”
What else did the peacock have to say, so he heard Wu Zhi shouting loudly, "Sister Peacock, what's wrong with you?" ”
The peacock immediately whistled at the sky, and in an instant, all the birds dispersed, as if it had never happened, and the old urchin was stunned and even more frightened.
The peacock lowered his head to look at the old urchin and whispered, "If you dare to say a word about what you saw tonight, I will eat you!" ”
Of course, the peacock will not eat people, but in order to prevent the old naughty boy from revealing the secret of heaven, he has to threaten him, since he is afraid that he will eat him, then use this to threaten him, and when the month is over, she can use a spell to erase his memory of this night.
The old urchin heard the peacock threaten him with this, and nodded like a chicken pecking rice. Unexpectedly, a generation of masters was scared like this by a lie, and in the eyes of others, he must die of laughter, but he didn't care at all.
Wuzhi and Wuchen ran one after another, and when they saw that the peacock was not unusual, they were relieved, and they saw the old urchin sitting under the tree, as if he was frightened, and they couldn't help but feel curious.
Wuchen was surprised and delighted, and was surprised that a person with strong martial arts like Uncle Shi would be scared like this, and didn't he say that he was gone, how could he come back. Happily, Uncle Shi is back, and there is hope for saving Xiao Xiao. So he immediately ran over, "Uncle Shi, why are you here, didn't you leave a note saying that you were going?" ”
The old urchin just covered his mouth and shook his head, without saying a word.
The peacock smiled and looked at the old urchin, "Uncle Shi said that he originally wanted to leave, but he felt sorry for the four of you brothers and sisters, so he came back to find us." ”
Wuchen looked at the peacock, "This is what my uncle told you?" ”
Peacock nodded, "Well, I just came here, and just wanted to be convenient, I saw your uncle, and he said that it was good to find us, but I was afraid that I wouldn't find it." ”
Wuchen asked again, "Then what is my uncle doing now, he didn't say a word, as if he was frightened." ”
The old urchin nodded when he heard him say that he was frightened, and shook his head vigorously for fear that the peacock would eat him.
The peacock pretended to be frightened, "The two of us saw a poisonous snake just now, and the poisonous snake wanted to bite his lip, and then somehow, the snake ran away, but your uncle is like that." ”
The peacock was talking nonsense, but he didn't expect that when it came to the point, the old urchin was afraid of the snake because he was afraid of coming home, even if it was a small snake a few inches long that was not poisonous, he was afraid to yell.
He is aware of this problem, dustless and endless, and it is even more common to encounter snakes in the woods. Wuchen no longer doubted, picked up the old naughty boy, saw that he was still covering his mouth, and said with a smile, "Uncle Shi, don't be afraid, it can't bite your mouth." ”
The old naughty boy was afraid, and wanted to speak, wanting to know what was going on in the dustless and endless way, and he was afraid that the peacock would eat him. Listening to Wuchen believing the peacock's words to comfort himself, the tears of grievance fell drop by drop, but he didn't forget to cover his mouth.
The three of them walked back, and the peacock looked back, thinking, "This old naughty boy is bad for me, I haven't heard them say where Xiao Xiao is now, I want to find such an opportunity to ask them again, but it's not easy." And now he knows my identity, although he doesn't necessarily know what I'm going to do, but in his eyes, I'm like a monster. If he doesn't say it now, it's hard to guarantee that he won't say it in two days, I must find a time to talk to him alone, so that he can know how powerful the Dao is leaking heavenly secrets. ”
The peacock was angry in his heart, but he felt funny when he looked at the old naughty boy, he was really angry, and he was not laughing.
Although Wuchen believed the peacock's words, he still wondered in his heart, "Isn't the peacock afraid to go so far to a convenient place?" And how could it be so coincidental that Uncle Shi didn't come early or late, but caught up with us when it was convenient for her, and instead of finding us, he found her? ”
"If you encounter a snake, the master can go up to the tree, then the one who stays on the ground is the peacock, and the snake should attack the peacock! Even if Uncle Shi forgets everything he is scared of, shouldn't a girl be afraid when she sees a snake, why is she so calm? Wu Zhi and I only heard the call of the master just now, but we didn't hear the call of the peacock, is she really not afraid of snakes at all? ”
