"The Mai people are so well-informed! As soon as we arrived, they came to the door! Chu Qiao couldn't help but say.

Yun Mo was as calm as water, and nodded, "The Mai Sect is the ancestor of the Xiangshi, but it is not boasting!" Their faction's deduction skills are even more proficient, and it is not surprising that they can deduce our itinerary today. ”

"Yun Mo, they came to you at this time, did they want to join forces with the Yun family?" Chu Qiao thought for a while and said, "They should know that the Yun family and the Mai Sect are in the same line, right?" ”

Yun Mo nodded, "They must know this, the ancestor of the Yun family back then is still enshrined in the Mai Sect, and he can be regarded as a very brilliant and outstanding figure in the Mai Sect!" ”

"I see."

As he spoke, a young man followed the elder of the Yun family into the room.

The young man looked magnificent, with a faint hint of arrogance between his eyebrows, his eyes were shining, and his aura was restrained, and he looked like a cultivator.

However, what Miss Chu Qiao was thinking at this time was - for Mao, the god stick, was not wearing a Taoist robe? Don't the people of the Mai faction like to wear Taoist robes and pretend to be ghosts everywhere?

"Ning Can, a disciple of the Mai Sect, has seen the young master of the Yun family!" The young man bowed slightly to Yun Mo without being humble or arrogant, and Yun Mo also stood up and nodded, which was considered a return gift.

Ning Can glanced up at Yun Mo, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly returned to normal, "Young Master of the Yun family, the head of our family wants to ask the young master to talk about it, I don't know if the young master can appreciate his face." ”

Yun Mo pondered for a moment, "Okay." ”

Chu Qiao immediately said beside him, "I'm going too!" ”

The Great Elder also looked embarrassed, "Young Master, let me accompany you." The Forbidden Mountain has not been very peaceful these days. ”

Yun Mo smiled, "Since it is the head of the Mai Sect who invited him, there will definitely be no accidents, you can rest assured!" ”

Ning Can also smiled and said, "Young Master Yun is very generous, my master has also instructed, if Young Master Yun is not at ease, you can bring some entourage to my Mai station." ”

"Brother Ning...... Is it a disciple of Mai's master? As soon as Yun Mo heard Ning Can's title, he naturally understood Ning Can's identity.

Xuanmen sects like the Mai School are very important to status. The head of the sect generally does not accept apprentices easily, and if he accepts a disciple who is passed down from family to family, then this disciple will most likely inherit the mantle in the future.

The inheritance of the head of the Mai faction is different from the family. The bloodline that the family pays attention to, whoever has the purer power of the bloodline and the higher the talent, is most likely to get the inheritance of the head of the family. And there is only one rule of the Mai faction - whoever is talented and strong will become the next leader!

It seems that this Ning Can has a high status in the Mai faction, and his talent is also among the best among his peers!

Only then did Yun Mo understand that it was no wonder that the head of the Mai faction would send Ning Can to invite him, and this "specification" was not low.

"He is indeed a disciple of the master." Ning Can's face couldn't hide the smugness, it seemed that he was only in his twenties, and he was designated as the heir of the future head of the family, no wonder he had a sense of arrogance.

"I see, disrespectful, disrespectful!" Yun Mo hugged his fist at Ning Can, this is considered an ordinary courtesy for Ning Can, of course Ning Can will not know what to do, so he quickly returned a salute to Yun Mo, and the smile on his face was much kinder.

"Young Master of the Yun Family, please!" Ning Can made a gesture of invitation, Yun Mo calmly followed, Chu Qiao wanted to follow, but was stopped by Chu Mingyu, "Qiao Qiao, it's not good for you to go." I think Yun Mo has his own measure, and he will be fine. ”

After Yun Mo left with Ning Can, Chu Qiao still said uneasily, "The Mai Sect won't be bad for Yun Mo, right?" ”

The Great Elder of the Yun Family on the side said, "Probably not, the Mai Sect has a long history with the Yun Family, at this time, the Mai Sect is probably trying to find an ally, the Yun Family is inherited from the Mai Sect, so it is naturally the best ally." ”

Hearing what the Great Elder of the Yun Family said, Chu Qiao was a lot more relieved.

"Dad, Uncle Yun, I want to go out for a walk." Chu Qiao sat for a while, still a little unable to sit still, and simply spoke.

"Don't walk around, it's not a normal day now, each has its own territory under the Forbidden Mountain, don't mistakenly trespass into someone else's territory." Chu Mingyu knew Chu Qiao's temperament, and couldn't help but dissuade him.

"Oops, Dad, I'm suffocating! I just went to the town to sit and sit. Chu Qiao said coquettishly, "I heard that the town is still an ancient town, many customs have been followed for hundreds of years, and there are many ancient buildings, so I should go to see the scenery!" I don't usually have time to travel, so you just let me take a look! ”

Jiu Cake's eyes lit up, "I'm going too!" Jojo, shall we go find a place to eat? I'm getting tired of eating dry food these days! ”

"Good!" Without waiting for Chu Mingyu to agree, Chu Qiao pulled the nine cakes out happily, Chu Mingyu had to helplessly look at the backs of Chu Qiao and the nine cakes and shook his head, "This kid is always disobedient!" ”

The Great Elder on the side laughed twice, "Young man, that's it." I see, Miss Chu Qiao is still worried about the safety of my young master, so she found a reason to find my young master. ”

"If that's the case, that's fine." Chu Mingyu also smiled.

"Speaking of which, this time the young master was able to get out of the customs smoothly, thanks to Miss Chu Qiao!" The Great Elder sighed, "Now there is no one in the Yun family who is not convinced by Miss Chu, in the future, she will definitely be able to help the young master of the Yun family!" ”

Hearing the Great Elder say this, Chu Mingyu felt a little unhappy somewhere in his heart. Look, when my daughter grows up, she is about to get married, and she is someone else's family!

The Great Elder of the Yun Family naturally wouldn't guess Chu Mingyu's thoughts, and he was still drawing a beautiful blueprint there, Chu Qiao and Jiu Cake had already left the Yun family's residence quickly.

"I know the direction of the town!" Jiu Cake Xianbao generally leaned his head in front of Chu Qiao, "Qiao Qiao, I heard that there is a restaurant in the ancient town that has very delicious food!" It's an ancestral restaurant, and the owner's grandfather was a royal chef from the previous dynasty! ”

"What do you know besides eating?" Chu Qiao glared at Jiu Cake, "Hurry up and tell me where the Jiang family's residence is!" ”

"Huh?!" Jiu Cake was stunned, "Qiaoqiao, aren't you?" As soon as you come, you have to go to the Jiang family's trouble?! Aren't we going to eat in the ancient town? ”

"Eat! Also eat! Chu Qiaoliu's eyebrows were raised, "When I think of the Jiang family, my stomach is full of anger, what else can I eat?!" I can't wait any longer! I'm looking for them! I didn't expect them to be delivered to the door! ”

"It's not...... Can we go to dinner first and then go to the trouble of the Jiang family? Jiu Bi looked at Chu Qiao aggrievedly.

"Then you go eat first!" Chu Qiao glanced at Jiu Cake angrily, "I know that you are unreliable!" ”

This sentence deeply hurt the fragile young man's heart of Jiu Cake, and he shook the bangs in front of his forehead and followed, "Who said I couldn't be trusted?" You can try it! Damn! Damn! ……”

Chu Qiao has a black line.

The two of them were scurrying around under the Forbidden Mountain, and Jiu Cake didn't know where the Jiang family's residence was, and they didn't dare to ask blatantly, they couldn't startle the snake, right? You can just get close to the stations, take a closer look, and then leave.

When Chu Qiao and Jiu Cake walked to a station, they were about to study and analyze, and a young woman came out of it unexpectedly.

The woman was wearing a tight-fitting robe, and her style was very old, at first glance, Chu Qiao thought that the woman was filming a costume TV series! Where do girls still wear that kind of clothes nowadays? However, it looks quite a bit ethnic.

The woman wore a lot of silver jewelry, a silver hairpin on her head, and two small bells on it, with the woman's movement, there was a crisp sound of "jingling", and the tight robe wrapped the bumpy figure, and the nine cakes on the side swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"Goo-toot!"

There was no one near this station, it was very quiet, and the sound of Jiu Cake swallowing saliva was particularly harsh.

Chu Qiao really wanted to slap this unlucky goods into the soil, and then stomp on two feet!

The woman really noticed the movement here, Chu Qiao simply didn't hide, and walked out of the grass generously and smiled at the woman.

"Who are you? How is it here? The woman spoke a little stiffly, tilted her head, looked at Chu Qiao, and then looked at the nine cakes behind Chu Qiao, "I haven't seen you." ”

Chu Qiao smiled dryly, "We...... Passing by! Some were hungry, so I wanted to see if there was anything to eat here. ”

She knew that this girl would definitely not let herself and Nine Cakes into their station, so she casually lied.

The woman really hesitated, looked at Chu Qiao, and then at Jiu Cake, "Are you really hungry?" ”

Jiu Cake nodded, touched his belly, and his stomach really cooperated with a "cooing" sound, and the girl's face immediately turned red when she heard it.

She lowered her head, as if she was a little afraid to look at the nine cakes, and muttered quietly, "Don't go into this fence, I'll go get you some food." ”

With that, the girl turned and walked towards the station.

Speaking of this station, it was quite simple, there was no tent, and there was no such extravagance as the local tyrant Yun family, so they simply built a temporary board house, and just built a few shacks with a few pieces of wood and some linoleum, so Chu Qiao and Jiu Cake looked at it for a long time, and they didn't understand whether this station was the station of the sectarian family.

However, there was also a very rough fence around the outside of these shacks, and Chu Qiao wondered in his heart, is such a simple fence to prevent people or beasts?

Obviously, it is impossible to prevent people, and people step in as soon as they raise their legs. To talk about the prevention of wild beasts...... It would be weird if this fence could keep the beasts at bay!

However, the little girl kindly went to get them food, and they didn't turn around and left, which showed that they really had ulterior motives, so the two of them waited honestly in place.

At this time, a hare suddenly burst out of the grass, and Jiu Bi wanted to catch the hare, but who knew that the little guy was too excited, and an arrow rushed towards the fence, and in the blink of an eye, it got through the crack in the fence.

Lo and behold, that's how the fence works against beasts......

However, what Chu Qiao didn't expect was that the lively hare had just gotten into the fence, and suddenly rolled around, with its belly facing up, its limbs twitching, and in less than two seconds, it didn't move!

"Huh! That hare is dead? Or play dead?! Jiu Pian also kept looking at the hare, and exclaimed in surprise, "I'll take a look!" ”

He was just about to step into the fence when he was pulled by Chu Qiao, "Don't move!" ”

"What's wrong?" Jiu Pian looked at Chu Qiao strangely, "I'll see if the hare is dead, if it pretends to be dead, I'll just catch it and bake it." ”

"Believe it or not, if you step into this fence, you'll be like the rabbit!" Chu Qiao glared at the nine cakes, "It seems that the fence is not an ornament!" ”

The girl walked out with two yellow buns in her hands, and at a glance she saw a hare lying straight on the ground, first startled, then sighed, and said to herself, "You don't go in the woods, why did you break into here?" ”

"Let's go!" The girl handed the bun in her hand to Chu Qiao, and after her eyes just touched Jiu Cake's impeccable face, she quickly moved away, and a blush appeared on her face again, "Hurry up and go, it won't be good for my father and them to come back later." ”

Jiu Bi didn't notice anything unusual about the girl, and asked, "Hey, what's the matter with that hare?" Just run in and die! ”

The girl's face was a little uncomfortable, "Don't ask, let's go." Don't come here in the future, it will hurt you. ”

"You are...... Gu Sect?! Chu Qiao asked suddenly.

The girl was stunned for a moment, and looked at Chu Qiao in surprise, "How do you know?" ”

Chu Qiao looked like this, "This fence is poisonous, right?" Even if you don't touch it, if you get a little breath, you will be killed instantly! Apart from the Gu Sect, what sect has such powerful means? ”

"Then why don't you go quickly?!" The girl took two steps back vigilantly, "Don't come here, it's not just the fence that's poisonous, it's everything poisonous!" ”

"Little girl, we have no ill will, don't be afraid." Chu Qiao looked at the two yellow and clear buns in the little girl's hand that had not yet been delivered to him, and the disgust in his heart also disappeared a little.

The girl shook her head, "Daddy said that people outside are all bad people, let me not trust anyone!" Let's go! When my father and uncles come back, you won't be able to leave! ”

Chu Qiao nodded, "No matter what, thank you so much!" By the way, what's your name? ”

The girl kept her mouth tightly closed, refusing to speak again.

Chu Qiao and Jiu Cake shook their heads in disappointment, turned around and walked a few steps, and suddenly a girl's timid voice came from behind them, "My name is Yan Xiuxiu." ”

"My name is Chu Qiao." Chu Qiao turned his head and showed a bright smile towards the girl, "His name is Jiu Cake." Xiuxiu, I hope we can become friends in the future. ”

Yan Xiuxiu's bright black eyes looked at Chu Qiao and Jiu Cake, and there was a hint of expectation in her eyes.

I'm afraid this girl rarely has contact with living people, right? Eager and afraid, but still with a hint of curiosity.

Long after the two left, Yan Xiuxiu was still standing in place and watching the direction Chu Qiao and Jiu Cake left in a daze.

They're so pretty...... Better than all the people in the stockade! I've never seen anyone so good-looking!

They all said I was the best-looking girl in the village, but compared to the sister just now, I was so ugly! Also, that person...... More beautiful than the god in my dreams, is he a god descending to earth?

The girl's heart, in fact, opened so inadvertently, the shadows of Jiu Cake and Chu Qiao have been deeply imprinted in her heart, she may not understand anything, but she still knows how to like beautiful things.

That liking is an instinct.

When Yan Xiuxiu was still in a daze, several men in fancy clothes walked out of the depths of the woods, and saw Yan Xiuxiu standing on the edge of the fence from a distance, looking outside.

"Xiuxiu! What are you doing? A tall man shouted, this sound made Yan Xiuxiu tremble, hurriedly turned around to look over, lowered his head timidly, and shouted in a low voice, "Daddy, you're back." ”

"Well, what were you just doing?" Knowing his daughter Mo Ruo's father, Yan Xiuxiu's father Yan Chong looked at his daughter, as if something was wrong, "Xiuxiu, was someone here just now?" ”

Yan Xiuxiu hurriedly waved her hand, "No!" I'm just homesick, Daddy, when are we going to get home? ”

Yan Chong smiled, "You kid, it's still early to go home!" Is the rice cooked? I am hungry! ”

A young man behind him wrung a few game in his hand and shouted happily, "Xiuxiu, hot a few pots of bar!" We've got something to eat tonight! ”

Yan Xiuxiu absentmindedly took the game in the young man's hand, and silently turned around to clean it up, which made the smile on the young man's face stiffen, and looked at Yan Xiuxiu's back and said to Yan Chong with some puzzlement, "Uncle Yan Chong, what's wrong with Xiuxiu?" Not happy? ”

"Isn't it homesickness? It's no wonder that Xiuxiu, the kid, has never left the village, and he must not be used to coming out for so long this time. Yan Chong didn't care and greeted the people who followed behind, "Go!" Drink and go! ”

Yan Xiuxiu returned to her shack, just about to pick up the pheasant, her body suddenly stiffened, she dropped the pheasant in her hand, covered her mouth, seemed to vomit, but endured, looked around, and rushed towards the corner of the shack, where there was a small ceramic jar, the mouth of the jar was sealed by dry mud.

"Smack!" Yan Xiuxiu slapped the mouth of the sealed jar open, and her mouth made a vomiting sound towards the jar, and a golden mass mixed with her gastric juice was spit into the jar.

Then, there was a rustling sound in the jar, and Yan Xiuxiu closed her eyes with a pained expression, and did not look at the jar.

After a while, Yan Xiuxiu reached into the jar again, took something out of the jar, and swallowed it in one gulp.

There was an impatient urging voice from outside, "Xiuxiu, why haven't you lit a fire yet?" Hurry up! ”

Yan Xiuxiu had no choice but to answer, then got up and continued to clean up the pheasant.

After leaving the Gu Sect's station, Jiu Cake touched his nose, "It seems that the Gu Sect is really difficult to deal with, use poison!" Fortunately, I didn't eat what she gave me just now, otherwise I would have been poisoned, and I don't know how I died! ”

"That steamed bun is definitely not poisonous." Chu Qiao smiled, "That girl is quite simple. ”

"I can't tell!" Jiu Bi waved his hand exaggeratedly, "You didn't see her weird?" ”

"That's it! Hurry up and find me the Jiang family's residence! Chu Qiao grinded his teeth, "I must make the Jiang family turn over tonight!" ”
