Chapter 143: The Midnight Intruder
After listening to Qiu Li's earnest explanation, a few pensive looks flashed on the terrifying face, and she said, "Since this is the case, the teacher will not force you." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Qiu Li, who was already ready to spend another bit of speech, was very unexpected, the master in front of her, she is the most understood, with quirks, changeable temperament, and the most stubborn, in the past few years, Qiu Li pitied her for an old man who had an accident, and he was not thin on himself, so he respected her as a parent, and he respected her like a parent, and in general, he could rely on her and avoid making her unhappy.
So the way the two have been getting along for a long time is what Yaowang's mother-in-law says, Qiuli listens to something, once there is an objection, Yaowang's mother-in-law will be extremely angry to suppress her opinions or ideas, and she must listen to her own, when she is so good to talk today, it is really never before.
Afraid that the master would change his mind again, Qiu Li hurriedly helped the mother-in-law of the medicine king to go back to rest, saying that he would arrange a few people to rest, and then it was over.
Bai Xiaoman and Qingyang Xiaocen also had a lucky fifty-two expression, and when they went out, Qingyang Xiaocen quietly asked Qiuli: "Can we leave for Nanfeng tomorrow?" ”
Qiu Li nodded lightly and said: "Seeing what the master means tonight, it should be done, I will beg her tomorrow, if it doesn't work, I can take you there secretly, don't worry, I will help you to the end since I take you up the mountain." ”
Qingyang Xiaocen showed a worried look on her face: "If you go against Master's will and secretly help us, in case she knows about it, we will be ashamed." ”
Qiu Xiang didn't want to say more, and waved her hand: "Rest as soon as possible, I have only been to Nanfeng once, and the road is very difficult to walk, so let's recuperate." ”
"Autumn ......"
Before Bai Xiaoman finished speaking, he saw her raise her hand and look at her calmly: "Needless to say, I'll call you early tomorrow morning." ”
Bai Xiaoman watched Qiu Li leave, turned his head to Qingyang Xiao Cen and said, "It seems that Qiu Li is a cold-faced and hot-hearted person, was she such a personality when she was a child?" ”
Qingyang Xiaocen thought about it for a while and replied: "When I was a child, it was a little, it wasn't so serious, since the relationship with Zifei was stiff, she became more and more difficult to get along with, and the two of them haven't seen her since they left, so at first glance, I feel uncomfortable, and the character in a person's bones is still difficult to change, although her personality is a little difficult to approach, but her nature is still kind." ”
Bai Xiaoman nodded in agreement: "Well, she is really willing to help us with her heart." However, I can't figure out that medicine king's mother-in-law, her attitude was so tough a moment ago, why did she suddenly make sense? ”
Qingyang Xiaocen smiled and touched her head: "It's not good for her to be too reluctant in the matter between men and women, after all, Qiu Li is her only disciple, and she seems to love her very much, so she shouldn't be too embarrassed for her." ”
Seeing that Bai Xiaoman was still suspicious, he smiled and said, "Hurry up and sleep, I'm tired today, and I have to hurry tomorrow, so I have to save up my strength." ”
Bai Xiaoman didn't say anything, but she always recalled the weird smile of the Medicine King's mother-in-law just now, of course, her face was too terrifying, so she looked particularly crazy when she made any expression, but Bai Xiaoman judged by her sixth sense, she shouldn't be the one who gave up so easily.
At night, Bai Xiaoman always can't sleep well, the night on the mountain is much colder than the mountain, the medicine king's mother-in-law and Qiu Li live alone all the year round, and there are no guests to visit, so they don't prepare a guest room, and now the room they live in is Qiu Li vacated his own room, and added a large wooden board that is usually used for drying medicine outside, barely used as a bed, and Muller and Fang Jingzhuo made do with sleeping on it.
There weren't enough quilts, Qiu Li took out her and Yao Wangpo's cloaks, Qingyang Xiaocen didn't answer, because Qiu Li had already given them all the bedding she used on weekdays, and she didn't know what to use, and then she accepted these cloaks, what should she do at night, seeing that he refused to accept it, Qiu Li didn't grind, turned around and hugged and left.
Fortunately, Fang Jingzhuo was well prepared, guessing that it would be very cold on the mountain, so he brought a cloak for each of them, which was barely enough.
Although the body is covered relatively thickly, the air exposed by the exposed face is very cold, lying down for a while, taking a few breaths, Bai Xiaoman feels that the tip of her nose is going to freeze, plus she has a lot of things in her heart, she can't sleep, she turns over a few times, and the next second, she is hugged by Qingyang Xiaocen into her arms, and the breath brought out between the words is lightly sprayed on the neck, a little itchy, Bai Xiaoman shook his head slightly.
"Haven't slept yet?"
Bai Xiaoman whispered: "Well, I can't sleep, did I disturb you?" ”
Qingyang Xiaocen leaned his head closer, rubbed her neck socket as usual, sniffed her breath greedily, his voice was a little hoarse, and the fatigue after the exhaustion of the boat and car, listening to it in his ears, Bai Xiaoman was a little distressed, and he was more reluctant to go: "It's all me, and you're tired." ”
Qingyang Xiaocen hugged her tightly and stuffed her deeper into her arms: "If you feel ashamed of me in the future, and don't be angry with me in the future, I will be grateful." ”
Bai Xiaoman curled up his elbow and slammed it back slightly, hitting Qingyang Xiaocen's ribs, he smiled lightly, Bai Xiaoman straightened his waist and moved closer to his arms: "Okay, if you make me angry again in the future, I will spare you a lot, and try not to be like you." ”
Qingyang Xiaocen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, come, pillow my arm, I'll sleep with you in my arms." ”
Bai Xiaoman turned around, the two faced each other, nestled in his arms, and closed his eyes with peace of mind.
In the middle of the night, Bai Xiaoman seemed to have a dream, and the python he met during the day appeared in front of him again, spitting out letters at her, Bai Xiaoman was so frightened that he was dripping in a cold sweat, and wanted to jump up, but his legs seemed to be sticky, and he couldn't jump up, and he wanted to shout Qingyang Xiaocen's name, but he found that his throat seemed to be choked, and he couldn't make a sound.
Seeing that the python was getting closer and closer to him, Bai Xiaoman was so anxious that he couldn't do it, and when he looked down, he didn't know when his feet were entangled in black vines, and he couldn't move even half a minute of his strength.
The python rushed violently, and it was about to bite her, Bai Xiaoman finally gathered enough strength, broke free with all his strength, and at the moment when the python rushed to his eyes, he raised his hand and pushed it out with a palm.
The moment he blocked the python, Bai Xiaoman also opened his eyes all of a sudden, and there was a soft hum of Qingyang Xiaocen in his ears, and by the moonlight in the mountains, Bai Xiaoman saw Qingyang Xiaocen covering his nose and snorting, and there was a burst of pain in the palm of his hand.
She hurried over and was about to apologize, when Qingyang Xiaocen covered her mouth and made a booing motion.
Bai Xiaoman followed the direction of Qingyang Xiaocen's finger and looked out the window, a vague black figure appeared, and then a small voice sounded, and the hairs on Bai Xiaoman and Qingyang Xiaocen's bodies stood up.
They are not in the inn now, is there still a thief on the moon and the wind on the dangerous mountain, who is so dedicated to rob their belongings?
Thinking about it, Bai Xiaoman heard a few 'tuk' sounds of wooden sticks hitting the ground, his brain turned, and he suddenly thought of something, and looked at Qingyang Xiaocen with wide eyes, and he obviously guessed it a long time ago, and his face was full of shock.
Bai Xiaoman asked in a secret voice: "What should I do?" ”
Qingyang Xiaocen replied with a secret voice: "Wait and see what happens." ”
Then he picked up the jade pendant on his waist very slowly, I don't know where to screw it, the jade pendant was divided into two, Qingyang Xiaocen stuffed half of it into Bai Xiaoman's mouth, signaling her to hold it, although there were doubts, but Bai Xiaoman still obediently opened his mouth to hold the jade pendant, Qingyang Xiaocen stuffed the other half into his mouth, and then there was no movement.
Bai Xiaoman sniffed a little harder, and smelled a strange smell, Qingyang Xiaocen also smelled it, neither of them made any movement, and after a while, the door was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and the medicine king's mother-in-law walked in slowly and leisurely with a cane, until the two of them were in front of the bed, staring at them condescendingly.
Bai Xiaoman's heart was beating like a drum, although her eyes were closed, she could clearly feel the gaze of the Medicine King's mother-in-law, it felt like a blue-faced and fanged monster staring at the food in her mouth, and she couldn't help but feel nervous and tense.
With a wave of her hand, another strange fragrance came, Bai Xiaoman was stimulated by this smell and his nose was itchy, and he endured it and endured it, just when he couldn't help but sneeze, Qingyang Xiaocen didn't hold back one step earlier and sneezed.
Bai Xiaoman then also sneezed, and the two of them sat up quickly, it was not only them who were frightened, but the mother-in-law of the medicine king obviously didn't expect the two of them to be awake, so she sat up again, took half a step back, fortunately stared at the ground with a cane, so she didn't fall, looked at them with a shocked face, and asked hoarsely: "Impossible, how can you two still be awake?" ”
Seeing that he couldn't hide it, Qingyang Xiaocen lifted the quilt, Bai Xiaoman also got up with him, Qingyang Xiaocen first put the cloak on Bai Xiaoman, and then put on one himself, and turned to face the mother-in-law of the medicine king.
took out the jade pendant in his mouth, put it in the palm of his hand, and asked loudly: "Senior, I don't know what to do when I visit late at night?" ”
Only then did Bai Xiaoman react, and there was no sound from Mueller and Fang Jingzhuo outside? Fang Jingzhuo even if he counted, with Mueller's martial arts cultivation, not to mention a person like Granny Medicine King, who is inconvenient to move, even if a master is approaching, he will find out early in the morning, and it is impossible to let Granny Medicine King swagger into the room and not say anything at all.
There is only one possibility, and that is that something happened to Mueller and Fang Jingzhuo.
Thinking of this, Bai Xiaoman didn't care about the mother-in-law of the medicine king, rushed to the table, lit the tree oil lamp, and the smell of grease on the tree wafted over, and the room gradually brightened.
Bai Xiaoman asked unceremoniously: "What did the seniors do to our two friends?" ”
The Medicine King's mother-in-law was still immersed in shock and did not answer her words.
Bai Xiaoman couldn't wait for her answer, rushed out, lit the lamp outside, and saw Muller and Fang Jingzhuo lying on the makeshift wooden bed, motionless, Bai Xiaoman's heart sank, and he didn't dare to step forward to check if they were still alive for a while.
Just as she was about to take a step, Qiu Li walked in from outside, took a look at the situation in the house, and then said to her, "Don't be afraid, they're just unconscious." ”
Only then did Bai Xiaoman bend down and lean down, put his hand under the tips of Mu Le and Fang Jingzhuo's noses, and felt their breath, and finally put his mind at ease.
Stand up straight and ask Qiuli, "What the hell is going on?" ”
Qiu Li glanced inside, raised his leg and was about to go inside, Bai Xiaoman saw that Qiu Li was only wearing a single dress, guessing that she might be in a hurry to eat, he felt a little unbearable, so he took off the cloak on his body casually and shouted to her: "Wait a minute, put it on." ”
Qiu Li tugged at the corners of his mouth and waved his hand: "No need, I live here all year round and have adapted to the climate." ”
Seeing that Bai Xiaoman was still holding the cloak in his hand, but he didn't put it on himself, a trace of warmth flashed in his eyes, and he urged: "Hurry up and put it on, if you are sick, where will you get the spirit to find a saliva stone?" ”
Bai Xiaoman put on his cloak again, and Qiu Li had already walked in, his voice was cold: "Master, why are you doing this?" Is it because I was once married, so my body can be ruined at will? ”
The Medicine King's mother-in-law turned around tremblingly and asked in disbelief, "Qiu Li, what are you talking about?" Everything you do for the teacher is for your good! ”
Qiu Li sneered, and threw it away, and a white jade bottle fell down in response, rolling on the ground several times before stopping.
The medicine king's mother-in-law seemed to be a little at a loss, her nerves twitched, her scars were all gathered together, and her whole face looked like a dry and cracked earth, which looked disgusting and scary.
"For the teacher to understand you, you are cold-faced and soft-hearted, and you definitely can't bear to destroy the husband and wife, but you always think about others, who thinks about you? Don't worry, as long as you act as husband and wife tonight, I will naturally have a way to make them forget each other, and there will be no more troubles in the future. ”
Qiu Li closed his eyes sullenly, and when he opened them again, there were tears in his eyes.
"Master, I've made it clear enough, why don't you just want to listen to me? When can you stop living in your own world all the time? I am also a person, I have my own thoughts and feelings, I don't like Qingyang Xiaocen, he is in my heart, just a young brother, who has loved me and cared for me, and besides, there is nothing else, and now, I just want to help him save his wife, the person I love the most, has not treated me so sincerely, so I admire Qingyang Xiaocen, and I envy his wife to have such blessings. But this kind of blessing is not a thing, you can take it back and forth, Master, you think that Qingyang Xiaocen values love and righteousness, and it is a good destination for me, but his affection is for his wife, and if he changes me, it may not be the same result, Master! ”
Yaowang's mother-in-law still stiffened her neck to defend: "He is kind by nature, he will not treat people badly, and he will not look at the wrong person as a teacher, as long as you are obedient and follow him, you will have a long life in the future!" ”
Bai Xiaoman and Qingyang Xiaocen looked at each other, not knowing what the master and apprentice were making trouble about, so they had to press it and keep quiet.
Qiu Li lowered his head and knelt down on his knees with a grunt, the mother-in-law of the medicine king trembled when she heard this, her body involuntarily stepped back a little, and she couldn't bear to say: "Qiu Li, your knees have always been stubborn, hurry up, don't hurt your body."
