Chapter 200: The Watchman
All the rooms, including the firewood room, Yun Yao and Kyaukxing had searched together, and if there were people living here, it would be impossible to see them. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info and they are now in the garden, but the voice is so close, still around.
Where did the sound come from? Yun Yao and Kyaukxing were back to back, staring at every corner in front of them.
After a while, there were more moaning sounds, like the sounds of people with asthma.
"Who? Who is it? Come out! Kyaukstar shouted.
I saw a small stone rolling down from the rockery next to it and falling to the ground with a clatter. Yun Yao and Kyaukxing still maintained their current posture, vigilantly moving towards the rockery, and suddenly a little white cat came out of the rockery, scaring Kyaukxing. Yun Yao was also scared out of some white hair. Fortunately, there was no danger, and when the white cat made a fuss, he forgot that someone was talking just now.
Yun Yao walked back with Jiaoxing in her arms, and suddenly Jiaoxing stood still in place, Yun Yao also felt that the situation was wrong, and slowly turned her head, only to see that Jiaoxing's shoulder was hooked by a crutch, and then looked along the crutches, I don't know where a white-haired old man came out, skinny, with two edematous eyes full of red bloodshots, looking at them with a leaning body.
"Hello!" Yun Yao reluctantly said hello, saying that people are scary and scared to death, if it weren't for the fact that she had experienced enough and exciting, she would really be scared to death by this old man. Yun Yao squeezed out some smirks and gently pushed away the crutches, and Jiaoxing hurriedly ran behind Yun Yao and poked his head out to look this way.
"You are?" Jiaoxing felt that he was so familiar, and couldn't help but walk out from behind Yun Yao, pointing at the old man and asking.
"It doesn't matter who I am!" The old man's hoarse and weak voice seemed to come from hell, and it was particularly uncomfortable to stop and look at it, and it was a little depressing. "Who you are matters!" The old man went on to gasp again.
Kyaukstar looked around him, with the same white hair as himself, he should be of the same clan, right? Kyaukstar asked, "Are you also from the Human-Bird Clan?" ”
"How do you know? If you have the same hair as you, will it be a breed? The old man pouted, disapproving.
"Phew! What breed? Can you speak? The human bird clan is an immortal clan, you are obviously from the human bird clan, you can't fool me. The white hair of our human bird clan is innate, and there must be a silver hair in every ninety-nine white hairs, so it looks particularly shiny, and the hair of our human bird clan will never be knotted, just like the feathers of birds, smooth and soft. ”
"Ninety-nine! Have you counted? The old man fought back disdainfully.
Yun Yao looked at the old man, although he was very thin and sick, he felt that he was not very old, and he did not look like an old man. And the way he speaks, it's really a bit like a bright star. I couldn't help but ask, "Are you really from the Human-Bird Clan?" ”
"Ah, I am!" The old man replied crisply, not at all like a joke.
Kyaukxing stared at him, thinking in his heart, that day when he returned to the clan, he saw that the clansmen had been killed, and his parents were missing, and he had been looking for a long time but could not find them, so he had to bury them all and go down the mountain to find them. So he counted that there was indeed one less person besides his parents at that time. On weekdays, everyone will not go out of the mountain easily, even if they go out of the mountain by themselves, they will secretly run out. So he shouldn't have left out a single person, at that time, Kyaukxing thought that he had fled somewhere, or died in the corner, and he didn't see it, because he was worried about finding his father and mother, and he didn't think much about it, so naturally he didn't take it seriously. Now that this person has appeared in front of him, he is still alive and well, and the mystery in Jiaoxing's heart is like a swarm of ants, making him upset.
"Who are you?" The old man asked.
"Bright Star!" Kyaukstar didn't hide it.
"Are you Childe?" The old man's eyes widened, looking up and down at Kyaukxing, and suddenly his mouth trembled, everyone thought he was going to cry, but who knew that the old man suddenly sneezed, and sprayed Kyaukxing's face.
"You! You ......" Kyaukstar wiped the saliva beads on his face in anger, "how long has it been since you brushed your teeth, it stinks to death!" Kyaukstar complained. Pouted in disgust.
The old man laughed, and he was excited to hold the hand of the bright star, and before he could say anything, he began to cry. But don't look at him so thin, like a little old man of eighty or ninety years old, his hands are so strong that Jiaoxing wanted to withdraw his hand, but he didn't pull it back.
Yun Yao couldn't help but cover her nose and smile, the fellow saw the fellow countryman, and his eyes were full of tears? It's really a true portrayal of that song. It's no wonder that the old man is so excited, the whole clan is dead, I thought I was left with myself, but I didn't expect to see my son-in-law, it's strange if I wasn't excited.
Yun Yao handed him a silk handkerchief, and the old man was willing to let go of the bright star, and then opened the trap stone of the rockery and led them into the basement.
"You're going to live here?" Kyaukstar asked hurriedly. It was very simple, as if it had been dug by itself, with irregular walls and traces of shovels, and only a wooden bed, a table, and chairs creaking one by one in the small space.
"It's a blessing to survive! And why care about a place to live? The old man motioned for Yun Yao and Jiaoxing to sit at will, and chose the chair that would fall apart at any time.
"I'm Kyaukyu! Can you tell us about that year? Yun Yao called Jiaoxing to sit down, she wanted to know what kind of crime the Human Bird Clan had committed and would be destroyed by this disaster, and she also wanted to know what she saw in the Heart Demon Realm. Obviously, the only person who survived, must know something.
The old man was not surprised by Yun Yao's identity at all, on the contrary, a trace of hatred flashed in his eyes, this expression was fleeting, Yun Yao thought it was an illusion caused by the candle flame, so he didn't go to his heart.
"I don't know exactly why the village will be slaughtered. That day I was on duty, I received news from other birds, saying that the Nine Heavens Emperor came to destroy the village, so he quickly reported to the patriarch, the patriarch handed me a letter telling me to come to Tai'an Mountain to find the Taoist chief to help, because the situation was urgent, I used all the spiritual power and exercises in the body, and when I arrived at the Taoist temple, I was already tired, and the Taoist ordered me to rest under this rockery, so that after they left, if there was an accident, I could save my life. So I waited here until today, and I thought it was Master Dao who had returned. I didn't expect it to be you. Fortunately, Childe is safe and sound, and I believe that the dead souls should also rest in peace. ”
The old man avoided Yun Yao, thinking that he was not a member of the Human Bird Clan, and Yun Yao knew his identity, but he was excluded by him, and he was still a little uncomfortable in his heart, but fortunately, Jiaoxing didn't hear the inappropriateness in this. Yun Yao could feel that the old man didn't like him, and he didn't know if the extermination of the human bird clan had anything to do with him. I had to stop and listen to what they had to say.
However, Kyaukstar did not mention the extermination of the clan, but asked about the Aquarius Treasure directly. I saw that the old man was staggering, and kept squinting at Yun Yao. (To be continued.) )
