Chapter VII

It was getting late, the rain was getting quieter, and in the distance came two people walking side by side, both holding an umbrella. One of them had an extremely handsome face, but also a pair of large, bright cat eyes, which made him look inexplicably naïve. The other person was dressed in a blue shirt, with a tall and graceful posture, and a handsome face that was enough to move any girl.

"Is there a temple up ahead?" The man with cat's eyes looked up and said to the people around him.

"I saw it too, I think we'd better go rest for the night before leaving."

Neither of them had any opinion on this tip, and quickened their pace towards the small ruined temple. There was still a fire in the temple that had been extinguished, and it was clear that someone had been here not long ago. Hu Tiehua found a place to sit down at random, and stretched out her legs comfortably to call another man in blue: "Old bedbug, hurry up and light the fire, uncle needs to keep warm." ”

Seeing him look so comfortable, Chu Liuxiang shook his head helplessly: "You old Hu ......" but he still stepped aside and quickly did as he was told.

Hu Tiehua crossed her legs and put her hands behind her back, and said with a sigh: "On such a rainy day, if there is another pot of wine, it will be even more perfect." ”

Chu Liuxiang heard this sentence as soon as he lit the fire, and couldn't help but smile: "So with Hu Daxia's temperament, shouldn't it be better to have two beautiful girls to accompany you?" ”

Hu Tiehua glanced at him and teased, "Beautiful girls don't like me, when they see you, where can they see me, Lao Hu." ”

was teased by a friend, Chu Liuxiang touched his nose, "There are not many girls around Hu Daxia." ”

"But those girls always prefer you like you, and did you spend last night with some beautiful peasant girl*?" Hu Tiehua glanced at him and continued to tease his long-time friend.

Chu Liuxiang really can't do anything about this old friend, he has to keep making fun of himself as soon as they meet. "Where did a girl come from in a place like this?" He sighed and said, "But it would be wonderful to have a beautiful girl with you on a night like this." ”

Hu Tiehua also sighed: "Yes, girls are really the cutest little creatures in the world, but maybe we will really meet a beautiful fox demon here." ”

Speaking of the fox demon, Chu Liuxiang somehow suddenly remembered the mysterious and beautiful young man he met in the mountains and forests the night before. At that time, he really thought that the other party was a goblin, and he didn't know if he would have the honor to meet again in the future.

Just when he was feeling sorry in his heart, Hu Tiehua suddenly pricked up his ears, "Old bedbug, did you hear any sound?" ”

Seeing that Hu Tiehua was alert, Chu Liuxiang smiled playfully: "What's the matter, Hu Daxia heard the voice of the fox demon?" As soon as he finished saying this, a faint cough really sounded in the corner, so faint that if it weren't for their deep internal strength, they wouldn't have heard it at all.

"It looks like there's really someone." Chu Liuxiang frowned slightly, when she saw the fire, she thought that the person had already left, could it be that someone was hidden?

They looked at each other tacitly, then began to hold their breath to determine the source of the sound, and soon found a pile of straw in the corner.

Although the haystack looked like it had been piled up there naturally, the two of them were pretty sure that someone was hidden inside.

"Maybe it's going to be a nuisance again." Hu Tiehua said teasingly when she leaned over and turned over the straw, "Why do you always encounter such and such strange things?" ”

"Let's save people."

The two men moved to remove the thick straw piles one by one, and—

Hu Tiehua's originally big cat's eyes instantly opened wider, and he looked at it for a long time before he whispered to himself in disbelief: "What did I just say, there is really a little fox demon ......"

Chu Liuxiang's stunned was no less than his, but he was not surprised by the beauty of this young man, but because of the cute little mountain spirit he was thinking about just now.

Ye Changsheng felt in a daze that someone seemed to be watching him, but he was so sick that he couldn't open his eyes at all, so he could only snort weakly, which woke up the two people who were still in a daze.

"This kid has a cold." Hu Tiehua knew a little about medical skills, and then immediately took off the robe on his body and draped it on the person who was trembling because the straw was pulled away by them, and he was speechless: "Such a good-looking child, who is willing to throw it here like this?" ”

Chu Liuxiang stretched out his hand and touched his forehead, his heart was not good, this temperature was no longer an ordinary high fever, and if he continued like this, he would definitely die. He bent over and hugged the person in his arms, turned his head and said to Hu Tiehua: "Old Hu, you help me with an umbrella, and we will send him down the mountain to see the doctor." ”

The two of them didn't dare to stay for a moment, and braved the night when it was still drizzling and prepared to go down the mountain to find Lang Zhong overnight.

Chu Liuxiang's footsteps were very fast, and the two of them almost only took an hour to reach the foot of the mountain, and they were quite familiar with this area, so they found an inn they had been to before.

The proprietress is a beautiful and plump woman who is nearly thirty years old, named Sanniang. She had died a few years ago and had been running the little inn on her own. The weather has not been good lately, and there are a lot fewer caravans and pedestrians than usual, so business is also miserable. Who knew that in the middle of the night, there were still a few guests, and they were also guests who had some fate with her.

She was wearing a water-green skirt and leaned against the door to look at the two people who came over, with a bright smile on her face: "It turned out to be Xiang Shuai, why did you come to me in the middle of the night." ”

Chu Liuxiang smiled slightly: "Lao Hu and I came to stay and asked the proprietress to do me a favor." ”

Sanniang smiled when she heard this: "Xiangshuai came to live here for as long as you want, the last time I came, I was very happy, I have been thinking about it for a long time." The corners of her eyes crossed Chu Liuxiang's body ambiguously, and everyone understood the meaning.

Chu Liuxiang coughed lightly, "The boss lady should take me to the room, I need you to help me see someone." He was holding a person in his arms, and he was covered by Hu Tiehua's robe from head to foot, and he couldn't see his face at all. Sanniang smiled and joked as she turned around and took them upstairs: "Could it be that Xiangshuai brought another beauty this time, the bag is so tight, you can't even see it." ”

Hu Tiehua finally found an opportunity to interject at this time: "No, the old bedbug's luck has always been very good." ”

was teased by the two of them singing and harmonizing like this, Chu Liuxiang was helpless or helpless, and followed Sanniang all the way into a bedroom on the second floor.

"Put people on bed." Sanniang sat at the table in the bedroom, casually pointed to the bed inside, and reached out to pour herself a cup of tea.

When Chu Liuxiang heard this, he hurriedly put the person on it carefully, and then said, "Sanniang, please take a look." ”

Sanniang rolled her eyes, "What, don't you call me boss lady now?" ”

Chu Liuxiang smiled bitterly: "Sanniang, don't taunt me anymore, it's important to save people." ”

Seeing that he was soft, Sanniang stood up lazily and walked to the bedside, "I want to see how ...... person who can make Xiang Shuai so precious."

"Yo!" Sanniang's eyes lit up when she saw the person asleep on the bed, and she stepped forward in a few steps to squeeze away Hu Tiehua, who was originally sitting, "Where did you find such a beautiful child!" I'm Li Sanniang, I'm old, and I've never seen a doll with such a sign, it's a boy, right? ”

Hu Tiehua saw that she was pinching and kneading her hands lightly or heavily, and couldn't help but remind: "You can start lightly, I don't think this child is sick." ”

"I know, I know, as soon as I touch this kid, I know it's very empty." Sanniang sighed while touching, "What a good boy, so beautiful...... It's my son. ”

When Chu Liuxiang was waiting a little anxiously, Sanniang finally let go of the person, but her expression was not very good-looking: "Xiangshuai, you tell me honestly, where did you steal this child from?" ”

Hu Tiehua couldn't hold back, and laughed: "Sanniang, it's so good that you can use the word 'steal', the old bedbug will use stealing when he meets a beauty." ”

Chu Liuxiang replied righteously: "Sanniang, you have wronged me, I just met him in the temple and brought him over to see the doctor." ”

Knowing that Chu Liuxiang never lied, Sanniang didn't doubt him anymore, but said with a solemn expression: "This kid is not good." ”

"His body is too weak, his whole body has long been empty, but he just looks good on his face. However, it can also be seen that he has been carefully pampered for many years, and he has used a lot of extremely expensive medicinal materials and medicinal jade to hang his life, otherwise if it is a slightly more ordinary person, he is afraid that he will die eight hundred years earlier. But even so, I concluded that I didn't have a few years to live. ”

Chu Liuxiang frowned when she heard this, "Is it so bad?" ”

Sanniang nodded, "To be honest, I'm not sure I can save people back." This child's foundation is too weak, and the wind and cold are menacing, and the best time to seek medical treatment is delayed. At the moment, if I use a little strong medicine, I can kill him immediately, but if I just use ordinary medicine, I am afraid it will not have any effect. ”

Hu Tiehua stepped forward to look at Ye Changsheng, who was lying on the bed and was already colorless, and sighed sadly: "What a good child, why is he so thin?" ”

Chu Liuxiang thought for a while, and said sincerely: "Sanniang, please help, I had a relationship with him, and he also helped me." ”

Sanniang nodded and sighed: "Xiangshuai, even if you don't ask me, I will try my best to help, I don't want such a clear child to die in such a desolate place at such a young age, you let me think of a way." ”

"I'm tired." Chu Liuxiang nodded.

Several people on the inn were trying to think of a way to save Ye Changsheng's life, and Tianjia finally grabbed a Langzhong and returned to the broken temple after running desperately for a day, but what they saw was an empty haystack.

Tianjia stared at the straw that was turned upside down, and he didn't know if the medicine bag in his hand fell to the ground, and Lang Zhong behind him didn't see his terrible expression.

Who is the person who took his little master?
