Chapter 88: The Old Man Becomes a Black Bear?
After a while, she cleared her throat and said word by word: "You just ask people so abruptly, is there a monster there? If it were me, I wouldn't pay attention to you, and those who don't know will only think that your brain is broken......"
"This, this ......" Xiaohu Ge thought about it carefully, "it is indeed a bit abrupt. Okay, little sister, take the steamed buns, let's eat while walking. ”
Scarlet nodded heavily, stuffed the steamed bun into the small cloth bag, and followed Xiaohuge out of the door.
Soon after the two of them had gone, the brute leaned out of the door, and after making sure that they were nowhere to be seen, he returned to the counter and whispered in the man's ear last night.
The man's expression tightened, and after a few brief words of explanation to him, he entered the back room next to the counter.
Ten miles away, not long to say short. The two stood in a clearing ten miles away from the town, looking at each other.
"Are you sure, that monster haunts this place?" Scarlet asked, with wide eyes, "Isn't this place empty?"
Unlike Scarlet's surprise, Xiaohuge squatted down and surveyed the ground intently.
After checking several places, he stood up, "There is indeed no trace of demons here, let's go ahead and see." ”
After walking for a while, an old man carrying firewood came to him.
The old man was tall and energetic, obviously carrying a load full of firewood, but his face did not change and he did not panting.
Xiao Huge instantly became suspicious.
As soon as the old man approached, he stretched out his hand to block his way and said, "Old man, this firewood doesn't seem to be light, do you need help?"
As soon as he heard that his senior brother was going to be a good person at this time, Feini hurriedly jumped over in three or two steps, dragged him to the side, and whispered: "Senior brother, it's good for people to carry firewood, why are you going to join in the fun? Have you forgotten what we are here for?"
Xiaohu Ge smiled: "Hehe...... Don't worry, junior brother, senior brother has his own opinions. ”
After that, he returned to the old man's side, and opened his hand to fetch the wooden burden on his shoulder.
The old man was also calm, and without hesitation, he gave him the burden, and said vigorously: "Good man, you are a good man! The old man has lived in this world for decades, and it is the first time he has met a good person!"
The first time I encountered it, Scarlet couldn't help but slander, isn't that always being bullied by bad people in this life?
"Dare to ask the old man, where do you live?" Xiaohuge asked, carrying the burden.
The old man stretched out his hand and pointed ahead, "It's not far, it's not far, out of this place, just walk two miles forward." ”
The old man led the way in front, and Xiaohuge and Scarlet followed behind.
But after a while, Scarlet suddenly pointed to the figure that flashed in front of her and shouted, "Look, what is that?"
Xiaohuge was startled, hurriedly put down the firewood burden, and asked with a backface: "Little junior sister, what's wrong?"
"Just then, I saw something flash in front of me. It's a pity that it's too fast to see what it is!"
Xiaohu Gehu looked suspiciously in the direction of Crimson's fingers, and unconsciously clenched his fists.
At this time, the old man slipped his black eyes and said with a smile: "Two, the old man is at the forefront, but he doesn't see anything." Could it be that this girl is dazzled?"
"Impossible!" Scarlet denied loudly, "My eyesight is first-class, how could I be wrong!"
"This ......" The old man was suddenly a little embarrassed by her roar.
Realizing her rudeness and rudeness, Scarlet lowered her head embarrassedly and explained in a low voice: "Old man, I, I didn't mean that......"
The old man waved his hand and smiled: "It's okay, it's okay." Two, or the two of you will send it here, the road ahead, the old man can walk alone. ”
"How can that work?" Xiao Huge adjusted the position of the burden on his shoulders and continued his serious book, "As the so-called sending the Buddha to the West, since we have already taken over this matter, we will not give up easily. Old man, please continue to lead the way!"
The old man looked at him in a daze, and his face became ugly for a moment.
He coughed and nodded reluctantly, "Okay, since the son insists, it is inconvenient for the old man to continue to prevaricate." Two, this side please. ”
Along the way, the old man had to look back at the two of them every few steps. Scarlet Ni was immersed in Fang Cai's strange phenomenon and didn't notice it, while Xiaohu Ge kept watching silently, keeping the matter in his heart until he arrived at the old man's residence.
It was an independent ordinary thatched house, and apart from a spacious courtyard in front of it, there was not much to see.
Xiaohuge unloaded the firewood in the small courtyard in front of the door and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The towel was taken back by himself, and he was shocked. But two miles of road, I can sweat all the way, why does this old man walk all the way from the mountain, and he doesn't see a drop of sweat?
In the mountains?
Xiaohu Ge frowned and looked at the old man.
It stands to reason that if he was really chopping firewood on the mountain, his clothes would be covered with dust, mud, and fragments of branches and leaves. But his body is ......
But it's as clean as if you've never been to the mountain?
Xiaohu Ge tightened his heart violently, and shouted, "Little junior sister, be careful!" and quickly pulled out his saber from his waist and pointed it at the old man!
Seeing that the senior brother was putting on a posture, Scarlet Ni, who didn't know why, was also dizzy and took out a ten-bone whip from a small cloth bag.
She threw the ten-bone whip to the ground, thinking proudly, ha, it's good to have a Qiankun bag from the master, and she has all kinds of weapons.
"Hmph! Give you a chance to leave, you don't want to, you have to rush to die! In this case, the old decay will fulfill you!"
The one who roared was the talented old man!
It's just that now, he has shed the skin of Shicai, revealing his true face - a black bear with black hair!
"Bear, bear demon?" cried Crimson.
"Roar...... the bear demon roared into the sky, raised his two claws and pounced on Scarlet.
"Little junior sister, hurry back!" shouted down, Xiaohuge jumped across his legs, pushed Scarlet away, and stabbed at the black bear with a swing of his sword.
The black bear spun around and leaped to the side, escaping his sword. Leaving almost no gaps, it immediately fought back.
After a few rounds of battle with Xiaohuge, the black bear actually had the upper hand.
Seeing that the senior brother was in danger, Scarlet was in a hurry, so she grabbed the ten-bone whip and rushed forward. However, just when the black bear's strength was rampant, the ten-bone whip was just swung out, and the black bear slammed into it, knocking her whole body into the air.
Saying that it was too late, Xiaohuge dodged the black bear's attack, and showed his feet lightly, hugged her before Scarlet fell, and held her firmly in his arms, and finally landed smoothly.
Even if he didn't fall and cause secondary damage, the collision of the right black bear really made Scarlet suffer a big loss.
She hugged her arms, only to feel that her body hurt everywhere, her face was pale and ugly, not to mention, even the red lips that had always been moist were no longer bloody at this time, and they became blue.
