Chapter 346: Child

PS: The third update!

"No need. It's not for you to repay you, it's just because you're a friend of Xuan Lan. Of course, if you have a bad attitude and a bad personality, the ghost will take the risk to save you. So, don't be a burden. ”

"Uncle Tian, you have left the place at this moment, can you see what kind of place this is?" Hanauexue asked.

"I really don't know. But it shouldn't be too far from the capital. However, looking at the growth of the trees in this dense forest, it is estimated that they are in the jungle, and the jungle closest to the capital is also a hundred miles away, so I want to know what kind of place this is, or wait for us to leave here, and we will know. Xuan Lan said and got up and looked around.

"This place barely lasts the night, so I went to pick up some dry twigs to make a fire, and grabbed some game to roast and eat. You can't go hungry when you're pregnant with a child. ”

"Uncle Tian."

"Huh?"

"Thank you."

Xuantian smiled and turned around and waved his hand, leaving to pick up a nearby dry branch and start a fire.

But a moment later, Xuantian came back and picked up a bundle of branches.

took out the flint and steel to make a fire, Xuantian went to pick up branches and wood a few times and came back, piled them next to the snow on the flowers, built a simple shelf around the fire, hung the wet coat on the shelf to bake, and also blocked the wind, so that the night was not so cold.

Most of the things I had brought with me had been washed away, and the long strip of cloth that had been used to hold the snow in place could be used to keep out the cold after drying.

Xuantian left for half an hour, and Hua Shangxue sat by the fire, and the underwear on his body was also dried, and the fur clothes on his coat were dried. It doesn't dry slowly, it's not cold on the body, but the cotton clothes are not easy to dry, so they can only be baked slowly.

People are not cold at the moment, but their stomachs are hungry.

I didn't see Xuantian come back for half an hour, Hua Shangxue couldn't help but be a little worried, but if she left, if Xuantian came back, I am afraid she would be even more worried.

The snow kept adding firewood, and the stomach kept protesting. It's annoying.

Suddenly a hissing sound came from the trees overhead. I was scared of the snow, but I didn't know when there was a python hanging on the tree, the color of the body was red and charming, and a pair of green eyes were a little scary.

"How could it be. Big winter. Isn't it time for this snake to hibernate? Why is there one here? And it's that huge. At least, it should be ten meters long. Hua Shangxue couldn't help but exclaim, and a crossbow arrow that grabbed the weapon on the wrist in his hand had also been loaded, just waiting for the bewitching python to attack once it attacked. She's not going to show mercy either.

With such a bewitching color, no matter how you look at it, it is a poisonous snake, but you must not let it bite yourself.

Although she was invulnerable to poison in the past, God knows if this poison will have an impact on her abdomen.

What's more, the snake's habit is to strangle its prey with its body, and she will never allow the snake to attack the child.

Just as the snake was looking at each other nervously, there was a sound of footsteps, but it was Xuantian who had returned late.

"Uncle Tian, there are snakes." Hua Shangxue shouted, which attracted Xuantian's attention, and also noticed that the red bewitching, python-like snake coiled on the tree.

"Cher, don't be nervous, that's not a snake. Snakes in winter are hibernating. Put your weapons away and don't this guy off, or we're in trouble. Xuan Tian hurriedly said, but persuaded Hua Shangxue to put away his weapon.

Hua Shangxue's movements paused slightly, but he still put away the weapon as he said, especially the dagger in his hand, which was directly stuffed into the belt, but the crossbow arrow was hidden in his sleeve and retreated to Xuantian's side.

I saw Xuantian throw the prey aside, it turned out to be two fat rabbits, and a few little rabbits, as if he had found the rabbit hole and captured the rabbit family.

Xuantian put away the clothes in the place where the snake-like thing was, and the firewood guy moved his position, still throwing firewood towards the fire from a distance of four or five meters.

The rabbit was killed, tied with a rope, washed down in a sinkhole, and then skewered on a bamboo stand on the fire that he carried out from nowhere.

When the meat was cooked, Hua Shangxue devoured it so much that she was dying of hunger.

In the blink of an eye, a rabbit entered the stomach, and only then did he burp with satisfaction.

The snake-like thing on the tree had been coiled there, four or five meters away from the two of them, and its body had never moved, as if it had just come here to bake the fire and warm up its body, and it was impossible to guess the reason for its sudden appearance.

"Uncle Tian, what the hell is that snake-like thing?" After eating, Hua Shangxue couldn't help asking.

There is such a thing hanging on the top of my head at night, and I am really in no mood to sleep.

"That thing, the mountain people named it 'Pan', the circling plate, which means that when they saw it, it was coiled on the tree. Of course, not every tree will have such a disk. At least it will take more than 1,000 years old trees to appear on the plate. According to the mountain people, the pan generally does not attack people, and the number of people who can see it is a sign that the person is a blessed person. The disc is easy to be mistaken for a python or a snake, but neither the python nor the snake will appear in winter, only the disc will appear on the ancient tree, and the more colorful the body, the longer it has existed. Of course, it is also said that after a thousand years, it will fade into a red snakeskin and transform into a green dragon, which is the guardian saint of the mountains and forests. If it weren't for the fact that it was winter, I wouldn't have recognized this thing here. ”

"Uncle Tian, then you said before that there would be serious consequences if you killed Pan, what is that?"

"It's also hearsay. It is only said that if Pan is killed, the poison of the whole mountain will riot until the person who killed it is killed. ”

Hua Shangxue couldn't help but gasp, such a result is creepy just thinking about it.

Hua Shangxue couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at the so-called pan, and after throwing away his initial fear, when he saw these green eyes at this moment, he actually had a strange feeling.

It's as if this so-called plate is conveying kindness to her.

The day passed, and the day dawned.

After packing up his things, Xuantian insisted on carrying the flowers and snow on his back and leaving the mountain forest.

Inevitably passing by the branches hurt the flowers and snow, and both sides of the back frame were fixed with tough and rare cloths, and the body was fixed in a simple way and left this jungle from nowhere by Xuantian.

Along the way, stop and go, hungry and hunt for game in the mountains, fruits are almost non-existent in this winter, but not impossible.

When I saw the late-maturing mangosteen by chance, I was able to pick it off to relieve my cravings, with a slight sour taste, and my mood became a lot better.

After walking for seven days, I went from being deserted to encountering hunters by chance.

For the appearance of such a combination of Hua Shangxue and Xuantian, the hunters who met knew at a glance that the two of them were in trouble.

The rustic mountain people began to greet the people they knew, and the pregnant woman who was protecting Hua Shangxue with Xuantian slowly approached the nearest mountain village.

The villagers in the mountains are most concerned about the next generation, and the enthusiasm of the people in the village is because of the children in the belly of the snow.

When I arrived at the mountain village, the village chief immediately instructed the women of the village to prepare clothes, hot water and ointment, and clean up the body and medicine for Hua Shangxue.

Xuantian no longer needed to be a savage, the clothes sewn from cowhide on his body were replaced with coarse linen clothes, and after combing and straightening the messy hair, the beard was not shaved off, but only cleaned, obviously not wanting to show his true face.

After some freshening, Xuantian gave people the feeling of a kind of general Biansai, burly and tall, with bright eyes.

As for the color of his pupils, he had already covered up the original blue color and replaced it with a dark brown color under his so-called exercises, which did not look abrupt.

After asking about the route out of the mountain, Xuantian and Hua Shangxue only stayed in the village for a few days, thanked the villagers, and slowly left the mountain in an ox cart to the nearest market town.

The farthest place that the villagers in the mountains know is the so-called market town, and they can't ask for more, and they can only know more information after leaving.

The two of them really didn't have anything of value on them, but fortunately, the fur coat that Hua Shangxue was wearing could wait until they arrived in the town, go to the pawnshop to exchange money, and after inquiring about the location of the capital, they left as entanglement.

took the fur coat as ten taels of silver, knowing that it was the pawnshop shopkeeper, and he was helpless. You can't rob it.

Half of the ten taels of silver was given to the villager who sent them out, as a reward for the help of the whole village.

It can be used to buy some food to take home, so as not to waste the opportunity to send them out.

I found out that the place where it is located is Zhantai Town, which is 200 miles away from the capital, and it is not a hassle to go to the capital, you can take a carriage to go, but the cost is relatively large.

Five taels of silver for two people is simply not enough.

How to keep the flowers from getting anxious.

"Wait a minute, I'll take care of the fare." Xuantian said, turned to leave, but saw him walking towards a boy who was arguing, and he actually stole someone's money bag unknowingly.

Looking at the money bag, there were three silver tickets of one hundred taels, as well as some broken silver.

I don't have to worry about stealing at this moment.

As soon as the flood flooded, there were 12 days ago, and now it is December 15, and it will be the first day of the new year in four days.

For almost half a month, Yu Mi Ying is afraid that she will die in a hurry.

He hired a carriage and headed for the capital.

It was another three days, and I arrived in the capital.

Looking at the familiar city gate, Hua Shangxue only felt like crying.

Ordered someone to go directly to the nearest Qi family's old house, where everyone knew her, and they were not afraid of meeting someone they didn't know to stop her, and only the people of the Qi family could pass the news of her return to Yu Mi Ying faster.

The carriage just stopped at the door of the Qi family, and Hua Shangxue just lifted the curtain of the car, and was actually at the door of the Qi family, and saw Yu Miying standing at the door with a haggard face saying goodbye to Mr. Jing.

I haven't seen him for half a year, he has lost a lot of weight, his temples are actually dyed white, and he has become a lot older, how can he still look like a young man.

got out of the carriage, looked at Yu Miying not far away, her eyes were red with snow, her choked throat trembled, and she shouted, "Xiao Qi." (To be continued......)
