Chapter 6 Companionship
It's been the seventh day since heading west, and along the way, it's sparsely populated, and sometimes it's hard to find a single person for a day.
On this day, when He Lang was walking forward by himself, he suddenly heard the sound of a girl crying for help not far from his side. He Lang was just stunned, and then hurried towards the voice.
At a glance, I was taken aback, only to see a black and yellow tiger chasing after a girl, this girl was thirteen or fourteen years old, her face was pale, her hair was running wildly, and the distance between the tiger was not more than a zhang, the tiger's fur was shiny, and she stood up enough to be an adult, and it was fierce.
The girl was already in a panic, and a young man suddenly appeared in front of her, and she rushed behind the young man with an arrow step, and then her body trembled.
Before he had time to react, the tiger had already pounced on He Lang, opened his bloody mouth, and took a bite towards He Lang's left shoulder.
said that it was too late and that was fast, at the same time as being bitten, He Lang's body was as light as lightning and avoided it, and his backhand raised his arm to make a fist towards the tiger's head, only to hear the sound of "bang", where the fist was hit, the green and yellow things burst out, and the tiger suddenly collapsed.
He Lang and the girl were splashed by the bursting of the tiger's brain, and they were embarrassed.
He Lang secretly thought to himself, it was really a miracle, at first he saw the tiger He Lang was also very frightened in his heart, and exclaimed in his heart that my life was over, he wanted to turn his head and escape, but he didn't want to be grabbed by the girl, and he couldn't move a little, seeing the tiger bite his left shoulder, he was so frightened that he closed his eyes, and his fist subconsciously hit the tiger's head, who knew that such a punch would solve the beast.
He Lang looked down at his hand and stood there for a long time.
The girl didn't thank He Lang, but ran desperately towards the way she had escaped, shouting 'Grandpa, Grandpa'........' as she ran
When he came back to his senses, He Lang also followed, and not far away, an old man was lying on the ground, covered in blood, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
The girl lay down in front of the old man and cried loudly, shaking the old man's body vigorously with both hands, not knowing what to do at all.
Although He Lang has no experience in this area, he also knows that if he continues to shake like this, the living will also be shaken out of the problem.
So he stepped forward and said, "Girl, don't shake it, let's see how people are doing." ”
He Lang's words reminded the girl, and she stopped shaking and looked straight at the old man, but she kept calling her grandfather.
He Lang lowered his body and found that the old man's breath was weak, and he was afraid of bleeding too much, and there was no possibility of survival.
Perhaps it was the girl's shouting that made the departing soul pause its departure, and the old man opened his eyes leisurely, but apparently, his eyes were gone.
The old man's gaze moved from the girl to He Lang's side, and guessed that it should be this young man who rescued his grandfather and grandson, so he said slowly: "Thank you little hero, the old man is afraid that his life will not be long." ”
The words were weak, and the girl put her ear to the old man's mouth and listened carefully, but she couldn't stop crying.
He Lang's ears and eyes are psychic, and it will not be difficult to listen.
"My ancestors and grandchildren depend on each other for their lives, collecting elixirs for a living, I don't want to suffer a catastrophe today, it's not a pity to die of old age, but after I left, this granddaughter was young and no one took care of her, and I begged the little hero to do me a favor. The old man said, trembling in his arms and pulling out a thin cloth bag.
"There is a letter in this package, and some dry food, this letter was brought by my little girl not long ago, she is now Bishui Pavilion, Bishui Pavilion is in the territory of Qingyu Mansion, so it has been to the west, begging the little hero to take Fei'er to go to her aunt, and the old man can also be blinded. ”
Looking at the old man's pleading gaze, He Lang agreed without hesitation, and said, "Don't worry, I will send her there." ”
The old man looked at the girl again, and passed away in uneasiness and reluctance.
He Lang found a tree trunk, cut out the tip of the shovel, and began to dig a pit, and after a while, a deep pit was dug and prepared to bury the old man, so that his body would not be humiliated again by the beasts in the mountains.
The girl and the old man must have a deep relationship, several times crying and fainting, and was kneaded by He Lang to wake up, He Lang explained his thoughts to the girl, and the girl finally agreed, let the old man go into the ground. After the event, he insisted on keeping filial piety in front of the grave for three days, and He Lang must agree.
After doing this, He Lang took the girl on the road together, the girl had just lost her loved one, and her heart was sad, so she was speechless all the way, and only bowed her head and followed behind He Lang.
Because he was on the same road with the girl, in order to adapt to the girl, He Lang slowed down his pace.
After walking for less than half a day, He Lang found that the distance between the girl and himself was getting bigger and bigger, and no matter how much he slowed down, he couldn't let her keep up.
He thought about it for a while, and suddenly realized that it had been almost five days since the girl met, perhaps because the dry food on her body had been eaten, coupled with excessive sadness, I am afraid that her physical strength had long been exhausted.
Thinking of this, he led the girl to a stream, sat down, took out two fruits, and handed them to the girl.
The girl did not refuse, and her hunger eased a little after eating.
"You wait here, I'll go and touch a few fish in the stream, and I'll grill them later. As he spoke, He Lang's eyebrows were slightly bent, and he looked at the girl very friendly.
The girl looked at He Lang, who was younger than herself but more mature than herself, and her heart warmed, and she burst into tears.
"I also experienced the pain of leaving my relatives not long ago, and I almost died, I understand your current mood very well, but we must try to live better!" He Lang saw that the little girl was about to cry, and hurriedly comforted.
"Who else can bully you?" the girl asked incredulously, in her mind, the person who could kill the tiger with one punch was an incomparably powerful existence, even if the other party was smaller than herself.
"Isn't it, I've been on the run these days, but I know that our relatives are watching us from the sky, and we have to go down bravely. He Lang can now calmly describe what he has experienced.
When the girl heard this, she seemed to have found someone who was sympathetic, so she stretched out her hand and said, "My name is Mo Fei'er, thank you for your rescue and care." Finally, a long-lost smile appeared on the girl's little face.
By the stream, a handsome little boy looked westward, pointing to the fire clouds in the sky as if he was talking about something, and a handsome girl who was slightly longer than a teenager next to him showed an imperceptible smile while listening, this is the encounter between He Lang and Mo Fei'er.
In Mo Fei'er's heart, he regarded He Lang as his closest relative. I always feel that this teenager who looks younger than himself is more like his brother.
"What is the practice of qigong and how is it practiced?" Mo Fei'er heard that He Lang could kill a tiger with a single punch because he was practicing a kind of exercise, so his interest soared.
"Practicing qigong is a kind of physical comfort after practice, and can play a role in strengthening the body, practicing this exercise, eyes and ears are bright, memory is good, and of course the strength is greater. He Lang explained seriously.
"He Lang, He Lang, I also want to learn, is it okay?" I didn't expect Mo Fei'er to rise so much, and her little face turned red with excitement.
"Of course you can, but this exercise is very difficult to practice, and it tests people's patience and perseverance, are you willing to endure this suffering?"
After thinking about it, he added: "And the process of practicing the Fa is also quite dangerous, and if you are not careful, there will be no recovery." ”
"I'm not afraid, you can practice, and I can do the same!" Mo Fei'er said firmly.
Because of the addition of Mo Feier, He Lang decided to hurry during the day and hide in a secluded place to rest at night.
Of course, He Lang will teach Mo Fei'er the exercises in the intervals. He Lang checked with his divine sense, Mo Fei'er has five spiritual roots, and those with spiritual roots have the opportunity to step into the immortal path, so it can be seen that Mo Fei'er can be practiced. But whether the five spirit roots are good or not, He Lang is at a loss.
"He Lang, why can't I see this aura?"
"He Lang, how can I channel the aura into my body?"
"He Lang, I can import it, but why does it flow so slowly?"
"He Lang, how long will it take me to break through?"
He Lang always smiled helplessly, as if he didn't know it. Then, when Mo Feier's gaze turned from expectation to disappointment, he raised his eyebrows ghostly, and his eyes lit up as if he remembered. Every time, Mo Feier would tease him to get up and chase him, but this trick was tried and tested.
Every time Mo Fei'er yelled and ignored He Lang anymore, but after a while, he was reconciled again.
It has been more than a month since they left the underground river in Ho Lang. The road has always been sparsely populated, and occasionally I meet one or two passers-by, and I am in a hurry.
On this day, as evening approached, the two were ready to find a secluded place, so they went separately to find a suitable location.
"Ah!! Ho Lang, come on, there's a snake!" Mo Fei'er screamed.
He Lang hurriedly leaned over to take a look, under normal circumstances, Mo Feier was never afraid of non-aggressive animals in the wild, which was probably the discovery of something unusual.
I saw a giant thing that looked like a python and not a python by the stream, five meters long, more than one meter thick, red gold all over, and the chest was ochre, the strange thing is that under this body, there were four legs, because of lying on his stomach, he did not look closely, and he would not find that there were feet, his eyes were slightly confused at this time, his body trembled, and there were fourteen or five wounds on his back that were several inches deep.
"What kind of monster is this? Come here, danger. He Lang shouted at Mo Fei'er.
He Lang was shocked, it was really unbelievable that such a thing suddenly appeared in this wilderness.
At this time, Mo Fei'er was already petrified, standing in front of him dumbfounded, motionless as if he had lost his soul.
When He Lang saw this thing's eyes, his whole body trembled, and his soul seemed to be sucked out of his body with uncontrollable power.
He secretly screamed that it was not good, but he was powerless to struggle.
Just when He Lang's mind was blank, the aperture of his left palm was slightly bright, and a cluster of golden light shot into his eyes, and then he suddenly woke up from his sluggishness.
