Chapter 218: Spooky Town
Seeing the old man who was being helped up by his side, he was not lightly frightened, Xiao Jinxuan hurriedly comforted him in a gentle voice:
"Daddy, don't worry, with us here, we won't let the bamboo bear hurt you, but in which direction the cub bamboo bear ran, can Daddy tell me."
Xiao Jinxuan once read a record of bamboo bears in a rare animal classic, this animal only gives birth once a year, and only gives birth to one cub each time, which is extremely rare, and can barely give birth to two cubs.
Therefore, the bamboo bear has always loved this precious cub, always with him, and the bamboo bear is extremely smart, and some are also very humane, so the treatment of the young bamboo bear is no worse than people treating their children.
And as long as the little bamboo bear is attacked or injured, the adult female bamboo bear will be furious, although it is a vegetarian animal, but it will bite all dangerous existences, and it is very conspicuous, the adult bamboo bear in front of it, is now in this state.
So in order to avoid Zhou Xianyu from fighting with the bamboo bear, Xiao Jinxuan knew that there was actually another solution now, that is, to get the little bamboo bear back safely, and maybe after seeing that the cub was fine, the angry female bamboo bear would calm down.
Seeing Xiao Jinxuan, he asked the little bamboo bear who ran away in a panic which direction he went, and immediately the old man thought about it, and pointed to the bamboo forest on the right side, a pile of dense low bushes, indicating that the little thing was not seen when it went inside.
Immediately, Xiao Jinxuan comforted the old man a few more words, and then quickly got up and walked to the bush, and after squatting down, she saw a fluffy, black and white little bamboo bear that was trembling nervously and helplessly.
Because this little guy is really not big, it is estimated that standing up straight is only as high as Xiao Jinxuan's knees, so this messy pile of shrubs has already entangled it to death, and this little bamboo bear is now screaming in panic.
Especially after seeing Xiao Jinxuan coming over, the little bamboo bear was even more desperate, kicking his limbs violently. Desperately trying to escape.
Looking at this little thing, with a simple and clumsy appearance, Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help but chuckle, then tentatively stretched out her hand, and whispered in her mouth:
"Little thing, don't move, be careful that these branches are scratching you, I won't hurt you, let me rescue you, okay, so that you can go back to your mother."
This bamboo bear is indeed a very spiritual animal, and when he saw the little thing that was still struggling and screaming, he seemed to feel that Xiao Jinxuan was not malicious, and his eyes were not big but very clear, and after blinking, he slowly quieted down.
Immediately, Xiao Jinxuan was also happy in her heart, and hurriedly handed her hand forward for a few points, and at first the little bamboo bear instinctively dodged twice, but when her hand completely touched the other party's little head, this little guy actually made a sound similar to a pleasant snoring.
Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help but laugh at this scene, seeing that the little bamboo bear was no longer resisting herself, she hurriedly pushed away the bushes around her, and then hugged this little thing into her arms.
Although this little bamboo bear is chubby, because it has not grown yet, Xiao Jinxuan is a little struggling, but she still hugs it steadily, and then walks towards Zhou Xianyu.
And Zhou Xianyu, who was confronting the female bamboo bear, although he didn't look back, through the footsteps, he still concluded that Xiao Jinxuan was coming, and he immediately frowned and said:
"Xuan'er, you go back first, this thing is very fierce, I may not be able to take care of you for a while, so you still retreat to a safe ......"
Before Zhou Xianyu's words were finished, he was completely stunned when he saw Xiao Jinxuan, the fluffy little thing in his arms, and he didn't know where the other party got the bamboo bear from.
On the other side, the menacing female bamboo bear, when she saw her cub in Xiao Jinxuan's arms, she was immediately very anthropomorphic, she showed an extremely sad look, and roared softly at the little bamboo bear.
seemed to hear the familiar call of his mother, nestled in Xiao Jinxuan's arms, the very comfortable little bamboo bear, immediately turned over and jumped to the ground, and then went straight to the mother bamboo bear, and ran over.
Because the little guy is still too young, when he ran back, he couldn't help but fall two little heels, and it squeaked and screamed in pain.
This scene not only saw Xiao Jinxuan, but also covered her mouth and chuckled, even Zhou Xianyu, who had a strong aura all around, couldn't help but smile in his eyes, and the murderous aura instantly converged without a trace.
Looking at the pair of bamboo bear mother and son who were reunited, they not only rubbed their noses affectionately, but also whispered and roared.
After making sure that the cubs were okay, the female bamboo bear still waved her paws, stood upright, and faced Xiao Jinxuan and the others, full of hostility and vigilance.
But the little bamboo bear hugged the crook of his mother's leg with all his might, and then let out an anxious scream, and then stretched out his fleshy little paws and kept pointing at Xiao Jinxuan.
As the little guy became more and more impatient, and even later, he began to roll all over the ground, and the female bamboo bear obviously showed an extremely helpless expression, and then gently arched on the little bamboo bear's body, and also nodded to Xiao Jinxuan. The hostility in his eyes vanished.
Although Xiao Jinxuan couldn't hear the beast language, she still felt the kindness and gentleness of the female bamboo bear, and immediately she knew that it must be the credit of the little guy, and it was the other party who persuaded the angry female bamboo bear.
Then, under the gaze of Xiao Jinxuan and others, the little bamboo bear slowly climbed onto the back of the female bamboo bear, and then the little guy looked back at her several times, and then he was a little reluctant, lying on his mother's back, and slowly disappeared between the bamboo forests.
Sending away the bamboo bear mother and son, Zhou Xianyu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, the angry bamboo bear, the attack power is actually no worse than the black bear, plus they are more intelligent and cunning, and they have great strength, it's really right, in fact, he doesn't have a bottom in his heart, after all, he is still injured, and he can't even play half of his usual kung fu.
And seeing that Xiao Jinxuan, without destroying it, used Xiaozhuxiong's escape to resolve this vicious battle, Zhou Xianyu's heart really admired the other party more and more, and felt that in this world, there seemed to be nothing that could help Xiao Jinxuan.
The two returned to the injured old man's side again, this countryman, who was already in strong health, was not afraid of hardship, so although he was injured, the other party would stand up by himself, and try to move his legs and feet, obviously not ready to be bandaged and treated, and was about to go straight down the mountain.
I couldn't bear it in my heart, and Xiao Jinxuan immediately stopped the other party, and said comfortingly:
"Daddy, let's help you down the mountain, now that you are injured, you have difficulty moving, this bamboo forest is very steep, we really don't feel at ease if you go down by yourself, and when we get to the town and send you to the hospital, it's not too late for the two of us to leave."
Hearing this, the old man hurriedly thanked him again and again, but then he sighed and said:
"Two benefactors, I have been saved by you, where do you dare to disturb the two of you and send me down for medical treatment, not to mention that I have returned to the town, we don't have Langzhong there, the rest of the town are all old and weak women and children, and those who can run have all run away."
As soon as he finished saying this, the old man looked at Xiao Jinxuan and the others again, and then said with advice:
"Look at the two of them dressed luxuriously and talking extraordinary, but they are a little embarrassed, but the daughter of the son of the aristocratic family, who eloped away from home and escaped here, the old man advises you, or leave the surroundings of our town quickly, even if you sleep in the open air, don't stay overnight, otherwise it will be a big disaster."
Seeing that this old man actually regarded the two of them as hard-working mandarin ducks who eloped outside, Xiao Jinxuan's face immediately flashed with embarrassment, but Zhou Xianyu laughed heartlessly.
It wasn't until Xiao Jinxuan glared at him fiercely that Zhou Xianyu hurriedly laughed, and said in surprise and curiosity:
"You old man is so unreasonable, just now we saved your life, now since we see that the two of us are hard-working mandarin ducks who eloped, how can you take us in, have a light meal, and let us rest for one night, how can there be a reason to open your mouth to pick people up."
Hearing this, the old man patted his thigh anxiously, and then said with a frightened face:
"Two benefactors, you have wronged me by what you said, it's not that I don't want to take you in, it's really that our town is not clean, and we are making trouble with the goblin who eats people and drinks blood, and it doesn't hurt that this noble lady goes, but a strong man like you, Son, will be taken captive by the king of Montenegro in a few nights, and it will become a delicacy in the mouth of the other party."
Seeing that this old man looked simple and simple, and his words were extremely sincere, not like he was lying, Xiao Jinxuan and Zhou Xianyu were immediately aroused by the other party's mouth, the king of Montenegro who ate people and drank blood.
Zhou Xianyu, who has always been very bold and the most uninhibited, heard that there was a goblin in this town, and under his curiosity, he didn't give the old man a chance to persuade at all, and pulled the other party to Zhuluo Town, bent on seeing and seeing, where the king of Montenegro was sacred.
And Zhou Xianyu is the prince of the royal family of the Great Zhou, speaking of which the people of the Great Zhou are all the people of his old Zhou family, and now there is the so-called demon, and the people of the disturbing side are not at peace.
couldn't resist Zhou Xianyu's nonsense and hippie smile, and the old man could only lead them to Zhuluo Town.
Along the way, through conversation, now Xiao Jinxuan and the others also know that this old man's surname is Zhao, his wife has been dead for many years, and he originally had a daughter-in-law and son, who was filial to his knees, but two years ago, he was taken captive by the king of Montenegro alone, and he never came back, and his daughter-in-law also remarried and left the town.
Now this old man Zhao lives with his granddaughter, relying on a few acres of meager land and digging bamboo shoots for a living.
And Xiao Jinxuan and the others, because Zhou Xianyu's injuries have not healed, if the target is exposed, Xue Hou and others know that they are not dead, they will definitely send someone to chase and kill them again, and it will be quite troublesome at that time.
Therefore, Xiao Jinxuan changed her name to Worry, after all, the word "Xuan" in her name is the meaning of worry-free grass, and in the name of worry, it also complements each other.
In saying Zhou Xianyu, he directly dismantled Zhou Zi, took the auspicious character inside as his surname, and took a pseudonym, called Ji Xianlong, he was originally the emperor's son, he was the son of the royal family, and the word Xianlong was also regarded as his identity vaguely pointed out.
Just as they were talking to Zhao Laohan, they also slowly walked into Luozhu Town, which was different from other market towns, this town was not only dead and silent, but what was even more strange was that they were hanging white silk satin from house to house.
On the main street of the market town, which should be lively, not only is there not a single vendor, but the ground is full of dark money and paper money, and although the sun has not yet set, it gives people a very gloomy and depressing feeling.
Immediately, Xiao Jinxuan and Zhou Xianyu glanced at each other with a somewhat solemn expression, and they were already sure in their hearts, this Luozhu Town is indeed a little weird, it seems that it is really difficult to get a glimpse of the mystery without a careful investigation.
