Chapter 32 There is a deserted house by the lake

After leaving from Chen Qing's mansion, Kong Qiu took Su Qing and Snow Bird directly out of Beimo City, walking on the side of the road in the suburbs, there was snow on the road that had not yet evaporated, the snow was not deep but it was still cold, but the only thing that could not stand it was Snow Bird, although the name carried snow, it failed to bring her body the talent to resist the cold, on the contrary, Snow Bird is the kind of person who is more afraid of cold.

Kong Qiu has the body of a sage, has the physical strength that is invincible, looking at his hands and sleeves, like a tall old man who is weak and useless, in fact, he is just used to it, but the years are not forgiving, and now Kong Qiu is a little hunchbacked, not because his body is not good, but the things on his shoulders are too big and too heavy.

Some people don't have to be delivered by others, they will put something on their own shoulders, not for themselves, not for themselves, but only for others, so that others can be better.

The world is so big, and hundreds of millions of sentient beings have such people.

Su Qing is still wearing the new clothes for the New Year, a red cotton coat, looking at it makes people feel that this child is pleasing, because of the awakening of the black shadow in his body, Su Qing has already stepped into the source digging realm, and his body can naturally breathe the aura of heaven and earth in the body and outside the body, this ordinary wind and cold breath can't freeze Su Qing.

How can a woman in the world not love beauty, Xueniao wears less tight-fitting cyan cotton clothes, because to achieve the effect of slimming, set off the girl's graceful figure, so the cotton in the clothes is naturally less, along the way the girl will inevitably sneeze from time to time, Su Qing will wear his own red cotton hat that matches the clothes to Xueniao.

In fact, Su Qing himself was reluctant to wear it, and always felt that it didn't look good to wear, because there was a slug in Sujia Village that was similar to Su Qingji, who liked to wear a hat no matter how cold or hot it was, and Su Qing felt that he was the same as that slug.

Su Qing sometimes looked at the snowbird, and looked at the tall girl in her eyes wearing the red cotton hat, which was quite pleasing to the eye.

On the wide official road, the three people on the road, in fact, there is another one, that is, the black charcoal who is now hiding in Su Qing's clothes and sleeping, still the size of a palm, and was brought out by Su Qing.

Along the way, what Su Qing saw, whether it was far away or near the front, was a white expanse, much colder than Sujia Village, but the feeling of walking in this place, Su Qing felt that it was "free" than Sujia Village, which was surrounded by mountains, and did not and could not feel the kind of "siege" and "crowding", but now out of Beimo City, I feel that the sky is high and the earth is wide, and there is a feeling that fish enter the sea and birds fly out of the woods and soar in the sky.

On the way, Kong Qiu explained the cultivation to Su Qing, in fact, it can be summarized in a few words, that day on the sea cliff at the mouth of the Moyuan River, Kong Qiu has already spoken in detail, and Su Qing has basically memorized it, and now Kong Qiu is just talking about some dispensable, those climbing scenery on the cultivation road.

Once you embark on the path of cultivation, everyone's "Tao" is different, but there are only two ways to walk in it, one is to pay homage to the avenue, to be recognized, and to be able to pass unimpeded, and the other is to plunder the power of heaven and earth, fight with the sky, fight with the earth, fight with people, and use your strength to open a road to heaven on the path of cultivation.

Xueniao listened carefully beside him, Kong Qiu didn't shy away from it, Su Qing didn't care about it, at the right time, Su Qing also wanted to talk to Xueniao about the so-called vastness of the world and the size of the world, and the names of the gods, demons and monsters in those books all really existed.

"Sir, where are we going now?" asked Su Qing.

"There is an orthodox academy of our Ren family in the Dazhu Dynasty, called Linlu Academy, and our trip ends there. It's a long way to go, so you and the snowbird need to be patient. Kong Qiu stroked his beard and said.

"Hmm. Su Qing nodded.

Xueniao has a cold temperament, doesn't like to talk, and can't speak, so he nodded with Su Qing.

It was dark very early in winter, and the three of them, who had been walking for almost three hours, began to slow down, in fact, because of the girl's family, the snow bird, the body is always relatively weak, although the heart is stubborn, not to say it, but Kong Qiu and Su Qing are both careful people, and when they noticed that the snow bird couldn't keep up with the pace, they limped behind and followed.

If they didn't find someone to stay with before dark, they would have to sleep in the wild, Kong Qiu was still a little worried that Su Qing and Xueniao would not get used to it.

The snowbird seems to have a cramp in his feet, limping, walking is difficult, and his body is afraid of cold, and at this moment there is sweat on his forehead, Su Qing is short, and he can't help the snowbird, and Kong Qiu is not suitable, if you use the power of the rules to bless the snowbird, so that it can avoid pain, Kong Qiu feels that there is no need, because then this trip is meaningless, so why not rent a carriage, not to mention the Linlu Academy located in the other state of the Dazhu Dynasty, that is, other dynasties other than the Dazhu Dynasty can travel and come back.

"There's a house there. Su Qing saw that under the dim sky in front of him, there was a house built by a large lake, and a few fires were faintly visible in the house.

"Let's go spend the night. Kong Qiu said.

When the snow bird saw the house in the distance, her face couldn't help showing joy, but when Su Qing turned her head to look at her, she lowered her head like a child who had done something wrong, Su Qing didn't say anything and turned her head, this silence made the snow bird even more guilty, and the joy on her face disappeared instantly.

There were several small forests around the big lake, and the house was behind a small forest, but when Su Qing and the others arrived at the small forest, they stopped, and saw a path about two feet wide leading to the house located by the lake, the path was overgrown with weeds, and it looked like it had been abandoned for many years, if it wasn't located in the middle of this small forest, it couldn't be seen that it was once a road.

Standing in front of the small forest, as far as the eye can see, you can see the house, there are many weeds growing around the house, there are no traces of recent pruning, but at this moment the house is actually lit by fire, which is unbelievable and a little scary.

"The grass has signs of being crushed. Su Qing pointed to a few places where the weeds were irregularly shaped.

"Probably someone like us who came here to stay overnight. This house should be a deserted house that has been uninhabited for many years, and it is getting late, so let's go and see it first. After speaking, Kong Qiu took the lead and walked over, and the height of these weeds reached the waist of the old man.

The snowbird was at the end, watching Su Qing walk into the grass, but suddenly disappeared, and a red figure was faintly visible through the gap, and the snowbird hurriedly followed.

Through the grass, Kong Qiu, who came out first, stood on a stone slab, only to see a row of stone slabs in front of him spread on the ground, extending to the door of the house, which was quite exquisite.

The structure of the house is square, there is only one wall on one side of the door, and the other three sides are two-storey, and there is a platform made of wood on the side by the lake, which connects the house at one end and plunges into the water at the other end, which is a place where you can watch the scenery and fish.

At this moment, the sky is not completely dark, but it is already a little quiet in the dead of night.

Su Qing followed Kong Qiu into the open gate and found that there were three horses in the small courtyard, and the reins of the horse's head were tied to the wooden fence of the return road of the house.

Su Qing looked at the hall facing the gate, where many candles were lit, and the room was bright, and then looked at the second floor, there was a faint firelight, and with the firelight, you could see that a figure was shaking, and suddenly, Su Qing suddenly raised his head and looked at the roof, there was a figure there, it was getting late, and he couldn't see his face clearly, but he saw a burly figure, with his hands crossed in front of his chest, looking down at Su Qing.

Although he couldn't see his eyes clearly, Su Qing could imagine that he must be condescending disdain, and he couldn't help but feel a little irritable in his heart.

"Let's go to the living room and do it first. Kong Qiu didn't need to look up to know that there was someone on the roof, so he didn't care about it, but he noticed a little tyranny in Su Qing's heart, and hurriedly turned around and shouted.

Xueniao knew Su Qing's temperament very well, glanced at the figure on the roof, walked to Su Qing's side, put his hands on his shoulders and said, "Young Master, let's go rest first." ”

Su Qing breathed heavily for a cycle and walked to the living room.

On the roof, this trip escorted four little rabbit cubs, the man named Chen Shenxiong was a little surprised, as a martial arts family with a name in Beimo City, he was accustomed to being restrained when he had nothing to do, and precipitated the martial intent in his heart, not only to make the seeker feel that this is a mortal, but also to hide and live, so that people are not easy to detect, if the means are enough, even if he stands behind others and follows closely, he can not be discovered, those assassins kill people, that is, the means of concealment are unfathomable, so that they can kill people invisibly, and track people without interest。

"Is it because of the amazing inspiration from nature, or is my hidden method not enough?" Then Chen Shenxiong shook his head, immediately ruled out the latter, and regarded Su Qing as a good seedling of martial arts, and had a bit of an apprenticeship.

Chen Gray Xiong continued to stand on the roof, this trip followed the old man's son Gao Le here, he didn't care, felt that it was simply killing chickens with a knife, but Chen Gray Xiong had to come, although he had never recognized Gao Le, but the loyal person only had Gao Le's son under his knees, and Chen Gray Xiong would definitely need to serve him as the master in the future, so he needed to have a good relationship.

At least Gao Le's respectful-sounding Uncle Chen made Chen Gray Xiong feel a sense of accomplishment, but the so-called "ghost", Chen Gray Xiong felt that it was just alarmist, even if there really was, with his own strength, I was afraid that even a hundred ghosts would be repelled by him at night, so let Gao Le and his friends mess around in this house.

In the hall, the two rows of tables and chairs on the left and right were covered with a layer of dust, and the whole room was covered with a layer of dust, and the dense footprints on the ground were faintly visible in the light of the fire of the new candles on the hall.

Five people. Su Qing identified the size of the footprints and directly saw the correct answer.

Xueniao entered the house and began to clean the chair, and it was very likely that the feet in the shoes were worn out of the skin, but after Xueniao cleaned up a chair, he did not sit by himself, but shouted to the young master, wanting Su Qing to sit.

As soon as Su Qing identified the footprints on the ground, he heard the snowbird calling him, so he turned his head and walked over directly, pressed his hands on the snowbird's waist and pushed it back, Su Qing supported the snowbird with his strength, and let it fall down and sit lightly on the chair.

"Sit down, don't move. Six-year-old Su Qing has a immature face, but he pretends to be fierce with a straight face.

Su Qing squatted down and began to untie the snowbird's cotton shoes, and the latter was just about to hide, but was kicked by Su Qing's eyes and didn't dare to move.

The fat man Li Cheng came with Gao Le, walked around the second floor for a while, and when he was bored, he came down from the open space above the living room, where there was a staircase leading to the back of the living room, and outside was the lakeside platform where he could fish.

Li Cheng walked down the stairs and happened to meet Kong Qiu, who was walking around blindly in the back of the hall, the tall old man with gray hair was in this mansion where there were ghost rumors, and the candlelight in the hall slightly illuminated half of his body, which looked really weird.

Li Cheng, who was already timid, directly believed that Kong Qiu was one of the people who died in this mansion, and turned into a ghost at this moment.

"Hell!" The courage was not proportional to the figure, but the voice was proportional, and Li Cheng's scream resounded throughout the silent lakeside deserted house.
