Chapter 15: Take it and feed it to the wolves
After Li Zheng and Dong Mingxuan heard this, they glanced at each other. I also knew in my heart that this was the county lord who didn't want to take care of this nonsense, so he could only bring people back to Qinghe Village.
"Mingxuan, it seems that we still have to take this person back, but I don't know if this disease can be cured well, you still have to do your best!" If she can be cured, it is the best, and we also have a bottom in our hearts, if it is not cured, I don't know when the official family will send someone to come over. Li Zheng said helplessly to Dong Mingxuan.
"It seems that this is the only way to go. Let's take it back first. Dong Mingxuan patted the dust on his body. In fact, he knew in his heart that no one had ever gone up to this Meiwu Mountain for so many years, and there were not necessarily any ancient tombs in it. Maybe there is something up there, and the official family needs it, so they sent someone to find it. It's just that this thing can't tell the world, and it's naturally extremely mysterious.
He had been to Meiwu Mountain before, but the terrain on this mountain was very complex and the trees were dense. There are many poisonous insects, as if they have cast a formation, and they have never gone to the center. Dong Mingxuan thought so in his heart, he had been away from the imperial court for so many years. Now His Majesty is his own enemy again, and when people began to come, he thought he was coming to find Qingfeng. After all, Qingfeng is considered an orthodox bloodline, and it seems that they have found the wrong thing on this Meiwu Mountain, which is really incomprehensible.
"Hey. Seeing that you drink like this, you really can't get drunk. You make this wine so well, why don't you let me taste it?" Bai Jiaojiao looked at Li Jingcheng and drank without a sip. Nor does it look like someone who wants to get himself drunk.
Li Jingcheng ignored her, still drinking slowly, how could he get drunk? I used to get drunk, but in the past few years, I haven't gotten drunk anymore, no matter how much I drink. He also wants to get drunk, and he can get drunk to relieve a thousand sorrows, I am afraid that it is the most chic thing in the world.
"Do you have anything bothering me to tell me about it, maybe I can think of some way to help you. If you drink like this, you may not be able to think of a way to solve things, and you will hurt your body in vain. Bai Jiaojiao saw Li Jingcheng ignore her and continued.
Seeing that Li Jingcheng still ignored her, she felt a trace of anger in her heart, stood up and walked in front of Li Jingcheng. He snatched the flask from his hand and slammed it on the table, and the wine in the flask scattered slightly. Li Jingcheng looked up at the little girl in front of him, and the light from those eyes seemed to be able to flash everything. It seems to be full of vast stars, which makes people addicted.
Li Jingcheng and Bai Jiaojiao looked at each other for a while, looking at each other's eyes, as if they were competing. Bai Jiaojiao looked at the cold light in Li Jingcheng's eyes, and was a little frightened for a while. It was a pair of eyes that seemed to be full of death, which made people feel chills all over their bodies. When those eyes stared at themselves, they only made themselves feel as if they were facing death.
Bai Jiaojiao hurriedly avoided eye contact, and weakly retreated to the place where she was sitting. Li Jingcheng didn't look at her either, just raised his head and looked at the scenery outside the window.
"Hey, do you want to talk about it, are you going to treat me like a trash can and pour your thoughts out? You're like this, you're going to suffocate sooner or later. You really don't know what to do, this girl is rare to show mercy once, let you use it as a trash can to confide in, and you still don't say it. Bai Jiaojiao looked at Li Jingcheng and didn't look at her, and she became bold again.
"Hey, he looks so handsome, but his personality is so awkward. Seeing that your age is also twenty-four or five years old, much older than me, I didn't know how to recruit girls to like you before. But looking at the way you look, you can live in the mountains, and you shouldn't be a person who is addicted to beauty, no wonder you are so incomprehensible. It's just a pity, if any of the thousands of good sons and daughters in this world fall in love with you, it won't break the heart of a place. Bai Jiaojiao was bored with her chin in her left hand, playing with a teacup in her right hand, her eyes wide open as she looked at Li Jingcheng who was sitting in front of her, and complained secretly.
Li Jingcheng glanced at the woman sitting next to him. Such a scene is very similar to more than ten years ago, that day. I am still young, and I sit in front of the bookcase and read books every day. That person also said that he had an awkward personality.
"Brother Jingcheng, what's so good about this book, let's go outside and play. Listening to the fifth brother, the Buddha Temple in the West Mountain has moved ten miles of peach blossoms, and now is the time of spring, and the peach blossoms are blooming, and many official ladies have gone to that mountain to make wishes. I want to go too, I've never seen anything like it. "The little girl is also holding her chin with her left hand, and she is spinning with a brush on the bookcase in her right hand, and her eyes are wide open and looking at herself." If those official ladies knew that you had also gone to that mountain, what kind of trouble might you incur? You are so good-looking, and many people have fallen in love with you. Then be your bride, and I don't know what's so good about a stuffy gourd like you? The little girl turned her head unhappily and looked at him no more.
And the little boy sitting across from the bookcase just smiled helplessly. I still took the little girl to the Buddha Temple in Xishan to see the ten miles of peach blossoms. On that day, he made a wish under the peach blossom tree. It's just that the wish has been sealed into the depths of memory and cannot be touched.
"Hey, if you don't speak, I'm leaving. When I come back later, you'll still be living here. Bai Jiaojiao said.
"Where are you going?" Li Jingcheng asked.
"Oh, you finally got back to me, I thought you were dumb. My stepfather said that he would move his family to Jiangnan, but he didn't say when he would leave, but it was probably in the next month or two. It has been banned under the mountain, and some time ago someone came to Meiwu Mountain to find some ancient tomb? I don't know if you saw it? It is said that a large number of people died on this mountain, and Uncle Lizheng in the village said that he was not allowed to get close to this mountain, for fear that it would be an official family, and he would send someone over again, and he would come secretly this time. I guess I won't be able to come back next time. Bai Jiaojiao stretched her waist and said.
The girl's tone was extremely casual, as if she had just come to the mountain this time and had specially said goodbye to him, and she didn't care much about the injury on her leg. Li Jingcheng was speechless for a while, looking at her.
Dong Mingxuan looked at the girl in front of him, and there was a trace of turmoil in his heart. It's been a long time since anyone has simply come to him, either for his rights or for his abilities. No one is ever looking only at himself and not at what he has behind his back. It's like having it once, and not having it now.
"Don't you have anything to eat? I haven't eaten since I climbed here in the morning. It's almost noon now, and you're too ignorant of human feelings, so please boss, give me something to eat. It's good to ask for a cup of tea. Bai Jiaojiao looked at Li Jingcheng with a bitter face.
"I have little food here, and if you are hungry, hurry down the mountain. When you get home, you may still have some lunch. Li Jingcheng looked at her expression, as if she was very bitter and affectionate, and her dress was humane.
"Oh, you man! I'm really angry, I can't bear you. I don't know when I will return, and I don't know what to do, but I actually made me angry. Bai Jiaojiao slapped the table hard and glared at Li Jingcheng. If you say so, then I'd better go down the mountain early now, and I won't come back again. As he spoke, he turned around and was about to walk out the door.
As soon as Bai Jiaojiao walked to the door and was about to open the door and go out, she saw a person standing at the door with a cold expression. Looking at that person, there was a trace of cold air all over his body, what kind of master there is, what kind of guard. The man was in the middle of the door, and Bai Jiaojiao wanted to go out but couldn't. He turned around and glanced at Li Jingcheng fiercely. I saw that Li Jingcheng was still holding the wine jug in his hand, and he drank it without a sip.
Bai Jiaojiao, the guard was still blocking the middle of the door, and said angrily, "What are you doing here?" Get me out. The guard remained unmoved.
"Master, I just caught some game, and I'm already roasting it." Lightning said steadily, quietly slanting his gaze to the woman by the way.
I saw that the woman was still frowning and angry just now, but now she smiled instantly when she heard that there was food. Lightning couldn't help but be shocked, and hurriedly looked away, the ancients said, only women and villains can not be raised, the words of the ancients are really not wrong.
Li Jingcheng raised his eyes and glanced at it, but didn't speak, just waved his hand and let the lightning go down. As soon as Bai Jiaojiao's eyes were eaten when she heard this, she instantly let go of her light, "It turns out that you are not the only one here." Hehehe! Good! Bai Jiaojiao said with some embarrassment.
She was so incapable that she climbed down the mountain hungry. At breakfast today, I was always thinking about how to run to the mountains, so I didn't eat much, it was noon, and my stomach was naturally hungry and sounded the alarm. If he continues on an empty stomach, he will definitely be hungry and don't know the way. Bai Jiaojiao took another embarrassing step, achieved the position she was sitting in before, and secretly raised her eyes to look at Li Jingcheng's expression. Seeing that he was still unmoved, he boldly sat there.
picked up the teacup in front of him, poured some water, and then slowly picked it up and took a sip to relieve his embarrassment. He looked up again and glanced at it secretly, thinking to himself that the person should not be a person with a small belly. How can you bother with my little woman? Cuckoo...... For a while, I was embarrassed and didn't know what to do. Bai Jiaojiao hurriedly put her hand on her stomach and patted it slowly. I secretly hated myself for not eating more in the morning, and now I was so embarrassed. He slowly lowered his head, his head was about to drop to his chest, pricked up his ears, and hurriedly listened to the movement, but he still saw that the man was unmoved.
Li Jingcheng has been practicing martial arts all year round, even if he doesn't look at his ears, he is in all directions. I had already heard the woman's stomach rumbling twice, and I laughed secretly in my heart, but I saw that the woman was very embarrassed, and her head hung low. His cheeks were also slightly red, and even his ears were as red as an apple. Bai Jiaojiao didn't look up at this time, she missed Li Jingcheng's few smiles, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly, although it was not obvious, it was also extremely weird.
It's just that Li Jingcheng didn't say anything as if he was deliberately embarrassed, but he still sat there, holding a wine jug in his hand. At this time, if this scene is for lightning to see, after all, I feel that I have seen a spirit, and every time the master of the family drinks, there is a cold breath around him. When the corners of the mouth are slightly raised like this, as if they are very happy.
Bai Jiaojiao saw that Li Jingcheng still looked like an old god, and said a little anxiously, "You see that you drink on an empty stomach like this, it is harmful to your health, it is better to eat a little cushion first." Didn't your men just say that they had caught some game? The roasted game with wine is the best. After saying that, he had a good expression for him, which was very funny.
Li Jingcheng also had a hint of amusement when he saw him like this, and after a while, he saw lightning enter the house, holding two roasted crispy and fragrant fish in his hands, looking very appetizing, Bai Jiaojiao snorted fiercely. Because of modern reasons, she has always been very polite at the dinner table, but now that she is so hungry, she doesn't want to observe that kind of etiquette. He stepped forward and took the fish in Lightning's hand, and ate it in a big gulp, saying "It's delicious, it's delicious!" ”
A trace of disgust flashed in Li Jingcheng's eyes, he hadn't seen others eat like this for a long time, as if he was eating delicacies from the mountains and seas in his mouth, which made people look very appetizing. He couldn't help but turn his gaze to the other fish, which was also in charge of his diet on weekdays, and the taste in his mouth was generally never as delicious as the food made by Lightning. Now I wonder if I'm too picky.
