Chapter 60: Messenger
However, she was unfamiliar with life, so she could only let butterflies and pigeons guide her, but fortunately she was greeted by a clear lake, clean and not very deep. After walking to the lake, Li Xianxian hurriedly took off the clothes on his body and entered the water wearing only a light gauze coat.
The moment the cool lake water touched her skin, Li Xianxian couldn't help but shrink her neck, fortunately, it was early autumn, and if it was winter, she was afraid that she would freeze to death.
The afternoon of early autumn is the time when the sun is the most intense, the water temperature is quickly adapted to the body, and finally you can relax your vigilance, Li Xianxian slowly rubbed off the mud and dirt on her body, enjoying the calm time at the moment.
After running in the water for almost half an hour, Li Xianxian reluctantly climbed out of the lake, threw the already unsightly clothes into the pool and scrubbed them vigorously, and wrung out the dead branches hanging not far away.
Waiting for the sun and autumn wind to dry his clothes, Li Xianxian sat by the lake, wearing a white dress and enjoying the company of butterflies and flying pigeons.
The person passing by in the distance looked at the beautiful picture, and for a while thought that he had seen a fairy, he slowly stepped forward, and looked at Li Xianxian with a look of envy as if he was dancing among the butterflies, "You are...... Fairies? ”
When Li Xianxian heard this, he turned his head sharply and looked at the man who was already standing not far away in surprise. After a while, Li Xianxian reacted, and after looking at the man from top to bottom, he found that he seemed to be just an ordinary person, "I'm not a fairy......
"That's a youkai?" The man spoke, and the expression on his face suddenly became a little wary.
"That doesn't mean I'm a monster! Which eye of yours can see that I'm a youkai, and if I were a youkai, do you think you would still be standing here? Li Xianxian frowned unhappily and spoke.
When the man heard this, he looked at Li Xianxian suspiciously, but it is not a fairy or a monster who can have such a look in this world, could it be a human?
Thinking of this, the man snorted coldly, "Don't lie to me, my grandmother once told me that all the beauties in this world except for fairies are demon girls, and demon girls are ruthless and eat people's hearts!" Aren't you? ”
Li Xianxian was helpless and sneered, "How old are you?" What did your grandmother say? What kind of world is this now, and there are such men who have never seen the world! It's not like my husband......" Speaking of this, Li Xianxian couldn't help but be stunned, how could she always talk about her husband?
Speaking of which, it's really strange, I don't know if my husband has seen the carrier pigeon responsible for delivering messages to himself and him now.
"Do you still have a husband? You really are human! The man was surprised, after all, he had never heard of such a rumor that youkai would also get married. In his opinion, only humans can get married.
"Nonsense, this girl is naturally human, but she fell here because of some accidents! You said that you are blind, even if you are blind, you are still so kind, this girl is already so miserable, you are still here to fall into the well! Such a person with bad intentions, even a fairy will spurn you when she sees you! ”
I saw the man scratch the back of his head in embarrassment, "Don't blame the girl, I'm just a rough person, and I don't know much." But girl, why do these butterflies and pigeons surround you? You say you're not a fairy, and you're not a monster, so why ......?"
Seeing that the man bowed his head, Li Xianxian chuckled, "You don't know this, I had a serious illness when I was young, and after I recovered, there was an extra fragrance on my body, and it was this fragrance that attracted these butterflies and pigeons!" ”
"I see, I don't look at the girl like a bad person. My mother told me that youkai like to capture people's hearts and minds at first, and they are obedient to their prey, and they will attack after gaining the trust of the other party. But now it seems that the girl is not so smart......"
“…… If you can't speak, don't open your mouth! Now you know, I'm not a monster or a fairy, so hurry home and don't worry your grandmother! Li Xianxian opened his mouth angrily, and after finishing speaking, he bent down and continued to sit on the ground.
Such an unpresumptuous woman wants to live in this barren mountain and wilderness, if he doesn't care about it, then he really has no good thoughts in his heart, "If you don't mind, you can go back to my house with me, how can you say that it is like spending the night in such a place?" ”
"It's okay, I'm used to it, and being with animals is like being with people who don't see the same thing. When you go back, keep what you saw me today a secret, and don't tell anyone! ”
The man was a little surprised, "But why does the girl avoid people if she is not a demon or an immortal?" ”
I saw Li Xianxian with her back to him, and the man looked at her side face and slowly raised a wry smile, "It's a long story......
"Since I see you today, I will not sit idly by, you can rest assured, my home is only me, my mother and grandmother, if you don't dislike it, go to the humble house for a while, how can it be better than staying in this barren mountain and wilderness. Moreover, I see that you are skinny, and I am afraid that you have not eaten well for a long time. ”
Li Xianxian looked back at the man, and after he finished speaking, he saw that he took out the pheasant that he had just hunted from the back basket behind him, "Look, when I ask my mother to stew it in the evening, you can also make up for your body." ”
Thinking that this pheasant would become his own meal later, Li Xianxian subconsciously touched his shriveled belly.
"Well, in that case, then I'll reluctantly go back with you!" It's just one night, and nothing should happen in one night!
Seeing that Li Xianxian agreed, the man breathed a sigh of relief and nodded with a smile, "Let's go, my house is a little far away, and I have to go back before dark." ”
"Good!" Li Xianxian said, hurriedly ripped his clothes off the branches and put them on his body. Then he followed the man into the mountains.
After walking for half an hour, Li Xianxian looked at the scenery in front of him in surprise, only to see a small village on the top of the mountain, filled with smoke like a fairyland on earth, "This is your village?" ”
"Don't dislike the girl, the people in our village make a living by hunting and picking herbs, so we can only live in this kind of barren mountains and mountains!" The man said with a little shame.
"This is a fairyland, it's too late for me to be happy, how can I feel disgusted!" After Li Xianxian finished speaking, he hurriedly walked a few steps forward, and when he turned around, he found that the man was still standing in place, so he urged.
When the man heard this, he came to his senses and then hurriedly chased after him and returned home with Li Xianxian.
The yard is not big, but it is quite cozy.
As soon as the man's grandmother and mother saw the man bring back a woman, they took a step back in shock, "Enchantresse, enchantress -" The man's mother screamed in horror.
The woman's sudden reaction also startled Li Xianxian, "I'm not ......"
Before Li Xianxian could explain, he saw the woman suddenly pick up the thing in her hand and throw it directly towards Li Xianxian, "Monster, leave our house quickly!" ”
"Mother, mother, calm down!" Seeing this, the man hurriedly intervened to stop him.
"Son, my mother told you that there is no such thing, as long as you see a beautiful woman, you must hide away, how can you still bring it back!" The woman looked at the man with a look of pain and confusion, and spoke.
When the man heard this, he looked helpless, "Mother, she's not a monster!" She didn't want to come back with me because I saw that she was too dangerous for a woman in the wilderness, so I brought her back! ”
At this moment, the grandmother who was standing aside also spoke, her wrinkled face looking at death, "It seems that our family can't escape this catastrophe after all!" As long as it's a man, when he becomes an adult, he will be confused by the monsters in the mountains, and finally die a tragic death......"
"I won't hurt you, if you think I'm a monster, I'll go!" Li Xianxian hurriedly explained, and after finishing speaking, he turned around in frustration and walked outside the village.
"Hurry up, go far, never come back!" The woman still didn't give up, shouting loudly at Li Xianxian's back.
Li Xianxian secretly clenched his fists, knowing that it was useless for him to say anything now.
"Mother, can you not be like this, she is a poor woman, and besides, she still has injuries on her feet, and she can't be saved by death!"
"You save her, who will save us! Youkai are meant to harm people, and you can't have pity! As soon as the woman thought of Li Xianxian's flawless face, her heart began to tremble.
The man was naturally reluctant to give up, and looked distressed at the direction in which Li Xianxian left. However, his mother and grandmother were hit by monsters, so he could only choose to accept it unconditionally, "If it's really a demon girl, she will definitely not keep my life!" But in my heart, I still have some regrets.
But there was no way, after Li Xianxian left, the man's mother and grandmother kept mentioning the affairs of their ancestors, and the man naturally felt a little uncomfortable when he heard it.
After Li Xianxian left the village, he turned around in three steps and walked forward reluctantly.
She hadn't rested in the house for a long time, and seeing that it was going to be a month, she really wanted to get a good night's sleep. It's just that there is no way, although she doesn't know why the man's family hates her so much, but there must be a reason to think about it.
Soon after leaving the village, Li Xianxian really couldn't walk, but fortunately, the clothes on his body were dry, and at least he had to sit on the ground for a while before he could feel wet.
Her stomach kept screaming, and her mind was full of memories and thoughts of being with Wei Wujin, destroying her stubborn will little by little......
On the first night when Wei Wujin and Wei Jinyan were just approaching the border pass, the pigeons flew into Wei Wujin's camp.
Wei Jinyan also happened to be sitting inside, watching a pigeon fly in and feeling a little strange for a while, "How can there be a pigeon ...... this late night?"
As he spoke, he saw the pigeon fly straight in front of Wei Wujin. Wei Wujin raised his eyes, and his eyes were also a little surprised to look at the pigeon that suddenly appeared for some reason.
