17 Chapter XIII
It was very strange for the son to leave this man.
Over the past few days, Ruoyi has felt more and more that this is not an ordinary person, he does not cultivate immortals, nor is he a demon, but he can light the firewood on the ground with his hands. When they traveled, they didn't come across a market or a village where they could buy and sell anything. If one only picks some herbs along the way, he applies them to the wound. Whenever Qiansu's injury recurred, whether it was vomiting blood or fever, Zili could always come up with a panacea to suppress it.
He always said that he wanted her to be noisy, but every time he saw something strange and pulled him to the heavens and the earth, he would not interrupt her silently. After going on the road with him, Ruoyi is not afraid of the cold at night even if she doesn't cover the quilt every night, and she can sleep peacefully every night - Ruoyi naturally won't think it's caused by the sudden explosion of her character. The only explanation was that someone was keeping her warm at night.
There is no one else in this person's choice, so it is naturally Zili.
These things, although they are small, but he does them without saying a word, which will make her feel like she is being spoiled. Ruoyi is very confused, obviously he is a person he doesn't know...... Could it be that he sent her on her way?
Was it sent by Zitan? Or was it sent by the sky?
And who was the mysterious masked man a few days ago? He was dressed very similarly to this young man, could it be that they were the same person?
Ruoyi secretly speculated. Suddenly hearing the sound of spatulas colliding in front of her, she looked up and saw a curling smoke rising in the distance, it was not a family!
If she was happy, she felt that she was smelling all over her body after spending several nights in the suburbs, and if she could live in someone's house tonight, it would be beautiful to take a comfortable hot bath.
At that moment, he threw away those thoughts, quickened his pace and walked forward, bypassing a bend in the mountain, and finally saw a house in front of him, and there was a word "stack" hanging high on the roof. It's still an inn! Ruoyi was even more pleased, and turned his head and called: "Zili, hurry up, there is an inn ahead, we finally don't have to sleep in the wild tonight!" โ
Zili looked at the inn from afar, and said with a slight frown: "It's still early, you can still travel more today." โ
"But......" Ruoyi said with a look of reluctance, "I finally met the inn." Zili was silent, and Ruoyi said cautiously, "We can go on the road earlier tomorrow!" โ
โโฆโฆ Good. โ
With permission, Ruoyi happily ran to the inn, but he didn't notice Zili's frowning eyebrows.
The inn was opened by a kind middle-aged couple, named Aunt Chang and Uncle Chang. They had a son of sixteen or seventeen years old, who was so sick that he could not walk on his feet, could not see, and could not speak, like a living dead, and lived every day by feeding him some rice porridge by his parents, so pale and thin that it seemed to break if he touched it at the slightest touch.
If you sigh at the impermanence of the world, you are helpless.
Aunt Chang and Uncle Chang were very enthusiastic about hospitality, and when they saw Ruo Feng and dust entering the store, they immediately came up to greet her, and Aunt Chang beckoned her to go upstairs to see the room, and Uncle Chang boiled water for her and cooked. When Ruoyi put his luggage and Qiansu in his room and went downstairs to eat, Zili slowly walked in.
"Where did Zi Li go?"
According to his temperament, he would not answer her, but today Zili uncharacteristically put the sword on the table and said, "Wipe the sword." โ
This murderous action made Aunt Chang, who came to serve the food, shudder.
Ruoyi smiled awkwardly: "Well, he's a little cold-tempered, but he's a good-hearted person." Zili glanced at her lightly and did not speak. Ruoyi turned his head and left the road, "I helped you choose a room just now, it's opposite me, why don't you go up and have a look first, and change if you don't like it." โ
"I don't like it." Zili immediately said, "I want to live in your room." โ
"Okay, let's just change." If you don't care much.
Zili frowned, and said, "Just live in one room." โ
The corners of Ruoyi's mouth twitched, what happened to this kid today, is he expressing any dissatisfaction with the guest house......
Aunt Chang put down the dish and smiled: "It's okay for a small couple to live in one room, women, there's nothing wrong with letting go of these things after getting married." โ
Hearing this, Ruo's face turned red, and he hurriedly explained: "Well, no, isn't it...... He, he's my brother. โ
"Brother" glanced at Ruoyi quickly, and her eyes were sharp with murderous aura, which made her feel a slight chill in her heart. Aunt Chang smiled: "Since they are brothers and sisters, they arrived when they were young, but now that they have grown up, it is better to pay more attention." โ
Zili frowned: "What does it have to do with you?" โ
Aunt Chang was so frightened by this gaze that her hands trembled, and she hid in the back kitchen with a dry smile. If you want to say something fair, but you feel that your relationship is half-baked with him, it is not easy to speak. I had to sigh silently and bury my head in eating.
As for sleeping in one room or something, if he is all angry and angry.
It's night.
Ruoyi took a comfortable bath and put on the cotton and linen clothes prepared for her by Aunt Chang. I also showed Qiansu the wound - worthy of being a monster, the wound healed quickly, and there was Zili's medicine to regulate, if it was not expected, Qiansu would be able to turn back into a human form after five days.
But why hasn't she woken up yet? Ruoyi touched its head worriedly to find out if it had hit something.
At this moment, the door creaked open, and Zili walked in without saying a word. Ruoyi stared at him and said strangely: "It's so late, is there something wrong?" โ
Zili glanced at her and said, "I'm here to rest." โ
Ruo was stunned for a moment, and then said weakly: "Although I'm embarrassed, I still can't help but want to ask, what are you making trouble today?" โ
The son was silent.
Ruo pondered his words for a moment and said: "If you really dislike the guest house so much, in fact, if you talk to me, I won't force you." You can camp alone and we'll meet tomorrow morning, or you can just part ways with me...... I can't stop you. Why bother, why embarrass others so much? โ
"Finished?"
"Uh...... Hmm. โ
"Sleep."
Ruoyi was stunned and watched Zi Qiyi sit behind the door, closing his eyes and resting. She was a little dazed.
Zili had bad intentions for her, so he insisted on sleeping in a room with her, such a reason would be acceptable, but this person clearly didn't have that kind of thought, but he still had to sleep on the cold floor here...... Could it be that he has masochistic tendencies?
slept until midnight, if she suddenly felt a chill on her back, she suddenly woke up cold.
The nights in Kyushu are very cold, if you know it early in the morning, but since you leave the same road with your son, even in the suburbs, there is no blanket to protect against the cold, and Ruoyi still sleeps quite comfortably every night. I slept in the thick mattress of the inn today, how could it be cold?
She opened her eyes in a daze, and was surprised to find someone beside her, she immediately made a gesture to shout, but the person immediately covered her mouth and nose, and said softly, "Shhhhhhhhh โ
If you hear that this voice is Zili, you will be relieved a little. nodded obediently, signaling that he already knew, and asked him to let go. But Zili still covered her mouth tightly, and if he thought he didn't understand what he meant, he gently patted the back of his hand with his hand.
Zili just silently pressed her into his arms.
All right. If you think about it, cover it. But I had to tell her why. She looked up and saw Zilin's clean face, his eyes shining in the darkness of the night, staring straight at the door, like a predator waiting for an opportunity.
At this moment, Ruoyi couldn't help but be stunned, and the figure of the sky flashed in his mind again. This look is so similar to his. There is a hint of fragrance wafting through the tip of the nose, like a cold spring. If you tremble, this is the smell of Cangxiao! That day, he rescued her from the castle tower, and she smelled it on his back!
She eagerly wanted to pull off Zili's hand, and wanted to ask him what was the relationship between him and Cangxiao, and whether he saved herself when she was chased by the monster with a human head and a tiger a few days ago.
Suddenly, a small "click" sounded. It's like something is fiddling with the door. If you are nervous, look at the door.
A faint light from the hallway leaked through the crack in the door, and she saw a blowpipe slowly insert through the crack in the door. Then a puff of smoke wafted out of the blowpipe.
Drugged! Black shop!
If you react suddenly. That's why Zili doesn't want her to live here? That's why he insisted on sharing a room with her? I don't know what kind of expression I should show for a while.
But how did he know that this inn was not normal? Forget it, now is not the time to think about such a thing. If you think about it, let's wait until the matter is understood, and then ask him well.
There was silence outside the room for a while, the door opened slightly, and soon closed again, if you heard Aunt Chang say: "Wait, I see that man is not so easy to deal with, let's be cautious." โ
"What are you afraid of?" Chang Bo said, "Two human beings have the ability to reach the sky, how can you and me?" I still want them both to be stronger, the stronger they are, the more chewy the meat will be! ...... hiss" he said, swallowing his saliva.
The voice of a serpent spitting out a letter was like a hairbreak in my heart. Zili leaned his lips closer to Ruoyi's ear and said, "Hold your breath." โ
Stop breathing immediately.
"Squeak." With a thud, the door was slowly pushed open. Zili's hand holding the sword tightened. Chang Bo stepped into the door.
Between the lightning and flint, if she felt a cold light flashing in front of her, she squinted her eyes subconsciously, and when she opened her eyes again, she saw Chang Bo's eyes burst out, blood surging from his neck, and he fell to the ground without a sound.
Monster...... The youkai was killed by him so easily?
"Wife!" Aunt Chang outside the door suddenly howled, her eyes were blood-red, and she exclaimed: "Be careful!" She's going to be the real person! โ
Aunt Chang's hair fell loosely, and she suddenly rose into the air, broke through the ceiling and flew directly out of the inn. Zili didn't stop for a moment, jumped up his breath, chased after her and killed the hole. If you are in a hurry, you will run to the window to observe the movements of the two.
I saw that Aunt Chang's body was getting bigger and bigger, slowly elongating.
It's a snake spirit! She's all black, and she's twice as tall as this inn! The waist is as strong as a century-old tree. The two eyes are as big as lanterns.
"Shhh She spat out the letter to Zili, opened her mouth and asked him to go. Zili jumped and narrowly avoided it. If you look at it and be shocked, such a big monster, the human sword will not work against it at all.
The only thing that can subdue it is to pierce its life and kill it. However, where is the snake demon's life!
If you look anxiously, you don't know that the danger behind you is slowly approaching.
"Bang!" The sound of a stool falling to the ground startled her, and she glanced back vigilantly, but she didn't have time to see anything clearly, and suddenly felt a strong force on her neck, and she was pinched and lifted by her neck!
Her face was flushed, and she saw the scene in the house through the moonlight outside the window, only to see that the seriously injured Qiansu seemed to be lying on the ground in great pain at this time, and there was a stool next to it, and the sound was made by her knocking the stool down. Chang Bo, who was killed by Zili, was still lying stiffly on the ground, and the person who attacked her was actually the son of the couple who was sick in bed!
At this time, there was a sickly flush on his pale face, and watching Ruoyi slowly suffocate seemed to make him very excited, and his breathing was rapid and loud.
Zili is still entangled with the demonized Aunt Chang, no one will come to save her at this time, she must save herself. Ruoyi struggled hard, his hands and feet danced wildly, but this guy's arms were extremely long, and no matter how Ruoyi waved his hands and feet, he couldn't hit him at all.
The lack of oxygen made Ruoyi's eyes more and more dizzy, and she was both scared and angry in her heart - why the fuck these monsters kept getting along with her neck! Are humans really easy to bully?
The anger in his heart swelled, if he thought that the psychology of scolding the street was so strong, he suddenly felt a lot more saliva in his mouth, and he didn't think about anything at the moment, and a mouthful of spit sprayed directly on the demon's face.
At first, the youkai didn't react until the spit on his forehead slowly flowed into his eyes, and he suddenly howled in pain and threw Ruoyi out of the window.
When he was thrown out, Ruoyi saw that the giant black snake in the distance also suddenly raised his head to the trombone, as if he had been hit hard, and then curled up in pain. When I looked back, the monster in the house was gone.
It's โกโก!
In this way, the weakness of this black snake is in its eyes!
Its life is its eyes!
If you want to shout out loudly to tell Zili, you suddenly find that your head is about to hit the ground. Even if it's only on the second floor, if you hit your head on the ground, you won't be able to escape the end of a brain burst!
She...... Will die! No, she doesn't want to die yet, who will save her......
Help me!
"Heaven!"
