In the early morning of the next day, the fog locked the cloud cage, the swallow warbler cried, and the soft white light reflected on the plantain tent through the treacherous branches, like the shadow of a cup bow snake. The verdant greenery with the tent as the heart turned into a wicked cold ash, exuding a slightly disgusting cold atmosphere. Chu Qi looked around, touched his nose thoughtfully, yin and yang were misplaced, and the evil spirit suddenly appeared, like lightning in the wind, even the Jialan country far away in the west was not spared.

Chu Qi's face was calm, he had no worries about life and death, but he met the girl who accompanied him halfway, how to protect her. Chu Qi straightened his clothes a little and turned around to wake up Li Xiangzhi. Through the gap in the tent, the woman rubbed her sleepy eyes and got up lazily.

"Senior sister, you're fine. ”

Li Xiangzhi hugged her hands, rubbed her shoulders up and down, frowned slightly, and the black ink on her face was squeezed together, and said, "Somehow, my whole body is sore, weak, and a little cold." ”

Chu Qi showed his face, took out a square well from his cuffs, and handed it to Li Xiangzhi: "Come, wipe your face." ”

Li Xiangzhi looked dazed, took it with both hands, wiped it on her face, and the pure white embroidered handkerchief brought a wisp of deep ink, she panicked: "Ah! What's wrong with me. ”

Chu Qi said: "It's okay, it's probably because the firewood was extinguished last night and was stained by thick smoke." ”

Li Xiangzhi raised her arm and lowered her head to sniff, "Oh", then her face turned red, and she said in a low voice: "Brother Chu Qi, yesterday... Last night... Last night...", last night I slept lightly, not very deeply, I only felt that someone was up and down on my body, and when I thought that it was Brother Chu Qi who was lying next to me, I felt ashamed. Li Xiangzhi knew that Brother Chu Qi had always treated her as a sister, and on the day his father asked him to go to bed, Brother Chu Qi had always treated each other with sincerity and reason, and he was afraid and expectant, if Brother Chu Qi wanted it, he would give his body to what if he thought of this, his face was full of redness.

Chu Qi touched his bun and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, sister, it was too cold last night, so I put a dress on you and made a noise for you." ”

Li Xiangzhi looked down, and sure enough, a white robe that had been made for a long time was on her body, and she covered her face with both hands, ashamed.

Chu Qi touched his nose, sighed lightly, took out a stack of "Maoshan Fuhualu" runes, handed it to Li Xiangzhi and instructed: "Sister, carry it with you, and don't lose it!"

Li Xiangzhi lightly committed, walked out of the banana tent, and saw an unusual shocking scene, Chu Qi didn't dare to explain in too much detail, hastily nodded one or two, and casually instructed two sentences.

"Senior, senior?" Chu Qi raised his eyes and looked around, shouting loudly, secretly screaming in his heart that it was not good, I don't know how many thousands of miles away from Zhongyuan, the continent is vast, the sky is long, and the yin and evil are reversed, and the body is weak, how to come safely. Just as he raised his eyebrows and pondered, under the dark shadow of the tree, the dark ink flashed, and the masked master appeared, and the big stone in Chu Qi's heart suddenly fell.

When they arrived in Cangye Dry River, the three of them went all the way to the dust, chasing the stars and the moon, and did not dare to stop for a while. After two days in a row, the sun and the moon were deep, a dark and cold swept the mountains and rivers, it was difficult to see the clouds, under the forest wind, it seemed that the stars were swaying, as if there were villages and wild people, Chu Qi hurriedly called his predecessors and asked him to come down. Li Xiangzhi covered her face with a single coat, her little face was frozen like white soapy soil, her lips were black and trembling, and she was pitiful and pitiful. Chu Qi patted his stiff face, quickly rubbed his hands, stroked Li Xiangzhi's soft hair, and picked her up.

Here is a village in front of the archway, mahogany is made, blue bricks and blue tiles, pine resin torches are embedded on both sides of the wooden pillars, bubbling with red flames, a gust of yin wind runs through the Suicao stone road angrily, as if pushing three people in, the masked master lifts up, disappears in place in the blink of an eye, Chu Qi is not strange, pulls Li Xiangzhi, stands motionless in front of the archway.

The firelight swayed in response to the wind, and the shaking flames happened to shine on the wooden workshop on the roof, and two large black characters were written under the cyan bottom plate: "Ah Nose".

Chu Qi's eyebrows were frowned, and he was thoughtful in his heart, Li Xiangzhi twisted his wrist, broke free from Chu Qi's palm, and walked towards the archway step by step. The two of them were only a few steps away from the entrance, and before Chu Qi could stop them, Li Xiangzhi had already stepped into the door with one foot.

There was a transparent water curtain in front of him, Li Xiangzhi's figure swayed, and her submerged body disappeared without a trace. Chu Qi was horrified in his heart, how could he care about the strange alien here, he didn't think about it, and hurriedly chased after him.

The sight flickered, the lights were bright in front of the eyes, a straight sheep intestine path was paved endlessly, rows of wooden walls and grass tiles of the huts were scattered, a copper-handled oil lamp was hung in front of the door, a string of garlic peppers was hung under the eaves, and a few dark bacon flowing with fat, a few chickens and dogs barked, and through the window, I saw a few people crowding, and the straight faction was happy and rich.

Chu Qi's eyes rolled sharply, looking for Li Xiangzhi's figure, only to see an old grandmother with a leaning body and a head full of silver threads, with a smile in her eyebrows and eyes, dark folds like carvings on her face, crutches in her right hand, and a bowl of soup in her left hand, steaming, a few green onions accompanied by golden butter, and the soup noodles showed a little brown and white flesh and bones, and the aroma was fragrant.

Li Xiangzhi was about to take it with both hands, Chu Qi strode forward, took the golden soup in the old woman's hand with a smile with one hand, said "thank you", and pressed the other hand on Li Xiangzhi's soft shoulder and shook it vigorously.

Li Xiangzhi sighed, her out-of-focus eyes gradually cleared, raised her head and looked at Chu Qi blankly, and said, "Brother Chu Qi?"

The old woman's face was stunned, and she suddenly said: "It turned out to be two brothers and sisters, little brother, wait a minute, I have a lot of soup at home, and I will give you 10,000 more." ”

"Old man, you're welcome, my brother and sister can eat a bowl together. ”

The old woman's steps were hidden, her hand on crutches trembled slightly, and she stepped up the stone steps step by step, swaying like a branch in the wind, and the camel pot pressure on her back seemed to press people to the ground, which made people worry. Halfway up the bluestone steps, the old woman turned around with difficulty, waved her hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay, the young man eats more, hehehe...", she opened her mouth and smiled, revealing a few pieces of flesh-colored gums and sallow rotten teeth.

Li Xiangzhilian lifted lightly, and was about to step forward to help, Chu Qi held her lotus root arm with one hand and said with a smile: "I'm tired." ”

Li Xiangzhi glanced at Chu Qi strangely, although she had doubts in her heart, her body stood aside obediently.

"I've been waiting, I've been waiting, I'm getting older, and my legs and feet are inconvenient. The old woman smiled and handed over another earthen bowl, which was steaming hot and fragrant.

Chu Qi couldn't help but take it, holding the soup bowl in both hands, the warmth gradually entered his heart from the palms, staring at the steaming heat and the oily fat muscles in the soup, stunned.

"Eat, eat while it's hot!" said the old woman, her eyes shining, and she persuaded earnestly.

"I'll eat later, I'll eat later. Chu Qi smiled and declined.

"Alas, you child, it doesn't taste good when it's cold. The old woman, with a hand shaped like a withered tree and like an old bark, pushed Chu Qi's big palm dragging the bottom of the bowl, and carried the bowl to his mouth, "Quick, drink." ”

Chu Qi only felt a cold rush on the back of his hand, and couldn't help but retreat with his right foot, and was about to move back to retreat, but who knew that the old woman did not give up, and followed closely, seeing that the mouth of the bowl was only a fraction away from her mouth, Chu Qi's head twisted, and he threw the bowl out of his neck.

"Pop", the bowl is torn apart, and the golden soup seeps into the soil along the cracks, leaving a wet ground, and the green green onions mixed with gold oil reflect a faint glow in the firelight.

The old woman's eyes were sharp, and she fell to the ground along the castration, and she shouted: ", this conscienceless thing!"
