But even if he returned to the village, the snake venom on his body had not been unraveled, and he was still dragging it half-dead, and it seemed that he would not be able to get rid of it for a few days.

The village chief didn't want to die, Fang Xiaoxiao understood very well, but what she couldn't understand was why the village chief suffered such a big thing as snake venom, but their village didn't leak any rumors, and they still looked secretive?

Fang Xiaoxiao asked the doubts in her heart, and this time Li Yulan answered very cheerfully.

"Because our family is kind to the county magistrate, the county magistrate once promised that as long as my father is still the village chief, he will not recruit people from our village as conscription."

"Conscription?"

"Yes, our forced labor here is particularly heavy, and many villages have become desperate because of forced labor."

"Quite a few villages? There should be no more than ten villages below a county seat. ”

"We have a lot of refugees here, and it doesn't matter if there is less labor in the village, just stuff the refugees in. Many villages changed their names and became refugees, but the original villagers were excluded and persecuted. Well, that's all I know, remember you promised me. ”

"What do you have to do as a conscript?"

"Get out, I don't know, now, you get out!"

Li Yulan was annoyed by Fang Xiaoxiao's question, and shook the stool to drive Fang Xiaoxiao out.

Fang Xiaoxiao stared at Li Yulan for a while, and finally put the knife into the sheath, opened the door and went out.

When the maids in the courtyard saw Fang Xiaoxiao coming out, they all greeted her with a smile, looking very kind.

Fang Xiaoxiao also smiled at these maids, and then walked out of the courtyard generously.

The scenery in front of her changed rapidly, and in a few steps, she changed places again.

Scorching lotus flowers, pavilions out of the water.

One stem is lonely and green, and the two shadows share dividends.

What catches the eye is full of lotus flowers.

In the midst of the flowers stood a young man in a wedding dress.

I don't know when, it was almost dusk, and the young man turned his head and smiled at her gently, like the most beautiful scenery in the world.

It's just a pity that Fang Xiaoxiao is not a person who is good at appreciating beauty.

When she saw this person again, her first reaction was to be on guard, and her second reaction was to observe the terrain, thinking about whether she would be able to run away if she ran away.

The young man carried a basket with some lotus pods and lotus flowers in it, as if he had been picking lotuses before.

He walked slowly, his feet on the water like a ladder, and walked very smoothly.

Fang Xiaoxiao was also standing in the center of the lake at this time, but she was standing on a platform like a lotus leaf, where there were stone tables and stone benches, and teacups and snacks were all available.

The young man arrived in front of Fang Xiaoxiao in a few steps, and his smile was very kind and happy towards Fang Xiaoxiao.

"I'm getting married today, and the guests are watching, am I okay?"

“？” Fang Xiaoxiao's face was full of question marks, and she didn't quite understand how to answer this, but seeing that this person who was suspected of being an evil god, she thought about it for a while, and still replied.

"Yes, the bride should be very happy."

The young man smiled and put the flower basket in his hand on the stone table, beckoning Fang Xiaoxiao to come and sit.

"That's fine, after all, marriage is a major event in life, and I'm very nervous."

I didn't see it.

After the young man sat down, he fiddled with the lotus flowers and lotus canopy in the basket, fiddled with them for a while, and tied them into a bunch.

"This lotus flower canopy looks pleasing to people, you see, guest, I put it in my new house, okay?"

"It's good."

The young man didn't seem to hear her perfunctory, but smiled innocently, put the bouquet in his hand back into the basket, and then raised his hand and picked up an unopened lotus flower that had been abandoned on the stone table.

"This lotus flower is sown by me personally, it is full of my heart, and I want to come to my future lady to see it, and I will be happy."

Saying this, he stretched out his hand and handed the lotus flower to Fang Xiaoxiao.

"The lotus flower is beautiful and useful, can the girl be happy?"

The lotus flower was handed to Fang Xiaoxiao's eyes, and her gaze slowly moved from the young man's smiling eyes to the lotus.

Look carefully, this lotus flower is budding and waiting to be released, the fragrance of the wisps is elegant and sweet, it seems to be no different from an ordinary lotus flower, but Fang Xiaoxiao did not stretch out his hand.

She returned her gaze to the boy, and her expression was a little apologetic.

"What Mrs. Ling will inevitably cherish in the future, I took it, but it is not suitable."

The boy listened, but did not reply.

"Why, good things should be shared."

"Since this is the case, then please give this lotus flower to Mrs. Ling for me, and wish the two of you a hundred years of good togetherness."

"So, this lotus, you accepted it?"

The young man and Fang Xiaoxiao looked at each other, and for a while, the atmosphere seemed a little depressed.

The young man smiled and held the long lotus stem, obviously it was a handing action, but at that moment, the lotus in his hand seemed to have turned into a long sword that would spit poisonous letters, pointing straight at Fang Xiaoxiao's throat.

After being silent for a long time, Fang Xiaoxiao slowly took a step back.

The young man seemed to be a little puzzled, the smile on his face faded a little, and there were doubts in his eyes.

"The beauty of the lotus, how can it accommodate a third person, this lotus, I can't help it."

The boy thought about it, and finally took back the lotus.

"It's my thoughts, that's what the girl said."

The young man tapped the bud with his fingers, watching it swing in his hand, and slowly, a smile appeared on his face again.

"It's a good time for the guests to come, it's about to be an auspicious time, so they should dress up and dress up."

Fang Xiaoxiao still shook his head at this.

"I'm fine, comfortable. And after I attended the wedding, I was ready to go down the mountain, which was more convenient. ”

was rejected, and the other party was not angry, but just sighed with some regret.

"That's it, that's a pity, the girl is very good-looking, suitable for wearing gorgeous clothes and beautiful ornaments."

"I'm just an ordinary hunter, you're overrated."

"Huh? So does the girl like weapons? That's a really special hobby. I have a lot of equipment here that is suitable for girls, and even the magic weapons used by cultivators are also quite a lot, so the girl can be happy. ”

"No, it's useless."

"It's already a good thing that the girl can come to our couple's wedding, and I'm still willing to wear one or two pieces of equipment."

"I'm just a little learned, my lord, your equipment is not suitable for me."

Again, the boy felt a little sorry.

"Does that girl have what she wants? Or is there something distressing about it? At first sight, I really wanted to give some gifts to the girl. ”

Fang Xiaoxiao shook his head, not at all moved by this.

"I'm living a comfortable life, everything is going well, and I don't have anything I want."

"That's ...... What a shame. ”

The sun was sinking very quickly, the sun was setting, the night was falling, and at some point, some river lamps floated on the surface of the lake, illuminating the pond transparently.
