Volume II, Chapter 37: Discrepancies in Intelligence
Ye Feng's words made Su Xiu slightly stunned, she looked at Luo Shuiyan, who was pulling her arm, and found that this child was also looking at her with curious eyes.
Why are these two babies so curious about themselves!
Su Xiu was depressed for a few seconds, so she had no choice but to pull Luo Shuiyan away and hold her hand tightly.
Under the curious gaze of the two, Su Xiu sighed heavily.
"Well, how can I say that?
I've known her since I was a child, and she's a strange woman with beauty and intelligence.
Kind, simple, gentle, and generous. ”
Su Xiu's face was not red and her heart was not beating, and she continued to praise: "Her strategy of taking steps to be safe is especially unstoppable.
She is simply the most perfect woman!! ”
After that, Su Xiu looked at the two.
Luo Shuiyan blushed and looked longing, as if he had seen the most beautiful thing in the world.
And Ye Feng stared at him with a strange look, staring at her heart.
"Senior Brother Liu Jing, do you like my senior sister?
For such a long time, I have heard many people's comments on my senior sister, and you are the first person to praise her. ”
Su Xiu noticed the vigilance in Ye Feng's eyes, and felt a little more relieved in his heart.
My own junior brother finally knows how to grow up, and finally knows how to be vigilant against people.
Revealing three points to others, and retaining seven points for oneself is Su Xiugou's habit.
Although this is safe, sometimes I feel a little lonely in my heart.
Maybe Gou Dao is the only one who can apply to her.
"I have known Xiu'er since childhood, and I still haven't been able to know her details and explore her depths."
Su Xiu said this, and then poked her head over and whispered to the three people in front of her: "Don't look at me Xiu'er, Xiu'er is screaming, she hates others calling her like this." ”
"That senior sister, she...... Do you have someone you like? Ye Feng said what was in his heart with some hesitation.
Seeing the two girls beside him looking at him with strange eyes, Ye Feng realized that there was something wrong with his words.
"Ah~ I didn't mean that." Ye Feng lowered his head and stopped talking.
The strange atmosphere spread into the distance with the crackling sound of firewood, and Su Xiu's hand gently patted Ye Feng's shoulder and laughed happily.
"Your sister's favorite is me!"
Su Xiu stood up and circled around the bonfire, her steps were light, as if she was stepping on a dance.
Her hands were on her chest, her face full of intoxication.
She's not lying, her favorite person is herself.
"Fart!"
Su Xiu raised her eyes and looked at Luo Shuiyan, her face was full of embarrassment, Ji Muxue and Ye Feng also looked at Luo Shuiyan with extremely strange eyes, as if they had seen some rare beast.
"Sister Xiu'er is mine!" Luo Shuiyan blushed, tugging on her matching sword in her hand, and said indignantly.
Su Xiu scratched her face with her fingers in embarrassment, and the word "fart" was a little too rude to say it in the mouth of the quiet girl.
And he doesn't seem to have done anything for Luo Shuiyan, so why is the child so dependent on himself?
"Well, let's change the subject."
Under the embarrassment, it was Ye Feng who spoke out in the end.
Although the three of them chatted nonsense, Ye Feng couldn't be interested.
It was only then that he realized that he really didn't know much about Su Xiu.
Ye Feng secretly aimed at Liu Jing, who was still chatting with the two girls, and was even more vigilant in his heart.
That senior brother seems to have a lot of plans for his own senior sister, a competitor, well, a competitor!
The stars are fleeting, and the nights are always long.
A dreamless night.
The four of them set off towards Shuili Town together, and Su Xiu borrowed the incarnation of Liu Jing to feel the excitement of traveling with his companions.
"This place is only ten miles away from Shuili Town, so be careful." Ye Feng said uneasily.
Ye Feng was a little uneasy, which was also expected by Su Xiu, after all, the homework assigned by Su Xiaoyuan was to eliminate demons.
It's normal to be upset for the first time.
Su Xiu raised his eyes and looked ahead, there were some villages in the fields in the distance, but no matter how he looked at it, it seemed to be a little bleak.
"What are we going to do?" Ji Muxue nervously held the sword in her hand and looked around in a panic.
A cold wind blew in, and a scream was heard.
Hearing only the "sonorous" sound, Ye Feng drew his sword and ran to Ji Muxue's side, nervously looking towards the small mound that was rising not far away.
A fat rat burst out of the soil and was cut in half by Luo Shuiyan's sword.
Everyone wiped the sweat from their heads, as if they had experienced a thrilling game.
"It turned out to be a rat and it scared me." Ji Muxue wiped the sweat from her forehead and let out a heavy sigh of relief.
In the weird atmosphere just now, she thought something terrible would run out.
It's like the terrifying monster beast written in some ancient books of the sect, the kind that eats people and doesn't spit out bones.
"Everyone, be careful."
Ye Feng remembered that Su Xiu had taught the fourth and fifth articles of his "Gou Zi Law Decision".
We must always be sober and not be confused by the superficial phenomena of things.
Be cautious and not reckless.
Su Xiu stretched out her hand and nodded her forehead, stretched out her finger and pointed into the distance and said:
"Anyway, let's go to the front village and ask about the situation first."
Ten miles, in Ye Feng's eyes, it was just a trip of incense time, and everyone quickly moved to the front of the village, and the bleak feeling in the village made Ye Feng frown slightly.
This village is decent, not very large, but there are twenty or thirty families.
Now the sun is just shining, it should be shortly afternoon, but there is no smoke to be seen.
"Senior Brother Liu, what do you think?"
Ye Feng lingered at the entrance of the village, not daring to enter for a long time, for fear that a wrong decision would lead to the destruction of the entire team.
"Although we haven't arrived in Mizunashi Town yet, this is already the boundary of Mizunashi Town.
Since there are demons raging, people must be panicking.
So you can't look at it with common sense. ”
The three of them nodded, only to see that after thinking for a few breaths, Su Xiu stretched out his hand and grabbed a handful of soil, put it on the tip of his nose, sniffed it, and continued:
"There is a smell of dirt in the soil, I am afraid that it rained a few days ago, and demons usually like to act on rainy days, because the rain will hide their whereabouts."
Clapping his hands, Su Xiu cast his eyes ahead, where was a mud house that looked a little old.
The roof was covered with red tiles, and smoke rose from one of the chimneys.
Su Xiu made a color to Ye Feng, Ye Feng instantly understood, led Ji Muxue to walk forward together, and knocked on the door of the mud room.
I waited for a long time before I saw someone open the door.
It was an old woman in her seventies, with a dragon's head staff in her hand and a pair of cloudy eyes, looking at the two people standing outside the room with some fear.
Ye Feng said softly: "Grandma, don't be afraid, we are disciples of the Xiaoyao Immortal Family, and we are here to eliminate demons, can you tell me why the village is so desolate?" ”
"Ah~ It turned out to be the immortal master of the Xiaoyao Immortal Family, hurry up, come in quickly!"
The old woman's enthusiasm made Ye Feng a little surprised, maybe it was the first time he went down the mountain, and the change of identity made him a little uncomfortable, and he walked a little fluttering.
"Immortal masters, drink tea, drink tea!."
As he spoke, he lifted the teapot and poured water into the cup.
The old woman's enthusiasm made Ye Feng smile on his face, and he hurriedly grabbed the teapot and said with a smile: "Grandma, let's just come by ourselves." ”
first poured a cup of tea and put it in front of the old woman, and casually poured another cup of tea for Su Xiu.
Ye Feng's operation made Su Xiu score a full score, and being humble outside is the way of a gentleman.
"Grandma, are you so old, do you live alone?"
"Yes, the old man died early, and his children have become a family and do not live here.
My wife and son are physically tough, and I don't want to cause trouble to my son, so I just feel comfortable in this village alone. ”
Su Xiu took a sip of white water, looked towards the depths of the room, and asked casually:
"Grandma~ Is it because there is a monster scourge in the village that the village is so bleak?"
"Some time ago, I didn't know where the monster came from, and I didn't eat anything else, so I just stared at this pig.
We, the peasant families, raise pigs very expensively, and we hope that we can eat some meat when we kill them at the end of the year.
You say, "The pigs have been eaten, and this is the life of the peasant family!" ”
The old woman said, Ye Feng was actually red-eyed.
Su Xiu almost forgot that before Ye Feng went up the mountain, his family was also a farmer, if it weren't for the demon slaughtering the village, he must have been running happily in the fields.
However, people have the number of lives, and Ye Feng's fate is this calamity, which also proves that the immortal path is the way he will take in the future.
"This pig has been eaten all, but in case, there will be no pigs by then, what will happen if the monster eats people?
In the village, some people left the border, and some went to the town, where there were many people and it was more comfortable. ”
After listening to the old woman's words, Su Xiu fell into deep thought.
In the old woman's mouth, although the monster ate some pigs, it was not to the point of eating people.
This seems to be a little different from what Su Xiaoyuan said in his letter.
Su Xiaoyuan mentioned in the letter that the monster was originally in charge of another sect, but the demon escaped.
I heard that there is a lot of killing there, and the evil done is not something that can be said in a word, and when you reach the boundary of this Shuili Town, you will eat pigs instead?
Could it be that this is the Kyushu version of oranges born in Huainan and oranges born in Huaibei?
I can't think right!
The information given by Su Xiaoyuan has been certified by the sect and will not be wrong, so where is this difference?
Su Xiu set her eyes on the old woman who had been smiling kindly, and her fingers lightly tapped on the table, making a few crisp sounds, "Senior Brother Ye, Senior Sister Ji, go and ask elsewhere if anyone has seen the appearance of this monster?" ”
"Yes."
Ye Feng led Ji Muxue out in a hurry, Su Xiu narrowed her eyes and asked the old woman with a smile:
"Grandma, when did this monster haunt here?"
The old woman thought about it, and did not hesitate much, but listened to her.
"It was about half a month ago, and at that time it was fierce, and I heard that I had to eat more than a dozen pigs almost every day."
The old woman's expression was a little exaggerated, but the old man usually had a lot of nerves, and it was possible for him to speak dangerously.
