Chapter 42: The Sword is Missing

The white strange man looked at the Chuyang Village under his feet so coldly, and at this moment, thousands of ghost shadows were eating on the happy trees in the village, only to see that the petals on the happy trees that were originally bright like blood began to turn white. Gradually, the countless red petals on the tree turned into a piercing white flower, and when all the petals of the tree turned white, countless big-bellied ghosts floated from within the canopy, swaying like a full meal.

The white monster in the sky raised his hand and threw out an incense burner, which floated in the air and spun on its own, and many ghosts screamed and were sucked into the incense burner.

Checking the incense burner in his hand, the white strange man showed a hideous smile, and then with a wave of his hand, a black gas pierced the night sky, flew straight into the bride's house, and then disappeared like smoke and dust.

The moonlight in the sky shone on the earth again, and the whole village returned to its original calm, except for the joyful trees.

And Mo Chen, who witnessed the whole process in secret, quietly closed the door, and returned to the bed lightly to sit down, secretly thinking about something in his heart.

There was no word all night, and when the sky turned bright, there was a gentle knock on the door, Mochen opened his eyes, got out of bed and opened the door, and it was Lilac.

"Brother Mo, did you sleep well last night?" Lilac asked with a smile when she saw Mo Chen open the door.

"Well, it's comfortable, it's been a long time since I've rested like this, thank you. Mochen stretched, and then walked out of the room.

Lilac pouted when she heard this, and said coquettishly: "I told you not to be so polite, I will ignore you if you do this again." ”

"Haha" Mo Chen laughed, and then looked around, the happy trees in the yard have returned to their original appearance at this moment, and the petals on the crown are still red and hung all over the treetops, if it weren't for the strange scene that Mo Chen witnessed last night, anyone who sees them will only treat them as ordinary trees.

Mo Chen walked into a happy tree, reached out and touched the trunk, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, he reached out and broke off a branch, carefully observed the fracture, but found nothing.

"Brother Mo, what are you doing?" Seeing Mo Chen's actions, Lilac felt a little strange in her heart.

"Oh, nothing. Mo Chen threw away the branch in his hand, turned to Lilac and said, "I slept comfortably last night, but I don't want to rush to travel, I plan to stay for a few more days, is it okay?"

"Of course you can!" Lilac's eyes lit up, her heart was very happy, and she hurriedly agreed.

"Baby, do you want to stay for a few more days?" a hoarse voice sounded, and it was Xi Niang who walked out of the house on crutches.

"Yes, mother-in-law, I want to stay for a few more days, I don't know if it's inconvenient. Mo Chen smiled and spoke.

"It's convenient, you can live for a few days if you want, the wife doesn't have any other skills, and you can still add a pair of dishes and chopsticks to the house. Xi Niang suddenly smiled, and the wrinkles on her face squeezed together, making her look even older.

"Thank you very much. As soon as Mo Chen arched his hand, Lilac on the side pouted, "Brother Mo, you call my mother mother-in-law, then I'm not your aunt?"

"Hahaha" Mo Chen laughed, and the bride on the side said directly: "Xiang'er, my mother is old, and she has her own opinions, so you don't need to care about so much red tape." ”

"Hehe, I'm joking, Brother Gomo, I'll take you to the village. Lilac grimaced, then took Mochen's hand and dragged him out of the door.

"Alas, this kid still can't change this childish temperament. Xi Niang looked at the two of them leaving, and sighed with kindness on her face, and then she seemed to think of something, her face changed, and she turned around and went back to the house.

Chuyang Village is very small, so small that there are not even decent roads, there are just winding paths connecting families, and these paths are not known for some reason, all of them are very muddy, Lilac and Mochen have to jump around the village to find a clean place to settle, and if they don't pay attention to it, it is a foot of mud.

Although the road is not easy to walk, it is nothing to Mo Chen, he is only one foot away from Ning Yuan Realm, even if it is this kind of muddy path, he will not feel difficult, and then look at Lilac, she has completely adapted to this kind of road, and when she walks, she is extremely proficient, and it doesn't look effortless.

As he was walking, Mo Chen suddenly asked, "Haven't the shoes been changed yet, why haven't you worn them?" He just found out that Lilac was still wearing her old shoes on her feet, and she hadn't replaced them with her beloved shoes.

Before, Mo Chen's heart had no time to care about him because of last night's incident, but at this time, because of the muddy path, he noticed it.

"It's changed, I changed it overnight last night, but my mother didn't let me wear it, I think I'm afraid of getting dirty. Lilac pouted back, apparently not wanting to wear it.

"Oh, yes. Mo Chen smiled, didn't ask too much, and was walking, when a middle-aged man in front of him walked towards him from a distance.

The man looked ordinary, with a scruffy beard on his face, and he looked a little sloppy, he was carrying a sack on his back, which was so bulging that he didn't know what it contained, and when he saw the two of them, he put the bag aside and waved at the two of them from afar.

"Little Lilac, come here. He shouted, Lilac turned his head to look, and immediately smiled, "Uncle Sword!" Lilac also shouted, and then pulled Mochen forward.

After walking in, the man was the first to ask curiously, "Little Lilac, who is this person?"

"Uncle Jian, he is a foreigner, he passed by our village and stayed at my house for one night. Lilac returned with a smile.

Mo Chen arched his hand on the side and said, "It's under Mo Chen." ”

"The sword is missing. The man also gave his name to him.

This name is really good, cheap and lacking, Mo Chen secretly complained in his heart.

"Brother Mo, Uncle Sword knows how to practice swordsmanship, and he will accompany me to practice swordsmanship on weekdays, but I'm stupid, I can't learn it all the time, you two can discuss it when you have time." Ding Xiang introduced, but before Mo Chen could speak, Jian Que spoke directly.

"Little Lilac, did he really stay at your house last night?" Jian Que seemed to be a little surprised in his tone, he looked at Mo Chen, and a trace of caution flashed in his eyes.

This slightest vigilance didn't hide from Mo Chen's eyes, but Mo Chen didn't have to think about it to understand that it must have something to do with last night.

"yes, why am I lying to you. Lilac replied

Hearing Lilac's answer, Jian Que said directly: "Lilac, I suddenly remembered that I still have urgent matters, so you two should go around by yourself first, I can't accompany you to practice swords today." With that, he grabbed the sack on the ground and walked away quickly.

"Uncle Jian, what's wrong, how does it feel a little strange. Looking at the figure of Jian Que leaving, Lilac muttered to herself.

Mo Chen smiled: "People have said that there is an emergency, what's so strange about this." ”

Lilac shook her head, "No, even if there is something to do, Uncle Sword will always take some time to teach me to practice swords, why ...... today?"

Mochen patted her head and smiled: "You're a sweetheart, let's go, go shopping with me again, the sun is just right today, it's just right for a break." ”
