At this moment, far away at the top of Jingshan, at the entrance of the big cave, an old man dressed in white is leaning obliquely under a crooked neck tree, and the dry tobacco pouch in his hand is smoking without a match, and the sound of "let's da, let's da" is particularly abrupt on the empty mountaintop.

This old man was the old white in the mouth of Gongsun Huan before, the great elder of the Shadow Clan, in front of him, a pile of burned firewood, a large pile of black and white ashes proved that he had been here for a long time.

"Old man, is this enough?"

Jiang Zhu was dressed in a simple gray coarse cloth shirt, holding a dying hare in his hand, and a large bundle of dead branches walked towards Lao Bai from a distance and asked.

Lao Bai didn't respond, only raised his eyelids lightly and glanced at her, and continued his dry tobacco pouch, "Let's click, let's click" The sound was endless.

Jiang Zhu saw that Lao Bai didn't care about her, and she didn't mean to be angry, so she walked to the fire that had been extinguished and put down the dead branches, wiped the fine sweat on her forehead with her mud-stained sleeves, threw the half-dead rabbit to the ground, and sat straight on a big stone on the side to rest, her trouser legs pulled high, revealing a small white calf.

They had been here for four or five days, and the old man only said that his name was Lao Bai, but he did not tell Jiang Zhu what his surname was, where and what he did, and why he arrested her or saved her. Jiang Zhu went from being scared and worried at the beginning to getting used to it later, Lao Bai took her to live in a cave, except for forcing her to learn a series of rough jobs such as hunting, cooking, and making fires, but he didn't do anything to her.

After getting along for a few days, Jiang Zhu found that this old man seemed to have a strange temper, but he was actually quite good to her, seeing that her clothes were dirty and torn, and he didn't know where he went to get two sets of brand new clothes for her to change into.

Lao Bai taught her to spear fish in the stream, how to catch hares and pheasants with sharpened bamboo tips, and how to wrap pheasants in soil and roast them over fire, and then peel off the charred soil to reveal the white-flowered chicken...... This is Jiang Zhu's first contact with these, and he didn't think it tasted good at first, until he was hungry for two meals before eating it, and it was quite delicious.

"Why don't you talk to me?"

Jiang Zhu supported his chin with one hand, put the other hand on his knee, looked sideways at Lao Bai, and muttered in his mouth.

There are just the two of them on this mountain, except for what he has to say, Lao Bai almost doesn't speak, he can hold back, but Jiang Zhu can't hold back, he should have been missing for many days, right? I don't know if Uncle Jiang and the Qin Mansion have come over, with her own strength, she knows that she can't leave this mountain.

This time, Lao Bai still didn't look at her, knocked the dry tobacco bag in his hand on the stone next to him, and then put it in his mouth and continued to smoke it, his eyes looking forward, a little sluggish.

"Old man, what the hell are you going to do to talk to me? Or, what are you going to do to get me out of here? ”

Jiang Zhu stared at Lao Bai for a long time, then simply turned his body around, faced him, and asked with a frowning eyebrow.

"Want to leave?"

After a long time, Lao Bai finally looked back at her and asked a question without a head.

"Nonsense!"

Jiang Zhu blurted out, her previous cultivation had been completely wiped out by the torture of the past few days, and she was a little angry, "I said, don't you want to leave?" In this inaccessible place, there will be wild beasts at night, and besides, I have been away for so long, my family will be in a hurry. ”

Jiang Zhu said and said, thinking of his mother and father, as well as his grandfather's family, he was probably afraid that he had already turned over Luozhou City, right? It's a pity that she doesn't know where this mountain is and how far it is from Luoju.

Thinking of this, her eyes moistened a little, and she wanted to cry.

"Why did the old man leave?"

Lao Bai turned his head and looked at her strangely, his long eyebrows hanging down at the corners of his eyes, jumping and jumping, looking a little funny.

Jiang Zhu rolled his eyes helplessly.

These days, this self-proclaimed old man is always like this, always able to provoke her anger in various ways.

Just imagine, what a calm girl she Jiang Zhu is, when did she become a firecracker because of this inexplicable old man?

"What do you want, old man?"

Jiang Zhu fell on his back on the big stone in dejection, his beautiful face was facing the sky, and he closed his eyes irritably.

"The old man saved you, you little girl, why don't you know anything about it?"

As he spoke, Lao Bai took the dry tobacco pouch out of his mouth, knocked it on the stone beside him casually, and then put it back into his mouth. Then he stood up, walked leisurely to the cave with his hands behind his back, and the fluttering words drifted into Jiang Zhu's ears with the wind, "Roast that rabbit, the old man is hungry." ”

When Jiang Zhu turned his head, where was Lao Bai's figure?

She rolled her eyes in the direction of Lao Bai, this old man, she has been tormenting her these days, obviously a talented girl who lives in the boudoir, but she was forced to become a mountain village woman.

That's it, she's hungry too, just do it, it's not like she hasn't done it.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhu turned over and climbed up, and lit the fire that was about to be extinguished with a pile of hay at the entrance of the cave, and then set it on top of the pile of dead branches that she had brought back just now and ignited it together. Then he found a small earthen pot in the cave, brought it to a place not far from the entrance of the cave, and took it back to the clean stream, and then put it on the fire to burn.

Glancing at the rabbit that was about to breathe next to the fire, Jiang Zhu couldn't help but sigh, and walked back to the cave to find a small dagger, which Lao Bai gave her to kill small animals.

"Tutu, Tutu, I'm sorry, I'm also forced....."

She held a dagger in one hand, grabbed the fur on the rabbit's neck with the other, looked at the artery under the hare's chin, and slashed down, gushing out with warm blood, almost splashing on Jiang Zhu's body, and her legs were weakly kicked a few times before she moved. She couldn't bear to look at it directly, and turned her head to the side, always feeling strange in her heart.

Think about the beginning, no, think a few days ago, she didn't even enter the kitchen at home, let alone bloody and rough work like killing chickens and rabbits, and now she has only been a few days, and she can already watch a small life come to an end in her own hands, and she has become an executioner?

I guess no one will believe it, right?

She kept despising herself in her heart. New book bag network

"Gollum, Gollum...."

The water in the pot behind him was boiling, Jiang Zhu turned his head to take a look, directly put the rabbit in his hand into the pot, rolled around in the boiling water, and then lifted the rabbit's hind legs, dragged the rabbit out and put it on a clean stone slab, and squeezed it down from head to tail, and suddenly, the rabbit's white meat was exposed.

Jiang Zhu's movements are very skillful, and in less than a quarter of an hour, she actually took care of a hare, a few catties in size, of course, she threw away all the rabbit's internal organs, because she never ate animal internal organs, and she didn't want to clean animal internal organs.

He cut down two unknown branches, sharpened the four feet of the rabbit in a cross shape, set it on the fire, and roasted it over and over low heat, and after half an hour, a roasted rabbit was made brown and fragrant.

"Lao Bai, it's time to eat!"

Jiang Zhu shouted at the cave. When she was happy, she called him an old man, and when she was unhappy, she called him Lao Bai directly, anyway, he didn't care, he only cared if he made it for him to eat.

"Well, the craft is getting better and better!"

Lao Bai was finally reluctant to put down his dry tobacco pouch, tore off a rabbit leg from the shelf, took a bite in his mouth, and couldn't help but stretch out his thumb and praise.

Jiang Zhu gave him an angry look, and some of the remaining oil juice was stained on Lao Bai's beard.

"Sloppy old man!"

Jiang Zhu flattened his mouth disdainfully.

"Hehe, it's good to have something to eat, whether it's sloppy or not, it is estimated that in a few days, it will not be sloppy."

Lao Bai was eating indiscriminately, and at the same time brushed his long beard with his vicissitudes of life, and smiled, the already white shiny beard was even more shiny.

Hearing Lao Bai's words, Jiang Zhu's eyes lit up, and she approached Lao Bai with a piece of rabbit leg, and smiled flatteringly, "You mean, we'll be leaving here soon?" ”

Lao Bai didn't answer immediately, no matter how Jiang Zhu looked at him with expectant eyes, he still slowly finished gnawing the rabbit leg in his hand, looked at the sky, and then said leisurely, "Maybe, it just depends on whether your Wei Chi kid is smart enough." ”

"Huh? Captain Chi boy? Brother Fulin? ”

Jiang Zhu's eyes flashed with surprise, so Yu Chi Fulin came to find her?

It's just that for a moment, Jiang Zhu was puzzled again, the imperial capital was so far away from Luozhou, how could Yu Chi Fulin know? How did the old man in front of him know?

Thinking of this, she was still surprised just now, and immediately looked at Lao Bai with scrutinizing eyes, "How do you know about Brother Fulin?" ”

"I... I'll do it! ”

Lao Bai was stunned, then raised his head, looking like he couldn't leak it, seeing that Jiang Zhu couldn't wait to the stone next to him, he gave it to him.

"Cut !!"

Jiang Zhu's mouth was flat, "At most, you are guessing, or, are you in a gang with those kidnappers of me?" ”

"Fart!" When Lao Bai heard this, he couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth, and after finishing the words, he found that he had lost his words, and he was a little embarrassed.

"How can the old man be the same as those people? Anyway, the old man didn't tie you up and tied you up, and taught you how to survive in the mountains, you little girl actually compared the old man with those three indiscriminate, it's really in vain that the old man saved you! Hmph, it's really a dog biting Lu Dongbin, I don't know the hearts of good people! The angry old man is also! ”

After Lao Bai finished speaking, he threw the rabbit bone in his hand vigorously, turned around angrily, and ignored Jiang Zhu anymore.

"Huh?"

Jiang Zhu couldn't help but want to roll his eyes again, dare to love this is still a child with a small temper, angry?

"As long as you get me out of here as soon as possible, or send me to my grandfather, I'll believe you're not with them, okay?"

Jiang Zhu thought about it, walked up to Lao Bai and said to him.

"Not good!"

"And what are you going to do to send me away?"

"The time has not come!"

"And when will the time come?"

"Look at the providence!"

Lao Bai replied stubbornly.

Jiang Zhu supported her forehead, the same situation would be repeated several times a day, but this damn weird old man insisted on not agreeing to send her away, she was a little suspicious, this old man deliberately left her on this mountain to make him good food.

"Alas!!"

Jiang Zhu sat back in her place, and also looked up at the sky, she decided to give up persuading the old man, hoping that Brother Fulin and her grandfather could find her as soon as possible.

Another day passed, and in a place dozens of miles away from Jingshan, Yu Chi Fulin led a team of people and horses from the Qin Mansion to find some strange marks along the way, and they followed the marks and finally found a clue.
