44. Xiaobai is out of the customs
Since you have decided, you will not stay any longer, and leave with the people who are with you, leaving one person behind, and report the news of the little girl to yourself at any time, and look good to come again. It's really time for me to go home, otherwise that person is afraid that he doesn't know how capable he is, and dares to come to his own trouble and disturb his daughter-in-law.
March passed, Ling Wushuang was out of the customs, and the Wushuang Courtyard also opened the door that had been closed for a long time, and in the past few months, even the gate of the Wushuang Courtyard was closed, cutting off all contact. Even my father and brother haven't seen each other for a long time, so I asked Qingluo to tell my father and brother early in the morning that they would have dinner together in the evening. Ever since the envoys of Qi Liguo came, Ling Wushuang had been very uneasy, always feeling that something big was going to happen, so he was ruthless, isolated from everyone, and retreated, just to improve his strength as soon as possible. In three months, I not only studied with my master, but also trained with the dark guards to increase my actual combat experience.
In the evening, the cook had already prepared a table of meals, and I heard that the young lady would have dinner with the general and the young master when she went out today, and the dishes were extraordinarily rich, and even the father and son of the Ling family, who had been busy with government affairs, returned home early.
Ling Wushuang asked Qingluo to comb her hair simply, cleaned it up, and came to the hall.
"Daddy, brother, I haven't seen you for a few months, do you miss me!" Looking at the two people in the hall, he sat there and waited for himself. That's good, there's nothing more to ask for.
"I must have thought, if it weren't for your girl who didn't let us go to Wushuang Courtyard to find you, how could I not see you for so long." When Ling Ye saw his daughter, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, appear in front of him, he only felt that he missed him very much.
"If Qingluo hadn't kept telling us that you were safe in Wushuang Courtyard, we would have thought that something had happened to you again." There has been no movement in Wushuang Courtyard for a few months, if it weren't for the secret guard in the courtyard telling him that Shuang'er had indeed been staying in Wushuang Courtyard to learn martial arts, and with Qingluo's advice, the two of them would really not be at ease.
"What can happen to me, there are so many secret guards, who dares to come in."
"Look, you've lost weight, sit down and eat more tonight."
"Yes, Daddy."
"Yes, yes, it's only been a few months, and I've lost so much weight, but it's really a lot stronger to the touch." As he spoke, Ling Tian patted Ling Wushuang's shoulder.
"That's not it, I've been practicing hard for the past three months, and now it's amazing."
"Really? Come on, awesome Shuang'er, eat quickly, if you don't eat, the awesome Shuang'er won't be awesome. Saying that, Ling Ye sandwiched a chicken leg for Ling Wushuang and put it in the bowl.
"Thank you, Dad, Dad will eat too." As he spoke, he sandwiched another chicken leg for Ling Ye.
The three of them sat around the table, enjoying themselves, and cheerful laughter could be heard in the distance.
After eating with his family, Ling Wushuang returned to Wushuang Courtyard alone, three months, not long, not short, get up before dawn every day, fight with the secret guards, the secret guards in the house are now afraid of her, at first they were afraid of Ling Wushuang's identity, and they didn't dare to make a heavy hand, but later Ling Wushuang found out, so they forced them to fight seriously, Ling Wushuang can be ruthless to herself, and the twenty years of lonely life in the 21st century make her deeply understand that if she is ruthless to herself, Then in the future, there will be others who will be even more cruel to themselves.
"Ling Qi, I heard that there are often wild beasts in the mountains and forests outside the imperial capital?" Ling Wushuang, who returned to the room, did not wash up and rest, but changed into civilian clothes and sat at the table to call Ling Qi.
"Yes, miss, that forest originally had no name, but later after the beast ate people, it was called the cannibal forest, and there was often miasma in the forest, and there were experienced hunters who went to hunt in the past, but now the government has sealed the forest, and no one has entered it."
"Miasma, wild beasts eating people?"
"What is this asking for?"
"Oh, didn't the government send someone to the forest to take a look?" It stands to reason that there was a beast eating man in the forest near the imperial capital, and the government didn't dare to ignore it, so why did it directly seal the forest?
"I went, there were a lot of people who went there, but before they could go in, they were poisoned by the miasma in the forest, and then they were dragged away by wild beasts, and the bones were gone, and then the forest was directly sealed."
"yes, okay, I got it."
"Miss, don't tell me you're going into the woods, do you?" Originally, I thought that the young lady would ask some other things after leaving the customs, but I didn't expect to ask about the cannibal forest, thinking that it was just curiosity, but after thinking about it carefully, when did my young lady have curiosity, and when it was connected with the young lady's usual behavior and habits, Ling Qi felt that something was wrong.
"Well, I want to go in and have a look."
"You can't get in, miss, it's too dangerous inside."
"It's okay, I'll just take a look from the side."
"That's not good, if Miss has to go, I'll go and tell the young master." It's too dangerous in the cannibal forest, and it will definitely be dangerous for the young lady to go in, so she must be stopped.
"Ling Qi." As soon as he heard that Ling Qi was going to tell his brother, Ling Wushuang suddenly became a little angry, although he knew that he was thinking about his own safety, but using his brother to threaten himself could be regarded as touching Ling Wushuang's bottom line.
"Miss..."The young lady who had a relaxed face just now has changed into the kind of person who is not allowed to enter when she first came into contact, with a cold face, which makes it difficult for people to get close.
"If you want to tell my brother, go ahead, but you won't appear in front of me in the future, I don't like a person who threatens me to appear in front of me."
"The subordinates swear to follow Miss to the death, and they will not go anywhere." Having known Ling Wushuang for so long, and hearing such heavy words from the young lady for the first time, Ling Qi suddenly panicked, afraid that Ling Wushuang would really drive him away, so he quickly knelt down.
"I told you from the first day you followed me that if you want to follow me, you can only recognize me as a master."
"The subordinates know their mistakes, please spare the subordinates this time."
Looking at Ling Qi who was kneeling on the ground, Ling Wushuang didn't really want to punish him, but he didn't like to be threatened by others, so he had to ring a wake-up call for him.
"Alright, alright, get up!" Listening to Ling Wushuang's words, Ling Qi didn't dare to get up.
"If you really know that you are wrong, get up quickly, and don't do it again in the future."
"Yes." As he spoke, he slowly stood up from the ground.
"Let's not take it as an example."
"Yes, miss."
Seeing that Ling Qi still had a serious face, Ling Wushuang spoke: "Okay, I'm not right, I know that you are for my good, but I don't like to be endangered by others." I just knelt on the ground, I listened to it and it hurt, stupid or not, I said, you don't have to kneel me in front of me, you still kneel so loudly. ”
Seeing that the young lady had returned to her usual appearance, Ling Qi slowly relaxed.
"Let's go, you come with me to the woods."
"Yes, miss."
As he spoke, Ling Wushuang carried a small package on the table to his side and led Ling Qi out of the room.
"By the way, Miss, a few days ago, the secret guard came to report that Xiaobai was already training, but at that time, Miss was still in retreat, so she was temporarily placed in the backyard."
"Xiaobai has trained? Come on, you can bring me a look first. "It's been a bit busy in this short time, I don't think about Xiaobai at all, and I don't know what that little guy looks like now.
Ling Wushuang stood alone in the courtyard and waited for Ling Qi to bring Xiaobai over, since it was said that Xiaobai had trained well, then he would take Xiaobai with him when he went to the cannibal forest this time, just to see how Xiaobai was training.
