Hong Zhong was also energetic when he heard it, he hadn't dart for a long time, his body was fat, he lit up the big knife in his hand, and said with full anger: "Lao Tzu's knife should also be stained with blood!" ”

The sunlight fell on the knife and reflected on Hao Tianlin's face, and he turned his face to avoid the dazzling light. I saw Qiao Zimei, who was sitting opposite, looking like he had done something wrong, and said to him: "Brother Hao, blame me for being playful and causing trouble, or I will show up and apologize!" ”

Hao Tianlin smiled lightly and shook his head.

When Ling Zixuan heard her say this, he knew that she had caused the incident just now, so he said, "Everyone, don't be impatient. ”

But where could Hong Zhong hear it, seeing Hao Tianlin shaking his head with a smile, his attitude was so disdainful, thinking that he looked down on himself, he was even more annoyed, raised his big knife and shouted, and rushed over, slashing at Hao Tianlin.

"Ahh

"What's wrong?" Ling Zixuan heard her scream, and he couldn't see anything, and he was like an ant on a hot pot, but in this case, who could answer him.

Magnetic sound opened his mouth and was about to intercede, and in a hurry, Hao Tianlin had already put down the teacup, stretched out his hand and clamped it with two fingers, and actually clamped the blade, Hong Zhong was also frightened, and wanted to pull it out and split it again, but he couldn't pull it out.

Qiao Zimei was immediately dumbfounded, Hao Tianlin's kung fu was so powerful, but he couldn't fight that queen that day!

"Thunder and rain are small!" Hao Tianlin said coldly sarcastically.

The knife in Hong Zhong's hand couldn't be chopped, he couldn't draw it, and he couldn't abandon it, so he was standing with the knife in such a posture, it was really embarrassing, and it was really a shame for him, and his face was red with anger.

Seeing that the eldest brother was actually caught by someone with a knife, the man won before the sword moved. Where has he ever seen such a powerful person, he is afraid in his heart, but the eldest brother is fighting for him, and he can't ignore the eldest brother, pull out the sword at his waist, and go around behind Hao Tianlin to attack.

When Qiao Zimei saw it, he shouted, "Brother Hao, be careful behind you!" ”

Hao Tianlin knew everything in his heart, his ears listened to the movement behind him, and the fingers holding the big knife suddenly twisted, twisting the blade of the big knife alive, and then grabbed the saber on the table with lightning speed and bounced up, dodging the attack, and with a swing of the sword, he knocked down the sword in the hand of the low voice, and the sword was against his throat.

A deep voice held the palms of the hands that were painful when the two swords collided, and said tremblingly: "Uncle, the small one has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, please let the little ......one go."

Seeing that the third brother was about to lose his life, Daoyin hurriedly went over to intercede, and said: "This hero, the younger brother is here to compensate you, can you please let him go?" He had never seen a man who could clamp a swift blade with just two fingers, and not only that, but he could also break the knife with his bare hands, which required a lot of finger strength and guts to do, if he couldn't catch it, the hand would be useless. However, is there really such a high level of kung fu? I'm afraid this person is not only practicing kung fu, but also spells!

Although Ling Zixuan couldn't see it, he could guess a rough idea, knowing that there must have been a conflict between the two sides, and his side had won. Moreover, he heard that the owner of the magnetic sound had been helping him to speak, and that he was not slow or hurried, and that he must have been a polite man. At this time, he heard him intercede for his brother, so he said to Hao Tianlin: "Hao Zhan, forget it, let's continue on the road." ”

Hao Tianlin smiled contemptuously, put his sword back into its sheath, took out a piece of cloth from his baggage, packed the fried rice that Ling Zixuan had never eaten, and helped him back to the horse. Qiao Zimei also threw himself back into the sword.

Ciyin silently recited "Hao Zhan Hao Zhan" in his heart, why is this name so familiar? But I couldn't think of anything for a while.

The low voice was still frightened, his legs trembled and he was weak, looking at the two people who were far away, and the magnetic voice was also watching, thoughtful, and said after a while: "They seem to know spells, I think they are going in the direction of Xilin Mountain, which is where the immortal chief cultivates." ”

After he finished speaking, seeing that no one responded, he looked back at the two brothers, one staring at the severed knife on the ground with a solemn expression, and the hand holding the handle of the knife was still trembling slightly; One trembled with his legs and looked in the direction in which the horse had disappeared.

The horses had just eaten enough on the grass, and they ran with much more vigor, and after running for more than an hour, the sky gradually became dark. At this time, they came to a village, and there was a broken stone tablet among the weeds at the entrance of the village, and the three carved words on it that had faded could be faintly seen - Stone Village. This place seems to be very poor, surrounded by thatched houses, such a poor village, I am afraid there is no inn.

Hao Tianlin rode around the village a few times, and said to the people behind him: "After this village, we can walk for a few hours to Xilin Mountain, but we can't find an inn, so we have to spend the night with the people." ”

Ling Zixuan was already hungry and had stomach pain, and he kept refluxing acid, he held his stomach and said, "Whatever." ”

Hao Tianlin parked his horse in front of a slightly larger thatched hut, helped him dismount, and said, "You wait for me here first, and I'll ask them if they'd like to stay with us for the night." ”

At this time, Qiao Zimei also came out of the sword and looked around.

Hao Tianlin went to knock on the door, and after a while, the door opened, and an old man poked his head out, his voice was a little hoarse, and asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

Hao Tianlin said: "Uncle, we are passing through here and want to spend the night, I wonder if you can make it convenient?" ”

The old man looked at the two of them one by one, thinking that this person looked unsightly with a hat, and he was definitely not a good person, so he just wanted to refuse, and then his eyes fell on Qiao Zimei, and he thought that the little girl's family was out at night, which was too desolate, so he said: "There happens to be a guest room, you can come in." ”

Qiao Zimei saw the old man staring at him, but he obviously didn't show up to him, but it is true that sometimes it is like this, maybe this is fate.

Hao Tianlin tied the horse outside the house, helped Ling Zixuan into the house, and as soon as he stepped into the house, a smell of dust came to his nose. A candle was lit on the table, and the light of the candle flickered and was dim.

The old man pointed to the dark room in the innermost room, and said to Qiao Zimei: "Little girl, you will sleep in that room tonight, and your two friends will sleep here with a quilt on the ground." ”

Ling Zixuan endured a stomach pain, scratched the itch on his body, accidentally kicked the chair leg, and almost fell off.

Hao Tianlin helped him and said, "The place is small, be careful." ”

When the old man saw him holding his stomach, he entered the house, and after a while, he took out a plate of sweet potatoes the size of three palms and a bowl of gruel, put them on the table, and said, "This is what I have eaten tonight, and it is still hot in the pot, so you can eat some." ”

"Thank you, uncle." Hao Tianlin thanked the old man and helped Ling Zixuan sit down.

Ling Zixuan flattened his stomach with hunger, lifted the black veil, grabbed the sweet potato, and put it in his mouth before the skin was peeled.

The old man squinted at the wound on his face, and he didn't care, it turned out that this young man was covering his face because there was a wound on his face!

Ling Zixuan ate a sweet potato in three or two bites, and then ate another one, groping for one left, and said, "Hao Zhan, there is only one left, you can eat it." ”

Hao Tianlin remembered that there was still packaged fried rice in the baggage, so he asked the old man: "Uncle, is it convenient to borrow the house?" ”

The old man hesitated and did not speak, probably because he was afraid of his idea of breaking the food in the house.

Hao Tianlin took out the fried rice wrapped in cloth and said with a smile: "I'll go hot meals." ”

The old man glanced at the cloth bag in his hand and said, "Medium! ”

Hao Tianlin entered the house, lit the firewood that still had residual warmth, heated the pot with oil, stir-fried a few times, and divided it into three bowls.

The old man smelled the aroma of the food, stared at the three bowls of hot rice in Hao Tianlin's hand, and salivated: "What is this, it's so fragrant!" ”

Hao Tianlin put the three hot small bowls on the table and said, "Try it." ”

The old man looked at a few of them, looked embarrassed, and grinned: "However, there are only three bowls here." ”

Hao Tianlin glanced at the woman who had been sitting next to Ling Zixuan and said, "She lost weight." ”

Qiao Zimei also squinted at the old man and smiled.

"You're welcome." The old man immediately sat down, munched on fried rice, and said as he ate, "It's delicious, it's delicious, I've never eaten anything so delicious in decades." ”

Qiao Zimei asked the old man: "Grandpa, are you living alone?" ”

The old man finished the fried rice in three or five clicks, wiped his mouth and said, "Yes, my wife has gone, and my son has gone out of the city to live, and he will not come back once in a few years." ”

Qiao Zimei said sympathetically: "Huh? Then there is no one to take care of you! ”

The old man smiled: "Almost all the young people in the village have gone to other places, only the old bones are left, and it will take a few more years, and we will all die of old age, and this will really become a dead village." ”

Hao Tianlin asked, "Why don't you leave this place with your children?" ”

The old man said, "We're old and don't want to run around, it's good here." ”

Qiao Zimei looked at the simple and dim room and said, "That's too, this is a poor and remote place, and the guy can't marry a wife if he stays here." ”

When the old man heard this, he suddenly looked sad, as if her words had evoked something sad, and pondered for a while before he said: "Actually, forty years ago, our village was relatively rich in these ten miles and eight townships, but unfortunately, because of that incident, our village became what it is now. ”

Qiao Zimei knew that there was another story to hear, and asked curiously: "What is it?" ”

The old man said: "Originally, our village has been doing snake sales for generations, and it is more famous in ten miles and eight townships. Relying on selling snakes, one by one they were well fed and clothed, and they lived a very nourishing life. Seeing that everyone was about to build a new house, at this time, a young man named Liu Feng came, and he ......"

"Liu Feng?" Qiao Zimei interrupted, "What does he look like?" She remembered that Concubine Su's younger brother was called Liu Feng.

The old man thought for a moment and said, "That young man is tall and thin, his face is white and clean, and he is polite and polite. ”

After Qiao Zimei listened to the old man's words, she was sure that this guy was not Liu Feng's monster, she had seen him twice, and he had never taken off his mask. And she heard other palace maids say that he has a strange personality and is very crazy in his work, how can he be polite.

The old man continued: "This young man, he found me, I was the village chief at that time, he said that he was looking for a fighting snake, all the way to find our village, found a black snake in a mountain god cave in the mountain behind the village, the snake has a circle of red lines up to the tail, the body is not big but very brave, must be very able to fight, but it is difficult to catch it with his own strength, I hope the villagers can help him catch it." When I heard that it was a snake in the cave of the mountain god, I didn't dare to catch it, so I immediately refused. ”

The old man paused and said again, "But that guy opened the burden on his back and saw me straight." ”
