Chapter 55: The Hidden King's Vigil

"Surely you've never heard of it at your age." You Shan said, "That was when my grandfather was young, and I also listened to what my father said, bless the tax, that is, pay taxes to the five gods, as long as the tax is paid, the whole family can be safe, and any incurable diseases can be cured." ”

"There is such a bizarre tax." Liu Ping'an turned his head and asked Xiao Zhiqi, "Uncle, have you heard of it?" ”

Xiao Zhiqi shook his head, "I haven't heard of it either." ”

"That's it." You Shan pinched the bamboo piece to raise the wick and continued: "I see that Brother Xiao is younger than me, and I have never heard of this before. ”

Liu Ping'an asked: "Brother You, have you ever asked your father, who will collect this tax?" People from Wenhua Palace, or people from the government? ”

"It should be someone from the government." You Shan said, "At that time, there were not so many people in Wenhua Palace, even if they wanted to collect taxes, the people would not listen to them." ”

"Hey, am I talking too much?" You Shan was a little worried, "You probably haven't heard such words outside, people outside should be talking about Wenhua Palace." ”

Liu Ping'an smiled and did not answer.

"People outside don't all say good things about Wenhua Palace." This is what Man Cang said, "I've also heard people say that Wenhua Palace is not good. ”

"Yo, there are such sensible people out there?" You Shan was surprised.

Liu Ping'an noticed that what this Brother You said was not a sarcastic tone, he was serious and thought that only he knew that Wenhua Palace was not a good thing.

"No matter what time it is, there will always be reasonable people." Liu Ping'an said, "I don't think it's too early, Brother You, you still have injuries on your feet, go and rest early, we still have to borrow your tables, chairs and benches for a while, and disturb you for a night." ”

"What do you mean?" You Shan said, "I let you come to the house, how can I let you sleep on tables, chairs and benches." Don't look at my small family, my family has two beds, enough for the four of us. ”

You Shan took them to see the bed, the two beds were not in the same room, and the size of the bed was enough for them to sleep.

"Well, it's enough to sleep." You Shan kindly assigned: "Brother Xiao, let's two adults sleep together, how about their children sleep in the same bed." ”

"After all, it's on the mountain, for the sake of safety, Brother You, you sleep with a full warehouse." Xiao Zhiqi pointed to Liu Ping'an, "I'm in the same room with her." ”

"That's fine." You Shan didn't have much of an opinion.

Of course, Xiao Zhiqi couldn't sleep on the same bed with Liu Ping'an, there was a bench in the room, and he put on an old posture again, the bench was against the door, and he sat on the bench and closed his eyes to recuperate.

"Uncle." Liu Ping'an whispered: "It's not a problem for you to do this, you can still hold on if you don't sleep at night for the past two days, we have to walk for several days from here to home, how can you afford to eat." ”

"What do you want to say?" Xiao Zhiqi asked.

"I didn't want to say anything." Liu Ping'an said, "Uncle, let's do this, I can hold it in the first half of the night, you go to sleep for a while, and I sleep in the second half of the night, anyway, I don't like you, what do you think." ”

"Sleep honestly." Xiao Zhiqi unilaterally cut off communication and closed his eyes against the door.

Liu Ping'an sighed and returned to the bed, just lay down and sat up again, went to the door to pull Xiao Zhiqi away, and came back from the outside against two benches.

Cover the two benches with a quilt and close the door.

"What are you doing?" Xiao Zhiqi asked her.

"You sleep on this, look at the nest I made for you, although it is not as good as a bed, but it is definitely more comfortable than you can sleep while sitting." Liu Ping'an said, "I just remembered that we don't have to keep vigil, just let Youjun keep watch." ”

Under normal circumstances, Xiao Zhiqi really couldn't think of him.

Youjun doesn't show his figure very often, and he doesn't talk often, so it's easy to forget about it, of course, this is just for Xiao Zhiqi.

Youjun is not particularly good at finding a sense of existence, and sometimes it will even float to a distance to see the excitement.

However, once Liu Ping'an talks about it, it can sense it wherever it is, which is why it dares to float out.

This time, Liu Ping'an mentioned it at night, and Youjun floated back again.

It floated in through the closed window, and the blue light figure, half stuck inside and half stuck outside, "How can you let me guard it?" I'm going to sleep at night, too. ”

"Come on." Liu Ping'an complained: "I've never seen you sleep at night, and besides, what do you sleep at night as an owl?" ”

"Who said I was an owl?" "I am the Night Stalker, the most powerful creature in Hades. ”

"Huh?" Liu Ping'an almost laughed when he heard this, "When did the night snack become a creature?" ”

Xiao Zhiqi couldn't understand Liu Ping'an's laughter, "Okay, you go to bed quickly." ”

"Okay, okay." Liu Ping'an sat back on the bed, "Uncle, you can sleep too." ”

Youjun finally relented, "Oh, Xiao Zhiqi, I see your face, I'll keep you all night, you go to sleep." ”

The next morning, Liu Ping'an was pulled up by Xiao Zhiqi, and sleepy-eyed Meng Rong saw an owl standing on his shoulder.

"I'll go, this is Youjun?" Liu Ping'an quickly came to his senses.

The bird's mouth spat out a human word, "I kept watch for you all night, and I had to sleep during the day." ”

"Hard work, as it should be." Although Liu Ping'an said this, his two hands touched Youjun's wings, "Hey, you come to sleep on my shoulder, I have never played...... Well, I've never looked at you closely. ”

Youjun waved his wings and blocked Liu Ping'an's hand, "Be honest, men and women don't kiss." ”

"Hey, that's kind of funny from your mouth right now."

You Shan was really a hospitable person, and he left them for breakfast.

When it was finally time to say goodbye, You Shan said what he had hesitated for a morning, "Brother Xiao, it's better to get rid of the thing on your shoulder as soon as possible, this thing is not lucky." ”

Youjun was angry and scolded: "You are unlucky!" ”

But what he said to You Shan was just the call of an ordinary owl.

"Well, why did this thing scream out?" You Shan patted his chest, "It's ugly." ”

After coming out of You Shan's house, they walked in the mountains for another morning, and they couldn't figure out what was going on outside the mountain, the biggest problem was that Xiao Zhiqi couldn't figure out which way to go out, of course, he didn't tell Liu Ping'an.

In the morning, Xiao Zhiqi caught two more gray rabbits.

Eating rabbit meat at noon, Liu Ping'an sighed, "It's still good in the mountains, there are few people and the air is good." ”

Liu Ping'an stretched, "Uncle, let's just stay in the mountains, anyway, those people in Wenhua Palace can't find it here." ”

Before Xiao Zhiqi could speak, Man Cang died first, "Huh? I don't want to be a savage. ”
