As soon as Mansha walked into the house with Cang Wunian and An Ruyue, he saw a boy who looked to be about twelve or thirteen years old, the boy was honest and honest, and seemed to be taller than boys of the same age.

But what Mansha didn't expect was that the boy immediately grabbed the old woman's arm after glancing at a few people, hid behind the old woman with a frightened face, and shouted vaguely: "Mother-in-law, youkai...... Mother-in-law, there are youkai ......"

The old woman didn't know why, patted the boy's hand and comforted: "Yong'er, this is the lady and young master of another family passing by here, and they came to our house to spend the night, not a monster." ”

But the old woman's words did not have any comforting effect, on the contrary, the boy seemed even more frightened, he stretched out a hand and pointed at Cang Wunian tremblingly: "He is a monster, a monster...... Look at his eyes, it's scary...... He's a monster!"

The old woman and the old man were both attracted by Mansha's beauty before, and they didn't look at Cang Wunian carefully, after all, they learned from the other party's family that their young master was sick, and it was always rude to stare at the young master when someone was sick.

But now that the boy was making a fuss, the old woman and the old man both turned their eyes to Cang Wunian, and by the not-so-bright candle flame, they were shocked to find that the child in front of them, who looked only six or seven years old, actually had a pair of gray eyes that were so cold that people felt creepy.

The old man was barely able to calm down, but the old woman couldn't stand it, and her grandson had been dragging her to death, shouting "monster monster" in her mouth, the old woman hurriedly pulled her grandson back a few steps back and said: "A few of you should find another place, we are ordinary poor people, we have never done anything evil in our lives, and please let us go." ”

"This grandma, he is my child, not a monster, because he was sick to become like this. Please don't be afraid, we really just went to seek medical attention, passed by here and wanted to spend the night, and we will leave early tomorrow morning. Mansha didn't expect things to turn out like this, and hurriedly spoke out to appease the old woman.

"Ah...... Don't come, youkai don't come......" The boy screamed in fright when he saw Mansha anxiously pulling Cang Wunian closer to them a few more steps.

"I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to......" Mansha hurriedly apologized, pulling Cang Wunian back a little.

Seeing this, An Ruyue quickly ripped off the small purse on her waist, stuffed it into the old man's hand, and said eagerly: "This old man, this is all we have entangled, and we will give it to you, so let's spend the night here." ”

At this time, the old woman said, "We don't want your money, so you better leave quickly!"

"This ......" The old man looked at his frightened family, and then looked at the Mansha people in front of him, and finally shook his head helplessly: "You better go, we don't dare to ask for this money." ”

"Old man, didn't we say that we would stay overnight before? Now that you drive us out, where will we stay tonight?" An Ruyue was about to cry.

“...... Why don't you do this, there is an abandoned ruined temple not far ahead, and if you really don't have a place to go tonight, go and settle down there. The old man hesitated and proposed.

An Ruyue was anxious when she heard it, what kind of abandoned and broken temple, not to mention whether there is a beggar leader who occupies an area and is the king, just listening to it makes me feel scary, can the broken temple in the wilderness live in people?

Seeing that An Ruyue was going to say something more, Mansha grabbed An Ruyue's hand and shook her head gently. Then she bowed to the old man again: "Since this is the case, then we will go to the broken temple tonight to settle down." It's just that we are not familiar with life, can we trouble my husband to lead the way and take us to the broken temple. ”

Seeing that this young and beautiful lady was so dignified and polite, the old man sighed helplessly in his heart. He had carefully looked at Cang Wunian beside Mansha just now, except that at first glance the eyes were really terrifying, but they were first-class beautiful, and it seemed that they were the true inheritance of his mother.

"Let's go, I'll take you there. The old man said, went to the corner of the house, picked up a worn-out lantern, lit it, and walked slowly out of the house.

A few guards who were still staying in the courtyard were a little puzzled when they saw Mansha and the three of them come out with the old man again.

"Ma'am, what's going on? We just heard someone in the house talking about youkai?" asked the previous chauffeur guard.

Mansha shook his head: "Don't ask anything, follow this old man." ”

The old man carried a broken lantern and slowly led the way in front, and at first no one spoke, only the sound of horses' hooves and the rolling of the wheels behind him.

It's just that it didn't take long for the old man to stand this weird silence, although he didn't think that Mansha and the others were bad people, but just now let his grandson make such a fuss, he always felt hairy in his heart.

As if to alleviate the embarrassing atmosphere, and as if to embolden himself, the old man opened his mouth to break the dull atmosphere: "Hey, my grandson had an illness when he was a child, because he didn't have time to be treated, he lost his brain, and now he has become a little demented, and I hope that Mrs. will not take the child's words to heart." ”

Hearing the old man say this, Mansha also had some understanding in his heart, no wonder the child would say that he was a monster when he saw Wu Nian, presumably because he was mentally incomplete and easily frightened, and the old woman was naturally afraid, but she must have been more worried about what her grandson would be stimulated again, so she drove them out.

"Originally, we were presumptuous, and my husband didn't have to mind. Mansha said lightly.

"I don't know if the little boy has an eye disease, if it is an eye disease, I know that there is a very skilled Langzhong in Shaoyang Town, which is closest to us, and my son and daughter-in-law are both doing work in that town, and occasionally they have mentioned to me when they come back, but the consultation fee is higher, and it costs a penny of silver just to queue up for a doctor, let alone prescribe medicine......" The old man babbled, not realizing Mansha's absent-mindedness.

The old man talked to himself for a while, and found that Mansha had not answered at all, so he stopped in some fear and slowly looked back.

"What's the matter, uncle, why don't you leave?" Mansha asked with some confusion when he saw the old man stop.

"Oh, it's okay, it's okay. I saw that my wife hadn't spoken for a long time, and I thought it was lost. The old man hurriedly found an excuse.

"I'm really sorry, I just heard my husband talk about eye disease, and I was a little distracted. We were going to Shaoyang Town, and since there is such a good Langzhong in that town, then I am relieved. Mansha said apologetically.

"I hope that the little boy's eye disease can recover soon...... Oh, and the front is here. The old man said, raising his finger forward.
