Text Chapter 489 Qixian Mountain
Xiao He and Mu Churan didn't know that someone was following them.
After the two of them determined the whereabouts of Jiang Yufeng and Xu Moyang, they immediately returned to the city and bought the best medicine to get rid of snakes and insects, saying that they were going to enter Qixian Mountain, where Hexiang Palace was located.
The reason why Qixian Mountain is called such a name is because there are many peaks, and there are seven big ones that can be named, just like seven bowstrings, so it is called Qixian Mountain.
The boss who sold medicinal herbs was a kind-hearted person from the Central Plains, and when he heard that the two of them were going to Qixian Mountain, he hurriedly stopped them, and waved his hands again and again and said, "No, you can't go." ”
"Oh, why?" Xiao He looked at him strangely.
The two of them had asked a lot of people just now, but each of them was very secretive about Qixian Mountain, either shaking their heads and saying they didn't know, or they simply walked away and refused to tell them.
They are also very strange, why no one dares to say Hexiang Palace, could it be that Hexiang Palace is some kind of demonic existence, which can eat people?
For Xiao He's question, this boss answered very quickly, probably because of the Central Plains, if something happens, you can run away, don't worry about the retaliation of Hexiang Palace.
"The Qixian Mountain is very evil, there are not only jackals, tigers and leopards on the mountain, but also many Gu insects. If one is not careful, he will become the host of Gu worms. You probably don't know that those Gu worms are all raised in the mountains, and there are all kinds of rumors, some say that they are on all kinds of animals in the mountains, as long as someone kills those animals, the Gu worms on the animals will run to people. Some people say that Gu insects are in the woods, and if they are not careful, they will be contaminated. Some people say that Gu insects are everywhere, and they must be removed by a specific method, and if there is only a medicine to repel snakes and insects, it is impossible to enter Hexiang Palace. Because before entering the Hexiang Palace, people had already been controlled by the Gu worms of the Hexiang Palace. ”
The boss explained in detail, Xiao He listened to it, frowned, couldn't she still find her parents?
"Then boss, is there any way to get rid of these Gu worms?" Mu Churan stepped forward and asked, and at the same time took out a silver ingot and gave it to him, "The boss will use this money to do some small business." ”
The boss looked at the ingot of silver, his expression was struggling, and he could see that he wanted to take it, but, about the same as others, he still had his own insistence, and the education he had been receiving did not allow him to take it, and his moral character did not allow him to take it, so he seemed hesitant.
"How did the boss come up with the idea of opening a shop here?" Mu Churan put the money in the boss's hand and asked again.
"Alas," in the end, the boss still accepted it, and the people had to bow their heads under the eaves.
Next, the boss talked about his own experience.
He didn't come here voluntarily to open a shop, but because he lost money by doing business here, and couldn't make up the money to go home, he found a shop as a shopkeeper, first, to have a place to live, and secondly, he also wanted to return to his hometown when he had saved enough money.
He still has a wife, children and mother at home, and he doesn't want to stay here longer, but he has no money in his hand, but he can't go back.
When Xiao He heard this, he deeply pitied him, took out a piece of silver and handed it to him, and said: "You have said such things to us, and no one else wants to say it, these rights should be our thank you money." If you don't want to stay here, you might as well go home and have a look. ”
In case the people of Hexiang Palace find this shopkeeper and find him trouble, he doesn't know martial arts, and the situation will be worrying.
The boss took the money, covered his face with his sleeves, whimpered for a moment, and said, "I will never forget the great kindness of the two benefactors." Please also ask the benefactor to leave his name, and he will repay him in the future. ”
"That's not necessary, you just need to tell us what you know about Hexiang Palace." Mu Churan made a suggestion.
The shopkeeper readily agreed, so he told all the rumors about Hexiang Palace that he knew, and at the end he kindly reminded: "That Hexiang Palace is very evil, if the two benefactors have nothing important, it's better not to go, in case they fall into their way, no one can save you." ”
"Thank you for the reminder," Xiao He thanked the boss first, and then asked him when he would leave, and the boss said that he had been here for three or four years and wanted to leave now.
Xiao He thought about it, he was idle anyway, and it was okay to give him a ride, and he happened to hear him talk about other things about southern Xinjiang on the way.
So the two sent the shopkeeper all the way out of southern Xinjiang and turned back when they arrived at the border of the Central Plains.
On the way back, Mu Churan couldn't stop looking at Xiao He, seeing Xiao He strange, he couldn't help asking, "What do you think I'm doing?" ”
"I'm just wondering, why do you have to send him away?" Mu Churan raised his own questions.
Xiao He smiled, "The power of Hexiang Palace is so big, who knows if anyone will follow him?" If it is because of our relationship, he is targeted by Hexiang Palace, isn't it our fault? Therefore, I think that since I want to help him, it is better to help him to the end. That way he can go back and be with his family, and we won't ask a few questions and kill someone. ”
"You're still so kind." Mu Churan sighed.
Xiao He smiled slightly, like a hundred flowers blooming, "What is kind or unkind, I don't know, I just know that I did what I had to do." ”
For this boss, since he is also from the Central Plains, since he wants to go back, it is better to send him away as soon as possible. She didn't believe it, there were no people in the city who were watching them from the Hexiang Palace. Otherwise, why are those people secretive about Hexiang Palace?
The two entered the city again, and it was already dark at this time, and it was not suitable to go to Qixian Mountain again, so they could only go back to the inn first and wait for tomorrow morning to go.
Xiao He stopped at the door of the inn and asked Mu Churan, "You say, should we change the inn again, or just stay here?" ”
If you live in this house, what can that Aunt Li do?
Although she doesn't really have much effect on them, it's annoying to be disturbed all the time.
For Xiao He's hesitation, Mu Churan also couldn't make up his mind, this inn is actually the best inn in the city, other inns, if the food is not good, or the accommodation conditions are not good, and it is uncomfortable to live, only this one, the food and accommodation conditions are the best choice.
If there is no Aunt Li, it is a good place.
Just when the two hesitated, they suddenly saw a fat man walking out of the door of the inn, the two were startled, and before they had time to retreat, they were grabbed by Aunt Li, and said with a smile: "Oh, you are finally here, wait for you for a long time, come in and eat." ”
On the dining table in the lobby of the inn, there were five or six steaming meals, and Jiang Bo looked at the table with a sad face, bowing his head and saying nothing.
"Sit", Aunt Li asked the two of them to sit down, and then looked at Xiao He and Mu Churan, who were uncomfortable, and said with a smile, "These dishes are reserved for you, and I and I have already eaten them." You've been running for a long day, and you're tired, so let's eat. ”
Xiao He glanced slightly, and frowned violently, it's not that the dishes are bad, or there are insects or something, but the dishes are too good, all of them are what he and Mu Churan love to eat.
Xiao He was a little strange, looked up at Aunt Li and asked, "How do you know that we love to eat these dishes?" ”
"Oh," Aunt Li didn't answer her question when she heard this, but slapped Jiang Bo on the shoulder, patted him on the back, and said happily, "Look, I'll just say, what do the two children like to eat, just ask Xiao Er, where is the need to spend so much effort?" He said to Xiao He again, "These dishes Xiaoer said, you ordered them last night, I thought, it should be your favorite food, so I ordered another one for you." ”
Xiao He took a closer look, it was true, they all ordered it last night.
"Let's eat, let's eat," At the urging of Aunt Li, Xiao He and Mu Churan had a fairly comfortable dinner.
After eating, Aunt Li took the two of them up to rest.
For her unusual enthusiasm, Xiao He and Mu Churan were full of doubts and asked, "Why are you so good to us?" ”
"Oh," Aunt Li said calmly and naturally, "I still have a daughter, have you forgotten?" You are my son-in-law, how can I treat you badly? ”
He pointed at Xiao He and said, "This will be my sister in the future, my daughter will be my sister in the future, and my sister should take care of my sister, oh?" ”
In a word, success made Mu Churan and Xiao He stunned on the spot, no, does she really have a daughter?
Mu Churan looked Aunt Li up and down, this figure, and looked at Xiao He, it was still Xiao He.
"Don't worry," Aunt Li added, "My daughter is really not too fat, although she is a little fatter than my family, but she is strong." You don't know, you are good at doing farm work. Although I eat a little more, you also know that women, they eat a lot and are good at giving birth. ”
Mu Churan couldn't bear to look at it directly, he didn't want it!
looked at Xiao He again, expecting her to categorically refuse Aunt Li's unreasonable request, who knows, Xiao He was not only not angry, but looked at Aunt Li carefully with great interest, and said with a smile: "I think you can give it a try." ”
Mu Churan shook off Xiao He's hand and went upstairs by himself.
When he went upstairs, someone in the lobby who was watching the excitement while eating suddenly laughed: "The groom has courage!" ”
Mu Churan's footsteps upstairs paused, sped up, entered the door, Peng slammed it shut, and never went out again.
"Oh, what a stubborn boy, you see, he doesn't want to enjoy the blessings of all people," Aunt Li looked regretful, but in a blink of an eye, she changed her smiling face again, patted Xiao He's hand and boasted, "You look like a good boy." Don't worry, in the future, when my daughter comes to your house, you just need to feed her. ”
Xiao He touched Aunt Li's hand, only to feel that it was slippery.
"Well, I said," at this time, the lively man roared again, "your girl won't eat people poor, right?" ”
After speaking, there was laughter in the lobby.
Xiao He took out her hand, thinking about Mu Churan, and hurriedly said goodbye, she wanted to quickly persuade him, such a woman who took the initiative to send it to the door was rare.
As soon as Xiao He left, Jiang Yufeng came to Xu Moyang's side, and said helplessly: "When are you going to play?" ”
Xu Moyang raised his head, "Play until I don't want to play," and smiled again, "This silly boy, I really have a daughter, and he will cry in the future." ”
