Chapter 3 Your Father Ran Away with Someone
When Gu Zi and his party arrived at Aunt Lin's house, Second Uncle Lin was injured and lay on a chair unable to move, and Second Aunt Lin was holding a knife to confront a sheep, a sheep's foot was tied to a rope, it should be that the sheep broke free from the shackles and was about to escape, Second Uncle Lin commanded with his throat, "Quickly block the exit, don't let it run out, here, come over again."
Aunt Lin was in a hurry, so anxious that she didn't know what to do, as soon as the grain came in, she saw this scene, the sheep seemed to have a bad premonition, and rushed out of the door with all her strength, and was picked up by the grain, and Aunt Lin breathed a sigh of relief: "The grain is here, come in and drink tea, this sheep will be killed soon, give it to me."
"Second aunt, I'll just come, you can rest, I'll work hard, and I'll be fine soon" Gu Zi checked the sheep in his hand.
"That's good, I'll go boil hot water first, Bao'er, you quickly take your sister Caiyun around, girls shouldn't see blood", Bao'er took Lu Caiyun's hand and walked into the room, "Sister Caiyun, let's go see my little fish, it was brought to me by my father in the pond a few days ago, it's beautiful."
Lu Caiyun didn't have any expression, the toad-like face skin was inlaid with a pair of obsidian-like eyes, but it looked wooden and hollow like a dead fish's eyes, all along, only a bold child like Bao'er would be close to her, and the others, either too afraid to approach, or bullied her in every way, if Gu Zi saw it, he could still breathe a sigh of relief for her, if he didn't see it, Lu Caiyun wouldn't say anything, because she couldn't say it, let alone know the joys, sorrows, sorrows, ups and downs, what is bullying, what is praise, this is the root of Lan Fantasy's illness has not been able to cure her。 Bao'er took her and pushed her out of the room, there was a small bed in the room, the bed board was covered with straw and a white-washed dark blue sheet, a ball of cotton wool peeked out from the folded quilt, and at the foot of the bed was a clay pot with a broken hole, and in the clay pot was filled with water a thin black carp and a red carp, only the size of a thumb, Bao'er happily teased the fish with a bamboo stick, and the two fish were frightened and made a mess, "Sister, look! This is my fish." Lu Caiyun's eyes were still dull and empty.
Outside the house, Millet sat next to the stove and worked, Aunt Lin was scooping out hot water and pouring it on it to make the wool fall off better, Millet folded her sleeves, revealing her wheat-yellow arms, and her arms that had been working all year round had thick muscles.
"Bao'er, bring Caiyun out, your brother Guzi is leaving" There was a cry from Aunt Lin outside the door, Bao'er led Lu Caiyun out, Guzi was holding a basket in his hand, which contained a leg of mutton that was still dripping blood, Bao'er threw herself into the arms of Aunt Lin, watched them say a few words, Guzi left with Lu Caiyun, and Aunt Lin sighed: "Your brother Guzi is really a good guy who is diligent and hardworking."
Gu Zi held the basket in one hand and Lu Caiyun in the other, he glanced at Lu Caiyun, how to make his sister happy, she never had any expression on her face, she didn't cry or laugh, his heart seemed to be pinched, if he insisted on following Master Lan's medical skills...... Gu Zi recalled that when he was seven years old, the cold and beautiful woman broke into his house and was about to take away his sister, he fought desperately against that woman, even if he was knocked to the ground by her again and again, and then his father appeared, and he said that woman is the best doctor in the world, there is no disease that she can't cure, with her, Yun'er's illness will be saved. At that time, Gu Zi knelt in front of her, "Please take me away, I want to learn medicine from you to heal my sister", "No need, I am enough, this seat only accepts her as an apprentice" Gu Zi hugged Lan Huan's leg tightly, "No! If you take her, then you must take me away!" Lan Huan's face was unhappy, "Get out!" Gu Zi felt his body light, and he hit the door panel and rolled down, a sharp pain hit him and spit out a mouthful of blood, and he heard the woman say in a hazy way, "This child has good qualifications!" I've already helped him unlock the Spirit Locking Array, teach him well, and he can become a sharp blade on your battlefield in the future", at that time, my father was angry
"He's still a kid, how can you make your own decisions?"
"You don't want it, but you have to teach me well, I want him to be Yun'er's right-hand man, if he can't be it, he can only die for me!"
After Lan Fan finished speaking, he led Lu Caiyun out of the house, and after hearing this, Gu Zi's heart was even colder, and his eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, but he couldn't fall, he still had to follow to protect his sister, but his body couldn't move if he didn't obey the call, and he could only watch the two of them blur more and more in his vision, until the whole world became dark.
Since then, he found that his strength has become greater and greater, every time he goes back to beg his father to teach him martial arts, he has been refused, so he has to secretly turn over his father's classics and run to the back mountain to practice, five years later, Lan Fan came back with Lu Caiyun, but her illness was not cured, Master Lan and his father locked up in the house and talked all day before leaving, and every few days he came to take Yun'er out to learn medical skills, Gu Zi also secretly followed the stealing teacher, and returned with regret every time, he also knew in his heart that he had no chance to learn medical skills, so he could only bury his head in practicing martial arts, if his sister's illness really could not be cured, and he protected, no one could bully。 Gu Zi secretly gritted his teeth, clenched Lu Caiyun's hand, and made up his mind in his heart, when I am a little stronger, I will take you around the world to find famous doctors and medicines all over the world. Gu Zi recalled that the man in black clothes and white hair, his strength was unfathomable, he had no power to resist in front of him, he was still too weak after all, and he had to go to his father's room again, Gu Zi secretly decided. Continuing to walk forward with his sister, a child about seven or eight years old ran over at the front of the alley, it was the eldest son of the village chief's family, his cheeks were flushed because he was running too quickly, and his face was even redder, and his face was panicked, "Brother Guzi, your father ran away with someone."
"Brother Guzi, your father is really gone, and everyone in the village is saying that the beautiful woman who came to your family is a monster, and she deliberately came to abduct your father, so that other monsters can attack this village" The dog baby trotted next to the two, Gu Zi led Lu Caiyun to the door of the house in a hurry, the yard was full of men, women and children in the village, after all, the demon cutter who guarded the village was gone, which was bound to cause the village to be like a lamb to the slaughter, let the monsters plunder, the village chief is a one-eyed man about forty years old, it is said that he was also an excellent candidate for the demon cutter, but unfortunately when he first went to the battlefield, he was gouged out by the demon An eye, at this moment he was sitting on the couch in the main house, smoking a cigarette, holding a red gauze scarf in his hand, the scarf was dyed with black ink, it seemed to be written something, seeing that Gu Zi was back, the village chief came down from the couch and handed Gu Zi the red gauze scarf。
"Guzi, you are back, you can see what is written, you also know, except for your family, there is no one in this village who can read, tell everyone what your father wrote!" Guzi took it, a fragrance came to his face, it was the smell of the red gauze, he opened the folded light yarn, the words inside appeared in front of him, and a red lip print was printed in the empty place. Gu Zi picked up his hand and pinched the edge of the red yarn to avoid the lip print, and muttered in his mouth:
"My son Guzi personally opened, Chunhua seventeen years has passed in a hurry, see you are getting taller and taller, Wei Rui Xuanyu, the father is very pleased, but Shaohua is easy to pass, the true love is difficult to but, for the father has been empty for decades, now to find a beautiful woman, the good fate is difficult to continue, the daughter does not change, the two of us are willing to be winged birds in the sky, and we are willing to do even the branches on the ground, never give up, and the relationship between them will not end up in the vicissitudes of life. I am willing to follow my beloved wife to walk through thousands of mountains and rivers, no regrets in this life, don't read it!"
The villagers pricked up their ears and couldn't understand what the letter was about, so they asked Uncle Niu, who was anxious, "Guzi, what your father said, why don't I understand a word?"
Gu Zi thought about it, but didn't know what to say, and the villagers echoed Uncle Niu's words, wanting him to make it clear, "My father said that he has something to go out."
The villagers panicked
"Then when will he come back? It's not peaceful outside, the monsters are running around, the only demon cutter in this village is gone, if the monsters run into our village one day, we won't all become lambs to be slaughtered, your father and we have been familiar with each other for decades, he is such an honest person, he must have been confused by that beautiful woman, maybe it's still a female monster, I heard that the current demon level can be transformed into a human form, and the low-level one can also wear human skin."
After Uncle Niu finished speaking, a bitter female voice sounded, "I said, where is there such a beautiful woman in this world, it must be a monster"
After speaking, he pinched the arm of a thin yellow man next to her, the man Gu Zi had seen, it was one of the men who was lying outside the fence this morning, the village chief sat on the edge of the couch and didn't know what he was thinking, Gu Zi carefully looked at the words on the red yarn, and blurted out "This is not my father's handwriting"
The village chief's eyes lit up, "Are you sure?"
"Sure" Gu Zi replied firmly, "I am already familiar with my father's handwriting, this letter is not wrong, it must have been written by that woman, she took my father away"
The villagers panicked, Master Feng is so powerful that the demon cutter can be easily confused, the current situation is turbulent, I heard that there is a comeback of demons underground, and the country is in the south, in this barren village in the north, it is a great luck to have a demon cutter to guard, now the demon cutter is gone, the north is remote, and there is no protection of the national capital, I am afraid that the target of that group of monsters is them, the more I think about it, the more scared I am, the villagers have looked at the village chief hoping to get a good plan, the village chief sipped his cigarette holder out of his mind.
The call of Uncle Niu pulled him back, and white smoke came out of the village chief's mouth and nose, he thought for a while and said:
"Guzi, you are grown up by us, you have been obedient and sensible since you were a child, and you often help the villagers, everyone actually treats you as their own children, and what delicious food is shared with you for the first time, at this time the village is in trouble, you ......" Before the words were finished, a rumbling sound accompanied by the ground movement, there was a commotion in the crowd of villagers, and a few curious children ran out and exclaimed, "There is a black cloud coming out of the ground."
Gu Zi also pulled Lu Caiyun out with the villagers, and there was a black gas on the mountainside in the north, and the black gas climbed to form a black cloud, and suddenly, there was a thing wriggling in the place where the black gas was bubbling, knocking down a few trees around it, and that thing completely climbed out, that is A giant bat, with red eyes, barbed fangs hanging from its mouth, and barbs on its tail, with the incitement of the two wings swaying up and down at the same time, a black gas came out of the bat, the giant bat was flying straight to the village, the villagers were so frightened that they ran around, the fleeing crowd bumped into Lu Caiyun's side, and fled in all directions, Gu Zi saw that Lu Caiyun was motionless, he must have been frightened, Gu Zi took her hand "Don't be afraid, follow me."
Lu Caiyun raised his head without emotion, Gu Zi saw it, there was no fear in her eyes, the bat was getting closer and closer, and was about to swoop down to attack the two of them, Gu Zi pulled Lu Caiyun in his arms to protect it, a crash sounded, and he was not attacked by the bat, Gu Zi raised his head and saw that the giant bat was hitting a layer of golden light on the top of the village over and over again, he remembered that the golden light was the defense line laid by his father, as long as the monsters wanted to attack the village, this golden light would intercept them and suck away their demon power, so that the bat would make a piercing hissing sound every time it hit。
Gu Zi ran home, picked up the small silver bow and rushed out, he liked this bow very much when he saw it at first sight, and begged his father to give it to him, but only to get a harsh reprimand from his father: "This is for girls, what do you say when a big man uses girls' things!" The young Guzi thought that this was something left for Yun'er, so he no longer fought its idea, after many years, his father did not give it to anyone, the bow has been covered with a layer of dust, still can not hide its edge, light as a feather, strings like silver, Guzi weighed this bow, sighed: good thing! Gu Zi searched all over the house and did not find the arrow to match it, so he had to take out the stone arrow he usually used for hunting, Gu Zi put on the bowstring, pulled it into a full moon shape, aimed at the giant bat that was hitting the golden light layer, the arrow from the string shot straight into the green clouds, and was soon blocked by the bat throwing out the tail wing full of barbs, and then, a piercing hissing roar sounded, the bat's body swayed up and down, as if it was injured, except for the grain, no one around found it, just a silver light shot out with the arrow, when the stone arrow was blocked by the bat, the silver light appeared, submerged into the tail of the bat, think about it, it was the silver light that hurt the bat, Gu Zi suddenly realized: this bow is actually used like this。 He pulled the bow out of an arc close to the full moon with great anticipation, let go, only to hear the sound of the strings, the bow did not react again, and seeing the movements of the grain, the bat fled in panic like a frightened bird. Gu Zi tried to pull again, but the silver light never appeared again, and the villagers saw that Gu Zi had beaten away the monsters, and they came out of their hiding places one after another, and their eyes at Gu Zi had an indescribable meaning.
The villagers came out one after another to surround the grain and exclaimed, "What a hero at a young age."
A relatively strong man stepped forward, patted Gu Zi on the shoulder and said, and the villagers echoed "yes, yes". The man continued: "With you, our Qingyun Village is no longer afraid of monster attacks, from now on, you are the demon cutter of our Qingyun Village, village chief, don't you say?"
The village chief who was ordered stood outside the crowd with a smile, the wrinkles on his face twisted. Gu Zi excused himself, "I just relied on brute force and a little luck to beat the demon away, and I am far from cutting the demon, I dare not dare to be it, and I hope everyone will choose another god."
"Deserve it, you can afford it, now that your father is gone, you just take over his position, after you are a demon cutter, you should make a contribution to protect the people" The village chief took a puff of cigarette, "Guzi, the big guy is not thin to you on weekdays", Guzi looked embarrassed, "I know it, but the villagers should also know that my father usually shoulders the duty of cutting demons to defend this village for more than ten years, and now he has disappeared for no reason, and the children should find their father back, and the relatives are still there, and they dare not trespass."
A sharp female voice sounded, "Hey, where is he missing, obviously disgusted with our poor mountains and bad waters here and eloped with that fox spirit" The thin yellow man beside her pulled the woman, and the woman threw him a warning look in anger, Gu Zi continued, "Just now the big guys also saw that golden light, it was laid by my father, as long as everyone returns to the village before the earth moves the demon out, even if the demon is not cut, everyone can be safe."
The villagers looked at each other, and Uncle Niu asked, "What do you mean by this, Guzi?" and "I decided to leave the village with my sister and go to my father."
