Chapter 5: My brother is back
Time flies quickly, and in a blink of an eye, Tang Wanwan has passed his twelfth birthday.
Gu Zhifeng and his wife have never been out of the valley in the past ten years, and they have been accompanying her.
A few days ago, her funny dad deliberately pulled some of his hair to make a fake beard.
Shangguan Lan is too, she has made her makeup a little older, for fear that she will see the flaws.
Tang Wanwan watched them like this, and she didn't make it clear, she knew that they were all doing it for her good.
It snowed last night, and the whole valley was in vain this morning, Tang Wanwan suddenly became interested, and insisted on going out to build a snowman, Xiaorou couldn't resist her, so she could only accompany her to go outside to be frozen.
After piling up for a while, she looked back and saw a pheasant limping past not far away, and she remembered that when it snowed heavily as a child, she often went to the snow with her adoptive mother to catch frozen or trapped small game meat, which was the best thing in the world she had eaten before she had not crossed.
"Let's go hunting in the wilderness!"
"Oh, don't, miss, it's dangerous to see the snow outside so big and so deep. β
Xiaorou didn't want to go, she was most afraid of the cold.
"Then I'll go myself. β
Tang Wanwan knew her weakness, and he didn't care about her, so he made a gesture to go out of the valley.
Xiao Rou sighed, turned around and took the hunting tools and followed her reluctantly, seeing that she had succeeded, Tang Wanwan smiled in her heart.
"Hurry up, Xiao Rou, look, there is a rabbit that can't move, let's hurry up and lean over quietly." β
"Miss, slow down!"
"It's still moving, I'm going to stop it. β
Tang Wanwan blocked the direction of the rabbit's running, because the snow was too deep, the rabbit reacted a little sluggishly, at this time Xiaorou pounced, but did not think that the soles of her feet did not step on the ground and fell to the rabbit.
The rabbit was stunned for a moment, and then ran away in a hurry, causing Tang to jump to his feet in anger.
She knew that Xiao Rou deliberately let go of the rabbit, and after ten years, she knew that the people in the valley were all good at martial arts, especially Xiao Rou.
It's just that she is very soft-hearted, she can't see small animals eaten, and she herself is a complete vegetarian.
Tang Wanwan was afraid that she would be malnourished, so he asked her to eat meat several times, but she refused for various reasons.
I feel a little disappointed, I knew I wouldn't have brought her here, how good it would be to bring a fox, alas!
Thinking of the fox, she thought of last year, it was also snowing heavily, and the valley where the fox took her had an unknown little red fruit, and the taste made her drool when she thought about it.
Thinking in his heart, he walked in that direction, and the road seemed to be a little far, so he simply changed to a trot.
Seeing that her young lady ran away, Xiaorou was a little inexplicable, but she still followed quickly.
The distance is far away, and you can still see her feet a few inches off the ground from time to time, floating up a few steps, like a female ghost walking on TV.
Tang Wanwan was no stranger to this, she used to want to learn martial arts, especially light martial arts. It's just that Gu Zhifeng didn't allow her to learn, and they didn't tell her the reason, she made a fuss, but it didn't work, and she was still very envious of Xiaorou in her heart.
After a while, they came to the place where they picked the little red fruit last time and ate it, Tang Wanwan hurriedly ran forward and picked one and threw it into his mouth: "Well, it's still the same taste...... It's so delicious, Xiaorou, you can taste it!"
"Huh, look what that is!"
Tang Wanwan, who was chewing a handful of fruit in his mouth, suddenly noticed that there was something white not far in front of him, and the color was close to the color of snow, so he couldn't find it at all if he didn't pay attention.
Xiao Rou's eyesight was better than hers, and she could see at a glance that it was a person: "Miss be careful!"
There had never been a living person in this Hidden Moon Valley for a hundred miles, and Xiao Rou immediately became vigilant.
"Let's go over and see. Tang Wanwan was blocked behind her, and stretched out his little head to look at the place where the man was lying.
The snow is so heavy that I don't know if I froze to death......
"Miss, let's leave it alone, the valley master said that those who come to Hidden Moon Valley are not good people, and acquaintances have already been led by medicine boys, so they won't fall alone in this deep mountain wilderness, and the snow is still so heavy. β
"No, I'm a little miracle doctor appointed by my father and mother, if I don't save it, how can I be worthy of this title?"
"But..."
"Don't say it, let's go over!"
Tang Wanwan walked out from behind her and walked straight forward, thinking that the ancients were really careful, worried that they would be assassinated all day long, which was also speechless.
It's just that she doesn't know that people from outside are basically here to arrest her parents for refining medicine.
Especially the emperor, I don't know which demon Dao I believed, saying that her parents were immortal beings with immortal bodies, which were medicines in themselves, so he sent many people to search for the two of them, and wanted to push them into the alchemy furnace to practice the elixir.
The emperor is still like this, let alone those with ulterior motives.
Xiao Rou was afraid that she was in danger, so she blocked her behind her again, and she slowly leaned over, but before she could get closer, she was swept out by an unknown object and fell heavily into the snow.
Then a mouthful of blood spat out, staining the snow beside her red, and then she fainted with a tilt of her head. Looking at the formation, fortunately, the snow is soft enough, otherwise the little life will have to be played.
Before Tang Wanwan could check her injuries, he was entangled in a gray unknown object, and he lifted her into the air, and the thing shook her a few times, and then threw her out like garbage, and landed in the snow far away with a "poof".
Fortunately, the fall didn't hurt too much, and after a long time, the thing threw her to measure the distance!
"Squeak, squeak...", a strange sound sounded, as if something was running fast in the snow, and before she could raise her head, she found that it seemed to be dark in front of her, and she slowly raised her head in some fear: "Mom, what kind of monster is this!"
I saw that it was terrifyingly large, like a big vine that could walk, and there were many small tentacles-like vines branching out from the main trunk.
I thought to myself: "It turns out that I was thrown by this thing just now, and it seems that I won't be able to survive this time...... Mom, I'm coming back......"
As soon as she thought of Gu Zhifeng and Shangguan Lan, she was a little reluctant, a little difficult to choose, thinking about it, tears flowed out of her eyes, and the monster who was about to attack her again stopped inexplicably.
It seemed to tilt its head and use one of its tentacles to point the tears on Tang Wanwan's face, Tang Wanwan thought it was going to pinch itself, and fainted in fright.
It's just that before she fainted, she seemed to see a white figure walking over, and raised the long sword in her hand......
γγγγγγγγγ
By the time she woke up, it was already after dinner.
Gu Zhifeng and Shangguan Lan stood in front of her bed, they seemed to have been sitting for a long time, and they both looked a little tired.
"Dad, mother..."
"Ah, the bend is awake!"
The reason why Gu Zhifeng called her Wan'er was because a few years ago, he always liked Lan'er and Lan'er to call her, and many times she responded before she could go to Shangguan Lan, no way, people just called her like this in private, which made both of them very embarrassed.
Tang Wanwan couldn't stand it anymore, so he was angry and said that he wanted to name himself again, and the two of them gave up showing their affection and let her take it herself, she pointed to the half moon in the sky and said to them: "Just call it Gu Wanwan, I like it!"
Seeing that the situation was appropriate and the name was good, the two agreed, and since then, the embarrassing thing has never happened again, and everyone is relieved.
"How is it, are you still uncomfortable?" Shangguan Lan hurriedly helped her up, and Xiaoyun also stepped forward and handed over a bowl of decoction.
Shangguan Lan tested the temperature and saw that it was no longer hot, so she scooped a spoonful and fed her: "Come, drink some ginseng soup to suppress the shock." β
She took a sip, suddenly remembered Xiao Rou, pushed away the spoon and asked, "Mother, how is Xiao Rou?"
"She suffered internal injuries, and now she has fallen asleep after drinking medicine, and there is no major problem, don't worry. β
"Oh... How did we get back?"
"I'll drag you back!" an unfamiliar male voice sounded, and then a man walked in outside the door.
"Are you...?"
"Gu Zhifeng, you say!"
"Don't be big or small!" Shangguan Lan put down the spoon and slapped him and said, "Bastard boy, I don't even respect Lao Tzu after going out for a few years, look at how I clean you up..."
"the child, don't pay attention to him, he's angry in his heart!" Gu Zhifeng didn't seem to care.
"It's good to know. β
The man's eyes rolled, paced a few steps, and magnified a handsome and heroic face in front of Tang Wanwan: "I said that you two can, you can make a sister for me while I'm not at home, and I was born okay, why do I feel so different from you, didn't you pick it up?"
"What are you talking about!" Shangguan Lan's temper came up and slapped him again, but this time he hid.
Gu Zhifeng was also angry now, but he didn't forget to look at Tang Wanwan's face, for fear that she would take it seriously.
Seeing that her expression didn't change, he and Shangguan Lan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "Whew, it's okay, it's okay, my daughter is calm and smart, I don't believe this kid to sow discord." β
It's just that Tang Wanwan originally knew his life experience, so he didn't think it was strange.
"Okay, then I'll pick it up, I'm still so uneasy when I'm old, I don't want to give birth to such a small one, let's say it first, I won't bring it!"
"I don't want you to bring it!" Tang Wanwan did not show weakness, and spoke before Shangguan Lan made a move.
"Yo he, my temper is quite like a mother!"
"That's it! It turns out that you are my brother, and you can look good, but how can you talk like a vinegar jar, it's all sour!"
Tang Wanwan covered his nose with one hand, as if he smelled vinegar.
Gu Zichun clenched his fists and threatened: "I'll clean you up later!"
"Ah, father, mother, brother said that he would clean me up in the future!"
She deliberately pretended to be pitiful, hugged the two of them and sprinkled herself, thinking that this cheap big brother was not that kind of bad person at first glance, otherwise he wouldn't have pulled her and Xiaorou back from the snow, it seems that he is just like Gu Zhifeng, he likes to play tricks.
Gu Zhifeng and the others couldn't help but look at Gu Zichun again, he was not displeased, he just scared Tang Wanwan, got up and went back to his room.
Tang Wanwan thought to himself, "It seems that I have to have a good relationship with him in the future, so that I can go outside and have a look!"
has been here for more than ten years, and she has never been out of the valley, and she yearns for it when she thinks about it!
