Chapter 127: A Fatal Misunderstanding
Ishan was gasping for air, almost exhausted, but he was obviously more afraid of death than me. Along the way, he didn't say a word to stop and rest, until he ran to the side of the small courtyard of this farmhouse, and then sat down on the ground, and then lay down and gasped for breath, and after a long time, Yishan grinned with difficulty: "I'm tired to death...... I'm almost exhausted...... Brother Ergou, I feel like half of my life is about to be gone! ”
I replied angrily: "Your life has already gone for more than half of you, if it weren't for me and my master arriving in time, in two or three days, the ghost painting demon will start eating!" ”
"Eat? What's to eat? What are you eating?! Yishan asked in horror, but he quickly opened his eyes wide, looked down at his body bones, and suddenly exclaimed, "No, no...... You can't eat me, do you?! ”
I didn't speak, nodding slightly.
"Ahh Yi Shan suddenly jumped up, banged on the door of the farmhouse with both hands, and then shouted anxiously, "Is there anyone in the family?" Open the door! Open the door and let me in! ”
After a while, I heard an impatient voice from inside the room...... "Who?" In the middle of the night, what is the noise?! ”
When someone came out of it, I saw that it was an old man, who seemed to be awakened from a deep sleep, and rushed out with some impatience shirtless, and then soon followed by a young man, who seemed to be his son, also followed, and I saw the menacing appearance of the two men, and hurriedly pulled Yishan, and said, "Yishan! You stop, since there are people living here, there should be a family god to protect us, we entered this house, we must be able to resist for a while, but you are so noisy, can people let us in?! ”
The old man asked angrily, "Who are you?" Where did it come from? ”
When I heard this, I hurriedly pulled Yishan behind me, and solemnly signaled him not to talk nonsense, everything depends on my actions...... "This old man, the two of us were originally collecting medicine in the nearby mountains, but we got lost after dark, my brother was a little scared, so he ran to shout in a panic, it is indeed no courtesy, not thoughtful, and I hope that the old man and the eldest brother will forgive me." ”
"Oh, then what are you waiting for, come in, this neighborhood is deserted, that is, our two live here to hunt." The old man motioned for his son to open the gate, and while inviting us in, he said: "We are not actually the local Miao people, but the Han people who came from the north, every year at this time of year, our father and son will come to this place to hunt, you see this simple little courtyard, is the place where we lived for a period of time when we repaired the cover, and in seven or eight days, we should leave the Yunnan-Guizhou Mountains, you are also lucky, you met our grandfather, if you meet a beast or a mountain spirit and a ghost, then you will be in trouble!" ”
When I entered the house, the old man's son lit the oil lamp, and I glanced left and right by the firelight, and except for some hanging prey, the room was really simple, with only two small beds, which seemed to be the place where the father and son slept. But it's better to have a place to settle down and flee than to be exposed!
Immediately afterwards, the old man waved his hand: "Go and take out some of our food and water for them to eat and drink, you see how tired they are, it's like running for their lives!" ”
"I'm ...... We are just running for our lives......" As soon as Yishan was nervous, he opened his mouth and said our true intentions.
"What?" The old man stood up and exclaimed urgently, "What are you coming from?" Make it clear?! If you're robbers or thieves, you're going to be polite to you! ”
I sighed deeply, I really wanted to kick Yi Shan out, but I glared at Yi Shan, signaled him to stop talking nonsense, and explained: "Old man, you misunderstood, I am a disciple of Yang Yuanshan, the master of the Maoshan Sect Tantric Sect, my name is Li Ergou, I am a cultivator, I originally went into the mountains to look for him, he was in the mountains to collect medicine and got lost, my master and I were entrusted by his mother to look for him, but I found him, my master was separated, so I came to the old man by chance." ”
The old man first looked at me vigilantly, and finally nodded slightly: "It turned out to be a Taoist priest who cultivated, well, I can't believe anything else, we can still trust the Taoist priest, don't mind Mr. Ergou, we are hunting in this deep mountain and old forest, and we are always cautious, these places, anything can appear, not only wild beasts!" ”
I brought something to eat and drink, and I devoured it with Ishan.
Seeing our food, the old man smiled slightly, and told us not to worry, but at this moment, the old man's son ran back from outside and whispered something to the old man. When the old man heard this, his face suddenly changed greatly, and I was stunned.
"You two, your name is Li Ergou, so he is the one named Yishan?" The old man turned away from me, and his eyes glared at Yishan on the side, which frightened Yishan to hide behind me, but the old man continued to say angrily: "Do you still want to run?" Where else do you want to run?! ”
I hurriedly stopped Yishan behind me and asked the old man, "Old man, what do you mean by this?" Why can't I understand? Also, how do you know his name is Yishan?! ”
The old man frowned, and shouted angrily: "You still lie to me, this old man, what are you talking about getting lost, it's just nonsense!" The one named Yishan, went into the mountains to collect medicine and saw a beautiful big girl in a mountain family, so he put them to sleep, and lived in someone's house for several days, but the family's family wanted to keep him as a son-in-law, he was good, and found your helper to get him away, and now the big girl is here, just crying outside the gate and saying that he wants to find you, Mr. Ergou, don't stop you, people are also a small couple, why do you care so much about their own family affairs? ”
"Huh?!"
Hearing this, I screamed almost at the same time as Yishan, the old man didn't know, thinking that the eldest girl of the family had found it, but in fact, it was a ghost...... actually made up a reason that was more like the truth than ours, and won the sympathy of the old man. It made me a person who is not human inside and out, and actually said that I broke up their marriage, what kind of thing is this?!
The old man immediately exclaimed angrily, "Ahhhh You, whose name is Yishan, will go home with the eldest girl immediately, and you, Mr. Ergou, if you are not an old man, I said you, how can you break up the little couple? Let's do it, let the eldest girl named Yishan go home, you can stay, where should you go back tomorrow at dawn, don't break up other people's marriages in the future, you know?! ”
Seeing the old man's son pushing Yishan out, I hurriedly shouted, "I can't let him go back with that woman!" The woman...... Alas! You can't drive Yishan outside, old man, if you really want him to go out, then I can go out with him, but can't you keep the two of us here together?! "I can't tell the truth if I think about it, and if I say it, then the two of them are done.
Sighing, they drove him out of the gate, and in a blink of an eye I saw the door slamming shut, and then Yishan and I turned around and slapped the door panel, and shouted in unison: "Open the door!" Open the door! You can't lock us out! ”
