Chapter 217: The Old Lady Wants to Eat Dog Meat
The old man didn't seem to know that danger was coming, and he kept kowtowing, but the two big dogs sensed it, and when they saw that their begging was fruitless, and saw that their master was in danger, they remembered to bite the hem of the old man's shirt and drag it back!
Yan Rumei was unmoved, and her palm was wrapped in a fierce wind and slapped towards the old man's head, but she stopped less than half an inch away from the old man's scalp.
The gray hair on the old man's head was messy by the strong wind, but the person didn't react much, and he didn't know at all that he had stood in front of the ghost gate, and he was still kowtowing there like pounding garlic.
Yan Rumei believed the old man's words that he claimed to be deaf and unresponsive. Although she was annoyed in her heart, she also knew that killing such a weak ordinary old man really had no sense of accomplishment, and saying it was just revenge on the two dogs, and it was still her who was ashamed.
What's more, Xue'er spoke leisurely at this time: "For the sake of two dogs, you won't let go of an ordinary person?" ”
Yan Rumei withdrew her palm stupidly, and glared at Xue'er hatefully: "Shen Yixue! ”
Xue'er raised her head and did not hide the mockery in her eyes: "Am I wrong?" ”
"You-"
Yan Rumei wanted to say, "You think I don't dare to kill you", but then I thought about it again, from the time she used up the good true qi that she had gathered so hard to gather and walked on her feet, she had already said countless times along the way, but it was she who was deflated, because she really didn't dare, so the words came to her mouth and swallowed back raw.
She snorted coldly, stopped looking at Xue'er, looked down at the old man again, and said impatiently: "Okay, okay, don't kneel there and pretend to be pitiful, hurry up and find clothes for the old lady to change into......"
Yan Rumei talked for a long time, only to find that the old man was still lying on the ground and kowtowing, and there was no tendency to stop at all, and suddenly he woke up to the fact that the other party was really behind his ears, so he had to take a step forward and stretch out a foot to kick the old man.
After stretching out his feet, he suddenly realized that he didn't even have shoes on his feet, which was not only not the slightest intimidation, but more like a kind of teasing.
Thinking that she had provoked an ordinary old farmer with gray hair and a wrinkled face, Yan Rumei suddenly had goosebumps all over her body, and she was disgusting to death!
The old man was caught off guard and almost hit Yan Rumei's feet, but fortunately, Yan Rumei dodged quickly, which avoided more embarrassment in the future.
However, the old man was frightened, and subconsciously itched backwards, his body lost balance, and the two dogs pulled back hard, and suddenly fell on his back and didn't get up for a long time!
Yan Rumei frowned, her face was disgusted, her eyes rolled, and she turned her head to look at Xue'er: "You are a good person, you are gentle and kind, why don't you go and help this old man?" ”
Xue'er rolled her eyes and muttered in a low voice: "I'll help you!" ”
When she passed by Yan Rumei's side, she lowered her voice again, raised her eyebrows and said, "Men and women don't kiss, right?" ”
Yan Rumei gritted her teeth angrily, looked at Xue'er's back, and wanted to break her neck, but in the end, she endured it again and again, disgusting as if she had swallowed three catties of stool, and her expression was quite exciting.
Xue'er helped the old man up, and Wen Yan comforted a few words, but she had to raise her voice to talk to the other party, and finally her throat hurt when she "shouted".
But I finally figured out that from this pear grove to the east, at most two miles away, is the village where the old man has lived for generations. The village is not large, the population is small, and it is relatively poor, and these pear trees are not his family's, but planted by four families, but they are just guarded in turn.
In fact, he shouldn't have guarded it tonight, but there was a sudden break in the house, an old man and a young man, a man and a woman wanted to stay, and it was not easy to provoke when they looked at it, and the girl took out a big ingot of silver that he had never seen in his life, so the daughter-in-law was busy with food, and the son wanted to protect his daughter-in-law, and did not dare to leave the house, and in order to make room for the two people, so the old man automatically took two big dogs and wanted to spend the night in the shack guarding the pear tree.
The three of them walked all the way and said all the way, Yan Rumei originally wanted to continue to ask about the situation of the two people who stayed in the old man's house, but it was only more than two miles, and it didn't take much time to get there, the old man's ears were back, and a sentence often had to be repeated three or four times to hear it clearly, Yan Rumei was impatient, so she asked Xue'er to ask.
Although Xue'er didn't dare to flee, she was not afraid of her, and the result of the support was countless white eyes and grimaces, plus a stomach full of anger that had nowhere to attack.
Therefore, until she walked to the entrance of the village, Yan Rumei only asked one question, that is: "You said, it was an old man and a young woman who went to your house to stay?" ”
The old man listened in a daze, looked at Yan Rumei with dizzy old eyes, and then looked at Xue'er, and said with a blank face that he didn't hear clearly.
Yan Rumei glared at Xue'er, Xue'er rolled her eyes at her, turned to the old man and repeated it loudly.
The old man nodded, and Yan Rumei was about to continue to ask about the characteristics of these two people, but just moved her mouth, and before the words came out, she already heard the sound of a dog barking!
This time it's not one, two, but many!
Yan Rumei estimates that there are many families in this small village, at least how many dogs, and the dogs bark at night, and the sound is simply magnificent and monstrous!
She didn't understand, this village was even poorer than the Liujia Village where Xue'er went yesterday, how could she still have the spare energy to raise so many dogs, and they were still so ...... Aggressive?
However, since the dog barked, it would naturally alarm the people in the village, and her question was just a question, with no answer.
Therefore, until she walked to the door of the old man's house, Yan Rumei only knew that there was a man and a woman who came to stay at the old man's house, the man was older, and the woman was young.
Yan Rumei glared at Xue'er hatefully, and that gaze naturally blamed her for being too loud and disturbing the dogs in the village.
Xue'er glanced at the other party unconvinced, and said in a low voice: "You asked me to ask!" ”
"You ......" Yan Rumei vomited blood angrily, when did this start, even the dog had to fight against her? So the more I looked at the two dogs that followed the old man, the more unpleasant I became, and I wanted to go up and kick them to death one by one, only thinking that one of my feet was still bare, so I had to give up.
Finally, when she walked to the door of the old man's house, Yan Rumei looked at the old man's back, and then looked at Xue'er on the side, and said hatefully: "You tell the old man, wait for the old lady to eat dog meat!" ”
Looking at Yan Rumei, who had a fierce face, Xue'er raised her eyebrows directly and chose to ignore it.
The old man's house was even more dilapidated than the house in Liujia Village, where Xue'er was located last night, only half of the adobe wall was crumbling, and the collapsed part was directly blocked with thorn branches, and I was afraid that even a cat or dog would not be able to prevent it.
Three dilapidated earthen houses, simple wooden doors everywhere to ventilate and leak, as for the windows, they can only be described as dilapidated, simply a few broken wooden planks are struggling to support them!
Hearing the knock on the street door, a young couple came out of the house almost at the same time, greeted the old man, looked at each other differently, and the young man opened his mouth and asked the old man in a loud voice, "Dad, why did you come back suddenly?" ”
His voice was loud enough for the old man to hear clearly, and the old man looked sad and said to the young woman behind the young man: "Xiuxiu, go and bring a set of your clothes and accompany this lady, our rhubarb and two black have torn other people's clothes......"
The woman called "Xiuxiu" was stunned for a moment, and her face was already reluctant, but with previous experience, she could also see that the two women behind her father-in-law were very human, so she silently endured it, answered, and turned back to the house.
"Wait!" Yan Rumei stopped the woman and threw out a silver ingot, "Take your best clothes!" ”
The woman was stunned for a moment, but she didn't have the ability to catch it, and fell directly to her feet, she hurriedly squatted down to pick it up, and looked up at Yan Rumei, with a hint of joy on her face, and then turned around and hurriedly turned back into the adobe house.
At this time, the old man was looking at the young man and asked, "What happened to those two distinguished guests?" Don't disturb people. ”
As soon as these words came out, Yan Rumei could no longer care about showing disdain to the young woman, after all, in her opinion, the old man said that a man and a woman who had come to stay before were not simple characters when they heard it, and if they didn't get it, they were passing by in the rivers and lakes.
But he didn't want the young man to say, "Those two distinguished guests are already gone!" ”
"Gone?" The old man muttered a repeat, his dark face full of wrinkles, and the wrinkles were deeper, and he was about to ask, but the young man had already opened his mouth to explain: "Not long ago, that girl suddenly disliked the room...... Messy, so ...... So all of a sudden he left, and even the silver ingots ......"
"How's it going?" Compared with whether or not to stay overnight with those two people, the old man was more concerned with whether the silver given by the other party had been recovered, so he stepped forward, grabbed the young man's arm, and asked anxiously.
The young man naturally knew his father's thoughts, and hurriedly said, "I didn't take it back, so I left it." “
After speaking, he swallowed his saliva, and unnaturally glanced at Yan Rumei, who had a cold face and followed behind the old man, and looked at Xue'er, who had nothing to do with him and didn't care about him, and hurriedly lowered his head.
Even Yan Rumei thought that this young man was amazed by her enchanting and charming, and she didn't think about it, but since the person who stayed there before suddenly left, she just stayed in the night, although it was much more shabby and dilapidated, but it was better than sleeping in the wilderness.
At this time, the young woman happened to come out with a peach-colored cotton shirt, although the fabric was average and the style was outdated, but it must really be her best piece.
She lowered her head and held it in front of Yan Rumei, and invited Yan Rumei into the house to change. No matter how open Yan Rumei is, it is impossible to change her clothes in public, so naturally there is no reason to refuse.
Yan Rumei followed the woman and took two steps, and glared back at Xue'er uneasily, her eyes full of warning.
Xue'er shrugged her shoulders and sighed in her heart, the world is so big, but there is no place for her, she doesn't follow Yan Rumei, she can't go back for half a day, I'm afraid she will meet Xuanyuan again. Ke Xuanyuan ......
She sighed in her heart, how much difference can there be between escaping and not escaping? Following Yan Rumei to cultivate for a while is just to store more internal strength for some time, and then be taken back by Yan Rumei to sacrifice to the Chengtian Sect Master.
But she didn't want Yan Rumei to be relieved after all, and said to Xue'er: "You, come in." ”
Xue'er silently walked two steps, and as soon as she followed Yan Rumei to the dilapidated wooden door, she saw Yan Rumei turn around again and threw two silver ingots to the old man and the young man: "When the old lady finishes changing her clothes, she will eat dog meat!" ”
