Chapter 66: Crossing the Red Water River
The red water is choppy, and the wind is gusting.
The old woman changed her previous kind appearance and looked at Chu Xingqiao gloomily.
Realizing that something was wrong, she didn't run away immediately, but asked puzzledly:
"Do you know me?"
The old woman shook her head slowly, a smile on the corner of her mouth.
"Then why are you lying to me? You didn't want to take me to the Taiyou Sect at all, did you? ”
The old woman smiled and nodded:
"That's right! The old decay will never allow you mercenary guys to enter the Taiyou Sect! ”
"Huh?"
Chu Xingqiao was stunned, and said in his heart I didn't do anything, how did this mercenary and sanctimonious hat come up?
"Old woman, you just said that you don't know me, since you don't know me, how do you know that I am mercenary?"
"Humph!"
The old woman snorted coldly and said:
"From the time I saw the two treasures you were wearing, the old man already knew that you must have come here for the Qiankun Order of the Taiyou Sect, but just now I asked you, but you said that you don't know that this is the Taiyou Sect, what is it if you are not sanctimonious?"
"Old woman, although I do want to go to the Taiyou Sect, I really didn't know that the Taiyou Sect was on this mountain, and if I really knew where the Taiyou Sect was, how could I follow you to such a place?"
Although Chu Xingqiao's explanation seemed to be very reasonable, the old woman didn't seem to change her opinion of her, but turned around and looked at her carefully and said angrily:
"Huh! You look innocent with clear eyebrows, do you think you believe you if you are so old? ”
"Mother-in-law, how can you say that!"
Chu Xingqiao was a little angry and asked indignantly, but the old woman suddenly said sarcastically:
"It's worthy of the Seven Kills, and they are all good at sanctimoniousness! If it weren't for you people, why would Ze'er be forced into the night! ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw that the mother-in-law suddenly pulled out a red rope from her waist and tied it to Chu Xingqiao's calf at once.
Chu Xingqiao was startled, and found that his legs were as if they were being sucked from below by a force, and they were so heavy that they couldn't move.
"Mother-in-law, what are you doing here!"
Before Chu Xingqiao could finish speaking, the mother-in-law kicked her into the river.
"Mother——! Poof——! Mother-in-law! ——”
Although Chu Xingqiao struggled hard, the heavy force on her calf pulled down, and soon she sank into the water.
Are you going to die? I seem to have just started to live......
It's really not good, it's so cold, I'm falling, this bright red water, is this the last thing I see......
I...... It seems that there is still a lot to be done......
"Whew-"
Suddenly, Chu Xingqiao felt a stream of warm air being blown into his mouth......
Then a large warm hand took both of his arms.
"Poof—cough, cough, cough."
Chu Xingqiao took a few greedy breaths as if she had never breathed before she calmed down, and she opened her eyes suddenly, a handsome young man was touching his forehead with concern.
What a handsome boy......
She was thinking about something when a shiver made her regain consciousness, and she sat up sharply, looking warily at the boy who had saved her.
"Girl, the water of the Red River is extremely cold water, and the cold is very easy to invade the body, you have to hurry up to see if you have a fever, if you really have a fever, you must find the Red River mother-in-law to get an antidote."
Mother-in-law Red River!
"You're in a group?"
As he spoke, Chu Xingqiao stepped back again.
Seeing Chu Xingqiao's hostile eyes, the young man showed his white teeth and explained with a smile:
"Girl, you misunderstood, in fact, Mother-in-law Honghe is not a bad person, she is just a ......"
Without waiting for the young man to finish speaking, Chu Xingqiao interrupted in an aura:
"Aren't you going to kill me? Could it be that she is kind enough to cross me! ”
"Huh."
The boy smiled again, which added a little more sunshine to his already handsome face.
"Mother-in-law thought that you came specifically for the Qiankun Order, and it was the Seven Kills and Murderers, so she did it to you. She's old, and sometimes it's inevitable to get confused, and besides, I'm not making up for it, girl, you can forgive your mother-in-law, okay? ”
The young man still had a sunny face, patiently explained, and seeing that Chu Xingqiao did not refute, he leaned forward and said softly:
"Don't be afraid, I just want to make sure you have a fever."
After speaking, the young man raised his hand, but before his hand touched Chu Xingqiao's forehead, Chu Xingqiao pulled his hand away and said coldly:
"No need!"
Then Chu Xingqiao stood up, turned around and left.
The heart is sinister, this kid is so diligent, it must be no good!
Chu Xingqiao thought as he avoided the young man's sight and walked towards the mountain.
Chu Xingqiao, who was not familiar with the route, groped for the mountain along the way, looked for traces of people walking, passed through a few woods, and finally came to a place with a relatively wide field of vision, and found a stone to sit down.
"Ahem, ahem!"
She had been climbing the hillside for nearly two hours, and she was sweating profusely when she should have been hot a long time ago, but she didn't know if it was because her clothes were still wet, or why, she still felt cold.
Remembering what the boy had just said, she muttered to herself:
Could it be that he was wrongly blamed just now?
"Hey!"
As soon as he sighed, Chu Xingqiao suddenly realized something and hurriedly spit out three mouthfuls.
It's not good to sigh all the time, it was the sigh that provoked the mother-in-law before, and now it's uncomfortable!
"Rustle—"
A gust of wind blew, and the leaves in the surrounding forest were rustled, and Chu Xingqiao, whose mind was getting heavier and heavier, suddenly shuddered.
"Shhh
As soon as she finished speaking, suddenly there were several strange noises in the woods beside her.
Suddenly, Chu Xingqiao frowned, observed his surroundings, and said in his heart, don't run into any fierce beasts at this time, I don't have any strength at all now!
Just as she was scanning her surroundings vigilantly, suddenly a large black bird flew out of the forest and flew over her head into the sky, and when she looked up, the big black bird did not seem to want to leave like this, but to swoop down.
Well? It can't be against me, right? It won't be so unlucky!
Thinking of this, Chu Xingqiao immediately jumped off the stone, ran to a very lush tree, and quickly climbed up.
The leaves are so thick, it shouldn't be able to see me, right?
As she was muttering in her heart, the big black bird chirped in the air and fell from the sky, plunging into the open space she had just left, because the big bird flew too high and descended too fast, and finally hit the ground with its head, so the big black bird didn't even make a last scream.
Chu Xingqiao, who saw this scene, was stunned, and couldn't help but wonder:
Why is this?
