Chapter 385: Mu Xiaodu
Where I lay was a dilapidated wooden bed, on top of which was a yellowed mosquito net, which was lifted on either side of the bed frame, and next to the bed was an old long table, on which was lit a kerosene lamp, on which a thick layer of black grease could be seen.
At the opposite corner of the bed, an emaciated figure had his back to me, and in front of her lay a loom, a man with waist-length hair, and a blue coarse cloth coat with many patches of other colors. Her back looked a little overwhelmed, and she sighed slightly while pushing the rocker of the loom, looking lonely, lonely, and a deep helplessness in it.
I don't have to think about it to know that after I fell from the top of that peak and fell into a coma, it was this person who saved me.
I looked around, and I was a little puzzled in my heart, the decoration here was not modern at all, I didn't see any kind of modern furniture in it, even the dishes, they were all extremely rough porcelain bowls, the combs were also wooden combs, and the mirrors were also very vague copper mirrors, and this bronze mirror was only half of it.
As soon as my mind moved, I couldn't communicate with the Shadow Guardian Array, nor could I communicate with my guardian Yin Soul Da Bing'er, I raised my hand slightly, wanting to touch the jade pendant on my chest, but my two hands couldn't lift it at all.
After trying it countless times, I just gave up on the idea, and after a few deep breaths, I asked, "Hello, what is this place?" ”
The voice is okay, although it is a little hoarse, but it can still be spoken.
The woman who had been weaving suddenly shuddered when she heard me speak, and then turned her head.
Looking at the rickety back before, I originally thought that this was an old woman, but now I saw a handsome and delicate face, this face revealed a feeling of pity for me, even in the dim light, I could see that this woman had a kind of sadness of 'emaciating for Yi'.
The woman saw that I was awake, and quickly stood up, and when I stood up, I found that she was a little more than one meter six tall, and her figure did not have any rickets, but she looked very well-proportioned and stood very straight, although her clothes were shabby, and she looked very loose, but from her young face and standing posture, it could be judged that this woman was no more than twenty years old.
"Childe, are you awake? That's great. The woman walked up to me and said softly, her voice gentle and her voice as soft as water, and it sounded very comfortable.
I endured the severe pain all over my body and smiled and said, "Thank you for saving me, my name is Shen Wang, may I ask where this is?" ”
"Shen Gongzi, this is my home, my name is Mu Xiaodu, three days ago, I went up the mountain to collect medicine and found that Shen Gongzi was seriously injured, so I brought Shen Gongzi back, do you want to drink water? I'll go outside to fetch water for Shen Gongzi. Mu Xiaodui said softly.
Of course I won't be thirsty, I ate the last Bigu Dan, and I can manage it for half a month, but she said several Shen Gongzi in a row, and I was a little uncomfortable listening to it, I shook my head slightly, and continued to ask with a smile: "Thank you, Mu Xiaodui, you don't have to call me Gongzi, may I ask if the things I have with me are still there?" ”
"Yes, it's all here, Shen Gongzi's bag is very tight, I'll help Shen Gongzi untie it and put it away." Mu Xiaodui said and opened the cabinet door under the wooden table, the cabinet door made a creaking sound, she took out my waist bag and the long knife from it, and continued: "I haven't touched the contents of Shen Gongzi's bag. ”
"Thank you, can you help me get a few pills." I breathed a sigh of relief, although the current injuries are very serious, but if there is a rejuvenation pill, these injuries can be recovered in two or three days, and now my mind can't communicate with the shadow of the Shadow Guardian Array and the big ice in the jade pendant, which has a lot to do with my injury, the meridians on my body are displaced and blocked, the internal qi cannot be mobilized, and the mind cannot be swept in.
Mu Xiaohui took out two Rejuvenation Pills from her waist bag as I said and fed them directly to me. I noticed that she was stunned for a moment when she saw a few jade bottles in my waist bag.
"Miss Mu, is there something wrong with my jade bottle?" I asked, a little confused.
Mu Xiaodui just wanted to speak, when she suddenly heard a knock on the door, Mu Xiaodui panicked and stuffed my waist bag into the quilt, turned around and asked, "Who?" ”
"Sister, it's me, open the door." A childish voice came from outside.
Mu Xiaodui's expression relaxed, and said to me, "Shen Gongzi, you wait a minute. ”
I nodded, now I can't run the exercises to refine the pill, I can only rely on the digestive system to slowly digest and absorb it.
After a while, Mu Xiaodui led a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl in, this little girl looked a little similar to Mu Xiaodui, and the clothes on her body were similar, all of them were very shabby, but his patches were slightly less than Mu Xiaodui's.
"Ah~~" The girl screamed when she saw me, then reached out to cover her mouth, and asked in disbelief: "Sister, who is this?" Why are you hiding a man at home, your father wants to marry you to Lu Gongzi as a concubine, if you let Lu Gongzi know, it will be a disaster. ”
Mu Xiaowan also reached out and covered the girl's mouth and said: "Xiao Xi, this Shen Gongzi was found when I was collecting medicine outside, so I carried him back, you must not tell your father, and my father wants to marry Lu Gongzi, I didn't agree." ”
After Mu Xiaowei finished speaking, she turned her head to look at me apologetically and said, "Shen Gongzi, this is my sister Mu Xiaoxi, you don't have to worry, she has no bad intentions." ”
I smiled and nodded, and said to Mu Xiaoxi: "Hello, Miss Xiaoxi, I'm not a bad person, I'll be fine in two or three days, and I won't trouble you anymore." ”
Mu Xiaoxi glanced at me, then turned to Mu Xiaoxi and said, "Sister, my father said that if you don't agree again, we won't be able to pay the food, and Lu Gongzi will rob it, and then he will burn down our house." Mr. Lu is the pavilion chief, and Lord Lu is the county commander, and Lord Lu even knows the immortal master, so we can't afford to offend. ”
"Xiaoxi, you are still young, you don't understand so much, that Lu Gongzi is not a good person, even if I agree to be his concubine, he will not treat our Mu family well." Mu Xiaodui said with a lost look in her eyes.
Listening to these words, I thoroughly understood that this was a separate place, and it was an ancient place, no wonder the layout in this room was so ancient, and the two sisters were so strangely dressed.
To say that this is a set acting, it is absolutely impossible, and there is nothing wrong with the communication between the two sisters. Could it be that the 'Time Array Gate' took us back to ancient times? Crossed?
This is also impossible, I immediately rejected this idea, if it is time travel, we in ancient times do not exist at all, if time goes back to ancient times, then after we enter the 'Time Array Gate', we will immediately turn into nothingness.
The only explanation is that the secret realm we have entered is actually a separate world, and it is a world that has been handed down from ancient times, except that this world is isolated from the world and hidden in a certain corner of the earth.
When the 'Time Array Gate' and 'Space Confusion' are intertwined and staggered, it will cause the twist of space and the change of the rules of heaven and earth, so that the entrance of the secret realm will become a teleportation array, which will directly transmit us from the entrance to here.
"Sister, what should we do now? In one more day, the deadline is coming, and Lu Gongzi will forcibly take you away, or you should run away quickly, right? Mu Xiaoxi said anxiously.
Mu Xiaowei shook her head, gritted her teeth and said: "I can't escape, and I can't escape, if he wants to arrest me, I'll go with him, I won't marry him, when I get to his house, I'll find a chance to hang myself." ”
"Sister..."Mu Xiaoxi suddenly cried when she heard this, and then threw herself into Mu Xiaoxi's arms.
Two lines of tears also flowed from the corners of Mu Xiaodu's eyes, and I finally understood why Mu Xiaodui sighed when she was weaving, it turned out that she was worried about this matter.
"I'm sorry, excuse me, Miss Mu, may I ask who the immortal master that Miss Xiaoxi just talked about." I asked with some doubts, I still don't know what this place is, but I know that these Mu family sisters are all ordinary people, and they haven't even cultivated Neidan, and the immortal master they are talking about will definitely not be a real immortal, maybe they are just Neidan cultivators here.
Mu Xiaodui seemed to be a little emotional just now, so he didn't pay much attention to me, until I asked, Mu Xiaodui looked at me suspiciously, and then said: "Shen Gongzi, immortal masters are people who can become immortals, their status is very high, and even our lord has to give them three points of courtesy." ”
"The lord of the country? What country is this? I quickly asked.
