Chapter 35: A Down-and-Out Boy

"Who?" Chu Liuyan put the blue water sword across his chest, raised his willow eyebrows, and scolded the man.

The young man stared at Chu Liuyan for a while, and saw that the other party was just a little girl about the same age as himself, although he was holding a sword as clear as clear water in his hand, he was not unfavorable to himself, and his heart gradually became less afraid. However, there is such a little girl in this barren mountain range, most of them are either gods or ghosts, or monsters.

The young man trembled and pleaded with Chu Liuyan: "The female Bodhisattva spares her life, the female Bodhisattva spares her life, please let the female Bodhisattva let me go." My mother said that there are three generations of single transmission in our family, and if I die, there will be no one to continue the incense, and our Guo family will be extinct......" The more the young man talked, the more sad he became, and in the end he whimpered and cried.

Chu Liuyan was stunned for a while, and then said: "Your mother taught you this, didn't she teach you that men don't flick when they have tears?" Who are you, why did you come to this barren mountain in the middle of the night? ”

"I didn't mean to bump into the female Bodhisattva's sister, please spare the female Bodhisattva's life, spare your life!" As the man spoke, his legs and feet became a little weak, and he couldn't stop shaking.

Chu Liuyan saw that he was pitiful, and saw that he was thinly dressed, so he asked him to sit down next to the fire, and said, "I'm not a female bodhisattva, but I rushed here, I ..... My brother contracted the cold, so I accompanied him to rest in the mountain temple. Who are you? How did you come here? ”

When the young man heard that Chu Liuyan was not a monster or ghost, he was not so afraid. He looked at Lan Yu, who was lying on the ground and didn't move, and asked, "Why is your brother's wind cold so bad?" It looks like they can't make it. As he spoke, his eyes gurgled as he looked at Chu Liuyan.

Chu Liuyan didn't doubt him, so he said casually: "My brother is an old problem, it's nothing." When the boy saw what she said lightly, he felt more and more strange. Under the light of the fire, Chu Liuyan's pair of jade pendants emitted a faint green brilliance, and the eyes of the young man who saw it also faintly gave birth to some green color.

Chu Liuyan took out some dry food, took it to the fire and roasted it for a while, handed it to the young man, and said, "Eat it." The young man looked at Chu Liuyan, and his eyes were still rolling. He took the dry food and began to devour it. When Chu Liuyan saw his eating appearance, he knew in his heart that he hadn't eaten for several days. Chu Liuyan smiled slightly, said no more, still returned to the corner and dozed off.

The young man ate all the dry food in a while, and when he saw Chu Liuyan asleep, he had a plan in his heart. He first found a small stone on the ground and threw it next to Chu Liuyan, and when he saw that Chu Liuyan did not react, he became bolder.

He stood up and tiptoed towards Chu Liuyan. Chu Liuyan moved slightly, startling him. But soon, Chu Liuyan slept peacefully. The boy listened to her snort evenly, and thought to himself that she was already asleep, so he just moved and just turned over naturally. So he approached her boldly, gently broke her fingers, took the blue water sword from her hand, laughed twice, and then lifted the blue water sword and stabbed it hard at Chu Liuyan.

In fact, when the young man first tried it, Chu Liuyan had already heard the awakening of life. It's just that she never wanted to believe that this down-and-out young man would be a bad person, so she deliberately slept peacefully to watch his next move. Who knew that the young man really deceived his side, so Chu Liuyan moved slightly, so that the young man could stop. The young man was a thief, not only did he not stop, but he also ran to Chu Liuyan's side, snatched her blue water sword, and wanted to stab her to death with a sword.

Chu Liuyan immediately stopped hesitating, her eyes widened, and with a flick of her sleeve, the blue water sword had already fallen to the ground with a "clang". Chu Liuyan didn't wait for the young man to react, he had already turned over, picked up the blue water sword, put it on the young man's neck, and said coldly: "You ignorant young man, I was kind enough to save you, but you want to kill me, who did you say sent you?" ”

The young man originally thought that the blow was successful, but he didn't expect to be knocked to the ground by Chu Liuyan within one move. With a sad face, he knelt down with a plop and begged for mercy: "Grandma, please let me go." I didn't mean to kill me just now, I didn't mean to kill you, I just ......"

"Hmph." Chu Liuyan smiled coldly and said, "What's the benefit of you saying this now? You say, did Guo Zixing send you? ”

"Guo Zixing? That's my dad! But it wasn't my dad who sent me, my dad has been dead for I don't know how many years. I just saw that the pair of jade pendants on your ears could be sold for a lot of money, and I wanted to exchange those jade pendants for money. The young man saw that he could deny it, so he had to tell the truth.

It's just that Chu Liuyan didn't believe it, she sneered: "If you are really Guo Zixing's son, you can be regarded as having a father and a son." However, everyone knows that Guo Zixing only has one righteous daughter, Miss Ma. You, this kid, want to make money and kill for the sake of a pair of jade pendants, which is really ill-intentioned. What's the use of keeping you in the world? After speaking, Chu Liuyan raised the blue water sword and stabbed at the young man.

Actually, Chu Liuyan didn't really want to kill him, he just wanted to scare and scare him, teach him a lesson, and let him not do such a thing in the future. Who knew that Chu Liuyan's sword was still a foot away from the young man, and she smelled a smell, it turned out that the young man was scared and peed his pants.

Chu Liuyan couldn't laugh or cry, the young man knelt down and pleaded: "Auntie, female Bodhisattva, please let me go once if you have a lot of adults." I didn't mean to kill for money and take your jade pendant. I wanted to exchange the jade pendant for money to save my mother and my sister, my mother and my sister are so miserable, if I don't forgive them with the silver taels, they will be sold into a brothel tomorrow night. ”

"What?" Chu Liuyan was stunned, not knowing whether what the young man said was true or false: "What did you say?" You say that forcing good people to be prostitutes? Chu Liuyan thought that there could be some truth and some falsehood in what the young man said. This young man looks like he is seventeen or eighteen years old, and his mother is probably thirty or forty years old. Selling into a brothel at the age of thirty or forty seems too incredible.

Yes, Chu Liuyan didn't believe him, and still held the sword, gesturing to scare him.

"Okay, okay, I'll be honest, auntie, I promise you the truth, and you have to promise me, don't compare with the sword. What's so good about a girl holding a sword, she won't be able to marry in the future. My mother and my sister are really pitiful...... "The boy said this, but suddenly burst into tears.
