Chapter 92 The iron head that wants to eat people has no head since then
Xiaoqin ran away again, ran back to him again, but this time it was not without a price.
The moon was like frost, and with her face covered with blood and a weak body, she staggered back to the dilapidated mountain temple step by step. At the first glance of Wei Yechen, she showed a relieved smile, and the next moment she suddenly threw herself forward.
"Leprechaun! Violin! Wei Yechen caught her quickly, completely panicked, "What's wrong with you?!" Violin! ”
Holding her into her arms, it was incredibly soft, like hugging a ball of freshly picked cotton. It's also incredibly light, just like the little hen Ah Huang who hugged when he was a child, trembling slightly in his chest.
Holding such a small thing at this moment, he was remorseful and angry, angry at why he would follow the advice of a four-year-old girl to sell her.
Such a little thing, like her sister Wei Qihua, should have run around on the silk and satin all over the ground, printing a row of delicate pocket-sized mud footprints, emitting a long string of silver bell-like laughter, and the family couldn't bear to blame Yi for being naughty.
Someone should have protected her and sheltered her, instead of using her as a money-making prop, just because she was a little fool and ruthlessly used her.
"Derpy, Xiaoqin?" He laid her down in a haystack and called her softly.
She fell asleep and could not hear him call her, but every time he called her name, she curled the corners of her mouth slightly, as if she were smiling in a dream. So, he kept shouting, "Xiaoqin, Xiaoqin, Xiaoqin......"
Bringing a cool stream, washing her face, unbuttoning her placket, and removing her dress to wipe her body, Wei Yechen tried to find the wound on her body, after all, she had shed so much blood.
But she was almost stripped naked, wiped all over, and found not a single wound, only a few circles of red marks on her wrists. Wei Yechen breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that she might have accidentally been stained with some kind of pig blood, cow blood or the like, not that she was injured herself.
Wei Yechen fed her some berry juice, and she woke up in the evening, rolling lazily in the haystack, and asked angrily: "I want to eat peaches, little brother, you go to Moji Mountain to pick one for me." ”
Wei Yechen nodded: "Then you wait well, you can't run around." ”
"By the way, little brother," she added, "I don't know your name yet, but you know mine." ”
Although he felt sorry for her in his heart, Wei Yechen couldn't help but sneer: "Isn't your master good at everything, why didn't you say hello?" ”
"I asked, but Master said that the secret of heaven should not be revealed." Xiaoqin bit her tender lip.
Wei Yechen rolled his eyes, thinking that Xiaoqin's master must be a complete magic stick, so he deceived her into such a stupid little girl, even people over seven years old couldn't fool her.
"Little brother, just tell me, otherwise I don't know what your name is, I have to call you Xianggong!" Xiaoqin's little short legs rolled in the grass.
“…… "Leaf Marks," he said, "My name is Leaf Marks." ”
"You're a liar!" Xiaoqin complained.
"Who lied to you?" The accusations that flew in made him feel inexplicable.
"Master said, there is a word in your name that is the same as mine, but there is no 'leaf' or 'trace' in my name!"
"......" he froze.
There is a "same word", and the two of them have the same surname!
"It's so annoying, I don't even tell me my real name, I don't play with you anymore!" The little short legs fluttered and fluffed up, and ran to the outside of the mountain temple.
He came back from his stunned and chased after him, "Xiaoqin, where are you going?" Come back! ”
"I'm going to pick peaches!" She ran and jumped, and even her voice was jumping up and down with joy, "Brother Ye, you come and pick it too, you are taller than me!" ”
"You run slower!" He reluctantly stepped on legs longer than hers and caught up with them.
The two of them came to Mo Ji Mountain, a small hill only slightly higher than the dirt slope. Under Xiaoqin's command, Wei Yechen picked five big red hearts on the tree, and the two returned with a full load.
Xiaoqin ate two, and left the rest for Wei Yechen, "Oh, these three are all for you, this is called 'Xiaoqin Rang Peach', there is an allusion." ”
After the two of them were full and had strength, Wei Yechen asked her, "Who did Tietou sell you to this time?" How did you get back? Where did you come back with a bloody face? Have you ever been to a fish stall in the wet market? ”
After selling Xiaoqin five days ago, he squatted at the door of Tietou's house and guarded them, and never saw them come out. On the fourth day he was hungry and thirsty, and when it was evening, he guessed that even if he did business, it would not be so late, so he left first.
Xiaoqin shook her head, her expression was a little scared, and she faded away from her previous cheerfulness and liveliness, and her eyes were covered with a thin veil of fear.
"What's wrong, Xiaoqin?" Wei Yechen suddenly guessed a possibility, and suddenly became angry - "Is it that Tietou didn't sell you at all, and he kept you for himself?" Did he bully you?! ”
Xiaoqin shook her head and nodded again, her little face was terrified, but she didn't speak, she was in a hurry, and she picked up Xiaoqin's clothes when she came up.
"Brother Ye, what are you doing!" Xiaoqin was scared and cried.
"Where the hell did you get hurt? Show me! He thought he had missed it when he wiped her before, and there must have been an injury in something he didn't see!
"No, really not, don't ...... like that" Xiaoqin guarded the collar.
"Okay," Wei Yechen stopped, "Then tell me quickly, how did the iron head bully you?" Tell me! ”
He ...... He ......, "Xiaoqin is spitting."
"What the hell did he do?!" Wei Yechen was about to go crazy.
"He doesn't give me food, just a little water...... Xiaoqin said solemnly.
"That's it?" Wei Yechen didn't believe it, and stared at her.
Xiaoqin nodded, dodging Wei Yechen's gaze, and said nervously: "I have been hungry for more than four days, no matter how I begged, that person didn't even give me a small bite of bread to eat, I was so hungry and dizzy, I was really hungry and hungry......"
"That's it?" Wei Yechen breathed a sigh of relief.
But Xiaoqin didn't finish speaking, "Later...... Later, he ...... "Wei Yechen's heart hung again," and then he made a fire in the house, and a high log frame was erected on the fire, and a large black iron pot was hung under the wooden frame, and I thought he was going to cook, so I begged him to give me something to eat, but it was ......."
"Still won't give you food?" Wei Yechen asked angrily.
Xiaoqin shook her head, and the fear in her eyes was like a torrent into the forest, and she couldn't stop it, "But when he released me from the cage and told me to take off my shoes and stand in the hot iron pot, I didn't know it...... What is he going to eat...... That's me. ”
"What?!" Wei Yechen was angry, "He wants to eat you?" He wants to eat people! He wants to roast you to death?! ”
He turned and rushed out, trying to find the scum of the iron head and smash the guy's head to pieces. He ran too fast, Xiaoqin was crying and chasing behind, and fell down halfway through the chase, crying and shouting: "Brother Ye, don't go, Tietou is dead, his family is full of officials, don't go!" ”
Wei Yechen paused, thinking of the blood on Xiaoqin's face when she came back, she turned around and asked her incredulously, "Could it be that you killed him?" ”
Xiaoqin sat on the ground and cried "woo", very aggrieved.
Wei Yechen hurriedly went up, picked her up, hugged him on his not wide chest, patted the back of his head and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's over, it's all over, and this will never happen again." ”
After Xiaoqin finished crying, she told him that it was not she who killed the iron head, but a bearded man wearing a blue coat.
"A bearded man in blue? He didn't leave his name? Wei Yechen asked.
Xiaoqin shook her head and said, "He cut off the head of the iron head with a knife and rolled into the fire, and blood splattered everywhere, blindfolding my eyes." In the dimness, I only saw him take the black iron pot off the fire rack, and carved the word 'hour' on the wall with his knife, and then he carried the big knife and drove away. ”
"So you ran back?"
"I was so scared, I didn't dare to make a sound from beginning to end," Xiaoqin said with a shallow resentment, "Later, on the way to the mountain temple, I realized that although that person looked terrible and did terrible things, he killed people to save me, and I didn't ask Engong's name." ”
"Forget it, you're fine." Wei Yechen crouched down and took off her shoes.
"Brother Ye, what are you doing?"
"Aren't you standing on a hot iron pot, the soles of your feet must be burned."
"No burns, just a little pain, hiss-"
"Don't move!" Wei Yechen opened the soles of her feet, and saw that there were patches of red and swollen marks on her white and tender skin, and she couldn't help but be annoyed, "You stupid Qin! It's all hurt like this, you're not honest, and you still run up the mountain to pick peaches! ”
"That person really wants to eat peaches."
"Then you let me go!"
"That person wants to watch Brother Ye pick peaches for me."
"Then you let me carry you!"
"That'...... That's it. There was a sly look between her immature eyebrows, "The next time I get injured and run back, Brother Ye, you will carry me to pick peaches, and next time I will eat three!" ”
"You want to have a next time!" Wei Yechen was going crazy.
He probably understood why Wei Shangshu threw away this daughter, because after staying with her for a long time, no matter how good-tempered a person was, he would gradually turn into a roaring face.
********
Three days later, the burn on Xiaoqin's foot healed, and she became restless again, constantly circling around Wei Yechen's body, repeatedly persuading Wei Yechen to sell herself again.
"No way!" Wei Yechen roared, "Put away your bad ideas! ”
"What's a bad idea?" Xiaoqin croaked and persuaded, "Brother Ye, do you think, the master has calculated the hexagram and said that you are my father-in-law, shouldn't the father-in-law and the lady be together every day?" If you don't worship under my supreme uncle, and if you are not my senior brother, then how can the two of us see each other every day? But if you don't have two hundred taels of silver, how can you go to apprenticeship? ”
"Who wants to see you every day," Wei Yechen turned his head awkwardly, a suspicious red in his ears, "I've only lived with you for three days, and I almost didn't die of anger from you." Last night you slept and grinded your teeth, and I couldn't sleep! ”
"That person is hungry." Xiaoqin pouted.
"Didn't you pick a lot of peaches for you to eat? You look like a bean bag, you eat more than a cow's head, and half of the mountain of peaches is about to be eaten up. Wei Yechen said very viciously.
"That guy wants to eat chicken legs."
"Chicken legs?" Wei Yechen stood up, "Okay, then I'll go to the town to buy it, and you wait for me in the temple eating peaches." ”
"But if you waste the money, Brother Ye, you won't be able to worship the master, you can't be my senior brother, and you can't often pick peaches for me to eat." Xiaoqin had a hard time choosing, counting her white and tender fingers, calculating the gains and losses, "If you buy two chicken legs, you won't be able to eat many, many peaches in the future, people really want to eat chicken legs, but they want to eat peaches even more, those peaches growing on tall trees are particularly sweet!" …… What to do? What to do? What if you want to eat both? ”
Unconsciously a Sen Senran truth was exposed in front of Wei Yechen-
Originally! Xiaodoubao is actually to eat sweeter and crisper peaches on higher trees, so he is entangled with what kind of husband he should be, and what kind of senior brother he should be!
So! The most fundamental meaning of his existence is to pick peaches and buy chicken legs for her!
"Good brother, you can sell me again!" Xiaoqin clasped her hands together and bowed to Wei Yechen, "People really want to have an obedient senior brother, so that they can often take me down the mountain to eat chicken legs!" Please~~Really please~~"
Wei Yechen felt both angry and incredible: this little thing, are she and Wei Qihua really two sisters?
Could it be that Mrs. Shangshu took the wrong medicine when she was pregnant in October, and gave birth to Wei Qihua's brains for both people, and the other daughter was born without a head melon, only with a mouth waiting to be fed?
