Chapter 15: Birthday Presents
I was startled by the sudden sliding window, and my body, which had just stood upright, immediately shrank back, my back pressed against the wall, and shrank in that dark corner, not daring to move at all.
Master Guo Ren poked his head out suspiciously, looked at the window, and then turned a figure from the front garden, greeted Guo Ren and said, "Uncle, it's me." ”
That person was the green-hat man Fei Fei, he approached and said indignantly to Master Guoren: "Uncle, they are going to come tomorrow to get people, what can I do?" "When Guo Ren saw his nephew, he was still a little uneasy, and asked if you were here just now?" Na Fei also helped, nodded and said: "Yes, I've been here a few times, Alai said that you are talking to someone about things, let me not disturb you, but I am very upset and want to talk to you." ”
Master Guoren was relieved at this time, called Fei Fei over, and asked what was wrong?
When Fei Fei talked about his wife Zhong Shuiyue running away with someone else, he was quite unwilling, and said: "My father died in a fight, but my mother didn't let me learn the head-lowering technique since I was a child, but went to study in a proper manner, and now I hate it when I think about it, if I had studied in front of you back then, maybe I would have been able to kill that pair of adulterers and adulteresses with my own hands!" ”
Master Guo Ren asked, saying that Shui Yue is Xiao Baxi's mother, are you willing to kill her?
The sentence "I ......" blocked all the righteous indignation of Fei Fei, and the man was stunned on the spot, speechless for a while, and after a few seconds, he actually cried loudly.
This cry was sad, Master Guoren comforted him twice, and then asked the disciple at the door to send him back to the room, looking at his nephew far away, the old man sighed softly, and said Child, I sent Shui Yue to seek to seize Moluo, but I didn't expect that this dissatisfied woman couldn't bear the loneliness, and slept with someone else, so that my uncle was also cuckolded, you hate, I hate too...... No, my demonic eye has been damaged, and it won't get better in a few months, so I'm going to suck the furnace, lest that scar-faced boy come to the door tomorrow and suffer again.
He made up his mind, packed up his things in the room for a while, and then walked out of the practice room, taking the two apprentices at the door, towards the back door.
This old house was searched by me, and under the surveillance of the tiger cat, there was no way to hide people, so if Xue Rui was taken captive, I was afraid that the hiding place was another place, and I was happy to see Guo Ren leave, and then turned back along the original road, out of this old house, hidden in the dark, only to see Guo Ren and his party of three people, carrying a package, walking towards the mountains and forests behind the village.
Into the mountains? I looked at the backs of these people suspiciously, and sneaked out of the village.
After leaving this crowded place and about to enter the mountains and forests, I waved my hand and summoned the flowers and fat insects to help watch the road.
Although I defeated Guo Ren today, but after all, he was too light on the enemy, and he was restrained, when he got the amulet given by the monk Datu, I didn't know if the fat worm could contact the Gu poison in his stomach, and I was afraid that if Xue Rui was really there, as soon as he threatened, I would throw a rat bogey, so I didn't dare to follow too closely, but just carefully dropped away.
While hurrying and walking bored, I remembered the promise I made with the little demon just now, turned around, and asked what this little girl wanted to say just now? The little demon crossed me, led the way in front, silent, I thought she couldn't hear it, followed behind and asked again, she turned around, under the moonlight, the delicate melon seed face was a little blushing: "Lu Zuo, in a week, you have to give me a gift, the same gift as the unicorn fetal necklace!" ”
Maybe he felt a little embarrassed to ask for a gift directly, but after the little demon said this, he turned his head and walked faster and faster.
This request was a bit abrupt, and I was inexplicable, asking what it was? The little demon ignored me, and there was no shadow of a smoke, I touched my nose, my mind was messy, and I turned my head and asked Duoduo, saying Little baby, do you know what's going on?
Duoduo's body floated in the air, and her body was like the bright moon in the sky, emitting a glowing light, the wavelength was not far, and it could not be transmitted far away, but when you look closely, it looks like an angel. She put her finger in her ruddy little mouth and held it, her eyes rolled for a while, and she said in surprise: "Ah, I almost forgot, the last time the little demon sister said that next Saturday was her birthday, hey-I'm a pig brain, how can I forget such an important thing?" Little Fatty, you remember, remember to remind me when the time comes, or I'll play your ass! ”
The fat insect stared at a pair of black bean eyes, and I didn't know if I understood, flickering, only nodded, and I was confused, saying that the little demon was a good plant, and she even had a birthday?
Duoduo said of course, the day she became conscious was her birthday, stupid!
I want a birthday present, no wonder this little fox is so shy? I touched my chin and thought, "It's just a gift like a unicorn necklace, where do I look for it?" I was originally following Master Guoren, but along the way, I began to think about this headache, thinking about it, the trees on both sides unconsciously became a little sparse, turned a mountain road, and a narrow valley appeared in front of me, with grass on the slope, and a stream more than a foot wide not far ahead, and a huge banyan tree in the middle of the valley.
These banyan trees have been around for a few years, shrouded in canopy, and the knotted branches are connected from each other, densely packed, and even connected into a large forest, black and pressed, forming an independent ecological environment.
There is a bright light from the branches and leaves of the banyan tree, and through the gap, you can see more than a dozen wooden houses living on the banyan tree, which looks quite interesting. I was just about to continue walking towards the valley when a hand as white as the moon reached out from the grass and tugged at the corner of my coat.
I turned my head, only to see the little demon's reddish pretty face poking out, and warned: "This should be the base camp of nuts, there are some arrangements in front, it is very dangerous, in order to avoid startling the grass and snakes, you need to take a detour." ”
Detour? I looked where the goblin had pointed me, and farther away, there was a wide pool.
Because it is difficult for ordinary people to cross it, there is a correspondingly less arrangement, and we need to go around the opposite rock wall, go down vertically, then cross the waterhole, and then slowly approach the banyan trees in the valley to listen to the situation. Things are more troublesome, but if you want to sneak into the valley quietly, that's the only way.
With the idea in mind, we began to act, and walked through the forest without stopping, and went around to the opposite mountain wall, which had a great drop, and there was a deep pool below, and I had to climb the branches between the cliffs under the care of two flowers, and then use the Tianwu Zhu, and enter the slightly cold deep pool.
There was a lot of silt in this pool, but fortunately there was Wu Zhu in the sky, and I finally crossed the cold pool and climbed out from the other side.
Although Tianwuzhu can avoid water, but walking in this pool, I still feel damp, quite uncomfortable, twist my sleeves, shake my head, want to make myself drier, but I was distracted, I forgot to look at the road, stumbled under my feet, and the whole person fell forward.
Bang!
In the quiet of the night, a crisp sound came from under my feet, and I looked down to see that I had kicked a clay pot, and the lid had fallen off.
This clay pot has the kind of jar of pickles in my hometown is about the same size, half of it is buried in the soil, and part of it is exposed outside, I haven't paid attention to it just now, but I took a look at it at this time, only to find that in this pond to nearly 100 meters, densely packed, all of them are this kind of clay pots, I am afraid that there must be thousands, and the distribution is staggered, quite in accordance with the law.
I was a little curious about what was in this clay pot, and I was about to look down, but my heart moved, and I lowered my body and hid in the thorn forest not far away.
It was also a coincidence that I had just squatted down in the grass not far away when two men rushed over and squatted next to the clay pot I had just kicked open. The two of them were thin and fat, the thin one took out a flashlight, looked into the clay pot, there was a metal reflection in it, it should have found nothing abnormal, he closed the lid, and then checked left and right with the fat man, and then muttered and left.
I asked the little demon what the two guys were talking about, and she smiled and whispered to me that the people were muttering that it must be Mai Aaron's dog that was running away again, and that it was not tied up at night.
The little demon grinned, and I secretly made up my mind, if there is a real conflict, I will not let go of these two guys, hum!
The appearance of the fat man and the thin man reminded me that in this valley, there is not only one Guoren, there should be many others, and possibly a mysterious master like Datu. So I was more careful, and when the two were gone, I went around to the edge of the grove and slowly touched the banyan grove inside.
Banyan tree is one of the largest woody tree species in the tropical flora, there are a variety of important characteristics of tropical rainforest such as plate root, pillar root, strangulation, old stem fruit, etc., located in the center of this banyan forest a few, the tree circumference can have seven or eight meters, up to more than 20 meters, the branches are luxuriant, the thick shade covers the sky, and the land covered has more than 100 square meters.
When she reached the edge, Duoduo retracted her body and whispered to me: "Brother Lu Zuo, I sensed Sister Xuerui's breath, she was there, but it was very weak, as if she was controlled by something!" ”
Where is Sherry?
Hearing the affirmative words, I looked towards the huge banyan tree in the middle, and there was a tree house in it, and there was a dim light in it, and my heart was warm, but I couldn't help but worry. At the moment, I couldn't contain the anxiety in my heart, and walked quickly towards the center along the shadows of the trees.
This banyan forest obscured the light, except for a few tree houses with lights, the bottom was dim, like a ghost, and there were many traps, thanks to the little demon and Duoduo leading the way, I would not step on the air. Soon I came to a short distance below the banyan tree, and not far from the tree stood a dark shadow, facing north, and a soft ladder hung down from the tree, allowing me to enter and exit.
This banyan tree is huge, I came around from behind, the people in front can't see it, and I don't dare to climb the soft ladder, climb carefully along the branches, and soon came to the bottom of the wooden house not far away, the voice of someone talking came out, it was Guo Ren's voice, and it was a jerky Chinese: "Little slut, today Datu went to the city to do business, I can't help it, you Ding furnace, let me pick it, hahaha......"
