Chapter 9 Quartz
In a small mountain village surrounded by mountains, a lit bonfire burns brightly, illuminating half of the village. A group of people in the village sat around a small stone table, and the old man also sat down in front of the stone table surrounded by the people in the village, and Ye Chen was also dragged by Xiao Yue'er to sit with the old man.
"Big brother, where are you from? Are you from the Yan Kingdom outside the 100,000 mountains? How did you come to this 100,000 mountains? Tell me about the outside world, I haven't been out for many years. ”
"Ugh!"
As soon as Ye Chen sat down, Xiao Man was like a curious baby, and a lot of questions came out of his mouth. Ye Chen was stunned.
"Yan Guo?"
"One hundred thousand mountains?"
Ye Chen hadn't heard of it at all. If you want to say where did you come from? Could it be that you can still say that you have traveled through time? Who will believe this? It's not normal at all.
Xiao Man stopped his tongue offensive and waited for Ye Chen's answer with excitement. The eagerness in his eyes was unabashedly revealed, and it could be seen how excited he was in his heart.
There was a short silence, and everyone looked at Ye Chen. They also have doubts, but they don't have to open their mouths, because Xiaoman has told them all their doubts. What I want to know now is Ye Chen's answer.
"Me!"
More than a hundred pairs of eyes from all over the village were fixed on Ye Chen. Ye Chen felt unprecedented pressure, even when he was in the company, he had never faced thousands of employees. The heart is entangled, and I want to speak and stop. I want to say it, but I don't know where to start, and the feeling of being blocked in my mouth is very uncomfortable.
"Little brother!" Seeing Ye Chen's expression of wanting to speak and stopping, Shi San on the side couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you from that distant Nanzhou?"
After speaking, Shi San's eyes were firmly fixed on Ye Chen, his eyes were blazing. There are also countless thoughts circulating in my heart, still thinking about the suspicion just now.
Gu, take insects as pets, practice them as Gu. Controllable people, can kill, can make people's lives worse than death. Some Gu can even be invisible or colorless, and everything is done silently. At the end of the day, you don't even know how you died. Since Shi San heard his grandfather talk about it when he was a child, he has been sighing about him. Now that I see Ye Chen, I am looking at Xiao Yue'er, such a terrible little witch, she is obedient to Ye Chen. This must be the magic of Gu.
"Yes, definitely. Thinking about it, Shi San nodded affirmatively in his heart. But in the next second, Ye Chen broke all his fantasies.
"Nanzhou ???" Ye Chen said with a puzzled face: "Nanzhou, where is it?"
Ye Chen looked dazed, he couldn't see any pretentiousness on his face, and he didn't have any suspicion of pretending, because he really didn't know. I don't know, how to pretend?
"Isn't it, little brother, you don't even know Nanzhou?" Shi San shouted in surprise: "It's Nanzhou, which is tied with Dongzhou." After speaking, Shi San also looked at Ye Chen with an unbelievable expression, as if he wanted to see something in Ye Chen.
"Where is Dongzhou again?" Ye Chen asked immediately.
Ye Chen's words came out. Everyone was stunned, and one by one they came to Ye Chen's side with wide eyes, looking at Ye Chen like a cherished animal, as if they wanted to see through Ye Chen's whole body. Especially Xiaoman, it's almost on his face.
Xiao Man's heavy snort hit Ye Chen's face, making Ye Chen feel a chill. I'm a straight man. The corners of Ye Chen's mouth twitched, and he hurriedly raised his hand to push him away.
"Shhh
It's okay not to raise your hand, as soon as you raise your hand, the pain that disappeared from your shoulder hit you, and Ye Chen, who was in pain, grinned.
"Big brother, are you alright?"
Xiao Man hurriedly turned his head three feet away from Ye Chen, and asked anxiously, "How about Big Brother, I'll ask Grandpa to show you." When he said this, Xiaoman's face was full of self-blame and chagrin. In the final analysis, the injuries on Ye Chen's body were caused by himself. Seeing Ye Chen's grinning appearance now, Xiao Man felt a strong sense of self-blame in his heart.
"It's okay, it's okay. Ye Chen hurriedly waved his hand and said, "It's okay little man, big brother, I can bear this little pain." It will be fine in a while. After Ye Chen finished speaking, he immediately put on a smiling face, looking like he didn't care at all.
Xiao Man was stunned for a moment, and then laughed. Appreciating looked Ye Chen up and down.
"Good!"
A word burst out in half a day.
After speaking, he raised his right hand and wanted to pat Ye Chen's shoulder again. Ye Chen's face changed, and he immediately stood up.
"Big brother Xiaoman, I still have pain in my shoulder. Please, spare me. You're going to be here, I guess my hands are really useless. Ye Chen half-jokingly begged for mercy.
Just kidding, now Ye Chen doesn't dare to let Xiaoman shoot himself anymore. Just now, my shoulders were still aching. If you do it again, do you still want your own hands? Do you really think you're playing?
It's no wonder that Ye Chen thinks like this, after all, during the day, he has personally seen the scene of Xiao Man fighting with the tiger with his bare hands. Although he didn't see the last scene, it was not difficult for Ye Chen to guess that the tiger must be more than lucky in the end. Thinking of this, Ye Chen actually felt a little pity for the tiger who almost killed him.
"Huh?"
Seeing Ye Chen dodging himself like a fly, Xiao Man was slightly stunned. It wasn't until later that he heard Ye Chen's words that Xiao Man reacted, and suddenly became unable to cry or laugh. But Ye Chen can't be blamed for this, in the final analysis, it's his own fault, he just left a deep impression on people as soon as they met. It's no wonder otherwise.
After smiling bitterly, Xiao Man pulled his face and immediately put on a pitiful look. It made Ye Chen feel a chill, and he retreated three steps away, looking at Xiao Man with an extremely strange look and said, "This guy doesn't have any special hobbies, right?"
Yes, Ye Chen's retreat made Xiaoman extremely depressed. I wanted to win some sympathy and cheer for me. Unexpectedly, now it seems that he is more afraid of me. Xiaoman suddenly cried with a sad face, like an angry little daughter-in-law, extremely depressed.
The villagers who watched the excitement around finally couldn't help laughing when they saw this, and they didn't forget to mock Xiaoman when they laughed. only made Xiao Man's big red face, grabbed his head and kept smirking.
And where everyone is not paying attention, next to the stone table. Xiao Yue'er's small body, from the head down, was buried by the stone table, because she was too small to reach the table.
The villagers on the side were teasing Xiao Man, and they didn't notice Xiao Yue'er at all. At this time, she puffed out her cheeks and looked at Xiaoman angrily. She didn't know what happened, and she didn't understand the reason for it, so she didn't know how to think about it. She only knew that her eldest brother, all the unnatural movements just now, and the painful look on his face, were all seen by Xiao Yue'er. And the initiator of all this for her big brother is Xiaoman, whom she hates.
Without too many words, Xiaozui was unhappyly agitated, like a little frog, staring at Xiaoman with stunned eyes, and walked towards Xiaoman...
"Huh, there's a murderous aura!"
Xiao Man's expression froze, and he felt a terrible cool air on his back, and immediately stopped smirking. Turn your head to look, the next second...
"Bang!"
The sound of an object hitting sounded, and then Xiao Man's big man of 1.75 meters pulled up directly from the ground, drew a perfect arc in the air, and flew directly out of the crowd. And when he was flying, he finally saw someone coming. Tiny and delicate like a porcelain doll, her cute, pink little face was full of anger at this time.
"Small-month-er!!!"
In the air, Xiao Man shouted unwillingly. Then there was a loud bang, and it fell straight to the ground.
The villagers looked at this scene in amazement, and the most surprised was of course Ye Chen, although this time it was the second time to see it, but there was still a lot of shock in their hearts. It's hard to imagine that Xiao Yue'er's small body has such a powerful power, it's incredible.
Face up and look at the starry night sky. Xiao Man's heart is now like thousands of crows flying by, so chaotic. He couldn't figure out where he had provoked Xiao Yue'er, why was he treated so cruelly and mercilessly by Xiao Yue'er?
Suddenly, a beautiful face appeared in front of Xiao Man's eyes. The face is beautiful, but it is covered with frost. The woman didn't say anything, just stared coldly at Xiao Man lying on the ground.
"Ah, sister, why are you here?" Xiao Man was surprised and immediately got up from the ground. Looking at the woman in front of him, that is, his sister Quartz.
Quartz squinted, glanced at Xiao Man, and said, "What's the matter? Is the ground very comfortable? What are you doing lying on the ground?"
"Ugh!"
"That's, that's right. You see, on such a hot day, it is cooler on the ground, and it is cooler when lying on the ground. Xiao Man hurriedly rolled over and got up from the ground. His eyes flickered, and he replied with a haha.
"Hot?" Quartz said with a squinting look as he raised his hand, feeling the cold wind passing by.
"Ahem, ahem!"
Xiaoman also felt the cold wind blowing around him, and the lie was exposed. Xiao Man's face also became a little unnatural. Immediately said, "Hey, sister, aren't you going to take a bath today?"
He didn't want Quartz to know that he was beaten by Xiao Yue'er, which was a shame. So I hurriedly began to change the subject.
As soon as Xiao Man's words fell, I saw Quartz glance at Xiao Man with an idiot look and said, "Didn't I tell you when I went to take a bath just now?"
At this time, Xiao Man noticed Quartz's wet hair, and remembered what happened half an hour ago... At that time, I remember that Quartz did say that she went to take a bath, but now it happened suddenly, and he forgot about it all at once.
"What, the person you saved woke up?" said Quartz turning his head to look at Ye Chen, who was among the villagers.
In the distance, everyone separated in a line, which was the direction in which Xiao Man flew out.
"It's the girl during the day!"
Ye Chen looked along the route where everyone was separated, her beautiful face was deeply imprinted in Ye Chen's mind, she was not wearing a ponytail like during the day, but her hair was scattered. The black and bright hair is draped over the shoulders, which is different from the lively character of the day, but a kind of charm.
It just so happened that at this time, Quartz turned his head and glanced at Ye Chen, looking at each other. This is Ye Chen's first feeling, this feeling is different from his character, it is more like coming from the heart, he feels very cold from the heart, and in layman's terms, he is ———— ruthless. Like an emotionless machine.
This woman's personality is very different from her outward appearance. This is an idea that Ye Chen came up with out of thin air. Ye Chen didn't know why he felt this way for this person he had never met, but it was like a trace of blood flowing in the dark, and his chest felt like it was burned by fire, and there would be pain. Ye Chen couldn't tell what it was like, was it pitiful?
But why do you have such thoughts? You've never met before?
Ye Chen shook his head, unable to figure it out.
Looking at what Xiao Man and the two of them were saying, they walked straight over this way.
"Hey, Xiaoying, you just came back from a shower?"
"Yes, Aunt Li. Hearing Aunt Li's greeting, Quartz immediately replied.
"Have you eaten? ”
"Eat, Aunt Wang. ”
I have to say that quartz is quite popular in the village, and all kinds of greetings are endless.
After a while, the two of them came straight to Ye Chen from the crowd.
This is the first time Ye Chen has seen her up close, and her beautiful face makes people feel unearthly. The wet short hair shawl makes people feel very charming.
The little man on the side made a face, bowed his head depressedly, and looked a little pitiful, but when he showed it, he felt quite funny.
Quartz squinted and glanced at Xiao Man, with a look of disgust. Obviously, she also felt deeply helpless about her brother. But there's no way, who calls Xiaoman thick-skinned!
Quartz shook his head, turned his head to look at Ye Chen, and found that Ye Chen was no different from ordinary people except for being dressed a little strangely.
Quartz was about to speak, when suddenly a small body suddenly appeared and hugged him.
"Sister Quartz!"
Xiao Yue'er hugged Quartz and suddenly closed her mouth happily. The little face was pressed against the quartz snow-white thighs, rubbing back and forth, very happy.
"Tsk, children are good. Ye Chen looked at Xiao Yue'er, who was attached to the idiot thigh of Quartz, and thought enviously. His eyes were blazing, and he wanted to hug him.
Ye Chen's eyes fluttered, and he slowly looked up, wanting to see his face again.
Bang bang bang!
The heart beats uncontrollably faster. He was very nervous at the moment, excited and a little scared. He was afraid that Quartz would find out that he was spying on her.
"Well, why do you feel like a thief?"
Ye Chen cautiously raised his gaze, and finally saw her beautiful face.
"Boom!"
A cold wind blew, Ye Chen was stunned, and his heartbeat suddenly became extremely fast. He saw that Quartz's beautiful face was covered with frost at this moment, like a piece of ice in that extremely cold place, extremely cold. It makes people tremble.
Ye Chen was shaken all over.
"She, she wouldn't know she was spying on her, would she?" Ye Chen hurriedly shifted his gaze and thought tremblingly.
After Ye Chen moved his gaze, he thought about it, what is he afraid of as a big man?
Thinking about it, Ye Chen comforted himself again and said, "That's right, I look at her with an aesthetic eye." So there's nothing to be afraid of. Then, he pulled his face, and added weakly at the end: "Maybe!"
After thinking about everything, Ye Chen raised his head, ready to look directly at Quartz.
It's just that when Ye Chen's eyes first came into contact with her beautiful face, a cold, emotionless word spit out from her mouth.
"Get out!"
