Chapter 289 - The Mark of Vanishing (13)
When Chi Mudie rode her silent goose back to the unknown village, it was almost dawn, and Chi Mudie was not in a hurry to return to the place where the old man pretended to be dead, but first went around to the downstream of the waterfall that the man said, found a piece of soft ground covered with dry leaves, and lay down to rest first, while sorting out the news in his head, while closing his eyes and resting.
After Chi Mudie scared Wu Ma Xi just now, it seemed that he had walked into the teleportation array and left the reverse dragon, but in fact, he opened the exit of the teleportation array in another hidden place of the reverse dragon, and let Xiao Yao, who had been scared stupidly, stay in place, and he quickly went back to the place just now, first saw Wu Ma Xi sitting on the ground and muttering to herself, and then quietly followed her out of the cave all the way. Originally, she thought that she would quickly return to the village to confirm, but she just stood at the door of the cave and breathed a few breaths of fresh air, and then resolutely returned to her underground laboratory as if she had made up her mind.
Thinking of this, Chi Mudie couldn't help but sigh a little distressed, rolled up her sleeves and looked at the black fox paw mark on her arm, and muttered to herself: "This Wu Ma Xi is really difficult! It is estimated that these two people will not even know what she is doing, and it may not be of much value to threaten her with them...... The little nugget said, "This paw print was left by a fox, could it be that it was a black fox that kicked us that night?" But where did Wu Ma Xi get this black fox that came and went without a trace? Could it be that the water demon gave it to her? But that thing doesn't have a similar aura to demonic energy? Alas! I don't know if this paw print will have any effect on us. I hope that Chubai will hurry up and finish the affairs over there and go to see the situation on Canglan's side, otherwise he should be cranky and worried again. ”
Chi Mudie muttered here, put down his arms a little tiredly, looked at the last few stars in the sky before dawn, and sighed softly: "Alas! It's really tiring to open the teleportation array several times in one night, anyway, if you go back early, you will also be suspected by that person, and it sounds like the old man is finally reliable this time, so I'll sleep here first." ”
After Chi Mudie finished speaking, she smiled lightly, listened to the fact that there was really no unusual movement over there, and then turned over and began to sleep lightly. When she woke up, it was already noon the next day, and it was estimated that the time to go back was almost up, so Chi Mudie got up and summoned the Phantom Smoke Bear that would grow, and asked it to smear some mud and moss on the side of the waterfall on her body, and the Phantom Smoke Bear also cooperated to find a mud pond, and after rolling around, she rubbed her body the moss-covered stones next to the waterfall, and finally completely turned herself into a big yellow and green mud bear.
Chi Mudie couldn't help laughing when she saw this, she followed the example of the Phantom Smoke Bear, put some yellow mud and moss on herself, and finally pulled up the sleeve of her arm without black paw prints, rubbed it the rough rock a few times, leaving a lot of blood marks like abrasions, and casually pulled a handful of herbs growing next to the waterfall, and then pushed the fat Phantom Smoke Bear to climb to the upper reaches of the waterfall, and returned to the place where the old man pretended to be dead yesterday.
"Xiao Jin! I have found the big bear and herbs! Daddy ......" The girl who ran back excitedly all the way just shouted in a distant place, but saw that the place where her father was lying yesterday was empty at this time, and immediately rushed to the front with an anxious face, and saw that only the little golden fox came out to meet her, so she hurriedly picked up the little fox and asked, "Little Jin, why are you the only one here?"
"If your little fox can speak, it will say, 'You blind girl won't let go of me, your father is lying down under the tree over there!'"
As soon as the girl's anxious words fell, a voice sounded beside her that made her extremely annoying, the girl turned around when she heard this, glared at the man very unhappily, and pouted at the man with a suspicious face: "I don't believe that you will be so kind to move my father under the tree! Maybe you are just plotting against you, and you want to see if my father has anything valuable!"
The man listened to her words, and also folded his arms and reasoned with her: "Hey, why are you little girl so unreasonable? If I want to take your father's valuable things, and I won't leave after I get them, are you still here waiting to be caught?"
"How do I know if your mind will be out of order like that!" the girl was not to be outdone, and quickly ran to her father's side to check on his injuries.
At this time, the woman sitting next to her also came over and explained to the girl with a smile: "Little sister, don't be angry with Brother Jing! He suspected you yesterday, but it was also for my safety." After you left yesterday, Brother Jing went back to our place and brought your father a thin quilt and a pill to treat injuries, your father's condition is also very stable now, fortunately, there are no fractures, but there are many bruises on his body, and he has been frightened. We wanted to move him back to where we lived, but we were afraid that you wouldn't find him when you returned, so we waited for you here. Now that you're back and your bear has been found, why don't you go back to where we live and rest for a while?"
The girl listened to the woman's invitation, but bowed her head with a little doubt and said, "Thank you sister for your kindness, but we are people who are being chased everywhere, will that cause any trouble for my sister?"
The woman listened to her words, chuckled and took her hand, shook her head slowly, and said, "It's okay, there have never been outsiders in our village, and you are the first people to come here! They don't like me in the first place, and I hate them, so it's my freedom to take whoever I want to bring home, and they don't like it anyway, no matter what I do, so why should I care about their feelings!"
After the woman finished speaking, she got up and took the girl's hand, and continued to smile at her gently: "Okay, don't think so much, let's wash you and this big mud bear with the river water over there, and then go home together! Speaking of which, I don't know your name yet! My name is Wu Maxi, and the brother who is a little fierce over there is called Bai Jing, don't look at him usually being fierce to everyone, in fact, he is a very gentle person! What is your name, sister?"
When the woman said her name, Chi Mudie was immediately shocked in her heart, and was thinking about how she could be called Wu Ma Xi, but suddenly she had an idea, pretending to be happy on the surface, picked up a branch from the nearby ground, and wrote on the soft ground: "My name is Li Bingyue, sister, you can call me Bingyue." Hehe, my father taught me these words!"
The woman who said that her name was Wu Ma Xi seemed to be quite happy when she saw Bingyue writing, so she also picked up a branch from the ground and wrote the names 'Wu Ma Xi and Bai Jing', smiled at Bing Yue again, and asked, "Sister Bingyue seems to like writing very much?
Bingyue listened to her words, happily pointed to the word 'Xi', and said excitedly: "I know this word, my father said that this is Xi, it means sunset, sister, you are really as good as your name, beautiful and gentle! ”
Wu Maxi listened to Bingyue's words, but was stunned for a moment, and then smiled gently: "Your little mouth is really sweet! Your appearance is also pretty and cute, it should be very likable, is it because of your unique eyes? I think your eyes are very beautiful! Just like the clear blue water under the waterfall...... No, no, it's shallower than that, and it's even prettier!"
Hearing Wu Ma Xi say this, Bingyue also pouted proudly: "That's it, I also think my eyes are very good-looking, but the people in the village don't say that my eyes are demon pupils, which will bring disaster to them." But then when my father and I were traveling around, we met a traveling merchant, and when he saw my eyes, he was very surprised to tell us that the brother and sister who are now in charge of Phantom Wing Island have exactly the same eye color as mine! It's the same as when we see something we haven't seen before, we feel scared. ”
Wu Maxi was stunned when she heard Bingyue's words, and after watching her finish speaking, he smiled at her lightly, and beckoned the big mud bear to stand on the shallow river beach in the past, rolled up his sleeves and happily picked up the clear water in the river to wash away the mud on the big bear's body, and the big bear also followed her example, and slapped a burst of water at her with a huge bear paw.
Looking at the happy picture of the girl and the big bear playing on the river beach, Wu Ma Xi's heart also seemed to be stirred up by her layers of ripples, and when she turned her head to look at the man named Bai Jing next to her, she found that he was also looking at the girl playing with the big bear on the river beach with a smile, and there was a little nostalgia and regret in his smile.
Wu Maxi looked at Bai Jing's expression, bit her lip unconsciously, and finally walked slowly to Bai Jing's side with determination, and sighed softly in an extremely subtle voice: "This girl is really exactly the same as my sister's personality when she was young!"
Bai Jing listened to her words, but instantly froze in place, and finally turned his head in surprise after a while, and whispered in a voice that trembled slightly: "Xiaoxi......?"
Wu Maxi didn't listen to him continue, so he put a finger to his lips and smiled at him a little sadly: "Brother Jing, when the father and daughter are gone, let's sit down and talk about it." ”
