The next day, when Liu Xiu woke up, he found himself lying on Jin Biao's back. It was already dawn, and Jin Biao supported her with one hand, not knowing how long she had been gone.

"Morning!"

Feeling the movement on his back, Jin Biao calmly greeted her. Liu Xiu was a little embarrassed: "Early." Uh, you can put me down. ”

Jin Biao put Liu Xiu down and said to her coldly, "Your sleeping state is not very good. ”

Liu Xiu looked at the wetness on his neck, and his face suddenly turned red to the root of his ears: "Uh, I'm sorry." ”

Jin Biao couldn't help laughing, he pointed to the front and said, "After crossing this mountain, you will arrive." ”

Liu Xiu looked forward and felt a reckless hazelnut. She didn't want to leave, but she looked at the firm and cold Jin Biao, and didn't dare to say anything.

He should give up his life to accompany the gentleman.

At noon, the two gradually walked down the mountain. When Jin Biao pushed aside the bushes and revealed the day, his whole person seemed to have lost his soul, and he looked at everything in front of him stupidly.

Liu Xiu leaned over, she looked around, and saw that there was an empty space in front of her.

It was a small, deserted village.

Jin Biao stood at the tuyere and stood for a long, long time. He didn't say a word, but carefully looked at every hut and every grass and tree. Liu Xiu saw that he was stunned, and held his hand and shook it for a long time, but he didn't feel it.

"Jin Biao, what's wrong with you?"

Jin Biao didn't speak, his deep thoughts had already flown back to the distant past.

"Jin Biao, Jin Biao, don't be like this!" Liu Xiu's voice began to become anxious.

Jin Biao lowered his head and looked at Liu Xiu, and he asked in a low voice, "Do you want to go to my hometown?"

Liu Xiu wanted to refuse, but looking at Jin Biao's appearance, he didn't know how to speak.

She was really worried that Jin Biao would be in love, and once this iron man also shed tears, she really didn't know how to coax him.

"Jin Biao, why don't we ...... Hey, you wait for me!"

Before Liu Xiu's words were finished, Jin Biao strode towards the village. Liu Xiu had to follow him.

The village was already overgrown with waist-deep artemisia grass, and Jin Biao slowly cut it with a knife as he walked towards the village. Flocks of crows hovered in the air, making oozing calls. Occasionally, a fox startled out and swooped into the grass and disappeared.

Liu Xiu only felt a burst of desolation: such a place is simply creepy.

Finally, the two came to a crooked adobe house. Jin Biao was tall, he lowered his head, and only then did he reluctantly walk in through the main entrance. Liu Xiu thought that the house was not clean, but he was afraid that Jin Biao would do something stupid, so he had to follow him in.

The house was covered with dust and cobwebs, and there was only one table, an earthen kang and four chairs in the main hall. A straw mat eaten by insects is spread on the kang, and you can vaguely see the smoothness of the year. The quilt was piled on the ground, and the cotton wool inside had already turned black. There was an oil lamp on the table, and a sewing kit, the thread had long since rotted into threads, and a few rusty needles were still stuck in it.

Jin Biao couldn't help but reach out and pull out a needle, and there seemed to be tears flashing in his eyes. Liu Xiu wanted to speak, but he didn't know what to say. For the first time in her life, she wanted to speak out to comfort someone.

Jin Biao looked at it for a long time before inserting the needle back. At this time, he found a rusted axe in the corner. Jin Biao wiped the cobwebs on it before picking it up.

The axe is heavy, but the handle of the axe has long been rotten and wormed. Jin Biao carefully put the axe and the sewing box together, for fear of breaking it a little.

Liu Xiu asked timidly, "Is this a relic of your father?"

Jin Biao nodded: "Yes." My father used to be a woodcutter, and he collected firewood every day, and when he came back from the mountain in the evening, my mother would sew and mend under this lamp. When I went to the market the next morning to change the money, my father bought rice and occasionally brought maltose for my sister and me. But then there was a plague, and the village was wiped out, and my father and sister were not spared, and I was the only one left. ”

Jin Biao said this very calmly, as if he was talking about someone else's business. But when she heard Liu Xiu's heart, she grabbed Jin Biao's sleeve and comforted softly: "Don't be too sad." ”

Jin Biao took Liu Xiu's hand: "You come with me." ”

He led her under the stove in the kitchen. Jin Biao squatted down and took out one after another small apples, small hawthorns and other things burned from the yellow mud from the stove pit. Liu Xiu asked in surprise, "Hey, who did this?"

Jin Biao put one of the small apples on the palm of her hand: "This is what I did." ”

Liu Xiu couldn't help but praise: "What a skillful craft!"

Jin Biao's voice was unwavering: "I've sent you, if you like it." ”

Liu Xiu raised his head: "This is probably what you did for your sister, right?"

Jin Biao nodded: "Yes." Unfortunately, my sister didn't get a look. ”

Liu Xiu's eyes dimmed. Jin Biao continued: "The morning my sister left, she had a very high fever. In this way, she muttered that she wanted to play with the little apple and hawthorn, and she said that the little girls in the village had it, but she didn't. I dug up the yellow mud on the mountain and pinched these gadgets for her, but I didn't expect my sister to die before it was burned. These things have been left in the stove pit, and I have never dared to touch them. ”

Liu Xiu's throat was suddenly choked, she snorted, but didn't say anything.

Jin Biaochang continued: "After my sister left, I was the only one left in the village. I was so desperate that I stayed in the village alone for two months without dying. I was going to jump off the river, but I didn't expect to meet Jin Dazhuang there. He asked me if I wanted to go with him, and I didn't hesitate to go with him. You will know everything in the future. ”

Liu Xiu carefully picked up these gadgets and wrapped them in a delicate handkerchief: "I will keep these well." ”

The corners of Jin Biao's mouth showed an imperceptible smile: "Let's go, let's go to the river." ”

The two of them left the room one after the other.

At the same time, Benlei Gate was about to become a mess. Liu Dai ignored his serious injuries and just recovered, and took Liu Cen and Liu Feng to turn the inside and outside of Lulunshan City upside down, and did not find Liu Xiu's shadow.

But at this time, the quarterly assessment of Benleimen is about to begin. The third elder Lei Ping gave a death order: this quarter, it is necessary to skillfully apply a set of sword techniques and a set of palm techniques, and if the results are not qualified, he will go to the Three Provinces Cave to practice by himself for a month.

This is a big deal for the Liu brothers. If Liu Xiu can't be found before the assessment, then her escape will definitely be exposed. They don't know what will happen then.

Xiao Qingzhu was indifferent to this. Seeing that the decoration of Liu Feng's restaurant was about to be completed, she was also ready to leave.

But what happened later made Xiao Qingzhu keep complaining that he didn't leave too early.
