Chapter 35
I don't know how long it took? Zhang Fei fell into the trap, only to feel that the small square sky above his head changed from bright to dark, and from dark to bright......
At first it barked at it for a while, hoping to get help. But later it turned out that it was completely futile to do so, and how could anyone save it in this hellish place?
Perhaps, it will only attract more ferocious beasts for it!
It's better to save some effort and hold on a little longer.
As for whether there is any impact or change in the outcome?
It's an instinct to survive, even if you can only live one more moment, that's good!
Hunger, become the biggest enemy at the moment!
The bottom of the well is full of pits of dirt that it has dug out. During this time, it dug up three straightened earthworms with chopsticks and a white worm in the damp mud. Compared with earthworms full of muddy smell, it still feels that the slippery and plump worms are more delicious, and it actually has the taste of "chicken" when chewing.
"Ka" - finally vomited in disgust......
Because of hunger, the limbs became limp, and they could no longer support their bodies, so they could only let it stick to the ground like mud......
It's another dark night.
Zhang Fei tilted his head and shrugged his eyelids, if it weren't for the slight movement of his nostrils when he was panting, the whole thing would be no different from a dead dog!
It feels that its time is short, and even if it is reluctant, it has to be forced to accept its fate!
As everyone knows, in the darkness at this moment, there are two pairs of footsteps, accompanied by the sound of grass and trees, from far to near.
One of them, with a relatively thick voice, walks heavily on the ground on his toes, obviously deliberately retracting his strength, and walking in a hurry but cautiously - this should be a man.
The other pair, lighter than the others, may sound careless, but in fact they are staggered and at the same time slightly pretentious - obviously a woman.
The sound of these two pairs of footsteps, one after the other, walked to the trap and disappeared.
A head poked out of the trap and looked at it.
After a while, I heard the man's deep voice: "It seems that there is a harvest ......"
"Oh?" said the woman beside her, her voice was coquettish and magnetic, with a kind of magical power that made people think, "that—what is it?"
"It's dark, I can't see clearly! It doesn't seem to be very ......," the man said.
"Why didn't Master Li go down and catch it?" the woman laughed, "Are you afraid of being hurt by it?"
"What's that?" the man was a little displeased, but he didn't seem to dare to attack, "take a look first, it's always good to be careful." ”
As he spoke, he took out the fire fold from his bosom, blew it up, and took a picture of the bottom of the well.
The firelight danced, reflecting his face: in his forties, thin face, deep eye sockets, and an eagle-hooked nose. A pair of eyes are uncertain. As the saying goes: those with eagle hooks in their noses are quite scheming.
I saw him show a disappointed look and scolded: "Damn, I thought it was something - it turned out to be a dog." What's the use of this thing? It seems that this trip is going to be in vain!"
If Zhang Fei listens to this, he will not be happy.
Uncle, people are clearly mastiffs, okay!
But at this moment, it is only looking forward to escaping, how can it have the heart to compare this truth?
Suddenly, I saw a flash of "light" above my head, and I didn't know where I got the strength, so I stood up from the ground and shook my tail desperately at the mouth of the trap and begged for mercy.
The man didn't look at it again, but muttered to himself, "Strange...... How can there be a house dog in such a wild place?"
He apparently caught a glimpse of a red rope tied around Zhang Fei's neck.
This red rope was naturally tied for it by Mo Wen. As for its original intention, it wanted a beautiful golden bell that was exactly the same as the one worn by Ah Huang in the neighboring village.
But Mo Wen said that the bell needs to be bought, but the rope can be given away for free.
......
On the other side, when the woman heard this, she also leaned over to look at it with interest.
This is a face that will be unforgettable just by looking at it!
In fact, the twenty-year-old mantis head moth eyebrows, as long as the facial features are correct, the skin is white, and after a little powder, it is all beautiful.
But the point is that between this woman's eyebrows and eyes, there is a natural charm, enchantment, and amorous charm - as if she can charm people's souls with a smile.
This is a stunner-like existence!
When she looked down, Zhang Fei was also looking forward to it.
After looking at each other, I only heard the woman smile and say, "Yo...... Looking at this, it seems to be well-behaved and pitiful. It's better to bring it back and keep it as a pet. ”
These words should have made Zhang Fei excited, but the man threw out a sentence disdainfully: "The business is still too busy, who has the time to raise a waste?"
Zhang Fei was in his heart, and he wanted to greet his ancestors.
What's even more infuriating is that after each of them glanced at it, the two of them turned their attention away and completely ignored its existence!
In the mountains and forests, the night is thick.
The woman's beautiful eyes flowed, as if she was enjoying the night scene in this foreign place, and after a while, she smiled and said: "The words of the master are not necessarily the words of the slave family. Some people are obviously busy, but behind their backs, as soon as they turn around, they go to a private tryst with the maid of the 'Sanshengtang'. ”
The man's face tightened, and he hurriedly said, "What do you mean by this...... Your Excellency must not speak nonsense. If this kind of rumor spreads into the ears of the above, Li Mou will never be able to bear it. ”
"Giggle...... Isn't it rumor, Li Shi himself still has no number in his heart? They all say that men and sons are big husbands, and they act frankly, so why bother to act here?" the woman smiled charmingly when she questioned people. It's just that there is obviously a thorn in this charming smile.
The man couldn't help but be stunned, and sneered at each other: "I'm afraid this kind of thing is not uncommon in the Venerable Envoy, right?"
When the woman heard this, not only did she not get angry, but she smiled even brighter. She seemed to be a wild rose in the dark night, and the night did not dissolve her intensity, but lost its color.
That's not true. Although the slave family often has the heart of double cultivation, the rules are strict and they dare not trespass. Thinking about this kind of thing is also exciting to do, but the slave family just dares to think about it, and it can't be done. Moreover, those who can enter my incense must also be carefully selected, not those cats, dogs, and ordinary pawns, they can be touched casually. ”
This was said unhurriedly, but the implication was clear: first, you ate secretly in the door, and violated the prohibition; Second, you have low taste, and you even play with maids, and we can't compare.
Suddenly, the man was speechless.
She asked again, "Is the maid's surname Qiu?"
"How did you know? Isn't it by my side, and you also have eyeliner?" the man said with a nervous expression.
"Hehe, who of those big people above doesn't have hands and eyes? Master Li thinks that your little trick of stealing chickens and dogs can escape their eyes?"
Seeing that the man was silent, her tone softened slightly, "But Master Li doesn't need to be too nervous, although the rules are strict, but at the same time, there are rewards and punishments, as long as you do things well here, I believe that the superiors will not be embarrassed by you." ”
"Yes...... Be..... The envoy said very much. When it came to this, the man had to bow his head and give in.
Raising his eyes again at this woman whose cultivation was not as good as his own, he suddenly thought that this vixen was the person sent by the Great Elder to nominally "assist" him.
Alas, how can people not bow their heads when they are under the eaves?
In fact, he changed his flattering face again, and only said: "At that time, I hope that the Venerable Envoy will have a lot of good words from the Great Elder!"
His appearance at this time bowed down to his ears, and in the eyes of the woman, she firmly believed that this guy in front of her was a cheap bone - if he was whipped from time to time, he would not be honest!
"That's easy to say. This fox spirit, after cleaning up the house, did not forget to tease him: "Anyway, although the maid surnamed Qiu is also average, that figure is not bad, uneven, round and jade, but I don't know if the kung fu of serving Master Li is home?"
The man's face turned red, he thought about it, and said, "I'm ashamed...... Ashamed...... That vulgar fan...... Since it is not worth mentioning, how can it be worthy of the national color and fragrance of the envoy, and the fame is far and wide?"
When the woman heard this, she smiled.
I scolded in my heart: You half-old thing, don't forget to ridicule me when you come!
"The fame is far and wide, and the slave family is really ashamed. Thinking that my colorful clouds are infamous for lewdness, but everyone knows it, and no one knows it. ”
Laughing even more!
"This crazy woman!" Li scolded in his heart, and the gaze on her face was unconsciously attracted to move down when she laughed and trembled—
In the eye, there is the tulle shawl, the placket is half-broken, and the snow-white place is magnificent......
Seeing that his heart was shocked, and his throat was bulging.
"The slave family has a question that is quite puzzled. Since Master Li needs a spirit animal to test the medicine, he can just catch a few of them, why do you need to wait for the rabbit like this right now, and make it so troublesome?" the woman asked.
"The envoy didn't know anything, but when he caught those spirit beasts a few times ago to test the medicine, there was a lot of movement, and I am afraid that he has been noticed here. Li thought that in this extraordinary period, it was really not appropriate to make a big deal and expose it too early, so he made this decision. ”
"Hmm. You've got a good idea. But I think it's just a trap, and it's probably okay to trap an ordinary beast, but if you really fall into a spirit beast, I'm afraid it's ......."
The man seemed to expect her to ask this question, "hehe" smiled, moved a few steps to the side of the trap, squatted down, and pushed aside a tuft of hay, only to see a small stone pillar appear there, and a huge spirit stone was inlaid with a huge spirit stone on the pillar, which was shining in the dark night.
The woman suddenly understood a little, and said with her head bowed: "Ouch...... So you're trapped here?"
The man said with a sense of interest: "This array has eight large and small arrays, which are arranged in eight directions at the edge of the wellhead, and it is one of them in front of you. In addition, there is a mechanism at the mouth of the trap, and once a heavy object is stepped on, the formation will be activated. Once this array is activated, hehe, don't say that trapping ordinary spirit beasts is a thousand-year-old monster that has advanced to the transformation stage, and it doesn't take half a day to break free!"
"Oh, I can't imagine that this seemingly inconspicuous little formation can be so powerful?"
"Eh! There is no difference between the size of the formation, but the use is different. If this array is magnified, it will not be difficult to trap thousands of troops!" the man seemed to be full of confidence.
"I was a master specializing in alchemy, and I didn't expect to be quite accomplished in formations, but today it was an eye-opener for the slave family. "When he speaks, his eyes are like silk.
The man grinned, as if he was smiling, but at this moment he was thinking in his heart: "You yellow-haired girl, you still have a lot to learn! If it weren't for the great elder behind your back to support you, Lao Tzu would immediately push you to the ground and enjoy it well." When you serve well, Lao Tzu will be happy, and maybe he will pass you a trick and a half......"
Of course, this is something that you would never dare to say at the moment!
I heard the woman ask again: "Haven't you tried your medicine to control spirit beasts a few times before?
"Something went wrong...... cough, last time, there was a spar tiger after testing the medicine, and after being severely injured by others, it actually got out of control. This made me think that the original recipe might have a flaw. Now that it's been reconfigured, if nothing else, it should be foolproof. Just wait to catch a slightly higher level spirit animal, and you will know it when you try it. After a pause, the man added, "Li knows that this time the boss attaches great importance to this matter, so he doesn't dare to slack off in the slightest." ”
"Good, good!" the woman looked approving.
Seeing that the woman didn't ask any more questions, the man put the hay that had been removed from the eyes of the formation and covered it again.
Then he ran to the vicinity, found a pile of branches and hay, and covered the mouth of the trap.
In the process, he could hear the constant whining and wailing from Zhang Fei's nose from the bottom of the well, and he didn't even lift his eyelids.
After some careful trimming, he got up and looked at the sky, and said to the woman: "It's not too early now, why don't you go back today first, and try your luck again at this time tomorrow?"
"It's fine. Before the woman turned around, she still did not forget to caress gracefully for a while, and the hair that hung in front of her delicate figure.
The two said they would go.
Zhang Fei's world has returned to silent darkness, no, it is darker than before!
God gave it a hope in vain, but it was strangled in such a cruel way!
But if you can speak, it will definitely scold your mother at this moment!
Is this teasing me?
Didn't you say okay, take it away as a pet?
No matter how bad it is, take it back and stew it into dog meat!
But why do you want me to stay in this damn place and die?
It felt a great sorrow in its body, which it had never felt before in the face of any desperate situation.
It began to tear out its throat and howl, and the voice, anger, desolation, and sorrow, gradually dried up with its strength and faith, and finally turned into a trace of sorrow, annihilated in this endless darkness......
When the first bright beam of light fell on the door of his eyes, Zhang Fei thought that he had gone to another world.
In its view, the light was so holy and bright that it could dispel all darkness and gloom.
After that, more and more beams of light came in one after another, and continued to expand, and soon, it was enveloped all around.
Perhaps it felt a little dazzling, and its eyes began to squint slowly.
In a trance, it seems that something has fallen from the sky?
Actually, there was a pair of arms that gently lifted it up.
The tenderness that came from between the fingers seemed to penetrate every pore of its body.
This feeling is just like a naked child, plunged into the warm and comfortable arms of his mother in winter, and from then on, there is no more severe cold, no more worry-free, and he can sleep peacefully in a moment.
Zhang Fei at this moment is that child!
......
Old man Sun really didn't ask.
After Mo Wen spent half a day erecting all the pillars of more than 30 houses in the village, he immediately arranged other work for him.
People can see Mo Wen's shirtless posture in every corner of the construction site.
He was shirtless, not because he was afraid of sweating, but because he didn't want to stain his clothes.
The sweaty body is washed clean with water, which is simple.
What's more, these jobs are really not physical work for him! At the end of the day, he can't sweat a few drops.
But if the clothes are dirty, they have to be rinsed and dried, then it will be troublesome!
Don't ask if you don't want to waste your time on this now.
But what he didn't know was that there were more and more girls in this village, willing and looking forward to doing it for him!
The topic that the villagers talked about the most in their leisure time in the past two days was him, a new foreigner.
It is said that he was born with divine power, and he alone robbed most of the village's physical work.
From morning to night, and from dark to dawn, it seems that I never feel tired.
What's even more amazing is that he does so much work at the same time, he hardly has to eat much!
With this question in mind, the women turned their eyes to the man beside them, and then shook their heads and sighed.
Having a lot of strength, working a lot, and eating too little -- this is a laborer that cannot afford to lose money! Wouldn't it be a pity if he didn't recruit into his own house? The elders who were good at running the family crossed their fingers and calculated in their hearts.
So the daughters in the family who are waiting to be married are ready to take action. Naturally, in this matter, you have to fight for the opinion of your daughter.
To their relief, the ladies either bowed their heads and shyly twisted the corners of their clothes into joyful flowers, or immediately turned to pick out the most valuable tokens from their personal belongings.
In fact, this result can be seen by a discerning person without asking. Since the children in the village took Mo Wenshu as their idol and formed a small gang that often surrounded him, more and more girls have also participated in it.
They occupied the position where they thought they were not far from Mo Wen, and they would stop and watch. Enthusiastic and bold, he took the initiative to come forward to serve him tea and water. Timid and shy, he hesitated in place, clutching the small embroidered silk handkerchief that had been prepared for him and used to dry it, and before he could hand it over, he was already soaked with sweat in his palm......
Aunt Li, who has an excellent popularity in the village, has received the most task in the past two days after work, which is to entrust her to protect the media. This made her extremely troubled! They all belonged to the villagers, and if they fulfilled their wishes, they would offend that family, so how could this be good? In a hurry, they had to go to Hao Haisheng to discuss countermeasures.
After hearing the intention, Hao Haisheng didn't have time to speak, and his great-grandfather next to him, Hao Laosi, one of the four elders, was anxious when he heard it, how could he give it up casually to others if he was so cheap?
But there is no suitable girl in my family right now!
You can't let people ask and wait for their great-great-granddaughter to grow up before getting married, right? That baby is only eight months old now!
But I missed the opportunity, and I was unwilling!
After pondering hard, he said to Hao Haisheng: "If it really doesn't work, the old man will come forward and recognize Mo Wen as his godson!
When Hao Haisheng heard this, he almost cried on the spot: In this way, what does he have to call Mo Wen?
Hao Laosi thought about it right, and changed his words: "Then you and him will be brothers." ”
Hao Haisheng refused again. He is a good-looking person, and he can't do this kind of naked thing!
Hao Laosi immediately stretched his face and said angrily: "This can't be done, that's not possible, what do you want?"
Hao Haisheng thought for a while, and a flash of inspiration struck him, and he said happily: "Didn't the ancestors forget, don't we have a post-born girl of the right age......" said, pointing to one of the several girls who were sitting around a bonfire not far away.
Hao Laosi took advantage of the situation to look at it, and after a while, he understood, stroked his beard and smiled, squeezed his eyebrows and said, "You mean-mulberry leaves?"
