Chapter 23 Eagle Monster Raid
The cool breeze ruffled our sleeves, and the people behind me held my shoulders and their fingers trembled.
"My clothes are soaked with water, and the wind blows, but Childe feels cold?" I tugged at the reins, and the horse's hooves slowed down.
"It's a little chilly, but it doesn't matter. He coughed slightly, and moved away from me, for fear that the cold water would touch me, "It's getting late, let's leave as soon as possible." ”
"Duplicity. I stretched out my hand, untied my cloak and put it back, "You scholars, you only know how to immerse yourself in hard study, and your body has always been thin. Put it on, and we're on our way—"
There was no sound behind him for a moment, and a chuckle came from a moment.
"Thank you. ”
......
Passing through this forest, it is the Black Dragon Village. The village is unpretentious, the huts are lit by candlelight, and the smoke is gradually rising.
As soon as they saw me returning, Xiao Yun and Erhuzi greeted me with a smile and hurriedly took the bamboo basket.
"Hey, the owner of the village is hunting today, why did he hunt a beautiful man?" Xiao Yun tilted her head, her eyes shining, "The owner of the village has such a good eye!"
Erhu bared his teeth and laughed with his mouth open, "Maybe it was robbed to be the lady of the village!"
"Go, go, love nonsense. My old face was red and white, and I slapped Erhu's head, "Quickly lead Yu Gongzi to change into clean clothes, if you don't serve well, I will send you out." ”
The second tiger covered his head with a sigh and led the jade boy to walk towards the village.
"The owner of the village, this son is born with a mark, why don't you really press him in the village as a wife?"
"I've been with that tiger for a long time, and your mouth is getting more and more uncontrollable. I shivered with cold when I lost my cloak, and rubbed my arms with my hands crossed, "Let's go, go to the house." ”
There was a fire next to the stove, which crackled from time to time. I put my arms on the table, my fingers crossed, staring at the delicious meal on the table, motionless.
Hey, Xiao Yun has a point, he's here, so it's better to leave him behind......
"No, no, no. ”
I held my sanity, shook my head, and continued to stare at the food. After staying for a while, I heard the door creak, and Yu Gongzi walked in.
changed into a bamboo-blue shirt, which made his skin as white as jade. I blinked my eyes twice and held out my arm in a gesture of please.
He lowered his eyebrows and smiled, and his voice drifted softly into my ears, "Thank you Miss Gu Pan for your hospitality." ”
"Let's try all these dishes. I smiled back and turned my head and handed the chopsticks over.
He took a piece of meat, chewed it carefully, and said politely, "This meat is crispy and tender, it's really the best." ”
I smiled contentedly and was about to answer, but my left ankle suddenly tightened, and I hurriedly lowered my eyebrows.
Strange, nothing......
Clearly the ankle is empty, why does it feel like being tied?
"Miss Gu Pan?"
"It's okay, it's okay. I shook my head, took a piece of meat and stuffed it into my mouth, and curled my eyes and smiled at him.
The jade plate is hung high, and it is not stained with dust. In the following time, Yu Gongzi adhered to the principle of eating and sleeping without speaking, so the room became quiet.
It was the first time I had shared a meal with a stranger since I was so old. Although I didn't talk to him more, there were thousands of wonderful thoughts in my heart.
Probably, it is exactly in response to that sentence, I don't know what to do......
Early the next morning, I led Yu Gongzi around. He took a few pieces of paper and wrote down what I said one by one, very seriously.
"This is the place where martial arts are practiced. I crossed my arms and raised my chin, "Martial arts training is all about starting from a doll, look over there." ”
Watching a few children beat the stakes indiscriminately, comparing them with each other from time to time, Yu Gongzi frowned slightly, but did not squeak.
I nodded with satisfaction, "Look at them one by one, how energetic!"
"Uh, Miss Gu Pan, where is that?"
I followed his hand and saw a large field of thorns wrapped around the fence, and on the other side of the forest grew a faint shrub, which looked unfathomable at first glance.
"That forest is called the Forbidden Forest, and there are often some strange demons and monsters. Naturally, I'm not afraid, but ......" I narrowed my eyes and wrinkled my nose, "Childe should stay away from there, I heard that monsters like to eat some white scholars the most." ”
The throat on the other side moved, and he was stunned.
"Don't be too alarmed, with me one day, I will definitely protect my son. I curled the corners of my mouth and shook my hair handsomely.
The other side suddenly shook his head with a smile, clenched his fists and coughed dryly, "It's all right." ”
What does it mean to be all?
"If Childe doesn't believe it, let's go and try it. I pouted, feeling challenged, and took him by the sleeve and walked towards the Forbidden Forest.
The ancient trees in the forest spread their dark arms, covering us in darkness. From time to time, there will be gusts of wind, like a cruel laughter, very infiltrating. Such a horrible sight, ordinary women should run away, but I did not panic.
Actually, it's not that I'm guts, it's just that I was a kid and liked to run around, and I've been here. This forest looks terrifying, but in fact, it is only a few goblins turned into animals, and they all treat me with great respect. How can I be afraid of something that doesn't hurt in the slightest?
"I see, Yu Gongzi still knows the difficulty and retreats. ”
The eyes of the person next to me rolled as if they were holding a victory, and they pulled out the sleeve of their shirt that was pinched in my hand and flicked it, "Gu Pan girl is not afraid, what danger can I have." ”
This little scholar still has a very bright brain.
I praised him in my heart, but on the surface I didn't think so, pouted and said, "Okay, son, please?"
Yu Gongzi flicked his long sleeves and strode inside. His back is outstanding, like a jade mountain.
In a trance, I felt like an emperor.
The huge branches of the ancient tree swayed, and the grass curled up its thin body, shivering helplessly.
Suddenly, a cry pierced the sky, and we all stopped and pricked up our ears.
An eagle monster fell from the tree, fluttering and flapping its huge wings, and a pair of golden eyes shone with a cold light. He stared at us for a long time, and then swooped down, his sharp beak cracking a terrifying opening.
It shouldn't be......
I frowned, grabbed the arm of the man in front of me and dodged to the side, but he turned around and pulled out the short knife from my waist, straddled in front of me, and blocked me tightly.
A set of martial arts moves is clean and neat, and it really doesn't look like an ordinary scholar.
Seeing that he was not hiding, the eagle monster must have thought that this was a stupid boy, so he relaxed his vigilance and rushed straight down, but at the last moment, the jade boy wrapped his arms around my waist, and a dodge, and the paper in his sleeve flew all over the sky.
The eagle monster felt teased, and when he turned back in anger, he was stabbed in one eye with a dagger.
Flying paper, I opened my mouth slightly in surprise. Dare to fight ghosts with mortal bodies, the courage is really amazing, this person is really not simple.
A wail startled the birds, and the eagle monster waved its wings, and shook us to the side, and was about to peck at us, I turned over to block the jade boy, and kicked the eagle monster in the bleeding eye with a whirlwind, buying some time.
"Be careful!"
A blue figure suddenly flashed in front of her, her black silk flew behind her head, and the flowing beads and silver ornaments on the top of her head collided and jingled.
A blinding white light knocked the eagle back, and it rolled a few times, weakly turning into a human form, lying motionless, but disappearing into thin air for a while.
"You, you......" I slumped my jaw and looked at the woman in blue blankly, "Are you a fairy?"
Before she could answer me, she just crouched down to help us up and asked, "Is there anything wrong with you?"
Yu Gongzi shook his head, "The blessing of dragging the girl is not injured." ”
It's all my recklessness that caused a false alarm......
"Thank you, girl, for your help. I sank my head and turned around to apologize to Yu Gongzi, "I'm sorry, it's Gu Pan who was reckless." ”
With a warm palm over my shoulder, I raised my eyes slightly.
Yu Gongzi lowered his head and smiled at me, "I need some bizarre things to write a book, if I hadn't used the method of radicalization to let the girl bring me in today, how could I have encountered this strange thing?"
"Huh? yes, you deliberately wanted to come?"
"Exactly. He nodded at me with his eyes at a gentle angle.
"But...... I said that I would definitely protect my son with me, but I still need you to protect me......" I still felt embarrassed and scratched my head in embarrassment.
"Fang Pan girl is very heroic, and she can also be described as a heroine among women, and that kick is kicking the sore spot of the eagle monster. He spread his hands and looked sideways to the left and right, "Besides, you see, how am I not thoughtful?"
There was a sudden mist in my eyes, and if I hadn't restrained myself, I would have pounced on it.
"This girl is strong in martial arts, and I really admire it. Yu Gongzi held one hand on his waist and brushed the other hand behind him, looking gentle, "Under the name of jade, can you ask the girl's name?"
"The little girl's name is Kuang Lu, and it just so happens to ...... I happened to be passing by here. ”
I happened to be passing by...... It turns out that there are still martial arts gangs lurking on the other side of the Forbidden Forest?
She lowered her eyebrows in response, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she raised her eyes to look at Yu Gongzi carefully, "I don't know why, Kuang Lu and the two of you hit it off at first sight, if Gongzi is in trouble, Kuang Lu will definitely come again." ”
"Thank you, Miss Kuang Lu, it's just that you don't have to bother the girl all the time......"
Kuang Lu is as beautiful as a fairy, and a small mole on her face is embellished, which makes her appearance more distinguishable. Seeing that the jade boy made of wood was about to reject the girl's good intentions, I stepped forward and crossed his words, and said, "I wonder if the girl can go to my village to sit in the village with her face?"
She opened her eyes slightly and nodded.
