Chapter 16 Hiding Eyes and Ears
The black cheetah bared its fangs at the wooden tiger, two puffs of hot air gushing out of its thick nostrils, and a low roar continued to emanate from its mouth.
At this moment, Mu Hu trembled with fright, he didn't dare to act rashly, he could only endure the tremor in his heart, and his eyes watched the black cheetah's every move.
For more than ten years, he has also seen many ferocious animals, but he has never seen a fierce beast as majestic and unangry as the black cheetah.
The black cheetah and the wooden tiger looked at each other in the air, their dark eyes glowing with a cold, seeping cold light, the body of the beast more than two meters long was slightly raised, and the two sharp front claws were pressed on the ground, ready to go.
At this moment, the scorching sun in the east had climbed the horizon, and the dazzling golden light swept into every corner of the small courtyard like a tide.
Under the reflection of the sunlight, the hair on the black cheetah's body appeared even more jet black and shiny, and faintly, the wooden tiger saw a black dark light flowing back and forth from the neck of the former.
"This must also be a spirit beast!"
Mu Hu exclaimed in his heart.
There are also many legends about "spirit animals" in the ethereal town.
Spirit beasts, as the name suggests, are psychic and knowledgeable, and can have their own conscious judgments, and are no longer as ignorant and ignorant as ordinary fierce beasts.
Roar!
When one man and one beast were deadlocked, the tiger cub on the side suddenly let out a low roar, the voice was very low, but it was extremely clear into the ears of the wooden tiger and the black cheetah.
The moment Mu Hu sought prestige, the latter had already picked up the infant "Xuanfeng", and the four snow-white tiger claws slammed into his feet.
Roar ......
The tiger cub gently placed Xuanfeng on the ground, whining in his mouth.
He raised the tiger's head, and there was a hint of anxiety in the black and shining tiger eyes, and it raised its right paw to point at Xuanfeng, and then quickly retreated to the black cheetah.
At the same time, the black cheetah also put away its sharp claws, turned around and walked to a haystack in the southeast corner of the small courtyard.
"This kid is alive!"
Mu Hu squatted down, picked up Xuan Feng on the ground with both hands, and looked at the latter's pink little face, he was excited.
At this moment, a fresh breeze floated in the small courtyard, swaying lightly, and waving up bursts of dust.
"Huh, where does the smell of milk come from?"
Mu Hu looked surprised, and he smelled a milky fragrance with a hint of sweetness in the air around him.
Babbling babbling......
Xuan Feng woke up in swaddling clothes, a pair of small black eyes blinking back and forth, bright as a cold star above the nine heavens, he stretched out a pair of tender white hands, a trace of dried milk stains hung on the corners of his mouth, and his mouth was babbling.
The morning sun is particularly dazzling, and golden glows sway into every corner of the world from high in the sky.
Suddenly, a ray of sunlight pierced through the void and refracted on the pinhole-sized "black mole" in the palm of Xuan Feng's right hand.
"This ...... It's a black mole!"
Mu Hu's gaze was immediately attracted by the black mole in Xuan Feng's palm.
Before that, he personally removed the blue-gray silk silk from the palm of Xuan Feng's right hand.
At that time, the image manifested in the latter's palm was not a black mole, but a rugged and sinuous pattern that resembled some kind of ferocious beast.
"Hand holding a black mole! This kid actually holds a black mole like the imperial prince who has been in the same hands for more than a hundred years!"
Mu Hu was shocked.
More than 100 years ago, Jin Feng, the prince of the Shenlong Empire, was also born with a black mole in his hand, and it is said that when he was born, there was a golden dragon floating in the sky and above the imperial capital.
The prince Jin Feng was also favored by all parties because of this.
However, the ancestral motto of the royal family of the Shenlong Empire clearly stipulates that the next monarch of the empire must be succeeded by the eldest son.
After the death of the old emperor, the prince Jin Feng was dissatisfied with his brother's accession to the throne, and brazenly launched a coup d'Γ©tat.
A few years later, the prince Jin Feng was killed by an unknown immortal on the Jinluan Palace.
Since then, the Shenlong Empire has been restored to stability, and the black mole in the hands of the prince Jin Feng is also regarded as the embodiment of "demons and evil spirits".
"This must not be spread out!"
Mu Hu thought to himself.
At this moment, he finally understood why the Red Leaf Village was wiped out, and why Xuan Feng's right hand had been wrapped in blue-gray silk silk.
Looking at the dried milk stain at the corner of Xuanfeng's mouth, Mu Hu also understood why there was a faint smell of milk in the air around him.
He looked up at the haystack in the southeast corner of the courtyard, where the black cheetah was lying lazily, and under the reflection of the sun, a row of black ** under the latter came into view.
Obviously, Xuan Feng must have eaten animal milk to survive so far.
"Why does this spirit beast feed Xuanfeng?"
Mu Hu was puzzled in his heart, but he still didn't dare to step forward easily, hugged Xuan Feng, turned around and returned to the wooden house.
This ordinary courtyard is the only residence of Muhu in the ethereal town.
Although the portraits of the three brothers have been plastered all over the streets, every family in the ethereal town has turned a blind eye to them.
Most of the villagers in the town are ordinary civilians who can't read a single word, working with the rising sun every day and falling asleep with the sunset.
Compared to the outside world of flowers, this place is more like a paradise that does not know the world.
There are three wooden houses in the courtyard where Muhu is located, one wooden house is due east, one is due west, and one is due north, and due south is the direction where the courtyard gate is located.
Originally, the three brothers each occupied a wooden house, but now only Mu Hu was left.
Inside a wooden house directly north of the courtyard.
Mu Hu washed Xuan Feng's body with clean water, and then used some new cotton cloth to make a new swaddling cloth for Xuan Feng.
"This blue-gray silk must be a relic left by Xiao Yu'er to Xuan Feng. β
Mu Hu sat on the edge of the bed, he looked down at the blue-gray silk silk in his hand, and thought to himself.
For more than ten years, the three brothers have helped some poor families in Hongye Village many times, and they have also ...... with Xuanchun and Xuanhu and others are very familiar.
Three years ago, when Xuan Chun married his wife, he really envied the other villagers in Momiji Village.
Xiao Yuer's face is like a silver plate, her skin is better than snow, and her beautiful eyes are like a pool of clear water.
Such a gorgeous and peerless appearance, which captivates the country and the city, makes people feel ashamed of themselves, and dare not have a blasphemous heart.
When Mu Hu saw Xiao Yu'er for the first time, he was immediately shocked, and he still had Xiao Yu'er's cold, arrogant, smart, elegant and vulgar appearance lingering in his mind.
His master had told him about the prosperous world outside, and when he first saw Xiao Yu'er, he knew that the latter was definitely not a person!
The world is unpredictable, and providence makes people!
The entire village of Hongye Village was almost slaughtered, leaving behind three old men and one infant child.
Such a result can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune.
"Brother Xuanchun, if you and Xiao Yu'er have spirits in the sky, please bless your children to grow up safely and ......."
Mu Hu glanced at Xuan Feng, who was sleeping soundly in the bed, and sighed secretly.
Then, he gently raised Xuan Feng's right hand and carefully wrapped the blue-gray silk silk around the black mole.
Airplanes!
The moment Mu Hu withdrew his hands, a strange scene appeared.
The void roared softly, and a faint golden brilliance appeared in the palm of Xuan Feng's right hand, and the golden light flashed, and the blue-gray silk silk and the tiny black mole disappeared in an instant.
"This kid ......".
Mu Hu looked stunned at first, and then couldn't help but feel a touch of bitterness in his heart, he knew in his heart: Xuan Feng is destined to be an extraordinary person!
The anecdotes of the past few days have made Mu Hu once again see the extraordinary of this world, but he has always been just a small body refining realm martial artist.
Mu Hu didn't dare to let the news of Xuan Feng spread, and in order to hide people's eyes, he secretly made an astonishing decision - to marry a wife!
As long as he has a family, Xuan Feng can naturally live in an ethereal town.
Wang Po is nowhere to be found, Mu Qi and Mu Yu have escaped, and now those who know that Xuanfeng is still in the world are left with only two old men in the armor.
After returning to the ethereal town the day before yesterday, Mu Hu settled them in the house of their distant relatives here.
"Let's go visit the two old men first. β
At this moment, Xuan Feng had already fallen asleep soundly on the bed, and taking advantage of this gap, Mu Hu decided to persuade the two old men he had brought back from Red Leaf Village first.
Stomp ......
Muhu closed the courtyard door and strode towards a certain alley in the town.
He didn't know that the moment he walked out of the courtyard gate, the black cheetah and tiger cub lying prone in the southeast corner of the courtyard all got up and stood up in an instant, and then swaggered into the wooden house where Xuan Feng was.
As the sun rises in the east, the clouds in the sky are beautifully reflected in the magnificent glow.
However, under the bright sunshine of the wind and sunshine, the two families in the ethereal town were gloomy.
"Brother Muhu, Uncle Shen has been grief-stricken for the past few days, and he passed away yesterday evening. β
"Little Huzi, you're late! Brother Xuanli has been immersed in great sorrow since he came out of Red Leaf Village, he can't eat, he can't sleep day and night, and at dawn this morning, he is already dead!"
Mu Hu hurried to the house of their respective distant relatives where the two old men were located, but he was greeted by two bad news.
Heaven and earth will eventually have a period, and manpower will sometimes run out.
Mu Hu is also an open-minded person, although he is sentimental, he can't continue to stay there to mourn the two old men.
After he walked out of one of the alleys, he hurried towards his small courtyard.
"Morning, Uncle Tiger!"
A little girl in a sackcloth shirt ran out of the small courtyard on one side, with a bright smile on his face, waving and shouting at the wooden tiger.
Hearing this, a smile appeared on Mu Hu's face, he stopped in place, and the tiger quietly glanced at the courtyard where the little girl was, and said.
"Yue'er, do you want to live with your uncle?"
"This ......".
The little girl looked a little hesitant, she knew the deep meaning of Mu Hu's sentence.
