"Are you going to die like this?" asked Ah Zheng. Shu Yu Shirt

The man sighed and said, "The people who live here are all descendants of the people who managed the treasury in the first place, and although they are ghosts, they hardly know any martial arts. Later, when the country collapsed, the ancestors escaped from the secret passage prepared in advance and settled here. At that time, the ancestors thought that when the country perished, the ghosts would naturally cease to exist, and we could live in seclusion with peace of mind, but unfortunately, this terrible poison has been passed down from generation to generation. ”

"However, if the ghost wants to return to the country, why did he wait so many years to make a move? Chu Yangcheng was puzzled.

The man shook his head and said, "Because, what the ghost wants has never been a country. Our ancestors did not have a high status among the ghosts, and although I was the next village chief, I didn't know much about these things. The ghost has been looking for something, and it is said that if you get that thing, you can control the world!"

Chu Yangcheng and Ah Zheng glanced at each other, and asked in unison, "What is it?"

The man shook his head and said, "I don't know about this, but it is said that the reason why the emperor was tyrannical was to find that thing, but it is impossible for a small character like us to know this." ”

Ah Zheng frowned slightly, put aside this question, and said, "What do you mean, it should be when your entire village is poisoned now, do you know how many people are still alive now?"

The man shook his head and said: "I, as the future village chief, have learned some kung fu, so my resistance to toxicity is better than others, but Xiaoyu is for some reason, until now, the phenomenon of poison is not obvious." As for the others, as of yesterday, only our father and son were alive in the village, Xiaowen was no longer able to survive this morning, and I shouldn't be able to last long!"

"Can I go in and see Xiaowen?" Ah Zheng asked, he didn't expect such a tragic situation, there were only two living people in the whole village.

The man didn't hold out much hope, but just led Ah Zheng and Chu Yangcheng into the house. The two looked at the simple room, and Xiaoyu, who came in earlier, was hugging his younger brother and humming a simple nursery rhyme to him, as if to lull him to sleep. When he saw them enter the house, he whispered, "My brother is asleep, you guys are lighter!"

When the man heard Xiaoyu's words, he closed his eyes slightly, as if he understood something. Ah Zheng stepped forward and put his fingers on the child's carotid artery, and sure enough, the little child was dead.

The three of them silently exited the room, Ah Zheng stretched out his hand to the man, and the man also cooperated to let Ah Zheng take the pulse, and after a long time, Ah Zheng said: "Your poison is too deep, I can't save you." But the small fish still has a glimmer of life. ”

"Can you save Xiaoyu?" the man looked surprised, perhaps he had already faced too many cruel deaths, even if it was just a glimmer of life, it was precious to him.

Ah Zheng nodded and said, "When we came out, we didn't bring silver needles and medicinal herbs, so now I can't do anything." If you can trust me, I will take Xiaoyu back, even if I can't, my mother should be able to save Xiaoyu's life. ”

The man breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I believe in you. Besides, there are only two of us left in the village now, if Xiaoyu has any hope of being cured, you can take Xiaoyu away! In the future, don't let her come back, all the relatives have died here, for Xiaoyu, this can only be a sad place. In the future, let her follow you, even if it is to be a maid, to give her a way to live. ”

Ah Zheng was a little surprised that this person actually handed over his daughter to them with just a few words, but thinking about it, this village has become a dead man's village, and they are relieved of what they can get from a little girl.

The man looked at the sky, and there was still nearly an hour before it was dark, so he called Xiaoyu out, explained some things to her, and asked her to pack some dry food and leave with Ah Zheng and Chu Yangcheng.

The girl had just lost her younger brother and was reluctant to leave, but she didn't dare to disobey her father's words, so she had to nod her head and agree, and followed Ah Zheng and Chu Yangcheng to leave step by step.

Chu Yangcheng took pity on Xiaoyu, and was extricating her all the way, and Ah Zheng was discerning the direction while walking, although he didn't know where they were now, but since these people had lived in seclusion for so long, they had never interacted with anyone, which showed that this place was remote enough. Look at Chu Yangcheng who looks like he is following him, he has now discovered that as long as this person is with him, he will never care about finding a direction and a way out, although from the bottom of his heart, Ah Zheng likes Chu Yangcheng very much and will rely on himself.

Perhaps God also thought that Ah Zheng and Chu Yangcheng had been too unlucky in the past two days, and the two of them took the small fish over a mountain, and met a hunter in the mountain. Ah Zheng saved the hunter under the claws of the wolf, and the man thanked Ah Zheng for saving his life, so he took the three of them to the wooden house where the hunter lived while hunting for a temporary night's rest. Because it was getting late at this time, it was likely to encounter the danger of wild beasts or traps if you hurried down the mountain overnight. Ah Zheng and Chu Yangcheng naturally understood this, and besides, they were already extremely tired, so they didn't shirk and followed the young hunter to the wooden house.

At this time, it is the busy season of farming, and there is only this young man who goes into the mountains to hunt, Ah Zheng can't help but ask him curiously why he is not farming at home, but going up to the mountains to hunt, after all, although hunting earns a lot of money, the income is unstable, and farming is related to the harvest of a year.

When the young man heard Ah Zheng's question, a trace of anxiety appeared on his face, and he said, "I didn't come up the mountain for the prey, I came up the mountain just to find the snake gall." ”

"What are you looking for snake gall for now?" asked Chu Yangcheng.

"My father was sick and needed fresh snake gall for medicine. My father's illness couldn't be delayed, so I had to put down my work in the fields and go to the mountains to fight snakes. Unfortunately, I went up the mountain for three days. There are a lot of other prey, but not a snake. The boy led the three into the humble wooden house.

Chu Yangcheng didn't know much about hunting in the mountains and forests, so he looked at Ah Zheng and said in his heart, isn't this season the season for insects and snakes?

Ah Zheng followed the young man into the house, sat down, and explained: "Generally speaking, people are afraid of snakes, but on the contrary, snakes are also afraid of people, so under normal circumstances, snakes and beasts will not appear in front of people casually. ”

"Really, then how can we find the snake?" Chu Yangcheng looked at Ah Zheng curiously.

Ah Zheng tilted his head and thought for a while, and said: "I don't know, when Daddy was young, he didn't like to fight snakes at all, just snake gall can be sold, and nothing else is of much use, and it is poisonous and mucus, except for accidentally encountering it, Daddy will not deliberately look for the bad luck of those cold-blooded animals." ”

"Ah, that's it!" Chu Yangcheng obviously showed a disappointed expression, and said, "I thought you could do anything!"

Ah Zheng twitched the corners of his mouth, he can do anything, if he really knows everything, is he still a person? Shaking his head, he said, "Don't you also know the mechanism formation? What's so strange that I don't understand this?"

Chu Yangcheng smiled, it seems to be right, if Ah Zheng really knows everything, it will be too shocking. However, she still wants to help this teenager, she has lived in a complex family since she was a child, and has grown up in battles with all kinds of people since she was a child, but in her heart, she is eager for family affection. Like, from the very beginning, she envied Ah Zheng, not his noble status, nor the power of King An's mansion, she only longed for the relationship between Prince An and the princess, and longed for the princess's love for Ah Zheng and Jinnian. Although An Wangfu is a real wealthy family in the capital, this kind of warmth is something that a family like her never dares to ask for. And this teenager, she hopes that he can get his wish, at least, he can keep that warm home.

At night, everyone else slept, and Chu Yangcheng walked out of the wooden house lightly, as if he was looking for something outside. Ah Zheng, who was following her, frowned slightly, and followed her closely with no peace of mind. It didn't take long for Chu Yangcheng to find all the things she wanted, sat down on a stone, and said, "Xu Zheng, I know you follow me, come and sit!"

Ah Zheng turned out from behind a tree, touched his nose, sat down beside Chu Yangcheng, pointed to some flowers and plants that Chu Yangcheng had placed on the stone, and said, "What are you looking for these?"

Chu Yangcheng rested his head on Ah Zheng's shoulder with peace of mind, and said, "Isn't that kid looking for a snake?" I'll add some spices to help him attract the snake." ”

Ah Zheng took Chu Yangcheng into his arms and said, "Since you want to help him, I'll catch a snake for him, I still don't believe that I can't find a snake all over the mountain." You ran out in the middle of the night, and the place is unfamiliar, what if you get hurt?"

When Chu Yangcheng heard Ah Zheng say this, his heart was warm, and he smiled: "Don't you want to know, why should I help him? Aren't you afraid that I will change my mind and like him?"

Ah Zheng lowered his head, kissed Chu Yangcheng's lips involuntarily, and let go of her for a long time, saying, "Don't say such things in the future! You can only like me only in this life!"

Chu Yangcheng gasped, glared at Ah Zheng, turned his head away, and didn't look at Ah Zheng.

Ah Zheng sighed and said, "Okay, don't be angry." I know, you just want a warm home. You can rest assured, as long as I live, I will try to give you a warm home. Yang Cheng, you know, my heart for you, I promise you, I won't have a side concubine, let alone any messy aunt, you marry me, you are my only wife, if you don't want to, I will die alone in this life, okay?"

"What are you kidding! You are the prince of King An, how can you not have a side concubine or a concubine?" Chu Yangcheng said sullenly.

When Ah Zheng heard Chu Yangcheng say this, he straightened her face, turned to himself, and said seriously: "I'm serious, I don't want to listen to any nonsense! I'm a dignified general in the northwest, I still don't believe that anyone can force me! What's more, my father doesn't have only one mother, even my uncle, and only two wives, and he is still the emperor!"
