"At that time, Qiushui descended like a god, and with a sword, he locked the retreat of Inno's boy. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info I saw a thousand golden lights burst out from his body, illuminating the entire Wuguniang Mountain......"

A middle-aged man with curly hair like a bird's nest said emotionally as he nibbled on a piece of meat in his hand. Spit flew for a while, and the few clansmen who had been left behind in the village and failed to witness this competition were stunned, and the man's face showed a look of pride, as if he was the one who defeated Ino.

"Don't listen to curly, he likes to talk nonsense and make all this nonsense. Another man walked over, sat down beside Curly, and said in a sarcastic tone.

The curly-haired face suddenly showed displeasure, and turned around and scolded: "You buckteeth, don't be nosy." On closer inspection, the man really had two front teeth that bulged high, and he looked inexplicably happy.

"But then again, that Qiushui is indeed very capable, when the Thunder Patriarch took people away, his face was greener than the moss on the stone. Bucktooth didn't mind, just smiled happily.

"But isn't it, if this kid had appeared earlier, we wouldn't have lost so badly for several years in a row, although Brother Wushan is one of the best in the clan, but ......" Curly was saying, suddenly seeing the people around him squeezing their eyebrows and pointing behind him. He turned his head suspiciously, and saw that Wu Shan had come to his side at some point, looking at him with a smile on his face.

"Wu, Brother Wushan, I ......" Curly hurriedly stood up, and just wanted to explain, he was interrupted by Wushan.

"You're right, I'm still a lot behind, but I'm going to keep working hard and try not to lose so badly in the future. Wushan smiled and patted Curly Fur's back, then turned and left, leaving Curly Fur stunned in place, unable to say a word.

Due to the early end of today's Menglan Festival, a lot of food was left, so in order not to cause waste, another banquet was held in the Tagan tribe. I saw that a jar of wine was quickly bottomed out, and the clansmen gathered around the campfire, put their arms on each other's shoulders, and danced and sang ancient songs. At this moment of celebration of the whole family, there was a man sitting alone on the snow at the entrance of the village, looking up at the starry sky.

"It's beautiful. A voice suddenly came from behind, Xiao Di turned around, and found Qiu Shui holding a rabbit leg in his hand, looking at him with a smile. Seeing Xiao Di's stunned expression, Qiushui explained: "I mean, the sky here is beautiful. ”

"Brother Qiushui, what are you doing here?" asked Xiao Di suspiciously.

"I should ask this, don't you play with other children, sit here by yourself, and you are not afraid of being taken away by wolves?" Qiushui asked rhetorically. Xiao Di thought for a moment, then shook his head and replied solemnly, "Don't be afraid." ”

"Then you don't mind if I sit with you for a while? With that, Qiushui handed the rabbit leg in his hand to Xiao Di. Xiao Di hesitated for a moment, then took the rabbit leg, leaned in and smelled it, and said with a smile: "It's so fragrant!"

"The moon is so big and round today, and it's going to be a full moon soon. Qiushui raised his head, only to see that there was no cloud, and the bright moonlight sprinkled on the ground, revealing a piece of white. At this time, he found that Xiao Di beside him lowered his head, tears flickered faintly in the corners of his eyes, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong, did I say something wrong?"

Xiao Di wiped the corners of his eyes with his hand, and then whispered, "No, I just remembered Brother Shi." ”

"Brother Shi?" Qiushui thought about it, and didn't seem to have any impression in his mind. Seeing Qiushui's puzzled expression, Xiao Di explained: "Brother Shi is a good partner who grew up with me, we used to play together a lot, every time someone bullied me, he would stand up and be my protector!"

Seeing Xiao Di's serious appearance, Qiushui snorted and laughed, but then coughed dryly and asked again: "What about now, it seems that I haven't seen you play with him." ”

Xiao Di fell silent for a moment, and buried his head deep between his legs. Qiushui stretched out his hand, gently touched Xiaodi's head, and said in a comforting tone: "Xiaodi has something in his heart, if you want to find someone to talk to, you can tell Brother Qiushui." ”

Xiao Di raised his head, his originally cute big eyes were now red: "Two years ago, it was also a full moon night, and a powerful snow demon suddenly came to the village and captured Brother Shi. I haven't seen him since. ”

Qiushui was stunned, he had never heard of such a thing as a snow demon on this ice field. However, seeing Xiao Di's serious face, he couldn't question it, so he could only pat his chest and say to Xiao Di with a smile: "Don't worry, as long as Brother Qiushui is here, even if the snow demon comes, he can't take Xiao Di away." Since Brother Shi is not here, let Brother Qiushui be your protector. ”

"Really?" Xiao Di blinked, saw Qiushui nodded affirmatively, immediately burst into tears and laughed, raised the rabbit leg in his hand and gnawed.

"It's so fragrant, give me a bite?"

"Don't!" a playful laugh sounded, and in this quiet night, it warmed the whole ice and snow winter.

The next day, the Tagans returned to their old hustle and bustle. Autumn water walks through the village, shaking its head and looking around from time to time. Now that he has been exonerated from responsibility, no one cares about him wherever he goes, but the Holy Snow Lotus has not yet arrived, so it is obvious that he can't just go back empty-handed. In fact, he also thought about whether to go to Wuguniang Mountain to see if he could pick some more holy snow lotus. However, after discussing with Xiaodi, he dispelled this idea.

"The Holy Snow Lotus here, it only blooms once a year!"

As he walked, Qiushui came to a circular building in the middle of the village. It is a two-storey building made of ice bricks, which is crystal clear throughout, and is very different from the surrounding houses. Qiushui had already inquired about it, this is the sacrificial hall of the Tagan clan, and it is also the place where the patriarch usually lives, and the holy snow lotus that he was taken away is very likely to be enshrined here.

After making up his mind, Akisui whistled and pretended to be careless and walked towards the worship hall. The door of the shrine in front of me was hidden, and it seemed that there was no one guarding inside, so it was a good time to do it yourself. Just when he was less than five meters away from the sacrificial hall, two strong men with big knives at their waists suddenly appeared in front of him, and reached out to stop him.

"I'm sorry, this is a sacred place in the clan, and without the order of the patriarch, no idle people are allowed to enter. ”

Qiu Shui snorted coldly, and slowly raised his hand to his waist. The two strong men also realized Qiushui's move, clenched their broadswords, and showed a vigilant look on their faces. At this time, Wushan happened to pass by, and saw that there was something unusual here, so he stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just walked around, and I was stopped here. Before the strong man could answer, Qiushui said with a smile.

"I see, I can't even enter here without the permission of the patriarch, I'm really embarrassed. ”

"It's okay, then I'll go look elsewhere. Qiushui waved his hand, raised his head, turned around and was just about to leave here, when he suddenly saw a small hillside in the distance, there seemed to be a hut, hidden in the mist.
