Chapter 60: Misses
?? You can't escape, you can't escape.
Xu Laoying, who was reluctant, was led to Zhen's mansion by Zhen Pan, and he had already made up his mind in his heart.
If that woman threatens with the Void Phoenix, she will recall the Excalibur and leave, and she must not have the slightest entanglement with that woman.
Thinking like this in his heart, he came to the courtyard of Zhen's mansion in a blink of an eye, Zhen Pan stopped outside the backyard, and smiled at Xu Laoying: "The villain will send the son here." ”
After that, he said to the pretty maid who had been waiting inside for a long time: "Miss Dongmei, the little one has brought the son." ”
"See. ”
The maid known as Dongmei glanced at Zhen Pan with disgust and said, "Since you have brought the son back, the matter of bidding has been revealed, but there is one, and there will be a next time, be careful of this fat body." ”
"Zhen Pan knows, Zhen Pan knows, thank you for your magnanimity, thank you for your kindness. ”
The fat steward thanked him and retreated, not daring to look at the inner courtyard again.
After driving away Zhen Pan, the maid changed her face again, bowed to Xu Laoying, and said softly: "Madame is inside, please come with Dongmei." ”
Although the maid was thoughtful and soft, Xu Laoying could feel the jealousy and disgust in the other party's heart.
This feeling is too familiar, and several women who have had a dewy marriage with him have brought their parents and elders to test because Xiao wants more.
Every now and then, he could feel this disgust, but he didn't expect to feel it in a maid today.
While laughing and laughing, Xu Laoying was also a little aggrieved, this time it was not that he coveted Mrs. Zhen's beauty, but that the other party relied on himself!
But how can these emotions be vented with his subordinates, and after Xu Laoying, who had a helpless expression, returned the salute, he was led into the inner courtyard by the maid.
The faint sandalwood that permeates the inner courtyard represents a certain level of taste, and the legend of the past can also tell that this woman has experienced a lot of wind and rain.
But why did he get dizzy on himself, Xu Laoying looked at the black gauze woman who stepped forward quickly with a sword when he saw him, and stretched out his palm: "Don't come here again!"
The woman froze in place, the mist filled her eyes, her hands clutched the golden scabbard, and she was at a loss: "Concubine body.. The concubine just saw that the day on the ticket was coming, so she thought about redeeming the sword for her son. ”
Zhen Bei'er explained while stretching out her hands vigorously, as if she wanted to hand the sword to Xu Laoying without moving her feet.
But the two were separated by a few feet, and even if the woman had tried her best to lean her upper body forward, it only made her look more pitiful.
Idiot...
Xu Laoying sighed slightly in his heart, stretched out his hand, and the golden Imperial Void Phoenix Divine Sword flew back from Zhen Bei'er's hand.
"Thank you Madame for your kindness, since the sword has been received, Lao Ying will take his leave. ”
Xu Laoying, who took back the divine sword, took out a gold bag from his arms, which contained the reward of the Tiannan thief, the amount was much higher than the amount of the redemption sword.
Before coming, he had already expected to count the exact amount and hand it over to Zhen Bottler to show his determination not to delay or owe.
But at this time, facing the woman's misty eyes, he just wanted to escape from the inner courtyard as soon as possible, so he threw the gold bag at the woman, and pretended to turn around in a chic manner.
"Childe wait!"
Zhen Bei'er, who caught the gold bag, called Xu Laoying.
"What else?"
Without even replying, Xu Laoying turned his back to the woman and said impatiently.
“...... It doesn't take that much to redeem the sword. ”
"More is hard-earned money. ”
"Wait!"
Seeing that Xu Laoying was about to step out of the threshold, Zhen Bei'er said anxiously.
Xu's swordsman still stopped, but he didn't look back, he didn't make a sound, he was as cold as a piece of ice.
"After Childe left that day, Kaba was in charge of the living creatures, but when he passed through Danmu Mountain, he encountered bandits, and the goods were robbed, and no one was killed. ”
Xu Laoying finally turned his head, he always felt as if something was missing these days, and then he remembered that he had forgotten about the black guy Kaba!
In his opinion, the group of bandits in Danmu Mountain are all local chickens and dogs, so they don't care at all, but this is the cognition of the Yuanzhou Xu family, who walks in the world, not the ability of the young man in Danmu Town to barely eat a meal.
"How's Kaba!?"
Xu Laoying, who turned around, was shocked and angry in his eyes, and asked the woman.
"As a caravan guard, Kaba did his duty, but there were many bandits, so he was the most seriously injured, but fortunately, he was sent to the hospital immediately, so he had no worries about his life. ”
Zhen Bei'er said softly: "Right now, Kaba is recuperating in the Zhen family's medicine house, and the son can visit him at any time." ”
The Xu swordsman has clear grievances, and Xu Laoying is even more of a love-hate character.
Kaba was a friend he made in Danmu Town, and this escort was also arranged by the other party knowing that he was short of money.
But because he left halfway, he actually caused his friend to be injured by bandits, Xu Laoying was full of self-blame, and at the same time he was a little grateful to Zhen Bei'er.
They are wandering guards recruited by the Zhen family, and they are doing a business of both money and goods, and licking blood from the knife.
The owner paid the money, and if the escort was seriously injured and killed by the bandits, it was all a person who could not do it, and no one had to do it.
Especially in the case of the Zhen family's loss of goods and heavy losses, even if they left Kaba in the wilderness to fend for themselves, others couldn't say anything.
But the other party still rescued the person, and even sent it to the medicine house for treatment, although Zhen Bei'er's tone was calm, but this kind of dying and serious injury wanted to hang his life, and the herbs needed would definitely exceed their task bounty.
Although Xu Laoying really didn't want to have anything to do with Zhen Bei'er anymore, he couldn't pretend to be deaf and dumb on the point that the other party saved Kaba.
"The robbery of the Zhen family's caravan this time is all my fault, thank you Madame for being willing to treat Kaba, I will be responsible for the loss of the caravan and the loss of medicinal herbs." ”
Zhen Bei'er looked at Xu Laoying's businesslike expression, couldn't bear the disappointment in her heart, and said goodbye: "Kaba fought for the Zhen family's caravan, and was seriously injured and dying." Salvation is also the way it should be..."
The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she became, Zhen Bottler turned her head fiercely and shed a string of crystal tears: "Does Childe think Bottle'er will say this!?"
Xu Laoying, who had already wanted to praise Zhen Bei'er for a few words, was interrupted by this sudden turn of words.
"Don't you really understand why Bottle'er didn't hold him accountable for the failure of the mission, but instead rescued Kaba!"
“......”
Xu Laoying's mouth moved, he didn't know how to answer, and he didn't dare to look at the woman, because the gaze was too hot.
"Bottle... The bottle does this, not because I want my son to read it well, but because I want to... I just ask Childe not to leave like last time. ”
Seeing that the man was embarrassed, Zhen Bottle'er's tone softened for a moment, and he pleaded with the man in front of him: "If the son doesn't want to see the bottle, the bottle will stay at home, and will never come to disturb the son, the bottle swears!"
The woman wept and raised three points to the sky, and the oath was nothing more than to say.
I don't want you to leave Danki, even if you hate me, as long as you're willing to stay here.
In front of the truth, Xu Laoying's heart was also messed up, he didn't know if he should agree, so he turned around and left.
It's just that the six senses of the Immortal Sword Body are too sharp, so even if he flies away, he can hear the cry in the inner courtyard of the Zhen Mansion, which makes people... I'm bored.
......
Zhenfu Pharmacy
Zhen Bottler arranged the best ward for Kaba, and he occupied a place next to the medicine house by himself.
Every day, a healer came to visit and change the dressing, and the food was brought by Kaba's wife every day.
"When the convoy came to the Nanshan Stream, your man sensed the murderous aura in the grass, so he hurriedly shouted to stop the team, then drew his long sword and slashed out a sword qi to cut through the grass on the side of the road. ”
"Where have the bandits on the Danmu Mountain seen such a gorgeous sword qi, and the big thief led by him was frightened, and his legs trembled when he jumped out. ”
"Your man stood on his horse in front of him and shouted at them, 'I am the No. 1 Sword God on Tainan Street in Danmu Town, where did the rats come from, and they dared to rob the caravan escorted by Grandpa!'"
"Hey, when those bandits heard your man's name, they were so frightened that they all retreated, and the people behind almost fell to the bottom of the cliff..."
When Xu Laoying came to the Zhen Family Medicine House, he heard Kaba in the side compartment talking about his heroic battle on Danmu Mountain.
Some skinny women are smiling and echoing their husbands while cleaning up the rice and dishes on the table, and they look like heroes returning triumphantly.
It's just that in this beauty, what Xu Laoying felt was the woman's boundless panic and despair for the future.
There is also a dance of eyebrows that tells the story of heroism, and the confusion and sadness in the hearts of men.
This made Xu Laoying, who had already walked to the door of the wing, suddenly not know how to face the mismatch scene that was happening in the wing, so he froze outside the door.
In the wing, the woman who had already packed up the dishes and put them in the vegetable basket smiled at Kaba and said, "The man I picked is amazing!"
"Well, there's more to come. ”
"Then save the more exciting ones for the evening. ”
The woman stepped forward and kissed the man's forehead lightly and said, "I'll come to see you in the evening." ”
"Don't work so hard, come back tomorrow. ”
"See you in the evening. ”
The woman packed up the basket and hurried away, for she had to rush back to the cloth mill before the owner returned.
And after his wife walked out of the room, Kaba, who had just been alive, suddenly seemed to have unloaded all his strength, his eyebrows and eyes were lowered, and his shoulders were shrugged.
Turning his head to look over his right shoulder, Kaba slumped heavily on the bed, tears sliding down the corners of his eyes, snot pouring down his throat with staccato whimpering.
"This doesn't look like the style of the No. 1 Sword God on Tainan Street, why are you crying like a little daughter-in-law. ”
Xu Lao Ying entered the house and saw Kaba lying on the bed with his left hand covered on his face and whimpering, and joked with a smile.
Kaba, who was startled by Xu Laoying's voice, wiped away the tears on his face, turned over and sat up and looked to the right, and saw Xu Laoying with a somewhat stiff smile.
"Old Win... Brother!"
Kaba still called out this title, and then said with a smile: "Fortunately, you left at that time, otherwise it would be bad to meet that group of earth-turning people, or you are lucky!"
"You're not bad, aren't you, the thieves didn't kill you?"
Xu Laoying's tone was exaggerated and echoed Kaba, but he secretly remembered this bandit called the world.
"Hey, how else to say that Uncle Kaba is blessed with a great life!"
The dark-skinned Kaba grinned, patted his right shoulder with his left hand and said, "It's just that I lost an arm." The title of the No. 1 Sword God on Tainan Street, I'm afraid I can only give it to Dorene as a bastard!"
"What, if you lose your arm, you don't want to practice martial arts?"
Xu Laoying smiled and said: "Didn't you say at that time that you would cultivate to the fierce realm, and then set up a big family business in Danmu Town, so that everyone would know the name of Uncle Kaba." ”
"That was before..."
Kaba touched his right shoulder with a gloomy expression and said, "I can't practice swords." ”
"Hey, what a big deal for me. ”
Xu Laoying smiled and stretched out his left hand to dance: "The way of swordsmanship is broad and profound, not only the forehand sword, but also the backhand sword, if you cultivate well, you are not weaker than others." ”
“... Forget it. ”
Kaba's eyes lit up at first, and then dimmed: "Even if you cultivate a backhand sword, who would hire a crippled street swordsman......
"Don't be in a hurry to refuse!"
Xu Laoying said with a smile: "When your wound is healed, I will show you the power of this backhand sword, and then you will decide whether you want to practice or not." ”
"Brother Lao Win..."
"Don't say anything. ”
Xu Laoying waved his hand and said, "You can recuperate with peace of mind first, and leave the rest to me." ”
......
Three days later, Kaba's knife wound healed, and Xu Laoying grabbed him and flew into the sky.
"Wow~~~"
Kaba, who was in the sky for the first time, was so frightened that he trembled all over, and it took a long time to calm down, and he grabbed Xu Laoying's wrist with one hand and asked, "Old.. Old.. Brother Win, where are we going?"
"Go to Danmu Mountain, find the bastard who cut off your arm, and besides, give you... Hey, hey, don't move, what if you fall!"
"Go back, I don't need you to avenge me!"
After struggling for a long time and finding that Xu Laoying's wrist was still not moving, Kaba roared: "Do you know who is the person who led the Heaven Turning Thief, that is Meng Target, the brother of the legendary Tiannan thief!"
"This kind of stupid thief who even has to be called by other people's names doesn't sound like any real kung fu. ”
Xu Laoying said helplessly: "You just believe me, I promise that there is no problem!"
"your promises, let go, let go!"
Kaba struggled frantically and shouted.
"It's hundreds of feet in the air here, I'll let you go!"
Xu Laoying was speechless and said: "It's all here, follow and see..."
"Look at the fart, my mother-in-law is still waiting for me at home, Uncle Kaba don't die with you, a whore, let go!"
Kaba, who struggled again to no avail, was in a hurry and bit on Xu Laoying's palm.
"Click!"
I tried my best to bite it, but Kaba's gums were shaken.
"Shhhhh
Xu Laoying gasped, but it was not because of pain.
"Brother Kaba, don't break your teeth..."
The black guy who ate the lesson in the first bite wanted to cry without tears, and he didn't know whether to use it or not.
Forcefully, this thing's hands seem to be harder than iron.
If you don't use your strength, you can't show your determination to die with him.
After thinking about it, the black guy still decided not to let go, although the bite did not hurt the other party, it was still important to express his attitude!
Xu Lao Ying saw that Kaba didn't continue to exert force, so he let the other party maintain this strange posture, and then went all the way to the south of Danmu Mountain.
