Chapter 24: Mu Ting's Shadow
When Xihe rushed into the house, he almost bumped into a demon soldier who came out of the house, and the person in front of the demon soldier was Xihe, and he hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted.
"Brother Xi!"
Xi He's face was full of anxiety, even when the other party greeted him, Xi He didn't respond, but his eyes kept looking anxiously at the room in the house, if it wasn't for this demon soldier blocking the way in front of the door, otherwise Xi He would have rushed in by now.
As soon as Xi He grabbed the demon soldier, he pulled it out, and said while pulling his mouth:
"Brother, you wait for me outside for a while, I'll come when I go in, and then I still have some things to ask my brother." ”
The demon soldier was stunned by Xihe's actions at first, but then he heard the words behind him and laughed:
"Brother Xi is polite, Brother Xi can ask me about something, it's my honor to be a brother, as long as it's a brother I know, I must know everything and everything I say, Brother Xi, you can rest assured, Brother Xi, you are ......"
As the demon soldier spoke, Xi He walked into the room gently, he was worried that his movements would be too loud and affect Xiao Ru's rest, so he was light and didn't dare to make a sound.
I don't know why Xihe cared so much about Xiaoru from the beginning, after all, Xiaoru is still a demon, and she cares so much, just like taking care of her own child and her own sister. Xihe probably can't explain the reason, why he cherishes her so much, cares about her so much, and worries about her so much, is it just because of Xiaoru's cuteness and innocence, this shouldn't be as simple as it seems on the surface.
When Xi He saw Xiao Ru for the first time before, he was stunned, because she was too similar and missed what she was like when she was a child, needless to say, there was only one person who could make Xi He so worried and toss and turn night and night and couldn't sleep, and there was only one figure who couldn't linger in his heart - Mu Ting.
Mu Ting is not only the dearest relative of Xi He as an orphan in the world, but also the only relative, not just a relative, how many days and nights the two of them practice martial arts together, eat together, alchemy together, adventure together, every day and Mu Ting's life bits and pieces are clearly engraved in Xi He's mind, the promises, the once tacit are all completely broken because of Mu Ting's words, and Xi He's heart is broken together.
Because the more I care, the more I lose, the more my heart hurts. He couldn't stop Mu Ting from leaving, because Mu Ting couldn't give back what Xi He wanted, and the reason why he couldn't give Mu Ting what she wanted was just because the current Xi He was still a weak person, and the weak person was not qualified to make a promise, and the weak person couldn't be like the strong Even if it was an illusory promise, as long as it was said from the strong, then people would be extremely convinced of the promise in the mouth of the strong.
Since then, Xihe has secretly vowed to become stronger, so strong that no one can take people away from him again. For this obsession, he will always move forward, no matter what the road ahead, he will go on unswervingly.
From Xiaoru's body, Xihe seemed to see Mu Ting when she was a child, Mu Ting when she was a child was so simple, cute, and kind, but now she is ......
Xihe no longer thought that he had tried to convince himself, and even deceived himself, to forget Mu Ting, but in the end, he still couldn't forget the figure in his heart.
Quietly looking at Xiao Ru lying on the bed, Xi He couldn't help but feel a tenderness in his heart. Standing beside the stone bed for a long time, he waited until he heard the shouting of the brothers outside, then he woke up from his deep memories, got up and walked out of the door, the demon soldiers before were still waiting there, how could Brother Xi's request be neglected. Xihe stepped forward, clasped his fists at the demon soldier and said:
"Brother has been waiting outside, Xi is very grateful, let's go, let's go and drink a big bowl first!"
The demon soldier laughed and said, "Brother Xi is serious, brother can do something for Brother Xi, it is my honor, Brother Xi, how can Brother Xi say thank you! Just now the general came to look for you, it should be looking for you to drink, he saw that you didn't come out for a long time, I'm afraid there is something important, so he didn't bother, left a word and left." It's been a long time, Brother Xi should hurry up, I'll just drink with the underground brothers. ”
Xihe patted the demon soldier's shoulder and said with a smile:
"Good brother, then I won't have a good drink with my brother tonight, and I will make amends next time." ”
The demon soldier clenched his fists and was about to leave, but was stopped by Xi He when he just turned around.
"Brother, how is the little girl in the house?"
The demon soldier replied, "The injury is fine, it's just that a palm behind her back makes her qi and blood unstable, and after ten days and half a month of cultivation, I believe she will definitely recover from her injury!"
"Okay, then I'll be relieved. Thank you, brother!"
"Drink! Why just start drinking, you can't do it. ”
"I can't do it if the general is not a brother, but you are also fierce, you are really pouring an altar into your mouth! Brother, I just said it, I didn't expect the general to really do this!"
"Don't talk nonsense, in the end, it's not okay, if you can't give Lao Tzu down, replace a brother to drink with General Ben! Tell you that at your level and this amount of wine, Lao Tzu can single-handedly pick out ten of you!"
"Yo, brothers, the general can put down his words, if you want to single out ten of us, we can't let the general down! Come to ten brothers with the best amount of alcohol, we can't do it, general, you can really drink ten of us!"
When the brothers drink, remember not to cause public anger, otherwise this is the end.
Xihe rushed over, and when he heard He Lou's shouting in his throat, he couldn't help laughing.
"Big brother, I'm here, how about I come and have two drinks with you. ”
"Okay, you come! None of them can do it, but we brothers can't use cups or bowls, how about we have to drink from jars, brother!"
Xihe rolled up his sleeves and shouted:
"Why don't you dare!
"Okay, refreshed!
The next thing is to persuade and toast, toast, and pour wine! It was not until the second half of the night that the sound of fists and toasts subsided slightly, but it was replaced by the sound of snoring like thunder. The snoring rumbled, and they didn't feel any discomfort themselves, but the whole village didn't close their eyes all night.
In the end, only He Lou and Xihe were still holding the jar to drink, and they looked at it from a distance, but when they looked closely, they found that the wine overflowing from both sides of their mouths was far more than the wine that was drunk from their mouths.
"Big brother, brother heard you say that you disobeyed the order of the demon emperor and was punished here, what kind of order did the eldest brother unwilling to carry out?"
He Lou put down the wine jar in his hand, sighed, picked up the wine jar again and poured himself twice, and then said slowly:
"I, He Loulan, don't understand, why I saw that the Terran trialists were killing the people of my demon race, but the Demon Emperor didn't let us do it, did you think that Lao Tzu was afraid of them! Lao Tzu thinks that this order is the demon emperor's brain into the water, thinking that when I followed the demon emperor to charge on the battlefield, how strong and mighty the demon emperor was, but now he is old and his brain is not good or what's wrong, how to give this stinky order, Lao Tzu does not obey this stinky order, as long as Lao Tzu sees a human trialist wantonly killing my demon people, Lao Tzu will rush up and kill them!
Brother, did you say that the eldest brother did this right?"
"That's right, if it's a man, I'll do it too, it's a big deal!"
Xihe shouted. Hearing this answer, it was really the same as Xihe's previous speculation, this whole thing was an agreement between the high-level of the human race and the demon race, but the question now was, what is the real purpose behind this unbelievable agreement, and what is the mystery in it.
By the time Xihe woke up, it was already early the next morning.
