……

In the domain of the night, at the end of the day, Xu Mu returned to Fengqing Village with two people.

The candles flickered, and the room was dark.

He didn't like this color.

His gray pupils moved slightly, as if he had thought of something, and he raised his hand to extinguish the candle, and then pulled down the rope buried under the edge of the kang.

Ding dong.

With a soft sound, the light tube on the roof emitted a soft white light, and the two people who watched it were amazed:

"What a clever magic weapon."

The old man without eyebrows glanced at Xu Mu, and then looked up at the electric light, a little curious.

He could see that it was made of metal, and the process was not cumbersome.

The problem is, he didn't even perceive the ability from here.

Artifacts that don't cost abilities don't exist, so how did this thing light up?

"Zila!"

The water in the teapot boiled, burst out of the lid, and slid onto the stove, where the vapor evaporated and made a sizzling sound.

Xu Mu ignored the old man's puzzled eyes, and silently made a pot of tea for the two.

"Please."

Whether it is the technique of making tea or the aroma of the tea itself, it can be said to be superior.

But the woman in the white dress looked at the freshly brewed tea on the table, and there was obvious thirst in her eyes, but she was indifferent.

Xu Mu noticed this, and then naturally became a little curious about her.

Since the time I met in Xishan, when I arrived in Fengqing Village, the woman in the white dress had said no more than three sentences in total, and it was basically the old man who had strong strength talking.

And the veil that shrouded her face seemed to be a high-grade magic weapon, covered with mysterious runes, which could isolate all exploration.

Who are they who need to go to such great lengths to cover their identities?

- Most probability, it is a noble lady of the family.

Xu Mu's body looked at the woman silently, even if she didn't say a word and didn't take off the veil, she could still see from the sound of her voice and the body movements between walks that this woman was not too old, maybe she was a peer.

Since she is a young lady of the same age, her appearance must not be much worse.

So...... Which one will look better, she or Yin Shui'er?

Xu Mu thought about this, and then his vision was suddenly blocked.

When he came back to his senses, he saw the old man without eyebrows in front of him, staring at him with a serious face.

"Little friend, it's getting late."

Xu Mu reacted at this time, as if the other party had misunderstood something.

In fact, all he was thinking about was Yin Shui'er...... did not mean to despise the man.

But it's okay to be misunderstood, he doesn't care.

"I haven't drunk the tea yet."

Xu Mu looked away and replied lightly.

This is the tea he made himself, the emperor may not have this treatment, you want to sleep if you don't drink it?

Hearing this, the old man in front of him shook his head and smiled.

This is to take the opportunity of drinking tea to spy on my young lady's face?

"Carving insect skills!"

I saw that the old man's face was ruthless, his left and right hands stretched out, picked up two hot teas respectively, and then drank it:

"Goo."

"I happened to be a little thirsty, and I smiled."

The corners of the old man's mouth were red, and he had regretted it countless times in his heart, but on the surface, he was only smiling slightly.

"Sure enough, it's a domain master-level master."

The gray pupil only felt that this person was inexplicable, and the water that had just boiled was actually drunk as soon as he said it.

He shook his head slightly:

"It seems that the seniors are really thirsty, if you still want to drink, I still have a pot here."

So saying, he got up and went to the stove to get water.

When the old man saw this, he was immediately surprised, and quickly grabbed his arm, a little embarrassed:

"No need little brother, I've quenched my thirst."

"So now, can we sleep?"

Xu Mu raised his eyebrows slightly, sleeping?

If this sentence came out of the mouth of the woman in the white dress, it must be very charming.

But when an old man with no hair and eyebrows stretched his neck and squinted his eyes to ask this question, it was a man who had been imprisoned in a prison for thirty years, and he couldn't bear to think in that direction.

So he pointed to a hut on the side:

"There is only one guest room, presumably for this girl, and the senior may have to sleep with me."

"No problem." The old man grinned and touched his bare head a little embarrassed, "We haven't slept seriously in the past few days, so we're really sleepy." ”

Xu Mu didn't understand why he had to explain this to himself, and it was twice.

But he could feel that this old-timer who could summon heavenly thunder and bombard a lord tiger demon with just two fingers should be really sleepy.

So he stretched out his arm:

"Please."

……

Xu Mu found a set of spare bedding, and after a brief rush before and after, he took out all the extra things in the guest room.

The woman in the white dress stood silently on the side, looking at Xu Mu's pitch-black back, as if she was a little curious.

She always felt that this person had an inexplicable temperament, and that feeling was difficult to describe, neither pretending to be born as an immortal, nor like a noble son or an ordinary countryman.

This young man who dared to draw his sword at the fourth-stage demon was unlike anyone she had seen before.

The old man and the woman standing on the side glanced at each other, and there was a rare doubt in their eyes.

He talked to Xu Mu the most, and naturally he could feel more differences in the other party.

And he couldn't even recognize the realm of this doll, which was very strange, and he could actually prevent his divine soul from probing?

The old man frowned, remembering what he had seen and heard during this period of time, and couldn't help but sigh secretly:

"The domain of the strange night, as expected, lives up to its name, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon."

"This room has never been occupied, so it has not been specially cleaned, and the bedding is all new, but it has been placed for a long time, and it is inevitable that it will be a little damp."

The woman tapped her chin lightly: "It's okay." ”

The old man without eyebrows came back to his senses, and then smiled:

"Just have a place to live, don't you know, we've slept so badly for the past two days......"

Thinking of what happened in the past two days, the old man's eyes showed a burst of happiness for the rest of his life.

The domain of the treacherous night, as expected, is indeed one of the eight polluted places, this time he went deep into the West Mountain, not to mention looking for the legendary holy relics, and even his own life was almost lost......

Xu Mu saw the fleeting expression on the old man's face, so he nodded slightly:

"That's the core area of Xishan, lord-level demons are everywhere, and it's not easy for seniors to fall asleep there."

When the old man heard this, his smile froze.

Is it possible that this kid can read minds?

How did he know he was in the core!

The woman in the white dress didn't react, just walked into the room and spread the quilt on her own.

"It's not too early."

This is the third time the old man has said this.

Xu Mu smiled knowingly, exited the guest room, and then sat on the wooden chair, even though it was already early in the morning, very late, but he still had no intention of sleeping.

The old man silently took off his boots and put on the kang, then spread the quilt, and looked at the young man sitting on the wooden chair drinking tea, a little surprised:

"You're not sleeping yet?"

"I don't sleep, so I don't need a pillow, and it's better for seniors to put their heads higher, which is good for the body."

"More pillows, good for the body?" , The old man squinted his eyes and replied with a smile, "Although I am not as young as you, I am not the kind of frail and sickly bad old man, why should I be so particular." ”

As he spoke, for some reason, the old man's deep eyes suddenly emitted a sharp edge like an eagle, and he half-leaned on the quilt and stared at Xu Mu motionlessly.

The old man didn't understand, this young man obviously saw him kill the lord with heavenly thunder, but he didn't have half a bit of cowardice.

In the process of talking to him, under the surface of respect, the essential dialogue is actually equal, and he has never taken the initiative.

It's not that he didn't want to put on a show of the scores of his predecessors, but every time he talked to that kid, he would follow his train of thought and inexplicably fall passive.

And now, he even let himself put an extra pillow, saying that he is not in good health.

Was this a test to see if he was hurt, or did he really see something?

Countless possibilities instantly floated through the old man's heart, but his expression did not change at all, his eyes stared sharply at Xu Mu, trying to suppress the other party's aura with this.

But the gray pupil just looked at it calmly:

"Seniors don't have to meet me."

"I have a lot of research on the treatment of diseases and injuries, at least half of the hundreds of holes in your body are blocked by bruising, the ribs are displaced, and the heart is compressed all the time, if you lie flat, the injury will only get worse."

The old man's face changed drastically after hearing this, and he was about to refute, but Xu Mu said with a serious expression:

"Sticking your mouth is something that only a three-year-old does."

"Senior, let's put a pillow."

……

The old man looked at the smiling young man in front of him, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he did not speak.

He was indeed different from ordinary old men, because he was a fifth-stage supernatural being.

With just two fingers, he could kill the existence of a lord-level tiger demon.

But even so, he suffered a lot of internal injuries in Xishan.

However, he thought that he was well disguised and that ordinary people could not see it.

— but actually, he showed his flaws at the beginning.

When the first finger failed to destroy the tiger demon, Xu Mu had already found the clue.

As a human being who has studied psychology and sociology, Hitomi Gray can understand why he wants to hide his injuries from himself.

The relationship between people is very complicated, and if one party exposes its weaknesses, even if the strength is strong, the other party will inevitably have crooked thoughts.

And the reason why Xu Mu wants to make things clear is because he wants to further bring the relationship between the two closer.

Becoming friends with the fifth-stage supernatural person, no matter how strong the person is, is unlikely to refuse, and how to get closer to each other is an esoteric science.

"I'm not hurt, you're mistaken."

The old man put the pillow to one side and sat up straight.

He was indeed sleepy, but meditation and pranayama was the most important thing to do, and since the window paper between the two had been pierced, there was no need for him to put it on.

But you still have to be tough.

"Perhaps, I can help you heal?"

Xu Mu smiled, took out a cloth bag from the corner table, and then brought it to the old man, and the silver needles were lined up in turn.

The two rows of silver needles, in the light that is not dim, exude a sharp and simple atmosphere.

When the old man saw this thing, his face was a little puzzled:

"Silver needle?"
