Volume 1 The Wind Rises Chapter 37 I am in charge of the family

At dawn, a burst of rooster crows pierced the night.

Yunxi Town, Niuhoi Alley, in the tea shop, He Xu was lying on the kang head, sleeping sweetly.

He sleeps very poorly, he can turn over and over twenty or thirty times at night, and he likes to kick the quilt, so he always has a cold in winter, and he has a snot all year round.

He Xu, who was asleep, subconsciously probed to the other side of the pit, and there was nothing beside him. He was startled and jumped up from the kang suddenly.

"Sister?" He rubbed his sleepy eyes.

On the chair opposite, the blind girl, with a gray and godless eye, glowed again, He Xi looked at He Xu, and a line of tears fell.

"Sister, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying? He Xu threw himself into He Xi's arms at once, rolled up his sleeves and helped her wipe away her tears.

He Xi smiled with tears and touched He Xu's little head: "I haven't seen He Xu for so many years, I didn't expect to grow so tall......"

He Xu's face was the same as Xia Ze's, tanned by the sun, stumbling on his body, bruises, freshly scabbed wounds, old and new scars, there were few good places, and the girl looked at her brother's appearance, and her heart was even more sour.

"I've suffered a lot over the years..... "The girl hugged her brother tightly, and her voice was a little choked.

"Sister! What the hell is wrong with you! He Xu broke free from He Xi's arms, puzzled questions and answers.

He suddenly found He Xi's sad but full of brilliance, and suddenly said in surprise: "Sister, can you see me!" ”

He Xi nodded, hugged his brother tightly, tears couldn't stop falling, and the other eye, which was still gray, was even more cold.

The girl's face was constantly changing, sometimes cold, sometimes painful, like two different people fighting for control of the body in a body.

In the end, she choked up and said, "I'm sorry, He Xu, you have to ...... well"

He Xu was so frightened that he raised his head suddenly, but what he came into contact with was He Xi's cold and ruthless eyes, his sister's gentleness and care, a little annihilation, his eyes were black, and he fainted.

She put He Xu on the bed and walked slowly towards the outside of the house, and when she stepped over the threshold, she turned her head and looked at the unconscious He Xu, her eyes full of greed, like a hungry beast, coveting delicious poultry.

He Xi's scolding came from the heart lake, and the strange He Xi frowned, and then quietly left Yunxi Town.

Everything that happened in the town, Xia Ze naturally didn't know.

After last night's big battle, there were very few sect teams that insisted on entering the mountain, plus Xia Ze and Song Xi, a total of three or four teams, but after Wu Xiao's greetings, he put up the fairy master's shelf, and if he didn't want to deal with it, he even saved his nostrils to look at people.

originally thought that taking advantage of Wu Xiao's east wind would save him a lot of trouble along the way, but after eating closed doors one after another, he had to distance himself from afar.

Tongzi Peak, because of its steep slope, high mountain shape posture, quite like a boy squatting on the ground, so it is named, there is a ten zhang open and bright cave under the mountain, after passing, then come to the only flying locust crossing stone bridge that can cross the surging river.

The fog dissipated, the lineup of the stone bridge on the flying locust crossing gradually appeared in front of everyone, Xia Ze, Mu Tao and his party rode horses, walked on the stone bridge, under the bridge is the rolling river, the water is turbulent, the river water washes for many years, on the reefs on both sides, leaves a lot of craggy strange stones, magnificent and magnificent.

Although Wu Xiao did not ride a horse, his walking speed was not lost to everyone, and he was calm and relaxed, and he was always able to stay by Xia Ze's side.

Nie Yueming and Su Xian, also riding horses, followed closely behind Old Man Song, and the woman looked at the front of the team and changed into Wu Xiao, who was dressed in unstained white clothes, jade and golden, and there was a different brilliance in her eyebrows.

This time, Nie Yueming had a bitter face and didn't say a word on the horse. Last night, Song Xi desperately tried to protect the lives of the two of them, but he didn't dare to yell at Old Man Song anymore. is anxiously guessing whether Mu Tao will make public the ugly deeds of his desire to riot and kill.

"Thousands of years ago, the horse crying tomb was an ancient battlefield of immortals, countless immortals, sects, and warriors fought here, and finally all fell here, this flying locust crossing the stone arch bridge, according to legend, was transformed by a certain immortal sword flying locust."

As he walked, Wu Xiao explained to the people behind him that this two-mile-long stone arch bridge, without any guardrails and slopes, could only accommodate two horses.

If it weren't for the fact that it was transformed by the sword of the immortals, as rumored, it is hard to imagine how ordinary people would have built such a narrow arch bridge in the midst of this turbulent river.

Walking to the center, an old man in a yellow straw coat was fishing on the bridge, just blocking everyone's way. The woman next to her, in her early thirties, held a bamboo basket wrapped in cloth in her hand, combed a dignified and atmospheric Chaoyun near incense bun, and wore a thin robe.

"Old man, we are going into the mountains to worship our ancestors, can you let us go." Fu Qi dismounted and made a way.

The old man glanced at him, as if he was very disgusted with the charm and did not go to the road, turned his head to hold the fishing rod, and continued to look at the surging river.

Fu Qi was a little confused for a while, this boiling river, the fish in it was afraid that there was no chance to turn over the white belly, what was he fishing there?

The woman beside her, looking at a few handsome little brothers on the opposite side, was secretly happy in her heart, gave a blessing, and walked towards the group.

"Guest officer, do you want freshly baked big white steamed buns?" She smiled, put on a glamorous posture, and deliberately straightened the high point of her chest.

With this sentence, she quickly looked at the young man riding on the horse in front of her, his skin was darker, and he didn't dare to compliment his dress, but his foundation was not bad, it was the girl on another white horse next to her, she didn't look easy to mess with, and she thought there was a master.

Behind him, one fat and one thin, two young men, white and clean, dressed like a rich and noble family, the thin one, holding a serious young master, saw his move, and muttered a not very nice thing in his mouth.

She laughed in her heart, such a layman with a righteous gentleman's shelf, she has seen a lot, which one didn't bow down under her pomegranate skirt in the end, lingering, and so on to take him back to the cave, and call him the Three Platforms and Five Constants, all of them are forgotten!

When she finally saw Wu Xiao's true face, Qinghuang couldn't help but exclaim in her heart, like an elk in spring, gnawing and biting in the heart field.

I knew that there was such a well-carved young man, why did she waste time on ordinary men, she didn't even bother to look at Song Xi, Nie Yueming and the others, trotted a few steps, and ran towards Wu Xiao.

"This guest officer, do you want freshly baked steamed buns? Will it still be hot, don't you keep it for dry food on the road? ”

When she said this, there was a faint fragrance of fragrant herbs emanating from the woman's body, I don't know what kind of spice was used, and the person who smelled it would slowly feel itchy and unbearable, for example, Nie Yueming, who had been staring at the woman somewhere, was scratching her liver and cheeks at the moment, and the heat was unbearable.

Wu Xiao still didn't change his smile, and said softly: "This wilderness, the land is full of moisture, where does the woman make a cooking fire, and what kind of stuffing is this steamed bun." ”

The woman stared at Wu Xiao's handsome face, for fear that she would regret it for the rest of her life if she missed any glance, she lifted the blue cloth cover, took out a steaming white steamed bun, and put it on Wu Xiao's hand, and drew a few circles on his palm, intentionally or unintentionally, before reluctantly withdrawing her hand.

"Ten miles west here, is my home, I know that someone is going to go into the mountain to worship the ancestors today, and I deliberately sell it here to subsidize the family, this steamed bun has bean paste filling, there is beef filling, I hope the son will not dislike it, buy more."

The woman's delicate tone is a little too contrived in the ears of Mu Tao Xia Ze, but for some hungry ghosts, it is just right.

Xia Ze and Mu Tao looked at the waters of nearly ten miles to the west and smiled at each other.

It's like a point of editing.

Wu Xiao broke open a bun, sprayed incense, and joked half-truthfully: "Madam, this can't be made of human flesh, right?" Or put sweat medicine, and I want to use it to make meat filling? Xiaosheng is cowardly, he has never seen the world, but don't harm me. ”

"What the guest officer said, you were born so white, so that the women in the countryside and villages have to love each other when they see it, and it's too late to eat and drink for it, how can it hurt you." The woman laughed so hard that she almost fell into Wu Xiao's arms.

Song Xi couldn't stand it anymore, and scolded: "I've been dealing with people for decades, don't take advantage of people in human skin here, quickly take things and get away." ”

The woman, who had been disturbed by the good things, glared at him with disgust, and then reluctantly walked out of Wu Hao's arms, sorted out her manners, and said angrily: "Since Old Man Song has spoken, let's do business and pay for it." ”

said this, and did not forget to flirt with Wu Xiao's eyebrows.

"Grandpa Song paid for it? What to pay? Xia Ze asked.

Old man Song explained: "These two mountain spirits and wild monsters who don't know where they came from, have robbed the road here since I was a headhunter in the first year, this vast river, the flying locust crossing stone arch bridge is the only path to the flying locust crossing, if you don't give him a reward on the bridge, you will be in a dilemma." ”

Song Xi Nunu mouth, under the stone bridge hung a few pieces of mountain clothes that had been washed by the river, and there were unwashed blood stains on them.

He took out two ingots of gold and was about to hand them over to Qinghuang, but Xia Ze grabbed them and pushed them back to Song Xi, and Lang said: "I'm sorry, this lady, this money is given every year, and the rules have to be changed this year, the daughter-in-law is strict, do you want money, have you let it or not?" ”

The woman sneered: "Your little brother is also handsome, I can't imagine that he is still a poop ear?" How? If you kill today, you have to rely on not paying? Let's spend it here, and see if you have what it takes to go from locust to flank? ”

Mu Tao smiled and beckoned: "This sister-in-law, you misunderstood, I am in charge of family affairs, the man can't speak, and the silver is in my package." ”

When Qinghuang heard this, his face looked a little better, walked to Mu Tao's side, and stretched out his hand: "Since it is the little lady in charge, then bring the silver." ”

Mu Tao smiled and took out something and put it in the palm of Qinghuang's palm.

Suddenly, he heard a stabbing sound, Qinghuang screamed fiercely, and when he looked down, there was a demon suppression talisman in his palm.
