"Miss, this girl, which road here she wants to ask was built later?"

Xi He greeted the sound of a salute, and when he looked up and saw the woman on the sedan chair, his eyes were shocked, and he blurted out, "Qingmi." ”

She looked at Xihe suspiciously, and couldn't help asking, "Does the girl recognize me?" ”

"I—" When she didn't know how to explain, Xue Gu, who was standing in the shade of the tree, didn't know when she came to her, she raised her hand to the person in the sedan chair, and asked, "Girl, I wonder if you can tell us which of these roads is the old way?" ”

The woman turned her head to look at the fork in the road, pointed to the southeast road, and replied, "This is the old road from the past, and the other one was built later." ”

"Thank you, girl." She hugged her fists again, and after making way with Xihe, she watched the carriage drift away.

After the carriage left, Xue Gu said in Xihe's ear, "We can't interfere with the Immortal Tribulation, otherwise we will never be able to go back if the Tribulation fails." ”

"I was so surprised to see her just now, but fortunately you came in time."

Xihe looked at the carriage that was drifting away, hoping that she would not meet that person in this life.

After having the map of Nuwa Stone, their footsteps were significantly faster, and they arrived at the Narcissus Country in less than a day, which is more than 300 kilometers away from Shuicheng and is one of the richest countries in the south.

Most of the inns were closed, and when they passed a dilapidated temple, they planned to go in for a night's rest before leaving.

"Dante Temple." Xi He read according to the lintel.

"This temple is located in the center of the city of Narcissus Country, and it is built so grandly, why is it abandoned now?" She looked around, and even though it was covered in dust, she could still see traces of her former glory.

Yu Jingzi continued, "I heard that the emperor of the Narcissus Kingdom ordered the demolition of all the temples in the city ten years ago, so there are no temples in the Narcissus Country, and this one has not been demolished, I guess it may be because the demolition will cost the people and money." ”

As soon as they entered the temple, a group of beggars came to the courtyard, and when they saw them, they said arrogantly, "Who are you?" Who let you into Uncle Ben's territory? ”

Xi He looked around, and there were indeed traces of people living here.

"How did a ruined temple become your territory?" Xue Gu walked to the door with a sword in one hand and said disappreciably.

"I said it was Uncle Ben's, and that was Uncle Ben's." The beggar at the head knocked on the stick in his hand, raised a gray face, and spoke in an extremely arrogant tone, "If you know each other, go out quickly, and if you don't go out, don't blame me for being rude." ”

A group of younger brothers who followed him all relied on him to coax and echo.

Xue Gu was angry, and wanted to step forward to compete with them, but was pulled by Xi He behind him in time, "Xue Gu, no." ”

"If you don't give them a look, they really think we're easy to mess with." Xue Gu said angrily.

"Aunt Xue, before leaving, Master explained many times that you must not interfere with the lives of mortals, if you have a conflict with a group of mortals, there will be big trouble in the future."

Xue Gu really stopped, looked unconvinced, and asked, "It's so late, do you really want us to move a place for them?" ”

Xihe walked to the door and said politely to them, "Brothers, we really don't have any other place to stay when we pass by here, and this inn is also closed, can you make it convenient for the four of us to stay in this temple for one night?" ”

"One night?"

"Yes, just one night, we'll leave early tomorrow morning."

The beggar at the head showed a sly sly smile and pondered, "It's not impossible, but..."

He raised his hand and rubbed his fingers hintly, anyone with a discerning eye knew that he wanted to take advantage of the fire to rob, Xi He naturally understood that although the other party was arrogant, arrogant in words and deeds, but in her opinion, he was just a powerless mortal, and it was even more pitiful to become a beggar, so he honestly took out a gem from his arms.

The beggars' eyes were wide and their necks were stretched out, and they all looked at the jewel in her palm.

Seeing that she was generous, the beggar who didn't want to be the leader became even more greedy, pursed his lips, and said, "Are you sending Hanako?" ”

Yu Jingzi stepped forward, hugged her arms, and laughed, "Aren't you just a group of people called Hanako?" ”

"Who are you talking about?" The group of beggars choked on his words, which were good, but inevitably made them feel uncomfortable.

Xi He was busy playing a round in the middle of it, and said with a smile, "Brothers, this gem can be eaten by you for a few years." ”

The beggar at the head snorted and said arrogantly, "Uncle Ben said that if it is not enough, it is not enough." ”

This group of beggars looked ugly, and Xihe didn't care about them, so he took a jewel out of his arms, but he didn't expect that the beggar leader still disliked what she gave.

At this time, Yu Jingzi pulled off a piece of peiyu that he often hung from his waist, which was shaped like a snake, with a smooth and clear texture, and its value could be seen at a glance.

Xihe stopped him and whispered in his ear, "Yujingzi, if it really doesn't work, let's leave, don't give them such a good peiyu." ”

Yu Jingzi smiled at her, shook Peiyu in front of this group of beggars, and asked with a smile, "I wonder if it is enough to add this Peiyu?" ”

At first, they stared at the jewel in Xihe's hand without blinking, and now they saw a piece of fine jade, and the group of beggars almost stuck their eyes to this piece of snake jade.

"Enough! That's enough! The beggar's face bloomed with a smile, and just as he was about to reach out to take it, Yu Jingzi took Peiyu back, and even took away the two orbs in his hand.

He smiled and said, "It's a pity that Uncle Ben thinks your broken temple is too small, with this jewel, I can live in a first-class room in this narcissus country, why should I be slaughtered by you like a big man." ”

As he spoke, he pulled up Xihe and prepared to go out of the outer courtyard, the beggars were teased, naturally their hearts were on fire, and they lost their faces in an instant, and picked up sticks to stop them, "Do you think Uncle Ben's territory is where you can come and go as you want?" ”

The group of younger brothers behind him were also majestic, one of them was holding a stick and was menacing, Yu Jingzi stood in place, and smiled helplessly, "If it weren't for my sister's kindness, I had to negotiate with you, and you would have been lying on the ground by now." ”

Yu Jingzi turned his wrist and smiled evilly, "It just so happens that I haven't moved my muscles and bones for a long time, so I'll use you to stretch first." ”

He was just about to take a step forward, but Xihe behind him grabbed his sleeve, paused for a moment, and said, "Just teach them a lesson, don't hurt anyone." ”

"Don't worry, sister."

Seeing that he was the only one in the group of beggars, the group first laughed at him for not knowing what to do, and then the beggar leader found a person from the younger brother who thought he was reliable and went out to fight, Yu Jingzi smiled, "Who are you looking down on?" ”

Seeing that he was so arrogant, he sent two more men up.

Even if it's three to one, you don't have to think about it to know that Yu Jingzi can take down the other three people without much effort.

And Xue Gu, who was standing on the side, had already seen that these beggars were not pleasing to the eye, if it wasn't for Xihe who didn't let her do it just now, she would have solved this pile of troubles, and seeing that Yu Jingzi was fighting briskly, she also joined in.

Now, I can't stop it.

"Don't worry, I have my own measure, it's just a gesture and a fist, I won't use immortal magic to deal with these mortals." Xue Gu said.

The beggar saw that the little brothers who went up one after another were easily knocked to the ground by the two of them, and suddenly couldn't sit still, and directly ordered a group of people to rush up together.

Seeing that all the beggars who pounced on her were beaten to the ground, the beggar leader secretly moved behind Xue Gu and took out a sharp dagger out of nowhere to stab her in the back.

"Aunt Xue, be careful!" Xihe immediately screamed, and it was too late to rush forward.

Fortunately, Yu Jingzi keenly sensed that something was wrong behind him, raised his hand and swept directly behind Xue Gu, punched the beggar leader's chest, pinched the yin hand behind Xue Gu with three fingers and folded it down, and a crisp sound of broken bones startled the birds in the surrounding trees with a painful cry.

By the time Xue Gu turned around, the beggar leader was already lying on the ground, holding his immobile wrist and wailing.

"You brought it all on." Yu Jingzi sneered, looked at the beggar lying on the ground, and said angrily, "Don't get out of here, if you don't roll up, Uncle Ben won't even see the sun tomorrow." ”

The beggars on the ground got up one by one, helped the boss on the ground, and before leaving, the beggar leader glanced at Xue Gu and Xihe, and still said arrogantly, "Hmph! I wish you were living here! ”

Seeing that the group of beggars fled in embarrassment, several people also re-entered the house, and as soon as they sat down, Xihe recalled what the leader of the beggar gang had just said, obviously he hadn't let them live before, why did he say that he wished they lived here?

Thinking about a burst of sleepiness, Xi He tilted his head and gradually fell asleep, and it didn't take long for the bracelet on her wrist to faintly shine, and the mountain ghost sitting on the other side felt the abnormality of the lock spirit bracelet, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Xi He, who was not far from him, was leaning on the shoulder of Yu Jingzi, who was sitting next to her at some point, and fell asleep.

He frowned, his expression displeased.

As soon as he raised his hand, he pushed Yu Jingzi to lie outside the door, and he moved to her side in an instant, staring at her bracelet, and the lock spirit bracelet stopped,

Xihe hung his head and nodded left and right, he showed an imperceptible smile, and gently put her head on his shoulder, she was still sleeping peacefully, not noticing that there was another person beside her.

As soon as it was dawn, Xihe woke up from her sleep, rubbing her sore neck, and when she turned around, she realized that she was leaning on the shoulder of the mountain ghost.

Fortunately, she moved lightly and did not wake him up, this was the first time she looked at him so calmly at close range, she involuntarily leaned towards him again, without those sharp and cold eyes, he looked much gentler at this time.

"Why did I sleep outside the door?" Xihe was staring at the mountain ghost and laughing, and a crisp young voice suddenly came from outside the door.

She quickly stood up and flashed to the other side with a weak heart, looking at Yu Jingzi who walked in with her waist rubbing.

At this time, the mountain ghost slowly opened his purple eyes without a trace of temperature, and looked at the look that Xi He was trying to hide, and the corners of his lips rose slightly.

He straightened his shirt and got up, and said, "Since it's dawn, let's go." ”

"Hmm."

Xihe picked up his package, looked around, and found that there was no figure of Xue Gu in the house, "Where is Xue Gu?" ”
