Hearing the little girl's crying, Cheng Chen flashed back to the stone pile and said softly, "What's wrong?" Or is it still injured? Let me see! ”

Hearing the sudden words, the woman was startled, and the little girl was even more stunned, and the crying slowly stopped. The thin body slowly moved behind the woman, and the look of fear in her eyes remained.

The woman glanced at Cheng Chen, similar to the figure just now, and knew that this person had just saved them, but such a dangerous thing had just happened, so that she didn't know for a while whether she should believe that he was a good person, not to mention that they were still two weak women, if they were bad people, what should they do.

But after thinking about it, this person is their life-saving benefactor after all, and they should say thank you for their feelings, so they hurriedly bent over and said: "Thank you little brother for saving your life, but it's a pity that the concubine really has nothing to do, so I have to repay it with this only heart flower." ”

Then the woman took out a jade box from the storage bag, and there was indeed a heart-shaped flower in it, the woman handed the jade box to Cheng Chen with one hand, and gently pulled the little girl's head with the other hand, and whispered: "Yue'er, thank you, uncle!" ”

Although the thin little girl's face was full of fear, she still opened her mouth when she heard the woman's voice, and said softly, "Thank you, Uncle Yue'er!" ”

Cheng Chen didn't look at the jade box that came out, but just looked at the little girl's weak cheeks, and the woman's other arm gently holding the little girl, which trembled slightly, obviously afraid that he would hurt the little girl.

Cheng Chen understood the woman's feelings, after all, they didn't know each other now, and it was normal to have this reaction.

Seeing that the little girl was not injured, but just crying in fear, Cheng Chen's heart relaxed, he didn't want to save the second person with great difficulty, and also caused the injury, smiled easily and then looked away.

Seeing his smile, the little girl's heart suddenly settled down a lot, and the woman on the side hurriedly picked up the jade box again with both hands and said, "I hope that Engong will receive this little reward!" ”

It's just that Cheng Chen still didn't go to meet but turned around and left, leaving only a faint word: "No need, it's just a gesture, there is a village ahead, if you are tired, you can go to the village to rest, and then it's not too late to hurry!" ”

The woman didn't expect him to walk so fast, so she had to say loudly again: "Thank you! Yue'er, thank you for your kindness! ”

After that, a weak voice floated again: "Yue'er thanked Engong!" ”

Seeing that there was no reply in front of him, and Cheng Chen's figure quickly disappeared on the road, the woman and the little girl slowly withdrew their gaze.

At this time, the night was about to pass, and the sky even slowly rose the white of the fish's belly, and the woman looked at the sky in the distance, and remembered the thrilling scene just now, and couldn't help but pat her heart happily.

Then I suddenly remembered the galloping carriage, and I couldn't help but look back, and in the dim light, I found that the carriage was still parked seventy or eighty feet away, and there was no sound.

Although she didn't know what was going on in the carriage, the woman hurriedly took the little girl's hand and walked forward tiredly, and at the same time said, "Yue'er, let's go quickly, we are about to arrive!" ”

The little girl didn't have such good eyesight, so she didn't see the situation behind, but she still obediently followed, but there were still doubts: "Mother, is Nanxi Village about to arrive?" Is it the same village in front of the uncle you just said? ”

Hearing the little girl say this, the woman also remembered that Cheng Chen had indeed said that, so she returned: "It should be, but I don't know who Engong is, we still have to pay more attention after entering the village, understand?" ”

The little girl frowned and pursed her lips: "Mother, uncle saved us, he must be a good person!" ”

The woman's tired face was full of helplessness, but she still didn't say more, after all, it was good to maintain her innocence at such a young age, but she just took the little girl's hand tighter: "Okay, Yue'er, are you tired after a night's walk?" ”

The little girl shook her head, and her thin body even jumped briskly twice: "No, mother, you know, I don't feel tired when I walk at night, but mother, you are in a hurry these nights, and you have to inquire about the news during the day, and you have not rested well." ”

The woman stopped and looked at the little girl's beating, smiled with satisfaction, just looked at the moonlight falling from the sky, a trace of melancholy crossed her tired face, and the woman quickly collected her mood and pulled the little girl forward again.

On the other side, in the carriage seventy or eighty feet away, there was still no sound, and looking through the curtain that had been lifted on one side, one could see a child lying on a small couch, its body motionless.

After a while, I saw his arm begin to twist, and then his body suddenly jumped up from the couch, and picked up a long sword from the side of the couch, and swung it around twice, and at the same time an anxious voice came: "Uncle Gong, Uncle Gong, save me!" Well? What about people? ”

Then the half-lifted curtains were lifted, and a boy of seven or eight years old stood by the window, with a stout body and a frivolous look, and no one would have guessed that it was a child of seven or eight years old who had such eyes.

The boy looked out the window, and there was no one under the gray sky, and he picked up the long sword in his hand again, only to find that the sword was only half left, and the fracture was very new, very smooth, and glowing with a little cold light, so that it must have been a good sword before.

Seeing that the sword had been broken, the boy angrily slashed twice at the window with the broken sword, and several openings soon appeared in the window, and the corners of his mouth said fiercely: "He ran away, he actually cut off my newly bought sword and ran away, Uncle Gong, you have to avenge me!" ”

After saying that, he slashed a few times again, but still did not hear any reply, and this time the boy remembered that he had never heard his uncle Gong speak.

So he hurriedly stepped towards the car door and lifted the curtain, only to see a very thin opening on the curtain, the width of which was the same as the width of the broken sword, but the boy didn't care.

When he opened it quickly, he saw a middle-aged scribe outside the carriage lying unconscious on the seat, one leg dripping with blood, and the boy was startled at first glance. Immediately after that, he hurriedly stepped forward, shaking the scribe's body regardless of the blood, and shouted anxiously while shaking: "Uncle Gong, Uncle Gong, what's wrong with you?" Hurry up! ”

The middle-aged scribe was shaken a few times, and then he saw his brows slowly frowning, the corners of his mouth began to twitch, and the corners of his eyes twitched and opened: "Hiss... Don't shake it, don't shake it, shake my leg again and it's useless! ”

The boy saw that the middle-aged scribe finally woke up and hurriedly stopped shaking, but his words were a little strange, and looked at his leg suspiciously, only to find that there was a broken blade stuck in the leg covered with blood, and at this time, blood slowly flowed out of the wound of the broken blade.

Seeing the broken blade, the boy felt inexplicably familiar, looked at the broken sword in his hand, and suddenly said, "This is?" This is my sword, Uncle Gong, are you okay! ”

Uncle Gong laughed angrily at his words, can I be okay like this? took out the healing medicine and was about to pour it on the wound, but when he saw the boy, he hurriedly asked, "Young Master Yu, are you okay?" Are there any injuries? ”

Hearing Uncle Gong's words, the boy was a little puzzled, he lowered his head and looked at himself, this expression made Uncle Gong panic, this guy must not have an accident, if he is injured, I will suffer!

But I saw that the boy just looked at himself twice, and then said, "Do I look like something?" Uncle Gong, I didn't have any fear, I even fought him with a sword when that person came! ”

Hearing that the boy was fine, the scribe relieved his heart, but when he said that he had beaten him, his heart rose again: "Yes?" How did you fight? ”

As soon as I asked this, I saw the boy scratching his head: "Eh, I saw a figure rushing into the car, and hurriedly drew his sword to cut him, but I only saw a blue light rushing to the body of the sword, and then I fainted, but when I woke up, the man had already fled!"

The middle-aged scribe was amused by his words, did they run away? I was stabbed in the thigh with a broken blade, and you kid's credit!

However, after hearing the boy's description, he had a deeper understanding of the cultivation of the person who came, I am afraid that it was at least one level higher than him, fortunately, this person did not kill him, this person is not something he can afford to provoke, it is better to leave early.

Quickly pulled out the broken blade, hastily stopped the bleeding, and smeared the healing medicine, and then started on the road again, but he didn't dare to run fast anymore.

At this time, the sky was white, and the boy saw the white sky, walked into the carriage with a bitter face, and fell on the couch: "It's over, I will definitely be punished by my father when I go back this time!" Also, my new sword... ”

At this time, a woman wearing coarse cloth at the other end of the road stood at the entrance of a village and carefully observed the situation in the village, and a thin little girl in a red dress held in her hand also looked curious.

There are three big characters of Nanxi Village at the entrance of the village, and it is found that the village is not big, there are fewer households, and there is only a small noodle spread on the street in the early morning, and only three or two people are walking on the street.

The night passed, and it was early in the morning, but the little girl's original energetic expression in the night was a little sluggish at this time, and her originally thin body was also a little trembling in the breeze, and the woman's eyes were full of distress.

So he hurriedly led her to the only open noodle stall, ordered two hot noodles, and when the noodles were served on the table, the little girl hurriedly drank a few sips of steaming noodle soup, and the hot soup entered the belly The little girl's trembling body gradually improved, and her yellowish complexion finally had a hint of ruddyness, but it was still delicate when she looked at it.

The women on the side were a little relieved when they saw the little girl's slightly better look, so they asked the vendor on the side: "Boss, may I ask what sects are there around here!" ”

The vendor looked at her and said strangely, "There are no other sects around here except for the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, don't you know?" ”

The woman was not surprised by his demeanor: "What about the Ten Thousand Swords Gate?" Are there any mysterious sects? ”

When the vendor heard her say this, he was even more strange: "I don't know, but thousands of miles away, I have heard of the Shadow Building, are you inquiring about it?" ”

The woman hurriedly shook her head, she had heard of the Shadow Building, but it was not what she thought in her heart: "It's not to inquire about it, I want to ask if there are any other sects." ”

The vendor shook his head and looked into the distance with a wistful face: "I don't know, I heard that the people of the Holy Sword Pavilion came here a long time ago, but I haven't heard of the people of the Holy Sword Pavilion in the past twenty or thirty years. ”

Hearing the vendor's words, the woman thought in her heart, 'Holy Sword Pavilion?', and then shook her head, knowing that she couldn't ask for any other news, she also began to eat noodles slowly.

A hundred miles away from here, there is a market town, although it is early in the morning, but at this time the flow of people in the market town is obviously a lot more than Nanxi Village, and there are many pedestrians in front of a three-story restaurant.

After a while, I heard the sound of carriages coming from the market town, and I saw that those crowds got out of the way one after another, and one of them was slow, and was quickly pulled away by his companions: "You don't want to die, don't you know that this 'Baixiang Building' is opened by the Han family?" ”

The companion was also a little embarrassed, and bowed his hand to his friend in gratitude, and whispered: "Thank you, I was just curious about who could let the Han Palace housekeeper personally drive the car, and I forgot to dodge for a while." ”
