Episode 24: A warm family
Outside the courtyard wall of the City Lord's Mansion was a flat and open meadow, and Wei Yang was running forward in the moonlight with the figure of the old man on his back, and the pursuers behind were getting closer and closer to them with torches.
"Stop, you can't run away." One of the captain of the guards shouted loudly.
From the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, a team of guards on fast horses quickly stopped in front of the open field, blocking the way of Wei Yang and the others, sandwiching the enemy in front and back, trapping them in the grass.
"What now? Grandfather. Wei Yang asked anxiously.
"Think for yourself, you can use all the means you can to escape, don't always be dependent, and face everything yourself." The old man did not answer Wei Yang directly, but let him think and face it for himself.
In the middle of the night, a strong wind blew, a dark cloud obscured the moonlight, and the earth was pitch black, except for the distant figures of a dozen torches swaying.
With that, Wei Yang was inspired by the old man, and he thought of the only way to escape now.
"Let's get away." Wei Yang took the beads in his mouth, and the old man and the two of them hid in the soil, and disappeared into the open grass at once.
When the dark clouds passed, and the bright moonlight sprinkled back on the earth, all the guards of the City Lord's Mansion were all stunned, where were there still human figures on the empty grass, only the evening wind rustled the weeds, and a few unknown night birds fluttered across the grass and flew into the distance.
The men and horses in the front and back met in the grass, and they all stared at each other with big eyes, not understanding how to blink an eye, and the two escaped people disappeared without a trace, and disappeared into thin air.
"Fuck, where's this guy?" A nurse looked around with a pale face, this strange scene actually made him a little uneasy, could there be a ghost?
The captain of the courtyard ordered loudly: "Now that the city gate is closed, a child and a waste man will not be able to escape, leave two people here to watch, and the others will check everywhere, and be sure to catch them." ”
All the guards left the place, leaving only the two of them to look around in the open field.
"Fuck, it looks like that little guy wasn't beaten up yesterday, if it weren't for the eldest lady's order to torture him slowly, Lao Tzu would have killed him."
"Yes, we have lost a lot of money this month, and now this little bastard has run away, and the eldest lady doesn't know how to punish us."
"If I knew this, I should have beaten this kid to death with a punch and kick yesterday."
The two guards walked and talked in the meadow.
A wave of anger welled up from Wei Yang, who was hiding in the land, and a foul mouth burst out in a low voice, fuck, these doglegs who are fighting for the tiger are too vicious, and they want to kill others at every turn.
Hearing that the two guards on the ground walked directly above him, the two of them were still chattering there complaining that they had bad luck today, and now they can't sleep in the middle of the night, and they will be punished when they go back, and they are cursing Wei Yang and the others for not dying well.
Listening to a whoosh, a black shadow emerged from the ground, standing behind the two guards, and a sudden sound in the dead of night scared the two guards into a cold sweat, they felt that something was behind them, and they looked at each other unconsciously, and their whole bodies trembled and wanted to turn their heads to take a look.
Wei Yang waited for them to turn around, and slapped his palms on the backs of the two guards, only to see the two guards fly up and fall five or six feet away, it seems that they are seriously injured if they are not dead.
Wei Yang immediately picked up the old man and disappeared into the darkness.
Jin'an City Danlou.
The Great Elder Mei Ruoting was severely reprimanding Gao Xiaoming, and Gao Xiaoming and a young alchemist stood in front of Mei Ruoting in a formal manner and were reprimanded.
"Is it so difficult for you to arrest Old Man Wei's grandson? You must know that Jin Dafu is the only person who knows the child, why was he attacked by the same dog for the second time and lost his life, it can be seen that someone didn't want Jin Dafu to recognize him and killed him, which is enough to prove the suspiciousness of the kid who helped to see a doctor in the General's Mansion, you will know that the dog must have been raised by that kid. ”
Mei Ruoting said fiercely: "Only by catching Old Man Wei's grandson is the only weight to pry his mouth open, you go again, whether that kid is Old Man Wei's grandson or not, I will also be arrested, and I dare to despise our Danlou in public, which is a capital crime." ”
"Go, don't let me down again." Ruoting put down these words and walked out of the room without looking back, leaving Gao Xiaoming and the young alchemist looking at each other.
Gao Xiaoming gritted his teeth and said: "This kid, he belittled me in public, saying that the pills I refined were rubbish, and he was taboo at the beginning that he was a celebrity in the General's Mansion, and he didn't attack him, but now that the Great Elder has spoken, hmph, catch this kid back first, Lao Tzu has to take a good breath." ”
As he spoke, he walked out of the Dan Tower with the young alchemist.
Wei Yang carried the old man back to his home and settled in his room, Xiao Xiongke was so happy, he kept sticking to Wei Yang's side and humming, as if he hadn't seen a lot to say for a few days.
The old man glanced at Xiao Xiong, and he said to Wei Yang: "Do you kid know, this guy is not an ordinary wolf dog, if I guess correctly, this guy is called Barking Heavenly Dog, and he is the descendant of the Roaring Heavenly Dog, in the beast clan, the status of the barking heavenly dog is second only to the dragon clan, and it has a supreme position in the beast clan." ”
"Hahaha, boy, you are a blessed man, this barking dog follows you, and it will be of great help to you in the future." The old man said happily.
As soon as the old man said this, Wei Yang knew why all dogs and animals were afraid of the demonic energy on their bodies, but Xiaoxiong was not afraid, and the breath on Xiaoxiong's body could also scare away other animals, which was enough to prove that Xiaoxiong was extraordinary.
Wei Yang said to the old man: "I don't mind what Xiaoxiong is, even if it is an ordinary dog, I will treat him like a family member and a brother." ”
Aunt Lin came to visit the guests with the lime that had just gotten up.
"Brother." Lime threw herself into Wei Yang's arms, and Wei Yang picked her up.
"My brother won't come back for a few days, my mother and I miss you." Lime said in a sweet and glutinous voice.
Aunt Lin said politely to the old man, "Hello." ”
The old man said to Wei Yang with emotion: "What a warm family, Wei Yang, don't you introduce me, this is your mother?" ”
Wei Yang glanced at Aunt Lin and looked at the old man without thinking
said: "Yes, this is my mother, and I am holding my sister Lime." ”
In fact, Wei Yang has long regarded Aunt Lin as his mother and Lime as his sister in his heart, so Wei Yang really calls Aunt Lin his mother from now on.
He just thinks it's so kind and warm.
Of course, Aunt Lin was also very happy and relieved that Wei Yang called her mother.
