More than ten days later, the shopkeeper really said the same thing, and drove Chen Jing and Cui Ying off the boat, Chen Jing knew that as long as he paid more, he could continue to take the boat, but this dumb man didn't plan to swallow it hard, and pulled the bad Cui Niu on the road.

Di Xun got off the boat as early as three days ago, and laughed at himself for being "shy in his pocket", so he just went to Lishan to try his luck to see if he could pick up the leak from the medicine picker.

Declined Chen Jing's intentional help, and said freely: "Misfortune and fortune rely on, maybe I will make a ghost and a god this time to hit the luck, see you in the future, I think it will be a lot of talk." ”

"With people, you have to ask for informality. With heaven and earth, just seek to be unrestrained. ”

Chen Jing finished chanting this sentence in his heart and beckoned Cui Ying to go on the road.

There are only two ferries from the end of the Linfeng River, and they can pass in four or five days at most, and they can't be angry with the steward.

From the moment the two of them got off the boat, they had left the boundary of Lishan Mountain, not looking behind, the other three directions were almost uncovered, almost a flat river, some low and small soil slopes were raised, and a few steps could be crossed, the original lush greenery on both sides of the riverbank, after leaving the boundary of Lishan Mountain, it was difficult to see a piece of wood, and occasionally a crooked neck tree struggled to grow on the riverbank.

Cui Niu's laziness was seen by Chen Jing, since she went out, she has been fishing for three days and drying nets for two days, not to mention meditation now, even boxing skills are lazy and perfunctory.

Taking advantage of the free time at dusk, Chen Jingyu sword in front, let Cui Ying pretend to be the enemy, only allowed to defend, not to attack, not to stand in place all the time, not to run around, not to withdraw from the three zhang.

It seems that Cui Ying has suffered a lot, but Chen Jing can't say it.

The mind is attached to the sword body, whenever Cui Ying's fist falls on the sword body, it is equivalent to beating Chen Jing's mind, and then the mind has signs of dissipation, and the sword body becomes condensed.

In the end, Cui Ying's arms had a lot of skin trauma, some of which were deep and bone-seeing, but fortunately, the blades were sharp, mostly as narrow as willow leaves, compared to the methods of Old Man Dong when he was a child, they were not worth a day, and they would be healed in a few days.

Chen Jing helped her bandage it briefly, and Cui Ying said with a smile: "Xiaojing, don't care elsewhere, if you accidentally tie my waist, let's say okay, one waist for two daughters-in-law." ”

Chen Jing scolded her, "The two waists are gone, you are just a eunuch who is alive, what's the use of finding you more daughters-in-law?" ”

Cui Ying shook her head, "You don't understand this, maybe I will live a more nourishing life, you don't know, as long as I ......"

Chen Jing interrupted her, "Shut up, I don't want to hear it!" ”

Cui Ying knocked on the back of her hand and said bitterly: "You are too boring, the night is long, you have to find something interesting to say." ”

Chen Jing glanced at her, "Then let's go at night?" ”

Cui Ying lay down directly and left a sentence, "When I didn't say anything." ”

Along the way, every day of confrontation, although after each time, the mind is exhausted, but fortunately, it is more and more tenacious, and the mind is more and more light when thinking about the sword.

If it is said that when the earliest sword was controlled, the idea was like a rough and heavy chain to pull the sword body, and later it was skilled, it was still as heavy as a rope, and now it is probably a hemp rope or the like, as for whether it will be as thin as silk in the future, step by step, step by step, step by step, there will always be that day.

I have to say that Cui Ying is a rough and thick-skinned bastard, the old injury is not good, and when the new injury is added, the old injury is almost healed, Chen Jing is still worried about her, Cui Ying herself is like an animal, she should eat and sleep, sleep on the ground with a naked wound, roll back and forth dishonestly, wake up the next day and pat her arm, swing at Chen Jingxian, the scab began to fall off, and it was almost healed.

She is as strong as an ox, and they all underestimate her.

When the two of them reached the end of the Linfeng River on the seventh day, the last ferry crossing was not here, the water depth here was too shallow, and they could only support some flat boats, and then go down to some places, and the water of the river flowed into countless streams, until the water was insufficient and the water flowed into the ground.

Looking ahead, you can vaguely see the Spirit Sect built on the mountain, but it is only a side view, and the height of the building is its own peak.

Almost next to the north sky of the Spirit Control Sect, a dark cloud swirled, condensed but not dispersed, and the sound of thunder could be faintly heard, and the dark cloud should be the famous ancient battlefield.

"Let's pay a visit to the Spirit Control Sect?" Cui Ying proposed.

"Forget it. What qualifications do we have to visit? ”

Cui Ying dug out a piece of snot, flicked it with his hand, and said stupidly: "The Spirit Control Sect is not a giant of the Immortal Gate, and the two of us are also young and promising, maybe we can go in and sit down with this point." ”

Chen Jing ignored it.

Cui Ying hugged her arms and said miserably: "I've been accompanying you to practice swords for the past few days, let alone bleeding dozens of taels, don't you pity me?" You've got to buy me some tonics and come back, my little arms and legs can't help you chopping back and forth. ”

Chen Jing stared at her and said, "Tell me clearly, is it to buy food or tonic?" ”

Cui Ying shouted, "Of course it is...... Buy both. ”

Chen Jing scolded: "Foodie." ”

Scolding and scolding, Chen Jing knows that for Cui Ying, buying food is almost inseparable from buying so-called tonics, and now their bodies have been nourished by rare drugs for many years, and ordinary tonics are no longer "invisible", Cui Ying may not know much, but as long as she can eat more, she can make her feel good.

At night, the two stopped to rest in a wood, Chen Jing lit a fire, and Cui Ying set up a branch to grill fish, which is one of her few skills.

The steamed rice comes out and is sandwiched, the stir-fried vegetables can stick to the bottom of the pot, and the number of times the suckling pig is roasted by himself is relatively rare, but the inexhaustible fish in the river make Cui Ying's stupid head open up some tricks, just this hand, Cui Ying is not less in the village and friends show off.

A three-foot fish, Cui Ying caught it before leaving the water source, and it took two or three hours to go to the fire to roast it, fortunately it was not dog days, otherwise it would have smelled early.

Cui Ying looked at the color, sniffed affectionately, and boasted: "My hand can be called a grandmaster." ”

Chen Jing turned his head to look away.

Cui Ying stared at the grilled fish and said, "Wild boars, leopards or jackals." ”

Chen Jing didn't care and said: "There are a few people peeping, don't worry about it, this place is not far from the Spirit Control Sect, dare to make things wanton, it belongs to Tai Sui's head to break ground and take the way of death." ”

Cui Ying glanced around, "As long as I don't touch my grilled fish, just mix a few words, I will admit it." ”

After the fish was grilled, it was divided into two, with the head of the fish going to Cui Ying on one side and the tail on the other side given to Chen Jing.

Cui Ying would pick out the fish bones and chew them slowly at first, but after a while, she became impatient, and swallowed them after chewing two bites with some fish bones.

Chen Jingsi has a lot of words, and after tasting the fish, he quipped: "Old man Dong deals with fish, steaming, stewing, frying, and frying, but he has never seen grilled fish, but if he has tasted your craftsmanship, he should also praise it." ”

Cui Ying said a little shamelessly: "Just boasting? As far as our craft is concerned, after the old man tastes it, he may cry bitterly, toss and turn, and maybe he will worship me as a teacher. ”

Chen Jing teased her and said: "That is, far away, you have a bad mouth, and at home, you are worthy of beating your back and rubbing your shoulders." ”

Cui Ying laughed out loud when she heard this, her thick skin was disgusting, Chen Jing smashed the fishtail over, and after being caught by Cui Ying with one hand, he threw it casually and nailed it to the trunk of a tree a few feet away.

A hand was quickly stretched out from the bushes next to him, stretched out and retracted, and the fishtail disappeared.

"It smells good, it smells good."

"It's just that there's too little meat."

"Don't eat it!"

"The surname is Yu, why!"

"Be quiet."

"Lao Tzu hasn't eaten meat for more than ten days, so I must open meat today."

"If you're not afraid of poisoning, you can eat!"

"It's not poisonous, don't worry." Cui Ying said as she stood beside them.

"Woo" Several frightened people got together and took out the "weapon" in their hands and pointed at Cui Ying.

"Why don't you see your parents?" After Chen Jing saw the stone spears in the hands of several children, he asked questions hesitantly.

The children hurriedly turned their spearheads again, and the two big men, like giants, surrounded them on the right and left, and the children ran away without answering, and began to confront each other.

Chen Jing looked at it for a long time, the faces of the five children were pitch black, it should be deliberately smeared with grass and wood ashes and the like, through the light of the fire, he saw that they were all wearing straw sandals, half cloth clothes, half animal clothes, and their bodies were so thin that everyone had a big head.

Chen Jing's mood fluctuated a little, and he probably guessed what happened to these children.

He asked one of the children with a hatchet, "Are you from the north?" ”

The child with the firewood knife gasped, "We didn't want to steal, so we picked up the leftovers from you." ”

Cui Ying paused, "I just heard you say 'poisonous'. ”

The boy said, "As long as you two die without poison after a moment or three, then there is no poison." ”

Chen Jing pointed to the west, "The end of the Linfeng River is at most seven or eight miles away from here, wouldn't it be better to catch fish by yourself?" ”

The boy didn't reply, but sarcasm overflowed with sarcasm.

Another child was not happy to say: "You adults don't speak in tune, a few miles is far enough for us children, what if you are carried away by wolves along the way?" ”

"Haven't tried to catch voles?"

"It's been done a long time ago."

"Didn't you want to go to the fairy house for help?"

"Have you ever been kicked in the head by a donkey? The fairy family doesn't owe us, and it's not our wild father, why help us a few wild children? ”

Another child scolded and said, "We don't dare to catch fish for miles away, and we dare to walk dozens of miles to beg for people?" You're fed and fed, and you're here to entertain us? ”

One child chimed in: "This is probably what the book says, 'Why not eat minced meat.'" ”

Unexpectedly, the other children scolded him together, "Shut up." ”

"It's not that you're cheap, we can be discovered?"

Cui Ying sighed: "This temper is big enough and wild enough, and it is the same as what I had when I was a child." ”

There were a few gurgling and hungry screams, and a child lowered his head in shame, as if he was infected, and several children behind him rebelled one after another.

Cui Ying saw that these children gritted their teeth and continued to insist, and one of the children began to tremble in his legs, sighed, stopped joking, handed over the remaining fish and said, "It's not poisonous, take it and eat it." ”

Several children shook their heads.

Cui Ying took the fish and pushed it to them.

A few children stepped back.

Push again.

Retreat.

"Plop", a child falls.

"Xiaohua, get up quickly, you can't sit down, I'll dig over the stones and find some insects to eat later, it's really not good, the bark will be at once, if you can't sit down, you won't be able to get up."

The hungry chest of the child who fell to the ground was pressed against his back, and it seemed that he had exhausted his strength just by panting, and he was still about to slide down when he was helped up.

Cui Ying couldn't stand it, and planned to break the mouths of these little wolf cubs and force them to swallow them, which was better than watching them starve to death.

Chen Jing snatched the fish meat from Cui Ying's hand, pushed her aside, and said indifferently to the group of children: "She's going to starve to death." ”

The child with the firewood knife is probably the head of the child, and scolds, "Let your mother's fart!" ”

Chen Jing was not annoyed, but was so angry by Cui Ying, who had always wanted to grab the grilled fish, that he slapped him on the head.

Cui Yingleng paused for a moment and understood, Xiaojing has a way, since this is the case, it would be good to squat on the ground and watch the play.

Chen Jing handed out the fish and said indifferently: "Since starvation is death, poisoning is also death, it is better to choose a way to die." ”

The child named Xiaohua struggled, returned to the light, and said to the child with the firewood knife: "Brother Bao, I am not afraid of poisoning, as long as I eat it in my stomach, I will admit it immediately, I don't want to be awakened by hunger every day, I don't want to catch insects and chew grass roots every day, I don't want to starve anymore, I don't want to ...... anymore"

Several children gathered in a heap, and they didn't even have much strength left to cry, and they hoarsely shed two lines of cloudy tears across their faces.

Chen Jing walked over, lifted the child in his arms with one hand, it was much lighter than expected, these children were thinner than the other, not to mention the age, both men and women relied on guessing.

Cui Ying's mouth was cheap again, and seeing that the remaining children hadn't left, she said cheaply: "What's the matter, when my brother died, I would bury it for the last send-off?" ”

Several children ignored her, all of them stared at the child in Chen Jing's arms.

Chen Jing sat down and asked Cui Niu to come over to help pick the fish bones, not daring to let the child's weak stomach deal with the fish bones, don't pay attention to it, the fish bones stuck in the throat, let these children mistakenly think that the fish is not poisonous, but people are vicious.

When Cui Ying was rarely careful, she first drove the fish meat off the fish bones, pinched it back and forth a few times, and after she didn't see the fish bones, she kneaded it into a small ball and sent it to the child's mouth.

Xiaohua completely gave up her life, and the comer did not refuse, and after eating a bite of fish, it was like a little beast licking Cui Ying's fingers.

Chen Jing looked at the child in his arms and touched the scene, and said to himself: "When I was your age, my hometown also suffered a disaster, and it was better than you, of course, it was only a few years ago, and then there was no water, and I couldn't harvest anything in the field, I relied on the dried sweet potatoes stored at home to hang my life, and I usually took it out and licked it a few bites, not hungry to the point of dazzle, I didn't dare to chew and eat it to the stomach, every time I was hungry, I went to the urn to fill my stomach with water, I couldn't hold it, I broke the dried sweet potatoes, and then wrapped them in a layer of mud, and we ...... the stomach together."

Two adults, a few children, one speaks, several listens.

There will always be some people in the world who turn a blind eye to the suffering of others, and there will be some people who can empathize with their suffering.

The child in Chen Jing's arms was already asleep, and handed it to the only young man who was holding the firewood knife that was not asleep, and the crumbling young man gritted his teeth and put Xiaohua on the ground steadily, and after probing his snort, he really put his mind at ease.

looked back at Chen Jing and Cui Ying in a daze, and said, "You are good people." ”
