Chapter 5: A Nerd Meets a Strange Uncle
The white-clothed scholar was looking at the Xuanyi man in front of him, and was about to open his mouth, so he clenched his fists slightly and took the first step: "I've disturbed my brother's platform." ”
"No, not at all," the white-clothed scholar replied thoughtfully, and then replied slowly, with affirmation, and said with an apologetic smile: "When my little brother is studying, even thunder can't disturb me." ”
That's a big truth.
Ning He smiled hard, and was about to say a few words of greetings and then ask if there was a doctor's whereabouts, when four or five people came over in the distance, both men and women, all of them carrying wooden barrels on their shoulders.
Rather than glancing at the clear spring not far away, you will know that someone has come here to fetch mountain spring water.
A young man rushed to the front lively, and was stunned when he saw someone, and then silently bypassed the three of them to the spring, bent down to make a bucket, and then threw the bucket to draw water, and the action was done in one go. But just as he was about to continue beating the second bucket, the white-clothed scholar rushed forward and held him down, shouting: "Can't fight, can't fight." ”
His actions were abrupt, and he didn't expect to be bitter, isn't this mountain spring water for the villagers under the mountain to drink every day?
"Let go, why can't you fight?" Although the boy was young, the child who grew up in the village family had been chopping wood and carrying water since he was a child, and he had great strength.
With a slight pull and push, he pushed the white-clothed scholar straight back, and he was about to fall on his back and face the sky.
Sui Xiaowu stretched out his hand to protect, but it was difficult to save the fire from far away. I saw that as soon as Ning He stretched out his hand slightly, he grabbed the scholar's long sleeves, pulled it aside, and then spun it around for a week, and the scholar barely stood firm.
"Hey, you kid is so unreasonable, why do you start beating people when you don't agree with each other?" Xiao Wu asked angrily, but fortunately his fist didn't fly out easily this time.
"Who is unreasonable, he is unreasonable, and he is not even allowed to fight the mountain spring water, why?" The boy also asked angrily.
Xiao Wu: "......"
Xiao Wu retorted with a black face: "My son-in-law said that he would not be beaten, but he would not be beaten, and he would be right to listen to him." After saying that, he stood by the spring, opened his arms, and prepared to block people with his body, and express his heart to defend his master with practical actions.
Ning He looked at him meaningfully, this kid looked shy and shy on the surface, and he didn't like to talk too much.
But when it comes to his master, he takes on a multifaceted personality that is the exact opposite of his appearance.
It can be hot, it can be stubborn, or it can be completely unreasonable.
What a funny person!
Hehe! This kid managed to get Ning Heku's attention.
As he thought about it, the room had already become a pot of porridge.
"Why! Do you say that if you don't let you fight, you won't fight! ”
"This is mountain spring water, the source of drinking water for the villagers of our Nanxi Village, do you know?"
"Childe, you are just passing by here, if you want to drink water, quench your thirst and get on the road as soon as possible, don't be idle and bored to hinder us, are we all busy?"
"That is, scholars should abide by the law and etiquette, how can they make trouble here for no reason and make fun of our little people?"
The young man and the four people who came were gossiping, some angrily asking questions, and some politely mocking.
Xiao Wu was choked by these many rhetorical questions, and pouted aggrievedly and looked at his master, seeking to solve the siege.
Ning Hequan was also waiting for him to come up with a reasonable answer.
"The situation is yes, it is like this," the white-clothed scholar was pushed around and around again and again before he stood firm, his head was still dizzy, and he was trying to adjust his state, trying to explain the reason.
Rewind time to two hours ago—
In the glimmer of the morning light, two blurred black shadows appeared on the mountain road.
One of the young men who looked like a scholar took the lead, and from time to time turned around and urged his companions: "Xiao Wu, go faster!" It's too late to go to the top of the mountain to see the sunrise. ”
It turned out that the two of them got up early to rush to the top of the mountain to watch the sunrise.
It should be his entourage who was called Xiao Wu, and he responded softly: "Don't worry, Childe, it's too late." ”
Just as the two of them walked into the path between the mountains in the forest, a tall black shadow suddenly appeared, and then two big hands tightly grasped the scholar's shoulders.
The incident happened suddenly, and the scholar was so frightened that he forgot to call, but Xiao Wu shouted, "Get out, don't touch my son-in-law." ”
He spoke impulsively and acted quickly, and as he spoke, his hands stretched out, trying to grasp the dark shadow.
However, the former suddenly picked up the scholar and turned around, and after the figure flashed, it was also two feet away.
"When you're young, how can you be so irritable and don't learn well! Be careful that I spank you. The dark shadow spoke in pain, as if he was educating his own juniors.
"You ......" Xiao Wu was angry.
With a faint light, the scholar could see the dark shadow in front of him clearly.
The man was in his thirties, coarse linen with a tight belt, broad shoulders, thin waist and long arms, half a tiger skin tied to his right shoulder, and a long bow on his back. He was looking at himself with a smile, "Little brother, can you please do me a favor?" ”
As soon as the title of "little brother" came out, the scholar couldn't help but shiver, he misplaced his teeth and trembled, "Help? Okay! ”
While agreeing, he didn't forget to stretch out his hand to stop his entourage, "Xiao Wu, don't do it, this brother just wants to ask us for a favor." ”
Without waiting for Xiao Wu to answer, the black shadow smiled coldly, "What kind of brother, call uncle." No, it should be called uncle. ”
Scholar: "......" This person is so strange, he calls me my little brother, but I asked me to call him "uncle", so the order of the young and the young is not chaotic.
The scholar looked at the looming and young and heroic face, and after a long time, he finally shouted, "Uncle~, what do you want me to help you?" ”
"Hey! Good boy! The hunter replied happily, and almost touched the top of the scholar's head.
Xiao Wu pouted and glanced at him.
"Come on, little brother come with me." Like a child, the hunter took the scholar's hand and came to a spring in the forest, pointed to the sparkling spring, his expression changed abruptly, and said solemnly: "You just watch here, if anyone comes here to get water, no one is allowed!" Remember? ”
"Remember, big ~ uncle!" The scholar hesitated for a moment, and then boldly asked, "But why can't you let people come to fetch water?" ”
The hunter glared at him, word by word, "Just now, there is a man, he washed his hands and drank water in this spring, and I can't stop him, because of this!" Got it? ”
"I still don't understand!" The scholar shook his head, but he was even more confused.
"Alas! Stupid boy, isn't it stupid to read! The hunter almost knocked on the scholar's head, his hand stopped in mid-air and sighed, "As for the man, he is a patient, or a serious patient carrying the plague, do you understand?" ”
"I seem to understand a little!" The scholar still didn't seem to understand, and the hunter didn't bother to pay attention to him anymore, so he turned around and melted into the darkness, leaving a commanding voice, "Guard, be sure to wait for me to come back." ”
