Chapter 5: The Cave

Time passed little by little, Ming Xuan sat on the ground weakly, his eyes looked dull for a long time under the illumination of the moonlight, physically and mentally exhausted, as if the whole person was tired and listless.

Ming Xuan stared at the courtyard door in a daze, hoping that the courtyard door would be pushed open, hoping that Mingya would not disappear, but would go out to find herself, but this kind of thing was very small, after all, as long as Mingxuan went out in the past, Mingya basically would not go out to look for it, but would only sit on the steps and wait for Mingxuan to come back.

Ming Xuan's eyes moved to the sugar gourd at the door of the house, his eyes were red, and tears flowed down unconsciously.

……

Xiao Jingrui walked for a long time, walked through the woods, and came to a cave, which was not big or small, three meters high.

Xiao Jingrui observed, and didn't know whose lair this cave would be, and he didn't dare to trespass easily, but it was getting late, the weather was getting colder, and now he couldn't find another place to stay.

I had to gamble, bet that there were no demon beasts in this cave, raise my vigilance, and step into the cave, which was dim and empty, and the moonlight could not shine into the cave at all, so I had to walk inside in the dark.

The inside is quiet and a little infiltrating, walking and walking, it seems to feel cold, sneezed, Xiao Jingrui took off the silver white wine pot on his waist, drank a big sip, warmed his body, the more he went inside, the lower the temperature, but compared to the temperature outside, the temperature here Xiao Jingrui can barely resist one or two, and I don't know where he went, I feel that I have walked for a long time, and I have not yet reached the end of the cave, I think about how big this cave is, it feels like a bottomless pit.

Suddenly, a pair of blood-red eyes appeared not far away, staring at Xiao Jingrui, with a ferocious fierceness in his eyes, like a bloodthirsty beast.

Xiao Jingrui also noticed it, slowly stopped, and looked at each other with blood-red eyes, both of them were not inferior to each other, and the aura emanating from blood-red eyes was like a top predator.

Xiao Jingrui didn't have a look of fear in his eyes, just smiled contemptuously, and said in a good voice.

"I don't want to offend tonight, I just want to borrow one night, and I'll leave tomorrow, see if it's okay!"

As if it understood, the monster roared to drive away outsiders.

Although Xiao Jingrui couldn't see the appearance of the demon beast clearly, he could tell from its roar just now that it was a blind bear, and it was very brutal and bloodthirsty, but its realm cultivation was not profound, which was also for Xiao Jingrui.

Xiao Jingrui saw that it was not enterprising, nor was it negotiating, a sword intent emanated from the body, covering the entire cave, a silver-white long sword leaped out of the wine jug, Xiao Jingrui held the silver-white long sword, and sneered.

"I just wanted to live in peace with you, but if you don't want to make progress, then don't blame me for being ruthless."

The blind bear also sensed the extremely strong sword intent he released, and he also took a few steps back, a little afraid, and didn't dare to squeak again.

Xiao Jingrui didn't make a move immediately, after all, this is its territory, and there is no reason to make a move, today is just to borrow it for one night, if it insists on not being willing to receive it. Xiao Jingrui will not be reluctant, the words he just said are just to scare and scare it, so as to deter it from compromise.

Time passed little by little, Xiao Jingrui didn't wait for a reply, and shouted again.

"If you don't reply, I'll assume that you agree, and when the time comes, don't kick me out."

The time for a cup of tea had passed, and there was no reply, so Xiao Jingrui tacitly agreed, put away the silver-white sword, and walked inside.

The blind bear glanced at Xiao Jingrui from time to time, and there was no longer the majesty of the predator in his eyes, and his momentum had dropped a lot.

Xiao Jingrui walked to a meter away from the blind bear and sat down, with his back against the stone wall, and would look at the blind bear from time to time, for fear that it would make a sudden sneak attack.

The blind bear saw that he had been looking at himself, and his eyes were innocently dodging, not daring to look directly.

Xiao Jingrui could see from his reaction that he should be scared, and he also comforted.

"Don't be so nervous, I won't hurt you, I'm just borrowing for one night and treating me as air!"

The blind bear let out a few low roars, then closed his eyes.

Xiao Jingrui didn't bother it anymore, and also closed his eyes, but his vigilance was not completely let go, after all, he didn't dare to relax his vigilance easily for this bloodthirsty bear blind man.

……

Ming Xuan had fallen asleep in a daze, and there were still tears in the corners of his eyes.

In the bluestone town, the first floor of a restaurant on Fulu Road is basically full of people, and it is very lively, but there is only a burly man sitting on the second floor of the restaurant, which seems a little secluded, the burly man is full of stubble, he looks fierce and vicious, his eyes are full of ruthlessness, and there is a big knife on the bench next to him, and the burly man gulps down the wine.

An emaciated man in white walked into the inn and did not stay too long on the first floor, but went straight to the second floor.

Seeing this, the second junior of the restaurant hurriedly stepped forward to block the way of the man in white and reminded.

"This guest officer, you can't go to the second floor, but you still have it on the first floor!"

The man in white's eyes narrowed slightly, a touch of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, without saying a word, he grabbed Xiao Er's neck, and before Xiao Er struggled, the man in white twisted his hand suddenly, and a crunchy sound came from Xiao Er's neck, blood flowed from the corner of Xiao Er's mouth, and his breath was broken.

The man in white smiled disdainfully, threw Xiao Er in his hand aside, didn't care about the eyes and discussions of others, and walked to the second floor by himself.

The first floor of the hotel was very loud, and some people were frightened and ran outside the restaurant, and there were also people who were not afraid of death, and they didn't pay attention to this kind of thing, and still ate without scruples, drank wine, and laughed.

The shopkeeper of the restaurant didn't dare to squeak, so he had to ask someone to carry Xiao Er's body down, sighed helplessly, and instructed the people below to tell Xiao Er's family, and gave some money, which can also maintain his family's life for a long time.

The man in white walked up to the second floor, looked at the burly man's strong back, and grinned.

"Dare to ask...... Are you the five of madness? ”

Mad Five turned his head to look at the man in white behind him and said contemptuously.

"What are you looking for me!"

The man in white introduced himself and said.

"Below, Mu Qingsong."

A trace of murderous intent flashed in the eyes of the mad five, and he said impatiently.

"If you have something to say, if you have nothing to do, you will go to see Lord Yama."

Mu Qingsong did not look afraid, and said with a smile on his face.

"If it's okay, it won't come to you."

Mad Five was impatient, burst into a foul mouth, held the big knife in his left hand, slapped his right hand on the table with a palm and stood up, the desktop collapsed instantly, Mad Five raised the big knife in his hand and pointed at Mu Qingsong, his eyes were full of anger.

"You talk a lot of nonsense, if I wasn't in a good mood today, you would have gone to hell."

Even if the crazy five were like this, Mu Qingsong still didn't have fear in his eyes, and he didn't care about anything, but took out a bag of silver taels from his pocket, threw it in his hand, and then threw it at the crazy five, and said in a cold tone.

"Come here today, please help me kill someone."

"Next time you come to me to do something, don't talk so much nonsense, I don't have so much patience to listen to your nonsense every day."

Mad Five put down the big knife, took the money bag, and also threw it in his hand, but without opening the money bag to make sure, he put it in his pocket and asked.

"Who are you going to kill?"

Mu Qingsong said indifferently: "Mu Zhiyan." ”

The Mad Five didn't know who Mu Zhiyan was, and he wasn't interested in knowing, anyway, in the eyes of the Mad Five, no matter who it was, he would die under his own knife.

"Where's the location?"

Mu Qingsong took out a portrait from his sleeve and handed it to Mad Five.

"She's coming here tomorrow to visit someone, you can intercept her tomorrow!"

Mad Five took the portrait, opened it, looked at it, and closed it.

"Wait for my news tomorrow."

With that, the Mad Five walked towards the stairs.

The corners of Mu Qingsong's mouth rose slightly, revealing a weird smile.

The people on the first floor of the restaurant saw the mad five come down, and instantly quieted down, no one dared to squeak anymore, and they didn't even have the courage to look at him, their eyes dodged, and they were afraid in their hearts.

At that time, more than a dozen wolves gathered outside the cave, and none of them dared to approach the cave, but roared outside, as if provoking the blind bear who lived in the cave.

"Woo~Woo~"

The sound of wolves came into Xiao Jingrui's ears, and he didn't pay attention to it, but their unrelenting roar, the noisy Xiao Jingrui really couldn't sleep, opened his eyes, his expression was ruthless, and the silver-white sword stood out from the wine jug, like an arrow flying to the wolves outside the cave.

The silver-white sword pierced the body of one wolf, and the other wolves saw that it was not good, and began to flee into the depths of the woods.

Xiao Jingrui was a warning this time, and he didn't kill them all, if those wolves dared to come back, Xiao Jingrui wouldn't be merciful, the silver-white sword returned to the wine jug, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.

The bear blind man seems to have been used to it, and did not open his eyes, on weekdays, these wolves do not come to provoke the bear blind, when the bear blind man is in high spirits, he will also roar and chase out and theorize with them, but they are too cunning, when they see the bear blind man come out, they will run away, the bear blind man is helpless, so he has no choice but to go back, after going back, they will run back again, continue to roar and provoke, back and forth several times, the bear blind man's sharp spirit has also been exhausted, fortunately ignore it.

Xiao Jingrui felt the cold, curled up together, still unable to retain the temperature, opened his eyes, exhaled a breath of heat, looked at the blind bear in the distance, moved his body over, hugged the fluffy thighs of the blind bear, closed his eyes, and the temperature soared instantly.

The blind bear was frightened by his action, and woke up in fright, and looked at Xiao Jingrui vigilantly.

Xiao Jingrui patted the blind bear's thigh and said lazily.

"It's too cold, borrow your thighs and pay you back tomorrow."

The blind bear didn't mind, closed his eyes, and shared the bed with Xiao Jingrui.

In the early morning, before the rooster crowed, Xiao Jingrui got up early, said goodbye to the blind bear, and continued to hurry.

The blind bear followed him to the entrance of the cave and watched Xiao Jingrui leave, until Xiao Jingrui's figure disappeared, and the blind bear continued to return to the cave.

A ray of sunlight in the early morning shone on Ming Xuan's body, Ming Xuan opened his eyes in a daze, some of them couldn't open their eyes when they were irradiated by the sun, their eyes were a little red and swollen, and the first time they got up, they scanned all corners of the house to find Ming Ya, but the house was empty, and there was nothing.

Ming Xuan ran out of the old house, because many people had fallen asleep last night, they didn't dare to knock on the door to disturb, so they had to wait until this morning, and asked door to door, and the neighbors in the vicinity all asked, but everyone's answer was the same, they had never seen it.

Ming Xuan was disheartened and walked towards his old house in a sluggish manner.

A young girl in the old house next door looked at Ming Xuan through the crack in the courtyard door.

Ming Xuan glanced at the courtyard gate next door, and found that the courtyard door was open a little, and he also saw a clear eye, Ming Xuan smiled at the little girl, and smiled very reluctantly.

The little girl asked cautiously.

"Brother Xiaoxuan, what's wrong with you, how do you look at your sad face."

Ming Xuan forced a smile and said, "I lost Xiaoya." ”

The little girl scratched her head, as if she was remembering something, as if she had thought of something, and said apologetically.

"Last night I saw Sister Xiaoya sitting outside the door and fell asleep, presumably she was waiting for you to come back, I was afraid that she would catch a cold, so I asked her to come to my house to sleep, I also fell asleep last night, I forgot to tell you, sorry."

Hearing this, Ming Xuan was overjoyed, ran to the little girl, and asked with a smile.

"It's okay, is she awake?"

The little girl's expression was a little unnatural, and she thought back and forth, and did not hide anything, and told everything.

"She woke up a long time ago, but when she just walked out of my yard, she was taken away by an older sister."

When Ming Xuan heard this, he was obviously panicked, his mood was like a roller coaster, ups and downs, Ming Xuan suppressed the emotions in his heart, the little girl was very timid, afraid of scaring the little girl in front of her, her voice was very low, and she asked.

"Do you know who that sister is?"

The little girl shook her head and said, "Sister Xiaoya seems to know that sister, when Sister Xiaoya saw her, she was full of smiles, as if she was very happy, and ...... Sister Xiaoya volunteered to go with her, Brother Xiaoxuan, don't worry too much. ”

Since it is someone Mingya knows, he will not hurt her, and Mingya will not be in danger, the worries in Mingxuan's heart have subsided a lot, and he is not so worried, he breathed a sigh of relief, and asked with concern.

"Xiaoya, I didn't bother you!"

The little girl shook her head and said.

"Last night, my father didn't come back, so I dared to bring Sister Xiaoya home."

Ming Xuan instructed: "Don't do such a risky thing next time, you have to put yourself first in everything." ”

The little girl smiled and nodded.

"My dad should be coming back soon, I can't talk to you more."

With that, the little girl closed the courtyard door and ran back into the house.

Ming Xuan stared at the courtyard door of her house for a while, then returned to his old house, he hadn't eaten for a day and a night, his stomach was really a little hungry, looking at the baked cakes that had been on the ground for two days, he couldn't care so much, he picked it up and stuffed it into his mouth, even if it had changed its taste, he didn't spit it out, but swallowed it hard. Because I didn't have a good rest last night, I was afraid that I wouldn't do my best to herd the cows in the afternoon, so I simply lay on the straw mat to make up for sleep.
