Chapter 27: Forced Marriage

Wu Baoshou said angrily, sitting on the side and staring, looking at Qiao Zhengyu.

"Grandpa, why are you here again. There was blame in her tone, and her cheeks were flushed on the side, and she lowered her head in embarrassment.

Wu Baoshou ignored it and said, "Lingque'er, it's not grandpa who makes his own decisions, you have grown so big, you should think about yourself." Otherwise, like grandpa, stay in this valley for the rest of your life? It's easy for someone to come here, and I think it's also a marriage given by God, otherwise why not have a woman. ”

He looks like he is fifty or sixty years old, but he speaks with a relaxed and humorous voice, and even Qiao Zhengyu couldn't help but smile when he heard it.

"But, seniors, this marriage event is about feelings, if you force two people who have no feelings together, you won't be happy in the future. Besides, I'm much older than her, so that's not appropriate. Qiao Zhengyu told the truth, but he also made sense.

Wu Baoshou frowned: "This 。。。。。。 I don't care, this marriage is decided, otherwise, you don't want to go out of this valley. Hum. With a flick of his hand, he left in a huff, leaving only Qiao Zhengyu and Lingque in the room.

"Miss Wu, it's not that I'm hard-hearted, in fact, I've long been 。。。。。。 Qiao Zhengyu wanted to explain to Lingque'er, but she had already interrupted her: "Don't be surprised, Childe, grandpa is like this, and it will be fine after a while." If there is something to offend just now, please don't go to your heart. Not only was she angry, but she also apologized to Qiao Zhengyu in turn.

"Well, Miss Wu is not only outstanding in appearance, but also kind-hearted, and she is indeed a good woman. Qiao Zhengyu saw it in his eyes and nodded again and again.

"Well。。。。。。 Well, it's the first time I've met such a weirdo. Oh no, that's wrong, I mean, your grandfather was a very funny guy, and how could I blame such a person. Qiao Zhengyu smiled a little embarrassed.

"Oh, yes, that's good. The sparrow smiled too, but it was obviously a little unnatural.

The two of them stopped talking, both meditating, and for a while the room was much quieter.

After a while, I only heard Lingque'er say, "Young Master Qiao, what are you thinking, do you want to leave here?"

Qiao Zhengyu was told that she was thinking, and nodded: "Well, Sister Lingque is really smart, and she can see my thoughts at a glance." After walking a few steps, he turned back and said: "Although the environment here is beautiful and the scenery is pleasant, I can't stay here because I still have a lot of things to do, otherwise, I am afraid that the consequences will be unimaginable." ”

Lingque'er heard what he said, and said suspiciously: "Oh, isn't it that Gongzi is in a hurry to save people? When I found you, you suffered internal injuries on your body, and at a glance, you knew that it was a martial arts master, and it seems that you met that strange person." ”

Qiao Zhengyu let out a "huh" and said, "Listen to Sister Lingque, you seem to have seen that person?"

Lingqueer shook her head and said, "No, but I heard my grandfather say that there is a strange man on the other side of the mountain." Not only did that man behave strangely, but he was also strong in martial arts. It's sparsely populated, and people don't usually come here, so I guess it's the weirdo who's doing it. ”

Qiao Zhengyu lowered his head and was silent, thought for a while, and then said, "What did you mean when you said that the strange man was on the other side of the mountain, could it be that this valley is divided into two?"

Lingque'er nodded and said: "Well, Gongzi is right, there are indeed two places in this valley, one is the Valley of the Immortals, and the other is the Valley of the Wicked, and the two are separated from each other and form a big mountain.

Qiao Zhengyu became more and more confused when he heard this, and wondered: "It's so strange, since they are next door, why can't I see them?"

Lingque'er smiled again and said: "The terrain of this mountain is treacherous, unclimbable, from bottom to top, like a sword, the top is wide at the bottom, so it is called 'Giant Sword Mountain'." And the Valley of the Immortals and the Valley of the Wicked are like the blades of a sword, occupying both sides of the mountain, bounded by the tip of the mountain, separated from each other, each in one place.

In other words, the only way to connect the two places is at the top of the mountain, and at the top of the mountain is a waterfall that ordinary people can't pass through. The strange man screamed horrible every night, so we could guess even though we didn't know what was going on on the other side. That day, I saw you unconscious by the lake, and I thought that you had come here by going down the mountain side, and now you want to go back, of course, to save people. ”

Qiao Zhengyu couldn't help but admire her when she saw that she was analyzing, and said: "Miss Wu is young, I can't imagine that she has such a mind, it seems that I, Qiao Zhengyu, look down on you." ”

Lingque'er smiled slightly, and said, "It's nothing, Gongzi has been here for a few days, he must miss his family very much, and it is normal for him to have the idea of going home." ”

"Well, it's not only gentle but also very considerate. Qiao Zhengyu suddenly remembered Xia Wenli in his heart, and suddenly felt a sense of intimacy.

Walking to the window, looking out, but seeing the pastoral meadow, the fragrance of flowers and birds, and countless beautiful scenery, I couldn't help but feel emotional, and said to myself: "I don't know what happened to Wen Li?"

Since he came to the game inexplicably, he thought it was strange and interesting at first, but as the days passed, Xia Wenli's figure appeared in his mind all the time. Thinking of her voice, of all that she was, and that feeling grew by the day. This feeling is especially strong when a person is quiet.

"Who is Wen Li? A very nice name, Childe seems to be deeply touched, does he think of someone again?" said Lingque'er softly beside her.

Qiao Zhengyu hesitated for a while, and said, "It's nothing, oh, by the way, I heard Miss Wu say just now that the only exit from the valley is at the top of the mountain, does it mean that I can get out from there?"

Lingque'er didn't speak, walked a few steps, and said, "The theory is so, but think about it, how is your martial arts better than that weird man?

"Well, it seems to be the case, that fire foreman Tuo's martial arts are very high, if he wanted to go anywhere, he would have gone a long time ago, but why didn't he take a step into the Immortal Valley?" Qiao Zhengyu nodded in his heart, only to feel that things were difficult to do.

After thinking for a moment, he said: "Then what should I do, I can't stay here for the rest of my life, there is not even a normal person here, if I want to live here, then I might as well die." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly said: "Miss Wu, I don't mean anything else, don't misunderstand." He slapped himself a few times with both hands, only blaming himself for talking nonsense.

"Poof. Lingque'er smiled and said, "Childe doesn't have to be polite, you are also telling the truth, I can understand." In fact, it is not hopeless to get out of the Valley of the Immortals, because I heard my grandfather say that there is actually a way out of this valley, and if Childe insists on going down the mountain, I am afraid that he will have to beg my grandfather. ”

"Ah, please, grandpa?" Qiao Zhengyu shook his head as his head swelled.

"You know, your grandfather is 。。。。。。 So, do you think it's possible, it's better not to ask for it, so as not to ask for hardship. ”

Lingque'er nodded and said, "Well, that's what Childe said." But the way down the mountain is only known to Grandpa, and it is not possible to ask him。。。。。。 That's how it can be good. She has always given people the impression of being witty and calm, but at this time, she frowned slightly, as if she had encountered a difficult situation.

"Forget it, if you have to ask him, then you might as well beg him. Your grandfather has such a good relationship with you, as long as you open up, it will not be easy. Qiao Zhengyu said.

Lingque'er listened, but shook her head and said: "No, I understand what Gongzi means, but even if you go out of the valley, I'm afraid you won't live long." ”

Qiao Zhengyu wondered, "Oh, what does this mean?"

Lingque'er said: "Childe, have you forgotten that you have already been poisoned after drinking mountain spring water." The water is very toxic, and if there is no antidote, it will be a dead end if you go out. Although I also know some medical skills, I can't do anything to detoxify, and only my grandfather has this ability. ”

When Qiao Zhengyu heard this, he immediately wilted halfway, and said, "I understand, whether you go out or not, your grandfather must pass this level." So, the only way is to beg your grandfather, right?"

"Well, that's the only way to go, and there's no other way. The sparrow stared at him with big eyes.

"Damn!" Qiao Zhengyu suddenly felt that Wu Baoshou was his nemesis, like a demon, suppressing himself all the time, making himself uncomfortable and unspeakably aggrieved.

The more I thought about it, the more it was not a taste, and suddenly, I felt that the true qi in my body was retrograde, and I didn't know how uncomfortable it was. Suddenly, his eyes went dark, and he fainted again.

When he woke up again, it was still in the same place, everything was so familiar, the bamboo bed, the wooden bench, and of course, the sparrow, the difference was that her eyes were moist, as if she had just cried.

"What, have you ever cried?" Qiao Zhengyu sat up slowly.

Lingque'er said: "It's good that you wake up, just now you screamed and shouted, it's scared to death, I thought you would never wake up again." ”

"Oh, what are these words, do you think I look like a short-lived person?" Qiao Zhengyu smiled bitterly, his internal injuries were getting faster and faster each time, and they were getting more and more painful, although he woke up, he still felt a dull pain in his abdomen, and he was weak.

Lingque'er shook her head and said, "Young Master Qiao, I know that you are very strong, but I won't tell you that your current situation is very dangerous. You've been injured internally, and you've been poisoned by the mountain spring, so your life is in danger at any time, unless it's my grandfather。。。。。。 ”

"So what, I won't ask him even if I die. Qiao Zhengyu smiled bitterly.

"But, you。。。。。。 ”

"Needless to say, I won't go unless the sun comes out in the west. Qiao Zhengyu interrupted Lingque and got up from the bed.

"Well, I can't imagine that there is still some backbone. Yes, I'm starting to like you a little. I only heard Wu Baoshou's voice behind him, and then a figure rushed up and nodded on Qiao Zhengyu's waist.

"You。。。。。。 Qiao Zhengyu only felt that his eyes were black, and before he finished speaking, he had already fallen.
