Chapter 22: Back Mountain
"Yes, thank you Daxian for giving me this opportunity, Xiaowen will definitely live up to your expectations in the future and serve you well. ”
"I don't need you to serve, but I have to work hard for you a lot in the future, can you bear it?"
After listening to Maple Leaf's words, a very brief sadness appeared on her face, and she gritted her teeth: "Yes, as long as my family can live a carefree life in this life, and I can take care of them, I can do it." ”
"That's great, you have to count when you speak, oh Xiaowen, you can't go back, otherwise there will be a price. Rong's mother's words seemed to be worried, but in fact, they were even more threatening.
"Well, I know. Xiaowen nodded, and the light in his eyes, at that moment, lit up, went out again, and then lit up again.
"Then, three in all, your brother's injuries will be completely healed after eating. Daxian's medicine can be used for half a month, so you have to be mentally prepared, understand?"
"Yes, Mama Rong!"
"Alright, let's go. ”
"Well, then I'll quit. ”
Xiaowen exited the room, holding three black pills in his hand, glanced at the road in the distance, and seemed to have strengthened his belief in his heart before taking a step and leaving.
Maple Leaf's voice came from the room: "Mother Rong, is this really good?"
"It's okay Daxian, don't worry. In the final analysis, we are not doing this for her good, although the process is a little tortuous, but her family's life is getting better and better, and her brother's health is not like this. You are just too kind, you have never thought about yourself, you have never been selfish for yourself, and you have always thought about others. In fact, this kind of practice, don't say that we are doing it secretly, even if you clearly tell everyone who has received your favor, they should know how to repay you with gratitude. ”
"That's what you say...... But in my heart, I always feel a little uneasy......"
"Okay, my Maple Leaf Immortal, you, just put a hundred hearts in your stomach, it won't be like that. By the way, who is the person who came to you today to ask Mo Xin about it? Last time I came, I saw that you and Huoyu Daxian seemed to have some intention of backing down on her?"
"Alas...... It's not a concession, it's respect, her identity, it's really not simple. Oh yes, she should be gone. ”
"Well, it should be, it's been so long, even if it's slow, it's time to get to the foot of the mountain. ”
"That's good, I was really scared out of a cold sweat just now. Maple Leaf's words made the dream outside the window even more suspicious. What does Maple Leaf mean? Why do you say that she is scared into a cold sweat? Is she afraid that last night's events will be discovered by Dream Fall?
"Daxian, are you so afraid of her?How can you say that you are also a great immortal who has become an immortal, how can you be afraid of her?I don't see how powerful she can be compared to you~" Rong's mother's words, half of them are true, and half of them are patting Maple Leaf's ass in a different way.
"You know what! I'm still a little scared. She is not a figure comparable to an earth immortal like me, just a cultivation skill, I am 108,000 miles away. ”
"Huh, that person is so powerful, I really can't see it. But Daxian, don't be discouraged, isn't it that now that you have such a trick, you will soon be able to improve your cultivation skills, don't be afraid of her. You, if you can use that method completely and increase your cultivation for a thousand years at a time, it won't be easy to catch up with anyone?
"Alas, Mother Rong, don't talk about that, no matter how I do, I will never deliberately harm people's lives. Now I am very uncomfortable with Xiaowen like this. Maple Leaf said, his eyes rolled out, and a contemptuous glance at the roof and Rong's mother.
Rong's mother smiled, "Don't worry, she won't know." ”
"Well, yes, I don't know now, but what if I know one day?"
"What do you know? It's not up to you to decide! It's her blessing to have chosen her, even if our brother's illness is caused by us, isn't it to save her, so that her brother is better now than before!"
"Hmm...... Forget Rong's mother, don't talk about this. I took that pill last night, and today I feel different, let's go to the cave and see how that guy is. Maple Leaf stood up as she spoke, tidied up her clothes, tilted her head, and walked outside the house.
Mengluo secretly followed behind them, it turned out that Maple Leaf was not what she saw, and there was also a little-known side. It seems that Xiaowen's matter was arranged by Rong's mother, and her younger brother and family were also involved. This matter, although Mengluo didn't figure it out, but listening to the conversation between Rong's mother and Maple Leaf just now, it seems that Xiaowen is in the dark.
Back in the mountains, Dream fell a few times, but this time, she took a road she had never walked before. This road is hidden behind a tall tree, and the trunk is so thick that it takes four or five adults to form a circle to hug it. As they passed by the tree, Yumonoku felt that the tree had spirituality and had already become a spirit. This road, under the cover of the tree spirit, is well hidden. So much so that Mengluo never found this road, if it weren't for the maple leaf leading the way today, I'm afraid it would be difficult for her to find the entrance.
The tree-lined paths are densely covered by the shade of trees on both sides of the road, and the weather that was originally sunless makes it even more gloomy. The air around was filled with an indescribable smell. It's a bit like blood, it's a bit like rancid...... The smell was light, but it was enough to make Yumeroku feel a little disgusting.
In the distance, there was an occasional bird call or two, which also seemed very miserable.
After walking a short distance, a stream came into view. The water of the stream is clear and you can see the bottom. Aquatic plants are driven by the flow of water, and with the flow of water, there is a regular and rhythmic fluttering. From time to time, a few gray fish, in the dark green aquatic plants, burrowed around.
: Well, the view is nice, just a little bleak. Yumaru enjoyed the scenery while continuing to walk forward.
Above the stream, a beautiful little arched bridge shone dark. This is a road paved with big green bricks, the age should be quite long, the twill on the stone, many have been exposed to the wind and sun, people walk and polish the shiny, and the lines are blurred. Under the reflection of the surrounding shade, it is dark and shiny. A heavy sense of time flows away with the water on the small arch bridge.
Mengluo walked across the small bridge, and a chill instantly rushed straight to her body, and she shivered, almost sneezing by the way.
Rong's mother rubbed her arms up and down with her hands: "Hiss...... It's still so cold here. ”
Maple didn't speak, glanced at her, took a pill out of his pocket, and handed it to her. Rong's mother took it and ate it.
