Chapter 26 Peach Blossom Beauty
Orion looked lovingly at the two teenagers in front of him.
"Uncle, your leg still needs to be recuperated for a while, and we will send you home! Where do you live?" asked Qiu Zilu.
"Then there are two Lao!"
It was the first time that Orion had been so badly injured in the nearby mountains. It is very rare to meet noble people to help!
With the support of Qiu Zilu, he struggled to get up.
The three of them walked slowly towards the village at the foot of the mountain......
A village woman was washing clothes by the river, and when she saw a few people coming from outside the village from a distance, she put down the wooden hammer in her hand and got up to watch.
The village woman had heard from several hunters in the village that in recent days, many strange monsters had appeared around Tangting Mountain, and some of them could even transform into humans, and the people of the whole village couldn't help but be alert.
Xia Wushuang was dressed in a red dress, which was very conspicuous among the green mountains and green waters, and the blood-like red color made people feel very nervous.
Xia Wushuang, who came down the mountain for the first time, was relaxed, and she enjoyed the beautiful scenery around her with interest.
In front of the eyes of the lush forest and bamboo, lush, near the mountains and far away, the mountains and mountains are stacked. Under the shade of verdant trees, the thatched houses loom in peace, tranquility and peace! Although there is no majestic atmosphere of clouds and mist and beautiful glow on the Tangting Mountain, there is also a different world.
I didn't expect that under the mountain, the life of ordinary people is so peaceful and beautiful!
......
When the village woman saw that the girl in red was very angry, she hid behind a tall coral tree by the river and secretly looked in the direction where the three of them were walking.
When they got closer, the village woman recognized the swarthy man in the middle.
Isn't that Brother Lin?
She breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly flashed out from behind the tree and greeted her.
"Brother Lin, what's wrong with you, have you encountered any difficult demon beasts again?" The village woman asked with concern when she saw that the man was limping and seemed to need the support of the young man next to her to stand up.
"Don't get in the way, just go home and rest for a few days!" he hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Tell your brother Qi Heng, don't go up the mountain to collect medicine recently!"
"Thank you Brother Lin for reminding me. A slight gloom rose in the village woman's eyes. Is there really an unusual demon beast in this mountain? Even Brother Lin, a tried-and-true hunter, was injured, and it seems that the rumors in the village are not groundless.
The village woman's eyes took her eyes off Orion and fell on the girl in red.
"Who is this?"
"Oh, the girl I met in the mountains. Thanks to the rescue of the two teenagers, otherwise it would be difficult for Lin to retreat!" Orion suddenly thought that he hadn't even asked the names of the two teenagers, so he turned his head towards Qiu Zilu.
"Little brother, thanks to your rescue with this girl today, the despicable people will not die tragically in the mountains. In Xia Lin Dinghan, it is the hunter in this village. May I ask the two honorable names, and if there is a need in the future, they will definitely sacrifice their lives to repay each other. ”
Qiu Zilu was a little embarrassed, and there was a smile on the corner of her mouth: "Uncle doesn't have to be polite. Purple deer in the next autumn. This girl is Xia Wushuang. We are disciples of the Immortal Sect of the Immortal of the Tang Ting Mountain! It is our mission to eradicate the evil and eliminate the demon and defend the Dao!"
Xia Wushuang couldn't help but snicker on the side, when did Zilu, who loves to fiddle with all kinds of fairy grass, become so chivalrous and upright?
Lin Dinghan nodded approvingly at him and smiled. The village woman frowned slightly, thoughtful.
Xia Wushuang?Summer?
......
"Uncle, let's send you home first!" Xia Wushuang suddenly remembered that the two of them had been down the mountain for a long time, and he was afraid that the master would punish them if he found out.
It's all Zilu's fault, if he hadn't gone down the mountain without permission, how could she, a good apprentice, break the door rules?
Looking at Qiu Zilu again, his eyes were calm and calm, and he didn't seem to be worried about the punishment from his master.
The three of them said goodbye to the village woman and continued on their way.
"Eh, Brother Lin, wait a minute!" the village woman hurriedly called out to Lin Dinghan again.
"I remember, yesterday a girl surnamed Xia came to you and lingered in your courtyard for a long time. I told her you were in the mountains, and she left!"
Could it be that the Xia girl and the Xia Wushuang in front of her acquaintance?
When Qiu Zilu heard the girl surnamed Xia, it was definitely not Xia Wushuang, and the only one who had recently gone down the mountain was Senior Sister Zhen'er, who was also surnamed Xia.
"That girl's name is Xia Zhen?" Qiu Zilu hurriedly asked.
The village woman's eyes lit up: "Yes, I remembered, it seems to be called Xia Zhen." ”
What did Senior Sister Zhen'er do when she came to Uncle Lin Dinghan? Qiu Zilu and Xia Wushuang were clueless for a while.
Lin Dinghan was also very puzzled, he had never met the disciples of Tangting Mountain, so why did Miss Xia appear in his courtyard?
Let's go home and have a cup of tea with the two teenagers. There are some mysteries, and when fate comes, the answers will be revealed.
"I got it, thank you!"
......
Qiu Zilu and Xia Wushuang followed Lin Dinghan to a thatched house.
"It's here, thank you two for rescuing!" Lin Dinghan gave his hand again.
"Now that we have arrived home safely, Zilu, let's hurry back to the mountain, so as not to worry Master. Xia Wushuang wanted to turn around and leave.
"It's still early, the two young heroes come in to rest for a while, drink a cup of tea and then leave. Lin Dinghan politely invited the two life-saving benefactors into the house.
Qiu Zilu was not worried about the master's punishment, so it was a big deal to think about it again. He was very curious, why did Senior Sister Zhen'er look for the Orion in front of him?
"Well, I'm a little thirsty. Qiu Zilu helped Lin Dinghan into the courtyard.
Xia Wushuang's apricot eyes widened in anger, and she bit her thin lip lightly.
For the sake of Zilu, if you go out, the master will punish you!
She couldn't resist Qiu Zilu, so she had to follow.
Lin Dinghan gently pushed open the door, let Qiu Zilu and Xia Wushuang into the room, and then turned around and went to the side room to get firewood, ready to boil some boiling water to make tea.
Qiu Zilu turned around and hurriedly stopped him: "Uncle Lin, you can drink tea without it, the mountain spring water in this bamboo tube is enough!"
Anyway, I'm afraid the two of you can't delay for too long. Lin Dinghan went into the house with them, took out the tea set on the pear blossom wooden table by the window, and poured mountain spring water.
Qiu Zilu picked up the teacup and looked around curiously. Suddenly, a painting on the wall next to the bed caught his eye.
The woman standing under the peach blossom tree and holding the baby in her arms looked quite similar to Sister Zhen'er!
Could it be?
Xia Wushuang also noticed the delicate beauty picture, and she slowly approached and looked at it carefully. The woman in the painting has a quiet and graceful expression, with a happy smile on her face.
"Zilu, this woman...... It seems like Senior Sister Zhen'er!" Xia Wushuang blurted out, and was also taken aback by his own words.
I heard Senior Sister Chunli say before that Senior Sister Zhen'er was picked up by Master and Senior Brother Dong Wuchen from the peach forest at the foot of the mountain. Unexpectedly, her family is still alive.
It's just that Senior Sister Zhen'er hasn't recognized her yet?
Xia Wushuang was excited for a while, and she took Qiu Zilu's hand: "Zilu, Senior Sister Zhen'er's family is still there, can we take Uncle Lin up the mountain?"
Most of the disciples of Tangting Mountain were alone, helpless, and were taken to the fairy mountain by people who were destined to take a break from practicing immortal arts, and in the future, they would kill demons and keep the world peaceful. I didn't expect some disciples and relatives to still be there!
Qiu Zilu stood there, not responding. The Tangting Immortal Mountain is surrounded by the enchantment laid by the master, and it is not easy for mortals and demon beasts to pass through the enchantment and ascend to the immortal mountain. Besides, now Senior Sister Zhen'er has demon poison in her body and is sleeping in the mountains.
Wouldn't it be better for her to wake up and tell the truth about what she had seen today, and let her come to the village to find her family in person?
Xia Wushuang saw that Qiu Zilu ignored her, and turned to Lin Dinghan: "Uncle, do you have a daughter?"
Lin Dinghan looked at the painting on the wall, and his weather-beaten eyes showed a gentle and loving brilliance.
"Yes! it's just ......," the sparkle in his eyes suddenly extinguished.
Lin Dinghan recalled that he was attacked by the white wolf demon that night, he was bitten and fell into a coma due to blood loss. When he woke up again, he was already lying on the bed of his neighbor Qi Heng's house, and the wounds on his body were dressed with herbs and had been carefully bandaged.
He picked up a life. But his wife and daughter are gone.
Later, a villager found his deceased wife under a cliff at the end of the peach forest, but there was no trace of the baby nearby. I'm afraid that I have been mutilated by demon beasts and have no bones?
Every time Lin Dinghan thought of this, the pain of bone erosion hit his whole body.
"It's just that not long after she was born, she was chased by the white wolf demon and fell off the cliff with her mother......"
Xia Wushuang couldn't hide the loss in his eyes.
"I'm sorry, uncle, for reminding you of something sad. ”
She looked again at the delicate brushwork of the beauty.
Is it really that I am thinking too much? Everything is just a coincidence, this woman with a baby in her arms has nothing to do with Senior Sister Zhen'er?
