All the way to the north, the number of people gradually decreased, and the original flat official road became the vast grassland now.

Over the past few months, Yao Xing'er has long felt no fatigue, and she has become accustomed to long-distance treks every day.

It's just that now she is ragged and filthy, even compared with the beggars in the city, she is a little more down.

In the middle of the grassland, the two found a gentle slope to sit down, Jia Yuanshu looked at the starry sky overhead, his expression suddenly solemn, sometimes relaxed.

"Brother Jia, are you counting the stars?"

Seeing Jia Yuan's concentrated appearance, Yao Xing'er couldn't help but ask.

"Look at the stars. ”

Jia Yuan replied and continued to look up.

"Where did you learn all these fortune-telling skills?"

Tianshu, which was originally a little dim, gradually became brighter, and Jia Yuan's face relaxed slightly, and slowly withdrew his gaze.

Stretching his waist, he leaned towards the grass on one side, and said with a smile: "These are all learned at home since childhood, and they are useless, and now even filling their stomachs is almost a problem." ”

Yao Xing'er shook her head secretly and said softly: "I always feel that Brother Jia is a person who asks about universities. ”

Thinking of the concern in his heart, he hurriedly asked again: "Brother Jia, you can tell fortunes and help me calculate, are my two younger brothers okay now? Is it true that the farther I go, the better their lives will be?"

In Yao Xing'er's heart, she always felt that she had affected Lu Mingfei and Qu Xiaotian, although it had been a long time, she was still haunted after all.

Jia Yuanshu looked at Yao Xing'er and said firmly and sincerely: "Don't worry, I won't be mistaken, your two brothers are not ordinary people, one day they will soar into the sky, and then you will meet again." ”

A gust of night wind blew, and it was even more unscrupulous on this vast grassland.

Yao Xing'er didn't feel a trace of coldness, and curled up slightly.

As the two spoke, they looked up at the sky from time to time, not noticing that a black shadow was slowly coming with a dangerous aura.

Jia Yuan took off the tattered robe on his body, and was about to drape it on Yao Xing'er, when he just turned his head sideways, and suddenly found that in the darkness not far from him, a pair of cold eyes were staring at the two of them tightly.

"Oh no, run!"

Sensing the danger, Jia Yuanshu didn't dare to hesitate, hurriedly warned him, and at the same time pulled up Yao Xing'er and ran forward.

There was a rustling sound behind him, and it was a wizened wild wolf trailing behind, sprinting like a fly in the grassland.

Jia Yuan, who has always been calm, couldn't help but be a little flustered at this time, the surrounding area was empty, and he really didn't know how to deal with the surprise attack of the evil wolf.

is a man who is unrestrained, and how to run past a wild wolf with a weak woman.

In the blink of an eye, the wild wolf had chased after the two, his eyes full of fierce light.

Jia Yuanshu sensed that something was wrong, and when he looked back, he saw the wild wolf jumping up and rushing towards Yao Xing'er.

In a hurry, he didn't care too much, dragged Yao Xing'er behind him, and stretched out a hand to hit the wild wolf.

Although Yao Xing'er avoided the wild wolf, Jia Yuanshu was bitten on the forearm by the other party, his sharp teeth were clenched, and the roar of "whining" in his mouth kept coming.

Ignoring the severe pain in his heart, Jia Yuanshu waved his arms desperately, throwing the wild wolf up and down in the air.

Yao Xing'er hid behind Jia Yuan, looking at the scene in front of her with a frightened face, her face was white, and she couldn't make a sound in fright.

After a while, Jia Yuanshu finally threw the wild wolf off his arm, and the air turned upside down, and the wild wolf landed on the grass, but he didn't have the slightest intention of giving up, the fierce light in his cold eyes was even stronger, and his body bowed slightly, and he was about to wait for the opportunity to pounce again.

In the distance, an old horse came out of nowhere.

As if seeing this, the old horse stopped, and a black figure flew like lightning on the horse's back.

Compared to the speed of the wild wolf, the black shadow was several times faster, and the woman in black wearing a hat had arrived in front of Jia Yuan's body in a blink of an eye.

Just in time for the wild wolf to pounce again, the iron sword in the woman's hand tightened, and she stabbed towards the wild wolf.

As if sensing the danger, the wolf's eyes flashed with a hint of fear, but unfortunately it was already in the air, and it was too late to turn around.

The iron sword was unsheathed, only a broken sword, and there was still a little distance from the wild wolf jumping in the air, but who knew that the half of the iron sword flashed a sword light, directly dividing the wild wolf into two, and there was no chance to howl.

The crisis has gone, looking at the wild wolf that was cut in two, the flesh and blood were blurred, Yao Xing'er could only take care of it and exclaimed, and the horror in her eyes did not subside for a minute.

One hand grabbed Jia Yuan's arm tightly, just touching the wound.

Jia Yuanji couldn't help but gasp, and the pain pierced his heart.

Only then did he realize that Jia Yuan was injured, and then looked at his arm, there were several sharp tooth marks, and they were bloody.

"Brother Jia!"

Yao Xing'er exclaimed again, and planned to find something to bandage, but the two of them were already embarrassed, where could there be a clean cloth.

The woman in black looked at the injury on Jia Yuan's arm, looked at Yao Xing'er, who was in a hurry, and threw a small porcelain bottle from her arms.

"Dressing can stop the bleeding, no need to bandage. ”

Said coldly.

Yao Xing'er came back to her senses, hurriedly applied the powder to Jia Yuan's wound, and then returned the porcelain bottle to the woman in black, and thanked her repeatedly.

The wolf was disemboweled, and there was a foul smell, and the woman in black took a look, leaned down, and cut a piece of flesh on the wolf's body with an iron sword.

This move made Yao Xing'er's belly turn over for a while, and she covered her mouth and nose with one hand and said, "Girl, who are you?"

"Eat. ”

The woman said only one word, and with a sword she went down, cutting off another piece of flesh.

Yao Xing'er hurriedly took out a dry cake from the package and brought it to the woman in black and said, "Girl, we have dry food, you can eat these." ”

The woman took the dry cake in her hand, glanced at Yao Xing'er's thin body and said, "It's cold in the north, and just eating some dry cakes can't warm your body." ”

The cake was stained with blood, and it was not returned to Yao Xing'er, and the wolf meat on the ground did not fall.

The three of them returned to the small slope where they had been sheltered from the wind, lit a bonfire, and roasted the wolf meat.

While eating the cake, he bites the wolf meat.

Under the strong pressure of the previous nausea, Yao Xing'er also tried to eat a small bite of wolf meat, but felt that the taste was not as unbearable as she imagined, so she simply put another piece in her mouth.

The woman in black looked at the tattered and thin clothes on the two of them and asked, "You are from the south?"

Yao Xing'er nodded and replied, "Well, from Feng'an City." ”

The woman in black was slightly stunned, glanced at Yao Xing'er more, and didn't say anything more.

It was only at this time that Yao Xing'er calmed down and asked curiously: "Has the girl ever learned kung fu?" I saw you kill that wild wolf just now, but I was lucky to meet you, otherwise ......."

The woman in black doesn't like to talk to people on weekdays, and for some reason, she just feels that the ragged girl in front of her is quite kind, so she nodded and replied: "I have learned some martial arts from my master since I was a child." ”

Yao Xing'er smiled and continued: "My name is Yao Xing'er, this is Jia Yuan's eldest brother, I don't know what the girl is called, when we have the opportunity in the future, we will definitely repay the girl's life-saving grace." ”

"Yu Yingxue. ”

After leaving her name, the woman in black suddenly stood up, took the old horse and walked towards the north.

Not a word more.

Yao Xing'er wanted to say something more, but the other party had already walked away.

Jia Yuanshu glanced at it silently, only to feel that the back was lonely and lonely, and it seemed to be a little lonelier than the wild wolf before.
