Chapter 989

Three days ago, when Ah Nan was picking flowers on the side of the road, she met a strange man who fainted, because her physique was peculiar and her strength was boundless, so she easily carried the strange man back to her residence.

She doesn't have a permanent place to live, and she usually lives in a forest on the west side of the town. Some of the elders in the town let her live in the town, but she was not used to living in the boxy houses. In her words, the boxy houses were like cages, and she didn't feel comfortable looking at them.

Therefore, although Ah Nan wanders around the town during the day, at night she will run back to the forest to sleep, like a little wild man.

In the early morning, the sun shines through the branches of the trees in the dense forest. Ah Nan rubbed her eyes, yawned, and suddenly jumped up from the ground. She touched her dirty little face and laughed carefree.

The clothes on her body were made for her by an aunt in the town three years ago, and she has never changed them and has no money to buy new clothes to wear.

Dressed in tattered clothes, her face was dirty, and even that couldn't hide her sweet smile. Especially her eyes that smile like a crescent moon look so cute.

Ah Nan jumped onto the tree like a monkey, but she stood on the branch very steadily, and the branch did not break. Even Ah Nan didn't know why she had this ability.

She stood on a branch and looked down, and she could see the occasional hare passing through the woods.

She has this habit every day, and the first thing she does when she wakes up in the morning is to jump into a tree and look at the scenery in the woods.

After watching it for a while, she jumped straight down from the branch, and her body was very steady when she fell to the ground.

She walked up to the strange man and found that the strange man was still unconscious, so a trace of confusion appeared in her eyes.

"Is it dead?" she muttered quietly, reaching out and stabbing the man in the shoulder.

Seeing that the man still didn't react, she poked the man in the shoulder again. This time, however, the man suddenly opened his eyes and screamed loudly.

This scream frightened Ah Nan to the side as if he had seen a ghost, and looked vigilantly at the strange man who was yelling.

This strange man is none other than Hua Xiu, the second son of the Hua family.

Hua Xiu grinned and screamed, just now his consciousness was blurred, and he vaguely felt that someone was poking his wound. When he was fully conscious, the burning pain in the wound made him can't help but scream.

He didn't even have the strength to stand up now, after all, he hadn't even drunk saliva after being hungry for three days and three nights.

Hua Xiu lay on the ground and saw the stunned girl standing aside, and said hello: "Hello, girl." ”

"You... Hello. Ah Nan showed a scared expression and said weakly.

Hua Xiu howled miserably just now, as if all his strength had been exhausted. He looked at the girl he didn't know embarrassedly, coughed lightly, and said, "Are there any wild fruits in this wood?"

"Oh, are you hungry, I'll go and pick some fruit for you. Ah Nan simply turned around and went into the woods to pick fruits.

Soon after, Ah Nan walked back with a pile of wild fruits. Hua Xiu looked at the wild fruits that Ah Nan put on the ground, and said embarrassedly: "Girl, I don't have any strength now, can you feed me..."

Ah Nan smiled, narrowed her crescent-like eyes, and picked up a fruit and sent it to Hua Xiu's mouth.

Hua Xiu was already hungry, and he didn't care about face, so he opened his mouth and swallowed the whole fruit. However, as soon as he took a bite, Hua Xiu spit out the fruit, and he said with a bitter face: "Why is this fruit so astringent, the teeth are going to fall out." ”

Ah Nan pouted, picked up another fruit from the ground, and sent it to Hua Xiu's mouth: "You taste this, this is my favorite fruit to eat." ”

Hua Xiu took a bite lightly, and his face became even more ugly. He grinned and said, "This fruit is sweet and toothless!"

Ah Nan touched her pigtail, picked up another fruit from the ground, brought it to Hua Xiu's mouth and said, "You don't like sweet, then try this." ”

Hua Xiu licked this fruit carefully, and his face turned black with just a light lick: "What kind of fruit is this, how is it more bitter than medicine..."

"Then you try this. ”

"Oops, spicier than chili!"

"What about this?"

"Girl, have you ever eaten stinky tofu?"

"I haven't eaten it, so you can try this again. ”

"It's sour than my old vinegar. ”

"Oh, then you try this. ”

β€œ......”

Hua Xiu tasted one wild fruit after another with a bitter face, and these wild fruits were difficult to swallow. But Hua Xiu was so hungry that he forcibly ate a few fruits with the sour water in his stomach.

When Ah Nan saw that Hua Xiu had finally eaten a few wild fruits, she showed a very happy appearance, smiled sweetly, and said to Hua Xiu: "You eat first, I'll go and bring you some spring water." ”

After a while, Ah Nan took the big leaf on the unknown plant and walked back with a puddle of water in the big leaf.

Hua Xiu looked at this innocent girl, his eyes softened, and he sighed, "Thank you, girl." ”

Ah Nan just smiled and sent the leaf to Hua Xiu's mouth.

Hua Xiu sniffed and found that this leaf actually exuded a smell of wine, he slowly drank the spring water in the leaf, the spring water was sweet and refreshing, and it also made his spirit refreshed.

After eating the unpalatable wild fruits and drinking the sweet spring water, Hua Xiu gradually gained some strength. He sat up from the ground, looked at the girl crouching in front of him, and asked with a smile, "What is your name, why did you appear in this woods?" ”

Ah Nan smiled brightly and said, "This is my home, my name is Ah Nan." ”

"What a strange name. My name is Hua Xiu, did you save me?" Hua Xiu also looked at her with a smile.

Ah Nan nodded and said, "Yes, I met you on the side of the road three days ago, and I carried you to this forest. ”

"Are you carrying me?" Hua Xiu stared at Ah Nan with wide eyes, revealing an incredulous look.

Ah Nan nodded and said, "Yes, I carried you all the way to this place, but you never woke up, and I thought you were dead." ”

Hua Xiu looked at the innocent and lovely girl in front of him, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, he knew that he had met a monster.

Just when Hua Xiu was in a daze, Ah Nan looked at his shoulder with a confused look, and said, "Why are you tied with strips of cloth on your shoulder, and there is a lot of blood on it?" After speaking, she stretched out her finger and poked Hua Xiu's wound again.

"Ahh

Hua Xiu suddenly screamed, and a few leaves fell in front of him.

In this way, Hua Xiu got acquainted with Ah Nan, because Hua Xiu was seriously injured, and Ah Nan was taking care of him for the past two days.

Now that two days have passed, Hua Xiu's injury has improved slightly, but he is still not at ease in his heart, he is worried that Hua Yun will do something bold.

Therefore, he must now return home as soon as possible and tell his father about Hua Yun's defection to the enemy.

Ah Nan told Hua Xiu about her experiences from childhood to adulthood, but Hua Xiu didn't tell her her true identity. He had to be on his guard now and not trust anyone easily.

Hua Xiu had been in the forest for two days, and now he can walk. He thanked Ah Nan and hurried out of the forest to the town of Holy Water to the east of the forest.

He wanted to return to Thang Long City and couldn't take the land route, but fortunately there was a holy water river connecting Thang Long City with Holy Water Town.

The Seongsu River is northeast of Seongsu Town, and the dirt road leading to the boot camp is southeast of Seongsu Town, so it happens to stagger the boot barracks.

Hua Xiu came to the bank of the Shengshui River, where several small boats were docked, and it seemed that this river was also a road that people often walked.

The people who traveled to Thang Long City through the Seongsu River were all dignitaries and dignitaries, and these rich and powerful people did not like to ride on the road in a horse-drawn carriage, so they took a boat and walked the waterway.

There are many boatmen on the shore, but Hua Xiu is now facing a problem. His luggage and parcel were detained by Xia Lin, and he didn't have a penny now, so he didn't have money to take the boat.

But he didn't know how to do martial arts, and besides, he was seriously wounded, so he couldn't force the boatman to pull him back to the city.

Just when Hua Xiu was distressed because he had no money to take the boat, a familiar figure came to the shore.

Hua Xiu was immediately excited when he saw this figure, because the person who appeared on the shore was none other than Bai Lao, who was dressed in white.

Bai Lao's expression was a little tired, and when he saw Hua Xiu, his face showed surprise.

"Second son, why are you here?" Bai Lao walked over and asked with concern.

Hua Xiu smiled bitterly and told Bai Lao about his experience these days.

Bai Lao's face was heavy after hearing this, and he sighed: "It seems that the world is going to be chaotic again, the second son will return to the General's Mansion with me, it is too dangerous for you to be alone outside." ”

Hua Xiu shook his head and said, "Even if I go back now, then my father will drive me out." I won't go back until I find my sister. Since I met you here, then please quickly tell my father that Hua Yun's defection to the enemy and Xia Lin are spies. ”

Bai Lao sighed, he also knew Hua Zijing's temper, if Hua Xiu went back now, he would really be beaten out of the house by the first general of the empire.

Bai Lao couldn't bear to look at Hua Xiu, who had a haggard face, took out some money from his body and handed it to him, and said, "You can use this money to buy some medicine to treat your wounds, and keep the rest for use on the road." Don't trust others easily, people nowadays are not too kind. Usually you must pay more attention. ”

Hua Xiu didn't shirk it, accepted the money, nodded and said, "Without further ado, you quickly tell your father about the news, and let's leave it at that!"

"Second son, be careful on the road! Bai Lao kept instructing Hua Xiu, found a boatman and got on the boat.

Bai Lao stood on the boat and looked at Hua Xiu on the shore, Hua Xiu waved his hand at him and left here.

Hua Xiu was also very reluctant, but he had to go on this road. Bai Lao told him that Huashang would not be in danger for the time being, and the person who kidnapped Huashang was not Xia Luo, but a very powerful master.

At that time, Bai Lao's eyes flickered a little when he spoke, revealing a timid look. Bai Lao has never shown such a dignified appearance in ordinary times, which shows that the identity of the master who kidnapped his sister is definitely not ordinary. Hua Xiu muttered in his mouth, although Bai Lao comforted himself that he didn't have to worry about his sister, Hua Xiu still felt uneasy.

He walked aimlessly in the town, but by chance he met Ah Nan again.

When Ah Nan saw Hua Xiu, she smiled and stepped forward to say hello.

"Ah Nan, are you usually in Holy Water Town, how many years have you been here?" Hua Xiu was bored, so he asked Ah Nan casually.

Ah Nan shook her head and said, "I can't remember how long I've been here. ”

While the two were chatting, Hua Xiu saw that Xia Luo was also walking on the street. He frowned, and quickly left the street by the hand.

After leaving the street, Ah Nan was puzzled, "Why did you bring me here?"

Hua Xiu's injuries had not fully recovered, and now he ran in a hurry, and the wound gradually became painful.

Hua Xiu grinned and said, "I just met a bad guy who wants to kill me, and I'm avoiding him." ”

"Kill, why kill?" The naΓ―ve Ah Nan didn't understand the sinister human heart, and he wondered why someone would kill someone.

Hua Xiu couldn't explain this kind of thing, his wound was not hurting now, so he frowned and asked, "Do you know where there is a medical hall in the town?"

"I know, your wound hurts again, come with me, I'll take you to the hospital. ”

Hua Xiu followed Ah Nan to a small medical hall, and the doctor in the medical hall was very enthusiastic, and talked and laughed with Ah Nan, and seemed to be an acquaintance of Ah Nan.

Hua Xiu redressed the wound here, bought a few pairs of healing medicine and left the medical hall.

He couldn't stay for a moment now, or it would be dangerous for Charlotte to find out. However, Hua Xiu didn't know that at this time, Xia Luo's mana had also disappeared temporarily. Even if he was discovered by Charlotte, he would not be able to deal with himself.

Hua Xiu left in a hurry, and Ah Nan also followed him out of the medical hall.

Hua Xiu looked at Ah Nan who followed curiously and asked, "Why are you still following me?"

Ah Nan's face was solemn, and he said seriously: "You and I know each other, that is a friend, so I want to protect my friend." ”

Listening to Ah Nan's unpretentious words, Hua Xiu was also a little moved. He nodded and promised to follow him. After all, Ah Nan is a weirdo, and he has an extra talisman with him.

At this moment, the Confused Immortal finally appeared with his apprentice and came to Hua Xiu's face.

Seeing the Foolish Immortal and the others walking towards him, Hua Xiu was full of vigilance, and took Ah Nan's hand and slowly retreated.

Seeing this, the red lotus used her agile body and appeared in front of Hua Xiu in the blink of an eye.

This frightened Hua Xiu, but he didn't panic, he stared and said calmly: "Who are you, what are you looking for me?"

Red Lotus grinned, revealing two cute little tiger teeth, stretched out her hand and patted Hua Xiu's shoulder with a grin, and said, "Your name is Hua Xiu, right, I heard that you are also seventeen years old, and I happen to be the same age as you." Next, let me and my uncles and father-in-law protect you. Don't be afraid, we're not bad people. ”
