Hu Xiaoli looked at the city behind him, it was a very big city, and he had walked so many places with his husband, and he had seen a city that could be bigger than this city.

Under the faint light of the sky, the whole city looks like a silhouette, and occasionally there are some faint candles in the city, which are inconspicuous but can also line the city more clearly in this sky.

"Xiaoli, are you still thinking about that fishtail rice vermicelli?"

The fourth senior brother lifted the burden that had slipped off his shoulders, and when he saw Hu Xiaoli reluctantly looking back at the city behind him, he couldn't help but have some doubts.

Hearing his husband's question, Hu Xiaoli shook his head and trotted to catch up with the gentleman who was slightly distanced.

"Sir, why do I have a sword?"

Hu Xiaoli decided not to think about the things in the city anymore, so he put all his thoughts in front of him, and in front of him happened to be the sword on the back of the fourth senior brother.

"Everyone respects swordsmen in this world, isn't it good to have a sword?" The fourth senior brother did not answer Hu Xiaoli's question, but asked rhetorically.

Hu Xiaoli thought about it and said with a smile: "It's okay." ”

......

The two of them walked on the official road, and on both sides they could often see some fields after the crops had been harvested, and this autumn was rainy, and there would be water in the fields at this time.

Some very loud frogs especially like to be half-submerged in the water and cry, because their calls are so loud, as loud as a cow's moo, so they are often called bullfrogs.

There will be a little light fog in the early morning, and the fourth senior brother saw a short figure on the side of the road in front of him under the faint light sky, much shorter than Hu Xiaoli's figure, and it seemed to be still lying around, as if it was like a ......

"Hell!"

The fourth senior brother took a closer look, and a face half like a frog and half like a human was exposed, with a human body with frog limbs and two feet, standing between the field and the road.

The fourth senior brother and Hu Xiaoli were suddenly taken aback, the fourth senior brother at this time was just a scholar, and Hu Xiaoli was just a child, so he would naturally be afraid when he encountered such an unexpected demon and monster.

The fourth senior brother hurriedly pulled Hu Xiaoli and wanted to go back, but the short figure jumped a few meters away and jumped in front of the two of them at once.

"Quack!"

The frog demon crowed twice, but it was not as eloquent as the fourth senior brother cognized, but a pure bullfrog call, but it was lower and louder than the ordinary bullfrog's call.

Even though the fourth senior brother is an ordinary person now, his heart is still extremely strong, and he quickly calmed down, trying to think about what to do with it now.

"The demon is a beast, not cooked, and he likes the essence of a human being. ”

The fourth senior brother only remembers that the scholar had such a sentence to describe the goblin in his memory. All inhumans are demons and monsters, and this kind of demons and monsters like to suck people's essence the most.

The fourth senior brother still remembered that if there were many people, these ghosts would be afraid, but at this time, there were only two teachers and students, how could they be regarded as too many people?

"Bullfrog frog fight. ”

Suddenly, a clear and beautiful woman's voice sounded, with a slightly strange accent, and I saw a two-finger-thick stick fall on the head of the croaking goblin in front of me.

The faint light was not enough to see the woman in the mist, but she could see the stick in front of her......

And a terrible bullfrog.

The bullfrog's head was dented by the stick, its extremely protruding eyes were about to burst out of its sockets, and its wide and terrifying mouth continued to flow black and red blood, and then the hind legs that supported it to stand loosened and fell directly to the ground, where it died.

Hu Xiaoli witnessed this whole scene, he was very scared in his heart, his heart was beating very fast, and he didn't know whether he was afraid of the demons or the stick.

The fourth senior brother's heartbeat was also a little fast, after all, he was just a powerless scholar at this time, so he didn't calm down the fast-beating heart until the bullfrog demon fell to the ground and died.

"Don't be afraid, I'm from the village in front of me, these bullfrogs have been rampant lately, and in order to eat enough before hibernation, they often run to the road to disturb people's cleanliness. ”

A teenage girl walked over and explained in a slightly weird accent.

The fourth senior brother remembered the stick, and was a little surprised in his heart: "May I ask the girl, these are ordinary frogs?

"These bullfrogs have grown a little bigger, and their cries have become louder, and mine is not a stick, but a sword, and I wonder if I could walk like a fairy with a sword. ”

The woman was wearing a cotton coat, and there were not many patches on her body, only three or two, and they looked good.

The fourth senior brother was a little unclear, but he didn't say it directly.

"This is a sword, how can wood be a sword?" Hu Xiaoli said when he had something to say, asked when he was confused, and pointed directly to the sword on his husband's back.

The woman hung the wooden stick around her waist, rubbed her hands, and looked at Hu Xiaoli with a hat with disdain, "Even if mine is a wooden stick, it is stronger than your sword." ”

After saying that, the woman left a little angry.

The fourth senior brother's eyes lit up, and he didn't know what to do, so he saluted the woman and thanked her: "Thank you for the girl's advice." ”

Seeing his own husband like this, Hu Xiaoli was very unclear, in his eyes, his own husband should be an omniscient person, how could he need advice from others?

"Xiaoli, do you know, when a person likes something very much, you shouldn't be so unscrupulous, it will make others unhappy, and don't you think that the sword is at ease in the heart is a very innocent realm?"

The fourth senior brother nodded Hu Xiaoli's head with the fan in his hand, this strength, even if Hu Xiaoli was not wearing a hat on his head, he would not be beaten.

Hu Xiaoli naturally knew that his husband was not trying to beat himself, but was teaching himself knowledge.

So he closed his eyes and thought about it seriously.

The fourth senior brother also closed his eyes at this time, because he was very sure that the frog was not an ordinary bullfrog, but a real demon.

An ordinary woman who can kill a demon with a stick is naturally not ordinary.

The fourth senior brother knows the cultivation avenue and the way of the sword, although he remembers his ordinary people, but some knowledge cannot be forgotten, and the scene just now really taught the fourth senior brother a lesson.

After half a ring, the fourth senior brother opened his eyes, and some insights and knowledge had been deeply implanted in his heart. He subconsciously touched the sword on his waist, it was Hu Xiaoli's sword, and the fourth senior brother felt that something was wrong.

So, the two continued to hurry, but Hu Xiaoli was no longer as relaxed as before. Although he didn't have a backpack, the sword, which was a little big for him, hung on his back.

The two of them walked all the way, the sky was already bright, and the fourth senior brother suddenly saw a young man in front of him, and just saw the young man using a bamboo branch to kill a frog demon alive.

His eyesight was very good, and when he saw the dense whip marks on the demon's body, he was very shocked in his heart, why could the young girls who had not yet cultivated and had no vitality be able to kill the demon so casually?

You must know that a goblin like a frog demon can only become a demon after cultivation, which means that those frog demons can use their vitality.

The fourth senior brother stepped forward curiously, bowed down and asked, "Childe, how can you kill this strange frog?"

Hearing this, the young man in the old cotton clothes turned his head and looked at the fourth senior brother who was dressed almost like himself, and couldn't help laughing: "From childhood to adulthood, I am ripe! The whip is not easy to use, it would be good to have a stick." ”

"I see! ”

The fourth senior brother didn't think about it this time, because he could understand the most important content of the young man's words.

After bowing again, the fourth senior brother led Hu Xiaoli and walked back to the official road and continued to embark on their journey.

"It's really strange, what is there to teach a bullfrog?" the young man looked at the fourth senior brother who was far away, scratched his head, and said with some puzzlement.

"I thought it was someone from the next village, forget it, I killed two big bullfrogs today, and I don't know how many others killed, I can't lose. ”

The boy carried the carcasses of the two big frogs and shook the bamboo branches in his hand with a swishing sound, and walked briskly towards the village.

......

In fact, Hu Xiaoli didn't understand, obviously his own husband was so knowledgeable, why he thanked a teenager and a girl for his advice in one morning today, which made Hu Xiaoli feel very confused.

If you don't understand, just ask.

So Hu Xiaoli couldn't hold back any longer, and while being led away by the fourth senior brother, he raised his head and asked, "Sir, why are you so knowledgeable, and you still thank the two of you in the morning?"

"No one in the world knows everything, I should be like this, there is no end to learning, and learning can make myself go further when I encounter problems, which is a great joy. The fourth senior brother said with a smile, "Once upon a time, there was a sage: if you are a threesome, you must have my teacher." ”

Hearing Mr.'s words, Hu Xiaoli frowned, and then asked, "If that's the case, can I also become Mr.'s teacher?

"No, there is no distinction between high and low teachers, those who give are teachers, and those who practice are apprentices. The fourth senior brother shook his fan and said with some joy.

He learned a lot today, so he was very happy, and Hu Xiaoli also learned a lot today, so he was even happier.

......

The two walked all the way, and the sky soon became dark, and the fourth senior brother and Hu Xiaoli entered a small village, and the villagers in the village were very enthusiastic and invited the two to their homes as guests.

Some teenagers and children don't know why the two of them take so much importance to the adults in the village, but they feel that these things are none of their business.

In the Central Plains, talented literati and elegant guests will not be treated badly anywhere.

It was getting late soon, and the fourth senior brother slept in the same bed with Hu Xiaoli.

The fourth senior brother looked at Hu Xiaoli who was sleeping in his arms, and his hair, which was usually covered by a hat, was particularly soft to the touch.

But the fourth senior brother always felt as if something was missing.

The fourth senior brother's heart moved slightly, looking at the starlight flowing outside the window, today's extraordinarily round moon hung high in the sky, very big and bright, it looked a bit like an uneven ball.

"It always feels like you're not a fan. ”

The fourth senior brother retracted his gaze looking out of the window, looked at the paper fan in his hand, and said jokingly.

。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
