Chapter 263: Youth
"This ......," Wei Hansheng hesitated.
"What, are you afraid this is poison?" Di Yunfeng raised his eyebrows.
Wei Hansheng hurriedly shook his head and said: "How come, if the warrior wanted to harm me, he would have let me die under the knife of the bandits, I was just worried about the price of this elixir......"
"Hahaha, you and I are destined, it's too cheesy to talk about the price, I'll give it to you, don't thank me!" Di Yunfeng smiled chic and threw the red pill to Wei Hansheng.
The door of the inn was pushed open, and the darts were blown away by the wind and sand, and they scrambled into the inn.
The boy named "Cabbage" was the last, he was thinner than the dart man, and he was dressed thinner than the dart man, but his expression did not show any cold. He stood at the door, waited for all the darts to enter the house before slowly closing the door, and then he wanted to leave, but he heard the shopkeeper Pang instruct: "Cabbage, the back kitchen is open, and you go to the firewood room to bring two bundles of wood." Thank you for your hard work. ”
The cabbage was expressionless, and said "yes", and before he even wrapped his scarf, he was about to go out.
"And wait. Mu Xueyi suddenly stopped the young man who wanted to go out.
The young man looked back, looked surprised, then lowered his eyes again, and said lightly: "What else do you want objectively?"
Mu Xueyi walked at least the year, took out a beautiful and thick scarf from her sleeve, personally wrapped it around your young man, and said with a smile: "The wind and sand outside are so big, don't blow such a tender little face." ”
The cabbage was slightly stunned, the big brother in front of him was too beautiful, and his smile was even better than the fairy daughter in the painting. The boy blushed and said, "Thank you." Then he turned and pushed the door open.
"If you don't smile, you're an indifferent teenager, and if you laugh, you're a cute child. Mu Xueyi smiled, in fact, she laughed like a child.
"Shopkeeper, this young man called 'Cabbage' is your son?" Di Yunfeng just asked, in fact, he knew very well in his heart, where is there a father who treats his son as a cow?
Pontin shook his head: "No, no, don't you think that kid looks like me?"
Di Yunfeng and Mu Xueyi both nodded, Pang Ding was short, fat and ugly, even if he married a beautiful daughter-in-law, he would not be able to give birth to a handsome boy like a cabbage.
"What about the cabbage boy, I picked it up, I usually don't like to talk, people are small and have a lot of strength, but I have to be sick in life, and I have a seizure every night, hey...... If I hadn't seen him do his usual work, I would have let him go a long time ago. His little salary is not worth the doctor's medicine. ”
Pang Ding was reluctant to talk about the cabbage, or he didn't care how the cabbage came and went, and after finishing speaking, he didn't wait for Di Yunfeng to ask again, and the other two guys beckoned the travelers to eat and stay.
"I rejoiced so much with this boy. Mu Xueyi said to Di Yunfeng.
Di Yunfeng nodded Mu Xue and frowned: "You know, whatever you like, I will satisfy you without hesitation." ”
"Then we'll go meet the boy. Mu Xueyi was interested, and pulled Di Yunfeng to the outside of the inn.
The firewood room is not next to the inn at all, if you want to get firewood, you have to go around to a few dilapidated buildings behind the inn, don't see the cabbage body is weak, but the strength is not small, he carries two large bundles of dry firewood, the firewood covers his eyes, he walks very slowly, he has no strength to put down and rest, but it will not stop for too long, the stove has no firewood, and if you don't carry the firewood back earlier, you will be scolded by the shopkeeper.
"In this era, at this age, it is rare to meet such a hard-working teenager. Di Yunfeng's eyes flickered, as if he saw his fourteen-year-old self.
"Go and help him. Mu Xueyi led Di Yunfeng to walk towards the young man in the wind and sand.
It became more and more difficult for the boy to walk against the wind, even if he had a lot of strength, but after all, he was still a child, and he had no flesh on his body, and he would feel some pain when he fell. Suddenly, he felt that the heavy dry wood in his hand had become as light as cotton...... Then the firewood was held high, and he finally saw Mu Xueyi and Di Yunfeng standing in front of him.
Di Yunfeng easily lifted the two bundles of firewood over his shoulders, and smiled at the young man: "Boy, you have lived for more than ten years, and you are going to have good luck today." ”
The young man didn't like Di Yunfeng, he glanced at Di Yunfeng and looked at Mu Xueyi on the side, he liked Mu Xueyi relatively much.
Mu Xueyi laughed softly: "Young man, they all call you cabbage, could it be your real name?"
The boy shook his head, and spoke.
Di Yunfeng said: "I think the cabbage is very delicious." ”
The young man looked at Di Yunfeng coldly, and opened his mouth to declare: "I am not called cabbage. ”
Di Yunfeng glanced at his lips and said bluntly, "I don't like this kid's attitude. ”
Mu Xueyi squeezed Di Yunfeng away and said, "If you don't like it, just move the firewood in, I'll talk to him, this young man likes it very much." ”
Even though the young man was wrapped in a scarf, he must have blushed, and a touch of shyness flashed in his eyes, and he said to Mu Xueyi: "I have a name, my name is Ai Qing." ”
"Love?" Di Yunfeng couldn't help laughing, and asked jokingly: "Boy, you are so young, do you have any hair?"
Ai Qing's eyes were horizontal, and she reached out to grab the dry firewood in Di Yunfeng's hand: "Give it back to me!"
Di Yunfeng became interested, he deliberately raised the firewood above his head, as if teasing a child: "Come, if you can touch this firewood, I will return it to you." ”
Although Ai Qing is not tall, his light skills are really good, he touched the yellow sand on his toes, and flew into the air!
Di Yunfeng's arm span didn't move, and he threw the two bundles of firewood weighing fifty or sixty catties from his left hand to his right hand.
Ai Qing grabbed the air for the first time, but she didn't stop there, only to see her turn over in the air, swinging her right hand back to grab again! Being able to change direction in the air proves that his body technique is already first-class, but unfortunately, Di Yunfeng is the Mount Tai that he will never be able to climb. Di Yunfeng was neither early nor late, but when he was about to touch it, he let go of the firewood in his hand, and when the firewood fell, he naturally couldn't catch it.
Ai Qing also pounced on the air for the second time, and this time, she confidently thought that she could reach it, but the probability was off, all her strength and balance were in vain, she could no longer maintain her body in the air, so she was about to fall to the ground!
He looked back and faced Di Yunfeng's playful face, and he was unconvinced: "You let go of me!"
Di Yunfeng said: "If I let you go now, you will definitely eat several mouthfuls of sand." ”
Ai Qing said stubbornly: "Then it doesn't matter to you, you let go of me!"
"Satisfy you over there. Di Yunfeng really let go of his hand, Ai Qing didn't pay attention, and the whole person fell to the ground, which must have hurt a lot, but he didn't shout, but clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and got up: "Come again!"
Di Yunfeng didn't wait for Ai Qing to stand up, he stretched out a finger and pressed it on his forehead, and with only one finger, he unloaded his strength.
"Okay, okay, are you really, it's embarrassing to bully the child?" Mu Xueyi pulled Ai Qing over, and was about to pat off the dust on his body for him, but Ai Qing grabbed her away, and said, "Pretend to be an orangutan, don't you care!" After that, he snatched the dry firewood from Di Yunfeng's hand and moved to the inn step by step, but he had just taken two steps, and before the foot raised in the third step had not yet been stepped on, one or two people stumbled, fell to the ground, and passed out.
......
......
The yellow sand was whistling, but the charcoal fire in the room was so warm that it made people sweat, Mu Xue sat on the edge of the bed with her face tight, looked at Ai Qing who was bloodless on the bed, and asked Di Yunfeng, who knew the pulse of his heart: "How is he?"
"She's terrible, maybe she won't live long. Di Yunfeng sighed lightly and sent his little hand of love into the quilt.
Mu Xueyi frowned: "She's just a little weak, isn't it good to recuperate?"
Di Yunfeng smiled indifferently: "Physical weakness is a kind of calamity, and it is difficult for martial artists to get through, let alone such a weak little girl as her?"
Di Yunfeng just explored, and found that Ai Qing not only had the best fire spirit root in her body, but also the martial bones with excellent qualifications, she was a talent made in heaven for immortal martial arts practitioners, no wonder she was young and had such great strength.
"Huh, what? You say...... Is she a girl?" Mu Xueyi was taken aback.
Di Yunfeng nodded and said, "It's a boy, but it's a girl on the pulse, there's no doubt about it." ”
"No wonder he was born so delicate. Mu Xueyi liked Ai Qing even more, she pulled Di Yunfeng, and said longingly: "I want to accept her as a closed disciple......
Di Yunfeng shook his head and sighed: "Her debilitation is not an ordinary physical failure at all, and I can't cure her with medical skills." ”
"But that's what I want......" Mu Xueyi begged with big watery eyes.
Di Yunfeng is very soft-hearted, even if Mu Xueyi doesn't ask him for help, he will find a way to let this little girl live.
"Dad, mother...... Dad! Mother ...... "Ai Qing has a nightmare."
Mu Xueyi was very pitiful, so she had to use her immortal qi Ai Qing's heart stabilized. Ai Qingxu had a good dream, and after a few sobs, she regained her calm again, and at this time she was breathing evenly, and she was already sleeping normally.
Di Yunfeng wiped Ai Qing's forehead lightly, and said in surprise: "This girl hasn't even stepped on the martial arts, and she ushered in the first decay of heaven and man, and this matter is rare in real Wudang." ”
Mu Xueyi looked at Ai Qing and said distressedly: "I don't know what decay is, but you must have a way to solve it, right?"
Di Yunfeng sighed: "There are many ways, but none of them are completely certain. She has martial bones, but even if she is sent to the True Martial Kingdom to cultivate from scratch, it will take hundreds of years to advance to the death vein, and with her declining appearance, she will not survive for two years at most. ”
When he said this, a spiritual power was lightly stored between his fingers, and it entered his body through Ai Qing's eyebrows, and it can be seen that his face immediately improved. He added: "It's very simple, the method of resisting physical failure with vitality is the most stupid, but it is the most effective. ”
"Has she always had to rely on spiritual power to survive?" asked Mu Xueyi.
Di Yunfeng shook his head and said: "Spiritual power is just to delay the process of her withering, if you want to cure the root cause, you still have to survive the first decline of heaven and man." Now that it's too late to let her practice martial arts, you might as well let her cultivate immortals and use her spiritual power to fight against the natural decay...... Even if she will have loose flesh and brittle bones due to her physical weakness in the future, then she can live as a monk. ”
"Crispy bones, meat floss...... How can it be so good to eat?" Mu Xue was puzzled.
Di Yunfeng saw that the atmosphere was depressed, so he also quipped: "That's right, people who fail to survive the decay and tribulation, the bones will become very brittle, and the meat will be drooping and loose, just like the crispy bones we eat, crunchy, and the meat floss tastes!"
Mu Xueyi was also amused by Di Yunfeng's words, and asked again: "Then don't I have to take good care of her?" Otherwise, if you touch her lightly, her flesh will fall off and her bones will break." ”
Di Yunfeng pursed her lips and thought for a moment before saying: "With her genius physique, as long as the Xianmen has the resources, Bigu does not eat the fireworks of the world, and reduces her metabolism and calms her breath as much as possible, then she can live for a hundred and eighty years before the decline comes, I think I should also be busy with the business at hand at that time, and then I will move the Colorful Gate to Zhenwu, and by the way, let the big guys of Zhenwu Country help think of a way." He patted his chest and said proudly: "She can be saved, but she can't die, I said!"
Seeing that Di Yunfeng was so confident, Mu Xueyi was much more relieved, she pushed Di Yunfeng to the door again, and said, "Now there is nothing for you here, now it is a private space for girls and girls." ”
Di Yunfeng resolutely refused, but took Mu Xueyi's hand and solemnly persuaded: "Xue'er, you can't fall ......"
"What kind of nonsense do you want, I'm going to help her change her clothes!"
Mu Xueyi unceremoniously withdrew Di Yunfeng from the door, and with a "snap", she covered the door heavily.
......
......
Early the next morning.
The sky was slightly bright, the wind and sand had subsided, and the earth was covered with white frost and snow.
Frost in late autumn, remnants of old years, lonely birds flying outside, not the rooster, but the falcon hovering in the sky.
The desert morning, though cold, is the most wonderful time of the day.
Ai Qing rose from the bed, and she had to leave even though the bed was warm and pleasant.
Wake up early in the morning, chop wood, fetch water, feed the horses...... If you don't do a shopkeeper, you have to say it.
"Small
Sister, are you up?" Mu Xueyi was the only one in the room, she saw that she came to the side of the bed and gently pressed Ai Qing back, covered the futon and said, "You are still sick, take care of yourself." ”
Ai Qing found that her clothes had been completely changed, her hair had been put down, and her daughter's identity was self-evident, she angrily hammered Mu Xueyi's hand away: "You go away!" After speaking, she was about to get out of bed again.
Mu Xueyi learned Di Yunfeng's technique, and used her index finger to put a little on Ai Qing's eyebrows, and then restrained her strength and irritable temper: "Hey, tenderness like water must be cultivated from a young age, otherwise you won't be able to marry in the future?"
Ai Qing was really helpless, she bit her lip and said, "I have no grievances with you, why do you want to target me!"
Mu Xueyi pressed it to the bed again, and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if my little sister is rebellious, when I am as old as you, it will be bad if I am wilder and naughty but unreasonable." ”
Ai Qing turned her head, she listened to this truth.
Mu Xueyi smiled again: "You fell ill yesterday, and it took us a lot of effort to pull you back from the ghost gate." ”
Ai Qing snorted lightly: "That's not because you want to humiliate me, I will get sick as soon as I use my internal strength......" She paused, shrunk her head into the quilt, and said in a thin voice: "But thank you, my illness is not curable......"
Mu Xueyi gently ripped off the quilt, pinched Ai Qing's chin ambiguously and said, "Little girl, how about being my apprentice?" ”
"Don't do it!" Ai Qing pulled back the quilt and refused.
"Why?" Mu Xueyi pulled away the quilt again and said proudly: "Do you know how many people in this world are rushing to be my apprentice?"
Ai Qing simply turned over: "You are indeed gentle and good-looking, but I am different from others, and I will never be confused by your appearance!"
"Hey, I said that you little girl, the beauty of birth is a gift from your parents, is there anything wrong?" Mu Xueyi crossed her waist and cried and laughed.
"Then why are you taking advantage of me while I'm asleep and taking advantage of me?" Ai Qing reproached.
"Hahaha......" Mu Xue laughed cross-legged.
"What are you laughing at?" Ai Qing's face was slightly red.
Mu Xueyi said bluntly: "As far as your small body, except that there is no handle underneath, what is the difference between you and a boy in other places?"
"You ......"
Mu Xueyi approached Ai Qing's red little face again, and warned softly: "Little girl, if you don't pay attention to the details now, you will be destined to be flat in the future, and you won't be able to come back." ”
She stroked Ai Qing's hair again, and promised: "If you worship me as a teacher, I guarantee that you will become a great beauty with both ability and political integrity, and peerless elegance!"
"Although I am grateful for your life-saving grace, I will not share the milk of the body! ”
Ai Qing said in a very serious tone, even if Mu Xue said all the good things, she didn't want to appreciate it. She rolled over and got out of bed, retrieved her old coarse cloth clothes, and said, "I'm going to feed the horses." ”
Mu Xueyi only sighed lightly, only to know that she was going to accept others as apprentices one night, it was indeed a little abrupt, she grabbed Ai Qing and said: "Little girl, you don't like me as a master, forget it, why don't you stay and feed yourself first and then feed the horses?"
Ai Qinghu raised Mu Xueyi suspiciously, the room was empty, where was there anything to eat?
"It's delicious!"
Di Yunfeng shouted and pushed the door in, and his mobile phone dragged three bowls of rice balls, each with a poached egg in the rice balls.
"Little girl, you are already deficient in qi and blood, and if you don't eat breakfast in the morning, it will hurt your body even more. ”
Ai Qingfeng's eyes lit up, stared at the big bowl of rice balls and said, "There is only coarse grain flour in the Huangsha Inn, how did you find the rice ball fabric?"
Di Yunfeng touched his nose, put the big bowl of rice balls in front of Ai Qing, and said with a smile: "You don't care where I found it, it's not poisonous anyway, I don't believe you eat it." ”
"I'll eat first, I'll eat first. Mu Xueyi had never seen this kind of human delicacy, and wanted to snatch the rice balls in front of Ai Qing, but Di Yunfeng gently patted her hand and scolded lightly: "You still want to accept others as apprentices, you don't look like a teacher." ”
Mu Xueyi stuck out her tongue, took a bowl of rice balls by herself, and said to Ai Qing: "Good apprentice, for the teacher, I will help you taste whether it is poisonous or not." After speaking, he picked up a rice ball and stuffed it into his mouth
"Beware of burning!"
Di Yunfeng reminded him that Mu Xueyi had already opened her mouth and bit it!
"Ah...... It's so hot!" Mu Xueyi hurriedly spit out the rice balls back into the bowl, sticking out her tongue, pitiful, and looking at Di Yunfeng complainingly.
Di Yunfeng ran his fingers around Mu Xueyi's tongue and gloated: "Look, you are exactly the same as Haha at this moment!"
Mu Xueyi was ruthless and bit Di Yunfeng's finger, but she cried "ouch" and cried: "My teeth are ......"
"It's been so long, don't you know that everything on my body that looks like a pillar is as hard as iron?" Di Yunfeng smiled and stuffed a white pill into Mu Xueyi's mouth.
Mu Xueyi was still unconvinced, and habitually wanted to flirt and scold, but at this time, a slight sobbing sound came from the side of the bed...... The person who cried his nose was naturally Ai Qing.
Why is she crying?
Ai Qing was holding the rice balls alone, squatting on the side of the bed, and sobbing after taking a bite.
"It's all your fault, you have to quarrel with me, and I will leave out my prospective apprentices in the cold. Mu Xueyi glared at Di Yunfeng, walked to the bedside, Di Yunfeng grabbed her, and said softly: "Let her cry for a while, this child is homesick." ”
Mu Xueyi let out a very sensible "oh", and quietly exited the room with Di Yunfeng.
If it weren't for the fragmented family changes, how could people forget to shed tears?
