It didn't take long for a strange smell to waft out of the kitchen.

Yun Xiu hadn't eaten a few bites earlier, and after a long day's journey, she was already so hungry that her chest was pressed against her back.

He stole a glance back at the child, hoping he hadn't heard the awkward voice.

Who knew that he was startled when he turned around, the child was looking at him with blazing eyes, and saw him grinning at him in his eyes, a mouthful of neat white teeth shining, and said thoughtlessly: "My mother's cooking is very delicious, especially the broth she makes, and I have to drink three bowls every time." After speaking, he licked his lips, looking greedy.

Yun Xiu nodded, and said thoughtfully: "It smells so tempting, and it must taste even more delicious." ”

When the child heard his words, he grinned again, and suddenly turned his head and shouted at the kitchen, "Mother, is the meal ready?" Brother Yun is hungry. ”

"Don't ......" Yun Xiu just said a word, the child had already finished shouting, turned around and smiled at him, making him blush.

"Alright, go see if your dad is back. ”

The woman's voice came from afar, and I don't know if it was smoky, but her voice sounded a little muffled.

"Oh!"

The child obediently got up, ran to the window and poked his head out to look at it for a long time, then turned his head and shouted, "Daddy hasn't come back yet!"

"Then you can bring some snacks to the guests first!"

"Oh!"

Yun Xiu immediately panicked when she heard this, she was here to find medicinal herbs, how could she eat and drink at other people's homes, and hurriedly said: "No need, I'm not very hungry yet." ”

The child ignored him at all, ran upstairs by himself, and not long after, he ran down again, handed a small wooden box in his arms to Yun Xiu, and said, "Brother Yun, give you a snack!"

Yun Xiu was really a little embarrassed, and politely refused: "I really don't need to, I'm not hungry at all!"

"I heard it bark just now. The child stared at his stomach and wondered, "Eat." I know it's hard to be hungry. After saying that, he stuffed the wooden box to him, and ran to the corner to play with the puppet.

Yun Xiu hugged the small wooden box and cried and laughed, but she was really hungry. There were some errors in the previous estimates, it took almost twice as long, and I was in a hurry and didn't bring dry food. Next, I have to climb the mountain to find medicinal herbs, and there is still a long way to go back, and I can't do it without enough physical strength.

Thinking of this, he said loudly: "Then it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate, thank you Mrs. Long." ”

"It's just some homemade rough snacks, as long as Yun Gongzi doesn't dislike it!"

Yun Xiu opened the wooden box, and sure enough, there was a small half box of pastries in it, which looked extremely attractive in all colors, and he picked up a piece of pastry and said to the child who was looking at him, "Why don't we eat together?"

The child swallowed his saliva, shook his head and said, "I'm tired of eating these, Brother Yun, you can eat it." ”

Yun Xiu put the pastry in his hand into the wooden box, and said with a smile: "If you don't eat it, I won't eat it!" After speaking, he put the wooden box on the coffee table beside him, looking like he had made up his mind.

At this moment, the child suddenly threw away the wooden carving and stood up.

"I'll just say ......it," Yun Xiu was about to invite again with a smile, when the child suddenly sped up and rushed over, grabbed the piece of pastry and stuffed it directly into Yun Xiu's mouth.

Yun Xiu was caught off guard by the pastry, and was suddenly shocked and angry, glaring at the child with an expectant face and saying, "You...... What for?"

The child licked his lips and urged, "Eat quickly, I can eat if you eat." ”

"What?" Yun Xiu was stunned when she heard this, obviously not understanding the meaning of this sentence too much.

Seeing that the other party did not move, the child grabbed another piece of pastry and stuffed it into his mouth.

Yun Xiu hurriedly stood up and said, "No need, it's not early, I should go." After speaking, he raised his voice and said, "Mrs. Long, thank you for your hospitality, there are still important things to do, so I will leave first." ”

The child looked at the pastry that had fallen on the ground, his eyes flashed fiercely, and he threw himself at him with a strange scream, opened his mouth and bit his arm.

Yun Xiu was startled, flashed to the side and frowned, "I'm not welcome if you do this again." ”

Because of his childhood, Yun Xiu has never liked children very much, if he wasn't at someone's house now, and seeing that he was still well-behaved before, he would have kicked it a long time ago, where would he have a chance to pounce again.

"Why is Yun Gongzi in a hurry to leave, my grandson will be back soon, let's have a meal together and then leave." ”

A gloomy voice sounded behind him.

Yun Xiu didn't have time to turn back, and her figure rushed towards the window.

But he is fast, and someone is faster. I saw a figure flash by, slamming the window shut, it was actually the child.

The woman was standing there with a spoon and smiling at him.

All this is too sudden, and it is too weird, Rao is Yunxiu is bold or inevitably a little flustered, and said: "I won't eat the meal, I still have important things to do, and it is really inconvenient to stay for a long time." ”

The woman stepped forward and said, "I don't know what is important to Yun Gongzi, maybe the little woman can help you think of a way." ”

"I'm in a hurry to pick Qixia grass to save people, I really don't have time to delay. Yun Xiu replied as she quietly moved towards the door.

The woman blinked when she heard the 'Qixia Grass' eyes, glanced at the child who was also thoughtful, and said, "Could it be that Yun Gongzi's friend is possessed by evil spirits?"

Yun Xiu replied, "It's not much of an evil, it's just some vicious Gu techniques. In addition, he didn't have enough strength to damage the other party's muscles and veins, so he wanted to come to Yanxia Mountain to try his luck. ”

Hearing this, the woman nodded and said, "That's right!" The main effect of Qixia Grass is to drive away evil spirits and protect the body, concentrate and refine the soul, ordinary people only need to take one plant to prevent all evils, it is a spiritual grass that everyone in the world wants, and it is naturally easy to use it to deal with Gu poison. However, as far as the little woman knows, it is not effective in repairing damaged tendons......" At this point, she changed her words and asked curiously, "I wonder what friend Yun Gongzi has suffered a great disaster, and it is worth your life to come to this Yanxia Mountain?"

Yun Xiu had already retreated to the door at this time, and only needed to take one more step to escape from this strange place, and his heart was also slightly settled, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency doesn't care about it, thank you Mrs. Long for the tea, and I will say goodbye first!" He had already secretly raised his breath and was ready to go, and as soon as the words fell, the whole person suddenly rose into the air and flew outside.

He was afraid that the other party would catch up, so he flew at full speed, and only turned his head to look behind him until he was far away in one breath, and he was suddenly stunned at this sight.

He thought that he had escaped this time, even if he didn't escape a thousand zhang away, there must have been a hundred zhang. But looking back now, it seems that it is still near the bamboo building, and even the wooden door that was kicked open by him before is still shaking gently.

"What's going on?" Yun Xiu was surprised, suddenly there was a buzzing sound in his head, and then a feeling of dizziness that was exactly the same as when he just stepped into this place hit, and his whole body suddenly became stiff, and soon he couldn't even blink his eyes, and in the end, the whole person stood in place like a stone sculpture, only the eyeballs could barely turn.

If he didn't know that he had been tricked at this time, he would really have failed the teachings of the Baili Divine Doctor.

He remembered that Master Baili Xi once said after getting drunk that there are not only human beings in this world, and many mountain spirits and monsters are hidden in the bodies of some seemingly ordinary ordinary people, working and living with humans. Because they live much longer than humans, all of them often change their appearance. Most of the mountain spirits and monsters are harmless, in addition to not being born, old, sick and dead like humans, they will also have seven emotions and six desires, joys, angers and sorrows, and even to some extent, they are more affectionate and righteous than humans. There are many mountain spirits and monsters who have experienced love in the world, because they are reluctant to love their lovers or brothers and sisters in this life, they will choose to wait near the reincarnation of the other party, wait for him (her) to grow up, and then meet him/her, know each other or fall in love, and finally grow old together. That's why someone will always give you a sense of déjà vu, as if you've known each other for a long time. Of course, there are also some mountain spirits and monsters who don't like to live with humans, but choose to concentrate on cultivation in inaccessible places, hoping that one day they will be able to ascend to the Tao......

At first, Yun Xiu didn't believe these words, thinking that these were just the nonsense of the master's Baili Divine Doctor after drinking. In his opinion, these stories like Arabian Nights can only be used to coax children, at most fooling some ignorant spring girls.

But now in the face of what he saw, he was also a little shaken. Because just as his thoughts were flying, the bamboo building underwent earth-shaking changes.
