Chapter 19: The Weak Suffer the Strong
Xiao He opened his eyes slightly, saw the thatch on the roof, and then turned his head slightly to look around, it was a dilapidated wooden wall, and he was also confused in his heart, and couldn't help but murmur in his mouth:
"Hmm~ Where am I??Isn't it already dead?ah~ It hurts, why do you still feel pain even when you're dead......"
At this time, he was lying on a simple wooden bed, with large and small cloth bands tied to his body, but the nerves in his body began to feel pain constantly, and the pain made him grin slightly.
The people outside the room seemed to notice a hint of movement, worried about disturbing Xiao He on the bed, so they walked in slowly.
I saw that it was a woman in gray plain clothes, and the years had carved marks on her face, but the kindness on her face also resolved the uneasiness in Xiao He's heart.
After seeing them look at each other and smile slightly, the woman walked directly to Xiao He and covered the broken quilt on his body.
She also seemed to see the doubt in Xiao He's eyes, and before he could speak, she said herself:
"Little brother, don't be afraid, this is my home. Last night, when my husband came back from hunting, he happened to pass by a river, and saw you lying there, so he took you back to his home, and did a simple treatment and bandaging of your wounds. You have serious injuries, so you can rest assured that you can recuperate here and wait until you get better. ”
"No, thank you, I still have to continue cultivating" Xiao He shook his head after hearing this.
So, he propped himself on the bed with his right hand and gritted his teeth to remember.
In his heart, he didn't want to lie in bed all the time, so he slacked off the two months of cultivation in this forging.
Seeing this, the woman was also anxious, and immediately bent down to gently help him up, and motioned him not to move, turned around and poured the boiled medicinal soup over, and said:
"This is made of purple spirit fairy grass, which has a healing effect on the injured, and when my husband was injured in hunting, he could be cured after drinking it for two or three days. ”
"Thank you sister-in-law for saving your life, my name is Xiaohe, dare to ask your surname?"
"My name is He Yuxian, and now I have no children and no daughters under my knees, so it's a little uncomfortable to call my sister-in-law, just call me Sister He. Come, drink the medicine~"
Seeing him nod slightly, He Yu smiled stiffly at first, and then directly supported his back with his right hand, and slowly sent the bowl to his mouth with his left hand.
Xiao He also drank it in one go, and she wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, then turned around silently and put the bowl away.
"Why did Sister He's family come to live in this barren mountain and wilderness? I guess I should have something on my mind, can I tell the kid? If so, I will definitely do my best. Looking at He Yuxian's lonely back, Xiao He couldn't help but ask.
"Hey, some things are still not good to outsiders, we have no relatives and no reason, not to mention that you are still down to this point, and it is not good to get involved in trouble. You just take care of your injuries, don't worry about it. ”
"Who said that there are no relatives and no reason, if I hadn't met you two, I might have thrown my corpse into the wilderness, you are my own big brother and sister, your life-saving grace, boy, I will never forget. Maybe there are some things that are inconvenient for the two of you to do, and you are afraid of having worries, but I am different, I can come and go alone, why not?" Xiao He also said with a serious face, and then smiled slightly.
Looking at the sincerity on Xiaohe's face, He Yuxian was also moved helplessly, and said:
"Well, since you've said so, I'll tell you. Didn't you just ask me why I live in this wilderness? To tell you the truth, in fact, the two of us were forced into this situation by thieves. Hey~"
But she began to cry as she spoke, and then wiped away the tears with the sleeve of her hand, and continued:
"It happened two years ago, when our family was still living in Fengping Town, raising a young son, my husband often went to the mountains to hunt, and I was responsible for washing and cooking at home. It's just that the good times didn't last long, and a group of thieves suddenly came to the town and snatched my young son away. On that day, my husband happened to go up the mountain to hunt and did not return, and when he came back and heard the bad news, he directly went to find the gang of thieves, but they were so numerous that he was seriously injured. I desperately knelt down and begged for mercy, suffered as much as I could, and took out all the valuable things in the house before I ransomed him from the thieves. In the end they drove us away again, and we had no choice but to flee into the deep mountains and forests. Woo woo woo~"
"Ahh
Xiao He was already angry before he could finish hearing this, his hands were clenched into fists, and red blood began to ooze from the upper mouth of his hands.
Looking at He Yuxian, who was crying, he was also full of emotion in his heart, and he didn't expect that the weak in this world would be bullied like this, and he was not even qualified to have the simplest and ordinary life, and his relatives were separated, but he watched and could not do anything.
Thinking back to myself, I have a mother who loves me, and Miss Zhao who I like. If he doesn't grow up and become stronger quickly, if he is suddenly snatched and persecuted by others one day, he can only watch, powerless, and live in the shadow created by the thugs.
At this moment, Xiao He, who was sitting quietly on the bed, had already realized that the flame of becoming stronger had already ignited in his heart, and his delicate face instantly became extremely resolute.
At the same time, he himself secretly decided to help the two people in front of him and reunite their family of three.
So, he asked directly:
"Sister He, are those people still in Fengqing Town? Can you tell me the strength and number of those people? I'll help you bring more people back, so that your family of three will no longer be bullied, I will help you with this!"
"Little brother Xiaohe, this is absolutely unacceptable. What if the tower takes your life? We don't want you to drip this pot of oil and water, otherwise we will be ashamed for the rest of our lives" He Yu stopped crying first, wiped away his tears, shook his head and persuaded him.
"It's okay, I'm a two-week heaven peak swordsman now, and it should be three weeks in the near future. It's very strong, maybe those thieves aren't enough for me to cheer up, so they were all fucked down. ”
As he spoke, he directly took out the steel sword from the ring, and then the soul power poured in, and a burst of sword wind burst out in an instant.
Seeing this, Heyu was also quite shocked, and he didn't expect that the young man in front of him would have such ability.
Still, she shook her head slightly, turned her back to him, and sighed.
Xiao He saw her turn around and stop talking, and pleaded again:
"Sister He, don't worry, I know how to do things by one person, and I won't affect others. Even if I don't succeed in going, at least they won't want to catch me, just tell me, don't you want to be reunited with your family?"
At this moment, He Yuxian also began to be a little entangled, afraid that Xiao He would be injured again because of this, and even lose his life, and his conscience would be difficult for the rest of his life. At the same time, she also has some expectations, hoping that the teenager in front of her can regain his flesh and blood and reunite his family.
However, she still hesitated for a moment and said:
"There are a total of fourteen or fifteen people in that group, I heard that the leader of this person is also a swordsman-level powerhouse, he should have the appearance of four or five weeks, and the rest of the people should be some bastards with swords, but I have never heard of any other strong people. In the past two years, the two of us have also been inquiring about the news, but we are afraid that the news will not be accurate, and it will harm your life. It's not that my sister doesn't believe in your strength, and I'm really afraid that something will happen to you. ”
As soon as He Yuxian finished speaking, a man suddenly rushed into the door, with a striking sword mark on his cheek, lean and carrying a hare in his hand.
At this time, he was obviously a little angry, and directly scolded He Yuxian who was crying:
"Why is it that you woman are not at all restless, and don't you tell you not to tell anyone else about this? You see that this little brother is hurt like this, and if there is any more long-term and short-term, you and I are both sinners, and we will not have peace for the rest of our lives. ”
As soon as the man said it, she seemed to know that she was wrong, buried her head lower, and even hugged her head and cried.
Seeing this, the man also realized that he had said too much, put down the prey in his hand, squatted down, patted her back with his left hand, and hugged her head with his right hand.
She also felt a hint of warmth, so she buried her head deeply, and the man began to shed tears.
"Uh~ that ......"
Xiao He was also very moved when he saw the two people hugging each other tightly in front of him, he was also very envious of such love in this world, and at the same time deeply sympathized with their suffering.
In the face of this kind of scene, under normal circumstances, Xiao He would still choose to avoid it, but he can't leave now, which is obviously a little embarrassing.
The man also realized that there was still a Xiaohe in the house, so he hurriedly got up and introduced:
"Oh~ I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Li Tianpei, that is, her husband. Little brother, don't care, don't take some things to heart, we have already accepted our fate, and you don't have to do anything to avoid trouble. ”
"Brother Li doesn't have to be like this, your life-saving grace, the kid is difficult to repay in this life, don't worry, I won't come nonsense. Let me tell you the truth, this time I came out to experience on the orders of my master, and I was caught by a soul beast on the way before I fell here. This time, I plan to help you regain your beloved son, and secondly, to improve yourself. My master is a sword immortal powerhouse who is admired by thousands of people, and those few little ones are not enough to move a finger of him. ”
After speaking, Xiao He directly patted his chest with his right hand, but he didn't expect to touch the wound and shouted
"Ah~Pain~"
Seeing Xiao He swearing like this, he believed it at first, and then the two of them became a little skeptical, the scene was suddenly a little embarrassing, and the air suddenly became quiet.
After a while, Li Tianpei said to him:
"Little brother first take care of his injuries, and then make plans when his injuries get better. If you really plan to help the two of us, then as a man, I naturally can't watch you go out and live a peaceful life for us, and I can't stand idly by. Thank you in place of me, thank you very much!"
After that, he knelt down directly, but was held by Xiao He with one hand.
Seeing this, He Yu hurriedly walked over, and also held him up, and grabbed his clothes tightly, tears of gratitude flowed from the corners of his eyes.
