Chapter 17: The Little Girl Who Ran Away

Creation of Shenzhou, Bai family.

"Xiaobai, didn't your grandfather tell you to practice boxing with him, why are you still here. ”

A man with a bunched hair with some stubble on his face asked without raising his head while carving wood, but his tone was not very serious, mainly because he wanted to talk to his son about something.

The man who spoke tied his hair, his face was a little scumbag, but his eyes were deep, although he was middle-aged, his appearance was a little chic, and his body exuded a vicissitudes of temperament.

He was tall, but what didn't match his tall stature was that he was holding a small carving knife in his hand, and he was carefully carving a small wooden figure, and he was talking to Xiaobai on the side while carving wood.

After Xiaobai heard the man's words, he didn't answer in a hurry, but turned the book in his hand back to a page, and opened his mouth slowly, with a childish voice:

"No, I'm going to read. ”

The man with the bundled hair didn't care whether he practiced boxing with his grandfather or not, he just laughed, the carving knife in his hand still didn't stop, and said:

"You're really interesting, you know this whole world, how many people are qualified to be taught by your grandfather?"

Xiao Baitou didn't raise his eyebrows, his eyes looked carefully at the text of the book, and after a while, he said casually:

"You're still a sword god, and now it's not the same as carving wood with a knife. ”

The man laughed again, and didn't care what Xiaobai said, he put away the carving knife in his hand, took the carved little wooden figure, stood up, trotted in front of Xiaobai, shook the wooden figure, and said proudly: "How about it, Dad's technique, is it amazing." ”

He paused, and then said proudly: "How about it, do you want my father to make one for you." ”

Xiaobai was still the same as before, his eyelids were not raised, his eyes continued to stare at the book, he stretched out his hand and waved it like a fly, and said, "Dad, you said that you are not annoying, I am seven years old." ”

He flipped through a page of the book, and then said, "Where is there a seven-year-old who still plays with little wooden people?" ”

The man looked at his old-fashioned son, and he was happy, and he smiled and said, "Yes, yes, Xiaobai, you are right." ”

He laughed as he spoke, looking a little unbeaten.

Xiaobai sighed, of course he knew why his father was laughing, he was not annoyed, and turned another page of the book.

Then this one big and one small, just like that, in the courtyard, one continued to carve wood, and the other continued to read.

A quarter of an hour later, an earth-shattering shout was heard from a distance, and the man who was still in the yard with a carving knife to perfect the little wooden figure heard this sound, and ran away in fright, but for a moment, he was no longer visible in the courtyard.

Xiao Bai glanced at the figure that ran faster than the rabbit, looked disdainful, and said:

"Return the sword god. ”

......

Then Xiaobai found that he was being dragged up by someone carrying the clothes on his back, and then the hand that dragged him up was turned, and the two of them stared at each other with such big eyes.

......

Xiao Bai looked loveless, he looked at the red old face in front of him, and said softly: "Grandpa, can you not drag me up when you talk to me." ”

The old man, whose face was flushed with anger, didn't answer him at all, and shouted: "Why don't you come to practice boxing! The old man has been waiting for you for a quarter of an hour!"

Xiaobai was not afraid of the old man in front of him at all, he held his hands and said in a serious voice: "Grandpa, can't you just let me read a good book." What's the point of fighting and killing all day long? ”

When the old man heard this, his neck straightened up: "Read a fart book!

After speaking, he walked out of the yard with a reluctant face.

......

When the old man carried Xiaobai away, a beautiful woman came out of the house, and the man who had just oiled the soles of her feet behind her tugged at her sleeve, just like a child who was afraid of losing her parents.

The man cautiously stretched his neck in the direction where the old man left, and whispered: "Daughter-in-law, is our father far away, your perception is stronger than mine, hurry up and take a look." ”

The woman looked resentful, slapped the man's hand away, and said, "Dad is really, let him read if our son wants to read, what's wrong with that." ”

"You must get a family of more than a dozen people, and each one is happy when they fight and kill. ”

Then the more she spoke, the more dissatisfied she became, and she stretched out her slender hand and twisted it fiercely around her husband's waist.

"It's all your fault! Otherwise, our son can't even read, it's not that you are too cowardly to give advice to the old man!"

The man's face turned green with pain, and he waved his hand and begged for mercy: "Madame, Madame, Madame, if you have something to say." ”

"As for the old man's temper, I went to persuade him not to beat me to death. ”

The woman continued to twist until the man's nose and eyebrows were almost clumped, and then she shook off her hand, but her face was still not good.

Then she looked at the direction in which the two of them were leaving.

After his wife let go of his hand, the man rubbed his waist, which was still aching, while looking at the direction where his old man and son were leaving, and said coldly:

"Who let him be born in our Bai family? ”

When the beautiful woman heard this, a trace of pain flashed in her eyes, and she turned her head and walked into the house.

Dongzhou border.

The boundary area between continents will be demarcated, called the continental boundary. Whether it is a city wall or a post station, it is used to ensure the safety of the continent, or to protect the goods of the continent from the influence of other regions, or to protect the forces where the continent is located from the encroachment of the forces of other continents.

Since the Zhou boundary is generally funded and built by the imperial court or larger sect forces, the Zhou boundary is generally garrisoned by the corresponding sect or imperial court.

Between Dongzhou and Jiuwu Shenzhou, in addition to the boundary naturally formed by the original mountain topography, the rest is bounded by the city wall. City gates were set up every few dozen miles between the city walls, and the sect forces and imperial court forces stationed there would check the passing pedestrians to ensure the safety of the continent, and if they were merchants or people who wanted to go to do business, they had to pay a part of the fee to pass.

On the main road a few miles away from the boundary of the continent, a little girl with a round chin is running all the way to Dongzhou, and her clothes are gorgeous, and she looks like the handiwork of a large family.

But no matter how gorgeous the clothes are, after they are used to wipe their mouths, they are all the same.

The two cuffs of the little girl's dress were stained with oil, and she didn't care, so she just jumped and ran forward.

The round chicken leg bag that she had been carrying on the little girl's back a few days ago was now not even a cloth left, and her big watery eyes were grunting as she ran, and then she began to talk to herself again:

"Hmph, Miss Ben is so smart, she has already planned it when she goes out. ”

......

"The first step is to get out first, and I've done that, I'm really good. ”

......

"The second step is to run from our house to Dongzhou. ”

......

"The third step is to come to Dongzhou to eat big chicken legs. ”

......

"Hahaha I'm so smart and the plan is seamless. ”

......

"I'm here for the chicken legs!"

......

The little girl shouted and wiped the saliva that was about to come out with her sleeve, and ran faster again
