Chapter 5 Young Encounters
The sky was covered with dark clouds, a strong wind, and then heavy rain. Mo Xue had nowhere to hide in the barren mountains and mountains, so she quickly became soaked. Because the rain was too strong and the wind was very strong, she really couldn't walk, so she had to find a big tree to shelter from the leeward. Although it can't avoid the rain at all, it can feel better.
Mo Xue hid under the big tree for more than an hour before the rain stopped and the sun came out. She stripped off her clothes, and wanted to change her clothes, but the clothes in the back basket were also wet, so she had no choice but to wrap herself around with a wet suit, and then wring all the other wet clothes and drying them in the sun. It's also thanks to the fact that she was baptized by the divine sword aura and reborn, so she can still stand up to this bit of dampness and cold.
Mo Xue has been away from home for five or six months, and the weather is getting colder and colder. She only had one piece of clothing around at this time, and she was naturally shivering with cold, but after the rain, there was wet wood all around, and she wanted to bake the fire but had no firewood.
Mo Xue couldn't bear it anymore after all, so she searched everywhere and finally got some dry firewood. She drew her sword, rubbed it against the stone, and sparked and set the leaves on fire. With the help of the fire, the wet wood was also roasted, and she finally lit a fire. Mo Xue hurriedly baked her clothes, put them on her body, and put the rest back in the bamboo basket. But at this time, it was dark again, and Mo Xue had to stay at night.
Mo Xue has been away from home for a few months, and at first there will be people in the places she passes by, but when she arrives, it will become inaccessible, and it may take ten days or eight days to meet a village or town, or even more than twenty days to meet one. So every time she came across a town or village, she had to buy some dry food to keep in store so that she wouldn't starve later. At the beginning of more than two months, her life was fine, and she was able to meet the town every few days, but there were fewer and fewer towns later, and life became more and more difficult. Fortunately, Mo Xue is powerful, and she can survive even in the inaccessible mountains. She can find mushrooms and fruits in the mountains, and occasionally open meat. When passing by rivers and lakes, catch fish, catch a few and bake them for a few days. In this way, she walked outside for five or six months without starving to death.
But strange to say, even if she wandered around the mountains, she could find her way out, and it was as if the black sword in her hand was guiding her, so that she would not get lost. As for those jackals, tigers and leopards, it seems that they have nothing to do with her, but when they meet, as long as she holds a sword, those guys will hide far away and dare not come forward.
Mo Xue leaned against the tree, and when the firewood was finished, she added firewood. She didn't want to keep adding firewood, so she cut a few large logs with her sword and set them up and burned them. At night, the woods were full of sounds, the chirping of insects, the cries of owls, and the sounds of other wild beasts, and they were strange to hear, but fortunately she was used to them now, so she was quite calm when she heard them. Mo Xue felt hungry, so she looked for it from the bamboo basket, but there was only a little dry food left, and her heart was cold: "It's over, I'm going to be hungry again." After she had eaten the dry food and drank two sips of water, she took her sword and curled up to sleep, and such a day was not a day or two for her.
The next morning, Mo Xue was still woken up hungry. She searched everywhere in the mountains for food, and finally found a few mushrooms, so she fried them on a stone slab, and after eating, she continued on her way. Mo Xue walked for another day, and finally saw a river, and there were fish in the river, which made her overjoyed and excited. She quickly took off her shoes, rolled up her trousers, and went down to the river to catch fish. She drew her sword and walked cautiously, her eyes were excellent, and her hands were so fast that the fish in the river were stabbed with her sword before they could react, and then thrown ashore. In this way, she caught a dozen fish, and then dissected them by the river, most of them were set up and roasted, and one or two took out the iron bowl and boiled soup and drank it. Except for a few fish, which were solved on the spot, the others were placed on a rack and baked until they were dry, and then put away.
Mo Xue walked on the mountain again, because there were no roads in many places, she drew her sword and cut through thorns and thorns all the way, opened a way out, and if she came across something that could be eaten, she would collect it, and when she wanted to eat it, she would take it out and eat it.
Mo Xue walked for more than ten days, and finally walked out of the mountains, and then saw a town. When she came to the town, the streets were full of people, and it was relatively lively. She came to a stall selling steamed buns and said, "Buy me two steamed buns." The seller of buns took two buns, and when Mo Xue touched her waist bag, she found that there was no one on her body, so she had to say, "I'm sorry!" and left.
Walking on the street, Mo Xue's stomach was growling with hunger, and she was suffering from no money, so she could only watch others eat, drooling and flowing. She complained in her heart: "It's better to be in the wilderness these days, you can still find something to eat outside, but now you have no money and can only watch." Alas, starve me to death. ”
With no money, she had to go to someone else's shop to beg for a bowl of water to drink, and then continued to starve. The sun in the sky seemed to be a little big, and she felt even more hungry in this sun, she looked at the sword in her hand, and said in her heart: "Alas, I really want to change you for food." ”
"Stop, stop!
Mo Xue was walking on the street, when she suddenly heard someone shouting behind her, so she turned around to look. I saw a person in front of me holding a paper bag in his hand and running hard, while a few people were chasing after him. Before Mo Xue could give way, the person in front of her pounced and flashed past her, and the person passed, but Mo Xue didn't know when there was an extra paper bag in her hand, it was still hot, she was stunned and motionless.
"He has an accomplice, catch him!" The men chased after him and pounced viciously at Mo Xue.
"Ahh
Mo Xue screamed, several people on the other side had already come over, and they were about to arrest her. She was so frightened that she ran away with the paper bag in both hands, still holding the sword in her hand. In this way, Mo Xue chased after the people who had passed before, and a few people behind her chased her like hungry tigers and sheep, so one after the other, she actually ran a few streets.
It's also strange to say, Mo Xue always involuntarily runs with the person in front, and it is estimated that the person in front of him is also quite depressed, after all, he is being pushed by Mo Xue. However, Mo Xue can indeed run, and the few people behind her are so tired that she still walks like flying, and finally gets rid of those people. She stopped in the alley, and the man in front of her was lying on the ground half dead from exhaustion.
"You, how can you run so much, and, still hold me down!" the man spoke, pointing to Moxue Road.
This person is about twenty years old, he is well dressed, he is dressed in a blue brocade robe, his hair is tied up, although his face is gray, but the place where there is no ash is very white and tender, it seems that he is a son.
Mo Xue replied: "I, how did I know that I could run so well, I still want to ask you, why did you put things in my hands, so that I was chased by them for a few streets." Mo Xue didn't feel tired when she started running, but now when she stopped, she actually sat on the ground, panting. She opened the paper bag as she spoke, and it turned out to be a roast chicken, and she was so happy that she didn't expect it to be a roast chicken.
"Give it to me!" the man pointed to the roast chicken. Mo Xue hurriedly hid the roast chicken under her armpit and said, "Why give it to you, it's mine now!" The man crawled over and was about to grab it, Mo Xue rolled and dodged, the man pounced again, Mo Xue stretched the roast chicken far away, and the man grabbed it with one hand, but he grabbed Mo Xue's chest with his other hand, and immediately felt the elasticity of his chest, so frightened that he withdrew his hand as if he was electrocuted, and the person instantly turned to the side and looked at Mo Xue in surprise. And Mo Xue was also shocked, she immediately kicked over, and the man was kicked. Before he could hide, Mo Xue kicked him several times in a row, and shouted in his mouth: "Stinky rascal, stinky rascal!"
"Okay, okay, you've kicked me so much, can you stop!" the man shouted.
Mo Xue was holding the roast chicken in one hand, but the sword had already fallen to the ground. She looked at the man angrily, and the man said: "I, I didn't know that you were a woman, I knew you were a woman, where would I be like this?" Mo Xue said angrily: "Who knows if you are a pervert, a stinky rascal!I, I will kill you with a sword!" Mo Xue said, put the roast chicken down, picked up the sword, got up and drew the sword, and stabbed at the man.
However, Mo Xue doesn't know martial arts at all, and he is also stabbing with a sword. The man had a little kung fu, he stood up directly after a roll, waited for Mo Xue's long sword to stab, on the side of his body, he grabbed the long sword with one hand, grabbed Mo Xue's hand holding the sword with the other hand, and pressed it down, the hand that held the long sword before let go of the long sword, and swept towards Mo Xue, and at the same time swept his feet, Mo Xue's whole person immediately fell to the ground, but the sword was already in the man's hand. Mo Xue fell on her back, with a sharp pain in her back, and when she came back to her senses, the roast chicken was also in the man's hands.
"Give me back the sword, and the roast chicken!" Mo Xue hugged the man's feet, refusing to let go. The man smiled: "If you have the ability, you can grab it." Mo Xue looked up at him with a smug look, and she was even more angry, but because she couldn't beat him, she stalked and didn't let go.
"Let go of me!" The man shook his foot vigorously, and Mo Xue was willing to let go, just holding his calf and not letting go. But the man didn't want to hurt her, otherwise the sword in his hand would be inserted directly.
"Are you going to let it go?"
"Don't let it go! I won't let it go until I die!" Mo Xue said categorically.
The man really had no choice, so he had to soften: "Okay, okay, I'll give you half of it." As soon as he took the sword, the chicken was split in half. He doesn't take advantage either, and the good meat on each side is about the same amount. He also said, "This sword is quite sharp." ”
The man thrust his sword into the ground, took half of the roast chicken in each hand, and said, "Which side do you want?" Mo Xue let go of her hand, stood up, took a copy casually, and stared at the man while gnawing on the roast chicken in her mouth. The man shook his head and leaned against the wall, eating roast chicken. Mo Xue hadn't eaten such a delicacy as roast chicken for a long time, and her mouth couldn't help but speed up, and soon all she had to eat was bones, and the man had finished eating.
Mo Xue pulled up her sword and said, "If I can't beat you, I want to kill you now, you stinky rascal, take advantage of me!" When the man heard this, his face was innocent, and he spread his hands and said: "Hey, how do I know that you are a woman, I want to know that you are a woman, I don't even bother to rob you, really!" Mo Xue said back: "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been chased like their dogs, and I would have been exhausted to death!" The man said again: "Okay, okay, good men don't fight with women, I'm leaving, don't mess with anyone in the future!"
"Let's go!" Mo Xue said with a pout.
"It's not a wait, I want to ask why the sword in your hand is so sharp, this sword has a name, is it called Tianxing Sword?" the man asked suddenly.
Mo Xue was also shocked when she heard the three words of Tianxing Sword: "How does he know that I have the Tianxing Sword in my hand?" But she is angry, so she said: "It's your business, this is my sword." ”
"Oh, just tell me. ”
Mo Xue saw that his eyes were full of longing, so he said, "This sword is called Tianxing Sword!"
"Skywalker Sword!" The man's eyes lit up, as if he had seen some treasure.
"You, what are you doing?" Mo Xue hugged the sword, for fear that he would come and grab it.
The man clapped his palms and said, "Oh, why didn't you say it earlier, we're here for a long time!"
Mo Xue asked, "What's wrong?"
The man went to take something from his arms, and Mo Xue was so frightened that he pointed his sword at him, and the man said, "What are you nervous about, I won't hurt you." After saying that, he took out a green grass from his bosom, and the grass was still glowing with a pale green light. The man asked her, "Do you know what this is?"
"How do I know, besides, what does your broken grass have to do with me?"
"Of course it does!"
"What's the relationship?"
"This grass is not ordinary grass, it is fairy grass!"
"Fairy grass?" Mo Xue's eyes widened, "And then?"
"Oh, this fairy grass was given to me by the gods of Jishi Mountain, and they asked me to take this fairy grass to Jishi Mountain to study!"
Mo Xue was taken aback when she heard this, and pointed at him and said, "You, are you going to Jishi Mountain?"
"That's right. ”
"What does that have to do with me?" Mo Xue deliberately pretended to be nothing.
"Of course it matters, the sword in your hand is called Tianxing Sword, isn't it?"
"Yes!"
"That's it, this sword is the sword of the main god of Jishi Mountain, he must have found you, didn't he? and then gave this sword to you, and asked you to take the sword and go to Jishi Mountain thousands of miles away, right?"
"You know all this?"
"Of course I know, I'm going to Jishi Mountain. ”
Mo Xue realized that she was not the only one who went up the mountain, and it seemed that there were other people. However, when the man accidentally caught her before, he was very unhappy, and his anger had not subsided, so he said: "Let's go our separate ways, even if today's incident has not happened!"
"I'm not with you!"
The man knew what she meant, and he must have been haunted by what had just happened, so he said: "Okay, I'm not right, I shouldn't take advantage of you, or you beat me out of anger, it's all right, we're not the kind of people who can't afford to be beaten!" After speaking, he stood still and closed his eyes.
Mo Xue saw that he was also a person with a true temperament, not to mention that he was the first to say the three words Jishi Mountain, where do ordinary people know, even if they know, they can't recognize the sword in their hands. Although he was touched just now, it was not good to really hit him, so he said: "That's okay, let's go together, but stay away from me!"
The man opened his eyes and jumped up happily: "Haha, I finally have a companion." ”
Mo Xue saw that he was so happy, and as soon as he was angry, the sword was returned to the sheath, and he took the scabbard and hit him on the ass. He was not angry, and said, "Good fight, good fight." Mo Xue was also crying and laughing when she saw him like this, and she was helpless.
"What's your name?"
"My name is Zhong Yun and I am from Chang'an. ”
"Chang'an? I heard that Chang'an is the center of the world and the most prosperous place in the world. ”
"Yes, Chang'an is the capital of the Central Plains Dynasty, and it is the most interesting place in the world. By the way, what's your name?
"I, my name is Mo Xue, and I am from Shu. ”
"It turned out to be a native of Shu, no wonder it was so beautiful, they all said that the beauty of Shu is like a cloud!"
As soon as Mo Xue heard him say this, her heart instantly became much more comfortable, and she said, "I finally said something human." ”
"Then where are you from Shu? Are you from Chengdu?"
"I'm not from Chengdu, my home is on the border of Shu, and it's from the west of Shu. ”
"That's it, hehe, I didn't expect to meet fellow travelers today, that's great, just have a companion on the road, relieve boredom. ”
"I don't care about today's affairs, but I don't want to mention it in the future, otherwise I'll let the fairy master pick your skin when I get to the mountain!"
"I know, I know, it's not that we don't understand, girls, thin-skinned. ”
"That's for sure, it's not you, your skin is thicker than the city wall, you take advantage of others and want to go together, shameless!"
"Okay, okay, I can't tell you anyway, let's hurry up!"
"By the way, I think you are also a child of a rich family, how did you become like this?"
"Alas, don't mention it, I came out of Chang'an, it was fine, but the farther and farther, the people became more and more scarce, and finally came to the previous town, there was still a lot of silver on me, but I was stolen as soon as I came in, I got it, I couldn't buy anything, I was so hungry that I had no choice but to grab a roast chicken, and then I bumped into you. ”
"You're embarrassed to say it, but you're a big man, and you're going to be stolen and embarrassed. ”
"Yes, yes, shame. If I had known I wouldn't come. My grandfather stopped me from coming in the first place, but I didn't listen, and it ended up like this. ”
Mo Xue looked disdainful, and said, "You, you are still honestly a rich kid, why did you run out?
Zhong Yun sighed and said, "Alas, I also heard from my grandfather that he also went to Jishi Mountain when he was young, and I also received a token like him, so I wanted to go out of curiosity." ”
"Your grandfather also went to Jishi Mountain?"
"Yes, otherwise why am I so familiar with the things of Jishi Mountain, my grandfather told me. ”
"So, you're saying that your fairy grass is a token?"
"Yes, what do you think, I took your sword at first, and I recognized the appearance of this sword at a glance, but my grandfather said that the hilt and scabbard of the Tianxing Sword are all golden, while yours is black, so I am still a little unsure, but the sword body is exactly the same as what my grandfather said. ”
"My father said that the hilt of the scabbard was indeed golden, but then somehow it turned black. ”
"That's it, it must be because the Tianxing Sword is afraid that it will be too ostentatious, so it has changed its color. ”
"Huh? Can it change on its own?"
"What do you think, this is the Tianxing Sword, the first of the four great divine swords, the sword of the Nine Heavens Dragon God of Jishi Mountain, it is extremely spiritual. ”
"Nine Heavenly Dragon God, what kind of immortal is this?"
"You don't even know this, the Nine Heavens Dragon God is one of the most powerful gods in the world today, and he has the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth!"
Mo Xue scratched her head and said, "I remember when I was eight years old, I met the Immortal Master, and he handed over the sword to my father. ”
"That's it, that person must be the Nine Heavens Dragon God, if it weren't for his deity, how could there be a Tianxing Sword?"
"Ouch, it turned out to be such a big immortal, why didn't I think of it at the beginning. ”
"Okay, as long as we get to Jishi Mountain, won't we see him again?"
"Oh, too. ”
"But it can also be seen that the Nine Heavens Dragon God must be very good to you, otherwise he wouldn't have given you the Tianxing Sword, let alone handed it over to you personally. ”
The two quickly released their previous suspicions, and Mo Xue didn't care about what happened before, and the two soon talked and laughed.
