3. Tracing

After the old man treated Xiao Zexuan's injuries, his physical exertion was not small, so he sat on a small wooden chair by the wall to rest, and watched with great satisfaction as the broken branch scrubbed the little baby's body. After a while, a loud laugh came from outside the small earthen house, "Hahaha, Old Man Ding came to me, why don't you ask me for two glasses of wine." As soon as he finished speaking, a strong man with a beard pushed the door open. When the old man heard this, he quickly got up and said to the bearded man: "You reckless man, don't scare my two apprentices with such a loud voice, my little apprentice is seriously injured and has not recovered." The bearded man looked out into bed, and saw a girl carefully holding a little baby, and looking at him with a somewhat complaining look. So he lowered his voice and said with a slight bow: "In this case, it is indeed mine, and I ask the girl to forgive me." Then he turned to the old man with a mocking expression: "Old man Ding, when did you accept two apprentices, everyone in the rivers and lakes knows that the famous drunken Qianli said that he would never accept apprentices." Don't you look at other people's beautiful girls, huh? You're also a man who broke his word and got fat. “

"Ha, bearded, don't tease me, I am also a person who washes his hands in a golden basin and retreats to the mountains and forests. How can this thing be counted outside the rivers and lakes when he walks the rivers and lakes? The old man tilted his head and squinted in reply.

"Hmph, that's so reasonable. Okay, okay, you old man Ding is a senior, what you said is right. It's a pity that the best overlord in my cellar is drunk and won't drink with you. The bearded man feigned anger.

When the old man heard this, he hurriedly grabbed the bearded man: "Don't, don't." You've got a lot of wine, you're all right, you're all right!"

"Hahaha!" both laughed at the same time.

Holding Ozawa's folded branch on the side, he looked at the two who laughed like a nervous disorder with disgusted eyes. Isn't it just a drink, what's there to be a clam?

Under the care of Ori Zhi, Ozawa drank a lot of fish soup mixed with a little deer antler velvet sent by the locals, and he was very energetic. Orieda seemed very interested in teasing him, and often made him "giggle" and laugh, and Orieda looked at him and laughed himself. She had a smile on her face all night, in fact, no matter how good she looked, she would not be ugly if she smiled, let alone the delicate and touching broken branches? The flames from the stove in the hut trembled and trembled, reflecting a graceful figure holding a small child, and her hands slowly swinging from side to side.

As for the old man, of course, he went to drink with the bearded man. The largest earthen house in the village, there was laughter from time to time. "Today I will get you drunk, and see if you can get drunk for a thousand miles. Hey. The bearded man's eyes seemed to be foggy.

"Naturally, you can get drunk for a thousand miles, but if I want to get drunk, I can get drunk with a glass of water. If I don't want to get drunk, I can't get drunk no matter how much people pour me. The old man smiled and raised his glass to look at the bearded man.

"Old man Ding, don't be crazy, my Sanqin White Harrier has never lost to anyone since he learned to drink. I'm not your opponent in the competition, but let's give it a try today. The bearded man slapped his hand on the table, poured a sip of spirit, and then grabbed half a deer's leg and gnawed it. This strong man with a black beard is actually called a white harrier, and I don't know how to call it. He was a famous dart player in Shaanxi, and no one in Shaanxi and Gansu knew him. More than ten years ago, Li Zicheng killed officials and rebelled, pulling up thousands of troops. Shaanxi is in a state of erosion. He was unwilling to bend his waist to follow the thief army, seeing that his hometown suffered from thieves, and he also thought that he might encounter troubled times again in the future, so he simply and a group of brothers and their families built a village at the foot of Changbai Mountain to make a living by fishing and hunting, and named Qin. One day, one of the brothers of the white harrier was hunting in the mountains and met the black blind man, but fortunately he happened to be bumped into by the old man and rescued him. After coming and going, the white harrier and the old man who lived in the mountains also became acquainted, and because the white harrier and the old man had the same smell, it was natural for them to drink together. The two of them were originally wine lovers, and after drinking a meal, thirty or forty empty jars were scattered all over the ground.

In the moonlight, you can see a group of people gathered in the woods, which is where the old man and Orieda found Ozawa. You can still see a puddle of red on the snow covering the ground, but the body is gone. "The slave is ineffective, please punish the prince!" A man in black knelt down to the leader of the group, his voice was very frightened. The man who was called the prince was none other than Dorgon, and his not tall stature did not diminish his majesty, and his whole body exuded a murderous aura. His face was very gloomy at the moment, his eyes were staring at the bloodstains on the ground, and he said, "Are you sure that the child is Zu Dashou's?" "I'm sure, I still know the man who protected him, he is Zu Dashou's guard, the tiger's head thirteen swords Wu Zilang, when I fought with him, I saw that the child in his hand had the ancestral family seal on the neck. That Wu Zilang is really tough, I took the four brothers of the Eagle Group to fight him, and hung a dozen hooks on him, and he can still escape. When he was done, he stabbed one of us. The man in black who was kneeling on the ground replied.

"Don't make a noise about this matter, no matter whether Zu Dashou has two hearts or not, his children can't get out of our control, otherwise this will always be a hidden danger. You'd better find him if you look for it, for the man is so badly wounded that he can't escape. Dorgon gave orders to the kneeling men.

The man in black originally wanted to say that the person had been lost, and the possibility of finding the person was very small, but the words came to his mouth and swallowed. He simply replied, "The slave obeys." “

With that, Dorgon nodded coldly, rode his horse, and left the woods with a few men. In fact, the man in black also noticed this place, in addition to Wu Zilang's, there are two footprints, one large and one small. But the footprints can find those who go into the woods, but they cannot find them out of the woods. Similarly, Wu Zilang's footprints were also broken here, he was so seriously injured that it was impossible to step on the snow without a trace. The man in black sighed, it seems that two people with extremely high light skills have been here, maybe they rescued them. "Hurry up and call the people of the fish group, we need hunting dogs and Hai Dongqing, since we can't see where they have gone, we can only smell them. We must find people, we can't call the prince small, we are sharp eagles. The man in black said to the people around him. One of them didn't say anything, only hugged his fist at the man in black, and then stepped up to the top of the tree, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Early in the morning of the second day, the white harrier sent the old man and the three out of the village, his face a little heavy. "If it's really as you said, you and I don't know what the woody baby in Zhizhi's arms is about, if Heishuitang really likes him, it may chase him. The white harrier was a little helpless.

"That's true, but it is against the morality of those who practice martial arts like us not to save it. I knew who you were, so I brought him with me. You should be careful these days, maybe you think too much, but you can't be careless. If there is a situation, you Flying Eagle will send me a message, and I will go down the mountain immediately. The old man also had a serious face.

"You old man Ding, you actually make trouble for me. But I'm not a person who is afraid of things, and if Heishuitang doesn't come, if I come, I'll make them into appetizers. “

"Again, don't be careless. I was informed by the Flying Eagle of the situation. The old man said.

"Okay. The white harrier raised his hand: "Then you guys, next time you go down the mountain to bring me some ginseng and other medicinal materials, my wife is afraid of the cold and has cold legs." “

"No problem, I'll dig for you, I can dig a lot of clams at this time, and I'll bring it to you when the time comes." The answer was a broken branch, and the voice was crisp. At this time, she already had the innocent aura of a sixteen-year-old girl, which was completely different from her trekking in the snow yesterday.

The white harrier smiled when he heard this: "Haha, so I will thank the girl for my wife, and the snow clams are also treasures for strengthening the body and keeping out the cold, and I am also grateful." “

"You're welcome. Ori smiled. Suddenly, Ozawa, who was wrapped in her chest, cried. "Ahhh

The white harrier waved goodbye to the old man and the three of them, and watched them walk into the mountains. Then he turned back to the village and shouted, "Brothers, you should sharpen your knife, you should sharpen your knife." There was a bit of a shuddering fierce light in his eyes.
