Chapter 3: Helping each other
Not only did the thieves prepare their horses, but they also set up a mule cart with a shed, and the iron man was the one who drove the cart. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The fat woman was wearing the rose and purple satin jacket that had not yet been changed, and Iron Rose came out with her, only to see that this was a deserted village, and the houses were far away; Iron Rose was about to take a closer look at the surroundings, intending to find a mark, in case she could get out of the house so that she could come here for revenge, but the fat woman urged her to get into the car quickly.
She got into the chariot and sat in the innermost part, and the woman's fat body stood in front of her, and she did not know who they had left behind to watch the house, and the five horses followed the chariot.
The fat woman turned her head and said, "If someone wants to interrogate you on the road, you will say that I am your mother and you are my daughter." Don't be so sad on your face. Iron Rose had no choice but to agree.
The carriage and horses followed, and Tie Rose went out to listen through the car enclosure, listening to the fire-eyed Pang Er talking to Yu Wu.
Pang Er said again: "When you see Yuwen Jackie Chan, don't show my sword, and don't mention this matter, otherwise if he asks me, I will be embarrassed not to give it." He's the greediest!"
Yu Wu smiled and said, "You can't give it to him, you just send him alone." Such a handsome little girl, she will be able to take over the house in a year or two, and he can ask for your sword again?"
Although Iron Rose didn't understand what it meant to "take the house", she knew that what they said must not be a good thing, and her heart became more resentful and anxious.
I heard Pang Er say again: "We don't have to take a long detour, from Nanyang Mansion to the north and then to the north, I don't dare to go to Fangcheng, I'm afraid of red scorpions." She wants to know that I have this sword, and she must take it!"
Yu Wu laughed while driving the mule, and said, "Look, you have this sword, but you are afraid of wolves and tigers." Don't worry! Although the girls of the red scorpion are powerful, her man has a relationship with us, and she must not be unreasonable. Let's go to Fangcheng, it's not easy to go to Nanyang Mansion seriously! The officials there are strictly interrogated!"
When Tie Rose heard this, she was very willing that they would take the road of Nanyang Mansion because they were afraid of the red scorpion, and as long as they saw the officials, they would shout.
However, the five thieves were also very cautious, and they preferred to go far away, and their chariots and horses sought to go on the silent and uninhabited paths, near which there were long mountains and mountains.
After noon, the second class of Huoyan Pang called the carriage and horses to stop in a small village for lunch. This small village is against the mountain, and there are no more than a dozen families in total, and Iron Rose does not dare to shout here.
Pang Er and the others hurriedly finished eating, and hurriedly urged the cart and horse to go in a hurry. Walking so fast that they didn't even bother to say a word, and their faces were nervous.
Iron Rose was very suspicious, so she secretly pulled the window to look out, but the fat woman pushed her away.
The fat woman's face was also frightened, and she said: "Don't look out, this mountain is called Tianlong Village, and there is a female robber on the cottage, named 'Red Scorpion' Shen Zhilan, who is extremely vicious!"
As he was talking, he heard the sound of the hooves of the wheels getting tighter and tighter, and the voice of the thief said, "Chased down!" and heard the fire-eyed Pang Er proudly say: "It's just her, we are not afraid of her!"
I saw Yu Wu turn around and turn his head and say, "Stop, stop! The more you run, the worse it gets, this girl can use hidden weapons." As he spoke, the car stopped, and he heard an "ouch" again, and he didn't know that the thief had fallen off the horse with a hidden weapon.
Then I heard a woman's voice behind her shouting, "Stop!" The fat woman trembled with fright and arched back. She arched behind her so that the Iron Rose had no room for it, and she had to crawl over the fat woman's lap, and she fell to the front.
She couldn't help but be afraid, she didn't know what kind of yaksha-like character the red scorpion Shen Lanmei was?
At this time, I listened to the fire-eyed Pang Er's words: "Ninth sister-in-law, don't recognize the wrong person, it's us." Isn't Brother Nine on the mountain? We're about to visit him!"
At this time, the red scorpion had already urged the horse to approach, only to hear her say: "Muddy water! Don't talk nonsense! Who is your ninth sister-in-law, throw down the white dragon Yin Feng sword, leave the daughter who Tie Don't hate, and let you go!"
The fire-eyed Pang Er said in a panic: "That girl is going to be sent to the eldest son of Chiyanyu Culture and Yuwen Chenglong, Uncle Yuwen will celebrate his birthday on the third day of the first month of next month, and he will marry Fang Xiao." ”
Tie Rose vaguely heard 'Chi Yanyu Culture and', 'Yuwen Jackie Chan', and thought: "It turns out that they are my enemy's subordinates, and they want to send me to the enemy's house to be a small house, these dog thieves are so angry, if there is a chance to escape, I will definitely clean them up." “
The red scorpion reprimanded: "Muddy water! What is Yuwen Jackie Chan?" There is nothing else to say, men and swords are left!"
Huoyan Pang Er seemed to roll his face, and he said, "Ninth sister-in-law, don't know how to make friends!"
Before he could say a word, he screamed miserably, probably with a hidden weapon, and the horse's hooves "got it" with a tight sound, as if some thief had fled.
Yu Wu also climbed out of the car, and begged, "Madam, I'm a charioteer!" The red scorpion ignored him, brought the horse closer to the chariot, and leaned into the chariot with his sword.
Iron Rose also opened her two frightened eyes, and looked, ahhhhh
Iron Rose originally thought that the "red scorpion" Shen Zhilan must be a wicked woman with jagged fangs, a blue indigo face, and two fleshy horns on her head, like a little ghost in the Land Temple.
But now it looks the other way around! This female thief turned out to be a young woman with clear eyebrows, a melon seed face, and a slender body.
He was thirty-three or fourteen years old, wearing a red satin jacket, white trousers, and hairpin ring jewelry on his head, just like a bride, and like the daughter-in-law of the Lei family in Daqimen (that was the most beautiful woman in Daqimen).
The sword in the red scorpion's hand was the white dragon wind sword, and she stared at the iron rose, although her eyes were beautiful, but with a fierce light. Shouted, "Get out of the car!"
Iron Rose trembled and moved downward. The red scorpion asked again, "Who are the girls?"
Iron Rose cried and said, "That's what they know, probably Pang Er's daughter-in-law, they robbed me last night and put it in her house!"
Before she could finish her sentence, the fat woman cried out like a sow for mercy, while the red scorpion probed the sword into the cart.
Iron Rose was so frightened that she quickly closed her eyes, but the fat woman in the car screamed, and the red scorpion stretched out her left arm and carried Iron Rose from the car to her horse. Her horse was fragrant, like a sandalwood saddle.
Iron Rose saw that the red scorpion was wearing a pair of red satin embroidered shoes, with a butterfly made of beads nailed to the toe, and the foot was really thin and small. Looking underground, I saw that Pang Er and another thief had been hit by hidden weapons, crawling and moaning underground.
Yu Wu hid under the car. The red scorpion didn't need to look at these people, she put away the White Dragon Yin Wind Sword, and put away a thin sleeve arrow, and then turned the horse and ran away with the Iron Rose.
After traveling three or four miles, Iron Rose relieved herself, and saw that the hand that the red scorpion was holding her was also very delicate, and she was wearing a delicate gold bracelet and a ring inlaid with emeralds, and Iron Rose was not afraid at this time.
She loved this female robber very much, so she turned back and asked, "Sister-in-law, thank you for saving me!"
But the red scorpion ignored her, and just urged the horse to go. When he was young, he turned his horse into a narrow and steep mountain road, and went up a mountain range in a circuitous way.
A little black horse under the seat of the red scorpion is really vigorous, and her riding skills are really good, jumping over the rocks and climbing the rocks, like a flying snake, and in an instant she is in a valley.
There is a village here, and the red scorpion is holding the iron rose and urging the horse into this village, and there are many red-leaved trees in the village, and the scene is very desolate.
There are two villagers who look like they are holding a bamboo rake and collecting grass in front of the door, and when they see the red scorpion, they all fold their hands and say respectfully: "Sister-in-law Yu Jiu is back, who is this little girl?"
The red scorpion only nodded to them, but did not answer, and stopped his horse at the head of a house, and carried Xiuxia off the horse. Immediately, a teenage child ran over and led her horse away.
The red scorpion moved lightly, holding the white dragon sword in his hand, and led the iron rose into the door. At this time, Iron Rose was really a little surprised, she thought that this thief's den might not be how strict and sinister, but now at a glance, it is simply the same as ordinary people, and there are more than 20 pots of chrysanthemums in the courtyard, which are full of fragrance, as if it is a home of poetry and books.
There was not a single man to be seen, only two servants. The red scorpion brought the Iron Rose into the house, and the Iron Rose saw a difference, for although the room was quiet, the wooden utensils were very exquisite, and there were magnetic bottles and fruit plates on the table, but there was not a single book, and there was not a single calligraphy or painting on the wall. There was only a sword and two ropes, presumably for tying up people.
The red scorpion came into the house and didn't do anything else, she looked at the "White Dragon Yin Wind Sword" repeatedly.
Iron Rose stood four or five paces away from her, and looked at the sword with her eyes, and hoped in her heart that the red scorpion was a chivalrous man, and that she would return the sword to herself and escort herself home. But at this time, I heard a croaking cry in the room separated by a layer of red cloth soft curtains, and although the red scorpion looked at the sword, he said to Xiuxia in his mouth: "You go into the house and take a look, he is going to drown, you can change his diaper." ”
Iron Rose agreed, lifted the curtain and walked inside. I saw that the inside was a very clean bed, and on the bed lay a child who was three or four months old, crying with his hands and feet.
Iron Rose walked over and changed his diaper, only to find out that it was a little boy. The little round head, quite dark, did not look like a red scorpion, and Iron Rose did not know who the red scorpion's husband was, and why did he call his young and beautiful wife a robber? Then he took him out of the back room and handed it to the red scorpion.
The red scorpion took her child in her hand, patted the hilt of the sword on the table with her other hand, and coaxed her, "Don't cry, give you the sword to play with, and when you grow up, this sword will be given to you!"
The red scorpion had to sit down on the chair and untie her arms, and when she untied her arms, although there was only Iron Rose next to her, she seemed to be a little shy, while breastfeeding the child, she raised her eyes and looked at Xiuxia.
Iron Rose felt that her eyes were very powerful at this time, and there was a fierce light in the beauty, as if it was more terrifying than the eyes of the robbers in the fire-eyed Pang Er. It's just that she said with a cold face, "I shouldn't have saved you, your father and your uncle are our enemies! ”
When Iron Rose heard this, she couldn't help but shudder. I heard the red scorpion say: "But I see that you are young and honest, if you want Pang Er and them to send you to your enemy Chiyan Yu Culture and his son Yuwen Chenglong as a concubine, you will be finished." You're here with me, show me the children, help the old mothers with odd jobs, and I will never treat you wrong. Don't even think about running, and don't go out of this door, if you don't listen to me, if you do something behind my back, don't blame me for losing your life. Don't blame me for not explaining it to you first!"
Iron Rose had another cold shiver, and she didn't dare to shed tears in her eyes, let alone say many words in her heart.
After the red scorpion finished speaking, he commanded Xiuxia to cook.
Iron Rose walked out of the house with her head down, and when she found the kitchen, she saw two old mothers here, one making a fire and the other washing vegetables.
As soon as the Iron Rose arrived, the old woman who was burning the fire stood up and gave it to her. Xiuxia sat down helplessly and added firewood to the stove piece by piece.
She was born eighteen or nineteen years old, and she was regarded by her father as a palm pearl in the Daqimen, where did she do such a hard thing?
Moreover, now her body and mind are very tired and painful, and her heart is more like many sharp knives cutting and stabbing there. She thought bitterly, "How did I get to this point?"
My father's coffin was still parked at home, and the revenge could not be avenged, and Zhuo Feiliu was also killed by thieves, so I left the wolf's den and entered the tiger's den to see that although the red scorpion was beautiful, it was not sure how vicious and unreasonable it was. When will I be able to escape here, and when will I be able to avenge my father and regain the blue and white sword?
Thinking like this, she couldn't help but cry like rain in the light of the fire in the stove, and after crying for a while, she couldn't help crying. The old woman in her fifties and her hair was pale, so she stretched out her little foot and kicked Tie Rose, who was so frightened that she swallowed her voice and didn't dare to cry again.
The old woman put a handful of rice in the pot, and when she looked back and saw that her companion was not in the house, she squatted down and held her hand and whispered to Iron Rose, "Don't cry......!
She used a gesture to compare the number of nine, and said: "She knows that it's amazing! She has a nickname, called 'Red Scorpion Yu Jiu Grandma', who doesn't know her, often kills!"
Iron Rose quickly wiped away her tears, and asked in a sad voice, "Auntie, what kind of place is this?"
The old mother whispered: "This is Maple Leaf Village, Aozi Valley, Fangcheng Mountain, my surname is He, we are good people in this village." Most of the people in the village are good people, there are five or six bad people, the Jiao mother just now, her man is under the Red Scorpion, and she was caught by officials in Gwangju the year before last.
Red Scorpion's husband is named Black Mountain God Yu Jiutian, he is a big thief, he has been committing crimes outside all year round, and he is even more fierce than her, and I heard that he is coming back soon. Since you have fallen here, you can't do it, so you have to endure it. Talk less, be patient with her, show her the child, and wait until you come back in nine days, you have to be more careful.
Yu Jiutian's heart is the worst, and when he sees the girl and daughter-in-law, he has a bad heart. The red scorpion is the most jealous, and the two of them often fight, that is, she thinks her man is having an affair. You really have to be careful! Otherwise, you will annoy the red scorpion, and she will kill without blinking!"
When Iron Rose heard this, she nodded, and her heart was filled with sorrow and fear. But in the blink of an eye, I should have snatched the sword and ran down the mountain secretly, I didn't know any martial arts, was I willing to be humiliated in this thief's cave, waiting for them to be killed?
Iron Rose said slightly, and Mother He couldn't help but feel sorry and shed a few tears, but Iron Rose was not very sad at this time, she was just thinking about how to steal the sword, how to escape, and how to return to her hometown in Xincai County.
When the meal had been cooked, the red scorpion shouted again in the room, calling Iron Rose to see the child, and she seemed to know the name of Iron Rose, so she cried out, "Rose!
The red scorpion saw the coaxing of the Iron Rose, but seemed to be very satisfied, thinking that the Iron Rose was good.
When she was young, the red scorpion ordered the servant woman to cook for her, and the two old mothers served her, and the iron rose held the child beside her.
At this time, it was cold, and a cold wind like winter was blowing in the mountains, and the sand and fallen leaves made the window lattices rattle.
At this time, the red scorpion put on a thin cotton coat of water green satin on the red jacket, which was illuminated by the bright light, and it looked more and more gorgeous.
She held half a cup of wine in her hand, lowered her temples slightly, and only took a small sip, her eyebrows were tightly locked, and she said to the Jiao mother next to her, "Why hasn't the ninth master come back yet?"
Jiao's mother said: "I'm not worried either! Meng Bald came back this morning, and he said that the Ninth Master had arrived in Yuncheng County, and it stands to reason that he should come back at this time."
I'm afraid that the girls surnamed Hua are entangled again, the ninth master is really ridiculous!" The red scorpion waved his hand and said, "Don't mention it! I'm really annoyed when I mention it!" Then he took a small basket of vegetables to eat, then supported his head with one hand, sighed slightly and said: "We, the ninth master, sooner or later we have to suffer losses in the rivers and lakes! Is the iron-blooded banner of the iron-blooded banner stronger than him?
Jiao's mother looked back at Tie Rose, but Tie Rose was holding the child, convulsive, crying with tears. When the red scorpion saw this, she "snapped" the wine cup, glared at her, and said, "What are you crying for?" Look, as long as you throw the child down, I will kill you immediately! Don't you hate him for your father? When he was young, he was a sword in the rivers and lakes, and he didn't know how many brothers he had killed. Let me tell you, my husband is your great enemy in the Nine Heavens, and he has two brothers who died at the hands of your father.
Today and tomorrow, he will come back, I can't tell him that you are the daughter of Tie Don't Hate, and I can't say that there is a disciple of the Great Banner Sect, otherwise, he can immediately draw his sword to kill you, he doesn't care how young he is!"
Tie Don't hate to hear it, and his body trembled more and more, but he didn't dare to shed tears anymore. She didn't say a word, but thought to herself: My father must have killed many thieves when he was young, and this red scorpion's husband probably had a grudge against me like that.
Now, although the red scorpion has no intention of killing me, if her husband comes back in a day or two, if he knows that I am the daughter of iron hatred, he will not be able to let me live.
At this time, the red scorpion glared at Tie Rose again, and then turned his face to talk to Jiao's mother. Her voice was still very sad, and she said, "Although the ninth master is not good to me, I really miss him!"
The red scorpion sighed so contemplatively, and the thief mother Jiao, who was tall and looked like a reckless man, was very unhappy, and she pointed her fingers and said: "Grandma Jiu, Miss Qianjin and Mrs. Yipin are not as virtuous as you!
A virtuous wife like you is simply rare in the world. Ninth Master, I dare to say in front of him, if I had a man like him, I would have kicked him away a long time ago. He also said: "What point is he worthy of the Ninth Grandmother, on talents, on martial arts?"
The red scorpion smiled and said, "How do you know, although he is ugly, but I like him, I miss him, and I am always afraid that something will happen to him outside."
Wang Shichong, the iron rod of Zhangde Mansion, and Dou Jiande, the double hook of Kaifeng Mansion, are both very good at handling cases, and the ninth master has also committed crimes in those two places.
Also, now there is a young hero on the rivers and lakes, named Wei Chigong, I heard that the whip method is strong, and he has traveled all over the north and south, and he has never met an opponent. He is also dedicated to opposing the people of the Green Forest, if the Ninth Master encounters his hands, it will really make me responsible!" said and couldn't help frowning.
Jiao's mother persuaded: "Forget it, Grandma Jiu, don't worry about it, Ninth Master has a golden dart to protect him, and he is not afraid of any Wei Chigong." Grandma Jiu, let's eat! The dishes are cold!"
So the red scorpion smiled, stretched out her slender hand that had also killed people with a golden green ring, and went to eat again. The Iron Rose next to him thought blankly, and said secretly: "That Wei Chi Gong must be a chivalrous man, and his martial arts are better than my father and uncle, if this person knows that I am suffering here and comes to rescue me, then it will be good!" At this time, the child had fallen asleep on her arm.
The red scorpion glared again and said, "Why are you stunned? Do you want to die? Why don't you send the child back to sleep, what do you want you to do? If you can't do anything, I might as well kill you!"
Then Mother He hurriedly waved her hand and asked Tie Rose to send the child back to the house. Iron Rose trembled, annoyed, and panicked, and put the child on the bed, probably touching the child with her hand, and the child woke up and cried again.
The red scorpion smashed his chopsticks outside the house, lifted the curtain and entered the house, twisted the Iron Rose, and hit the Iron Rose a few times, and the Iron Rose couldn't help but fight back.
The red scorpion was furious, and immediately returned to the outhouse, drew her sword with a "brush", raised her two delicate eyebrows, and stared at two beautiful eyes, really like a female monster, holding her newly-acquired white dragon sword of the wind, and entered the house to kill Iron Rose.
Mother He wanted to stop her, but she was kicked down by her flying lotus feet.
The mother of Jiao grabbed her and said something, and the red scorpion stopped; still pointed her sword at the house, and said angrily: "Okay! You still dare to fight back with me! I know that you and your father Tie Bei Hate have learned a few martial arts, but don't talk about your hands, even Tie Don Hate him is alive again; Yun Zhanfeng also came to me, if I am afraid of them, I will not be the daughter of Zhenhai Cow and the wife of the Black Mountain God." Come, I'll give you a sword, let's pair it!"
The two old mothers persuaded her outside again, and she was persuaded to sit down again and drink alcohol. Iron Rose was angry and scared at this time, and really wanted to strangle the son of the red scorpion, this little thief, to death first, and then let the red scorpion take his own life.
However, she just couldn't bear this life, not because she was afraid of death, but because she missed avenging her father and two swords. In any case, I will try to take the sword back in the future, and I will have to swallow my anger now.
At this time, the good-hearted Mother He came into the house again, pulled the Iron Rose and persuaded her: "You go out and make amends to Grandma Jiu." You're really angry with Grandma Nine, you shouldn't fight back. ”
Iron Rose had no choice but to step out of the room and salute the red scorpion with tears in her eyes. The red scorpion didn't look at her squarely, and only said, "Wait for two or three years, and I will kill you again when you grow up!"
Mother He took Iron Rose away and went to the south room. This is the room where Mother He and Mother Jiao live, there is a board bed, and Iron Rose sits on the bed and cries.
Mother He persuaded in a low voice: "How can you provoke the witch? Today, thanks to the persuasion of Mother Jiao, I don't know what kind of thoughts she has in mind, she will do good things today; otherwise, you will die in vain! In this mountain, the red scorpion can kill whoever it wants, and that is not the same thing." Just be patient, think of the Bodhisattva when you have nothing to do, if the Bodhisattva Lord looks at you pitifully, maybe you will have a bright day!"
Although Iron Rose was still crying secretly, her heart was much calmer. She thought to herself: I still have to endure it, it is useless to die like this. Mother He persuaded her once, and then went to serve the red scorpion for dinner.
In that room, the child cried for a while and stopped crying. Here, the room was dark and silent, there was no light, and the autumn wind was blowing outside the window, and Iron Rose suddenly had the idea of escaping.
She wanted to escape, but she was timid. When I was young, the red scorpion in the room had finished eating, and Mother He took down the rest of the vegetables and ate them with the Iron Rose.
Can Iron Rose eat there? Mother He whispered while eating, but she leaned her ears to listen. From He's mother's mouth, she knew the life story of the red scorpion.
It turned out that the red scorpion was not born to be a female robber, she was the daughter of Shen Xiong, a manatee in the famous dart head town in Huainan, although the family was very rich, the martial arts were all learned from her father. Five years ago, she had fallen in love with one of her father's darts and eloped with her lover when her father noticed that he wanted to kill her. Her lover is now her husband, the Black Mountain God Yu Jiutian.
Yu Jiutian was originally born as a robber, good at drinking, good at gambling, and good at messing with flowers, but I don't know why the red scorpion was so kind to him, and followed him to the rivers and lakes, and he also walked into the path of thieves.
This thief couple has done many crimes everywhere, and because they are very anxious to be pursued by the government, they have no place to stand, so they have to throw themselves into this remote Fangcheng Mountain. Because it is not close to the avenue, there are no officials to take them, but there are no merchants for them to rob.
Therefore, although the red scorpion lives here, Yu Jiutian often goes down the mountain to get money outside.
I heard that he also has many women outside, and the red scorpion is also a thief here, and she recruits some young scoundrels in the village as her minions, and this place is like a copycat.
The red scorpion is not only king in the mountains here, but also robs from afar, so that the name of the red scorpion is unknown to everyone near and far, and because her husband treats her badly, her temperament becomes more tyrannical. Today, although she didn't kill Iron Rose, she still resented her heart.
When she was young, Na Jiao's mother went to the south house, pointed at the iron rose and said, "If I hadn't persuaded Grandma Nine just now, your life would have been gone, you don't want this little life, sooner or later you have to ask Grandma Jiu to kill you!"
Iron Rose was silent, and after staying for a while, Jiao's mother urged her to sleep.
A very narrow board bed, two old mothers sandwiched her, she didn't even dare to move, let alone escape. Because of her physical fatigue and sorrow, she fell asleep.
In the dream she dreamed of her father, and of the red scorpion, and of her father, who was fighting with the red scorpion, and that she was killed as if she had been killed. From the next day, although the Iron Rose was always in pain, she no longer showed it, and although she wanted to run away, she did not act rashly. She just endured extremely, watching the children, cooking,
Sweeping the floor, like a very peaceful little girl. Although the red scorpion still has no smile at her, he can't catch her mistakes.
The red scorpion gets up every morning, practices swords, punches, and jumps in the courtyard in the courtyard, and then waters the flowers and nurses the child. It's her daily homework. Sometimes someone stood outside the door looking for her, and she ordered someone to prepare a horse, and took a sword and left, and it would take half a day to return. When you return, you must bring something of robbery.
She rarely laughs, and all day long she is sad and sad except for impatience and ferocity. She dresses up well every day, dressing up two or three times a day, and changing at least two sets of clothes.
However, the people he was expecting never came. She was always suspicious and uneasy, and in the middle of the night Iron Rose saw that there was still a light in her room, and thought that she was probably thinking about it, and could not sleep.
Iron Rose stayed here for five or six days in a row, and on this day the Red Scorpion's husband, the Black Mountain God Yu Jiu, returned. Xiuxia hurriedly hid in the south room, not daring to show his head, but he looked out through the hole in the paper window.
And when he saw that the black mountain god was of great height, and looked like an iron tower, and had a beard like a thorn on his cheeks, and spoke in a hoarse voice, he brought two thieves, and he ordered them to put two large chests in the courtyard, and he ordered them to go out again.
At this time, the red scorpion was wearing red clothes and green trousers, with her temples hanging low, and her chest slightly open, and she came out of the house with the child in her arms, and said to her husband coquettishly: "Why did you come back?
Then he said to the child, "Call your father, and ask what good things your father has brought you?"
The black mountain god Yu Jiutian smiled in a dumb voice, and wanted to kiss the child again, but the child was pricked by his hedgehog beard, and he cried. But the red scorpion stamped her lotus foot and complained to her husband, saying, "Look at you, this nasty beard is not shaved?"
Yu Jiutian said, "I kept it and came back for you to see." The red scorpion smiled coquettishly, and took her husband in one hand and the child in the other and went into the house.
At this time, Mama He and Mama Jiao also stopped doing anything, and they both hid in the south room, listening to the conversation of the couple in the north room.
I only heard that the child had stopped crying at this time, and Yu Jiutian was hoarse and laughing, but the red scorpion was delicate and flattering.
After staying for a long time, suddenly there was a knock on the door of the house, and Yu Jiutian came out again. He looked back and said, "No, I have to leave quickly, and I'll come back in a few days!"
The red scorpion in the house easily looked forward to her husband coming home, and if she didn't want to come to Rong Shaoxu, the black mountain god would leave again.
The red scorpion hurried out of the house and asked, "Where are you going to go?"
Yu Jiutian waved his hand and said, "You don't have to worry about it! You just listen to me, I will be able to come back in four or five days if I don't go down the mountain in the past two days." ”
As he spoke, he walked away. The red scorpion chased out the door in tears. Here Jiao's mother said to He Mama: "You see that the ninth master is ambitious! When he returns home and doesn't stay overnight, the ninth grandmother is good with him for nothing, this is called an infatuated woman with a negative heart!"
When I was young, I heard the sound of horses' hooves outside the wall, probably because the black mountain god rode away. The red scorpion hid his face and went straight through the door to the north room. For the whole day, she didn't eat, and she didn't even want to feed her children.
Iron Rose knew that she was upset, and if she annoyed her, she would definitely kill herself again, so she didn't dare to go to the north room except in the south room or in the kitchen, but fortunately today the red scorpion seemed to have forgotten about Iron Rose and did not call her.
In the evening, Mama He went home without eating. Her home is also in the mountains, and she has sons and grandchildren, because today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, she needs to go home to reunite. Jiao's mother thought of her thief husband who was killed for breaking the law again during this festival, cried for a while, drank some stuffy wine, and went to sleep.
There was no light in the north room, and the red scorpion was probably so sad that he fell asleep alone.
The moonlight on the horizon was very round, like a jade plate, the autumn wind blew the fallen leaves, the grass roots and the sparse shadows of the dozens of pots of chrysanthemums in the courtyard, and the crickets cried softly under the wall, showing a desolate meaning.
Iron Rose stood in the court, looking up at the bright moon, listening to the sound of autumn, and couldn't help but feel sad in her heart, but quickly held down this sadness again. I thought to myself: Why don't I run away at this time?
So he went to the north room to steal the sword, but he thought that the sword must be placed beside the red scorpion, and if she detected it, he would not be able to escape at that time, but he would be killed by her. It is better to try to escape for your life first, as long as you can return home, your uncle will definitely be able to manage to get the sword back in the future.
Immediately, she quickly opened the door and walked out secretly. I saw the moonlight shining on the valley, and the red leaves in the valley were bleak, and every family was closed for the holidays, but there was no one to be seen, and no horse of the red scorpion could be found.
Iron Rose panicked like a rabbit chased by a hound, and ran down the mountain road from the mountain village. After running a dozen steps, she fell, and her leg was broken, so she quickly got up and ran down, and as if someone was chasing after her, the more she ran, the more inconvenient her feet became.
This mountain road is very circuitous, the stones in the ground are stumbling, and the strange rocks on both sides are like fierce beasts, like mountain ghosts, and like robbers, all squatting there. Fortunately, the moonlight illuminates the road very clearly, and there is no need to grope forward. After running for a long time, Iron Rose was out of breath, and the mountain wind blew her body cold, and she had to walk slowly downward, but her heart still seemed to panic.
Then he turned a mountain ring, but he heard a terrible sound blown by a gust of wind, as if someone was crying somewhere, and the voice was very thin, like the cry of a woman.
Iron Rose was stunned in her heart, and thought to herself: Who is this? Could it be that she is also a martyred woman like me, and her steps can't help but be timid.
The further down I went, the clearer the cry became, and it gradually became like a voice in my ears. Suddenly, twenty paces away, there was a woman in the moonlight, dressed in green clothes, sitting on a stone.
Lowering his head, covering his face with a white hand towel, whining, the more he cried, the more miserable it became, the weaker his voice became, and Iron Rose couldn't help but stop.
At first, she was frightened, thinking that this was a female ghost, but then she didn't realize that this kind of sorrow had hooked her own tears.
She walked over, and when she saw that the woman was combing her hair, she patted her shoulder and persuaded her: "Sister-in-law, you don't have to be too sad!
As soon as the woman saw that someone was urging her, she suddenly looked up. Immediately they looked at each other, and they could see each other clearly by the moonlight.
Iron Rose was taken aback, and her body trembled, and it turned out that the person who was crying was the red scorpion. At this time, she couldn't run anymore, so she had to stand in a panic.
The red scorpion had the sword beside her, but she didn't lose her temper, and she stood there for a while, and then asked gently, "What are you here for?"
Iron Rose trembled and said: "I am, seeing that Grandma Nine didn't eat for a day today, and she didn't go back for half a day with a sword in the evening, so I don't worry, I'll ......."
She said this. I still think that the red scorpion must not be believed. Unexpectedly, the red scorpion wiped away his tears, sighed and said, "Ahem! I treat you so badly, but you care about me so much, which makes me feel even more uncomfortable!"
When the red scorpion had finished saying this, he took Iron Rose's hand and said, "Don't be afraid of me anymore, I can't lose my temper with you anymore! You are pitiful, and I am pitiful!" she sighed and wiped away tears.
Iron Rose was very surprised, and didn't know what the psychology of the red scorpion was. I saw her look up at the bright moon in the mountains again.
Her appearance at this time was gentle and gentle, especially when she had just cried, and the tears hanging on her eyelashes were shining like small beads by the moonlight. She has fluffy sideburns, wears a cloaked of green satin, and a red jacket is exposed inside, really like a mortal fairy, or a girl in distress, not like the wife of the thief Black Mountain God Yu Jiutian, a female demon king who kills people without blinking.
At this time, the mountain wind blew more tightly, Xiuxia couldn't help but shiver, and the red scorpion took off her own black satin cloak and draped it on the iron rose.
Iron Rose was flattered, and said timidly, "I'm not cold!
Iron Rose said, "Don't call me Grandma Nine anymore, I hate it." My maiden name is Shen, so you can call me Aunt Shen in the future. ”
Speaking of this, she sighed again and said, "Don't think I'm a bad guy or a robber, in fact, I wasn't like that before. Ahem! Although I was not a young lady earlier, I was also a girl from a good family, and it was because I married the ninth master that I changed my temper. I have really suffered a lot for the ninth master, and I have saved his life, but he, his heart is so hard, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone else is reunited, but he returned home and stayed for a short time, and left in a hurry!" said she cried sadly.
Iron Rose was also moved by her tears, remembering how happy she was when she was at home last year, eating fruit under the moon with her father and talking jokes, but now she didn't expect to end up so miserably.
She was about to cry to the red scorpion and let her go home, but the red scorpion patted her soft shoulder again and said, "The wind is too cold, let's go back! From now on, I will not treat you badly! You will live with me and accompany me with peace of mind." I want to spend three years teaching your martial arts, and then I will take you to find Chi Yanyu Culture and avenge your father, and recapture that Canglong Sword, you will use that mouth, I will make this White Dragon Sword, and the two of us will enjoy happiness on this mountain, and no one will dare to provoke us!" Iron Rose listened, but her heart couldn't help but be surprised.
