Chapter 12: The Five Claws

Soon after the beginning of autumn, in addition to the cooler weather, the lush greenery on the trees gradually became a little more yellow. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

A horse-drawn carriage sped along the official road, and the birds nesting on the branches chirped, waiting to be fed as usual, unaware that the great snake that was almost merging with the trunk of the tree was slowly approaching.

"Whew!"

A small silver light flashed, and a piece of bark seemed to fall off the trunk.

Wuqiao smiled innocently, patted the wine jug on his waist, and grasped the reins with one hand, the rough and wide reins actually looked a little slender under one of his big palms.

Nian Jiang held the kettle, but his mind was repeating the flashing of Wuqiao just now and seemed to be casually wiped on his waist, and the silver light flashed out, and in the next second, a snake slid down on the trunk of a tree that the carriage had just driven by, and a few sounds were completed in an instant, and what shocked him the most was that such a delicate shot would actually be made by the rough-looking strong man in front of him.

There seemed to be a flash of light in his eyes. If you make your own move, can you do this? Nian Jiang thought secretly.

Wu Qiao, that is, the only strong man in their group, was full of muscles, and Nian Jiang was only as tall as his shoulders, which showed the height of this person, and the muscles were tight, and at a glance he knew that this was real material, and his fists were extremely hard. Naked with a dark green belt around his waist, few people can see the dense scars on his upper body at first glance because of his dark skin.

Nian Jiang is also an adult man, although he must seem a little thin, but in front of this guy, he actually looks like a child.

is just the opposite of appearance, which is also a point that makes Nian Jiang curious - this person is completely different from his appearance that can stop children crying at night, and you will find that this person is very honest when you get along.

However, now that he has a little more, his hands are very skillful.

Nian Jiang stared at Wuqiao's gaze without a little concealment, Wuyan, that is, the only girl's eyes, paused on Nian Jiang's body, and then giggled, the delicate female voice was very eye-catching in a group of big men.

"This brother, don't look at the big five-trick pieces, but they are very fine. Wuyan said with a grin, and the tassels tied in the long braids swayed with the carriage.

Hearing this, Nian Jiang showed a smile on his face and said, "I have never seen someone as thick and thin as Brother Wuqiao. ”

Wuyan is just a fourteen-year-old girl, just a good age like a flower, wearing a pink coat, smiling with dimples and sweetness, just like the little sister who lives next door, which makes people like it at first sight.

"I'm jealous of the fact that the big ones are so popular. Wuyan tilted her head and grabbed the tassel and played with her fingertips, although she was jealous, but the corners of her mouth were bright smiles. "Where is the big brother, and will you become a colleague with us in the future?"

"I ...... I don't know where it is. Nian Jiang was stunned for a while, and the name of his hometown was entrenched in his mouth and never blurted out, but when he came, he found that his mind was empty, there was no hometown at all, and the bitter taste overflowed his heart.

"Eh, big brother doesn't know. Wuyan blinked, and was about to say something, when he felt a slightly cold big hand on his shoulder, and immediately shut up.

"I heard that Nian Gongzi studied medicine with his predecessors as a poison doctor since he was a child, and if the seniors forgot it for a while, it was normal to not know where to come from. "It was Wu Zhen who spoke, it was the down-and-out middle-aged scribe, of course, it was definitely not an ordinary literati who could mix here. He pulled out a comforting smile, which was ruined by two moustaches and a slightly stiff face, as if in sorrow.

Qing Ke has been obedient like a good boy since Zhang She came back, and he has been sitting in the corner and didn't even dare to move more. The words full of vicissitudes of life and sighs suddenly sounded in his heart, knocking on his heart like a bell, and he was inexplicably shocked, but fortunately, no one paid attention.

"People who have had twists and turns in their lives are also sad when they laugh. Qing Ke, Qing Ke...... Are you listening?"

"That's right, I don't know what Brother Tai is called? I want to be a colleague in the future, and I want to get to know him now. Nian Jiang swallowed his sadness, smiled and hugged his fists and asked.

"Under the Dharma Protector Seat, the disciple Wutong, this is Wuyan, the child is naughty," he touched Wuyan's head, Wuyan obediently rubbed his palm, it was subconscious dependence and trust, "Wuqiao, you already know, this is Wutong - Wutong is older, knowledgeable, if the brother feels bored along the way, you can also talk to him about the ancient classics, I see that the brother has a scholarly temperament, presumably the two of you are quite a bit of a relationship." He pointed to the old man who was sitting next to him and had been silent, the old man's face was cold, and when he pointed at the same time, there was a curious gaze of strangers, his body shook slightly, and then he slowly nodded at Nian Jiang, he couldn't see joy and anger, Nian Jiang smiled embarrassedly, he was not a literati, "This is Wuxiao, if you have something to talk to him, Wuxiao has always been warm-hearted." ”

In the end, all that was left was the man who sat in the corner, hanging his head from the beginning, refusing to look up.

Hearing this, for some reason, the temperament around him was a little depressed, Wu Zhen frowned, and the man still raised his head slowly, and squeezed out an ugly earth-shattering welcome expression to Nian Jiang.

Five smiles look ...... It's really ugly, not to mention the facial features crowded together, the complexion is dull, all kinds of dark spots can be found on his face, plus a messy hair, dodging eyes, at a glance, there will definitely not be much affection for this person.

Nian Jiang raised his eyebrows, and there was nothing else to be excited about, and his expression when he looked at him was as calm as ever, without half evasion and disdain. This made Wuxiao and everyone on the side breathe a sigh of relief, and the atmosphere suddenly eased.

In a word, Nian Jiang followed the poison doctor and never saw anything. Seeing that this ugly person was a little evasive, all I had left in my heart was sympathy.

Only then did the five claws show their first sincere smile since they saw Nian Jiang.

Nian Jiang breathed a sigh of relief, relaxed a little, looked at a few people with some curiosity and asked, "I see that you are all different ages, but they are all Great Dharma Protector disciples?"

"Of course it is, our master is the best in the world, and there are countless admirers, it is your blessing to accept you as an apprentice!" Wu Yan said with pride playing with his fingers. She let go of her hand, which had been clenching a little tightly, revealing a small golden horn inside.

There was a small golden ornament in front of him, Nian Jiang was stunned for a moment, and then met his beautiful eyes.

Wuyan smiled: "Big brother, I like you very much, this knife will be given to you." ”

The small golden ornament turned out to be a small knife, with exquisite carving, and it was not ordinary at first glance.

"Wuyan will only give things to the people you like, so you can accept it. Zhang She said lightly.

"It's still Grandpa Zhang who knows me. Wuyan stood up and bowed to Zhang She, and then sat back with a smile on his face.

Nian Jiang accepted the knife, "That's really my honor." Don't call me a son, I'm just a descendant of a few seniors, just call me by my name. (To be continued.) )
