Chapter 26: God's Will
Wu Dongfang finally caught it, how could he let it go easily.
After a few struggles and resistances, the moon did not move.
It was his turn to be embarrassed when the moon didn't struggle, and he took his hand back in a sneer, "Sleep, I won't mess with you." ”
Wu Dongfang slept very steadily, in addition to injuries and overwork on his body, the woman's unique breath emitted by the dark moon was the main reason, it was very clear and light, this breath could make men feel peaceful, and the restlessness in men's hearts could be appeased.
He didn't know when he got up, but when he woke up, he found that he had already cleaned up and was sitting on a chair at the table waiting for him to get up.
Seeing him open his eyes, Shenyue came over with a copper basin, "Wash your face and go." ”
Wu Dongfang didn't speak, but looked straight at the Stygian Moon, although the Stygian Moon refused to resist last night, he could still see the shallow liking from her words and actions, but at this time, what he saw on the Stygian Moon's face was the inviolable majesty.
"Get up. Styx sighed helplessly.
"My arm hurts. Wu Dongfang said with a smile, the majesty of the dark moon is pretended.
When Stygian Moon heard this, he hurriedly put down the basin and carefully lifted his right hand to check whether the wooden board that held the broken bones was loose.
"This one. Wu Dongfang raised his left arm, the moon really bit last night, and the tooth marks have not disappeared until now.
"They're all outside, don't make a fuss, how do you feel?" Seriousness returned to Stygian's face again.
Wu Dongfang took a deep breath and found that the broken bone was no longer painful, "It's much better, I can walk by myself." ”
"Don't be reckless. Stygian said.
Wu Dongfang checked the wound on his chest again, and found that the wound had scarred, and after a day and a night of rest, the soreness on his body had also been reduced by half, "The main thing that affects my movement is the two broken ribs, and I can walk without pain." ”
"Don't say it, it's not too early, get up early and go to the road. "The moon handed over a towel soaked in water, this towel is different from the modern cotton towel, at this time the towel is made of fine linen.
Wu Dongfang sat up and took the towel, he was injured now, he didn't dare to bend down, three handfuls and two hastily did something, and then followed the moon out of the room.
There were a few villagers sitting not far away, and when they saw Wu Dongfang going out, they hurriedly ran over with bamboo rafts.
Wu Dongfang tried to walk a few steps and was sure that he could walk, so he rejected their kindness.
"No, lie down. Stygian's tone was irrefutable.
Wu Dongfang turned a deaf ear and stepped forward, the pill that the Heavenly Master gave him last night was very effective, as long as he didn't walk too fast, the wound was not painful.
The sorcerers who had escorted the rice bucket had returned last night, and although they did not come to see them off, they sent for dry rations, and they went out of the city with them.
The villagers walked in front happily, and the child they sent was identified as the White Tiger Celestial Master, which was a very honorable thing, and they also used the shells given to them by the Stygian Moon to buy things for their women and children, and they were eager to go back and bring them to them.
"What's your father's name?" Wu Dongfang and Shenyue walked behind.
"Earthquake. As usual, Stygian Moon didn't say her last name.
"Why are you all two-word names?Is there any three-word name?" In order not to compress his ribs, Wu Dongfang walked with his chest up and raised his head.
"Yes, but not much. If you are tired of walking, you will be silent, you are injured, don't hold on. Stygian said.
"You obviously care about me very much, why do you have to hang your face and make a lot of bitterness. Wu Dongfang pouted and said.
Stygian Moon glanced at him, quickening her pace to keep up with the men walking in front.
With outsiders beside him, Wu Dongfang couldn't talk nonsense, he didn't go far and lay on a stretcher, he could still hold it up, but he felt that there was no need to hold it.
It felt good to be carried away, and I fell asleep quickly.
At night, everyone lives in a wooden house next to the road, the wooden house is a resting point for transporting ore, shared by many villages, and the people at this time are still very public morality, repairing if it is broken, repairing it if it is broken, and cleaning it before leaving.
With the experience of the past, Shenyue no longer slept in the same room with him, Wu Dongfang lived in one of the wooden houses by himself, there were many mosquitoes in the mountains, and he couldn't stay at the bite, so he ran outside to talk nonsense with those men, these people knew his relationship with Shenyue, and chatted with him quite closely.
The south is humid, the men love to drink two sips to get wet, before leaving the tribe, each of them bought a jar of wine to carry on their backs, and wanted to take it back to drink slowly, and Wu Dongfang chatted very happily, so he took the wine and invited him to drink.
Men can't drink together, especially a group of men, they must drink too much, the six jars are drunk, and several men all lie down, Wu Dongfang has nothing to do, it's not that he drinks a lot, but that the wine at this time is made by fermenting corn and some kind of ripe fruit, there is no degree, and it tastes similar to the taste of fruit beer.
Fruit beer drank too much and was confused, Wu Dongfang went over to knock on the door with the strength of the wine, and when the moon opened the door and found that he had poured down the villagers, he also drank with a red face, and closed the door angrily, no matter how Wu Dongfang called it, he wouldn't open it.
Although Wu Dongfang annoyed the moon, he had a good relationship with the men, and the next day several men rushed to carry him, and Wu Dongfang pretended to have a hangover and lay down on the stretcher to sleep.
On the first day he was carried, on the second day he was still carried, and on the third day he wanted to be carried, but unfortunately his injuries were healed and he was in the place.
The children of the village were the first to spot them, screaming and telling the news, and the women all came to greet them, and when they found that the moon had taken off their masks, they congratulated her on finding someone they liked. The men loudly told the women and children that the surviving baby was the White Tiger Heavenly Master, and the village was full of jubilation.
Wu Dongfang found that Ming Wan was also in the crowd of Dao He, so he squeezed over to talk to her, Ming Wan saw that he was back again, and he was favored by the wizard, so he happily congratulated him and invited Wu Dongfang to go to her house for dinner at noon, Wu Dongfang happily agreed.
Shenyue came back and began to be busy, sending a man to the mine to inform everyone to stop work for a day, and to find someone to accompany the baby's father to the capital family reunion, she thought carefully and then sent the armless man, this person knows martial arts, and knows the way to the capital, but the most important thing is that she knows that this person is not dealing with Wu Dongfang, and has been with her for so long, so send him to the capital to follow the false heavenly master's family to enjoy happiness.
After being busy, Shenyue found that Wu Dongfang was gone, and when she asked, she realized that she had followed Mingwan to eat braised pork.
Knowing Wu Dongfang's whereabouts, Shenyue didn't go over to look for him, she observed Wu Dongfang privately for a long time, knowing that he was mainly grateful and sympathetic to Mingwan, if he really had any thoughts about Mingwan, he would have put it into practice during the previous time.
Wu Dongfang left a lot of meat for Mingwan before leaving, after these days of marinating, it is not salty or light, Wu Dongfang and Mingwan's family feasted, the only regret is that there is no wine.
After lunch, Wu Dongfang returned to the cave where he lived before, he chose to continue to live here not because he didn't like to live with the villagers, but after a while, Shenyue's father Shenzhen would send the rice bucket over, and the villagers couldn't let the villagers know about the existence of the rice bucket, otherwise the news would leak.
The cave was very clean, and I don't know that after he left, Shenwan had cleaned it carefully.
Shenyue arranged the affairs of the village, and then rushed over and brought Wu Dongfang bedding and utensils for eating and drinking.
After making the bed and putting away the utensils, Shenyue came to the entrance of the cave and sat opposite Wu Dongfang, "I have something to discuss with you." ”
"What's the matter?" Wu Dongfang was polishing the bone arrow.
"I want to find a husband for Stygian. Stygian said.
Wu Dongfang stopped polishing when he heard this, and tilted his head to look at the dark moon.
"Don't get me wrong, I know that Stymia helped you, so I want to try to repay her. Stygian said.
"Is there a suitable candidate?" Wu Dongfang began to polish again.
"I don't know, you can ask her which one she likes, as long as she doesn't have a wife, I can help her. Stygian said.
"She likes people, but people don't necessarily like her. Wu Dongfang shook his head.
"No, as long as I open my mouth, they will definitely marry Mingwan. Stygian said.
Wu Dongfang stopped what he was doing again and looked at the moon in puzzlement.
"Don't forget, I am a sorcerer, a sorcerer is a messenger of the gods, and my word is the will of God. Stygian Moon smiled.
"You are blaspheming the gods. Wu Dongfang said with a smile.
"I'm here to help your benefactor. Stygian Moon also smiled.
"Okay, wait until I ask her. Wu Dongfang nodded and began to polish the bone arrow again.
Shenyue originally wanted to talk to Wu Dongfang, but it turned out that Wu Dongfang had no distractions at the beginning of his work, and his mind was all about polishing the bone arrow, and he didn't have a match to talk to her, so he felt a little lost in his heart, and got up and left after a while.
When he came back, some things were not very convenient, and Stygian's room was in the middle of the village, and it was not good for him to be seen at night. And the moon came to the cave during the day, and as soon as he found out that he had signs of malfunction, the moon would immediately run away.
But he hasn't been idle these days, there was a young man in the village who had a good impression of Mingwan, but later because Mingwan was too close to him, people were a little jealous and ignored her. It was the turn of the underworld to determine the candidate, and as soon as he heard that it was God's will, the young man immediately happily married the underworld, and the underworld and Wu Dongfang gave a generous gift, a small copper pot, to be exact, this thing should be called a kettle, and now that they are cooking rice in clay pots, this is an out-and-out gift.
After getting married, she didn't come to the cave again, her new husband was small-minded and jealous, so she had to avoid suspicion.
Wu Dongfang had nothing to do, and grinded all the remaining animal bones, and obtained a total of sixteen bone arrows.
After grinding the bone arrow, he borrowed a shovel from the village and went to the mountains to bury the bones of the rice bucket and his mother, at this time it was already the eighth day after leaving the tribe, and the heavenly master did not come.
However, at that time, the earthquake said that it would be as little as seven days and as much as half a month, but now it is only eight days, and it is normal that it does not come.
Half a month later, the earthquake still hasn't come. Styx Moon and Wu Dongfang began to get nervous......
