Chapter 14

Chen Xiao followed behind Chen Mengxi, and vaguely felt that the appearance of this child was a little abrupt.

Chen Mengxi walked up to the child, squatted down, and asked, "Little brother, why are you here alone? What about your parents?"

The little brother was very scared at first, but after calming down, he replied: "The enrollment of Yunzhong Academy is about to start recently, and our family knows that the inn in the city is not enough, so we spontaneously opened a rural inn, which not only provides convenience for pedestrians, but also brings us a certain income." My parents are so busy that I'm the only one here. ”

As he spoke, the child's eyes looked at Chen Xiao behind him, and he knew that whether he could take the two of them back would depend on whether the man would agree.

The child looked at Chen Xiao and said, "Big brother, it's getting late, there have been more robbers recently, it's not safe at night, and there are no inns here." ”

Chen Xiao stared at the child with unkind eyes and did not answer.

The child felt Chen Xiao's indifference and couldn't help but take a few steps back.

Chen Mengxi glanced at Chen Xiao and said with some dissatisfaction: "Brother, he's just a child, don't always think that everyone is a villain." ”

Chen Xiaochang let out a breath and spread his hands, "I'm just being careful, it's not a big deal, just be happy with everything." ”

Chen Mengxi glanced at Chen Xiao, turned her head to look at the child, gently stroked his head, and said, "Don't be afraid, we are not bad people, and my sister is worried that she can't find a place to stay." ”

The child looked at Chen Xiao, swallowed his saliva, and then said, "Okay, sister, you and I can come." ”

After speaking, he took the sign next to him and turned to leave.

Chen Mengxi got up and pulled Chen Xiao, and said in a low voice, "Brother, let's go." ”

Chen Xiao shook his head helplessly, and followed with the Heavenly Wolf Ancient Halberd on his back.

When the two of them didn't notice, the child inadvertently smiled.

The place the child said was actually not more remote, about ten miles away from Chilan City, and it was not a deserted place.

After about an hour, Chen Xiao and his sister finally arrived at their destination.

At this time, a small three-story building, made entirely of wood, did not look very sturdy, but judging from the traces of erosion, it was also some years old.

"This is our little inn, sister, don't dislike it. ”

"How could it be?" Chen Mengxi replied with a smile, the child's immature voice made her completely lose her resistance, she beckoned to Chen Xiao, "Brother, hurry up, why is it so slow." ”

"It's coming. Chen Xiao walked with his chest hugged and muttered, "Alas, my stupid sister." ”

When I entered the inn, there were not many people, about a dozen or so. Chen Xiao glanced at those people, and sat down beside Chen Mengxi, who didn't care.

"It's all done?" Chen Xiao suddenly asked.

"Hmm. Chen Mengxi returned the remaining money to Chen Xiao, and said a little proudly: "It's also very cheap, and the folk customs here are also very simple, how can my brother think it's so bad." ”

Chen Xiao smiled undeniably and looked at the woman at the front desk, "Boss, serve some food." ”

He casually put the Heavenly Wolf Ancient Halberd aside, looked around, and found that there were several pairs of eyes looking at the Heavenly Wolf Ancient Halberd.

Chen Xiao sneered in his heart, "A few people dare to spy on the Heavenly Wolf Ancient Halberd, if they can't do it, then let them go and have no return." ”

After waiting for a while, the proprietress came over directly with a few dishes and smiled, "Two slow use." ”

Chen Mengxi nodded and replied politely.

"Brother, it's been a day, you can eat first. ”

Chen Xiao didn't move the chopsticks, he wanted to know if there was any medicine in this dish, if there was, let his sister eat it first, and shoot it himself, although there is a certain risk, but it is stronger than both of them falling, and the medical skills in the room are not in vain, "My sister eats first, how can there be a reason for my brother to move chopsticks first." ”

Chen Mengxi still wanted to speak, but Chen Xiao grabbed a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Brother, you ......"

Chen Xiao said: "You are fighting with me. ”

Seeing that his sister had eaten a few more bites, Chen Xiao asked, "How is it?"

Chen Mengxi nodded, and did not forget to put vegetables in Chen Xiao's bowl.

Seeing that his sister didn't have anything to do, Chen Xiao muttered in his heart: Is it really me worrying?

He took a bite of the food, tasted it, felt good, and there was really nothing unusual about his body, so he also ate it.

In the past few days, Chen Xiao and his sister have been on the road, and they are all mountains and rivers and plains on the way, so there is really nothing else to eat except hunting.

"Have you eaten enough?", Chen Mengxi looked at Chen Xiao with a smile.

Chen Xiao nodded and said, "Let's go, let's go back first, it's been a day, take a shower and rest early." ”

Chen Mengxi hummed, got up and walked upstairs. Chen Xiao felt that since there was no problem with the food, the heart hanging in his heart was also relaxed, so he opened another one by himself.

"Take a shower. Chen Xiao entered the room, took off the clothes on his upper body, and moved his muscles and bones. In the past few days, I have been trekking through mountains and rivers, and my body is sweating too much, and I only feel uncomfortable.

Entering the bucket, the warm water temperature made every pore of Chen Xiao open, enjoying the comfort, and quietly leaning on the barrel.

Suddenly, a strong feeling of dizziness made Chen Xiao's mind a little confused.

"What's going on?" Chen Xiao held his head and climbed out of the bucket. He looked up, and felt that everything in the room was wandering, and he suddenly thought that his sister should be the same as himself.

"Oh no, something happened to Mengxi. ”

He endured a strong feeling of dizziness and stumbled to pick up the Heavenly Wolf Ancient Halberd beside him.

Just as he was about to go out, the door to the room suddenly opened.

Chen Xiao gasped and looked up at the people at the door, including the proprietress and the unconscious Chen Mengxi.

"Let go of her. ”

Chen Xiao roared in a low voice, and his spiritual power was released without reservation, but it immediately dispersed.

"Do you want to do it after being hit by my water smoke?" The proprietress sneered, raised Chen Mengxi's head with one hand, and said, "If you know each other, hand over all the money and everything." ”

"You!" Chen Xiao only felt that dizziness hit him again, and he almost didn't stop, "How did you poison you." ”

He obviously didn't feel that there was a problem in the food, but now that he thought about it, it should be the poison in the meal, or the water in the bath.

The proprietress chuckled, "There is no poison in the meal, and this water is not poisonous, but the combination of the two, one inside and one outside, is my water smoke." Once poisoned, spiritual power must not be released for two days. ”

"Okay, I'll hand it over. ”

Chen Xiao gritted his teeth, took out all the things from the ring with difficulty, and then threw them to the proprietress.

Behind the proprietress a man skillfully picked up the things.

Chen Xiao looked at the proprietress and said, "Let him go." ”

The proprietress smiled and pushed Chen Mengxi over, Chen Xiao hugged her hand and sat on the ground.

The proprietress turned around and went out the door, looking at a fat man beside her, "Kill it." ”

"Yes!"
