5. Children are sad and happy
As the so-called chaos in the world, people's minds change, and when the war is in chaos, it is most likely to give birth to demons. At the end of the Song Dynasty and the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, there were two so-called two major demon cults in the world, one of which was Mingjiao.
This Mingjiao, also known as the Illuminatia and Manichaeism, is a major cult in the world, which was introduced into China since the Tang Dynasty, and its followers behave strangely, their words and deeds are absurd, and they have a bad reputation in Middle-earth, and they have never been tolerated by the world and the imperial court.
Since the Ming Sect spread to the east, many cults in the West have seen the benefits and have also preached to the East, including the Blood Demon Sect from Beihai, which later changed its name to the Night Demon Sect, and acted in the name of the Easy Palace, I don't know if it wants to compete with the Ming Sect.
However, the ambition of the Night Demon Sect is not large, and the poison is not widespread, so it is not as good as the Mingjiao tree, so the Mingjiao has aroused the complaints of ordinary people in the world, so that the imperial court has repeatedly sent troops to suppress bandits, while the Xiaoyao Palace has made a fortune in silence and secretly cultivated power.
Jiuying smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, big brother, I am a member of the Ming Sect. He knew that Mingjiao was misunderstood by the world, and he was afraid that the goshawk would disagree. But his eyes were open, and he looked directly at the goshawk, as if waiting for the goshawk to question him.
Goshawk said strangely: "But your kung fu has no sign of Mingjiao, you have not joined Mingjiao for a long time." ”
Jiu Ying nodded and said: "I only swore to believe in Mingzun the year before last, but the sect leader is extremely important to me, thinking that I am devout to Mingzun, and I am exceptionally promoted. ”
Goshawk was taken aback and hurriedly said, "Guardian Dharma King?"
Li Shuxiu listened to the two of them for a long time, his mind was messy, and he asked, "Second brother, do you have a very high position as a Dharma Protector?"
Jiu Ying smiled and said, "It's not small, except for the sect leader and the two Dharma protectors, this is the biggest position in the sect." ”
Goshawk and Li Shuxiu glanced at each other, their eyes were a little surprised, the goshawk's eyes were particularly confused, and the light flickered, not knowing what they were thinking.
Jiu Ying stood up and said, "I will explain the matter of this religion to the eldest brother and third sister in detail in the future, but at this moment I have something important to do, and I need to leave for a while, and I will return in about two hours." With that, he said goodbye to the two of them, returned to the village, took out the money, gave it to Abra, gave a few words, and then turned and left.
Li Shuxiu had just bowed to him, and suddenly parted from him at this moment, feeling a little reluctant in his heart, looking at his distant figure from afar, and kept waving at him. Soon after, she saw Abrar leading the women out of the house, stripping the horse thieves of their clothes, stripping them naked, digging a pit on the spot, and sending them to the ground for peace.
Li Shuxiu looked at the goshawk and saw that he was confused again, and couldn't help but be a little funny, and secretly thought: "At this moment, I and the goshawk brother have actually become brother and sister, it's really weird, weird." In an instant, there was a faint disappointment in my heart, but after thinking about it carefully, I didn't know why.
After a while, the goshawk came to his senses, and the two followed the Kazakhs back to the tent, and Abra ordered the women to serve the food, and the three of them, who had not eaten properly for many days, had a great appetite and swallowed, and ate happily and praised.
Goshawk said: "Miss Li, the second brother's real name is Yang Li, right?"
Li Shuxiu and the county lord of Jiuhe shouted in unison, and Li Shuxiu said angrily: "What do you call me? You should call me the third sister!" The county lord of Jiuhe exclaimed: "Second brother? Who is your second brother? Is it the ninth infant son?"
Li Shuxiu was quite proud and said with a smile: "Yes, it's a pity that you weren't there, otherwise the four of us can worship together, and it would be very lively." ”
The county lord of Jiuhe patted his chest and exclaimed, "It's okay, it's okay." ”
Li Shuxiu was quite strange and asked, "Why are you so happy?"
The county lord of Jiuhe blurted out: "If you become brother and sister, then you can't become husband and wife? ”
Li Shuxiu said "Huh", stared at Jiuhe in a daze, the county lord of Jiuhe knew that he was speechless, patted his head anxiously, and stammered: "I...... Jokes, don't take it seriously. ”
Li Shuxiu glanced at the goshawk and couldn't help muttering: "If you become a brother and sister, you can't get married?" All of a sudden, my chest became bored for no apparent reason.
Goshawk saw the two of them chattering, pulling the topic out of bounds, and was angry in his heart, but he couldn't have a seizure, at this time the two finally stopped, and hurriedly said: "The second brother's real name is Yang Li, right?"
Li Shuxiu said: "It seems that he said this name. ”
The goshawk frowned, picked up a spoon, and lightly touched on a piece of meat, which made a sizzling sound as if it had been roasted.
Li Shuxiu and Jiuhe looked at it in a daze, and Li Shuxiu smiled: "Are you showing off your kung fu? Even if you have internal strength, you can barbecue meat, so what?"
Goshawk said: "That's not all. He lifted the spoon and put it down again, and before long the roast turned pale in color, and there was a frost on the surface.
Li Shuxiu and Jiuhe applauded loudly and applauded vigorously, Jiuhe smiled and said: "Brother Goshawk, your kung fu is really good, you can not only bake fire, but also make ice, what is the reason?"
Goshawk's expression was solemn, without any hint of ridicule, he said: "I'm just a beginner at the door, and my skills are very shallow, but this kung fu, called 'Flame Fire Ice Condensation Gong', is to use the internal force of the pole anode and yin to transmit the temperature of the palm as you like, and the sudden cold and heat are endless. ”
Li Shuxiu remembered the situation when the goshawk and the nine babies were fighting swords, suddenly woke up, clapped his hands and said: "That's right, the second brother's strength in the air makes this kung fu, right?"
The goshawk smiled approvingly and said, "The son can be taught." His expression changed, he sat solemnly, and said proudly: "He made it a fire skill, condensed this qi in the invisible sword qi, and covered it up very secretly, it was really ingenious and unpredictable, if I wasn't proficient in the method of perception, I was afraid that no one else in the world could detect it." From this inference, he must also be proficient in this ice condensing skill. ”
Li Shuxiu said in his heart: "Brother Goshawk is well-informed, and he seems to have been involved in the internal force moves of various sects and factions, and he is not very old, I really don't know where he learned such complicated knowledge?"
Goshawk said again: "The strangest thing is that this 'Flame Fire Ice Condensing Skill' is not the martial arts of the Bright Sect, but the most proud kung fu of the former Sect Master of the Easy Palace. ”
Li Shuxiu was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly asked: "Xiaoyao Palace? Is it the cult that worships the Xuanye Demon King?" Zhang Axe Mountain and Zhou Hanhai are both from Xiaoyao Palace, these two people have excellent kung fu, and they are rare in the world.
Goshawk smiled: "Xuanye Sect and Light Sect, anyway, both are Western religions, and there is no distinction between good and evil. However, the former sect leader of Xiaoyao Palace is called Yang Wuyan, and I heard Brother Zhang say that he disappeared quietly more than seven years ago and didn't know where he went. But now this second brother of mine is not only proficient in the internal force of the Xiaoyao Palace, but also has the same surname as the Yang Sect Master, haha, I can't figure out the truth in this. ”
Li Shuxiu suddenly understood what he meant, she lowered her voice and said softly: "Is the second brother a spy sent into the Ming Sect by the Xiaoyao Palace?"
Goshawk pondered for a while and said, "He may not be a spy, but his identity is very important, and we must not leak it out, otherwise it will ruin his plan." ”
Shuangshu nodded again and again, admiring the goshawk's wisdom. The goshawk lifted the tent and saw that it was getting late, so he put away the dishes and chopsticks, picked up the dining table, and walked out.
Li Shuxiu sat back in place, her face was slightly red, her breath was a little short, she sat on her knees, thinking quietly about her thoughts, the county lord of Jiuhe glanced at her, her eyes smiled, and she sighed greasyly: "Brother Goshawk is so thoughtful, he serves me comfortably, and his heart is ape, alas, it's a pity that I was confused for a while, and I actually bowed to him, bitter, it's really a wrong move, and I lost the whole game." ”
Li Shuxiu hurriedly said: "What are you talking nonsense, when did I think about it like this!"
The lord of Jiuhe County grinned, and said: "Oh, I am really a hard-working girl, with flowers and moon appearance, martial arts, three from four virtues, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, everything can be done, and I met my favorite lover, but I can't touch it, I can't touch it, I can't kiss it, I can't hold it, alas, it's the so-called empty guard is really lonely, Gu Ying pities himself where to complain ......"
was talking nonsense, Li Shuxiu suddenly flashed over, twisted on her cheeks, Jiuhe County Lord hissed in pain, and was about to complain, Li Shuxiu's figure shook, and he had already slipped out of the tent.
The Jiuhe County Lord laughed a few times, and the tent was empty, gradually falling silent. In the loneliness, she suddenly remembered Jiuying's words and smiles, and her heart couldn't help but feel sweet, melancholy, learning from Li Shuxiu's appearance, sitting down with her knees hugged, and burying her head in her legs.
――――
Li Shuxiu walked out of the tent and saw the bonfire shaking and sparkling in the distance, and the Kazakhs gathered in a circle, laughing and eating.
She had seen this scene countless times since she was a child, but she had never participated in it herself. As a person of different races, she seems to be separated from the villagers by an invisible curtain, and whenever it is time for a dinner, she often sits alone and looks at the joys, sorrows and sorrows of others from afar.
She found a grassy slope to sit down, thinking of the master who taught her martial arts, thinking of the grandfather who raised her, and thinking of her childhood sweetheart and her crush on Rapp, she sighed in a low voice, her nose was sore, and her eyes were moist.
Suddenly, a person walked beside him, and the man asked, "Miss Li, what's wrong with you?"
Li Shuxiu laughed, her depression dissipated, she pretended to be dissatisfied, and muttered, "What should you call me?"
The person who came was the goshawk, he sighed, and hurriedly said: "Third sister, third sister, are you sad in your heart? Why is your expression so sad?"
Li Shuxiu said: "I'm not angry with you. ”
The goshawk panicked for a while, patted his head and thought for a while, feeling that his efforts were in vain, so he asked tentatively: "But I just spoke in a hurry?" Third sister, you are the daughter of my father-in-law, with me here, naturally I can't let you do the heavy work of serving tea and moving the table, and I am also a person who has been in the military camp for a long time, speaking rudely, not understanding etiquette, if you are offended, please punish the third sister." ”
Li Shuxiu said with a smile: "You still don't know etiquette? She turned around, patted the grass beside her, and said, "Sit down and talk to me for a while." ”
The goshawk sat beside her, Li Shuxiu's heart was wide and slightly shy, but she had some of the unrestrained spirit of a Kazakh girl, and her heart was emotional, and she was not embarrassed, tilting her head sideways and leaning on his shoulder.
Seeing this, the goshawk was secretly amused, and thought: "This child is no longer a girl, and she still wants to be coquettish?" Yes, it is also because she has lacked parental care since she was a child, so she is a little immature, which is also reasonable. ”
Although he is well-informed and perceptive, he is extremely numb to the relationship between this man and woman, so he speculates like this, letting Li Shuxiu lean on, the moonlight on the grassland is sprinkled, and the silver light is draped, and the two of them snuggle tightly, each with their own hearts, but they both feel quiet and happy.
