111 A ghost knocks at the door in the middle of the night
Although Xiao Wuji's oath was true, Jiang Shan actually didn't have any hope for his promise, but since he wanted to give it a try, Jiang Shan naturally couldn't forcibly stop it, so he immediately watched coldly and hid to the side to enjoy his leisure.
Although the stove room is as simple as many farmers in the same countryside, it is also relatively clean, even if there has been such a huge change in their home in the past few days, it is still neatly adjusted, which shows that Xiao Wuji is usually a more diligent person.
It is estimated that even the little leopard wanted to see his jokes at this time, so he didn't deliberately help him, but just symbolically hid behind the stove to light the fire.
Xiao Wuji was naturally not intimidated by the difficulties in front of him, only to see that he first moved a stool into the stove room, and then stepped on the stool to dig out a bowl of rice from the rice tank, and then poured it into the water scoop very skillfully and washed it. After the rice had been washed, he stepped on a stool and poured the rice into the pot, and then added spring water.
"Senior Brother Wuji, we can't just entertain Master for rice, right?" Although the little leopard admired Xiao Wuji's ability to do things very much at this time, he couldn't help but raise the doubts in his heart.
"I ...... Otherwise, I can get a few sweet potatoes and put them in, and the others will not work anymore!" It is estimated that Xiao Wuji also seemed to feel that it would be disrespectful to only invite Master to eat rice at this time, so he immediately promised to be embarrassed to continue.
"Hehe! It's pretty good that junior brother can do this! Not being able to do anything else doesn't mean you're incompetent, it's because you're really too young! Do you have anything else here now? Let senior brother come over and help you now!"
"Yes, there's an old hen! Let's go catch it now, kill it, cook it for Master!" Xiao Wuji saw that his senior brother had come to help him, so he immediately came to his senses, and he rushed over to kill the chicken with the little leopard.
In this way, a dinner that was not sumptuous was finally made after the busy work of the two boys. Jiang Shanna enjoyed the filial piety of his disciples for the first time in his life, so it tasted quite delicious, and he couldn't help but praise a sentence or two from time to time.
"Master, you eat chicken legs! Master, you eat chicken!" After the two children were praised by Jiang Shan, they ate more energetically, of course, they did not forget to offer the fattest food to their master, only to see that the two children were all scrambling to take the chicken and send it into Jiang Shan's bowl.
Finally, a very happy dinner party ended. At this time, as the two boys cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, Jiang Shan hid in the inner room to rest like a prince.
The moonlight was hazy, the breeze was caressing, and the dark night finally fell silent again, except for the occasional movement of a frightened bird or beast.
"Senior brother, you better go back and rest quickly! It's enough for me to guard here alone!" Although there was nothing dangerous in the entire mountain forest, the little leopard still wanted to guard the courtyard in case someone disturbed Master's sweet dream.
"No, I must accompany my senior brother here! You must know that Master Lu Dao will go away after tonight, and we don't know how long it will take for Lu Dao to see his old man in the future! You just let me accompany you to do more things for Master!" Xiao Wuji was also quite sensible at this time, and he really wanted to dedicate a little more while Master was by his side.
"Actually, I'm also very scared!Then let the junior brother accompany the senior brother to protect the master!" Seeing that Xiao Wuji was so understanding, the little leopard touched his head very approvingly, and then hugged him tightly in his arms.
Xiao Wuji was young after all, and he was overworked at this time, so although he wanted to accompany his senior brother to protect his master, he still fell asleep in the arms of the little leopard not long after he was sleepy.
Of course, at this time, Jiang Shan definitely couldn't lie in the house by himself to enjoy the blessings, but let the two underage children protect him, only to see him standing at the window silently watching the lovely pair of brothers outside! In Jiang Shan's opinion, in addition to verifying the character of the two of them, he still had to test their courage. Because Jiangshan knows very clearly that if a person wants to mingle in the rivers and lakes, if he doesn't have the guts, he will definitely not be able to.
"It seems that these two children are still relatively filial, and the sense of unity is also good, they should be regarded as superior characters! Now what needs to be verified is their courage, but how to verify their courage?"
The moonlight was slanting in the west, and the night was deeper, and after the decision was made, Jiang Shan secretly opened the window and jumped out. Originally, according to Jiang Shan's meaning, he wanted to make some random movements to scare the two of them, but he didn't expect that after he went out, he found that in the mountains and forests in the distance, there seemed to be someone who was aware of Suosuo's actions.
"Why is it that at this time, there are still people who come out to move? Could it be that there are still some thieves who don't want to sneak attack themselves?" Since Jiang Shan accidentally discovered this matter, of course he refused to let it go easily, so he immediately shook his body and jumped onto the tree, and then quietly groped through the dense bushes.
Unexpectedly, he was really guessed by Jiang Shan, it was clearly a person walking nervously, and he was still holding the hilt of the sword in his hand, as if he was ready to fight at any time.
Jiang Shan could not determine the identity of this person at this time, so naturally he could not accurately judge his intentions and purposes. In order to better understand the other party's true purpose, Jiang Shan still followed quietly and did not let the other party discover his traces.
"Brother Ma, Brother Lu, where are you? Now it's hard to die little sister! Do you know that I have always been afraid of walking at night, but in this vast mountain, there is no home, what do you think I should do?" The man chattered as if he was talking about his own thoughts, and he didn't expect that he was still a female chivalrous guest who missed the night.
"What a fucking stupid woman! Since you are afraid of the dark, why do you have to go out and walk alone at night? But who are these big brother Ma and big brother Lu? Could it be that they are all related to our Peach Blossom Valley? Then let me scare her first!" Jiang Shan thought about how to find out the identity of the other party, so he immediately thought that it was best to scare her into the thatched hut of Wuji.
"Who? who is it?" the woman was walking in fear, and she didn't think that her back seemed to be touched, so she immediately turned around in fear and asked.
Jiang Shan naturally couldn't be found by her, so after gently stroking it, she immediately quickly and lightly shifted her position, and immediately let the woman find a nowhere to be found.
After the woman was frightened, she no longer dared to whisper, only to see that he was panicked like a lost dog and continued to crawl forward.
"No, left, yes, that's it, yes, no, it's off again!"
"Ghost, ghost, ghost!" The woman tried to find the other party's traces at first after being frightened by the rivers and mountains one after another, but after she experienced many failures, she no longer dared to continue looking. Later, even Jiang Shan stood behind her and didn't bother to dodge, and she didn't expect that the woman was still panicked like a lost dog, and still acted according to Jiang Shan's instructions.
Finally, after a long run, the woman threw away her sword, ran away from her shoes and socks, tore her clothes, and unkempt her hair, and ran to the side of the small courtyard of Wuji.
"Bang bang
"Senior brother, junior brother, wake up, how do I feel like there are people outside!" At this time, it was not so much that the woman was terrified, but that the little leopard was frightened to death, and I saw him calling Xiao Wuji in a low voice, and I wanted to use force against him.
"What's the matter, brother, do you seem to be scared?" Xiao Wuji finally woke up from his sleep under the deliberate call of the little leopard, because he didn't know what was going on at that time, so he immediately asked with puzzled eyes.
"Someone! How do I feel like there's someone outside!" the little leopard saw that Xiao Wuji had finally woken up, and then slowly mustered up the courage to come to Wuji's ear and whispered.
"What? There was someone outside? Why didn't I hear any movement?" At this time, it was a coincidence, it was estimated that the woman seemed to hear the movement in the courtyard, and she didn't know what to do, but stopped knocking on the door.
"Someone! There must be someone! I could clearly hear it just now! Why can't I hear it now?" The little leopard was puzzled and wanted to get out of the hole to take a closer look, but after all, he didn't have the courage, so he had to be helplessly puzzled.
"No, it's already the dead of night now, not to mention that we are in the deep mountains and old forests, how can there be strangers appearing? Maybe the ghosts are coming to scare us?" Xiao Wuji usually listened to his grandmother tell a lot of ghost stories, but at this time, I didn't expect him to be naïve to get in touch.
"Ghosts, you say ghosts, are there really ghosts to scare us?" muttered the little leopard, and when he said he didn't dare to continue, and vaguely seemed to want to run into the house at once to hide.
"No! Absolutely not! This is the first time in our lives that we are standing guard for the master, even if we are scared to death today, we can't run away, if that is the case, we will definitely be looked down upon by the master!" It is estimated that Xiao Wuji has thoroughly seen the true thoughts in the heart of the little leopard, so I saw him admonishing and encouraging, and he always stood there, without even the slightest waver!
Since Xiao Wuji has said so, even if the little leopard is a bad seed, he can't admit it in front of his junior brother, so he forcibly controls his trembling body and insists on staying there to accompany Xiao Wuji.
"Bang bang bang! bang! open the door!" Originally, according to the crazy woman's thinking, the two boys in the courtyard would definitely come over to open the door for themselves after discussion, but they didn't expect to see any reaction from the left and right, so they couldn't hold their breath anymore, and immediately waved their hands and continued to bang on the wooden door.
"Who...... Who!" Even if the little leopard cowards it again, it is impossible for him to let his junior brother be harmed, so I saw that he immediately hugged Xiao Wuji in his arms, and then asked tremblingly.
"I ...... Come and stay!Hurry up and open the door!I'm going to go in!" It is estimated that at this time, the crazy woman was also completely frightened, and she couldn't imagine that she could usually enter the courtyard with just a jump, and at this time she was pitiful and begged for the little leopard.
"Who are you? I've never seen you before, so how dare I open the door for you?" When it came to the lodging person, Xiao Wuji was quite vigilant, so he hurriedly replaced the little leopard and asked first.
"I ...... I'm Yan Xiuying of the Mo family! I seem to have been here with you before, so please open the door for me quickly, okay?" In order to gain the trust of the two brothers, the mother-in-law immediately reported her name and origin, obviously already frightened.
"Yan Xiuying, why have I never heard of this name? I still can't believe you, so I can't open the door for you, please leave quickly!" Xiao Wuji has been bitten by a snake for ten years and is afraid of the well rope, so he is willing to easily believe Yan Xiuying if he says anything, and he will drive her away immediately.
"Don't! Don't, please don't drive me away, okay? I've seen the adults in your family, can you please let the adults in your family come out?" Yan Xiuying is now immortal in the Yellow River, so she is still entangled with a dead face, and she refuses to leave anything.
"My lords, my family has already rested! Please leave the heroine early! Now we have to go back to rest!" Xiao Wuji is very smart, so he did not completely expose his weaknesses, but casually said that his adults were all rested.
"Don't! Don't! Don't drive me away, okay? I'm afraid! I'm very afraid! There are ghosts in the woods outside! Please let me in quickly!" This time, Yan Xiuying's begging was quite miserable, and she wanted to find a hole to get into.
