Chapter 374 Forced to eavesdrop
In just two days, the journey was already halfway through. Nanzhi and Shen Wenchen sat on the donkey cart and marveled at the sight of them quickly moving backwards from them.
The donkey must not go a hundred yards?
The old man was sitting leisurely in front of the car, holding a dry pancake in one hand and a bunch of candied haws in the other, eating happily.
"Boy, I think you are all capable." The old man smiled, not feeling that his appearance was inconsistent with his appearance.
"Senior, you were joking." Shen Wenchen replied humbly. After hesitating for a moment, he finally asked his doubts.
"I wonder who the senior is? What does it have to do with my original adventure?"
Shen Wenchen spoke implicitly and did not directly ask himself what happened after he passed out on the road.
If Nannan could return to that world, it could be said that she was originally from there to justify this statement, but what about herself?
Why did you go there for no reason?
"It's destined." The old man glanced at Shen Wenchen and shook his head.
"But that boy is unreliable and will always cause trouble in the future. You should be careful, especially you, little girl."
As the old man spoke, he glanced at Nanzhi meaningfully.
Nanzhi's heart sank and he nodded.
Last time, Xiao He asked her to be careful before leaving, saying that she had been targeted.
She knew that she did not belong to this world. For the past two or three months, her heart had been in a state of ups and downs, and she could never settle down.
Now that "Teacher Wu" mentioned it, she naturally became more nervous.
There is no one who is not afraid of death, not to mention that she now has too many things that she cannot let go of.
"Little girl, you have to remember that your heart cannot be crooked. If it is crooked, you will be found. If you stand upright, there will always be someone who turns a blind eye and goes around looking for you. other people."
"Thank you, senior, for your teachings."
Nanzhi said gratefully.
"You can just let me eat more while we're on this trip."
The old man put the last piece of cake crumbs in his hand into his mouth, and then he freed up one hand to pat the donkey's butt.
"Good boy, run faster!"
The donkey seemed to have received the order, its hooves flew into the air, and it ran like a thousand-mile horse.
It was not until the evening of the third day that a few people gathered around the firewood pile and were about to light a fire for cooking, when they heard rustling sounds from the woods nearby.
Nanzhi immediately took Yuanbao into his arms, and then followed closely beside the old man, while Shen Wenchen drew his sword and guarded the front vigilantly.
"Xiao Qi, if you don't like Yuan Bao, stay away from her! But if you have the slightest interest in her, don't always show such a cold face!"
Chi Sheng was rarely angry. His face was no longer as free and unrestrained as before. Veins popped up on his forehead. He looked at Xiao Qi as if he wanted to tear him into pieces.
In the past, no matter how indifferent this boy was to Yuan Bao, he never said anything.
After all, the two of them are still just babies, and it's too early to talk about feelings.
Moreover, his daughter has always been rushing to be someone else's follower. He has nothing to say. The most he can do is wait until Xiao Qi is older and let him take Yueyue away.
But now it's better. When I came back from a trip, even my daughter was gone!
But Xiao Qi still didn't know anything about it, and the second child tried the medicine on his own and lost consciousness.
It's been two days since they set off, and they can't find any trace of their daughter.
Qingfeng Village is located deep in the mountains and old forests. If you are lucky, you just got lost. If you are not lucky, you may have been picked up by a hungry wolf from somewhere.
"Master, I just, just want to repay the favor."
Xiao Qi pursed her lips, her young face showing a forbearance that did not match her age.
"You don't want to repay your kindness, you just want to treat your sister in my Qingfeng Village." Chi Sheng had a tired look on his eyebrows. He had already said that the old Taoist priest's words were not true, but now he is better. I don't know where to find the ingot.
"The boss..."
Xiao Qi's little face gradually lost color, fearing that he would drive her and Yueyue away.
He can leave, but Yueyue is now seriously ill. If he leaves Qingfeng Village, he may not survive this month.
"That's all, let's go."
Chi Sheng waved his hand and said nothing more to him.
Xiaoqi is just a child.
Although he has experienced a lot, he is still only nine years old, and he is still not in a position to do anything to the doll.
Yuan Bao's eyes lit up as soon as he heard the voices of his father and Xiao Qi, and he wanted to go over.
But after listening to the conversation between the two, Yuan Bao suddenly couldn't stop struggling.
Feeling that the little one collapsed in his arms like a deflated rubber ball, Nanzhi felt a little distressed and could only pat her back gently to express comfort.
Everything was quiet originally, but then the donkey snorted, which was particularly loud in the woods.
Just as Chi Sheng was about to leave, he heard movement, his eyes dimmed, and his hand had already grasped the sword.
His martial arts skills are not superb, but he is barely passable.
Even if you encounter two thieves, you can deal with them.
Xiao Qi's little face was tense, but she was stunned when she saw the person behind the bushes.
Yuan Bao seemed to be darker and thinner again. Just looking at her like this, you could see her pointed chin.
The little girl lost her usual noisy enthusiasm when seeing him. Perhaps she had just listened to their conversation, and now she was looking at her with disappointment.
"Yuanbao?" Chi Sheng almost dropped the sword in his hand when he saw his daughter who was losing weight.
But when he saw Shen Wenchen, his movements froze for a moment.
The way the man held the sword and the evil aura around him reminded him.
That man is from the official family.
And he also killed many people.
"Dad." Yuan Bao smiled a little reluctantly, looking like he might as well cry.
Nanzhi saw clearly that it was indeed Chi Sheng and Xiao Qi, and then he let go of his hand protecting Yuan Bao, smiled and nodded to them as a greeting.
"Where have you been?" Chi Sheng ignored Shen Wenchen, but put down his sword and held Yuan Bao in his arms.
"Daddy, I'm sorry for making you worry." The little girl opened her mouth in a dull voice, and then glanced at Xiao Qi who was standing aside. She wanted to say something, but closed her mouth again.
She doesn't like Brother Xiaoqi anymore!
She didn’t want to tell Brother Xiao Qi about finding ginseng!
"It's okay, it's okay, just come back." Shen Wenchen held the little baby tightly in his arms, fearing that it was all just a dream.
"You can't do this again, you know?"
He has been busy recently with the registration of people in the village, and he has also neglected Yuanbao.
When he came back a few days ago, he found that Yuan Bao was missing. At that moment, he felt as if his heart had been gouged out, and he was empty.
"I understand." Yuan Bao nodded, lying in Chi Sheng's arms and quietly wiping away the tears from his eyes.
