Chapter 26 Stay

Zhao Haoran was overjoyed. He didn't expect to come to Shigang City not far away again by mistake. "Thank you, father-in-law, I'll leave first."

"Wait a minute." Zhao Haoran didn't take a few steps, but was called by the village head, "Young man, you can't walk here for two or three days from Shigang City. I think you have no body. I'm afraid you can't support it for such a long time. It's getting late. It's better to rest here for one night and leave tomorrow morning."

There are not many words to talk about, but the old man can obviously feel that Zhao Haoran is not a bad person, and he speaks politely. Maybe it is the child of a large family. It is not impossible for him to get up at night, in the wilderness, and be eaten by beasts, so he has the idea of staying overnight.

Zhao Haoran hesitated for a moment and nodded obediently, "Then it's troublesome for my father-in-law."

Leave the hidden cave where Xueluosha took him. He didn't stop on the way, and his body was not particularly tired, but he was a little mentally unable to stand it. He was not in a hurry to rush for a while. He simply took a night's rest first. The two- or three-day journey that the old man said should be more than enough for the soul. .

Like Zhaojiazhuang, this little Lizhuang has been closed for a long time, and few outsiders come and go. When they see men and women in Zhao Haoran's village come together to see the excitement.

Zhao Haoran is a little sad. If it weren't for the disciples of Baiyi Shura and the Lishan School, they might still live a peaceful and happy life. Nowadays, there are frequent wars between the four empires in the southern continent. Inland cities such as Shigang City are still calm, but with the spread of the war, they don't know that this little Li Zhuang can How long will it be quiet?

Walking on the pavement road made of bluestone and watching the cooking smoke floating in dozens of houses, Zhao Haoran's heart was also a rare peace.

The old man lives in a hut in the center of the village. The layout of the room is very simple. The two wooden chairs in his eyes are the most important furniture. "Young man, you can rest in the inner room tonight. If you need anything, call me at any time, I will stay in the arm room."

Zhao Haoran said "thank you" respectfully and walked into the room alone. The old man took a look and bent down to walk out.

The inner room is still very simple, with a bed made of straw mat tightly, but it is much better than outside. Zhao Haoran has a sense of intimacy when he sees the straw mat bed. He has not lived in such a place for a long time. Although the environment of Lanhaizong is also relatively difficult, it is mainly for better cultivation, but compared with this But the villa is much better.

The sky was getting dark, and Zhao Haoran had been sitting cross-legged**, feeling the changes brought about by the improvement of strength.

Suddenly, there was a "touch" knock on the door, and Zhao Haoran shouted, "Come in."

I only heard a burst of fine footsteps slowly getting clearer and clearer. When he entered the inner room, Zhao Haoran raised his head. She was a little girl who was as beautiful as a new moon, a pair of beautiful eyes, long and bright, a beautiful Yao nose, fragrant cheeks and red, two cherry lips like orchid, and a blushing face without powder. The crystal clear snow-like skin is like ice and snow, with a graceful posture and a pure look.

He didn't expect that there would be such a beautiful woman in such a place. Zhao Haoran was stunned for a moment. A few seconds later, he felt a little inappropriate. This was really rude and coughed softly, "I don't know what's the girl is here?"

"My grandfather asked you to have dinner together." The girl blushed slightly and dressed very plainly. At a glance, she knew that she was living in a poor place.

Zhao Haoran asked doubtfully, "Your grandfather?"

"Oh," the little girl laughed, "My grandfather is the village head. He said there was a guest."

Zhao Haoran smiled and said, "I'm rude. Zhao Haoran, I don't know what to call the girl?"

"My name is Xiaohui." Xiaohui blinked her eyes and looked at Zhao Haoran, who came down from **. He was much taller than the village teenager who cut firewood for a long time. His appearance was not outstanding, but he showed a graceful temperament and smiled, which made people feel like a spring breeze. He had never seen such an outstanding young man. Xiaohui couldn't help looking at it a few more times.

The two walked out of the room talking and laughing. Although Xiaohui had been outside, she was very lively and kept asking questions. Zhao Haoran told Xiaohui what he knew, which made this little girl who was not very well-seated.

Although the sky is dark, there is moonlight, and everything outside can be seen clearly. In such an environment, Zhao Haoran feels very comfortable, his strength has improved to a higher level, and the absorption of the power of the moon is also faster.

There is a small square table outside the house. The village head sits on the stool and smokes dry cigarettes. There are several small dishes on the table, which are often eaten by the villagers. Today, due to the guests, he cooked two more dishes.

Xiaohui sat aside obediently, "Grandpa, I called someone here."

The village head nodded, pointed to the stool beside him, and motioned Zhao Haoran to sit down.

Zhao Haoran arched his hand and sat down. He hadn't eaten such a delicious food for a long time. He couldn't help moving his chopsticks a few more times. Xiaohui looked at Zhao Haoran's favorite food and kept holding it on his plate. "If you like to eat, eat more."

The village head's eyes kept sweeping between the two, which made Zhao Haoran a little embarrassed. It could be seen that the old man was warning him to stay away from his granddaughter.

"Xiaohui, where are your parents?" In order to avoid embarrassment, Zhao Haoran casually asked.

Xiaohui looked a little gloomy, "My father was drafted into the army three years ago, but he never came back later. My mother's missing disease was also outdated last year."

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." Zhao Haoran touched the tip of his nose, but he didn't expect that a casual sentence would reveal Xiaohui's pain.

Xiaohui took a mouthful of rice, "It's okay. I'm used to it, but there is no prime at home, and many things have to make Grandpa suffer. I feel sad, but there is nothing I can do."

Zhao Haoran nodded. Indeed, there is no young and middle-aged labor in the village. Fortunately, Xiaohui's grandfather is the village head and has done a lot of things for the village, otherwise life may be more difficult.

While thinking about the problem, he suddenly felt a sound of wind above his head. Zhao Haoran instinctively wanted to use his soul skills to kill the other party, but he still held it back, because he found that there was only an ordinary person behind him, as if he were still a person from Xiao Li Zhuang. As soon as his arm was blocked, the wooden stick was broken into two pieces.

Zhao Haoran looked back and saw a young man in coarse cloth, looking similar to his age, with a changeable look on his face and anger in surprise.

Xiaohui stood up and said, "Meng Li, what are you doing? This is my grandfather's guest. Get out of here."

Meng Li frowned and said, "Xiaohui, what's wrong with you? He is just an outsider. As soon as you look at his clothes, you will know that he is not a good person. Maybe the mountain thief sent him to explore the way, or drive him away quickly."

" shut up." The village head threw the cigarette stick on the table. "Meng Li, you go. This is my guest. Let's talk about it tomorrow. It's getting late. Go back and have a rest."

Meng Li looked at Zhao Haoran unwillingly, but was deterred by the majesty of the village head and left honestly.

"Are you okay?" Xiaohui grabbed Zhao Haoran's arm worriedly and carefully looked at any scars.

However, Zhao Haoran's body will not be scratched even if it is hit by an ordinary sword, and a wooden stick can't help him. He shook his head with a smile, "My skin is rough and thick, and it's nothing serious."

Xiaohui laughed and looked at Zhao Haoran and was relieved. "Don't get me wrong. I have nothing to do with him, but Meng Li has always wanted to pursue me, but I don't like him very much, so I didn't agree." After saying that, Xiaohui felt a little wrong. Did they ask him why he took the initiative to do more and blushed again.

There was no way to continue this meal. Zhao Haoran said goodbye and returned to his room. Xiaohui also began to clean up.
