Thousand Souls Introduction

Chapter 23: Don't dare to sing loudly, frighten the people in the sky 3

"The prince? Son, are you all right?"

The vague voice came to his ears, and Zhuang also felt that his mind gradually returned to his body. He moved his fingers, and they were all frozen and stiff. When he opened his eyes, he jumped on the mossy stone steps, and his chest was also hurt by the stone steps.

"Why did you fall here? Do you need help?"

Ah, I heard a woman talking just now. Zhuang Yi stood up and looked up to see a young woman in a water-red dress, looking at him worriedly with a bunch of early spring mountain flowers.

When the woman saw that he had been silent all the time, and thought that he could not speak, she gestured with one hand, as if to make him understand what she meant.

"Thank you, girl. Xiaosheng was just too tired and hungry, so he accidentally fainted here. It's okay." He moved his frozen limbs and sat down on the stone steps. He couldn't take care of the moss and mud all over his body. At this moment, the most important thing was what was hidden in his body...

Zhuang Yi groped in his arms for a while, and finally pulled out a flat package wrapped in oilcloth. After repeatedly confirming that it was not damaged, he was relieved and was about to put the package back in place. Suddenly, something stretched out in front of him, which scared him almost rolled down the stone steps.

After a closer look, it turned out that the woman handed over a cloth bag.

"There is some food here and a bag of water. If you don't mind, please take it." The woman did not notice his vigilance and explained with a smile.

... Can such a good thing happen? Zhuang couldn't help looking at her suspiciously. He has been about two years, and his eyes are clear, not like a calculating villain. Thank you for saving me. I don't know where the girl's home is? I will thank you when I have a little birthday.

The woman shook her head: "You're welcome, you're welcome. It's what I often do to rescue passers-by, and I don't want to thank you. If the prince is all right, I have to hurry home, so I will say goodbye first.

"Please wait a moment!" This must be the fairy sent by God to help him! Zhuang Yi hurriedly said to stay, "Do you dare to ask the girl, is there a cave nearby where you can avoid the rain?"

"There are no fierce beasts in the mountain, and naturally there are no caves. If the prince needs a place to live, go straight along the mountain road. Turn to the right when you meet the big banyan tree. Not far away, there is an abandoned wooden house. Although there is leaking rain, at least you can avoid it temporarily."

That's great! All this seemed to be arranged. I escaped without injury. When I was hungry and cold, someone sent food and even guided me to my hiding place. It's really better! Zhuang Yi seemed to see that countless gold and silver were flying towards him after the event.

And the woman just looked at him again, turned to another fork in the road, and soon disappeared into the clouds.

Zhuang Yi did not dare to delay. He hurried forward along the stone steps with the bag of food, and finally found the dilapidated wooden house before his legs were tired. He didn't dare to rush into the wooden house without delay, blocked the door with the tables and chairs in the room, and then sat down on the bare earthen kang and took out dry food and stuffed it desperately into his mouth.

After eating and drinking enough, he wiped his mouth casually and eagerly took out the oilcloth package again and carefully unfolded it.

The oilcloth is wrapped layer after layer, which shows how much he attaches importance to the items there.

"What you need to do now is..." Zhuang Yi took out the pieces of paper wrapped in the oilcloth one by one and eagerly stared at the dots of different sizes on it.

What he has to do is to arrange the correct order and understand them. As long as he can tell the meaning in it completely, there is no need to talk about the money and beauties! - Yes, if you want to marry a wife, you have to marry a woman as beautiful as the fairy just now!

But... What on earth does this damn piece of paper mean?

***

The wind and snow are not small. Even if Han Ruxu wanted to leave, he had to shrink his neck in the "woo" wind to give up the idea.

On the side of the case, Si Si has fried the general and brought his share. Thank you very much." As he said this, he still stared at the Ziwei Baizhen Tuoben - obviously in front of him, but he couldn't get it.

"Although the story told by Lord Han is not very beautiful, it is also honest," Wei Tanyi seemed to be a little sleepy, and his voice was hoarse. "I can't go back now. Why don't I tell a story?"

Han Ruqi glanced at him and didn't say anything.

"Master has accepted four apprentices in his life. When the eldest brother Hua Ying died, I'm afraid that even my mother was not born. I almost heard about his deeds - even the master and apprentice, the eldest brother was an apprentice after washing his hands in a 60-year-old golden basin. I don't know him well. The second sister is older than Shucheng and the owner of the second palace, but she is also of the same generation. But it's a pity that the second sister only stayed in the palace for three years and then left.

"Wait!" Han Ruxu raised his hand and interrupted, "Didn't you say that your teacher is a place where you can only get in and out?"

Wei Tanyi bent the corners of his mouth: "Lord Han, don't worry, just listen to it."

"Sister Qian was an orphan rescued by the owner of the second palace at that time in a fire. She lost her parents and lost her memory in the fire. The master took her as an apprentice because he felt sorry for her, but he didn't teach her anything. He just hoped that she would live happily and peacefully. Brother Huaying's life is full of ups and downs, and the master may want to raise her in a different way.

"Because the master has no restrictions on her, what senior sister Qian does every day is to play on the mountain. She is familiar with the nest of every bird on the mountain, and is good friends with the wild deer and hare, and even the fish in the water are close to her. She once ran the whole mountain and then painted every corner on paper. Many places were not even visited by the master in person. I'm afraid that's what she's good at.

Han Ruqi didn't understand why he remembered to say this, but he listened to it with relish, and it was not easy to disturb him again.

Unexpectedly, Wei Tanyi suddenly changed her words: "In the third year in the palace, she escaped. The master was very shocked at that time. He had not come out of the confusion of why she fled. The owner of the second palace who picked her up had sent his son down the mountain to kill her.

"What?" Si Si blinked, "What happened? Why did Lord Shaoyin kill her?

Wei Tanyi stall: "Because Fuqin Palace is a place where you are not allowed to enter and exit. Not only that, senior sister Qian just got her master's oral teaching method not long before that, and letting her go will definitely cause a new disturbance in the world. So... she was killed."

"What did you save in the middle?" Han Ru asked.

How can a girl in the mountains and forests suddenly want to escape from her lifesaver? Is it because she recovers her memory and finds that her benefactor is an enemy, or is she tired of the sameness in the mountains and forests? Or do you know that you are desperate and want to go down the mountain to revenge? ...No, didn't the people in front of him also leave? Didn't he also leave the teacher's door and do some tricks in the capital?

Thinking of this, Han Ruxu looked at him suspiciously. This guy must have panicked.

"Why did Lord Han look at me like this? I didn't kill the beauty," Wei Tanyi squinted and smiled. "Well, you may also guess that she saw a person and saw something in his hand, so she recovered her memory. She knew that she could not be good at it and could avenge the whole village. But the master refused to teach her the skill of killing, so she ran away.

"What did she see?" Although there was a feeling of awkwardness in his heart, the answer seemed to be in his mouth. Han Ruxu couldn't help asking.

Wei Tanyi raised one of his eyebrows and suddenly grabbed the Ziwei Baizhen Tuoben on the table: "That's it."
