Chapter 265tiao�zhuang 2
Cheng Yao kept walking forward, and there was no place to spread the fire, so she could only feel sorry for herself.
After walking for a long time, she suddenly realized that there was no unpleasant apology behind her. She slowed down and hesitated for a long time, wondering if Mu Xiangdong was doing something. Maybe he was silent behind, waiting for him to turn around. After struggling for a long time, I finally turned around.
"Mu Xiangdong?"
Cheng Yao turned around and did not see Mu Xiangdong. There was no one on the street. At this time, it was getting late, and the cry of crows came from the air. Cheng Yao suddenly felt afraid.
"Mu Xiangdong? Come out, we won't be kidding."
Cheng Yao took a few steps back and looked at the rooms on both sides of the street, but there was no trace of Mu Xiangdong.
So Cheng Yao stepped forward and didn't know when Mu Xiangdong disappeared, but she felt that she had gone so far unconsciously.
"No way, there is nothing here, and it will be missing?"
Cheng Yao guessed all kinds of results, and her sweat rolled down from her cheeks.
"Cheng Yao, here."
Mu Xiangdong shouted in front of him.
Cheng Yao quickly walked up and slapped Mu Xiangdong.
"Is this the time for a joke? Come to this unfamiliar place and disappear for me?"
Mu Xiangdong was slapped inexplicably. Naturally, there was no smile when he called her just now, but just rubbed his face.
"I'm not kidding either? Obviously, you walked too fast." Mu Xiangdong muttered in his heart.
"This girl, you misunderstood this young man. He just stopped and said a few words to me. He turned around and found that you had gone far away. Isn't that... come to you quickly?"
Just as Mu Xiangdong was holding his breath, the old man next to him interrupted and helped Mu Xiangdong explain.
Hearing the old and powerless voice of the old man, Cheng Yao found that there was a third person standing here.
"So that's it. I misunderstood you. I'm sorry."
Cheng Yao apologized awkwardly.
Of course, Mu Xiangdong is not a stingy person, and he was not angry with Cheng Yao.
"What a humiliating mother-in-law."
Mu Xiangdong rubbed his face and said with a smile.
"You..."
Cheng Yao was defeated by this sentence again and blushed with anger.
"Haha... Our village hasn't had such youthful vitality for a long time."
The old man smiled with a beard.
"Oh, I forgot to introduce it. This is Uncle Chen."
Mu Xiangdong introduced it to Cheng Yao.
"Chen Tianqi is the owner of this village."
Cheng Yao made a bow.
Chen Bo was more than 80 years old, with silver-white hair, concave and obvious wrinkles on his face, and a very thick and long white beard. Ju Lou looked particularly short. There is also a lantern in his hand. Although he is old, he can still see that he is a highly valued old man.
"Old man, do you dare to ask what happened in this village? Why is there no one, and the house is in disrepair for a long time.
Cheng Yao couldn't help asking,
"Hey... It's a long story, girl, it's getting late. Why don't you go to the humble house first? I'll talk to you slowly. What do you think?"
Cheng Yao and Mu Xiangdong nodded in agreement.
The old man led the way, followed by Cheng Yao and Mu Xiangdong.
"Why don't you call me?"
Cheng Yao complained, but her voice was very low.
"I also found out later that you had gone far away." Mu Xiangdong explained to Cheng Yao, "You didn't know just now. I was so scared that I almost peed my pants."
Puqi......
Cheng Yao couldn't help laughing.
"What's wrong? Usually, demons and monsters don't see you show fear, which scares you to death?
After listening to this, Mu Xiangdong said even more vigorously: "You don't know. Just now, I kept apologizing to you. Suddenly, someone patted me on the shoulder behind my back. I suddenly felt a coldness on my back. I was still wondering if I would encounter anything dirty. Looking back, I was scared to death, with a red and glowing face. Deep eyes, old faces, and a beard, I shouted out. Later, when I fixed my eyes, I knew that it was the old man with a lantern, and the light shone on his face that there was the horrible scene just now.
"Haha... This vivid and interesting description of Mu Xiangdong amused Cheng Yao.
"Ha ha... young man, did you just scare you?" The old man turned around and said to Mu Xiangdong.
"Nah... I was just teasing her. If this can scare me, then I'm still fooling around in this world.
Mu Xiangdong was busy interrupting, afraid that the old man would misunderstand and say that these were originally teasing Cheng Yao.
"You're kidding me again." Cheng Yao punched him as she spoke, but it was just a joke.
"At this time, there is a cold house ahead." The old man pointed to the house in front and said.
That house is not new to other uninhabited houses, just see that the roof will not leak.
However, this is really a great blessing for Mu Xiangdong and Cheng Yao, who have slept in the barren mountains and forests for several nights.
The old man opened the locked door with the lamp and took them in.
The room is very simple. Except for a stove that can barely cook, a table without a table leg, with some bowls and chopsticks on it, there is nothing left.
The old man lit a fire and the room became brighter.
"Wow, there is the warmth of home."
Mu Xiangdong is secretly happy. He hasn't had this feeling for a long time.
"Auncle Chen, do you live alone?"
Cheng Yao looked around and walked around the house.
"Well... I'm the only one." The old man walked into the inner room and continued, "Girl, if you live here tonight, the young man will sleep in the room outside with the contemper, can you?"
As he spoke, the old man took the bedding and made a bed in the room outside.
"Well..." Cheng Yao wanted to ask something, but when she saw the old man's staggering footsteps, she swallowed the words she wanted to say back into her stomach.
Mu Xiangdong also coughed a few times and motioned not to ask any more questions.
Yes, people with bright eyes know that only the old man lives in this room. As for why they don't see his children, they don't have to think about it. Either they are dead or abandoned him. No matter what the situation is, it must be an unbearable past for the old man. Why make this old man sad again? ne.
Cheng Yao and Mu Xiangdong saw that the old man was busy with the two of them, so they quickly went to help.
"Oh, look, I forgot... Compared with you two, you haven't used a meal yet, right? It's really not good to be treated. This person is easy to be confused when he is old. After coming back for so long, he still makes you hungry.
With that, the old man walked to the stove.
Seeing this, Cheng Yao quickly stopped the old man and said, " Uncle Chen, you can rest tonight. I'll do it. You probably haven't eaten it yet."
Cheng Yao took a look and found that the bowls and chopsticks on the table did not look like they had just been eaten or washed.
"How can this be so embarrassing? I should have come here all the way. This can't be done.
The old man insisted on coming by himself.
"Hey, Uncle Chen, just take a rest. We are strong, and this is not a big deal."
Mu Xiangdong, who stood aside, also hurried to persuade him.
"That's all, let me enjoy this family pleasure."
The old man no longer refused and looked at Mu Xiangdong with a smile.
After Mu Xiangdong helped the old man sit down, he came over to help Cheng Yao.
"Hey, can you really cook?"
Mu Xiangdong asked in a bad way.
Cheng Yao stared at him fiercely and said, "I made delicious food, but I don't have your share. Humph."
"Wow, don't mind, big sister, it was all my fault before. No matter how big my fault is, it can't make me hungry. What a sin?"
Mu Xiangdong Laipi's top road.
Cheng Yao opened the rice jar, and there was not a lot of rice in it, so she washed it a little. Mu Xiangdong saw that there was little firewood in the kitchen and got up to go out to pick up some. " Uncle Chen, I'll go nearby to pick up some firewood."
"No!" The old man hurriedly got up and stopped Mu Xiangdong. His tone was very strong, "Well, I mean... It's also dark outside and I can't see anything. Is it not too late to wait until tomorrow during the day?"
Mu Xiangdong saw the old man shaking all over. Although he didn't know the reason, he didn't go out after all.
"Come on, delicious rice."
I only saw Cheng Yao serve the cooked food, which was very fragrant.
Mu Xiangdong helped the old man to the dining table.
The table is very old and lacks a table leg. It is leaning against the wall and barely supported with two wooden sticks.
The three of them just sat down and were about to pick up their chopsticks when there was some movement outside.
Mu Xiangdong hurriedly got up and wanted to open the door to see what was going on, but he was pulled by the old man. The old man motioned the two of them not to make a sound and hurried over and tied the door tightly.
Trembling all over.
