The smile that appeared naturally on the corners of Bai Fanlu's lips because of the children was difficult to maintain for a second before collapsing.
He took a decisive step and went to the backyard.
The herdsman uncle has already stacked the firewood in the shed, and he temporarily placed the bamboo basket containing the chicks on a high place to keep the children out of reach. The chick inside was probably quite frightened, and the bamboo basket shook visibly with the naked eye. Fortunately, the uncle took it down after a while.
"Let's just see, we don't catch them."
The little girl named Yinyin begged, and the other children nodded vigorously, with their fingers on their lips, look at me and look at you, "Shh..."
It is estimated that the herdsman uncle thinks they are too noisy, and has already been told, so they make an absolutely quiet statement, they are really weird children.
Bai Fanlu was in a better mood again, he didn't think about the person outside, and went to watch the chicken cubs with them.
The chattering yellow dumplings are yellow and fluffy, four or five of them are huddled together, and their small red mouths are screaming, which is really quite pleasing.
Bai Fanlu squatted there watching for a while, then walked around to the kitchen through the back door to see if anyone needed help.
Aunt Zhang was busy working in front of the stove. Although there was a chimney, there was still heavy oily smoke here. Seeing her carrying the baby on her back, Bai Fanlu proposed to take care of her for a while, and Aunt Zhang naturally agreed.
Bai Fanlu hugged the baby and sat by the window, where the air could be better, while shaking and coaxing him, he talked to Aunt Zhang.
"I used to cook and put it on the bed. I rolled down once the day before yesterday. After crying for a long time, I didn't dare to let it go... Those children outside are so skinny every day, I dare not let them see it, and the two old ones can't manage I can't take care of myself."
"Hey... just this little baby has no father, no mother, and no milk to drink. It's pitiful. I don't want to wrong him anymore, so I just carry it all day long. Be more at ease, and he is also happy that I carry it."
Hearing Aunt Zhang's chatter, Bai Fanlu thought to himself that he should buy a cradle, there should be one in a town farther away, after all, it's not a problem, especially the kitchen is smoky, which is not good for children.
When he was thinking this way, Aunt Zhang had already called the noisy children outside to serve the food. He originally stayed with the herdsman uncle, but he came only after eating, put the chicken cubs in place, and left.
Bai Fanlu actually wanted to leave with an excuse, but just as he was thinking about bringing it up, Yinyin hurried to the kitchen, "Why did brother Xiaoliu suddenly disappear! I can't find him anywhere!"
Yinyin said, grabbing Bai Fanlu's hand and dragging him out, "Brother Lu Fan, help me find it, where can he go? We agreed to play with us for a few more days!"
"..." Bai Fanlu didn't really want to move, and was dragged out slowly by her.
Another boy panicked at this moment, "I heard from uncle that there are a lot of monsters recently, brother Xiao Liu was captured by monsters, right?"
Bai Fanlu's heart skipped a beat. Just as he was about to take action, he wondered, how could such a capable person be captured by monsters? It's not bad if he doesn't catch monsters.
But in the end, I still went to the yard to check it. There was no trace of fighting or demonic energy left, so I should have left by myself.
Very good, fairly sensible.
At the unanimous request of the children, Bai Fanlu pretended to wander around the house, but naturally he couldn't find the person they wanted.
But in order not to disappoint them, Bai Fanlu had to give a white lie, "I found Xiao Liu, and he said that there is something urgent, but he will come back tomorrow, don't worry."
Anyway, from what Yinyin said just now, Yun Zhan planned to stay here for a few more days, and he only stayed here for one night before leaving, so they can be perfectly staggered.
It is estimated that Yun Zhan thought the same way. In fact, he was the one who was deceived. He was such a righteous person before, but now he has become cowardly, and he dare not even face him. Should it be said that he has a guilty conscience
Bai Fanlu laughed in his heart, but in fact he was a little dissatisfied. This guy, he ignored him, but he didn't even apologize? hateful!
But if he really apologized, wouldn't he be able to respond with "It's okay"
Hey, what's the matter with being entangled in these messy things, I've decided to ignore him a long time ago, let's do whatever I want.
In this short period of time, Bai Fanlu's mind has been turned a thousand times. The state of mind went from being acquainted with this person at the beginning to being abhorrent to this person later, and I didn't even notice the inconsistency.
And his obviously flawed rhetoric finally made it passable to coax these children, and they were all happy again soon.
Before it was completely dark, I set up a few stools as tables in the courtyard, and everyone sat on the floor, some fried wild vegetables, the most extravagant addition to eggs, and specially steamed buckwheat buns for guests. Simple tea and light meals are not even considered, but the old people and children eat very deliciously.
And today there is an extra meal, baked sweet potatoes. Bai Fanlu didn't know where the small iron bucket used as an oven came from, after all, someone had a lot of ways.
But when it comes to someone, I have to say that the atmosphere is not the same when someone is there or not. The main reason is that there are fewer people talking.
Although it is said that there is no food, no sleep, no words, but in this situation of a large number of people, there is a core activist, even if other people will only follow suit, it will be very "dinner".
Bai Fanlu's food was tasteless, and he simply attributed it to the fact that he ate well at Shen Lanshan's place, and the contrast was too strong.
But actually looking at the gray buns in his hand, he couldn’t help thinking back to the days when the house was built before, when everyone sat in random places among the messy wood piles, and most of the time, one bun per person was enough for three meals a day .
There are still a few times when you can have the so-called "Xiao Liu's secret barbecue" to eat, but no matter whether there is meat or not, those coarse grain buns will not be as dry and hard to swallow as they are today, but they will always be eaten without knowing it. I even kind of want to have another one.
And that noisy guy, seeing his unfinished and embarrassed expression, would sneak over and deliberately hand him the bun that he had bitten down to a tiny bit.
"Here, just this one bite, this one person, do you want it?"
"don't want!"
"Hey, I'm so sad..."
Brother, in the future... I may really be sad... What should I do
The words that suddenly rang in his mind shocked Bai Fanlu, a mouthful of dry dough was stuck in his throat, and he almost couldn't get up.
He covered his mouth, choked and waved his hands to the crowd, rushed to the kitchen water tank, scooped up a large spoonful of water and poured it down. Then he recovered his breath and stood on the edge of the water tank, still in shock.
The sound just now...
It's like this again... It's the same as what I heard last time. Why does this first-person monologue sound so much like that person's heartfelt voice
Why would he be able to hear it
The water in the water tank gradually returned to calm. The kitchen was dimly lit, and the water tank was completely dark. Bai Fanlu was staring at the water surface in a daze. Suddenly, he noticed a purple light flashing on his forehead for a moment.
He raised his hand to touch his forehead, felt the presence of ice cream, and remembered what he had told him at the place where the master touched that day.
"Mo'er, remember not to take off this ice thread, but if you are in a critical situation, taking it off can greatly increase your strength, but at the same time your identity will be exposed. If it does, I will kill you if I see you." people, don't let anyone threaten you."
Since waking up, Bai Fanlu has actually never seen his current appearance through anything, and he has never paid attention to this matter. Now he got up, touched the water surface with his fingers, and circles of halos spread out in the water tank , the shadow of a person gradually reflected inside.
It seemed to be his own face, nothing special, he was a little strange, what did the junior brother and Shen Lanshan mean that day? he's changed? What changed
"Brother Lu Fan! How are you doing?"
Someone was calling, and Bai Fanlu realized that the delay was a bit too long, so he replied, tidied up his wet clothes during irrigation, and went out.
That night, Bai Fanlu was resting on the haystack outside the house. He could have slept in the house. The house has three rooms, but it's not peaceful recently, so it's safer to keep watch outside.
Bai Fanlu didn't fall asleep all the time, he hadn't experienced this kind of insomnia feeling for a long time, but for some reason this night, he couldn't think of anything, but just tossed and turned.
He closed his eyes, and he didn't know how long it had passed. He felt light seeping through his eyelids, and thought, is it morning so soon
But when he opened his eyes, he saw that there seemed to be a flame soaring into the sky in the southeast corner of the distance, illuminating half of the dark sky, he jumped up in shock, and flew towards that direction.
He remembered that it was a small settlement, with about a few families, and it was the most densely populated place at the northern foot of Ercang Mountain.
From a distance, one can already see the ferocity of the fire. It seems that there is more than one fire point. Those houses are all on fire. The huge fire dragon is connected together with the howling mountain wind, and it is about to spread into the dark forest.
Bai Fanlu was shocked. Thoughts flashed through his mind before it passed. The fire has burned like this, and there is no water source nearby. Water spirits are completely useless against such a fire...
The top priority is not to put out the fire, but to save the people inside first!
He was about to rush over when he suddenly heard voices in the hidden place below.
"Let's go, a fire that big must be dead, no one will know..."
"Don't worry, look again, the master said to be safe, don't run away, it will only cause trouble..."
With a thought in his heart, Bai Fanlu protected his body with the water spirit technique, flew up from the top of the tree and jumped into the fire.
"Ah! Brother! Someone just entered!"
Bai Fanlu heard someone from the two shout.
The surrounding flames were extremely hot, and Bai Fanlu searched from one house to another. Unfortunately, the fire had been burning for too long, and all the houses were burned to the ground.
Bai Fanlu quickly passed over the flames, waved away the collapsed beams, endured the scorching smell and billowing smoke in the air, suppressed the extreme discomfort in his heart for those tragic death scenes, and did not give up to explore everyone inside interest.
The more he explored, the more hopeless he became. Bai Fanlu finally gave up these places and went directly to the farthest house. The fire should have started a little later. It didn't burn completely.
Bai Fanlu rushed directly into the window, and sure enough, there were two people lying beside the window, a man and a woman. There were no obvious signs of burns on their bodies, but there was a pulse, which should be caused by smoke poisoning not long ago.
Before it was too late, he lifted the two with all his strength and flew out of the window. But as soon as it landed, there was a sound of fire behind him, and a heat wave rushed out, and the house was instantly submerged in a big fireball.
So soon to make up the knife
Bai Fanlu's heart shuddered, and he quickly put a bamboo hat over his head with his hands.
"Who dares to do bad things?"
"Report your name!"
It was the two men who spoke just now. Through the gauze hat, Bai Fanlu saw that the two men were both wearing thick coir raincoats, and he immediately guessed their identities.
In the novel, the disciples of Shuobei Gate located in the north, because Xianmen is located in an extremely cold place, are wearing special clothes made of reed grass, which look like straw rain capes, so Shuobei Gate is also called Shuobei Gate. Cloak door.
"Seeing that you two are also cultivators, how did you commit such murder and arson?" Bai Fanlu asked coldly.
The two looked at each other, and one of them said, "Since you saw it, I'm sorry, I will kill you today!"
After speaking, the two stabbed at Bai Fanlu with their long swords at the same time. Bai Fanlu turned sideways slightly, as if he didn't care at all. When he turned his wrist, a whirlwind was born from his palm.
Seeing that Bai Fanlu didn't move, those two people thought he was frightened and stupid, and even sneered, but they didn't finish laughing, their swords were just three points away from Bai Fanlu's side, when they were sucked by a strange force , can't be plugged in and can't be pulled out.
Then Bai Fanlu retracted his five fingers, only to hear a clang, and the two swords broke at the same time, falling like dead leaves in front of the three of them.
"you!"
The two Shuobeimen disciples exclaimed in amazement, seeing those broken swords suddenly fly out of thin air, like countless silver darts, and bounce back towards them.
All this happened too fast and too unimaginable, the two of them were not in a hurry to dodge, and they were hit by these silver darts, but they didn't sink into the flesh, but were overturned through a layer of spiritual power, and they flew out.
bang bang! bang bang!
In a blink of an eye, I saw that the two people were nailed to the trunk of the tree, going up and down, unable to move.
And those two coir raincoats were already torn to pieces.
