The rough palm stroked gently, and the cold bow in the hand. Xin Huzi, who was leaning against the wall next to the kang head, still hadn't slept in the room with only a faint candle flame. A hairpin was placed on the table with a candle burning.

At this time, many wounds on Xin Huzi's body have also been smeared with wound medicine. Strips of white linen were wrapped around the wounds. Washed away the sweat and blood, and the body was no longer dirty. After changing a pair of slightly fat burlap trousers, he also replaced the cowhide strap that was taken from the wolf's head. In its place was a brand new linen scarf.

After resting in a side room in the back house of this master's house. Although it was already late at night. But he didn't feel sleepy. Even though he hadn't closed his eyes for three days, his eyes were already bloodshot. But lying on the kang, he still couldn't sleep like this.

The inexplicable irritability in his heart is still eroding his heart all the time. Especially when he thinks of Sister Erya'er and everyone in the tunzi, as well as Sister Qi'er's appearance when she died. As soon as he closed his eyes, he couldn't help but think of them who died.

The coldness in his hand relieved Xin Huzi's irritable mind slightly. Looking at the black bow he was holding in his hand, he had retrieved from the wolf's camp. Feeling the pitted touch on the cold bow, he couldn't help but be a little curious about this black bow that saved his life at a critical moment.

He had seen with his own eyes the miracle brought by this black bow when he fought to the death with the last wolf leader! The bowstring of unknown things was able to block the wolf's head, and the sharp iron blade in his hand was not damaged in the slightest. But it's really strange! And when he was strangling the bowstring of the black bow on the neck of the wolf's head. Even if the wolf leader took the opportunity, he pulled out the short knife from his waist and inserted the short knife into the bowstring that was strangled around his neck. But he still couldn't stop the fate of strangling him to death.

And the black iron short knife left by his father is very clear. Even with thick leather, the short knife can easily pierce and cut. Not to mention, he is often used by him to cut meat and debone when handling prey. But the sharpness of the short knife could not cut the bowstring, until he finally strangled the wolf leader alive under the bow.

"Buzz"

It hummed like a musical note, plucked by Xin Huzi, and echoed faintly from the strings of the black bow. Listening to the crisp buzz of the strings when they were plucked, Xin Huzi couldn't help but get up from the kang head and leaned against the wall in the next moment. Holding the bow in one hand and pulling the string in the other, he slowly pulled the big bow in his hand.

The bowstring was slowly stretched and stretched by Xin Huzi, gradually becoming tight and powerful. It wasn't until he pulled the strings to the fullest that he instantly released them and brought a burst of crisp humming sounds. After Xin Huzi released the string, he muttered to himself: "The strength of more than one stone is about the same as Daddy's big bow." But"

After Xin Huzi tried the strength of the black bow, he felt a little stranger in his heart. For him now, it is not difficult to draw a big bow with a stone of strength. Although the strength of one stone, it was still a little difficult for him. But it was precisely because of his ability to open this stone bow that he was able to use the big bow left by Daddy to kill the wolf leaders who slaughtered the tunzi and avenge the dead people in the tunzi.

is also because he is not very familiar with the big bow left by Daddy. As a result, when shooting the wolf's head with a big bow, the head is lowered. But in the end, he shot those and the wolf leaders under the arrows. It's a pity that Daddy's big bow was cut off by a knife when he slashed at himself with the long knife that came at him in order to resist the last wolf leader. He was also in a hurry to carry Sister Que'er on his back, and he did not take the big bow cut off by the long knife.

Instead, when he retrieved the short knife from the wolf leader who had strangled him, he brought back the black bow as well. And just now, when he pulled out the black bow, although the strength of this bow was about the same as Daddy's big bow. But he always felt that something was wrong, especially just now, when he was full of this unknown bowstring, there was always a strange feeling that he couldn't say what he didn't know! Also, this obviously tried the strength of one stone when the bow was full, but it was more laborious than when he was pulling Daddy's big bow, as if the strength of this bow was not as simple as only one stone

"Bang Bang Bang"

The sound of the door being gently knocked interrupted Xin Huzi, who was sitting upright on the kang, and continued to think about the strange black bow in his hand. When he heard the soft knock on the door, he didn't immediately ask who was knocking. He didn't move his body and walked off the kang. Instead, he looked at it, and there was a soft knock on the door again. But I couldn't help but feel tight in my heart. But I was thinking about whether the sound of the knock on the door was related to the request I talked to the master, whether it was the master and him

"Papapa, huzi, are you sleeping?"

"Sister Huihuiniang?"

With this knock on the door, there was also a soft inquiry from Hui Niang. Hearing that it was Sister Huiniang outside the door, Xin Huzi's tense mind couldn't help but be relieved. Immediately, he hurriedly put the black bow in his hand on the table next to the kang head, and jumped off the kang with his bare feet. He ran to the door in three or two steps, and when he opened the door, he saw that Sister Huiniang, who was still dressed in plain clothes, was standing quietly in front of the door of the house.

Xin Huzi saw that it was really Sister Huiniang standing outside the door, so he was a little puzzled and wondered: "Sister Huiniang, why are you so late and haven't slept yet?" ”

Hui Niang's beautiful and handsome face brought a faint smile: "I can't sleep, I won't come to see you." How? Isn't it okay? ”

"No, there's nothing that can't be done."

As Xin Huzi spoke, he hurriedly let Sister Huiniang, who was standing outside the house, into the house. Now in the short autumn season in the forest, the night is also very cold. Xin Huzi saw Sister Huiniang, who was thin, but she was also afraid that she would catch a cold after standing outside the house for a long time.

Xin Huzi, who let Sister Huiniang into the house, casually closed the open door. But when he closed the door, he felt a thought in his heart that something was wrong. But before he could think too much, there was a voice behind him from Sister Huiniang asking him.

"Huzi, we should have seen each other for more than a year when I got married last year, right?"

Listening to the questions coming from behind him, Xin Huzi's heart seemed to be suppressed, and some inexplicable emotions for a long time continued to pour out at this time. When he closed the door and turned around, he nodded and replied, "Yes! It's been over a year."

Xin Huzi, who turned around, looked at Sister Huiniang, but found that Sister Huiniang was already sitting next to the kang. Xin Huzi was talking, but he also slowly walked to the kang and sat down next to Sister Huiniang. But there was nothing in this room except the sleeping man's big kang and a wooden table next to the kang head.

"I heard from my father that you ate a lot of wine after you came that day. Daddy wanted to keep you at home for the night, but you still rushed back at night."

When Xin Huzi sat beside him, Hui Niang said lightly. As she spoke, her white hands gradually tightened under the cover of her long sleeves.

Xin Huzi nodded slightly, with a hint of bitterness on his face: "After I came that day, I wanted to see you again, but I didn't think about it." The rule of marrying a mother-in-law in this pass is not to let people see the bride. So I can only stand in the crowd watching the excitement with Fat Hu and Brother Dog."

"Are you eating so much because you didn't see me?"

Hui Niang, who turned her head, looked at Xin Huzi who was sitting next to her with her dark eyes and asked.

Xin Huzi still didn't look at Hui Niang, although he wanted to nod and admit it. But he remembered it again in the next moment, because he was drunk that night, he was still alone when he returned to Tunzi late, endured the cool breeze at night, and waited for his second sister to come back. But I couldn't help but feel a pain in my heart, and I wanted to nod and admit it, but it also turned into a veto at the next moment.

Seeing that Huzi shook his head and denied it, Huiniang retracted her gaze at Huzi again. Although Huzi denied it, in the days when she got married, she drank a lot of alcohol because she couldn't see herself. But she knew very well in her heart, if it weren't for Huzi's failure to see the last face of her before she got married, she wouldn't have drunk so much wine

"Are you okay when you were in Kannai?"

After a long silence, Xin Huzi spoke first and asked Sister Huiniang, who was sitting beside her. As he said this, he regretted it a little in the next moment. After all, the reason why Sister Huiniang came back now is because the person who married her out of the forest has died of illness. And he also has a kind of thought in his heart, as if it is a kind of escape, so that he doesn't want to hear Sister Huiniang, but he doesn't want to hear the things in the Guannei, and there is a very contradictory feeling in his heart, and he wants to know the psychology so that in the entanglement, he still asked, Sister Huiniang's affairs in the Guannei.

As Huzi asked, Hui Niang said calmly: "It's not good, it's not bad." When he was alive, he was very good to me, but, maybe I was here, and I was used to it. When I went to Kannai and went to Rong's house, I always remembered when I was in the woods. ”

Xin Huzi listened to Sister Huiniang's answer, but her heart couldn't help but feel a pain. From Sister Huiniang's calm words, he could also hear that it seemed that Sister Huiniang was not doing very well in Guannei

After Hui Niang finished speaking, she asked Xin Huzi, who was silent again, "Do you think where have Dan'er seen it?" ”
