Chapter 433: The Wolf and the Sheep

Tian Xian was still bubbling with the heat of the flames, and looked at the people around him in some astonishment, and then looked up again, only to find that this side of the mountain peak was much more neat than the back, and it was obviously rested, and the open space on this side of the mountain was long and flat, and there were many houses.

This is clearly a village.

"Highlanders!!"

Tian Xian saw an old man not far from him embroidered a strange pattern on his clothes, which was exactly the same as the pattern on the robe that Xiang was wearing.

This made Tian Xian overjoyed, but in the next second, a roar of anger came from the air, and the short warrior swooped down from the mountain peak like a tiger.

Tian Xian was stunned, and he was about to meet the enemy, when an old but powerful voice sounded at this time.

"Ke Mu, stop!"

The short warrior reacted quickly, rolled in the air, jumped over the sky and landed steadily in the distance, but as soon as he landed, he immediately turned around, staring at Tian Xian with a wary face.

Without waiting for the old man to speak again, everyone in the village immediately took action, and among the crowds of people, they immediately surrounded Tianxian in a group.

"Wait! I'm not an enemy!" Tian Xian immediately shouted.

But this kind of words did not even make the eyes of the others move a moment, and all the weapons of the highlanders were aimed at Tianxian and ready to move at any time.

Tianxian is a little anxious, now it is useless to report his home, the patriarch of the Thundermark tribe actually ordered to expel himself, which is a big surprise, and now he is surrounded by highlanders, which is even more troublesome, and it is probably impossible to get out calmly.

However, Tian Xian found himself surrounded, but no one moved, apparently waiting for someone's order.

Quickly scanning the surroundings, Tian Xian quickly found the target after the gap in the crowd - it was the old man who was not far away just now.

Tian Xian remembers that Xiang said that in her village there was a respected old man who presided over everything. It seems that he is undoubtedly it!

Seeing clearly that the old man seemed to be thinking something, he frowned and seemed to hesitate.

Tianxian immediately shouted: "I'm Xiang's friend!!"

The effect of this sentence was immediate, and the old man was obviously a little surprised, and the surrounding highlanders also showed surprise.

In fact, Tianxian is just a gamble, this mountain range is so big. Even if Xiang was born here, she may not be a person from this village, and not everyone may know her, but seeing the other party's reaction, Tianxian knew that he was unlucky, and at the same time, he was also a little lucky!

"I don't have any ill intentions, I'm Xiang's friend!" Tian Xian said quickly, gesturing with his hand, "It's the one who is tall." Girl with long black hair, oh yes! she's got a flashblade!"

At this moment, all expressions showed obvious consternation, and everyone's eyes couldn't help but look back, as if asking for the old man's opinion.

"Elder, he's idle!" suddenly a voice came out at this time.

Suddenly, everyone was taken aback again, and turned their heads to face Tianxian's gaze with a little more hostility.

Tianxian's nose was almost crooked, and it was the short warrior just now, Ke Mu, who spoke.

"I was indeed that day idle. But it was a misunderstanding for Patriarch Thundermark to expel me! I am your friend, and I still have a handwritten letter from Xiang. You ......"

Tianxian hurriedly touched the letter that Chu Xiang specially wrote for himself, saying that if he was misunderstood by the highlanders after arriving in the highlands, he could use this letter to prove himself.

But Tian Xian touched it back, and only touched his buttocks......

Tianxian's face was slightly red...... There was something wrong when I landed, and now I was almost burned half-nakedβ€”so many staring at myself, but I was looked at.

"That...... Apparently burned. Tian Xian laughed twice, and hurriedly covered his shame with tattered clothes. Fortunately, there are some pieces of cloth left on my body.

The old man who was called an elder by Ke Mu looked at Tianxian with a slightly strange gaze, "Everyone back away, don't disturb your friends, the patriarch just said expell, let's not be rude." ”

Tianxian was happy in his heart. It's still the old man who is sensible.

The highland warriors who surrounded Tianxian retreated, and the encirclement became much larger, and the old man walked up slowly, stood in front of everyone without fear, and looked at Tianxian again, "Young man, you said you are a friend of Xiang?"

"Yes!" Tian Xian replied unusually loudly, "She was used by bad people on the border of the Longyuan Empire, and I saved her." ”

"You saved her?" the old man frowned.

"Uh...... Just helping by the way. Remembering the first time she saw Xiang, Tian Xian felt a little funny, "But she said that the children of the Highlands know how to repay their kindness and must not leave all of them, so now they will act with me for the time being and help me." ”

"Ohβ€”" the old man stroked his beard and nodded, "the incense is good, and the children of the Highlands should do that." ”

Seeing the old man praising Xiang, and then thinking about Xiang's extremely serious personality, Tian Xian couldn't help but smile bitterly, if the highlanders were like this, it would be very troublesome......

"So......" asked the old man, "where is the incense?"

"She is still on the border of the Longyuan Empire and is helping me build a piece of land, thanks to her and her Flash Wave Knife, otherwise the problem of water source is really difficult to solve. ”

When the old man heard that Xiang hadn't returned, he seemed to sigh out, "So, Xiang has adapted well to life in the human continent and found something to do, right?"

"That's not bad to say. "But she seems to have something to do, and now she stays with me, only for the time being, and I think she may have to leave when my place is finished." ”

"Hmm...... That's right. The old man smiled, "Is that what Xiang said to you?"

"She didn't say anything, and I knew she wasn't going to stay here for long, and she would definitely leave in the future. ”

"Hmm...... It's very good, worthy of being a highland child, and the incense is very good. The old man nodded with satisfaction, "Then young man, why did you suddenly come to our village?"

"I'd like to inquire about the details of incense. ”

"Oh?" the old man was a little surprised, "you want to find out about the incense? What does this mean?"

"I feel that she is carrying a very heavy load, her personality is greatly suppressed, to be honest, what I am doing at the moment is more dangerous, Xiang's character is very serious, and she will drill the horns. I was a little worried that if she continued like this, she might be irreparably hurt by the heavy faith in her heart to take care of reciprocating me and her, and I could feel that Xiang was not a person who cherished her life, she cared about mission and glory. ”

The old man looked at the sky in silence for a moment, and suddenly laughed. "It turned out that I underestimated Xiang, I thought that such a clumsy child would suffer a lot in the human continent and run into walls everywhere, but I didn't expect that she had just left not long ago, and she made good friends who cared about her. ”

Tian Xian was not embarrassed by such words, nodded and said: "We are indeed good friends, so I don't want her to live in heavy depression, and her temperament is too serious, so far she has planned to apologize for death because of a few unimportant things." If I hadn't stopped her, she would have been a dead body, which is one of the main reasons I'm here. ”

The old man frowned deeply, "That's the case...... Sure enough, it's still too hard for her, hey......"

Sighing, the old man turned to the side, "Come, guests from afar, come and sit in the village of our source water tribe." We Highlanders welcome every friend. ”

"Elder, this ......"

"The patriarch said. I'm going to expel him!"

"Even if it's a friend of incense......"

The highland warriors who surrounded Tianxian suddenly showed surprise on their faces, and the sound of resistance immediately sounded.

"It doesn't matter. The old man didn't care, "The patriarch did say that he would be expelled, but he didn't say that he would be expelled as soon as he saw it, and we would expel it after we finished talking." ”

When the people heard this, they couldn't laugh or cry, how could they say that? This was clearly disobeying the patriarch's order. But the elder spoke. The others were not easy to object, so they had to let a way out.

Tianxian was overjoyed, "Old man, please forgive me for taking the liberty of being bothered, I am Tianxian from the Fire Misty Mountain." Don't know what you call it?"

The old man smiled, "It's okay to call it whatever you want, there are not so many rules here, I am the elder here, and I am also the village head, and I am also the big boss, haha! It doesn't matter what you call it, that little girl called me 'old man' when she was a child." ”

Tianxian couldn't imagine that Xiang's such a rigid and serious personality would actually call people 'old man'.

Although it is really rude to dress up now, Tian Xian is still polite, "Tian Xian takes the liberty of disturbing, don't be surprised, elders." ”

The elder laughed twice, "It's okay, come on! It's been a long time since the Yuanshui tribe has been a guest from a foreign race." ”

Although the other clansmen were a little worried, the elder didn't seem to be worried at all, and took the initiative to welcome Tian Xian into the elder's house in the village, which made Tian Xian a little embarrassed that the elder immediately asked someone to take the clothes that fit at first sight and put them on for Tian Xian, so as not to continue to have his bare buttocks.

Obviously, the elder was very concerned about Xiang's situation, sat down in the big house, and asked about Xiang's condition as soon as he opened his mouth, and Tianxian also knew everything, and told Xiang's current situation as it was, of course, about what Xiang was doing now, it was just a brief introduction, after all, this involved the secrets in the Shalit Desert.

The elder listened very carefully, and from time to time he would ask one or two other questions, and Tianxian would answer them one by one.

What surprised Tianxian a little was that the elder asked in detail, even what kind of hairstyle Xiang combs every day, and even what color the hairband is.

I felt strange in my heart, but Tian Xian still answered them one by one.

Anyway, the condition of incense is easy to explain, simply put, eat, sleep.

Although incense is not eaten and slept, but compared with the momentum of the wind and clouds when eating and the peculiar ability to fall asleep and wake up at any time, incense's expression in other times is usually not so deeply remembered.

It took a full hour, and Tian Xian finally finished talking about the situation of the incense, the elder narrowed his eyes, lowered his head and pondered for a while, and then nodded slightly, "Okay...... Very good. ”

"Elder, is there anything else you want to ask?" Tian Xian was afraid that this old man would remember something to ask for a while, and then it would be dark, so it would be better to break his idea earlier......

The elder smiled, "The young man must be impatient with the old man, I ask the east and the west, right?"

"Don't dare. ”

"Don't be surprised, after all, we highlanders rarely move around the human continent, incense is a special case, we are actually very worried, you know her news, naturally I asked more. ”

"Of course. ”

"And......" the elder's eyebrows moved, "I must confirm that too." Where is Xiang at the moment, and what is the real situation? ”

Tianxian was slightly stunned, and looked at the elder with some puzzlement.

"Young man, don't blame me for not trusting you, but the human race on the human continent is really terrifying, and deception and lies are rampant. We had to be careful. ”

Tian Xian was dumbfounded, it turned out that he asked so many questions, not only to understand Xiang's current situation, but more importantly, to determine whether what he said was true?

The elder nodded and said, "From your words, I am now basically sure that Xiang is indeed doing things for you on the border of the Longyuan Empire as you said, hehe...... She has a particularly clumsy personality, and I'm actually really worried about her, if it weren't for the lack of the right person. I really won't let her go to the human continent alone. ”

Seeing that Tianxian was still a little stunned, the elder laughed, "Young man, we highlanders have many habits of life that you don't know, Xiang's personality is as you say, very serious, and her dress is regular, which is the main reason why I asked you those questions." If she hadn't lived her life according to her own will, then she wouldn't have dressed up like this. Do you understand?"

Tianxian didn't understand it at all, and the impression of Xiang's dress was the same, with a men's cloak and a long shirt, and long black hair that was simply tied behind him, and it seemed that the style of the shoes had not changed......

In this regard, Tianxian has no choice but to giggle now......

A smile appeared on the Elder's face. seemed to be very happy, "After Xiang left, we were all very worried, but we and the human continent did not communicate with each other, and we don't know what happened to her." Now that we know that she has lived well in the human continent, we are relieved. ”

As he spoke, the elder stood up, "Young man, stay today, we will treat you in place of incense, you are a friend of our Yuanshui tribe, we will not be stingy with our friends." ”

Tian Xian was stunned, "Elder, it's easy to talk about hospitality, but if you finish asking your question, isn't it ......?"

The elder smiled meaningfully, "Young man, do you want to ask Xiang why he left the highlands and why he went to the Human Continent?"

"Exactly!" Tian Xian immediately lifted his spirits.

"Hmm......" The elder shook his head, "I'm sorry, but I'm afraid I can't tell you about these things, because it involves some secrets of our highland clan, and it is also because of these extremely secret things that we have to let Xiang go to the human continent alone and with the flash wave knife, the real reason for this matter, even many clansmen are not clear, young man, if you want to know this, I can only say sorry." ”

Tianxian couldn't help but froze, he fell down, and as a result, he was chased naked for two peaks, and finally was asked by an old man to change the sky, and finally ...... Nothing was found.

"Don't you believe I'm really Xiang's friend?"

"No, I didn't think so. The elder shook his head slowly, "And I don't really care about this matter, because whether you are a good friend of Xiang or not, I can't tell you about these things." ”

This old man is inevitably too unkind, and he is secretly annoyed.

"I'm sorry, young man, but please forgive us, we have no choice but to suffer. After speaking, the elder no longer gave Tian Xian a chance to speak, and directly waved his hand to call a highland warrior, who was the Ke Mu who was chasing Tian Xian running naked all over the mountains just now.

"Take the guests to an empty room to rest. ”

The master said so, and Tianxian naturally couldn't continue to be reluctant, so he had to say goodbye to the elder, and Ke Mu led him out of the big house and walked towards the edge of the village.

Obviously, the elder didn't plan to tell Tianxian about the specific situation of Xiang, which made Tianxian very depressed, you must know that this is Xiang's hometown, and it is not okay to come to Hu, but the elder is too unsympathetic, and he actually refused to reveal a word, which almost cut off all the paths for information.

"I heard outside, Xiang is helping you with errands?"

Tianxian's guest room was on the outskirts of the village, and Tianxian, who had stopped in front of a house, suddenly heard Ke Mu ask abruptly.

"Yes, everything I said to the elder is true, is there any problem?" Tian Xian looked strangely at Ke Mu, who was leading the way for him.

"That, that...... Is she okay then?" Ke Mu's eyes suddenly dodged a little, and his voice weakened, how could he still have the confidence when he was chasing and killing Tian Xian before.

Tianxian couldn't help but glance at Ke Mu a few times at once, and immediately smiled knowingly, this kid looks about the same age as Xiang. Maybe two years older than Xiang, look at his squirming and pinching, hehe...... It's definitely interesting for incense, right?

"Do you like incense?" asked Tian Xian with malicious intentions.

Ke Mu's face inflated like a balloon, and it became fiery red, "I...... I, of course I don't. I...... Of course not, how could I, someone like me ......"

It's just that you don't admit yourself, and you can't even speak clearly......

Tian Xian looked at Ke Mu, who was hesitant, and suddenly had a deeper understanding of the highlanders, this Ke Mu looked like he was in his early twenties, and he was already a quite experienced warrior when he looked at his skillful movements and accurate judgment in the previous battle, but when it came to incense. The seasoned warrior had a look of panic in his eyes......

It was a look of embarrassment that could only be expressed with a simple temperament, pure without a trace of artificiality, which made people want to laugh when they saw it, but they couldn't bear it -- it is estimated that there would be no such expression on the human continent.

"She's fine, she's very healthy, she's very energetic!" Tian Xian put away his smile, replied seriously, thought about it and added. "You can eat four people in one meal. ”

Ke Mu couldn't help but laugh embarrassedly when he heard the last sentence. "Incense...... I'm sorry she's always been like this, but although she eats a little more, she ...... But a good girl, eh...... So...... So ......"

Tian Xian couldn't be more awkward when he heard this, how simple this innocent little guy is. Xiang ate food for four people, and he actually practiced and apologized......

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in Tianxian's mind!

"Ke Mu, you know Xiang very well?" Although Tian Xian is at least seven or eight years younger than Ke Mu, Tian Xian is tall and strong, but Ke Mu is a short man. Putting his hand on his shoulder, Tian Xian laughed.

The expression on Ke Mu's face was as happy and shy as if he missed his lover, "We...... We've known each other since we were kids and grew up together!

Oh my God! Childhood sweetheart's little friend! Tianxian's eyes widened suddenly, this guy must not let go!

Showing a smile that is absolutely harmless to humans and animals, and seeing flowers blooming, Tian Xian asked mysteriously: "Ke Mu, do you want to know more about incense." ”

If a person with normal suspicion sees someone who smiles so maliciously at him and asks such an obviously seductive question, he will immediately become suspicious.

But Kemu was not that kind of person, "Yes!" he replied more simply than anyone else.

Tianxian's eyes were shining, as if he had seen a delicious little sheep, "Ah...... Speaking of which, I seem to have heard Xiang mention that he has friends in the clan or something......"

"Really!" Ke Mu suddenly became excited.

Tian Xian felt a little guilty, Xiang did mention it, but it was not Ke Mu who didn't know, and then, Tian Xian immediately threw this little guilt out of the clouds, "Of course! She also said that she would often miss the people in her hometown, and this mountain ......."

"Yes...... She misses ...... a lot."

"Well, yes, yes, because she is often anxious, after all, she has an important mission on her body, and she does not dare to be careless at any time. ”

Ke Mu looked helpless, "Is it? Xiang must be worried from time to time outside, it's all because I'm not angry! Otherwise, I can complete this mission for her." ”

Tianxian's heart lit up, and he immediately understood why Ke Mu understood why Xiang left the highland.

"Okay, don't be sad, let's go in and say, if you have anything to say, tell me, and I can tell Xiang when I go back." Tian Xian very enthusiastically pushed the dead wood into the hut.

Soon, Tian Xian led the topic to the matter of Xiang leaving the highlands.

"Xiang was chosen...... Ke Mu looked frustrated, as if Xiang's departure was a blow to him, "At that time, the silver water spirit chose her, and she has never changed the candidate since." ”

The fragrance was chosen by the silver water spirit!? A question mark popped up in Tianxian's heart.

"Only those who are chosen by the silver water spirit can leave, but it's a pity that ......" Ke Mu couldn't help shaking his head, very sad, "It's a pity that I don't even know what Xiang is going to do now, so I can only sigh here......"

Tianxian was stunned for a moment, it turned out that Ke Mu didn't know what Xiang was going to do, only how she left.

In this case......

Ask the elders, this is definitely not possible, then people who are still related to this matter and know the inside story......

Tian Xian rolled his eyes, as if there was a guy who might know the inside story, but was not human...... (To be continued......)
