Chapter 223: Peeling Incense Thief
Tuoba Xiu nodded, and bowed his hand to Qiu Huaici and Shangguan Li'er, and said with a smile: "My surname is Tuoba Tuoba, and my single name is a Xiu character;
Qiu Huaici nodded and said with a smile: "My surname is Qiu, this is my eldest apprentice Shangguan Lian'er, the second apprentice Nanjiao, and the third apprentice Bao'er; ”
Tuoba Xiu glanced at Mimi, nodded and asked with a smile: "Brother Qiu, take the liberty of asking, where are you going?"
Qiu Huaici said: "We offended people in the Zhongzhou Divine Domain and were chased and killed by the enemy, I came here to avoid trouble, we want to find a warm place to live in Beiyuan for a long time!"
Tuoba Xiu nodded, and said: "So that's the case, the climate in Beiyuan is dry and cold, changeable, we northerners grew up in Si, accustomed to it, I heard that your Zhongzhou Divine Domain is lush in all seasons, warm as spring, you suddenly came here, you may be a little uncomfortable for a while, so you will think about finding a warm place to settle down;
Yun Shu'er asked: "It has been recorded in the "Kuotian Chronicles" that in your Beiyuan Realm, there used to be a Saiwai Jiangnan River, have you ever heard of this place?"
Tuoba Xiu shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it, but you can't go any further, either go back the way you come or take a different route." ”
Qiu Huaici asked, "Why?"
Tuoba Xiu hesitated for a moment and said: "Brother Qiu, you don't know, the vast place in front of you is called Slackton, and there is a group of robbers who know how to use demon methods, they are extremely ugly, but they have a strange name called 'Peeling Incense Thieves', they rob beautiful girls everywhere, refining elixirs for beauty, and they have been in trouble for a long time, your eldest apprentice is very good-looking, and he went rashly, if he is targeted by those robbers, you will be in trouble." ”
Yun Shu'er said with a smile: "You are talking nonsense, if there is really a bandit who knows demon magic in front of you, and he is very powerful, and you are also very good-looking, then why are you not afraid, but continue to move forward?"
Tuoba Xiu said with a smile: "Little sister, you just want to be in Beiyuan, you may not know the situation here, in Beiyuan, just like your Zhongzhou Divine Domain, there are evil sects that know magic, and there are also Xuanmen righteous ways who are proficient in immortal arts, and we are Xuanmen righteous ways who know some immortal arts, we rushed to Xiantun this time in order to meet with other Xuanmen colleagues and discuss the elimination of the 'incense thief' together." ”
Yun Shu'er asked, "Do you know immortal arts?"
Tuoba Xiu nodded, and pointed his finger at the small river ditch on the side of the road, and some water droplets in the small river ditch jumped out of the water like small fish, and the water droplets gathered together and condensed into a giant sword.
Tuoba Xiu's arm waved at the forest on the left, and with a whoosh, the water sword shot into the water forest, cutting off a large area of trees, and then, the water sword flew back, hovered over the small river ditch, disintegrated into water droplets, rained, and fell into the water ditch again.
Tuoba Xiu hid the smugness in his heart, and smiled lightly: "It will be a little bit!"
Yun Shu'er was stunned for a moment, and asked suspiciously: "Since you only know a little bit of spells, how can you defeat enough 'Peeling Incense Thief'?"
Little girl, you won't be an idiot, right! These methods of mine are the Mahayana way of immortal arts, I said a little bit, those are all my modest words, can't you hear it?
Tuoba Xiu said with a smile: "Little girl, of course, personal strength is limited, but there will be many of our companions in front of us, and the strength of many people is great, so that we can deal with those 'incense thieves'." ”
When Yun Shu'er saw that there was really a robber, her eyes lit up and she was extremely excited, and shouted, "Master, let's go catch the robbers too, right?"
Tuoba Xiu shook his head and smiled: "Brother Qiu, I know that you are not idle people, but if you take two children with you, if you follow us to catch the 'incense thief', I'm afraid it will be a little dangerous!"
Yun Shu'er shouted with a smile: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, my master is very capable, the first in the world, catch a few robbers, that's not a piece of cake, let's follow, it's good for you and no harm, don't make a wrong idea!"
Although Tuoba Hong had a smile on his face, he was unimpressed.
Little girl, you are young, but you love to brag, since your master's ability is the best in the world, how can you be chased by the enemy and flee for your life, and you still run to the wild land of our Beiyuan!
Mimi smiled and shouted: "Xiaoci, I'm bored to death along the way, let's go catch a few robbers and have fun, right?"
The Tuoba brothers and sisters were surprised to see that Mimi was able to speak, but she was an old deer who had attained the Tao, and they felt a lot of miracles.
Qiu Huaici smiled indifferently and asked Shangguan Li'er and Nanjiao, "What do you have an idea?"
Nanjiao hurriedly smiled and shouted, "Master, we also want to go and see the excitement?"
Shangguan Li'er also smiled and nodded.
Qiu Huaici smiled at Tuoba Xiu and said, "Tuoba girl, if you trust us, take us to see it!"
Even if Tuoba Xiu is a fool, he can also refine the Shinto from honey, Qiu Huaici's elegant temperament, and he can see that Qiu Huaici and others are really very human, and they must have extraordinary means, and Qiu Huaici is still a beautiful man, what a pleasing and joyful thing it should be to walk with such a beautiful man!
Tuoba Xiu nodded and said with a smile: "Okay then!"
Qiu Huaici smiled and nodded: "Girl, please lead the way in front!"
Tuoba Xiu naturally did not walk in front of Qiu Huaici rudely, but walked slightly back with Qiu Huaici, gossiping with Qiu Huaici.
Qiu Huaici didn't like to talk, but Yun Shu'er asked Tuoba Xiu with great interest, and she didn't stop.
Tuoba Hong saw that Shangguan Li'er was beautiful, saw the gentle demeanor of the Zhongzhou woman, and admired it, so he walked beside Shangguan Li'er and talked to Shangguan Li'er.
Shangguan Li'er was originally lively and jumpy and liked to talk, but since the Weimen door was broken and her relatives died tragically, her temperament has changed greatly and she has become calm, so her enthusiasm for Tuoba Hong rarely speaks except for polite perfunctory sentences.
In the face of Tuoba Hong's questions, in addition to smirking, Nanjiao either shook his head or nodded, like a dumb person.
Tuoba Hong had nothing to say and talked to Shangguan Li'er, seeing that Shangguan Li'er's expression had been faint, he suddenly felt bored, so he stopped talking, but peeked at Shangguan Li'er from time to time, and admired it very much.
Qiu Huaici and Tuoba Xiu walked for three days.
Along the way, the barren mountains and mountains are snow-capped, cold and damp, and people and animals are rare.
On this day,
Twilight.
At the foot of the hill ahead, there were finally some houses, and there was still smoke from one of the houses.
Yun Shu'er pointed and shouted happily: "Master, there is a village in front, there is a village in front, let's go and have a look, go and see!"
Qiu Huaici asked, "Miss Tuoba, what do you think?"
Tuoba Xiu nodded and said with a smile: "Let's go and see if there are any traces of our companions and the 'Incense Peeling Thief'." ”
Qiu Huaici and the others went to the mountain and walked into the village.
The village was empty of ten rooms, the doors and windows were broken, there was nothing inside, the corners of the beams were covered with cobwebs, and the dust and dirt were thick, revealing a desolate and eerie atmosphere.
When Yun Shu'er saw the situation in the village, she looked disappointed, tilted her head, and muttered, "Alas!
Nanjiao smiled and comforted: "Bao'er, don't be discouraged, didn't we just see the cooking smoke burning in the village? ”
Yun Shu'er came to her senses again, nodded and smiled: "Yes, Master, let's find those houses that burn with smoke, right?"
Tuoba Xiu pointed to a room on the left not far in front of him, and said with a smile: "Don't look for it, it's right in front." ”
Qiu Huaici and the others walked over, tied the horse to a jujube tree outside, and as soon as they entered the courtyard of the dilapidated house, a lot of people rushed out from the surrounding houses and outside the wall, and surrounded them tightly.
