075 Fire at the Chu State Inn
The moon is cold and the stars are scarce, a lonely boat is downstream, and the cold wind blows the wild grass on the cliff.
Ouyang Ying stood at the bow of the boat, her dress was blowing in the wind, whirring against her legs.
"Ying'er, why are you still thinking about today's events?" Xiaoyaozi came out of the cabin.
"No, it's just that I think of something that triggers feelings in my heart. Where's the Big Dumb Bear?"
"Xia Yun was seasick, and he took care of her in the cabin. ”
Ouyang Ying looked back at the cabin, Xiong Wei hugged Xia Yun and stroked her forehead again and again. She smiled slightly: "He's so nice to her." ”
"Don't think about it, it's windy, let's go back to the cabin and wait. Xiaoyaozi persuaded, "There are also many people who are good to you, you slowly understand." ”
"Master, you have been walking the rivers and lakes for so many years, have you ever loved someone?" Ouyang Ying suddenly said a little lightly.
With a "pluck", a fish jumped away from the bow of the boat in the water, Xiaoyaozi was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Ouyang Ying to suddenly ask this question. His heart trembled slightly, and he asked himself in his heart, is there a person?
It was a sweet smile, and it was a feeling of distress like a knife piercing the bottom of the heart.
The corners of Xiaoyaozi's mouth moved slightly and said, "Ying'er, you know that Master is an excellent killer. To be a good killer, the first thing to do is to forget your feelings. ”
"How can we be forgetful? ”
"An excellent killer can only forget who he is and become a killing tool only when he is truly forgetful. Xiaoyaozi said with a confused look in his eyes.
At this time, Xiong Wei came out of the cabin, and when he heard Xiaoyaozi say this, he couldn't help but feel confused for a while, thinking: That's why you killed my whole family.
The big stone in his heart still hasn't been put down. He wanted to stab Xiaoyaozi in the back with a sword.
Xiong Wei understands that it is not Xiaoyaozi who really sends him to hell. From the moment Xiaoyaozi rescued himself from the palace, he saw Xiaoyaozi atone for his actions.
Every time he held "Feifei" tightly, he would remember that this was his master, the benefactor who saved his fate, and the master who was like his own father.
In an instant, Xiong Wei's heart seemed to be split into two halves.
Xiong Wei took a deep breath. "Master, Ying'er, it's cold outside, you go in and rest. ”
"Okay!" Xiaoyaozi wanted to go inside.
"I don't want to go back, I want to be here for a little bit of wind. Ouyang Ying still didn't want to go back.
Xiaoyaozi walked in, gave Xiong Wei a look, and asked Xiong Wei to comfort Ouyang Ying.
"Master, I'll accompany Miss Ouyang here, you can go and rest." Xiong Wei also wanted someone to accompany him, but Xia Yun sat in the cabin and got angry and ignored herself.
"What's wrong, why don't you want to go back?" Xiong Wei stood next to Ouyang Ying and asked gently, not at all in the tone that he usually laughed with Ouyang Ying.
Ouyang Ying suddenly turned her head and said to him, "Why are you so good to Xia Yun?"
"Because she saved my life. "Xiong Wei is serious.
"But I also saved your life. ”
"You saved my life, and I can give it back to you. But Xia Yun ......" Xiong Wei looked at the cabin, and remembered that Xia Yun could use her body to help warm herself for herself, which was a big sacrifice for a girl, "Xia Yun sacrificed too much for me." ”
"What she did for you, I can too!"
"Ying'er, it's different. ”
"Hehe, you call me Ying'er, do you think you're the master!"
Xiong Wei's serious appearance made Ouyang Ying laugh. Ouyang Ying laughed a few times, and found that Xiong Wei was really the same today, so she stopped laughing and asked, "What's wrong with you today?"
"Ying'er, you are a good girl. ”
Xiong Wei told Ouyang Ying about being infected with extreme methamphetamine. also talked about the sacrifices Xia Yun made for herself, Ouyang Ying was silent, she felt that she had grown up a lot at once after listening to Xiong Wei's words.
Xiong Wei and Ouyang Ying told the story of themselves and Xia Yun, and they felt much better.
"Ying'er, you just treat me as your brother!" he said as he took Ouyang Ying's hand, "Go back, don't play with the child's temper." ”
Ouyang Ying followed Xiong Wei back to the cabin and fell asleep with her head covered.
Xia Yun was struggling with losing contact with the Five Tigers, and Xiong Wei felt guilty thinking about what he had said about marrying Ouyang Ying, and neither of them spoke.
Xiaoyaozi has more things to think about.
After a day and a night of drifting, they finally arrived at a small town.
It was a small mountain town built near the river, and the four of them docked the boat on the shore and climbed the stairs.
The town is not big, there is only one street on the left and right, about a dozen households, but there are no more people. I don't know if it was after that fire, there was no one living here.
Xiaoyaozi relied on his memory to find the former site of the Chu State Inn.
It's a ruin. The collapsed houses have been worn out over the years.
They walked in slowly, looking at everything around them.
A house in front of me was burned to the point that only half of the roof remained, and the beams and pillars of the house were burned to black charcoal. Suddenly, the beams could no longer hold up, and the other half of the house collapsed.
"Mom!" Ouyang Ying was startled and shouted, "The ghost is here." "Ran behind Xiong Wei and hid, his eyes closed.
"Master, are you sure, who is this?" Xiong Wei said comfortingly, stroking her back, "This place has been burned to the ground. Even if anyone was eaten, they would have been eaten by ghosts. ”
Ouyang Ying looked around with wide eyes, and then looked at Xiaoyaozi. "Master, are you sure you can find anything else here?"
"Whether it can be or not is one thing, and whether you can find it is another. Xiaoyaozi replied to Ouyang Ying while checking whether there were any traces left by the fire back then, "Ying'er, you'd better stand where you used to stand, and don't move." ”
"If you move around, maybe some lonely ghost will emerge and drag you out to be a ghost bride. Xiong Wei said and grimaced at her. From the bottom of his heart, Xiong Wei likes Ouyang Ying, but he likes Ouyang Ying as his sister.
"Woo-" Ouyang Ying felt a cold sweat break out behind her back.
Xiaoyaozi shook her head helplessly. These two children, who don't seem to have grown up, are playing.
Xiong Wei stood and suddenly felt a little unstable, and he slowly cut away the residue inside with his foot: "Master, this has a weapon, which seems to be a spear, and it is a bit like Ge's head." ”
Xiaoyaozi walked over and continued to dig the remaining residues with his feet, and took away some wood on the ground that had not yet been burned to ashes, and there were some "decorations" in the residue of the Chu State Inn at that time.
"It's nothing, it's normal. ”
"Master, is it normal to have weapons?" Xiong Wei didn't understand, and he emphasized again, "It means that there was a fierce battle here, and there are still many people." ”
"The Chu Inn is the most famous inn in Chu, and in order to maintain the original style of Chu, he hung some weapons on the walls that were used by the generals of Chu during the Warring States Period. Highlight their character. ”
"Ahh
"However, it is often the best weapon in a fight. The swordsmen and heroes who came and went would come and see the weapons left by the generals back then, so he was the most famous inn. Xiaoyaozi continued, "Let's see if there is anything else of value." ”
Xia Yun also glanced around, still with a cold face, and said coldly: "The owner of this Chu Country Inn really has ideas. ”
"Master, what are we looking for here?" Ouyang Ying has been impatient with such things.
"Back then, fighting with the cold eagle here became a battle of life and death. ”
Xiaoyaozi walked back and forth in the clearing, constantly recalling the events of the past.
When Xiaoyaozi made a mistake in assassinating the head of the Wudang faction, he was injured and fled, and he met Leng Ying, the palace master of the Far North Cold Palace, in the inn of Chu State, and was seriously injured after the fire, and when he was about to escape, he found that the Vulcan faction surrounded the inn.
The Vulcan faction threw sulfur bombs into the inn, and at this time, Xiaoyaozi found that the ground of the inn was full of oil at some point, and the fire burned instantly.
"Who is the cold owl?" asked Xiong Wei again.
"It's the palace master of the Far North Cold Palace, Leng Yu's father. Xia Yun added.
"Yes, that's him. At the time, I wondered how this could be so coincidental, it all seemed to be pre-arranged. I had to start looking back at the last stop. ”
"Wait, what did you just say?" Xia Yun seemed to react suddenly, "I heard that the reason why the Extreme North Cold Palace is cold is that there is a treasure of the Extreme North Cold Palace-the Extreme North Cold Ice Jade. ”
She paused for a moment and continued to think, "It is said that a piece of divine jade was found hundreds of meters underground in the extreme north. For the purpose of repelling fire and dispeling heat, if you carry it on your body, it is like a fire cover, and the divine jade can escape by blocking the fire. ”
