Fairy on top

My words did not shock the old man, but they shocked Xiao Siqing.

Xiao Siqing's eyes widened and she looked at me in disbelief.

I didn't give little Siqin a chance to speak. I lowered my head and looked at the gold box in my hand, then looked at the old man and continued, "Master Village Master, what kind of hatred do you and the Saint have? Why are you two plotting against each other like this? "

Is it really just because of a change of heart, or after weighing the pros and cons, that the Saint is the one who can be discarded, so he can be so cruel and scheming with the Saint?

He was about to die, and he even thought about harming the saint again before he died. So what else could he have to say about what happened back then? He killed his daughter with his own hands, and now he is still acting innocent in front of us. It is really disgusting.

From the moment we entered the room he started his act and he was acting. That's why his emotions and the words he said always gave me a strange and inconsistent feeling.

I didn't dare to finish the sentence, after all, we are still in the men's village, on his territory. I feel happy when I should scold him, but if I make him angry, we will get into trouble.

After listening to what I said, the old man said nothing and just kept staring at me with his head raised.

There was no unnecessary expression on the old face, and the emotions in the cloudy eyes could not be seen.

Being stared at by him like this, I felt a little regretful. Maybe I shouldn't have impulsively exposed his thoughts. The purpose of our coming here is to get the grasshopper. Now that we have the grasshopper, we can leave safely. I shouldn't cause trouble.

When I was wondering whether I should make amends, the old man suddenly laughed.

It wasn't a sneer that revealed his true colors. His smile was kind and friendly, and he even looked at me with admiration. Anyway, I didn't feel any hostility from him.

Even so, I didn't let down my guard. They say he is a cunning person. Who knows if he was deliberately showing kindness and then suddenly attacked us when we were not prepared.

"Female donor," the old man looked at me and said, "You can go."

I was startled.

I thought the old man would argue that it was not easy to tell his difficulties. What I didn't expect was that he actually ordered us to be kicked out.

Seeing that I was stunned, the old man grabbed the bamboo pole, stood up tremblingly, and said to me with a smile, "I have already received the grass-rooted agarwood you asked for. Does the female donor need other herbs?"

I shook my head.

Yuchen, who had been silent all this time, spoke now.

He cupped his fists and saluted, "Thank you, senior, for giving me the medicine."

After saying that, Yuchen pulled me and turned around to leave the house.

Xiao Siqing and Leng Yan followed us out.

As we left the room, the door was slammed shut by the old man.

Ah Gang was still waiting under the bamboo ladder. As we walked down, Ah Gang glanced at the gold box in my hand, but said nothing. He turned around and led us out of the men's village.

Walking to the valley far away from the men's village, Xiao Siqin finally couldn't help it and screamed, "The people in the men's village are just as weird as the women's village! The leader of the village needs Cao Touwu to survive, and everyone in the women's village knows this. Could they not know? They didn’t react at all when they saw us taking away the grass-rooted blackbird! This is too strange. Also, the old man who is the leader of the village is also strange. Dad. "

Xiao Siqing looked at Yuchen and asked curiously, "Which of the words the old man said are true and which are false?"

I have also been confused by the old man's abnormality.

When I felt that there was something hidden about what happened back then and that the old man was not bad in nature, what the old man said immediately slapped me in the face, making me feel that the old man's kindness was all an act and that his nature was insidious and cunning.

But just when I felt that the saint did not misunderstand him and that he was a complete scumbag, his behavior made me feel that he was not a vicious person by nature.

I can't tell the difference anymore.

I also looked at Yuchen, waiting for him to give me an answer.

Yuchen took the gold box from my hand and threw it away. The gold box was thrown to the rocks nearby. The box hit the rock, the lid opened, and the grasshopper inside rolled out of the box.

After rolling to the ground, the grasshopper rots at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Oops!" Xiao Siqin looked distressed and ran over to pick up the grasshopper.

Leng Yan pulled Xiao Siqing and said, "Your father will not harm your mother. Your father threw the grass-headed cucumber. He must have a reason. Don't come close."

Seeing Leng Yan protecting Xiao Siqin like this, my impression of Leng Yan changed a bit.

The trip to the Demon Sealed Valley may have really changed Leng Yan, and he developed an almost instinctive desire to protect Xiao Siqin.

Just like Xiao Siqing said, we should no longer look at Leng Yan with the same old eyes, we should also try to trust him.

"Dad!" Xiao Siqing was pulled back by Leng Yan, and then she came to her senses, and asked Yuchen anxiously, "This is the medicine for mom to treat the hand injury, why did you throw it away? Now the grass-head crow is gone, the saint I definitely won’t treat my mother’s injuries!”

"Take the grass-rooted blackberry over there, the saint will not heal it."

As he spoke, Yuchen glanced at Leng Yan coolly, then lowered his eyes, and finally his eyes fell on Leng Yan's hand holding Xiao Siqing.

There was no change in his expression, but I knew him too well. I knew every little expression on his face, so at this moment I knew he was unhappy.

Leng Yan is a devil, with a beast-like sensitivity to danger. There was no need for me to remind him. When he noticed the coldness radiating from Yuchen's body, he reacted immediately and let go of Xiao Siqing's hand.

Xiao Siqing didn't feel anything was wrong at all. Leng Yan suddenly let go of her hand. She was confused for a moment and turned to look at Leng Yan.

At this time, Yuchen continued, "Didn't you ask me which of the village master's words are true and which of them are false?"

Attracted by Yuchen's words, Xiao Siqing ignored the cold expression and quickly turned back to look at Yuchen, her big eyes shining with curiosity, concentrating on him.

I almost laughed at Yuchen.

Xiao Siqin took the initiative to win over Leng Yan, but Yu Chen didn't react at all. As long as his daughter is happy, that's fine. But Leng Yan pulls Xiao Siqing, this is not possible, how can he take advantage of his daughter!

Enough double standards!

I curled my lips, calmed my mind, and waited for Yuchen to answer my questions like Xiao Siqing.

Yuchen said, "Those things the village leader said are all false, including the stories the saint told you, which are probably also false. The truth is not the case."

Xiao Siqin's mouth opened wide.

I also looked in disbelief, "It's all fake? Why would the saint make up such a story to deceive us?" Are you teasing us? Is it so boring?

Yuchen continued, "Made up stories to trick us into doing things for them. Lin Xi, do you still remember what I said to you before we separated?"

I nodded and said I remembered.

At that time, Yuchen told me that he suspected that there was no King of Medicine in the two cottages. These two cottages were a test given to us by King of Medicine. Only by passing the test can we see the Medicine King himself.

I reacted, "Coaxing us to do things for them is a test for us?"

Yuchen nodded, "You have already sent the things from the female village to the male village. Next, as long as you send the things from the male village back to the female village and fulfill their requirements, this will be a test for the King of Medicine. It’s not qualified.”

I think what Yuchen said makes sense, but at the same time I feel a little unbelievable.

I said, "Sending things is a test for us? So King Yao means that we shouldn't listen to them or help them?"

Yuchen chuckled lightly and said, "It's not that I don't help them, it's that I shouldn't be led by their noses. Let's go to the women's village now and ask for the truth." (End of Chapter)
