Ni Chu

Half an hour later, Meng Su, who was immersed in sleep, shrugged her nose. In the dream, she returned to her grandfather Meng Tian, ​​and Meng Tian prepared a table full of delicious food for her, especially a plate containing a large grilled fish.

The grilled fish was charred on the outside and tender on the inside. Meng Tian used his chopsticks to pick up the golden skin of the grilled fish, revealing the snow-white flesh inside. As the heat evaporated, a rich aroma immediately filled the whole room.

Mengsu stretched out his soft tongue and licked his lips, his hungry stomach let out a "gurgling" cry under the temptation of the smell of fish.

She picked up the chopsticks and wanted to pick up the grilled fish on the plate, but to her surprise, Meng Tian picked up the fish with a smile all over her face, and smiled strangely at her.

Seeing the grilled fish being taken away, Meng Su became anxious, looking pitifully at Meng Tian who was holding the grilled fish in his hand and was looking at her with a smile on his eyes.

"Grandpa, give me the fish!" Meng Su pursed his mouth, and moved closer to Meng Tian with a little fuss, but the chopsticks in his hand secretly reached for the grilled fish on the plate.

"Uh! No way!" Just as Mengsu's chopsticks were about to catch the grilled fish, a voice suddenly came from his ear: "If you want to eat fish, you don't have to call me grandpa so coquettishly, as long as you shout well Brother will do."

This sentence was very frivolous, and Meng Su was furious immediately, and sat up straight up. When she opened her eyes, she saw Xiang Ye's face full of smirks.

In front of that face full of smirks, a grilled fish pierced with wooden sticks kept dangling in front of Mengsu's eyes.This fish was very different from the one she saw in her dream. Not only was it much smaller than that one, but the skin was also scorched, and in some places a charcoal-like black appeared.

Even though the grilled fish was ugly, Mengsu, who had been hungry for two days, still snatched the fish from Xiang Ye in a hurry, regardless of whether he had said frivolous words to her just now, he opened his mouth Chewed up.

"Slow down, slow down, there's more! Watch out for the fishbone!" Seeing Mengsu eating the somewhat burnt fish he baked like a delicacy in the world, Xiang Ye smiled contentedly and went out. The sound reminded Mengsu who was devouring.

After eating a fish in two mouthfuls, Mengsu looked at Xiang Ye pitifully like a kitten that hadn't eaten enough, wanting to ask for another fish.

Xiang Ye smiled at her, walked out of the hut, and came in with some fish after a while.

He put the fish in front of Mengsu, and said softly: "Eat slowly, if there are not enough fish, I will catch them again, and don't get caught by the fishbone."

After that, he picked up a fish and walked to the side of the strange man lying on the ground, held up his head, let him rest on his lap, peeled off a piece of fish and fed it into the man's mouth.

After the fish was in his mouth, the man chewed slowly reflexively.Xiang Ye just peeled the fish piece by piece and fed it to him. After he finished feeding the whole fish, when he wanted to go back and get a fish to eat by himself, he was surprised to find that all the fish placed in front of Mengsu were It turned into a fishbone, and Mengsu rubbed his belly contentedly and lay down.

He prepared these fish for the three of them to eat, but Meng Su, a weak-looking woman, ate them all in one go, except for the injured man who ate one, but Xiang Ye himself didn't even catch a fish scale .

He shook his head helplessly, left the hut again, and walked towards the river.

In this way, the three lived in the hut for more than ten days, and the strange man gradually recovered under Xiang Ye's care.Since he eats fish every day, there is no shortage of nutrition. His wound has recovered very well, and he can basically move freely after more than ten days.

In the past ten days, Mengsu was the one with the most troubled mood.When she knew that Xiang Ye had to touch the snails on the river bed every day, then crush the snails with a long sword, and finally use the snail meat as bait to fish, she felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.

During the more than ten days of getting along, Xiang Ye gave Mengsu a very strange feeling. She didn't know what kind of eyes to look at Xiang Ye.Sometimes Xiang Ye is very frivolous, lecherous and even ignorant of etiquette, but more often he would rather be hungry than give food to Mengsu and the man they saved, more than she has ever seen before. Anyone who wants to be selfless.

The man they rescued didn't move or speak all day long. Although his body had recovered, except for Chu Gong, he spent most of the rest of the time sitting in the room with his eyes closed and meditating.

The man neither went out to fish nor communicated with Xiang Ye and Mengsu. After Xiang Ye grilled the fish he just caught from the river, he had to send it to him, so he reluctantly raised his eyes to take a look. Turn your face to eat the fish without leaving any spines.

"Brother, where are you from?" Xiang Ye has asked the strange man this question no less than ten times. Whenever he asked this question, the strange man always stared at him warily but did not answer.

"Your injury is almost healed, it's time to part ways." Xiang Ye put two grilled fish in the pottery bowl in front of the strange man, smiled at him and said, "We still have to hurry, your injury He has largely recovered and should be able to go home on his own."

"Aren't you from Wuyue Jianzhong?" The strange man raised his head, looked directly at Xiang Ye, and spoke for the first time.

"Wuyue Sword Tomb?" Xiang Ye frowned. He still remembered the men in white clothes he met when he met Chi Xue'e. He was very uncomfortable with the arrogant attitude of those men in white clothes. After hurting Chi Xue'e and killing the entire caravan, Xiang Ye really didn't like Wu Yue Jianzhong.He curled his lips and said, "Could it be that Your Excellency is from Wuyue Sword Tomb?"

The strange man narrowed his eyes, looked Xiang Ye from head to toe and asked, "Do you know someone from Wuyue Jianzhong?"

This time, he didn't ask Xiang Ye if he was from Wuyue Jianzhong. From Xiang Ye's expression and temperament, he could already tell that Xiang Ye couldn't be from Wuyue Jianzhong.

"It's hard to say that we know each other." Xiang Ye pulled the corner of his mouth, and said with a slight smile: "A few days ago, I met a few people from Wuyue Sword Tomb..."

Before he could finish his words, a long sword of Sen Han was placed around his neck, and the strange man's facial muscles convulsed quickly and said to him: "Since you know them, you must have plans for me. Both of you must die!"

"Why do you avenge your kindness?" The strange man put his sword on Xiang Ye's neck, and Meng Su who was beside him quickly jumped up and drew out his long sword and pointed at him. He asked very angrily, "Young Master Xiang saw you dying in the wilderness." , if he had a plan for you, he could stab you to death at that time, why did he take so much trouble to bring you here? These days, he went out to fish for everyone to eat, and he grilled it well You sent us his food, and you eat his food and take care of him all day long, yet you still have the face to point a sword at him?"

The man frowned, and the muscles on his face twitched violently. After a while, he retracted his long sword and sighed: "I think I, Gai Nie, was once a shocking figure, but now I am so downcast that I am afraid of Wu Yue sword." A child like Zhong, pointing his long sword at the benefactor who saved me, is really ridiculous! Ridiculous! Haha!"

"Are you the number one swordsman in Daqin?" After the man reported himself, Mengsu widened his eyes in astonishment and looked at him in disbelief.

"Gai Nie?" Xiang Ye was also taken aback, staring at Gai Nie for a long time before asking in surprise, "Could it be that you are Gai Nie from Yuci?"

Gai Nie nodded, and said to Xiang Ye: "Brother Xiang, I have offended you so much, I hope you will forgive me! A few days ago, Zhao was besieged by more than 30 swordsmen led by Xin Nong, the head of the Wuyue Sword Tomb. I killed more than ten people, but Xin Nong's swordsmanship was almost the same as mine, and he had a helper, so it was really difficult for me to fight the enemy, so I was injured and fled."

When Gai Nie said these words, the expression on his face was very lonely, obviously very annoyed at losing to Xin Nong.

"Who are you? Why did you come here?" Gai Nie looked at Xiang Ye and Meng Su and asked briefly after briefly describing his own experience, "This son's surname is Xiang, is he from the Jiangdong Xiang clan?"

Xiang Ye shook his head and smiled and said, "Although my surname is Xiang, I'm not from the Jiangdong Xiang clan." Having said that, he turned his head and looked at Mengsu who was standing behind him. He moved his mouth but did not introduce Mengsu to Nie Ce. Su.

Although Xiang Ye knew that Gai Nie was the number one swordsman in Daqin, he still didn't dare to reveal Mengsu's identity easily. He and Mengsu were fleeing, and if they were a little careless, they might lose their lives.

Xiang Ye didn't dare to introduce, but Meng Su clasped his fists to Gai Nie and saluted and said: "Meng Su is a descendant of General Meng Tian, ​​and now he is avoiding the killer sent by Zhao Gao to hunt us down, but he met Mr. The gentleman will receive the next gift."

After finishing speaking, she bent down and bowed deeply to Gai Nie, Gai Nie quickly got up to help her and bowed to her and said: "It turns out that after you belong to the Meng family, Zhao is disrespectful, I hope you don't blame me." !"

Meng Su smiled slightly, and before she could speak, Ge Nie asked, "Where is the swordsman who chased you? What's the name of the leader?"

"The leader seems to be Guan Yijian." At this time, Xiang Ye interjected and said, "That man's swordsmanship is very good, and he can also use the legendary 'Hundred Step Flying Sword'..."

As soon as he said this, Ge Nie interrupted him, frowning and asked: "Hundred Step Flying Sword? What kind of move is it? Can Mr. Xiang demonstrate it to Zhao."

"Yeah." Xiang Ye nodded, stood up and took out the dagger from his pocket, flashed it in his hand and then swished the dagger out.The dagger drew a beautiful arc and penetrated deeply into the adobe wall of the hut.

"His hundred-step flying sword is faster and more precise than mine." Seeing the dagger still dangling on the wall, Xiang Ye frowned and said, "Young Master Meng almost fell into his trap." Son."

"This is the Hundred-Step Flying Sword?" Gai Nie stared fixedly at the slightly trembling dagger nailed to the wall and said, "Why do I feel that this move is just a simple throwing dagger no matter how I look at it?"
