307. Chapter 307 Miss, your husband is so kind to you
Xia Chuyi took a nap for only half a day. When he woke up, he found that they had penetrated Wuji continent from north to south, directly reaching the border area of southern Xinjiang.
At this time, Yancheng was already covered with ice and snow, and the snow could reach waist high. But in the south, it seemed as if this winter had never passed, and everything was green and warm.
Xia Chuyi took off his cloak, stretched comfortably in the face of the setting sun, and asked: "Are we going to southern Xinjiang tonight?"
Takiyue reached out and held her hand, his eyes falling on a small town in front of him: "Let's take a rest first and regain our energy before going tomorrow."
"Okay." Xia Chuyi had no objections. The bird's-eye view of the small town below came to mind, and he thought he would try some delicious food here.
Three white tails landed firmly on the ground on the outskirts of the town, and the car stopped without even swaying.
Takiyue opened the curtain and got out of the carriage, then carefully helped Xia Chuyi down, and the two walked along the road towards the town.
"Taiping Town." Xia Chuyi looked at the scene passing through his mind and read out the three large vermilion characters at the door seriously.
Longyue looked around and asked Xia Chu: "What do you see?"
Xia Chuyi couldn't see it herself, but through Longyue's eyes, she also had a general understanding of Taiping Town.
She clicked her tongue and sighed: "This place shouldn't be called Taiping Town, it should be called the Morgue!"
The town is not very big, but it is not small either, but the whole street is deserted, the shops are closed, and the leaves and weeds are blown all over the place by the wind.
Xia Chuyi looked around carefully and found that many houses had doors and windows intact, and some shops had new signs. There should be no talent to deal with them.
But the fact is - there is no one here.
Takiyue pulled her to a small restaurant, pushed open the door and walked in. He said, "Boss, please cook us a table of side dishes."
Xia Chuyi was about to say that Long Yue was nervous, when his ears moved slightly, and he heard two very weak breathing sounds coming from the room.
She followed Takiyoshi's gaze and landed on the wooden ladder going up to the second floor.
Ordinary ladders are made of wood suspended in the air, but here it seems to be more solid, so it is supported by solid wood. This will leave a space underneath, which can be used to pile up debris on weekdays. In times of crisis, it can still be used.
Used to avoid enemies.
Takiyue didn't force them, he helped Xia Chuyi sit down on his own, picked up Shishiyi, and threw it directly on the table.
Xia Chuyi said to the two people who were hiding: "We are not bad people, we are just here to eat. You two, please come out. If anything happens, I will block it for you."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a noise under the stairs. After a while, a man in his thirties and a woman of about the same age came out of it. They looked like a couple, so they should be
The shopkeeper and the proprietress here are here.
The shopkeeper cupped his hands at the two of them and said, "You two gentlemen, you'd better leave as soon as possible. Taiping Town is not peaceful recently and it's very dangerous to stay here."
Xia Chuyi curled his lips, touched his stomach and said, "But we are too hungry to walk."
The shopkeeper was obviously stunned for a moment, and then he said to the woman next to him: "Go and fry them two side dishes."
"But, there isn't much food left at home..." The proprietress was obviously a little embarrassed, and she pulled her husband's sleeve in a low voice.
The shopkeeper sighed softly and waved his hand at her: "Go and make it for them."
Xia Chuyi had such a good ear, he naturally heard all this clearly, and quickly stopped them: "I have food here, you can just get it."
As he spoke, he rummaged through the things sent by the people of Yancheng and piled a large pile in front of a few people.
The proprietress was stunned and looked at Xia Chuyi speechless. It wasn't until the shopkeeper urged her several times that she quickly took the ingredients and went to the kitchen.
Longyue raised his head and looked at the shopkeeper. He held Xia Chuyi's hand under the table with one hand. He raised his free hand and said to him, "Please sit down."
"Then excuse me." The insider calmly sat next to Longyue and opposite Xia Chuyi, and glanced at them.
That expression came to Xia Chuyi's mind, like an investigation or evaluation, which was a bit intriguing. However, she also noticed that the man's face was pale, his eyes were bloodshot, and he looked exhausted.
"Excuse me for asking, what are you doing in Taiping Town at this time?" the shopkeeper asked cautiously.
Longyue turned around and glanced at Xia Chuyi next to him, and said calmly: "Seek medical attention."
The shopkeeper had long noticed Xia Chuyi's abnormality. His eyes were big and dull, and he didn't seem to know where he was looking when he spoke. He knew something was wrong at the first glance.
"There are no famous doctors near Taiping Town. Beyond that, you will reach the border of Southern Xinjiang. Could it be that you two went to Southern Xinjiang to seek medical treatment?"
Xia Chuyi reached out and turned Takiyue's eyes away from her, and said "Yes" smoothly, which was a quite calm answer.
The shopkeeper's expression changed, and then he waved his hands and said: "After you two have eaten, you should hurry back the way you came. Southern Xinjiang is not a good place. If you don't go there, you won't have a chance to come back."
"Why?" Xia Chu suddenly grabbed Longyue with his backhand and asked the shopkeeper quickly.
Takiyue thought the little thing was nervous, but when he looked carefully, he saw that she was not panicked at all. She clearly had an expression of excitement and eagerness to try.
Suddenly he let out a gentle breath and sighed helplessly.
The shopkeeper stood up and lay at the door, listened and looked around, then bolted the door, and then came back and said in a low voice: "You have come from afar and don't know the situation here. Taiping Town is located in southern Xinjiang.
Although the border is adjacent to southern Xinjiang, there is a natural chasm in the middle, so no one can come from there. On weekdays, our small towns communicate with each other, are self-sufficient, and live a comfortable life. But all this,
They were all broken a month ago.”
Xia Chuyi quickly asked: "What happened? Is someone coming over from southern Xinjiang?"
The shopkeeper nodded.
Xia Chuyi was suddenly surprised: "Didn't it mean that there is a natural barrier blocking the way and no one can come here?"
When he mentioned this, it seemed to bring back the bad memories of the shopkeeper, and he suddenly fell silent, sighing with deep regret on his face.
The proprietress who brought the dishes to Xia Chuyi and the others replied on behalf of the shopkeeper: "Those are not people at all, they are devils! They have very big wings and sharp claws, and they catch people everywhere! In our towns
Those who were caught inside were caught, and those who escaped escaped. It has become a ruined town."
Xia Chuyi noticed that the boss's eyes were red. It was obvious that she had cried alone in the kitchen just now. She couldn't help but asked: "Then why don't you leave?"
It was okay that she didn't speak, but once she did, the landlady couldn't help it, and tears burst out of her eyes. The shopkeeper quickly got up and went to comfort her.
After a while, the landlady went back to the kitchen to cook, and the shopkeeper said: "My eight-year-old son was also kidnapped by those monsters ten days ago. My wife was afraid that he would not be able to find us when he came back, so I kept him alive.
I refuse to leave here. Although I know that the possibility is slim, but since we have decided to wait, we can just keep waiting. At worst, the two of us will be arrested and reunited with our son. "
As he said this, the shopkeeper smiled thoughtfully, but he felt very sad when he saw Xia Chuyi.
She touched Takiyoshi next to her with her elbow and asked in a low voice: "Do you know what those things are that are catching people everywhere?"
Takiyue picked up an orange, peeled off a piece and stuffed it into her mouth: "It should be a winged ghost. But in so many years, I haven't heard of a winged ghost being able to fly over the sky chasm in southern Xinjiang. I'll see you soon."
, just catch one and take a look and you will know.”
The shopkeeper's eyes widened and he waved his hands repeatedly: "That thing is very powerful. It's best for you two to leave as soon as possible. Don't make fun of your own lives!"
As soon as Xia Chu finished eating the orange, he opened his mouth and asked Takiyue for another piece. While eating, he asked: "Is that wing ghost very powerful?"
Fifteen was gnawing on a big date in his arms. When he heard Xia Chuyi's words, he immediately snorted: "They are just some low-level monsters. Not to mention one, there are a group of them that are no match for Lord Takino."
"Oh," Xia Chu nodded, turned around and said to the shopkeeper, "Did you hear that?"
The shopkeeper didn't notice what she said. Just looking at the talking mouse, he was so shocked that he couldn't even speak.
Takiyue stretched out his hand and poked Fifteen's soft belly, and his magnetic voice was slightly reproachful: "Look, you are scary again."
Xia Chuyi was gloating at the sidelines when he saw Taki Yue waving his sleeves and robe. The shopkeeper's body stiffened. When he came back to his senses, he was stunned for a moment: "Where did you just say?"
Takiyue was calmly feeding Chu Yi some fruit, and said casually: "Speaking of which, why is the rice not yet cooked?"
"Oh, yes, look at my memory!" The boss slapped his head and stood up apologetically, "I'll go and show you two, it'll be fine in a minute, I'll be fine in a minute."
After saying that, he stood up and left, leaving Xia Chuyi stunned.
After a while, she regained her composure and said: "Longyue, Longyue, tell the truth, after I came out from Pengsang Island, did you wave your sleeves like you did just now and erase part of my memory?
"
Longyue reached out and rubbed Xia Chuyi's hair, and said with a smile: "How could I do such a thing to you?"
Xia Chu was half convinced, and finally raised his fist at him in a demonstrative manner: "It's better not. Otherwise, I will let you know the consequences of deceiving me!"
Takiyue stretched out his hand and touched his nose, but he didn't know where his eyes were looking.
The shopkeeper and the proprietress brought the food quickly. A few simple home-cooked dishes. Although the presentation was not as good as that of the chef at Jin Yuanbao's family, the taste was still good.
The only depressing thing was that Xia Chuyi's idea of eating by himself was rejected mercilessly by Taki Yue, and in the end he could only wait like a disabled person to be fed spoon by spoon by Taki Yue.
This would be easy to say if there were no outsiders, but the problem is that there are two people sitting next to her! Doesn't this ruin her reputation for life?
Unexpectedly, the landlady said: "Girl, your husband is so kind to you."
Damn your husband, she is still a young lady, and she has no relationship with this man at all!
But...it seems that asking Takiyue to feed him is not as unacceptable as imagined.
After finishing the meal, Takiyue asked the shopkeeper to clean up a room for them. They would stay here tonight.
The shopkeeper glanced at them worriedly, but didn't say anything. He winked at the landlady, and they went upstairs to clean up the room for them.
Xia Chuyi shook off Taki Yue's hand with some displeasure: "Why do you want a room?"
Takiyoshi's charming eyes were raised, and he said with a twinkling look, "Did you forget, little one? We have always been sharing the same bed."
It was okay not to say it. After saying it, Xia Chuyi tilted his head and thought about it carefully, and suddenly had to admit sadly that what the smelly monster said was true. They had slept together for countless nights.
.
But the miracle is, a man and a woman have been sleeping on the same bed for so long, and nothing out of the ordinary happened. Is this because she is too cold, or is the man next to her simply not good enough?
She was startled as soon as the idea came to her mind, but once she started thinking, she couldn't stop thinking about it, it was all this mess.
She subconsciously wanted to see where Takiyoshi was, but all she saw in response was darkness.
Just as she was thinking wildly, she felt a tightening around her waist. A hand clasped her waist, hugged her hard, and pushed her into a solid embrace, almost painfully.
She stretched out her hand and hit Taki Yue on the chest, and said angrily: "Why are you so crazy!"
"It should be said that the little thing is thinking wildly about something." A head was placed between her neck, and the warm breath sprayed on the side of her face.
Her face suddenly burned, and she said with some embarrassment: "You actually used voyeurism to spy on me!"
Takiyue suddenly laughed twice, and the voice was more charming and sweet than any other voice: "How can I peek into the little thing's heart? It's just that whatever you think is written on your face. I just asked casually,
You are annoyed, are you really thinking about something that you shouldn't be thinking about?"
As soon as Xia Chu knew that Longyue was looking at her, she immediately stretched out her hand to grab him, and her current appearance immediately appeared in her mind.
His face was flushed, as if he had eaten too much chili pepper, his expression was shy and angry, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were slightly raised, and there was even a little bit of charm.
Is this still her?
Shocked for a moment, she took a deep breath and decided to get something back from Takiyoshi.
The corners of her lips curled up, she smiled contemptuously, and said, "Takita-san, let me tell you a story. Do you want to listen?"
Takiyue nodded: "Listen."
"Once upon a time, a woman and a man stayed in an inn at night. They had no choice but to sleep on the same couch because there was no room. Before going to bed, the woman drew a line in the middle of the couch and said to the man: 'How can you stay tonight?
If you cross this line, you are a love beast!' At dawn, the man really did not cross that line. After the woman woke up, she gave the man a slap in the face and cursed: 'You - you are worse than a love beast!'"
After saying that, Xia Chuyi snorted triumphantly, and his expression repeatedly expressed one meaning - so what if he slept with her for so long? Isn't he "worse than a love animal"?
Takiyue also smiled softly at this moment. He looked at her with those extremely beautiful eyes, shining brightly: "Can I understand, little one, are you hinting at me?"
Xia Chuyi's proud and arrogant look didn't last long before he was choked by Taki Yue's words.
Fortunately, the shopkeeper and his wife came down from upstairs and said to them: "The room is ready. Do you need to boil hot water for you two?"
Xia Chu came back to her senses and waved her hands at them: "No hot water is needed, cold water will do. The colder the better." She could use it to practice kung fu.
The couple looked at each other and knew that they had met a weirdo today, so they didn't say anything and immediately went to prepare things for them.
However, before the stairs were finished, Takiyoshi suddenly said: "You two, go and hide quickly, something is coming."
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment: "Everyone in this town has fled, and those monsters haven't been here for several days. Why are they here again?"
"Maybe they are here to catch fish that slipped through the net. You should hide first." Although Xia Chuyi couldn't see it, his ears could already hear the noise outside. They were the only ones with lights on in the whole town, and those monsters would definitely look towards them.
Flying here.
The shopkeeper first asked the landlady to hide in, and was about to turn off the lamp before hiding, when he saw Taki Yue waving his hand towards him.
He moved for a moment, then quickly turned around and hid in the place where they had been hiding.
Fifteen jumped into Xia Chuyi's arms. Xia Chuyi held it, and Long Yue held her. They sat in the lobby of the small restaurant, waiting for the arrival of the monsters.
He was even afraid that those things would not be found, so Takiyue stretched out his hand and opened the door directly.
As expected, after a while I heard some strange sounds, like the cry of a baby or the mournful cry of a bird, sharp and harsh.
Xia Chuyi couldn't help but mutter: "It sounds awful."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a few dark shadows falling at the door. They just stood there without coming in and yelled wildly inside.
She looked carefully and saw that the black figures were about as tall as a person, with a pointed head and a body underneath. From a distance, they looked like human figures. If you looked closer, you would find that the head was bald and exposed.
It comes from the skin. Below the two large nostrils is a long beak, and the body below looks like the wings are folded.
She gently touched Takiyoshi and said, "Is this what you mean by Winged Ghost?"
Takiyue leaned close to her ear and exhaled like a blue breath: "Like."
Xia Chuyi couldn't help but shrink his neck. When he made trouble, his reaction was slow: "Like? What do you mean?"
Fifteen in her arms answered for Takiyue: "These guys are discussing how to come in and catch you, which means they have thinking and have a high IQ. If you use spiritual power to explore, you can find that they either carry water-attribute spirits."
Either they have fire-attribute spiritual power, which is not what they should have. Winged ghosts are very stupid, and it is okay to be controlled by the demon clan and capture some animals. It is unheard of to capture people like this."
