Tianlang helped Mu Shuang emerge from the teleportation formation and appeared in a barren mountain.
At this time, winter has entered the outside world, and the night has fallen. The mountains are covered with dead trees, piled with snow, and covered with snow. I don’t know where I am, but I guess it should be in the boundary of the Shenyu Mountain Range.
There is no night at all in the God of War Xuanjie. At this time, they suddenly appeared in the outside world. The sky was dark, and both of them were a little lost.
Tianlang lowered his head and glanced at Mu Shuang, and found that Mu Shuang was still pale. It was obvious that the spell was broken and she suffered a lot of damage. He immediately frowned: "You look like this, let's find a place to rest for a few days."
, let’s go back to Xuanxing Sect.”
Mu Shuang laughed weakly and nodded. Tianlang and Mu Shuang turned into a rainbow and soared into the sky before disappearing.
After burning the incense, Tianlang and Mu Shuangfei left the mountainous area, found a small village at the foot of the mountain, and landed there.
There were about dozens of houses in the village. As night fell, dim lights shone through the windows of every house, and streams of smoke ignited.
From time to time, loud barking of dogs could be heard in the village, and a few children set off firecrackers in the open space at the head of the village, creating a peaceful scene.
Tianlang helped Mu Shuang walk to a farmyard near the entrance of the village, walked to the door from a path that had been cleared of snow, and reached out to knock on the door.
Not long after, the door opened, and a farm man in his forties stuck his head out. Sirius immediately said coldly: "Prepare two clean rooms. We want to stay here."
Sirius' tone was cold, and the smile on the farmer's uncle's face suddenly froze, and he was a little dazed.
Mu Shuang hurriedly gave Sirius a secret elbow and smiled at his uncle: "Uncle, my brother was joking. We went into the mountains to play and accidentally got lost. You see it's already dark now. Can you please interrupt us?
one time?"
The uncle was kind-hearted in nature. After listening to Mu Shuang’s words, he hurriedly let the two people into the house and said:
"Come into the house quickly. It's in the wild mountains and it's so cold outside. Where can you two go? Just stay here. I'll ask your aunt to heat up the soup for you."
"Thank you, uncle." Mu Shuang smiled sweetly, walked into the house with Sirius, and sat down around the stove in the main room. Although he didn't feel the cold due to his cultivation, Mu Shuang still stretched out his hand and stayed close to the stove.
The residence is baking.
At this time, the door curtain was lifted, and a middle-aged woman walked out of the room next to her. When she saw the decorations of the two people, she laughed:
"Yeah, you look like a kid from a rich family. Why are you running to the mountains in such a cold weather? It's cold, come and have a barbecue." He added two more pieces of charcoal to the stove.
Tianlang wanted to speak, but he didn't know what to say when he opened his mouth. Instead, Mu Shuang laughed and said:
"Thank you, auntie. In fact, it's not too cold for us, cough cough..."
At the end of the story, Mu Shuang felt weak and couldn't help coughing twice?
"Ah! Girl, are you sick? Why do you look so weak?" The aunt looked at Mu Shuang's face turning pale and suddenly showed a look of concern:
"It's not good to get sick during the Chinese New Year. I happen to have a chicken at home. Girl, please wait while I make you a pot of chicken soup."
"No need, aunt, my body is fine."
"No need to be polite to auntie, just wait here."
…
The aunt left in a hurry, and soon there was a sound of chickens and dogs jumping outside the house. Mu Shuang shrugged, stuck out his tongue at Sirius, and warmed himself around the stove.
Sirius listened to the sounds outside the house, and the lines on his face gradually softened. He had never experienced this kind of communication and care between people. Sirius also felt a warm feeling in his heart at this time.
Sirius Mu Shuang and his uncle were warming up around the stove. Uncle and Mu Shuang were chatting happily. Sirius was sitting attentively aside, staring at the two chatting with wide eyes, not knowing how to interrupt.
However, Tianlang learned a piece of information from the content of the chat. The Spring Festival will be in three days, and the time he spent in the mysterious world is indeed not short.
Soon, the aunt made the chicken soup and brought it to the dining table in the main room. The four of them sat around the dining table and ate together. Mu Shuang had a smile on her face and drank the chicken soup that the aunt made for her.
Sirius also has a very good appetite. After all, Sirius has been sleeping in the open air, basically relying on Bigu Pills to maintain his needs. He rarely eats. Even if it is grilled game, there are no condiments. It is rare to have the opportunity to eat such farm food.
While eating, the aunt couldn't help but look at Mu Shuang, cleared her throat, and finally seemed to have made up her mind, looking at Mu Shuang with a burning gaze:
"Miss Mu, do you have a boyfriend? My aunt has a nephew who is very energetic."
Mu Shuang suddenly blushed and swallowed the chicken soup in her mouth. She almost choked and waved her hands: "Auntie, I..."
The uncle secretly took the aunt's hand and whispered: "Don't say such useless things. Miss Mu is the daughter of a wealthy family. Can someone like Huzi be worthy of this girl?"
But the aunt rolled her eyes: "Where can I find such a good girl? I have to give it a try anyway."
The uncle came close to the aunt's ear and whispered: "Come on, I think this young man named Tianlang is better than Huzi. Although the name is a little weird, Huzi is no good."
"Aren't they two brothers and sisters? How can they be together?"
"Oh, are you really stupid? They both have different surnames. They could be brother and sister. How can running into the mountains on a cold day have anything to do with each other? They might just be eloping."
"..."
The uncle and aunt spoke in a low voice, but with the listening skills of Mu Shuang and Tian Lang, the conversation reached their ears word for word. Tian Lang suddenly blushed and lowered his head to eat.
Mu Shuang rolled her eyes and smiled at her aunt: "Aunt, you don't have to worry about me. I, my brother, can help me find a sister-in-law."
"Really!" The aunt's eyes suddenly lit up when she heard about the matchmaking: "Auntie, you have found the right person. The daughter of the old man Wang's family in the village is called a handsome girl. She is a flower in every village for ten miles. Young man.
Do you need Auntie to help you?"
"Ahem, aunt, no need. I..." Sirius' eyes widened and he hurriedly put down the bowls and chopsticks. He shook his head and stared at Mu Shuang, but Mu Shuang chuckled:
"Auntie, my brother just wants you to worry about trouble, so I won't bother you anymore."
"No trouble, no trouble. If A Fang can keep up with such a young man, she will be lucky."
"It's really no need, auntie, I have no such plan yet."
"Young man, do you think you have a sweetheart?"
"No...no."
"Then why don't you use aunt's help? A Fang is such a good girl."
"I..., I'm not worthy of her!"
"..."
Mu Shuang was too weak to leave on the road, so the two of them stayed at the uncle's house. Fortunately, the uncle's son had already married and left a vacant room for the two of them to live in.
Three days later, Mu Shuang's injury had almost recovered, and this day was the Spring Festival.
Since early in the morning, the two of them helped the uncle and aunt put up Spring Festival couplets and make dumplings. As for Xiaolong, he absorbed another piece of fire essence and fell asleep.
In the past four days, the biggest change was that of Sirius. Everyone in the village was very friendly to him and Mu Shuang.
Sirius has been integrated into the group for the first time since he was a child. He feels the deep warmth between people. The coldness on his face melts a lot. When he speaks, he is no longer as cold as ice. He gradually adapts to the relationship with others.
People communicate.
And that kind of festive New Year atmosphere was something Sirius had never experienced before, and his mood improved a lot because of it.
That night, after dinner, all the men, women, and children in the village gathered in the open space in front of the village. At this time, a tall tower made of various grain straws was erected on the open space.
An elder in the village carried a flame with a bamboo pole and ignited the top of the grass tower. Suddenly, a hot flame burned down from the top, and the entire grass tower burned.
At the same time, the sound of crackling firecrackers rang out around the entrance of the village, and the fierce burning flames also ignited the enthusiasm of the villagers. Hundreds of people pointed, laughed and played around the burning thatched tower, with joyful smiles on their faces.
.
Mu Shuang stood beside Tianlang, pointing to the blazing grass tower, with a happy smile on his face:
"Brother Sirius, is this a custom common in many rural areas? During the Spring Festival, tall towers are built with grain straws and lit. They are used to ward off diseases and exorcise evil spirits, and to pray for happiness and peace in the coming year."
Sirius nodded, with the chaotic fire reflected in his eyes, and his usually cold face seemed to have been melted away by the warm torch, with a faint smile.
The raging flames gradually burned away the straw at the bottom of the thatched tower, and the entire thatched tower gradually became unstable. Finally, it fell over and fell to the west with a roar, sending up a cloud of flying sparks.
After the thatched tower fell, the surrounding villagers gradually gathered around and warmed their hands around the fire. Several children playfully threw the firecrackers into the fire, laughing amidst the crackling sound.
Mu Shuang also took Tianlang's hand and walked closer to the fire. He stretched out his hand to bake it and said with a smile: "Come on, let's bake it, Brother Tianlang. May the new year be happy and healthy!"
Tianlang turned his head and looked at Mu Shuang, whose pretty face was flushed and smiling like a flower under the firelight. He smiled slightly and stretched out his hand towards the fire. Feeling the passionate temperature, he stared at Mu Shuang and murmured in his heart: "I hope you will live forever."
Safety."
At this moment, the sound of whizzing through the sky came from the distance. Looking up, I saw a few firelights jumping into the sky, exploding with a bang, and gorgeous fireworks bloomed.
Mu Shuang's face was full of excitement. She shook Tianlang's arm and pointed: "Brother Tianlang, look, look, those fireworks are so beautiful. Fireworks are never set off on Chenxing Mountain during the Chinese New Year. Every year, my senior brother and I secretly go down the mountain.
Come and see!”
Sirius looked up at the fireworks in the sky with a hint of admiration in his eyes, but at this moment, Mu Shuang next to him suddenly changed his expression and said to Sirius:
"Brother Tianlang, I'll leave for a while. You wait for me here."
"What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Sirius showed some concern.
"It's nothing. I forgot something in the house. I'll go back and get it." After saying that, he turned and walked away.
Sirius frowned slightly, but did not ask further questions. He slowly withdrew his gaze and continued to watch the fireworks.
But after waiting for a long time, Sirius still didn't see Mu Shuang return. Sirius frowned gradually and walked towards the house, only to find that there was a big lock on the door and Mu Shuang didn't come back at all.
Where did Mu Shuang go? Sirius frowned more and more, his eyes flashed, he set up his star knife and flew out, searching for Mu Shuang's whereabouts in the nearby mountains and forests.
After burning the incense, when Sirius passed by a short mountain, his expression suddenly changed. From the other side of the short mountain, the sound of gold and iron clashing came. Someone was definitely fighting there.
Sirius's eyes flashed, and he hurriedly went around with his sword. But after he rounded the top of the mountain and saw clearly the scene in a forest clearing, his eyes widened instantly.
In the open space, Mu Shuang's sleeves were fluttering, his body was shuttled, and he shot out a series of talismans, paper and jade slips, which turned into various immortal arts. A fairy sword bloomed with a bright sword light, striking vertically and horizontally.
Her opponents are three cold-blooded killers dressed in black, with Rakshasa totems on their lapels, they are bloodthirsty and cruel!
