Po Meng chuckled lightly, and said with a hint of teasing in her tone: "Then I wish our future young hero from the East to realize his wish as soon as possible~"
After saying that, Po Meng took the reins from Wei Ming's hand and raised the reins gently, causing the horse to accelerate immediately.
"Wow~"
This sudden acceleration caught Weiming, who was sitting behind Po Meng, a little off guard. The arm that was originally lightly hugging Po Meng's waist subconsciously turned into a tight hug. At this time, Po Meng's reminding voice reached Weiming's ears.
A voice rang out, "Hurry up~Young Hero of the East!"
There was a hint of mischief in his tone...
...
Three days later, on the thirteenth day of the first lunar month, it was the end of Si Shi.
"Huh~ I finally came back before the Lantern Festival!"
Weiming stood outside Xiaoyao Town (a small town at the foot of Xiaoyao Valley), took a long breath and said.
Different from when they left, Wei Ming and Po Meng had to go much faster on the way back. The reason was that they actually encountered horse thieves on the way. And with their skills, who would rob whom was naturally the winner?
No need to think too much.
Needless to say, Po Meng's skills are not weaker than those of the leaders of the major sects. Even in terms of light skills and hidden weapons, those who can defeat and retain her in the world are probably no more than one palm, which can be used to deal with a few petty thieves.
Naturally, it is within reach.
Besides, Wei Ming, although he is just in the beginning of his martial arts, he still has the seventh level of acquired skills. It is natural that he can deal with some small thieves in the wild. It is also for this reason, so later on, Meng Po basically did not take the initiative to take action.
When the robbers arrive, let Wei Ming go first. Unless there are too many enemies and Wei Ming is outnumbered and unable to defeat them, Meng Po will come to the rescue. It is euphemistically called actual combat training.
As a result of this journey, not only were Weiming and Mengpo not robbed of anything, but they also received a lot of trophies and bounties from the local government, and horses were one of the trophies that Weiming obtained.
I have to say that the horse thief's horse is really good, almost as good as Weiming's Guanzhong good horse that he rode from Xiaoyao Valley. Therefore, Weiming and Meng Po would ride one by one on the road ahead. If it weren't for Weiming's riding skills
It's not perfect enough, and the two of them may have to return to Xiaoyao Valley half a day early.
"Let's go in quickly~" Po Meng looked at the sky, turned to Weiming and said: "Looking at the sky, maybe we can still make it in time for lunch~"
"Okay~" Wei Ming responded, and he and Po Meng sent the horses to the stables in the town. Like shops such as the blacksmith shop, this place also belongs to Xiaoyao Valley's industry, because Xiaoyao Valley is located in the mountains, and it is difficult to
It is inconvenient to go down the mountain immediately, so the horses in the valley are basically stored here for traveling.
After depositing the horses, the two went directly up the mountain and back to the valley. The mountain road in Xiaoyao Valley was not too rugged, and both of them had Qinggong skills. Within half a quarter of an hour, they saw the familiar yard and the familiar land.
Maple forests and small rivers left from the mountains.
"Huh~ I'm finally back!" Wei Ming sighed once again, and at the same time he had a little more understanding in his heart that this is his current home!
"Yeah~ I'm back." Po Meng also said at the side, but her eyes were not looking at the yard, but at Wei Ming beside her. For her, it didn't matter where her home was, but the people at home were more important.
"Hmm~ It seems that Lao Hu is cooking." Wei Ming put up the awning with his hands, looked at the few wisps of smoke in the direction of the kitchen, and murmured to himself: "It seems that the meal time has not been missed."
Seeing this, Po Meng smiled slightly, stepped forward and tapped Wei Ming's forehead, and said: "Okay, stop looking, let's go in quickly~"
"Um!"
On the other side, in the kitchen of Xiaoyao Valley.
"Brother, my vegetables have been cut. Is there anything else that needs to be cut~"
"Bring it here after it's cut, and then cut that piece of bacon into slices!" Gu Yuexuan said while shaking the iron pot.
"Got it~" Jingjie responded, casually taking a piece of dried bacon from the wall, cutting it into pieces and saying: "I don't know when that brat will come back, it was supposed to be his turn to cook today~
"
"I heard from the master that it should be in the next two days." Gu Yuexuan smiled and looked at Jingji and said: "You don't have to worry about Aji. Junior brother, he is extremely talented and witty. In addition, Senior Meng has
If you go together, nothing will go wrong."
Hearing what Gu Yuexuan said, Jingji felt a lot more at ease in his heart, but he still said stiffly: "Who are you worried about him? I'm just afraid that he will die outside and ruin the reputation of our Xiaoyao Valley!"
"Hehe~ Is Second Senior Brother so worried about me dying outside?"
Gu Yuexuan smiled and said nothing, but a familiar voice came from outside the door. Then they saw the kitchen door open, and an unknown figure walked in from the door, with a sunny smile on his face, looking at Gu Yuexuan and
Jingjie said: "First senior brother and second senior brother, we haven't seen each other for so many days, do you miss me~?"
"Junior brother~!?" Jingjia chopped the knife on the cutting board, turned around and looked at Weiming who pushed the door open, a flash of joy flashed in his eyes, but then he calmed down, and said unceremoniously: "
You kid, you’ve been out in the wild for so long, and you finally know you’re back? It just so happens that it’s your turn to cook today, why don’t you come over and help me cut the meat~!”
"Aji~" Gu Yuexuan glanced at Aji with one part reproach, one part teasingly, then looked at Weiming, and said kindly: "Junior brother, you are finally back. During the time you were away, Master and Aji
Does Ji often talk about you?"
After hearing this, Wei Ming naturally felt very warm in his heart, but Ah Ji, who was next to him, became a little shy and retorted unconsciously: "Who would care about this silly boy?" He said, probably to avoid it.
Embarrassed, Jingji turned around and continued to compete with the piece of bacon, without letting Weiming cut it for him.
Seeing Jingjia's appearance, Gu Yuexuan smiled and shook his head, then turned to Weiming and said, "Junior brother, have you ever paid your respects to the master when he came back?"
"Well! The master has reported that he is safe. He said that the two senior brothers are cooking, so he asked me to come over and meet you first, and then I will go back to play chess with him~" Weiming said.
Gu Yuexuan nodded and said: "In that case, junior brother, please go and accompany the master first. When the meal is ready, we senior brothers will chat at the dinner table."
"Well~ Then I will go and accompany the master first."
After saying that, Weiming waved to Gu Yuexuan and Jingjia, then ran out of the kitchen and went straight to his master Wu Xiazi's study.
