The cold wind in the middle of the night was biting to the bone.
The heavy snow that was falling was getting heavier and heavier.
Xiao Nan and Hua Luoxue simply found a cave with leeward wind, found some dry firewood, and built a bonfire in the cave.
Then Xiao Nan went out to catch a hare and returned to the entrance of the cave. Hua Luoxue used her spiritual power to melt a pile of snow into water. Xiao Nan peeled and washed it, and finally blocked the entrance of the cave, leaving only a small vent.
Then he put the hare on the fire and grilled it.
The blazing bonfire made both of their faces turn red.
Soon, bursts of attractive fragrance floated up, and the smell made your whole body feel comfortable.
At this time, Xiao Nan took out some colorful bottles and jars from the storage ring, and evenly sprinkled some of the powder contained in the bottles and jars on the rabbit meat, and the fragrance suddenly became stronger.
Hua Luoxue smelled the fragrance, took a sip of saliva, and said softly: "Brother Xiao, the last time we roasted flamingo birds in the Shuiyun Abyss, it seems like a long time ago."
Xiao Nan smiled and said: "Whenever I have free time in the future, I will cook barbecue for you."
"Yeah." Hua Luoxue suddenly became happy, with a slight smile hanging on the corner of her mouth.
Soon after, a hare was completely eaten by them. The two of them sat quietly by the fire, back to back, and began to rest.
"Brother Xiao, do you feel cold?" Hua Luoxue asked suddenly, her voice like a mosquito.
When Xiao Nan heard Hua Luoxue's words, she lit a bonfire to make the fire brighter. Then she changed her position, letting Hua Luoxue lie on her knees, and then gently stroked her back.
Hua Luoxue turned her head and looked at the bonfire quietly, feeling peaceful and happy in her heart, and fell asleep soon after.
When Xiao Nan heard Hua Luoxue's even breathing, she narrowed her eyes and took a nap.
While in a daze, Xiao Nan suddenly heard a burst of intermittent whispers coming from outside the cave, and immediately woke up.
He glanced at Hua Luoxue, placed her gently on the ground, then stood up and tiptoed to the entrance of the cave, looked out from the small vent, and listened carefully at the same time.
"Master, my junior sister and I found out clearly. That woman was bullied again by the bully who occupied her until she passed out in the evening. When she woke up at night, she found that her newborn son had also been strangled to death by the bully. She then
He chopped the sleeping bully into pieces with a sickle, and then set a fire to burn down all the bully's houses. He also lost his mind and went crazy." A young woman's voice sounded.
Upon hearing the woman's words, a charming and charming figure appeared in Xiao Nan's eyes, Peony Fairy Chang Yun.
"That's it." A middle-aged woman's voice responded.
Xiao Nan recognized that this was the voice of Fairy Yunfu, the master of Fairy Peony.
"Master, that woman's experience was so miserable. Anyone who has experienced the inhumane torture she suffered would have a hard time not going crazy!" Another young woman said angrily.
Xiao Nan also recognized that it was the voice of Fairy Peony's junior sister Xia Yao.
It turned out that it was Yunfu Fairy, master and apprentice, who were hiding from the wind and snow outside.
Fairy Yunfu: "Oh? You and I have nothing to do, so why don't you tell me? It's very windy and snowy at the moment, and we have the back of the wind, so we'll take a rest here."
Fairy Peony and Xia Yao started telling each other sentence by sentence, just passing the time in this long snowy night.
Xia Yao: "When my senior sister and I saw the fire in the village, we rushed over to take a look. It turned out that a house next to the big tree at the entrance of the village was on fire. The fire was fierce and the smoke was billowing. In front of the house, there was a woman with disheveled hair.
Holding the sickle tightly in his hand, staring at the flames soaring into the sky, speaking incomprehensible words, crying and laughing, looking like a ghost!"
Chang Yun: "When we first saw that woman, my junior sister and I were startled. The sickle shining coldly in the woman's hand was stained with some broken meat and bones, and blood was slowly dripping on her feet.
Bian, obviously he just killed someone."
Xia Yao: "There were many people in the village not far away at that time, pointing and talking, but no one dared to stop the woman, and no one dared to put out the fire. The house just kept burning. The woman was finally thrown away
The sickle rushed into the flames and was burned to ashes by the fire."
Fairy Yunfu: "This woman's experience was so miserable, but it can be regarded as an end to a sin in the world with the billowing flames."
Xia Yao: "Master, there's more! I heard from the villagers that not long after the woman was born twenty years ago, maybe only a few days ago, she got a serious illness. She was very seriously ill. She was almost dead at that time.
She was dying. Her grandfather invited doctors and witches from the village, but after seeing her, they all felt that there was no way to save her."
Fairy Peony: "Yes. Because her mother has been weak for many years and has little milk, she can only cook some thin rice porridge to feed her. Seeing her daughter's condition getting worse, she can do nothing but
She secretly cried with sadness. The witch gave her some incense paper money and asked her mother to take it to the door of her house every night, put incense on the ground, burn the paper money, and pray devoutly, but it had no effect."
Xia Yao: "Her grandfather still did not give up. Finally, he asked the witch for a secret recipe. He needed to find an extremely rare herb. If he found it, there might be a glimmer of hope. In order to save his granddaughter, her grandfather did not hesitate to go alone.
A man went into an inaccessible deep mountain forest, searched on the cliffs, and finally found medicinal herbs. Unfortunately, he was bitten by a ferocious snake. Shortly after returning home, he died of the poison."
Fairy Yunfu: "Mortal life is really fragile sometimes. Isn't it that we, the immortal cultivators, want to get rid of this mortal body and seek the illusory fruit of immortality?"
Peony Fairy: "Her parents endured their grief and followed the witch's secret recipe, dividing the herbs that her grandfather collected from the mountains into seven days' worth, mixed them with the frogs caught from the paddy fields, and made a soup to feed the girl every day.
I ate part of it, and used the rest to mix hot water for her to take a bath. In the end, luck finally came, and her life was saved, and her condition quickly improved."
Xia Yao: "After burying her grandfather, everyone in the village believed that she was the reincarnation of a disaster star who would only bring endless disasters to the village in the future, so the whole village held a meeting and decided to bury her alive.
I offer sacrifices to heaven and pray for forgiveness and blessing from the gods, so as not to bring disaster to the village."
Fairy Yunfu: "How many ignorant people are there in the world!"
Fairy Peony: "Her life and death were in the hands of the villagers. Faced with a little life that was less than a month old, they were frightened and fearful that the gods would bring disaster to the village again, but they never showed any mercy.
.That night, her parents took her and wanted to sneak away from the village under the cover of night, but unexpectedly, her house was already surrounded by villagers."
Xia Yao: "Her parents fought desperately with long knives used for hunting in the mountains, and finally escaped from the village, went to a large mountain far away, and hid in a hidden cave. But her father was injured and bleeding.
Duo died not long after. Her mother was so distraught that she buried her father with stones from the cave and built a grave. She sat in silence for three days and three nights without eating or drinking in front of the grave, with tears streaming down her face.
Done."
Fairy Yunfu: "Mortals can't escape the difficulties of seven emotions and six desires after all. When I was young, there were some things that I couldn't let go of. Even now, I still think of them sometimes. It's just that the heat in my heart has turned cold."
Xia Yao: "Master, have you remembered the sad past? The snow is really getting heavier tonight. Fortunately, there is such a place under this cliff to hide for a night, otherwise it would be really uncomfortable."
Fairy Peony: "Junior sister, Master, there is no sad past. Let's continue talking about that crazy woman."
In the cave, Xiao Nan stood motionless at the entrance of the cave, listening quietly.
Hua Luoxue woke up at some point and stood behind Xiao Nan.
