1672. Chapter 1672 Dancing on the tip of a knife five
"Okay, don't provoke me." Ma Xiaoyao waved his hand: "I'll believe you for once, but you have to listen to me. If I find out that you are deceiving me... humph, then you just wait.
Just bear with my boundless anger." The attraction of the gold mine to Ma Xiaoyao was too great. Although he still had some doubts about the beggar girl in his heart, for the sake of cultivation, he was willing to make a bet. Everyone would be happy if he won the bet, but he would be happy if he lost the bet.
Just a waste of time?
"Don't worry, I will definitely honor what I say." At this point, the beggar girl paused: "I'm hungry, get me something to eat."
"You can't do it yourself."
"I won't."
"Then how do you eat at home?"
"Served by servants."
"You...you are really good." Ma Xiaoyao handed over a roasted wolf leg: "Eat it."
"This wolf's legs are cold, please help me warm them up."
"You have a lot of problems..."
"Meat can't be eaten cold, it's not good for your health... Especially now that I'm injured, I should pay more attention to what I eat and drink." The beggar girl said seriously: "You don't want to see my injury getting worse, do you?
You are my bodyguard, I am your employer, you should respect my opinion."
Under the forced request of the beggar girl, Ma Xiaoyao could only set up a fire and roast the cool wolf meat again...
"Okay, now it's warm, you can eat it." Ma Xiaoyao handed the heated wolf legs to the beggar girl, and this time the beggar girl didn't find any fault.
"Zi!"
The beggar girl tore off a piece of wolf meat and put it into her mouth and chewed: "It tastes pretty good. If you can add more seasoning, it will taste even better."
"It's pretty good to be able to eat hot meat in the wilderness, so just be satisfied." Ma Xiaoyao said angrily.
"By the way, I don't know your name yet." The beggar girl suddenly asked.
"My name is Ma Xiaoyao." Ma Xiaoyao did not hide anything, and said his name happily: "What about you, what is your name?"
"Just call me Xiaojiu."
"Xiaojiu? This name is quite strange."
"Okay, I'm full and can go on my way." Miss Xiaojiu clapped her hands and stood up: "Let's go, take me home."
"Wait a moment." Ma Xiaoyao took out a long piece of cloth from the storage ring, wrapped the remaining wolf meat, and then put it into the storage ring.
"You still want to carry all this wolf meat?" Miss Xiao Jiu frowned: "The weather is so hot now. In less than a day, the wolf meat will go bad and become unedible."
"Don't worry, you won't be given these wolf meat to eat." Ma Xiaoyao curled his lips indifferently: "Tell me, which direction are you going?"
Miss Xiaojiu glanced at Ma Xiaoyao with disdain: "A country bumpkin is a country bumpkin, and he can't bear to throw away even this bit of wolf meat." Before Ma Xiaoyao could get angry, Miss Xiaojiu raised her feet and ran towards the northeast: "Hurry up,
Keep up!"
"You actually called me a country bumpkin?" Ma Xiaoyao snorted: "That's really unreasonable!" Ma Xiaoyao quickly caught up and gave Miss Xiaojiu a vivid "ideological education lesson."
…
The weather in the prairie really changes at a moment's notice. One moment it was sunny and windy, with no clouds in the sky. The next moment it suddenly changed, with strong winds, lightning and thunder, and then there was heavy rain.
Ma Xiaoyao released his true energy and set up a protective shield around his body. No matter how strong the rain was, no one could get close to Ma Xiaoyao.
Compared with Ma Xiaoyao, Miss Xiaojiu looked much more embarrassed. She was only an acquired eighth-level warrior and could not release her true energy at all, so she was unfortunately soaked in the heavy rain and turned into a drowned rat.
"I can't, I'm so cold." Miss Xiao Jiu hugged her shoulders with both hands, her body kept shaking.
"Hold on a little longer, and it won't be cold when the rain stops." Ma Xiaoyao said carelessly.
"I can't hold on anymore, I really can't hold on anymore."
"What should we do?"
"Give me...find a place to take shelter from the rain..."
"Shelter from the rain? This is a prairie. Where can I find a place to take shelter from the rain?"
"I don't care... you quickly find a way... I'm really cold... so cold..." Miss Xiao Jiu shivered and squatted on the ground: "I'm freezing to death..."
"Why are you running out so well? You're just looking for death!" Ma Xiaoyao cursed: "You're not very capable, so just stay at home and don't run around!" At this point, Ma Xiaoyao stepped forward and hugged him all over.
The trembling little girl.
Miss Xiaojiu's face changed: "What are you going to do!"
"I'll help you avoid the rain." Ma Xiaoyao sat cross-legged on the ground, then put Miss Xiao Jiu on his knees, and then used his true energy to wrap up Miss Xiao Jiu, so that the rain could no longer come close.
Little girl is here.
"Put me down..." Miss Xiaojiu struggled slightly.
"Do you think I am willing to hold you?" Ma Xiaoyao pouted: "My cultivation level is low, and the distance I can release my true energy is limited. You must stay close to me so that I can help you protect you from the wind and rain. If you don't want to be held by me,
If so, then I will let you go, but in this case, I will no longer be able to take care of you."
"You..." Miss Xiao Jiu glared at Ma Xiaoyao fiercely: "You are a scoundrel! You will take advantage of me!"
"Who took advantage of you? Can you have some conscience?" Ma Xiaoyao was unhappy: "I helped you shield yourself from the wind and rain with good intentions. Not only did you not thank me, you also accused me. Is this justified?"
"Did I owe you in my previous life? I will be tortured by you in this life... Ah Sneeze..." Miss Xiaojiu sneezed suddenly, and then she felt her head began to feel heavy: "I feel so uncomfortable..."
"Do you feel uncomfortable? You don't have a cold, right?" Ma Xiaoyao frowned.
Facts have proved that Ma Xiaoyao's crow's mouth was right. After the heavy rain stopped, Miss Xiaojiu started to have a high fever. She could stay awake at first, but after a while she started to feel confused and even talked about it.
Nonsense: "It's not that easy if you want to kill me! When I go back, see how I deal with you... I feel so uncomfortable... so uncomfortable... Mom, Xiaojiu misses you so much... I miss you so much... Why do you
Leave me alone...why...why do you do this to my...mother..."
"What a sin!" Ma Xiaoyao cursed bitterly: "I have made such a burden, and the next life will definitely be difficult."
…
Two days later.
Ma Xiaoyao finally walked out of the prairie with the sleepy little girl on his back. Seeing the villages in front of him, Ma Xiaoyao felt relieved. He reached out and patted the little girl: "Hey, don't sleep, we
Already out of the prairie."
"Oh, is that so... I really walked out of the prairie..." Miss Xiao Jiu raised her head and glanced around with her sleepy eyes.
"There are several villages ahead, let's go there to have a rest." Before Miss Xiaojiu could reply, Ma Xiaoyao carried her towards the village.
There are five or six villages dozens of meters away from the prairie. The houses are dilapidated and the roads are rugged. It can be seen that these villages are not very wealthy. What puzzles Ma Xiaoyao the most is... there is not a single person in these villages.
silhouette.
"Is anyone here?"
"Is there anyone?"
"Hey! Is there anyone there!!!"
Ma Xiaoyao shouted several times at the top of his lungs, but in the end he didn't get any response.
"Stop shouting, the people here have disappeared long ago." Miss Xiaojiu, who was lying on Ma Xiaoyao's back, suddenly said: "This is right at the intersection of two big countries. As far as I know, in the past few years, the two countries have
A big country often goes to war, and these villages will definitely be harmed by the war, and in the end they have to move away in order to survive."
"You know quite a lot."
"The more you pay attention to it, the more you will know."
"I'm usually very attentive, but why do I know so few things?"
"Because you are stupid and have a low IQ."
"...Sooner or later I will be pissed off by you."
…
Ma Xiaoyao carried Miss Jiu around the village, and finally chose a relatively clean room to rest.
"Okay, you can rest." Ma Xiaoyao put Miss Jiu on the bed, turned around and left.
"Wait a minute!" Miss Xiao Jiu shouted: "I want to take a bath, please help me boil some hot water." Seeing Ma Xiaoyao frown, Miss Xiao Jiu immediately said: "I am your employer
, you should respect my wishes. Also, I still have a fever and am very weak. Taking a hot bath will help my body recover. Don’t you want me to get better quickly? Don’t you want to carry me on your back all the time?
Are you in a hurry?"
"Okay, stop nagging, I'm going to heat the hot water now! I really regret meeting you!" After saying a few words, Ma Xiaoyao left angrily.
Half an hour later, the hot water was boiled. Ma Xiaoyao specially found a large bucket and put it in the room: "Okay, the hot water is ready, you can take a shower."
"Help me find something to cover the windows."
"What do you mean? Are you worried that I will peek?"
"Yes, I'm just worried that you might peek."
"you……"
"Have you been convinced by what I said? Are you feeling guilty?"
"I have no guilty conscience..."
"If you don't feel guilty, then why is your face red?"
"Damn! I'm so angry with you!"
…
After arguing for a few words, Ma Xiaoyao finally found some rags and blocked the surrounding windows: "Is this okay? Are you satisfied?"
"Just so-so." Miss Xiaojiu nodded noncommittally: "You can go out now, but you are not allowed to come in unless I call you!"
"Huh, even if you call me, I won't come in!" Ma Xiaoyao walked out: "The ancients said: Only villains and women are difficult to raise! This sentence is so right! You women are simply unacceptable
Reasonable!"
After Ma Xiaoyao went out, Miss Xiaojiu took off her dirty clothes and sat in the bucket.
"Hmm..." Miss Xiao Jiu couldn't help but moan softly after being soaked in hot water. She hadn't felt so comfortable for many days. She is a girl who loves beauty and cleanliness. If she didn't have to, she wouldn't pretend to be
