"Why are you here?" Chen Xiao looked at Ke Ke who was trying hard to climb up, and reached out to give her a hand. Ke Ke responded with a gentle smile, she hugged her legs, curled up next to Chen Xiao, and said with a smile
: "Brother Chen, what are you thinking about? I found that you especially like to sit quietly on the roof alone!"
"Well, I like this feeling!" Chen Xiao nodded.
"Hehe, I like it too!" Ke Ke said with a smile: "I also like to sit on the roof alone and watch the stars and the moon. The air in the city is very turbid, and you can't see such a beautiful starry sky at all."
"Yeah!" Chen Xiao smiled and said, "This is also the reason why I went deep into western Hunan."
"How long does Brother Chen plan to stay in Xiangxi?" Ke Ke asked curiously.
"I'm afraid I have to leave here and go somewhere else tomorrow!" Chen Xiao said with a smile.
"Ah?" Ke Ke was stunned and said, "He's about to leave? Isn't Brother Chen looking for something mysterious? You haven't seen the old man in our village yet. I took a look outside his house today, and it seemed like
Now that you're out, why don't you wait a few more days?"
"No need!" Chen Xiao smiled.
"Well, now that Brother Chen has decided, I won't advise you anymore!" Ke Ke was a little reluctant to leave. Brother Chen will leave tomorrow, and maybe today is the last night for the two of them to get along. Suddenly, Ke Ke discovered
My feelings for Chen Xiao have become a bit heavy. It has only been three or four days. The two were just strangers when they met, but now they are so familiar.
The two of them sat quietly on the roof, carefully looking at the bright starry sky and the wonderful starry sky. What a pity it would be if we could not appreciate such a beautiful starry sky in life?
The next day, Chen Xiao took his luggage and left this small mountain village without disturbing anyone. He left at about five o'clock in the morning. He did not want to bear the enthusiasm of the Ke family, let alone Ke Ke's resentful eyes.
Wearing light sportswear, carrying a backpack, and wearing a black peaked cap, Chen Xiao embarked on his journey. This time, Chen Xiao decided to walk on foot like a penance, relying on a compass with a compass.
A mobile phone, and a power bank with solar charging function. A monk who has not experienced ascetic training is not a true monk.
When Ke Ke got up in the morning, she found that Chen Xiao's room had been tidied up. She found a note on the table with a line of clear writing on it: Ke Ke, thank you and your whole family for these things.
A treat from heaven. You are a good girl and you will surely find a man who loves you.
Looking at this piece of paper, Ke Ke suddenly cried out,
How can you understand the heart of a girl? I only hope that the wind and sand in the air can convey my missing for you; I only hope that I can live in this air together and let you understand that I miss you. Ke Ke cried very sadly
, as if he was lovelorn. As Ke Ke's father, he could not understand his daughter's behavior, but his mother seemed to understand it very well. She was comforting Ke Ke, but it made Ke Ke cry even more sadly.
Chen Xiao, who decided to practice hard training, had already walked a long way. He was thinking about the pace of his master Chang Tian. He could step more than ten meters with one foot in the void. For such speed, Chen Xiao
He had always been very envious that now in such a deserted place, he could finally show off his skills. He tried to focus all his internal strength on his feet, but as soon as he took a step, he fell completely.
"Fuck, why can Chang Tian do it but I can't?" Chen Xiao was very puzzled. Was there anything wrong with what he did? Looking back on the feeling just now, it seemed that he was a little top-heavy and had no sense of balance at all. Chen Xiao thought about it again and again.
, decided to do it again. He concentrated on his feet again, and then tried to step out slowly, as if he had the feeling of a baby learning to take steps. However, it felt good, walking the baby steps again, and experiencing the experience of being a human being.
Parents' feelings.
One step does not take two steps, two steps does not take ten steps. After some grinding and hard work, Chen Xiao found that his step in the void seemed to have a different look, at least it would not fall into pieces like it did at the beginning.
At least he could step out in a dangling way. One step should be at least four or five meters, right? The speed was quite fast, and Chen Xiao felt happy. He found that it felt really good to take a leisurely stroll at such a speed.
Fortunately, there are no passers-by in this mountain forest. Otherwise, seeing Chen Xiao would be like seeing a ghost. He fell down again and again, and he was swaying as he walked. The most important thing is that this guy looked like a shadow.
It was several meters away, sometimes faster and sometimes slower. In the blink of an eye, this guy had gone very far, and only his back could be seen.
After driving for about two hours, Chen Xiao arrived at a small town. According to the signs, this should be Chenjia Town, which is full of original Miaojia atmosphere. The transportation here is not very convenient, so most of the people in this town are
It was the nearby Miao people who were going to the market here. Most people were full of curiosity about the unfamiliar face of Chen Xiao, and many people looked at Chen Xiao in surprise. Chen Xiao walked alone, not caring about other people's eyes.
"Wow, my child, my child!" At this moment, a middle-aged woman in front of her hugged her fainting child and yelled at the top of her lungs in the town.
"Aunt Zhang, what's going on?" the woman on the side asked hurriedly.
"My baby suddenly fainted today!" Aunt Zhang cried.
"Then go find the doctor quickly!" A group of people immediately gathered around, most of them were acquaintances, so everyone was more concerned. Aunt Zhang suddenly reacted, picked up the child and ran to the medical clinic in the small town. Chen
Xiao also followed him curiously, because he saw that the child's illness was the same as that of his wife last time. So, he was a little curious.
The clinic in the small town was not far away, just a few hundred meters away. After Aunt Zhang ran away with the person in her arms, the crowd did not disperse.
"Alas, Aunt Zhang's family has a hard life. Her husband died early, and she is dependent on this child."
"Yeah, if this baby dies, she probably won't have any idea of living!"
A group of people seemed particularly sympathetic to Aunt Zhang's family's plight. Chen Xiao stopped listening after a few words and followed Aunt Zhang into the clinic. After a doctor in a white coat made a diagnosis, he could not come to a conclusion.
. He sighed and said: "Aunt Zhang, there is nothing I can do. I checked and the child seems to be fine. Maybe the equipment here is not up to standard. There is no other way but to go to a big hospital for a check-up!"
"Ah?" Aunt Zhang was immediately lost. She sobbed: "Can I make it in time to go back to the big hospital? It takes a few hours to go there. I'm afraid of the child..."
"Oh, it's a small place with limited medical capabilities!" The doctor in white coat said helplessly.
"Go find that Master Liu!" An old lady who was seeing a doctor on the side said hurriedly: "I guess this child must have been stained with something dirty, that's why he is like this. Maybe Master Liu can take good care of it!"
"Yes!" Aunt Zhang's eyes lit up, she hugged the child and ran out. The doctor in white coat was just about to say a few words, but he quickly swallowed the words that came to his mouth. He seemed a little helpless. Chen Xiao said this
Everything was seen, and he followed him out of curiosity. As a foreigner, no one would care about Chen Xiao's existence.
Aunt Zhang, a middle-aged woman, ran quickly with a ten-year-old child in her arms. This was really difficult for her. Soon, she passed through a small alley and found the so-called Master Liu, who was from the town.
A slightly famous wizard. As a wizard, it was originally a good thing for him to solve problems for the villagers. However, in recent years, with the progress of anti-feudal and anti-superstition, Master Liu began to have no food.
"Master Liu, save my child!" Aunt Zhang shouted before she even entered the door.
Master Liu was an old man in his fifties. He was wearing a Miao ethnic coat and had a dark face. He was holding a book and reading. Suddenly he heard someone shouting. He hurriedly put down the book and walked out. He saw Aunt Zhang hugging him.
As the child came in, he hurriedly asked: "What's going on?"
"Master Liu, please save my baby. My baby has been twitching all over and foaming at the mouth since he woke up early in the morning. I...I don't know what's going on!" Aunt Zhang turned pale with anxiety.
"Let me take a look!" Master Liu looked up and down hurriedly, his face darkened, and he said: "You have been put under a spell."
"A spell?" Aunt Zhang didn't exclaim, but Chen Xiao on the side exclaimed. Could this spell and Zhang Niupi's wife's spell be made by the same person? Chen Xiao was a little curious. Master Liu hurriedly asked: "Have you done anything recently?
Have you met any foreigners?"
"Yes, an old man came here last night!" Aunt Zhang said hurriedly: "He wanted to come to my house to stay overnight. You said I am a widow, how can I let a man stay at my house easily? What if this spreads out? So I
Rejected. But, it shouldn’t matter much, right?”
"No, maybe you have met an expert!" Master Liu waved his hand hurriedly, with a solemn expression on his face, and said: "If it is a corpse exterminator, it will be even more troublesome."
"Ah?!" Aunt Zhang suddenly exclaimed. At this time, she regretted a little. If she had ruined her reputation by letting that old man stay overnight yesterday, it would be fine, but now she is ruining her life. Aunt Zhang begged.
: "Master Liu, you must save my baby's life!"
"I'll try my best!" Master Liu nodded helplessly. Faced with Aunt Zhang's plea, I believe no one can refuse. A poor widow has devoted herself to raising her son, and now her son suddenly becomes like this. I believe in her heart
He must have been under tremendous pressure. Master Liu took out all his magical weapons and started practicing the ritual. There are some differences between the Miao Celestial Masters and the Maoshan Taoist priests, but their folk arts are similar in quality and minor differences.
