Wang Tiezhu didn't react for a moment after hearing this, but followed the woman's gaze and looked down.
Only then did he realize that his clothes were damaged when he was fighting the blue-scaled arowana, and he found a piece of green leaf to wrap himself around.
My current half-dressed appearance is indeed a bit unsightly, especially when there are two people of the opposite sex opposite me.
"Ahem, that..."
Wang Tiezhu clenched his fist and put it to his mouth and coughed lightly, "My brother and I were traveling through the woods in the south. We encountered a bear during the trip. Fortunately, we both escaped with our lives."
behind.
Shang Liuliu, who was running nearby, felt embarrassed when he heard this. He folded his hands unconsciously in front of his lower abdomen, "Brother Wang and I are disheveled. We didn't do it intentionally. Please ask Madam
Don't be angry."
Hearing this, the black cotton woman's white eyes slowly turned half a circle, her gaze shifted from Wang Tiezhu's unnatural face to Shang Liuliu's face, then she nodded slightly and put the knife back into its sheath.
.
"Li Er, Li San, lend them the spare clothes you brought."
Seeing that their leader had put away his knife, the other three also put away their weapons.
The burly man with stubble and the young man in linen clothes each responded, turned around, walked behind a clump of weeds, and took out two large bundles.
When passing by the little girl who was carrying her body on his back, the bearded man even reached out and flicked her forehead, then turned her head back straight.
Later.
The two men carried the baggage, walked up to Wang Tiezhu and Shang Liuliu, and pushed the baggage towards them.
The big man with a stubble on his face stared at his round eyes and said: "There are clothes and pants inside, change them quickly, don't even think about seducing my girl."
Wang Tiezhu was speechless for a while after hearing this, and thought to himself that your sister is not a fairy. As for meeting someone, do you think that they are interested in her?
A little too confident?
But he still said honestly: "Thank you, big brother."
The bearded man looked a little impatient, waved his hand, turned around and left.
Wang Tiezhu carried his baggage and walked behind the tree to change his clothes and trousers when he saw the bearded man turning back. As soon as he got closer, he took out something like a fire fold and handed it to him.
"This is what our leader gave you. It contains ointment made from cow's fat. It has a very good effect on whether it's a sore or a blister on a wound."
Wang Tiezhu was stunned for a second, and then he suddenly remembered the blisters on his legs burned by the venom in the belly of the blue electric eel.
When I looked down again, I saw that although Liaopao was a little smaller and had become the size of a bean sprout, it still looked quite disgusting.
Wang Tiezhu subconsciously wanted to refuse the stranger's kindness, but the big man who handed him the ointment was obviously very impatient. He pushed the ointment into his arms and turned away.
"Brother, let me wipe it for you. You should quickly put on your clothes. I found that the further we go outside, the colder the weather becomes. Ah..."
Shang Liuliu, who had already changed his clothes and was wearing straw sandals, quickly took the ointment from Wang Tiezhu's arms and knelt down to apply the ointment to Wang Tiezhu regardless of whether he wanted it or not.
"Eh..."
Wang Tiezhu subconsciously took a step back. He was still not used to being served by others.
But Shang Liuliu took a step closer and continued to apply medicine to Wang Tiezhu.
In this case, you can only accept the other party's kindness.
Wang Tiezhu opened the bag and took out a short jacket made of fox fur, with a pair of baggy cotton trousers underneath. He stepped on the wet grass with his bare feet, feeling warm all over, but not cold at all.
After the two of them finished cleaning up.
When Wang Tiezhu walked to the fire, he saw Shang Liuliu stuffing the remaining ointment into his arms, and then flew to the edge of the fire like an arrow. A sudden howl attracted the attention of everyone present.
"Ouch, my barbecue is burnt here."
When he heard that the barbecue was burnt, Yan Yan, who was standing with his back to the crowd and covering his face, turned around and ran to the fire with an ouch, and saw that the legs of the roasted golden rabbit were burnt.
There was a strange smell of coke.
So one person's howling turned into two people howling together.
"Oh, it's all your fault. You should have turned it over just now."
"Blame me? Didn't you suddenly run out? My brother and I don't know whether you are good guys or bad guys, so why don't we hide for a while?"
While Shang Liuliu and Yan Yan were bickering, they took out a stone knife and cut off most of the burnt rabbit legs.
Wang Tiezhu sat down next to the fire, looking calmly at the dancing flames in front of him, and then looked up at the skinny rabbit, thinking that this rabbit must not be enough to eat.
Although with his current level of cultivation, he would be fine if he didn't eat or drink, but after entering this space crack, his spiritual power was blocked and his feeling of hunger and cold became more sensitive.
Beside the fire, the woman in black cotton robe slashed Yan Yan with a knife.
immediately.
Yan Yan quickly shut up, her little face wrinkled up, but she didn't dare to speak anymore.
"Brother, why are you going through this forest? Don't you know that this forest and the entire mountain are dangerous?" the woman in black cotton robe asked Wang Tiezhu.
Hearing this, Shang Liuliu was the first to reply: "I am a candidate taking the exam this time. My brother was originally going to accompany me. I was in a hurry and wanted to go through the forest and take a shortcut. Unexpectedly,
I haven’t even left the province yet, and I almost risked my life here.”
There was a hint of melancholy in Shang Liuliu's words, and the movements of turning the roast rabbit in his hands were also slower.
The girl next to her, Yan Yan, looked displeased and immediately grabbed the branch and carefully turned over the roasted rabbit.
Shang Liuliu retracted his hand angrily, walked to sit next to Wang Tiezhu, held his chin up and stared at the dancing flames, his eyes were dim, filled with regrets and regrets.
Wang Tiezhu reached out and patted Shang Liuliu on the shoulder.
He knew that these scholars were very hard-working. Some of them spent half their lives working for fame, and in the end they only got a small official. Or, in the end, they only served as an official for a few days and were dismissed and demoted. There were countless examples.
"Then you may not be able to catch up. The candidates from our village should have taken the boat to the imperial capital by now." The Azabu youth who had been silent until now made a muffled sound to attack Shang Liuliu.
Shang Liuliu was choked and thought, why do you need to say this?
"My brother has always been very good at studying. Even if he takes the exam in a few years, he will definitely pass the exam." Wang Tiezhu noticed Shang Liuliu's increasingly negative mood, reached out and patted his bowed back, with a firm tone.
.
Shang Liuliu sniffed and rubbed his sore eyes. He had been working hard to become stronger since he was young...
Alas, I didn’t expect that one misstep would lead to eternal regret.
When I went back, I had to have my buttocks stabbed again, and I was mentally stressed for several years.
"Madam, I would like to ask you, what is the name of the forest on this mountain? When we escaped, we found that the leaves and trunks inside were very strange, and they did not look like they existed in an ordinary forest." Wang Tiezhu asked curiously.
The black cotton woman smiled and said, "You don't know anything, so you dare to go into the forest to seek death?"
