The children on the mountain were very curious about the new boy. As the news of the incident spread like wildfire, the children and the boys who admired their boss all knew that the new boy was an ignorant boy who spoke freely.
"Hey, what do you think that person is doing hiding in the house all day long?" Some curious children would ask curiously every time they passed by that house.
"I feel so shameless now. I dared to call Thirteenth Niang that way. Thirteenth Niang was already burning incense and worshiping Buddha without stabbing her to death. She still had the shame to stay in the village."
Some children learned the details from the protagonist, Thirteenth Niang, and said that a young man saw them as bandits seeking money and murder, so he acted righteously. He not only insulted Thirteenth Niang but also attacked Thirteenth Niang. The result can be imagined.
, Thirteenth Niang stabbed him in the chest with a sword. The reason why Thirteenth Niang didn’t kill him was because that little girl paid for it with her own life. It was really embarrassing and was thrown into her grandma’s house.
.
What came out of Thirteenth Niang’s mouth was more factual than what those big bosses said. What to say, she fought Thirteenth Niang for three hundred rounds, forced Thirteenth Niang back a few steps, and finally lost to Thirteenth Niang’s sword.
.Shit, it’s all shit. Those big bosses should take a lesson from them, work hard, and practice martial arts well.
"Hey, you bastards out there, don't hide away. Just do what you want to do. Mr. Military Advisor said that even an ugly daughter-in-law should see her parents-in-law."
A young man shouted at the door, throwing a stone in his hand, as if he was thinking about whether to throw it at it, but in the end he gave up. Maybe he felt that bullying a shrunken turtle was not a prestigious thing.
In the room, Chen Mo sat cross-legged, doing hand seals, and felt the flowing Qi in his body. It seemed that the cultivated farmland in his body was much larger, but it was still not what he wanted, but he didn't know what would happen next.
What to do one step at a time, we can only continue to cultivate.
In this state, Chen Mo could go without eating for almost a day without feeling too hungry. Perhaps this is the way of fasting that some people seek.
Over the past few days, almost no one saw the young man coming out of this house. Only people watching at night occasionally saw the young man fetching water from the well next to the house to wash himself. They couldn't help but wonder: This boy really doesn't eat?
In Thirteenth Niang's room, the two of them were like a mother and daughter. Thirteenth Niang cooked two simple dishes. There was not much rice on the mountain, so we couldn't eat it every day. They usually had sweet potatoes, potatoes, taro and the like.
vegetable.
Little Yanyu no longer had the resistance he had when he first arrived at the village. He held a big potato in his hand, took one bite and picked up a dish with chopsticks, his cheeks were bulging, he was very cute.
"You're not worried that he will starve to death." Thirteenth Niang swallowed slowly. She knew that Chen Mo only had one meal in two days. She was a little confused. Shouldn't a person like him who is cultivating his body need to eat more?
, that would be like him doing the opposite.
"He is a tough guy. He used to travel hundreds of miles a day for just one meal. Now he hides all day long and doesn't have a problem without eating for three days." Xiao Yanyu said angrily, seeming to be very dissatisfied with Chen Mo's seclusion.
"He is quite calm. He was pointed at by a group of children and peers without saying a word. If I were at his age, I would have beaten those talkative children to pieces." Thirteenth Niang said.
"Humph." Xiao Yanyu glanced at the culprit. As long as she said something, those children would believe it.
"He is just a heartless guy. If those words could have seriously injured him, he would have died countless times under my words."
"How do you know each other?" Thirteenth Niang asked suddenly out of curiosity. One's surname is Chen and the other's surname Yan. They should not be brother and sister. Moreover, their conversation did not match that of brother and sister. One is taciturn and the other is sharp-tongued. How did they get there?
together.
"I won't tell you."
"If you don't tell me, there won't be any food for you in the next meal." Thirteenth Niang threatened.
"If you don't have it, you won't have it. I've long been used to having one meal but no next meal." Xiao Yanyu looked like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water.
.....
Chen Mo lives in seclusion, while Xiao Yanyu wanders around with Shisanniang every day. After seeing the world, he is already very familiar with the village, and even if he walks alone, he will not get lost.
People in the village are also preparing food for the coming cold winter. Occasionally, you can see adults bringing back wild goods from the forest, cutting and cleaning them, chopping them into pieces, and then hanging them under the eaves of the stilted building to be cured for winter use.
Food, after all, in the winter, not only people don’t want to move, but even the animals stay in their nests and don’t want to come out.
"Hey, Xiaoyu, why don't you go and play? Brother Daneng caught a beautiful bird." A passing child said to Yan Yu.
"My name is not Xiaoyu." Xiao Yanyu glared at the child. Yanyu originally had no objection to the nickname "Xiaoyu", just like the little boy called her in the reed marsh.
After speaking, she became disgusted. When the people here heard Thirteenth Niang calling her like this, they also followed her in a decent manner, which was annoying to death.
"What do you call it if you don't call it Xiaoyu?" the child asked innocently.
"Go away." Xiao Yanyu said angrily.
"Just leave, no matter what." The child made a face at Xiao Yanyu and ran away.
"What are you doing following me all day long? Why don't you just play with me?" Shisanniang said to Xiao Yanyu as she watched the children go away with a smile.
"childish."
"How old are you, are you not naive?" Thirteenth Niang asked back. "Why are you pretending... Hmm~ How do you say that word? Why are you so angry?"
"Old-fashioned."
"Little girl, you know a lot."
........
"Come on, Xiaoyu, Aunt Li has helped you change your clothes. You have been wearing thin clothes all day long. I wonder if Chen Mo won't buy you a thicker one." Thirteenth Niang held up a piece of clothes that had been changed.
Comparing in front of Xiao Yanyu, "It should fit, put it on and have a look. Although it is made from my old clothes, as long as it can keep you warm."
"Why don't you let us go?" Xiao Yanyu, who was being manipulated like a puppet, suddenly asked.
"Admit your bet and admit defeat," Thirteenth Niang said calmly.
"Even if he were in the mountains, he wouldn't do those things for you."
"How do you know she won't do it?"
"I won't give it."
"Will he listen to you? Okay." Thirteenth Niang helped her get dressed. "This will keep her warm."
Xiao Yanyu didn't speak. She and Chen Mo had been walking together for so long, and Chen Mo really didn't listen to her many times.
"Also, how do you know he doesn't want to stay here?"
Listening to what Thirteenth Niang said, it was true that Chen Mo never said he wanted to leave here. He said it himself, and he didn't say whether he would agree or not. Of course, this may be because he cherishes words like gold.
"If he wants to become stronger, he needs to constantly challenge opponents who are stronger than him. I don't know why there are so many people on Black Tiger, why they just picked me. Maybe it's fate, or maybe it's because of my reputation.
"Only I am suitable to be his opponent, but he overestimated himself." Thirteenth Niang sat down and said slowly, but there was another thought in her mind: He just believes that he can't die and can't win against himself, so let me do it.
Whetstone, I am not afraid that his knife will break like the broken knife in his hand. I have to admit that he is really a bold gambler.
"Why do you want to become stronger?"
"You have to ask him about this." Thirteenth Niang patted her shoulder: "Okay, it's late at night, it's time to sleep."
.......
Chen Mo, who was housebound, finally walked out of the room in broad daylight. There was no one guarding him at the door of the room. People in the village were curiously looking at this guy who had been staying in the house for ten days. Could it be that Thirteen
Did that thing really cost this guy half his life?
Of course, people who know him don’t think so, but people who don’t know him think like this: He’s not even dead?
Xiao Yanyu, who was walking with Thirteenth Niang, saw Chen Mo coming out. He jumped up and ran over with joy and said with a smile: "Let me see if you are moldy."
"Wow, this little girl can still laugh?"
This is what everyone who has seen her thinks so, because they have never seen her smile, she keeps a straight face all day long, and she doesn't give anyone a good look.
"You know how to laugh? Why do you keep a straight face when you smile so beautifully?" Thirteenth Niang murmured in the distance.
"It's cold and I don't want to move." Chen Mo touched his head. "You didn't get beaten again?"
Of course Xiao Yanyu didn't believe his first sentence, but she knew what he was asking about the latter sentence.
"I have thick clothes, look."
Xiao Yanyu didn't answer his words, and turned over his collar to reveal the thick clothes underneath.
"Hey, you're a turtle." A young man similar to Chen Mo walked over from a distance with a knife on his shoulder and shouted.
"He's calling you."
Chen Mo said to Xiao Yanyu that this person was walking towards them, of course he was looking for one of them, but he had never seen this person before.
"You're so dumb." Xiao Yanyu stepped on Chen Mo's foot angrily.
Chen Mo said "oh" lightly.
"What qualifications does a man who makes a living by relying on women have to stand next to a woman?" the young man said in an arrogant tone.
"Are you talking about me?" Chen Mo glanced at him.
Xiao Yanyu rolled her eyes at him.
"Xiaoyu, you will be my wife from now on. You, a loser, stay away from him." The young man stood ten feet away from the two of them.
Chen Mo looked at Xiao Yanyu with a question mark on his face.
"What do you think I'm doing? Do you believe any nonsense I tell you?" Xiao Yanyu stepped on him again.
"If you don't stay away from Xiaoyu, then I will make you suffer and let you lie down for another ten days and a half." The young man put down the big knife on his shoulder and placed it on his waist, as if he was about to draw the knife.
Chen Mo untied the broken blade behind his waist.
Chen Mo removed the knife, and Thirteenth Niang reminded him from a distance: "Don't take the child's words seriously, just take it easy."
"Thirteenth Niang, this is what you said, whoever is capable can marry Xiaoyu." The young man said to Thirteenth Niang.
"I did say that, but it was too early for you to say that."
"In this village, who else but me can beat me? How dare those big men take action against me?"
"Are you done?"
Chen Mo said while holding the knife.
I don’t know when, the little things here attracted many onlookers, big and small.
Some children started to boo.
"Brother Almighty, knock him down."
The young man named Da Neng smiled: "Let you see what a real man is."
After saying that, the young man just drew his sword, and his eyes blurred, as if something passed by him.
The moment the young man drew his sword, Chen Mo moved. He drew his sword and passed by the young man. The sword in his hand was enough.
After putting away the knife, Chen Mo looked at Thirteenth Niang, "I want to go out for a walk."
Thirteenth Niang didn't speak and nodded casually.
"I'll go too." Xiao Yanyu pretended to run over.
"Stay here."
The young man had no idea what had just happened. After being stunned, he realized that his cheeks were burning and something hot was flowing out of his cheeks.
Seeing Chen Mo turn over and leave the village, Thirteen Niang said to Xiao Yanyu, "Why don't you go for a walk?"
