Poor monk is awesome

Chapter 28

There is a hint of cold in the autumn air, and the leaves on the mountain have been quietly soaked in mature golden color.

Jiu Jie hugged the rabbit and stepped on the fallen leaves on the mountain road, making crisp sounds under his feet.

Jiu Jie thought about going to Xunfang City first, because Bai Su and Bai Xin, who were sent away by Wei Wuxian for temporary refuge, would return to Xunfang City in ten days as agreed, and he had promised Wei Wuxian before his death To take care of the two of them, I had to go to Xunfang City first.

Thinking of Wei Wuxian, Jiu Jie couldn't help but feel a little melancholy. It would be great if he didn't die.

Speaking of which, Wei Wuxian and Huang Tianci are the only friends that Jiujie met after going down the mountain.Now that Huang Tianci's whereabouts are unknown and Wei Wuxian is dead, Jiu Jie feels very uncomfortable thinking about it.

Just when Jiu Jie was walking on the road with a heavy heart, two woodcutters came walking in the distance in front of him on the mountain road. Both of them were carrying baskets, wearing black coats, and holding woodcutters. , chatting without a sentence.

"Hey, this autumn is really cold! There are many strange things." One of the woodcutters said.

"Yeah, this year is really strange. When Zhou Dazhuang got up in the latrine a few nights ago, he saw red thunder flashing in the sky. Even the moon turned red." Another woodcutter suddenly lowered his head. The voice stopped and said, "I heard... Zhou Dazhuang also saw a red dragon flying in the sky! You don't think it's evil."

"Hey, you just listen to his nonsense, that guy can't tell the truth in three shots, I'm afraid Zhou Dazhuang didn't go to the latrine at night, but went to peek at Widow Liu taking a bath at night!" The woodcutter who had just started talking sneered. Dao, speaking in a narrow voice.

"Haha, if you want to take a peek, you won't peek at Widow Liu! You should also go to the Earth Temple to peek at the little girl Wang Yatou picked up. That little girl is really handsome, just like the fairy who walked out of the painting." It's the first time I, Old Wang, have seen such a beautiful girl." The woodcutter called Lao Wang said in amazement.

"Hey, that's right, you don't know that when Miss Wang carried the unconscious little girl in red back, Zhou Dazhuang's eyes stared straight at him, and that lazy man went to the Earth Temple three times a day as if he had lost his temper. You are so kind to go to the doctor to see the little girl." Another woodcutter gestured with one hand, and spit out his saliva when he spoke.

"It's just a pity that I don't know what strange disease the girl has. She is cold all over. The doctor in the village has seen her a few times and can't find anything wrong. She has been in a coma for a few days and has not woken up. If it wasn't for the girl Wang who picked her up Come back, I guess I will die on that mountain." Wang Qiaofu shook his head and said regretfully.

"I heard from Mrs. Tiger that the girl has encountered something unclean, which is unlucky, so a group of older women are arguing to throw her out of the village every day. Fortunately, the girl Wang carried her to the Earth Temple again. That’s why I let her stay.” Another woodcutter said mysteriously, “You said, the girl’s illness is so strange, could it really be…”

"Don't listen to those old women talking nonsense, they just like to gossip." Wang Qiaofu didn't believe these things at all.

"That... the two of you."

Jiu Jie suddenly appeared in front of the two woodcutters and asked eagerly

"I don't know where the little girl in red you are talking about is now?"

Jiu Jie is a monk, his hearing is far superior to that of ordinary people, and he can clearly hear the conversation of two woodcutters from a long distance. When he heard the two woodcutters talk about the little girl in red, Jiu Jie's first reaction was to think of himself The little girl I kissed at the gate of Xunfang City, the little daughter-in-law I have been looking for!
My little daughter-in-law is sick?Jiu Jie became anxious immediately, and in a few breaths, he came to the two woodcutters, wanting to ask about his little daughter-in-law.

The two woodcutters were stunned when they saw the young man who appeared in front of them, because the young man holding a purple rabbit was dressed very well, wearing a sapphire crown, a purple black robe, and a pair of gold-studded long robes on his feet. Boots, with extraordinary-looking rings on all ten fingers, coupled with fair skin and handsome appearance, at a glance, he looks very luxurious, like a son of a big family in the city, appearing in the wild mountain forest here, It's amazing.

Neither of the two woodcutters could guess Jiu Jie's identity. They only said that he was a noble man. They seemed very reserved for a moment. Then Woodcutter Wang asked carefully.

"I don't know... where does this... er... young master come from?"

"I'm from Xunfang City, looking for my little daughter-in-law, oh, that's the little girl in red you mentioned." Jiu Jie replied hastily.

"Oh~ So that girl belongs to the son, she seems to be sick, and she is in our village now."

The two woodcutters looked at each other with the original expression.

They guessed that Jiujie was the son of a rich family in Xunfang City, and the little girl in red should be the son's adopted woman or concubine or something. As for why she fainted on the mountain, isn't that the case for the wealthy families in this city? ?There are a bunch of women in the backyard fighting each other every day, maybe the little girl in red was the one who lost the fight, and was killed by other women in the son's family.

This young man would go out of the city alone to find her in this cold weather. It seems that he really likes her, and he is also a kind and righteous seed of affection!

The two woodcutters looked at Jiu Jie with admiration, which confused Jiu Jie.

"Could you please take me to your village?" Jiu Jie didn't care about the meaning of their eyes, but continued to ask.

"Yes, yes, of course." Wang Qiaofu nodded quickly.

"You are welcome, sir. His name is Wang Qing, and my name is Sun Dahe. We are all villagers from Wangjia Village five miles down the mountain." The woodcutter named Sun Dahe pointed to Wang Qing and then to himself to introduce to Jiujie. road.

"Thank you, Brother Wang and Brother Sun." Jiu Jie thanked, reached into his bosom and pretended to take something, then took out a handful of gold beads from the storage ring, took them out from his bosom, and handed them to the two woodcutters.

From the understanding of Jiu Jie, mortals in the world should like this kind of gold, silver, jewelry and other property very much. If they are willing to take themselves to find a young wife, then I can give them a handful of gold beads to thank them. There are also many in the storage ring.

However, Jiu Jie didn't know it. What seemed insignificant to him, in the eyes of Wang Qing and Du Dahe, was a huge wealth that they had never seen in their entire lives.

Gold!Still a handful of gold beads!How much is this worth!
The two woodcutters were shocked when they saw the handful of gold beads that Jiu Jie took out.

"Gudu!"

Both of them couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva, unable to believe it was true.

"This... is this for us?" Sun Dahe's voice trembled a little.

"That's right, you lead me the way, this is my reward!" Jiu Jie felt that their reaction was too exaggerated, nodded and said.

Sun and Wang could not help but look at each other again, both of them could see the surprise and exclamation in each other's eyes.

There is so much gold in one trip, the son in this city is too generous!
