The rivers and lakes are full of local tyrants

After soaking in the hot bath, Huang Daxian's complexion looked better.Mu Hanye leaned against the bed and slowly wiped his chest with medicinal oil.

"I'm fine." Huang Daxian said, "Don't worry."

"Yeah." Mu Hanye helped him fasten his clothes, "Go to sleep."

"Don't want this expression." Huang Daxian looked at him sideways, "It's dark, not like you."

Mu Hanye moved his mouth, originally wanting to tease him as usual, but he couldn't speak for a while.Thinking of his pale face and frowning just now, I felt a pain in my heart.This level is still unacceptable, if something happens in the future, I am afraid that I will pay him even my life.

"I told you I'm fine." Huang Daxian sighed, "I just caught a cold, and I'll be fine tomorrow."

Mu Hanye looked at him for a long time, then gently squeezed his chin, and leaned over to kiss him dearly.

Huang Daxian stroked his side face with one hand, "Sleep well."

Mu Hanye responded, and locked him firmly in his arms.

A crescent moon hangs in the sky, and the stars twinkle, accompanying the whole villa to sleep in silence.

The next morning, Shen Qianling woke up very early. Seeing that the people around him were still sleeping, she reached out and pinched his nose, "Get up!"

Qin Shaoyu frowned and complained, "I used to kiss before."

"Who told you to pretend to be asleep." Shen Qianling stretched vigorously, her belly was so tender.

Qin Shaoyu clicked his tongue, "It's such a blessing early in the morning."

"Boring." Shen Xiaoshou covered his belly, "Put on clothes!"

"What's the rush?" Qin Shaoyu was amused, and stretched out his hand to make him lie on his body, "I didn't see you so diligent before."

"Don't come here to do business." Shen Qianling sat up, "Quickly solve it, so I can go back soon."

"Don't like Baidi Village?" Qin Shaoyu asked.

"Hmm." Shen Qianling said, "I don't know why, but I always feel gloomy. It's also isolated from the world, but the Tianjia Village we met last time is different, where the sunshine is very good every day."

"Tianjia Village is just too remote, but it has not completely cut off contact with the outside world." Qin Shaoyu helped him take off his little gown, "Here, he put himself in a jar, which is naturally different."

"Ling'er." Ye Jin knocked on the door, "It's time to wake up and have breakfast, everyone is waiting."

"It's still early." Shen Xiaoshou quickly put on his clothes, and complained, "We are the last to get up." He said that he was a lazy man, and he was very slow.

"Chirp." In the yard, Fuqiu was squatting on a twig to bask in the sun, its short tail feathers were shining brightly, it was simply beautiful.

Snow Wolf was lying under the tree, with a large plate full of beef jerky in front of him. It was the rations brought by the dark guards for his young palace master, basically a month's supply.

"Chirp!" The hairball little black bean has serious eyes—eat it quickly!

Really domineering.

Frankly speaking, Snow Wolf doesn't like this kind of fully cooked food very much, but he still eats it with his head down, feeling a little...spicy.

The Young Palace Master who grew up in the middle of Sichuan is so uninhibited!

The furball jumped off the branch and lay lazily on top of it.

Very comfortable.

Halfway through breakfast, the patriarch came in through the door with the baby in his arms, and both of them were smiling.

Xiao Pingzi liked Ye Jin very much, and when she saw him, she opened her arms to hug him.

Shen Xiaoshou sighed, his sister-in-law is really very maternal.

"Have you had breakfast?" Ye Jin asked while hugging him.

"I've eaten." The little bottle nodded obediently, and then gave him a small red stone.

"What is this?" Ye Jin spread out his palms to look, and saw that they were round and round, obviously they had been rubbed many times.

"Don't look at it. It's just a stone that's worthless. It's his treasure." The patriarch smiled, "I always hold it in my hand to play with, and don't give it to anyone who wants it. Now I'm willing to take it out, which shows that I really like the owner of the valley."

The little bottle lay on Ye Jin's shoulder, with her small lotus-root-like arms wrapped around his neck.

Ye Jin was amused, and sat at the table hugging her.The dark guard immediately offered peanut candy, but he wanted to eat the small bottle but felt embarrassed, so he buried his face in Ye Jin's arms.

"Chirp!" The fur ball also hopped over to join in the fun, raising its head to scratch.Snow Wolf King lay at Ye Jin's feet, flicking his tail.

The picture is quiet and warm, and under the sunlight, it looks like it is covered with velvet and broken gold.Shen Qianling almost wants to worship his sister-in-law. This kind of halo skill must be praised. Children and small animals like it. It is completely the Virgin Mary!

"Did you rest well last night?" the patriarch said, "The environment in the mountains is difficult, I'm afraid I'll wrong the distinguished guests."

Knowing that the conditions are difficult, then move down the mountain earlier, how nice it is for everyone to be happy together, why bother to stay in Baidi Village.Shen Qianling shook her head in her heart, and then looked at the little bottle who was seriously eating candy, feeling even more unworthy.

"Forgive me." Qin Shaoyu also said, "The conditions in this mountain are really not good."

The patriarch's expression froze. Frankly speaking, he was just being polite, but he didn't expect the other party to be so straightforward.

Shen Xiaoshou silently gave a thumbs up, well said!

"After only one night's sleep, someone fell ill." Qin Shaoyu said, "He's still lying in the room now."

Mu Hanye was in the house feeding Huang Daxian the porridge, and when he went out with the bowl in hand, he heard this sentence, so he said, "Yes, Brother Qin is right."

The rest of the people looked at him with adoring eyes. Did you hear what he was saying? You are right.

Sure enough, they are long-lost brothers, so that's fine.

"I'm really sorry." The patriarch didn't know how to continue, so he could only say carelessly, "But this is already the best house in the mountains."

"I have read some ancient books these days, and they all say that in ancient times, the Baidi's palace was endless. Even standing on the highest hill, it was impossible to see the end at a glance. Every corner is covered with gold and jewels, reflecting the The whole palace is extremely luxurious, regardless of day or night." Qin Shaoyu raised his eyebrows, "It really has the spirit of a king to conquer the world." I didn't say the second half of the sentence, but now you are mixed up like this, and you still stand still and don't know how to make progress, and you are really ashamed of your ancestors .

"Thank you Palace Master for your compliment, but that's all in the past." The patriarch just smiled perfunctorily, not knowing whether he really didn't understand or pretended not to understand.

"Can I ask the patriarch a question?" Shen Qianfeng said.

"Naturally." The patriarch nodded, "Master Shen, please speak."

"Who was the person who took the little bottle away from the general's mansion that day?" Shen Qianfeng said, "I heard that the martial arts are good, but I don't seem to see him this time."

"They." The patriarch said, "They are the gatekeepers of my Baidi Village. One is named Daohun and the other is named Jianpo. They don't appear easily on weekdays."

"The gatekeeper is so powerful?" Shen Qianling was surprised.

The patriarch said with a smile, "Soul of Sword and Soul of Sword are brothers and sisters, the only thing we have to do on weekdays is to guard the main road of the villa and prevent outsiders from stepping in."

"What about martial arts? Where did you learn it?" Shen Qianling asked.

The patriarch shook his head, "This is a family matter in my Baidi Village, so please don't ask me the bottom line."

Shen Qianling: ...

Well, I seem to be a bit talkative.

"I came here to ask if there is anything else you need help with." The patriarch said, "Furthermore, I also want to ask when we can help resolve the matter."

"I don't need help for the time being. If there is a need, we will take the initiative to ask." Qin Shaoyu said, "As for the matter of subduing demons and subduing demons, we can only find out after Ling'er recovers a little bit."

Shen Xiaoshou had no choice but to put on a weak expression.

"The parents of the little bottle..." the patriarch hesitated.

"It will be cured within five days." Ye Jin answered casually while helping the little bottle to wipe her sticky hands.

"Really?" The patriarch seemed relieved, "That's good, thank you so much."

"You're welcome." Ye Jin smiled and continued to feed the little doll.

The hidden guard sighed on the roof, Guzhu Ye is really like a mother... Otherwise, let Young Master Shen work hard, maybe he can really give birth.

We were not expecting anything.

After saying a few more words, the patriarch got up to leave.Seeing that Xiao Pingzi was having fun with Ye Jin, he didn't take him away either. Anyway, now that his parents are both sick in bed, and leaving the careless Bai Ah Liu at home, he is really worried.

"What kind of herbs do you need to treat a disease?" Shen Qianfeng asked, "so that the hidden guards can go down the mountain to prepare."

"No need." Ye Jin shook his head, "The poison of the three-day grass is very easy to detoxify, and the amount the couple took is not too much, just a handful of mung beans, boiled red fruit, and the ready-made pills are enough. , there is no need to decoct medicine at all.”

"Then Bai Lao Liu forgets things when he turns his head, is it a disease?" Shen Qianling said, "If it can be cured, let's cure it together." Although it is not a fatal problem, it is indeed a headache.

"This is a little troublesome." Ye Jin said, "If the head has been knocked and bumped, maybe it can be treated with acupuncture, but if it is natural, I'm afraid there is no way."

"Actually, it's not a bad thing." Qin Shaoyu said, "If you don't like it, forget it when you turn around. It's a blessing that many people can't ask for."

"When you go to Xiao Pingzi's house later, let's ask him by the way." Ye Jin said, "In the end, they are all here, and if they can be cured, they will be cured. It's not a waste of energy."

The Jianghu mascot immediately applauded warmly in his heart, he really deserves to be my wife's sister-in-law, she is very kind.

As the sun rose gradually, Little Pingzi squatted on the ground to play with Little Phoenix, while Snow Wolf stood aside, shielding them from the shade.Huang Daxian was brought out by Mu Hanye to bask in the sun. Ye Jin tested his pulse and said there was nothing wrong, he just needed to take the medicine and take a good rest.

Mu Hanye nodded, before he could speak, a young man suddenly ran in, it was the water bearer they met at the entrance of the village yesterday.

"What happened?" Shen Qianfeng stood up.

"Something has happened." The young man obviously ran in a hurry, panting and leaning on the table, "Little Pingzi's mother, she is dying."

"What?" Ye Jin was shocked.

"The patriarch has already rushed over, and everyone should hurry up and take a look." The younger generation was anxious, "It is said that it suddenly stopped working just now."

It happened so suddenly that there was no time to ask in detail, and everyone went out to find out what happened.In the courtyard, only Mu Hanye, Huang Daxian, Fuqiu Xuelang and Xiaopingzi were left in the courtyard. Because he was too young, he didn't know what happened, and he was still running around playing with Xiaofenghuang .

"Why did something happen right away?" Huang Daxian frowned.

"If it's all right, we don't need to come." Mu Hanye picked up the small bottle, "It's a poor child who is rich and honored."

"If it's possible, I really want to send him down the mountain." Huang Daxian squeezed his little hand, "Even if life is a little bit harder, it's better than what it is now."

"What's so difficult about it?" Mu Hanye said, "As long as you think about it, we can take it with us when we leave, not to mention sending it down the mountain, even if we take it to Qijue Country."

"You talk nonsense again." Huang Daxian shook his head, "Other people's ancestors have established the rules that have been handed down in the village for thousands of years, how can we change them because of our momentary soft-heartedness?"

"You are wrong." Mu Han said at night, "The rules set by our ancestors can also be divided into good and bad. If we don't seek to benefit future generations, even if we just don't harm others, we should respect them and not disturb them. But Bai These rules in Emperor Village are obviously harmful to others, why can’t they be broken?”

Huang Daxian was stunned for a moment, thinking that it seemed to be the same reason.

"The most deceptive thing in this world is the so-called 'ancestral rules'. Once these four words are mentioned, others will be labeled as meddlers if they want to care about them." Now I don’t know how many inexplicable rules there should be.”

Huang Daxian smiled, "It's like you and the queen mother."

"So, since we met us, this little baby doesn't have to be imprisoned in the ancestral hall." Mu Hanye put the small bottle in his arms, "Take it back to Qijue Kingdom."

Although he explained that he knew that he was talking nonsense again, Huang Daxian didn't argue too much. Seeing that the little doll seemed a little tired from playing, he put it beside him and watched him sleep.Mao Qiu stretched his neck to look, then consciously shut up and went out to play with Snow Wolf.

The Young Palace Master, who is often woken up by strange sounds, is so sensible, you guys feel it a little bit.

In the room at the other end, Ye Jin looked at the eyes of the woman on the bed, tested her pulse again, and sighed, "It's too late."

As soon as the words were spoken, the women guarding the house wiped away their tears.Xiao Pingzi's father's name was Bai Fang, and when he heard it, he was struck by thunder and almost passed out.

Bai Ah Liu stood aside and supported him, his face was also a little pale.

There was a low cry in the house, Ye Jin turned and went out, and went straight to the kitchen.

There were leftovers from breakfast on the chopping board, Ye Jin looked at them and said, "Someone put a lot of three-day grass in the porridge, enough to kill you."

"Someone wants to silence?" Shen Qianfeng frowned, "I just sent someone to watch the back mountain, but I didn't expect the other party to attack here."

"Go get Bai Ah Liu out." Ye Jin said, "I have something to ask him."

"Are you sure?" Shen Qianling reminded, "He has a memory of adding salt to tea."

Ye Jin: ...

"Ask Bai Fang to come out together." Qin Shaoyu said, "Although I have just experienced the pain of losing my wife, now I can only rely on him to find the murderer. Since as a man, when faced with an accident in his family, the pain in his heart is It’s one thing, taking responsibility on your shoulders is another.”

The dark guard nodded, went back to the room and called Bai Ah Liu and Bai Fang out together.

"Who made the breakfast?" Ye Jin asked straight to the point.

Bai Fang's face was sallow, and he said, "Recently Ah Liu is making breakfast, and Hua Niang and I can't get out of bed."

Bai Ah Liu also nodded, "I did it."

"Who has eaten this pot of porridge?" Ye Jin asked.

Bai Ah Liu's face turned pale, "Is there something wrong with this porridge?"

"Only Huaniang ate it," Bai Fang said.

Bai Ah Liu was still asking, "What's wrong with this porridge, I cooked it myself."

"Such a big pot, why is Hua Niang the only one eating it?" Ye Jin's voice was not too sharp, obviously afraid of scaring the two of them.

"Huanniang's stomach is uncomfortable recently, so I asked Ah Liu to put some brown sugar and jujubes in the bowl." Bai Fang said, "Who knows, he didn't forget after listening, but he put it all over the pot. I took a bite and felt disgusted." Sweet, he also finds it boring, so only Hua Niang ate a bowl."

"What's wrong with this porridge?" Bai Ah Liu seemed to be frightened, but said incoherently over and over again, "I cooked it, keep watching it, there will be no problem."

"Don't be afraid." Ye Jin patted him on the shoulder, "Calm down."

Bai Ah Liu was still confused, and even wanted to drink a couple of mouthfuls of porridge by himself, but was naturally stopped by the hidden guards.

"No one said you were the one who poisoned me, but you have to remember about making this pot of porridge." Ye Jin said, "It's up to you whether you can find the murderer for your elder sister."

"What do you want?" Bai Ah Liu was still trembling, "I made the porridge. I soaked the rice at night and made the porridge in the morning. It's like this every day. What's the problem?"

"That's right." Bai Fang also said, "A-Liu is very familiar with this matter, he does it every day so he won't forget it."

"I soaked the rice in the kitchen at night, and then lit the fire to cook it in the morning." Ye Jin was thoughtful, which means that from last night to this morning, the other party sneaked into the kitchen to poison him all night.

"Is there anything unusual at home last night?" Qin Shaoyu asked.

"Probably not." Bai Fang shook his head, "I've been going to bed very early these days, and Xiao Pingzi and Ah Liu slept in the outhouse without being woken up, just like usual."

Ye Jin wanted to ask something else, but Bai Fang covered his mouth and began to cough. He looked a little out of breath and had difficulty breathing, so he had to ask Bai Ah Liu to help him back first.

Everyone in the village is considered a family, so they can handle things quickly. In the afternoon, a mourning hall was set up in the house.Shen Qianfeng and the others searched the kitchen carefully, but found no useful clues.Naturally, the little bottle couldn't be sent back home. Originally, the patriarch wanted to take him by his side, but after seeing that Mu Hanye and Huang Daxian seemed to like it very much, he decided to stay temporarily. It was safer than other places anyway.

Due to the high prestige of the patriarch in the village, many things required him to come forward, so he was not free until night.Qin Shaoyu asked him, "Does this family have any enemies?"

The patriarch shook his head, "Everyone in the village is relatives, and they don't usually deal with the outside world. There are only a few dozen households in total. How can there be any serious enmity? At most, there are trivial frictions. How can they commit poison and harm people? "

"Not one?" Qin Shaoyu frowned.

The patriarch said, "Not a single one."

When everyone in the room heard the words, their hearts were a little bit thumping, and they felt like there was a little fog.

"However, something strange happened in the village last night, and I just heard about it just now." The patriarch said.

"What's the matter?" Shen Qianling asked.

"The monster from the back mountain came to the village again last night." The patriarch said, "Someone saw it with their own eyes."

Qin Shaoyu asked, "Who saw it?"

"More than one person saw it, and at least three or four young people came to me and told me that there was a black shadow wandering in the field in the middle of the night." The patriarch said, "But no one dared to catch him, and finally let him run away."

"When did it happen last night?" Qin Shaoyu asked again.

"In the middle of the night." The patriarch said, "The monster usually comes to the village to look for food, so the young people didn't take it seriously. It wasn't until today that they heard that someone died and thought it should be related to him, so they came to me one after another. .”

"You mean the monster was poisoned?" Shen Qianling asked.

The patriarch sighed, "Up to now, this is probably the most reasonable explanation."

Qin Shaoyu nodded, "I will send someone to Houshan to investigate."

"Thank you very much." The patriarch stood up and made a deep bow to everyone, "I hope that all the distinguished guests can help my villagers out of suffering as soon as possible..."

Between the words, there are already old tears.

After sending the patriarch away, Qin Shaoyu called the hidden guards who were in the ravine last night and asked them if there was anything unusual.

"We have been watching at the exit of the mountain, but we didn't find anyone entering or exiting." The dark guard said, "Let's not say it is a human, and there is not a single beast. The ravine is extremely quiet."

"Is there another way out of the mountain?" Shen Qianling asked.

"I haven't been to Houshan, so I can't say for sure." Qin Shaoyu said, "Tomorrow I will see it myself."

"Yes." Shen Qianling nodded, "Then you have to be careful."

"It's getting late, let's rest first." Shen Qianfeng said, "I have strengthened the guards in the village, and we will talk about the rest tomorrow."

Everyone nodded and went back to their rooms to sleep.Since Huang Daxian hadn't recovered yet, he fell asleep the earliest, with the little bottle lying beside him, his little hands tightly clutching his fingers.

"Look, I just said that he likes Ah Huang the most." Mu Hanye leaned to one side, guarding one big and one small, with a smile in his eyes.

"Sleep calmly tonight." Huang Daxian said, "Don't overwhelm him."

Mu Hanye was dissatisfied, "When did I sleep dishonestly?"

Huang Daxian looked at him, "When did you sleep peacefully?" Whether it was rolling or rubbing, he could crush him, let alone a four-year-old doll.

Mu Hanye calmly said, "Usually, it's all on purpose."

Huang Daxian was stunned, "...You are quite refreshing to admit it."

"Go to sleep." Mu Hanye swung his sleeves to wipe out the lights, "I promise not to move around tonight."

Huang Daxian covered the quilt for the little bottle, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

In the next room, Shen Qianling kept thinking about the day's affairs, and kept her eyes open for a long time.

"Why aren't you sleeping?" Qin Shaoyu asked in the dark.

Shen Qianling was taken aback, "I thought you were asleep."

"You didn't sleep, how can I sleep." Qin Shaoyu looked at him sideways, "Otherwise I will count the sheep for you?"

"I can't fall asleep even after counting." Shen Qianling put his arms around his neck, "Have you brought Anshen Xiang?"

"There is something in my heart, and the Anshenxiang is probably useless." Qin Shaoyu said, "Mongolian medicine is fine."

Shen Qianling: ...

Young man, are you serious?

Qin Shaoyu leaned over to kiss him.

Shen Xiaoshou pushed away, "I'm not in the mood."

"What are you not in the mood for?" Qin Shaoyu laughed.

Shen Xiaoshou grabbed his cheek, "What do you think?"

"Even if you're in the mood, I'm afraid it won't work." Qin Shaoyu patted him on the back.

"Why?" Shen Qianling was puzzled.

Qin Shaoyu didn't answer his question, and after getting off the bed, he lit a candle, "Bring it in."

Shen Qianling was surprised.

What do you mean...bring in? !
