What's wrong with my mother adding special effects to my wife?

The man who raised the knife to him was named Zhou Qu, a bandit from Yikui Mountain. Shui Lian was robbed by this man when he was young. At that time, he was alone and had no food or clothing. .Seeing that the opponent was upright, he gritted his teeth and fought with him. After the defeat, he willingly surrendered and entered the cottage.

At that time, his martial arts were far inferior to Zhou Qu's, and he was skinny and weak, but he had a strong temperament and was good at observing words and expressions. He learned a lot from Zhou Qu's side.But he knew that he would not be a bandit for the rest of his life, and expedient measures would not last long after all.Once, they robbed the Ji family's idiot young master. He didn't have much money, but he was carrying a good sword. This young master was an embroidered pillow, but he was not an ignorant idiot. Even though he was powerless to resist, he still felt resentful in his heart. Before he was knocked out, he picked the thinnest one and pounced on him to take a bite. Shui Lian's arm was almost torn off by him, and he was tempted to kill him. It was Zhou Qu who stopped him .

That sword was the Yinhe Sword, but unfortunately Zhou Qu practiced saber techniques, and other people in the village couldn't handle this soft sword that was as soft as white practice. The Yinhe Sword was finally put into storage and sold at a high price in the future.

Within a few days, the Yinhe sword was stolen and Shuilian disappeared.

What happened couldn't be more obvious, the brothers in the village wanted him to hunt down the traitor and take back Yinhe, but Zhou Qu believed that he would not do such a thing, suppressed everyone's anger and remained silent for a few days, and missed the opportunity to pursue him.

Shui Lian heard about these things later. After all, he knew that he shouldn't escape so easily, at least he should be worried for a while, and Zhou Qu's actions were undoubtedly a kind of indulgence.

He doesn't feel like he's done anything wrong.

If he was robbed by Zhou Qu once, he would go back, if he was bitten by the young master of the Ji family, he would keep something from him.Of course, this is not the most important reason.

The important thing is that he has taken a fancy to Yinhe Sword, and he will leave Yikui Mountain sooner or later.

But he understood that this matter was against morality, betrayed the trust of the family, and became a traitor who left without saying goodbye.

That's why he didn't want Xiao Fangdao to know about this past.

He knew exactly what she hated.

He didn't draw his sword to resist Zhou Qu's saber move, but just leaped to the side lightly, barely dodging it.

This made Zhou Qu look dissatisfied. His sword skills have also improved in recent years, but Shui Lian has no fear or aggressiveness. Where has his youthful vigor gone?

"I won't show mercy."

Yan Ling's waist saber was long and slender, if Shui Lian didn't exercise his internal strength and fought with his bare hands, he would be at a disadvantage. Zhou Qu aimed at his waist to drink the river sword with every move, in order to force him to draw the sword.

The blade almost cut through the uterine cord, Shui Lian's scalp tightened, so he had to raise his sword to block it——the sword not drawn out of its sheath.

Of course, he couldn't use the Drinking River Sword to fight against him, otherwise He Zhan would show traces, and the disguise would be in vain.

Zhou Qu was pressing with swords and swords, and Shui Lian was not thinking about the battle at all, he just wanted to solve this trouble as soon as possible, so as to avoid Xiao Fangdao's suspicion.For him now, losing is more difficult than winning, but if he wins, what if Zhou Qu refuses to let it go?What if you want to have an encore with him or bring up an old incident?

...It is better to lose, just like their previous competitions.

Shui Lian's eyes sank slightly, revealing a persevering look similar to when he was young, and then calculated defeat within ten moves.

This is already a great improvement, after all, he couldn't survive five moves under his hands before.

A deep mark was carved on the scabbard by Zhou Qu, and his arms trembled slightly under the pressure of the opponent's Shen Xiong. After holding on for a while, Shui Lian lost his strength and abandoned the sword.

The Yinhe sword that was supposed to fall to the ground was picked up by Zhou Qu, and he swept back a few feet to prevent Shuilian from stepping forward to snatch it.

"!"

He never picks up the weapons of the defeated, this move was unexpected by Shui Lian.

Zhou Qu looked at the soft sword and said, "It is indeed a sharp weapon."

Shui Lian was afraid that he would have to pull it out for a closer look, so she hurriedly said, "I'm defeated, please pay me back."

"..." Zhou Qu was silent for a while, and threw the sword over, "I didn't intend to keep this thing at all. It's just...just say what you want, as long as you say so."

Did you say that earlier?Would he give himself the sword and allow him to leave the village without paying the price?

...only a fool would do that.

The rustling of shoes against the mud alerted him.

Shui Lian was startled and looked back.

He finally realized that there was another person getting out of the carriage besides him, it was Xu Chuilu.

Xu Chuilu: I’m sorry, I’m just afraid that you’re going to fight and you won’t be able to use the Drinking River Sword, so I came down to hand you a new sword or take back the special effects. I definitely didn’t intend to see you lose to the robber and be molested by the other party.

Zhou Qu also followed his gaze to look at Xu Chuilu, as if watching a play.

Shui Lian could only walk over, and said awkwardly: "Second sister, why did you come down? I'm here, don't worry..."

"Didn't you lose to others and still try to be brave?" Xu Chuilu pretended to be angry, and then bowed to Zhou Qu, "Young hero let me, my third brother, not hurt his life, he is really a benevolent person."

Now Zhou Qu was in a daze: "Are you... brothers and sisters?"

Xu Chuilu smiled: "Yes."

Although it doesn't look alike at all.

"..."

Zhou Qu showed a complex expression like "The bandit brother who used to eat sand with me was from a wealthy family".

"When you meet and smile, you will forget all your grievances and enmities. Please accept such a small gift with a smile."

Xu Chuilu is glad that she has the habit of carrying a wallet with her, otherwise she really doesn't know how to speak at this time.

The steps have been passed to the foot, Zhou Qu has no reason not to step on it.

What's more, although this "Second Sister" has gentle and friendly words, the word "encounter" is quite meaningful. She seems to know the past between him and Shui Lian. If Shui Lian has told his sister about the cottage, he can't Taking the stand of a strange bandit to attack, he can't use his stealing as a threat. After all, the relationship between the siblings seems to be very close.

Besides, he didn't want to do it.

"What did the girl say? We were rude." Zhou Qu hung the money bag on the handle of the knife, then stepped on the horse, took the rein and turned the horse's head, and shouted, "Let's go."

In the flying sand and gravel, several riders left in the dust.

Shui Lian knew that Xu Chuilu must have seen the clue, but since she rescued him just now, she probably wouldn't go into it.

"Thank you." He said before getting into the car.

The wheels are still rolling forward, endlessly.

The mountains in this area are continuous, there are many hills, and the mountain roads are rugged, as if there is no end.According to the map, they would spend the night in the mountains even if they were on the fast track. However, the convoy was rich in supplies, and it was more than enough to live in the mountains for half a month. However, the climate in the mountains was changeable, and they hadn't walked a few miles after the robbery. , they encountered a winter rain.

Frozen cloud dim, zero rain.

The driver suggested that the horse should rest for a while, the horse needs to eat some feed, and the people should also come out to breathe.

Holding a paper umbrella in one hand and a stove in the other, Xu Chuilu stood like a painting in the misty and rainy mountain scenery.

In contrast, Cang Wu acted like a simple and honest farmer—she was squatting on the side of the road digging mud pits with her small shovel.

The tip of the umbrella was slightly slanted, and the wide umbrella covered the two of them from the cold rain. Because Cangwu wanted to plant the "medicine fairy grass" here, Xu Chuilu took the initiative to act as the grass protector and umbrella holder.

"It's raining and the soil is soft and easy to plant." This is her reason.

"It...isn't a medicinal herb?" Xu Chuilu asked in a low voice.

Cangwu generously admitted: "That's right, it has no medicinal value, and it's not called 'Medicine Immortal Grass', its name is 'Renyi Grass'."

"A very strange title."

"Well, the disciples of the Cang family must successfully cultivate at least one Renyi grass to be eligible to enter the medicine garden." Cang Wu has already started to cultivate the soil, "It takes ten days from planting to sprouting. If this ten-day is properly taken care of, it will grow every nine It grows a leaf every day until it is fully mature, and its withering period is relatively short, dropping a leaf every two days until it withers."

"So it's 'Renyi'."

The rhizome has been firmly established, and Cangwu stood up: "This is a well-cultivated nonyi grass. If you neglect it before it germinates, it will not grow leaves and wither on time. We often use this to test whether our students are serious about planting herbs."

Xu Chuilu looked at the weak and slender grass fluttering in the wind and rain, frowned and said: "Which nephew planted this one?"

"Before he went out, the Renyi grass had grown a few new leaves on time. When it dropped the first leaf, I started to detect his whereabouts." Cang Wu smiled bitterly, "He failed several times before, this time it probably It can be done, but the grass grows well, but people die."

Xu Chuilu was secretly startled, if what she said was true, wouldn't she have changed the withering of Renyicao?

"Yesterday, it dropped a leaf a day earlier, which means it may have failed again." Cang Wu stared at her, "It's your method of renewing the grass that gave it the opportunity to continue to wither in accordance with the law."

"……what."

"Anyway, it's just that you fulfilled my wish. I really don't want my nephew to be a waste of nothing until he dies."

Xu Chuilu was stunned.

What Cangwu said was that the saying that the medicinal fairy grass fell was a complete lie. She deliberately bumped into Yunji to blackmail him, but she didn't ask for Yunji's property, she just had a meal. Her purpose would be so simple what?

Calculating the time, Zhu Haozhi's death was less than twenty days ago. Although she had never seen how many pieces of Renyi grass were mature, there were only less than five leaves left in the plant in front of her. Ye Zi, the timing seems to be just right, and Cangwu said that the revenge of death has been avenged-if the day of vengeance came earlier, she should have planted Renyi grass to comfort the dead.

Yesterday, something must have happened yesterday.

Xiao Fangdao casually mentioned that someone was poisoned in the lobby of the restaurant, and that Cang Wu left early at the dinner and went to the wrong room...

"I don't know that Renyicao has such a habit, how can it be regarded as perfect." It took Xu Chuilu a long time to find her voice.

Cang Wu stretched out his hand to catch the rain, and scrubbed the mud between his fingers: "Unintentional union is the supreme wisdom beyond all considerations, you don't have to underestimate yourself."

"You... have worked hard these two days." She sighed.

Cang Wu smiled lightly: "It's all over."

Xu Chuilu turned around and saw Xiao Fangdao looking towards her, Shui Lian also looked depressed with something to say, and Xuan Jian was waiting for a long time with a food box...

The three eyes were so bright that Xu Chuilu did not dare to take a step.

Suddenly stood at the crossroads of fate.

The author has something to say: Xu: I feel that there are important options to increase or decrease favorability.
