At nightfall the next day, I brought the dagger and bow and arrows that I had forged that day in Zhengzhou to the residence of Ling and Bai. I was about to knock on the door when I heard a strange voice from inside.

"Brother... Brother... No... Don't die... Don't leave me alone..."

It's the sound of a bell!

"Brother, you bastard! Really, oops! Gently pull me! It's okay, don't worry, even if I die, I will crawl out of hell to meet you!"

...Xiaobai, thank you for your hard work, and, is there anyone who comforts people like you?

I shook my head dumbfounded, planning to go back to the house right away, we'll talk about the weapons tomorrow, when I heard Xiaobai's footsteps inside.

"Xiao Qian!"

He opened the door and laughed when he saw me, and whispered, "You're here!"

I hugged him, rubbed his head, and praised him: "Not bad! You can take care of others! It seems that you have a good relationship!"

"What!" He muttered with his soft messy hair on his head, "Who has a good relationship with him! There is still a screen between us!"

I didn't pierce his awkward thoughts, and said: "This is for you, the short knife is for the bell, and the bow and arrow is for you, ah, by the way, I contacted Xiao Tou a few days ago, he may come over during this time. "

"True? Is he coming?" Xiaobai's eyes widened, his shoulders trembled, and his face turned pale, "Really?"

I asked a little strangely: "Are you so afraid of him? Little Turtle is usually scary?"

Xiaobai shook his head violently, desperately, and hurriedly said: "Okay! I see! Then I'll go back to sleep, good night!"

"...Good night." Before I could say anything, Xiaobai had already rushed back to the house, closing the door behind him as if he saw some scourge.

I'm just a black thread, am I making a mistake, is Xiao Tou such a terrifying existence to Xiaobai?

From that night on, every day Xiaobai practiced hard to train himself, and he was often bruised and bruised and persisted. This is the first time I have seen this child's stubborn side. He doesn't listen to what he says, and he is determined to become stronger. .

I felt distressed after seeing it, but I couldn't find any convincing reason to stop him, so I could only frown at the side. This abominable brat still refused to let me teach him, instead, he ran to the chief manager Shannan Keisuke all day long to ask Asking this and that made me really depressed.

"Teacher? Are you going out?"

Seeing that I was carrying a big basket and Ling was still making tea, she quickly got up and said, "Please let me come with you?"

"Ah, no need, I need you to stay here," I stroked my forehead with a headache, and said slowly: "You also know that something is wrong with Xiaobai recently, please watch him more, I'll go to the mountain to get some medicine. "

"Picking herbs? There is a pharmacy on the street..." Ling murmured, looking at me cautiously.

"Well, the medicine I picked is not sold in pharmacies." I touched his head and waved my hand, "Then, wait for me to come back!"

"Okay, be careful on the road, ah! Are you coming back for lunch?" Bell asked loudly from behind.

"No! Come back in the afternoon"

The medicine that Zhen left me last time was quickly used up. Fortunately, I asked him how to make some common wound medicine, and now I can make it myself, but this is really messy enough.

What are the feathers of the Qingyan bird, the roots of the camphor tree, the tears of the sharp-leaved grass heart, the scales of the Hana carp...

Ah~~ monsters are really great species!

It took me a lot of time to pick these herbs, and it was almost dusk when I finished. I figured it was almost meal time, so I thanked the little raccoon who helped me grind the herbs, and went down the mountain with an empty basket on my back.

Why don't you just buy something and go back, otherwise it would be weird to bring back nothing, right?

Phew—it's really getting colder and colder recently. It's almost the end of autumn, and it seems that winter is not far away.Thinking of this, I suddenly had an idea, and walked in when I passed by a fabric and clothes store.

The boss was fiddling with the abacus, and when he saw a guest coming in, he greeted him with a smile, "What do you want, guest?"

"Do you have that kind of pure white wool ball? Softer ones, the more comfortable the material, the better. Keep warm too!" I glanced over the various fabrics and ready-made clothes on the shelf, and asked, "You can order them here. ?"

"Yes, may I ask, what do you need to use?" The boss followed my gaze and skipped the few pieces of fabric, and said with a smile: "Is it for the family?"

I nodded, couldn't help but bend my eyes, and said: "Yes, I made it for the three younger brothers in the family. The wool balls are used to weave scarves, and I choose some warm fabrics to make clothes."

Although Xiao Tou and Xiao Bai don't need these warm clothes, but they are living in a human place after all, so it's better to pay attention to all aspects.

"It seems that you really love your younger brothers! I wonder how tall they are? What about their size?" The boss took out a pen and paper, ready to write it down.

I thought for a while and said, "I'll draw it, just do it according to the proportions. Pay the deposit first, and I'll pick it up when it's finished."

"no problem."

Anyway, I lived in the palace for a period of time. Although the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting have regressed too much over the years, let alone the piano, it is completely forgotten, but the chess, calligraphy and painting have been in contact intermittently over the years. A few small things are not difficult. After wasting five sheets of paper, I finally drew the three of them completely on the paper. I was about to pay the money when there was a loud noise outside the door.

"What happened?" I asked casually, counting the money and putting it on the table.

Unexpectedly, the boss who has always been gentle and friendly frowned, with a look of disgust flashing in his eyes, and said in a low voice: "Who else is it, isn't it 'Mibu Wolf'! Humph! A group of bloody thugs!"

As soon as I stayed, the smile on my face faded, I put the wrapped ball of wool into the big basket behind me, and said, "That's it, I'll pick up the clothes another day."

"Hey! Okay! Go slowly."

Out of the shop, the orange-yellow light of the setting sun casts a warm color in front of people's eyes, and the charming color spreads from the endless horizon to the row upon row of neighbors in front of me. At that moment, I feel that I have returned to a hundred years ago, and I am still the one who has nothing. The little girl who understood could only hold the man's slightly cool hand, wandering curiously in the bustling market.

that time……

I squinted my eyes, stepped on the glow of the world, and walked forward.

"Mother—mother—na na!" The little child ran over excitedly and threw himself into the woman's arms, "There's a fight over there, let's go and see!"

"It's another battle among rogues! It's very dangerous!" The woman poked the child's forehead and taught, "What are you doing, hurry home!"

"No, no! He is such a powerful big brother! He stood up for his beautiful sister who was bullied by a group of bad warriors! He is so powerful! He is really so powerful!"

"Did you think you were watching a puppet show? How could such a silly thing happen! You silly boy, come home!"

"Mother—" the child's unrelenting voice gradually walked away, I smiled and walked towards the direction of the village.

"Oh! This is very dangerous!"

this sound...

I stopped, hesitated for a moment, pushed aside the crowd and walked towards the center of the disturbance.

really……

"Although it's just for fun, it's not okay to use swords and guns at the emperor's feet!"

Around the pastry shop, a few ronin with swords surrounded a beautiful woman standing quietly, with black hair like ink and white clothes better than snow. From her body came a cold and charming smell, sweet and elegant, the aroma of white plums.

Even in the face of such a dangerous situation, she still had no expression on her face, she just stood there indifferently, as if everything in front of her was an illusion.

The general manager was wearing a pure white bathrobe with a black belt. He was not on duty, and he did not have a knife when he came out.I remembered that Zuo Nosuke once laughed at him for being such a little girl, without any prestige, but the chief executive smiled and ate the three-color ball, while tilting his head and saying, what does that matter, we are going to play ghost hunting How annoying is it to carry a knife while gaming!

The words are correct, but... what to do when you encounter danger!

I sighed, and holding the scabbard in one hand, I untied Ting Xinya from my waist, and walked out of the crowd. Suddenly, I felt a chill behind my back, as if someone was staring at me, making my hair stand on end. "Shua" turned around, but only saw a group of good people watching the excitement.

what happened?

I strengthened my vigilance in my heart, pretended not to know the chief executive, and said with an unhappy face: "I said you, the women who covet me, will end in a very tragic way!"

"Huh?" The ronin who heard the voice turned and looked over, their eyes straightened immediately, "Oh, I'm going! Why is this guy prettier than women! Haha, you guys are really lucky today!"

I twitched the corner of my mouth, and gave the chief director a wink in a calm manner, but I saw that his face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, his eyes were sharp, and there seemed to be signs of anger.But in the blink of an eye, he smiled gently again, and said softly: "Be careful with what you say, otherwise, I'll beat you up like pussies!"

"puff--"

Girls, girls, what kind of trouble is this!

While holding back a smile, I dodged to block the oncoming attack, kicked him sideways in the air, and kicked him to the periphery of the crowd. He was just a small character, and he was solved in three or two strokes.

The superficial lines of those ronin, "Don't go, wait for me" echoed in my ears. I shrugged and said with a smile, "Miss, are you alright?"

"Thank you two for helping each other out, my little girl can't repay you." The woman who looked like a white plum bowed slightly, with a graceful and elegant posture.

"You're welcome, we're just seeing an injustice." The director slowly walked to my side and said with a smile.

"Why don't you tell us your name! It's just a thank you gift!" I hugged Ting Xinya with my arms around my chest and said with a smile.

"My name is Yukiyo—"

"Abba!"

The woman immediately turned her head to look, and I was surprised when I saw the man, and immediately understood what happened to the sight just now, it turned out to be an acquaintance.

I subconsciously turned my eyes away, just in time to see the chief executive staring at Kenshin with deep eyes, without saying a word.

"Then, meet by chance, see you by fate, I'll go first." Quickly judged that this place is not suitable to stay for a long time, I tried to leave first.

"Wait!" Jian Xin's eyes were fixed on Ting Xinya in my hand, he looked up at me, and said coldly: "The knife in your hand is very similar to that of a friend of mine, may I ask Now, where did this knife come from?"

I knew it!

I pretended to be surprised and widened my eyes, and said, "The friend you are talking about is not a girl who is about the same height as me, with long black hair and ice blue eyes, right?"

"...Yes." Jian Xin was silent for a moment, and answered.

"Ah, that's my sister. You can't be Himura Kenshin, right?" I looked him up and down, saw him nodding, opened his eyes and said nonsense, "My sister said, you are a very, very good person !"

"Yes, is it?" Jian Xin was startled, and asked hesitantly: "Then she now..."

"She went back to her hometown." I said with a slight smile, "She left home to find me privately, and my father was so angry that I sent her back."

"...Is that so, sorry to bother you."

Probably not an illusion, Jian Xin said in a low voice, with a look of loneliness appearing in his eyes, he quickly regained his composure, turned around and left with the woman named Ba.

"Himura Kenshin?" The chief executive stared at his back and said in a low voice, "He has a very murderous aura. If I guess correctly, he should be a master of swordsmanship, and his strength is comparable to mine."

"Well, I feel very strong," I nodded, rolled my eyes and smiled, "But of course I'm not stronger than me! Sarah, hurry back, it's getting dark, I'm so hungry."

"Okay, but, you just said your sister? Why have you never heard of it!" The chief executive asked curiously as he walked, looking at the big basket on my back, "I almost forgot, it was Mr. Ling who asked me to come out and find her." Yours, you have been out for too long, they are all worried."

"Ah, I'm sorry, I was delayed buying something on the way." I chatted with him with a smile, and said, "My sister, that is a troublesome guy. She was very clingy when she was young, and she became more clingy when she grew up." It's the lawlessness that spoils me."

So I joked about all the bad things that Xiaobai did before, and the sky was getting darker, the moon was bright and quiet, and the chill was falling on the branches, so we went back to the temple leisurely all the way.
