Chapter 265 Qieyue Village in the Valley
Is it to use her to re-enter Nanzi?
Lou Xiao glanced at Mo Jingchun, who had weakened as soon as he saw the elder.
I felt guilty and couldn't stand up straight and speak with confidence.
But even so, he still had to defend himself, "It wasn't me who did it—"
Elder Qu Yan didn't listen to him at all and just looked at Lou Xiao.
"You believe him? Don't blame me for not reminding you that this man is a traitor expelled by Nanzi. He has a low character and cannot be trusted."
Mo Jingchun lowered his head and said nothing, but soon looked up at Lou Xiao, not knowing what unrealistic fantasy he was holding on to.
"Anyway, since I have come this far, there is no reason to turn back. I also hope that the elders will be flexible and allow me to go to Qieyue Village to seek medical treatment."
After failing to persuade him, Elder Qu Yan hesitated for a moment whether to stop him.
But Lou Xiao seems to be determined to achieve his goal. Judging from the news he brought before, his strength is unknown.
There is no need for Qieyue Village to mess with such a person.
She relaxed, "You can go with me, he can't--"
Lou Xiao was about to insist, but unexpectedly Mo Jingchun answered straightforwardly, "I'll wait here."
How is this possible?
Mo Jingchun looked at Lou Xiao and shook his head slightly to signal her not to speak, and Lou Xiaomo had no choice but to obey.
Elder Qu Yan led the way with his hands behind his back. Lou Xiao paused and looked back at Mo Jingchun, not understanding why he would take the initiative to stay here.
If he didn't go to Qieyue Village with her, he would have to face the hunt she caused alone.
Can Mo Jingchun deal with it?
"I'm fine." Mo Jingchun warned her in a low voice, "Remember what I reminded you before--"
Don't let them know her identity as the Duke of Zhenguo.
Lou Xiao nodded, and before he could say anything, Elder Qu Yan stopped not far away and turned around. Lou Xiao just said "take care" and turned away.
Mo Jingchun stood there and watched Lou Xiao and Elder Qu Yan disappear at a rapid speed. He seemed to be ruthlessly abandoned, and his whole body was shrouded in a shadow.
She really left.
Mo Jingchun sighed, threw away the pheasant in his hand, and left in another direction.
He has come this far with her and is so close to Qieyue Village, how could he give up so easily?
Since Elder Qu Yan is with her, there is still a possibility that he sneaked into Qieyue Village.
------
Lou Xiao had no idea how far Qieyue Village was, but it would be much easier with an elder leading the way.
At least there won’t be any more sudden pursuers, after all, this is now the territory of Qieyue Village.
On the road, people often emerged from trees, bushes, or holes in the ground to salute the elders and cast a curious glance at Lou Xiao.
But in the end, he didn't ask a single question.
This rule alone is unique to Nanzili.
What's more, each of them looked much better than the people from Nanzi that Lou Xiao had seen before, both in terms of clothing and physical condition.
"You have so many people guarding your village. Is it to prevent a surprise attack?"
Lou Xiao asked after exchanging friendly glances with one of them.
At first, Elder Qu Yan didn't know that he was asking her. He didn't expect that this girl would be so familiar and so bold after just meeting her.
It wasn't until I saw the question in her eyes that I realized what was going on, but I didn't want to explain too much.
Or just then, a young man carrying a backpack and wearing all kinds of colorful beads and small silver ornaments on his hair, like Mo Jingchun, came to greet her and explained to her,
"That's the reason. But the more important thing is to pay attention to forest fire prevention! It's summer now, and if there is a spark, it will be very dangerous."
The boy seemed to be heading back to the village, and he and Lou Xiao jumped over the branches one after the other. He was very curious about this outsider.
"Are you from the Central Plains martial arts world? What kind of martial arts did you learn? It looks really powerful. Can you teach me?"
Lou Xiao wanted to ask him something, so he asked,
"You are not my disciple, how can I teach you?"
The boy's eyes lit up, "Then I will become your disciple! You can't go back on your word! You promised to teach me!"
Lou Xiao: “...” She’s really taking advantage of him! She didn’t say she wanted to take him in!
Elder Qu Yan cleared his throat and spoke. "Jiashan, it is not easy for a Central Plains person to become a disciple."
It’s not like in the village. If you want to learn, there will definitely be someone willing to teach you.
People in the Central Plains attach great importance to inheritance. The relationship between master and apprentice is sometimes even stronger than that between parents and children. You are not related to each other and are in a different place. Why should others teach you how to make a living?
The boy named Jiashan touched his head embarrassedly and apologized to Lou Xiao, "Then you can give me some advice. I also want to be a village guard like others to protect the safety of the village.
Unfortunately, I am not good at poison and have not passed the martial arts test. Will you look down on me?"
He consulted the martial arts masters in the village, and they all said that martial arts requires more practice. He has fought with many people in the village.
But because we were all too familiar with each other, we didn't actually learn anything new from the game.
There are so many new people in the Central Plains martial arts world. Her methods are definitely different from those in the village.
Lou Xiao has always been fond of good kids who love to study, but unfortunately her health is not good.
She didn't know what opportunity would drive her into a killing state. Now she entered Qieyue Village alone. If she had an attack, who would stop her?
So she could only decline.
"I am not strong enough, so I am afraid I cannot teach you. Qieyue Village is the largest village in Nanzi, how could anyone look down on you?"
She thought what she said was fair, but Jiashan didn't buy it, "You lied to me. You're obviously very powerful. I've heard about it."
As for her perfunctory and polite words to him, Jiashan felt that the old man in the village was right.
People in the Central Plains are really good at talking and rarely speak the truth.
Thinking of this, the young man stopped talking to her while carrying the basket on his back.
Lou Xiao laughed as he quickened his pace and rushed to the side of Elder Qu Yan. As they walked uphill,
Gradually, a magnificent building appeared, revealing the tip of the iceberg.
Nanziqieyue Village.
First, a raised eave appeared on the horizon, and in the middle of the building's roof hung a white bull's head.
The thick and huge curved horns were tied with colorful ribbons, which fluttered in the wind, looking strange and dangerous.
Elder Qu Yan led her onto a stone road, with doors built on both sides using wood and stone slabs mixed with mud and glutinous rice.
There are skulls of different animals hanging on it, big and small, neatly arranged.
When Lou Xiao took a quick look, he actually saw some humans mixed in with them, but they were not very obvious.
Is it a trophy or a display of the village’s strength?
Lou Xiao withdrew his gaze from the top of the door and walked to the end of the stone road. Only then did he discover that under the raised eaves,
It turned out to be a huge city tower in a valley, built completely according to the terrain of the mountain.
She was at a high place on one side of the valley, and when she looked straight ahead she could see the upper middle floors of the building.
And in the valley, there are densely packed wooden houses, winding and hidden in the woods.
Below where she stood were cultivated farmlands.
At this time, the almost mature rice sways in the wind, and occasionally you can see farmers wearing straw hats busy in the fields.
If it weren't for the clothes, it would be difficult to tell whether it was Nanzi or Zhongyuan.
