It was dark in the forest, and the surrounding air was unusually hot. It was noon, and under the sun, the three of them walked together. In the distance, there were many families. It could be seen that this should be a village. The villagers were diligently planting all kinds of herbs around, but most of them were poppies..
This was originally an addictive drug, but in this country, it had become a necessity for everyone.
"Big brother, you are from another country, right? Our Country of Wave wasn't like this ten years ago. After Kado came, our country fell completely.”Inari's expression was filled with anger. It was hard to imagine why a seven or eight-year-old child would have such an expression.
"Yes." Ximen Chuixue nodded, and Yi Nali sighed softly." Someone as skilled as brother definitely doesn't understand the pain of the weak like us. Our country can't be saved anymore. Everyone is living in a fake world. Look at the people around us. They seem to be delusional. Their expressions are dull and dull, and they even laugh foolishly from time to time.”
"It's useless to say more." Ximen Chuixue saw this and glanced at the sword in his hand. Was the sword path that swordsmen pursued their entire lives just to kill people? Actually, that was not the case. It was just that the times were different and the world was different. In his heart, everyone here had nothing to do with him. Of course, other than Bai, Bai was the only person he had to protect. Of course, if he changed time and space and returned to the world that belonged to him, Ximen Chuixue, he might not only be a swordsman, but also a swordsman.
"Big brother." There seemed to be a hidden meaning in his words, but he knew that this was not the place to talk because there were many people around.
When he arrived at his house, there was an old man standing in front of his door. He seemed to have just finished his work. That should be his grandfather. This old man was very familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before. He was carrying a carrying pole and carrying water. A young woman was cooking in the kitchen.
This was a very traditional woman. Her long black hair cascaded down like a waterfall. Her back was facing the figure, and she was cutting food with a kitchen knife in her hand. Among the ingredients around the food, there was even the addictive poppy powder.
Her face turned pale and she turned around with a smile." Yi Na, why are you covered in water?”
"It's all thanks to this big brother who saved me. Otherwise, I would have drowned.”Yi Na pointed at Ximen Chuixue.
"It's good that you're fine." The woman smiled and glanced at Ximen Chuixue. He was a young man dressed in white and had a wooden sword on his back. His expression was indifferent, and he had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. He placed his hands behind his back. At this moment, he could also sense Jinbo looking at him. He looked at him and nodded at Jinbo. He said softly," Sorry to disturb you."”
"It's not like that. I really have to thank you for saving Yini. Yini, go back to your room and change your clothes, or you'll catch a cold. Guest, it's getting late, why don't you sit down and have a meal with our family?”After saying that, she observed Bai again." This is?”
"My name is Bai."
"And you are?" Jinbo asked curiously after hearing Bai's name.
"Ximen Chuixue."
Jinbo didn't ask any more questions. He went to the kitchen alone and continued to cook.
"Bai, what do you think of this place?”Ximen Chuixue walked to the door and looked around. It had to be said that this place was beautiful, and there was also the aura of human habitation and nature. It was quite suitable for seclusion.
"I like them, but the people in this country are a little scary.”Bai said softly," That Yi Na 'er must have some other motive for inviting us here. Besides, didn't you notice? The auntie called Jinbo looked at you with a strange gaze. Although I don't really understand it, it didn't seem like she was looking at a person at all. It was a kind of fanaticism." Bai is a smart person. She's not stupid."
Ximen Chuixue did not expect Bai to know so much.、
When it was time to eat, Yinali, Ximen Chuixue, and the others sat down around the table. It had to be said that Jinbo's cooking skills were really outstanding. The aroma of the food on the table assailed their noses, and the delicious food greatly increased their appetite.
Ximen Chuixue picked up some food and placed it into Bai's bowl. Bai did not do anything because the food she ate did not contain any poppy powder. Ximen Chuixue had done this on purpose.
"Look at this sweet and sour fish. It's especially delicious.”Jinbo chuckled." Fuzuki is still growing, so you have to eat it.”
"I'll do it myself." Ximen Chuixue ate his food calmly. He had eaten many foods with special flavors. These special flavors referred to foods with poppy powder.
Bai's eyes were filled with worry, but Ximen Chuixue was still very calm. Jinbo had witnessed Ximen Chuixue eat the food time and time again, and Inari's expression was very complicated.
"What do you think of the food, Mr. Ximen?”Jinbo saw that Ximen Chuixue was eating happily, so he quickly put away the plate and stopped Ximen Chuixue from eating. Snow Breaker was stunned." What are you doing?”
"Mr. Ximen's name is very famous. Even the people of our small country know him.”Dazner, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke. His old eyes were fixed on Ximen Chuixue.
Ximen Chuixue's gaze met his. Suddenly, he thought of something and could not help but exclaim," So you're the boatman who sent us off that night."”
"That's right, I've also seen how you killed Kado's men at the pier, and I admire you very much.”Dazner heaved a sigh of relief. A child was a child. He had only just discovered his identity.
"Yes." Ximen Chuixue sighed softly." If you want to drag me into this, you can just say it. Why beat around the bush and use this kind of ingredient that is addicted to poppies?”
"Mr. Ximen is a smart man. Actually, it's not that we want to do this this time. It's that Sir Kado needs you. "Dazner slammed the table.
"Oh?" Ximen Chuixue was confused. He didn't expect Kado to have such a wide network. This old man and Jinbo had already been informed, so what about Yi? Ximen Chuixue glanced at Yi Nali. He saw the guilt in Yi Nali's eyes. He must have fallen into the water on purpose.
"I hope Mr. Ximen can make a trip over.”Dazner hesitated for a moment." My grandfather was once the most famous sailor in the Country of Wave, but he has now become Kado's puppet and subordinate. Everyone in our country is like that. " Yi Na 'er cried bitterly. He didn't seem to want to drag Ximen Chuixue into this. He grabbed Ximen Chuixue's hand." Lord Sword God, you must save our country.”
"Yi Na, you really are useless." Dazner smiled awkwardly." Ignore this child. I hope Mr. Ximen can make a trip. If you don't go, our family might lose our lives. The Kado Family sent us here to capture the sect."”
"Why?"
"Isn't it because I was the one who sent you to the Country of Wave? They feel that at least I know you.”Dazner sighed.
"Alright then. " Ximen Chuixue suddenly smiled. When Bai saw Ximen Chuixue's smile, she was stunned. No one knows this better than her. If big brother smiled, it means that he's actually angry in his heart.
"That's great." Jinbo and Dazner looked at each other." Now, not only will the Kado people not punish us, but they will also reward us.”
Ximen Chuixue's eyes were filled with sorrow. Of course, he felt sorry for the people of this country.
These medicines might not be much to an expert like him, but to some poor people, they were already fatal.
