"That was close, that was close. My shoes were wet, and I almost screwed up!”As for Qin Hao, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He had practiced crossing the river with a reed to perfection, but it was still a little difficult for him to truly cross the river with a reed. His shoes had been wet by the water just now. If the river had been a little wider, he would have capsized.
"My cultivation is still too shallow. If I can master the Golden Bell Shield, I can be as light as a feather and run on the waves!”Not only did Qin Hao have a higher realm of Divine Forgetfulness, but he could also cross the river on a reed now. In the future, he might really be able to reach the realm of land immortals as recorded in the ancient books!
"The outside world is indeed more interesting than Mount Daqing.”Qin Hao could not help but feel proud when he thought of the move he had just shown and the imposing figure he left behind.
"Let's go, it's getting dark. Let's find a place to rest.”Qin Hao immediately continued on his way. What happened today was just a small interlude to him.
"I'm so hungry. I've been on the road for a long time, and I've eaten up all the rations I brought. There's still about three days to go. Today…I'll go beg for alms.”Qin Wu walked into the wilderness that day. He secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva and felt a little thirsty.
Qin Hao had been on his way. He had finished all the dry rations he had brought with him. It had been five days since he had eaten. He had only picked a few wild fruits on the way. Even with his cultivation, he could not bear it. He was still very far from the Heavenly Dragon Temple. Qin Hao had to eat.
Left with no choice, Qin Hao could only choose to beg for alms and see if he could get some food.
"Hmm? There's a house on the mountain ahead!" At this moment, Qin Hao's eyes lit up. He saw a house on a small mountain in front of him. There was even a faint smoke rising from the kitchen chimneys. At the foot of the small mountain, there were dozens of families. This was a small mountain village.
Qin Hao walked towards the courtyard. He saw that in the courtyard that was mainly made of bamboo and wood, there was a little girl who looked to be about ten years old playing.
"Big…Big monk!" When the little girl heard the footsteps, she looked up in confusion. When she saw Qin Hao, she immediately pointed at Qin Hao's bright bald head and called out.
The corner of Qin Wu's mouth twitched. He wasn't that old.
"Big monk, can I touch your head?”The little girl came to Qin Hao's face with hope. She stared at Qin Hao's head with shining eyes. It was the first time Tyrant had seen a little girl like her, so he was very curious.
While Qin Wu was speechless, a woman's voice sounded.""Little Ye, don't mess around."
Qin Hao saw a woman walk out of the house. She was wearing coarse clothes and had an ordinary appearance. She looked to be in her thirties, but she gave off a gentle feeling.
"Mother." The little girl threw herself into the woman's arms.
The woman looked at Qin Hao apologetically.""Grandmaster, I'm really sorry. My daughter is insensible and has offended Grandmaster.”
"No, no…I'm not a master, just call me Duzhen.”Qin Hao shook his head. He naturally wouldn't fuss over such a small matter with a little girl.
"Master, it looks like you haven't had dinner yet. If you don't mind, it's time for dinner at my house.”When the woman saw Qin Hao's dry lips, she could not help but say. Her family was very Buddhist. In addition, Qin Hao did not look like a bad person, so she invited him to eat together.
"Then…I'll be troubling you." Qin Hao was originally here to beg for alms. After all, he was young and thin-skinned, and he had never experienced such a thing before. He did not know how to start, but the other party took the initiative to invite him to eat. Qin Hao's eyes instantly lit up as he said gratefully.
The dishes in the woman's house were very simple. They were all vegetarian dishes, but to Qin Hao, they were undoubtedly delicacies. The woman was very hospitable and continuously scooped rice for Qin Hao. Qin Hao only felt full after eating three bowls of rice…mainly because there was no more rice.
From the conversation, Qin Hao learned that this woman's husband was an ordinary farmer. Three years ago, he was sent to the border of the Great Xia Dynasty to build the city walls. He had not returned yet, and his words were filled with longing for her.
In this era, there were no cell phones. The two of them were far apart, and they could only write to each other once every few months. This was indeed torturous.
"That benefactor will definitely return safely.”Qin Hao sincerely prayed for him.
After the meal, Qin Hao did not intend to stay the night. It was indeed inappropriate for him to stay the night with the mother and daughter.
"Big monk, this is for you.”Before Qin Hao left, the little girl handed him a small cloth bag with two steamed buns inside.
"Thank you, little benefactor." Qin Hao smiled and thanked her. He accepted the food the little girl gave him and waved goodbye.
The world was in chaos, and there were even rumors of demons and devils. Ordinary people lived very hard.
Qin Hao bid farewell to the mother and daughter of the ordinary farmer and continued on his way.
At this moment, the sky was gradually darkening. Qin Hao walked along the mountain path, and the sun gradually set. However, when Qin Hao reached the top of a tall mountain, he was stunned when he turned around. He saw that in the direction he came from, there was a small mountain village with flames soaring into the sky!
"What happened?" Qin Hao was slightly shocked. Without hesitation, he activated his lightness skill and flew in the direction he came from.
When he arrived at the entrance of the small mountain village, Qin Wu was stunned. He saw corpses all over the ground and heard miserable cries.
"Hurry up and kill them. Don't let a single one of them off. If you don't complete the task given by the leader, you know the consequences!”A rough voice sounded.
"Don't…don't come over, if you come any closer, I'll make a move!”In the small mountain village, a man dressed as a villager was holding a hoe and shouting at the people opposite him.
In front of the man were men in black suits. Their eyes were filled with killing intent. There were about seven or eight of them. The leader was a burly man in black suits. His hand holding the knife was very stable. It was obvious that he had put in a lot of effort in his saber technique.
The men in black looked at each other and revealed a playful smile."A cornered rabbit can bite? But this is even more interesting!"
The burly man strode towards the man dressed like a villager.
The man was a little afraid, but when he looked at the house behind him and saw that it was his wife and child, the man shouted angrily,"You bandits, I'll fight you to the death!”
The man raised his hoe and smashed it at the burly man's head without caring about anything else.
However, the burly man sneered and instantly slashed out!
"Kacha!"
The burly man was a second-rate martial artist with twenty years of cultivation. He was not someone an ordinary person could deliberately fight against. The knife directly broke the hoe and slashed at the man's neck.
The burly man had a sinister smile on his face, as if he could already see the scene of blood splattering.
However, the burly man was suddenly stunned because his saber stopped in mid-air. A powerful palm grabbed his wrist.
"Let…let go!" The burly man saw that it was a young monk. The other party's hand grabbed his wrist and tightened it like an iron clamp. The burly man could not help but let out a shrill scream and shouted repeatedly.
This monk was naturally Qin Wu, who had returned quickly.
