The firewood crackled and burned, green smoke curled up, the water in the clay pot gurgled, and a strong medicinal smell spread in the farmyard.
Xihe sat on a low stool with his legs bent, gently waving a palm-leaf fan, and occasionally raised his hand to stir the wooden spoon.
Yuanbao sat beside her, lowered his head, and sewed clothes carefully with the needle. The two pieces of clothes he sewed looked like two ugly maggots... The good clothes were all ruined.
Li couldn't bear to watch this and couldn't help but say, "Master, why don't you let me come?"
Yuanbao raised his face and showed a big smile: "Thank you, Master. I want to sew it myself."
As dusk fell, the firelight reflected on his face, making his youthful appearance even more pronounced, his lips red, his teeth white, his skin delicate and tender. If it weren't for his shabby clothes, someone who didn't know him would have mistaken him for the young master of some wealthy family.
However, when a young man from a wealthy family travels, he is usually surrounded by people and served by servants. How could he suffer such hardships?
Despite this, the boy's identity is equally extraordinary.
A wild mountain monster.
Roe deer spirit.
It is notoriously stupid in the animal kingdom and is known as the "silly roe deer".
Maybe it was his genes that made the boy, although he had grown into a human, still stupid. Except for the wild fox on the next hill who needed to go down the mountain to find someone to help him pass the tribulation, most of the monsters hid in the mountains to practice, but he was stupid enough to follow them and stepped into the world of mortals.
Fortunately, he didn't die and ran directly into the arms of the original owner, a big liar.
At that time, the original owner had been wandering the world of martial arts alone for two years and had witnessed many dangers. Although she was able to escape safely every time, she knew that good luck would not always favor her. She urgently needed someone who could serve her at all times and take the blame at critical moments.
So when he met the silly roe deer, seeing how silly he was, he immediately kept him by his side.
In order to control the other party in a legitimate way, he gave himself the identity of a master and could do whatever he wanted.
As a little monster who just came down from the mountain, Silly Roe Deer was full of curiosity about the world. He followed the original owner blindly, doing odd jobs for the original owner when he had nothing to do, and would stay behind when the original owner ran away.
There were several dangerous situations and I almost lost my life.
They cheated and deceived their way all the way from a small mountain village to the capital, where they became guests of honor of high-ranking officials.
But you can deceive people for a while, you can’t deceive them forever. The original owner soon met a tough guy, a snake demon who dug out people’s hearts and ate human flesh!
At that time, the original owner had been in the capital for almost a year, but she dared to talk nonsense in the mountains and villages, but when she came to the capital where Taoists gathered, she did not dare to claim that she had a close relationship with Taoism. Those Taoists were not to be provoked casually.
If something goes wrong, and someone comes to see the so-called junior brother out of curiosity... wouldn't she be courting death?
For a whole year, the original owner was unable to get close to the famous and powerful people and was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. At this time, many cases of noble ladies disappearing for no reason suddenly occurred in the capital, and they were all girls in the boudoir.
The Dali Temple was unable to find out what was going on, and the Taoist priest returned empty-handed.
More and more people were missing, and the next one was the daughter of the emperor's brother. Suddenly everyone panicked and issued a reward order outside the government office, offering a reward of 10,000 taels of gold to anyone who could catch the murderer.
Gold! Ten thousand taels!
From the fact that the silly roe deer was named "Yuanbao", it can be seen that the original owner was a greedy person.
Staring at the bounty on the wall, his saliva was about to flow, so he turned around and took the silly roe deer, who was watching the fun with excitement, directly into the yamen.
