Chapter 33: Cause and Effect


Xiao Qi immediately got on the horse and led the order to leave.On the contrary, Mo Jiu was stunned when he heard it, "Your mother?"

”Wei Xi said: "Today, our family came to Huguo Temple to offer incense, and brought a lot of guards, and there are many people. ”Mo Jiu's throat choked, "Thank you." ”"It's important to find someone."

Wei Xi has already begun to analyze the surrounding terrain, "This road is the Huguo Temple in front, and the back is back to the city, and now there are not many people, the guards should be able to simply block it." ”"By the way," Wei Xi looked at Mo Jiu, "Are there any forks in the road around here?"

”Mo Jiu shook his head, "It's also my first time here. ”Hearing this, Wei Yun looked around and walked over to a woman who had just finished putting on incense, "Eldest sister, I want to ask you something." ”The woman who was stopped paused, and when she saw Wei Yun blocking the road, she suddenly became a little more restrained, "What does Miss want to inquire?"

”"Is there any path to walk at the foot of this immeasurable mountain?"

The woman really didn't disappoint her, and nodded, "Yes." ”As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to a thick tree not far in front of him, "There is a path around that tree, but the snow has not melted yet, and the road is not easy to walk, so it is better for Miss to take the big road, and you must be careful if you have to take the small road." ”"Okay, thank you, big sister.""

You're welcome, Miss."

Wei Yun came back after asking and told Wei Xi and Mo Jiu.Wei Xi glanced in the direction of the big tree, "Let's go, go over and have a look." ”The three men ran to the path and looked over.There was still some snow on the path, and there were more than one person's messy footprints on it, and they weren't sure if the person they were looking for had gone out of here.Wei Yun looked at Wei Xi, and then at Mo Jiu, "Chasing?"

”Mo Jiu gritted his teeth, "Chase." ”The three of them immediately took to the path.Rewind the clock to a cup of tea.Zong Xu originally came to Huguo Temple in secret, so naturally he couldn't leave with a swagger, and the master and servant left on a horse from the path.The snow road is slippery, and although there are few people who choose to walk on the path, it is not nothing, so it is natural to be careful, because the two of them walk very slowly.When passing by a woman wearing a gray jacket and skirt, because the other party was still holding a child in her arms, Zong Xu deliberately reined in the horse and let the other party pass first.Seeing this, the woman leaned over slightly and thanked silently, and then walked forward with the child in her arms.Zong Xu's gaze inadvertently fell on the face of the little female doll lying on the woman's shoulder.The child was born a little thin, and was held motionless and silent by the woman, and the exposed hand was a little purple from the cold, and his eyes were hooked, but he was just in a daze when he didn't look at anything.Luo Sheng whispered beside him: "Why is this kid like a little fool, shouldn't he be frozen?"

”Zong Xu's eyebrows were stunned, "Luo Sheng, stop the woman holding the child in front of you, and snatch the child back." ”Luo Sheng was stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously glanced at His Royal Highness, his face tightened, and he flew up directly from the horse.He thought it would be easy to stop a powerless woman from snatching a child.The truth is a slap in the face.really handed it over, only to find out that this is a martial arts master.And martial arts are not weak.The two of them fought on this narrow mountain road.The two sides were evenly matched, but they still had to take care of the child who was still motionless in the fight between the two, and there was a stalemate for a while.One can't grab it, and the other can't leave without throwing the child down.When Wei Yun Wei Xi and Mo Jiu arrived, the two of them hadn't stopped.Wei Yun glanced at Zong Xu who was riding on a horse, directly pulled the whip wrapped around his waist, and flew to join the battle.The woman was one against two and began to fall into the disadvantage.Zong Xu heard the footsteps behind him and looked back, and after seeing Wei Xi, he turned over and dismounted.glanced at the young man beside Wei Xi again, "Looking for a child?"

”Wei Xi received a stop look from him when he was about to salute, nodded and said, "I happened to meet it on the way back, so I helped find it together." ”"That woman has the number of roads in the eighteen villages of Lingxi."

Wei Xi: "" looked dazed.Mo Jiu's shoulders trembled violently when he heard this.Seeing this, Zong Xu almost confirmed his guess.If you want to say that Wei Yun makes the best among the eighteen weapons, you have to count the long whip.The woman couldn't get out of the parry with Luo Sheng, let alone another whip that made Wei Yun, who was close to being superb, be whipped mercilessly on the knee, she knew that if she didn't give up the child in her arms, she was afraid that she would have to fold here later, so she immediately threw the child up.While Luo Sheng and Wei Yun were busy catching the child, she resolutely flew away and ran away.Luo Sheng still wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Zong Xu, "Come back." ”Wei Yun wrapped the child with a whip, hugged him in his arms and walked back, Mo Jiusan stepped forward in two steps, took the person from Wei Yun's arms, checked up and down, and saw that there was no injury, and then spit out the last breath.Then he turned around, bent his knees and knelt down directly towards Zong Xu and Wei Xi, "Mo Jiu thank you for the help of this son, the two young ladies." ”Wei Yun was the closest, but he was almost startled when he suddenly knelt down, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to pull the person up, "There's no need to make such a big gift." ”Now that the person was safe, Wei Xi breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Zong Xu and said his doubts, "How did Gongzi see that there was something wrong with that woman?"

”"The woman was well disguised, and I didn't see anything wrong with her when she passed by.I'm looking at this kid. ”Wei Xi's eyes fell on Mo Manman, who was tightly hugged by Mo Jiu, and suddenly he was stunned.This kid can easily be seen that something is wrong, but before, she happened to mention it to Zong Xu.Thinking that His Royal Highness the King of Yue was suspicious because of this, he asked Luo Sheng to stop the people and buy time for them to catch up."

What are you laughing at?"

The sound in his ears was cool, and Wei Xi came back to his senses only to realize that he was actually smiling, and his eyebrows and eyes were bent, "Before I made incense and knelt in front of the Buddha, I was thinking that I didn't believe in Buddha, but I believed in cause and effect." ”Zong Xu looked at the little girl in front of him who was a little messy because of the hair on the forehead of the chaser, and nodded, "This is cause and effect." ”A drink and a peck are all cause and effect.But what is more precious is a kindness on top of cause and effect.Without this kindness, there is no cause and effect.After saying goodbye to Zong Xu, Wei Xi and the others returned along the way they came.When I returned to the stall, there was no one left of the wooden gadgets on the stall, and I think the passers-by saw that the stall owner was not there, so they took it away.Fortunately, the oilcloth and the small wooden stool, the flat pole and the two big baskets were still there.Mo Jiu put Manman on the ground, cleaned up the things on the stall, and finally put Manman in the basket and picked it up, then looked at Wei Yun and Wei Xi, "Please also ask the two young ladies to lead the way, I want to go and personally thank you two mothers." ”The young man's eyes were grateful, and his face was firm, and Wei Xi simply took him to meet her mother.Knowing that the person had been found, Fu Yuheng hurriedly ordered to go down and let the guards who were looking for someone come back, and then looked at the young man Yingting who was standing in front of her, "It's good to find the person back, but are you injured?"

”Mo Jiu put down the flat burden and bowed to Fu Yuheng and Yuan Qing, "My sister is safe and sound, Mo Jiu would like to thank the two women for their help." ”Fu Yuheng and Yuan Qing also accepted this gift calmly.When the guards all came back, they took Mo Jiuyi to thank the ladies and ladies who were willing to stop and let the guards help find people, and then prepared to leave for the city.Wei Xi originally wanted Mo Jiu and his brother and sister to follow, but Mo Jiu refused.She didn't force it, she just told him "be careful" before getting into the carriage.Mo Jiu stood on the side of the road, looked at the team that was gradually moving away, squatted down and touched his sister's head.Many, no matter how harsh this world treats you and me, there are always kind-hearted people who are willing to help each other without asking for anything in return.We can't repay it, but my brother wants you to remember that they helped us.As for the giant lackeys in the eighteen villages in Lingxi, none of them can escape.After such a delay on the road, it was almost evening when he got home, Wei Xi went back to his yard and went to the recliner in his house, and he didn't want to get up directly.Xiao Qi was arranging Wei Xi's clothes on the side, "Miss, today is really full of ups and downs." ”Who would have thought that just an ordinary trip to incense would cause such a change!

Wei Xi squinted, and waved his hand weakly when he heard the words, "It's good if the ending is good."

Xiao Qi, I squinted for a while, and called me when it was almost time to eat. ”First climbed halfway up the mountain, then went to the peach forest to watch the scenery, and went down the mountain and was in a hurry to find someone, Wei Xi only felt that the road he had walked this day was almost more than the road he had walked in the previous month.In one word, tired!

Seeing that Wei Xi fell asleep not long after speaking, Xiao Qi found a blanket and quietly covered it, and walked out of the room lightly.When Wei Zhao came over to call someone to eat, he saw that Wei Xi was sleeping soundly on the recliner, so he directly extinguished the idea of calling people, and said to Xiao Qi after leaving the room: "Just let Xi Xi fall asleep, I'll let the kitchen stew a soup, warm it on the stove, and give it to her to drink when she wakes up." ”Xiao Qi replied: "Yes, Second Miss." ”But the pot of soup was warm on the stove all night.Wei Xi didn't wake up until the next morning, and he didn't wake up when he was carried to bed by Xiaoba at night.On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, the government sealed.The family gathered in the largest study in the house to make some couplets.The main force is the brothers Wei Song, Wei Yan and Wei Xuan, Wei Zhao.The others sat by and drank tea while tasting the couplets that the four of them had written.Wei Xi slept from evening to the next morning yesterday, and at this time he was full of energy, and when he saw that the four people in front of the table were writing enthusiastically, his interest also followed.Stood up and walked over to a free pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.Wei Song had just finished writing a couplet, and when he saw Wei Xi pick a brush from the pen stand, he immediately smiled and said, "Xi Xi is also going to write a pair?"

”Wei Xi nodded, and neatly laid out the red paper, "Look at your uncle's writing, it's also a little itchy." ”"Speaking of which, the uncle hasn't seen Xi Xi's words yet, why don't you write a pair to the uncle?"

Wei Xi nodded happily, "Okay." ”Dip the pen in ink, and look at the posture is full.On the other side, Wei Yan and Wei Zhao, father and son, who were immersed in writing couplets, twitched, and the corners of their eyes twitched.Fu Yuheng and Wei Yun, who were drinking tea, swallowed the tea in their mouths with a smile.The four of them silently waited for someone's reaction when they saw the couplet.After Wei Xi finished writing, he brought the couplet to Wei Song, "Uncle, please take a look." ”Wei Song looked over expectantly: "He regretted it, and he wanted to take back what he had just said.
