It's a serious in-game tester! [Comprehensive martial arts]

Everyone was actually frightened by the scary tentacles, but for some reason, no one asked.Until all the corpses were concentrated and burned.

Hu Tiehua finally couldn't bear it anymore, he carefully approached the old woman who was resting under the shade of a tree and watched other people's work and whispered.

"Grandma, what was that thing just now?"

He thought he was very quiet, but who here is not sharp-eyed, and when he asked, the rest of the ears immediately pricked up, fearing that they might miss it.

Willow looked at him and asked back.

"What do you think it is?"

Hu Tiehua hesitated.

"monster?"

Willow shook her head.

"It just grew a little bigger, not those ghosts and monsters."

Chu Liuxiang and others at the side saw that she didn't seem to mind other people's prying, so they couldn't help but move over.

Chu Liuxiang followed the train of thought given by the old woman to diverge her thinking.

"Could it be a particularly large octopus?"

He spends a lot of time at sea, and he has seen many kinds of octopuses with all kinds of strange patterns. Those three tentacles really look like the tentacles of an octopus.

The rest of the people also thought it was very similar, and couldn't help thinking about it.

But I feel wrong, if there is such a big octopus in the ground, what will it live on, groundwater?What about food?what does it eatWouldn't it be like today, sticking out of the ground and taking away a few lucky ones right away?

And the tentacles are so big, how big should its entire body be?

Everyone applied the proportions of the octopus they had seen to this one, and then they began to feel even more wrong. How could such a big octopus live underground? Unless it eats dirt, it will definitely starve to death, right?

Willow raised her eyebrows: Everyone has a good imagination.

Hua Manlou was also quite curious, seeing Willow's expression, he immediately understood that they had guessed wrong.Instead of guessing, she looked at Willow and asked for advice with a smile.

"Auntie, please tell us what it looks like."

For some reason, Willow's face became a little hot when she was called by her aunt.

Obviously she was taking advantage, why did she feel ashamed to be called out like that?

She coughed dryly.

"Actually, it's as long as you see it."

She picked up a branch and gestured on the ground. It was a thick tentacle growing from the ground.

"The one just sticking out is actually less than half of its body length. Most of its body is still growing underground. Of course, it doesn't need to eat, let alone people. It probably grows by absorbing nutrients from the soil. .”

Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard the first sentence. Isn't this thing too weird?

"Grows in the soil, is it a plant?"

Hu Tiehua exclaimed.

"Perhaps? Although it is not a ghost or monster, it is not an ordinary living thing. It is really hard to define what it is."

Wang Lianhua thought.

"Perhaps it is some kind of ancient beast. What is it called? Perhaps it was recorded in ancient books."

Zhu Qingshi said that although he is a retainer protecting the Duan family in Dali, he likes to dance and play with ink on weekdays. He has read a lot of ancient books with the help of the Dali royal family.

But Willow could only tell them regretfully.

"Sorry, no names."

"They have been living underground and do not appear in front of people. The language recorded in the book in my hand can wake them up, but their names are not recorded in the book.

But there is a rumor and a warning in the book.

It is likely to be the tentacles of a life, but that life does not exist in our world.

It is indescribable, it cannot be seen directly, it is fear itself, don't think about it, don't explore it, otherwise the soul will fall into the endless abyss. "

The old woman's words had a bit of a gloomy taste. Everyone thought those tentacles were scary before, but after hearing these words, they felt that those tentacles were weird again.

Hu Tiehua didn't have much ink in her stomach, and she sounded drunk. What is indescribable?What is fear itself?

Wang Lianhua recalled.

"When it came out, I was really scared, and my back was sweating. Now that I think about it, I stand outside, and it can't hit me. I can't be scared like that."

Although he looks young, he has been in the rivers and lakes for more than 40 years.No matter how unbelievable this matter is, it won't hurt him, so there's no reason for him to act like that.

But Chu Liuxiang was absolutely convinced that this was nonsense.

"Or maybe humans are afraid of living things that are much stronger than us. Ordinary people don't bother to hurt people when they see tigers and leopards even if they know they are full, won't they still have weak legs?"

This is true, everyone thinks that Chu Liuxiang's statement is more reliable.

Willow wasn't surprised that they would think so, after all Huaguo's god system was far from what she said.

But she didn't actually tell a lie, these contents were really written in the book.

Two days later, after finishing their affairs, they finally walked out of this mountain containing countless secrets. Everyone felt very tired.

After all, they were almost going to sleep forever in that mountain.

Duan Xiao and the others went back to report first, and then Dali should send envoys to meet the emperor of the Central Plains to completely end this farce.

Chu Liuxiang and Hu Tiehua got the letter that Su Rongrong and the others were in Dali, they should be worried that Chu Liuxiang couldn't help coming over, so the two of them prepared to go.

Wang Lianhua, who likes to make trouble the most, seems to be tired. After she came out, she got drunk with Chu Liuxiang and the others who liked to drink, and then went back to the island the next day to continue living in seclusion with Shen Lang and the others.

He was already on the boat, standing on the deck, holding a white porcelain wine bottle in his hand, looking at the sea in a daze, thinking of Lan Qi, he coaxed her and said that he would take her to see the sea.

Thinking of this, he raised his head and took a sip of his wine, laughing at himself for being really old and not suitable for being in the rivers and lakes.

He cheated so many people back then, but he didn't even blink.

A carriage arrived in Jiangnan and stopped in front of the small building.

The handsome son got out of the carriage first, and then reached out to help the people behind. Lu Xiaofeng, who was drinking on the second floor, subconsciously thought it was Wei Luo, but he didn't expect that it was an old woman who got down.

It was an old woman with silver hair, dignified and gorgeous clothes, and a serious face. She got off the carriage and muttered complaining.

"It's finally here, my old bones are about to fall apart."

A prodigal like Lu Xiaofeng is really afraid of such an elder, because you are invisible in front of her, and if she wants to reprimand you, you can't refute with a playful face, especially when this elder is really thinking of you.

I've never seen such an elder in the Hua family, or did Hua Manlou meet him on the road?

But where is Willow?

It was only then that Lu Xiaofeng swore viciously that he would definitely relax for the next few days, not to think about anything, not to look, and absolutely not to be curious!

As a result, seeing this unusual scene, he couldn't help but want to explore again.

The dying Lu Xiaofeng who was expropriated by the emperor, tired and just wanted to find a coffin to lie down in, came to his senses and realized that he had committed an old problem again, so he was so angry that he slapped himself.

You, you, can you be a little promising!

He is clearly a handsome prodigal son, why does he seem to be born to work hard? !

Are you addicted to finding things for yourself?

It's so irritating!

Willow and Huamanlou who looked up were attracted by the crisp applause: ...

Willow: "It's over, I'm afraid it's too late for us to solve the matter, Lu Xiaofeng's brain has been damaged and his brain is not working properly."

Hua Manlou really wanted to say that Lu Xiaofeng was not such a fragile person, but his excellent eyesight after recovery allowed him to see the bright red palm print on Lu Xiaofeng's face, so he couldn't say anything to refute.

But at this time, because he was too tired recently, Lu Xiaofeng, who had a lot of inner drama, belatedly realized that his actions seemed to be seen by others, he lowered his head, and was looking at Shang Huamanlou's concerned and slightly complicated eyes.

Lu Xiaofeng: ...

Hua Manlou hesitated.

"are you OK?"

Being asked such a question by his friend, Lu Xiaofeng was immediately aggrieved, he flew downstairs and said in grief and indignation.

"I'm not good, very bad, I can't wait to pour my brain out and stuff it into a straw, so that I don't have to worry about this and that every day.

You don't know, the emperor probably thinks I'm too useful, and wants to make me an official. If I don't swear to the death, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back! "

"It's a good thing you're back, otherwise, wouldn't I have lost a friend who was a vagabond?"

Hua Manlou smiled.

After Lu Xiaofeng said that, he immediately felt much better. With a smile on his face, he looked at the old woman beside him.

"Hua Man Lou, you haven't introduced me to who this mother-in-law is."

Knowing that this is Willow, Hua Manlou, who subconsciously ignored the introduction, fell silent.

Willow looked up and down at Lu Xiaofeng with a stern face, imitating the expression of an old man who looked at a bum on the street, with critical scrutiny.Then she said with a sly look in her eyes.

"I am Willow's aunt, since you are Willow's friend, please call me aunt too."

The smile at the corner of Hua Manlou's mouth deepened, he knew what Wei Luo wanted to do, but he didn't stop him, after all he knew that Lu Xiaofeng wouldn't mind such a little joke between friends.

Lu Xiaofeng had no idea that the two friends were partnering to trick him, and he couldn't help but stand upright from the sloppy stance when he was stared at by the old woman. When he heard that this was Willow's aunt, he was a little surprised.

"You turned out to be Willow's aunt?"

"Why, is this a surprising thing?"

Willow raised an eyebrow.

Lu Xiaofeng thought in his heart, this is of course not a surprising thing for ordinary people, but it is too surprising for Wei Luo.It is true that there are too many secrets in Willow and it is too amazing.He always thought that Willow was raised by nature, popping out from the cracks in the rocks.

"Do you think that Willow just popped out of a crack in the rock, without any parents or relatives?"

These words rang in Lu Xiaofeng's ears, causing him to raise his head quickly in fright.

"Grandma, can you read minds?"

Willow didn't expect this guy to really think so.

What does this guy think of her?

She hates it so much.

"No, you are too obvious."

Is it obvious?

No way?

If he was really happy and angry so easy for people to guess, he would have died countless times in the arena.

Lu Xiaofeng didn't notice anything wrong at this time, so he smiled and flattered him.

"My aunt is really good at observing words and expressions. It's not that I've never heard Willow talk about her family, so I thought it was wrong."

After all, he is an elder, and a good friend's elder, so Lu Xiaofeng was naturally very friendly to this aunt, looked at the big sun outside, and hurriedly invited her into the house.

"Let's go in first, it's really not a good place to talk under the sun."

He led Willow to sit on the ground.

"Grandma, sit here."

When Wei Luo sat down, Lu Xiaofeng said again.

"Grandma is exhausted, but thirsty?"

Although Lu Xiaofeng is indeed called a jerk by many women emotionally, he is still a jerk who pleases women. As long as he doesn't intentionally cause people to hate him, he can easily win the favor of women from eighty to eight years old.

Seeing him like this, Willow almost burst out laughing, she tried her best to keep a straight face and nodded.I thought Lu Xiaofeng wanted to make tea for her.

Unexpectedly, this guy turned his head and faced Huaman corridor.

"The building is full of flowers, why don't you make a cup of tea for my aunt?"

Then he enthusiastically blew a wave of Huamanlou at Willow.

"Grandma, Huamanlou's tea making skills are outstanding, you must try it."

Seeing him so active, Hua Manlou couldn't laugh or cry.

"We've been riding in a carriage for a whole day, so we have to wash and change into clean clothes first. Why don't we drink this tea later?"

Willow thought so too, after a few days in the carriage she came back feeling unwell, so she had to wash herself off.

After soaking in hot water, she complained to the system.

[I didn't feel it when I was young, but now that I'm old and ride in that carriage, not only my old bones are falling apart, but my teeth are almost flying out. 】The system looked at her hypocritical appearance and said speechlessly.

[At the beginning, it was you who said not to use the old lady, but now that the matter has been resolved, it is you who will never take off the old lady. 】【Hey, I didn't expect the role of the old lady to be so emotional, walking on the street with wind.Wait for me to play for two more days. 】Willow laughed.

the other side.

As soon as Huamanlou finished washing, she was grabbed by Lu Xiaofeng.

"What's going on, why did Willow's aunt follow you, where is Willow?"

This made Hua Manlou questionable. He is really not a liar, and he still lied to his friends, but he really didn't want to spoil this interesting joke.

At this time, he thought of Wei Luo's excuse to Duan Xiao and the others that day.

Lu Xiaofeng: "...why do you smile so strangely?"

"Have it?"

Hua Manlou restrained her smile a bit, and then told Willow's excuse that day.

"Because of the preparations for marriage, Willow's family took her away? Auntie saw that you were in danger to help you?"

Lu Xiaofeng stared deeply at Huamanlou and sighed.

"No wonder you laughed so silly just now."

It turned out to be getting married.

Marriage is really a very special vocabulary for a prodigal son. Although he loves freedom and rejects bondage, when the night is quiet, he sometimes thinks that it might be nice to have a home.

But Lu Xiaofeng knew that he might never get married in this life, looking at his friend who couldn't stop smiling happily, he patted his face with some relief and some sadness.

"It's all right now, your mother finally doesn't have to worry about me taking you to be a bachelor. But because of this, you have to please this aunt even more.

Since she helped you solve the matter and hasn't left yet, she followed you back to the south of the Yangtze River, and she is probably watching you. "

Huamanlou was confused.

"Watch me?"

"You don't understand this? Two young children want to get married. The two elders naturally have to look at each other to see each other and their family's character and family style, especially the daughter's family. The family who loves the daughter must be right. Let the prospective son-in-law's family watch it again and again.

If you don't know anything, and you marry someone with a black eye, if you don't live well after marriage, wouldn't this girl be miserable? "

Lu Xiaofeng paused as he said this.

After all, these words don't seem to be very applicable to Wei Luo. A girl like Wei Luo should not have a miserable life if she marries into any kind of family.She only makes life miserable for people she doesn't feel comfortable with...

"In short, this aunt is definitely here to see you. You have to be careful in serving you. If she is not satisfied and thinks you are not a good man, then your marriage with Willow will be hindered?"

Hua Manlou: "...Why are you so familiar with this kind of thing?"

Lu Xiaofeng: "Just tell me if what I said makes sense."

It had to be said that what Lu Xiaofeng said was quite reasonable, if the marriage was to be successful, he had to take good care of this aunt.

Hua Manlou couldn't help but smile.

"There is indeed some truth."

Before hooking up with Shaman failed, Lu Xiaofeng, who was in the middle of a broken relationship, suddenly looked sour when he saw this smile, this person who is about to get married, his smile is different from usual.

Then Lu Xiaofeng sincerely taught Huamanlou his eighteen ways to please middle-aged and elderly women, and asked him to learn a little bit.

After washing up, Willow walked in the corridor and saw the two muttering, she couldn't help but said.

"What did you say?"

Lu Xiaofeng turned around with a smile.

"I'm talking about you, aunt. I wonder what kind of tea my aunt likes on weekdays?"

Listening to Lu Xiaofeng talking about her aunt, Wei Luo didn't care about drinking tea, she waved her hand.

"I don't have anything I particularly like on weekdays, so you can do whatever you want."

Lu Xiaofeng hurriedly led his aunt to a seat and waited, before leaving, he whispered something to Hua Manlou.

"Casuality is the most testing place. This aunt is not a casual person at first glance, so be vigilant!"

He turned his head after he finished speaking, but he didn't see Hua Manlou smiling with the corners of his mouth rising uncontrollably.

I have to say that Huamanlou makes tea very beautifully, and her movements are as smooth as clouds and flowing water, and her every move is naturally elegant.

Watching him make tea can calm people's minds down. The scent of tea is not strong, but very light, mixed with the smell of flowers and plants in Xiaolou, making people breathe out slowly.

Although I left for a long time, the small building hired someone to take care of it before I left, and the flowers and plants were fine.They are placed in the corridor on the second floor.

Lu Xiaofeng knocked sideways.

"I don't know when Wei Luo will come back to marry Hua Manlou?"

Get married, what get married?

Willow, who forgot about it after speaking, was confused for a moment, and then remembered it.She froze instantly.

How did Lu Xiaofeng know about this?

She narrowed her eyes and looked at Huamanlou.

Hua Manlou smiled at her, and handed her the brewed tea.

"Grandma, please."

Stone hammer, this guy is taking advantage of her!

Willow took the tea and snorted.

"Well, after all, getting married is a big event, so we can't rush it, let's talk about it."

Why are you talking about this again?

Lu Xiaofeng turned his head to look at Huamanlou, and found that he was still concentrating on making his tea, so he gave him a look of resentment, and then said to his aunt.

"Grandma, this man has a lover and a concubine, how can it be called haste?

Huamanlou is already very old, his elder brother and children are almost as tall as him, and if he doesn't get married again, he will be very anxious. "

Hua Manlou was surprised, these words didn't seem like something Lu Xiaofeng could say, but when he recalled later, he found that these seemed to be the words his mother always said...

Lu Xiaofeng really thought that Willow was taken home and quarantined, probably because he felt that he was rich in feelings, he was a master figure, and he had to do his part in the emotional journey of a brother who couldn't even say nice words to girls.

Or maybe he felt that this aunt had been keeping a straight face and really didn't want to get along, so he tried very hard.

"Hua Manlou and Wei Luo really love each other. If the two of them hadn't been forced to, they would have wished to grow up together and never be separated..."

Before he finished speaking, the aunt in front of her choked.

Willow was choked by the tea and coughed continuously, staring at Lu Xiaofeng speechlessly.

Since when did she wish she could grow up with Huamanlou? Do you want to say so... so...

"Grandma, are you okay?"

Willow coughed.

"Why haven't I heard Willow say such a thing?"

"Willow is a girl after all, she's rather shy, so it's not easy to say it clearly, but Huamanlou and her are connected. Right?"

Lu Xiaofeng gave Huamanlou a look.

Hua Manlou didn't speak, but looked at Wei Luo with a smile in his eyes.

Willow: ...I always feel like she dug a hole by herself, jumped into it actively, and sprinkled soil along the way?

Her face was so hot that she couldn't hold back her old face anymore. She stood up angrily and wanted to refute, but she couldn't say anything when she saw Hua Manlou's smiling eyes.

In the end, he could only hold on.

"In short... In short, this matter has to be discussed and discussed by our family! The meeting is over!"

After saying that, she turned around and walked upstairs, and skillfully returned to her room, closed and locked the door, but when she looked down, she saw that she was still holding a teacup in her hand.

Willow: ...

Embarrassed, Willow quickly put the cup on the table, only to see her shy old face in the mirror when she turned her head.

Willow: ... She should change it back.

The system simply laughed out loud.

【Haha, I let you play tricks, so you hit yourself in the foot by moving a rock, right? ] Lu Xiaofeng downstairs snickered and his shoulders kept trembling.

Hua ManLou seemed to understand something.

"Did you guess it?"

"I didn't guess it at first, but I guessed it later. She is really not a good liar, and she has too many flaws.

How could the aunt who came here for the first time be so familiar with this house, even the towels and hot water for bathing?She acted like she was home.And every time I call her aunt, she wants to laugh, but she suppresses it.

So I deliberately tried you guys.Sure enough, you two teamed up to lie to me!"

Lu Xiaofeng laughed, not at all angry at being tricked into calling her auntie several times, after all he was the guy who could call auntie aunt even the 12-year-old Shangguan Xue'er had the cheek to call her auntie.

Not only is he not angry now, but he is also very happy, and he can't wait to have a big drink to celebrate!
