Bad knife

Yin Dao stared at the people not far away from the tree and saw the city for most of the night, rested for a while at will, and got up before dawn the next day and started on his way.

On the way, I picked some wild fruits for breakfast and lunch. After walking for a day, I was already far away from Renjian City. When the sun set in the evening, I finally saw a small village not far ahead.Yindao sighed that maybe he didn't need to count the stars in the forest at night, so he quickened his pace, hoping to find a bed before sunset.

Entering the village, Yindao was first attracted by a child in cassock five meters ahead.The other party looked like he was two years younger than himself, but he was dressed like a mage, holding a staff in his hand, and was pulling a passing man to say something.

"Sir, I see unclean shadows in this village, so please let me exorcise evil..."

Yin Dao not far away saw this child pretending to be serious and speaking extremely classic words of magic stick, unfortunately, he was too young.

Sure enough, the man was inexplicably held back by a child who told him there was a monster. At that moment, he just felt that this was a child who ran out somewhere and was playing a prank on the mage, so he waved his hand casually and ignored him.

Seeing the little mage pouted and showing a disappointed expression immediately after the man left, Yin Dao felt it was funny, in fact, he did laugh out loud.

This smile naturally caught the attention of the little mage in front.When the little mage heard someone laughing at him, he blushed immediately and turned around to glare at him, but saw that the other party was a child about his own age, with long curly hair like seaweed, dressed luxuriously, and his face was slightly pale. Pale, he looked like a young master from a wealthy family, but he was as beautiful as a little fairy boy walking out of a painting.The anger that was just born in my heart was extinguished in an instant, and I just looked at the other party in a daze, unable to say a word.

Yin Dao saw that the other party was angry and desperate, but now he just stood there blankly, and felt even more amused in his heart, and the smile on his face unconsciously widened a bit.

Yin Dao has lived in Renjian City since he was a child, because Renjian city lord does not want to see him, so he has almost never been out of the inner courtyard. The master who taught me, it is rare to see a child of my own age at this moment, and he is still a little mage, and he only thought it was interesting, so he showed a kind smile to the other party:

"Hello, I am Yin Dao, and people see Yin Dao."

The little mage on the opposite side seemed to be stunned for a while before reacting, and said loudly with a blushing face:

"Maitreya, my name is Maitreya!"

The friendship between children is very simple. After a while, Yin Dao became acquainted with Maitreya. Only then did I know that this little mage named Maitreya practiced with his father. On the way, the two met a monster, and Mi Fang was chasing the monster at the moment, so let Mi Le come to this small village to stay overnight.

Yindao and Maitreya walked together, and soon found someone who could stay overnight. It was an elderly man with a fifteen or sixteen-year-old granddaughter.

Yindao took a fancy to the cute little girl at first glance, don't get me wrong, it means that the girl has a good face and is easy to talk, so he encouraged Maitreya to strike up a conversation.The first thing Maitreya saw was the dilapidated thatched hut, he was quite unhappy at first, but then he saw a lovely young lady drying the clothes at the second sight, and now, without waiting for Yin Dao to say anything more, in the blink of an eye Then he ran in front of him, and before the little girl could react, he took his hands:

"Sister, please bear me a child!"

bang-

Immediately, Yin Dao felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and only heard the wooden basin in the little girl's hand fall to the ground and then yelled:

"grandfather!"

Seeing an old man rush out aggressively with a wooden stick, just as if his granddaughter was bullied by that pedant and wanted to find someone to settle accounts, Yin Dao hurriedly stepped forward and gently tugged at the corner of the little girl's clothes, leading her back Blinking his big eyes vigorously, he said pitifully:

"Sister, my brother is joking with you. We got separated from my father. We haven't eaten for a day, and we don't have a place to live today."

The little girl's name is Qiuye, but she is not from this village. A few years ago, the family members died or got separated due to the war, and only she and her elderly grandfather fled here to settle down. The folk customs in this village are simple and honest, and the two usually grow some fruits and vegetables by themselves and with the subsidies from the villagers, they can actually live a small life.Two days ago, the old people in the village arranged a marriage, and they only waited for a few days to pick a good day before getting married.

Seeing that they were two poor children who had separated from their families, the grandparents and grandchildren immediately felt a sense of sympathy for each other. They hurriedly and enthusiastically invited the two into the house, prepared some dinner for the two children, and burned it again. Hot water, Qiuye is always regarded by the grandfather as a little girl who can't grow up at home on weekdays, and finally two younger brothers came, and after everything was done, she drove the two children into the house to sleep like a big sister .

Lying on a simple bed made of straw, Yindao always felt that everything was so novel. Hearing Maitreya's gradually calming breathing beside him, he suddenly thought of the mage's father mentioned by Mitreya. The sleeping Maitreya was woken up by Tinker:

"Hey, Maitreya, how did your father find you when he came?"

Maitreya groaned in a daze for a few times before he came to his senses, and suddenly started to say in surprise:

"Hey, I forgot to mark his way!"

Yin Dao was full of black lines, and slowly recalled that Maitreya had a very happy chat with him along the way, and it was true that he forgot everything during the chat.

The two struggled for a while, and when the drowsiness hit, they fell asleep again carelessly.

In the early morning of the second day, Yindao was pestered by Mitreya to find Master Mi, and the two of them went out flirtatiously under Qiuye's instruction of "remember to come back early for lunch".

Yin Dao suggested to go back on the way Maitreya and the others came, so as to find some clues, but Mi Le took Yin Dao directly to a hill not far from the village, claiming that monsters like to run into the forest, and his father must be chasing Went to the deep mountains and old forests.Yin Dao had no choice but to let Maitreya run.

Maitreya looked like he was really in a hurry. In the past, when they met a little demon with short eyes on the road, they were always killed with one blow. This time, his father chased the little demon and disappeared. There is no news. I asked the village this morning and I didn't hear that a mage entered the village.So after entering the mountain, Maitreya proposed to split up with the Yin Dao soldiers in two ways, so as to find him quickly.

Over there, Maitreya left some marks along the way while shouting, but Yin Dao here lacked interest.It's really Yin Dao who thinks that Maitreya is making a fuss. It's normal for an adult mage to chase and kill monsters alone, not to mention that according to Maitreya's description, he is just a little monster with no eyes.

Yin Dao boredly pulled out the long knife behind him and cut off the branches in front of him. His gaze once again fell on the long knife with the same name in his hand. It has not been three days since it was in his hands, and Yin Dao has not had a chance to come yet. Try this weapon that Ando regards as a treasured sword.Yin Dao's mother's natal family was destroyed in the war long ago, and the mother's family reluctantly said that only Xiao Chuan was left, but Xiao Chuan never mentioned the "Yin Dao" thing, on the contrary, Ando had ulterior motives in Ren Jiancheng. I have been lurking for ten years, and now I don't know whether it is because of the feeling of master and apprentice or other reasons, and it can be regarded as returning this 'bad knife' to its original owner.

Thinking of this, Yin Dao suddenly remembered that he didn't seem to have doubted Ando. When he handed the knife into his hands, he just believed what Ando said for granted. At that moment, it seemed that there was really a kind of return comfort.

It's useless to think too much, it's better to find a chance to try the knife.

Yin Dao put down the doubts in his heart for the moment, thought for a moment, and chose to open the way with the so-called precious sword in his hand, and resolutely cut off the branches and leaves blocking the way with the long knife in his hand. I admired:

Still pretty sharp.
