After the Legend Chapter 16: Going

Marshall looked at him with some surprise: "What are you talking about? Isn't your home in Ito Castle?"

Xiao Tianjian laughed at himself: "That's just one of my residences. I love freedom, and I can't live in one place for a long time."

Marshall didn't know what to say, so he had to go back to the original question: "You forgot that you promised Minna that you would not leave her again? If you go, the child will be very sad."

Xiao Tianjian frowned, remembering that he did seem to have said such a thing at the time, but it was just to coax the child, how could he really be with his little granddaughter all his life? He looked up at what Marshall was about to say, and when he saw the reproachful look on the other's face, he was suddenly a little unhappy: "This has nothing to do with you, you just need to do well at home." Don't think I didn't see it The look in your eyes when you stared at Mei Li's portrait, you're just a housekeeper, I'm Ming Na's grandfather!

He quickly got up and left the house, remembering that the child seemed to be heading towards the woods just now, he had better coax her back earlier.

Marshall was stunned when he heard the words, his eyes darkened, and after a long time, he sighed.

Ming Na hid in the woods again. This time, she was not climbing the big tree she used to love most, but a different one. She doesn't want to be found by others.

It turned out that Grandpa lied to her, saying that he would not leave her again, but he was lying. Just like mom and dad, they said they would come back soon, but they didn't come back after so long, and now even grandpa has to leave her behind. Is she that unpleasant? Fortunately, she still has Grandpa Marshall, at least Grandpa Marshall won't leave her.

She raised her hand to wipe the tears from her face. She is no longer a child, so she can't cry. If anyone sees it, she will laugh at her. But why can't those tears be wiped away?

Suddenly, a few birds flew up from the edge of the woods. She stopped and heard that someone seemed to have entered the woods. Could they be looking for her? Biting her lip, she held her breath, not wanting anyone to find her.

But her efforts were not very effective, Xiao Tianjian quickly found her trace, climbed up the tree, smiled and said to her: "Little girl, you forgot the smell of sweat on your body." And winked smugly.

Ming Na was furious and kicked over, startling Xiao Tianjian, shaking her body, stabilizing, and quickly grabbed her feet: "You're so angry? Stop making trouble. , this is very dangerous." The little girl has practiced her legs and feet for nearly two months, and her strength has increased.

Minna didn't listen, she struggled to get her foot back and kicked him again. Xiao Tianjian wanted to stabilize his body while paying attention to the safety of his granddaughter. He said a lot of good things. Seeing that Ming Na was still making trouble, he was also a little angry: "Don't make a fool of yourself! This is not a joke, do you want to plot against it? Your grandfather?!" With a finger movement, Ming Na's acupuncture point had already been tapped, and Ming Na's feet were soft and unable to move.

She cried out loudly: "Grandpa is a villain! Grandpa is a villain! A liar! Talking doesn't count! Bullying children..." She scolded loudly, frightening Xiao Tianjian, and had no choice but to answer He opened her acupuncture points, hugged her feet, and coaxed in a good voice: "Good Mingna, don't cry, don't be angry, grandpa said sorry to you."

"Then don't leave, stay with us."

Xiao Tianjian smiled bitterly: "How is that possible? I only went to find a friend when I had something to do. I had already made an appointment. If it wasn't for you, I would have seen him now. I have been to Matt Harbor, and I will stay with you. A few days is fine, but I can't stay in Ito for too long, let alone live with you."

"Why?" Minna asked, wiping away tears.

Xiao Tianjian smiled and said, "The children don't understand about adults, so don't ask. Anyway, I have never lived in one place for more than five years. At most, I promise you that I will visit you and your father every year from now on. How's it going?"

Ming Na categorically refused: "No! You still want to teach me swordsmanship, and you want to teach me Qinggong. You said you wanted to tell me stories, but you still owe me a lot of gifts. How can you say nothing? !”

"Uh... I'm only temporarily away for a month or two, and I'll be back soon. I'm going to accompany you to find your mother in Matt Harbor. I promise I'll make up for it when that happens, okay? Okay? Good Mingna, look, you have to do what you promise others, right? I promised to meet my friends, how can I break my promise?"

"You also promised not to leave me!"

Xiao Tianjian had a headache and missed his eldest grandson's honesty and obedience. Although Bevin's character is that the older he gets, the more boring he is, but at least he can do whatever he wants, not as difficult as this little girl.

No matter how much he coaxed, Ming Na refused to forgive him, and finally even said: "You can leave if you like, anyway, I still have Grandpa Marshall!"

When Xiao Tianjian heard this, his heart became unhappy. He didn't know why he felt this way, but when he thought that the cowardly Marshall grew up with his son and granddaughter, who was probably more important than himself in the eyes of the children, he felt that his dignity had been violated. . He thought about it and came up with an idea: "You can go with me, just go out and play. His house is very fun. After watching my friends, come back here and go to Matt Harbor." During this time, it is necessary to deepen the relationship with the granddaughter and let her know who is her real grandfather. Anyway, he has been taking care of children for the past six years, and he doesn't care about taking a few more months.

Minna was very happy at first, but hesitated: "What about Grandpa Marshall?"

Xiao Tianjian smiled: "Old Marshall still has a lot of things to do. If you're not here, he can take it easy. I don't think he will object." A cold light flashed in his eyes.

Marshall did not object, but it was not because he was busy. Now with the assistance of people from the Xiao Family Firm, and with sufficient time, preparations for leaving Edonia were not a problem for Marshall, who had been trained as a housekeeper since he was a child. He agreed that Ming Na would go out with Xiao Tianjian, mostly for the sake of Anlong's family.

From Anlong's letter and a few words from the staff of the firm, he heard that Anlong had a bad relationship with his brother in Ito City, and that he had witnessed Dora's little calculations over the years, and he felt that, If Ming Na traveled with her grandfather for a period of time, even if she couldn't compare with Bevin, who had studied martial arts with Xiao Tianjian for six years, it would add brilliance to Anlong and Dora's faces. Besides, they just went to the nearby Toure Mountains to visit their friends, and at most they stayed for a month or two before coming back. With Xiao Tianjian's wisdom, skills, and experience with children (?), they didn't have to worry about Ming Na being in danger.

So, Minna's plan to travel with her grandfather was settled.

Two days later, as soon as Ming Na walked out of the door with a small bag on her back, she was pulled aside by Marshall and carefully instructed: "Son, remember to listen to your grandfather on the road, going out is different from being at home, being naughty at home Trick or treat, the Count will take the time to teach you, but he won't leave you alone outside, so you have to be good-natured and don't cause trouble to the lord and make him angry."

To make him angry, I won't take her out next time. Thinking of this, Ming Na nodded solemnly: "I see. Grandpa Marshall should also take good care of himself."

Marshall was stunned for a while, and his eyes were a little wet: "Okay, child..."

"It's getting late, let's go quickly." Xiao Tianjian picked up the child's collar with a cold face, put her on the horse, turned back and said lightly, "The family will be handed over to you." Then he turned on his horse, Whip up. Minna loudly said goodbye to Marshall, but her voice was soon muffled by the sound of hooves.

========================I am the dividing line on the road =================== ===

Xiao Tianjian's friend lives in Tule Mountain, which is actually the same mountain range as Dunn, but to go to his house, he must go to Meyton first.

In the border city of Meyton, Minna has heard many times from her parents or from Marshall and Winnie, but she has never been there, so everything she sees is new. This place is more than twice the size of Edonia. It is said to be a city, but in fact it is more like a large town. From the grassland at the foot of the mountain to the half-mountain slope, there are many houses scattered here and there. Among them, the market at the foot of the mountain is the most lively. With it as the center, various shops, residential buildings and other buildings are scattered in all directions.

Meton has no city walls. The only defensive fortress is the former lord's castle. It's not a big place, and it won't be of much use in wars, and now this place is somewhat deserted because there is no lord. The entire city, or township, largely relies on the Ture Mountains behind it to protect itself.

A stream flows from Mount Toure, forming a large lake to the south of Maiton, and then flows out in the southeast direction, where it joins with another small river near the pier to form the Babe River, and the mouth of the sea is Matt Harbour. And this lake and river are also part of the Meton defense project.

It was midsummer at this time, and Meyton was full of green grass and lush flowers and trees. Under the sun, the clouds in the sky floated quietly, and there were hundreds of white sheep on the ground walking quietly and grazing. A light wind blew, and a few small flowers occasionally appeared in the green.

Ming Na sat in her grandfather's arms and rode to the grassland outside Maiton. As soon as she saw this scene, she immediately slipped off her horse, screamed and jumped on the grass, startling a few butterflies. She could feel how soft and thick the grass was under her feet, and how cool and pleasant the wind was blowing on her face. She lay down happily on the ground and looked back at her grandfather. Seeing that he was just smiling at herself, he did not stop her. , then he simply rolled, feeling that the grass was more comfortable than the bed at home.

The sheep not far away were bleating. Mingna heard the sound and looked over. Seeing that they were just eating grass quietly, she didn't pay any attention to her own intentions. She rolled her eyes and got up. The ground rushed towards the sheep, and the white animals fled away in shock. One of them didn't have time to escape, and was hugged by her, bleating in a hurry, but she just hugged the sheep's soft body, as if she was hugging a big pillow.

The sound of the sheep woke the owner who was sleeping nearby. Seeing this scene, he didn't mean to blame, but just laughed. Ming Na let go of the sheep a little embarrassed and hid behind Xiao Tianjian. The latter bowed as an accomplice, then smiled and picked up her granddaughter, mounted the horse, and went to the market.

The market is very lively. There are 60 or 70 shops alone, more than twice as many as Edonia. They sell not only local specialties, but also goods from Nuojia and goods from the south. Ming Na was walking down the street holding her grandfather's clothes, looking left and right, her eyes were almost too busy, but unfortunately Xiao Tianjian didn't give her any time to go shopping, what they have to do now is to find an inn.

The inn here is very different from what Minna has seen in Edonia and the wharf. It is not the kind of small and simple houses. They are all small buildings, ranging from two or three floors. They found a house with pale yellow walls, red roof, milky white doors and windows and a backyard, and opened a room.

When Ming Na entered the room, she only felt that it was bigger than her parents' bedroom. There were tables, chairs and bed cabinets in the room. The two beds were covered with clean white sheets, which seemed to be soft and comfortable. The first time she stayed at the hotel, she felt very fresh, she jumped on the bed with a cheer, but Xiao Tianjian said helplessly: "You just rolled on the ground just now, come down quickly."

Ming Na giggled a few times, then climbed to the edge of the window and looked out, her eyes suddenly lit up: "Grandpa, it's a lake! It's a lake!" She opened the window and leaned out, but He was quickly dragged back by Xiao Tianjian by the collar: "You're dying?! This is the second floor!" Ming Na stuck out her tongue and shrank her neck, but she couldn't help looking in the direction of the lake through the window.

Seeing that she liked it, Xiao Tianjian tidied things up and took her to the lake to settle dinner. Their meal was grilled fish. Xiao Tianjian went into the water himself, using his extraordinary eyesight and the speed of his hands, he quickly caught one fish after another. Ming Na used to play in the water next to her, and she was so excited that she wanted to catch a share, but she was so young, how could she have that ability? So Xiao Tianjian taught her to use a branch to strike a fish, but her eyesight was not enough and her skills were slow. It took a long time for her to strike a fish. It was Xiao Tianjian who took advantage of the injury and caught the fish quickly. fish.

Xiao Tianjian's skill in grilling fish is excellent, and he also knows how to use the juice of nearby fruits or grass to make the fish more delicious, making Minna almost swallow her tongue, and she is addicted to it. Xiao Tianjian said with a smile: "The knowledge of food is great. If you are interested, Grandpa will teach you slowly, lest you always think that roast chicken legs and orange cake are the most delicious things in the world."

Minna kept nodding, licking her fingers, skewering a raw fish on a stick, and learning to bake. Xiao Tianjian pointed while roasting his own. Although the fish cooked by Ming Na in the end was scorched on the outside and still had raw fish inside, it was barely edible.

They originally had this meal early, but they ate it until it was dark. The grandparents and grandchildren walked around the market with their bulging stomachs before returning to the inn where they stayed overnight.

Ming Na was so excited that after taking a bath, she kept jumping on the bed and running around in the store, listening to other guests chatting. Xiao Tianjian couldn't do anything about it. Minna twisted for a long time, remembering Marshall's instructions, and then she obediently lay down on the bed, but as soon as the light went out, she opened her eyes again, recalled the place she played today, and hid under the covers and laughed secretly.

At dawn the next day, they set off up the mountain. At first they took the wide mountain road that merchants often take, but in the middle they turned into a path, and soon they were far away from the main road, and the trees became denser and denser. Ming Na kept following Xiao Tianjian. Gradually, she felt a little out of breath and her legs were tired. Not long after she crossed the mountain, she could no longer support it any longer.

Xiao Tianjian had no choice but to carry his granddaughter on his back. He stretched out his finger to a dense forest in front of his left and said, "Did you see the woods over there? It's a big place with poisonous smog all year round, and people will die as soon as they breathe it in. But every year For three days in early May, the fog in the forest will become very thin, then, just put this in your mouth..." He turned his wrist, and a round green leaf appeared in his palm, "This is at the bottom of Lake Maiton. A type of algae that, when dried and in the mouth, can pass through the woods without incident. I always go from here to my friend's house, but unfortunately it's late this year and we can't get there and have to go the other way Road."

Minna asked curiously, "Where is that road?"

Xiao Tianjian smiled: "You'll find out later~IndoMTL.com~ is very exciting."

Ming Na blinked, very interested to know what kind of stimulation method it was, but no matter how much she asked, Xiao Tianjian couldn't answer.

Xiao Tianjian's foot strength and dexterity are more than ten times stronger than that of the little girl, and he reached the top of the mountain in less than two hours. The mountain wind blew, and the clouds gradually dispersed. Ming Na fought a cold war, but took a deep breath and sighed uncontrollably: "It's so big..."

In front of her eyes, is the whole picture of the entire Toure Mountains. It stretches for hundreds of miles from northeast to southwest. There are countless peaks of different sizes and heights standing there, some of which are so high that they reach into the clouds. Floating clouds surround, blocking the line of sight, making it impossible to see the bottom of the valley.

Xiao Tianjian took a deep breath: "It's really big and high, so no one can ever invade Maiton, and people there will be able to enjoy a peaceful life for hundreds of years. But... The place, things are completely different." He looked to the northeast, where there was a high mountain, and he knew that over there, it was the end of the natural danger of Mt. Toure.

Ming Na half understood, but she had a bigger question at this time: "Grandpa, didn't you say that we have to go to your friend's house by another way? But where is the way here? You won't Did you go wrong?" Indeed, this was the top of the mountain, and she could only see the cliff ahead and the way she came.

Xiao Tianjian retracted his gaze and smiled: "Yes, there is indeed a way here."
