My stepmother is here, all the rebellious sons and evildoers should kneel down!

"Dad, don't scare them. Just eat it. This fruit is for people to eat. That piece of land doesn't grow any crops. Why bother about it so much?"

The masked man smiled, and the curve of his mouth was very beautiful.

Wen Qiqi looked at Die Jiuhe and Xinyi: "He is right, eat!"

"kindness!"

Xinyi and Diejiu put the fruit into their mouths again, but they felt that the taste had changed...

Fortunately, the fish soup was ready quickly.

The man served a bowl to the octogenarian. The old man sniffed it and said with disdain: "Fish soup only needs to be boiled in water, but salt and coriander are added. How can it be eaten by humans?"

There was only coriander in the yard, so Die Jiu put some in. She was originally worried that the taste would not be good enough, but unexpectedly, the old man said that the taste was messed up.

"not bad."

The masked man took a sip and nodded approvingly: "After all, you are girls, and the things you make are different from what I make. Whoever marries you in the future will be in for a treat."

The three of them simply ignored the old man's expression and each filled a bowl of fish soup and started drinking.

The fish is really fresh. Even though the seasoning is not enough, the fish soup still tastes delicious...

Wen Qiqi drank a bowl and then filled another half bowl.

The man drank three full bowls, and then felt a little full, so he sat down and chatted with the three of them.

When he learned that Wen Qiqi and the two maids were from the capital, he seemed very interested.

"The capital? That's a great place! Although I've never been there, I'd like to see the world."

"Have you always lived in this mountain?" Wen Qiqi asked subconsciously.

Before the man could speak, the octogenarian said, "He is my son, the son of the mountain! If he doesn't live in the mountain, where else can he go? Don't try to take his soul away!"

"Ha ha……"

Die Jiu was full and energetic at this time, so she just started to joke with the old man.

"Uncle, don't be so selfish! Your son has grown up and wants to get married! In the future, maybe he will really go with his wife... There are beautiful scenery everywhere in the world."

"Go away...you are such an annoying girl."

The old man expressed his disgust, but he rarely showed a smile.

Die Jiu came over and said she would help him add more fish soup, and asked curiously: "Uncle, you can't see, why don't you find a doctor to treat it?"

"It's incurable. I couldn't see since I came out of my mother's womb."

As the old man spoke, a sparrow flew onto the eaves of the hut.

He immediately clasped his hands together, placed them near his mouth, and then puffed out his cheeks and blew hard. A strange sound came out from between his fingers, and the sparrow swayed and landed at the old man's feet...

"It's good to fill your stomach if you burn it at night."

The old man threw the sparrow into the house with skillful movements and in one go.

Die Jiu stared with her eyes wide open.

"Wow, you are really good! My elder brother uses a flute to tame the beast, but you are really good. You can just use your hands as a whistle. This is your unique skill. Please teach me... If I learn it, my lady will be able to eat meat every day."

The old man pushed Die Jiu away.

Die Jiu was not angry, and went up to her and continued to chatter.

The old man thought she was noisy and said that he would never tell anyone about this skill...

Seeing this, Die Jiu said directly: "If you teach me, when I return to the capital, I will let my daughter hire the best doctor for you!"

"What can you do after seeing it? You girl!"

The old man pointed to the front and back of the house and said, "They are all dead. Isn't it uncomfortable to see them?"

"Uncomfortable? Do you know all the people in these graves? Is this your family's ancestral grave? Oh, sir, your family is also a wealthy one... No, your family is as big as an army!"

As soon as Die Jiu finished speaking, the old man suddenly changed his face!

"Get out! Get out now!"

Die Jiu was stunned: "Why do you turn against me so quickly?"

The old man shouted at the masked man, "Xiao Nian, let the three of them leave immediately... Otherwise, I will immediately summon wild wolves to kill the three of them without leaving any bones!"

After saying this, the old man clasped his hands together and put them to his mouth again!

When Die Jiu saw this, she was so scared that she quickly said, "No, no, no, no, we can afford to provoke your temper, but we can also avoid it!"

After saying that, she ran to Wen Qiqi and Xinyi and said repeatedly: "Miss, let's go! Let's not risk our lives again...Miss, let's go! I don't think I'm joking."

The masked man shook his head helplessly: "Forget it, my father has always been like this! It's getting late, I won't keep you... I'll take you across the hill right now!"

The octogenarian did not stop them. Obviously, he did not want the three girls to be fed to the wolves, he just didn't want them to stay here any longer.

"Brother Nian!"

The three followed the masked man and started climbing the mountain again, but this time, he led the three to find a thatched road, which saved them some energy.

The man turned around and looked at Wen Qiqi: "What's the matter?"

"Brother Nian, I want to ask you...Have you really lived here since you were a child?" Wen Qiqi really felt that his temperament did not seem like that of someone who grew up in the mountains.

Moreover, the octogenarian was in a hurry to drive them away, obviously not wanting them to ask more questions.

"nature."

The man nodded and looked at the setting sun.

"My father and I... depend on each other!"

"Your father is blind and small, but you were born with this sign... I don't want to be close to my father and son at all."

Die Jiu said bluntly: "Look at how he resists outsiders. He is afraid that we will ask too many questions. Maybe you were picked up when you were a child."

"No nonsense!"

Wen Qiqi felt more and more that Die Jiu had been letting herself go more and more since leaving the capital.

Die Jiu wiped the sweat off her face and instantly turned into a little cat...

"Miss, I'm not talking nonsense! Do you think Brother Nian and Master are alike?"

"Not like."

Wen Qiqi also spoke honestly.

The masked man smiled cheerfully: "Maybe, I look like my mother."

"Don't you remember what your mother looks like?"

Wen Qiqi asked subconsciously.

The masked man shook his head: "My mother died early. A few years ago, I fell again... I can't remember it."

"Did you fall once?" "Yes! It was a heavy fall, and I almost died... I fell from the cliff over in East City! But it doesn't matter, if you survive a disaster, you will have good fortune in the future... For example, God let me meet you three beautiful fairy girls at the same time, is this... considered a blessing in the future?"

The masked man started flirting again. The three of them had already reached the top of the mountain, and Wen Qiqi was about to ask the man one last question.

Before she could speak, the masked man suddenly said, "I know what you want to ask. Those graves... who is buried there has nothing to do with you. From now on, don't come to see me again, understand?"

"All right!"

Wen Qiqi didn't want to force her, so she nodded and agreed.

The man smiled, with a hint of reluctance in his eyes. He then told them to go back quickly and turned away.

When he returned to the hut, the octogenarian was standing at the door with his cane, waiting for him to come back.

"Did you do it?"

"No."

"I know you can't bear to let her go... But no matter how beautiful a girl is, if she returns alive, the news will leak out. You and I can't stay here for long."
