Oh my god, this is a bolt from the blue! A true heiress of metaphysics!
Chapter 254 A Lucky Face
Chapter 254 A Face Full of Fortune
After the barking of the dogs, the sounds of people shouting came one after another, seemingly quite intense.
Xie Yun was still sleeping. Shi Xiaxia glanced at her, then left the mud house, jumped onto a tree branch, and looked towards the village.
More than ten people were surrounded by villagers, and the two sides continued to argue.
"Qiao Zihao?!" Shi Xiaxia was utterly astonished when she saw one of them.
Why is he here? !
But it's good that they're here; it's a good opportunity to take Xie Yun back with us.
Shi Xiaxia curled the corners of her lips and jumped down from the tree.
"Sister Xie? Sister Xie, wake up!" Shi Xiaxia came to the mud house and woke Xie Yun up.
"Xiaxia, what's wrong?" Xie Yun opened his eyes and looked at Shi Xiaxia groggily.
"Qiao Zihao is here. Let him take you back," Shi Xiaxia said as she packed her things.
She saw the mask that Mai Miao had given her, thought for a moment, and then put it on.
The village's situation is still unclear, and Shi Xiaxia doesn't plan to leave for the time being. However, if she were recognized and posted online, it would cause some trouble.
As for the bronze sword used to suppress the five ghosts, it was too big to fit in her backpack, so Shi Xiaxia simply held it in her hand.
She carried the weakened Xie Yun on her back with one hand, and with her bag and bronze sword in the other, she walked towards the village.
"Xiaxia, put me down, I can walk by myself." Xie Yun was worried that Xiaxia would get tired.
“I can carry you, but your leg is injured, so it’s faster for me to carry you.”
Shi Xiaxia said casually, "Besides, Qiao Zihao has already arrived at the village and is arguing with the villagers. It would be terrible if we arrived late and a fight broke out."
Xie Yun immediately lay obediently on her back.
When Shi Xiaxia carried Xie Yun to the village, Qiao Zihao and his group were arguing fiercely with the villagers. Some villagers had even taken out their farm tools and were glaring at Qiao Zihao.
"Ahem!" Shi Xiaxia coughed lightly twice as she approached and saw that no one was paying attention to them.
These two sounds alone attracted the attention of some villagers.
When they saw Shi Xiaxia wearing a mask and Xie Yun on her back, they were stunned for a moment, then immediately shouted, "It's Xie Yun! Uncle Xie, it's your daughter!"
The villager shouted this, and everyone immediately stopped arguing and looked at Shi Xiaxia.
Xiaxia was wearing a mask, which looked extremely strange. They didn't know what was going on and looked at her warily.
The atmosphere became extremely quiet for a moment, and no one spoke.
At this moment, someone noticed the bronze sword in Shi Xiaxia's hand and immediately pointed at it, exclaiming, "It's...it's the sword that suppressed the Five Ghost Women! Look! That's the sword that suppressed the Five Ghost Women! They released the Five Ghost Women!"
After that person shouted, everyone immediately retreated, and no one dared to approach Shi Xiaxia and Xie Yun again.
"Uncle and Aunt, you've misunderstood."
Shi Xiaxia glanced at the bronze sword in her hand and said to everyone with a smile, "I am a metaphysician invited by this gentleman. I foresaw that Xie Yun would be in trouble, so I came to save her."
Xie Yun was trapped by the Five Ghost Women, so I killed them and rescued Xie Yun. The Five Ghost Women's souls had already dissipated. I thought this sword was quite good, so I drew it.
"this......"
The villagers looked at each other, their eyes filled with doubt and surprise.
“This…master,”
At this moment, a middle-aged man in his fifties stepped out from the crowd. He looked Shi Xiaxia up and down and said, "Is what you said true?"
"Of course it's true. You can go and see for yourselves at that mud house."
Shi Xiaxia said frankly, "There are no ghosts or monsters there anymore."
After Shi Xiaxia finished speaking, the villagers looked at each other again.
But no one moved, and no one volunteered to go and check.
"Xiaxia!" Qiao Zihao emerged from the villagers' encirclement and came to Shi Xiaxia's side.
"Sister Xie, how are you?" Qiao Zihao looked at Xie Yun on Shi Xiaxia's back.
"It's alright." Xie Yun smiled at Qiao Zihao, telling him not to worry too much.
"Now that Xie Yun has been rescued,"
At this moment, an old man in his sixties, with a hunched back, came out from among the villagers: "Then let's pick another auspicious day and let her marry Dazhuang."
Shi Xiaxia glanced at the villagers, identified a few people, and then put Xie Yun on the ground, asking Qiao Zihao to help her up first.
Shi Xiaxia smiled and said, "If you all believe in my identity, I have a few words to say."
"You want to stop Xie Yun from getting married?" The old man immediately looked at Shi Xiaxia, as if he would call people to beat her if she dared to say yes.
"Of course not,"
Shi Xiaxia waved her hand: "Uncle, you've misunderstood me."
After Shi Xiaxia said no, the old man's expression softened a bit, but his tone was still not good: "Since it's not true, then leave quickly, our village doesn't welcome you!"
Seeing that he didn't want to talk to her, Shi Xiaxia turned directly to Xie Yun's parents.
She smiled and said, "You two must be Xie Yun's father and mother! You have such auspicious looks!"
"Pooh!"
Xie Yun's father, Xie Datong, spat and cursed, "What kind of auspicious appearance?! You're probably not a real master, are you?"
"That's right!"
Xie Yun's mother, Wang Qi, also looked unhappy. Since Xie Yun came back, their family hasn't had a single peaceful day!
"this......"
Shi Xiaxia's expression stiffened for a moment. She glanced at Xie Yun and hesitated, saying, "There are some things I don't know whether I should say or not, since this concerns Xie Yun."
Shi Xiaxia's hesitant demeanor aroused Xie Datong and Wang Qi's suspicions.
They exchanged glances, somewhat believing in Shi Xiaxia's abilities. After all, someone who could take the bronze sword from the Five Ghosts Woman unharmed was no ordinary person!
She also said that she and her husband were blessed. Could it be that something happened that washed away their good fortune?
Xie Datong said to Shi Xiaxia, "You go first."
"Is such that,"
Shi Xiaxia coughed lightly, apologized to Xie Yun, and then looked at Xie Datong and Wang Qi, saying, "Has your family been having a rough time since Xie Yun was born?"
After Shi Xiaxia finished speaking, Xie Datong and Wang Qi were both lost in their memories.
Wang Qi spoke first: "It seems so. A few days after I gave birth to Xie Yun, I fell while doing farm work in the fields and broke my leg!"
After Wang Qi finished speaking, he showed Shi Xiaxia her legs.
Because of the fracture and the lack of proper treatment, Wang Qi's leg has been left with some disability, and she still walks with a limp.
After hearing what Wang Qi said, Xie Datong remembered something and quickly added, "My luck at cards was terrible those two days too. I lost a lot of money! I even lost a cow!"
