Destiny Phoenix

Chapter 138 Sleepover
Feng Qingyao took a step back and hid behind the door.

After a while, a group of people galloped past.Judging from their attire, they should be officers and soldiers. They came from the opposite direction, as if they were going to the capital.

Not long after, they came back in a mighty way.

Not far from Feng Qingyao, they stopped, and a man dressed as a soldier said to the other man respectfully: "Lieutenant General, I have looked around, and there is no shop in the village. And the radius is tens of miles , just such a village, it will take about three hours for us to go to the next village.”

At three o'clock, the sky is bright!
The man who was called the deputy general thought for a moment, looked at the surrounding residents and said: "Ask someone, if you can stay for one night."

"Yes." The soldier got off his horse and walked towards a house.

Feng Qingyao looked outside the door.

The man on horseback raised his eyebrows, his eyes were willow leaves, and a mole under his lip was particularly eye-catching.Wearing a silver armor with a long knife on his waist, his whole body is filled with the killing spirit of returning from the battlefield.

For some reason, she vaguely felt that the man looked familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it before.

"My lord must be tired from the long journey." The woman's daughter came out, and said in a shy voice, "Ruyu poured the bath water for you, come in and take a bath and change clothes."

Feng Qingyao was startled, are all the girls in this village so proactive?

Covering her lips and coughing lightly, she purposely lowered her voice and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Miss. I have to get up early tomorrow, so I don't need to trouble you."

Make up your mind to wake up and leave tomorrow morning.

"Master, don't be polite. It's Ruyu's honor to serve you." As she said, Ruyu walked towards her.Judging from this posture, it is to serve her to take a bath.Her heart tightened, and she hurriedly took a few steps to avoid it, "There is a difference between men and women, I can do it by myself, girl, please go back." After finishing speaking, she went back to the house in three steps at a time, and locked the door from the inside up.

It seems that he has not slept well.

Feng Qingyao was hesitating whether to leave now or not. After driving for three consecutive days, her body was a little overwhelmed, and she thought about staying overnight and leaving at dawn tomorrow.

After making up her mind, she took out the dagger from her luggage and stuffed it under the pillow, and lay down with her clothes on.

He slept soundly until midnight, and after midnight, there was a rustling sound of the door bolt outside the house.

Feng Qingyao turned over and opened her eyes.

This family really has a problem!

She took out the dagger, leaped, and jumped off the bed.

After a while, the mother and daughter opened the door latch and tiptoed in.After entering the door, the two of them didn't immediately go forward to find Feng Qingyao, but stood at the door and whispered something.

Feng Qingyao pricked up her ears and listened carefully.

"Mother, why don't you forget it, I'm so scared." Ruyu whispered, wringing her fingers continuously.

"What do you know?" The woman reprimanded, probably because she was afraid of waking Feng Qingyao up, she deliberately took a look inside, her vision was too dim, she didn't see that Feng Qingyao was not on the bed, and continued: "Look at this village. , how can there be a decent man? If you don't listen to your mother, you will never get married in this life."

"But we don't even know who he is—"

"Listen to your mother, this young man is well-dressed, and you can tell that he is not from a poor family. Even if you follow him, even if you can't be married, it's better than marrying a poor man and suffering a lifetime of suffering here!"

Feng Qingyao let go of the dagger.

When she entered the village, she found that the village was dilapidated, but it was too outrageous to casually give her daughter to a stranger in order to get rid of poverty. "Aren't you afraid that if I leave this village, I will sell your daughter to a brothel, or throw her into the barren mountains to feed wolves?"
