Liang Meng cautiously laughed while reaching out and taking out the silver money from his cuffs.

"Please take these. ”

Liang Meng said and stuffed the silver money into the woman's hand. The woman took a step back in a panic, her hands swaying so hard that she did not take the money.

"Childe doesn't have to be like this. There is no need for it. ”

The kind and simple woman was blushed by Liang Meng's actions. Stammered and pushed.

"Take it. Or I'm upset. ”

One is embarrassed and resolutely refuses to accept it, and the other is full of apologies and must be sent.

After a few back and forth, the woman finally didn't resist Liang Meng, and after Liang Meng stuffed the silver money into her hand again, she didn't refuse again.

It's just that the rough and dark surface is still burning badly. The hands holding the silver coins were also pinched and pinched helplessly.

"This eldest sister, I bother to ask, will this city gate be open tonight?"

Liang Meng pointed to the city gate.

"Childe wants to go into the city?"

Seeing Liang Meng nodding, the woman sighed and shook her head distressedly for Liang Meng.

"The city gate has long been closed, and if the prince wants to enter the city, he can only wait for tomorrow. ”

Liang Meng cursed in his heart, looked up at the jet-black sky with a few stars, and sighed faintly.

Nima, it looks like she's going to stay in the wilderness.

"Does Childe have a place to live?"

Xu was because of the silver money that Liang Meng had just stuffed into her, and the woman inquired, even if it was good to help a little more.

Otherwise, this money is not at ease.

Hearing the woman's question, Liang Meng smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"If you don't dislike it, you can go to my house for a night and enter the city tomorrow. ”

There are two choices in front of me, one is the wilderness with the earth as the seat and the sky as the quilt. One is a comfortable bed with soft futons.

This, fools will choose the latter.

Of course, our hall master was not stupid, so he only pretended to be reserved and hesitated for so many seconds before nodding his head in agreement.

The woman also looked relieved.

It's good that the money in my hand is spent with peace of mind.

The woman's home was not far from the city walls, a small courtyard with a few mud houses with pitted walls.

The lights were on in the room.

"It's my old man. ”

The woman explained to Liang Meng with a smile. After speaking, he turned around and carefully closed the courtyard door.

"I'm back, old man. ”

While she was still in the courtyard, the woman shouted loudly, and her voice was loud and pleasant.

Liang Meng stood behind the woman, his gaze casually sweeping around the courtyard.

The faint candle flame in the house was not enough to see the situation in the yard, and Liang Meng couldn't help but take a few more glances at the very tall tree.

"Why is it so late today, I was going to look for you. Who is this?"

A hunchbacked old man walked out of the house, and asked after seeing Liang Meng in a joyful and honest voice.

"This boy wants to enter the city, but the city gate is closed, so he will stay at our house for one night tonight. ”

The woman invited Liang Meng into the house as she spoke, and the old man took the things from the woman's hand and followed her into the house.

The house was small, the roof was low, there was only a candle burning, and the corners were dim.

Two bowls of multigrain rice and two plates of vegetables that were not very large had already been placed on the square table.

The old man was an honest man, standing cramped by the door, and he didn't know where to put his hands and feet. Or the woman relieved him of his discomfort.

With a hearty smile, he told the old man to prepare another bowl of rice.

The old man had to order him to go out immediately.

"Don't mind, childe, my old man is stupid. ”

"Why. I would also like to thank my eldest sister for taking me in, otherwise I would have to stay in the wild tonight. ”

The old man came back quickly, and the woman beckoned Liang Meng to sit down and eat.

Liang Meng didn't dislike the roughness of the food, and he didn't excuse himself in embarrassment, so he sat down and ate happily.

During the meal, the old man just buried his head in eating and didn't say a word.

Fortunately, the woman was a talkative person, and asked Liang Meng what he was going to do when he entered the city.

Liang Meng didn't hide it, and bluntly told him that he was going to find the city lord of the tomb city.

"Childe is going to the tomb?"

The woman stopped her dishes and chopsticks and confirmed.

Liang Meng chewed on the not very delicious green vegetables in his mouth, looked at the woman and nodded.

"Childe knows the city lord?"

"I don't know. ”

Liang Meng swallowed the food and answered the woman's inquiry before putting the next chopsticks into his mouth.

"That son is looking for the lord of the city"

"Something. ”

Liang Meng felt that the woman had inquired too much, and her tone was not as gentle as Shicai.

The woman saw Liang Meng's impatience and smiled awkwardly.

"Childe, don't blame, because I, an old man, work in the city lord's house, so I asked a few more questions. ”

When Liang Meng heard that there was such a coincidence, he raised his head and glanced at the old man, but only saw a flat head mixed with a little white hair.

She was looking for some reason to enter the tomb, and the opportunity came.

"I wonder if my eldest brother can take me with him tomorrow. ”

The old man was suddenly clicked, looked up from the bowl in a daze, glanced at Liang Meng and turned his head to look at the woman, and then realized it.

"Oh, you idiot. ”

The woman smiled and raised her hand to gently pat the old man's arm, then turned her head to look at Liang Meng, and said.

"What's so difficult about this, tomorrow the son will go together. It's just that there are a lot of rules in the tomb, so don't go around when the son goes. ”

"Thank you, big sister. ”

Automatically ignoring the second half of the sentence, Liang Meng put down the dishes and chopsticks, clenched his hands into fists and thanked the woman, and then thanked the old man.

The old man was at a loss all of a sudden, and he couldn't hold the chopsticks. Nodding his head, uh-huh, uh-huh, he agreed to it randomly.

The woman laughed again and slapped the old man lightly.

The next day, as soon as the sky was slightly white, Liang Meng got up.

Not because she wasn't sleepy, but because the futon was so damp that it looked like it had been soaked in dew. There was also a musty smell.

Cover, smoked enough. If you don't cover it, it's very cold at night.

I got up early.

When I opened the door, the air was still damp. A cloud rose in the distance.

Liang Meng walked into the courtyard, stretched out his arms and kicked his legs, moved his muscles and bones, and walked around the not very wide courtyard.

Walking up to the tall tree, which was surprisingly tall, but the foliage was not very lush, and when you looked up, you could easily see the gray clouds through the cracks in the leaves.

Next to the tree, I don't know what to plant, but the dewy green leaves have small yellow flowers on them, and they are very cute.

There is nothing else in this courtyard besides these.

Liang Meng stood under the tree with his hands in his hands, looking out from afar, the gray clouds on the horizon did not show clear, gloomy, and looked like it was going to rain.

The back of Yun Xuchen suddenly flashed in front of him. In front of Yun Nian that day, he saw him standing still looking at the sky like this.

What was he thinking at the time?

Liang Meng followed the old man all the way to the back door of the tomb.

Although this old man is working in the tomb, he is only doing some rough work in the kitchen.

It is said that at the age of the old man, he should have sent home a few taels of silver. But the old man is a rare honest duty, so he has been staying in the tomb.

As soon as he entered through the back door, the old man stopped, turned around and lowered his head to Liang Meng, hesitantly.
