396 Temptation

After a moment of confusion, Xu Wen immediately reacted.

A person's name instantly popped into his mind, and then he felt a burst of joy in his heart.

He forced his composure and looked at the letter in his hand, his brow furrowed when his eyes touched the handwriting.

This is not Lian Tianqing's word, nor is it Lian Linlin's.

Lian Tianqing is very good at changing fonts, and Xu Wen has seen his handwriting, and there are no less than ten kinds.

But after looking at it for a long time, Xu Wen can see some similarities in these differences.

The words are like their people, and even Tianqing does not deliberately hide it, and there will always be some uninhibited temperament between the strokes of the brush.

Therefore, when creating freely, Lian Tianqing is best at walking grass, hearty, flowing water constantly, and the real demeanor of everyone.

However, Lian Tianqing rarely writes like this, only once when he was in a very bad mood for some reason, and he wrote for a long time in the room. That was the time, Xu Wen completely saw Lian Tianqing's words, and he would never be wrong again.

So he can be very sure now that this letter was definitely not written by Lian Tianqing.

Who would that be?

The words on the letter are in the standard pavilion style, the most impersonal kind, and the content is also very short.

"The first three-way intersection in Longtou Village. Alone. ”

There is no payment.

Xu San saw it next to him, his brows suddenly furrowed, and he said, "No head, no brain, I don't know what arrangements the other party has, I can't go!"

On the other hand, Xu Wen did not speak.

Xu San knew him very well, and suddenly became vigilant: "You won't go, will you?"

"This letter is from me by name, who is the person who delivered the letter?" Xu Wen pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked Qiao Zhi.

"It's a child from the village, more than two years old, and he can't speak very well. However, the three words of Yan 14 are very clear, and I feel that someone specially taught them. Oh, and this. Qiao Zhi suddenly remembered something, took out something from his arms and handed it to Xu Wen, "This is the child's reward for sending a letter, a osmanthus candy." He ate the candy, and I grabbed the candy wrapper. ”

"This is the osmanthus candy of Ren Benzhai!" Xu Wen's eyes widened when he saw the pattern on the candy paper.

Renbenzhai is a sugar shop in Yushui County, most famous for osmanthus candy. When Xu asked about the Yushui County test, in addition to bringing a cart of paper to Lian Linlin, he also brought some other jewelry, candy and other things that girls like. Among them is the osmanthus candy of Renbenzhai.

After bringing it back, Lian Linlin really likes it very much, and she always squints her eyes very happily when she eats, so that the people who watch her eat next to her will also feel enjoyable.

A girl like her would never eat alone, and if she thought it was delicious, she would share it with her brothers. Sometimes Xu Wen did a good job, and suddenly even Lin Lin would run over and open his mouth to him, "Ah"

One time.

At this time, Xu Wen will definitely follow with an "ah", so that a piece of sugar will be stuffed into his mouth. The fragrance is sweet and soft, and when you eat it, it will have a floral fragrance from the base of your tongue, and the sweetness seems to seep into your heart all the time.

Sometimes Xu Wen would accidentally see Lian Tianqing being fed. At this time, the middle-aged man with a serious expression tried his best to maintain his posture, but Xu Wen found that the corners of his mouth were curled as soon as he turned his back, and he was obviously sweetened.

Thinking of those days, Xu Wen couldn't help but smile, and carefully flattened the piece of candy wrapper and spread it out on his hand.

"If there's no movement when I get there, I'll go over. Xu Wen said to Xu San.

Xu San was silent when he saw the piece of candy wrapper, of course he had also eaten the little sister's candy at the beginning. He nodded and asked Xu solemnly, "No matter what, you still have to be careful." ”

"Hmm!" Xu Wen nodded vigorously.

When they received the letter, they had a hunch, and sure enough, when they arrived, there was still no movement outside the village, as if the bandits had all forgotten about it.

Xu Wen did not take it lightly, and arranged shifts for everyone in the Ximo team with Xu San, and then he got up at the right time and walked out of the village alone.

Xu San looked at him from behind, and suddenly hurried a few steps to Xu Wen's side: "I'll go with you, if it's really not dangerous, you will step forward alone." He said beyond question.

"Hmm. Xu Wen looked at him, smiled slightly, and did not refuse.

There are many people in the village, it is very lively, and when you walk out of the village, the surroundings are deserted in an instant.

It was very cold in the mountains, and gusts of mountain wind whistled by, blowing Xu Wen and Xu San shrunk their necks together - they wore a lot, not cold, but a conditioned reflex.

The two looked at each other and laughed together.

"I've never seen a mountain this big. Xu San said.

"I've seen it in paintings, but it's the first time I've come in and walked in this mountain. Xu asked.

"I've seen it from Master. Xu San also realized this when he mentioned it.

The two looked up together, looked at the black shadow in front of them, and unconsciously stopped together.

"If I just look at the paintings, I really didn't expect the mountains to be like this. But when I looked at the mountain, I felt that the mountain should indeed be like that. Xu San looked up and said with emotion.

When Xu Wen heard this, he couldn't help but glance back at him.

"What do you think I'm doing?" Xu San asked.

"I think you've robbed me of my words. Xu asked.

"Hahahaha. Xu San laughed heartily.

"It's been a long time since I've seen you smile so much. I thought you weren't very happy all along. Xu asked.

"Well, it was kind of at first. Xu San didn't deny it, "It's a pity that I can't take the apprenticeship test, but it won't take long to get better, and it's luck to be able to enter this team, and the more I go, the more I feel that it's the same thing whether to take the apprenticeship test or not, I don't understand anything, what if I pass the test." ”

He raised his head again, looked up at the mountain, and said softly, "What's more, I now feel that it is actually a pity to stay in Jiangnan and miss such a scenery for the apprenticeship test." ”

In a few words, the two of them had seen the three-way intersection ahead.

The moonlight shines through the sparse branches, casting a blur of light and shadow on the yellow earth. In the white light, the ground was empty, and there was no one.

The two of them stopped together, looked at each other, and looked forward again.

There was a crooked-necked tree at the intersection, and a ray of moonlight fell and shone on the front of the trunk.

"There seems to be words on the bark?" Xu San squinted.

"Go over and see. Xu Wen made sure that there was no one around, so he walked over there first, and soon the two of them saw the words carved on the bark of the tree.

"Walk along this road fifty-eight feet. It was still in the handwriting of the man who wrote the letter, with an arrow pointing to it.

"Are you leaving?" asked Xu San.

"Let's go. Xu Wen looked in that direction for a while, nodded and said, "You go back and talk to the craftsman first......

Xu Wen didn't finish speaking, but was already interrupted by Xu San, "I'm with you." I see you left a note for the craftsman. ”

Xu San's tone was resolute, and Xu Wen did not refuse again. The two of them continued to walk along the bark, and the man calculated accurately, and sure enough, he saw a fork in the road at the position of fifty-eight zhang - it was said to be a fork in the road, but in fact no one had paved it, but there were many people who walked by, and there were some traces of it.

There was another message at the fork in the road, pointing out the direction they were going to go next.

The two of them hung their hearts, moving forward step by step, and wanted to retreat several times, Xu Wen and Xu San both thought of the candy paper and decided to hold on for a while.

After walking for a long time, and with some openings in their clothes from the branches, they finally crossed a hill and saw a new col and some lights.

There are people living here!

The two brothers cheered up together and quickened their pace.

The two of them came to the pass, raised their heads, and saw a row of five kilns under the lights, although the light was extremely dim, they could also see that they were much more exquisite than Longtou Village.

This shape made a name appear in the hearts of the two of them at the same time, and their bodies froze instantly, and their steps froze.

Wouldn't they? They were led to the bandits' stronghold, Wuyao Village?

Just as they were hesitating, a group of people poured out of the gate of Wuyao Village, and a noisy cry came clearly from there: "They're coming, they're coming!"
