35.Chapter 35: Attacked
CHAPTER XXXV
Early in the morning of the second day, Shi'er was surprised to find that Lin Muyi and Xiao Qinping were sitting quietly at a table eating breakfast, very happy.
Shi'er has always been worried that Lin Muyi promised to help Qing'er on the surface, but in fact, he didn't want to, and he would embarrass Qing'er and his party again, but at this time, it seemed that Lin Muyi sat at the same table with Qing'er and Ah Luan very naturally early in the morning, and it seemed that there was nothing unhappy, which made Shi'er's heart finally let go, and sat happily next to Lin Muyi, while talking and laughing with Xiao Qin, while eating his own breakfast, he couldn't keep his mouth together.
Lin Mu looked at it in his eyes, but he frowned secretly, although this child is very intelligent and resolute, but he is extremely simple in the world, and he is easy to trust others. He didn't want to be involved too much in this matter, so he didn't want him to know the truth of this matter, and let Xiao Qin still dress up as his daughter's family, which was also to help Xiao Qin cover his identity. But he also didn't want to have any contact with Xiao Qin again. At this time, seeing that he was still affectionate to Xiao Qin, without a trace of suspicion, his heart was even more unhappy.
Fortunately, as long as Xiao Qin and his party are safely sent back to the capital of the country of Xiao, it will be over, and after that, he will either continue to travel, or take Shi'er back to the Yunlan Realm, and he will no longer have anything to do with this Xiao Qin, and he will never have any chance to have any contact. Shi'er is still young, I'm afraid that if I don't see this Xiao Qin for a few months, I will forget about it.
It's just that Shi'er's temperament will definitely change in the future, where can he believe in anyone with all his heart?
Xiao Qin was also nervous about eating a meal, although he responded that Lin Muyi was far away from Shi'er, he couldn't stop Shi'er from leaning over by himself. He couldn't keep a straight face and really ignore it.
Besides, Xiao Qin has a little bit of Jiujiu in his heart.
He knew that Lin Muyi didn't have a good impression of him as a person, but he was still willing to help him, I am afraid that most of the reason was to pick up his children at that time. Lin Muyi didn't want him to continue to deceive Shi'er, but he didn't want Shi'er to be sad and sad to know that he had been deceived and framed. Speaking of which, this Lin Muyi is cold and cold on the surface, but in private, it hurts the child to the bone. Now that he knew the weight of Shi'er in Lin Muyi's mind, Xiao Qin couldn't let go of Shi'er's opportunity. As long as he can take care of Shi'er, is he still worried that Lin Mu will not give in?
So while he carefully observed Lin Muyi's reaction, he was still affectionate to Shi'er. Although he is only two years older than Shi'er, he is extremely harmonious in life, and he is the best at looking at people's eyes and dishes. Shi'er was so ignorant, so naturally he was coaxed into a smile by his words.
Lin Muyi looked at Shi'er's simple appearance, it was simple to say, but in fact, he was full of stupidity, and he was even more annoying, and it was not easy to attack, so he only held back the anger in his stomach.
In this way, the meal was enjoyed on the surface, and secretly each had his own thoughts, only Shi'er himself was very satisfied, and even the other passengers around him deliberately avoided the frightened expressions on the table.
-
There was nothing to say all the way, but the sea was rare and calm. In the blink of an eye, two more days passed, and the ship finally docked.
After dropping anchor and setting up a sampan, everyone on board couldn't wait to squeeze off the boat. Along the way, they encountered water bandits and were rescued by luck, everyone was panicked, and the casualties were not serious, only the owner of the ship was killed, and the rest of the people were frightened and injured, but they were all safe for their lives. In the past few days, everyone has been hiding in the boat, not going out, packing up early, just waiting for the ship to dock, and then scrambling to get off the boat and go their separate ways. As for how to deal with the aftermath of the ship's owner's murder, and when the robbers will report to the officer, it is the ship's sailors' business, and they will not go to the meeting, lest they get into any more trouble.
And the whereabouts of those captured water thieves seem to have been completely forgotten, and no one cares.
Lin Muyi looked at the crowds in front of him, unwilling to move forward, and only took the pickers to the back, Xiao Qin and his party naturally followed him honestly. When the other passengers were almost gone, the group got off the boat without hurrying.
got off the boat and got out of the dock, Xiao Qin didn't dare to delay, but he was afraid that his whereabouts had been targeted, so he ordered Ah Luan to buy two carriages and a few horses, and cautiously told Lin Muyi, so he packed his line and went on the road, and he didn't stay for a day in this famous port city in the country of Xiao.
Lin Muyi had no complaints about such an arrangement. In the sea where there is no village in front of the village and no shop at both ends, it can be found by the opposite person, not to mention that this country has Xiao, the dock where people come and go, and everyone goes ashore in plain sight. Thinking about it, it was only a matter of time before Xiao Qin's identities were discovered and caught up by the pursuers.
Therefore, Xiao Qin and his party hurried away and came to ask him what he meant, but he just nodded and got into the carriage that Ah Luan bought.
The group was divided into two carriages, Xiao Qin's mother and son and maid sat on one, Lin Muyi and Shi'er took one, and a few small people outside took turns to catch the car.
is not only in a hurry, but also to avoid pursuit, and naturally it is not so comfortable along the way. Ah Luan led the way, and did not dare to take the official road, all the way only to the remote road, the road is naturally not as good as the official road, the road is bumpy, not to mention, the roadside is less populated, often miss the accommodation, see this wild rest is also a common thing.
Lin Muyi didn't pay much attention to these, but he was a little worried that he couldn't stand it. Looking at the pickers again, although the pickers are small, the body and bones are strong, and the road is bumpy down, and the wind and food are sleeping in the open, this child is like no one. Lin Muyi also put his mind at ease and didn't think about it anymore.
is Shi'er, sitting in the carriage with Lin Muyi every day, as if returning to the previous scene of crossing the sea with Lin Muyi by boat. Lin Muyi only closed his eyes every day to recuperate, meditate and practice, and he was bored in the carriage. Shi'er wants to go out to ride a big horse, wants to see the scenery outside, and even wants to go out with Sister Qing'er. But if he really wanted to let him out, he was reluctant to leave Lin Muyi's side. As long as he can stay by Lin Muyi's side, even if he sits in a daze every day, it is good.
But when the carriage stopped to rest, he was able to get out of the carriage and talk to Sister Qing'er, so that he felt less bored.
Xiao Qin pondered, this will not work. He begged Lin Muyi to come, and he didn't put it there as an ornament. This trip to the capital Lanchuan, all the way to the journey of more than half a month, he must have a good relationship with Lin Muyi for more than half a month. The situation in the capital is now severe, and it is best to persuade Lin Muyi to be willing to help him when he arrives in the capital, so that he can have the bottom in his heart.
I don't know why, in fact, Xiao Qin doesn't know Lin Muyi's details, and he doesn't know how much ability he has. But Xiao Qin intuitively felt that Lin Muyi was by no means simple and unfathomable. If he can help him, Xiao Qin believes that what he asks for will be successful.
In such a plan, although Lin Muyi had warned Xiao Qin not to provoke Shi'er again, Xiao Qin only vaguely agreed. On this day, everyone had just had lunch, rested and prepared to go on the road, Xiao Qin thought twice, came to Lin Muyi's carriage, stood still, took a deep breath, and then called crisply: "Brother Shi'er!"
Shi'er heard his voice, hurriedly lifted the curtain, and responded, "Sister Qing'er, are you coming to play with me?"
Xiao Qin nodded, but looked at Lin Muyi in the carriage with great apprehension.
Shi'er was also a little embarrassed, looked back at Lin Muyi, and hesitated to speak: "Sir?"
Lin Muyi was closing his eyes to recuperate, opening his eyes, his gaze was like electricity, sweeping over Xiao Qin, Xiao Qin couldn't help but be excited, and when he looked again, Lin Muyi had already retracted his gaze and closed his eyes again: "Since you're here, let's see you." ”
Xiao Qin was overjoyed, so he got into the car with the hand that Shi'er stretched out and got into the carriage.
Because the time was urgent, and Xiao Qin didn't want to be too eye-catching, the two carriages that Ah Luan bought were just ordinary, not very gorgeous and comfortable, and the carriages were not very spacious. It's just that I was afraid that a few people would not be able to stand the bumps, so they spread thick mats in the carriage. At this time, a Xiao Qin was squeezed in, and the carriage was a little crowded when he boarded.
After entering the carriage, Xiao Qin and Shi'er squeezed to one side, and Lin Muyi sat on the other side, still closing his eyes and recuperating. Xiao Qin saw that he had his eyes closed, and he didn't dare to make a mistake, so he only bit his ears quietly.
"Sir looks cold on weekdays, doesn't talk to people much, and only allows you to sit in the same carriage with him. Sir treats you so well. Qing'er said.
When Shi'er heard this, her face flushed: "Sir treats me very well! Sir is very good, but he doesn't like to talk much." Sir has something to do, let's not quarrel with him. ”
Xiao Qin secretly looked at Lin Muyi again, and saw that he was just motionless with his eyes closed, and he didn't know what to do. I had to lower my voice again: "You call him sir, is he your teacher?"
"Teacher?" Shi'er was a little confused. This Mingtai Gate does not need this kind of statement. The master in the school asked their students to call him teacher, but Lin Muyi and the master were different.
Xiao Qin saw his disapproving look, and remembered that Shi'er's swordsmanship was exquisite, and he learned it from Lin Muyi, so he changed his question: "Then he is your master?"
Shi'er heard Xiao Qin say that Lin Muyi was his master, so he was a little happy, and was about to agree, but he remembered what happened before.
Lin Muyi promised to teach him to practice swordsmanship before, but he refused to accept him as an apprentice, let alone call him master, and even scolded him fiercely for this. Thinking of this, Shi'er couldn't help but feel a little sad again.
He was always afraid that Lin Muyi would not accept him because his qualifications were too poor. He wanted to practice his sword well, and when he became stronger, maybe Lin Mu would change his mind when he saw it, and he would be willing to accept him as an apprentice. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look forward to it again, he was now very familiar with swordsmanship, I wonder if Lin Muyi was willing to accept him as an apprentice?
The two of them muttered quietly, and Lin Mu over there listened to them all. As soon as Lin Mu heard that the two of them were talking, the more they talked, the more they were afraid that they would continue to talk, and Shi'er saw that Xiao Qin was going to take out the details, so he opened his eyes.
Shi'er immediately noticed that Lin Mu came over, and his eyes lit up: "Sir!"
Lin Mu nodded a little, and was about to speak, when suddenly his expression changed, he stopped talking, waved his hand again, signaled the two of them not to make a sound, and listened attentively.
Xiao Qin only felt his heart skip a beat, and he wanted to ask, but he didn't dare to disobey Lin Muyi.
Lin Muyi's face has always been as calm as water, and he can't see anything. After listening for a moment, he spoke: "Here we are." ”
I only heard a scream outside the carriage, and then there was a "whoosh" sound of arrows breaking through the air, aggressively nailed to the wall of the carriage, and the sharp arrow tips came out through the wall, flashing cold.
