Chapter 381: The Chase
It may be because I went to the world of "Camel Xiangzi" some time ago to "remember the bittersweet and sweet" for a while, so I signed a day of Zhuang Yan, although I felt my wrist was sore, but the whole person did not feel very tired.
Compared with the previous signing meeting, the workload this time has increased unabated, but Zhuang Yan feels more relaxed than before.
When I went back, I still drove the car by Zhuang Yan, and when I got home, I took a comfortable bath, and then made myself a glass of milk, and only went to sleep after drinking.
……
"Dog, look over there, there's someone driving camels!"
When Zhuang Yan opened his eyes, there was a child's voice in his ears, he seemed to be in a backward village, low houses, some of which still had cooking smoke, in addition to the sound of children, there were also dogs barking.
The one who was talking next to him just now was a little fat man, with a muddy face. But if it is really in the world of camel Xiangzi, this little fat man should be regarded as the child of a big family, after all, the children in the average family are not so fat.
He looked in the direction of the little fat man's finger, and there were three camels at the entrance of the village lined up and walking towards the village, and in front of the camels walked a man, wearing a pair of torn military trousers, which was pulled up to half a length, with a single coat around his neck, and his sleeves twisted into a knot, and carried behind him like a burden.
Zhuang Yan was happy in his heart, it was Xiangzi, he escaped, although he knew that he would definitely escape according to the plot, but the military camp was still happy for him when he saw him again now.
Xiangzi walked past him and the little fat man with the camel, it seemed that Xiangzi was tall and the camel was taller, and Zhuang Yan realized that he should be a child like the little fat man.
The main road in the village is not in good condition, and the pig and horse urine converge into a small water beach, and Shoko walks cautiously with the camel. After walking for a while, I stopped at a house that looked more spacious than the other houses.
"Color! color!"
Like an old camel keeper, Shoko called the camel to kneel, and then sat down generously under a small willow tree.
There are many people in the village, all looking in the direction of Xiangzi, Zhuang Yan is also looking, and he even unconsciously walks in the direction of Xiangzi. The little fat man hurriedly grabbed him, "Dog, don't go, you're a weirdo." ”
Zhuang Yan ignored the little fat man, walked to a wall not far from Xiangzi and leaned against it, he didn't want to communicate with Xiangzi, he just wanted to get closer and see the development of the story behind.
If he remembered correctly, it was here that Shoko bought three camels for an old man in the village.
Sure enough, after a while, an old man came out of the courtyard.
Xiangzi saw the old man come out and said, "Old man, the water is ready, right?"
The old man looked at Xiangzi and the three camels for a long time, and then said, "Where did the water come from?"
"West. ”
"Is there a soldier in the west?"
……
Xiangzi told him about being caught and then escaping, and the old man went in to get him water without saying anything.
The two entered the yard, Zhuang Yan also touched it, and the little fat man not far away wanted to call him, but his mouth opened but he didn't speak, and the mud on his hand wiped his gown and turned his head and ran.
Zhuang Yan went to the root of the wall of the old man's house, and heard the conversation between Xiangzi and the old man, probably saying that Zhuang Yan knew in advance, but he just wanted to listen to it.
The old man was not short of camels, but he was happy to see the hunt, and he was a little pitiful to Xiangzi, and finally he was willing to pay thirty-five yuan to buy them.
Three camels are only worth thirty-five yuan, Xiangzi is very disappointed, but there is no way, the world is this way, he is lucky to meet this old man, otherwise he would not even have thirty-five yuan.
In the end, Xiangzi gritted his teeth and made up his mind, sold the camel to the old man for thirty-five yuan, and asked the old man for a small coat and two stick cakes.
After drinking the water, he went out into the city.
Zhuang Yan finally caught up with Xiangzi, so he naturally didn't want to lose it, so he walked behind Xiangzi with his calves.
Xiangzi didn't run, but he walked too fast, and Zhuang Yan's child's body couldn't keep up even if he spread his legs and ran.
Xiangzi, who walked towards the city, didn't look back once, he may have found Zhuang Yan, but he didn't dare to look back, or maybe he didn't find it at all.
Running and running, Zhuang Yan couldn't keep up, standing in place holding his knees and panting, he couldn't wrestle with a young man who pulled a cart all year round, but he didn't give up, even if there was no trace of Xiangzi in front of him, he still followed in the direction of Xiangzi. No matter how bad it is, he will go to the city.
Unlike the previous world, in this world he had all his feelings, including hunger and thirst, and he regretted a little why he was not prepared when he left, he should have brought dry food and water like Shoko.
The distance from the village to the city was not close, especially for him, it seemed like there was no end.
Zhuang Yan spat out, there was a village in front of him, and he was going to go in and ask for some water or food.
Although the topography has changed greatly, with Zhuang Yan's understanding of the original book, the place where he is now should be in the Shijingshan Scenic Area, and if it is modern, it should be within the Sixth Ring Road. The place where Xiangzi went was Haidian, which should be northeast of Shijingshan, and if there was a subway, he could also take Line 1 to Line 10.
Zhuang Yan felt that he was tired and confused, and he was still thinking about these inconsequential things.
Although the child's body is very troublesome, it is not without any benefits, at least when he went to the village to ask for water to eat, it went smoothly, and a woman in the village gave Zhuang Yan something to eat, and asked him with concern why a little child ran here.
Zhuang Yan sent the other party away with a lie full of loopholes, and set off again.
However, when he walked out of the village, he came back to his senses, and before he was in a hurry to chase Xiangzi, but he forgot that Xiangzi was not necessarily the right way. His shops are all in Liu Siye on Xi'anmen Street, and he should go directly to Xi'anmen Street, just walk in the direction of due east.
But the truth is not so simple, Shijingshan Scenic Area to Xi'anmen Street is due east, but there is no straight road past, and he doesn't know the path.
He could only estimate the general direction to go, and there were probably dozens of miles to get to the city.
If it is a flat road and comfortable shoes, although it is tiring for dozens of miles, it is not a difficult task, but all the conditions are more difficult, and Zhuang Yan finally arrived in the city after the soles of his shoes were worn out.
When he arrived in the city, he could no longer hold on, so he could only go to the ground and fall into a deep sleep.
When he woke up again, he opened his eyes and was already in his room.
Half-sitting on the bed, he sighed, if he changed roles next time he entered the dream, then his day's journey would be in vain.
But none of this is up to him, and he doesn't even know when he will go in next time, whether he can go in again or not.
Looking out the window, it was not yet bright, at most six or seven o'clock, but he had completely lost his sleepiness and simply got up from the bed. Take a hundred times to read the latest chapters of "Wonderful Claw Book House in the Literary and Art World" for free for the first time.
