Chapter 136: Xiao Ying
As the night progresses, pedestrians become scarce. Xiang Tian is like a person who has left his hometown, wandering in unknown streets and alleys.
His tired body had forced him to go back to the task, but the sound of the gurgling water had awakened him a little.
Following the sound slowly, through the barrier of the layers of houses, a river dyed black by the night flowed quietly.
The water shimmered with sparkling stars, and the wind blew by, causing ripples.
On both sides of the river are soft grass, and white tents protrude like mushrooms after rain.
It turned out that these people, like Xiang Tian, couldn't live in a hotel, and couldn't find a place to stay, so they made do with it here.
The road down the grass felt slightly tilted, and coupled with Taigu's relentless pressure on his shoulder, Xiang Tian almost fell.
Many of the tents were lit up, and the curtains had not yet been closed, Xiang Tian found a good location, and found that the "resident" next to him was still reading a book before he slept, so he asked: "Excuse me, may I ask, can I live here for a long time?"
The middle-aged man in the tent closed the book, not upset by being disturbed.
"Young man, you must be the first time you have come to the imperial capital. ”
"Yes, I'm here ... Touristic. "Xiang Tian told a little lie, he couldn't say that he came to participate in the assessment of Shenwu Academy.
"It's amazing to come out and train at such a young age. ”
"Where, where. Xiang Tian waved his hand.
"Then again, this is known as the camp of the downcast, and the imperial capital has given a place for the homeless to shelter by default, allowing anyone to settle down in this place after nine o'clock in the evening, but they must be evacuated during the day. ”
"Oh, I see, thank you then. ”
"You're welcome, welcome to the Imperial Capital. ”
Calculating that it was not too early, Xiang Tian took out the folded tent from his bag, set it up on the ground in two or three strokes, and fixed it firmly with stones, which was not a difficult task for him who grew up on Cape Island.
Then, of course, cover yourself with a quilt and rest.
The temperature in the imperial capital plummeted at night, and the cool and icy wind felt biting through the tent, Xiang Tian, who had been lying for more than ten minutes, could no longer stand the raging beating of the cold wind, rubbed his palms, spit out a cloud of cold air in his mouth, and tiptoed out of the tent to collect dry branches and fallen leaves.
Looking back at the orange Taigu, the goods have been integrated with the quilt, and the big belly is put away, and the snoring is like thunder.
I ate fifty kilograms of deep-sea sea bass today, and Xiang Tian estimated that the calories generated in it have not been digested until now.
The fire was erected, the temperature rose, and the frozen body finally eased back.
The cold environment made it easier for Xiang Tian to feel hungry, so he didn't hesitate to pick up a few steamed buns with a branch, sprinkle some drinking water, and put them on the fire to roast.
There was a rustling sound in the grass not far away, "Come out and meet, you've been following me all the way for a long time." ”
Xiang Tian pulled open the burnt steamed buns, the water on the outer skin evaporated, becoming crispy and delicious, and the soft taste of the steamed buns inside was like chewing honey.
"Hee-hee, you're amazing. The little beggar in tattered clothes strode out of the grass and walked to the vicinity of Xiang Tian's tent.
"You should be hungry, eat?" Xiang Tian pulled up the branch with the steamed bun on the ground and handed it to the little beggar.
"Don't rush to eat, be careful of burning. ”
When the two hands alternated, Xiang Tian touched the little beggar's hand and subconsciously retracted it.
This white and tender hand is not a man's hand, it is the kind of slender and unadulterated jade hand, Xiang Tian deduced from this that this little beggar is a woman, and does not look a few years younger than himself, there is no special smell on his body, but there is a faint fragrance lingering.
Up close, the little beggar wears a gray patched hat, and from the roots of her hair it is observed that she has long hair, and although her face is obscured by darkness, she can still make out the feminine features.
The other party's hand was also withdrawn like an electric shock, and it seemed that the inadmissibility of men and women was deeply ingrained in her heart.
The little beggar could endure the heat, or maybe he was too hungry, so he devoured a big steamed bun in three bites, and then his talking eyes turned to Xiang Tian.
Without a word, the wind blew and crackled in the fire.
Seeing that she was strange and pitiful, Xiang Tian took out the jerky in his bag and gave the little beggar a steamed bun to eat.
Haw, haw, this girl is as obscene as Taigu, and Xiang Tian is also ashamed of this.
Is this really a little beggar who boils delicacies in the real taste building? This is just ordinary steamed buns and ordinary jerky!!
Why is this so?
"Well, it's unpalatable. In the end, she ate all the steamed buns and lay directly on the grass.
"Why did you eat it all when it was unpalatable, isn't your mouth tricky?"
"When you're hungry, you have to pad your stomach. ”
"Tell me, why do you want a little girl to follow me?" Xiang Tian smiled indifferently and added a few firewood branches to the fire, and the fire continued to burn vigorously.
"No, I just happened to be passing by. The little beggar didn't seem embarrassed by the revelation of his androgynous outfit, but stuck out his tongue.
"As far as you are a three-legged cat, I probably found you in the fountain, and at first I thought it was just happening, but I found you sneaking in along the way. ”
"Hee-hee, I think you're a funny person, and I want to follow and see what happens. ”
"Interesting? I'm boring. ”
"At night, I dragged an orange cat, wandered around the imperial capital with small dried fish, and was finally robbed by a group of wild cats and dogs. ”
Xiang Tian put out a pair of dead fish eyes, feeling that the smell was too big, he looked at Taigu in the tent again, he was still sleeping peacefully, and he was glad that this thing was not heard, otherwise he would have spent the past few days in mockery.
"You can't follow me, I'm not here anymore. ”
"And what are you here for?"
"I... I'm here for an important test, but I got separated from my partner this morning. For the little beggar, Xiang Tian inadvertently said the assessment, probably because he was not wary of her.
"Hee-hee, I like to watch the assessment or something, so I want to follow you even more. ”
Xiang Tian's face twisted into a ball in an instant, but his mood was still relatively peaceful, "Little beggar, I don't know you before, and I can't always take you with me." ”
"Little beggar, this is a strange name. YOU CAN CALL ME ... Xiao Ying!!"
"Can you please stop the conversation. ”
"I don't listen, I don't listen, I'm with the orange cat and not with you, haha. ”
"You... ”
"Taigu won't agree. Xiang Tianyi accidentally said something out of his mouth.
"It turns out it's called Taigu, I don't care if I'm going to sleep, you can stay outside tonight. ”
"Xiao Ying!!" Xiang Tian shouted the name of his new friend helplessly.
I saw that the little girl ran into the quilt without saying a word, hugged Taigu and pulled down the curtain, a set of clean and neat movements, it seems that she had thought about it in advance.
Xiang Tian's head is about to explode, the task has not been completed, Zhou Gong and Chen Lingyue have not been found, and now there is another Xiaoying.
I knew that the gold coin was lost!!
