Chapter 184: The Night (10)

No one answered, only a bird chirping down. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

I looked back and saw a fluffy little bird landing in the grass under the tree, looking quite delicate and pitiful.

It was a little golden bird, perhaps not full-term, squeezed down, squatting in the grass, looking innocently at me with black eyes like mung beans.

Thinking of the red fire in the Yan Temple, I stretched out my hand, picked up the soft ball, and sent it back to the tree.

On this day, it began to rain continuously.

Many people who didn't go to work gathered around and chatted.

As she spoke, I don't know who mentioned Mrs. Jiang and her tragic son.

"Hey, speaking of which, that kid is pitiful. Follow my mother to go to my father. Who would have thought that while Mrs. Jiang was looking for water, the child was eaten by a tiger. ”

"It's pathetic. Mrs. Jiang's heart should be broken. Another woman sighed.

When Mrs. General came back from fetching water, she saw the rattle falling on the ground, and she almost fainted from crying. ”

"And how did she know that the child was eaten by a tiger?"

Someone interjected to ask.

"Your cousin knows about this. The woman who spoke glanced at the woman who had interjected, and said.

"What does it have to do with my cousin?"

"The lady stumbled down the mountain to find someone to help, and it was your cousin who helped find it. Not far from the cave of the savages, he saw torn bloody clothes and small shoes on the ground. When she took it back and showed it to Mrs. General, she fainted. So your cousin insisted that he was eaten by a tiger. ”

After that, the woman asked again: "Do you know the savage cave? It was on that cool mountain, and a while ago, I heard the roar of a tiger." ”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Late that night, the room trembled as the roaring tiger shook.

"Isn't Mrs. Jiang's husband a big official in Xunyang City, why don't you send someone to pick her up?"

Someone asked.

"The person who sent it was sent, and it was an official sedan chair. But the water in the river rose in those days, and I couldn't go. You can only walk from Liangshan. I heard that there was a tiger on the mountain, and the people sent did not dare to go, so they prepared to wait for the water to subside and take the waterway. But Mrs. Sifu was so anxious that she couldn't wait, so she took the risk and walked away from Liangshan. Although there is a tiger roaring on Liangshan, no one has seen it all this time. Mrs. Jiang thought it was feasible and left. Who would have expected ...... Alas......"

"Mrs. Jiang will definitely regret her intestines later~"

"Isn't it? I can't even walk, I only know how to cry, and I want to cry with her......

"Speaking of Mrs. Jiang, I heard a rumor when I sent the second girl home this time. ”

The bearded man had been sitting quietly drinking tea, and suddenly interjected at this moment.

"What rumors?"

"That night, I sat with my in-laws and had a drink. At that time, there was an old man surnamed Zhang. The old man said that the young lady of the rich man Huo was born a fool. ”

"Who is the rich man Huo?"

"It's Mrs. Jiang's maiden family. After she got married, she went to Beijing to take the exam, and the rich man Huo loved his daughter so much that he let his daughter move home to live. ”

"That means that Madame's son, who was eaten by the tiger, is a fool?"

The old man said that the child's eyes were very dull, and he often did not speak, and sat motionless in a daze, and taught his wife to read and write, but he couldn't teach him, so his wife often wanted to beat him angrily, and occasionally hit him with a bamboo board on his hand, and the child was also dumbfounded, and he didn't even cry in pain or crying. ”

After a pause, the man took a sip of tea and added: "No matter how honest the child is, if he beats hard, he will cry twice, even if he doesn't cry, frowning and biting his lip and glaring at people with hatred, his expression will change in two, but that child has no expression at all." ”

"If you're really stupid, it's better to go early. Otherwise, it is also a misery to remain in the world. ”

The woman who started the conversation sighed.

"Look at you, this is a woman with short knowledge~, people are not us, not to mention the status of the general, it is the family of the rich man Huo, and it can also be used by fools for more than ten lifetimes. A fool born in a family like ours is bitter, but born in a family like an adult, he is well eaten, drunk and served, where can he suffer a little bitterly? Speaking of which, he is more comfortable than us who are sound in everything?

A spicy sister-in-law teased.

"Haha, too. ”

Laughter flew out of the autumn rain and soon disappeared into the cooler air.

It rains in the cottage, bit by bit.

I looked at the raindrops that fell from time to time in a daze.

Ah Ye didn't come.

It's been two days.

The scorching heat slowly cooled down, and the first autumn rain began.

I'm a little distressed.

In this life, Ah Ye's obsession is too deep, and the stone mill plate under the apricot tree has become a place he must go to every day, and together with the obsession of waiting for his mother, it has become a deep memory that he can't let go.

If you want to keep him by your side and protect him, why don't you take the initiative and take him to find your mother?

Thinking of this, the dark clouds in my heart disappeared a little, and my eyes relaxed a little when I looked at the falling drizzly sky.

Who would have thought that plans could not keep up with the changes.

After the continuous autumn rains, there is another round of summer heat.

When the harvest season came, the children had to go to the fields to help, and the classes in the cottage gradually stopped.

After I made up my mind, I went down the mountain to Ah Ye, who knows, I searched the whole village, but I couldn't find it.

I asked many people, but they didn't know where he was.

In a hurry, I laid down the isolation magic weapon that Feng Jiu gave me to save my life, forcibly broke through the sealed magic body, and cast a spell to open the soul chasing mirror.

In the midst of the isolation artifact, the image of the soul chasing mirror appeared and disappeared, and a tall city gate appeared in front of him.

As the familiar figure walked in, I clearly saw the word Xunyang at the head of the city.

Ah Ye went to Xunyang, what did he do there, could it be...... When I think about that possibility, I can't sit still anymore.

There is only one thing in the world that can make him so obsessed.

I hurried down the mountain and ran in the direction of Xunyang.

Xunyang, outside the house.

A thin child stood in the doorway, staring blankly at the magnificent mansion in front of him.

"Where did the little beggar come from, walk and go, go aside. ”

The doorkeeper looked at the dirty child and drove him away unceremoniously.

Who knows, the thin boy walked straight around the servant towards the gate as if he hadn't heard.

If you let this little beggar break into the house, will it be worth it?

The servant didn't care that the little beggar was dirty, grabbed his arm, and threatened: "Are you deaf or stupid, didn't you hear what the uncle said? This is the land of the official family, and it is not allowed to trespass. ”

"I'm looking for my mother. ”

The thin child held back for a while and said silently.
