Chapter 32: The Mysterious Woman

It's noon again, and with Coach Li Yuan's 'disbandment', as well as his own unique rapid disappearance, there is a smell of malaise wafting out of the team.

One by one, the cadets left the group, like ice cubes that were gradually melting and dripping. After a few minutes, the 'ice' seemed to be much smaller, replaced by the students scattered around the playground.

Zhao Yu also stretched his waist weakly, but he did not leave the team as soon as possible. Ahh Zha Hongliang next to him saw it, and he didn't forget to taunt a few words.

"Wow! Zhao Yu, it seems that you have recovered well in the past few days! You don't look like you've been hungry for a few days at all. ”

"Why are you laughing at me like that. Zhao Yu sank his face and swung his raised limbs down, "I haven't completely come out of the shadows yet!"

"Oh, didn't you come out?" Zha Hongliang poked a finger at his mouth, as if he was thinking about something intensely. Then, with a quick nod, he suffixed, "Yes, indeed." You do seem to be in a trance lately. ”

"Huh, in a trance?" Zhao Yu froze, he squinted at Zha Hongliang, "For example, what is it?"

"What are you asking!" Zha Hongliang couldn't help but look at Zhao Yu carefully, "Hmm...... I guess it refers to many aspects! Today is a little better, but a few days ago, I really didn't dare to look at it directly, as if I didn't even have a soul. ”

"Is that an exaggeration?"

"Yes. If you don't believe me, you can ask Liang Chaowei. And he said, if you go on like this for another month, he's going to talk to the coach. ”

Zhao Yu twitched his cheeks when he heard this. In fact, he also knows why he has recently shown that he has lost his soul. However, everything disappeared with him burying the 'things' in the backyard.

"Zhao Yu!"

Just when he was in a reverie, Zha Hongliang stepped forward and patted his arm.

"We were all worried, but seeing that you seem to be much better today, I'm a little relieved. But I still hope you can get out of that shadow sooner!"

"Yes, I know. Zhao Yu pursed his lips and shrunk his neck at Zha Hongliang.

"Alright, let's eat!"

Zha Hongliang said and walked towards the place where their packages were placed.

Zhao Yu looked at his friend's back, and felt an indescribable sense of grievance. Several times, he had the feeling of wanting to tell Zha Hongliang about his adventures in the woods, but he gave up every time he came to his lips. Zhao Yu didn't want to be a person without integrity, so he didn't mention half a word to his mother at home.

Ahh Zhao Yu headed to the northwest, which was his residence.

What is Mother doing now? Farming! Zhao Yu asked himself. He kept looking into the distance for a long time, until he heard Zha Hongliang's shout.

"Hey...... Zhao Yu. What are you thinking? Come here!"

Urged by Zha Hongliang, Zhao Yu also started to move. However, after not taking many steps, he noticed that his heartbeat was accelerating.

What's going on?Zhao Yu quickly covered his chest. The panic caused him to stop again, and he shrunk his straight back into a bulging hill. For some reason, the image of his mother kept jumping in his head. Whether it is joy or crying, the scenes of contact with his mother are constantly emerging in Zhao Yu's mind.

Zhao Yu became more and more uneasy, what was going on? His final movement trajectory was still looking at the northwest sky.

'Why?, why am I so uneasy?' Everything Zhao Yu saw seemed to become blurred.

It wasn't until he reacted that the noise in the playground returned to normal. He could hear the movement of his classmates again.

"Zhao Yu, what are you thinking?" Zha Hongliang trotted over and shook his hand in front of Zhao Yu.

"I ......"

"That's right, just like that. Zha Hongliang pointed sharply at the tip of Zhao Yu's nose.

"What?"

"It's like this! What's wrong? Do you think of falling off a cliff again?"

When Zha Hongliang said this, Zhao Yu also nodded.

"Well, don't think about it anymore, it's been so long. ”

"Yes, I see. ”

"Let's go! Let's eat!"

Zha Hongliang took the opportunity to push Zhao Yu's back. Although this force was not large, Zhao Yu was still pushed forward several steps.

Still the feeling of palpitations, Zhao Yu tried his best to smooth his breath. He didn't know what was going on, but he was really worried about his mother right now.

Mother-Zhao Yu finally looked in the northwest direction, and then came to the edge of the playground with Zha Hongliang.

"Oh! it's time to eat!" Zha Hongliang shook his bloated body slipperily, "I've waited for a long time, and I'm finally able to eat!"

Zhao Yu knew that behind Zha Hongliang's behavior, it was to make the current atmosphere more relaxed and lively.

But......

Zhao Yu couldn't get out of his worry about his mother at all, and he had the urge to ask for leave to go back now.

"Wow, wow, ......"

Just as Zhao Yu's mind was in a fierce conflict, a sudden cry brought him back to his senses. Instinctively turned his head towards the source of the sound, only to find that Zha Hongliang was holding a lunch box in surprise at this moment.

"What's going on? Is my family rich?" I saw Zha Hongliang stretching his arms to his heart's content, and the lunch box in his hand was like a lonely boat floating in the ocean, swimming here and there.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Look. Zha Hongliang put the lunch box in front of Zhao Yu's eyes, "There are actually four chicken legs in it." This...... It's weird. ”

"Your mother prepared it for you!"

"Come on, how could that old woman be so kind as to prepare chicken legs for me. Ahh I think she made a mistake with my sister and me!"

"Hey, why do you say that!" Zhao Yu gently touched Zha Hongliang's arm, "Mother is good to us, you should know ......"

Before Zhao Yu finished speaking, a loud cry spread in the playground.

"Is Zhao Yu here?"

Zhao Yu first looked at Zha Hongliang in surprise, and then looked at the source of the figure shouting at him.

"Hey, is Zhao Yu from the swordsman class here?"

I saw a tall, thin-eyed man standing at the main entrance in the distance. He pressed his hands to the sides of his mouth, his eyes wandering anxiously over the playground.

Zhao Yu remembered that this man was from the archer class next door, how could he come here in the swordsman class? The key is that this person is still calling Zhao Yu's name? Zhao Yu couldn't help but tilt his head.

"Zhao Yuβ€”is Zhao Yu from the swordsman class here? Hmm? What's wrong? Didn't he come today?"

Corresponding to the man's shouts, the other academies of the swordsman class began to roam the playground with their eyes. Zhao Yu knew that he was looking for himself.

"Zhao Yu, what are you thinking? Didn't you see that people were calling you?" Zha Hongliang swept Zhao Yu's back with his elbow.

Zhao Yu thought about responding to the sentence. He hurriedly waved his hand at the main entrance: "Hey, I'm here." What's wrong? what's the matter?" he said as he ran over the corner.

The thin-eyed seam man seemed a little unhappy, his brow furrowed a little, "Hey, I've called you many times just now, but I didn't react at all." ”

"Ahh ”

The thin-eyed seam man quickly revealed a more relaxed style. No, it should be a similar expression to the 'thief's smile'. This made Zhao Yu slow down, and he became alert.

"Hey, don't hurry up and run over here. The thin-eyed man put his hands on his waist, "You don't come again, I'm leaving." Don't regret it. ”

Zhao Yudun was a little stunned. What the hell was going on? He didn't seem to remember any friendship with the thin-eyed seam man of the archer class. But after all, the other party was urging, Zhao Yu grabbed the back of his head, and accelerated to the front of the thin-eyed man.

"I'm sorry. Because he was a little out of breath from running, Zhao Yu bent down slightly and supported his knees with both hands.

"Hmm......" The thin-eyed man looked at Zhao Yu with an incredible gaze, "Yo! It's usually quiet, but it's pretty good at it. ”

"Ah, what's wrong?"

"There's a woman coming for you, you know?"

"Huh?"

Not only Zhao Yu, but even the other swordsman class students next to him all showed a look of surprise. They all quickly swarmed each other. Especially Liang Chaowei, he directly hooked Zhao Yu's neck, and gave a downward pressure 'Mount Tai press'.

"What?"

"Really. A woman was hovering at the door of our trial ground, and when I asked her, she said she was looking for a person named Zhao Yu. ”

The thin-eyed man's words made the group explode again, and everyone began to talk about who this woman was?

"Get out of the way. Zha Hongliang rushed around his fat body and directly opened the crowd. He tugged at Zhao Yu's shoulder clothes and glared at him viciously, "Zhao Yu." You've gone too far. The things I was dating with women had been hiding from me. Ah......h

"Ahh Zhao Yu was a little stunned for a while, "What...... What...... What do you associate with women?"

"Don't hide it anymore. People and women are coming to the door, don't you admit it?"

"Wait. I don't know what's going on at all?" Zhao Yu continued to look around at the students around him to alleviate the panic in his heart, "I've never been in a relationship with a woman. ”

"If there is, there is nothing to admit. We're not children anymore, we're all twenty years old, we all know these things!" a student with a sinister head jumped up and down in the crowd with a wicked smile.

In this way, more and more students who love to watch the excitement will come over.

"Zhao Yu!" Liang Chaowei let go of the arm that hooked Zhao Yu's neck. However, his next actions made Zhao Yu even more tired. He directly detoured behind Zhao Yu, and jumped up, pressing his hands on Zhao Yu's shoulders, "You are really the glory of our swordsman class! ”

Zhao Yu only felt that his face was hot, his heartbeat was accelerating, and his breathing was even faster than when he ran before. "Hey, you...... You...... What nonsense!"

"Just admit it! we're not going to do anything to you. A student with eyebrows as bright as the moon joked.

"I don't know how a woman could come to me. Besides......" Zhao Yu seemed to think of something. He blinked blankly, and then asked the man with thin eyes, "Is it my mother! The woman who came to me is my mother?"

Unexpectedly, the thin-eyed man shook his head violently: "That's not right." It's a young woman. He seems to be about the same age as us. It is absolutely impossible for anyone to be the mother. ”

"Zhao Yu, what's the matter with you? Do you treat us as fools? You actually use your mother to prevaricate. ”

"It's just, now are you trying to find an excuse that is your sister. ”

"My sister shouldn't be able to. The thin-eyed man interjected, "I think that woman seems to be older than me, so I think Zhao Yu will still brag that she is her distant cousin, or it is more realistic." ”

The coaxing was louder, and it almost flooded the playground.

"You people...... Finally...... Oops...... "Zhao Yu didn't know how to refute it anymore.

"Alright, alright. I think you'd better hurry up and go out and meet people! Don't make people wait too long. ”

"I don't really know any girls. Zhao Yu struggled to break free from the restraints of others, and he turned around to the group excitedly, "I don't believe you can go and see what is going on together." ”

"But a woman is really looking for you?"

"Maybe she found the wrong one, and she found another person named Zhao Yu. ”

"Hehe!" Liang Chaowei covered his forehead with one hand, "Are there any other people named Zhao Yu in our town?

The answer is obvious, Zhao Yu has never heard of anyone with the same name and surname in Vortex Town since he was a child. Although Vortex Town has a population of tens of thousands, it just doesn't have the same name as him. In fact, there are very few people with the surname Zhao in this town.

"I don't want to talk too much nonsense. If you don't believe it, let's take a look!" Zhao Yu spread his hands helplessly.

Under the vigorous coaxing of the students, Zhao Yu pushed away the crowd and walked towards the main entrance of the trial ground.

The other students of the swordsman class followed, including the thin-eyed man from the archer class, of course. Maybe these people couldn't imagine that Zhao Yu, who is usually wooden, would have anything to do with women.

Zhao Yu walked a little resolutely at the front, he was also annoyed in his heart, just now he was a little irritable by worrying about his mother's safety, and now he has to toss for an inexplicable woman. The more he thought about it, the faster he moved forward.

"Look! Can't wait. ”

"I'll just say why this kid has been in a trance recently, it turns out that he is in love. ”

"When did you talk about it?"

"Who knows?"

Behind him, sarcastic voices came one after another, among which Zha Hongliang's "mental trance" was the most harsh. Zhao Yu shook his head and slowly changed his walking posture to a trot.

After exiting the swordsman trial ground, you need to go through a crooked cecal path to reach the main entrance. Zhao Yu paced down the road for a while, and finally saw the main gate of the trial ground and the high walls connected to both sides.

So, what about women? Zhao Yu stretched his neck.

As the distance from the gate approached, Zhao Yu gradually saw all the scenes over there. Indeed, there was a tall woman standing in front of the door. Since she had her back to the gate, Zhao Yu could only see her back.

Zhao Yu felt that things were getting more and more strange. He continued to take steps towards the main entrance of the proving grounds.

"Alright, let's watch it here! ”

I don't know who came to say this, and everyone who followed behind Zhao Yu also stopped. Zhao Yu turned his head and showed a look of disdain at them.

When there were still more than a dozen steps left at the main gate, Zhao Yu looked directly at the woman's back. The woman's height seemed to be very tall, as if she was a little taller than Zhao Yu. Also, the woman's back was diagonally slanted with a sword, which was unusually thick and almost longer than the woman herself.

To be honest, both this woman and the sword she is carrying are very eye-catching on the street.

When Zhao Yu officially came to the gate, he shrunk his neck and tried to scream.

"Hello. Sorry you ......."

The woman must have heard him shouting. He straightened his body first, and then turned around completely as if he were in a coherent motion.

Zhao Yu saw the woman's face and couldn't help but take a small step back. It was really a face full of fortitude! Not to mention the angular little mountain eyebrows, the hair was also coiled up to the back of the head, and not a single hair fell out. Before he made contact, Zhao Yu was shocked by the momentum of the other party.

The woman's somewhat dazzling gaze rushed towards Zhao Yu, and she took a sharp step forward: "Is it Zhao Yu?"

Seeing that the other party was calling his name, Zhao Yu nodded slightly: "Ah! Yes." My name is Zhao Yu. Then please come to ......"

"Is that the one who once fell into the river under the cliff?" the woman directly and forcefully interrupted Zhao Yu's reply.

Zhao Yu was stunned. He then thought about the woman's new question, and it took him four or five seconds before he came up with an answer.

"Yes. Ahh......h I did fall into a river, but ......"

"I heard that after you fell into the river, you also came across the corpse of a magician and picked up his things from it. Right?"

The questions really came one after another, leaving no time for Zhao Yu to think. He immediately stared at the woman. But it wasn't long before he was defeated and stopped looking at him. The woman's gaze is really sharp, as if it penetrates everything.

"Hungry! About this ......"

"Don't look like, really? or not?"

"Ahh In order to hide his panic, he also used his trembling hand to pick up his ears. He finally replied with a 'yes,' and the resolute woman's words followed.

"So where is the 'thing'? Tell me. ”

"Ahh......h He looked at the woman dryly, and didn't answer for a long time.

"Where's the 'stuff'?"

"Excuse me...... Excuse me......" Zhao Yu's mouth was numb, as if he could even speak.

"I ask you where the 'thing' is?" the woman took a big step towards Zhao Yu, her eyes widening like two light bulbs.

At this time, Zhao Yu was completely panicked. His mind seemed to be stuck, and he could no longer transmit the information he saw.

"Hey, I'm asking you. Where the hell is the 'thing'?"

Zhao Yu's arm suddenly felt a pain, and when he came back to his senses, he realized that the woman's outstretched hand was caused by it. The woman was grabbing his arm, with great force.

"You...... You ......"

"What the hell is going on with you? Are you a fool? Why don't you answer what I ask you?"

"You...... Hungry...... Ah......h

"Hurry up and answer. ”

The woman directly pulled Zhao Yu's arm. Zhao Yu only felt like a thin dress, as if she could be pulled around.

"Where the hell is the thing?"

"In ...... Stuff in my ...... Home. ”

The woman quickly rolled her eyes, "Okay, where is your house?" Perhaps seeing Zhao Yu's hesitation, the woman quickly glared at him fiercely, "What are you doing? ”

"You...... Who the hell are you?" Zhao Yu wanted to break free from the woman's grasp. However, the woman's strength was too great for him to shake it off. Even, he felt that it was difficult to even move at least.

"You don't need to know who I am, you just have to give me that magician's stuff. The back of the woman's hand that grabbed Zhao Yu was obviously bruised.

Oh my God, is this still a woman?" Zhao Yu poured saliva into his throat.

"If you hear me, take me to your house. The woman's arm lifted up, and Zhao Yu obediently made the same movement.

"Wait, can I ask a question?"

"Yes. But now I don't have time, so I'll ask again while going to your house. The woman simply returned.

Zhao Yu felt in a trance that there seemed to be a feeling of not dragging the mud and water in a woman.

"But...... I've got to know something, otherwise I'm going to get something over to you. ”

"Hey, boy, I tell you, don't you know what kind of crisis you're facing, don't you know how much disaster that 'thing' will bring you? If you know each other, give me your stuff quickly. ”

Being told like this by a woman, Zhao Yu's mood became even more messy. However, he also needs to find out what is going on at the moment!

Who was this woman, and why was she so desperate for those things?

Suddenly, Zhao Yu seemed to think of something. He stared at the resolute and strong woman in front of him.

Could it be ......

She is what the old man said...... Shen Mengting?
