Chapter 304: Movement Next Door
I squinted at him and said, "You really don't know how expensive firewood and rice are." "This firewood is so difficult to find, can you just throw it away?"
I looked at him with annoyance, and when I came out of the hut, I had actually estimated the number before moving.
I estimated the amount of firewood that would be needed overnight, so I didn't have much left left when I took it to the cave.
Today, the eldest young master's feet are much better.
Now, he can walk on his own, much better than yesterday.
In this case, it's just a gesture to go with the remaining firewood, not just for yourself.
The most important thing is that I take it, and I don't bother the young master to take it, why is it that he despises it when I come up?
I said in my heart, if it weren't for this fire last night, the two of them would have been frozen enough to choke all night.
This guy has warned him, and in the blink of an eye, he forgot my agreement with him!
Words are not speculative for more than half a sentence!
I heard him whisper, "Stingy! ”
I looked at him generously and said, "If you don't steal or rob, it's normal to cherish the income from your labor." "It's not stingy, it's that what you have comes easily, and you don't know how to cherish it." "You're not like me."
I turned my head away and looked out of the cave, calmed down the depression in my heart, and brought the small bundle of firewood I had packed.
He said his, I'll still take mine! Ignore him!
I stood up and calmed down before looking at him and saying, "Now, you can go." ”
The cold but fresh wind blows on your face in the morning in the mountains and forests. I helped the boy to walk into the woods.
Not long after, I asked to stop and take a break.
To be honest, this person is actually not heavy. The main thing is that I am too tall, and I am still very tired from the weight on my shoulders.
"How about a different side?" The boy stared at me for a while, taking in all the hard work I had along the way, and then he softened his face and offered to suggest to me.
I was about to say yes, but then I thought that I had just applied the medicine last night, and I am afraid that I will not be able to use it at this time.
I hesitated for a moment, but then shook my head and said, "No." Just take a break and keep walking! “
I continued to walk the mountain road in my previous position, I don't know if it was my delusion or something. I feel that the weight of the boy on my shoulders is much lighter at this moment.
If I'm not mistaken, can I understand his conscience?
Halfway down the slope, I glanced back in the direction of the cave, looked sideways at the young man, and said, "Tell me about it." How far is it from the Orion's residence? "I looked around carefully when I went out yesterday. It's a completely different scene," I paused, my eyes swept between his eyebrows, and I didn't dare to linger more, this person stared at me for a long time, which easily distracted me! "Don't tell me, in the middle of the night, because of an accident, you took me over the mountains and mountains for a long distance."
It suddenly occurred to me that this guy's physical strength was really amazing, if it weren't for the poison in the wound. I have no doubt that he will be able to carry me over the mountain with ease! "Nope." The boy shook his head and said, "We passed a hill on our way. “
He paused. Glancing towards the mountains and forests in the distance, he said, "At that moment, I saw a path in the forest, so when I came out of Orion's yard, I took you directly to the direction I remembered. "I'm here from the trail."
The young man lowered his head and thought for a while before saying, "If you count the distance, it's not that far, but it's in a different direction. “
"Huh?" I looked at him in surprise, not expecting to hear this answer.
"Will the Orion catch up?" A thought crossed my mind, and I immediately blurted out a question.
"No, never!" The young man suddenly sneered, and I was stunned.
There was a trace of coldness in my heart, I thought he had taught the other party a lesson, but I didn't expect it to end like this.
The cold wind blew on my body, and my back was cold, and I stood still.
The boy called me, and when he saw that I didn't react, he reached out and pushed my arm and said, "Xiaoling, what's wrong?" ”
"No, nothing," I helped him forward for a short time, and finally stopped and asked, "Can you tell me what happened that night?" Why should you?"
There must be something I don't know, and when I get along, I know that although the boy has an arrogant temper, he is not an unreasonable person.
Could it be that Orion has some bad intentions?
At the thought of this, I frowned, and looked at the boy with an inquiring gaze.
The young man turned his face away and ruthlessly rejected me: "Xiaoling, it's already a thing of the past to say that what you do here." "When you get to Suzhou City, if you still want to know, I can tell you."
I bowed my head in silence, and for a moment only the sound of the wind passed by me
The boy looked at the boy's side face and sighed in his heart.
In the end, he was pampered in the national capital, and he had little knowledge!
Although I know a little bit about medicine, I'm afraid I haven't experienced that kind of scene.
If you change to a different boy, you can probably talk about it, but if you change it, you have to continue to travel in the mountains, and if you do, that kid will probably have nightmares every night.
He didn't want to hear that kid talk nonsense in the middle of the night!
The young man told him to tell the truth in Suzhou City, but in fact, it was just a pretext used as a perfunctory.
He didn't mean to tell the truth, "Okay, I won't ask in the future." I whispered a word and continued to help him on.
The young man's voice sounded in my ears: "Xiaoling, are you angry?" "Nope." I replied sullenly.
After a while, I raised my head and looked at the deep mountains and forests, and said in a low voice: "As you said, there is no point in how entangled I am in the past, and it is impossible for me to change anything." ”
I changed the subject and said, "What do you think?" At this rate, I'll get to the cabin faster than I expected! ”
I decided to look the other way. Thinking about it, at this time, the senior brother is afraid that the world has been turned upside down in Suzhou City, and he is looking for clues.
I'm in the mountains, and if I were him, I'm afraid I would be so anxious in the face of a situation where I got nothing!
I have so many things to worry about!
In the courtyard of Suzhou City. Tianfang was sitting in the study alone.
He had a game of chess in front of him.
The chessboard is dotted with chess pieces, and at a glance it looks like a picture.
When the guard came in, he saw that his head of the family was deeply knit between his eyebrows, as if he was thinking about something.
The guard was still holding the news from the flying pigeon outside, and when he saw the gloomy face of the lord, he couldn't help but be stunned.
He neither advanced nor retreated, and stood at the door with a hesitant face.
Tianfang had already noticed it, and immediately raised his eyes to look at it.
"Lord. The letter just arrived. ”
If there is a reaction, there is no need to avoid it, and the guards are determined. Approached and handed the written note to Tianfang.
The latter took it, unfolded it in his hand, and after glancing at it, the depression between his eyebrows was slightly soothed.
Tianfang said in a low voice: "Send someone to stop it on the mountain road outside Suzhou City." ”
"Since I'm out on errands. There is no reason to leave the stalls in Suzhou City alone. Tianfang paused and continued, "I have to come back, it's nothing more than those roads." ”
The guard nodded hurriedly and said, "A few of my subordinates have discussed it, and we have sent people to wait on the mountain road!" ”
He quickly glanced at Tianfang's expression, and said in an affirmative tone: "As long as their people come back, they will definitely bump into them." ”
Tianfang looked at the past with a hint of appreciation in his eyes and said: "Recently, my hands and feet have been fast, and my brain has been spinning fast!" ”
The guard bowed his head and remained silent. The heart said that it was not because it was your little sister who was kidnapped, if it was someone else. I've never seen you so attentive.
The brothers are afraid that things will be messed up, and life will not be easy after returning to Haiguo, so they are worried, just like you are worried about the little sister!
Therefore, as long as the news arrives, as long as there is progress, even if it is only a little bit, they will do their best to do it.
"The Lord praises falsely." The guards didn't look happy.
Tianfang stretched out his hand and looked at the chessboard, as if he was considering the next move, and after a moment he raised his head and said, "Not only the mountain road outside the city, but also the dock should be guarded. ”
"Lord!"
The guards were stunned for a moment, they thought of the interceptions on the roads outside Suzhou City, but they really didn't think about it on the other side of the waterway.
Whether it is the news in Suzhou City or the news from there, there is no hint of going by water.
A hint of doubt flashed in the guard's eyes, and a word from the sky immediately dispelled his thoughts.
"Soldiers are not tired of cheating, and every passage is guarded, so that it is comprehensive."
"Yes!" The guard immediately agreed, and then went out.
As soon as a few people in the garden got the news, they immediately split up and began to make arrangements
On several mountain roads outside Suzhou, there are suddenly a few simple stalls selling hot tea and snacks.
It may seem strange to put it on weekdays.
During this time, however, there was a noticeable increase in the number of people traveling to and from the Northland.
Many of them were people who had migrated from the north to the south, and many were from the capital to the north.
Wang Shi's team has not yet arrived in Suzhou, but the people along the way have already heard the news, and many people hope to have the opportunity to see Wang Shi's demeanor, especially the empress.
The mountain road is far away, and the people of Suzhou are not as good as the capital city, so it is too difficult to see the empress!
To sum up, these tea stalls that appear on the mountain road become less obtrusive!
The nobles who come and go may not stop to drink tea, but business can be done just as well, because the number of people is far greater than these people.
Tianfang's subordinates also mixed in, and they dressed up as ordinary people, and they didn't look out of harmony at all.
Early in the morning, Tianfang came out of the house in the east of Suzhou City, took a carriage all the way to the city gate, and then got off the car and walked through the city gate.
He went to see several nearby mountain roads, but the last place he went to was the pier where the boat docked that day.
In the winter, the wharf was obviously much more depressed, so the men sent over became some of the coachmen waiting by the wharf to pull the carts.
But the guard seldom came forward to talk to the guests who had landed, but waited under a large tree some distance from the dock to watch the guests who came ashore.
If you find a suspicious object in it, send a signal!
Suzhou City has its own big net waiting to catch fish.
Everything is arranged, and when I return to Tianfang in the courtyard in the east of the city, I am still uneasy.
He always felt that there seemed to be some key points that he had missed, and he suspected that he was worried too much about the relationship during this time, day and night.
Laughing at himself, Tian let out a voice and called a guard into the house to play with him.
The chess pieces fell on the chessboard one after another, and Tianfang suddenly stopped moving.
It was a beat slower than his reaction, but the guards also noticed it, and at this time, like Tianfang, they put down the chess pieces in their hands.
The two exchanged glances in unison.
Tianfang turned his head and glanced out the window and said, "Why is it noisy next door, you send someone over to see, who is living there?" ”
It's also strange to say, not long after the sky was placed in Suzhou City, the usually quiet house next door suddenly had a voice moving.
The people sent to Suzhou City in advance kept claiming that when they arrived, they had never seen anyone living next door.
But it's very strange that the two sides are almost front and back feet to Suzhou City!
After the day came, the next door gradually became lively.
Yesterday, the guards went out to run errands, and even saw the next door buy some furniture, calligraphy, paintings, and the like.
It was a few time-honored shops in Suzhou City, and they sent a carriage to the house next door.
It looks like he's preparing, as if there's some expensive big man coming to live.
During this period of time in Suzhou City, the wind and grass naturally can't escape the eyeliner of Tianfang's hands, and even the movement next door is no exception.
Something is wrong, and the guards pay extra attention!
But whether it's buying things or people coming in and out, it's the first time that it's so noisy like today.
It can be heard through the courtyard wall, which is even more unusual!
After all, the people who live here are either rich or expensive, and they are generally cautious in their words and deeds, and the impact should also be paid attention to.
Tianfang signaled, and the guards immediately went out to inquire about the news!
I helped the boy through the woods, and halfway through the road I heard the sound of water in front of me.
"There's a waterfall?" The boy asked with a surprised glance at me.
"Well, yes, I didn't tell you that when I came here yesterday, I noticed a small stream, in fact, the stream is from a waterfall in the mountain."
I helped the boy to rest on a stone in the woods, and while wiping his sweat and stretching his sore shoulders, I spoke to him: "I came here yesterday, and I was happy for a while. ”
"I thought there might be a home near the waterfall!"
I said with a bitter face: "I didn't expect that I didn't find a single house after not only looking for the nearby woods, but also walking along the stream, and I didn't find a single house after walking a long distance." "To be honest, I was disappointed yesterday!"
I shook my head, and a thought suddenly flashed in my heart, and I turned to look at the young man and said, "Could it be that it was there before, and then moved away?" (To be continued......)
