Chapter 128: He didn't mean it

Outside, the rain was getting lighter.

In the main house, after Tianfang collected the needle, he said to the eldest mother: "You have to continue to take the medicine." ”

His eyes flashed, and then he said, "My little brother's prescription is not bad, I have already read it." ”

"Auntie, when there are more medicinal herbs on Kaichun Mountain, remember not to forget to pick them when the time comes."

Tianfang turned his head and glanced at the weather outside.

At this time, because of the decrease in rain, the sky also looks brighter.

Although it is not clear where Xiaoling got the opportunity, or simply the credit of the "second brother" who followed him.

In short, she must have specifically mentioned the matter of medicinal herbs, and it must not be a joke.

The little girl won't joke about these things, and the eldest lady has also warmly entertained them.

The exact news will not be known until we meet her.

Tianfang lowered his head, thinking that the guards who were ahead should be about to deliver the next news.

Is there any new development this time?!

"You wait here, Xiaoling, I'll go see the rain outside."

After being silent for a while, the tsundere boy stood up and looked at me and whispered.

I subconsciously moved my gaze to the person next to me.

I saw the decrepit uncle leaning against the stone wall of the cave, sitting there with an absent-minded look.

From the time I mentioned to him the shop in Nanhua Town, he was in this state.

He didn't speak, he sat there alone in a daze.

I watched his reaction and guessed that he had not closed the shop in Nanhua a few years ago out of his own free will, but rather out of necessity.

When I think of this, I have a feeling that I can't put into words.

I do wonder, what made him the way he is? But when asked, he was very resistant, and did not want to go further on the subject.

I also don't have a hobby of asking questions about the need to uncover other people's wounds.

I retracted my gaze, turned my head to look at the tsundere boy and said, "Young Master, I'll go out with you to have a look." ”

When the tsundere boy went fishing by the stream, he used some means to restrain him.

This time≑←dǐng≑←diǎn≑←小≑← said,.β–².o∨s_(); , because it is not far to the mouth of the cave, there is no need to worry about the uncle leaving.

I stared at him, left him with the boy, and walked straight to the mouth of the cave

The rain outside did look a little lighter.

I looked at the tsundere boy standing beside me and said, "Are you curious, what Uncle didn't say just now?" ”

I'm sure he feels the same way I do, and he's curious!

The young man snorted coldly in his nostrils, and said with his negative hand behind him: "Xiaoling, you don't have to think too much, what else can you do, it's probably his own problem." ”

"Why are you so sure, it's not necessarily true!"

I looked at him hesitantly.

"Whatever the reason, Xiaoling," the tsundere boy turned to look at me, "even if there was some unavoidable reason for the closure of the store in the first place, it wouldn't be the reason why he stole chickens and dogs in the town later." ”

"People are always responsible for what they have done."

The young man spoke, glanced into the distance, and seemed to think of something for a moment.

I stood beside him, frowned in surprise, and then asked, "Wait for the rain to stop and go on the road?" ”

I think his mood seems to be calmer now, not as hostile and resistant as when we brought the decrepit uncle at the beginning, and I wonder if I can ask again.

"Young Master, are you sure we have to go this way," I looked across the forest in front of me, "I think the valley is full of dense forests. ”

"Do we want to go back to the road we originally took, Uncle built with us."

As soon as the words fell, the tsundere boy immediately replied: "No, just go this way." ”

"Young Master, are you angry or do you really think this path is the right one?"

I hesitated for a moment before asking.

"Xiaoling, what he built may not be right, although I am not sure, but I always have to take a look."

The tsundere boy's tone was very affirmative, but I didn't know what to say for a moment!

Whenever the eldest young master is stubborn and insistent, if I play against him, I am afraid that the two of them will quarrel again in the next moment.

"Okay," I glanced at him, lowered my head and said helplessly, "I still listen to you, but don't take me to the ditch!" ”

The young man laughed, looked at me with a cold look in his eyes, and said coldly: "Xiaoling, I didn't expect you to suspect that a companion who was born and died with you was actually more than a stranger?" ”

"Xiaoling, we don't even have this diǎn trust between us?"

"Young Master, you misunderstood," I quickly tugged at his sleeve and explained, "I didn't mean that, I just said that the road ahead is uncertain, and I was worried that there would be danger." ”

"Okay, you don't have to explain," the young man waved his hand, nonchalant, "Xiaoling, anyway, you just need to remember my words, don't trust that guy too easily." ”

The young man said decisively: "You also heard it before, and he couldn't help it!" ”

"He does have some suspicions, I know," I paused, and continued, "but we also met him in Pingshui, and it is reasonable that he does not fully trust us. ”

I hesitated, and there were still two words left unspoken!

If I were the uncle, the first impression of the tsundere boy was very bad, and it must be very difficult to think about the scene on the edge of the pit, and it must be difficult for me to open my heart to him.

Also, the arrogant attitude he showed on the road will not give a good impression either.

The combination of the two reasons, coupled with the shadow left by the previous abduction by the people of the alien camp, will not build trust in people in a short period of time.

It is not right for him to deceive us, but he has a point.

In my opinion, as long as we return to the official road and go half of the road towards the sky, we will have nothing to do with him.

Besides, Wu Yu fell in love with me, and if she teamed up with me, looking at her face, at least I wouldn't want this person to be trapped in the mountains!

Once the idea was settled, I didn't want to discuss it with the teenager more.

I sat with him at the mouth of the cave and waited for a while, and when I saw that the rain had stopped affecting the road, I decided to go back and call out the decrepit uncle and go forward together.

The young man walked a few steps inside, looked back at me coldly, and said, "The heart of guarding against people is indispensable." ”

After that, he said no more

Although there was a small friction in my words, as soon as I waited for the burden to walk out of the cave with my back on my back, the young man looked at it several times, stopped, and snatched my burden away.

"Or, young master, I'll help you carry that bow." I'm struggling.

The young man turned around, stared at me and shook his head and said, "Then it's better for you to carry the burden yourself, things are on you, what should I do when I encounter danger!" ”

After that, he said no more, and quickened his pace to move forward.

The three of them continued to maintain the formation of hurrying through the forest before the rain entered the cave.

The boy took the lead, walking first, I followed in the middle, and the last naturally the decrepit uncle was at the end.

The three of them walked on the mountain road and turned to another place.

Looking ahead, the terrain is a descending slope, stretching a large forest.

The young man suddenly stopped, turned his head to look at me, and asked hesitantly in his tone, "Xiaoling, how much dry food is left in the baggage?" ”

"Why did you remember to ask this, eldest young master?"

I looked up at him.

"Nothing, just ask."

He replied in a calm tone.

I knew he wouldn't ask for no reason, so I just stopped and confirmed.

"When I came out of my mother's house, I gave a lot of food, but it was too heavy at the time, so I only took a part."

There was diǎn wet on the rocks after the rain, and I took my burden off the back of the teenager.

Glancing around and seeing that there was nowhere to put it, I still carried it in my hand.

I looked at the baggage carefully and said to the boy, "At that time, I felt that the things were too heavy, and I didn't want to carry them!" β€œ

"If I had known that we would be going deep into the mountains, I would have brought more."

We stayed at a mountain man's house in the middle of the road twice, once because I had treated the lady for a leg ailment.

The second time I stayed, I cooked and the atmosphere was also very good, so I got the food given by the hostess.

It adds up to a lot of things in the baggage.

But walking on the road consumes a lot of food, and the amount of food is more than usual, so we don't have much food left at this point.

Deep in the mountains, there is no wild fruit to grow in this season, and there is no better way to find food except to catch fish and hunt wild animals.

After listening to this, the young man followed and looked at it, and he lowered his head with a thoughtful look.

After a while, he turned his head to look at our "attendant".

Uncle Fu couldn't help but shudder at the eyes of the tsundere boy: "I don't have much to eat in my baggage, and it's all used up on the road." ”

"When I came out of the alien camp, I had nothing to eat."

I know this, when he saw us, as soon as he got him up from the pit, he came up and begged for food.

After reading it, I put away my burden and put it on my shoulder.

Seeing this, the young man immediately took a step closer and took the burden from my shoulder.

"It's raining, and it's muddy on the road," the young man stared at me and said, "This diǎn weight is nothing!" ”

"Xiaoling, you concentrate on the road, just don't fall into the ditch."

The boy threw down a sentence and walked on.

I was stunned, but I came back to my senses, what I said to him earlier, he was waiting for an opportunity to pay back!

Keep going down the slope.

The sight is always full of tall trees.

I don't know if it's because it's at the bottom of the valley, but the trees in this area are very luxuriant, and I feel like I see a primeval forest.

But the longer I walked, the more I trembled.

Why do I think that if I walk like this, I will get farther and farther away from the official road?

To be honest, I'm actually more inclined to the way that my uncle built at the beginning.

It's just that the tsundere boy likes to gamble and is very stubborn, so it's hard for me to reason with him.

Because of the things he has identified, he doesn't like others to question them.

Thoughts flashed through my mind, and I took mechanical steps under my feet.

Following behind the tsundere boy, the whole person was in a state of numb walking

The tsundere boy has a diǎn right, in the dense forest after the rain, the road under his feet is not easy to walk.

As we walked, I was careless and almost tripped over a branch.

Staggered to a stand, the young man looked back and saw my wolf bΓ¨i, shook his head and said, "Xiaoling, what do you say?!" ”

I was also ashamed, and lowered my head and answered, "I'll be careful of diǎn." ”

In embarrassment, I looked back at the "tail" that followed behind me.

We descended the slope, and now a clearing could be seen in front of the forest.

But when I looked back, Uncle Decrepit who was following behind was actually a little unrelenting.

Is there something wrong with him like that?!

I threw away the thoughts in my heart, took a few steps back and asked, "Uncle, is there anything wrong with your view of the terrain or have you heard people of other races talk about it?" ”

As long as it's related to him, I think of the shop he closed.

When he talks about the state of aliens, I can't help but think about them.

He looked blankly ahead for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No." ”

The tsundere boy glanced at him coldly, walked up to me and said, "Xiaoling, you follow diǎn." ”

I turned my eyes suspiciously, always feeling that Uncle Decrepit seemed to have something to hide.

Given the premise that he wouldn't even say where he really was, my doubts only lasted for a moment

In the stove of the mountain people's house, a simple lunch was postponed for a full hour.

The cook was accompanied by the guards who were placed next to him the same day, and there were four people who ate in total.

"Auntie, the road to Nanhua Town is not close here, isn't there any other town to the north?"

The guard stopped his chopsticks and asked.

"Yes, but when the people in the village came to look for it this morning, they said that they wanted to set a car to go to Nanhua Town, but their car broke down again and they wanted to take a ride, so they went to Nanhua Town."

The eldest lady replied in a smooth tone: "Nanhua Town is bigger than the town we went to the north. ”

Tianfang lowered his head to eat, and without eating much, he went out of the stove and went out into the courtyard outside.

The rain is getting lighter and lighter, and it looks like it's about to stop.

The two guards chatted with the eldest lady for a few words, and as they spoke, their eyes occasionally looked at Tianfang, who was standing under the tree in the courtyard.

The Lord seems to have something on his mind, and the news from the mountains has not yet arrived, perhaps because of the heavy rain.

The guards glanced at each other, and one of them asked, "Auntie, how many people from the village go to the Northland?" ”

"There were a few years ago, and there are those who stayed there." The eldest lady took a bite of food and said, "There are some specialties in the Northland, which we don't have here." ”

"There are still scarce medicinal herbs in the fur, and there are quite a few in the North," the eldest lady paused, and continued, "There are people in the village who used to help the merchants over there. ”

The eldest lady is naturally talking about the Sealand people who do business in the Northland.

Since the beginning of the war, many people who have lived in the Northland for many years, and have even settled in there, and even those whose families are with them have returned from the Northland intermittently.

When the war officially resumes, it is estimated that a large number of people will rush back! "Auntie," Tianfang finally returned from the courtyard.

The two guards looked at each other again, and Qi Qi breathed a sigh of relief, and the lord's mood seemed to be better. (To be continued.) )
