The boy's sudden words startled me.

I quickly grabbed his sleeve and asked, "Hey, what's wrong?" “

With his personality, he must have really sensed that something was wrong.

My first reaction was that the porridge I just drank was inappropriate.

After thinking about it, the driver who pulled us also entered the entrance, no one would be stupid enough to use poison himself, right?

I see that the coachman drank more porridge than the two of us combined, and he drank several bowls, could it be that there was something wrong with the bowl?

A few thoughts passed through my mind one after another, and the expression I looked at the young man suddenly became solemn.

The young man patted my arm and said, "Xiaoling, you think about it, it's the people who stayed in this temple before that there is a problem." “

Hey, he made it clear, and my back was scared into a cold sweat.

A good sentence, I have to divide it into a few sentences, scare me for no reason, it's okay to be timid and can't stand the scare?! "What's the problem?" He is a person who often says half of his meaning, and he speaks all over people's hearts. "Xiaoling, I want to check it out, go to the lake." Young vocal voice.

After he finished speaking, I heard the footsteps of the coachman, and the two people who were gathered together reacted quickly and immediately pulled away a little, almost subconsciously!

I looked at the boy and I looked at the driver who had come back from the backyard.

I glanced at the coachman, lowered my gaze for a moment, and suggested to him. "It's raining so hard, uncle rests first. If the rain stops in two hours, we will have to travel at night, but we can sleep in the car. ”

In the eyes of ordinary people. This is a reasonable, well-intentioned arrangement.

I'm not traveling with the teenager in the car, but I can still watch the weather at vigil.

He rested in the temple, and the task of keeping an eye on the weather was left to me and the boy.

Those who drive the car must rest first, fatigue driving is the most unacceptable, as a traverser, I know this better than anyone else.

The driver readily agreed, and nodded gratefully at me.

He walked over to the small area that the boy had cleared. Wrapped in an old quilt that he had taken from the car, he leaned back and fell asleep.

Before going to bed, the coachman told me to wake him up immediately if he saw that the rain had stopped. He will try to send us to Suzhou as soon as possible, and Suzhou also has guests with him.

If I could catch up, both sides would naturally rejoice, and I said yes.

The driver did hard physical work. The habit of developing is not to pick a place. Fell asleep quickly.

I also took into account the position of the eldest young master in making this suggestion.

There are several reasons.

With his picky personality, asking him to stay in the broken temple is already "abusing him"!

You must know that in the past few days in the mountains, he has complained a lot.

I know that it is difficult for him to sleep peacefully in such a place, and he was still worried about the affairs of Suzhou City before, so I am afraid it will be even more difficult to sleep peacefully.

Both of them raised questions, saying that they would have to take action after a while.

After all, when the coachman fell asleep, we were less constrained.

After a while, a snoring sounded in the corner. The boy waited for more than a quarter of an hour and walked over gently. The shot is steady and fast!

The coachman fell limply to the ground, and the quilt he was wrapped around became a mat.

I was startled, so I stepped forward and grabbed the boy's arm and blurted out, "Hey, what are you doing?" What did you do to him? ”

"Let him sleep more deeply," the young man glanced at me and said unhurriedly, "Xiaoling, lest he wake up in the middle and be difficult to deal with." ”

The young man pushed my hand away, walked to the corner, and took the pile of dead branches that had been brought over and fiddled with them, and soon tied them into a torch.

I watched him with extremely flexible fingers, and it was a bit pleasing to the eye.

There was a touch of appreciation in his eyes, I just wanted to praise his hands-on ability, and suddenly remembered that something was wrong?

What's wrong?

I thought about it right away, the point was that it was raining so hard outside, and a torch -- the top hair was used! "You'll have to wait until the rain lights down before you leave."

I hesitated for a moment and whispered, "If there is no other way."

I was a little embarrassed, and finally gritted my teeth and said, "If you can't help it, you have to let him faint for a long time, and he should be fine overnight." “

The young man glanced at me coldly, and suddenly smiled: "Xiaoling, just now I said that I was ruthless, but now I actually said that I would let people sleep until dawn." “

It is true that the initial reaction sounded a bit of a slap in the face at this moment, but the situation was different, and he was frightened by his sudden action before.

I watched his sharp and fast gestures, and instinctively thought of it

"Isn't there no way to make this decision? Just now I thought you were going to do that."

I glanced at the boy and bowed my head.

"Will the master be so stupid, put the ready-made handlebar style and don't use it, and just do it and end him up?" The young man snorted in his nostrils, "Xiaoling, what do you think?" ”

The corners of my mouth twitched, and I apologized to him: "Yes, you weren't that stupid, I was wrong." ”

The young man's brows furrowed, although it was an apology, but it sounded a little weird.

He didn't think much about it, his eyes swept out, and when I saw his reaction, I immediately said, "It's raining so hard outside, I don't approve of walking at night." ”

I was explaining to him why he had changed his mind and was willing to follow his decision, because although the coachman was kind, the risk had to be borne by everyone, and the mountain road was muddy and difficult to walk after the heavy rain in the mountains.

In addition, before I came, the coachman also said at the tea stall that it had rained heavily the night before, and I was a little worried.

I tugged at the boy's sleeve and said, "You can do it, but you have to make sure he wakes up and it doesn't matter." "It's just the feeling of sleeping." "That's for sure, I said it, I need someone to catch the car."

The boy looked at me and said in a calm tone, which was indeed reassuring.

I walked outside the door, looked at the rain outside, turned back and said, "Let's wait half an hour." If the rain is lighter, I will set off, and I will see that there are still clothes on the car. "If the rain really can't stop, even luck can't stop until it's almost dawn." I frowned at the boy and said, "Then you're going to give up on any plan to check it out." "It's none of our business if there is a situation by the lake," I stressed to him, "We are just passers-by, and there is only one destination, which is Suzhou City!" ”

Looking down at the coachman who had fallen against the wall, I stopped talking to the boy. His snoring could be heard in the room.

It sounds like even breathing, and it must not be injured.

I walked over and covered the driver's cover. Looking back at the young man, he said, "You can help me, go to the backyard and get some more dead branches." “

The young man was stunned, looked at me blankly, and said, "What are you doing?" “

This person is really inexplicable to ask, let him take the withered branch and talk so much. I sighed. Stand up on your own.

The young man turned his gaze, looked at the fire on the ground, and suddenly said, "Xiaoling, the master didn't say not to take it, just asked." “

He left me and went to the backyard on his own, returning with a bundle of dead branches in his hand.

I rekindled the fire on the ground, and I figured that I would walk away with him for the rest of the night. The fire made by the dead branches was enough by about dawn.

The night in the mountains is cold, and I am afraid that the uncle on the ground will freeze. After all, it was me and the boy who caused him trouble.

People have a good car, and they are very polite to the guests, who is to provoke whom! "Xiaoling, you are kind." The boy whispered.

I smiled and looked up at him: "Each other, in fact, you are the same, it is not bad." “

I couldn't see the young man's face, but I saw that he turned his head away for a moment, and he probably blushed at my words.

How would this guy describe him?

It's awkward and arrogant, but he has some advantages that ordinary people don't have

I went outside and looked again, and the rain seemed to be lightening a little, and I thought I would wait another quarter of an hour before I could go.

I glanced back at the room, where the boy was doing business, and I walked to the place where the carriage was parked and rummaged in the mezzanine behind the carriage.

I quickly found what I needed, hugged it in my arms and walked slowly back to the house.

When I got back to the temple, I saw the boy crouching in the corner, continuing to hold torches, and it seemed that not only did he and I have to carry two more in our hands.

Just now I turned back to the carriage and found the coat from behind the mezzanine where the coachman had put his miscellaneous belongings, and there were exactly two of them, plus a hat.

Drivers usually carry rain gear on their backs, and the guests he most often pulls are only one or two, considering the risk of carts on the mountain roads, not only the coachman himself, but also a guest who helps.

So the driver was careful, and there were two sets of rain gear in the car.

The boy was busy with his head down, I put the things I brought on the table and tidied up, put on my own robe, looked at him and said, "It seems to be a little bigger." “

When he heard the sound, the young man looked up and immediately laughed when he saw me.

The laughter echoed in the room, and I was so embarrassed! "What's so funny?!" I forced my composure and muttered, and took off the robe I had put on.

I knew it was definitely not suitable, but it was raining and it was night, so half of it was for protection from the rain and half for the cold, so I had to wear it.

He doesn't know how to restrain his emotions, so is it really appropriate to make fun of me? "It's funny." The boy did not forget to stick a knife. "Xiaoling, you are wearing too big, it looks like a child stealing an adult's clothes."

The young man bowed his head and said a few words, and suddenly realized something, and looked at me with a more inquiring look.

With a red face, I immediately complained to him: "I just said that on the mountain road, you remember that it was a prison." “

I barely smiled and couldn't be compared to him!

I'm talking about the incident with him about being mistaken by my aunt for being the driver's child, and I used to complain about him at the time

"Tell me, what's wrong?" I asked the teenager.

He groaned and didn't answer, and I lowered my head to spread out the tarpaulin I had taken from the car, and wrapped a few torches in place.

He's fast with his hands and fast at what he does!

This is prepared to be carried, and it is best if it is not used by nature, but when walking at night in the mountains, torches are indispensable.

After waiting for a while, the boy spoke, "When I came in, I saw some marks on the side of the embers. ”

"Why didn't I see that?" I looked at him blankly, and when I entered the temple gate, I realized that I was only too late than him.

"Where would you pay attention to this?" The boy shook his head and said, "Besides, after I check it out, I'll start sweeping it into the corner." ”

As he spoke, he avoided my gaze, a little uncomfortable.

"Oh," I said, looking at the pile of garbage in the corner, and frowned, "what is this?" ”

I crouched down, looked down and picked up small pieces of dirt from the pile of dust, looked at it in my hand, and brought it to my nose to smell it.

"It's silt at the water's edge." I came to a conclusion.

"That's right." The boy replied.

I looked at him thoughtfully, and after a while, I suddenly asked him, "What does this mean?" "Not only the drivers and passengers passing by on the mountain road, but also the villagers who go fishing in the mountains."

A flash of confusion flashed in my eyes, and I paused and continued, "They're all going to rest here." ”

"Besides, when I go down the mountain, there are still some sections of the road that pass the bridge over the river beach," I said as I looked at the young man and winked, "I hope that people will go to the river beach on a whim." "It's not surprising, is it?"

What was that guy fussing about, the atmosphere was like solving a crime.

The young man said word by word: "Xiaoling, you are wrong. “

"What's wrong?" "This road deviates from the mountain road, and only heavy rain will take refuge here."

After listening to me, the young man said, "Xiaoling, from the river beach under the mountain you said to here, no matter how much mud is stained on your feet, it is gone." ”

"If it comes after a heavy rain, the rain washes away, and there is no trace left."

"I didn't expect you to make out it was silt near the water." The boy looked at me with a slightly surprised look.

I looked at him hesitantly, and wondered if I should tell him the reason why I could discern, but after thinking about it, I would give up.

"What do you want to tell me? Do you want to say that the traces found here are those left by people who went to the lake and then came here to rest? I asked the teenager.

He nodded, and a flash of inspiration flashed through my mind.

What did this guy say just now, he saw the traces left in the temple and felt that something was wrong, but he still swept it away quietly, and he didn't show me a word.

Thinking of him stunting the coachman with a steady and fast shot, my whole person is not good!

Approaching the boy, I raised my head and looked at him fiercely and said, "Originally, you were going to check it out, but you planned to hide it from me and make me unconscious, right?" ”

"Yes!" The boy replied quickly, and his tone was even more categorical.

"So how did you change your mind now?" I then asked.

"I'm afraid it's not safe, I'll leave you here alone, I think, I'm worried." The boy bowed his head and said, "It's raining, and it's not a good thing to go to the lake to check it out." ”

"Xiaoling, weigh the two, I still have to take you by my side, feel at ease."

The boy's voice suddenly lowered. (To be continued......)
