Even if I didn't dig deeper, I could appreciate the meaning. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Again, I understood his concerns and subconsciously stared at him for a while.

I thought about it for a moment and explained to Uncle Decline: "Uncle, don't get me wrong. ”

"I don't mean to take you away with the eldest young master."

Without going through any further twists, I decided that I would take a straight position.

At least let him figure out that the boy had no ill will towards him in this matter.

"From the very beginning, I made it very clear, I am on this trip with the eldest young master...... We have our own destination that we want to go to, which is the Northland. ”

I looked down and thought about it, then looked at him and said, "But uncle, I have stopped in Nanhua Town for a while on the road, and I know how much you used to live." ”

Speaking of this paragraph, I thought about it, and tried to use as tactful as possible, less hurtful words.

Even if it's a person like Uncle Decay, even if he's a very bad person, life is indescribable, presumably he won't like others to say very harsh things directly.

I'd like to think of him from the point of view of good intentions, or if he still has some unavoidable distress in his heart.

Why do you want to think that?

Just because they are not natives of Nanhua Town, when Dr. Wu's family first came to the town, they relied on his medical skills to make a living.

In contrast, Uncle Decay seems to be too nonexistent.

If it weren't for the special experience he had a few years ago, he might have been a businessman doing a little business in town.

This person is indeed not a good character, and he is not the same person as Dr. Wu who saved the dead and helped the wounded, but he has no great evil.

He knocked me unconscious at that moment, just to prevent me from going to the cave passage, and he knew in his heart that it was a risky thing to do, and he might even take his life.

The difference between me and the tsundere boy is because our attitude towards him is also different.

The experience of being looked down upon and ridiculed in the town for a long time inevitably made his mentality a little unbalanced.

In other words, the personality and style of the tsundere boy are also the reason why he is prone to hatred, which I know very well in my heart.

I looked at Uncle Decline and said gently: "Uncle, if you go back to Nanhua Town, your life may still be the same, and it will not be easy to ......."

"I don't think you like to repeat that life day by day, uncle."

I paused and glanced at the boy, but he didn't respond, so I continued.

I said to Uncle Decline, "So I discussed it with the eldest young master, and he meant to give you a chance." ”

"If you ask me what I think, I think you can choose not to go back to Nanhua Town."

After that, I pursed my lips and looked at my uncle, waiting for his response.

"Where can I go?"

A look of uncertainty flashed in the uncle's eyes, and he looked at me with a stiff face and asked.

"The eldest young master has a house in Suzhou, you can find a job there."

I looked at him and said in a gentle tone, "It's absolutely no problem to feed yourself." ”

Uncle Decrepit looked at the tsundere boy, his expression full of suspicion.

Just like when I heard the teenager make a suggestion.

We all feel teenager...... This eldest young master is not so kind!

Is he that kind?

The young man turned around and walked a few steps, stopped beside us and looked at Uncle Decline, and said in a flat tone: "If you don't want to stay at my house, you can go to Suzhou Street to find something to do by yourself." ”

"Suzhou is very big, and a job is easy to find."

He said it quite simply, without the slightest hint of force.

Indeed, you must know that because of the uncle's actions halfway, the tsundere boy thought about clearing the obstacles.

I was convinced again!

The tsundere boy told me before that he was willing to help Uncle Decrepit just because of me.

"So be it...... I can give you some silver, and when you get to Suzhou, you go to the east of the city......"

The boy said an address, but it didn't sound like where I used to live.

How do you hear that the location is close to a shop on the east bridge of Suzhou City!

Could it be that it is also the industry of the Yuwen family in Suzhou?

I looked at the boy with a frown, and he winked at me, so I didn't ask more.

...... The conditions are very clear, and after thinking about it, Uncle Fu looked at the tsundere boy with a hint of hesitation and said, "I may not be able to do the work of a big family, or ...... Or ......"

It is estimated that it is difficult to say that if he wants some money, he will find a job by himself.

His previous behavior made him worried.

I answered: "Uncle, it's okay, the eldest young master said in advance, you can choose the latter." ”

Since the young man has thought about it, the people at the bottom of Suzhou City should look at him a little bit later.

After all, I had a word with the teenager first.

If Uncle Decay doesn't cherish the opportunity given to him, he will have to bear the consequences himself.

I wanted to say something more, but I swallowed it anyway.

I think I really want to say it...... On the contrary, it seems redundant.

That's his life, not mine.

I'd like to help, but I don't want to interfere too much!

...... When it got dark, I passed by a cave that served as a temporary overnight stop, and I chose this place after inspecting it with the boy.

We certainly have plans for the next step.

The plan was to wait for the second half of the night when the sky was bright and continue to set out to find the road to the official road in the mountains and forests.

If the eldest young master's estimate is not wrong...... He was talking about us getting closer to the next stop.

If you're lucky, you'll be able to find the official road after dawn...... I'm afraid we'll be in town tomorrow at noon!

That's great news for me.

The premise is that we think optimistically and come to a conclusion.

If you think about it from a pessimistic point of view, you don't need to delve into it.

Anyway, it will be difficult to find a way to the next stop, or even get lost in the mountains.

I look at the face of the tsundere boy, it doesn't look like he's unsure.

He's always shown me that I can rely on him at critical moments, and I think I have every reason to believe in him again.

What's more, he told me that as long as you come out of the cave passage, it will be different from the original.

I asked him carefully why.

The tsundere boy told me that when he got to the mountains and forests, he would have the opportunity to deliver the message.

So even if we lose time or lose our way, once the news gets out, it will change the situation.

There are people under him who respond, and starting from Suzhou, I am afraid that he has already arrived at the next stop.

When that happens, we won't be trapped in the mountains, and there will definitely be help to help us get out of this situation.

It's just that the delay will be longer.

That's a situation I don't want to see!

I know the worst outcome, no matter how you go, the dark road in your heart will never get worse.

If you're lucky, you might be able to find a way out.

I don't think it's a small possibility, so it's better to be optimistic.

...... In the cave, the eldest young master, who is experienced in survival in the wild, has already lit the fire that has gathered dead branches.

It's something he's good at, and I've done it many times when I'm on the road with him.

Uncle Decrepit was a little farther away and sat on the edge of the fire that was kindled.

The fire in the cave raised the temperature around me a lot, and the young man suddenly stood up and looked at me and said, "Xiaoling, I'll go with him to find something to eat nearby, you stay here, don't run around." ”

I looked at the tsundere boy in amazement, and forgot how to answer for a while.

I was just as surprised as Uncle Decrepit, with a questioning look on his face.

The young man coughed and said, "Xiaoling, it's so cold, your clothes haven't dried yet, and it's too cold after nightfall." ”

He said a few words, and when he saw that Uncle Yuan and I were still staring at him, he became uncomfortable for a moment.

The young man looked at me and said loudly: "With your body, if you fall ill, you have to let the master carry you on the road, can't you be thrown down?" ”

"You just stay here, dry your clothes and wait for us to come back."

Belch...... All right!

After the young man finished speaking, he looked at Uncle Decay who was guarding the fire and said angrily: "You go out with me, look for food, just look for it nearby." ”

The two of them walked out of the cave one after the other, and their figures disappeared at the mouth of the cave.

I watched them leave, frowned, and as the tsundere boy said, immediately began drying clothes by the fire.

I'll have to pack up before they get back, or I'll miss this opportunity and it'll be hard to find the next one.

There are too few opportunities to be alone on the road.

Taking off my coat and watching the water vapor gradually rise, I glanced in the direction of the mouth of the cave, and my mind was a little blank for a moment.

...... The tsundere boy and Uncle Decrepit came back after about half an hour.

Counting the time, it was about dark outside.

I gave up the cave to the two and walked straight out.

It was getting dark, and there was no light in sight, meaning there were no villages nearby.

I looked halfway up the slope of the cave for a few moments, my eyes sweeping over my surroundings and then moving into the distance.

Looking at the whole thing, I couldn't find any light source, but the night pearl in my hand was brighter.

When I walked back in from outside, they were both silent, each thinking about what was on their minds.

If I hadn't entered from outside, perhaps the silence and even a slightly dreary atmosphere would have continued.

When I walked in, my steps were deliberately heavy.

...... When the tsundere boy went out with Uncle Decrepit to look for food, he couldn't find any fish in the mountain streams in this area.

I don't know if it's because of the hot spring water mixed in.

They inevitably came back with a look of disappointment.

The range of activities of teenagers is a little wider and the movements are faster.

He only found a few wild fruits in the nearby mountains and forests, and the quantity was very small, and he could only use it as food to satisfy his hunger.

When I returned to the cave, the boy whispered to me, "When it is daylight, it will be convenient to go hunting in the forest." ”

The boy didn't have to worry much, because I had the same experience as him.

In fact, we're all used to the experience of finding something to eat in the mountains.

The fatigue of walking and the psychological pressure made Uncle Decrepit the first to fall asleep against the stone wall of the cave.

We each occupied a side of the clearing near the fire.

The sound of the uncle snoring while he was asleep lingered in the cave.

Yet I was awake all the time.

I've experienced this feeling before, that is, my body feels tired, but my brain is always thinking about things.

There were so many emotions that it was hard for me to fall asleep for a while.

I wondered if I would find a way out of the official road tomorrow, and I also thought about how I would approach the team of the king when I got to the north.

I've thought of several options, and I've been thinking about this on the way here.

...... After about half an hour, I moved and accidentally touched a scattered dead branch on the side, making a slight noise.

The voice of the tsundere boy sounded softly: "Xiaoling, you can't sleep?" ”

"Hmm." I answered.

Before I could think about it, the boy got up, and I heard the movement and couldn't help but turn my head to where he was.

I saw the boy reach out and untie the burden he had been carrying.

I have the impression that this burden is like a universal toolbox, I have seen him take out the rope for climbing, I have seen him take out sharp tools, but what impressed me the most was ......

After a short while, he took out a tightly wrapped thing, slowly opened it and looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but sigh.

Then he walked over to the fire and reached close to the source of the fire.

With the movements of the teenager, I smelled a burst of aroma, and even the uncle who was snoring while he was sleeping turned over, maybe he also smelled this smell in his sleep.

It's familiar, the taste of dim sum I've eaten.

The boy approached me, crouched down and whispered to me, "It's a pity that it's wet with water, and it tastes worse." ”

After a pause, the boy continued: "I'll take it by the fire and roast it, and you will eat a few bites, I know you can't sleep, you should be hungry." ”

"Xiaoling, give."

The boy reached out and handed the snack over, and I didn't know what to say.

It seems that in memory, this situation has played out again and again on the road.

It is true that the tsundere boy has an extremely hateful side, but sometimes, he can really give people a ...... A familiar feeling.

I lowered my eyelids, tempted to say that I couldn't sleep because I wasn't hungry, and I wanted to explain something...... But in the end, I still didn't say it.

I reached out and took the piece of snack from the boy's hand, and I broke it in half and handed it back to him.

The young man shook his head, handed it over again, and said, "It's all for you, I don't need it." ”

In the light of the fire, his eyes flashed, and a smile bloomed on the corner of his mouth.

...... After dark, there are still late arrivals or new arrivals in the inn of the town to eat in the inn.

Looking at this situation, I'm afraid that there will be people in the first half of the night, but there are not as many running halls on duty as during the day.

Tianfang and several of them were still gathered in the room where he lived at the moment.

Speaking of which, they are not far apart, but Tianfang thinks of some trivial things, and it is inevitable that they need to be explained one by one. (To be continued.) )
