Chapter 421: You two make up the numbers

The mountain wind in the backyard blew and blew on the body, and at that moment, it was surprisingly quiet.

I always felt that I couldn't accept what others gave me with peace of mind, otherwise it would seem like it would be against my principles. "The place to go to the south of Xilan has been decided, Xiaolin is closer, I'll tell you."

Although Wu Yu said this, it was still herself who was talking close to my ear.

I listened to her whisper, and silently repeated in my mind where she had spoken.

Then, I raised my head to look at her, for a moment, and my expression was even more solemn!

I nodded at her and said, "Xiaoyu, I remember." ”

"When the time comes," I promised her, "I'll send you a message." ”

"It's decided!" Wu Yu stretched out his hand.

"It's such a happy decision," I also reached out and handed it over, and the two of them struck each other on the palms.

In the night, by the fire, this high-five sounded extremely loud!

I didn't expect it to be so loud, all because this relationship is too quiet.

She and I were both startled, and quickly covered our mouths to listen to the movement in the front hall.

Fortunately, no one made a sound.

I looked at her and breathed a sigh of relief, and I couldn't help but smile at the corner of my mouth!

The rain outside slowed down after most of the night, and slowly began to light up a little.

I watched the raindrops fall from the backyard and speculated that the rain might stop in about half an hour!

Wu Yu and I arrived at this time, and the tense nerves could be completely relaxed!

I took the rest of the cake from the large bag I had brought with me. He handed her a piece, and the two of them sat around the fire and began to gnaw.

The hot soup in the evening is digested as early as the middle of the night, and even if you just eat a cold snack, you will feel that the taste of the cake is sweet! "Xiaoyu. It's almost time to leave after dawn. “

I nibbled on the cake in my mouth and turned my head to see her speak in a low tone.

Separation is imminent, but the routes taken by the two people are exactly opposite.

Speaking of which, the encounter was accidental, as long as it was a short time, maybe I wouldn't be able to touch her, and she was the same!

Planned. I'm going to Nanhua Town, and my destination is where Wu Yu came from.

She was going to Suzhou City to take a boat south.

That moment. Both of them were in a somewhat complicated mood, and they both felt that there were some things that needed to be said before parting.

Wu Yu looked at me and was about to speak, when at this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the front hall. Immediately after that, someone came running from that side!

The man ran fast. I was shocked!

Yesterday they drove me to the backyard of the mountain temple, and I paid extra attention to them.

In an instant, Wu Yu and I glanced at each other, still holding the unfinished snacks in my hands, and immediately stood up and looked at the visitor with a little vigilance.

The visitor ran to the backyard and stopped, his tone sounding stiff. Almost in a shouting tone, he said, "You two, run along!" ”

I recognized this man as one of the men in the front hall. The purpose of his origin is unknown. "What's the matter with you?"

I was surprised, but I asked politely.

Wu Yu's and I eyes were fixed on the faces of the people who came.

It's always right to be kind and angry when you're out on the road, at least that's what I think.

"There aren't enough people, you two make up the numbers!"

The tone of the person who came sounded very unkind!

Not enough people? Make up the numbers? I frowned and thought about it, but I still didn't quite understand what he meant.

"You two also went to Nanhua Town, didn't you?" The visitor paused for a moment and said, "The bridge on the stream below the mountain has been washed away, so we plan to go down the mountain and build a temporary bridge with dead trees." ”

"There are not enough people, you two are ready-made, just come with us!"

The visitor looked impatient, and after standing still, he hurriedly explained to us.

This time, Wu Yu and I both understood, but the other party didn't even have the tone to discuss, and decided for us on his own?

This feeling is a little too bad to make people feel unpleasant!

You must know that we and they are just strangers we meet by chance on the road to shelter from the rain!

I'm not doing anything yet, Wu Yu moved, the expression on her face looked annoyed, I think she was going to choke with him in the next second!

I hurriedly took a step closer to Wu Yu, reached out and pressed her arm and patted her gently, and then winked at her, which was to soothe her emotions.

I turned my eyes to look at the visitor: "Can you discuss, I can go with you, but she, she plans to go to Suzhou City, it was not all the way." ”

"You let her walk back to the bottom of the mountain when she came, and she will have to walk back later, the road is slippery in the rain, and the road up the mountain is not easy to walk!"

I thought for a while, and said to the eyes of the person who came up: "My strength is okay, I can follow you about it, and I am not worse than her." ”

I tried to speak in a gentle, deliberative tone.

The reason is not because I am afraid of him, but for another reason.

On the way out, Wu Yu and I each have a purpose.

Everyone's time is limited.

What is the point of spending time on the road and arguing with strangers in a place like a mountain temple!

Completely pointless move!

I don't want to waste my time.

The person who came frowned, I was afraid that something would happen, so I hurriedly stepped forward and stood in front of Wu Yu, raised my head and said to him: "Help, my companion has to rush to Suzhou to find her relatives!" "I'm going to Nanhua Town, I can't talk about helping, that's what I should do, and I have to go that way!"

I said calmly: "The bridge is ready, and it is convenient for you to be with others." “

I discussed the details with Wu Yu last night, and although the location of the gang sounded vague, I always felt in my heart that it should be the path I was going to take.

That is, the road to Nanhua Town.

Sure enough. This morning confirmed my idea, and I expected it!

The man's expression looked tense, but I didn't expect him to agree to my request after thinking about it.

He also felt that Wu Yu had already walked here from Nanhua Town. It's a bit unreasonable to let her go down the mountain and turn back.

The bigger reason may be that I have always been patient and friendly with him, and I have not shown any displeasure. "Wait a minute, it's too messy to light a fire here at night to keep warm, and the luggage needs to be sorted out a little." "Alright, hurry up!" The tone of the visitor was a little softer.

He agreed with me, and then I became a companion who would work with him later. It makes sense to soften your attitude a bit.

As soon as the words fell, another person came from the front hall, walked to the porch and glanced at us. Immediately said loudly: "What are you still rubbing!" Hurry down the mountain. “

Could it be that this plucking man was taught by the same master? Every speech is like bringing your own gunpowder.

I suppressed the unhappiness in my heart, and comforted myself that maybe the weather was too bad, and they were quite angry after a long delay!

All right. Don't be like them.

Someone came and held out his hand. It turned out to be a posture that was going to take me away.

I hurriedly avoided it, and only had time to turn around and take the package on my back, and Wu Yu was also pushed by him.

I kept looking at her and telling her not to get angry, so she also sank and hurriedly picked up her bag and carried it on her back.

Next, she and I were taken to the front hall at the same time.

The man who sent me to the backyard yesterday to take shelter from the rain seemed to be the oldest of the group, and several of them looked at him for instructions.

In my opinion. If it is a mansion like the Yuwen family, this person should at least be at the level of a steward.

He listened briefly to his companion's statement. Then he said in a deep voice: "Without further ado, the bridge will be built as soon as possible, so as not to delay our trip to Nanhua Town." “

After that, a group of people who had packed up and took me and Wu Yu out of the mountain temple together.

Their carriage was still parked at the temple gate.

At this moment, I threw my things in the cart, and asked me if I wanted to work with them, and I took my baggage and threw it in the carriage together.

Everything is in one place to make sure I don't run away.

When it was time to break up, Wu Yu stood in place, looking at me with some reluctance in his eyes.

I only had time to step forward and say, "I'll send you a message when the time comes." “

She nodded, and followed us from the trail outside the mountain temple through the woods to the mountain path

The rain outside stopped by this time.

When our group walked to the mountain road, we saw a carriage coming from the fork in the road in the south of the mountain.

Because it is not a pipeline to Nanhua Town, the surrounding roads leading to the neighboring countryside are still smooth.

I had an idea, and immediately broke free from the person who grabbed me, rushed to the carriage and stopped the car, and said to the handlebar: "Big brother, are you going to Suzhou?" “

Since I am not from Nanhua Town, the biggest possibility is to go to Suzhou along the mountain road I once walked!

The people in the car looked like the local simple mountain people, and when they saw this, they answered me and said: "That's right, little brother, we are going to Suzhou, do you want to take a ride?" "Big brother, it's not me, it's my companion!"

I explained.

Then, I shouted at the back: "Xiaoyu, what are you still doing in a daze, there is a hitchhike to Suzhou!" “

Fortunately, the people who followed me saw the clue and didn't come up to stop it.

I have already said in advance that I will help them build a bridge together when I go to Nanhua Town, and there will be nothing to do with Wu Yu!

Now they saw that I had stopped the hitchhiker for the sake of my own companions, and for a short time the group did not come forward to reprimand me.

Wu Yu carried the burden on his back and got into the carriage of the mountain people.

I watched the car go away, she kept turning her head to look at me, and I waved at her!

It wasn't until the carriage turned a bend in the mountain road that I couldn't see it anymore that I was immediately relieved.

What I did just now was because I was worried that those people would regret it, and the best way was to let Wu Yu leave first.

The mountain people's carriage came just in time! "I'll go with you." I simply dropped a sentence and strode forward.

After a few steps, they were light, and they were caught by the man in charge of their carriage.

Then the two wagons drove down the hill at great speed.

In this way, Wu Yu and I have completely parted ways!

I'll calculate the time for her, according to the speed of the carriage just now, as long as there is no major problem on the road in Suzhou, she will be able to reach Suzhou City this afternoon!

If she's quicker and luckier, maybe she'll be able to catch a boat heading south today!

Suzhou City did not have ships going to the north during this time, because the shipping channel near the north was frozen, but there were always ships going south.

I heard Yuanbao say that every day, many boats depart from the dock at the south gate of Suzhou and go to the south of Xilan.

What Wu Yu wants to take in the plan is that kind of boat!

On the mountain road, the sound of the wheels of the car sounds.

Their horses were running very fast, but luckily the road was a little muddy but undamaged.

I wonder if I won't see the washed out bridge until I get down the mountain!

I thought to myself, the car didn't mean to slow down at all, and it was speeding all the way.

After a few turns, it slowed down a little!

As I concentrated, I could faintly hear the sound of the waterfall and knew that we were getting closer to our destination.

Thinking about this group of people, they are also very concerned, and it rained so heavily last night, and they resolutely dispatched people to go out to explore the way.

On behalf of them, they are very thoughtful.

If it had not been for that, the men in the two carriages would have had to turn back again if they had reached the stream without hesitation.

The rain was so heavy that even I, a bystander, felt depressed when I thought about it.

I sat in the car, thinking about what happened after I arrived in Nanhua Town, and thinking about what happened to the stone bridge over the stream for a while, and my mind didn't stop for a moment.

Time passed very quickly, and it felt like it wasn't long apart, and the carriage reached the brook they had spoken of.

When I looked up, I knew that what Wu Yu said when I talked to me was true, because at a glance, I knew that the terrain in this area was obviously very low!

Thinking about the plains before I arrived, I had the impression of a map in my mind.

After all, I drew it in my own hand in the study, according to the map of Suzhou in the tsundere boy's study.

I'm quite impressed with some of the details above.

Including the plain site between the mountain and Nanhua Town, and the address of the village marked on it.

A few thoughts passed through my mind at this moment, and the carriage stopped inadvertently, and before my eyes was the raging stream, and the washed out bridge was visible.

If it weren't for the continuous heavy rain, the mountain streams here would not have skyrocketed so fiercely!

I stood by the stream and watched, a little frightened.

In fact, the stream is not too wide, the mountains and forests in this area are all towering trees, according to the plan of the group of people around them, choosing to move a few dead trees should be able to build a temporary bridge over the stream.

As long as the carriage can pass, there is absolutely no problem with people.

The people in the car all came down one by one and stood in a pile on the bank of the stream. (To be continued.) )
