The sound of horses' hooves gradually faded away, and the end of East Street in Wuhua Town fell silent again. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Under the setting sun, the shadows of carts, flags, and debris are gradually lengthened, and hidden in them is a lonely figure swaying around.

It's still the same lazy guy just now.

Sometimes he sat half-on the cart, sometimes half-crouched beside the wheels, tilted his head, staring at the two silver coins embedded in the wheels for a long time, but he could not think of a way to make them.

The coin was already small, and only half of its body was exposed...... The lazy man, who could only pinch half of the silver coin with two fingers, gritted his teeth and pulled back a little harder, but unexpectedly, his two fingers slipped, and his whole body fell backwards under inertia, and before the word "oops" could be shouted, his head had hit the ground heavily.

When he got up with his eyes half squinted and touched the back of his head, he struck up in pain, and in his anger, he picked up the stone on the ground and struck it at the silver coin, but the brute force almost knocked the half of the silver coin into the dent, so frightened that he hurriedly threw the stone aside.

In the end, the lazy man simply opened his mouth wide and approached the wheel, "roared", and the two rows of teeth bit the silver coin fiercely, but who knew that after the "click" sound, his eyes suddenly widened and he rolled to the side of the road, covering his mouth with both hands but unable to shout anymore.

After a long time, he sat stupidly on the cart again, and looked at the silver coin that was close in front of him but could not be reached like a mirage for a long time, and he was so angry.

It's a pity that I don't have half a tool around. How easy would it be if there was an axe to split the wheel into pieces and then take out the silver coins?

I wanted to push the cart to the bazaar, but I was afraid that the wheels would crush the silver coins into rotten metal.

I was waiting to borrow some tools from people I knew, but they all went to the market to get work.

"Damn, I don't believe in evil ......" The slacker stared viciously at the two silver coins that seemed to be grinning at him, and he was so desperate that he was completely engaged with these two uninteresting things. He just sat still, letting the golden horizon gradually fall into darkness, and the moon took the place of the setting sun.

Time flies.

By the time the sky was white again, it was already the next day.

……

＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝

It's a new day. In the afternoon, the long street in the west of the town once again ushered in two dusty travelers.

This is a pair of handsome teenagers and girls, but at this time the two of them are dressed quite dirty. The boy was dressed in coarse linen and did not say much; Even the light leno skirt on the girl's body, which seemed to be good, was covered with stains, so dim that it was almost impossible to see the original color.

Both of them looked tired, their eyes were blank, their steps were heavy, and they didn't know how long they had traveled to come to Wuhua Town. After walking through the street for a while, as the locust trees on both sides gradually came into view, the young man, who seemed to be unable to hold on, rushed to the locust tree with its branches and leaves swaying in the wind, and sat directly in the shade with a bend.

"Whew...... Walking on the verge of breaking his feet...... the boy bent his legs and rubbed his knees and heels with his hands in turn, sighing as he rested. After a long while, he raised his right hand again, and looked at the back of his hand for a long time, as if to hide the pouring sun, as if to check whether the back of his hand was tanned, and at the same time muttered, "The sun is so dazzling......

The girl also walked under the shade of the tree, glanced at the young man who was sitting casually on the ground, and after looking around, she did not sit down with her, but just looked at the long street with no end in sight: "I don't know what place ...... here?" ”

"Aren't you tired, don't you sit down and rest?" The boy continued to thump his shins, and looked at the girl who was still standing, but kept tiptoeing.

But the girl looked at the long street, although there were few people, but the few passers-by hurried by, they were all curiously glancing at her and the young man, and after hesitating for a moment, she finally stood still, but what came out of her mouth was a different statement: "Don't ...... Who would sit on the side of the road like you, a wild monkey......"

"Cut, then you stand." The boy glanced at the girl, turned his head and continued to rest in the shade of the tree without care, but he was thinking in his heart: this pig's head had not slept like a baby in the grass in the mountains the night before and last night...... Would you be embarrassed to be in a place where there are people? Tut......

……

In the afternoon of the second day after Lin Xinyin left Wuhua Town, Ling Yueyuan and Ouyang Xiaoling had just entered the town.

Ouyang Xiaoling, who had been walking for almost half a day, and his legs were so sore that he couldn't do it, looked at Ling Yueyuan, who was sitting on the side of the road resting freely, and after waiting for a while, he couldn't help urging anymore: "Have you rested enough?" Let's go! ”

In fact, if it were her a few days ago, she would only turn around and leave directly at this moment, and she wouldn't even say anything about this urging, but in the past two days, she had to walk with Ling Yueyuan due to the situation and the wrong opportunity. Although there are many bumps and bumps along the way, and there are many big and small contradictions, the two can always solve some problems when they work together...... And the existence of this delicate relationship also made her and Ling Yueyuan always maintain a distance that was not far away, and they came all the way here.

…… Think of this monkey as an inexhaustible flint of activity. Ouyang Xiaoling, who had scattered the package he was carrying in the Seven Eyes Ridge, helplessly found such a reason for himself, and at the same time glared at Ling Yueyuan, who was still sitting on the ground.

And Ling Yueyuan naturally couldn't see this meaning, but felt that the other party's tone and eyes made him uncomfortable again. Ben still thought about simply showing her a little more, but after he glared back, he looked at Ouyang Xiaoling who was obviously too tired to do it, but he refused to tell the truth, and then thought about how tired he was from last night over the mountains and mountains and on foot to now, but Shaoqing had no intention of doing it.

It's just that Ling Yueyuan, who was reluctant to get up, was still muttering in his heart: This pig's head, if you are impatient, you can go first, why do you want to wait for me......?

However, even if I just took a short rest, my spirit was much better. After Ling Yueyuan stretched his waist, he turned to ask Ouyang Xiaoling: "Then where do you want to go now?" ”

"Hmm...... Let's go ahead and have a look. Who knew that after Ouyang Xiaoling thought about it for a while, he only said a perfunctory sentence before moving away. There seemed to be a faint hint of redness on the face that flashed in a hurry.

Let's take a look first? It's almost broken when you get to the ground, can't you walk enough? Ling Yueyuan was stunned when she heard this. Isn't it time to find a restaurant, restaurant, pantry, or something like to rest and solve the problem of hunger and thirst by the way......? By the way, I'm going to find someone to ask about Xinyin's whereabouts later!

"Hey......" However, Ling Yueyuan, who had followed forward, had just shouted at Ouyang Xiaoling's back, and was about to prompt a few words, but before the words could be spoken, he suddenly closed his mouth.

He didn't feel anything wrong walking in the uninhabited mountains before, and when he came to this place where money was needed, he remembered that at this moment he was penniless except for a set of tattered clothes, and all the luggage and packages had disappeared without a trace because they were tied to Xiao Huang's body, and now he was in a state almost like a beggar...... What can you do?

Are you embarrassed to find a restaurant and ask Ouyang Xiaoling to treat you? Ling Yueyuan couldn't pull off this face and spoke first, so he simply shut up.

But Ouyang Xiaoling still heard Ling Yueyuan's shout, looked back, and asked, "What?" At this moment, her face returned to normal again, as if the redness on her face just now was just an illusion.

"Nothing...... Then, let's go to the front and take a look first...... "It will be Ling Yueyuan's turn to blush. However, after he touched the placket, he still had a little confidence.

He also hid the step shake given by Lan Cui'er in his arms. It seemed to be worth a lot of money before, but now that it is poor, it seems that it can only find a suitable store or something to sell it and exchange it for some cash......

It's good to have you. Ling Yueyuan pressed the step in his arms through the placket, and breathed a sigh of relief: Otherwise, I would really have to beg for food...... Or go to steal and kidnap like Ye Youyou? Having said that, his pupil technique is really suitable for committing crimes...... Hey!

Ouyang Xiaoling, who was walking in front, saw that Ling Yueyuan didn't mean to say any more, and after saying "oh", he didn't ask much, but he just watched his face go from blushing to solemn to relaxed, until the last snickering but unconscious, a moment of kung fu changed faster than a marquee, I really don't know what this monkey is thinking.

Tut. Idiot. Ouyang Xiaoling frowned lightly, the corners of his mouth twitched, turned his head and continued walking.

……

＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝

"Someone in the back has been staring, is it a dark whistle?"

When he had just passed a large locust tree, Ouyang Xiaoling sensitively sensed that someone was staring at him under the shade of the tree. No matter how curious ordinary passers-by are, they just take a look or two, but now even after walking for a while, she still can't shake off the gaze nailed behind her, is she an enemy hiding in the shadows!?

So, she became vigilant, and immediately prompted Ling Yueyuan beside her, and at the same time, she didn't forget to glance behind her from the corner of her eye.

When Ling Yueyuan heard this, he turned around with a big grin, and looked at the figure under the big locust tree behind him with wide eyes

Looking at it from a distance, the guy in the wide robe was dressed like a singing opera, shaking the folding fan and taking a few steps as if to catch up, but a pair of Ling Yueyuan's eyes retreated to the shade of the tree in a few steps, and after a few glances, he turned his head to look away, and after a while, he looked back again, and Shaoqing turned his head away again...... After repeating it several times, under Ling Yueyuan's persistent gaze, he finally turned around completely and hid in the shadow of the tree, like a turtle with its neck retracted into the shell of a turtle.

…… Useless guy. Ling Yueyuan, who was obviously well-informed, snorted, and quickly judged the identity of the turtle, and turned to the oversensitive Ouyang Xiaoling and said, "It's not like a secret whistle, but like someone who wants to talk." ”

"Pick-up?" Ouyang Xiaoling was so vigilant at this time that he pressed his hands on the hilt of the butterfly wing knife tied to both sides of his belt, and when he heard this, he was stunned.

"And it's a person who has a heart but doesn't have the courage to come over and talk to him." Ling Yueyuan smiled disdainfully, and Hao walked forward nonchalantly.

"Uh......" The skeptical Ouyang Xiaoling tried to walk away a few steps, and after a while, he left the big locust tree out of sight, but he really didn't feel any signs of anyone following him.

"It turned out to be really just flies." The experience of the past few days has already made me nervous, and this unknown fly has flown over to add to the blockage! Ouyang Xiaoling, who came to his senses, said fiercely as he walked: "Count it lucky, it's annoying that it didn't fly over, otherwise this girl would have slapped it to death on the tree!" ”

She didn't seem to be in a good mood, and her face was full of irritability, like a powder keg that could explode at any moment.

But at this time, Ling Yueyuan came over and pulled the tiger's whiskers: "Don't worry, we are all dirty now, who will approach." Even flies will pick targets, and if you want to be annoyed, you will also be annoyed by vanilla Yahua, right? ”

Ouyang Xiaoling almost exploded when he heard it. When he was about to have an attack, he thought about it, but subconsciously raised his hand to brush his cheek, and had the impression that he had taken out a handkerchief and wiped his face today, and he should have wiped the stains of last night; But when I looked down at my clothes, the originally bright gauze was now as if it had been soaked in muddy water and then dried, wrinkled like a salted fish, and it was really embarrassing to walk on my body like this...... It's no wonder that those curious passers-by look at it with a different meaning than before!

Annoyed and embarrassed, she secretly observed Ling Yueyuan's expression slightly, but saw that the other party did not smile at all, as if he really had no intention of making fun of herself, but as soon as he said it, it sounded very strange, and it was clear that there was still some meaning aimed at herself, it was impossible that he was laughing at himself!

So, Ouyang Xiaoling, who could barely suppress his anger, scanned Ling Yueyuan's whole body again, and raised his eyebrows in disgust: "No matter how dirty it is, it's not as dirty as you...... You haven't changed your clothes in a few days? The smell is half a mile away! ”

"I was forced by the situation...... You think I want to! And, are you better than me? Ling Yueyuan, who was stabbed in the underbelly, fought back with a red face: "Haven't you changed your clothes for a few days...... Look at the dirty way you look now, if you want to walk with a hemp bag, you are just a standard garbage woman! ”

"If I really have a hemp bag in my hand, I'll first pack up your big garbage, and then dig a pit and bury it!" Ouyang Xiaoling glared at Ling Yueyuan viciously: "I've been spinning in the barren mountains and mountains for the past few days, what can I do!" I'll go change into a new set of clothes in a while, and dress up so that you can see the difference between a human and a monkey! ”

"Okay!" Ling Yueyuan sneered disdainfully: "Then let me see and understand!" See what is the difference between a pig that walks on four legs and a pig that stands upright on two legs and is clothed......"

"I'm not in a good mood right now, if you want to talk nonsense again, be careful that my tongue is cut off by me! Besides, I'm afraid that if I dress up too much, I will arouse the evil intentions of a certain wild monkey from the mountains......! Ouyang Xiaoling, who was about to be burned out of her mind by anger, pressed her hands on the hilt of the knife again, but she was a little unscrupulous under her anger, and she almost shook out the incident in the main peak of Qimu Peak yesterday morning, but fortunately stopped it in time.

"You can dress up however you want." Ling Yueyuan's tone softened somewhat, and when he heard the meaning of Ouyang Xiaoling's words, he was indeed a little embarrassed; The second looked at the other party with a violent look, and was really afraid that she would suddenly swing a knife and slash. After subduing, he added another sentence: "...... I don't have much interest in women. ”

Ouyang Xiaoling's anger was instantly extinguished by an inexplicable cold air. She looked at Ling Yueyuan with her eyes open, and after confirming that the other party was not joking, she remembered that when she was still at the Qingyuan Fulai Inn, she had heard Ouyang Xiaoyi tell her about Ling Yueyuan's strangeness...... But why does he have a good relationship with Xinyin...... Thinking about his behavior in the mountains in the past few days, there seems to be some contradictions......

Was he joking? Or is he really that, what, what...... Ouyang Xiaoling, whose body was shaken by a vicious chill, decided not to think about it anymore, just as if he had never heard this sentence......

Well, it's important to hurry, it's important to hurry......

……

Zhenxi commercial area.

Ouyang Xiaoling, who was walking along the long street, quickly swept his eyes over the shops on both sides of the street, but he kept going straight all the way.

Seeing that she had already passed by a few tailor shops, Ling Yueyuan suddenly became strange, and asked Ouyang Xiaoling puzzled: "Aren't you going to buy clothes?" Why don't you go in and have a look. ”

But Ouyang Xiaoling just shook his head absentmindedly, and continued to move forward while browsing the nearby shops.

But this Wuhua Town is just a small town after all, after walking for a while, the merchants on both sides of the street are becoming more and more scarce, watching Ouyang Xiaoling walk all the way through the cloth village, restaurants, and tea shops, Ling Yueyuan really couldn't think of what store she was looking for, so she asked curiously: "What do you want to go there?" If you go any further, you won't see any storefronts. ”

"Hmm......" Ouyang Xiaoling seemed a little disappointed, but only vaguely said: "This town seems to be ...... There's no place to exchange it for cash. ”

"Oh, the pawnshop!" Ordinary people would react first to Qian Zhuang, but Ling Yueyuan's first thought was a pawnshop. As soon as he saw Ouyang Xiaoling's embarrassed appearance again, he immediately figured out why she didn't go into other stores that cost money, and then he was happy alone: "It turns out that you are also short of money to spend!" ”

"......" Ouyang Xiaoling, who was dumbfounded, suddenly blushed. She's really just looking for a pawnshop. Originally, she just thought that there might be a pawnshop or something like a store near the money village, but after she found that store, she casually found an excuse to open Ling Yueyuan first, and then secretly went in to solve the financial problem.

Originally, she was so downtrodden that she was so embarrassed that she wanted to enter the pawnshop that she had only heard of, but she was still beaten crookedly by the monkey and broke her thoughts...... Ouyang Xiaoling, who was so embarrassed, could only defend helplessly and vainly at this moment: "It's not!" It's just that I don't have enough change, and I'm afraid that the journey will be inconvenient......"

"Everything. Anyway, if you ask someone, will you know if there is a pawnshop here? Ling Yueyuan couldn't think of and wouldn't understand Ouyang Xiaoling's thoughts, but he also happened to have this need, so he aimed at a passer-by who happened to pass by and asked loudly: "Auntie, is there a pawnshop in this town!" ”

This rather loud voice attracted a few stares from other passers-by, causing Ouyang Xiaoling's face to turn even redder, and he couldn't help but glared at Ling Yueyuan, who didn't care about it, in shame.

The aunt's eyes swept over the grinning Ling Yueyuan and the embarrassed Ouyang Xiaoling a few times, and reported the name and address of the Fuxiang pawnshop in the town in a few moments, but she didn't know what gossip plot was turning in her mind, and at the end she added: "If you can't go to that kind of place, don't you go...... I'm so short of money at such a young age. Tut-tut......"

Ouyang Xiaoling was so uncomfortable by the aunt's questioning and sympathetic eyes, and after urging Ling Yueyuan to leave quickly, he hurriedly lowered his head and walked away first.

If it weren't for the fact that Xiaoyi and her sister kept most of the funds along the way, how could she have fallen into such a situation? Ouyang Xiaoling sighed and secretly made up his mind: next time, he would definitely prepare more cash and put it on his body...... Well, it's not safe even if it's in a package, and it's all lost as soon as it's lost......
