Chapter 34: Clues
At that time, Wuhua Town East Street. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The warm sunlight poured into the long streets and alleys, the light breeze gently swept through the green branches and green leaves, and the streets were as still as water, and only the rustling of branches and leaves and the crisp sound of horses' hooves echoed in the still streets.
But for Lin Xinyin, there seems to be a murderous motive hidden under this quiet surface. As she dragged her feet, her vision was still blurry: it seemed that the scenery in front of her was beating endlessly; The body that is becoming soft is like ice cubes that are about to melt in the sun, as if it will melt into water and fall on this long street after another moment.
But she could only pull herself together and insist on walking to the figure she had just seen.
Fortunately, the man had been standing and had not moved half a step, as if waiting for her arrival.
Lin Xinyin walked closer, barely opened her eyelids and took a closer look, only to see that it was a woman snuggled at the door of the house.
The woman was brightly dressed, with heavy makeup and drooping eyebrows; The crow's feet around the eyes, although buried under layers of rouge powder, still show the tail; The style is still a little small, but the years have passed away. She looked at Lin Xinyin, who was approaching, her eyes that were like dead fish suddenly jumped actively, and even her head swayed up and down, just with this movement, the fat powder on her face fell to the ground little by little, as if it was snowing in early spring.
"Auntie, hello ......" Lin Xinyin said lightly, but at this time, her eyes were foggy, her face was slightly red, and she even became a little incoherent in her speech, but she didn't know it.
"Well, I'm looking for a teenager, oh, he's going to be taller than me...... Well, pretty handsome...... Well, the clothes may be a little torn, oh, or not...... Well, the point is to be handsome...... I don't know if you've ever seen a man like this......? Lin Xinyin was confused and remembered that Ling Yueyuan might have changed her clothes, but she didn't know why her expression was so confused, so that the Qianxia on her face also deepened a little.
Looking for a man? The woman with heavy makeup directly condensed Lin Xinyin's entire unclear words into four keywords, and a few points of fat powder and a hint of surprise popped up on the corners of her raised eyebrows, and she looked at the girl leading the horse carefully.
But seeing that this girl was dressed plainly, and a few drops of crimson flew up on her cheeks without powder, like the morning glow reflecting the snow, as bright as spring; The beautiful eyes flow with a tactful and confused expression, as if there is spring under the deep lake; The lips pursed and opened, and the wisps of spring breeze came out one after another, and a few bundles of black silk in front of the forehead floated up, brushed over Lian Juan's long eyebrows, and scattered between the pink cheeks, adding a bit of seductive charm.
Belch.
Dare to love this little girl is an aphrodisiac, and she wants to find a man in broad daylight?
The woman with heavy makeup thought for a moment and suddenly realized. So, as if she understood something, the corners of her mouth turned up, the corners of her eyebrows flew, and she smiled at Lin Xinyin as if a peach blossom was blooming: "I've seen it, I've seen ...... it."
"Seen?" Lin Xinyin, who didn't hold out any hope, heard this, and her heart jumped in surprise; All the eagerness, anticipation, nervousness, and urgency all passed through her eyes, turning into a trickle of heat and unreservedly rushing to the woman with heavy makeup: "There, there?!" ”
It's just that this urgent hot current has completely changed into another meaning after being received by the woman with heavy makeup, she seems to see Lin Xinyin, who is dizzy and flushed, her eyes are full of uncontrollable spring water, and she can't help but secretly sneer in her heart, and gently took the other party's right wrist and slowly pulled it into the door: "Yo, it's not convenient to talk here, it's better to go into the house and talk in detail......"
As soon as he pressed Lin Xinyin's wrist, he felt the unusual feeling of heat again.
Yo. This little doll is in heat...... The woman with heavy makeup took half a step back and smiled: "Sister, I've seen many men, and there is always one that my sister wants......
"Huh......?" Looking at the creepy smile of the woman with heavy makeup, Lin Xinyin's body trembled, and she felt that something was wrong, but at the moment, she was dizzy and swelling before she had time to think, and she was pulled away by the other party unnaturally, but her left hand was still holding Xiao Huang's reins: "Hey...... My horse ......"
"It's okay, pull it into the yard." The woman with heavy makeup smiled and pulled Lin Xinyin over the threshold.
"Ah......" Lin Xinyin didn't know what was wrong with her, she only felt that her body was soft and hot, but her head was dizzy, and her steps were unsteady and she almost tripped over the red threshold. She dragged Xiao Huang through the door of the house with just the right width, and after stepping into the front yard, she looked at the woman with heavy makeup who was sneering all the way, and her red lips that had regained color moved and moved, but she didn't know what to call her: "Uh, that ......"
"Just call me Sister Wang." The woman with heavy makeup continued to sprinkle the fat powder on her face without hesitation, and at the same time turned her head to summon a woman with a basin standing in the left corner of the courtyard: "Xiaofang, come and help tie the horse." ”
"Hey." The woman called Xiaofang put the basin on her waist with one hand, yawned and approached, looking like she hadn't woken up, only after seeing Lin Xinyin's appearance, she had a trace of spirit: "Yo, handsome sister, new here?" ”
"Go ahead, don't scare people." Sister Wang waved away the plain-faced, ghost-like Xiao Fang, and put on a smiling face and took Lin Xinyin's slender hand: "Come on, sister, let's go and sit in the front room." ”
"......" Lin Xinyin looked at Xiao Fang, who took the little yellow reins and walked away, and looked at Sister Wang, who seemed to never finish the fat powder on her face and was almost old enough to be her mother, and she really didn't know how to call them for a while. At this moment, she was in a daze, like a lost lamb, leading Sister Wang all the way to the main room in front of the inner court.
It's just that in the moment when she walked through the courtyard, she didn't forget to look around: in addition to the slightly larger main house in front, there are many small rooms around the courtyard, how many people live in this small house, is this a hostel is not ......?
Before thinking about it, Lin Xinyin was pulled into the main room by Sister Wang and sat on a wooden round pier imitation rattan. In the early spring of March, it was still cold, and the woolen cushions on the pier had not yet been removed, and this sitting, there was a warmth that swam all over her body in an instant, making her feel particularly soft and tired, and almost wanted to lie down on the round table in front of her.
There is also a large screen in the center of this room, and through the tulle, you can see the outline of a looming shelf bed, and the dizzy Lin Xinyin can't help but think wildly, if she is directly pulled to the bed by Sister Wang, maybe she will really fall asleep in the next moment.
But she couldn't sleep at this moment. She found that Sister Wang, who was sitting opposite, was always looking at her with a smile, could there be something strange on her face?
So, she felt that her ears had warmed up somehow. She inadvertently raised her hand to wipe her earlobe, but the slightest touch of her finger seemed to ignite a flame, causing an even stronger sensation of heat, spreading to the point that even her cheeks were a little hot.
She didn't know that her face now looked like a tempting red apple that made people want to bite her.
"That ......" was stared at by Sister Wang for a long time, Lin Xinyin always felt a little hairy in her heart, so she brought up the previous question again: "The person I want to find ......"
"Oh, you're in such a hurry to find a man? Hey! Sister Wang let out a shrill laugh, stood up, and slowly walked to Lin Xinyin's side, but her eyes were always on her.
"No, it's not a man......" Lin Xinyin, who was stimulated by the laughter and was a little sober, hurriedly corrected: "It's the young man who is right......"
"Good, good. I want a boy. I still want a handsome man, right? Sister Wang has been laughing for a long time, but her expression is not stiff, like a veteran who has been in the market for a long time. She had put her hands on Lin Xinyin's shoulders and gently wanted to help her up: "Come, stand up and let my sister take a look at ...... again"
"What, what......" Lin Xinyin finally noticed that the conversation between the chicken and the duck was very wrong, but she still stood up according to Sister Wang's gesture in a dizziness. But the other party's hands did not leave, on the contrary, they slid along her shoulders all the way to the back waist, and suddenly there was a cold like a water snake entangled throughout her body, and she was about to struggle away, but unexpectedly, Sister Wang's hands were faster, and suddenly pressed towards her lower waist!
"Ahh The feeling of electric shock finally woke up the nerves, Lin Xinyin's eyes were wide and jumped to the side, but she accidentally knocked over the round pier beside her, but fortunately she was able to stand still. She looked at Sister Wang in horror, but she couldn't speak for a while, just shouted "You, you, you ......" for a while, and only after she was sober did she know how to ask: "What is this place?!" ”
"What an interesting reaction, hehe!" Sister Wang, who seemed to have an endless aftertaste, looked at Lin Xinyin with interest, and said slowly: "This is naturally a place for men to be happy. Isn't my sister looking for a man? There are all kinds of men here, and there is an endless stream of them! Anyway, the sisters here are generally looking for rich men, but my sister is looking for young handsome men, hey! Seeing my sister looking like a rippling spring, but unexpectedly she was still a chick? It's a lot of fun......"
"No, it's not ......" Lin Xinyin finally realized what kind of place this was, and took a step back with a bitter face: "It's not these men I'm looking for...... I'm looking for someone I know......"
"It's not these men, but it's those men?" Sister Wang Meng further blocked Lin Xinyin's retreat: "Besides, what's the matter if you know you or not?" My sister stays here for a few more days, and maybe she can meet the man you know! Even if you can't see each other, you can meet a better man! Maybe after you see a dozen handsome young men in the future, you will kick your old good-looking man! ”
"No...... He won't come here......" Lin Xinyin blushed, and hurriedly turned around and broke through to the left.
"Hey, my sister's words are wrong." Sister Wang's soldiers came to block, the water came to cover the earth, and blocked Lin Xinyin's footsteps to the left: "If you are a man, you will be greedy, you will want to steal, and if you want to steal, you will come here, that is the case, my sister will simply stay here for a year and a half, and there will always be the day when your lover comes!" ”
"No, he's not my lover......" Lin Xinyin's face was so red that it was almost dripping blood, her body retreated sharply, and she ran around the round table to the other side of the door: "You're mistaken!" ”
"Not a lover? That's even better! I'll tell you! Men are unreliable! It's a lang during the day, and a wolf at night! Before the end of the moon, people are old and yellow, and the empty room is guarded! My sister is so beautiful and fragrant, how can she waste her good youth on a single stinky skin? As the saying goes, youth is valuable, gold and silver are unlimited, and money is the hard currency that unblocks the yang and the underworld! seems to have such a good condition for my sister, and she was wronged in a cloth skirt, which is really a waste of beautiful jade! Sister Wang also ran with the round table, her eyes did not forget to inspect Lin Xinyin's figure, and at the same time there was a strange smile: "Hmm! I pinched it just now, it's good, it's warped! The feel is first-class, it's really too much more, too little less, hey! The placket is very tight, and it looks very good! But! Your tongue isn't long enough! Come, let my sister take a closer look and ......! ”
Lin Xinyin almost vomited blood when she heard it. If the other party is a lewd man, maybe she has summoned Ye Mei's sword and stabbed him to the ground. But then there was a wave of dizziness that came at an untimely time, forcing her to stagger and almost unsteady on her feet, and she could only reply in a daze: "No, I don't need money......"
In fact, she is really in need of money now. It's just that as soon as she stumbled like this, the placket of her clothes was grabbed by Sister Wang, who was forced up.
"Don't need money? Who would be afraid of having more money in the world? Sister Wang was surprised, stared at Lin Xinyin like a monster for a moment, and continued to move with affection, knowing that it was reasonable: "This person opens his eyes every day, food, clothing, housing, tea, rice, oil, salt and vinegar, that doesn't need money?" Look at the coolies outside, moving goods quickly and breaking their waists, and only making a few dollars a day? Like this kind of beauty difference that can make money lying down, men can't do it if they want to! Besides! People always have to sleep, but this sleep is a waste of time, but if you are here, you can still make money while sleeping, how easy is it? How comfortable! Moreover, a pure and charming beauty like my sister will definitely become famous as soon as she debuts, and she will soon be famous in Guangdong, and even in Kyushu, everyone knows it, and then it will not be a high-ranking official and nobleman, maybe she can marry into a wealthy family, rich and noble for life, wow, wow......"
The more Sister Wang talked, the more excited she became, and the more she talked, the more outrageous it became, as if she had started a daydream, delusionally thinking that the Lichun Courtyard with Lin Xinyin would change from a small courtyard to a large courtyard, and then annex the nearby people, and build a five-storey majestic green building...... Suddenly she couldn't help but burst into laughter, laughing so much that rouge flew everywhere on her face.
Lin Xinyin was almost dizzy from the oncoming Lie Fen, and wanted to really get a place where everyone knows about the fame all over Kyushu, so it's worth it?! Seeing that the old bustard was holding on to his front and refused to let go, as if he was afraid of losing the God-given treasure, since it was useless to talk too much, there was no need to talk nonsense; So she immediately used the pupil technique, raised her hands and slapped away the claws that were clutching her, and hurriedly and panicked out of the threshold of the main room.
It's just that in a panic, she only cared about running away, but she didn't notice that the front placket had been torn open by Sister Wang. Under the violent movement, a small mass of things in his arms was unfortunately shaken out of his body, and fell under the potted plant in front of the main house, and instantly quietly disappeared into the shadow of a green leaf.
……
After a long while, Sister Wang, who had smiled and squinted, came back to her senses, only to realize that her hands were only grasping the air, as if what she had just grabbed was just a dream. But there was a faint pain on the back of Honghong's hand, and after she looked around, she was surprised to see that Lin Xinyin had run to the door at some point.
So, Sister Wang, who was eager to catch her dream, immediately caught up, and didn't think about why the other party moved so quickly, just thinking about not letting the cooked duck fly away, and at the same time didn't forget to shout loudly and in vain: "Sister...... Think about it again~ This line of work is very rich~! ”
Listening to the call from behind, Lin Xinyin just ran faster, jumped over the threshold with a flying body, and returned to the street with neat movements. It's just that after resting a little, my heart beats a lot faster, the blush on my face is still lingering, and my heavy head is illuminated by the sunlight in the sky, and I don't wake up and faint.
Under this dizziness, Lin Xinyin suddenly realized that another black shadow was approaching!
However, she didn't have time to react, and she couldn't even lift up the strength to see the person who came, so she felt a heavy blow to the back of her neck, and suddenly she couldn't support it anymore, and her whole body was pushed forward by the brute force behind her, and she fell to the ground softly.
She felt more dizzy, the pain in her brain came in waves, and her chest was panting together, but she no longer had the strength to get up.
It's just that even if I can get up, I'm afraid it's just one more attack. Lin Xinyin lay down on the street like this, and the feeling of heat flowed all over her body, but she couldn't tell whether the heat came from the road surface that had been sprinkled by the sun for half a day, or whether it was generated by her own body.
But once again, she realized that the light in the sky was once again swallowed up by darkness...... At this time, four dark shadows were already approaching him.
At the same time, a sound echoed in my ears.
"Tsk...... It's still Brother Leopard's interests, and he restrained this chick as soon as he made a move. ”
“…… This little lady is obviously as weak as a cat, and she will fall down when she knocks it, why are you three big men still bitten by her and bruised? ”
"Careless...... I don't know how she made a move, but suddenly she made a short sword, and it was as fast as a ghost...... Brother Leopard, it's better to be careful, don't get too close to ......"
"So amazing? That's a lot of fun......"
……
When Wang Laobuar was still in the inner courtyard, he saw Lin Xinyin disappear as soon as he flashed out of the gate, and suddenly he was so anxious that he hurried to the gate as if he had lost his heart and liver and flew his dream, and looked out, but suddenly saw that although her dream was lying on the ground, there were four more men next to her. Three of the men were bandaged in different parts of their bodies, as if they were injured; When the other heard the noise, he turned around and took a look at her.
After seeing the face of the only man who was not injured, Wang Laobuar was stunned. She knew this person named Zhao Bao, and she had heard rumors about him as a bandit and horse thief...... Now the wicked man stood in front of the gate and stared at her coldly, staring at her so that her hair stood on end and her heart was pounding.
Looking at Lin Xinyin, who was slumped to the ground and unconscious, and then looking at the four fierce men around him, Wang Laobustard had roughly guessed something. It's just that when she was still hesitating to speak, Zhao Bao, who was standing in front of her, had already spoken coldly.
"Old bustard, close the door."
This bland tone made Wang Laobuar feel like a chill. She opened her mouth to say something, but when she thought about it, what could she say and do now...... Just a slight pause, and another vicious look shot at the other party, forcing her to dare not hesitate for a moment, so she could only slowly retreat inside, slowly closing the door.
As soon as the two doors closed, a heavy voice came like a death knell, cutting off both Wang Laobustard's dream and Lin Xinyin's hope.
……
The Long Street is once again quiet.
There is no one else. Zhao Bao turned to look at Lin Xinyin, who had no power to resist, and a lewd smile squeezed out of his hideous face: "This little girl is panting so much, is she in heat to seduce a man?" ”
"Hey, hey!" "Haha......" The other three men next to him followed a few steps closer, and began to tease uncleanly.
"The face is red, the clothes are messy, it is obvious that he has just come out of the Lichun Courtyard after running errands......"
"She looks pretty innocent, but she's a slut!"
"I want a man so much, my brother will have fun with you later, hehe!"
"But be careful of this kitten's short sword, I don't know where it is hidden......"
"Take off your clothes and search slowly, don't you know? Ha ha! ”
……
Lin Xinyin, who was in a daze, was steady and had the last shred of reason, and she still listened to those foul words, and she was extremely ashamed and angry, and she secretly gritted her teeth: these bandits would not think of where her Ye Mei sword was hidden, if their dirty hands dared to touch them, this time she would definitely not hesitate to swing her sword and cut their throats!
After a while, some more conversations came.
"By the way, I heard that there is a kid next to her, but she won't see anyone."
"Don't worry about that, this little girl is worth a lot...... If it's really that fierce, just pick off her hamstrings. ”
"Well, lest she bite again...... Ha ha! ”
Lin Xinyin heard that they had no idea about Ah Cai at first, and her heart was relieved at first; But when he heard the latter words, he immediately felt a chill in his heart, and his whole body was full of cold, and he subconsciously moved the slender fingers of his right hand.
It's just that her hands are so weak, as if they are frozen, and they can't even be clenched into fists.
Can she still hold the Ye Mei Sword......?
……
====================
Lin Xinyin, who was lying on the ground, suddenly felt that she was not only dizzy, her vision was blurred, but there was also a buzzing tinnitus in her ears, and the surrounding sounds became smaller and smaller, as if she had been isolated in a silent world.
But she could still feel the dark shadow that was approaching, the light that was being swallowed up little by little, and the chill that gradually spread through her body. She tried to calm down, but fear and despair swelled wildly.
After a few moments, the shadow suddenly stopped moving.
There was a cacophony of voices in her ears, as if she were talking, but she couldn't make out what it was.
Are you discussing what to do with yourself? Lin Xinyin nervously urged her strength, she didn't want to accept her fate, but her hands at this time didn't seem to belong to her.
After a while, a scream was heard in the calm streets.
Then, one more, two ...... It ripples like a lake that has been knocked open by stones.
After a loud noise and noise, the street was quiet again.
……
Lin Xinyin, who was almost desperate, felt as if a gust of wind had turned her over, and then, her upper body floated lightly off the ground, and after a while, it seemed to be leaning on a cloud, and she was very comfortable steadily.
It can't be that you have drifted to heaven!? Lin Xinyin, who was in a daze, was faintly startled, but her spirit was not yet fully awake, and her eyes seemed to be confused, and she couldn't tell where she was.
However, her left hand was still in front of her waist, and her right hand was staggering down, and her fingers slid over a hard object, and a warm heat came up, and the touch seemed to cross the bluestone road, as if she was not far from the ground.
After a while, a jasmine-like smell suddenly brushed his nose, and the unusual heat on his body gradually weakened a little.
Then, there was a faint fragrance wafting by, taking away the long-ending dizziness; The silent world gradually has a long-lost voice.
In the end, it was a more pungent smell that stabbed her nose and shook her head slightly, but the strength that had passed away finally returned, and even the eyelids became no longer heavy.
Lin Xinyin, who opened her eyes, saw a face that gradually became clearer.
Angel? There was still a trace of dizziness left, and she was still thinking stupidly at first, but when she gradually sobered up, she was suddenly startled again!
Wrong! It was clearly a man's face...... He doesn't have a halo on his head! Could it be that they are also gangsters!
As a result, Lin Xinyin's eyes changed color without thinking!
"Heart's Eye, Breathing—!"
At the same time, her right hand was already holding the long-lost Ye Mei Sword, and it swept towards the neck of the man in front of her like a wind!
At this close distance, the half-moon-shaped silver light that had cut through the air and whistled with what was supposed to kill the future with one blow came to an abrupt halt a few inches away from the target.
Lin Xinyin's eyes widened in surprise. Her right wrist had been gently blocked by the left palm of the man in front of her, and the sword momentum that was bound to be won was actually braked violently, unable to move.
"Girl, I'm not a bad person." The man actually smiled with a relaxed face, as if Lin Xinyin's sword attack just now was just playful.
"Ah......" Lin Xinyin finally saw the person who came...... Isn't that the handsome man I saw in Li Youji in the morning...... What's it called? Belch......
After a while, the other party's left hand that was holding his wrist slowly retracted. Lin Xinyin breathed a sigh of relief and put down her right hand holding the sword, but then realized that she was actually supported by the half-squatting man with one hand and shoulders to lift her upper body, and the distance between herself and him was as close as if she was lying in his arms...... Frightened, she quickly turned to the side and rolled away like a panicked kitten.
After jumping out of a distance, Lin Xinyin was shocked to find that her front was scattered, and her face was suddenly embarrassed, she turned her back and sorted out her clothes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm herself down before turning around and thanking her. It's just that her heartbeat is still a little fast at this time: "Thank you...... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do it just now, are you okay? You, well, you ......".
But she forgot what the man's name was. It seems that she had heard the other party report her name from a distance in Li Youji before, but she walked too fast and didn't notice it at all.
"It's fine. Oh yes. Xiaosheng's surname is Liu, and his name is Qianli. I don't know what to call the girl? Liu Qianli seemed to have seen Lin Xinyin's embarrassment, so she simply opened her mouth first and then introduced herself again, so as to avoid the embarrassment of asking her name again.
"My surname is Lin, and my name is Xinyin." The blush on Lin Xinyin's face faded a little, but there was still a lot of confusion in her eyes when she looked at Liu Qianli, she had too many questions to ask, but she didn't know how to say for a while: "Just now, I, you ......"
She looked around, and at this time, there were only two people left on the long street, herself and Liu Qianli.
"Miss Lin was in danger just now, not only was she given drugs, hallucinants, and aphrodisiacs...... Not to mention the unconscious, he was besieged by four vicious wolves...... Fortunately, Qianli happened to pass by here and beat away this group of things, otherwise the consequences would be really unimaginable. Liu Qianli stood up and slowly explained the reason for the incident just now.
Aphrodisiac?! Lin Xinyin's lips closed together, and she was speechless for a while: There is this thing in those poisonous smokes! I don't know what I thought, her face gradually turned red, she looked at Liu Qianli with panicked eyes, but her voice became less and less: "Where, where, I, just ...... Did you ...... anything strange? ”
"Miss Lin's poisoning is not deep, and ordinary antidotes can also work, so don't worry." Speaking of this, Liu Qianli turned to laugh and tease: "However, if I hadn't reacted a little faster, the lightning-like sword when Miss Lin was half-dizzy and half-awake just now almost made Qianli a headless soul." ”
"I'm so sorry...... Luckily, you reacted quickly and you blocked the sword. Lin Xinyin was apologetic, but the doubts in her heart were constantly amplifying.
"Hehe, it's okay, it's just a joke, Miss Lin doesn't need to take it to heart." Liu Qianli smiled, as if he didn't want to discuss the anomalous incident just now.
And this is a doubt that Lin Xinyin has been unable to express. Since coming to this world, it seems that her or Ling Yueyuan's pupil technique has only failed against a few people. He and Xiaoyuan did not mention each other invalidly, among all the outsiders they met, Ye Youyou was the first; Yu Jianwen is the second; And this Liu Qianli is the third.
Why is that? Lin Xinyin couldn't figure it out. Or is this Liu Qianli's reaction really fast to the point of being different from ordinary people?
However, this is also possible, after all, the essence of the heart eye is just to speed yourself up. Only Ling Yueyuan's pupil technique can test whether the other party is really immune...... Maybe it's normal for the real martial arts masters here to have an extraordinary reaction speed.
Lin Xinyin barely found a reason that was enough to convince herself, so she didn't think about it anymore, and then heard Liu Qianli's inquiry again.
"Yes, why is Miss Lin alone now? Don't you have a child with you in the morning? Miss Lin seems to be being targeted by the wicked, and if she acts alone, it is quite dangerous. ”
"Oh, the man had something urgent to do, and we parted. Fortunately, the gang of bandits didn't target him. Lin Xinyin was still thinking about Ah Cai's safety at this time, but after being relieved, she remembered that she didn't seem to be alone, and there was a horse...... Huang is still trapped somewhere!
"Ah, by the way, my horse ......" Lin Xinyin, who was rejuvenated, exclaimed, turned her head to look at the door of the house behind her, which had been tightly closed, and looked up again, her face suddenly turned red, and she couldn't say the second half of the sentence anymore.
Shi Cai was confused and didn't notice what was written on the top of the door, but now he was in good spirits, so he clearly saw a plaque hanging generously under the eaves, and the three words "Lichun Yuan" were written very fluttering, even though his body was half hidden under the eaves, but he could still see clearly under the bright sunshine.
Why didn't you see it just now? Why? Why......
She asked herself a hundred thousand whys in her mind, and she asked herself in a daze, and at this moment, Liu Qianli added one more reason to her at no time.
"Your horse...... Inside? Why......? ”
Lin Xinyin turned her head mechanically, followed the sound, and looked at Liu Qianli who was also staring at the plaque under the eaves in a daze, and then turned to look at herself in a daze. After a moment, the doubt in his eyes gradually faded, and he didn't know what he had figured out, so he quietly snickered.
Lin Xinyin, who was upset by the continuous chuckle, spread the red glow on her cheeks to the root of her ears. Her lips fluttered a few times, but she couldn't say a word; She wanted to get up and go to rescue Xiao Huang, but her legs stuck to the ground as if they were attracted by a magnet; She looked at each other for a moment and then fell into defeat, don't look at the mantis, lowered her head and pondered that it would be good to organize a speech quickly, but her head was full of paste at this time.
"Ahem." Liu Qianli finally stopped chuckling and asked tentatively, "I'm going to help you take that horse out?" ”
Lin Xinyin's willow eyebrows moved, raised her chin, nodded with a red face, still speechless, but her hands unconsciously pinched the corners of her clothes.
……
So, Liu Qianli stepped forward, walked up the steps, walked to the door, and bent his right index finger to gently knock on the closed door.
There was a rhythmic knock on the door, but there was no movement at the door.
There was only a faint sound behind the door, which reached Liu Qianli's ears through the crack in the door.
There is clearly a ...... behind the door It seems that he has been eavesdropping on something, but this time he seems to be scared away by the knock on the door. Liu Qianli frowned, spread out his palm and tried to push the door, but the door was blocked when it moved back a little, and it seemed that there was a bolt behind the door.
After judging that the people who went out had run away, Liu Qianli secretly lifted his strength, stretched out two fingers and slowly crossed the two tracks horizontally on the door. In an instant, there was a "pop" sound behind the door, but the main door was still not moving.
After a while, Liu Qianli gently pushed with both hands, and there was no longer any resistance. The two main doors retreated to both sides, and the crossbar behind the latched door was broken into several pieces like rotten wood, and fell to the ground, helplessly watching the uninvited man cross his mutilated body and force his way in.
"Wow!" "Ahh As Liu Qianli's figure flashed into the courtyard, there were bursts of exclamations out of the door in an instant, and it seemed that there was more than one person hiding behind the door just now.
"Up......roar" Then, there was a very neat exclamation, as if admiring some famous flowers and trees.
"......" is just less than half a cup of tea, but there is no sound.
After a while, Liu Qianli took Xiao Huang and walked leisurely out of the main gate of Lichun Courtyard, covering the gate before stepping to Lin Xinyin's side and putting down the reins.
……
"They ......" Lin Xinyin poked her head curiously, but she didn't want to go closer to the back of the door to take a closer look.
"Just let them all sleep for a while. It's not good to lie down for too long, after all, the door can't be closed. After Liu Qianli explained, he looked at Lin Xinyin with a smile, and added very understandingly: "If Miss Lin doesn't want to see them, then let's leave now, they will wake up in a moment." ”
Lin Xinyin silently took Xiao Huang's reins, and looked at Liu Qianli accidentally, but she clearly saw the playful meaning in the other party's eyes, and was thinking about not knowing how to explain it, when she heard the other party emphasize again quite understandingly.
"I'm not a boring person who likes to ask long and short questions, Miss Lin doesn't have to think about it. If I don't want to say it, I won't ask ......."
…… You're the one who thinks about it, right? Lin Xinyin secretly looked at Liu Qianli, who was chuckling incessantly, again, as if she saw one question mark after another flying above his head, not only sighed lightly, but also took a perfunctory step: "Anyway, it's just a misunderstanding...... You don't have to think about it too much, it's wrong to think too much, thank you. ”
"Heh......" Liu Qianli smiled embarrassedly, and followed Lin Xinyin like a shadow: "Looking at Miss Lin, she looks like a traveler, but she doesn't know where to go next?" Maybe we're on the same page? ”
"Maybe it's Xinyang." Lin Xinyin was faintly frowned by the other party's left sentence and girl's sentence, but the other party was also his own savior, and it was not good to have too many attacks: "There is still ...... Just call me by name, don't be too ......."
"What a coincidence, Miss Xinyin. It just so happens that my next stop is also to Xinyang, and now I have company. I'm also walking alone, with no one to talk to, and I'm going crazy. Liu Qianli smiled, and jumped to Lin Xinyin's side with a jump.
“…… I might also go to Wolpo. Besides, just call me by name......" Lin Xinyin silently took a few steps away from Liu Qianli, thinking that all the way to the east, it was all town after town...... Unless he went west, how could he go any differently...... Clearly is an excuse......
"Okay, Miss Xinyin." Liu Qianli didn't seem to be able to hear the meaning of Lin Xinyin's words, and after answering casually, his long eyebrows waved even more happily: "It's really incredible!" I'm also going to visit an old man in Wolpo! ”
"Maybe I'll have to go to Fuzhou. That, when my name is called, you don't have to add a girl to the end...... Thank you. Lin Xinyin didn't know if this Liu Qianli really didn't understand, or if she liked to play tricks, so she had to explain what she meant.
"Oh, that's a shame. I'm going to go somewhere else later, and I can't go with you Xinyin. Liu Qianli finally changed his words, and his eyebrows lowered with joy, but he didn't know what he was sorry for.
"Oh......" Lin Xinyin was a little happy. It seems that the other party doesn't want to keep up all the way, maybe it's just thinking about it yourself. Since it was a short trip, the man insisted on going together, so he went with him as he liked...... But there's another question: "But I only have one horse." ”
"It's okay, I also have horses, so I'll leave them at the inn in front." Liu Qianliyao pointed to the front of East Street: "...... with the girl in the morning" Well, after saying goodbye to Xinyin, I wanted to go back to the inn to pick up the horse and hurry, but I didn't expect to meet here again, what a coincidence......" He didn't seem to be used to changing his words, but he didn't mention the reason why he was thrown away by Lin Xinyin in the morning, so he said it lightly.
Lin Xinyin only nodded lightly, and continued to move forward along Liu Qianli's direction.
……
====================
Lin Xinyin and Liu Qianli, who were each leading the horses, soon walked to the end of the east side of Wuhua Town.
There are no formal residential shops near the entrance of the town, only a few small stalls that are not tended to float in the breeze. There are few people, debris is pushed around, and there are a few board cars parked randomly on the side of the broken road ahead, as if this is a garbage dump that no one cleans up.
It seems that Ling Yueyuan's whereabouts shouldn't be asked here. Lin Xinyin, who had no idea of this, slowly walked towards the road outside the town that had already come into view.
There was also a strong man walking in front of him. Lin Xinyin thought about it and decided to ask about the approximate time it would take to go to Xinyang, the next town, but unexpectedly, just as she passed a board car on the side of the road, a flirtatious male voice suddenly sounded.
"Yo, beauty!"
Lin Xinyin, who was startled, turned her head to look, only to find that there was still a young man lying on the cart, but his appearance was completely unpleasant.
The man was half-lying on the cart, his clothes dirty, his face dusty, his lips black and his teeth yellow, and his oily cavity slippery; The left hand supports the head, but the index finger of the right hand is stuck in the nostril for a while; While smirking, he took out a lump of something from his nose as if no one was around, brought it to his face, and looked at it with wide eyes and interest, as if he was wondering if there was any treasure buried in it; After a while, the two fingers flicked in a dashing manner, and the black dot flew through a curve in the sunlight, and then fell somewhere.
Seeing that Lin Xinyin frowned, she hurriedly moved two steps away. When the strong man in front of her got closer, she turned to ask about Xinyang.
"Xinyang...... It takes at least three or four days to walk. The strong man saw that Lin Xinyin was still leading the horse, so he added: "However, if you ride a horse like you, you may be able to get there in a day if you are fast." ”
After knowing the answer, Lin Xinyin hurriedly thanked her. The strong man nodded, walked to the side of the cart man, and slapped the man's head with a frown: "Lazy man, the market is very busy now, why don't you go there to find a job to do, and bask in the sun here!" ”
"Go...... I was tired of moving goods yesterday, and I couldn't take a break? I'll lie down for a while and then go. The lazy man really lay down directly on the cart, crossed Erlang's legs and closed his eyes comfortably.
The strong man took a sip and turned to leave: "I'm tired if I do some work!" Child's body, coolie life, has been lying since last night until now! Can you wait for money while lying down? Sooner or later, I'll starve you to death! ”
But the lazy man hummed a little song without care.
……
Lin Xinyin, who was watching from the sidelines, shook her head, turned around and was about to get on the horse, when she suddenly heard Liu Qianli's inquiry.
"By the way, what does Xinyin want to do in Xinyang, Yuepu or even Fuzhou?"
"Find someone ......"
"Looking for someone?"
"Well, it's a very important friend, so I should have gone first, but I don't know where I got there now."
"Let's go first...... Is it horseback riding? ”
"It should be. I think I passed by last night or this morning, but no one in this town seems to have seen it......"
"Oh......"
……
At this moment, another voice sounded behind Lin Xinyin.
"I've seen it."
Lin Xinyin trembled, and hurriedly turned around to take a look, but in addition to herself, Liu Qianli, and the lazy man who was still lying on the board car and digging his nose, there were other people there? She was puzzled and surprised, but she could only hold back one word for a long time: "...... you?" ”
"From last night to this morning, there was only a group of people riding through here, and I have seen it." The lazy man popped out a black dot again, and half-sat up to look at Lin Xinyin.
"So, what do those people on horseback look like? When did it pass by? Probably went there......" Lin Xinyin eagerly asked several questions, but before she could enjoy it, she was stunned when she saw that the other party suddenly stretched out her right hand and spread her palm to herself.
"Money." The lazy man moved his fingers and said with a smile: "Give me a little benefit fee and tell you ......"
"Oh oh......" Lin Xinyin reacted nervously, but as soon as her fingers touched the placket of her clothes, her face suddenly turned red, and she turned her head to look at the package on Xiao Huang's body, and thought about it again, uh...... It's shy in your pocket.
"How much ...... do you want," Lin Xinyin asked in a low voice with a red face. She can't afford more.
"It doesn't take much ......" the lazy man smirked again with bad intentions: "Otherwise, just send a beautiful kiss......
"......" Lin Xinyin, who heard this, was immediately ashamed and angry, and wanted to rush forward and give this lazy man a few slaps. She gritted her teeth, the five fingers of her right hand were slowly clenched, and she was thinking about whether to summon the Ye Mei Sword, and directly pressed it on the person's neck for interrogation, but she was suddenly surprised to realize that two cold lights suddenly shot through!
After two "thuds", two hard objects were inserted into the wheels of the cart. Lin Xinyin looked at it, and it turned out to be two silver coins that had been inserted into half of her body. She looked back in surprise and saw Liu Qianli with a stern face behind her.
"That's enough money, right? Tell me everything you know...... Otherwise, you'll have two more things on your lower body...... It's not that easy to dig out. Liu Qianli's eyes at this moment were like two cold blades, and they stabbed the lazy man in the heart in an instant.
"Okay, okay." The lazy man shrunk his legs, his hands subconsciously protected his lower body, but his eyes were still greedily looking at the silver coin on the wheel, and recalled intermittently: "I remember...... Well, when I was sleeping here this morning, I was awakened by the sound of horses' hooves...... When I opened my eyes, I saw several people riding horses...... But they ran very fast, and after a while they were on the main road from the east side of the town. ”
"Three watches, so early!" Lin Xinyin secretly calculated, sure enough, she left early, so wouldn't she be far behind? After thinking for a while, she asked uneasily, "Are there four people riding four horses?" ”
"Yes...... Well, it should be. The lazy man was perfunctory without thinking, but as soon as he rolled his eyes, he added an uncertain tone.
"Oh...... Is there a ...... of men and women? Lin Xinyin breathed a sigh of relief and asked one more question. She didn't know that her question was more like a reminder to the other party.
"Yes, men's and women's clothes are still relatively recognizable...... the lazy man continued to answer according to Lin Xinyin's meaning, as if he just wanted to send the other party away as soon as possible.
"Hmm...... Is there a man whose clothes are more torn...... "After Lin Xinyin's nervous mood passed, she began to faintly feel that the other party seemed to be a little perfunctory.
"I don't know about this, it's so dark, I can't see clearly." The lazy man told the truth this time. His mind was all about how to pull out those two silver coins...... He reached out and moved, only to find that the two things were inserted very securely, as if they had been born there.
"Oh...... Thank you then. This answer made Lin Xinyin finally believe the lazy man's words, turned to look at Liu Qianli, and blushed again: "Thank you too...... That money, I owe it to ...... first" said this, which made her embarrassed. Since she came into this world, why does she always owe money everywhere? Ay......
"It's okay, let's hurry first." Liu Qianli nodded and turned over on his horse.
picked up Lin Xinyin, who turned over and got on the horse, but at the same time she was worried about the future journey: the funds are seriously insufficient, how can this be a good ......?
At this time, the lazy man on the cart laughed and teased without knowing the times: "Beauty don't need to thank you, please patronize the little brother in the future......"
Lin Xinyin glanced at the lazy man angrily, then waved the reins and rode a horse to shake off the dust; At the same time, Liu Qianli beside him also followed.
The lazy man sitting on the cart was left empty, and in a cloud of dust, he still turned his head to look at the silver coins embedded in the wheels, staring left and right, stroking up and down, but never knowing how to free them.
