Chapter 34: A Serendipitous Encounter
It was still early, the mountain was still full of morning mist, and most of the people in the town were still asleep, and Yuan Yulin had already rushed back from the mountain with Zhu Lou on his back. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Today was lucky, because she got up early, she picked the high-quality mushrooms early, and at this moment, she was grateful for this gift of nature from the bottom of her heart.
She had already planned, and after a while, she went to the restaurant in the town to sell mushrooms, and she had to go to the pharmacy to get medicine for her mother first, and the rest of the money to buy a brush for her father. Today I also picked a few herbs, if the pharmacy can collect it, just buy a string of sugar gourds for the little brother, he is changing his teeth recently, usually rare to eat sweets, a few days ago he wanted to eat sugar gourds on his birthday, but at that time his mother's illness was a prisoner, so he couldn't take care of buying gifts for the little brother.
There is also a master, although the master has always said that he will not be restrained or anything, but after all, thanks to her old man, she can learn kung fu by herself, and she has also learned a lot of interesting and practical knowledge. Identify herbs and various mushrooms that can subsidize the household. So this time, I have to buy some silk threads to make a sword spike for the master.
As for herself, although she has been practicing martial arts with her master when she has free time, she is not completely uninterested in what the girl's family likes, and she has a sachet...... Forget it, what about the sachets, the money earned today can buy all the things you just thought of, then thank God.
This time, even if you can't buy what you want, but thinking that your family and master can receive affordable gifts, your hard work this morning is worth it.
Now she is taking the only way down the mountain to the town, which is actually a fork in the road, and the other branch leads to the Boryeong Temple outside the city, and the incense has always been very good. It stands to reason that at this hour, those noble ladies in the city would not have gone out of the city so early to offer incense.
However, a few days ago, she was a little late because she went out, and on the way back, she saw a familiar carriage. Although she thought it was a little strange, she walked a few steps away so as not to run into the people in the car.
In fact, she doesn't have to guess who is sitting in the car, who else can there be besides the person who is used to hypocrisy? When my family lived in the house, wasn't it because my father was kind and my mother was kind, and I suffered a lot of losses from that person?
Forget it, what else do you want? Although it should be that I will never be able to live the same life as before, but now that the family has a lot of tea and food, I don't need to look at some people's faces to live, and the current life is quite beautiful.
Although the sky was not yet bright, but the sun saw that it was about to get up, Yuan Yulin couldn't help but speed up her steps, and sweat appeared on her forehead.
But just as she was about to walk to the road, she suddenly wanted to scream "Damn". Coincidentally, it was the carriage again, and it was still head-on!
No, no, the last time we met, it was still some distance away, and there were other people and carriages on the road, and after a few steps, the road flashed to the side, and soon the car passed, and no one would notice them.
This time, the passerby was alone, and the car was on the opposite side, and it was so close that it was impossible not to be noticed.
When she was about to find a place to hide, a sudden anger rose in her heart, why do you want me to hide? Obviously, when you see each other, you should be the one who should be ashamed of yourself.
The truth should be on your own side, and even if you want to argue about something at that time, just go straight to the past. Anyway, I don't live in the same house now, and my face has long been torn, so what else is there to take care of?
But at the thought of a possible conflict with the person in the car, Yuan Yulin hesitated a little, not that she felt scared, if she really wanted to make a move, several adults might not be her opponents.
The main thing is that I have to rush to sell the mushrooms so that I can buy the things that I planned in the morning. Zuixianlou has always had high requirements for the freshness of ingredients, because the diners are all dignitaries in the city. If the delivery of mushrooms is delayed, Yuan Yulin is worried that she will lose this important customer. At that time, even if the will is fought, the gains on your side will outweigh the losses.
So she made up her mind, and prepared to turn around and walk to the side of the road, but as for the carriage, it was better not to see it, and the people in the carriage did not hear anything.
Today's luck is quite good, the people in the car don't seem to lift the curtain to see themselves, and the driver should also be new, so he doesn't recognize himself. Therefore, this person and car passed by on this calm road.
But just as Yuan Yulin breathed a sigh of relief and took a step out of a certain distance, she suddenly heard a shout from behind her: "Stop!" ”
After all, she still couldn't dodge, but then she felt that something was not right, the voice didn't seem to be her own, because she had just heard someone answering.
So she subconsciously glanced back, it didn't matter, she saw two floating boys standing in front of the carriage, although they were already carrying silver in their hands, but they were still staring at the carriage with a wicked smile.
Yes, occasionally some noble ladies and ladies will go out early to burn incense and make wishes in order to show their sincerity, and it is still early at the moment, so they give some floating teenagers who want to buy road wealth an opportunity.
Originally, the silver should have been unimpeded, but today these two people seem to have other plans besides the silver, which is inevitably too bold.
Before Yuan Yulin could figure out the reason, she saw the two of them step forward and pull the coachman down, and knocked him unconscious and threw him aside.
These two people actually have kung fu! Yes, they must not be ordinary ruffians and hooligans, otherwise they would not be so bold and dare to have other plans besides seeking money.
Yuan Yulin heard the master mention that there would occasionally be a few rogues or deserters in this area, so he told himself to be extra careful when going up the mountain. Although most of them are also seeking wealth, they will only focus on those rich people, but they are afraid of encountering outlaws who have no scruples.
I didn't expect that person to be so lucky today, and he actually let her run into it, and for a short moment, Yuan Yulin wanted to just leave. That person does a lot of evil on weekdays, so it's good for her to learn a lesson.
But when I think that if I leave, won't I be sorry for the master's daily teaching? Seeing that someone is in danger and doesn't help, no matter whether the master blames her or not, first of all, she feels that she can't pass this Guan Yuan Yulin.
Although there were many thoughts in my mind just now, they only flashed for a moment, and at this time, the two were about to climb into the carriage, and the woman's scream happened to be heard in the carriage.
So she gritted her teeth, and with a feeling of being out of the way, she picked up a few stones from the ground, walked around behind the two of them, and hit them accurately at several acupuncture points on their bodies.
No matter how open she is, she won't be stupid enough to have a head-on conflict with these two people, and she still has to attack them unprepared.
The two of them only cared about the benefits in front of them, where did they think that they would suffer this dark loss, but when they reacted, they had already fallen to the ground and couldn't move. Yuan Yulin couldn't help but be glad that she usually followed her master to study hard and practice hard, and it finally came in handy at this time.
Yuan Yulin didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly stepped forward to make up a few more acupuncture points for the two people, and now they were completely unconscious, and they were afraid that they would not wake up within an hour.
After a while, when there were other people on the road, the people in the carriage knew what to do, and Yuan Yulin felt that he couldn't afford to delay for a moment.
"Please stay." Just as she was arranging the bamboo basket and preparing to leave, a woman's voice came from the carriage.
Yuan Yulin naturally didn't want to pay attention to it, but she suddenly thought that the voice of the person she didn't want to see was not like this. Oh, it's not hers, it could be her maid's, Yuan Yulin felt that she was thinking a little too much.
But the people in the carriage saw that she did not react, and they couldn't wait to open the curtain at this time.
When she saw the person sitting in the car, Yuan Yulin felt that she really didn't think too much, not only didn't she think too much, but she also didn't think a little too much. Not only is the voice just now not like that person, but it's also a lot worse in age.
"Third sister, it's been a long time." Yuan Xiyue said with joy on her face, and there was still a trace of surprise in her eyes.
