Chapter 4: Chance Encounters

This road connects the north and south gates of the town, and Zhao Ruoyun entered the city from the north gate. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoZhao Ruoyun thought for a moment and headed south. The number of displaced people on the streets has not increased significantly compared to a few days ago, and there are a few more businesses on both sides of the road than when they first arrived.

Zhao Ruoyun really just wants to come out for a walk, she is not a person who can't stand loneliness, it's just that the inn is noisy, and she has slept for two days, and she can't sleep today. Tang Jue and the others resolutely refused to let themselves help. Therefore, she was forced to come out and relax. Anyway, she still remembers the situation on the street. I didn't come back for eight years, and I thought I was about to die in a foreign land, until I came back and found that I still remembered this land so much. A child who ran over bumped into Zhao Ruoyun's leg, interrupting her musings. The guards in the back hurriedly came over to check. Zhao Ruoyun looked down and saw that it was the child of Mrs. Cao's family.

"Sister!" The child called. Although she saved the child, they have not had any contact in the past few days. The child probably didn't know her identity, so she called her sister according to the name of ordinary people. If Zhao Ruoyun is about the same age as the girl's mother, it can be seen that her appearance is indeed much younger than Mrs. Cao, and at the age of 25, she still looks like she is 17 or 8 years old. Moreover, she has been in the Hu tribe for eight years, and she did not marry her, so everyone is commensurate with her. So the little girl didn't feel uncomfortable when she called her that.

"Why are you here?" Zhao Ruoyun touched the little girl's head and said.

"I'm out playing."

"Does your mother know?"

"I don't know, she's taking care of others, and she can't take care of me, so I just came out to play."

"Go back quickly, your mother will have to worry about it when it's late."

"Okay, I was going back." Saying that, the little girl ran north, "Wait," Zhao Ruoyun stopped her, and turned to the little guard behind her, "You send her back." ”。

"Yes." The guard replied, and led the little girl back.

After seeing them leave, Zhao Ruoyun continued to go south alone, and soon arrived at the south gate of the town. Out of the south gate is the official road. The south side of the town, as well as the back side, is lined with high mountains, and the official road is a relatively smooth road sandwiched between the two high mountains, barely allowing horse-drawn carriages to pass. It is also the only way to enter Liulin Town from the south. There weren't too many people coming and going at the south gate, and it didn't seem like any more homeless people were pouring into the city. Zhao Ruoyun's heart let go of it a little more. Not long after leaving the city gate, on the side of a relatively shallow road, I don't know which big well-wishers built a shed to give some gruel and hot water to the disaster victims. At this moment, the sky began to fall raindrops, and Zhao Ruoyun did not bring rain gear. She went to the soup kitchen shed to take shelter from the rain. Because there were already a lot of people in the shed, some people who came and went in this rain wanted to take shelter from the rain under it. Therefore, when Zhao Ruoyun walked, he could only stand on the outermost edge of the shed, and when the wind blew, the rain would hit his shoulders.

It didn't take long for a seven or eight-year-old boy who was drenched all over his body to run in from outside, and there was really no place for the shed to be low, so Zhao Ruoyun moved out again and let him stand in.

"Come in," Zhao Ruoyun said to the child.

"Thank you" A-snee! The little boy sneezed. Zhao Ruoyun saw that his whole body was soaked, and there was no trace of the adults who were watching him. He took off his blouse and draped it over the boy's shoulders.

"No thanks." The kid said stubbornly, but sneeze again before he could finish speaking.

"Put it on, or you'll catch a cold." After all, he was a child, and he might not be able to find any reason to refuse, so he acquiesced to Zhao Ruoyun putting his clothes on himself in a muffled voice. didn't mean to say thank you, Zhao Ruoyun didn't care about these.

"Isn't the girl afraid of catching a cold if she only thinks about others?" At this time, a young man's voice suddenly sounded behind Zhao Ruoyun. Zhao Ruoyun turned around and saw a man in white, standing behind him with an oil-paper umbrella. The man gestured to Zhao Ziyunruo with his gaze, he only paid attention to the little boy just now, and Zhao Ruoyun realized at this time that half of his body was already half of his body. Fortunately, the weather has already entered summer, so I haven't felt too cold yet. The man was holding an umbrella at this time, helping her to block most of the wind and rain.

"Thank you for your concern." Zhao Ruoyun looked at his clothes and appearance, and he was in his early 20s, as if the son of a family came out to hang out and talk, and he didn't want to entangle with him too much.

"Looking at the girl's face, her breath should be sick. Patients should take care of themselves first. The girl doesn't fancy herself like this, it's really distressing. Halfway through his words, the man's face suddenly froze.

Zhao Ruoyun didn't want to say more to him, so he turned his head away. The man suddenly grabbed Zhao Ruoyun's arm and said, there is a plan on the mountain to come down, hurry up and leave here. Zhao Ruoyun was stunned for a moment, half-convinced. The man didn't explain it to her. Shout out loud and warn the others. Most of the people ran up after hearing this, and some people were as suspicious as Zhao Ruoyun, and there were only people who could shelter from the rain under this shed, and some people were reluctant to come out. The man dragged them one by one. Zhao Ruoyun was only stunned for a moment, and then believed the man's words. She saw that he was quite skilled, and he should have a high level of martial arts, so it was not surprising that he could hear the sound of falling rocks earlier than ordinary people.

With such a judgment, Zhao Ruoyun also joined the team to persuade people to leave quickly. It is already sporadic at any time when the small slip falls and falls onto the shed. The man said to Zhao Ruoyun, "You go first." Zhao Ruoyun searched for people who had fallen behind, and said that the flow of people was running. At that moment, several rocks larger than just now slid down and smashed down the pergola. Zhao Ruoyun saw that the little boy who ran to her side in the rain just now was scratched by the rolling gravel and squatted on the ground unable to move. She immediately ran over and pulled the child up, but she had no way to pull the child up completely. There was a bigger stone coming towards them, and Zhao Ruoyun protected the child with his body while encouraging, "You must be a little man, get up, let's get out of here." ”

At this time, a stone was flying towards them, and Zhao Ruoyun held the child in his arms and turned his back to the direction where the stone came from. Just as the stone was about to hit her, a figure flew over and pulled them aside. Then he led them into the distance. The sudden facilitation made Zhao Ruoyun have no time to judge, just running hard in the middle of the class. Until the force that pulls you away is gone. The first thing she saw was that there was a big tree in front of her, and she almost subconsciously helped herself over it without letting herself fall. After that, he scanned the surroundings and found that the child who had just given birth was sitting at his feet, so he was relieved. Zhao Ruoyun closed his eyes, quietly adjusted his breathing, and felt a hand holding him in a daze, and then a clean and refreshing internal force entered his body, wandered around his body, and slowly withdrew after walking in his body for two weeks. Zhao Ruoyun closed his eyes and rested for a while, feeling that his energy and physical strength had recovered.
