14. The Unseen
The day doesn't end there. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Ming Mo impatiently lifted the robe at his feet again, and shouted vigorously in his mouth, "Let one go......"
Bo Ling covered most of his face, and even had to take off the robe he was worshipping so as not to be entangled again.
The two of them walked back and forth in the panicked crowd, carefully avoiding passers-by who had grabbed food or were looking for their families.
There has never been anything like this in the Metzfjord.
The door in front of the study hall was completely torn down, and countless people stepped forward to take the children's hands, and those innocent smiling faces asked one after another, "Can I really go home?" Don't have to study anymore? ”
The neighbors hugged each other, broke through the walls between the two households, and rebuilt the boundary outside the courtyard gate.
The woman was chattering about whether there was enough food for the winter, and some people began to stare restlessly out of the window, the bell on the hill really did not ring again, and the worshippers who came down from the temple, while looking for the traces of Bo Ling, knocked on the door from door to door, persuading the people to flee in the direction of the remaining capital.
Turn left from the dyeing house with red cloth and you will see a narrow alley.
The woman in black turned the corner there, and Ming Mo saw it clearly, and hurriedly gasped, ready to catch up with her.
As soon as she ran a few steps, the sound of a brass bell accompanied by an unstoppable shouting knocked her to the side of the road.
Looking up, the long convoy was just halfway through, and the thick-footed horses were pulling the wooden carts that had just been put on the market this morning, full of fruit, neatly cut lamb, wine sealed in transparent bottles, clean and soft straw, and pillows that could be seen with a slight shaking.
The people stacked what they could pick on top of the carts and quietly followed the convoy, with the leader looking up from time to time, and the number of people behind them increasing, and so on they made their way out of the fjord and towards the further north.
Ming Mo stood in place and waited for only a short while, then found a gap and flashed past the wheel.
Bo Ling watched as she stumbled to her feet, disappearing all the way down the steps to the left.
By the time he squeezed past the convoy, he couldn't find any trace of Ming Mo.
Descend the steps, stoop over the arched bridge overhead, and pass through a sauce shop that has been knocked over in various colors, ending in a path that is only big enough for two people to go back and forth.
On both sides of the road there were low houses, supported by long poles, and the whole plank was crookedly fastened into the doorway, and the roots of the trees were half in the ground and half on the walls of the houses.
This is the slum of the fjord, and most of the people living here are busy farmers in the fields.
The woman in black stood in front of one of the doors, and Ming Mo was afraid that she would run away again, so she dared to chase her all the way without saying a word.
"What, you're alone?"
The woman in black turned her head and asked, as if she had expected it for a long time.
Ming Mo realized at this time that there was no trace of Bo Ling, and the direction behind him was terribly quiet.
"Forget it...... the woman in black looked at the half-open door in front of her, "It's a useless thing." ”
Such a casual sentence made Ming Mo a little unhappy, but she didn't dare to disobey this woman.
The two of them stood so quietly, Ming Mo watched for a long time, and couldn't help but pay attention to the movement in the door.
There were a few words of speech staggering there, mixed with strange moans, I don't know why, Ming Mo realized that there must be something bad, and the feeling of a chill in her back went all the way to the soles of her feet, so frightened that she involuntarily went straight back.
Suddenly, there was a "boom", and a fat figure burst out of the door of the next room.
It was an old woman I had seen outside the temple before, and she had a round little fat man in her arms, and she was stuffing something into her waist bag, looking like she was about to escape.
When she looked up, she was also startled to find Ming Mo standing in front of her house stupidly.
"Ouch...... It's you! You little girl, why are you standing here alone? Why don't you hurry home! ”
The old woman just gasped for breath, and she was no longer in a hurry, and she was still thinking about Ming Mo's long-windedness: "Listen to the advice of the eldest lady!" Don't be out there alone, wait for those people to come and be careful of picking your skin! ”
Ming Mo timidly lowered her head, glanced at the woman in black, lowered her voice and said, "I'm here, looking for this sister and asking something......"
When the old woman heard her say this, she opened her mouth wide and gasped, and secretly looked in the direction of Ming Mo's eyes, and suddenly her face darkened: "Mom, it's actually a crazy girl......
She pressed the little fat man back on her shoulder, as if frightened, and stepped on the corner of her skirt to flee into the distance.
Only then did Ming Mo figure out what was going on, and turned to look at the woman in black, she still had a cold face.
Ming Mo pointed in the direction where the old woman fled: "That lady, she can't see you?" ”
"What, scared?"
The woman in black obviously meant to laugh.
"I'm not afraid!" Ming Mo gritted her teeth, thinking that she couldn't go on like this, "I want my things back...... Though...... That one! Can you give it back to me? ”
The woman in black looked at her and stretched out her hand to herself without fear of death, raising her arms high, thinking that this little girl was really bold, and at this time she looked righteous, and her voice was much louder than before.
"Your name is Mingmo?"
She asked, pulling out the little doll from earlier.
The originally lively villain was lying quietly in her palm at the moment, the sparks in her head were extinguished, and her hands and feet were softly twisted together.
Ming Mo's eyes revealed the firmness of her heart, her cheeks were slightly red, and the curvature of the corners of her mouth could clearly show that she was clenching her teeth: "It seems to be ...... It's not quite the same anymore. ”
"I re-enchanted it, and of course it was different, and ...... This enchantment never expires. ”
Ming Mo stared at the woman's palm seriously, it was such a small piece of inconspicuous wood, she had been carrying it with her before, its arms and body, she should be extremely familiar, but at this moment, this black and gold little thing suddenly gave her an infinite sense of distance, as if she didn't know it.
"Take it to ......"
The woman in black handed over the object.
"You're going to give it to me?"
"Didn't you say it's your stuff?"
"Stop lying!" Ming Mo suddenly raised his head, swept away his previous weak posture and fought back fiercely, "I know very well that this kind of thing only belongs to the enchanted person, and others can't use it at all, unless you really want to give it to me...... If you're just trying to make fun of me...... I don't think it's necessary. ”
In an instant, the events of this day suddenly came flooding up, and I didn't have time to feel sad about my brother's death.
Then there is the growing condition of the grandfather, and, even if he can really go back, when he leaves, he vows to get all the medicine of the year back, so that the grandfather does not have to wait any longer, and now? I don't see anything at all.
Ming Mo stubbornly turned her back, and tears began to fall uncontrollably, causing her to roll up her sleeves in a panic and wipe them indiscriminately, but she was also seen in her eyes.
The woman in black obviously began to feel impatient, this kind of little girl who can only cry when she has nothing to do is indeed rare, she stiffened her tone and repeated again: "I said, here you go!" ”
"What? Are you sure? Why do you ......?"
"As long as you do something for me......"
Although Ming Mo subconsciously felt why it was herself, she couldn't help but agree again and again.
"Take it, go back to the sentry post at once, you will see a man with a little girl tonight, you just have to tell him, say I have arranged for him to hide people in your house."
Ming Mo took the villain, but her eyes always stayed on the woman's face, even if her gray eyes seemed to be constantly asking in her heart, Ming Mo couldn't help but say: "Do you know me?" ”
"I said it! Go back! ”
After the woman in black finished speaking, she turned her head to look at the wooden door that was half-hidden before.
Ming Mo wanted to turn around, but couldn't help but look back.
There was no movement in the door, and the dark hole was dark, and the sunlight passed through the door panel, but it seemed that it was impossible to enter.
"What's in there?"
"Inside?" The woman smiled gently again, "It's someone who has gone out of his way to find me......"
"That...... Thank you, can I ever see you again? ”
"If I were you, I would try to survive......"
