Ruan Yuan and Lu Liu walked from the official post on the edge of the city to the wilderness, and the wilderness looked close, but they walked far away. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe rain is getting heavier and heavier, but the light in the distance is no matter how you go, and you can't see it close. Ruan Yuan and Lu Liu knew that they were scared this time.

Just when the two of them were walking indiscriminately, cold and afraid, they suddenly found that not far ahead, hidden in the dark, as they approached, a ruined temple suddenly appeared. Although it is hidden in the darkness, the half-impossible temple gate, the broken door, and the dry grass on the top of the temple in the autumn of the previous year, like the guise of a hotel, are high on the temple gate, all show that this city god temple has long been used.

Ruan Yuan and Lu Liu were as if they had seen a savior, and the two of them, who were already powerless, suddenly felt lighter. When they arrived at the temple gate, the green willow was about to enter, Ruan Yuan pulled the green willow, put her index finger to her lips, and made a "shhhh

Suddenly, a man's voice came from inside, "Who is sneaking around outside?" ”

was so frightened that Ruan Yuan and Lu Liu didn't make a sound, and they turned around and ran lifelessly. However, after not running a few steps, the people behind pulled her back, and Ruan Yuan screamed in fright: "Ahhh ”

No matter how broken the City God Temple was, there was also an outer courtyard, and the man pulled Ruan Yuan through the outer courtyard wall, and when he arrived at the gate of the main hall, he saw that there was a fire inside. The person inside said lightly: "Let her in." ”

As soon as Ruan Yuan heard this, she didn't need the person to let her, she rushed inside, and saw Lou Shi sitting by the fire, with two birds roasting on it, although she couldn't see what it was, but the outside was scorched and the inside was tender, and Ruan Yuan moved her nose, she was too scared outside just now, she didn't smell it, it was too fragrant. Ruan Yuan walked for most of the night, she was already hungry, and swallowed her saliva unconsciously.

Lu Liu, who was also caught later, was also quite surprised, but he was calmer than Ruan Yuan.

"Why are you here?" Standing on the main hall, under the light of the fire, the god who had been worshipped was now covered with cobwebs and dust. Ruan Yuan bypassed the fire pit, stood opposite the building, and asked.

The Hokage jumped on Lou Shi's face, and Lou Shi's hand moved the things roasted on the fire from time to time, pointing to the small pony stool and saying, "Why did you run out in the middle of the night?" Hurry up where to sit and roast the fire, be careful that tomorrow you will catch a cold and get a cold, and it will not be good to go out. ”

Saying this, Ruan Yuan also felt cold. I wanted to be tougher, but then I thought about it, why can't I get along with myself? Green willow whispered on the side, "The girl still sat close to the fire and dried the clothes on her body." If you are really sick, it is not a trivial matter. ”

So Ruan Yuan also got off the donkey and sat down in front of the fire, but it was not warm enough, so she stretched out her hand and leaned over the fire to keep warm. However, Ruan Yuan didn't forget the previous question, and saw that Lou Shi's mind was all about the two well-roasted food, and asked again, "Why are you here?" ”

Lou Shi picked up a water bag beside him, handed it to Ruan Yuan and said, "This is wine, you drink less and warm up." ”

Ruan Yuan took a sip slightly, a little spicy. Then he handed it to the green willow. Then he stared at the stone with wide eyes. Lu Liu took out a clean handkerchief and gave it to Ruan Yuan, and Ruan Yuan wiped her hands and face. Then it was handed back to the green willow. The green willow also wiped itself clean.

Lou Shi picked one up, held it to the tip of his nose and sniffed it, Ruan Yuan followed Lou Shi's movements, unconsciously swallowed his saliva again. Lou Shi smiled and held it up in front of Ruan Yuan and said, "Do you want to eat or not?" ”

Ruan Yuan looked at the unknown bird that was roasted a little black, and originally planned to insist, pursing her lips and glaring at Lou Shi. But in my heart, I thought: Don't take it away, I'll hold on for a while, hold on for a while, and if you persuade me more, I'll eat. Ruan Yuan's eyes lit up.

The green willow pulled the corner of Ruan Yuan's clothes on the side and said, "Girl, this looks delicious." Just smelling it smells good. As he spoke, he heard Green Willow swallow his saliva as well.

Ruan Yuan, who couldn't help it for a long time, stretched out his hand, but Lou Shi withdrew his hand and said, "It's quite backbone, I don't like to force others the most." Since I don't eat it, I'll reluctantly eat both. Alas, it has to be held. ”

As he spoke, Lou Shi tore off one of his legs, which immediately became even more fragrant.

Luliu said: "Does the girl smell more fragrant than just now?" When torn and grilled whole, the smell of meat spreads. Girl, the slave and maid are so hungry that they smell it. Isn't the girl hungry? ”

Ruan Yuan turned her head viciously and glared at Lu Liu and said, "Don't speak." ”

Green Willow lowered his head aggrievedly and stretched out his hand to bake the fire. Her hair and clothes were wet.

Lou Shi saw that Ruan Yuan's eyes were round, and he had forgotten what he had asked him before, and stared intently at the roasted game in his hand, looking very cute. I've already been happy in my heart. Afraid of making Ruan Yuan anxious, he reached out and tore off the roast pheasant leg he tore, handed it to Ruan Yuan and said, "Don't be angry, it's time for the beads to fall out again." Eat something, so you have the strength to be angry. ”

Ruan Yuan still glared at Lou Shi fiercely, took the pheasant leg fiercely, and said, "Give that leg to Luliu, she walked with me for half the night, and she was also tired and hungry." ”

Lou Shi obediently tore off the other leg and handed it to Green Willow.

Lu Liu didn't dare to take it and looked at Ruan Yuan. Ruan Yuan said: "If he gives it to you, you will continue to eat, what is polite?" Who knows if he didn't stay in the capital in the middle of the night, but came to this wilderness in the wilderness, if he did something bad? Eat quickly, if you can't stay in a while, you'll kill the two of us. A hungry ghost is better than a full ghost. ”

Green willow silently took the pheasant leg and nibbled on it. Green willow eats very delicately, taking small bites, as if tasting some delicious food in the world, chewing carefully.

Looking at Ruan Yuan again, holding the leg bone of the pheasant leg with his hand, he bit his mouth and pushed his hand to both sides, and Ruan Yuan had a large piece of meat in his mouth. Then Ruan Yuan opened her mouth wider, and with her tongue, all the meat entered her mouth, and her cheeks bulged out.

Lou Shi saw that the other one on the fire was almost roasted, and shouted, "Dao Yi." ”

Dao Yi didn't know where to hit it, entered the hall, and saluted Ruan Yuan: "Young lady Wanfu." The kid who just scared the young lady, the little one had already beaten him to make the young lady angry. ”

Ruan Yuan had something in her mouth, and although she was not happy to call her so, she didn't have time to pay attention to him now.

Lou Shi handed the roasted pheasant out and said, "There's nothing to eat outside, take this and eat it for you, don't fight." If you grab a chicken and fight, see how I clean you up. ”

As soon as Dao answered, he thanked him and went out happily.

Lou Shi Development continued to roast the legless pheasants far away on the fire to ensure that they would not burn and would not be cold. And tear the skin little by little and eat it.

Ruan Yuan looked at Lou Shi strangely, and finally swallowed the contents of her mouth into her stomach, and asked, "Why don't you eat it?" ”

Lou Shi said: "I'm not hungry yet, you can eat, don't worry about me." ”

Ruan Yuan said in her heart: Who cares about you? If you like to eat or not, it's better not to eat, I ate it with Luliu. Thinking like this, Ruan Yuan bit the roasted chicken leg faster, and after a few clicks, there were only bones. Ruan Yuan chirped: "It's too thin, there's no meat." ”

Looking at the green willow again, half of the grilled chicken thighs haven't been eaten yet. With a pointed hand, he didn't even rub a little oil on his palm, let alone on his lips. The green willows are eaten by tearing them by hand. Extremely delicate.

Lou Shi tore off the pheasant wings and a piece of meat on his chest for Ruan Yuan, handed it to her, and said, "Of course the pheasant that has passed the winter has no meat." If you like to eat, I'll catch it for you this fall, because the pheasants in autumn are the fattest, and the meat is more tender than now. ”

When Ruan Yuan heard this, she said, "Really? Is pheasant meat really better in autumn than it is now? I think today, except for being thinner, it's already delicious. After speaking, he opened his mouth and tore a piece into his mouth to chew.

Lou Shi said: "That's true. In the past, when I was at the border gate, the fire food in the barracks was not good, and we often went outside to catch game to eat. Especially in winter, when it snows, it is especially easy to grasp, this thing is very stupid, when frightened, it squats on the ground and does not move, you just need to reach out and grab it. ”

In his previous life, when Lou Shi was in a good mood, he would also talk to Ruan Yuan about his previous affairs. And he had said these things to her. He also promised to catch pheasants for her to eat, but he never fulfilled it.

Lou Shi saw Ruan Yuan staring at him stunned, his mouth didn't move, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Ruan Yuan lowered her eyes, and suddenly, she felt that the pheasant meat in her mouth was not fragrant at all, like chewing wax, and it was difficult to swallow.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the sound of the raindrops hitting the roofs became more and more intense. Lou Shi said: "Your aunt and your cousin found out that you were missing in the morning, so they had to be in a hurry." The rain would not stop for a while, and when it was dawn, I asked them to send them a letter so that they could be reassured. ”

Ruan Yuan nodded, and like a green willow, she changed to tearing the meat little by little.

Lou Shi said again: "You are here first, I see that your clothes are almost dry, there is my salute in it, there is a marching bed, you can make do with it and rest on it." Anyway, if it's raining, you can't get on the road. It's a pity I don't have any clothes here that you can change into. I'll ask the messenger to bring back a clean set for both of you. ”

Ruan Yuan raised her head and asked, "You haven't answered me yet, why are you here?" You arranged that caravan, didn't you? I've seen the one with the surname Luo. ”

Lou Shi immediately understood, when did Ruan Yuan say that he had seen it. So he smiled: "I was afraid that you would find out, so I deliberately looked for him, but I didn't expect you to even see him." I was demoted out of the capital by the emperor, not far from Liu Gui's office, Yanbei Bianting. ”

Ruan Yuan looked at Lou Shi suspiciously, not quite believing his words. But he didn't believe that he was out of Beijing for her, because he couldn't think of any reason, so he persuaded himself in his heart to believe Lou Shi's words for the time being. Ruan Yuan asked, "Hou Ye's illness is cured?" Otherwise, you can't be willing to leave Beijing. It is impossible for the emperor to let you out. ”

Lou Shi smiled: "Thanks to you, it's already good." ”

Ruan Yuan asked: "Then you know that Hou Ye has been sick and has not recovered, what is it for?" ”

Lou Shi smiled, lowered his head and pulled out the fire, and saw Ruan Yuan finish eating the roast chicken wings in his hand, and said to the outside: "Bring a basin of water." ”

Daoyi came in with a smile on his face, holding a wooden basin in his hand and soap for washing his hands. Ruan Yuan washed her hands first. Dao Yi is going to be poured out, and then a new one will be called. Luliu said: "Our girl's hand washing water, it's okay, I'll just wash it." ”

Lou Shi saw that the two of them had finished washing, and pointed to a doorless door frame inside and said, "There, it has been cleaned up, and it was originally planned for me to live." You two go in, I'll be outside guard, it's fine. ”

Ruan Yuan patted her body, and she was not humble, and entered it with the green willow, which was originally a place for the officers and soldiers guarding the temple or the host to live, and the Chenghuang Temple was mostly organized by the officials to worship, so in the main hall, there would be this kind of special place for people to rest. It's just that it's been abandoned, so there's no door left.

When I got inside, I cleaned it up. The marching bed is a folding rattan bed, which has been propped up, but the cover on it is just that it is a floor stone, Ruan Yuan's heart is awkward.

Probably Lou Shi outside also thought of it, stood at the door and said, "I haven't used this set, it's new." After thinking about it, he said again: "I will know when you come out of the post station, otherwise what do you think is the matter with the light in the distance?" ”

Ruan Yuan suddenly realized why they had walked for so long at night without even seeing a wild dog. Lou Shi said it so bluntly that Ruan Yuan couldn't pretend to be confused. Ruan Yuan glanced at Lou Shi and said, "I'm going to rest, it's not you who hurt me when I was tired to death after walking in the middle of the night?" If you weren't haunted, I'd run out in the middle of the night? ”

Saying this, Ruan Yuan suddenly thought of the purpose of her coming out, and asked, "By the way, who is sitting in the carriage?" Suddenly, he shouted, "Ah, it can't be you, right?" ”

Lou Shi smiled: "You think too much, how can that be possible?" Do you see that they followed? ”

"Who is in the carriage, and the one surnamed Luo won't let me see it, so I think there are ghosts inside." Ruan Yuan asked.

Lou Shi said: "If you don't let you see it, don't look at it, that's their family's business, I can't say it." In short, the person in the car, he doesn't want others to see it, don't force it, you know that the person on it will not pose a threat to you. ”

Ruan Yuan pouted and said, "You care about him?" Am I not worried about them, afraid that they will have bad ideas? ”

Lou Shi said helplessly: "Do you think that with those things you brought, they can make them go through such a hard time?" ”

Ruan Yuan said angrily: "You have never heard of the heart of guarding against people?" Go out, it's almost dawn. Green willow and I made do with this bed first, and when the rain stopped, we went back. ”

Lou Shi said good-naturedly: "Okay, you can rest." After walking so far in one night, I was also exhausted. After speaking, he turned around and walked to the fire again, gathered the ashes, called Dao Yi in, asked him to bring in a copper basin, and put the ashes into the copper basin with an iron shovel, and brought them to Ruan Yuan and the others.

At the door, Lou Shi said, "I'll go in and go down." ”

Ruan Yuan and Lu Liu huddled together and lay on the bed, just stretched their waists, and relieved a little bit of fatigue. I was disgusted that Lou Shi was troublesome, and my tone was not very impatient: "What's the matter?" ”

Lou Shi at the door said: "It's cold inside, send some fire to the two of you, and you won't freeze when you fall asleep." (To be continued.) )
