Chapter 67: A Swordsman
The next morning, the weather was excellent, and the sun was warm and warm.
Yang Yu got up early, washed up, and there were more than a dozen carriages parked in the small courtyard, which were loaded with full of goods, and the servants were already waiting in the courtyard.
"What about the white kite?" Yang Yu glanced at it, but found that the little girl was gone.
Qi Yan Jingmo shook his head, Yang Yu suddenly remembered the strange man he rescued on the street last night, he couldn't help but hold his forehead, and he couldn't wait for the wind under his feet, and walked quickly to the guest room.
The door of the guest room was open, and when Yang Yu saw the scene inside, he was immediately surprised, and his expression was dumbfounded.
I saw a tall man sitting on the couch, on the couch, on the ground, there were dishes and chopsticks everywhere, and the man was constantly stuffing food into his mouth, with vegetable soup and rice grains all over his face.
Yang Yu frowned, he couldn't bear it, and he didn't say anything, so he quietly entered the door, knelt on the edge of the collapse, and the white kite glanced at Yang Yu in embarrassment, Yang Yu shook his head lightly, and said in a low voice: "Go and get some more food." ”
"Yes. The white kite replied in a low voice and ran out quickly.
The man held the bowl and had no intention of stopping, and kept picking up the rice in the bowl.
Yang Yu slowly poured a cup of tea and put it in front of the man.
There was no rice grain in the bowl, the man couldn't help licking the edge of the bowl, and reluctantly put down the bowl, only then did he see Yang Yu.
"You. The man's face turned red in vain, and his eyes were blank.
Yang Yu pushed the teacup again, and the man raised the teacup and drank it all.
Yang Yu's face was white and shining, her eyes were radiant, and the corners of her lips carried a kind smile, and the sun shone in from behind her, which seemed to coat her whole person with a dazzling brilliance.
The man was stunned, and in an instant, he wiped the vegetable soup from his face.
Yang Yu smiled and said: "The guests came suddenly, and the greetings were not good, don't be surprised." ”
When the man heard such a nice voice, his face turned red again, and he said, "You saved me, thank you." ”
Yang Yu shook his head slightly, and the white kite had already taken the last few bowls of rice and entered the door.
The white kite set the meal and stepped aside.
The man picked up the dishes and chopsticks again, but he looked gentle, taking small bites, never touching the edge of the bowl, drinking soup and eating vegetables without a sound, elegant like a well-educated child of a family.
Until he finished the last bowl, he silently put down the dishes and chopsticks.
Yang Yucai said: "I should have said hello for a few more days, but I have to travel far away at home today, so I ......" Yang Yu looked embarrassed.
The man's face turned red before he said, "I'm causing you trouble, I'll leave." Thank you for the kindness of the girl, if there is a chance, I will repay it with my life. The man said this, and got up.
Yang Yu didn't know why, a little uneasy, and said, "Do you have a place to go?" ”
The man paused, frowned slightly, and said, "I want to go back to Jinling." ”
Yang Yu nodded and said, "I also happened to go to Jinling, if you want, you can go together." The man pursed his lips uncomfortably, frowning, not knowing how to answer.
Yang Yu smiled again: "If Lang Jun is willing to go along, he can also take care of me on the road." ”
Yang Yu said that he could take care of her on the road, not Yang Yu to help him.
Her actions were too generous, her words were too sincere, and the man was afraid of being involved with her, but at this moment he also knew his own situation, and if he didn't have her help, how would he return to Jinling, which was thousands of miles away.
"Woofu, Woofu! The man sighed, turned his eyes to look at Yang Yu, and said with a red face: "Then it's annoying." ”
Yang Yu faintly felt that this person was very extraordinary, and there were too many mysteries about him, such as the southern accent that he tried his best to hide, his tattered but luxurious clothes, and his elegant cultivation during meals, he said that he would go back to Jinling instead of going to Jinling.
None of this is important, the most important thing is that Yang Yu feels that this person is worth helping, and it is enough to repay him with that sentence of sacrificing his life for the kindness of a meal.
"Okay. Yang Yu smiled brightly.
Several people walked out of the guest room, Yang Yu looked at the servants in the courtyard, and said slowly, indifferently: "This is my guest......" She hesitated for a moment, and looked at the person.
The man frowned slightly, thought about it, looked at Yang Yu with some hesitation, and said, "In Xia Ah Jiu." ”
Qi Yan was slightly dissatisfied and said: "The girl rescued him, but he didn't even want to reveal his name, who are our girls!" ”
Yang Yu scolded: "Qi Yan doesn't need to say much! He turned politely and distantly: "It's okay, the name is just a code name, Ah Jiu, what do you say?" ”
Ah Jiu's eyes flickered a little, and he opened his mouth to explain something, but finally closed his mouth and said nothing.
Yang Yu turned to face everyone, her whole body was not angry and mighty, her eyes were clear and seemed to be able to see through the bottom of people's hearts, she raised her voice and said: "Ah Jiu is my guest, and he will go to Jinling with us." If someone asks on the road, they will say that Ah Jiu is a swordsman, and I spent a lot of money to hire to protect us, remember? ”
"Yes! The crowd replied in unison.
Yang Yu turned to look at Ah Jiu and said, "Is it okay to say this?" ”
Ah Jiu nodded slightly, clasped his hands into fists, and said with some guilt: "Thank you for your understanding." ”
Yang Yu nodded slightly, ordered someone to give Ah Jiu a horse, and got into the carriage. In the corner of the carriage, there was a white gull with withered petals quietly arriving. Yang Yu stretched out his white and plump hand, stroked the flower stem, a loving smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and he muttered softly: "Mother, Mother is going to Jinling again, Mother is in the spirit of the sky, bless Ah Xiu and Ah Yu." As he spoke, Yang Yu lifted the small shower at hand and watered the flower soil.
The carriage drove out of South Street, turned onto Main Street, and reached the square. Hundreds of carriages have already gathered in the square, with red tops, blue roofs, and green roofs, and the carriages are inserted with family emblems, which are dazzling for a while.
"Ah Yu! There you are! Pei Liang saw Yang Yu's carriage from a distance, rode a jujube red horse, and rushed over.
"General. Yang Yu opened the curtain and replied in a low voice, a pair of bright eyes were clear, reflecting a little cinnabar in the center of his eyebrows, which looked green and bright.
Pei Liang was dressed in a purple-black robe, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, his expression was radiant, and his facial features were like an axe, and he was particularly healthy and handsome under the sun.
Pei Liang raised his lips and smiled, revealing his white teeth, and continued: "I heard that you are going to join the Huan clan's convoy, I will take you there." ”
Yang Yu nodded and said, "There is General Lao, and Mrs. Kong's carriage, who is also with me." ”
Pei Liang smiled and said, "Mrs. Kong has arrived, and she is now on the Huan family's side." ”
"Yes. Yang Yu put his poked head back. The carriage restarted and stopped in a few moments.
Yang Yu jumped out of the carriage lightly, but Pei Liang looked at Ah Jiu, who was handsome and tall, and wondered: "This person ......"
Yang Yu smiled and said, "Swordsman, you can protect me." ”
Pei Liang nodded and said: "This is really thoughtful, I received the holy decree this time, I need to go back to Jinling to report on my work, and go on the road with everyone, you can rest assured that I am here." His eyes looked at Ah Jiu, only seeing that this person was dressed in a plain robe, but his bearing was extraordinary, was he really just a swordsman?
Yang Yu raised his eyes to look at Pei Liang, and said in a crisp voice: "Then there will be General Lao." ”
Pei Liang also went to Jinling? In the previous life, Pei Liang was captured three cities by Yu Fumu in Liaocheng, and then exiled by Jinshang, and he has been guarding the Yangtze River until the later battle of Weishui, he was recalled to Jinling and became famous. In this life, it is different.
