Chapter 119: Bai Zhilan
The bead curtain has no relatives, all her memories only exist in the Yun family, the Yun family is not known to people of her age and Shen Xingchen is not yet known, combined with the reaction of the bead curtain, Shen Xingchen can already guess the true identity of the person in the carriage. Yun Xiang and Bai Zhilan, the real masters of the Yun family!
"I'm afraid it's going to be a heavy rainstorm this day, the two sons are ......"
The victim said no, shouldn't the perpetrator just give up, but Bai Zhilan didn't, she smiled, her tone was friendly, and her words really seemed to be an elder who cared about her juniors. Shen Xingchen was very tempting when he heard her words, and his eyes looked at the bead curtain from time to time over her head, shouting in his heart that it was not good, guessing that she might have suspected the identity of the bead curtain!
"It should be to make amends, I have some silver here, although I can't make up for anything, but it's also a little careful, don't dislike it. ”
The two of them went out of the city, and the cost of three people and one horse would indeed not be less, and that person was so sincere, the most important thing was that Shen Xingchen only wanted to end the topic as soon as possible, and if he didn't answer, he would have to spend more words, Shen Xingchen reached out and took the money bag and touched it, his heart was no less than fifty taels, Bai Zhilan was really generous, and her face was calm and calm: "Madame has said so, then it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate." Say goodbye. ”
Shen Xingchen didn't wait for Bai Zhilan to reply, he hugged the bead curtain and turned around to leave, but the bead curtain's body was still shaking badly. Hey, don't be too obvious.
"The situation just now is really dangerous, that fall is ruthless, hurry back to the carriage brother to show you!" Shen Xingchen tried his best to maintain the greatest peace and said these words of concern and reproach, his steps were big, almost dragging her towards the direction of the carriage, he was a good brother who cared about his younger brother's body, and this kind of action would not attract too much attention from others.
The carriage was in front of him, and the gaze behind him lingered on his back for a long time, making Shen Xingchen panic in his heart. forcibly calmed down and got into the carriage, and unexpectedly heard a voice from the other side: "Girl, stop!"
If the bead curtain was stiff and inconvenient just now, it is definitely like an ice sculpture now, or just two words to test her, just like a master of martial arts who easily clicked on the acupoints of her whole body, she stood in place and couldn't move, and even lost the ability to tremble.
Shen Xingchen cried out in distress, her arm was inserted into the armpit of the bead curtain, tilted her head slightly close to her ear, and whispered in a voice that the two of them could hear: "Bead curtain, she is just testing us, following my footsteps and moving forward." ”
Zhu Curtain was still stuffy, and his pupils lit up after listening to Shen Xingchen's words. Her sense of presence in the Yun family is really low, Bai Zhilan has to stay outside for six months a year, and she is dressed as a man, how can she easily recognize her. Zhu Curtain felt that his body had finally warmed up, and the lost strength was slowly coming back. Step by step, the two of them moved in the direction of the carriage.
The two got into the carriage, and Shen Xingchen heard Bai Zhilan muttering to herself: It looks really familiar, is it really wrong. Then there was the sound of the wheels grinding away.
As soon as Bai Zhilan's carriage left, the scar-faced city guard strode over, and his scrutinizing gaze fell on her, as if she had really done something shady, Shen Xingchen was a little weak by this gaze, and felt that he was guilty, raised his lips and smiled, and thanked him: "Thank you for what happened just now." ”
Scarface retracted the scrutiny in his eyes, and became the arrogant and arrogant appearance he saw for the first time: "Where is the duty." ”
Now is not a good time to thank people for their kindness, and I still feel uneasy in my heart, and I always feel bad. Shen Xingchen flattered a few more words, and the meaning of going out of the city was also expressed between the words, Scarface searched so cautiously just now, but now he didn't mean to stop again.
The groom got into the carriage and drove the horse out of the city gate with a whip.
The carriage walked slowly for a while, until the voice behind him became softer and softer, Shen Xingchen suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, leaned on the carriage with his whole body paralyzed, the bead curtain was not much better than her, his eyes were wet, and he stumbled and asked Shen Xingchen: "Xingchen, are we going out of the city now?"
"Well, it's safe!"
Shen Xingchen's words fell, and the tears in the bead curtain fell in her eyes, and she said apologetically while crying: "That's good, that's good, I was really scared to death just now, when I heard Mrs. speak, I almost turned around and kowtowed to admit my mistake, thanks to you." ”
Is this girl a rat guts?
The bead curtain wiped away his tears, lifted the curtain and stretched out his head to look back at the city gate that was getting farther and farther away, retracted his gaze and looked at Shen Xingchen and asked excitedly: "By the way, where are we going next!"
Shen Xingchen: "......" bead curtain can scare the people who can break the guts with a word, and she fooled out of Tongcheng County with a word. Yu Yu said, "Go to one of my relatives." ”
Zhu Curtain was surprised: "Xingchen, aren't you from this county, you still have relatives in other places, why haven't you heard me before." ”
There are still a lot of things you haven't heard of, Shen Xingchen's eyes suddenly dimmed: "Distant relatives." ”
The clatter of horses' hooves rang leisurely in her ears, and in the past two months, everything she didn't want to do was for today's parting. Shen Xingchen lifted the curtain and looked at the city gate, which had been blurred to the point that only one outline remained, and then it became an understatement, and finally disappeared completely. Farewell, farewell, the memory left to her by Tongcheng County is not very good, she has to be forced by the situation, the undercurrent is turbulent, and the repeated parting, in just over two months, Shen Xingchen has experienced all the thrilling experiences of her life. So I can't talk about reluctance, but my heart is still a little heavy, and I can't tell whether it's sadness or regret.
Out of the city gate all the way to the west, at the beginning there were still three or two people's houses, a little farther away is the endless mountain forest feldspar, deserted, no birdsong, only listen to the wind blowing through the whistling of leaves, the air carries a strong smell of dampness. Shen Xingchen observed his surroundings and looked at the heavy clouds rolling in the sky, so he had to urge the groom to speed up his progress and find a safe place to stay before it got dark.
The forest is already a place with a high risk index, not to mention the poisonous ants, snakes and insects that have been stuffed for several days.
Uncle Ma waved his whip vigorously, but he didn't expect a person to suddenly burst out of the grass next to him
, thanks to its quick reaction, the reins pulled the horse's nose painfully, it raised its front hooves with a long neigh, its nose whirring, I don't know whether it was tired or hurt, or it was also frightened like the people present.
"How did you walk, you didn't want to die, and you actually hit the carriage. ”
Uncle Ma was frightened, and the stern tone of the five big and three thick men completely drowned out his honest temperament, the man got up from the ground, picked up the bows and arrows scattered on the ground one by one, inserted his backhand into the feather tube behind him, and began to apologize to him: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the weather is too gloomy, I didn't notice the movement here." ”
After sorting out all this, he looked up to reveal a dark but skinny face covered with ravines, and said quietly: "It's going to be dark and rainy this day, and there is no shop in front of the village, and the forest at night is too dangerous." ”
The heart in the carriage was undecided, Shen Xingchen opened the door curtain, saw the person clearly, and was surprised to find that his age, body shape, and the horseman did not get along much, and even the skin color was very similar, although the facial features were plain, but the temperament of the body was completely different, and when I went to that station, I thought about the two majestic and arrogant stone lions at the door of Luo's house.
Shen Xingchen raised his eyes and smiled: "Are you a hunter on this mountain?"
The man looked up at Shen Xingchen expressionlessly and nodded: "Indeed." ”
Shen Xingchen let out a long sigh and took the initiative to laugh: "You are the hunter here, there must be a place to rest and spend the night, seeing that it is dark and rainy, I don't know if the uncle can help." ”
The bead curtain on his side hurriedly pulled Shen Xingchen's sleeve, looked at the Orion with some fear in his eyes, and then turned his head to squeeze his eyebrows at her, expressing the doubts and fears in his heart.
Shen Xingchen didn't pay attention to her, and only looked at the Orion, who frowned lightly and finally nodded, turned around and led the way in front.
"Grand Prince, are we going to follow that strange Orion?"
Shen Xingchen spread his hands helplessly: "It's rare that people are still willing, keep up." ”
Uncle Ma listened and waved his whip and followed the man, and after a quarter of an hour he reached his destination. As soon as the group entered the house, the rain fell all over the world. The so-called resting place is an independent thatched house, the house is not large, and it is all built of withered yellow thatch.
But fortunately, it is thick enough to at least withstand the rain.
The space was small, except for a shabby single bed, a crumbling small square table, a swarthy teapot and three cups of the same color.
"The place is small, let's sleep in the bed with the two little sons today. Orion took the initiative to propose, and everyone listened without speaking, which was unanimously agreed.
Shen Xingchen lay on the bed, listening to the sound of the rain, and opened his eyes to see the resting ears of the hunter on the other side. It was already completely dark, and there was a kerosene lamp lit in the room, and the candlelight was faint, but Shen Xingchen could still see the many different sizes and shapes hanging on the opposite wall, hooks, knives, claws with ropes, how novel the shapes were, Shen Xingchen still summed up what they had in common, the same bad deeds, it seemed that they had not been used for a long time.
Shen Xingchen was lying on the side of the bed, his scrutinizing gaze fell on the body of Orion opposite, his entire back was pressed against the wall, his legs were slightly arched, his hands were on his knees, and he was carrying a pitch-black feather tube with a large number of feather arrows in it.
"Actually, this uncle doesn't look like a good person, but he's actually a good person, right? ”
The words of the bead curtain suddenly sounded in his ears, and Shen Xingchen laughed inexplicably: "Maybe." ”
