Chapter 13: The Heroes of the Past Save Beauty 2
I turned my head and accidentally noticed that the corner of the man in Tsing Yi's mouth twitched slightly. Leaning against the woman's chest, I felt her breathe a sigh of relief. This small inn is their territory. Who are they? A little er in an earthy yellow coarse cloth coat stood at the door and greeted him courteously: "Guest officer, is it a tip or a hotel?" "Stay in the hotel." Tang Zhong said lightly.
"How many rooms, what room?" Xiao Er rubbed his hands together and led the two into the hall. "One room, lot number room. The window looks out of the tree and the house is spacious. "Okay!" Xiao Er tuned his voice and sang loudly, "Shopkeeper, three people live in a hotel, a local number room!" "I was carried into a room at the westernmost end of the second floor, and I saw the woman throwing Shi Yi on the bed. With a wave of his hand, the curtain fell, blocking Shi Yi's view. Only a babbling sound was heard, and the door was gently shut. "Little Artemisia has seen the hall master." This is the voice of the shopkeeper. It seems that this is really their place.
"Sixth, have they been here?" Tang Zhong's voice was low and deep, and he looked very majestic. "The sixth master and the tenth girl had successfully crossed the border the day before yesterday." The sound of the stool rattling sounded, and the woman sighed softly: "Third brother, it's a fast dry road." ”
"No hurry, there are still three days left until the delivery time." Hearing the sound of pouring water, I couldn't help but lick my chapped lips, so thirsty.
"Little Artemisia, are the carriages and horses ready?"
"If you go back to the hall master, you were ready yesterday, and you can leave tonight. The Qianzhou side has also been greeted, and someone will come to answer when they arrive. ”
has set up a number of secret sentinels in the territory of Youguo, it seems that it is really a big organization. If you think about it, there must be something wrong with the incense. The girl closed the doors and windows quietly before leaving, just to give full play to the medicinal effect of the group. In this case, all this is a treacherous scheme.
But who are these people? Who are they? Is it a bandit? Or a soldier? Where is Qianzhou? Why did you take such a big risk to tie me up? Also, is the mother in their hands or not?
The more I think about it, the more confused I become. All this must be a conspiracy, yin me, who do you want to plot? There are thousands of clues entangled in my brain, calm down, think carefully, peel off the cocoon, and see that I am about to approach the answer. The curtain of the bed was abruptly pulled open, and the train of thought was interrupted.
"Little girl, you're hungry." Nineteen looked at me with a smile and reached out to pick me up.
The forehead rested against her chin, and the skin on her face felt dry, astringent, and strange. Squinting her eyes, looking up, she suddenly noticed that there was a faint linear in her jaw, could it be that she had changed her face? His eyelids twitched, and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva: it seems that they are people in the rivers and lakes.
When I came back to my senses, I found myself in the lobby on the first floor of the inn. Nineteen hugged me and sat down slowly, nodded my lips as if doting, and beckoned to the guys in the store: "Little Er, come to a pot of tea." ”
"Okay~"
"Third brother, you see Qing'er's mouth is dry." Nineteen patted me lightly on the head and whispered softly, "Let's have some pasta in the evening, it's cheap and hungry." ”
"Okay, it's up to the lady." Tang Zhong swept away the gloomy coldness just now, smiled warmly, and was warm, "Man, let's have three bowls of dry noodles." ”
"Well, wait a minute."
I was poured a cup of tea and fed a bowl of noodles, and I felt a lot heavier in my stomach and better spirits. Licking his mouth, he began to look around. The sky is getting darker, the lanterns outside the inn have been lit at some point, and the hall is full of people. How can we help ourselves right under their noses? You know, after tonight, when you get into the carriage, I'm afraid it will be difficult to escape. As soon as he closed his eyes, he raised his eyebrows and began to shake his head.
Nineteen pinched my chin, his fingertips strengthened, but his voice was extraordinarily soft: "What's wrong?" ”
I pouted, my lips slightly open, and I silently uttered three words: my stomach hurts.
Nineteen narrowed his eyes, his gaze wandering over my face for a long time. After a while, he raised his eyes and looked at Tang Zhong: "Third brother? ”
He didn't smile, he touched my head gently, and looked at Nineteen with blazing eyes: "Go, the lady has to take care of Qing'er." ”
"Don't worry~" Nineteen smiled faintly, picked me up and walked to the back of the hall.
Standing outside the thatched house, a lamp hung on the eaves, emitting a faint light. Leaning on Nineteen's shoulder, convinced that she couldn't see my facial movements, her eyes widened and she stared at the old man in the back. The old man, who was still looking up at the sky at first, seemed to sense my gaze and lowered his head in a daze.
At the last chance, I stared straight at him with wide eyes, my lips fluttering widely: "Help me!"
The old man tilted his head, looked at me inexplicably, and smiled for a while. Really, he didn't get it at all! Anxious and afraid, tears fell. Looking at him in horror, he opened his mouth wide again: Help me! Save me! Save me!
The old man seemed to understand, his beard shaking, and his eyes widened and fixed on my lips. Don't miss the opportunity and come again, and speak silently again: Help me!
He pointed to the back of Nineteen's head and frowned. I shook my head gently, tears flowed into my mouth, I felt a bitterness, and I opened my lips in despair: Help me!
The old man pursed his lips and walked around to Nineteen tremblingly: "You, let this child go!" ”
Nineteen changed his position and hugged me across his chest: "Old man, what are you talking about?" ”
"This kid isn't yours!" The old man trembled angrily and shouted, "Someone! Someone! ”
Nineteen lowered his head, glanced at me coldly, and snorted lightly: "Old man, if you can't hold back and want to go first, you can say it directly, why do you want to say such things to arrange people?" ”
Ignoring the thirty-seven twenty-one, I put my head against her breast, and leaned on the strength of my neck, arching my body, trying to break away from her restraints.
"Choreographer? Look at this kid who doesn't want you at all! Finally met a warm-hearted man, the old man stood there unrelentingly, stomped his feet, and shouted at the top of his voice, "Come on, there are kidnappers and traffickers here!" ”
Hearing the sound of chaotic footsteps, a glimmer of hope rose in my heart. looked at the old man gratefully, and moved his lips silently: Thank you.
"What's the matter? What's up? It turned out to be the voice of the shopkeeper behind him, his eyes widened, and his heart was shocked: Could it be that there is no one else here? No, there's the guy in the hut, and there's the last ray of hope.
With a babbling sound, the wooden door opened, and looking into the door expectantly, the shopkeeper of the inn walked out slowly with a smile. I looked at him in a daze, and my heart suddenly went cold.
"You two came just in time." The old man pointed to Nineteen and said unsteadily, "This woman is a child abductor!" ”
Collapsed in Nineteen's arms, he looked at him in horror and opened his mouth wide: Hurry up! Come on!
The old man nodded to me and cast a reassuring look. I still shook my head frantically, my eyes were hazy with tears, my throat was fluttering, and my lips kept moving: Hurry up! Come on!
Let's go, it's too late! They're in a group! I... I don't want to bother you......
There was a mist floating in front of him, and in his confusion, he saw the short and thin figure slowly fall, biting his lower lip in despair.
"Artemisia, make it clean." Nineteen spoke coldly, raising his foot over the corpse on the ground. I turned my head and felt cold tears falling from the corners of my eyes, the night was dark, the lights were dim, my body was like a tree, and my heart was like ashes.
Ignorance, unawareness, non-perception, and non-feeling. I don't kill Beren, but Beren dies because of me. It's all my recklessness, it's all my selfishness, and the soul of the warm-hearted old man who hurt him died.
Suddenly I felt a thump in my face, and I jerked awake. Looking blankly at Nineteen, whose jaw was tight, she stared at me through gritted teeth and said, "Little girl, it's quite cunning!" When he came back to his senses and looked around, he was back in his room.
As soon as he caught a glimpse of Tang Zhong pushing the door in, he felt another fierce fan on his cheek, his body flew up lightly, and his cheek hit the corner of the table heavily. A salty smell welled up in his mouth, and his gums ached hotly. He opened his lips and spat out a mouthful of saliva, and a tooth mixed with red blood spit on the ground, red and white tragically terrifying.
"Alright, Nineteen." Tang Zhong whispered to stop the angry woman.
I felt a heavy pinch on my face and a pain in my mouth. Frowning, raising his head, I saw Tang Zhong looking at me expressionlessly, and said coldly: "If we break the goods this time, we will go in vain." ”
After saying that, he raised his right hand and swung it down with force.
I felt soreness in the back of my neck, the world was spinning, and there was chaos in front of me. I know, I lost consciousness again.
In a daze, did you smell that faint fragrance again, the pith of the group? How to awaken perception, how to regain autonomy? I, like a lone bird with folded wings, fell to the ground helplessly. There were no stars and moons overhead, no lights around, only darkness that seemed to be about to be pressed overhead, so thick that I couldn't breathe.
