The sound of snoring mixed with the sound of rain, the wind was still hitting the wooden wall, so noisy that Su Jingchen couldn't sleep, he opened his eyes again, and suddenly found that Xie Chao was also awake, Xie Chao grabbed the cigarette pot, raised it to his mouth, and was about to point, and suddenly put it down again, he turned his head to look at Su Jingchen, and said, "What, can't sleep?" ”

Su Jingchen didn't say anything, just nodded slightly.

"How about it, would you like to hear my story?" Xie Chao suddenly said with a smile.

"You say, I'll listen."

Xie Chao put away the cigarette pot and moved a little towards Su Jingchen, he cleared his throat and spoke slowly, "I, I came to Yunzhou more than ten years ago, and my father and mother just died, so I thought about going outside to break through and break into the hall, that is also worthy of my dead father, if I die, then I will die, there is nothing to be sorry about." At that time, there was no mirage, I went to Yunzhou, took the road of Yunhaoshan, the road was dangerous, more than 20 people's horse gang, only to the border of Yunzhou, only half of it was left, that we will find the one who led the way, is a half-hanger, he collected the money, but he couldn't find the way, and drowned in the trap mire halfway, and now his body is afraid that it is still in that place, and he can't see the sun. ”

Xie Chao suddenly stopped again, he finally lit the cigarette gun, took a deep breath, the cigarette went through his internal organs, leaving a mark on his body, and then squirted out of his nose again, he smiled and said, "This mouthful, I originally heard the old man of Yunzhou Road say that he smoked it in order not to get damp, but now, I can't quit." ”

"Just like they drink?" Su Jingchen asked.

"Well, almost," Xie Chao nodded, and then continued to tell his story, "Later, our dry food was eaten, still, we didn't find a village, those bold brothers said to look for game, and then they never came back, the rest of the people were so hungry that they couldn't walk, in order to survive, they had to tear off the plants around them, stuffed them into their mouths indiscriminately, and then, they were poisoned, and the last few left, they all starved to death, only me, I secretly hid a little dry food in my arms, but I didn't dare to eat it before, I'm afraid that as soon as I eat, they will come up and grab it, there is no way, I only dare to tear a little bit quietly and put it in my mouth at night when they are asleep, and when it melts, I swallow it quietly, and when they don't move, and then I can't make a sound, I dare to take out the little bit of dry food left to eat, and it is also by that bit of dry food, I have lived two more days than them. ”

"It's ridiculous," Xie Chao suddenly laughed at himself, "When I went, I thought about dying and died, but when I was dying, I was scared and couldn't, I fought with the last bit of strength to ask for help, I kept shouting and shouting, my neck was hoarse, but still no one came, then I accepted my fate, I guess I had to die there." ”

Su Jingchen listened quietly, and suddenly remembered for no reason that when he was in Shen Shanyuan, the man who begged him to save him was probably the same despair.

Xie Chao paused for a moment, and then said, "But at noon that day, when the sun was at its strongest, a person suddenly appeared in front of me, I still remember his appearance, he was wearing a black robe, holding a cane in his hand, and carrying a bag on his body, he was so thin, but his hands were so strong." He is obviously a Zhongzhou person, but he seems to have been born to know the road, he took me with him, and found a Miao man in less than half a day

The village also saved me, I followed the gentleman, has been wandering in Yunzhou, where he goes, I will follow where, and then later, the mirage was suddenly built, the gentleman did not let me follow him anymore, but let me go to the mirage, let me wait for someone, and then take him to the place he wanted to go, I told the gentleman, but I don't know the way, the gentleman smiled and patted my head, said let me think about it, from then on, as soon as I close my eyes, the map of Yunzhou, or rather, the places I have been, It's going to come to my mind. ”

"Since that day, I have never seen that gentleman again, and I have never returned to Zhongzhou."

Xie Chao breathed a long sigh of relief, and took a deep puff of cigarette, as if he had spit out all the turbidity in his heart, he lowered his body, knocked on the cigarette pouch, and saw that Su Jingchen still didn't say a word, he felt that this young man was so boring, so he had to smile bitterly and shake his head, he was about to sit back in the original place, but Su Jingchen's voice came, "Then, who is the person who asked you to wait for that gentleman?" ”

Xie Chao sighed, shook his head and said, "I don't know, that gentleman didn't tell me." ”

"Didn't even tell you the name of that person?" Su Jingchen asked with a frown.

"No," Xie Chao still shook his head, "he would just say, 'You'll know then,' and nothing else." ”

Su Jingchen said in his heart, how do I feel that gentleman is lying to you......

"But the person you are talking about is a little similar to Mr. Xie," Su Jingchen said, suddenly glanced at Xie Chao, and added, "Let me come to the south of Mr. Xie." ”

"Okay, okay, go to sleep, the rain will probably stop tomorrow." Xie Chao didn't want to pay attention to this posterior who couldn't chat, so he turned over and slept with his clothes on his side.

As soon as Su Jingchen closed his eyes, the little leopard suddenly poked out a head from his arms, looked east and west, probed his brain, as if he was looking for something, Su Jingchen touched its head and asked softly, "What's wrong?" ”

The little leopard didn't bark, but suddenly sprang out of his arms, went to the door, and scratched the door again and again.

Su Jingchen hurriedly went over and picked it up, regardless of whether it understood it or not, and said with a wry smile, "What are you doing?" Everyone was asleep, and it was still raining outside. ”

But the little leopard didn't give up, and still had to break free from Su Jingchen's embrace, Xie Chao pouted on the side, turned over again, and pretended not to hear.

My Healing Game

Suddenly, Su Jingchen heard an ethereal voice, which flashed away, he thought he had heard it wrong, but the voice was getting closer and louder, and the little leopard in his arms also began to scream, as if it was echoing the voice.

As soon as Su Jingchen's hand was released, the little leopard suddenly broke free from his embrace, ran to the door, scratched the door again and again, Su Jingchen had no choice but to open the door, and said in his heart You are a little white-eyed wolf, I am sorry for feeding you so much delicious food these days, and I thought I had raised you, but I didn't expect you to run.

The little leopard stood at the door, the fine rain falling on its hair with the wind, and it stopped calling and stood in front of the door, quietly staring at the dense woods in the distance.

"Whew!"

A sharp and ethereal, but majestic cry suddenly pierced through the rain curtain

The sleeping guys all woke up in an instant, and they sat up and looked at each other, apparently not knowing what was happening, and a few of them were sleeping dead, even snoring.

"Over there, over there!" A fellow suddenly pointed out the door.

Everyone looked in the direction of his finger, but they only saw Su Jingchen's back.

"What are you doing, boy? A ghost screams in the middle of the night to scare Lao Tzu? Okay, Lao Tzu, I'm going to throw you out and feed those big worms now? A guy who didn't know the truth scolded loudly.

"No, stand up and look!" The guy who started talking said again.

Only then did everyone stand up, and then they saw the little leopard standing at the door, and someone laughed and scolded, "Is this little thing?" Can you make that kind of noise? ”

A bolt of lightning suddenly tore through the sky, casting a glimmer of light on the dark earth, and by that fleeting light, they could see clearly the leopard standing in the drizzle, it was a giant leopard with a body as fragrant as a horse, the silver drizzle fell on it, the wind gently blew its hair, and it stood quietly, but its green eyes made the people in the room dare not move.

Xie Chao stood behind Su Jingchen, looking at the perfect figure and muttered in a low voice, its figure was so noble, but with majesty, in his life, Xie Chao had never seen such a perfect creature again.

The little leopard suddenly jumped down the steps and ran towards the gray leopard, one big and one small, two leopards together, rubbing each other's bodies, letting out a kitten-like whimper, and then the tall leopard disappeared into the deep forest with the little leopard.

The people of the caravan breathed a sigh of relief, and they all sat down on the ground in unison, watching the people around them panting, and it seemed that no matter what, they would not be able to fall asleep again tonight.

"Old Xie," Shen Jin suddenly called Xie Chao, "What was that thing just now?" Lao Tzu has lived for so long, and it is the first time he has seen a leopard bigger than a tiger. ”

Xie Chao sat down slowly, and said angrily, "In this place of Yunzhou, there are still many things you haven't seen." ”

"Tell me what that thing is." The monkey coaxed again, "I don't think you know, right?" What else do you say about walking Yunzhou Road for more than ten years, it's a lie, right? ”

Xie Chao suddenly turned his head and glared at the monkey, but he didn't scold him, but the monkey was frightened by Xie Chao's eyes, he stepped aside and muttered in a low voice, "If you don't say it, don't say it, what are you fierce?" ”

Xie Chao lit his cigarette gun again and laughed, "Lao Tzu's words tonight are more than the sum of the previous Yunzhou Road all the way." ”

Xie Chao took a puff of cigarette, and without waiting for the cigarette to spit out, he said, "I've seen that thing, but I've only seen it once, and that was when I just walked Yunzhou Road, with that gentleman, I even, I touched it, and that feeling was a few points better than the thighs of the best girl in Yunmei." ”

"Can't you see it, you old thief still have this habit?" Someone scoffed.

Xie Chao didn't answer his words, "That thing, called the Wind Thunder Leopard, used to be the mount of the owner of the Wind Thunder Village, but I haven't seen them for more than ten years, and the legend is that the Wind Thunder Leopard's Wind Teeth and Thunder Teeth are taken from the Wind Thunder Leopard." ”

"It's as fast as the wind, it's like thunder, it's the wind thunder leopard." Xie Chao said again.
