The ninth round: hurt the black clothes and save the snow goose again for friendship and go to Jinyang
As mentioned last time, Wang Xuance proposed to go to Luohe Town for a night's rest, and Xue Yan also accepted his proposal! Starting from Rencheng, it has been more than half a month now, and the guards are twenty or thirty; But those who should go, those who should flee, and today they almost died at the hands of the coachman; Looking back, she was the only one left, and she felt a little desolate! Fortunately, the road to heaven and earth met him at the most dangerous moment; All this seems to be an arrangement in the dark, and it seems to be God's attachment to himself. I saw the snow goose riding on the yellow horse, Wang Xuance slowly led the horse, and the two of them talked and laughed; Before I knew it, I had crossed the ferry and came to the town. Settle down in an inn called "Heluo Family"!
Looking at Wang Xuance, who was paying the bill, he only heard Xue Yan say shyly: "Thank you Wang Gongzi, after such a thing, I don't have any money on me, and when I get to Jinyang, I will definitely return all the expenses to Gongzi." ”
Wang Xuance returned with a smile: "The girl has seen everything outside when she said this, and it is a kind of fate to meet her; Why care about this? Hearing this, the snow goose was also quite grateful; After some pleasantries, they went back to their rooms to rest.
And this night is destined to be a sleepless night for some people. I saw that in the deep house of a tall compound, a bright oil lamp illuminated the house very brightly. A man in black was standing behind a richly dressed official with his hands behind his back facing the central hall. The coachman who escorted the snow geese was kneeling on the ground with his hands tied behind his back.
I only heard the man in black arch his hand and said: "Big brother, it was all the dereliction of duty of his subordinates, and this time Li Xueyan escaped." And the coachman who knelt on the ground was trembling, trembling and begging for mercy! In the face of such a scene, this gorgeously dressed man didn't bother to look at it, but only coughed, and said slowly, "Keep him and leave a handle for himself!" Although this sentence is plain and uneventful, it shows endless killing opportunities! As soon as he heard this, the man in black immediately understood what he meant, and saw that his hands were up and down, and the coachman had been cut off by him.
Listening to this scene, I saw this gorgeously dressed man, turning the walnuts with two unicorn pattern lion heads in his hands. In disappointment, he was a little excited and said to the man in black: "How many years, I always want him to feel the pain of this family's destruction, and I finally found such an opportunity, but you did it like this, it really disappoints me!" ”
"Brother Wanwang atons for his sins, I will definitely go all out in the second half of the journey" I saw that the man in black hurriedly knelt down with a pout, and said to him very guiltily!
"Well, that's the only way, although the master is unwilling to make a blatant enemy with them, but after all, she and the kid who saved her are left in the second half of the journey. If it really doesn't work, it's in a place where no one is around, and remember to do it in a place where no one is around! Don't let it slip out and cause trouble for me and my master, you know! ”
After listening to such a warning, the man in black even understood, received the order, and withdrew!
The story returns to the town of Luohe, where the first rays of the morning sun shine on the land, and as the sun rises, the smoke of the cooking stove has enveloped the town. The two had breakfast to replenish the dry food and change of clothes for the snow geese along the way, and Wang Xuance specially went to the horse market to select a fast horse to give to the snow geese. There is still a day's way to Jinyang and Chang'an, so the two of them go together; Looking at Wang Xuance with his heart, Snow Goose also sprouted a trace of warmth in her heart!
Although the autumn sun is not scorching, the noon sun also makes the mouth dry. Looking at the slightly tired snow geese, the two chose to rest under a big tree. After another half day of contact, the two people have developed a good impression of each other. Wang Xuance felt that Xue Yan was a good girl, and Xue Yan also felt that Wang Xuance was a reliable person; From strange to familiar, naturally we talked a lot and talked about it. From childhood anecdotes, to hometown customs, from catching fish and shrimp, to inadvertent troubles. From being punished by the master, to talking about the origin and the purpose of this trip, the two of you come and go, and I feel very warm.
When they had a good time. Suddenly, more than a dozen men in black flew down from a height. Wang Xuance saw that the situation was not good, and immediately pulled up the snow goose, and quickly pulled out the Qingyu sword from Huang Bi to protect it. The men in black couldn't help but say, and immediately raised their swords and stabbed the snow geese. Wang Xuance danced the Qingyu Sword, sometimes stabbing in the east, sometimes picking in the west, and a set of personal swordsmanship was not leaking, like a thick wall, blocking these black-clothed people from two feet away.
The leading one, seeing that Wang Xuance was young but good at swordsmanship, so he raised his sword to attack, but after two moves, Wang Xuance slashed his left shoulder with a sword, about two inches deep, and the shoulder meat flew up, like a child's open mouth of blood, and suddenly blood was all over his clothes, and he also had a trace of cowardice in an instant!
However, in the face of this final blow, they can only succeed and not fail, and these men in black who have a certain heart of death once again attack together; Because he had to take care of the snow geese, Wang Xuance gradually felt that his physical strength was exhausted. As soon as he didn't pay attention, he was cut through the sleeve of his shirt by a long sword.
said that it was too late, at that time, I saw another long sword stabbing towards the snow goose, Wang Xuance at the critical moment, he didn't care that he was already injured, and he sank into the sea with one move, and cut off the stabbing sword in an instant; The blade of the sword with the green sword slashed through the throat of the man in black, and he saw blood gushing out like a pillar; This sword once again blocked the idea of Xue Yan's life. Seeing the tragic death of their brother, these men in black inadvertently felt a little timid. Taking advantage of this gap, Wang Xuance pulled up the snow goose, flew on the horse, and left this dangerous place like this!
Wang Xuance took Li Xueyan all the way. The cut wound on her arm and the blood that poured out not only stained Snow Goose's clothes red, but also warmed her grateful heart. Looking at the man in black who did not chase him, the two of them rested temporarily in a secluded house. Xue Yan hurriedly took out the hemostatic medicine and carefully bandaged him quietly. Looking at the careful snow geese, Wang Xuance also felt a warmth in his heart! After bandaging the wound, Xue Yan said to him with deep apologies: "It's all my fault, I got infected with such an obscure thing, and I also let my son suffer!" ”
When Wang Xuance heard this, he immediately comforted Xue Yan mischievously: "This is nothing to be burdened or unburdened, people's lives, God is destined, all this is arranged by God, my life is big, don't worry, it's okay!" ”
Listening to his comfort, the snow goose instantly pear blossoms with rain, tears like rain, this is not only a tear of relief, but also a sad mood, happy to meet such a good big brother, sad is: to this day, it is still like a fog, I don't know who is going to kill her, and I don't know why they did it? At this moment, he just wants to rush back to Jinyang as soon as possible and return to his home!
Looking at the crying snow goose, Wang Xuance quickly comforted again: "Don't cry, don't cry, it's not good to look good if you cry!" Hearing him say this, Snow Goose suddenly "poofed" and turned into joy!
And after some careful searching, these men in black still did not find any trace of the two, so they had to return with a feather!
Unconsciously, it was another half-day, and the two of them wanted to say something, but they didn't know what to say! The sun sets, and the afterglow of the setting sun is sprinkled at the intersection of Jinyang and Chang'an, which is quite desolate. The separation is so difficult, and the hearts of the two people are inadvertently filled with an abnormal unease!
Looking at the haggard snow geese, Wang Xuance didn't know what to say; At this moment, his mind was not only thinking about her safety, but also thinking about this master's entrustment. According to the original purpose, he should go to Chang'an, but in the face of the loss of the recommendation, what else can he achieve when he goes to Chang'an?
And at this moment, the snow goose suddenly had a long-lost worry, worried that he was alone, how to go to Jinyang this time? Will he and I ever see each other again? All this is an inexplicable unknown! But he has already helped himself so much, people should be content, and they can't ask for anything more! Separation, after all, it was Snow Goose who opened her mouth first, and said goodbye slowly with a weak voice: "Thank you for saving Gongzi in the past two days; Farewell, although I don't know when I will be able to see my son again, but Xue Yan only prays in my heart for the health of my son! ”
Men's hearts are always fragile, and Wang Xuance was deeply moved by this inexplicable comforting words. This kind of memories and thoughts are churning in his mind, and at this moment he is like this in his heart: since he has gone to Chang'an, he has no clue; It's better for a good person to do it to the end, escort the snow goose back to Jinyang safely, and then turn back to Chang'an, wouldn't it be okay!
Thinking of this, he looked at the snow goose affectionately, and said to him sincerely: "Snow goose girl, I lost the letter of recommendation, and it doesn't seem too eager to go to Chang'an; The girl's journey is also full of dangers, rather than this, it is better to send the girl back to Jinyang safely for the time being, and I will plan for the future! Xue Yan heard Wang Xuance's words and promises, and looked at him with affection: "Is this true?" ”
I saw Wang Xuance slowly nodding to: "Hmm"
In this way, the two people are heart-to-heart. There is another pair of young people on the official road back to Jinyang. Just listen to what they say:
"Thank you Gongzi for everything you have done for the snow geese, and you will definitely thank Gongzi when you go to Jinyang"
"There is no thanks, as long as the girl is delivered safely, it is my greatest wish."
For several days, the two of them walked all the way, stopping and stopping, enjoying the scenery along the way, discussing trivial matters of life, and doing whatever they wanted. Of course, in Wang Xuance's casualness, he is naturally a little more vigilant; Although these days have been safe and sound, for the safety of the snow geese, they still hang twelve points of courage every day.
Sometimes, a little wind and grass makes Wang Xuance as vigilant as a frightened bird. Seeing that he is so vigilant every day, Snow Goose is also deeply moved by it! There is a chivalry in the integrity, and there is a little righteousness in the haoran; The girl's ignorant state of mind inadvertently sprouted an indescribable spark!
And in Wang Xuance's heart, he didn't have the slightest sense of all this. Although Xue Yan is a knowledgeable, gentle and elegant woman; But in his eyes, he just regarded this chance encounter as a casual experience in his life. He only treats her as a sister!
The two of them led the horse and walked slowly, Wang Xuance looked at the snow goose in a stupid daze, and then asked, "Snow goose girl, what are you thinking?" ”
This sudden question, the snow goose who asked was a little overwhelmed, smiled gracefully, and returned with a smile: "No, it's nothing" However, the words couldn't hide her thoughts at all, so she turned her mind and continued to return with a naughty tone: "I was thinking about what happened after I went home."
Looking at Xue Yan's changing expression, Wang Xuance also smiled and asked, "What happened after I went home?" What's the matter? ”
"I ...... At...... Thinking about what to eat, I suddenly wanted to eat my grandmother's noodles. ”
What is the noodle of the noodles? Wang Xuance was stunned for a moment, and for a moment, he didn't even know how to write these words, but since Xue Yan said it, it must be a good delicacy. casually asked, "What kind of food is this, and how do you write these words?" ”
Hearing Wang Xuance's embarrassing question, I saw Xue Yan take his hand and write these words in the palm of his hand one by one.
When the snow goose's warm little hand pulls up his cold big hand. Wang Xuance's heart first "bang", and then a straight beat, this is the first time in so many years that a beautiful girl has held his hand so formally, he feels not only heartbeat, but also seems to be an indescribable warmth.
When the slender jade fingers of the snow goose gently swiped these words carefully in the palm of his hand, a tickling feeling rose from the bottom of his heart. At this time, he really didn't have the heart to feel how these words were written, what he felt was only the meekness and naturalness of women's skin.
Along with Wang Xuance's inner movement, Snow Goose also discovered some slight changes in his heart. When he finished writing these words, he quickly let go of his hand, and Wang Xuance also noticed the difference, and his face turned red. In order to ease the awkward atmosphere, Snow Goose immediately grimaced; The slightly tense air was diluted a lot in an instant. Immediately afterwards, he told him about the origin of this delicacy.
Speaking of this noodle and noodles, it really has a lot to do with the Li family. Looking at Wang Xuance, who was listening attentively, Xue Yan cleared her throat with a little smile, and said proudly: "In the last years of Emperor Wen of the previous dynasty, the emperor was frail and sickly, and the government was controlled by traitorous ministers. ”
looked at such a serious Li Xueyan. Wang Xuance forcibly held back the smile in his heart, and took advantage of her pause to interject: "In this paragraph, I heard Master say that Emperor Gaozu was only angry after he was demoted to the state!" Jinyang has also become the land of Longxing! Speaking of these, he seemed to have a little bit of understanding, the Snow Goose girl is also surnamed Li, and this trip is to Jinyang, is she a royal bloodline. But Xue Yan didn't say it, and he didn't want to ask, so he didn't know.
Hearing Wang Xuance receive this, Xue Yan immediately praised: "It's good, it's like this!" Then she said: "In this way, Emperor Gaozu brought more than 100 members of the Li family to this Jinyang; At that time, Queen Gao Dugu was pregnant with Liujia, when passing through Lingkong Mountain, because of the fatigue of the road, injured the fetus, about to give birth, had to stay in the Lingkong Mountain ancient temple Pangu Temple, and then gave birth to the son Li Yuanba, who is my fourth uncle. ”
Speaking of this, Wang Xuance's inner thoughts seemed to be confirmed, and he asked with a surprised expression: "You...... Fourth uncle, you ask...... Li Yuanba called the fourth uncle! He is my No. 1 general in the Tang Dynasty! That... So who are you? ”
"Yes, yes, he is my fourth uncle, my father is Li Daozong, the king of Rencheng, and the cousin of the grandfather of today," At this point, Wang Xuance understood that the person who had been escorting him all the way was actually the daughter of King Rencheng, the first county lord of the Tang Dynasty. No wonder he was chased and killed all the way, this seems to have formed some kind of grudge! Look at the snow goose with a hesitant and dull gaze!
Xue Yan looked at his stupid expression, and asked mischievously again: "Alas, alas, why are you stupid, are you listening?" ”
Let's take a look at Wang Xuance, who didn't react at all. He seemed to feel that he shouldn't hide it from him. In front of Wang Xuance's eyes, he turned around this little hand and said with an aggrieved expression: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have hidden this from you, shouldn't you alienate me because I am the current county lord!" At this time, Wang Xuance heard these words clearly, and with a smiling expression, he stammered back: "Why, how could it be, I just didn't expect that the person who traveled with me all the way was the county lord of the dynasty."
This made the snow goose giggle! looked at Wang Xuance who came back to his senses. Xue Yan went on to say: "Because of the birth of the fourth uncle, the whole family was stranded in the temple at that time, and when eating, the old abbot asked the kitchen to make a rare meal, only to see the little attendant, a piece of noodles "honeycomb" tube food to bring out. After using it, everyone was refreshed and strong. When my grandmother saw this scene, she was also very happy. With a refreshed state of mind, he asked if this meal had a name. ”
I only heard the old abbot say in detail that this is made of wheat noodles, which resembles a "honeycomb", so the local people call it "the nest of noodles". Subsequently, the grandmother asked the old abbot for such a recipe, and then it spread with the Li family's diet to the whole Noodle Restaurant in Bingzhou. Because it came from the hands of the great grandmother, the nest was renamed "莜面栲栳栳". ”
Speaking of the origin of this side, unconsciously, it aroused Wang Xuance's appetite, and he just wanted to rush to Jinyang as soon as possible at this moment to taste this unique food!
Life is sometimes like this, what should come comes suddenly, maybe opportunity, maybe kindness, or God's favor. In the first half of Wang Xuance's life, although he did not do anything earth-shattering, because of these encounters, as well as the things he encountered, and the stories he experienced, he laid a solid foundation for the rest of his life. It also wrote an immortal and wonderful chapter in his life.
On the long road of life, when you are lonely, such a person suddenly appears and walks with you all the way; If you take care of each other and communicate with each other, you will definitely feel much more relaxed and your mood will be very different from before.
