Chapter 15: The Lost Little Girl (I)
As soon as Panlou's Qixi Festival activities ended, there were bursts of thunder in the sky. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The tens of thousands of spectators who had not yet finished the show downstairs and the hundreds of thousands of tourists in the surrounding "Qiqiao Market" suddenly pushed and crowded and ran home.
Liu Yong, who was carried by the crowd and didn't know where to go, soon separated from Mu Xun, Yang Zhang and others who were traveling with him.
When the crowd looked a little looser, Liu Yong struggled out of the gap in the crowd and turned into a remote alley.
Unlike the bright lights on the streets, the alleys are lit only slightly at the ends of the alleys, and the rest of the alley is blocked by the tall courtyard walls on both sides, revealing only a dark and gloomy sky.
A drop of rain fell on Liu Yong's face. Liu Yong took a few steps into the alley, wanting to go out from the other end of the alley, go back to Mu's Restaurant, or find a place to shelter from the rain first.
When he was about to reach the other end of the alley, the rain suddenly became heavier, and just as Liu Yong was pondering where to take shelter from the rain, a slight sobbing sound came.
Liu Yong walked over and saw that it was a little girl about the same age as himself.
Liu Yong didn't think much about it, so he wanted to pull her to hide under the gate of a house not far away.
The little girl subconsciously dodged it.
"It's raining heavily, hurry up and take shelter from the rain, you'll get sick if you get wet."
Liu Yong said anxiously, and pulled it again, this time it stopped.
"There are dogs in the yard... Will be called......"
The little girl was dragged under the gate by Liu Yong, and said timidly, with tears in the corners of her eyes.
Sure enough, there was a vicious dog barking from behind the gate, and he wanted to come out and bite Liu Yong and the two of them.
Liu Yong was taken aback, but immediately found that the door lock was dead, and the vicious dog couldn't come out at all, so he relaxed his heart, avoided the crack in the door and stood close to the door, and secretly scolded the vicious dog in his heart:
"This ghost is still lying on his stomach in the nest in the weather, and it is scary to run out. If I were your master, I would have cooked you and eaten it. ”
Seeing that the little girl on the side was still standing outside with half of her body in the rain and didn't dare to approach the door, she pointed to the door lock and said with relief: "Don't worry, it can't come out, see that there is a lock on it." ”
The little girl saw that the vicious dog had not rushed out of the door for a long time, and some believed Liu Yong's words, so she leaned closer to Liu Yong's side.
After a while, the rain stopped and the moon reappeared in the sky.
"What the hell has it been in for a quarter of an hour? Net toss people! ”
Liu Yong scolded. Then he kicked the door behind him hard, jumping the vicious dog inside the door.
Then, in the more ferocious howl of the vicious dog, he took advantage of the moonlight to tidy up the clothes that had just been messed up when he was crowded in the crowd.
"Which way are you going?"
Liu Yong returned to the alley from under the gate, saw the little girl standing motionless, and asked.
The little girl didn't say a word, her head was lowered, her hands were clenched, and half of her body, which had just been wet by the rain, was obviously a little chilly when the night breeze blew it.
Liu Yong sighed, took off the gown on his body, and put it on the little girl. The little girl glanced up at Liu Yong, and there was some surprise in her eyes, but then she lowered it again.
"Did you just get lost in the crowd?"
Liu Yong thought about his situation and asked. In fact, Liu Yong is not lost, at best, he is separated. As an "old Kaifeng person" who grew up here, as long as he can walk back on the road, he can find his way home.
"Yes."
The little girl nodded slightly and said softly.
"Where is your home?"
The little girl bowed her head again and did not speak.
"And what's your name? My name is Liu Yong, the willow of the willow tree, the Yong of Yongzhou, En, it is the Yongzhou of Guangnan West Road. ”
“......”
"Why don't you speak?"
"My mother... My mother said that a girl's name can't be said to others casually. ”
Liu Yong was speechless for a moment, grabbed his hair hard, and then asked
"Where did you get lost? Well, or where were you just now? ”
"I was just in Panlou with my sister, and I saw a candy seller, so I went to buy it... And then it rained......"
Liu Yong finally understood, it turned out that this little girl was the same as herself, watching from Pan Lou. As a result, it rained, and I was dragged here by the crowd.
"Then let's go back to Panlou."
Liu Yong thought about the reason for the matter and asked.
The little girl nodded and followed behind Liu Yong.
Out of the alley, Liu Yong looked around, and saw the city gate not far away, with the old Cao Gate written on it. Liu Yong secretly said that it was so dangerous, and he was almost wrapped out of the inner city.
After identifying the direction, Liu Yong reached out to take the little girl's hand, for fear that she would be lost again.
The little girl subconsciously avoided it, but then gave up again.
At this time, with the help of the lights on the street, Liu Yong saw the appearance of the little girl clearly.
I saw that she was wearing a white lotus bandeau embroidered with pale pink, a semi-wet goose-yellow embroidered short gown on the outside, and a beige gown on the outside, a flower-dragging skirt tied around her waist, and a beaded hairpin pinned to her hair. The skin is better than snow, the eyes are like a pool of clear water, and when looking forward to it, there is an elegant and elegant temperament, and at the same time there is some fear, which makes people can't help but want to pity. It's really a beautiful embryo!
Of course, at Liu Yong's age, I can't think about it so much, but I just think that the little girl in front of me is very cute, and a little familiar, as if I have seen it somewhere.
Liu Yong took the hand of the cute little girl and walked towards Pan Lou, and there were more than half of the tourists on the road, but there were still a lot. Many stall owners who didn't have time to close their stalls saw that it was sunny, so they continued to put them up.
Liu Yong spent most of the night watching the "performance" at Pan Lou, "Qiqiao City" didn't go much shopping, I wanted to come to Brother Xun and Brother Xun They also went back to the restaurant, and they couldn't lose it, so they slowed down along the way, and stopped and went as a night market.
When you walk to the cross street, due west is the Donghua Gate, which is the place where the spring list is released.
At the corner of the street, Liu Yong saw a stall selling "floating on the water", like most stalls selling knick-knacks, only a thick layer of linen cloth was spread on the ground, and some yellow wax carved geese, fish and turtles, mandarin ducks and other colorful waterfowl were scattered on it, all of which were painted and embedded with gold threads.
Liu Yong ran forward, and the "Qiqiao City" had been carried out for most of the time, and most of the things on the stalls had been reduced. Liu Yong squatted in front of the mat for a long time, he wanted a white eagle, which was what he saw in Xiangguo Temple that day. It's a pity that it has already been sold out, so I have to choose a wild goose with dissatisfaction. When she was about to pay, she found the little girl behind her, patted her forehead, and asked her to choose one too.
The little girl hesitated, then pointed to a pair of mandarin ducks.
Liu Yong picked one up and was about to pay, but was told by the stall owner that the mandarin ducks were not only sold, but only sold in pairs. Liu Yong pursed his lips, feeling that he was pitted by the little girl behind him, and secretly said that the little girl would really pick expensive to buy. I stupidly took out the money I could buy three geese and bought the pair of mandarin ducks and stuffed them into the little girl's hands.
The little girl's eyes lit up, and her big watery eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, which was very beautiful.
