Chapter 57: Flying Fox

Fate is really amazing.

It stands to reason that Chu Tianya and Meng De have only known each other for a few days, and there is still a thousand-year generation gap between them. But Chu Tianya got along with him very cordially, and his behavior was tacit. Chu Tianya was looking for him to ask for some souvenirs to bring back, so that he could make a deal in Yelu Yujian. Without waiting for Chu Tianya to speak, Meng De personally sent it.

Although it is not a valuable thing, it already shows that Meng De is sincere.

Originally, Chu Tianya said that he was going to leave tomorrow, but Meng De refused to let him go, so he must be forced to at least heal his injuries before leaving, and he could attend his wedding with Zhang Yimin. Chu Tianya explained the reason to him, and Meng Decai was very reluctant to allow him to leave. On the same day, he personally went to collect a batch of local products for Chu Tianya to take away, and arranged the carriage and horses overnight, and provided him with half a month's supply of healing herbs, and even prepared a stretcher for him, four Ding Zhuang who served and escorted him along the way, and also got a few precious horses to replace his legs.

Meng De's meticulousness and thoughtfulness of care moved Chu Tianya from the bottom of his heart. Although they are not siblings of the same mother, they are better than biological brothers. In Qingyun Castle, Chu Tianya seemed to feel the warmth of family affection.

In the evening, Meng De and his wife came to have dinner with Chu Tianya as usual, simmering medicine and packing for him.

The three of them talked and laughed at the dinner table, just like a family.

Zhang Yimin said it inadvertently, saying that in the afternoon she heard that Xiao Linglong and Jiao Wentong had a little dispute, and she listened to a few words out of curiosity. It seems that Jiao Wentong wants to take Xiao Linglong back to Qixing Mountain, and she is not allowed to stay outside and cause trouble; Xiao Linglong refused and insisted on returning to Taiyuan. It seems that Jiao Wentong is quite angry, Xiao Linglong is coquettish and tricky like a child, looking for Jiao Wentong to grind hard. In the end, Jiao Wentong agreed, but Zhang Yimin didn't know.

Chu Tianya couldn't help but be a little funny, imagining what kind of situation it would be like for the strict and indifferent Lord Xiao to be coquettish and play tricks?

"Brother, I can see that the relationship between you and this Lord Xiao is not ordinary." Meng De smiled, "I think the reason why she insisted on going back to Taiyuan is probably because of your relationship, right?" ”

"It's not." Chu Tianya said lightly, "You don't know Lord Xiao. She has her own set of principles for doing things, and once she recognizes something, even if it goes to the dark, she will stick to it. I don't know why she came to Taiyuan in the first place, as a liaison between Qixing Mountain and me. However, since she has taken this first step, she will inevitably persevere to the end. That's her style, and it doesn't need a special reason. ”

"What a woman with a lot of personality." Meng De smiled, "But in my opinion, only a stunning beauty like her who is outstanding and different is worthy of my brother!" ”

"Where!" Chu Tianya couldn't help laughing, "I'm an ordinary man, not as good as Seventh Brother thought." Besides, although there is a little tacit understanding between me and Lord Xiao, it can't be talked about the relationship between men and women. And I always feel that I'm ...... with her Unlikely. ”

"Why?" Mr. and Mrs. Meng asked curiously, "I think she is also very interesting to you!" ”

Chu Tianya shook his head with a smile, thinking about the "great plan for restoring the country" that Xiao Linglong once said. Although her plans still seem to be a boundless matter, let alone any conflict with herself. However, Chu Tianya faintly felt in his heart that this would be a barrier between the two of them, or a hidden danger.

"I couldn't tell for a while. In a word...... I don't think much of it, and I don't deliberately do anything. Just let a qiΔ“ go with the flow! ”

The Meng couple were naturally puzzled, and it was inconvenient to ask more, so they had to give up.

Early the next morning, Chu Tianya got up early as usual. After moving a little, I feel okay. Although you can't do strenuous activities yet, you should have no problem with your daily routine.

At this time, Xiao Linglong came to him.

"Are you ready? It's time for us to go. Xiao Linglong was concise and to the point.

"I have nothing to prepare, I can go at any time." Chu Tianya said, "It's you, did Second Brother Jiao allow you to go back to Taiyuan again?" ”

"You know?" Xiao Linglong wondered.

"I've heard a little." Chu Tianya smiled indifferently and said, "Actually, I've been thinking about a question. Lord Xiao, why did you come to Taiyuan in the first place as the liaison between Qixing Mountain and me? ”

"I know you've always had that question in your mind." Xiao Linglong said, "Actually, the reason is very simple, all the leaders in the cottage have something to do except me." I ate all day and had nothing to do, so I took the initiative to take such an errand. Moreover, Fourth Brother Bai said that I lacked experience in the rivers and lakes, and I was relatively unfamiliar with the people in the market. I went to the people to walk around and see the life style of the people of the Great Song Dynasty. So I brought Ada and Anu with me, and I also deliberately stayed in a small place like Fuxing Inn. It's just to broaden your horizons. ”

"I see." Chu Tianya nodded, "By the way, how is Anu's injury?" ”

"It hurts badly. The second brother wants to take him back to the cottage for a period of treatment and recuperation. Xiao Linglong said, "This time, for my sake, Ada ran to the internal injury and vomited blood, and Anu was seriously injured...... I was really guilty. It was precisely because my two attendants could not follow and protect me that my second brother did not allow me to go to Taiyuan again. Moreover, the war is about to break out, and he is afraid that I will be besieged in the city, so he forces me to go back to Qixing Mountain with him, and ask Fourth Brother Bai to contact you. ”

Chu Tianya smiled, "But he was still persuaded by you?" ”

"Of course." The corners of Xiao Linglong's mouth raised lightly and smiled charmingly, and she was a little proud, "If there is another person in the world who can bargain with Second Brother Jiao, that person must be a flying fox!" ”

"Flying fox? Nice name. Chu Tianya couldn't help laughing.

Xiao Linglong was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but smile, "This is what my relatives and friends around me called me when I was in Liao Kingdom before. Occasionally, the second brother also calls me that. ”

"Then let's goβ€”Flying Fox!" Chu Tianya said with a smile.

"I haven't allowed you to call me that." Xiao Linglong glanced at Chu Tianya, "Is that what anyone called?" ”

"Yes-Lord Xiao!" Chu Tianya smiled and said, "Don't delay your work, hurry up and have breakfast and go on the road, there are still a lot of things in Taiyuan City!" ”

After breakfast, Meng De and the men, women, and children of Qingyun Castle sent Chu Tianya and Xiao Linglong to each other. This time, Chu and Xiao helped Qingyun Fort solve the danger of annihilation and eliminated the opponent of the natural enemy, as if they had become benefactors here. Especially Chu Tianya, Zhang Tianya, who stabbed the invincible one-eyed on the battlefield with a weak attack, was worshiped as a hero by the people of the whole castle.

Ma Kuo took over the monk cave and became the big leader, and he was busy for days, but he also came to see him off today. Jiao Wentong has to deal with the aftermath, so he has to stay here for a while. Before leaving, he caught the flying fox and gave thousands of instructions, just like when a loving father was about to send his child out of the house.

Everyone sent a few miles of mountain road, and only then did they reluctantly stop and stay, watching the carriage gradually move away and disappear at the corner of the mountain.

Jiao Wentong stroked his long hair and looked at the car shadow in the distance, and said thoughtfully and leisurely: "In time, this son will become a great weapon!" ”

Meng De and Ma Kuo, who were nearby, listened and laughed tacitly without saying a word.

"Why don't you two speak, isn't Jiao wrong?" Jiao Wentong wondered.

Meng De and Ma Kuo both smiled and replied, "Second Brother Jiao's eyes are like torches, and he will definitely not look away." The two of us are both Chu Tianya's brothers, and of course we are happy to hear Second Brother Jiao praise him so much! ”

"Haha!" Jiao Wentong laughed, "Actually, just by looking at the two of you, you can know what kind of character he Chu Tianya is." As the saying goes, things gather by like, you two are both upright and upright heroes, Chu Tianya can be brothers with you, and your character is naturally not bad! ――Flying Fox is with him, and I can rest assured! ”

"Flying fox? ……”

Xiao Fei drove the car, followed by four Qingyunbao Ding Zhuang who were waiting along the way. Because of Chu Tianya's injury, the carriage did not go fast on the mountain road, slowly and leisurely, quite leisurely and leisurely.

The carriage of the folk pony carriage will naturally not be very luxurious and spacious. Chu Tianya and Xiao Linglong sat in the same carriage, almost side by side.

Along the way, the two did not talk too much, but maintained a tacit silence for a long time.

It's just that compared to the scene when they rushed to Xishan a few days ago, the mood between the two has changed very subtly.

The distance between hearts and minds, from familiar to unfamiliar, or from the end of the world to close at hand, is often only a matter of moments.

The carriage swayed, and Xiao Linglong seemed to be flying out of the sky, galloping with her mind. In her mind, the face of another man still came to mind. But why did he slowly become blurred? In the past, whenever I thought of him, love and hate were intertwined, which made Xiao Linglong entangled in every way. But now, that feeling is fading.

Inadvertently, Xiao Linglong turned her head to look at Chu Tianya, who was leaning on the board of the carriage and napping beside her.

"--Is it unforgettable, but the enemy will not be entangled for a few days?"

Chu Tianya suddenly opened his eyes, Xiao Linglong suddenly felt weak, and turned his face away in a little panic.

"Are you peeping?" Chu Tianya laughed teasingly.

"Boring!" Xiao Linglong was angry and funny, and her face was slightly red.

Chu Tianya closed his eyes and continued to nap. There was a smug and sly smile on the corner of his mouth.

Xiao Linglong glanced at him sideways, and was immediately embarrassed and annoyed, and scolded hatefully in her heart, "This man is really very cunning!" - No wonder the white-haired fox of the fourth brother said that Chu Tianya is the smartest and most scheming person I have ever met! ”

Leaving the fort early in the morning, at sunset, the carriage walked to Taiyuan City, just before the city gate was closed.

Because he entered the city from the south gate, Chu Tianya deliberately opened the window to take a look, and saw that the repair work of the city here had been completed. The original earthen walls were clad in bricks and stones, which gave them a new look and were heightened and reinforced.

It seems that Wang Yu is still grasping very tightly, and he did not ignore such a major event as strengthening the city defense because of the arrival of Yelu Yujian.

The carriage entered the city, and Chu Tianya, in order to avoid swagger, invited the four young men to go to the inn to stay by themselves, and only let Xiao Fei drive him and Xiao Linglong back to their homes.

He Bo carried a chair and held a bowl of tea, and sat at the gate, as if waiting for Chu Tianya to come back.

As soon as he saw the carriage stop at the door, Uncle He put down his tea bowl and limped up with a cane. His face was still the cynical and disrespectful smile of the past, and he said hehehe: "Young master, young lady, where are you back?" ”

Chu Tianya and Xiao Linglong are both funny, anyway, they are used to the old man being so poor, so they don't bother to refute.

It's just that his current honor really can't connect him with the madman who slashed seventy people one after another in front of Qingyun Castle!

He Bo and Xiao Fei carefully helped Chu Tianya into the house, and He Bo immediately went to cook and simmer medicine. Xiao Fei said goodbye and went to the inn to find his companion.

Xiao Linglong went into the kitchen and stayed for half an hour before coming out, and she didn't know if she was helping with the cooking or whispering to Uncle He. When she came back she brought a pot of brewed tea and sat there a little sullen.

"What's wrong, I was bullied by Uncle He again?" Chu Tianya said with a smile.

"It's not." Xiao Linglong frowned and shook her head, "I just can't figure it out, why Uncle He refuses to recognize my second brother?" ”

"Oh?" Chu Tianya blinked, "What is the special relationship between the two of them?" ”

"They are ......" Xiao Linglong stopped again and shook her head halfway through her words, "Forget it." Since Uncle He didn't want to recognize each other and didn't mention it to you, and my second brother didn't dare to bother him, I won't say moreβ€”let the old man have his plans! ”

The two were chatting, and a person came in at the gate, where he said loudly: "Uncle He, did Brother Chu go home today?" - How many days have it been, and I'm going to die in a hurry! ”

When Chu Tianya heard it, it was Wang Xun!
