Chapter 24 (183) Descending the Mountain
It seems that no one is expecting anything else...... Hanxue still writes the text T_T
PS: On the question of the age of the confinement child...... All right...... Han Xue didn't expect the official setting to be so small...... However, the life expectancy of people in ancient times was relatively short, and the age of twelve for girls is equivalent to the current sixteen years old (just Hanxue's personal feeling)...... So everyone thinks of Yue'er as a sixteen-year-old girl now...... (The same goes for the other characters...... It would be easier to understand that all other characters are older than the official setting...... Probably...... )
……
……
……
……
……
"The Mo family? Yes, yes! Yue'er immediately nodded happily. As for how to know that those people are from the Mo family, it's good to leave such a thing to Chu Yue~
"Hmm." Seeing Yue'er so happy, Chu Yue also showed a knowing smile, "Hurry up and eat." Prepare today, and we'll go down tomorrow. ”
"Hmm!" Yue'er nodded.
……
The next day.
"Yue'er, let's see if there are any things that need to be paid attention to before leaving, I'll go and deal with some things."
"Huh?" Yue'er looked at Chu Yue strangely, "Sister Chu Yue......"
"Heh, hehe......" Chu Yue smiled unnaturally, "Well...... Check it out, old friend. ”
Knowing what Chu Yue meant, Yue'er nodded.
Back in the mountains, Chu Yue walked along the familiar path that was now almost overgrown with grass for a while, and saw the two familiar tombs.
Because they have not been taken care of for a long time, both tombs are overgrown with unknown weeds and wildflowers.
After hesitating for a moment, Chu Yue walked to the two tombs and began to clean up the flowers and plants on the tombs.
"Little Hime...... I'm sorry I haven't seen you for so long. Chu Yue said as she cleaned up, "Today, I decided to leave again." ”
"Well...... A lot has happened since the last time I came back......"
"I've cultivated my divine power, but the quality is too poor, compared to my previous divine power. As a result, I still can't go back to my original world. ”
"Well, that's better. I haven't had enough of this world here, so I always feel a little sorry for myself when I go back like this. ”
"By the way, you know that too, right? Yue'er's child has grown up now. ”
"Sensible and obedient, what a good boy."
"Speaking of which, I still hide something from Yue'er...... Forget it, I'll tell her when I need it anyway. Telling her now is not good for her. ”
"What about myself...... I don't know when I will be able to restore my divine power to my original ability. I experimented with it yesterday, and I couldn't even open it...... Alas...... I have a lot of things in my temple, and it's a hassle to not be able to store and take them out at any time. ”
"It's been so long, and our flower fields have grown a lot, and now I'm afraid it's true that there are not many people in this world who can come up."
"The last person who came was Wei Zhuang...... Oops, forget you didn't know him. Hawkers, I don't like him either, so I won't mention it. Now it is estimated that those who can go up to Xianyi Mountain probably won't have time to come back. ”
After cleaning up the flowers and plants on Ji Xian's tomb, Chu Yue then began to clean Ji Yan's tomb.
"Ji Yan...... It's been so long, if you can see it, you should be quite unhappy, after all, the world is still quite chaotic now. ”
"Although the Qin State is unified, Yingzheng is not good to the people......"
"Well, don't worry, everything is going in a good direction. The people in the future will have a good life. ”
"My own business...... Hehe, it's a bit of a hassle, but it's going to get better. ”
……
After the Leisure Pavilion.
"Sister Chu Yue?" Seeing Chu Yue coming back, Yue'er came over.
"Are you all ready?" Chu Yue asked.
"Hmmm! You're ready to go! Yue'er said with a smile.
"Hmm." Chu Yue nodded and walked towards the Xianyi Pavilion.
After checking it again, Chu Yue also felt that it was almost there, and walked towards the bottom of the mountain with Yue'er.
……
The reason why Yue'er went down the mountain when she was twelve years old was in Chu Yue's memory, when the plot of Qin Shi Mingyue began, Yue'er seemed to be twelve years old. In other words, if you go down the mountain now, it should be just in time to catch up with the plot of Qin Shi Mingyue's first step of the hundred-step flying sword.
Xianyi Mountain was originally within the territory of the Qin State, whether it was before or after the unification of the Qin State. After going down the mountain, Chu Yue took Yue'er to change her clothes first.
Of course, Chu Yue's own clothes were still the ones he wore when he crossed over. That set of clothes is produced by Alaye, and the quality is absolutely no problem~
And when Chu Yue brought Yue'er to Xianyi Mountain, she was in too much of a hurry and didn't bring clothes, so for so long, Yue'er had been making do with Chu Yue's clothes in Xianyi Pavilion from many years ago. Yue'er didn't say anything, and Chu Yue herself was a little upset.
And when she heard that Chu Yue was going to buy clothes for herself, Yue'er was of course so happy that she almost pushed Chu Yue down again......
Yizhuang.
"Ah, welcome!" Seeing someone coming in, someone immediately came over to greet Chu Yue and Yue'er, but seeing that Chu Yue and Yue'er were just little girls, the person immediately said impatiently, "Go, go!" The little ones are playing while they go! Don't mess with it! ”
"......" Chu Yue was speechless for a while.
"You!" And when she heard that someone was so disrespectful to Chu Yue, Yue'er immediately wanted to get angry, but seeing that Chu Yue didn't care, thinking that Chu Yue had been like this for so long, she should be used to such things, so Yue'er didn't say anything.
"Boss, we're here to buy clothes." Chu Yue said, "We will pay for the silver." ”
"Oh?" Hearing Chu Yue's words, the boss looked at Chu Yue again, "Look at your clothes...... Aren't you from the Central Plains? ”
"Uh...... I am. But the clothes are not for me, they are for her. Chu Yue said and looked at Yue'er, "Trouble boss, take the clothes she can wear, we will pay, don't worry." ”
Feeling that Chu Yue didn't speak like a child, and was promised that he would definitely pay, the boss went to get the clothes suspiciously.
"Sister Chu Yue...... You won't ...... You've been treated like this all the time, right? After the boss left, Yue'er asked Chu Yue.
At this time, even Yue'er was a little taller than Chu Yue. However, Chu Yue's mature temperament did not make such a picture seem strange.
"Take a look." The owner of the clothing village took out a few girls' clothes, "These are all good materials." ”
Chu Yue looked at these clothes, they were all similar in shape, but the colors were different. And it looks ordinary, naturally the clothes worn by ordinary civilians.
"Yue'er, what do you think?" Chu Yue asked Yue'er next to her.
Yue'er had always lived in the palace of Yan Kingdom when she was a child, and her previous clothes were naturally countless times more gorgeous than the clothes in front of her. However, the life of these years has long made Yue'er develop a poor life, and she is naturally not picky about clothes or anything.
"Well, they all look beautiful!" Yue'er said.
Chu Yue stepped forward and touched her clothes, frowned and said, "Boss, this clothing is not good, right?" ”
"Who said that? It's a great piece of clothing! The boss pretended to be stupid.
"Ahem...... "Ahem," Chu Yue sweated again, "This feeling is obviously ordinary clothing, we may need to walk a long way, let's get some good clothing." ”
“…… Yes, you have to go a long way? Well...... Wait. In fact, when Chu Yue said that he found out that it was ordinary clothing, the boss already knew that he couldn't deceive Chu Yue, and then quickly found an excuse to go back and get better clothes.
When he came out again, the boss had several other clothes in his hands.
"This time the clothes are really good." The boss said, "This little girl...... Look? ”
Chu Yue walked to the clothes, touched them again, felt the same, and turned around and asked Yue'er, "Yue'er, what do you think...... Yue'er? ”
"Huh?" Yue'er, who was standing aside and seemed to be paying attention to something, turned around and hurriedly ran over, "That...... It's all good, Sister Chu Yue, just help me choose. ”
"Is it......" Chu Yue said this, but she didn't pay attention to the clothes on the boss's hand anymore, and looked at the place where Yue'er was distracted.
"Well, boss, we don't want any of that." Chu Yue said with a smile.
"Huh?"
"That's it!" Chu Yue pointed in the direction where Yue'er ran over and said, "That's it!" ”
The clothes that Chu Yue was referring to were those displays that Yizhuang had hung up around. The clothes on display are generally some clothes customized by the nobles of the kings and grandchildren, and it took a lot of effort to display them in terms of clothing and design. These clothes, of course, are much better than those clothes that the bosses took out.
"Huh? That one?! I didn't expect Chu Yue to choose that one, the boss was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Little girl...... That one......"
"I know." Chu Yue interrupted the boss, took out some silver and said, "These should be enough, right?" ”
Seeing that Chu Yue took out so much silver so casually, the boss immediately smiled, "Enough is enough!" Little girl, oh no, miss, wait a minute, you'll be right here! ”
"Sister Chu Yue?!" And Yue'er saw that Chu Yue had decided like this, and looked at Chu Yue with some surprise.
"If Yue'er likes it, just say it." Chu Yue looked at Yue'er with a smile and said, "It's not very expensive." There's no need to save money in these places. ”
It turned out that Yue'er was standing there and was distracted when she saw a pale red dress. The clothes that Chu Yue was referring to were naturally the pale red skirts.
Immediately, the boss took out a dress that was exactly the same but looked just right for Yue'er, "Miss, how about you take a look at this one?" ”
Chu Yue looked at the clothes, touched them again, felt good, and said to Yue'er, "Yue'er, give it a try." ”
This dress seems to be designed for some nobles when they go out, and it looks looser, so it won't be so troublesome to act, and the expected quality is of course good, and it's really a good clothes for Yue'er now.
"This ...... May I? ”
"Of course!" Chu Yue said, "The money has been paid, Yue'er, you should try it quickly." ”
"Hmm...... Well! ”
Yue'er walked into the fitting room at the back with her clothes, and it didn't take long for her to change her clothes and walk out.
The pink dress, the red lace, and the lace edge of the skirt, plus the natural beauty and shy expression of Izuki'er, one word: beauty!
Even the boss who came out with his clothes at the beginning was stunned......
"Ahem......" Chu Yue coughed a few times.
"Ahh......h......h This young lady is so beautiful! ”
Chu Yue smiled, didn't say anything more, and asked Yue'er, "How does Yue'er feel?" ”
"It's ...... Very good......" Yue'er said, "then, that...... Sister Chu Yue, I think ...... How? ”
"Hehe......" Chu Yue threw herself on Yue'er with a smile, hugged Yue'er's neck and said, "My Yue'er is the most beautiful~!" ”
"What, how can there be......" Yue'er immediately blushed and said, "Sister Chu Yue is also very beautiful!" It's ......"
"That's it?"
"I've always seen Sister Chu Yue wearing this dress, and I've never changed it."
"Hehe, isn't this one beautiful?" Chu Yue said with a smile.
"Beautiful! Of course it's beautiful! Yue'er first said so loudly, and then whispered, "But, but...... If you don't change it all the time......"
"Well, don't worry about this little thing!" Chu Yue said with a smile and pulled Yue'er to walk outside.
The two young ladies walked slowly...... Welcome to come back next time! Chu Yue and Yue'er walked out of Yizhuang, and the boss hurriedly shouted behind.
……
Originally, Chu Yue planned to go to Shao Si Ming first, but thinking that the current Yue'er was still a little repulsed by the Qin State, and going directly to Xianyang might make Yue'er unhappy, so Chu Yue decided to go to the old couple first-the old couple that Chu Yue had handed over Tianming to their foster care at the beginning.
"Sister Chu Yue, where are we going?" Yue'er asked.
"Go find a former child." Chu Yue said with a smile.
"Little friend?" Yue'er asked strangely.
"Well...... Yue'er, do you know Jing Ke at the beginning? Chu Yue said.
"Uncle Jing Ke?!" Yue'er asked in surprise.
"Yes." Chu Yue nodded, "Actually, Jing Ke also has a lot of stories......
Then, Chu Yue told Yue'er about Jing Ke, Gai Nie, and Liji.
"I don't know what happened in the first place...... Now I don't just know how Liki is. Chu Yue said with some emotion.
"That...... Sister Chu Yue ......" Yue'er hesitated for a moment and asked, "Since that Tianming used a charm to call Sister Chu Yue over, why didn't Li Ji directly ask Sister Chu Yue to take the two of you away, but just let Sister Chu Yue take you away Tianming?" ”
"I don't know what Liji is thinking," Chu Yue said, "But, I guess, it's probably because Liji knows Yingzheng too well." ”
"Do you know Ying Zheng too well?"
"Ying Zheng may really like Tianming, but compared to Tianming, I think Ying Zheng may care more about Li Ji. I don't know the specific situation at that time, but I think it should be Yingzheng who promised Liji to let Tianming go. If I had escaped with Liji and Tianming, Liji probably knew that Yingzheng would never let them go. I can't always stay with them and protect them. If he is caught by Yingzheng's subordinates, not only Liji, but even Tianming will be harmed by Yingzheng. ”
"That's it......" Yue'er nodded, and then said angrily, "Yingzheng, this big villain!" Not only Uncle Jing Ke, but also Aunt Liji! Even Uncle Jing Ke's children are not spared! ”
"Well......" Chu Yue didn't comment on this.
Actually, there are some reasons, which are only Chu Yue's guesses, but she didn't tell Yue'er.
Ying Zheng is really good to Liji. When the Qin State had not yet unified the world, Yingzheng never reduced his concern for Liji...... Perhaps, Yingzheng also really likes Liji......
However, Liji only has Jing Ke in her heart. Ying Zheng's sincere liking, maybe Li Ji did feel it, but she has always used Jing Ke's enemies and the reasons that she only has Jing Ke in her heart to warn herself, don't be kind to Ying Zheng. And now that things have come to this, Liji, who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, has finally softened her heart for the sake of Tianming, and finally has some ...... Accepted the ...... of Ying Zheng
Such a thing, of course, was just Chu Yue's conjecture. What did Liggie think, I had the impression that Liggie was no longer alive at this time, and there was no way to verify it.
"I can only go and see how Tianming is doing first." Chu Yue thought.
At the beginning, when he took Tianming to the old couple's house, Tianming was still unconscious, and he already had a sleep spell mark on his neck...... Now that I've seen Tianming, maybe Tianming doesn't know himself......
After a few days of driving, Chu Yue and Yue'er finally arrived at the old couple's house.
But......
"This ......" Chu Yue looked at the scene in front of her, and suddenly felt as if she had forgotten something.
"Sister Chu Yue......" Yue'er also said with some hesitation, "here...... It seems like there was a fire......"
In front of Chu Yue and Yue'er, there was an ordinary-sized house that had been burned down......
Although it was a burned house, it now seems to be very dilapidated, and that is because the house has been burned down for a long time...... If it weren't for some easily recognizable burned objects, I wouldn't know that the house was burned down.
It's even nice to call it a "house", because now there's nothing in it except for something that can't be burned or used.
"Alas......" Chu Yue sighed, "It seems that I forgot...... Tianming is no longer here. ”
"Huh? Then it's really ......."
"Hmm." Chu Yue nodded, "At the beginning, I did bring Tianming here. Now it seems that it is no longer inhabited. ”
The place where the old couple lives is a relatively remote place, and there are no other families around, so if you want to ask, you have to ask the nearest village.
Chu Yue walked towards the house, hoping to find some useful clues.
After carefully searching the remaining places, and seeing that there was nothing of value left, Chu Yue shook his head and was about to leave, but suddenly noticed two long wooden signs standing up behind the house, like tombstones.
Walk to the tombstone with Yue'er. The tombstone stood in front of two mounds with nothing written on them. Looking at the appearance of the wooden card, it must have been a long time. Chu Yue immediately thought of what this was.
It's a tombstone erected by Tianming for the two old men......
There are no words on the wooden plaque, because Tianming can't write at all. But...... The young Tianming also knew that a monument was erected for the two old men, which made Chu Yue feel a lot more relieved.
"Sister Chu Yue......" Yue'er walked up to Chu Yue and said.
"Hmm!" Chu Yue smiled and closed her eyes, turned around and said, "Let's go." ”
……
Although he knew that Gai Nie should have found Tianming at this time, and he also knew that they would go to the Mo family, Chu Yue didn't know where to find them at all......
Therefore, after leaving the burned house, Chu Yue still decided to inquire about Tianming first.
When they arrived at the nearest village to the house, Chu Yue and Yue'er walked on the streets of the village.
"Sister Chu Yue, where are we going now?" Yue'er asked.
"Well, I don't know......" Chu Yue said, "The place we are going to is not something that can be found out blatantly...... So, let's inquire about Tianming first. ”
"Hmm." Yue'er nodded.
After walking around the village for a while, Chu Yue was about to find someone to inquire about things, but suddenly found that someone was paying attention to herself and Yue'er.
Chu Yue glanced at the past casually and saw a few people squatting in an inconspicuous corner, looking at herself and Yue'er with greedy eyes.
I felt it, it was some ordinary people......
It can't be child trafficking, right...... Chu Yue couldn't help but guess.
He is a dress and appearance that has not changed for hundreds of years, although he is young but beautiful, his clothes are off-the-shoulder dresses, and Chu Yue's appearance is seen by those nobles who live in ** life all day long, and the first thing that comes to mind must be [beep-] things. And Yue'er's natural temperament is matched with the clothes she just changed, and she is also a pure little beauty. The two of them walked down the street, although it was a village, or because it was a village, they attracted the attention of some people.
"Yue'er......" Chu Yue suddenly whispered.
"Huh?"
Chu Yue leaned into Yue'er's ear and whispered a few words, and Yue'er nodded.
Then, Chu Yue and Yue'er deliberately walked into a dead end......
"Ahh It's a dead end. Chu Yue said.
"No way, uh...... Go back, Sister Chu Yue. ”
"Hmm." Chu Yue nodded, the two of them just turned around, and immediately saw the few men who had paid attention to themselves at first.
"Hey, two little girls, it looks like they're out to play, huh?" A man looked at Chu Yue and Yue'er with a lewd smile.
"It's not fun." Chu Yue smiled and said, "Just came out to inquire about some things." ”
"Inquire about something?" Another man said, "Otherwise, just ask us!" But...... You can't ask in vain, right? ”
"As long as ...... Let's talk about it, play it, and use it as a reward! The man next to him immediately continued.
"You guys!" Yue'er immediately said, "It's too much! ”
"Hey, are we going too far?" A man said, "It's not right for the little girl to say that, look at the little girl next to you, wearing such a short skirt, it looks like she is lonely at night, we help you relieve your loneliness, you should thank us, don't you say?" ”
"yes!" The other men immediately chimed in.
"Ah...... The skirt is so short...... There's a reason for that," Chu Yue said with a smile still on her face, "But if you want to play together...... I'm so happy. ”
"Okay!" Hearing Chu Yue's answer, the eyes of a group of people in the brain of the sperm worm immediately became more ****, as if they immediately made Chu Yue [beep-] ......
