Chapter 12: The Rose Beauty

Because the wound on Song Zhi's shoulder could not withstand the violent bumps, the final arrival time in the lockdown city was half a day later than expected.

By the time the group arrived before the lockdown, the sun was already high in the sky.

A group of soldiers armed with spears walked neatly towards the carriage.

There was also a group of crossbowmen on the walls, watching them vigilantly, and if the Boros and others made the slightest move, they would cast their crossbow arrows in an instant.

"It turned out to be Uncle Song, where did you go to do business again?" The captain of the guard team asked loudly as he checked the car for any prohibited dangerous items.

When he was sure there was nothing special in the car, he turned to look at the two unfamiliar faces behind him.

"Huh, why have I never seen these two people? Could it be that they are distant relatives of Song Bo?"

"I took over the work of the Sun family, and I just came back from Pecheng. These two young men I met on the road, and if they hadn't guessed that my stupid son and I would have been blown away by the winter ghosts. Song Bo replied, handing a piece of soft coin to the captain.

The captain motioned to the soldiers behind him to accept it, this was not a bribe, but a business tax.

"Winter Ghost?" Captain Yan looked at the plain in the distance, "I didn't expect the winter ghost to come so soon this year." It's hard work, Uncle Song, you guys go in first. ”

Qingxi followed closely beside Boro, and when they walked past Captain Yan, they found that he was still staring at him, looking thoughtful.

"Captain" A soldier saw that the group had entered the city, and the captain was still standing in a daze. I couldn't help but shout loudly again.

"What's the matter?"

"The people are gone. ”

"I know," Captain Yan stared at the end of the distant horizon, as if he could see the pale storm raging in the distance.

"Tell someone to keep an eye on the wind puppet, and report him as soon as he has any changes. ”

Boro arrived in the city, the first time in his life that he had seen so many people together. "This village is so big. ”

With excitement written on his face, he couldn't wait to visit all the places to greet everyone he met and become friends.

"Han boy~" Song Bo scolded with a smile.

"Uncle, where is the Exorcism Guild?" Although Boro was a little excited, he still did not forget his original purpose. After all, he left the village in order to find the white god.

"Guild," Song Bo glanced at his son, "You take them there." I have to go to Sun's house first. ”

"Me?" Song Zhi didn't know why, obviously a little unkind. However, he glanced at Qingxi and nodded, "I'll take you there." ”

Bouro was as excited as a monkey along the way, driving back and forth, looking at this and that, and when he saw a flower shop on the side of the road, he was immediately attracted by the roses placed outside the porch.

There were still a few drops of water on the bright red petals, and looking at him Boro was inexplicably like seeing the white god, but the white god was white. And what is in front of you has been recolored by fuel.

"What's wrong with you?" Qingxi walked up to him and asked strangely, because at this time, Boro's eyes lost their smart brilliance, as if someone had taken the soul out of his body.

"Ah, it turned out to be a pair of fairy couples. The owner of the flower shop walked out with a smile on her face, wearing a bright red cheongsam decorated with rose lace, and a pair of sleek thighs exposed.

A deep ravine on his chest made Qingxi subconsciously glance at his chest and feel devastated.

Boro's eyes regained their brilliance, and he looked up at the flower shop lady and asked, "What's the name of this flower?"

"Do you mean this one?" The woman's voice seemed to be born with the charm of a mature woman, and if it were another man, it would have been led away by the proprietress by now.

She stretched out her slender and slender finger and pointed at the uncle rose, "This is called a red rose, it is a kind of rose~"

The fragrance of the woman's body even overshadowed the scent of the surrounding flowers. Boro sniffed lightly and subconsciously said, "It's so fragrant." ”

Qingxi hugged Boro's shoulders and looked at the flower shop owner with hostility.

"Ho ho, the little daughter-in-law is jealous. ”

"We're not husband and wife!" Qingxi argued.

"Oh, that's girlfriend. The proprietress was still smiling, and she picked up one from the bouquet.

"You don't know this man at all. The proprietress bent her eyes, broke off the green branch under the petals, and handed the remaining petals to Qingxi, "I'll give it to you." ”

"I don't want it" Although he didn't know why the flower shop owner gave him this flower, the woman's sixth sense and the exorcist's eighth instinct told her that she must not be well.

"You don't want it?" The owner of the flower shop looked a little disappointed: "Such a beautiful flower has been abandoned like this." It's a pity~"

I don't know what the flower shop owner is talking about, but Qingxi also began to pity the petals blooming. But I had already refused just now, so why was I embarrassed to ask for it.

The proprietress laughed again, flipping her hand and letting the petals fall straight to the ground.

Before Qingxi could think about it, his body took the initiative to pounce. Catch the falling flowers with the palm of your hand, and one of the red petals has already withered in mid-air.

Looking at the stamenless rose with only six petals left in his palm, Qingxi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. But the flower had lost its branches, and it would not be long before he would die sooner or later.

But since I have saved him, of course I have the obligation to prolong his life as much as possible. Taking a round glass ball from his backpack, Qingxi poured the last remaining half bottle of purified water into it, and then carefully let the roses float on the water.

The ball was originally intended for the last fry, and it was able to ignore the shock caused by external activity, keeping the water surface calm for a long time. Now is the perfect new home to use as a rose.

"So you're all here. Song Zhi walked over quickly, breathing a little short. Looks like it came over just now. "I've been looking for a long time. ”

"We've always been here. Boro looked at him strangely, for he didn't remember that he was far away, and he should have been able to see him at a glance from his position.

"Is it always there?" "I haven't seen you in the many times I've been running from here. ”

"We've been here to watch the flowers, and the hostess can testify. As he spoke, Qingxi pointed to the flower shop, only to find that the figure just now had completely disappeared. Even the flower shop in front of him has become a different scene.

Now all they saw was an old man sitting on the side of the street begging, his hair disheveled and he couldn't see clearly.

In front of her lay a tattered porcelain bowl stained with mud.

"Whatever, I've found you anyway. The Exorcist Guild was just a short walk ahead, and we arrived. ”......
