Chapter 247: The Old One
"Who do you say is the old woman?" said Peony, grabbing Boro, "Little rabbit, don't run!"
"Impossible!" Boro ran into the crowd and squeezed towards the Spring Rite procession.
Peony just stood outside the crowd and stomped his feet angrily, "Little rabbit, don't come back if you have the ability." ”
"Sister Peony......" Xiaolan came to Peony's side and asked tentatively and softly.
"You ......"
"Xiaolan~" Peony turned around, and Xiaolan felt a chill in her back, "Sister Peony...... What do you want to do?"
"I'm not doing anything, it's a good day to celebrate. ”
"Well, indeed. Xiaolan subconsciously began to stay away from the peony
"However, I have become unhappy with some people on such a good day. You say~ what should I do?"
"Whoever upset you to clean him up, I seem to have something to do...... I'll go first!"
Xiaolan fled backwards into the garden, and Peony couldn't catch Boro and couldn't always hold it in her heart.
"Don't run!"
Boro came to the front of the Chunli team, a wooden board with many pieces of meat stacked, and in the open box were sparkling hedrons.
"Next"
Boro was squeezed by the crowd, and the soldier in charge of distributing the spring gifts looked at him and "stretched out"
Boro looked at the people in front of them, and whenever they approached a place, they would reach out and wait for the things that were about to belong to them.
Boro didn't do that himself, he had two big heaps of hers, so much he just wanted the meat.
The soldier didn't say anything about Boro's actions, but just glanced at him and distributed the hedron to the inhabitants behind him
Before coming to the meat board, everyone gets three different cuts of meat, with beef being the largest and pork being the least.
Boro walked out of the crowd with three pieces of meat wrapped in white cloth, but at this time he had already come to the other end of the street, and it was no longer feasible to go back to the Peony Pavilion and take the original road, and the crowd had already completely blocked the street.
"It looks like you can only go back in a circle. "There weren't a few people on the road, and most of them were residents who had received the Spring Festival and were planning to return from here.
Boro walked around the corner, and a carriage appeared in front of him.
Driving the carriage was a man with an indifferent face, who sat in the driver's seat and watched Boro.
Boro stood aside, intending to wait for the carriage to pass first. But when he looked at the coachman, he always felt that he was familiar.
The carriage drove through the streets and began to drive towards the wilderness outside the city.
"Why is he going out of the city at this time?" said Boro, who wondered what the man was going to do.
"Wildland......" Boro remembered that he had met the Sheephorn Demon before, and had seen a convoy coming from outside the city before.
Boro recalled the man's face just now, and an unprecedented anger burst out directly from the depths of his heart.
"Thief!"
Boro dropped the piece of meat and chased after the carriage.
"Someone is catching up," said one of the men sitting in the carriage as he looked at Boro, who was chasing behind.
"It's that kid, the sword we were holding before is his," the man in charge of driving the carriage was still unhurried.
"Do you want me to dispose of him?
"No, I don't. "The man who drove the car, as the leader of this group of professional killers, has his own plans" The death of the third child can only be blamed on his own procrastination, besides. The woman didn't want anyone to die because of that, and that's what the employer meant. All we have to do now is disappear. ”
"What then, do you want me to stop him for a while?" the man looked at Boro, who was already approaching, "It would probably be a very troublesome thing to be entangled by him. ”
"One man, two legs. How can you run more than four legs and two wheels? However, the driver took out a black mud pellet from his pocket and threw it on the ground for insurance.
"Fourth, shoot an arrow at the floor under his feet and don't hurt him. ”
"Understood. The other man in the carriage stood up and picked up a modified crossbow bolt from his side.
The mud pellets that fell to the ground began to melt, releasing a cloud of gray smoke.
Boro saw the carriage open a door panel, and a ghost-faced man with a white smiling face appeared in front of him.
"There will be no ......time in the future," the fourth man shot an arrow and flew towards Boro.
Boro frowned, he couldn't see the trajectory of the arrow. In this way, there is no way to dodge accurately
At this time, there was a thick smoke wafting under their feet, and there was a fork in the road not far ahead, and if they let them run away, it might be really difficult to find Shengsheng again.
The arrow suddenly changed direction, and struck the floor in front of Boro's toes as precisely as if it had lost its strength.
The smoke completely spread through the streets, and the carriage disappeared from its own sight. Boro had no choice but to rush forward, so that he might still be able to see the carriage.
But when he rushed through the smoke, all he saw was a deserted street, and there was no trace of a carriage at all.
The smoke slowly drifted away, and Boro stopped where he was for a while, so he had to give up looking. When I walked back to the street corner, the pieces of meat I had left here were gone.
"Damn!" now I don't feel anything but anger.
Instead, Bouro laughed because of this, "Maybe that's what the old man often says, the bamboo basket fetchs water......"
A boy came out trembling and holding a white cloth in his hand.
"Did you lose this?" the boy blinked, looking scared.
"I guess I lost it. ”
"What about this...... Give it back to you......" said the boy cautiously walked over to Boro and raised the piece of meat high.
"Where's your mom and dad?" Bourro opened the bag and found a piece of beef he had left behind. The reason why he can be so sure is because the person who killed a thousand knives actually stuck two knives in his piece of meat!
"They are taking gifts from His Majesty the King. ”
"Thank you. Borough wanted to rub the boy's head, but after thinking about it, he took out a spar from his body and handed it to him, "This is for you, as a thank you." You can take it and buy a hundred bamboos."
"Firebamboo!" the boy's eyes lit up, and it seemed that firebamboo was much more important to him than meat.
"Well, you can buy a hundred. Boro wrapped the beef and was about to leave.
"Thank you, uncle. ”
Boro was slightly stunned: "Uncle?"
"Uncle!?" Xiaolan laughed when she heard Boro talk about it, and she looked at Boro's face, "Well, don't say that you do look like an uncle when you don't laugh." ”
Boro smiled wryly, "Really?"
"It's more like laughing. Xiaolan looked at the beef on the table, "So you not only lost the carriage, but also almost lost the New Year's gift?"
"It's good that I have that little boy, otherwise I would have lost all my money. ”
