Chapter Forty-Eight: I'll Soothe Your Slightly Frowning Brow
After about a cup of tea, a few people came to a small town.
Mo Shaozhi looked at the map in his hand: "This is Jinpeng Town." ”
The town coincides with the temple fair on the first day of the new year, and it is crowded.
Several people were leading their horses and walking slowly, because there were more people around, and soon the four of them were divided into several places, and Gao Lan fell behind.
A hunched man suddenly appeared in the crowd, with a hunched back and a tattered body on his body, rubbed beside Gao Lan, was lowering his head, holding the broken bowl in his hand, and turned it on her several times.
Gao Lan glanced at it, understood, and hurriedly took out a little bit of silver from his pocket and prepared to put it in her bowl, but who knows, the other party pulled his hand, as if he deliberately didn't want her to put it in.
Gao Lan was stunned, and slowly withdrew the silver, but saw that the man continued to shake the bowl in his hand towards her, Gao Lan saw this, took out a steamed bun from his pocket, and handed it to the broken bowl, who knew that the other party dodged the bowl again......
Gao Lan was surprised, so he said, "Old man, you don't want money or food, so what are you going to ask me for?" ”
I saw that the other party suddenly smiled ghostly, slowly raised his head, straightened his back slightly, until his eyes touched the top of Gao Lan's head, and made an extremely low tone: "I want that hairpin......"
Gao Lan was in a trance, not to mention that this hairpin was a gift from Hui Niang to herself, and that she had this hairpin with her, if she took it off, her hair would fall out, wouldn't it expose her identity...... So he hurriedly waved his hand: "The old man can do anything else, but this hairpin can't do it." ”
I saw that the old man's ghostly face was immediately gloomy, and the corners of his mouth were horizontal: "There is nothing that I Su Mapo wants to ask for, but I can't ask for it." ”
Gao Lan smiled bitterly: "Can't get it, are you trying to rob it, the people here are really strong." Sure enough, it is a poor mountain and bad water out of the people, and they can't beg, so they dare to rob it. ”
Just as she was thinking about it, she suddenly felt a sharp cold wind on the top of her head, and then she seemed to feel that her originally tightly bound hair was showing signs of loosening......
It's not good, she panicked as if she saw the hairpin herself flying away strangely.
At this moment, Gao Lan hurriedly subconsciously wanted to hold the long hair that was about to fall out, but suddenly felt that the bun was tightening again, and the hand she stretched out above her head seemed to touch a warm hand......
As soon as she turned around, a light gray was reflected in front of her.
It was Mo Shaozhi who held her hair tightly when she was about to spread out.
It turned out that Mo Shaozhi's eyes had never left Gao Lan even in this crowd, he always paid attention to everything about her, and found that something was wrong, and he flew over with lightning speed.
I saw that his left hand was holding Gao Lan's bun, and his right hand suddenly stretched out to his head, and with a pull, in an instant, Mo Shaozhi, who had always been meticulous and upright, had his long flowing hair scattered instantly......
Gao Lan was so surprised that his eyes widened in disbelief.
is accustomed to seeing Mo Shaozhi, who has always been dignified, although it seems abrupt at this time, it has a unique style......
He put his hairpin on Gao Lan's head, and felt satisfied after playing with it for a while, then he looked down at Gao Lan's surprised face and smiled slightly: "Okay......"
Bai Qingqing and the little civet cat in front also rushed over, looking at Mo Shaozhi, who had always been steady, standing in the crowd this time, he couldn't help but be shocked and couldn't close his jaws.
Bai Qingqing raised his eyebrows and said, "Brother Mo...... What do you mean? ”
Mo Shaozhi turned around slowly and said calmly: "Brother Gao's hairpin was stolen by someone. ”
Bai Qingqing looked at the two of them suspiciously: "It was Xiao Lanlan who stole the hairpin, why is it you Mo Shaozhi who has a cloak and hair." ”
Gao Lan suddenly felt sorry and said in a low voice: "Brother Mo lent me his hairpin to use......"
The little civet cat approached, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then suddenly remembered: "That hairpin is the one that Hui Niang gave you?" ”
Gao Lan's expression became more and more flustered, and she leaned around to look for it, but she disappeared from the old woman, and a layer of gloom suddenly appeared on her face: "Alas, that's right, it was sent to me by Hui Niang, and I must find it back." ”
After that, he was ready to continue his search.
Mo Shaozhi, who caught a glimpse of her lost face, grabbed her arm: "Senior brother, let's go into the inn and settle down first, let me get a little grooming." ”
Seeing this, Gao Lan felt guilty: "Okay." ”
Entering the inn, Mo Shaozhi hurriedly tied his hair in a bun: "I have to go to the Mo branch to deal with some things, you eat first and don't wait for me." With that, he strode away.
Gao Lan went back to the house to put down his luggage, but he didn't have the heart to eat, and a few people came outside to inquire about the thief who stole the hairpin.
As soon as she described the thief's craftsmanship, Bai Qingqing suddenly realized: "The person you said is not a famous old naughty boy on the rivers and lakes, Su Magu, oops, then you can't find it back, she is a person, her kung fu is extremely high, she is good at change, she likes to play pranks, likes to use ice silk to steal something unexpected by others, she comes and goes without a trace, and her residence is also extremely hidden, in fact, it is better to say that it is more unexpected, either peeping on the roof of a brothel and watching people fish, or watching people fish under the bridge, in short, it makes people have a headache." , no one wants to mess with her. ”
Gao Lan frowned: "No matter how difficult it is, I have to find it back, it was given to her by Hui Niang's mother, and now it was given to me, but I lost it." ”
Bai Qingqing said: "Either we go to the store and see if there is the same." Xiao Lanlan, if I didn't hit you, the probability of you getting it back is almost zero. ”
The little civet cat took Gao Lan's hand: "Childe, what Bai Qingqing said is not an exaggeration at all, it is true." ”
Gao Lan sighed slightly.
Mo Shaozhi came to the Mo family's branch, saw Xiao Ju, and said solemnly: "Immediately inquire about Su Magu's stronghold here." ”
Xiao Ju frowned a little: "Young Master, that Aunt Su is very annoying, it will be very troublesome to provoke her." ”
"It's not me who messed with her, it's she who messed with me." After speaking, Mo Shaozhi glanced at Xiao Ju with a cold gaze, and Xiao Ju didn't say much.
Soon, someone sent Su Magu's stronghold.
Xiao Ju said: "Young master, I'll go with you." ”
Mo Shaozhi said coldly: "No. ”
Gao Lan and they walked around the street for a long time, but they returned in vain, and a few people ate some food, Gao Lan held his cheeks with one hand, a little unhappy.
"Okay, Childe, go back and talk to Hui Niang, she won't mind," the little civet comforted.
"Hui Niang said that her mother personally sent her to keep her safe, she gave it to me, but I lost it." After speaking, she put her hands on the table, and her chin was about to lie on it, when suddenly a white and slender hand with distinct knuckles was holding something familiar and placed it on the table in front of her......
Gao Lan's eyes widened and he shouted excitedly: "Hairpin!" ”
She suddenly raised her head, and what she touched was Mo Shaozhi's gentle smile like water.
