Chapter 016: Why Follow Us
He walked over and called "Second Sister".
Tang Ning turned around, saw that he had already cleaned up, nodded and went to look at the sky again. Because the hour is still early, although the morning glow is like a cloud, the sun is shining down, and it is not too hot.
She sighed softly in the lingering coolness of spring.
"Get ready to get off the boat."
As he spoke, the boat came to shore by itself.
Tang Xin was stunned, and his intuition made him look at the stern. But there was nothing there. With a slight frown, he withdrew his gaze and looked at Tang Ning: "Second sister, is there anyone else on the ship besides us?" ”
Tang Ning was bending down to pick up the burden, and when he heard the words, he paused and raised his head: "You...... Can't see it? ”
Tang Xin shook his head.
Tang Ning grabbed the burden, jumped onto the grass on the shore, and thought for a while: "There is a little monster on the boat." ”
"......" Tang Xin's face changed slightly, "Monsters? ”
Ah Yan happened to land on the relief of the painting boat, and when he heard Tang Ning's words, he immediately chirped crookedly.
Little monster, who is the little monster?
It's not small!
As soon as the fire flashed, it grew rapidly larger, and a beautiful blue lotus seemed to bloom on the top of the painting boat. But no matter how big it becomes, Tang Xin should not be able to see it, or it should not be visible.
Tang Ning glanced at Jia Lan and whispered: "When I came out at night, I met a husband on East Street, and he couldn't see it. ”
When Ah Yan heard this, the flames soared into the sky.
The air is getting hot.
Tang Xin stepped back and moved away from the painting boat: "Then he'...... Youkai too? He looked at Jia Lan, his brow furrowed even tighter, and the childish young man's face looked thoughtful.
Tangning nodded.
He whispered, "So, since they are all monsters, I can't see the little monster on the ship, but I can see him, that is...... He's probably a big monster. ”
As he spoke, Garan walked to the shore.
is full of bells and whistles, and his silver hair is like frost, and his appearance is beautiful.
So handsome.
Sure enough, it's not human.
Tang Xin withdrew her gaze and looked at Tang Ning, but saw that she was still looking at Jia Lan.
She muttered softly and said to herself: "Tang Er's clothes are the same as those of people, it's really not like words......"
It's so gaudy and dazzling, it's painful to the eyes.
Just thinking about it, he suddenly heard a "boom", and Tang Ning hurriedly turned his head to look at the river.
I saw the water splashing in all directions, wave after wave.
The boat is gone.
Ah Yan became small again, floating in the air, and saw several people on the shore looking at him together, and the light around him dimmed: "It's not ......" The sound is like a mosquito and a fly, and it can't be lighter.
But if it's not it, who else could it be?
Downing walked over with a vague footstep and looked into the water. Not a single piece of wood remained, and the whole boat burned to the ground.
She looked up.
Ah Yan muttered, secretly thinking: It's all her fault.
If it weren't for the fact that she had to say something about the little monster, how could it lose its temper and accidentally burn down the painting boat?
It stopped in the air, the fire dimmed, like a fluffy cloud.
Tang Ning let out a long sigh: "Let's find a carriage." ”
She whispered a word, tightened her baggage, and walked to the side path.
Ah Yan froze.
It said a lot of blame for her, but she didn't refute anything, so what did it become?
It hurried after it, grunting and screaming.
Why don't you scold me?
Scold me!
Seeing that Tang Ning didn't speak, it roared and flew to Jia Lan's side, wanting him to speak for it. But Garan yawned and dozed off for a long time, ignoring it at all.
It flew to Tang Xin's side again.
However, although Tang Xin could keenly sense that there was something around him, his eyes could not see it, let alone hear its voice.
Ah Yan was so anxious that he wanted to sigh and shout, but it was too difficult to speak, and he couldn't explain it clearly, so he had to give up.
On the trail, Downing walked faster and faster.
When the boat was destroyed, there was a lot of movement, and it would not be good if it attracted people.
As she walked, she told Tang Xin what happened that night.
"The little maids always say that there are monsters in the back mountain, but it turns out that there really are." Tang Ning said softly, "But probably no one thought that the monster would be in that well." ”
Hearing the well, Tang Xin remembered Miss Tang's dagger, and said the strange thing about the dagger floating in the water.
Tang Ning was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and turned his face to look at Jia Lan.
Jia Lan looked tired, and his voice was lazy: "The dagger didn't sink because there was a seal." ”
Tang Xin looked ahead, frowned and asked, "Since it is a seal, the dagger can't sink, and the things next to it should be the same, right?" ”
Jia Lan glanced at him: "Naturally." ”
"That'...... Second sister, why wasn't she blocked outside by the seal? ”
Jia Lan picked a leaf from the green tree on the side, pinched it between his fingers and looked at it carefully: "If I knew, I could still be locked up in it for hundreds of years?" ”
Hearing this, Tang Xin was silent for a moment, and his steps gradually slowed down.
"Hundreds of years have passed, and now that you have come out, don't you have the place you want to go to, the people you want to meet?"
"Why follow us?"
The green leaves shattered between Garan's fingers.
He raised his hand, wiped it on Ah Yan's body, and said expressionlessly: "Whoever wants to follow you, just by the way." What's more, your second sister still owes me a meal, and I will leave after eating. ”
The sun shone through the gaps in the foliage, dappled and reflected on his face.
Tang Ning looked back and sighed: "This place is sparsely populated, I'm afraid there is nothing for you to eat." ”
Garan smiled: "Just have someone." ”
Ah Yan also cried out in agreement.
Tang Ning listened to his words and felt a dilemma for a while. She hoped that there was someone in front of her who could let her change some food and clothes, but she was also worried that if there was really someone, it would cause the other party to become a monster.
The monsters in the book are all fierce and vicious, and they eat people like beans.
This is a real monster, although it is not horrible to be born, but it must still love to eat people.
Tang Ning glanced up at the sky and saw that the clouds were bright and calm, but there seemed to be dark clouds accumulating in the corner.
She suddenly remembered what Garan had said before she went to bed.
The steps under his feet were a little bigger.
Quicken the pace and walk out of the woods, two small courtyards come into view. Although it looks dilapidated, the white walls and black tiles are clean and neatly cleaned up.
Downing stepped forward and knocked on the door.
A middle-aged man with a dignified appearance came out in response, and when he saw her, he was stunned.
There has always been no one walking around this place, and suddenly I saw three young people, and I was stunned when I changed them.
So Tang Ning didn't say a word, and took out a piece of silver first.
The man's soul was recalled by the silver, and his eyes became more vigilant.
Downing made up a story and handed him the silver.
He hesitated, and did not take it immediately, but who did not love silver, and a woman with a long face came out of the room. When she saw Downing and her silver, she immediately laughed, and in a short time arranged an empty room for them to rest.
There is no tea at home, and three bowls of white water are served.
With a smile on her face, she brought things in and quickly went down to prepare her meal.
Inside the house, Downing opened the window, and the scenery outside was bright and green.
