Finally about to embark on the journey again, Xiao Nan lay in the carriage where he had been absent for several days, feeling that this kind of trip was good anywhere, but it was very troublesome not to take a happy bath. And with his current physical condition, it seems unlikely that he wants a comfortable bath.

When he lay down on the pillow, he found that Miao Feng and the others didn't know when they had carefully added some armrests to the car, and there were also futons in the corners, probably to make it easier for him to hold on to and avoid hitting it.

He grabbed the armrest and sat up, and saw that his legs, which were covered with silk quilts, had become so short that only the thighs remained.

Originally, I thought that the lack of a leg would be abrupt enough. Now it seems even weirder.

He could only close his eyes and recuperate.

The carriage finally began to move.

The wheels of the car creaked against the uneven dirt road, and the car jolted with it.

His carriage was covered with many layers of cotton pads and bedding, and the shock-absorbing effect was still there. Miao Feng gave him a bell and put it in the drawer of the small desk in his hand, as long as he shook it, it meant that he needed someone to take care of him, and the car would stop.

There is a built-in small stove in Wanyue's car, but he is afraid that he will burn himself if he is unable to move, so there is no configuration in this car. But she and Luhua would come from time to time to bring him hot water and change the heating water bag. With a body like him, it's really troublesome for others.

After thinking about it for a while, he simply cleared his mind, opened the curtains, and looked at the scenery outside the glass window.

The mountains and forests outside are covered in snow, but the snow here doesn't stay too long or too thick. After all, it doesn't snow much all year round, and even if it is covered with snow, it is lush and green, and the scenery is extremely pleasant, which makes people feel a little poetic and happy.

I have been hurt, cried, and hated along the way, and from the perspective of mortals, how much torture I have gone through to get to this point.

However, he is now at peace of mind.

Even, a little delighted. Because he also gets a lot.

He does not regret losing his legs.

The carriage stopped slightly as he was drowsy, and it was Wanyue who came to change his hand warmer and hot water bottle.

In Wanyue's tampered memory, she still regarded Xiao Nan as an injury that had just healed and took care of her.

She took out the hot water bottle wrapped in layers of towels from under Xiao Nan's leg to replace it, and by the way, told Xiao Nan the route to the depths of the mountains this time.

"Do you have a map?" Xiao Nan asked.

"Right here." Wan Yue had already put the map into the cabinet beside him in advance, and she took out the map and spread it out for Xiao Nan to see, and the route had been carefully marked on it.

"Why did we go around in a big circle, didn't we have each other's people to lead the way? Isn't there a shortcut? Xiao Nan asked.

This time they went into the mountains to visit the female bandit leader called the Half-Faced Fairy, and when the female bandit leader received the news from the flying pigeon, she asked them to go to the contact point to find her men to guide them. The road at the beginning is led by the self-volunteering Ani.

It's just that after some consultation, Xiao Nan didn't expect that the route would become so circuitous.

As a result, they spend many days on the road.

"There are shortcuts, but in the middle of this mountainous area, there is the triennial 'mountain market', that is, the place where the bandit leaders gather, and it will last for about a month, so it is safer for us to bypass the mountain market." Wanyue explained.

"I see, I'm not in good health these days, it's really hard for you to sort these out." Xiao Nan said.

"It's not a big deal for me." Wanyue put a new hot water bottle for him, "It's thirteen young you, when will you be able to take good care of your body?" This poor mountain and bad water will only worsen your condition. ”

"When we leave this sea of trees, we can almost do it once and for all." Xiao Nan smiled and said, "Please forgive me, this little waywardness." ”

"Are you 'small' willful?" Wanyue blamed, but sighed again, "No matter what you want to do, I will always support you." ”

Xiao Nan nodded.

Wanyue straightened his hair, which was a little messy because he slept, and then silently lowered his head and said:

"Without two legs, your life will be even more difficult in the future, right?"

"No, it won't." Xiao Nan shook his head, "I won't collapse." Nothing difficult will bring me down. So my days won't be any harder. Even if I don't have legs, I can get out of my way. We have come out of the Xiao family's backyard, and in the future, we will go further. ”

"I believe in you." Wan Yue looked at him and said, she couldn't take her eyes off him.

——————

Because of the addition of the toast lady Ani, the team has become much more energetic, and the local eldest lady, even if she is noble, has the unique wildness of a mountain girl, and her mouth is non-stop, and she has to sing mountain songs on the mule, as if she doesn't know how to be tired.

She's singing really ugly. Xiao Nan can't see through it, if it weren't for the fact that the girl talked too much nonsense, her voice was loud and a little ADHD, he might have asked her to come to his carriage to talk about the local rumors and gossip.

Because of boredom, Xiao Nan practiced turning and moving in the car, and he found that he was missing a leg, and it was really difficult to turn over.

The stump that he originally thought had no effect on it seemed to be usable under exercise, at least when both legs were amputated at a high level, the stump could be used to move with strength.

He supported the futon with his arms, and tried to drag forward the light lower body, half of his body, this was the first time he successfully moved himself after leaving Miao Feng's care, so he tried to move forward again, and finally moved to the front of the large cabinet that was connected to the body, which contained a lot of sundries he had brought from the future, such as snacks or something.

He forgot what he had stuffed in it, and when he opened it, he saw that in addition to the snack gift bag, there were also some miscellaneous idle books, such as ......

"Reading, Digest", "Ghost Stories" or something.

He casually picked up a ghost story book and read it, and it happened that one of them talked about Miao Jiang and Gu.

"Gu?" He hadn't thought about whether Miao Feng would use Gu or not. Because he has always felt that Gu or something is just a superstitious legend, just like chasing out corpses, just a false rumor.

At this time, before the carriage stopped, Miao Feng opened the door with a click, swaggered like a cat uncle, and sat in.

"You don't even have to stop to get in the car?" Xiao Nan was surprised.

"How did you displace?" Miao Feng was a little surprised.

"Isn't it strange that I moved here?" Xiao Nan said.

“………… It's nothing, it's good that you can move. I'll come and see you. Miao Feng said, "Come over here, cover your quilt, it's still cold." If you don't want your left leg to cramp like your right leg, keep warm! ”

"You said I was going to be confined."

"This is much more serious than confinement, come over quickly." Miao Feng directly dragged him back to the original cushion, and then softened his legs.

Xiao Nan didn't like others to touch his body, but in the face of Miao Feng, he didn't have anything to say, so he simply lay down and enjoyed his massage.

"Can you still feel your left leg?" Miao Feng asked.

"Yes. I feel my left foot right on your face. Xiao Nan said.

"Stomp on your head!" Miao Feng pinched the stump of his left leg heavily, and Wanyue carefully changed the trousers that Xiao Nan wore when he was in the car, cut off the excess part of the procrastination, and sewed the trouser tube according to the length of his stump, so that Xiao Nan was not only easier to move, but also conducive to keeping the stump warm.

Xiao Nan waved his hand away with the stump: "Don't worry, I'm already adapting." ”

The wagon convoy had been moving forward for a day, and since the speed was not very fast, it had only reached the next mountain village. This is no longer a normal village, but a small stronghold of bandits, but on the surface it looks like a village.

Ani's two elder brothers are kings of the mountain here, so she is not afraid of the people who guard the entrance of the village here, and the people at the entrance of the village also respectfully call her "Miss", she handed over the letter she received from the half-faced fairy to the brother who is the boss here, and the brother did not dare to offend this "half-faced fairy", so he greeted Xiao Nan and his party as VIPs and arranged the best guest rooms for them.

After Xiao Nan was carried out of the carriage by Miao Feng, there was no need to take a wheelchair and lift a chair like before, one because the local area was mountainous and rugged, and the other because his actual height was only as tall as a child, and it was just right to be held by Miao Feng like a child.

It's just that after getting out of the car, many people's eyes fell on him, and even at him, who was half wrapped in a blanket and leaning on Miao Feng's body, he was talking and pointing fingers.

Xiao Nan knew that he would face more such eyes in the future, he had already suffered a lot of this kind of "attention" as a disabled person before, and he thought that he didn't care very much, but he completely lost the lower half, and behind him, he still felt that this kind of critical gaze was even more excessive.

But he won't let that hold back on that.

"Relax, Xiao Nan." Miao Feng hugged him, so he could detect subtle changes in his body.

He hugged Xiao Nan and walked quickly up to a bamboo building arranged for them, and Xiao Nan of the province was violently exposed in the cold air and people's strange eyes, and he was exposed for too long.

Their rooms were covered with tiger and animal skins, which looked quite luxurious, and they had a brazier, which was ten times more comfortable than the average local home.

Putting Xiao Nan on the futon, Miao Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that Xiao Nan had a good face, and he used to prepare prosthetics just to look good when he wore them. But he didn't know how to say it, so he scratched his head and said, "Don't care what others think of you." ”

"Where I care, I don't care." Xiao Nanyun said lightly.

He moved to the innermost part of the bed, where there was a small window that could be pushed open.

At this time, torches are being lit in the cottage, and the terrain here is relatively high, so you can see it clearly.

Xiao Nan put his hands on the stump and looked out, it was also nine o'clock in the evening, but the village still looked like a strict battle, and many people were guarding the door. Apparently not because of their arrival.

At this time, a small servant came to deliver hot water, and when he entered the door, he said: "Two guests, the owner called me to come and tell you, wait for the bell to ring, the lights will be turned off inside and outside the village, don't open the window to look out, because the 'Gu car' will pass through the road at our door, and when the time comes, if you accidentally see it, you will be hit by the Gu, and the person will die." ”

"What is a Gu car?" Xiao Nan said curiously.

"I don't know, anyway, I just know that it's a very evil thing." The little guy shook his head and said, "If you ask my grandfather, he may not be able to tell why, so don't ask, it's very evil anyway." I heard that the people who accidentally saw the Gu car died miserably the next day. ”
