Chapter 140: Loneliness
Since that night, Siming has escaped from Baidi City in a panic, and it has been more than a month, except for the first few days, it was quite comfortable, but then it was all on the way to his life.
After lunch, Siming rarely lay down on the soft couch, with a stove at his feet, and a sleepy incense lit not far away, and he couldn't help but feel a little drowsy.

There was a lot of wind and snow in the mountains, and Siming was still swaying in it for no reason, stepping on it, and the thick snow was flooded to Siming's knees, making a crackling sound.
The mountains in the distance, the trees in the vicinity, were all pressed under the heavy snow, and they were white, Siming rubbed his red hands, put them to his mouth to warm them up, and led the horse to continue walking.
The mountains seemed to have no end in sight, and Siming felt tired from walking, and he didn't see any people, only the looming roar of wolves.
Siming took a difficult step forward, one step heavier and heavier, but his body became lighter and lighter, and the sound of stepping on the snow became smaller and smaller, and in the end he fell down heavily.
Wake up! Wake up! I don't know where the voice came from, Siming opened his eyes with difficulty, but Liang Tian's face was reflected in the sun, Siming stretched out his hand to touch her, but he hung down weakly.
When he looked again, Liang Tian had already walked away, leaving only a back in the white snow-capped mountains.

Maybe he wasn't used to it, but when he woke up, Siming, looking at the layout of the house, felt very unfamiliar, got up and put on his shoes, and walked to the yard.
In the middle of the courtyard of the courtyard, there was a water tank, on which some ice slag floated, reflecting Siming's face, foggy. Si Ming, who was looking at the water tank, suddenly had another shadow beside him, and when he turned his head to look, it was still the woman in red.
"What? Is there anything strange in this? I heard that there will be lotus flowers blooming in this tank in the summer, but unfortunately I came late this year and didn't see it. The woman in red said.
"Nope." After Siming finished speaking, he turned around and walked back, went up the steps, sat on a chair under the eaves, stared at the snowflakes falling in the sky, and thought about the mountain that could never be walked out.
The woman in red also went to the house and moved a stool out, sat down next to Siming, crossed Erlang's legs, supported her chin on her hands, and looked at the sky, and said, "The river in Zhangcheng should also be frozen at this time, but it is warmer here." โ
After staying alone for a long time, there was suddenly another person around him, but Siming didn't feel at ease, but was a little noisy, moved the chair, moved farther away from the woman, and replied angrily, "Are you okay to do?" โ
The woman in red remembered that on the night Siming was rescued, she had deliberately left someone in the house to wait for him to fall asleep before leaving, so she always accompanied him, but at this time, she was annoyed that someone was with her, and she shot back, "This river hasn't crossed yet, you want to demolish the bridge?" โ
"You sent someone to investigate?"
The woman in red turned her face, looked at Siming and said, "I told the people over there of the Long family, and they said that we don't have to worry about it, they will check it themselves." โ
"You..." Siming was even more angry, that day he talked flatteringly, saying that he would come back to check, and then he said that he would let the Long family investigate, just such a precious person, and he didn't take what he said seriously at all.
Thinking of this, Siming remembered that a few months ago, this person inexplicably came to him for a drink, saying that he wanted to tell him an important news, but he got drunk and ran away, he was really a weird person.
"You're not helping the Long family, why did you go to the mountains?" Although Siming also thought about whether this should be an accident, he still wanted to ask clearly.
The woman replied, "I'm looking for you, I'm just doing something." Not to mention, I've been waiting for you on that road for more than half a month, that is, I, if I were someone else, I couldn't stand the wet and cold weather in the mountains and came back. โ
It turned out that the Long family was looking for him, no wonder when they met, the master of the flower hall said that he wanted to see the head of the Long family at night, it should be that Long Ping, last time Quan Guier seemed to call him that.
I don't know if Ah Pan will come with her, Siming hasn't seen her for half a year, in previous years, when she was in Baidi City, she was still used to it, but this year she will miss her a little.
The heavy snow is still like goose feathers, constantly floating, and the two have a chat with each other, and occasionally they will talk and ignore each other. It was near dusk when the snow stopped, and on the western hills, some orange sunlight appeared.
In the east of the village, there was a horse stepping on the snow, and it was going to the house where Siming lived, and he didn't report it when he got off the horse, so he went directly into the house and shouted, "Where is my brother Qiao?" โ
The martial artists in the house seemed to be familiar with her, and hurriedly pointed her out the room and led her over, and when she saw Siming, she shouted happily, "Brother Qiao! After speaking, he rushed up and hugged Siming.
Gu Pan's strength was originally greater than that of ordinary people, and he rushed over so vigorously that he almost made Siming sitting on the chair fall to the ground, although it was not much better if he didn't fall down, and the arm he had just seen was squeezed and painful. At this time, Siming regretted very much that he had a trace of thinking about her just now.
"It hurts!" There was an injury on his body, Siming naturally couldn't bear it, pushed Gu Pan back, quickly covered his injured hand, and wanted to remove the bandage to see if the blood collapsed, and after a while, Siming's conjecture came true, and the blood spread over the white cloth and soaked out again.
Gu Pan saw that there was blood flowing out of Siming's arm, and he was also anxious, so he called the doctor loudly again, and it took a hurry to stop Siming's bleeding.
Ouyang Lian on the side watched this funny meeting scene of relatives and friends, and said to Gu Pan with a smile, "The life I just saved has caused you to harm half of it." โ
Gu Pan didn't deal with this person, he used his ass to push her away, drove her away, sat on Siming's side, and said, "I have saved Brother Qiao so many times, you can use it to offset it." โ
"You treat your brother as a nine-tailed fox, and you still have a few lives to pay." Although Ouyang Lian was pushed aside, she was still unforgiving.
Gu Pan said that he couldn't win her, so he pulled Siming to leave, "Brother Qiao, let's go home." He was stopped by Ouyang Lian again, "The person I picked up, you said you would take it away?" โ
"What? Haven't lost enough before? It's a matter of course for me to take my brother away, what are you stopping me from doing. โ
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, I didn't know who went to call the master of the flower hall over, and shouted in a low voice, "Lian'er, come back." Ouyang Lian could only obediently follow behind her mother, sulking, looked at Siming and thanked her, and followed Gu Pan.
Gu Pan was naturally very happy when she saw Siming, and she jumped up and down to say a lot of things now, but when it came to it, it was nothing more than something like being a guard for the Long family, and she was happy in her mouth, but Siming felt a little unhappy, she was the sister of her cousin, and she had to follow her all day to do these dangerous things.
From the house where the Hundred Beasts Hall lived, and further inside, there were some more spacious courtyards, which were the places where the two fathers and daughters lived. Spacious but spacious, there is always a little empty, and no one has cleaned the snow in the middle of the yard, and when he goes to the hall, only Gu Wende is lying there and sleeping.
"Daddy! Brother Qiao is here, why are you still sleeping. "Maybe it has a lot of use outside, and Gu Pan has no scruples about his father, and he only wants to be happy when he gets along.
Gu Wende was woken up, rubbed his eyes, and saw that Siming hurriedly got up and pulled his shoes over, "How did you become thin and dark, how much have you suffered in the past six months?" โ
Gu Wende had heard about Siming's outside, but since he entered the Long family's village in May, it was difficult to get out. Whether it was Siming returning to his hometown of Mincheng or arriving in Baidi City in a daze, Gu Wende heard it from Quan Gui'er, and he couldn't help but be very worried.
The little boy who was picked up from outside the ghost gate back then has grown so big, and his mind is getting deeper and deeper, and he is becoming more and more unpredictable.
When Siming met this time, he was not as cold as usual, he gave up his hands and shouted well, "Uncle." โ
"I've heard about it, and Ah Pan and I both believe in you. The Long family also promised to take action to find out about this matter, and there should be a result soon. It's just that I don't know if the inn can be opened when I go back, if it can't be opened, we will have another store here, and you can open it. "It's an uncle, and I'll still come to persuade him in case of trouble.
Only Gu Pan was very happy when he heard that he was going to open a store here, twisted Siming's hand and said, "Brother Qiao, you can come here, I always don't have time to see you." This time, I was supposed to pick you up, but they thought I was too young to know the way, and it was easy not to touch you. โ
The two persuaded him, Siming didn't listen to it, but he had his own business, and he had to go back to Baidi City, thinking of this, Siming remembered some things from the past and asked, "Uncle, do you still remember, what happened to my grandfather's tea garden back then?" โ
Gu Wende naturally deliberately concealed these old things from Siming, so he didn't say anything about it once. At this time, there was no reason to say it to Siming, so he waved his hand and said, "Old past, what are you doing with this." Ah Pan, quickly put the luggage brought by your brother Qiao into his room. โ
Gu Pan heard what Gu Wende said, and hurriedly led Siming to the inner room.
Siming didn't follow Ah Pan to the back room, but found a chair, sat on it, and said quite unkindly, "Luggage? You really don't know anything here, everyone else has chased me to the road to kill me, and you still think I can get here intact? Siming was a little angry, so he simply used a radical method to see his uncle's reaction.
"Impossible! When they took over the Gu family's tea plantation, they promised my father that he would help us. Gu Wende was a little disbelieving and blurted out.
Hum! Siming knew that this was the result, and the tea garden was really taken by their family, and I usually knew that if you didn't say it, I wouldn't ask, and if I wanted to ask, I would naturally find an opportunity for you to say it.
"What about my father's business?" In addition to the abnormality when he first learned the news, Siming has always had doubts about what Uncle Zhou said, but he encountered bandits to make trouble that night, so he has been unable to verify it.
"You don't have to think about these things all the time, and they don't want you to live in hatred all the time." Gu Wende said helplessly.
Siming knew that he would use these words to prevaricate himself, so he simply ignored him and followed Gu Pan to the back room. But when he saw Gu Pan stunned there, he saw Siming going over, and asked in a low voice, "Are we enemies with Brother Pinyuan?" โ
"He's not." Siming touched Gu Pan's forehead and said with a smile.
