Chapter 049: Chu Shisan (1)
The carriage stepped on a field of fine snow and slowly drove into Yong'an City.
Xing Ruyi got up from the fox, rubbed his hands, lifted the corner of the curtain and looked out. I saw that the streets in the city were quite wide, and there were many shops standing side by side on both sides of the road, but due to the cold weather, each shop seemed deserted, and there were not many people on the street.
"This Yong'an City is very deserted, I'm afraid there is no excitement to see."
Sighing, Xing Ruyi put down his hand with a little disappointment, and then leaned down on the fox: "This time, you didn't go the wrong way, right?" ”
"You can't be wrong." The fox lightly tapped Xing Ruyi's face, pulled the big coat that was resting aside, and covered her body: "I am dressed so thickly, but my hands and feet are still cold." It's good to look at the excitement if it's not lively, find an inn, and have a good rest for two days. ”
"Aren't you in a hurry?"
Xing Ruyi grabbed the fox's hand and used his fingers to draw circles in his palm.
"Are you in a hurry?"
The fox clasped her hand and asked rhetorically.
Xing Ruyi shook his head lazily: "I haven't figured out how to face Siniang, or even how to face Xiao Shengzi." If not, why do I have to insist on riding this slow carriage with you? Wouldn't it be easier to use a spell and fly back to Luoyang. ”
"You're still thinking about the past?"
"Don't you want to? I owe Siniang after all. ”
"What about Xiao Shengzi?"
"After a few years, I don't know if he has changed. Now, that person's identity is different, presumably Xiao Shengzi is no longer the reckless and ignorant little catcher. It's not that I'm afraid to see him, but I'm afraid that after I do, he can't help but mention the person in the past. Nowadays, with different identities and different positions, it will always be a little embarrassing to meet and talk. ”
"Don't want to see him?" The fox asked softly. Seeing Xing Ruyi raise his head and eyes, he said lightly: "If you don't want to see you, I have a way to make him unable to see you." ”
"Let's wait until we get to Luoyang, let me wander on the road for a while." Xing Ruyi adjusted his posture and lay on the fox's lap again: "For me, he was originally just a character who appeared in history books. Later generations seem to have only the word "Merry", if the records in the history books are true, I am afraid that he has already forgotten who I am at this time. If the historical record is false, then he can't remember it. What I just thought about is probably just my own thoughts. ”
"After all that, you still can't let go."
"Jealous?" Xing Ruyi raised his head and stretched out his hand to hook the fox's neck: "You know, I don't have more than brother and sister feelings for him. I just felt like I owed him something, a little guilty. ”
"But you still remember him."
The fox looked at Xing Ruyi's eyes intently, raised his hand, and landed on the position of her heart: "Ruyi, to be honest, it's hard for me not to mind." You know, our fox clan has always taken feelings seriously, and even a little stubborn. The reason why I am willing to take you back to Luoyang is that I hope you can really let go of all this. I want you, it's just me here. ”
"This ......," Xing Ruyi said with some embarrassment, "I'm afraid it's hard to achieve." ”
The fox's eyes darkened, and an unpleasant expression of loss appeared on his face.
Xing Ruyi got up, leaned over his face, and whispered in the fox's ear, "You can't force me to forget Yin Yuan, right?" Also, even if I pull Yin Yuan out of this heart, I throw it away. And what about our children? Could it be that you have no plans to have a little fox with me in the future? ”
"Little fox?"
"Hmm!" Xing Ruyi nodded: "I'm also a woman, you can't let me only guard you for the rest of my life and have no children of my own." Wouldn't that kind of life be a little boring? ”
"You want to have a little fox?"
"Yes! And I thought about it for a long time, but you just don't want to. Xing Ruyi let go and poked with his two fingers.
"Good!"
"Good what?"
"I allow you to have our children in your heart besides me."
"What about Yin Yuan?"
"You can barely pretend to be one, and call you a mother in the end." The fox said very reluctantly: "Occasionally, you can't always keep it in your heart. ”
"Good! My husband is bigger than the sky, and I will listen to you. So, can I make a request now? ”
"What?"
"It's been a long time since I've seen your pretty face. Now that there is no one around, can you show your true face? I'm really worried that after a long time, I've forgotten what my husband was born like. ”
The fox wiped it in front of its face, and its original appearance was revealed. Xing Ruyi squinted his eyes and went up to take a sip.
"It's still better than before, and it looks more beautiful and delicious."
"Beautiful?"
"Hmm!" Xing Ruyi nodded, but found that his chin had been pinched by the fox. She wanted to pretend to be shy, but she didn't want her lips to be caught by the other party all of a sudden, and it seemed to have some taste of punishment.
When he was kissed and dizzy, he was woken up by a sudden cold wind. When he opened his eyes, he found that he was held in the arms of the fox, and that he was still half-wrapped in the big coat, but he seemed to have forgotten to cover his face, so that he was awakened by a gust of cold wind when she blushed and was shy.
"Why don't you call me?"
Secretly twisted it on the fox's arm, and the fox grinned and did not respond.
The inn is quite clean, but the little two who are in charge of welcoming guests are not very enthusiastic. If it weren't for the fact that the fox was better dressed, he would have wanted to drive the fox and Xing Ruyi to other inns with full guests.
"This inn is so strange." Xing Ruyi looked at the furnishings in the room and muttered.
"It's kind of weird. Although the signs were full, they had clearly not been turned over for a long time. Whether it is on the sign, or on the counter and the tables, chairs and benches in the lobby, there is a layer of light gray, which shows that this inn is not only not full, but has not even welcomed guests for a long time. ”
"Xianggong, your observation skills are still first-class." Xing Ruyi gave a thumbs up with a smile, and then pointed to the furnishings in the bedroom: "It's the same here, there is a layer of light ash everywhere, and the air is full of the smell of dust.
Although this Yong'an City is only a small county town, it is located near the official road, and it is the only way from south to north. These merchants from the south are bound to stop here for a while. This Yunlai Inn is also a good inn in Yongan City, right? Could it be that it is because the inn charges too high and the service is too poor, so there are no guests to patronize it? ”
Thinking of this, Xing Ruyi suddenly ran to the fox, grabbed his sleeve, and said excitedly: "Could it be that this Yunlai Inn is a black shop?" ”
"Are you so happy about the black shop?"
"Everyone is responsible for fighting the underworld and eliminating the evil, not to mention, there is that black shop in this world that can live in my handsome and capable husband. You say, they're going to kill us to make adult meat buns? Or take advantage of the darkness of the night to kill us and then rob us of our gold, silver and jewelry? ”
"Human meat buns? Gold and silver jewelry? The fox flicked helplessly on Xing Ruyi's forehead: "Do you want to do that yourself?" ”
"I probably glanced at it just now, this inn is a relatively high-end inn, although the dishes provided are not rich, but the name of the dish looks quite lofty, and it should not sell any human meat buns. Nine times out of ten, I guess we'll rob our finances. However, we were very poor, and it seemed that we only had silver tickets with us. ”
"And then?" The fox asked rhetorically, and a pair of good-looking fox eyes narrowed.
"While there is no one around, can you use a spell to turn a little gold and silver jewelry out? Since it's a black store, since we want to grab it, we have to let people grab it, right? If you only have a silver ticket, it seems that we are not very rich, and we will inevitably lose our identity. ”
"You!"
Although the fox was a little helpless, in the end, according to Xing Ruyi's temperament, he really changed a lot of gold, silver and jewelry. For a while, the whole room was illuminated.
"Package! I have to change it into another package. So much gold and silver jewelry is placed on the table like this, this is not Lufu, this is stupid. ”
The fox did as he said, and changed into another package. It wasn't until Xing Ruyi was satisfied that he had put away all the gold, silver and jewelry on the table and hid them, and then he cast a spell to clean up the room.
"After a long day, go to bed early. If you want to see the view of this Yong'an City, you have to get up early. I've heard that the sunrise here is pretty good. ”
"What about you?" Xing Ruyi sat on the edge of the bed and patted the soft bed: "Do you want to sleep with me?" ”
"Madame is kind to invite, how can you refuse for a husband?"
After some lingering affection, Xing Ruyi fell into a deep sleep. The fox looked at her sideways, reached out to grab it, and closed its eyes as well.
At night, the sound of gongs and drums came through the cracks in the window. The fox opened his eyes suddenly, and originally wanted to use a spell to seal Xing Ruyi's ears, but when he saw her, he snorted, rubbed his eyes, and sat up in a daze.
"What, is it dawn?"
"Not yet!"
"Then how did I hear the voice of marrying a daughter-in-law?" Xing Ruyi opened his eyes and found that the entire room was still dark. The sound of gongs and drums seems to be coming from the back window. "Is it popular to marry a wife at night in this Yong'an City?"
"Do you want to take a look?"
"Hmm!"
Xing Ruyi responded and lifted the quilt. The fox wrapped her up first.
"Get dressed first, if you stand at the window like this, you're going to get sick nine times out of ten."
"It's still fair and considerate."
Xing Ruyi hugged the fox in a daze, and after getting dressed, he pulled the fox and stood at the back window. Stretching out his hand to push it away, the cold breeze rushed over in an instant.
The moonlight shone on the empty street, and as the sound of gongs and drums got closer and closer, Xing Ruyi's curiosity was also aroused.
