Chapter 40: Ask Clearly

On the way to Sand Country, a large number of village houses were exposed on the horizon, and in order to hide people's eyes, Yang Ruilin put down the apple and turned to a tender green vine to circle the hands of the two.

He was always a little uneasy.

The left hand touches the right hand, and it feels subtle. Yang Ruilin looked at Ping's face, and the girl looked at the house in the distance.

"There are so many people that I can't speed up my journey with my own energy now. Considering the power of the Illuminati, we have to change our names when we interact with people. ”

The girl looked at him with an approving look in her eyes.

Yang Ruilin smiled at her, and his tone was mixed with a little discussion: "Tang He, is it okay?" ”

In the big dark eyes was Yang Ruilin's gentle face, and he smiled at himself in the girl's eyes.

has always been Apple, Chi Ran's sister Chi Apple, and Tang He, who is obscure.

The girl nodded, "Okay." ”

"Tang He, I'm Songfu."

Tang He nodded again and approached the market with Songfu.

The first thing that catches your eye is an old man selling sugar gourds, with tattered clothes and white sideburns, but the strings of sugar gourds are shining.

Tang He took a few more looks, and Songfu bought them all.

"Thank you, young man! I don't want this fraction......"

Songfu gave a silver-patterned ticket, and the old man wanted to find money, but Songfu just shook the old man's hand and told him to keep it.

The rough, sticky palms trembled, and the hands were poignant compared to the long, loose fingers.

"Thank you, young man, good people have good rewards!" The old man who sells sugar gourds to make ends meet almost cried.

Songfu withdrew his hand and glanced at the empty surroundings, a family not far away, and the children sat on the threshold, staring at them directly, as if they were hungry for sugar gourds.

"Old man, why are there so few people on the street?"

It's okay not to mention it, but when he heard Songfu ask, the old man sighed again and again, and whispered: "There are many rumors that there is going to be a war." We don't understand the affairs of the official family, but we took away the grain, and the conscription took away the crops, everyone felt uncomfortable in their hearts, and their lives were really sad! ”

Tang He, who was silent, saw everything in his eyes, and when Songfu handed her the sugar gourd, Tang He, who had barely swallowed the cold rice for several days, swallowed his saliva and did not eat.

It's not that Songfu doesn't buy her a good one.

The section of the road they are ahead of is sparsely populated, and it is common to exchange several silver-stamped tickets for gruel and steamed bread vegetarian dishes, and dry hard cakes are the staple food.

Tang He lost weight. Songfu tried his best to do this, and he also caught a game roast. The flesh of the unknown animal was difficult to bite, but Tang He still had no complaints, and tore it and swallowed it.

Songfu, who was thoughtful about everything, comforted the old man, and at the same time removed the sugar gourds one by one, wrapped them separately and put them into the burden on his shoulders.

Seeing that the old man's mood calmed down a little, he pulled the girl's cuffs and continued walking. And she Tang He stared at the sugar gourd, turned around and ran to the child sitting at the door, and whispered

"Here you go." ”

The child shrunk back: "Mother, there is a sister ......"

"This," Tang He grinned, his smile harmless, "for you." ”

After hesitating for a while, the child reached out and took it, he looked at Tang He and then at Songfu, and finally couldn't help but open his mouth and lick and eat little by little.

Returning to Songfu's side, Tang He jumped a few steps, and his mood was excited.

I gave it to you, you gave it to him, although he understood the idea of doing good deeds, Songfu still had some minds, could it be that she didn't want to eat sugar gourds at all? That's why it was given to children.

So Songfu asked, "I guess, you like sugar gourds, right?" ”

"Yes." Tang He waved his hand to refuse Songfu's kindness in bringing her the remaining sugar gourd, "Thank you, help the elderly, buy me food, carry your own luggage......"

"Ping, no, Tang He. You don't need to call me anything, just call me Songfu. Moreover, we can be regarded as peers, and what we do for our partners is what we should do. We can have a more relaxed way of getting along. ”

She remembered Cheng San.

Tang He jumped a step and tried to say, "Songfu, I'll eat sugar gourd again tonight, you are not allowed to eat it secretly." ”

Yang Ruilin, who was already Songfu, enjoyed this rare casualness, and his words couldn't help but be obedient and easy-going: "Okay, when will Tang He eat, when will Songfu eat." ”

Tang He's feet were stunned, Songfu was not Cheng San who was very arrogant after all.

She was shocked by the change in her attitude towards Yang Ruilin, and she easily lifted her guard after just a few days of getting along.

Even if Yang Ruilin changed his name to Li Fu, Lin Fu, and Xu Fu...... are all suspicious existences.

The past flows through my mind.

I've probably been remembering since I was five or six years old. In his limited and vague memory, Chi Ran never mentioned whether he was an apprentice or if he had any senior brother surnamed Yang.

But Yang Ruilin may indeed be Chi Ran's senior brother, after all, Ping, who deliberately became a dumb person and was silent all day long, learned to read under the protection of Yang Ruilin.

Chi Ran was hiding too many things, and Ping could feel it, and she noticed the clues.

Tonight, I'm going to ask for clarification.
