Chapter 0033 Stubborn Thief
The carriage continued to drive in the direction of the capital, Gu Youlan took out a book of water-attribute martial arts to study, and Bai Ze nestled in her arms and slept soundly with rhythmic snoring.
Bihe got the master's finger marriage, and she was full of intoxication with the sweetness of love.
Bai Yu hid in the cave of the Qiankun space since he crossed the Oolong Mountain, and he didn't know what to do.
Four sturdy horses pulled an ordinary carriage with the wind and dust all the way, and finally arrived in Fengjing, the capital of Baili, --- the next morning.
The carriage was collected in a remote corner one kilometer away from the city gate, and several people wandered to the city gate of Fengjing.
Bihe looked at the tall and majestic gate of the capital, and tears flowed from her eyes: "Queen Mother, I finally brought the princess back to you." Zhou Jie stepped forward and gently hugged Bihe, and rubbed her shoulder with distressed eyes.
In fact, he already knew from Bihe's mouth that the master was actually the little princess of Baili Country, when he knew that the master had lost his mother since he was a child, and was later sent by the emperor to a remote imperial tomb and was killed, Zhou Jie vowed to recover the blood debt for the master.
Gu Youlan looked at this seemingly familiar and unfamiliar city, and couldn't help but feel a little dazed in her heart.
Bai Ze gently licked her palm, and then arched in her arms to coax her.
Bai Ze seemed to be able to feel Gu Youlan's mood at this moment, tangled and bored and a trace of resentment, and instantly emitted a ray of auspicious light from its body, the auspicious light met the sunshine in the sky, shining on Gu Youlan's body and suddenly felt comfortable, and the slightest resentment was swept away.
Gu Youlan knew that she almost had a demon seed in her heart again, so she hurriedly hugged Bai Ze tightly in her arms gratefully, lowered her head and kissed Bai Ze's small forehead.
At this time, Bai Yu didn't know when he came out of the space, and walked into the city gate with a fan and a gentleman's steps.
The capital is full of traffic, you can hear the cries of the vendors everywhere, the pedestrians on the side of the road are bustling, from time to time there will be the carriages of the wealthy families passing by the road, the shops on both sides of the street are luxuriously decorated, the goods are dazzling, the son, the entourage, the young lady, the maidservant can be seen everywhere, a good faction of prosperity.
Several people walked forward unhurriedly with the flow of people, and Gu Youlan couldn't help but think about the prosperous scene of the capital.
In the future, it is necessary to strengthen the Danyimen and create its own dark forces, not only to establish its own information channels and economic hubs between the capital and major cities.
It is also necessary to find a suitable place for Danyimen to settle down as soon as possible, and at least have a place of its own in the capital for now.
In the future, there will be more people gradually, and I can't always stay in the space... And the main thing is that she has to go back to the imperial city.
As for how to return to the imperial city and find those murderers to take revenge and get back everything that belongs to her, she still needs to make a careful plan......
It's better to act than to act.
After thinking about it, he stopped Zhou Jie and asked him and Bihe to find a few properties for sale first, and then found an inconspicuous inn with Bai Yu and asked for two upper rooms.
Called the inn's Xiao Er sent hot water to take a bath, just entered the bath bucket to soak for a while, then heard the door of the door "click", and then the door opened a small crack.
Gu Youlan carefully came out of the bathtub, thinking to herself, who was so bold and dared to come in quietly while she was bathing? So he casually put on a long skirt and hid behind the screen to hide his breath.
At this time, I saw a boy's head poking out of the crack in the door, and the boy looked left and right in the room and found that there was no one, so he slipped in lightly, saw the purse on the table, and cautiously stepped forward, picked up the purse and turned around to leave the door.
Suddenly, an afterimage flashed, and a beautiful girl stood at the door of the room.
The boy was stunned for a moment, then he rushed to the window with a quick stride, intending to jump out of it.
Gu Youlan instantly dodged and floated behind the boy, grabbing the boy's right hand and skillfully buckling it.
"Oops! It hurts, you let go, let go! The boy shouted with a grin.
As soon as the words fell, Bai Yu flashed in from the next room, and when he saw Gu Youlan grabbing a boy in his hand, and the boy was still holding a purse in his left hand, he instantly understood.
Then he raised his eyebrows and hooked his lips and smiled, turned around and sat on the chair next to him in a chic manner, cocked Erlang's legs and shook the fan elegantly, shaking and waiting to see the lively leisure.
Gu Youlan rolled her eyes when she saw Bai Yu's nonchalant behavior, and then raised her arms and shrugged to let go of the boy, and the boy lay on the ground.
Picking up the purse on the ground and stepping on the boy's back with his foot, Gu Youlan asked condescendingly, "Say it!" Who are you? Why did you steal from me? ”
The boy snorted and lay on the ground pretending to be dead, as if a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water.
Gu Youlan looked at the boy and suddenly felt a little crying and laughing: "What? Not going to say? Or are you not afraid of death? ”
The boy remained silent.
Suddenly, a silver light flashed, and a silver needle hit the boy's sore point. Suddenly, the boy convulsed in pain, biting his lip tightly, and his eyes were unyielding.
It lasted for about 2 minutes, the boy fainted in pain, and Gu Youlan condensed a column of water to wake the boy up.
When the boy woke up, he found that he was not in pain, and he did not find any wounds on his body, and he saw that a man and a woman in the room were looking at him, and he knew that he had met a master today, so he simply sat cross-legged on the ground, and looked at the roof with his neck tilted.
Gu Youlan looked at this boy who was only fourteen or fifteen years old, his clothes were patched and his hair was unkempt and thin, and he looked malnourished because he had not eaten enough all year round, and suddenly felt pity.
"Hey, kid, what's your name?" Turning to sit on the chair, Gu Youlan looked at the boy with her hands on her chest and asked.
"Who is a child? You're the kid, huh! Don't come to this set, if you want to kill or scrape, whatever! The boy turned his head and tilted his neck to look at the sky.
Gu Youlan looked at this boy who stole his own things and looked arrogant, and instantly felt a little funny.
Immediately looking at the boy's thin face, Gu Youlan shook her head and didn't ask, turned around and walked out of the door.
After a while, Gu Youlan came back again, and then the little second of the inn walked in with a large bowl of noodles respectfully, and after putting the large porcelain bowl on the table, he squinted at the boy, turned around and closed the door and went out.
"Hungry, huh? Eat! ”
The boy saw Xiao Er come in with a large bowl of noodles, and the aroma of the noodles after the oil penetrated into his nose without hindrance, and he began to swallow his saliva and stood up unconsciously.
At this time, I suddenly heard the girl let herself eat noodles, and I couldn't help but be stunned, and then looked at the noodles with my eyes, and then sat down on the ground again.
"What? You don't eat? Not hungry? Gu Youlan asked in surprise, she obviously found that he was looking at the noodles and swallowing saliva, why didn't she give him food?
"Hmph, you can't be humiliated!" The boy replied with a righteous expression.
Gu Youlan hurriedly covered the corners of her lips with her hand and smiled lightly: "I didn't let you die, I just let you eat noodles, if you don't eat it, I'll throw it away!" As he spoke, he picked up the porcelain bowl and prepared to go out.
"Alas! That one... If you don't want it, give it to me, don't fall out! The boy hurriedly stood up and said, then lowered his head in embarrassment.
Looking at the yellow-skinned boy in front of him, although his original intention was to steal her things, Gu Youlan did not have a trace of boredom, but looked at the boy arrogantly and with an unyielding expression, and couldn't help but feel a little good, thinking that he was also a poor child.
"Then you can eat." After speaking, Gu Youlan handed the porcelain bowl to the boy.
"I stole from you, and you didn't send me to the official? What else do you want me to eat? The boy took the porcelain bowl and asked incredulously.
"You eat first, and then tell me why you stole me." Gu Youlan said softly.
The boy looked at the beautiful girl in front of him, and couldn't help but feel that she was different from those young ladies from big families, looking at her sincere eyes, he suddenly felt a trace of warmth, so he said hesitantly.
It turned out that the boy's name was Wu Yang, his family lived in a village near the capital, his father was a mercenary, when he was ten years old, his father encountered a high-level spirit beast and died during a mission, and his mother learned that his father died after he fell ill, and left their brother and sister behind in a few days.
After losing his parents, he and his sister were often bullied in the village, so he took his sister to the capital to join his uncle, who not only denied them, but also kicked them out of the house.
He took his sister to be helpless, so he began to beg along the street and became a beggar, and later followed a group of little beggars to live in a dilapidated temple outside the capital, living a precarious life every day.
In the past few days, his sister has had a cold, he has no money to buy medicine, and he was just about to go into the city to get some food for his sister, when he saw Gu Youlan and his party, and guessed that she was a young lady from a rich family, so he carefully followed all the way to the inn.
Seeing that Gu Youlan asked for hot water and was ready to take a bath, she mustered up the courage to steal some money to buy medicine for her sister while she was taking a bath.
Wu Yang finished speaking in one breath, then lowered his head and looked at his shoes with leaky toes.
After Gu Youlan heard Wu Yang's story, she immediately sighed silently in her heart, it seems that she is really a poor child, and she doesn't really want to steal her things, so she has to make this decision in order to save her sister.
However, it stands to reason that although the façade of this inn is not large, it is not negligent in control, and it can actually let a little beggar sneak in, and there are some means to come to this Wuyang, but looking at the look of Xiao Er just now, she should know Wuyang, but she does not intend to pursue it.
After thinking about it, he said to Wu Yang: "You eat the noodles first, and take me to see your sister after eating!" Gu Youlan looked at the boy in front of her with pity, and suddenly had an idea in her heart...
Wu Yang heard that this beautiful young lady was going to see his sister, so he hurriedly finished eating the noodles quickly, and then said with a wipe of his sleeve to his mouth.
"Miss, are you really willing to save my sister? If you save my sister, I'll make you a cow and a horse! After speaking, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times.
Gu Youlan hurriedly helped Wu Yang up, and then glanced at Bai Yu, and the two followed Wu Yang to the outside of the city.
Out of the capital turned left, walked nearly a kilometer or so into a forest, the woods are full of grass-covered ownerless graveyards, the graveyard is scattered with black feathers of crows, the three of them walked by, the startled crows scattered and fled, and instantly there was a croaking sound in the sky above the forest.
After following Wuyang for a short while, he faintly saw a dilapidated ancient courtyard with a collapsed wall in the depths of the woods.
Wu Yang pushed open the old wooden door of the ancient courtyard, the wooden door made a creaking sound, and after the door was pushed open, he saw a temple with half of the roof missing, and the temple was leaking everywhere, and thick snow was piled up everywhere.
When I came to the bottom of the temple, I saw a thin girl lying on the withered yellow straw.
The girl was about eleven or twelve years old, wearing a leaky cotton jacket that could not be seen, her sallow face was covered with dense blisters, her dry lips were breathing weakly, and the cold wind blew the girl subconsciously shivering.
