Chapter 353: Xanadu
Well. The man in the blue shirt nodded in agreement.
Seeing the gray-shirted man leave the cave, Xiao Ying searched the money bag on his body and found that he had been robbed.
He searched all over his body, but he couldn't find anything of value.
The bunched hair on Nanfeng Ling's head looked quite valuable.
Xiao Ying approached Nanfeng Ling, "Ling'er, lend me your golden step to use." ”
"What are you doing with it?" Nanfeng Ling took it off his head and shook it.
"You'll find out later." He took the golden step shake from Nanfeng Ling's hand and threw out the iron cage.
"Wow! Who dropped this golden step? Xiao Ying shouted exaggeratedly.
The man in the blue shirt turned around.
He turned around and saw Jin Bu Shao underground, and stepped forward quickly.
Jin Bu Shao is only an inch away from the iron cage.
When the man squatted on the ground, about to pick up the golden step, Xiao Ying stretched out his hand to the iron cage and knocked the man unconscious.
He grabbed the man's shirt, moved the man's body forward, and took the iron key from the man's waist.
Before Nan Fengling could react, Xiao Ying had already opened the iron door with the key, took her hand, and walked out quickly.
Outside the cave, there was a forest, and I didn't know where to go.
"What should I do?" Nanfeng Ling looked anxious, especially afraid of running into the gray-shirted man who had gone out to help them get food.
"No matter, let's move forward, get out of here first." Xiao Ying grabbed the South Wind Spirit and ran into the forest.
They ran forward with no life, and only stopped to rest when they couldn't run anymore.
The two rested under a towering tree.
Xiao Ying was a little puzzled and said, "Why should I run?" I know martial arts! ”
"How do I know why you're running, I'm running with you."
Xiao Ying thought for a while, and finally came up with a reasonable explanation, "It may be that I used to run a lot when I offended people, and I forgot that I knew martial arts for a while." ”
Nan Fengling waved his hand, "Don't talk about these useless things, how should we go down the mountain?" ”
A gentle breeze blows through the trees, and the leaves sway and rustle
"I guess I'm going to stay in the mountains and feed the wolves."
Nanfeng Ling wanted to cry without tears, "No, I haven't eaten enough yet." ”
Xiao Ying stood up from the ground and stretched out his hand to the south wind spirit, "Let's go forward first, maybe we will die and be reborn." ”
Nan Fengling thumped his legs and said with a look of grievance: "I can't walk anymore." ”
"I'll carry you." Xiao Ying didn't say a word and squatted down.
"Forget it, I'll still walk, if I exhaust your physical strength, who will protect me."
She reluctantly stood up, took Xiao Ying's hand and said, "You can just hold me." ”
Xiao Ying chuckled and grabbed her shoulder, "Ling'er knows that she feels sorry for me?" ”
"Who feels sorry for you?"
"Isn't it?"
"Save some effort, I won't be able to carry you for a while."
Xiao Ying obediently closed her mouth.
The two walked forward for a long time before they walked out of this dense forest.
The view is wide, and the sound of the stream slowly enters the ears.
They saw a hut a few hundred meters ahead of the stream.
The hut is covered by sparse green bamboo.
Nan Fengling excitedly grabbed Xiao Ying's hand, "We have been saved." ”
"Leave us to die and live, God still favors us."
"What nonsense are you talking about, hurry up, I'm dying of hunger." Nanfeng Ling nudged him urgently.
Xiao Ying pulled Nanfeng Ling across the planks of the creek and walked towards the cabin.
It was almost time for dinner, and the smell of food wafted from the cabin.
They pushed aside the thin bamboo in front of them, and the smell of food came to their noses.
"I'm so hungry."
"Wait a little longer, and you'll have something to eat right away." Xiao Ying turned back to comfort.
Nan Fengling nodded slightly.
They walked through the bamboo forest, around the wooden fence that surrounded the hut, and walked to the main entrance.
A wooden board hanging above the main entrance is engraved with the words "Laughing Spring Breeze".
Xiao Ying raised her voice and shouted, "Is there anyone?" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a man poked his head out of the window of the hut on the right side of the courtyard, "What's the matter?" ”
The man was about forty years old and wore an ink-colored shirt.
He has a kind face, distinct facial features, and a pair of good-looking peach blossom eyes under his sword eyebrows.
The man rolled up his sleeves and was cooking.
Xiao Ying was afraid that telling the truth would intimidate people, so she didn't want them to stay, so she could only lie: "I went to this mountain with my lady, and I didn't get lost, I wonder if my predecessors can take us in for one night?" ”
"Come in." The man replied in a deep voice.
With permission, Xiao Ying pulled Nan Fengling and pushed open the wooden door woven with thin bamboo in front of him.
The wooden door creaked open, and the man came out of the dining room with a tray.
Three dishes and one soup were placed in the tray.
The man looked at the two of them squarely and said softly: "If the two of you don't dislike it, let's eat it together." ”
"I don't dislike it." Nanfeng Ling was busy responding.
The man smiled and turned to walk into the room.
The two followed.
The man put the food on the table in the house, turned to the two people by the door, and said, "Come and sit down first, and I'll go get two more pairs of dishes and chopsticks." ”
Xiao Ying nodded at the man.
The two sat down at the round table and waited only for a moment, when the man came in with two pairs of chopsticks.
He placed the dishes and chopsticks in front of the two of them, found a place to sit down again, and then said, "Eat first, if it's not enough, I'll do it later." ”
Xiao Ying swallowed as she looked at the fragrant food in front of her, "We don't have the money to pay you for the time being, but don't worry, tomorrow we will go down the mountain, and we can pay you double." ”
"I don't take cash."
"And what do you want?" Nan Fengling asked.
"I don't want anything."
Hearing the man say this, the two didn't dare to move the chopsticks.
Seeing their concerns, the man picked up some vegetarian dishes and put them in his mouth to chew, swallowed them and said, "Don't worry, the food is not poisonous." ”
Xiao Ying and Nan Fengling glanced at each other.
In the next second, the two picked up the bowl, picked up the wooden chopsticks, and devoured it.
"Big brother, your cooking skills are better than the chef in the restaurant."
"Ling'er said yes." Xiao Ying echoed.
With that, they continued to bury their heads in their feasts.
In just a moment, the food in front of him was swept away.
After they had eaten and drunk enough, the man smiled and asked, "Are you really lost?" ”
"In fact, I was kidnapped by mountain bandits." Xiao Ying explained.
Hearing this, the man nodded thoughtfully, got up and cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks.
"I don't know what the seniors call them?" Xiao Ying asked again.
The words and deeds of the man in front of him are different from ordinary people, and Xiao Ying always has the illusion that he is a hidden master.
"Song Heng." The man replied unhurriedly.
"Xiao Ying."
After Xiao Ying's introduction, Nan Fengling then said: "My name is Nan Fengling. ”
"Hmm." The man replied softly and walked out.
Seeing the man's figure disappear, Nan Fengling turned his face and spread his hands helplessly towards Xiao Ying.
After dinner, night gradually fell.
The starry sky seen in the mountain seems to be completely different from what you see below.
Maybe it's the high mountain, but the stars you see here are really many and bright.
The evening breeze in the mountains is also particularly cold.
A cold wind gusted in from the window.
Nan Fengling sat in front of the window of the wing room and couldn't help but sneeze.
She gathered her clothes and got up and walked to the bed.
For some reason, living in this lodge is more secure than being in the palace.
