Wild Ghost 4

After lunch, Bai Wanwan was left alone in the courtyard to sit on the steps and look at the noon sun and fall into deep thought.

She really couldn't think of any good way to make money, so she had to stand up and open the door against the sun, planning to go out and see what opportunities there were.

At noon, everyone was basically working on the ridges, and the children were taking a nap at home, but she walked around the path without meeting anyone.

The village is close to the mountain, and it doesn't take long for Bai Wanwan to feel a little dizzy.

It wasn't hot on the surface, but heat stroke was still a possibility, she was afraid that she would be so cold, so she hurriedly found a shade to squat, and after squatting for a while, the feeling of being dark in front of her eyes became heavier and heavier.

Don't...... I finally went out of the door, and you just burned me to death? Don't I want to lose face???

Fortunately, she remembered that there was a creek nearby, which should be cool. Although she is not so bold as to take a bath in the field at noon in the middle of the day, it is still okay to wash her face and sober up.

I stayed up and walked to the stream, but the water was clean. Bai Wanwan took the handkerchief out of her arms and dipped it in water, then unscrewed it and pounced on her face.

As soon as the cool stream touched his face, the whole person felt alive again.

Bai Wanwan sat on the stone by the stream, listening to the cicadas on the trees next to her, and even felt a little quiet for a while.

However, the years were not quiet, and with a shake of her hand, the handkerchief rushed downstream along the stream.

???

Although it is said that the handkerchief is not valuable, but even if the family is poor, you have to learn to be diligent and thrifty, and if you can pick it up, you must pick it up.

She didn't bother to take a detour, so she went straight down the calf-down stream, and below was a gravel beach paved with clean pebbles, in which the stream swam in a very pleasant view.

The plain white handkerchief was stuck right in the middle of the pebbles.

Bai Wanwan lifted her trouser leg and was about to pick it up, but the handkerchief was picked up by another outstretched hand.

It was a pair of unsightly hands, with well-defined and slender bones, which should have been pleasing to the eye, but they were covered with many scars and small cuts, and the fingertips had a thick layer of calluses.

Following the hands, Bai Wanwan raised her eyes and saw that she happened to meet the man's eyes.

The young man in the black-haired robe, with a sword hanging from his waist and leather boots under his feet, his facial features are not immature, but he reveals a bit of the calmness of a young man, and it is a little familiar tear mole under his eyes.

If it weren't for the fear of scaring people, Bai Wanwan would be so frightened that she would directly throw herself into the water and hug people's thighs and shout Dad. And in reality, even if you can't do this mentally retarded thing, Bai Wanwan's expression is still very subtle.

"This handkerchief, yours?" He asked, his voice mellow and clear.

"Yes, yes, yes, it's mine." Bai Wanwan gritted her back molars and quickly thought about what she could talk about, but she smiled and asked, "This hand is yours?" ”

“……”

“?”

"No, no, no, I didn't say anything." Bai Wanwan smiled awkwardly and waved her hand, taking the handkerchief in the man's hand. For a moment, she wanted to drown herself in the stream.

Embarrassed, she retreated, forgetting that she was still stepping on the water, and there was a pebble behind her. As soon as the soles of Bai Wanwan's feet slipped, he could almost only explain his front teeth here.

The young man didn't pity the jade at all, so he looked thoughtfully at the white silk that fell out of a beautiful splash in the water.

"You don't have to be so polite."

“???”

No, I can explain, I didn't want to kneel for you!! I just slipped, slipped, you know!

Bai Wanwan's face changed wonderfully, and the idea of embarrassing laughter was almost untenable, she could only pretend to be reserved and gentle herself, got up and rubbed her knees, and pinched the handkerchief that was not as big as her face in an attempt to block her face.

"Can I ask Childe's name?"

"Why?"

"The slave family is surprised to see your bones, it must be a martial arts wizard, and the slave family has a special gift of the Nine Yin True Scripture to people who are destined......"

No, she can't make it up.

With this casual nonsense and no standard excuse, she thought that the other party would refuse.

Unexpectedly, the other party's face was happy, and there was a faint hint of expectation and surprise: "Is it?" I didn't expect the girl to be a master in the world. ”

Bai Wanwan: "......"

He doesn't seem to have a good brain.

At this point, Bai Wanwan could only stubbornly continue to talk nonsense: "So, what about your name?" ”

"My name is Xiao Yu."

"Uh-oh." The white silk is extremely perfunctory.

She is actually not interested in the other party's name, mainly because after knowing the name, the relationship between the two people will be a little familiar.

"I don't know the name of the master, where is the teacher?" Xiao Yu then spoke.

Expert...... Bai Wanwan covered her face with a handkerchief and muttered slightly for a while before she spoke: "The master is not me, it is my master, and the Nine Yin True Scripture was also passed on to me by him, my name is Bai Wanwan, and I live in the village at the foot of the mountain." ”

"I see." Xiao Yu showed an expression of sudden realization, and it took a long time for his face to show embarrassment: "I got lost in this mountain field, I don't know if the white girl can give me directions, he will be grateful." ”

"Are you leaving, are you in a hurry to go somewhere?"

"Go to the capital to join the army and show your ambition."

Just by listening to the name, I know that the capital must be 108,000 miles away from this dilapidated mountain village, Xiao Yu walked like this, and I didn't know that Ma Yue would be able to touch it again in the Year of the Monkey, and besides, she would be cold next month.

Bai Wanwan's brain was quickly looking for a reason for him to stay, and it took her a long time before she spoke: "But I haven't given you the Nine Yin True Scripture yet?" If the time is not urgent, can you stay nearby for a few more days, the tutor left early, and I can't remember where I lost it, so I can only look for it more. ”

Xiao Yu seemed to want to refuse, but looking at Bai Wanwan's expectant face, he couldn't bear it, and he didn't understand where this intolerance came from.

“… Don't worry, the white girl will look for it slowly, anyway, Xiao is sleeping in the open air everywhere, and it doesn't hurt to play around here for a few more days. ”

Bai Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief, and left him for the time being, anyway.

She walked to the stream, and put her shoes and socks out to dry in the sun, and Xiao Fang avoided some unnatural politeness.

Although in this era, it is not clear to look at a girl's feet, but I always feel that the atmosphere is still a little weird in broad daylight.

"What were you doing around here?" She asked.

"It's hot, the heat is unbearable, come to the water and wash your face."

Bai Wanwan bent her eyes and smiled: "Me too, the sun just now directly stunned me... Ah, by the way, you don't have a place to live around here, do you? There's no place to stay in the village, so ......."

"White girl don't worry, I can live in a nearby town."

The town... It's quite far from the village, and it takes about a morning to ride a horse or an ox cart.
