Into the Red Dust (5)
Lancheng is located in the south of the Luanling Empire, all the way down, it is the Xingfeng Mountain that connects the Nanfeng Empire and the Luanling Empire, and if you walk from the Xingfeng Mountain, you will reach the border of the Nanfeng Country.
This Xingfeng Mountain also has a great origin, the most beautiful flower in the world, Jinling flowers, grows in Xingfeng Mountain, it will bloom on the seventh day of March every year, many people go to visit, but they don't see it, the legend is so legendary, whether it really exists, it is not easy to say.
It's early winter, and if it's March, I can stay for two more days to find the leader of this hundred flowers.
Qin Fan and I didn't have much money combined, so we could barely buy some dry food to keep us from starvation.
"Sister Lin! You see, this is my new place, and if there's no one, we'll rest for the night tonight, right? Qin Fan pointed to a ruined temple and said, it seems that no one has been here for a long time, the door is in tatters, Qin Fan and I pushed the door open, and saw that it was already covered with a thick layer of ash, and there was nothing in the temple, only a table, a rag, and a pile of dry straw.
I didn't go far with Qin Fan, it is estimated that I am still near Lancheng, rest tonight, and set off tomorrow, I observed, this broken temple is still okay except for a little leakage, I used rags to block the door slightly, and made a simple bed with straw, I thought I had to pick up some branches and come back, and make a fire at night, otherwise it would be so cold, and I would definitely not be able to get through.
"Qin Fan, I'll go out and pick up some branches, you are waiting for me to come back, you must not run around, you know?" I carefully told Luo Qinfen, she and I nodded obediently, it has always been like this, she listens to everything I say, very sensible, I smiled, and gave her the only piece of steamed bread in my arms, which I just bought from the villagers.
I thought for a moment and said, "If you're hungry, eat some, and I'll see if I can find something good to come back, and I'll be back soon, before it gets completely dark." ”
"Good!" Luo Qinfen hugged the steamed bun and nodded vigorously.
After going out, I also checked the door to make sure that there was nothing wrong with it, and then I left with peace of mind.
The cold wind blew, blowing my face was stiff, I looked around, picked up some branches on the road, and a broken kettle, which was not a small harvest, and walked for a long time, as if I heard the sound of the water, it is only early winter, the river should not freeze yet, just right, put a little and take it back, if you are thirsty you can still drink, I am very happy, I ran in the direction of the water.
But before he could take two steps, he saw a figure standing under a tree by the river, dressed in white, looking like a handsome boy, how could he appear in the wilderness at this hour?
I looked at the sky, and it was still a little bit darker, and I walked over, and the sound of stepping on the grass might have disturbed him, and he turned around.
It happened to be in line with my eyes, there seemed to be a lot of troubles hidden between his eyebrows, but it was also fleeting, maybe he looked very cold, and there was always a feeling of rejecting people thousands of miles away, but his eyes widened, and he seemed to be very surprised, to be reasonable, I was also surprised.
Isn't this the immortal I saw on the roof that day?
"Xiao Lin......" He seemed to be in disbelief and spoke tremblingly.
I smiled, I ran into him now, I couldn't let him go anymore, I waved to him, and ran over happily, and shouted, "Immortals! What a coincidence, we meet again! ”
"Immortals?" He repeated my words in confusion.
"Yes, yes, that day, I saw you on the roof, and I chirped and flew away, so powerful, aren't you an immortal!" I said excitedly, dancing with my hands and making a gesture to fly away.
He said helplessly: "That's light work." ”
"Ahh Light work! Terrible! I really complimented me.
"You ......" he hesitated for a moment before asking, "Don't you know me?" ”
"Know what? Immortals? I smiled, "I don't know, but it's okay, I know you now, hello, my name is Luo Qinlin, what's your name?" ”
"Call me Master." He looked at me calmly and said, I really admire him for being able to say such a ridiculous thing in a serious tone, we have never met, how can we call him master.
I waved my hand, just as he wanted to take advantage of me, but he couldn't let him succeed, he was tall, his hands were always behind his back, he looked cold, I looked at him, but my eyes were attracted by the jade flute on his waist.
This flute looks like it's worth a fortune.
If you sell it, you should be able to get a lot of money.
I just stared straight at his waist, and he noticed my gaze, looked down, and saw his own jade flute.
"This ...... Can you lend me a look? I asked cautiously, I don't know why, I was very scared when I asked this question, and my heart was beating fast.
And he was silent for two seconds, and said in a deep voice, "Okay." ”
After saying that, I was about to reach out to solve it, but at this moment, my head tingled.
"This flute is so beautiful! Can you lend me a look? It was a little girl's voice, and it seemed somewhat familiar.
"I can't." Then, another indifferent male voice, but it didn't sound very old.
Who is it?
Who's having the conversation?
I looked at him, but he had already stretched out the flute in front of me, and looked at me lightly, no, not like this, I pushed his hand away, not like this, you answered wrong!
I looked at his stunned eyes and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." After saying that, I didn't know what was going on, so I turned around and ran.
He seemed to want to catch up.
"Xiao Lin!" He called me, and I did not hear it.
"Hey, young master, long time no see." A dark shadow fell from the sky and landed in front of him.
He frowned, but his eyes were on my back, but he could only watch me run away.
"Get out of the way!" He said coldly.
"Alas, alas, this is not good, the acting pavilion master's order, if you find the young master, you have to bring it back immediately." The dark shadow said with a grin.
He had barely taken a small step before the shadow drew his sword and placed it in the middle of the road.
"Linxia!" He turned his head to look at the shadow.
The black shadow immediately let go of his hand, the sword fell to the ground, the black shadow smiled and opened his mask, revealing a delicate man's appearance, Lin Xia scratched his head: "No, don't call your name like that, be considerate, okay!" It's not easy for those of us to be killers, if you don't go back, you'll see blood, add one more sentence, warm reminder, the ghost doctor has been arrested. ”
"Master?" This sentence moved him slightly.
Lin Xia nodded: "The acting pavilion master said, I can't see you today, and tomorrow the ghost doctor's head will be hung at the gate of Lancheng, you also know, the temper of the acting pavilion master...... Besides, aren't you seriously injured and haven't healed, otherwise I wouldn't dare to come to you, you say, I'll slap you now, how many days can you faint? ”
"Linxia!" This time, there was a little more anger in his tone.
Lin Xia covered his ears, he can indeed make the young master angry like this, only him, but he still looks like he is not afraid of heaven and earth, he clasped his hands and said: "So, don't force me to do it, come with me yourself, by the way, put away your Ying Xi flute, the acting pavilion master doesn't know about you, he didn't find it on the corpse of the former pavilion master, but he was angry for a few days, you didn't see his face, it stinks very hahahaha, it makes me laugh for a few days, ah, and, I may have to talk nonsense again, If you don't want to kill the little girl just now, you better don't look for her again, Yu Ge, the young master of Yingxi Pavilion. ”
Yu Ge raised his eyes, his hand tightly holding the jade flute.
After a few seconds of confrontation, he threw off his sleeves and left, Lin Xia smiled slightly, picked up the sword on the ground and followed, shouting while chasing his mouth: "Young master, young master, you wait for me, your injury is not healed, why are you walking so fast?" After walking a few steps, he looked in my direction, and I was so frightened that I quickly hid behind the tree, and the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he quickly chased after him.
Actually, I didn't hear a lot, I ran halfway through, I felt that my behavior was too rude, and I wanted to go back to explain to him, but I only heard the last sentence, the young master of the Shadow Xi Pavilion Yu Ge?
What is that?
It sounds like a charlatan.
Forget it, I have a vague hunch that if I say goodbye this time, I may not see each other again in the future.
I walked to the river with the kettle, and when it was full of water, I was ready to go back, and when I went back, it was already completely dark, and in order to be able to keep warm tonight, I still picked up some more branches on the side of the road, and felt that it was almost enough, before returning to the door of my broken temple.
The door was open, and my heart seemed to skip a beat, and I hurried in, and saw the darkness inside the ruined temple, and by the moonlight, I could see that the straw was empty.
"Qinfen?" I noticed that my voice was shaking and my heart was beating wildly.
What happened? Why is Qin Fan gone?
"Luo Qinfen!" I shouted, and the wind whirred from the ruined temple.
I let go of my hand, what branches were scattered on the ground, I hurriedly rushed to the outside of the temple, and directly collided with the people outside the temple, and when I came back to my senses, I found that it was Luo Qinfen, holding his head, and sitting on the ground aggrieved.
"Sister......" she called me softly.
I hurriedly crawled over and hugged her, and hugged her into my arms, which scared me to death, and I thought something had happened to Qin.
"Sister, why did you come back so late? It's getting dark, I'm so scared. She said aggrievedly, sobbed a few times, and then cried out loud, I hurriedly comforted her, yes, leaving her here alone, how can I leave her alone, it's all my fault.
I hugged her guiltily: "I'm sorry, my sister came back late, and in the future, my sister will never leave you alone." ”
"Really?" Qin Fan suddenly stopped crying and looked at me with a serious face.
I nodded, and she burst into tears and pounced.
Yes, I took her to escape, so she only has me to rely on.
