729. Strange and spooky town
The three of us talked and laughed all the way, which finally eased the awkward atmosphere a lot, but when we came to the town, we saw a strange sight, that is, the people here looked at us very strangely, as if they were pitying us.
This made me feel very strange, and I said, "Wang Li, have you been to this place?" ”
"I've been here, or when I went on the expedition, there were a few rebels around here at that time, but these rebels were all suppressed by us, most of them had already fled, and the thief leader was wiped out by me and Meng Yi." He said.
"Escaped?" I looked at him puzzled, but then I looked around, and I was relieved, so I said, "Maybe I'm looking at something wrong, so ...... Let's go first and buy something. ”
"Well, you go and walk around, the market in this place is still quite large, and there are a lot of interesting places, I'll go to the tavern, ...... first Not...... Order food first, and then I'll have a little wine first. He said.
I laughed, "You're not with us?" ”
"You husband and wife are affectionate, what am I doing next to you? Besides, I'm also kind of thinking about Xiaoya. He gritted his teeth, his face very heavy.
"After I go back, will I face Zhang Yan again?" I said.
He sighed: "No way, people's fate has been arranged sometimes, what we have to do is to live hard." ”
"Hahaha...... Yes, it's hard to live, to live! I tapped him on the shoulder, turned and walked away.
Diao Chan and I didn't get down on the horse, but Diao Chan didn't speak anymore, looking at Wang Li in the distance, Diao Chan said, "This place is not right......
"You feel it too?"
"Well, Xianggong, you see, the people here, their eyes are not normal at all." Diao Chan said jealously.
"Don't be suspicious, let's follow our own plan now, buy some necessities here, and go back to the tavern for dinner." I said.
"Well, hopefully it's all right." Diao Chan said with a smile.
I didn't say much, but at this moment I came to a market, and the market was really as Wang Li said, it was very lively, and it was full of people.
But I vaguely noticed that there were a lot of people among them, secretly peeking at us, although they were doing their own things, but the afterglow kept floating back and forth on us.
There is something wrong with the town and it is unfriendly everywhere.
I said in my heart that we are also here for a temporary meal, there is no need to meddle in things, and we will leave later, but I didn't expect Diao Chan to go towards the side of the alley, I walked over to take a look, but found that there was a little boy here, and he fell and retreated.
Diao Chan carried a package with her, took out a leaf from it, applied ointment to the boy's leg, and said, "Little brother, be careful when you walk next time, do you know how to apply cold water when you go back?" ”
The little boy was about eleven or twelve years old, with dark skin, but he had a pair of bright big eyes: "Big sister, you go quickly, here is ......"
"Ershunzi! Hurry up! An adult came over and interrupted the little boy's words, and the little boy immediately stood up with his arms on the wall: "Tiger, Brother Tiger......"
"What are you lazy here, hurry up!" The adult grabbed the little boy's ear.
I hurriedly said: "This brother, this is a child after all, you kiss it, besides, he also has no intention of falling, what are you punishing him for?" ”
"You bastard...... the other party was about to scold, but the moment he saw Diao Chan, a pair of eyes widened, "Yo, what a beautiful young lady, are you from out of town?" ”
"Yes, passing by here, I plan to spend the night and leave early tomorrow morning." Diao Chan smiled politely.
The man laughed: "That's right, the last thing we need in this town is a place to live, otherwise you will come to live in my yard?" ”
Although he was talking, his eyes kept wandering at Diao Chan's body, which made me very annoyed, I stood in front of Diao Chan, and I was going to teach him a lesson, but my heart said that there were too many people here, and it was not good to spread out, so I didn't do it.
"Thank you, big brother, isn't there an inn in the town, let's just stay there......" Diao Chan said.
"Miss is polite, our people here, they are all very hospitable! You're welcome, just stay here, come on, come on! ”
The other party directly wanted to drag Diao Chan, I immediately grabbed his wrist, I smiled: "Brother, where to live is our freedom, thank you for your kindness, maybe today we can't live anywhere." ”
The man had a lot of strength in his hands, but my strength was much greater than his, and he couldn't break free, so he smiled heaps on his face: "Since that's the case, then I'm not reluctant, not reluctant, not reluctant!" Hey! ”
I was no longer embarrassed to see that he had retreated, and at this time the little boy's mouth opened, and I could clearly see the shape of his mouth.
"Let's go."
That's what he meant.
And the adult's eyes also flashed with ferocity, and he gritted his teeth, as if he was about to swallow the two of us.
"Buy something to eat, I'm too hungry." I said.
Diao Chan on the side obviously sensed the bad atmosphere here, she nodded, didn't speak, but agreed.
Back at the tavern, I put down the things I bought, I bought a lot of things, some daily necessities, and some dry food, put them aside, and I saw Wang Li, who was already drunk.
Wang Li leaned against the wall on his back, his mouth was like chanting, and he kept calling: "Little girl, little girl, where are you...... Woowoo...... Little girl...... I miss you so much......"
I saw that the table of food and wine had not moved much, so I sat down as well.
"Xianggong, what should General Wang do, take him back later?"
"Let's stay here for one night first, it's not suitable for him to go back in such a state, and it will take ten miles to go back." I poured a glass of wine and said.
Diao Chan nodded, and took a small bite of a boiled vegetable leaf into his mouth.
"Guest officer, come on!" Xiao Er's voice approached from behind, and when he looked back, it turned out to be a lewd-looking, sharp-beaked monkey gills Xiao Er came over, holding a pot of rabbit meat in his hand, this seems to be stewed rabbit meat, the meat is cooked poorly, and the taste is not bad.
"This dish is ......"
"Are the two guest officers friends of this master?" Xiao Er said.
"Yes."
"That's right, just now this master asked for rabbit meat, but we just didn't have rabbits, and we happened to go down the mountain to a hunter, so we bought a rabbit and simmered it for a long time, and now it's done, I'm really sorry!" Xiao Er smiled with a smile on his face.
I threw him a piece of silver, and I said, "Little Er, you should be a local, let me ask you a few things?" ”
Seeing the silver, the little second smiled happily: "Guest officer, you say!" ”
"What's wrong with the people here?" I asked, "How do you feel different than you did two years ago?" ”
Two years ago, I naturally said it in Wang Li's tone, and I also wanted to talk about the tone.
But the little two smiled with a sneer: "Guest officer, you are too worried, it may be that there has been a flash flood recently, so the hearts of the big guys are very gloomy, many people's farmlands have been destroyed, that is the fruit of half a year's labor, you said that it was washed away by this flood, who can be happy!" ”
"That's right." I nodded and brought the rabbit meat to the table.
I immediately clipped a piece of Diao Chan: "Eat it." ”
"Don't want to eat meat...... Let's eat some vegetarian food as a concubine. She said.
"It's okay, don't eat it if you don't eat it, this taste is too strong, and you seem to like rabbits."
"Didn't you raise one in Nanjing City?" She pursed her lips and said.
I was also amused, looking at Diao Chan's appearance, it should be that she can't bear it.
However, when I was feasting, I just felt that the rabbit meat was getting more and more fragrant, so I couldn't help but eat a few more pieces, but after eating, the fast thing happened, and the picture in front of me began to distort, and the picture in front of me began to blur.
"Xianggong, Xianggong, what's wrong with you?" I heard Diao Chan's exclamation, "What are you doing?!" Hurry up and let me go! Xianggong, Xianggong, hurry up, Xianggong! ”
"Cicadas?" I staggered, only to feel that there were a few more people in front of me, but at this time, the back of my head throbbed violently, and the whole person lost consciousness.
