Chapter 15: Fate

By the time the acupuncture points were unraveled, and Fang Jinsheng climbed halfway up the mountain and returned to the ground with a body injury, it was already almost dark, and she didn't even see a living person.

The sporadic light of the sky squeezed in through the flourishing canopy overhead, which was sparsely populated and full of thorns, and she had been pricked many times along the way, but it was not the most chilling thing for her, but the most frightening thing was the blood that had been sprinkled on the leaves of the low shrubs and plants around her.

It's all dry, but it's just as shocking.

There were traces of a fight, apparently man-made, but there were no bodies, and it is not known if they were left by injuries or because they were taken away by wild beasts in the mountains.

After thinking about it, Fang Jinsheng felt a chill rise from the soles of his feet, panicked, staggered more and more, and the whole person became more and more trance-like.

She has always felt that her physical fitness can be called healthy and energetic, but for the first time in her life, she has encountered such a big change, and under the bad circumstances that have not been settled and waves have arisen, she has been weak and has helped the wind to such a point.

She couldn't find her way back, and she didn't plan to just go back.

She is also very afraid of death, but after all, she is a person who has died once, so when she is hard, she is thinking, no one cares about herself, she is dead, even if she is really unable to enter reincarnation as the ghost envoy said when she was reborn, it doesn't matter if she is a lonely ghost, her feelings are already very dull and numb, and there are not many people who love her, so why not be at peace with what she encounters.

But there was always someone who saved her from danger.

Wen Xin or Wen Lingjun.

She thought, since God has arranged such a play for her, according to the protagonist's aura setting, if she looks for it seriously, she should be able to find at least one of the two - she doesn't want to be a waste just waiting for others to pay, and she doesn't want to owe favors.

But what if you can't find it? What if something happens to you?

This is not the first time that these questions have emerged from the bottom of Fang Jinsheng's heart.

Following the bloodstains, she gradually walked into a small bamboo forest, picked up a bamboo that was just enough for her hand, removed the twigs and bamboo leaves, and used it as a crutch in her hand, by the way, to protect herself and strengthen her courage.

"People will always find it, as for myself, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, let it be fate."

This casual attitude and psychological effect really emboldened her, and after crossing the bamboo forest, she walked two miles in the dark, and saw the lights of others from a distance.

Fang Jinsheng opened his mouth and couldn't help but exhale violently, it was the first time he had experienced what it meant to be an infinite road.

The presence of lights in the mountains is not necessarily an auspicious omen, and most of them may be the campits in the mountains. However, Fang Jinsheng's luck is not bad, here is not into the southwest deep mountains, sporadically distributed a few small villages and small shops, Fang Jinsheng saw the lights from a double-storey inn, the area is not wide, but it can also be called a certain scale, the wooden pole at the door hangs two strings of long lanterns, the inn looks like a certain age, but not old, from the outside at first glance is very rough and sturdy, like a man born in the mountains.

Fang Jinsheng stood a few meters away from the door and watched, and could clearly hear the laughter and shouts of men drinking and punching from the inn, not the rough and rough voice of the mountain villager, but like a group of heroes of the rivers and lakes gathered together to act as friends of wine and meat who met for the first time.

Fang Jinsheng had no concept of silver and silver, so the money belonged to Liu Chaochao. So think about it carefully, now she doesn't have a few valuable things on her, and she will be blinded when she goes, so she turned her head, turned around, and found a farmer, and there was an old couple in this farmer's family, and when they saw Fang Jinsheng a miserable girl, they kindly kept her for a night.

Fang Jinsheng hadn't eaten for most of the day, and the old lady rewarded them with steamed buns and a plate of pickles, and it was a great gift for strangers to do this.

The old lady saw that Fang Jin was growing well, although the clothes were a little torn, but the material was not like ordinary people could afford to wear, it should be temporarily in trouble, drifting here, so the words were very polite, and there was a slight temptation.

"Girl, where are you going? Why is it just you, your family? ”

Fang Jinsheng nibbled on the steamed buns with pickles, choking so much that he almost couldn't lift his breath, the old lady hurriedly poured her a glass of cold water, and when she swallowed it cleanly, she said again: "You slow down, don't be in a hurry." Hey, my family is poor, and I don't have anything to entertain you. ”

Fang Jinsheng waved his hand, drank another sip of water, washed down the steamed buns squeezed in the esophagus, and breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't say that, you have already helped me a lot." She broke the steamed bun into two halves connected at the bottom, put the pickles in the middle and sandwiched them, and then took another bite, and for a moment she felt that it was even more delicious than the delicacies of the mountains and seas she ate in the palace.

"I'm from out of town, I'm visiting relatives in Qingzhou, but I ran into a little trouble on the way," she sighed, half-truthfully recounting, opening honest eyes, secretly paying attention to the old lady's eyes.

"I've been separated from my husband, and I'm looking for him—by the way, you've seen a man with a fierce face, a sword, and a dark dress...... It's hard to say what color, in short, the kind that is as black as his face, and he looks pretty good, have you ever seen such a person? ”

Fang Jinsheng muttered, as if he was afraid that the other party would not understand, stood up, held the steamed bun in his left hand, raised the palm of his right hand to a dozen centimeters above his head, and said, "It's probably so high, have you seen it?" ”

After listening to her description, the old lady couldn't think of anything but a cloud of black in her mind, and shook her head stunned: "I haven't seen it." ”

Fang Jinsheng suddenly looked like a deflated ball, went down, sat back and continued to nibble on steamed buns.

Seeing this, the old lady sighed, as if she remembered something: "But you can go to the 'five lakes and four seas' and ask, there are a lot of people there in the past two days, all of them are on the rivers and lakes, and the road is wide, maybe there will be news of your husband." ”

"All over the world?" When Fang Jinsheng heard it at first glance, he thought that the old lady who didn't look at Ding said an idiom casually, "What are you talking about?" ”

Old lady: "It's an inn, just a few steps away from our house." ”

Sure enough, that inn is still the key, but it's a pity that there is such a big inn in this place that is not a ghost or a ghost, who knows what kind of money he earns?

When Fang Jinsheng was alone, his IQ was on the line for a while, after all, there was no one to rely on at this time, so he could only rely on himself.

With such a conspicuous inn standing in the doorway, it would be too fake for her to pretend that she hadn't seen it. After eating the steamed bun in her hand, she wiped it on her body casually, and said, "Is the inn reliable?" After all, look at me...... Penniless, and a woman's family, I was always uneasy, so when I passed by just now, I didn't dare to go in and take a look......"

"This ......"

The old man frowned and thought for a while, "It should be reliable, it's been open for several generations, ask for news, don't charge money." I often hear the old man say that the heroes who rest in it are all heroes from all over the world, and this name also means so...... Ahem, we two old immortals don't dare to provoke others, but for so long, nothing has happened to this inn, I think, since it is a place to receive heroes, naturally even if they are covered, no one dares to make trouble there. But let me tell you, there are times when there is an evil door, I sometimes hear someone crying in the inn at night, ouch, I can't hear whether it's a man or a woman, a cry is a night, it's weird and scary......"

The old lady estimated that she hadn't chatted with young people for too long, and as soon as the conversation box opened, she kept popping out, as if she was planning to tell Fang Jinsheng all the ghost stories she had heard for most of her life. Although most of the back is nonsense, Fang Jinsheng feels that her previous analysis may have some truth.

After chatting late at night, the old man was too addicted, Fang Jinsheng finally invited this Bodhisattva away, and lay on the bed and was bitten by the damn mosquito for most of the night, sleeping intermittently and impetuously.

The next day was close to noon, Fang Jinsheng cleaned up and planned to go out, he wanted to go to thank others, but as soon as he entered the door, he didn't see anyone. Farming on a hot day can only be chosen in the morning and evening, thinking that these two should be busy with farm work.

There were two steamed buns on the table in the house, as well as a plate of cold salad, and the old lady should have seen that her taste was relatively heavy, so she washed this thing and added enough condiments, which tasted very delicious and refreshing, and it could be regarded as an addition to her meal.

After the meal was full, Fang Jinsheng touched all over his body, and found a chain on his wrist with a few small pearls on it, and he didn't know whether it was true or not, so he took it as his own intention and put it on the table. Then he closed the door, picked up the bamboo cane he picked up last night, and walked out.

Last night, I felt the lively "Five Lakes and Four Seas" inn from afar, but it was a lot quieter at this time, Fang Jinsheng thought that there was no one at first, and when he walked to the door, he found that it was not no one, but it was like a market.

Almost all of these people are fully armed, dressed neatly, most of them are men, with weapons on their bodies, they look like they are people in the rivers and lakes, and they don't know if they are used or not. One by one, they are like twenty-five or eighty-thousand, especially a few slightly younger ones who are arranging their arrow sleeves and tying their ponytails, exuding a sense of "high spirits", "confident and elegant" and "I am the most handsome in the world". When they saw Fang Jinsheng stupidly pulling a few pestles at the door of the inn, the pretense was even worse.

"Girl, are you looking for someone? How do you stand alone in the doorway? ”

Accosting is the nature that has been rooted in the bones of male compatriots for thousands of years, not to mention that the other party is still a girl with a good look.

Fang Jinsheng is well aware of this, and he still feels strange in his heart - in the Internet era, she doesn't go out at home, and she doesn't like to take selfies, this kind of treatment is quite rare.

This group of people seemed to get up after the sun burned their buttocks like her, it is estimated that they drank too much wine last night, and when they saw a defenseless and weak woman at the door, they suddenly woke up a lot. Another person also came over with a sword, this person was white, well-dressed, properly ironed, and a young man with good facial features.

He thought he was very humble and gentlemanly and walked in front of Fang Jinsheng, bowed his head slightly and said politely, and said: "Qinglu Men Yunqi, girl, this place is not where you should come, seeing that you are looking around blankly, you must be lost, I don't know where the girl's family lives?" The retinue below can escort the girl home. ”

Wow, while showing thoughtfulness, he also showed off his wealth by the way, both sullen and introverted and sharp, which is simply a model of pickled girls.

"Haha,"

Just when Fang Jinsheng wanted to use the words "Looking for a husband" to block this person's mouth, a short laugh suddenly came from behind Yun Qi, everyone was subconsciously attracted by this laughter, and turned their heads to look, only to see a person sitting crookedly on the stairs leading to the second floor in the house.

The man was in his twenties, with a high nose, thick eyebrows and long eyelashes, and messy hair. I can't say that he doesn't look good, but the smile on his face just gives people a very uncomfortable feeling. He still had a small bottle of wine in his hand, took a sip of the wine bottle, and smiled weirdly: "It is said that Yun Gongzi is suave, but now that I look at it, it is really true!" ”
