Chapter 109: Companions
As soon as he got out of the door of the inn, Ding Qin quickly increased his speed and rushed directly towards Wu Yangyu. It's noon now, and according to the habits of the people in the neighborhood, after lunch, there will be a lunch break. During the nearly three-hour lunch break, very few people went out.
Just like in the evening, the lunch break is also a period of high incidence of various cases.
If that woman wants to go to Kaiyuan City, she will definitely pass through Wuyang Yu. According to the calculation of ordinary people's footsteps, she should arrive at Wuyangyu about an hour later than herself. In that case, it's the most dangerous time.
There was a faint uneasiness in Ding Qin's heart. Although the woman's safety is not within her responsibility, of course, it is better to avoid things that can be avoided.
The closer you get to Wuyangyu, the fewer pedestrians there are. When I arrived at the mountain pass of Wuyangyu, I basically didn't see anyone anymore.
The dense woods should give people a sense of quiet and peaceful, but inexplicably, Ding Qin has a sense of gloom.
The woman hadn't arrived yet.
To make sure there were no victims, he carefully checked his surroundings. No fresh blood was found, no signs of fighting or struggling, and nothing suspicious.
I hope that the woman didn't come out for the time being because she didn't have company, right? Ding Qin actually had such a thought in his heart.
"It seems that you still care about that little girl. The bone soul laughed in the sea of Ding Qin's knowledge, "I haven't seen you so enthusiastic." But to be honest, that little girl looks quite standard, except that her personality may be slightly spicy, everything else should be fine. You didn't have to say no at the time, maybe you two could still make some sparks along the way......"
Ding Qin said angrily, "Don't mess around." I just don't want anything to happen to her. ”
"Then why don't you care if something happens to others? Besides, aren't you going to Chiyan Mountain? In this way, you missed some trips. The bone soul didn't mean to be forgiving, and kept joking with Ding Qin.
Ding Qin wasn't actually angry. This guy of the bone soul comes up with this kind of indecent language from time to time.
However, when the bone soul said this, Ding Qin couldn't help but think of Xiao Rou.
I don't know how Xiaorou is doing now, and whether Feng Lei handed over his letter to her.
A trace of tenderness slowly appeared in Ding Qin's heart, and this feeling actually made a smile appear on the corner of his mouth.
The bone soul was naturally sensitive to this. What Ding Qin was thinking in his head, he could basically feel it. Knowing the sea of knowledge, he smiled a little evilly, and the bone soul said, "Well, in fact, I also think that Xiao Rou is also very good." And compared to these two people, I also prefer Xiaorou. I said Ding Qin, you are not a small boss, this love between men and women, it should not be considered that it cannot be examined......"
"Shut up for me!" Ding Qin directly interrupted the bone soul's words, "Why are you really getting older and more indecent." ”
I waited for more than an hour, and seeing that there were more and more people coming and going in Wuyangyu, I really didn't find any trace of Xiaorou. Ding Qin breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, turned around, and continued to walk forward.
I didn't go far when I heard a voice say, "Hey, boy, you're not going to come back and wait for me, are you?"
Looking at the voice, under the shade of the tree on the side of the road in front, there was a girl sitting, who was the same woman who was going to walk with Ding Qin before.
Ding Qin couldn't help but be a little surprised, "You, when did you live Wuyangyu?"
The woman stood up, patted the clothes on her body, and smiled slightly, "It doesn't matter when I live, what matters is, whether you came back to wait for me?"
Ding Qin's heart was even more vigilant. According to a woman's footsteps, she should not arrive here before her own arrival. And during the time I waited, no one passed at all.
Unless, she walked through the dense woods of the mountain from the edge of Yukou. However, no normal person in a hurry would do that. The jungle not only slows down people's movements, but also carries danger at all times.
"Say, isn't it?" the girl's expression seemed to be very proud, and at the same time there was a sense of satisfaction.
The bone soul also laughed in Ding Qin's sea of knowledge. From the very beginning, he did not judge that the girl was any threat.
Ding Qin's heart fell, "That's right." I'm here to wait for you. Because I've heard that it's not safe here lately. I'm not trying to help you, I don't want what I could have prevented from getting worse again and making me regret. I ......"
"Okay, what am I, what do I have to explain. The girl shook her neck lightly and stretched her waist, "Yes, yes, no, no, what are you doing." Besides, I just wanted to take care of each other with you along the way, and I didn't force you to marry me, so what are you embarrassed about. ”
The girl spoke crisply and neatly, and although some of the words sounded a little choking, they really didn't twist or pinch at all.
Ding Qin didn't answer her words again, and asked again, "I want to ask you, how did you get over? Why haven't I seen you all this time?"
The girl chuckled, "You think I'm as stupid as you are? I walk on my own feet, do you think I'm a superman, or an ascetic? I don't have such a habit." You see. ”
She turned and pointed forward, and about two meters on the side of the road, a carriage was parked.
Ding Qin was somewhat impressed by this carriage. Not long after he arrived, several of these carriages passed by. But he kept his eyes on the other side of Yuguchi, so he really didn't pay attention to the vehicle that turned back.
In this way, this girl has been observing herself here for more than an hour.
"The girl's house is on the way, of course, it's still a carriage. Let me just go, but I'll be tired. Alas. She sighed softly, "How about it? Do you want to go together? If you go together, you can also take the car." ”
"I don't get in a car. Ding Qin suddenly felt that he was quite faceless in front of this woman.
The woman smiled as if she had seen through his thoughts, "Why do you feel a little embarrassed?" Forget it, it doesn't matter what you decide, but I'll just follow you. Anyway, at the moment, it seems that if I am in danger, you will not ignore it. It feels good to have such a backer along the way. ”
Ding Qin ignored her and walked forward directly. He still walked at the speed of his own hurry, only faster than the carriage.
The woman saw Ding Qin moving, and she got into the carriage after a few ups and downs. Ding Qin was secretly shocked in his heart, so it seems that this woman's cultivation may not be bad. If it is really two people competing for speed, it is very likely that in a short distance, Ding Qin is not much faster than her.
However, after a long time, the difference between riding and traveling will come out. Even if the consumption of spiritual power is not particularly obvious, a person's physical energy is limited. Ding Qin's speed slowly decreased, and finally reached a relatively constant speed. But the woman actually opened the front curtain of the carriage and looked at the scenery leisurely.
Seeing that it was getting late, Ding Qin didn't mean to stop. After nightfall, passing by a small town, Ding Qin went to a small shop to eat. The woman also stopped, probably to prepare for the night, and in between eating, she sold the horse in the cart and bought a new one. This way, she doesn't have to worry about the horse's stamina.
Ding Qin smiled bitterly. Judging from these signs, this woman really made up her mind to go with her.
Under the darkness of the night, one person and one car were speeding on the road one after another. It was almost midnight when there was another small town in front of me. The inn at the entrance of the town should still be open, Ding Qin stopped for a little observation and walked in.
The carriage then arrived, and the woman got out of the house and entered the shop.
"Give me a room. Ding Qin knocked lightly on the counter, and the shopkeeper inside rubbed his sleepy eyes and got up.
"Okay. A third room, from here to the back, the last room. Xiao Er checked the registration and took a key for Ding Qin.
"Give me a room, too, preferably closer to him. When the girl walked to the counter, she actually followed Ding Qin's example and knocked on it.
Xiao Er was a little embarrassed at this time, "This ...... Girl, let's be honest, it was the last room in the store just now. Why don't you find another one......"
"Where do you want me to find this black light? I've seen it all, there's an inn in your town. If I go out to find it, there are three long and two short, can you be responsible?" What this girl said to Xiao Er was more like something for Ding Qin.
The second child's embarrassment was even heavier, "This...... Girl, I can't make a room for you......"
"Give her mine. Ding Qin folded back and threw the key directly on the counter. "If there are no taboos, I will rest in your lobby for one night, and I can pay for the room. ”
Xiao Er was slightly stunned, and then smiled. Ding Qin's move not only relieved himself, but also gave him an extra income. This fee paid by the person who slept in the lobby, he could fit into his own pocket.
Moreover, from the words and deeds of these two people, he also had some inferences, and when the woman took the key and was about to leave, he came a little redundantly, "Alas, in fact, I said, the little two, there is no need to quarrel and be angry, what happened will pass in one night, and if there is a room, they will sleep together, and that room is a big bed......"
"Smack!" a soft sound interrupted him directly. On the counter in front of him, a chopstick was stuck horizontally in the wood, and the tail was still vibrating slightly.
"If you talk nonsense, believe it or not, these chopsticks will be inserted into your head?" The woman actually turned her face directly, and her tone was extremely cold.
Xiao Er's face was frightened, and he said continuously, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I thought about it myself, this mouth owes, and I ...... broken mouth."
The girl ignored him and slowly walked to the back to look for a room. Ding Qin looked at the chopsticks and said in his heart, "Sure enough, this person still has a few hits." If you can fly chopsticks into the wood like this without releasing your spiritual power, at least your spiritual power cultivation will reach the fifth level of the first order. ”
He didn't say it, though. Finding a position relative to the window, Ding Qin sat down, closed his eyes, and relaxed his body while exercising pranayama.
Approaching dawn, Ding Qin suddenly opened his eyes alertly.
Because just now, someone swept by outside.
Not only did he feel it, but the fat mound that had been lying at his feet immediately put on an enemy's appearance.
