"Miss Ziyan, Butler Wu, I didn't mean to offend. This encounter is indeed not a coincidence, but I have no ill intentions, otherwise, the shopkeeper Wang would not have transferred the store to me, the character of the shopkeeper Wang, I believe that everyone can see, such people are willing to cooperate with me, first of all, it proves that I am trustworthy. If you don't believe me, you should believe in the king's treasurer, right?"

Gui Mu's words were very sincere, and he endured the disgusting ingredients, but he didn't know how much Ziyan and Wuma listened. Seeing that Zi Yangang was a little shaken, Wu Ma shook his head directly and said.

"Shopkeeper Guimu, what do you want? As long as you don't cross the bottom line of the Zeng family, the Zeng family can satisfy you. ”

The first time he saw this man in the pharmacy, he knew that he was not simple. He has walked the rivers and lakes for decades, and he still has this eyesight. And it was the time of the selection of the Ziming Sect, and there were not a few people who came to admire the princes and rangers of the rivers and lakes.

Katsuragi patted his head with one hand, feeling his head bigger. But in the eyes of Wu Ma, this man who is very much like the 'son of the world' has a strange temperament and behaves strangely.

"Forget it! I won't pretend. ”

Is it finally about to show the fox's tail? Wu Ma thought secretly, and unconsciously, the short knife was half unsheathed. The charioteers and servants with sharp weapons around them clenched their weapons one after another. Ziyan tugged at the corners of her clothes with both hands, her lips were clenched, and she was a little scared. is afraid of this unknown Guimu shopkeeper, but also afraid, or worried about the safety of her grandfather.

"That's right, Lao Tzu is the legendary human-faced beast-hearted, treacherous and cunning, wolf-hearted, dog-lunged, well-dressed beasts, and beasts inferior to the wicked people in the rivers and lakes, and now Lao Tzu tells you, this cat Lao Tzu threw your Zeng family and got it back in ten years, if it loses a hair, I will slaughter your Zeng family. ”

After Guimu finished speaking, he didn't take a breath without gasping, and then, he didn't drag his feet at all. A kitten was grabbed from behind, and it was the same cat that had accidentally broken into the caravan earlier. Guimu threw his hand away, turned around and walked into the jungle, leaving only everyone with a confused face.

Ziyan reached out and caught the cat flying from the air, looking happy. The gray kitten is not afraid of life, so it is quietly held by Ziyan.

————

"His grandmother's, doesn't she just want to form a team to go to Qingquan County, as for it?"

Guimu leaned against an ancient tree angrily, punching and kicking twice from time to time, as if venting his dissatisfaction. There is a black wood pillar next to the Katsura tree, and there seems to be blood flowing on the black wood, which looks particularly strange in the dark night of 'dry bones'.

That cat was caught by him in the depths of the Dry Bone Forest, and it was bred by this heaven and earth, and it was a good spiritual creature. Originally, Katsura was going to give Ziyan as a greeting gift to redeem his rude behavior at the pharmacy. But I don't know if she likes it or not, so there is the cat's mistake. In the end, the cat was delivered, but the impression was even worse.

Katsuragi took out a flatbread and a somewhat dated map from his bosom. His space had been taken, and he had borrowed the cake and the map from the king, and he was not able to do it yet, so he needed some food.

"It's fucking hard. ”

Guimu bit the flatbread, but couldn't tear it off, looking at the distant sky. He was thinking of today's tragedy. The money was not settled, the clothes were also lost, and in the end, it was misunderstood by the girl. Although he had a little ill intentions towards the girl, this should not be the reason why she misunderstood this gentleman!

Katsuragi bit the flatbread with his mouth, held the map in both hands, and slowly opened it. It's not a loss to the map given by the king's guys, except for the simplicity, there is nothing else.

The whole picture is simply a big circle stringing small circles, and the only highlight is - simplicity. Gui Mu first clarified his position at the moment, and then found the address of Qingquan County from the map. After planning all this, Katsura slowly lost his breath and took a big bite of the pie in his mouth.

The other side of the forest.

The caravan took advantage of the night to move slowly, and he or she took a flat path with little luggage. But tiredness was written all over everyone's face.

"Grandpa Wu, what should I do with that kitten?"

It turned out that this nocturnal caravan belonged to the Zeng family. Encountering Katsuragi in that clearing before, the business journey that should have been peaceful was in chaos. At noon, Ma immediately decided to travel lightly overnight.

"If you like it, stay. And that person also said that let the Zeng family raise it for ten years, although I don't know whether it's true or not, but I don't ask whether it's right or wrong. ”

After Ziyan heard this, she responded lightly and walked away. She walked lightly to a carriage. Slowly, a piece of black cloth was opened from the carriage, revealing the gray and white kitten inside. The carriage without a roof was a little bumpy, but the kitten lying in it slept soundly.

Before getting into the car, Ziyan made a nest for the kitten out of her clothes. Afraid of bumps on the road, it was frightened, so he used a centering bead to fix some items on the carriage in a stable space, so that the kitten would not be bumpy.

Although centering beads are not rare, they are also relatively precious. Generally, only monks who understand the laws of space can refine it with the help of materials. It just so happens that there is a Tianjing mine near Qingquan County, and Tianjing happens to be the core material for practicing the heart beads, as the leading Zeng family in Qingquan County, of course, they will not let go of the mine in front of them. The Zeng family obtained part of the sovereignty of the mine through certain relationships. Therefore, although the centering bead is precious, it is really nothing to the Zeng family.

The kitten is curled up in the nest, its two little paws are shrunk in its gray hair, and its expression is quiet and very pleasant. Ziyan sat quietly on the side of the car, looking at the quiet and lovely cat below with soft eyes.

Silent all night.

The sun rises and shines a warm glow into the forest, and the trees come alive in spring.

Ziyan and the others had already walked out of the confines of the Dry Bone Forest, and at this time they (she) came to an unknown hill.

"Rest where you are, Hammer, and you take some hay and carrots over there and feed the horses. ”

After assigning the work, he found a protruding stone, wiped it with his sleeve, and sat down on it. Afternoon horse took out the flask hanging from his waist and took a sip. He didn't dare to drink too much, for fear of delaying the rest of the trip.

Ziyan held the kitten and stood not far from the caravan. There are no weeds or rivers here, and the surface is a bit of wasteland. They must get out of the landscape before noon and find a shady place, or they will walk under the scorching sun.

Ziyan held the kitten with one hand, gently rubbed its little head with the other, and the kitten lay obediently in Ziyan's arms with a quiet expression. Just now, the light of the rising sun slowly sprinkled down and fell on her body, and at that moment, she was like an angel clothed in holy light, beautiful and incomprehensible.
