Chapter Seventy-Seven: Household Recitation
"There will be no return to that time, and there will be no return to this time, after all, who can stop the turmoil?" After a long sigh of suppression, she said.
He smiled faintly, paused slightly, and sandwiched the rest of the wontons in his bowl into her bowl, "Then don't worry about the future, just this time........ All six wontons are given to you, and when you are still happy, eat more. ”
She looked at the wontons in the bowl, and after a moment, she sighed again, "Hey~ Did you bring any silver?" Some are pitiful, some are cute, and some are unbearable.
He took one of her hands, "I'm not used to that!" Standing up and pulling her away, the wonton shop owner hurriedly rushed over, "Objective....... Not ........ yet."
She followed his footsteps without stopping, blushing and not daring to look back, "Shouldn't I expect you to bring Fan Yun out next time to be safer?"
"You look back." A terrifying smile fell under the corners of his gentle lips. She squinted behind her and saw several people dressed in regular clothes, paying the wonton shop owner on their behalf.
"You're still bringing someone out?" She looked into his eyes, her face changed, her words seemed a little miserable, and she blurted out, "If I knew that someone would pay the bill, I would have eaten a few more bowls of wontons~"
Walking and walking, Ru Mo's eyes were sharp, and she saw a child cowering in the corner not far away, with tattered clothes, messy hair, and a dirty face, she couldn't see what she looked like, she could only see that the child was trembling vigorously, and tears and snot flowed all over the ground.
Ru Mo, who was a little overflowing with sympathy, dragged Xiao Yan, "It's so pitiful, give her some silver!"
"Don't you see what's wrong with this kid?" Xiao Yan put away his usual playful smile and replaced it with a serious expression.
Ru Mo was surprised, squatted down, trying to see something from the child's face, and after a long time, "This child doesn't seem to be sick, but seems to have been hit by Gu." ”
"This child is indeed not sick, but poisoned by a medicinal powder." Xiao Yan looked at the child carefully, turned his eyes and took a bag of silver from the entourage's hand, only to see the child snatch the silver violently, and did not say thank you, straightened his back in a panic and ran.
The corners of Ru Mo's mouth stiffened, "This kid is the same as just now?"
"You're not chasing?" Xiao Yan pouted.
Ru Mo glared slowly, "What are you chasing?"
"Don't want to know where that kid went? Is your light work just for physical fitness?" The corners of Xiao Yan's mouth hooked up a weird smile.
"I finally know what you mean by what you mean by what's important......." Ru Mo's figure disappeared from Xiao Yan's sight.
Chased to a small dilapidated hut, Ru Mo heard the old wailing in the house and the cry of the child......
"Grandma, I have money, I can buy powder, you wait, I'll go find that person right away."
"Child, you can't suck this powder anymore, don't go to that person, grandma will die when she dies, and you can't be harmed together."
Ru Mo pushed open the broken door that couldn't block the wind and rain, entered the house, and saw the child's grandmother lying on the straw, her clothes were even more tattered and emitted a foul smell, and the child who was guarding her grandmother didn't have a tear in her eyes, wasn't she crying just now?
"What are you talking about?" Ru Mo asked as she stroked the child's hair.
The child's hand dug into the dry dirt until it was stained with blood, then he looked up, stared at Ru Mo with red eyes, and sobbed; "It is a very expensive and expensive powder, which can make people intoxicated and blissful after sucking."
The child's grandmother gasped for breath tremblingly and continued; "Not long ago, a stranger came and distributed a special medicinal powder to the people in the village, saying that after smoking this medicinal powder, he could live long every year and enjoy the immortals....... After just smoking, I was a little uncomfortable, but after smoking it several times, I found that this powder is really a good thing, after smoking it, I was full of spirits, and my body and mind were happy, but as the dependence on this powder deepened, we found that if we didn't smoke it for a day, we would be listless and uncomfortable to death......."
"Where's the stranger who gave out the powder?" Ru Mo closed her eyes in disbelief and asked resentfully.
The child grabbed the hem of Ru Mo's skirt, "Sister, I'll take you there." ”
Ru Mo nodded, sighed, and just followed the child out of the house, suddenly a wave of dizziness hit, his footsteps floated in the air, and he took a few steps backwards, and just when he was about to fall, he felt that a pair of big hands held his waist in time.
"Mo'er....... What's wrong with you?" Xiao Yan behind him took a deep breath, his heart tightened, and the anxiety and uneasiness in his tone could not be suppressed, he already felt that something was wrong with her.
The faint scent of ambergris on his body surrounded the tip of his nose, and all the terrifying emotions relaxed at this moment, she raised her eyes and raised the corners of her mouth, "When it comes to the critical moment, I am so useless, is this fate?"
"If you don't have any fate, go to the doctor first." Xiao Yan picked up Ru Mo, and suddenly found that she was not struggling, and then saw that her face was tired, and there was a faint blue around her originally godly eyes, not like a disease, could it be poisoning?
"Don't go, save my grandma." The child standing on the side suddenly grabbed the corner of Xiao Yan's clothes in a hurry, Xiao Yan involuntarily looked at the child, and when he hesitated, Ru Mo in his arms struggled for a while, and he couldn't refuse; "I'm fine, I'm just too tired, let's go with this kid first!"
"Don't you really need to go to the doctor?" Xiao Yan asked Ru Mo, and when she saw Ru Mo nodding, her eyes fell on the child again, and asked; "How far away is the 'stranger' in your mouth?"
"It's not far, just follow me." The kid responded, trotting forward, leading the way!
Follow the boy to the corner of the street and find a stall selling eggs, the owner of which is a man in his thirties with a plain face.
"Do I want to buy red-skinned eggs?" The boy spoke to the stall owner.
The stall owner's eyes narrowed slightly, "There are no red-skinned eggs, I have white-skinned eggs, but I have a full egg yolk in the skin, do you want it?"
When Ru Mo heard this, she became interested and rushed to the road; "Yes, yes, yes, we want everything."
"Generally, the yolk is full, the eggs with good color, we don't take them out, we keep them for ourselves, if the girl really wants it, go to the northwest to see." The stall owner looked at Ru Mo and said instructively.
The boy listened to the stall owner's words and pulled Ru Mo and Xiao Yan to the northwest. Ru Mo glanced at Xiao Yan, "Why do I think it's too smooth?"
Xiao Yan grinned and said; "Is it hard to get a fish to take the bait?"
Ru Mo smiled and nodded, "But a shrewd fish can bite off a hook." ”
At this time, there was a sound of hurried footsteps not far away, and the child heard the footsteps, let go of Ru Mo's hand, and said quickly; "The stranger is here."
I saw that a person suddenly grabbed the child's hand with his backhand and ran towards the alley on the side, Xiao Yan saw this, and hurriedly pulled Ru Mo to follow.
The stranger pulled the child into a corner, covered the child's mouth with one hand and told her not to make a sound, took out a few packets of medicinal powder with the other, and said in a low voice; "How many packs do you want?"
"There are a few bags to ask for a few bags, and silver is not a problem." Ru Mo leaned over from the corner of the wall, and while breathing a sigh of relief, she didn't forget to glare at the stranger, but startled the stranger.
"Don't you see if the girl is a fan?" The stranger is afraid of getting into trouble and wants to leave.
Ru Mo snatched a few packets of flour similar to white flour from the stranger's hand and looked at it carefully, "Isn't it like the one who took the powder?" Doesn't that look like a man?" The second half of the sentence almost didn't dare to say it out loud, but the stranger heard it and sneered at Ru Mo; "It's not difficult for the girl to want to know, but today my lord is not ready to invite the girl to be a guest, so I will miss the company first......."
"It's not that easy to leave." Ru Mo wanted to catch the stranger, who would have thought that the stranger would hit Ru Mo with his head when he turned around, and what he didn't expect was that the man's head was as strong as iron stone, and Ru Mo fell to the ground in an instant.
"Xiao Yan, what are you eating? Watching the lively? Why don't you come and arrest someone?" By the time Ru Mo, who was holding her breath, finished shouting, the stranger had already run away.
Xiao Yan stepped forward and pulled Ru Mo up, and then smiled, "Didn't you hear that person just now said that his family master hasn't invited us yet?" I was in a hurry to arrest someone so early, but I couldn't get any clues. ”
Ru Mo was stunned when she heard this, turned her head to look at the child who smelled the medicine powder and his eyes were a little normal, and immediately turned to Xiao Yan again, and said keenly; "There is a person who is not completely sure, he will not be so calm, even if it is a god horse, it will not become a floating cloud, am I right?"
"You can see this, but it doesn't have to be a floating cloud!" Xiao Yan smiled shamefully and looked back at Ru Modao; "Let's go, take you to a place where you can hear everything the world is going on."
"Let's say that the princess of this 'Qionghua Palace' is as beautiful as a fairy, just like that Chang'e descended to earth, a fairy jade bone, and a smile is beautiful. If you want to use poetry to describe it, it is really a city and a country. Rather than know the city and the country, it is difficult for a beautiful woman to get ......." The storyteller in the teahouse began to chatter, and suddenly someone in the hall was dissatisfied and interrupted the storyteller's words, saying; "How can there be such a beautiful woman in this world? Obviously you're exaggerating. ”
"Sir, look at my appearance, how can you describe it?" After Ru Mo's round eyes had wandered around the teahouse, she suppressed the novelty when she first came in, and asked with a smile of interest to the storyteller.
The storyteller looked at Ru Mo in front of him, took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and then replied; "The girl's appearance is naturally rare and outstanding, as if it is like a light cloud covering the moon, and fluttering like the snow of the wind. It doesn't look like one of our city. But ......."
