Chapter 036: Your Dad Is Still Waiting for You
The sound of human breathing? He Angelica looked up suspiciously, and saw a person lying on a tree sleeping soundly, who was Gao Jue?
He Angelica understood at the moment, why he could see him boxing yesterday morning, and he could run into him when he went out for a run at dawn today, it turned out that he had been sleeping on the tree outside the East Chamber! Voyeurism? What a bad man! He Angelica picked up a small pebble from the ground and threw it upward, hitting Ice Cube's nose as he wished. Looking at the ice cube face with "I want to kill" written on his face, He Angelica smiled and beckoned to him and said, "Master Gao, let's go." ”
He Angelica, Gao Jue and Zhenjing walked outside the meditation room in the north courtyard, and He Angelica took out a bunch of keys given to her by Taixi and tried them one by one, wanting to open the door of the meditation room. Gao Jue, who was angry about getting up, walked over with a black face, and reached out and pulled the copper lock down with the lock on the door. Zhenjing shrank behind He Angelica in fright, He Angelica glanced at Gao Jue, barbarian, after pushing open the door of the meditation room, a small coffin was parked in the center of the room.
He Danggui turned his head to look at the wide-backed knife on his waist and asked, "Wild ...... Tall, can I borrow your knife and use it? ”
Gao Jue expressionlessly took out a small dagger from his bosom and raised it to He Angelica's nose. He Angelica thanked him, approached the coffin, pushed the lid open, and used a dagger to pry off the sleepers bonded with tree glue. The handle of the dagger was made of cold black black iron, and it was entwined with bright red patterns, like the embroidery on his black robe when he first saw him, and it had a terrifying beauty. The blade of the dagger is chilling, revealing that it is not a clever object to be played with, but a real bloodthirsty murder weapon.
Gao Jue watched coldly as the girl skillfully used his usual weapon to "pop" the sleeper of the coffin, took out a cloth towel from her arms and wrapped the sleeper carefully, and handed it to the little Dao Gu behind her, laughing like a clear spring: "Put it away, this is a baby!" Then, with a dark face, he watched as the girl used his murderous and blood-drinking dagger to "ziziz" to grind away the traces of the sleepers being pried away.
It is said that good weapons are extremely human, and the dagger seems to be infected with the anger of its owner, and the girl's slender jade hand gnaws at the gum in pain......
After a while, He Angelica, who was done, blew the gum and sawdust on the dagger, put the knife into the sheath and handed it to Gao Jue, and said with a smile: "Okay! Good dagger! Well-since Lord Gao is so generous, the little woman will trespass once, Lord Gao, please lift the coffin and follow us! ”
"What?! You say let me carry the coffin? Gao Jue clenched the dagger dangerously, and a green tendon burst out of the back of his hand, as if it would lose control in the next moment, splitting the coffin in half along with the girl who asked him to carry it.
Zhenjing regretted that she was born in this world, and tried to shrink and shrink herself, and kept silently saying in her heart: You can't see me, you can't see me, you can't see me......
He Angelica sighed, with a touching expression of resentment on his face, and said with self-pity: "Originally, I said, how can I be called the dignified General Jinyi Wei as a little folk girl? Originally, the folk girl just wanted to find a few porters to make it easy to arouse, but the adults volunteered to take the porter's place, and now they refuse to do the porter's work...... Seeing that it is already three poles in the sun, it is too late for the folk girl to find the porter again, so quiet! Hearing the sound of Zhenjing in the corner, he Angelica hugged the front end of the coffin, turned his head to look at Zhenjing and said, "One person lifts aside, let's go down the mountain!" ”
Gao Jue squinted his eyes lightly, and slowly put the dagger into his arms, the muscles in his arms bulging up, radiating dangerous anger. The next moment, Gao Jue raised his palm in the direction of He Angelica, and Zhen Jing in the corner covered his face and let out a piercing scream - the coffin weighing more than 100 catties rose spontaneously without wind, and flew up to Gao Jue's shoulder with a "whoosh".
Gao Jue carried the coffin out of the meditation room and squeezed out two words from between his teeth, as if he said the name of the enemy who killed his father: "Go down the mountain." ”
Because it was still early, I didn't meet anyone all the way out of the Taoist temple. The wind was born at Gao Jue's feet, leaving He Angelica and Zhenjing far behind. He Angelica shouted at the back of the coffin in front of him uneasily: "Be careful!" That's very valuable, and you can't break it even if you have a little bit of patent leather! If it's broken, you have to pay for it! ”
As soon as the words fell, the back in front of him paused, then jumped on the canopy of a tree on the side of the road, and flew away with a coffin.
Zhenjing breathed a sigh of relief, turned her head and pouted to look at He Angelica, and asked with a look of being about to cry: "Xiaoyi, why do we want to go with him?" He's terrible! ”
He Angelica spread his hands: "Do you think I want to?" It's he who won't leave, licking his face and coming to help! ”
Zhenjing opened her mouth wide, and automatically imagined an amazing picture of "the tall man is not leaving, licking his face and has to come to help", and immediately shook his head, and asked He Angelica: "Just now you said that the coffin is very valuable?" But a coffin is generally worth about eight taels of silver, right? And your coffin is very small! ”
He Angelica gritted his teeth and smiled: "Fortunately, the people in the entire Taoist temple, including Taishan and Taixi, don't know the goods, otherwise how could I successfully take away my coffin?" I inquired with Zhenzhu before, and Taishan thought that this coffin was beautifully made and should be worth twenty or thirty taels of silver, so he detained it in the meditation room of the North Courtyard, and planned to let people carry it away in two days to exchange for some silver flowers. But fortunately, the Lord Taixi agreed that I would take my coffin, and she also agreed that I could redeem you for five taels of silver! Quick, it's so quiet, let's go down the mountain! Sell the silver to eat the braised lion's head, and then return to the Taoist temple to redeem you! ”
Zhenjing didn't expect He Angelica to be thinking about helping him pay off his debts, and he was moved, nodded and ran down the mountain hand in hand with He Angelica, and the two of them ran very eloped. But after running for a cup of tea, she really couldn't hold on...... What's this, what is this speed? This is the speed at which you want to run out of life! Zhenjing grabbed He Angelica, who was running wildly, panting like a cow and waving his hand again and again, signaling that he couldn't do it.
How so? I remember that the day after He Angelica came back from the dead, they went to the mountains to dig wild vegetables together, Zhenjing still thought He Angelica was walking too slowly, and said, "You Miss Dahu walks so delicately, but now it's not a garden, we can't go back when you walk like this", a few days later, why did the two people just turn around?
He Angelica thought for a moment and said, "I'll carry you." As he spoke, he pulled Zhenjing onto her back and asked her to wrap her arms around her neck. Of course, Zhenjing didn't believe that He Angelica could carry his back, and repeatedly told him to spare, "The female king spares her life, I don't want to fall to death, I have forty old mothers......"
He Angelica was a little apprehensive when she called him, because he really didn't expect Zhenjing to look thin, but the weight was not light at all. Lifting Zhenjing on his back with his hand, and taking a full breath, He Angelica ran up on the mountain road, and the speed was no less than the running speed when he didn't carry people just now, so frightened that Zhenjing screamed again and again. He Angelica ran very fast, and he didn't feel tired at all, so he ran faster and faster, and he felt that he had left all the unpleasant things behind......
Zhenjing's panic at the beginning gradually turned into worry, and she asked many times, "Xiaoyi, are you tired?" "Xiaoyi, are you okay?" "Xiaoyi, what do you say?" But the slender little man carrying himself seemed to be stunned, his eyes were wide open, he didn't speak, and he kept running and running. Zhenjing gradually felt that the trees on both sides of the mountain road had retreated from a few to a few ground, and gradually turned into a retreat one by one, and finally the trees on both sides of the mountain road had turned into a vague gray shadow, and the only thing that was clear between heaven and earth was the black bun in front of her.
When she was about to reach the foot of the mountain, He Angelica began to slow down slowly, and by the time she reached the last step of the mountain road, she had already stopped.
Zhenjing slid off her back, grabbed her and asked, "What the hell is going on?" How do you run so fast? It scared me to death just now, and I asked you why you ignored me? Under Zhenjing's closer look, He Angelica not only breathed as usual, but even sweat did not come out, only the broken hair on the sideburns was greasy on both sides of the pale pink cheeks.
He Angelica glanced at her: "The internal strength is about one breath, and when you open your mouth, you will be deflated, and it will throw you out." ”
She was also a little surprised by the strength of her feet, and she didn't feel tired when she ran, so she went faster, and faster when she wasn't tired, and so on, until it became a kind of extreme speed with the wind blowing through her ears. Running the entire mountain trail with Zhenjing on her back, she didn't feel any fatigue, as if she had just run with someone else's legs, but she was the one who was carried on her back. How amazing this is, she didn't know that the internal force was such a good thing in her previous life, could it be that the current internal force has far surpassed the internal force accumulated in the five years of her previous life?
He Angelica and Zhenjing took out their respective bamboo tubes, raised their heads and drank water. When they put down the bamboo tube, the two of them saw Gao Jue's black face of "living people stopped", and the small coffin he was carrying on his shoulder.
He Angelica immediately stepped forward and circled around him, and asked with concern: "Are you okay?" Didn't break anything, did you? ”
A strong chill erupted from Gao Jue's whole body.
After confirming that her coffin was safe and sound, He Angelica pulled the timid and trembling Zhenjing forward, and urged Gao Jue, who was pestled there like a stump: "Hurry up, let's go to a morning meeting together, and when the coffin is sold, I will invite you to eat soy milk fritters!" ”
The chill on Gao Jue's face subsided a little, but he still stood still. He Angelica was a little puzzled, and he didn't know what he was doing awkwardly, so he had to look up to study his expression and find that his eyes were looking at his own hands. She moved her hand, Gao Jue moved his eyes? So He Angelica looked down at his hands...... Holding a bamboo tube of water in his hand.
"Are you going to drink this?" He Angelica asked strangely, seeing that the other party nodded arrogantly, so she raised her hand and handed him the bamboo tube, and at the same time counted down dissatisfiedly, "If you want to drink, you can say it, if you don't say it, how do I know you want to drink?" Why don't you say it? ”
Gao Jue silently took the bamboo tube, raised his head and drank it dry, and threw the empty bamboo tube far up the mountain. The bamboo tube crossed the sky, fell into the mountains and forests with a "bang", and "fluttered and fluttered" to frighten countless birds. He Angelica's gaze moved from the birds fleeing for their lives to Gao Jue's face, and found that his face was much better, and he couldn't help but be puzzled, the reason why this guy was angry was half a tube of water? What a strange guy.
When it was dawn, the three of them walked into Rabbit Town. He Angelica walked into a grocery store on the side of the road and asked a young man at the counter: "Little brother, I want to inquire, how many coffin shops are there in Rabbit Town?" ”
The young man was immersed in eating chili oil noodles, and when he heard this, he bit half a sour cucumber and raised his head, seeing that it was a beautiful sister who was younger than him, and was about to answer, but he was looked at by the other party's pair of black and white, smiling phoenix eyes, and somehow his heart jumped suddenly, and the sour cucumber in his mouth "snapped" into the chili oil noodle soup, and then burst into a few drops of chili oil on his face.
The beautiful sister smiled as before, and apologized: "I'm sorry, I disturbed your meal." ”
The young man waved his hand again and again, ran out of the counter, and enthusiastically told his beautiful sister what the four coffin shops in the town were called, where they were, which one was the largest, and which one was of poor quality. The pretty sister listened carefully, nodded from time to time, and finally thanked him.
The young man rubbed his hands nervously, no one had ever listened to him seriously, let alone such a beautiful and polite sister. In the past, he always thought that the more beautiful a woman was, the more fierce she became, and the cousin and niece of the proprietress were good-looking and fierce like a she-wolf; The Oiran Zhen Liuniang of the secret door on the next street looks better, fierce like a tigress. This sister is more beautiful than six Jane and Liu Niang stacked together, and she is not fierce at all...... Thinking of this, the young man asked with concern whether the beautiful sister had died in the family, what to do with the coffin shop, whether she had enough money to buy a coffin, and what price she wanted to buy.
The beautiful sister smiled and reminded him that his noodles were going to be cold, and when she noticed that his noodles were not only floating with a layer of chili oil, but also a few red peppers, she told him that his complexion looked like a strong stomach, and he should not eat too spicy in the morning, otherwise he would feel hungry frequently at night, and he would often have bloating after eating; If you really don't eat spicy, you should eat a boiled egg or tofu first, and then eat spicy.
The young man was moved, he didn't expect a sister who met for the first time to care so much about himself, and he really often felt underfed lately, and he often had bloating at night, the same symptoms as she said. After a few words, he listened to his beautiful sister who was speaking Yangzhou like him, but with a bit of Beijing flavor in her accent, so he asked her where she lived, which didn't sound like a local.
The beautiful sister told him that although she was from Yangzhou, the nurse who taught her to speak was from Beijing, so she learned a few words of the playful official dialect of Beijing.
And the wet nurse? It turned out to be a lady who was served, so approachable is really rare! The young man asked her what she was doing in Rabbit Town, and now she has found a place to live, and who else is there in the family...... It's time to prepare for the future.
Hearing this, He Angelica was also a little speechless. I didn't expect the people of Rabbit Town to be so hospitable, and the imagination was so wild. was about to answer the young man's question, but he suddenly took two steps back, waved his hand slightly frightened and said, "It turns out that your father is still waiting for you, ha, then I won't delay you, sister, you walk slowly, and the mourning is smooth!" ”
He Angelica followed the young man's gaze and saw her "father" carrying a coffin, gloomy blocking the gate of the grocery store, and walked out with a smile, saying, "Let's go, go to Li Ji's coffin shop five streets away." ”
Zhenjing had been lying at the door waiting for He Angelica, and he also heard the introduction of the young man, and he clearly said that the Jingji coffin shop two streets away was the largest coffin shop in Rabbit Town. Zhenjing asked, "Why don't we go to the Jingji coffin shop and ask?" Will a larger coffin shop bid more? ”
He Angelica smiled and said, "You don't have to go in and ask, we need to go to the Li Ji coffin shop five streets away first, but we also have to 'pass' the Jing Ji coffin shop on the way, and then we can walk slowly and rest." Zhenjing was confused, Gao Jue understood the meaning of her words, but he still continued to maintain his facial paralysis and gloom, and did not react.
