64. Heroic Ling Mo
It turned out that after Xiang'er drove the carriage into the distance, the two thieves kept chasing after them, and they shouted wildly that if they were caught, they would definitely tear off their bones and strip their skins. Listening to such a curse, Xiang'er was even more frightened, and the whip in her hand was unstable several times.
There is no direction to catch the car, as long as there is a road, rush forward, how do you know that the more you walk, the smaller it becomes, Xiang'er knows that she has taken a fork in the road. But there were pursuers behind him, and it was impossible to turn back at this time, so he had to run forward.
Suddenly, I saw the mountain standing tall in front of me, and it was already at the end, and my face couldn't help but turn pale. Grief and indignation are inexplicable, her own young lady desperately wants to make a living for her and her wife, but she doesn't know the way, and she still walks into a dead end.
All thoughts were lost, and he decided to wait for the next vow to protect his wife, and he would die in front of his wife.
The carriage had stopped, and she got out of it, and looked back at the thugs, but she was stunned.
She said that the thugs had stopped cursing, and that the two had fallen to the ground, and blood was pouring from under them, and there stood a man dressed in black, with a long sword in his hand, looking down at the two men on the ground.
Because they were thirty meters away, Xiang'er didn't know if the two had been slaughtered, but when she saw the blood flowing all over the ground, fear flashed in her heart. The man in black looked over to this side, only frowned, and then walked up his steps.
Lizhu also got out of the car at this time, and her face was pale when she saw the sight in front of her.
But they could not escape, so they could only watch as the man in black approached, raised his hand and saluted them, saying, "When you pass by here on the way down, you see those two chasing your carriage and speak evil words, and you know that they must be robbers in the mountains." Now that the thieves have been removed, the two of them do not need to panic or be afraid, they can get into the carriage and leave on their own. ”
The man was tall, with a square face, deep eyebrows and eyes, his hair tied to the top of his head with a black headband, and some long hair draped behind him, quite chivalrous. After Lizhu and Xiang'er glanced at each other, they didn't say much, turned around and got into the carriage, Xiang'er whipped the horse's buttocks, and the majestic immediately took a step forward and ran forward.
After walking for a while, Xiang'er looked back and saw that the man in black was still standing in the distance, his clothes fluttering, and he had a heroic appearance.
The next thing is that they drove the carriage to Wucheng, and it was already dark by then, so they found the largest inn to live in according to Dye Qing, but they couldn't sleep all night. Although Zhizhi Qing is resourceful, she is only a woman, how can it be so easy to deal with the other three villains?
The night passed, and there was no news of dyeing, and the two were even more anxious. Lizhu arranged for Xiang'er to wait downstairs, while she recited Buddhist scriptures in the house, praying to the Buddha Lord to bless Dye Qing safe and sound.
They have no power or power, they are just fugitives who have absconded, and they can't think of any way to save Dye Qing. In addition to praying to God, in addition to praying to the Buddha, can there be another way?
It was the sentimental moment when there was a sudden "gurgling" sound, and it suddenly rose up.
Seeing Lizhu Niang and Xiang'er's stunned expressions, she smiled and said, "Mother, Xiang'er, I've been on the road all morning, and I haven't drunk my saliva yet, why don't you go downstairs and order some food?" ”
When she came in before, she observed that the shopkeeper of this inn was very thoughtful, and there was an elegant hall downstairs for guests to eat, and there were rooms upstairs.
When she first got up, Lizhu frowned and looked at her daughter's wrinkled clothes, "Dye it blue, change your clothes and go downstairs." ”
When the three of them came downstairs after resting, it was a change. Dye Qing changed into a royal blue robe, and Lizhu was still dressed as an old mother, but Xiang'er changed back to women's clothes before, so she became a maid again.
This place is far away from Huaicheng, so there is no need to hide your identity and disguise yourself like before.
As soon as he sat in the position, Dye Qing was about to ask Xiao Er to come up and order, when he suddenly heard the sound of Xiang'er next to him, "Huh", and the person had already stood up, with surprise and excitement on his face.
She pulled Ran Qing's wrist and said urgently: "Young master, look at the person who came in at the door, he is the hero who saved me and my wife." ”
Following her line of sight, Dye Qing looked over and saw a man in black standing in front of the counter asking if there was a vacant room for the shopkeeper, and only the side faces could be seen in their positions. Looking at this person from the side, he looks square, but he can't see any righteousness and chivalry, maybe because of the dark clothes on his body, which makes people feel a little dull.
Since she saved Lizhu Niang and Xiang'er, she couldn't lose her manners, so she got up and walked towards the man in black.
When he walked ten paces away from the man, he looked sideways, met the eye, and his heart moved. These eyes were sharp, shining brightly, and when I stood there, I felt that this person was calm.
And he was very tall, and if she got close, she might have to look up to him.
Xiang'er came over with her, and couldn't help but call at this time: "Hero! When Dye Qing heard this, he couldn't help but look sideways, how could he listen to this hero full of worship? Seeing Xiang'er's eyes shining, her eyes stared at the man in black without blinking.
I can't help but laugh in my heart, and it is normal to see such a reaction from a life-saving benefactor. In this way, she did cross the river and tear down the bridge, and after the purple wolf saved herself, she didn't thank him for a word, and wanted to get rid of him......
Returning to reality, Dye Qing had already walked up to the man, raised his hand and hugged his fist and said: "Thank you to this hero for seeing the uneven road yesterday and saving Xiaosheng's mother and sister, thank you here, dare to ask the hero's name?" ”
Seeing Xiang'er nodding violently, she knew that this question was what she wanted to ask. Yesterday was extremely scared, and I was in a hurry to come to Wucheng, so I didn't want to talk to this hero, and after calming down afterwards, I must be grateful for the grace of saving my life.
Fortunately, how can you not be excited to know the name of the life-saving benefactor?
These thoughts are all in her eyes, and she is also grateful for this kindness, so she sincerely thanks this person.
A deep voice spat out of the man's mouth: "No need to be polite, just convenient." After speaking, he turned around and took the room key handed over by the shopkeeper, and was about to leave and go upstairs.
Ran Qing suddenly had a good impression of this person in his heart, silent, not proud, not taking credit, but chivalrous. So I really moved the idea of making friends, took two steps quickly, followed behind the man, and asked again: "Dare to ask Engongzun's surname, Xiaosheng Du Qingran." ”
"Ling Mo." An indifferent voice arose, without any pause, and in a blink of an eye, it disappeared at the top of the staircase, and turned into a certain wing. Is this a rejection of rejection?
It seems that he doesn't want to be disturbed, but he doesn't really turn people away.
Ran Qing pursed her lips and smiled, turned around and left, and didn't force it, since he stayed here, he wouldn't leave immediately for a while, and she would have a way to make friends with him.
Returning to her desk, Lizhu Niang also inquired and looked at her inquiringly. Dye Qing smiled and said: "Mother, don't worry, the name is asked, I'm not afraid that he will leave, the grace of saving his life, Dye Qing must repay him,"
Lizhu shook her head and said, "Seeing that strong man doesn't seem to want to know you, if you entangle again and again, will it be too much?" ”
"No, mother, since he has told his name, it proves that he is actually moving in his heart, otherwise he should have ignored me completely." Dye Qing said with certainty, with a confident smile on his face.
After a while, Xiang'er came back, she inquired with the shopkeeper, the person named Ling Mo lived in the wing next to them, it was really God's will, if there was a door sound, they would definitely be able to hear it first.
You don't have to ask for the opportunity yourself, it will come to the door naturally.
After the three of them had lunch, they just wanted to go back to the room, but when they arrived at the corridor on the second floor, they saw Ling Mo open the door and come out, and when he raised his eyes to see them, he nodded. Ran Qing immediately greeted him, "Brother Ling, but you want to go downstairs for dinner?" ”
Ling Mo seemed to be stunned when he heard such an affectionate name, and there was an embarrassed look on his face, but it was fleeting. He nodded slightly, intending to pass them by, but he heard Dye Qing say again: "Why don't you go together?" ”
He paused, looked back at her, and asked hesitantly, "Didn't you already use it just now?" ”
Dye Qing didn't feel embarrassed, "Although I have used it, I can still accompany Brother Ling to drink a glass of water and wine." He turned his head and whispered to Xiang'er: "You and your mother go back to the house to rest first, and I'll come back later." ”
Seeing this, Ling Mo had no choice but to be silent and walked towards the stairs.
When he arrived at the Deya Hall, Dye Qing called for a pot of water and wine, and really sat next to Ling Mo and drank it. The food he called for was much simpler, a bowl of rice, a bowl of soup, and when Dye Qing invited him to drink with him, he shook his head and refused, claiming that he would not drink.
A light smile was always on her lips, when she was so enthusiastic, she wanted to thank Ling Mo, and secondly, she deliberately observed his personality. Looking at the food he eats, you can see that this person is very simple, and refusing to drink proves that he is a very temperate person, not necessarily that he does not know how to drink, but may have his own principles when walking outside.
Because from the tea shed to Wucheng, there is only one direction that is feasible, and that is Junwang City. Dye Qing's mind is very simple, since this Ling Mo has a chivalrous heart, and although he is silent, he is very principled, so he moved his heart to go on the road together.
If there is such a person with strong martial arts to walk with him, then the robbery of gangsters like the Jiangzhou Five Tigers can be eliminated, which is equivalent to hiring a free bodyguard, why not?
It is precisely because of the incident of the five tigers in Jiangzhou, so Dye Qing is also afraid in her heart, knowing that there are people outside the world, walking on the rivers and lakes, one wrong step, may be doomed, she can no longer put her mother and Xiang'er in danger like yesterday, including herself, if it is not for the purple wolf to rescue, I am afraid she will not sit here at this moment.
Therefore, it is never too much to take precautions, and with people like Ling Mo on the road together, the problem of safety will be solved. At this moment, even if she accompanies more smiling faces, she has to make this friend, at least so that he can escort them all the way to Junwang City.
There were all kinds of thoughts in his heart, but his face was silent, and occasionally he seemed to talk to Ling Mo unintentionally, and over time, maybe he was overwhelmed, but he also began to talk to her slowly.
