Chapter 6: Sunflowers (1)
The fireball-like sun seemed to hang overhead, and the leaves of grass and trees were swept up in the sun, and only patches of red flowers bloomed brightly. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The shrugging horse was carrying the shrugging man, walking slowly on the avenue, Nangong Fei picked up the kettle and dipped it in his mouth, and he couldn't drink it at all.
"I started my spirit, and I saw the city gates. "Pang Song is strong and strong, and he still has the spirit to cheer up Nangong Fei, "Leshui County is a big county seat, and the inn here is better than the county lord's mansion, and there are the best dishes and the best wine in it, so let's take a cold shower first." ”
"The best food, the best wine, are in the palace. Nangong Fei said, "There is still hope for taking a cold shower." ”
"You kid!" Pang Song was about to scold him for having no ambition, when he saw a person on the side of the road, and hurriedly urged the horse over.
Lying among the flowers was an old man, dressed in tatters, with pale hair like a pile of filthy and messy dead grass, and this was obviously a wandering old man. It's just that his face is quiet, his breathing is steady, and there is a satisfied smile on the corner of his mouth, which looks more like he is asleep and is dreaming.
In the end, the two didn't dare to disturb him.
After entering Leshui County, Pang Song found a big car shop to live in. Good wine and good food can be eaten at home, you can take a bath here, you can sleep, and it is cheap, which is very good.
It's cheap, it's stuffy and hot, there are mosquitoes, and there are other tenants shouting and making noise, although the two are so tired, they can't fall asleep.
"Let's go out for a bite to eat, I just heard a dart walker say that there's a sauce meat shop not far from here, let's go have a drink." Pang Song smiled.
People walking around the street walked into the small shop in twos and threes, following the smell of wine and meat, ready to eat a full meal before going back to sleep.
It's a rare coolness of the day, and the appetite is just right at this time.
Pang Song ate a large piece of meat and drank a lot of wine, seeing that Nangong Fei Si Wenwen looked very good-looking, but the words he said were not good, laughing at him like a little chicken.
Nangong Fei sneered at each other, saying that Pang Song was like a big buffalo.
The lively atmosphere of the small shop fell silent with the arrival of another diner, because the visitor was a very beautiful woman in white. A lone woman on a big night is rare, not to mention that she has a snow-white bird on her shoulder, no breed to tell, as cold and delicate as its owner.
No one dared to go up and talk to her, just watched the woman walk to the counter and buy a pound of beef in sauce. When he turned around to leave, the bird that seemed to be carved from ice and snow flew to Nangong Fei and stopped on the ash altar.
"This little brother, have you ever met an old man in a black robe today?" the woman stepped forward to take the bird, and her voice was unique to the crispness of a twenty-eight girl.
"Yes. Nangong Fei hurriedly got up, "Are you his family?"
"It's my father, he's old, and he doesn't remember very well. There was a hint of urgency in the woman's voice, but it was still gentle and polite, "May I ask where you saw it?"
"On the official road not far from the city, he is a little weak, and he should not have gone far. Pang Song said, "It's too late, girl, you should quickly inform your family to find it." ”
"Thank you both. After the woman finished speaking, she hurried away.
Nangong Fei breathed a sigh of relief, he had been a little worried about the old man, but fortunately, his family would be able to find him soon.
"There's something wrong with this woman. Pang Song watched the woman disappear at the door, suddenly got up and chased out, beckoning Nangong Fei to follow.
The two of them ran out of the sauce and meat shop, only to see a few lights and passers-by in the night, and how could there be a woman?
"Sure enough, there is a problem!" Pang Song immediately decided to go back and lead the horse and run out of the city.
"Brother Pang, what's wrong with that sister?" Nangong Fei asked.
She said that the old man was her father, but her tone was urgent, but her eyes were cold, and even a little murderous. Pang Song said, "She was in a hurry to find the old man, but it was definitely not a good intention." ”
Nangong Fei thought about it for a while, because the woman was too cold, he didn't notice the eyes, but his trust in Pang Song made him feel that this was the case, and after admiring it, he suddenly smiled and said, "Brother Pang, you are no longer a fast catcher, even if it is, this is not Jingtai Town." ”
"Speaking of this, I got angry, and chased out of the small store before I remembered that I wasn't a fast catcher. Pang Song smiled and sighed, and began to pity the unfinished wine and meat again, he is now completely sitting and eating the empty mountain, "The wine and meat are not exhausted, so I can only meddle in my affairs." ”
Nangong Fei is not a safe person, so he has no objection to this, but he is worried that the woman is not simple.
"Don't worry, I found a Taoist priest who had no idea how to get a few talismans, exorcism of demons, and the idle little demon couldn't get up. Pang Song patted his chest, "If you're afraid, stand away." ”
The city gate has been closed tightly, and it can't be opened without major events, but Pang Song asked the county magistrate to get the paperwork when he left Jingtai Town, and it was still a bit of a deterrent in the surrounding towns. Even deceived and frightened, the officers and soldiers defending the city opened the door, saying that if they wanted to return to the city, they would have to wait until tomorrow.
The two of them did not have lights, but there were stars twinkling on them, and there were fireflies scurrying up and down on the side of the road, which could completely avoid the tragedy of plunging headlong into the grass barley.
Finally, they caught up with the old man before the woman in white could find her. Dressed in clean white, walking slowly in the night, she heard the sound of horses' hooves and turned to look, a little surprised: "It's you?"
"Hehe, when I just paid the money, I found that I lost one of the money bags, so I hurried to look for it, but I didn't expect the girl to be there. Pang Song's face did not change and lied, "Hey, is the girl alone? Oh yes, you said that you came to find your father, the wilderness and the moon is dark and the wind is high, this is not very safe, it is better for my brothers to accompany you." ”
In this situation, Nangong Fei always felt that what he said was not quite right, so he tried to smile a little better.
The woman didn't react any extra way, just nodded her head slightly, and continued on her own way, letting them follow.
After walking for a short while, a small white bird flew over, chirped at the woman a few times, and flew forward.
The woman smiled and quickened her pace, running faster than the horse, leaving only a biting chill in place.
At this point, it is almost certain that this woman is not an ordinary person, and it is not even easy to say whether she is a person or not. Pang Song was fearless, he concluded that the old man was in danger and it was impossible to leave it alone, and he had the intention to let Nangong Fei stay where he was, but he also knew that this kid might not listen to him, so he said: "Chase!"
Before the words fell, the people had already fled out.
In the jungle, the old man was held in the woman's hand, and the other hand held a dagger made of ice against his heart: "Finally found." ”
