Volume 1: A Boy Comes from the Mountains Chapter 127 All actions are under command
Chenfeng and Bai Zhuo were a little afraid of the well rope after being bitten by a snake for ten years, and after confirming that someone was approaching, they were worried about meeting a second pock-faced mother-in-law or a black-faced grandfather or something like that, and both of them looked like they were facing a great enemy.
On the other hand, Hu Ying and Yao Ling'er both showed a very curious look, with an eager expression. It's no wonder that Hu Ying has never seen any other human beings except Lian Chengyu and Chenfeng, and Yao Ling'er doesn't know how many years it has been dull, so she naturally hopes to see a more lively scene.
Bai Zhuo looked at Hu Ying and Yao Ling'er, who were inexplicably excited, and couldn't help but grow his head for a while. Whether he heard it from Bai Ze or read it from the book, he knew a truth a long time ago: In this world, the most difficult thing to guess is the human heart, the coolest is the human heart, and the most dangerous thing is the human heart.
When Bai Zhuo was worried, the sound of chatter, laughter, and carriages in the distance gradually became clear, and listening to the source of the sound, I was afraid that it would not be long before I met him. Bai Zhuo had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "No matter who comes later, try not to speak, and leave everything to me." ”
Hu Ying and Yao Ling'er: "???"
As soon as Bai Zhuo's words fell, Hu Ying and Yao Ling'er stared at themselves in unison, with several big question marks written on their faces, as if they were seeing Bai Zhuo for the first time, which made Bai Zhuo a little cramped and didn't know how to explain.
"Listen to him, that's right. Chenfeng helped Bai Zhuo say a word in a timely manner.
"It's coming!"
Bai Zhuo first glanced at the morning breeze gratefully, turned his head and saw a group of people coming slowly at the corner of the road with a carriage, and said without looking back: "Remember, especially you two, just treat yourself as dumb." ”
While Chenfeng and the others were waiting, the people and horses walking on the opposite side naturally saw the four people standing in a line in the middle of the road. After a brief moment of consternation, the group of centaurs seemed to confirm that there were no adults around, and then quickened their pace, and in a short time they came to the four.
"Four...... Heroes, we are from the Ding family in Liangzhou, East and West, I don't know what advice the four of you have?"
That team of centaurs was none other than the group after the battle with the jackals not long ago, and it was the big man with scars who was standing opposite at the moment.
The scarred man's polite words made Chenfeng and the others a little inexplicable, and even the four of them stood in the middle of the road in one word at the moment, blocking each other's way, and they didn't know it, four people, you look at me, I look at you, and no one talked to you for a while.
Because he couldn't figure out the origin of the other party, the experienced big man didn't have any contempt for Chenfeng and the others because they were young, on the contrary, in this barren and wild place, four people of this age were so calm and calm in the face of more than a dozen big men blocking the way, it was definitely not as simple as it seemed.
If Dahan knew the heel of the four of Morrowind, he would be shocked and not say anything, but he was afraid that he would be a little embarrassed. In addition, I don't know how I would feel if I knew that the composure on the faces of the four people at this moment was just the result of being speechless.
"I'm waiting to follow Master into the mountain to practice, and his old man has something important to do and left for the time being, but he should be coming soon, and the imprint left on us can be felt. ”
Bai Zhuo was the first to come back to his senses, and said slowly, some of them were three hundred taels of silver here, and as he spoke, he pulled the other three to the side of the road inexplicably.
Sure enough, after Bai Zhuo made up some nonsense, the big man with the scar was surprised, not to mention, even the big butler who didn't want to pay attention to this matter was interested, and slowly walked to the front from the carriage and hugged his fists and said: "Oh? I don't know which immortal family a few little friends are sent from, out of Canglan Mountain is Xiliangzhou, if it is convenient, can you go to Ding's house to stay for a few days, our family master likes to make friends with heroes and heroes in the world the most." ”
Among the four people, Bai Zhuo is good at observing words and feelings, and from the housekeeper's words and demeanor, he can't see that the other party has believed what he said, so he can only go to the black with his head on the head, and he also hugged his fists and said: "The family teacher is an idle cloud and wild crane, but he has been in the world for many years, and he is used to being casual, and he doesn't want to involve too much red dust cause and effect, but I'm afraid it's ......."
Bai Zhuo is not a person who has read books, and in a few words, he explained the reason as if it were true, especially the helpless tone at the end, even Hu Ying and Yao Ling'er couldn't help but believe it.
"So you're such a Bai Zhuo!"
Hu Ying and Yao Ling'er couldn't speak, and they each thought the same thing in their hearts.
"I see!"
The butler showed the same expression as he was, and sighed to himself.
"I have good intentions, don't pass by, he will inevitably come to the door to disturb him in the future, and I hope that the seniors will not be strange. ”
Bai Zhuo felt that his acting skills had reached the limit, so he had to get off the donkey and put forward the meaning of separation.
"Okay, well, it should be like this, a few little friends, please. The butler clenched his fists again, a harmless smile on his face.
The butler returned to the side of the carriage, and the woman in the carriage remained silent from beginning to end, as if it did not exist, and all the way people passed by Chenfeng and the others and walked forward without stopping.
The old man's eyes were so vicious that I was so uncomfortable that I almost showed my stuff. ”
After the carriage walked away, Bai Zhuo couldn't help but let out a sigh, it turned out that what he said to him before was usually fake.
"Da Da Da!"
Chenfeng wanted to praise Bai Zhuo a few words, but before he could say anything, the sound of a carriage was heard again in the distance, but it was the old man who rode back alone again for some reason.
"A few little friends, this place is not peaceful, if you want to come and go, I will escort you for a ride, and it will not be too late for you to leave when your master returns. ”
The steward sat on horseback with a bright smile, not knowing what was in his heart.
"Don't worry about the seniors, Master, his old man should come over in a short time. ”
Bai Zhuo put on the mask again and said with some gratitude.
"Don't you have the mark left by your master, afraid that he won't find you?
For some reason, the butler insisted on taking the four of them on the way.
"Could it be that a few little friends believe that my Ding family is a person......?"
Before Bai Zhuo could speak again, the butler continued, and as he finished saying this, the smile on his face gradually disappeared.
"Where, where, not really. Can I discuss it with my junior brothers and sisters for a moment?" Bai Zhuo hurriedly explained.
"What's there to discuss? Could it be that Xiaoyou really looks down on my Ding family?"
The butler's sudden aggressiveness made Bai Zhuo a little uncomfortable, and he was a little short of words for a while, and he didn't know how to deal with it.
"Then I'm tired of the seniors!" said Morrowind as the first thing he said after seeing the group.
When the butler returned with the four of them, more than a dozen shirtless men were waiting quietly in place, surrounding the carriage in the middle, as if guarding a treasure.
"There are still about twenty days to go to Dongtu, and some of our excellent horses have been fed to the demon beasts in the mountains, so we can only walk on foot. After the butler dismounted, he apologized at first.
"It's okay, thank you seniors for taking it in. Invisibly, Morrowind has become the image spokesperson of the four.
"Well, everyone, don't be inhibited. The housekeeper put down a word, and sat on the wheel of the carriage and drove the carriage on, ignoring Morrowind and the others, it seemed that he was really just taking Morrowind and the others out of kindness.
"How?"
Chenfeng and the others walked at the back of the line, Bai Zhuo lowered his voice and asked Chenfeng beside him.
Chenfeng looked at the shirtless men walking in front, there was no sadness or joy on his face, he couldn't see any emotion, after listening to Bai Zhuo's inquiry, he first glanced at the carriage, and then whispered: "It's hard to say, it feels a little wrong, for the sake of caution, it's better to find a chance to leave." ”
"Well, I think so too, you can't hold fire in paper. ”
Bai Zhuo and Chenfeng reached a unity, and both of them were silent, constantly thinking about what excuse to leave, ignoring Yao Ling'er and Hu Ying around them from beginning to end, and the two of them were indeed like mutes, and they were always silent.
The group walked all the way, and there were no waves, but those shirtless men, from time to time some people turned their heads to look at the few people walking at the back, and some people couldn't help but whisper to each other, obviously very curious about Morrowind and the others, but for some reason, they didn't come over to talk.
A few hours later, as the sun set, the carriage stopped at a flat stream. The big men began to be busy, some went to the creek to get water, some looked for firewood to make a fire, and some brandished a big knife to cut meat, a busy scene.
The four of them stood idle, watching the busy crowd for a while, not knowing what to do, and were inexplicably brought here by the big housekeeper, although the direction of travel was not wrong, but they always felt strange in their hearts.
"Go sit over there for a while?"
Bai Zhuo touched the morning breeze beside him with his elbow, snorted his mouth, pointed to a big tree in the distance, and motioned for the morning breeze to come over and speak.
Chenfeng nodded lightly, and walked side by side with Bai Zhuo under the big tree, Hu Ying and Yao Ling'er followed suit, following closely behind the two, but they were inevitably a little curious about the scene in front of them, and couldn't help but turn back one step at a time, feeling very curious about the busy figures of the big men.
The four of them sat around the big tree, and Bai Zhuo muttered thoughtlessly: "Sheep into the tiger's mouth?"
"Hmm!"
Chenfeng's gaze was still wandering on the big men, and after listening to Bai Zhuo's words, he nodded slightly.
But Hu Ying and Yao Ling'er were confused, why did they still play dumb riddles? Since they met this pair of people, Chenfeng and Bai Zhuo were very cautious tacitly, even more cautious than when they entered the land of Taiyin and met Bimeng, could it be that these people are more dangerous than the jackals, tigers and leopards?
"Wait and see what happens, and don't be careless. Bai Zhuo's face was full of worry.
At the same time, while the four of Morrowind were plotting under the big tree, the big men were indeed busy with themselves, while the butler was still sitting on the wheel, his eyes closed.
"See what?"
A soft woman's question came from the carriage, and the butler slowly opened his eyes.
The housekeeper first glanced at Chenfeng and the others with a faint squint, and then replied in a low voice: "It's not much for the time being, I can only see that the cultivation is average." But ......"
"But what?"
Seeing that the housekeeper was a little speechless, the woman in the car hurriedly asked, seemingly very curious about Chenfeng and the others.
The butler first groaned for a while, and then said in a slur manner: "But, but I can't see through the bottom line, I can wander around here unscathed at such an age, I don't know what to rely on." ”
"Didn't the man say he came with their master......?
The woman in the car obviously heard Bai Zhuo's words at the beginning, and couldn't help but be a little puzzled at the moment.
The housekeeper smiled to himself, and then said slowly: "Liar, Miss, the rivers and lakes are sinister, you have to remember, except for the relatives who have been with you for many years, everyone must be on guard." ”
There was no sound in the car, as if she was in thought, she didn't ask the housekeeper how she saw through Bai Zhuo's lie, and she didn't ask the housekeeper anything more, only the sound of the busy laughter of the big men around her didn't come.
Chenfeng and the others couldn't have imagined that Bai Zhuo's seemingly perfect acting skills had been discovered by the vicious-eyed housekeeper, and he was still planning how to continue pretending at the moment.
The butler sat on the wheel, his eyes squinting slightly, his cloudy eyes looking through the busy crowd at the low mountains in the distance, not knowing what was going on in his mind.
