Chapter 67 Mai and Thin Horse Out of the Rivers and Lakes

The red dust faded away and the lead was stained, and the linen clothes were thin horses. Fighting the sword Jianghu boy.

Looking at the lanterns and swords in the fog, chivalrous and courageous, the inhuman heroes have a thousand changes.

The snake swallows the elephant and the bird swallows the reckless, and the bird spreads its wings, wanting to compete with the heavenly father.

The big waves and rocks flow with the river, and the dragon goes out to sea, turning the clouds and raising the fog and cold scales.

Just like Chu Daiyan said, the rivers and lakes are like a chessboard, and some people are not even pawns, but they are just up and down in this sea of suffering, trying to settle down, and it is even more difficult to talk about helping the world if they are unable to protect themselves.

As soon as you enter the rivers and lakes, you will be as deep as the sea, and the big waves will sweep the sand, and you will be able to sweep away the heroes of the world.

Some people are willing to spend the rest of their lives like mediocrity and rocks, and some people are born out of thin air for a moment even though they are only for a moment, like fireworks.

Everyone has a dream of rivers and lakes, and Chu Lan is no exception, whether the rivers and lakes are a filthy place with "three inches of snow on the branches and a few cups of cold in the world", or a place where swords and swords, happiness and revenge, heroes and strange people from all walks of life gather, Chu Lan doesn't know, or both exist in it.

He said goodbye to his family, did not tell the three brothers, and did not glance at his parents before going out, because he was afraid that he would be reluctant to leave.

Chu Lan was holding the old horse in his hand, very thin, not like a horse at first glance, but more like a mule.

But this mule-like horse is as stubborn as a donkey, Chu Lan sits on him, it walks slowly, and after walking two steps, it stalks its head, dead or alive, Chu Lan tugged at the corners of his mouth, good guy, this horse is surprisingly lazy, and it is really the best.

To be honest, Chu Lan regretted a little, there were so many sturdy horses in the backyard of his family, but he chose such a one, and Chu Daiyan had persuaded him to change one many times at that time.

Chu Lan said old-fashioned, "Dad, it's too conspicuous, you don't know, you're not afraid of thieves stealing outside, you're afraid of thieves." ”

"Besides, it's not in a hurry, it's good to enjoy the scenery slowly, right?"

Chu Daiyan opened his mouth, and before he could say anything, he was preempted by Chu Lan and said, "It's okay Dad, this horse has a fate with me, do you see him baring his teeth and laughing?"

"Are you sure?"

Chu Lan's eyes were still the same, and he said firmly, "Sure!"

He could still remember that Chu Daiyan glanced at him meaningfully at that time, and his expression could be described as wonderful.

Now he has a feeling of being slapped in the face, and he really wants to slap himself twice.

"If you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer in front of you" The ancients did not deceive me!

But then the old horse poked his head out, rubbed his head kindly against his collar, and then bared his teeth and smiled at him. It's almost a "son, ahhh

"Brother, are you sure you didn't have the wrong baby?"

The sun was very good, and there were willow trees on both sides like soldiers lined up, and the branches danced lightly, as if welcoming passers-by again, but in Chu Lan's eyes, it was a naked mockery.

Originally, it was a thin horse in fresh clothes, and poetry and wine took advantage of the age of the youth.

Chu Lan's heart was full of yearning for the blood of the rivers and lakes, and the ambition of Ling Yun in his chest almost erupted.

Now, because he picked the wrong mount, he started his career in such a farcical way.

Chu Lan was messy in the wind"。。。。。。 ”

After a day of slow walking, I finally stepped into the boundary of Pizhou, and walked all the way to the west, and I saw a border town in the distance.

A middle-aged man led two five or six-year-old children up the rugged continent.

It is already dusk, and the light of the setting sun is sprinkled on the three figures, as if a layer of light has been crossed, and the middle-aged man's face does not seem to be sweat, but now it is more like a pearl on his face.

Chu Lan went out at about three or five o'clock in the morning yesterday and walked for a whole day, wanting to find a quiet place tonight and get a good night's sleep.

A delicate boy raised his head to look at his father, who was walking in front with a hoe, and said sweetly, "Dad, do you think our harvest will be good this year?"

The middle-aged man smiled, took out a free hand and touched his little head, "It will be fine, in addition to the public food paid, there will be a lot left, and you will go back at night and ask your mother to help you make rice to eat?"

"Really, really?" the little girl asked with a little look on her face.

The northern part of the country is dominated by food, and the south is rich in rice, and in this kind of border place where transportation is already inconvenient, fragrant rice is really a rare delicacy for children. So when they heard that there was rice to eat when they went back, their eyes showed hope.

The two immature children walked with much lighter steps.

The father looked at the appearance of the two children, smiled, and knew that he was bitter.

Chu Lan frowned, catching the bitter expression of the middle-aged man, thinking to himself that this shouldn't be, the land here looks quite fertile, and at least one family can be supported by farming alone, why is it that a family of three is dressed so shabby?

One large, two small, three figures were dressed in patched clothes, washed and white, but clean.

The middle-aged man looked up into the distance and saw a black-robed young man, holding a horse with one hand, galloping forward.

He rubbed his eyes, and when he looked again, it was completely different from just now, the young man was leading a group of thin old horses and walking leisurely, his face was extremely calm. Where is the horrific scene just now?

Watching her father rub her eyes, the little girl's immature face was full of concern, "Dad, what's wrong with you?"

The middle-aged man waved his hand and said, "It's okay, Dad was dazzled just now, and I saw the young boy in front of me running with a horse on his back."

The little girl laughed, "Daddy is so stupid, where does anyone use the horse as a mount"

Chu Lan exhaled, fortunately, he reacted in time just now, otherwise his actions would not have frightened these three people.

The horse turned around and looked at Chu Lan kindly, his eyes were almost narrowed into a slit, and he looked at Chu Lan with his big teeth. It's like thanking you for the behavior of carrying yourself forward along the way.

Maybe it's the first time in this life that someone has used him as a mount.

Chu Lan pulled the corners of her mouth and kicked the old horse's buttocks, at that time, it was not a few miles out of Chu's house, and the surrounding area was barren, and the horse couldn't leave.

He didn't want to just leave this only "souvenir" brought out of his home here, so he had no choice but to make another "Thomas Chu Heavenly King"

Chu Lan wanted to complain, what kind of life did he have, why did he encounter such a situation twice on horseback?

He tried to make his expression look as natural as possible, and the distance between him and the three of them was getting closer and closer.

This time, he didn't wear a spirit fox mask, because he was in a foreign land, and no one knew him.

Chu Lan's body became more and more slender, he soaked in the Dragon Transformation Pool for seven days, and practiced the Wind and Thunder Body Technique, his body was much taller, except for some immaturity on his face, he was already a beautiful boy.

His black hair was like a waterfall, and he was casually tied with strips of cloth, and although he wore not very precious clothes, this kind of clothing seemed to the little girl to be delicate enough.

The little girl blushed, tugged at the corner of her father's clothes, and carefully hid behind, just tilting her head to secretly look at the figure that was getting closer and closer.

"This brother Zhang is so beautiful."

The little boy was also full of little stars, and he also stretched out his little hand and touched his face, "When I grow up, I want to be so handsome"

"But why did the corners of this brother's mouth twitch?"

"How is it possible, you are looking at the wrong brother"

Chu Lan's hearing was amazing, and he heard the conversation between the two sisters and brothers from a distance. Subconsciously reached out and touched his angular face.

"Is it really that handsome?

His heart has changed a lot now, he is no longer the cold touch he had before, he is a little softer, and he does not have the sharp aura that swordsmen often have, this is the result of playing chess with Chu Daiyan for three days, and he has gradually mastered the control of murderous energy.

He is calm and is a harmless big boy next door, like a spring breeze, but when someone arouses the intention of killing, then sorry, you will find that his horror is more like a Yama from the ground.

He stood in the shadow of the willow tree, quietly waiting for the three of them to draw closer.

"Big brother, is there an inn in that town ahead? I'm from out of town, and it's getting late, and I'm looking for a place to stay for the night. ”

Chu Lan asked as she clasped her fists at the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man's name is Zhang Tiezhu, he paused for a moment, and then hurriedly bowed, and the scholar Chu Lan's touch stiffly returned the salute.

He put down his hoe, leaned on the ground, looked at the young man in black with a big sword in front of him, and spoke

"This boy, there used to be an inn in this town for pedestrians to rest, but later... ”

Chu Lan wondered, "What happened later?"

"Oh, don't say it, it's going to be closed later"

Chu Lan sighed a little disappointed, thinking that she would probably have to sleep in the open tonight

Seeing Chu Lan's somewhat lost expression, Zhang Tiezhu hurriedly said

"Otherwise, if the son doesn't dislike it, how about coming to our house to spend the night today?"

"Okay, okay, then bother"

Looking at the handsome face standing in front of her, the little girl's face was as red as an apple, and she had been hiding behind her father, looking a little cramped and uneasy. Hearing that this good-looking brother was coming to his house for one night, he glanced at his younger brother and jumped excitedly.

The little boy was not afraid of life, he stepped forward and hugged Chu Lan's thigh, he raised his little head, "Big brother, you are so good-looking." ”

The little girl came out from behind her father, knocked on her brother's head, pinched her waist, and said, "Grassroots, it's rude for you to do this."

Chu Lan stretched out his hand and rubbed the heads of the two children, although he was only sixteen years old, but seeing the innocent appearance of the two children, he thought of when he was five or six years old, when he seemed to be beaten by his father for lifting the stone lion in front of the door to scare passers-by. I can't help but feel that time flies so fast.

The red glow is shining, and the child's heart is even more splendid.

It is actually a little inappropriate to say that it is a small town, there is no place like a wine shop inn, it is a very small village, the people in the village are very enthusiastic, and they keep greeting Zhang Tiezhu, and some women are laughing when they see Chu Lan.

"Well, this is Tiezhu's nephew, who is really handsome, why don't you marry my daughter to him, hahaha"

"Sister Zhang, don't talk nonsense, this is a son from out of town, and he just came to my house to spend the night today."

"Then you'll have to be entertained."

Zhang Tiezhu turned his head and glanced at Chu Lan apologetically. Seeing that the other party had a smile on his face, he was relieved

Chu Lan didn't hate the outspoken words of the villagers, but the little girl hugged the corners of Chu Lan's clothes tightly, her eyes were open, and her two cheeks seemed to have two eggs hidden, bulging, and she tried her best to put on a fierce look, as if she was afraid that Chu Lan would be snatched away.

But her current appearance is even more playful and cute, causing everyone to laugh

Along the way, the two children have become familiar with Chu Lan, and the little girl is no longer as cramped as she was at the beginning, and now she is dragging Chu Lan's clothes with her younger brother left and right.

The village is indeed not wealthy, with mud walls and thatched roofs, but a few houses that look a little dilapidated as if they have been run over by bulldozers, not natural damage.

Zhang Tiezhu led Chu Lan all the way into the house, pushed open the wooden fence, and saw a middle-aged woman weaving, but she was not ordinary, not even like the people in this village, and did not have the earthy atmosphere of other villagers.

The woman raised her eyes and saw her husband leading the children home, hurriedly put down the front work in her hands, looked at the sister and brother who were a little tanned by the sun, and felt a little distressed, and just wanted to come out and hug them, and saw the black-clothed young man who followed behind her and carried a big sword.
