It's still late at night, and the rain alley is still good.

After slashing Boss Yan with a knife, Qian Yi easily asked about the whereabouts of the little girl.

The little girl's name is Yun Weiwei, her grandmother died half a year ago, a month ago, the only small courtyard was forcibly occupied by a group of beggars, and some people in the neighborhood wanted to help, but they were beaten so that they couldn't get out of bed for half a month.

With Boss Yan behind their backs, this group of beggars who had been despised in the past were naturally extremely ruthless in their revenge, threatening everyone that if they dared to help Xiao Weiwei, even if they gave a piece of rice, they would be ready to fall into the same fate as Xiao Weiwei! Of course, if they had the courage to report to the official, they would be ready to be killed by the whole family.

At first, this group of beggars did not intimidate the neighbors, everyone took their hoes and sickles, and planned to beat this group of doves occupying the magpie's nest so that even Nuwa Niangniang couldn't recognize it, but they didn't expect that Boss Yan made a move.

The result speaks for itself, the crowd suffered a fiasco, ten wounded and two disabled.

Seeing that hard work is not a way, someone planned to report to the official late at night, but before he could see the yamen, he was caught by two beggars who had already been ambushed, and his legs were directly broken, and he was thrown back in blood.

This time, everyone was really frightened.

In life, there are too many fetters, and no one is willing to sacrifice their lives for others, even if they bow to evil, they want to survive.

No one helped, Xiao Wei lived on the streets, begging along the street during the day, and curled up under the stone arch bridge of the Qinxiang River at night, hugging his knees, crying quietly, like a wounded little beast, silently licking his wounds.

My brother is gone, my grandmother won't come back, and now I can't even go back to the only home I can hope for.

Xiao dried his tears slightly, and his dark eyes looked at the dark night.

Although spring has arrived, it is no longer as cold as the previous days, but the rain has fallen, and the residual cold is still the bones of the spring breeze, making her unable to sleep.

She misses her brother and grandmother, like this non-stop spring rain.

Chiyi, at this time, walked up to the little girl.

He was on the bridge, slightly under the bridge.

Qian Yi didn't immediately appear in front of Xiao Weiwei, he thought about it, thinking about how to speak, but he had only accumulated thirty-seven days of communication experience, which was too thin for him to make up a decent comforting word.

But there was one thing that Chiya knew had to do.

He took out the last letter from the basket, walked under the bridge, and said when the little girl was about to run away, "Your brother's letter." ”

Xiao stopped slightly.

Turning around, I saw a strange young man standing in the rain with a letter in his hand.

I couldn't see my eyebrows clearly in the night, but Xiao Wei felt that the young man should be smiling, smiling slightly.

Three years of desolation made Xiao Weiwei have an extraordinary distance from strangers, but for some reason, maybe it was the inexplicable cordiality of the young man, maybe it was because the letter in the young man's hand came from his brother who was thinking about it, or maybe he was worried that the spring rain would wet the letter, so Xiao Weiwei ran back.

In the dark night, the rain was still fine, but it seemed to be sprinkled with moonlight.

......

The night will disappear, and the day will be bright.

The city listened to the rain and waited for the rooster to sing, and the lights were on in the floating restaurant.

For the shopkeeper, all-night marketing is really not a cost-effective thing, because no one will come to the restaurant except for ghosts in the middle of the night. Tonight, though, is a special case.

A woman in a black robe and carrying a long sword sat in the restaurant.

The guest room had been filled seven days ago by the candidates who had entered Beijing to take the exam, and there was no vacancy in the firewood room and stable, so she had to sit quietly all night until dawn.

This kind of thing, Qian Ye is happy to see.

After delivering the last letter, he felt hungry and wanted to eat something.

Xiao Weiwei was also very hungry and went to the Fusheng Restaurant together, but she insisted that she came with her to borrow some light to read the letter.

Along the way, although Qianyi was worried that the letter would be wet in Xiao Weiwei's hands, she planned to help hold it, but the little girl refused, and stubbornly held it in her arms, fortunately, the stone arch bridge was not far from the restaurant, and the two walked for half an hour.

When they arrived at the restaurant, the shopkeeper and Xiao Er were sleeping.

Although ten taels of silver made them willing to light the lamp for the woman in black all night, they did not intend to accompany the woman in black to sit all night.

"The shopkeeper. ”

Qian also called, but this was not much louder than the rustling rain outside the house, and it was really worse than the sound of mosquitoes floating past the ears of the two, and the two naturally did not react.

Qianyi's face remained unchanged, he glanced at the two of them, then looked at the woman in black in the meditation hall, and then suddenly walked towards the latter.

Qianyi walked three feet in front of the woman and stopped, and said clearly: "Childe, can you lend me this place to sit for a while......

However, before he finished speaking, the corner of his clothes was suddenly pulled twice, turned around, blushed slightly, and whispered: "People are girls." ”

Qian Yiyan's body suddenly stiffened, twisted his hair and found that this "boy in black" really had a wrong face, and was immediately embarrassed, thinking that he was the first time he had entered the world, when he was young and the night was in Baiding Mountain, and then went down the mountain, and went to Longcheng Valley, the demons and monsters saw a lot, but not many people saw it, and almost all of them were men, just thirty-seven days after entering the WTO, for him, the difference between men and women is the development of the chest muscles, especially when he saw Xiao Weiwei, the twelve-year-old girl is also a little stronger than his chest muscles, and he takes it as an iron law. Just now, he saw that this "boy in black" had a flat chest, and he thought that it should be a man, so he organized his words in an instant, and when he was slightly satisfied with the improvement of his communication skills, he didn't think that this person was actually a woman!

For a while, Qianya was there like a pestle of wood, and his face was calm and calm, but he couldn't say a word.

Yu Xunyan never thought that she would encounter such a thing, although she was not complacent with her appearance, but everyone who saw it praised the country's natural fragrance, sinking fish and geese, and thought that her appearance was not so good that people could not distinguish between men and women.

When she first heard someone call herself "Childe", for a moment she thought that the young man was doing it on purpose, but when she looked at it, she saw the strong calm look on the young man's face, and she didn't feel funny in her heart, knowing that the other party was unintentional, so she gave up and said softly: "Since you can see at a glance that this place is covered by me, it doesn't hurt to rest for a while." ”

Qian Yi exhaled silently: "Thank you......"

Slightly hesitant, he still asked, "Can I borrow the East Kitchen?"

Yu Xunyan replied, "Yes." ”

Qian also summoned Xiao Weiwei to sit down on the side, put down the bamboo basket, and went to the east kitchen.

Xiao Wei sat on a table next to Yu Xunyan, thanked Yu Xunyan timidly, and couldn't wait to take out his brother's letter from his arms and read it.

After just one glance, Xiao Wei was sure that the letter was written by his brother.

Because there was not a word on the letter.

Now the human race is fighting against the demons, although it is no longer said that "a woman is virtuous if she is not talented", but Xiaowei's family is poor, and like her brother, she has not learned since she was a child and is illiterate.

So on the letter, it is a painting that only a brother and sister can understand, one after another.

To tell the truth, this painting is really even worse than the "ghost painting peach charm", not only ugly, but also ugly to make people speechless, but Xiao Weiwei can see it tastefully, as if he is eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, and his face is full of happy smiles.

Seeing that the little girl was so happy to see it, and her clothes were very shabby, and then she thought of the young man with a long knife in white clothes and a bamboo basket on his back, Yu Xunyan suddenly remembered the scene of a few old people drinking heartily on a rainy night a few hours ago.

"I haven't heard from him for ten years, and now I know that this kid has been promoted to an official and has a hundred households!

"My kid is too, although he doesn't raise as fast as yours, but he's also a general flag!"

"Whether it's a hundred households, or a general flag, it's good if people are alive!"

Thanks to the young man who delivered the letter, he sent the letter in the rain late at night, but unfortunately he came back to his senses at that time, and the people had already gone away, otherwise he would have invited him to have a good drink!"

"Yes! I owe the boy a favor. ”

......

Several old people were drunk, struck and sang, floating the great white of life, and the second watch was closed.

At this time, seeing the letter in Xiao Weiwei's hand, Yu Xun Yanxin said, it turned out that the young man was the young man in the mouths of several old people, but more than half of the time, the young man seemed to have finished delivering the letter, and it seemed that he had been busy all night.

Just when Xiao Wei looked at the letter and Yu Xunyan was thinking about the origin of the young man, Qian Ye came out with three bowls of noodles, the heat was jubilant, like a hundred birds jumping on the branches, and I don't know what seasoning the young man used, the fragrance was even more refreshing, making people slightly drunk.

Yu Xunyan had already eaten dinner, and he was not a greedy person, but when he smelled the fragrance, he had a tendency to move his index finger, so he was going to decline the young man's kindness, but he hesitated slightly-

This young man has a good heart, and the noodles are already ready, why don't you accept his kindness?

When Yu Xunyan was going to accept the boy's noodles "reluctantly", the boy didn't come over at all, the three bowls of noodles were just placed on the table, a white light burst out from the boy's bamboo basket, and he happily ate the largest bowl, and looked at it, it was a snow-white puppy!

Xiao Weiwei obviously didn't expect that there were such cute things around Qianyi, especially when eating, this puppy that was not much bigger than a slap, and even had a decent look of holding chopsticks and eating noodles!

Xiao Wei was stunned, and he instantly fell in love with this little white dog in his heart, and even the letter paper that he treated like a baby a moment ago was no different from the paper that wiped his butt in the thatched house.

Yu Xunyan was also stunned, but she was angry.

Just now she saw that Qianyi served three bowls of noodles, and subconsciously thought that one of the bowls was made for herself, and finally persuaded herself to give the young man a chance, but unexpectedly, unexpectedly, this noodles had nothing to do with her at all, it was actually prepared for a puppy, and she was amorous in vain, and people didn't plan to take care of her at all.

Qian Yi turned his back to the rain and looked for smoke, although he felt that the latter's breath fluctuated a little, but he thought that it was the same as Xiao Weiwei, because he was lazy and lazy this little white dog.

Along the way, almost all the people who watched the lazy eating, especially those with "developed chest muscles", almost all had this kind of reaction, so Qian Yi didn't have a superfluous expression, sat down, and began to deal with the noodles in the bowl.

Xiao Weiwei came to her senses and began to eat noodles, but her eyes almost never left the laziness, and it was estimated that she didn't eat any taste, which was really a waste of noodles that some people in the back couldn't eat if they wanted to.

Soon, a bowl of noodles was eaten.

The speed of laziness is only faster than Qianyi, and finally the chopsticks are thrown, and he simply holds the sea bowl that is more than three times bigger than its head, and pours it directly into it, and the little belly is bulging, so he directly spreads out his belly, throws his four little short legs on the table, and falls asleep.

Qianyi carried the tail of the little one, threw it with an expressionless face, and threw the puppy into the bamboo basket. This kind of brutal behavior shocked the little girl "oops", stood up at once, hurriedly ran to the bamboo basket, and was relieved to see that the puppy was unscathed, but the distress did not diminish at all. When he looked at Qianyi again, he was obviously a little dissatisfied.

Qian Yi didn't expect that a move that seemed so ordinary to him would cause such a big reaction from the girl, and he thought to himself, if the latter knew that he had smashed a stone with his lazy head, would he go crazy?

Not daring to think about it, Qianyi cleared his throat and said, "After eating noodles, you can go home by yourself." Seeing that the little girl looked a little confused, she explained, "The group of beggars who occupied your house have been driven away by me, so you don't have to worry about it in the future." ”

After saying two sentences dryly, Qian Ye found that he had nothing to say, and that poor communication skills could not remind him to thank Yu Xun again, so he took out some broken silver from his arms, put it on the table, put the bamboo basket on his back, and went into the night.

Outside the house, the rain fell down, but it was no longer dripping, and gradually knocked a drop in twos and threes.

"Big brother!" the little girl suddenly stood up and called out to Chiya.

The young man turned around, his face was slightly red, and his voice was slightly branched: "You...... What's your name?"

"Chiya. Qianyi said.

"That'...... Where do you live, and will you come to Yong'an in the future?"

The boy didn't answer, and a bell rang outside the house.

Bang -

The morning bell and the dusk drum are the most melodious. The bell picked up the overnight rain, spread over the banks of the Qinxiang River, shook through the alleys of wine shops, and rippled out of the towering city walls.

This is the bell of Yourong Guoyuan, when the bell rings, it is like a rooster singing, and the world is white.

Chiya looked at the gradually clearer sky, as if there were clouds in the east and a rainbow floating in the west.

He said: "I came to Yong'an and went to Yourong Guoyuan. ”

After speaking, he smiled lightly, just like the first time he saw it.
