Next Chapter

In the cold and summer season, on a spacious avenue, a thin figure walked. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

'Whew~~~Huh~~'

"It should be, it's almost there, the village chief said, go south for two days, it is Lingzhou City' The young man, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, coarse linen clothes, stretched out a hand and panted to wipe the sweat on his forehead, probably because of the two days of hurrying, the advantage of dark skin.

His surname is Jiang, a single name is a fox character, just an ordinary person in a village two days away from Lingzhou City, well, probably an ordinary person, anyway, he has no father and no mother, he has been picked up by the village since he was a child, when he was picked up, there was a jade plate with the word 'fox' hanging on his chest, and he was raised by the food of one person in the village, and with the special care of the head of Jiangjia Village, he has lived steadily until now.

No, it's the annual Krathong Festival in Jiangjia Village this year, and Jiang Hu was sent to purchase materials and some sundries for making Krathong.

Lingzhou City, not big or small, because of the prosperity, it feeds many nearby villages, Jiangjia Village, is just one of most villages.

According to the village chief's prompt, Jiang Hu walked on the official road, because it was safe, and he was also afraid of meeting villains such as bandits, and he might not stop day and night.

'Huh, rest, it should be almost there' After wiping his sweat, Jiang Hu sat down against the ashamed tree next to him, it seemed that he was really tired.

It's ten o'clock at noon, and the official road is also longing, there are many people like Jiang Hu, rushing on foot, maybe he is too inconspicuous, basically no one has seen him directly.

Whatever, anyway, he is also a person who doesn't like to talk, since he was a child, he is like this, no matter whether he knows this person or not, as long as you don't take the initiative to speak, Jiang Hu will never say a word.

Maybe it's because of the orphans, he always has a kind of vigilance towards the people around him, even in Jiangjia Village, where he was raised, Jiang Hu is not willing to touch too many things, of course, unless it is a special request or a condition that the people in the village can't refuse.

Like this time, in the face of the village chief's request, he refused at first, but later, the village chief gave him a condition that he could not refuse.

The village chief said that if he had enough materials for this purchase, he would give him the old books in his yard.

He likes to read, well, this is a temptation that can't be refused, the word is taught by the village chief since childhood, living in this poor and difficult village, in addition to reading, Jiang Hu has no more interest in doing other things, his body is average, he doesn't like to play with the children who grew up in the village since he was a child, and when he is quiet, he almost always stays in the house and the readers borrow books, or practice practicing the words in the book, sometimes a little harder, at most clean the dust in the house.

He's not stupid, but he's not smart, maybe a little simple, because no one cares about him, he doesn't know anything about the world, so he doesn't have too much contact with the people in the village, I only know that the village chief is the best person in the world for him.

Speaking of the village chief of Jiangjia Village, the situation is basically the same as him, helpless, because he used to be a scholar, and he knows some personnel, and the amount of knowledge is also highly respected in this small Jiangjia Village, so it is logical to become the village head, to put it mildly, in this village, those who have read books, I'm afraid he is alone, he is not the village head, who should be?

Taking out the bamboo tube and taking a sip of the water he brought, Jiang Hu quietly looked up at the sky, a little narrow-minded.

The stall touched the money in his arms, and felt a little relieved.

In his mind, it is not surprising that his life can be regarded as a freeze frame, he can read a book quietly if he has nothing to do, and live a life of coarse tea and light food, at most, it is like now, walk around Lingzhou City, see the world, people are middle-aged, they may be said to be a daughter-in-law, and in their later years, they may be like the village chief of Jiangjia Village, being a respected old man, although he is not a scholar, but he has also read books, this body, I'm afraid that's it.

Thinking about it, Jiang Hu was a little distracted, looking at the sky fixedly, his heart was a little throbbing, and he always felt that this life was so long, it was not as simple as he imagined

After resting for a while, feeling that his physical strength had been replenished, Jiang Hu hurriedly got up from the ground, patted the dust on his buttocks, and prepared to continue his journey.

It's not early, according to his current speed, before dark, he should be able to rush to Lingzhou City, and then stay for one night, early tomorrow morning, after shopping, looking at the scenery of Lingzhou, he can almost go back to the village.

Like instinctively, he just walked a few steps, he felt a tremor on the ground, if it was two days ago, he might not have felt what it was when he just left the village, but now he understands, this is the shock of the horses in a hurry, in two days, on the official road, I have seen more than one horse galloping, generally according to this situation, he only needs to get out of the way, at most he will eat a face of ash, and when the horse has passed, he can continue to walk.

The horse came quickly, almost in a moment, rushed to his face, immediately sat someone, Jiang Hu didn't see it clearly, and the ghost sent the gods, Jiang Hu stood quietly aside, took out a hard steamed bun from the baggage, well, I haven't eaten it for two days, the steamed bun is really hard, weighed the weight, and quietly waited for the horse to rush in front of him, just when the horse's butt was so far away from him that he was sideways, towards the person on the horse, Jiang Hu threw out his only steamed bun.

"Smack", accompanied by a 'ouch' sound is still a little good, it may be a woman, Jiang Hu saw the figure on the horse with an expressionless face, and fell down.

The moment he fell, he saw clearly, it was indeed a woman, although he only looked at the back, but judging from the graceful figure, eight or nine are not far from ten, isn't that how the book explains.

A light blue silk gauze dress, the clothes that fit it, covering which section of the convex and backward figure.

The falling figure splashed smoke and dust all over the ground, and the choked Jiang Fox was all over his face, and he didn't continue to get close to the other party, just standing a few meters away and waiting.

Wait, wait for the smoke to clear, wait for the other person to get up from the ground where they fell.

What the hell does Jiang Hu want to do, if he just wants to borrow a horse!

That's right, he just wanted to borrow a horse, because he was a little tired of hurrying, and the speed of the other party's horse was so fast, the other party might not necessarily listen to the shouting, and he estimated that he would also eat a face of soil, and if he forcibly blocked the road, he might really stop the other party, but according to his calculations, he would also be seriously injured, and as a last resort, he threw the steamed bun.

'Who are you?' Why are you blocking my way? If you can't tell me why, Miss Ben wants you to look good.'

In the dust and smoke, a dazzling cold light flashed, shining and chilling, it was the light reflected by the sunlight on the long sword, some dazzling, some terrifying.

The owner of the voice was a little young, and there was a bit of tenderness in his tone.

Jiang Hu just stood motionless, as if he was frightened stupid, watching the chilling long sword get closer and closer to him.

In the face of danger, Jiang Hu did a good job of being a scholar in the face of danger, he was not arrogant or impatient, his eyes revealed a trace of coldness, and said slowly.

'Someone's coming!'

As soon as the words came out, time seemed to stand still, and before half a minute passed, the cold long sword stopped straight in front of the bridge of Jiang Hu's nose, without the slightest strength.

'What did you say!'

The dust and smoke were slowly drifting away, gradually revealing a beautiful cheek, some good-looking, long eyelashes shaking in the cold wind, big eyes, cherry-like lips.

Anyway, in Jiang Hu's eyes, the girl in front of him was indeed a little good-looking, so he was a little stunned when he saw him.

After a few breaths, Jiang Hu moved his gaze back from that good-looking face, his face was slightly red, so he didn't dare to look at the other party's eyes anymore, turned his head and said lightly.

'Listen, there's a lot of horses coming from behind, and I guess they're chasing you!'

With a hoarse voice, Jiang Hu's voice was a little low, as if he was telling a terrible thing.

Because of the speed of the horses, the strong shaking of the ground means that at least no less than 10 horses are galloping, and at the current speed, it will be possible to reach this place in a moment at most. ’

Simply patting the tobacco deposited on his shoulder, Jiang Hu looked calm.

"Hmph, so what, this is not the reason for you to hit me with steamed buns, villain, how do you explain that" The girl didn't seem to realize the seriousness of the matter, and still remembered the incident of Jiang Hu beating her, and at this time she also saw the murder weapon rolling down on the side of the road in the distance.

For this kind of thing, Jiang Hu rolled his eyes helplessly, glanced at his steamed bun, and said again, "Oh, I'm sorry for this matter, I'm sorry, I just want to borrow a horse, I think, a beautiful and generous young lady like you will not refuse a poor person who is desperate on the way to call for help, you are so kind, so I dare to smash you, is this reason okay? Also, if you don't leave, you will be in trouble, remember to take me." ’
