Volume 1 Holding the Sword Chapter 12 Such a Woman
Chen Bugui looked at the direction of the bed curtain, and the corners of his mouth smiled slightly, the young man could fully understand the girl's temptation and those threatening words.
Although it was Xu Wanning who offered to follow her, after all, the two had only known each other for a few hours, and now that the two of them were in the same room and she was still a cultivator, any woman would have this kind of vigilance.
Chen Bugui was relieved in his heart, and after softly saying goodnight, he blew out the candle on the table.
Darkness reigned in an instant.
Chen Bugui didn't think much about it, threw away those distracting thoughts in his mind, and began to sit cross-legged on the chair and close his eyes to recuperate.
Familiar with the mental method taught to him by Zhao Xuan in his body, those meager starlight in the sea began to run his whole body along the flow of the mental method.
A glimmer of light began to appear in the darkness.
It was a glimmer of starlight.
Immediately afterward, more and more starlight began to appear, and constantly entrenched over the boy's head.
It seems to have formed a galaxy.
The darkness is illuminated by the galaxy.
The tiny stars swirled around the boy's head, constantly circling and circling, emitting bursts of flickering light.
The boy seemed to be in a galaxy at the moment.
A crack was opened in the curtain of the bed, revealing a black and white eye in the starlight.
The girl's eyes reflected the stars that reflected each other, and she looked curiously at the boy in the galaxy.
This moment is like a freeze in time and space.
"Buzz!"
There was a buzz from the space, and the bright galaxy entrenched above the young man's head trembled for a while, and instantly submerged into the young man's body.
The starlight fades into the darkness.
The eye behind the curtain of the bed also disappeared.
Everything was only in a moment, but the eyes of the girl behind the bed curtain were unusually bright in this silent darkness.
This short and silent night was spent in the girl's wandering thoughts and the boy's silent practice......
The next day.
Chen Bugui woke up early from pranayama, raised his eyes to look at the morning light outside the window, and quietly went out when he was sure that the girl on the bed was still sleeping.
Waking up early has become a habit for teenagers.
It hasn't changed, ever before.
Chen Bugui walked out of the door of the inn and stepped into the market unhurriedly, although it was not yet the time of the hour, but the Akibara County had already shown a different kind of vitality.
The breakfast shops on both sides of the street are gradually busy, and the sound of people is laughing, and the hot air with the fragrance begins to rise.
The young man tightened the long strip of white cloth on his back, and strolled happily in the morning market with scattered figures.
Because he didn't know the girl's favorite tastes, the boy simply bought those breakfast snacks that seemed to be very appetizing.
When he came to a breakfast shop selling scones, the boy stopped.
He looked earnestly at the sizzling golden round cakes baked on the stove, and a flash of remembrance flashed in his eyes.
I didn't think you could see anything like this here......
This kind of scone is called Hu cake, and the first time Chen Bugui ate this thing was when he was ten years old, it was made for him by his grandfather, and it was also the most frequent thing he ate at that time.
Because it's cheap.
"Shopkeeper, bring me two pieces of Hu Biscuit and put more sesame seeds." The boy whispered without raising his head.
The stall owner, a thin man with a slightly yellowish sweat cloth on his shoulder, smiled and agreed, and began to sprinkle a sufficient amount of sesame seeds on the Hu cake according to Chen Bugui's instructions.
"A total of six cents, take it, guest officer." The shopkeeper packed two pieces of Hu Biscuit and handed them to the young man.
Chen Bugui took it with a smile, and after paying the man's bread, he returned to the inn.
When Chen Bugui pushed the door in, the girl behind the bed curtain was still asleep, without any movement.
"Miss Xu, get up and have breakfast."
After Chen Bugui put the various breakfast food in his hand on the table, he shouted softly in the direction of the bed.
After a while, there was a rustling sound in the curtain of the bed.
Immediately after, a sleepy-eyed head poked out.
The girl didn't seem to have woken up from her sleep, and at the moment she was half-squinting, and said in a daze, "I said...... You're so boring, and you've disturbed all your dreams. ”
"The plan of the day is in the morning." Chen Bugui looked at the girl's somewhat complaining face, shook his head and said.
"It's still early, you can let me sleep a little longer......" The girl automatically filtered Chen Bugui's educational words, glanced out the window, yawned and fell asleep again.
Chen Bugui looked at the rapidly retracted head, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
"It's okay, then Miss Xu, you can rest at ease, stay until noon, there will be a shopkeeper to call you, presumably with Miss Xu's abundant energy at that time, you will be able to make up for the regret of not being able to escape yesterday."
The young man broke the Hu Cake and put it into the white rice porridge, then took a sip with a calm expression, and continued to joke, "Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell Miss Xu that the amount I bought for breakfast is quite sufficient, and I may be able to satisfy the girl's appetite for today's appetite, as for how the girl will live next...... Then I don't know. ”
The young man stopped paying attention to it, and just lowered his head and ate seriously.
The room was unusually quiet, except for the sound of a teenager drinking porridge from time to time.
After a few moments, the silence, which had not lasted long, was broken by a sharp sound of exasperation.
"I'm so annoyed, I don't sleep in the morning, and I say a lot of things to disgust me."
Chen Bugui raised his head expressionlessly, looked at the girl who opened the bed curtain and walked over angrily, and pretended to be surprised: "Miss Xu, is she awake?!"
Looking at the girl's eyes as if she was about to be eaten alive, Chen Bugui felt a little funny for no reason.
The girl's anger in getting up was a little bigger.
Xu Wanning walked to the table, kicked the stool away and sat down, clasped her hands on her chest, and stared at the calm young man with a fierce look.
"Miss Xu, why are you looking at me like this?!" Chen Bugui showed a puzzled expression, then touched his face with his hand, and said, "Could it be that I have something on my face?!"
"Whew!" Xu Wanning was like a deep resentful woman, and said without any image, "I said that you are not bad, how can you be exactly the same as the annoying old man in my family, and you talk in a set way, smelly and hard!" ”
Chen Bugui looked at the girl's grievances with grievances, grievances with unwilling eyes, and laughed angrily, "Hey, I said, this is your fault." ”
"First of all, I got up early in the morning to buy you breakfast, and now instead of appreciating it, you beat me up."
"Secondly, what I said just now is also thinking about you, do you think, I still have to wake you up and eat today, but after today, what will you do?! Could it be like yesterday?! ”
"Anti-...... Anyway, I don't care, it's your fault. ”
Xu felt that Chen Bugui's words could not be refuted, and Xu Wanning simply put on an arrogant and unreasonable posture.
"If you don't eat it, it's going to be cold, don't waste my kindness." The boy raised an eyebrow and gestured to the food on the table.
"If you want to talk more, I'll eat it myself."
Xu Wanning muttered dissatisfiedly, then glanced at the sumptuous breakfast on the table, and reluctantly took a bowl of white rice porridge in front of her and ate it without a bite.
Chen Bugui lowered his head and nibbled on the steamed bun while studying the map in his hand, no longer paying attention to the girl.
"Hey, what did you mean by that, what should I do after today?!" Seeing that the young man bowed his head and ignored himself, the bored and unwilling girl finally broke the silence between the two.
"Oh, I almost forgot to reason with you just now." The young man took a bite of the steamed bun and replied without raising his head, "I'm almost leaving Akibara County today, so you better go home early, so as not to worry your family." ”
"I finally ran out, the ghost has to go back, even if I starve to death outside, I won't go back." Xu Wanning snorted coldly.
"Since you say that, I can't stop it." Chen Bugui raised his head and pouted, "Wait a minute, I'll leave you some silver, as long as you save some flowers, you can basically not go hungry, as for when you want to go back, or go there, I don't care." ”
Seeing that Chen Bu Return, whose attitude had changed 180 degrees, the girl wanted to speak and stopped.
"That'...... Can I come with you?! The girl asked tentatively, with a look on her face.
"You're with me?!" The young man shook his head without thinking about it and said, "Miss Xu, the place I'm going to is different from yours." ”
"Why is it a different road, this Qiuyuan County has reached the boundary of Hengzhou, I don't think you look like a local...... Don't tell me you're here to hang out in Hengzhou. ”
Seeing the young man's refusal, Xu Wanning suddenly looked like a cat with its tail stepped on.
"Well, this is where I'm going."
Chen Bugui didn't bother to answer the girl's words, and directly threw the map in his hand to Xu Wanning, and then pointed to the two big characters on the map and said, "So I said, Miss Xu, you and I are really not ......."
"Wait......"
Before Chen Bugui could say the second half of his sentence, he was interrupted by the girl.
"You're going to Sword Ridge?!"
Xu Wanning asked with a meaningful smile.
"How...... What's wrong, what's the problem. Chen Bugui looked at the girl's ill-intentioned and inexplicably excited appearance, and suddenly had an ominous premonition.
"Gee, you say it's a coincidence...... It's still fate. Xu Wanning moved towards the young man's side, dragged her chin with one hand, leaned in front of Chen Bugui, and said with a smile.
Chen Bugui had no intention of admiring the face that was close at hand, and at this moment, looking at Xu Wanning's smile, he only felt creepy in his heart.
Oh my God...... It can't be such a coincidence.
"Could it be that Miss Xu is also ...... I'm going to Jianling, too. Chen Bugui moved his body backwards with difficulty and swallowed his saliva.
"You're right." The girl squinted her eyes and replied word by word.
"Hey, this is the so-called providence of man." Xu Wanning looked at the young man with a smug face, and said gracefully, "Just now, you said that we are not all the way, and in the blink of an eye, we have become all the way, you say it is not a coincidence." ”
"Qiao...... That's a coincidence. The corners of Chen Bugui's mouth twitched.
Seeing Chen Bugui's deflated face, Xu Wanning didn't mention how happy she was.
Chen Bugui is extremely depressed now, originally thinking that he would be able to part ways with this aunt after today.
As a result, he didn't share it, and now he has to move forward side by side.
