Chapter 21: Transformation
readx;? Mu Wanling lay on the ground for a long time, tears streaming down her cheeks, and she couldn't stop it. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info she couldn't understand in her heart why this city lord was doing this to herself, she just came to ask for help, and she didn't have any hostility towards him.
"Could it be that everyone outside is like this?" Mu Wanling's heart was cold, and people came and went on the street, all of them just watched a few times like watching a good show and left in a hurry, and no one stepped forward to ask.
Mu Wanling lay down until the evening sunset was obliquely shining, the glow was shining, and she was grunting with hunger in her belly, so she had to struggle to pull the dragon beard horse to stand reluctantly, and slowly walked along the street in the direction of the fragrance, she walked for a while, stopped, and walked for a long time before she came to a small noodle shop.
The noodle restaurant's business is gradually booming at the moment, and Mu Wanling reached out and touched her pocket with difficulty, and found that she now had a dozen taels of silver, enough to eat for a while.
"Boss, come to a bowl of noodles. Mu Wanling stood in the doorway, and shouted weakly to the people inside.
As soon as the guy heard Mu Wanling talking at the door, he hurriedly turned around and smiled: "Guest officer, please sit down inside the noodles." When he turned around and saw Mu Wanling's bloody appearance, he was startled, and said, "Child, I think it's more important for you to go to the doctor first than to eat noodles." ”
Mu Wanling shook her head and said, "Let me eat something first before I have the strength to go to the doctor." With that, she moved to a stool in the room with difficulty, and waited for the man to bring the noodles.
"Come on, your face. The man finished the noodles, picked up the noodles and put them in front of Mu Wanling, Mu Wanling was dizzy, trembling and picked up the chopsticks, leaned her head on the table and rested for a while, then she took a bite with all her strength, and after eating a bite, she lay her head on the table and chewed the noodles, thinking of Mu Tian and Gu Heng, and couldn't help crying again.
A bowl of noodles stopped eating, and it took a long time to eat half a bowl, and finally she put down her chopsticks and asked in a low voice, "How much?"
The man turned around and said, "Ten coppers." ”
Mu Wanling has a hint of relief in her heart, one or two silver can be exchanged for a hundred coppers, it seems that she doesn't have to worry about eating recently, but she doesn't know how much it costs to see a doctor, and I hope it's not too expensive.
"Here you go. Mu Wanling took out a tael of silver, and the man took it, and found her ninety coppers.
Just when Mu Wanling was paying the bill, several people eating noodles opposite the noodle restaurant at the same time glanced at each other, and when Mu Wanling asked where Dr. Ming was located and slowly walked out of the noodle restaurant, the three of them also settled the bill and quietly followed her not far behind.
The sky gradually turned blue, then darkened, and finally became pitch black, but fortunately, the night market in the city was also lively, and the bright lights swept away the invasion of the night, and Mu Wanling carefully searched the streets for the doctor's residence.
The three people who followed Mu Wanling followed for a while, and when Mu Wanling was tired of walking and rested against the wall, he suddenly stepped forward, took out his long sword, pointed at Mu Wanling and said with a cruel smile: "Hey, I see that although you are small, you seem to be quite rich, and you have no money to spend, so how about you borrow some, okay?"
Mu Wanling looked up and saw that the three of them had ruffian faces, and the sword in his hand was obviously not good, so he said, "I don't have any money to lend you." ”
"Ha, it seems that we can only find it ourselves, let's go up and rob her of her money. The man holding the sword gave an order, so the three of them gathered around, ready to grab it, the three eyes and the dragon beard horse saw that the three of them had bad intentions, so they snorted and ran into them, but the three eyes and the dragon beard horse are not good at attacking foreign beasts, and they are not a threat to the three at all, one drove away the two foreign beasts, and the other two easily snatched the silver two of the curtain Wanling, and the three of them laughed and left.
Mu Wanling couldn't help crying again, this money is the foundation of her life, now that she has no money, she can't even eat, and what's even more terrible is that the injuries on her body can't be healed, I'm afraid she will die in this Yehui City.
Mu Wanling cried on the street for a while, thinking about all the people she met after entering the city, her heart became more and more pessimistic and low, looking at the endless crowd on the street, her eyes began to become different from before, it was a kind of despair after disappointment, cold and lonely, as if a high wall had been erected for everyone.
It was late at night, and Mu Wanling ran out of money, so she naturally couldn't stay in a hotel, so she had to find a dilapidated house to live in, but the dilapidated house was already crowded with beggars.
Mu Wanling was weak, and just as she was about to step into the house, a group of beggars shouted together: "Get out, get out, we have this place!"
Mu Wanling's heart was already as cold as frost, her eyes swept the group of beggars like ice, and sat outside the room without saying a word, she endured the pain, leaned against the wall, and sat down slowly, while the three eyes and the dragon bearded horse stood next to her to accompany her.
The sky outside began to fog, Mu Wanling lay outside, the pain in her whole body made her unable to sleep for a long time, and the cold fog made her start a high fever, her whole body felt cold, and she couldn't stop shivering.
After staying up all night, Mu Wanling got up early, ready to find something to eat. Last night's high fever had not subsided, and Mu Wanling was exhausted, half of her body was lying on the back of the dragon beard horse and moving with difficulty step by step.
Yehui City is full of stalls selling breakfast at the moment, Mu Wanling walked for a while, and a burst of the fragrance of wheat came into Mu Wanling's nose, Mu Wanling walked towards the fragrance, only to see a stall selling bread in front of her, and the stall was steaming white from time to time, as if seducing her.
Mu Wanling had never had the experience of begging others for bread before, and she was embarrassed to step forward at this time, but the hunger in her stomach made her miserable, and she hesitated in front of the stall for a while, and then stepped forward cheekily and whispered: "You... Can you give me something to eat?"
The stall owner was an ordinary man, he heard Mu Wanling's voice, looked up, and returned: "Want to eat? There are still a lot of people over there who want to eat, which turn will get you?" He casually pointed to a corner of the street, Mu Wanling looked back, only to see several beggars in tattered clothes squatting in the corner, staring at the stall with blank eyes.
Mu Wanling's eyes dimmed, and she said, "My money was robbed, I'm not a beggar." ”
"That's not the same as a beggar, I have a small business, I can't afford to eat and drink for nothing, you go quickly, I have to do a business." The man waved his hand and drove away the curtain.
Mu Wanling hung her head and her heart became even colder, and then she cheekily found a few breakfast stalls, but in the end she didn't ask for anything, she lowered her head and covered her stomach, listening to the gradually noisy crowd on the street, wandering aimlessly.
Before they knew it, it was almost noon, and a large group of beggars were noisily huddled together in one direction, and the curtain was like a ghost walking after them.
"How about it, this time I ate as much as the last time, right?" one beggar shouted, and the other replied, "There must be more, when will Xie Fu be less?"
As soon as Mu Wanling heard that there was food, her steps quickened, but because of the pain, there was always a distance from those beggars, and the beggars stopped in front of a gorgeous building, stretching their necks one by one, waiting for Xie Fu's almsgiving.
Mu Wanling finally walked behind the beggars, she walked forward and squeezed to the front, but was pushed back desperately by the beggars, and her injured body could not squeeze them.
"Come out, come out!" With the shouts of the beggars in front, all the beggars suddenly boiled, and one by one they scrambled forward with broken bowls, and the one who came out to give alms was a young woman with a disgusted face, she held steamed buns and other food in her hands and sprinkled it to the crowd like feeding animals, the beggars grabbed it, and Mu Wanling's side was also thrown into the food.
Mu Wanling's eyes lit up, she reached out and grabbed the steamed buns, those beggars turned around and competed with Mu Wanling, a pair of dirty hands pinched the steamed buns in her hands into several halves and snatched them, Mu Wanling was so anxious that she didn't care about the black things on the steamed buns, and stuffed them into her mouth.
The woman threw a batch, turned around and took some food and started throwing it again, Mu Wanling grabbed a few steamed buns and pastries, and hurriedly hid them in her arms to prepare to leave, but the beggars around her saw that she was a child and was easy to bully, so they grabbed her and snatched the food in her arms, and Mu Wanling died before leaving a steamed bun.
Fortunately, Three-Eyes and Dragonbeard Horse eat grass, so Mu Wanling doesn't have to worry about their food, this steamed bun may be Mu Wanling's dinner today.
"I didn't expect to grab food with a bunch of beggars. Mu Wanling found a dilapidated house again, sat in the house and cried silently, all the people here had not helped her, but there were many people who bullied her, which made her originally happy heart darken, she chewed steamed buns while thinking about tomorrow, and her face became a little ruthless.
"Since it's all robbing, when my injuries are better, I see which of you dares to rob my things. After eating the steamed buns, Mu Wanling lay on a pile of dry grass and muttered to herself, the moonlight entered the room, and the bright and bright Mu Wanling who was originally feverish couldn't sleep, so she opened her eyes and recalled the past, at this moment, there was a sudden burst of small movements outside the house, Mu Wanling immediately became alert, leaned against the wall and looked out, only to see a few figures sneakily touching her, she took a closer look, it turned out to be the three people who had robbed their money before, but this time they were followed by several people, I don't know what to do.
"What do you want to do?" Mu Wanling was angry in her heart, did the three of them still want to beat themselves up if they robbed their money, she hurriedly woke up the two strange beasts, rode on the dragon bearded horse, broke through the wooden door and galloped away.
"Quick, it's that dragon beard horse, grab it, don't let it run away!" It turned out that a few people were here to catch the dragon beard horse, this dragon beard horse is a good walking tool, the three of them robbed the money, and felt that it was far from enough, so they followed Mu Wanling, and prepared to secretly catch the dragon beard horse at night while they were sleeping, but at this moment the plan has been exposed, and those people don't care about stealing or not, and directly chase and rob it.
But the speed of the dragon bearded horse was so fast that they could catch up, and they were thrown far away in a moment.
