Chapter 142: The Ghost (2)
Ah Yu looked around, and the darkness of the woods was in sight, and she grabbed the corner of the man's clothes in fear, "I'm afraid of ......"
"Don't be afraid, I'll be back soon." He touched the top of her head soothingly, and said softly: "The person they want to arrest is not you, you hide here, don't go out, I promise you, but in a little time to stick incense, I will come back to pick you up."
Ah Yu was still hesitating, but Zhang Sheng had already said: "They will catch up soon, there is no time, Ah Yu, you are also a woman, you should be able to understand what kind of mood it will be if you are forced to marry someone who does not want to marry, right?"
Hearing this, Ah Yu slowly let go of the hand holding the corner of his clothes, she looked at the woman with a sad face, and whispered: "Don't be sad, after the prime minister sends you out, you will definitely be able to find someone you like to marry."
Cui Xiuxiu's expression was stunned, and after a while, she stiffened out a smile.
I couldn't tell what emotions were in my heart, Zhang Sheng took Ah Yan's hand and let her squat in a bush, "Ah Wei is obedient, you hide here and don't go out, wait for me to come back." ”
When he was about to turn around, he was grabbed by the corner of his clothes.
Auntie's moonlit eyes were beautiful and clean, "You'll come and pick me up, right?" ”
He bumped into her ignorant and innocent, unworldly gaze, and in this night, her figure was so small and fragile.
After Zhang Sheng paused, he took off his coat and draped it on her, his voice softened a lot, "I'll come back to you." ”
"Auntie, wait for me."
These were the last words he left, and in the night, he took the girl in the red wedding dress, and soon disappeared.
Duan Feixue said loudly: "I guess she didn't wait for someone to pick her up."
Qin Susu said: "I think Zhang Sheng has also considered it, if Miss Cui is caught by the villagers, it will be nine deaths, but this girl is from another village and is still from an official family, even if she is caught......"
Luo Huai: "Shut up!"
Qin Susu, who was suddenly yelled, couldn't help but shake his body.
Wen Ran looked at Luo Huai, whose face was cold, and she had doubts.
Who doesn't know that Luo Huai has always been a big man, even if he encounters something bad, he will never care about it?
He's throwing a tantrum, and that's the first time he's ever had a tantrum.
Luo Huai also seemed to realize that his emotions were wrong, but he unexpectedly did not have the idea of apologizing, but focused all his attention on the girl who was squatting among the bushes.
Shen Bei whispered in Wen Ran's ear: "He likes her."
Wen Ran looked at Shen Bei with shocked eyes, when did he become so sensitive?
There was a little pride in his eyes, and a sense of pride that he was the smartest person.
The cold wind at night is like a ghost crying wolf.
Every time she heard a gust of wind, the little girl huddled in the low wood had to look up in panic.
She is the daughter of a pampered prime minister, how could she ever stay alone in the wilderness?
Even the occasional chirping of insects, the occasional leaping frog, would startle her.
In the middle of the night, the moon was obscured by dark clouds, and even the light was gone.
She lowered her head, covered her face with her hands, and made a low counting sound, "One, two, three......"
It seemed that this was the only way she could not be frightened by the whimpering wind.
Rao is Qin Susu used to support the love between Zhang Sheng and Cui Xiuxiu, and now she feels very pitiful when she sees this girl like this.
It was dawn and dark, and the girl no longer knew which number she had counted, nor how many rounds she had recounted.
She sat on the ground hungry and thirsty, tired, but she firmly remembered that she had to wait here for someone to pick her up, and from time to time she looked up at the direction where the man had disappeared, and again and again she lowered her head in frustration because she didn't see a figure.
It's another night.
The girl covered her head with the clothes she was wearing, and deceived herself like a bell, the night was not terrible.
Duan Feixue felt pity, "Is she going to keep waiting?" ”
Wen Ran looked to the other side, "Someone is coming." ”
On that path, the cries of the little girls could be heard.
The oldest of the girls was no more than eleven or twelve years old, and the youngest was no more than four or five years old, and they were all dressed in red and dressed like lucky dolls, but they were all sobbing in low voices.
They were surrounded by the villagers and forced to move up the mountain.
Someone worriedly said, "Can you send these girls up the mountain?"
"What's the solution? Who let the Cui family run away? Someone said angrily: "The village chief said that he missed the auspicious time, and now there is no girl of the right age and has not yet married, so I can only let these little girls try."
"It's really unlucky, why did that Cui Xiuxiu run away! Alas, it's just pity for my second ......"
"What are you sighing about? The village chief has also sent his little girl over, this is all for our village, it is an honor to be chosen by the water god! ”
"Yes, it's an honor!"
……
Even Wen Ran kept telling herself that all this was a phantom, and when she saw the two familiar faces in the queue of the tied girls, she couldn't help but clench her fists.
Hidden among the low trees, the timid girl also heard the voices of the villagers, and she peeked out of her clothes and quietly stared at the procession slowly ascending the mountain in the distance.
It wasn't long before the cloak fell to the ground and she stood up.
Luo Huai seemed to realize what she was going to do, and he stretched out his hand, "Don't go!" ”
His hand ran through her body, grabbing nothing.
Looking at the back of the girl following up, Luo Huai was at a loss.
Shen Bei whispered in Wen Ran's ear again: "I just said, he likes her."
Wen Ran glanced at him.
Can he take a look at the atmosphere!?
The picture changes abruptly, this time, on the top of a mountain.
Someone shouted, "They're gone!"
They were all little girls with short legs, and even if someone untied them while others were worshipping, they couldn't run far.
Ah Yu picked up a girl who had fallen, the girl's foot was injured and bleeding, she cried, "My foot hurts......"
"I can't run......"
"What should I do?"
"Big sister, I don't want to die......"
……
The children's cries rang out one after another.
Dirty skirt corners, messy sideburns, embarrassed aunt gently coaxed, "Don't cry, don't cry, you guys hide here, I'll lure them away." ”
She hid behind a hill with her children.
As she was leaving, a child named Xiao Ni grabbed her hand and said in fear, "Big sister, if you get caught...... What to do? ”
Ah Yu curled the corners of her lips, "It's okay, someone will come to save me." ”
She said it was okay, but her hands were trembling.
Luo Huai lowered his eyes.
Ah Yu left in the opposite direction, and the back that melted into the night and gradually disappeared was like a fog that could not be grasped.
Wen Ran noticed that something was wrong with Luo Huai.
Shen Bei lowered his voice again and whispered to her, "He must be crying." ”
There were no tears on Luo Huai's face.
It was his heart that was crying.
Shen Bei was still whispering: "He's such an adult, and he still cries his nose, and he doesn't know how to be ashamed."
Wen Ran glared.
He laughed at fifty steps and laughed at a hundred steps, can't he say less!?
