A Thousand Miles Without Leaving Behind Chapter 8 Sheepskin Map
There was nothing to say all the way, Shen Xingliu walked in front, and Tang Xuanxuan followed behind.
Shen Xingliu originally thought that she would go back after a while, but seeing that she was about to walk out of the mountains and forests, she couldn't help but feel a little anxious, so she quickened her pace.
What a piece of wood! I'm really angry, Tang Xuanxuan was angry, and she didn't pay attention to her feet.
"Oops!"
But Shen Xingliu was startled and turned around to take a look.
Tang Xuanxuan fell to the ground, rubbing his ankles with his little hands, he hurriedly ran over to check, and wanted to cover up? was snatched away by Shen Xingliu.
Shen Xingliu frowned, and gently opened her socks to check, it was already green.
"It looks like it's on the foot, and the soles of the feet are blistered." Shen Xingliu put Tang Xuanxuan's feet down and said, "You can't go anymore, or I'll send you back." ”
"No, I am," Tang Xuanxuan's eyes rolled and she said, "We finally came here." If you go back, it will definitely delay time, so the sect will be in danger, so it's better for you to carry me. ”
"Me." Shen Xingliu blinked, is this appropriate, I used to hear people in the village say that they carry their daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Tang Xuanxuan saw that Shen Xingliu refused, and pretended to cry: "Pity me like a flower, what if I am taken away by wolves in this wilderness." ”
Shen Xingliu said helplessly: "Okay, don't regret it, come up." ”
After speaking, he turned his back to Tang Xuanxuan.
Tang Xuanxuan smiled and leaned on his back, Shen Xingliu put the knife under her buttocks, which could make her more comfortable.
carried Tang Xuanxuan out of the forest, came to the avenue, and walked to the nearest city.
"I'll ask you a question." Shen Xingliu said to the dishonest Tang Xuanxuan.
Tang Xuanxuan was shaking her little feet, and her shoes were almost thrown off just now, so she said, "Ask." ”
"Why do you say I'm your first patient?" Shen Xingliu was puzzled.
"This, that," Tang Xuanxuan was asked about the sore spot, twisted a little, and said, "You are not allowed to laugh when you say it." ”
"Don't laugh."
"You swear, you're a puppy."
"Okay, I swear."
"Okay, let me tell you, in fact, once I used itchy powder as a medicinal powder and sprinkled it on Senior Brother Bai." Tang Xuanxuan said hesitantly.
Shen Xingliu's face was stunned for a moment, and then he "Wang" twice and laughed out loud.
Tang Xuanxuan's face turned red with a "bang", and she made a fuss: "Ah! Yes! Yes! You liar, I'll bite you to death. ”
After speaking, he bit Shen Xingliu's shoulder for a long time, until he couldn't hear laughter.
Tang Xuanxuan blushed and let go of her mouth, and asked weakly, "Are you angry?" ”
"Nope." Shen Xingliu felt a pain in his shoulder, realized that the joke was over, and said, "What about you, have you lost your breath?" ”
"Humph! No," Tang Xuanxuan heard that he was not angry, and said stiffly: "Unless, you sing to me." ”
Shen Xingliu was big for a while, and said, "But I can't sing." ”
Tang Xuanxuan said unrelentingly: "No, you have to sing, you have to sing!" ”
"Well, okay then, I'll sing you a children's song, it's my mother who sang it, and then my Grandpa Shen sang it to me." Shen Xingliu's thoughts couldn't help but go back to that unforgettable time.
"Hmm." Tang Xuanxuan said softly.
"Twinkle and twinkle, the sky is full of little stars..."
After singing a song, Tang Xuanxuan's eyes moistened unconsciously, and she said softly: "Your mother should love you very much." ”
"Of course," Shen Xingliu saw the city not far away, and said, "Look, we're almost there." ”
Tang Xuanxuan lay quietly on her back, Shen Xingliu looked at the gate of the city where people came and went, I really don't know how many people will survive after this big battle?
In the city, I found an inn, put Tang Xuanxuan in the guest room, and went out to investigate the location of Nan Yujun after a few sentences.
Tang Xuanxuan silently watched him go out of the room, and didn't come back until it was almost dark.
"Damn! I'm going to help you, but you don't believe me. Shen Xingliu, who returned to the guest room, scolded angrily.
Tang Xuanxuan's feet have recovered, after all, she is a doctor, although she often forgets this identity!
"It's fine. We're trying to figure out how we can trust them. Tang Xuanxuan comforted.
Shen Xingliu's anger gradually calmed down, and said, "Are you hungry?" I'll treat you to dinner. ”
"Yes!"
Tang Xuanxuan and Shen Xingliu went down to the first floor together, he didn't have much money, but in order to make up for her, he still gritted his teeth and bought a roast chicken.
When I saw Tang Xuanxuan who roasted chicken, her eyes turned into a little heart, I don't know why, his things are always so delicious.
Shen Xingliu took a steamed bun, and suddenly Tang Xuanxuan tore off a chicken leg for him.
Two people, three steamed buns, and a chicken is their meal.
After eating, the two sat in place and drank tea, when five men came in.
Shen Xingliu saw the calluses on the other party's hands, slowly squinted his eyes, and Tang Xuanxuan followed his gaze.
One of the men was biting the roast chicken, making a look at the person next to him.
When he received the look, he went straight to the two of them.
"Yo, what a good knife." The man picked up the knife that Shen Xingliu had put aside and pulled it out and sighed.
Shen Xingliu said lightly: "If I were you, I would put it down." ”
The man couldn't help but be angry: "Boy. You're a bit brave. ”
After speaking, he pulled out the knife and put it on Shen Xingliu's neck, so frightened that the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper hid under the counter.
Shen Xingliu gently pinched the blade of the knife, and when the man saw that he was not scared, he wanted to make some moves, but he couldn't pull out the knife.
With a twist of his wrist, he sent the blade to the man's neck.
"A good man spares his life, a good man spares his life!" The man saw the blade pressed against his neck and begged for mercy, "Just kidding." Don't take it seriously. ”
The man who finished gnawing the roast chicken threw the chicken bones on the table, wiped his clothes with his oil paws, and walked to the front.
"This brother, give a certain thin noodle and release my brother." Dong Chao arched his hand and apologized.
Shen Xingliu looked at the man holding his knife and said lightly: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." ”
The man hurriedly let go, slipped back to his place, and was teased by the trio.
"It's not convenient to talk here, I don't know if I can move." Dong Chao said in Shen Xingliu's ear.
Putting away the knife and pulling Tang Xuanxuan to the guest room, Dong Chao gestured to the four people and went upstairs together, but the four of them did not enter the door but guarded the door.
Of the three people who entered the room, Tang Xuanxuan sat on the bed and quietly watched the two talk.
"Under Dong Chao." Dong Chao hugged his fists
"Shen Xingliu."
Dong Chao nodded and said, "I think my brother is good, my brother has a big deal here, I don't know if you are interested." ”
After speaking, she glanced at Tang Xuanxuan and seemed to feel that she couldn't let her know about it.
"But it doesn't hurt to say it, this is Uchiko."
Tang Xuanxuan turned her little face, when she didn't hear it, but her red ears betrayed her.
"Okay then." Dong Chao took out a sheepskin map from his arms and said, "I have no other skills, I will only be overwhelmed, don't misunderstand that I don't want you to steal, but to help." ”
"Interesting, how can I help?" Shen Xingliu said with a smile.
Dong Chao covered his mouth with his hand and said, "Help the Dayu royal family find a piece of lost ancient jade." ”
Shen Xingliu was a little skeptical: "How can I trust you?" ”
Dong Chao was a little embarrassed, and immediately took out the token, which was engraved with the words "Wu Chang".
"Well, I believe it." Shen Xingliu didn't know why he was looking for a piece of jade, and he had to waste so much thought and throw the token to Dong Chao.
Dong Chao took it, blew it a little distressedly, and said, "Light, what if it breaks." ”
"You kicked me out and dare to complain?" Shen Xingliu naturally knew the reason, and he was used.
Dong Chao said with a smile: "Little brother, why do you hold such a grudge, I will make amends to you on behalf of the chief." ”
"Tell me what's going on with this sheepskin map." He tapped the parchment map on the table and asked.
Dong Chao sat down and said to Shen Xingliu: "This is left by the general of the previous dynasty, more than a hundred years ago. Legend has it that the location on the map is a military city, and Gu Yu is among them, and I will sponsor you to the commander when you retrieve Gu Yu. ”
"Alright then, without further ado, go and get back quickly." Shen Xingliu pondered for a moment, Tang Xuanxuan got up silently, and he said, "You stay here." ”
"Don't!" Tang Xuanxuan said stubbornly.
Shen Xingliu pressed Tang Xuanxuan to sit on the bed and persuaded: "I'm not going to the temple fair this time, it's very likely that there will be danger, you and I will only distract me." ”
Tang Xuanxuan bit her lip and didn't listen to him.
Dong Chao looked at the little couple in front of him, remembered himself and said, "Yes, brother and sister, you will listen to Brother Shen this time, you can rest assured that even if I die, I will keep him safe." ”
Kindly persuaded each other, and ushered in the "hostile" eyes of the two. Spread your hands in a playful manner, put away the sheepskin map and go out, and inform you of the departure time.
When the four of them saw Dong Chao go out of the room, they immediately inquired about the situation, and the latter nodded and signaled that it was done.
"Crackling!"
In the room behind him, there was a sound of falling things, and Dong Chao looked at the closed door with some pity.
In fact, what he didn't know was that all these words just now were heard by the partition wall of the next room.
Shen Xingliu heard the sound of a heartbeat next door, and secretly said that it was not good, and threw out a cup and smashed it on the wall, the man heard it clearly, and suddenly fell to the ground with his ears covered.
He took out a long knife and slashed through the wooden wall, and saw another black shadow jump out of the window and escape, and disappeared into the night.
Seeing that the man in black who fell to the ground was silent, he uncovered the face towel and turned out to be the shopkeeper, and black blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
Dong Chao heard the sound of the wall shattering, and suddenly lost color and broke. When I came to the room, I saw Tang Xuanxuan, who was also frightened.
Shen Xingliu returned to his room to clarify the situation, and the seven of them immediately left and headed to the south of the city, and they had to find Gu Yu before the Beirou spies.
