Volume 1 Youth Travel, Far Away Chapter 27 It's rare to have nothing to do and be idle for half a day
The sun is high, and noon has arrived.
The woman in blue and the boy in the short shirt had been resting in the forest for about an hour, and then a caravan man trotted to the foot of the mountain to summon the two of them down the mountain to meet the caravan, and I don't know what the caravan steward was doing in the more than an hour.
Yue Hanzhi put on his hat, held a thin sword in his right hand and was ready to get up and move forward, and it was a little inconvenient to move. Lin Manliu was about to step forward and help him and said, "Moon girl, I'll help you down the mountain...".
"No, I'll do it myself," came out of the somewhat stubborn voice of the woman in blue.
Unexpectedly, she didn't take a few steps, maybe because the hillside was too steep or because she was wearing a hat that affected her vision, and the young man in the short shirt hurriedly caught her who was about to fall. In the end, Lin Manliu had to help him down the mountain to join the caravan.
The caravan steward saw the two of them coming out of the cherry blossom forest, and hurriedly greeted them and said with a concerned face: "Manliu little brother, this is the boundary of Yangfeng Valley, it is comfortable to rest, if you want to rest for a while, I will let everyone stay for a while longer."
Didn't you just say not to stay for a long time before you were in danger, why do you have to arrange rest now, and you can't sigh whether this steward is big-hearted or too sure of his escort ability, so courteous.
"It's a last resort to rest in the realm of these Jianghu sects, so let's leave quickly, by the way, this woman who helped us will walk with us for a while, and the steward doesn't know if it's convenient," Lin Manliu first rejected his idea and then asked.
"Naturally, there is no problem, the heroine is kind to our caravan," said the caravan steward waving his hand.
"Thank you," the woman in blue nodded.
"Thank you, steward," the short-shirted boy replied.
"That's right... The sixth little brother is not going to wash up and change his clothes by the way" The steward will arrange and discuss the matter, and then he asked with a concerned face, and the short-shirted young man realized that his blood-stained clothes and his face was not very well cleaned just now, so he asked for a water bladder and wrapped himself to wash and change his clothes after going to the woods.
I don't know when it began, the caravan journey and rest arrangements, the caravan steward gradually asked them about the child they didn't like at the beginning, and the caravan men were also convinced. The woman in blue only felt strange when she saw this scene, could it be that this person was the young owner of this caravan or what his identity was, but whether it was the steward or the other escorts of the caravoy, they all called him a full six little brothers, and there seemed to be no distinction between superiors and subordinates.
The woman in blue wearing a hat was helped by the young man in the short shirt to sit in the carriage he was sitting in, the young man in the short shirt walked beside the carriage and looked ahead, the woman on the edge of the car looked at the young man in front of her, the age should be younger than herself Fourteen or fifteen years old, so it is not easy to go out and practice, and comb her hair in a ponytail at the back of her head, and some sideburns and bangs that cannot be tied up are scattered on both sides of her forehead, and she changed her clothes but the style is still short shirt and cloth boots from before, but it has been changed from gray to black, In his own words, it is dirt-resistant. Because of the black body of his body, the strip of black cloth he was carrying on his back and the mountain walk on his waist seemed to blend in with him.
"Lin Manliu, where are you going, I will go to Jiangning through Yuezhou, but I can still stop by the way" Yue Hanzhi looked at the young man in front of him by the carriage door.
"By the way, we are going to Hangzhou, we should go to Hangzhou to deliver the goods after passing the Yellow Mountain, and it should take half a decade by then, and the girl in the moon will recuperate with peace of mind" The short-shirted boy was obviously surprised by such a coincidence, and hurriedly replied that the speed of speech was a little faster.
"That's fine," said the woman in blue, who seemed to be a little relieved, and rested against the carriage door, not worried about what the short-shirted boy or anyone in the caravan wanted to think of her.
Everyone was still fast, and after a while, they were far away from the realm of Yangfeng Valley, and since they met those mountain and wild thieves, they had a smooth journey, and they didn't disturb those Yangfeng Valley disciples here, so that Lin Manliu couldn't help but sigh a little, finally didn't he meet someone somewhere, right? It seems that the people of Yangfeng Valley have already met the strange woman they saw in that rape field in advance.
On the road, there was not a caravan man to talk to the short-shirted boy, he also replied one by one, and these men who were older than him could talk and laugh, I don't know if it was because he was from a fellow villager or he was really talkative, although their jokes with each other sometimes brought some meaty words, but into the ears of the woman in blue who was leaning on the carriage door, she felt that it was also a kind of comfort, and she felt more at ease than her previous travel experience.
It was not until the evening that the caravan found a village according to the map, and prepared to rest here tonight, and handed over the caravan horses to the shopkeeper at the post station at the entrance of the village to feed, and everyone entered the post house to prepare for dinner.
In order to prevent himself from being noticed by the people in the village and causing a bad influence by bandaging his wounds, Yue Hanzhi borrowed a black cloth robe to cover his figure. The men of the caravan talked and laughed at the dinner table, talking about the deeds of resisting the thieves during the day, and the man who did not dare to rise up to resist was punished by everyone for drinking and making amends, as if he used this way to laugh at the enmity and hatred.
"Ruan Laosan, how can you be like a coward during the day, our six little brothers are all, why are you cowering in the back, hahahahaha" A bearded man patted the cowardly man and said.
"I... Isn't it just that my feet are numb, otherwise I would also like to help the six little brothers" Ruan Laosan held back for a long time.
"Come on, come and eat and drink, if you don't give your brothers a glass back today, you won't be spanked for a while."
"Yes, yes, give me a drink! Don't dare to lift a knife and drink."
......
"You all be quiet, look at your little bit of interest, who is not beaten and pee, and finally watched the six little brothers kill the Quartet before they started fighting" The caravan steward reprimanded at the wine table on the side, and as soon as he finished speaking, he looked at Lin Manliu and Yue Hanzhi who were sitting at the table with him.
The short-shirted young man had no choice but to nod to him, and continued to eat, but Yue Hanzhi, who was wrapped in a black robe, didn't eat much, just hid his face and drank some tea and continued to be silent. When the short-shirted boy ate a bowl of rice and was about to serve a bowl, the woman in the hat coughed, and when she heard the news, she looked at her, only to see that the hat was biased and pointed to the guest room of the post house.
Lin Manliu could only put down the dishes and chopsticks with an aggrieved face, bid farewell to the caravan steward, and helped the hooded woman to the guest room where he was resting. I don't know if the caravan steward will be wrong or there are too few guest rooms in the post station, although the arrangement on the dinner table just now is to set aside a separate room for him not to live with the men, but it is not specified where Yue Hanzhi is resting, so he has to leave his room to Yue Hanzhi, and plans to continue to find the caravan men at night to make do casually.
"Girl Yue, you rest here, I'll go to live with the uncles at night, I'll go downstairs and talk to them later," the short-shirted young man helped the hooded woman to the table and chair, ready to go downstairs.
"The room is yours here, and you can come back and rest by yourself in the evening...... It's mine, you can figure it out yourself," the voice under the hood said with some hesitation.
"Ah......" Lin Manliu was a little flustered.
Yue Hanzhi took off her hat as she spoke, and saw her face with eyebrows like distant daisy and eyes like stars. She looked at the young man in front of her and frowned and said, "I don't think so, what are you pretentious about here, by the way, I was really uncomfortable wearing this robe just now, I'm not very good at eating vegetables, do you have some dry food with you, and I'll give me some later."
The short-shirted boy had to agree to come down, so he went downstairs to the carriage to get his package, and by the way asked the store for a pot of tea, and went upstairs.
Since the attack in the mountains, there has been no danger, as if he had stolen half a day of leisure from the hardships of the eastward journey.
