The previous two trips were accompanied by someone, but this time it was a man in a short shirt. The road was naturally much monotonous, but the thin yellow horse under the seat seemed to understand the boredom of walking alone, and would always rub towards the young man when he was resting, which made Lin Manliu feel that there was still some joy on the road.

During the day, the horse galloped through the mountains and forests, and when the yellow horse was a little tired, he let it stop and stop, and Lin Manliu began to practice the sword moves he had learned. After nightfall, he found a secluded place, settled the yellow horse, and the boy began to close his eyes and rest, and the days of hurrying were repeated.

Every day is to hurry, practice swords, rest... The three things kept repeating, and without the presence of others, Lin Manliu would not have to go close to some villages or towns to buy items, let alone enter them to rest.

The time came on May 18, and it seemed that the rainy season was not yet coming, and there was no sign of rain for the past few days.

I don't know where the yellow warblers flew in the mountains and forests, stopped on the trees to rest, and whispered to the partners beside them, and suddenly under the trees behind them, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves, and the yellow warblers hurriedly flew into the air, away from the trunk of the tree where they were resting just now, trying to avoid the uninvited guests who suddenly came out of the tree, and the birdsong gradually increased after hovering in the air, as if to remind the companions of the strange things that happened below.

A figure flew out from under the tree, a young man in a short shirt was holding the reins, driving a thin yellow horse, coming out of the forest, one person and one horse looked a little dirty, covered with leaves and dust, it was not Lin Manliu and his little yellow horse who were traveling alone.

Returning from the mountain road when he came, Lin Manliu had been walking for five days, and the young man saw that he was about to reach the boundary of Rongcheng, and he was sure that as long as he was hurrying up, he would be able to enter Rongcheng before sunset, and the young man in the short shirt looked through the gap between the dense forests and looked at the foot of the continuous mountain range, where there was the appearance of a square city.

As the boy moved forward, he began to see the appearance of some villages, perhaps because it was still morning, and there were several families in the distant villages that had already risen to smoke.

Seeing the smoke rising in the distance, Lin Manliu's stomach finally began to ring uncontrollably, and he began to rub his abdomen in embarrassment, and then stopped his horse.

"Little Yellow... Are you a little hungry these days? Otherwise, let's eat some good ones, the fruit of the other day is not fully ripe, it is too difficult to eat..."Lin Manliu said as he stroked the neck of the thin yellow horse.

Little Yellow snorted, then opened the horse's mouth and collided with its teeth a few times, and then began to shake its horse's head.

"Xiao Huang, you are so good!" How did the young man know what the horse meant, no matter what the yellow horse's reaction was, Lin Manliu decided not to treat himself badly anymore, immediately turned over and dismounted to unload the burden on the horse's back, took out a piece of pancake, broke it in half, put the larger one back, took the smaller one in his hand and began to tear it into small pieces, and put it in his mouth.

"I really haven't eaten pasta for a few days, Xiao Huang, you can also taste it" After Lin Manliu ate a few pieces, he threw a piece of pancake crumbs to Xiao Huang beside him, and the thin yellow horse lowered his head and bit the pancake at his feet into his mouth, and began to chew it carefully, followed by Lin Manliu ate some, and threw some to the yellow horse next to him, and the two ate this half of the pancake together.

It didn't take long for the half of the pancake to be eaten, Lin Manliu ate and wiped the crumb leaves in his hands, and when he got up, he didn't forget to wipe his shirt on it, and then began to touch his hands on his stomach with satisfaction, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

"Little Yellow go! Continue to hurry, as long as you can reach Fengcheng today, you can go to General Li Yanhe" Lin Manliu said with a smile, and after finishing speaking, he turned over and got on his horse, ready to continue his journey.

The yellow horse neighed, looked up, and seemed to tell the young man on horseback that he was ready, and began their journey again.

The sun in the sky traveled east to west, and gradually began to hang high in the sky, looking at the position of the sun, and it should be noon in another hour or two, and the young man also rode to the village where he could just see the smoke of cooking.

When I came to the field, I saw a group of lotus leaves, full of green, today I went to the country road, in those endless lotus leaves have begun to have a little powder, one after another lotus buds are hidden under the lotus leaves, presumably when I return home in the future, I can see the field full of lotus flowers.

As he passed through the village, there were gradually some pedestrians on the road, so the boy in the short shirt stopped galloping, and began to lead his horse on foot, and after passing through the lotus bay, he got back on the horse and hurried away.

Lin Manliu clenched the reins, Xiao Huang followed the young man, and from time to time there would be some women picking lotus leaves on the edge of the field, seeing the young man with the sword and leading the horse, he couldn't help but start bowing to Lin Manliu, and the young man in the short shirt also hurriedly returned the salute, for fear of receiving this big gift.

"Hey, the stinky boy in front, what about you, you are the appearance of a hero who has learned that family, get some swords and bring them to your body, I really think that I am a ranger in the sword rivers and lakes" Suddenly a middle-aged man's voice with some sarcasm came from behind him.

Lin Manliu paused for a moment, then turned to look at the field behind him.

It was a middle-aged man with a naked upper body, who was fanning himself with a somewhat yellow lotus leaf, and when he saw the young man turn to look at him, his eyes began to widen, and he actually glared at Lin Manliu.

"What's the matter, if you're not convinced, if you're not convinced, compare with grandpa and me, if you stinky boy lose, how about losing your utensils and horses to me, our little hero" The rogue voice continued to come out of the middle-aged man's mouth.

"I'm really sorry, the kid still needs to hurry, I don't have time to stay again, I hope my uncle will forgive me" Lin Manliu said with his hand, and then turned around and prepared to leave.

"Hey! It's shameless to give your face, right" The middle-aged man's voice began to be a little angry, and seeing that Lin Manliu didn't want to take care of himself, the man casually picked up a stone beside him and threw it at the short-shirted boy.

Lin Manliu, who sensed the man's movements, immediately pulled out the mountain field line on his waist, and just turned slightly to the side and knocked the stone to the ground.

Pedestrians on the road suddenly saw the blades unsheathed, and some people shouted in panic, which caused the surrounding people to scatter, some people jumped into the field quickly, some hurriedly squatted down with their heads in their hands, and some people ran forward quickly, looking back at the short-shirted young man who was leading the horse and stopping from time to time.

The blade of Yamanoyuki's sword shone a little in the sunlight, and the bright light pierced into the middle-aged man's eyes, and he began to feel a little frightened, and the hand that had just thrown the stone began to tremble in disobedience.

"Hero... I'm sorry, hero, I didn't mean to..."The man saw that the young man had a real blade in his hand, and hurriedly said out loud.

But the thoughts in Lin Manliu's heart were completely absent from the man's words, he was a little annoyed by his behavior just now, originally the stone could be stopped with his bare hands, and now he directly pulled out the mountain field line to resist, causing the surrounding pedestrians to be uneasy, and the short-shirted young man hurriedly put his sword into the sheath.

began to apologize to the pedestrians around him, "Folks, I'm really sorry, the kid didn't deliberately draw his sword out of the sheath, which caused everyone's uneasiness, and the kid is here to make amends to you," the boy bowed down and said.

The pedestrians around saw the young man in the country road, behaving so abnormally, and they were also stunned, no one dared to step forward to respond to the strange young man's apology, the middle-aged man saw this scene in his eyes, and hurriedly walked to Lin Manliu, when the two were still seven or eight steps away, the man stopped and then squeezed out an extremely ugly smile.

"I'm really embarrassed just now, I bumped into this young man, the young man is not strange, Mo is strange," the man said with a smile.

"It's okay, I also need to think about it, if it's okay, I won't bother you anymore, I'm really sorry" Lin Manliu still looked at the man who had spoken disrespectfully to him before, bowed and then turned around and prepared to leave quickly, this place has already caused bad thoughts, it is better to leave as soon as possible.

"Who bullied people in my Lotus Bay and wanted to leave?" But before Lin Manliu could walk far, a question came from the field on the west side.

The young man in the short shirt subconsciously, squinted his eyes, and found that there was a small pavilion in the middle of the field, and he didn't even notice the pavilion surrounded by lotus leaves when he was in a hurry.

In the middle of the gazebo sat a man dressed as a farmer, but there was not a trace of dirt and dust on his body, and even in the gazebo there was no trace of dust, which was completely different from the busy pedestrians on the road, and the farmers picking lotus leaves and taking care of the buds in the fields.

When Lin Manliu was obliquely looking, the people in the pavilion saw that the young man in the short shirt did not stop, so he spoke again, with some subtle anger in his words: "Isn't it because of his young age that he can roam around the rivers and lakes at will, is it really a child playing and playing?" ”。

"The kid is indeed traveling far for the first time, I don't know what advice the predecessors have" Lin Manliu stopped at this time, and turned to face the farmer in the pavilion.

When the farmer saw the boy turn to face him, he himself got up and looked at the boy in the short shirt, and changed his current angry countenance, and his face began to be kind.

"When I saw Xiaoyou, I just took out the sword quickly and quickly, so I wanted to get acquainted with Xiaoyou, I don't know if it would be convenient" The farmer learned from Lin Manliu just now, and bowed his hand far away from the lotus leaf field.

"It's a good thing to be able to meet friends when you're away from home, and the kid thanked his seniors for their kindness" Lin Manliu could only helplessly flatter, this scene seemed to be a bit familiar, when he traveled with the caravan, he also met Huanyunxia in the rape flower field, and the way he spoke was the same as this crop man.

The young man in the short shirt secretly thought to himself, could it be that these Jianghu guests all talk like this?
