Chapter 4 The White Clothed Meng

Gu Lingling wiped her tears and nodded. The two children were just relieved to escape the pursuit when a faint voice was heard in the distance.

Ye Suiyun's heart tightened, and he thought: "These people are chasing so closely, it seems that they didn't find us, and they went back and searched back." Fortunately, this time they were far away, and there was still time to escape. I wonder if there are any hounds. Thinking wildly in his heart, he had already pulled Gu Lingling and ran out of the cave and fled down the mountain.

Ye Suiyun's sprinting affected the injuries on his body, especially the few wounds that had just been bitten as if dozens of knives were cutting, but he knew that at this moment, the lives of the two were at stake, so he had to endure the pain and not say a word. He knew that no one would come to save him this time, so he had a thought in his heart, the farther he ran, the better. Don't look at Gu Lingling is several years younger than Ye Suiyun, and her feet are really not slow, she doesn't feel dragged and strenuous at all, it seems that she has worked light skills, of course, Ye Suiyun was in a hurry at this time, and she didn't think of these at all.

The two of them slid down the hillside hand in hand, came to the official road, listened carefully, although there was a shout of chasing behind them, fortunately there was no dog barking, it seems that those people may not be able to find the two of them for a while. Looking up, he saw that the east had turned out to be slightly white, Ye Suiyun knew that it had been a night, and if it was dawn, there would be nothing to hide, and his two children would have to be caught.

was worried in his heart, and the sound of galloping horses' hooves came from the official road in the distance, and Ye Suiyun was happy in his heart: "God help me, it's the right time to come." I saw two fast horses galloping from a distance, and the people on the horses could not see clearly because they were still far away. Ye Suiyun pulled Gu Lingling to shrink to the side of the road, and after a while, he could see clearly that they were two young girls, one of them was very young, and they were not much older than Gu Lingling, and they were not far from him.

Ye Suiyun thought to herself: "The little girl is you, even if I'm sorry, I have to rob your horse, you just walk slowly, and the two of us will die if we are caught up." "I made up my mind that I would never hurt anyone, and only intercepted the girl and snatched the horse away. In the blink of an eye, the horse had come closer, Ye Suiyun jumped out, stopped with both hands, and the person on the horse saw this and hurriedly pulled the reins of the horse, and the yellow horse stood still after a long neigh.

The girl said angrily: "Don't you want to live? I saw that this girl's skin was like condensed fat, and her appearance was beautiful. Ye Suiyun couldn't help but be stunned, when the girl saw this, her face was angry, and she was about to scold, but Ye Suiyun grinned, pushed out with both palms, and pushed the other party's shoulder with a move' of 'double dragon out of the water', using the palm technique she had learned when she was a child. Thinking of pushing the horse rider down, the girl's right hand swept away the attacking palms, and her left hand grabbed his right hand, Ye Suiyun was grabbed by the acupoint of his right hand, his whole body was sore, and he was shocked and angry. The girl dismounted, kicked Ye Suiyun to the ground, stretched out her foot and stepped on his back and said, "Where is the little thief, who dares to block the road and rob even this three-legged cat style?" Hahaha... ”

Ye Suiyun's head was on the ground, and he secretly complained in his heart, calling him unlucky, how could he meet all the people who were so strong in martial arts, and besides, this girl was younger than himself. In the past, I didn't dare to use martial arts casually, but young people were always eager to try to find someone to try, and today I was defeated by people in less than two moves two times in a row, and I was extremely frustrated in my heart for a moment.

Gu Lingling rushed over and grabbed the girl's arm and cried: "Sister, sister, don't fight, someone is chasing us, Brother Suiyun is not trying to hurt you, they will kill us if they catch us... Whining. She was already young, and in a hurry, she spoke incoherently. But the girl probably understood a thing or two in her heart, because she also heard a noisy human voice not far away.

At this time, the second horse had also arrived, and it was a slightly older girl, who looked similar to Ye Suiyun, with a beautiful appearance, two eyes that were very smart, and a seven-stringed guqin on her back. Ye Suiyun was worried that the Ye family would catch up, and he was frightened, so he was helplessly trampled on the ground, and wanted to beg for mercy, but when he turned his head, his whole face was on the ground, and he ate a mouth full of dust. The older girl burst out laughing and said, "Senior sister, let him go." ”

The girl snorted proudly, let go of Ye Suiyun, and said to her senior sister: "It seems that they were chased here, senior sister, do you want to save them?" ”

Senior sister said: "Since we bumped into us, how can we not save you from death, besides, this little sister is so young." Then he turned his head and said, "Little sister, come and get on my horse." Pulling Gu Lingling on the horse, he said to his junior sister, "You can ride with us." The girl agreed, got on the second horse, raised her chin, and motioned for Ye Suiyun to sit on her horse.

Ye Suiyun didn't care about the dust on his body, turned over the horse, pulled the reins of the horse, and the two horses went away. The people from the Hidden Sword Villa also happened to have arrived, and seeing a few people running away, they could only shout and scold, but they were helpless.

The horses ran wild for three hours, but fortunately, the three girls were very light, and the horses could bear it, and they did not show any fatigue. After making sure that the pursuers had been thrown a hundred miles away, the four dismounted and rested. Ye Suiyun followed the rules of the rivers and lakes taught by his grandmother, clasped his hands into fists and said: "Thank you to the two heroines for saving their lives, Ye Suiyun thanked you." ”

The two girls were amused by his serious appearance, and the junior sister asked, "What's going on with you, tell me quickly." ”

Ye Suiyun thought to himself: "I want to save people, but the result is that I fail everywhere, and this little sister who is harmed is also a repeated adventure, what else is there to say, besides, how do you know if these two people have anything to do with the Hidden Sword Villa, or thank you for leaving early." I was about to speak, but I heard Gu Lingling already chattering, maybe because he had just escaped and was in a relaxed mood, so he spoke a lot more cleverly and fluently. Especially how Ye Suiyun sacrificed his life three times and twice to save him is even more emotionally exaggerated. If these words are said by adults, they will inevitably feel exaggerated, but when they come out of the mouth of a little girl like Gu Lingling, it makes people feel more sincere and credible. Ye Suiyun was also inconvenient to stop him, so he stood by and listened, sometimes he felt embarrassed to hear Gu Lingling praising himself for his bravery, and thought: "My little kung fu is clearly known, and such praise can make people laugh to death." ”

After talking for a long time, the two girls finally understood, although they didn't know that this little girl was a person in the Cardinal Sect, but they also had a general understanding of what happened after that. After the introduction of the two, Ye Suiyun learned that the younger one was called Tang Xiao, who was only two years older than Gu Lingling, and was only twelve years old this year, and her senior sister was called Murong Yunqing, who was fifteen years old. If it is a person with a little experience in rivers and lakes, he will naturally be surprised, but Ye and Gu are both fledglings, and they don't know how famous Wanhua Valley is, so there is nothing surprising.

Tang Xiaoxiao said to Ye Suiyun: "I didn't expect you to be a big hero, it's a pity that your martial arts are too bad, haha." Ye Suiyun has suffered too many frustrations in the past two days, and he doesn't take these teasing to heart, he is open-minded, and he doesn't care when he hears the sarcasm in his words, he just smiles.

Murong Yun hurriedly said: "Senior sister is not right to say this, Brother Ye is willing to stand up even though he knows that his skills are not enough, which is worthy of our admiration." If it weren't for him, Lingling's little sister would have been killed as early as the Hidden Sword Villa. Ye Suiyun was so grateful in his heart, but he didn't know what to say to thank him, so he just stayed there.

Tang Xiao nodded and said, "That's right, okay, Brother Ye family, Xiaoxiao will match you with one." After saying that, he bowed his hand. Ye Suiyun hurriedly shook his hand: "Don't dare, don't dare." ”

Murong Yunqing smiled slightly: "It stands to reason that we should have helped you send this little sister home, but we also have important matters now, so we can't delay, there is no way." ”

Ye Suiyun nodded and said, "Please, Ye Suiyun thanked you again." Murong Yunqing nodded, turned around and got on the horse, and walked in front.

Tang Xiao walked to Ye Suiyun's side, took out a pair of small puppets from his bag, and said to Ye Suiyun: "Brother Ye, you are a good person, but unfortunately I have something important to do and can't help you." After a pause, he continued: "This pair of puppets was given by my teacher, I gave it to you, if you have any difficulties in the future, take it to Wanhua Valley or Tangmen, as long as someone sees it, you can find me." ”

Ye Suiyun refused to pick it up, pretending to be an adult for a long time, and at this time, he hurriedly returned to the tone of a child, and said: "Grandma said, you can't just take other people's things, besides, you helped me... Speaking of this, seeing the slight disappointment in Tang Xiao's eyes, his heart was hot, he took the puppet with both hands, and said, "Then thank you." ”

Tang Xiao smiled like a silver bell, turned around and got on the horse, pulled the reins of the horse, and walked away in the direction of Murong Yunqing.

Ye Suiyun hung the two puppets around his waist and took Gu Lingling's hand, not knowing where to go. I didn't dare to go back, so I had to walk aimlessly. For a few days, when they were hungry, they went to ask others for food, and when they saw their two children, covered with mud and tattered clothes, they thought they were two little beggars, and they felt pity for them, so they gave them some food. Gu Lingling followed Ye Suiyun's side and also knew the situation of the two, but he was also very well-behaved, not crying or making trouble.

After walking for about two months, I came to a small village and town, and I inquired that this place was called Fengyu Town, which was already the boundary of Henan, and it was less than 200 miles away from Luoyang. The two begged the shopkeeper of an inn for a long time, and the shopkeeper saw that Gu Lingling was very pitiful when he was young, so he agreed to find a grass bunk to sleep on the edge of the horse shed in the backyard of the inn.

slept until midnight, Ye Suiyun was hungry and unbearable, tossing and turning. He thought that Gu Lingling had fallen asleep, but he heard the sound of stomach rumbling behind him, he turned around and looked, Gu Lingling was also looking at him with two big eyes. Ye Suiyun knew that she was the same as herself, and thought: "This little sister is afraid of her own trouble, and she can't bear to say it when she is hungry." I couldn't help but feel sorry. Looking at it again, Gu Lingling's dirty little face was yellow and thin, and she knew that she had also suffered a lot during this time. After all, she is very sensible and never cries, thinking of this, Ye Suiyun sat up and said with a smile: "If you are hungry, just say it, I am also hungry." Well, I'm going to find something to eat. Gu Lingling said happily when she heard this: "Okay." After speaking, he found that he was too loud when he was happy, so he hurriedly covered his mouth and stuck out his tongue. Ye Suiyun smiled slightly, and slipped out of the back door lightly.

Come out, Ye Suiyun was worried in his heart, don't look at the confidence in front of Lingling, that is, he knows that this little sister is completely dependent on himself now, and he must not show powerlessness, otherwise how can she be a little girl to support her. But where do you find food now?

After sweeping around, every house closed its door, and thought, "Do you really want to be a beggar and then a thief?" As he was thinking about it, he walked without a clue, when he suddenly saw a large group of people with torches rushing in front of him, with clubs and long knives in their hands. Because the shadow of chasing after him in the Tibetan Sword Villa was still in his heart, Ye Suiyun was a little scared, and he didn't know what to do when he stood in the middle of the road.

The group of people rushed over to see that it was a small flower, standing in the middle of the room with a panicked face. One of them asked, "Hey, little beggar, have you ever seen a man in white pass by?" ”

Ye Suiyun shook his head and pretended to be stupid and said, "I didn't see a single person, but I saw several vicious dogs going this way." ”

The man didn't understand what he meant, and said viciously: "If not, don't get in the way, damn Bazi, be careful that Uncle will break your dog's leg in anger, get out of the way." Saying that, he kicked over, Ye Suiyun dodged and let go of this kick, and the man couldn't help but be furious, shouting: "His grandmother's, the little beggar is looking for death." After that, he used the stick in his hand to beat, and a person next to him stretched out his hand to stop him and said: "Don't make trouble, it's important to greet the main person, otherwise it will be difficult for the master to blame it." The man nodded yes, glanced at Ye Suiyun fiercely, and beckoned everyone to chase in the direction where Ye Suiyun came.

Ye Suiyun was angry, but because of what happened recently, he was not very confident in his martial arts, and just as he was about to leave, he heard a groan from the alley next to him.

Ye Suiyun was startled, looking at the dark alley, he didn't know whether to run or see what was going on, and when he was hesitating, he heard a cough again, as if someone was seriously injured, Ye Suiyun was curious, and he didn't care about being afraid, so he walked over. I saw a person lying in the garbage heap in the depths of the alley, with blood stains on his white clothes.

Ye Suiyun hurriedly went over to help him up, and sniffed out for a while. Lifting this man over his shoulder, he thought that it seemed that the group of villains just now were looking for him. I don't care who it is, I will save people first. Helplessly, this person was tall and heavy, and Ye Suiyun had to drag him away.

After returning to the stable, Ye Suiyun was already out of breath, and Gu Lingling was so frightened that he almost screamed out when he saw Ye Suiyun carrying a man covered in blood on his back. Ye Suiyun signaled that she didn't need to be afraid. Tell her to scoop up some water. Gu Lingling ran away, you must know that there is a well in this backyard, there is no food, and the water is inexhaustible.

The man took a few mouthfuls of water, and his mind seemed to be a little clearer, and he said to Ye Suiyun: "Thank you, little brother." ”

Ye Suiyun asked, "This big brother, why are those people chasing and killing you?" After all, it was a young man who was curious, so he asked casually.

The man took two more sips of water and said slowly: "My name is Tao Hanting, and the people in the rivers and lakes call me the white-clothed Meng Wei. Speaking of this, Tao Hanting thought about it, where did the two children care about my nickname, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, and continued: "There are hundreds of miles here, and the most powerful is 'Nan Batian' Song Tiannan, his son Song Xiaosheng killed my wife, I killed Song Xiaosheng in a fit of rage, and those people just now were Nan Batian's subordinates." ”

Ye Suiyun nodded and said, "It's good to kill, but they killed your wife, doesn't the government care?" ”

Tao Hanting gasped and said: "Song Tiannan is the most powerful here, and the local government has a nest of snakes and rats with him, so how can he care." When I said this, I thought of my murdered wife, and I couldn't help but shed tears. I only heard him say to himself: "I, Tao Hanting, have been helping others all my life, and I have been understanding good karma, but in the end, I ended up like this, is this how to be a good person?" He was saddened. Ye Suiyun and Gu Lingling didn't know how to persuade them, so they could only remain silent.

After crying for a while, Tao Hanting raised his head and asked, "Little brother, who are you and why are you here?" ”

Ye Suiyun didn't know how to answer, so after thinking about it, he only said: "Brother Tao, my name is Ye Suiyun, and her name is Gu Lingling." I'm going to take her home, but we don't know where her home is. The two of them walked to this stormy town randomly. ”

Tao Hanting asked, "Isn't there any clue at all?" ”

Ye Suiyun said: "I heard Lingling say what her house is called 'Dihua Palace'. ”

Tao Hanting's face changed, and he asked, "You are from the Red Cloth Sect?" ”

Ye Suiyun replied: "This little sister is, my home is in Hangzhou City, Yuhang County. ”

Tao Hanting nodded and said: "Well, it doesn't matter if he is a red-clothed sect or not, there are no good people and bad people in the world." Good people don't necessarily have good rewards, and bad people don't necessarily fail to do good deeds. Ye Suiyun listened to his words, as if he was saying it to himself, and it seemed that Tao Hanting was talking to himself, and he didn't know what to say.

Tao Hanting eased his breath, calmed down and continued: "Little brother, I have heard of the Dihua Palace, but it is thousands of miles away from here, and you can't go there, but you have to inquire about the Red Cloth Sect, maybe I can give you some clues." ”

When Ye Suiyun heard this, his spirits were greatly lifted, and he said happily: "Brother Tao, tell me quickly, how to find the Cardinal Sect." ”

Tao Hanting smiled slightly: "You are a man, but the little sister is not as bearable as you, her stomach has ringed several times." When Gu Lingling heard this, he was very embarrassed, and his little face was slightly red.

Ye Suiyun found a bag of dry food in a ruined temple outside Fengyu Town according to Tao Hanting's instructions and brought it back, Gu Lingling, who was already hungry, put his heart on his back, divided the food between Ye Suiyun and Tao Hanting, and ate it with relish.

Tao Hanting hesitated for a while and said: "This place is very dangerous, in fact, I shouldn't have let you go, but if you want to find clues about the Cardinal Sect, it may only be the closest here, and I don't know if it's right or wrong to tell you." ”

Ye Suiyun said: "Brother Tao, please speak, no matter how dangerous it is, I have to send Lingling to my family's side, otherwise I can't take care of myself, will I always take her with me?" ”

Tao Hanting nodded and said, "More than a hundred miles south from Fengyu Town is Luodao, you can go and look for it, I know that there are often red-clothed people there." He paused for a moment, as if thinking of something, and then said, "But remember, there is a place that must not be approached, and it is called Li Ducheng. ”
