Chapter 184: The Grace of the Spring
The sudden attack made Shen Yi stunned for a few seconds, and after reacting, he said angrily: "Old witch, you don't talk about martial arts!" ”
Tsurumi Hatsuun took a few steps back and said with a smile: "Aren't you going to have a snowball fight, come on?" As she spoke, she beckoned, and Shen Yi also got up and quickly rubbed out a lump of snow lumps wrapped in dead leaves next to her, and threw it over without saying a word.
She dodged and said defiantly: "Come on, come on!" With that, he ran away.
Seeing that it didn't hit, Shen Yiyou quickly picked up the snowballs, and then smashed them one by one.
"I'm here."
"You wait!"
"Still didn't hit it."
"You ......"
"What are you doing when the regiment is so big? You're chasing me. ”
"Damn! If you have the ability, don't move! ”
“……”
The distance was too far, and Shen Yi didn't know how many snowballs she toss, anyway, only one snowball barely landed on her feet.
On the other hand, Tsuru saw Hatsuyun picking up snow while rubbing, occasionally throwing one, Shen Yi wanted to dodge, but because of his body structure, he really couldn't rub snowballs while moving like her, so he could only stick to each other.
Gradually, she smiled more and more happily, and for her, the snowball fight became more and more fun.
"I'm not playing anymore."
"No, you have to play with me first, and you can't go back."
"It's not fair!"
"How unfair, who let you bully me?"
Syllable!
"Ahhhh
Shen Yi couldn't remember how many times he had been smashed, seeing the old witch laughing so happily, he was so angry in his heart, he really wanted to catch her and bully her.
But then he remembered something, moved his wings, and suddenly calmed down.
"Okay, old witch, you want to play, right? Wait. With such a cruel remark, he immediately ran to the edge of a dirt ditch, concentrated on picking up the snowball, and ignored the snowball thrown from behind Tsurumi Hatsukumo.
Not long after, another basketball-sized snowball was rubbed out, and after the incident, he grabbed some yellow mud and slapped it on it to reinforce it.
Turning around, he looked at Tsurumi Hatsukumo opened his mouth, revealing a mouth full of fangs.
He was laughing.
It's an evil laugh!
Seeing Shen Yi's strange expression, Tsuru saw that Chuyun faintly felt a little bad, and in the next second, the smile on her face disappeared completely, only to see Shen Yi flapping her wings and rising into the air, grabbing the snowball that had just been rubbed out and flying towards her.
"Wait a minute! I don't play anymore. ”
"Yo, don't want to play now? It's late! ”
"You're fooling!"
"What a trick, this is called a natural advantage!
"Master, I was wrong......"
Syllable~
"Hmm...... Bah. ”
"Call the master!"
"Master, Chuyun is wrong, you can let me go."
"Wait until I'll rub another one."
"You...... I really don't play anymore! ”
……
After a night of playing, early the next morning, Shen Yi, who had just finished enjoying the bathing service, climbed comfortably on the blanket and looked at the person in front of him who was wronged to wash his clothes.
"Still playing?"
"You're annoyed!"
Seeing that Hatsuyun was now full of resentment, he didn't want to pay attention to Shen Yi at all.
And he threw a few beast pills into his mouth, watching her wash her clothes, and couldn't stop laughing from his mouth.
"Hey, hey, it's fun."
Listening to his voice, Tsurumi Hatsuyun felt even more angry, and the strength of rubbing clothes became heavier, and the washboard was about to smoke.
After washing the clothes, she put away the items around her, got on the horse, and said to Shen Yi angrily, "Let's go." ”
Shen Yi didn't bother to bother with her, and immediately turned into a ball of light and drilled into her eyebrows.
Taking a deep breath, she said nothing, and gently pinched the horse's belly with her foot, so that the horse could walk on the muddy road.
At noon, it snowed again, and the snow was not heavy, but the cold wind kept blowing, blowing the snow on the ground.
She stopped at a slope and wobbed at the dark shadows approaching her in the distance.
"What's that?"
"I don't know."
She shook her head, frowning slightly, but did not stop for long, and let the horse under her continue to walk, not much faster.
As the distance between the two sides got closer and closer, she and Shen Yi both saw clearly, it was a convoy, there were about four carriages in it, there was no carport, it was full of people, and the old horse pulling the cart was very pitiful, walking on this snowy road with difficulty, step by step.
Suddenly, someone in the carriage took out their weapons, and Tsurumi Hatsuru didn't dare to be careless, and he also drew his long sword and looked at them vigilantly.
The atmosphere became scorching, as if the snowflakes in the sky slowed down the speed of falling, and the distance between the two sides was still approaching, and when there was only a distance of less than five zhang, she and Shen Yi could see more clearly.
That's right, the car was full of people, except for a few men wearing cotton jackets full of patches, most of the others were women and children, huddled in a small car, covered only with dirty bedding, but where could these withstand the cold of winter?
Snow was falling on the top of their heads and shoulders on both of them, they shivered with cold, and they were all yellow-skinned and visibly malnourished.
The only man who seemed to be in good shape was a middle-aged man sitting in the first carriage, but this man was carrying a knife on his back, revealing only the black hilt, and the blade part of the knife was tightly wrapped in red cloth.
At first glance, you can see that he is not an ordinary person, but definitely a psychic.
After a glance, Tsurumi Hatsukumo probably guessed where these people came from, nine times out of ten they were refugees who fled from the north.
Thinking of this, she took the lead in putting away her sword, and the men in the carriage saw her movements, and put down their sickles and axes one after another.
Eyes were on her, but more on the cloak with silver filigree embroidery draped over her, and then bowed their heads and whispered.
"That big piece doesn't look ordinary, it's worth a lot of money."
"I heard him say when my son was alive, that kind of rice sells for more than 50 yuan a piece."
"I don't know which big family's daughter."
"I'm afraid not, on such a cold day, how can the daughter of a big family walk outside on horseback alone?"
"Isn't Mo the same as Brother Li, who is also a psychic?"
“……”
The distance between the two sides was further shortened, and Tsurumi Hatsuyun was brewing something, but before she could speak, the middle-aged man who was sitting in the first carriage and was called "Brother Li" shouted first: "Girl, please stop." ”
"Huh?" As soon as she pulled the reins, the horse stopped, and she looked at the other party and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Li Hongquan beckoned everyone to stop first, and then got out of the car door and came to Tsurumi Chuyun and arched his hand: "That's the case, I fled from the north, and the dry food on my body has long been exhausted, and I have been hungry for several days, and I want to ask for some food from the girl." ”
"Eat ......" she glanced at the people in the four carriages and hesitated.
As if he was afraid that she wouldn't give it, Li Hongquan hurriedly added: "Don't worry, girl, we also have some money on us, and we won't ask you for nothing." ”
As he spoke, he turned his head to look at everyone, and shouted: "Uncle, mother, and other villagers, take out the extra money on your body, it's okay to be hungry like this, but the dolls can't hold Cangzhou." ”
Li Hongquan has a strong appeal among these people, and as soon as the words fell, everyone moved, stood up and groped for money, and finally scattered together a hundred copper coins.
Tsurumi Hatsuun was speechless, not to mention that these copper plates were still there, even if it was now, she couldn't look down on it.
It's okay to buy corn cakes, but the problem is that she doesn't like to eat corn cakes, which are too hard and unpalatable, so she comes with dried meat and white flour as food on the road.
And these things, ordinary people are rarely willing to spend money to buy, hundreds of copper coins, for the people is not a small amount, to buy white noodles or meat meat is enough for a family to eat at most, and so many people in the car, it is not enough at all.
If it was on weekdays, she didn't bother to pay attention to these refugees, but now she also had questions to ask the other party, sighed and said: "I have what you want to eat, but you should keep the money yourself." ”
This sentence made the expression on Li Hongquan's face froze, and before he could react, a bunch of things appeared next to him.
The people in the car were also stunned for a while, and soon someone reacted, got out of the car and opened it to take a look, and this look almost didn't jump.
"It's noodles! Uncle Lu, come and see, it's noodles! ”
"And white noodles!"
"Meat...... Here's the meat! ”
“……”
The ragged people in the carriage got out of the carriage one after another, and they were already exhausted from hunger, and suddenly saw the pile of food in front of them, and they only felt like they were daydreaming.
Li Hongquan retracted his gaze, looked at Tsurumi Chuyun in a daze, and asked in a trembling voice, "These things...... You really don't want money? ”
She shook her head.
"Don't."
This food was only a fraction of all the dry food she had on her, and when she got to the next town, she could buy more with the money in her hand.
She didn't need to worry about this at all, but these foods were dreamed of for the people who had fled from the north in front of her.
Looking at these things that could almost be said to be life-saving, Li Hongquan didn't know what to say for a while, and knelt down directly with his knees bent.
"Girl, I can't repay such a great kindness, please accept Li's worship!" After saying that, he slammed his head on the snow and dug a hole so hard that Tsurumi Hatsukumo, who was riding a horse, had no time to stop him.
And those refugees also looked away from the food when they saw Li Hongquan's movements, and they learned to kneel as they could.
"Alright, there's no need for this, I have something to ask you." She turned over and dismounted, stretched out her hand to help Li Hongquan up, and at the same time stopped the crowd behind her.
"You also get up, and you don't need to make such a fuss."
"Girl, you are really Tianzun alive, and I am ...... in Mangrove Village"
"Okay, okay, okay, hurry up, I'll just ask some questions." Such a scene gave Tsurumi Hatsuun a little headache.
Seeing that she was uncomfortable, Li Hongquan wiped the snow on her forehead and shouted, "Be quiet, go back!" ”
Everyone quickly quieted down, leaving only a group of grateful eyes looking at her, Li Hongquan then turned his head to Tsurumi Chuyun and said respectfully: "If the girl has any questions, then ask, we must know everything, but we don't know many things, if you can't answer, please don't blame the girl." ”
She breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "It's okay, I just want to know what this place is." ”
"This ......"
This question is very simple, but it really stumped Li Hongquan, and after a while, he said a little embarrassed: "Sorry girl, we ...... I really don't know what this place is......"
"Uh...... So where did you come from? ”
"Jizhou, the boundary of Zhupoli."
"It's so far."
"Yes, it took us two months to get here from Jizhou, and we weren't afraid of the girl's jokes, but it snowed overnight the day before yesterday, lost a lot of things, killed a lot of people, and the rest of us were lost here."
Tsurumi Hatsukumo nodded, thought for a while, and then asked, "Did you pass by some villages when you came?" ”
"There is a passing, it seems to be called ......" Li Hongquan couldn't remember clearly, what he was recalling, but he didn't need to recall, and someone soon said: "The village we passed through is called Tugou Village!" ”
"Tugou Village......" Tsurumi Hatsuun repeated, took out the map in front of everyone and looked at it, and soon found the place marked with Tugou Village.
Sure enough, it is already far away from Fenghe Town, if you go to Tugou Village, the next stop is one of the big cities within the boundaries of Changzhou.
Jua City.
"Isn't it so much?" Seeing the map, Shen Yi couldn't help but say that there was no giant city in the old witch's original route.
After Fenghe Town, and then pass through three or four towns, you can basically enter Jizhou.
But now passing through Ju'a City is the shortest route.
Obviously, he has been flying north, but the direction is not biased, and Shen Yi can't say.
He's not a compass.
But he now understands what it means to miss a fraction of a second, a thousand miles away.
"What do you say?" She replied with Shen Yi.
At this time, Li Hongquan withdrew his gaze from the map and asked hesitantly: "Looking at the girl's dress, I want to come from an extraordinary background, right?" ”
"Well, sort of." Tsurumi Hatsumo nodded, she was from an extraordinary background, but that was before.
"Why is that girl out alone?"
"It's a long story, in fact, I'm not from Daliang......" briefly explained his "situation", including the reasons why he wanted to go to the north,
After listening, Li Hongquan once again bowed his hands and blessed from his heart: "Then Li wishes Miss Jiang to find the elders in the family as soon as possible." ”
"Lend you good words."
"But Li is still kind enough to remind him, now Jizhou is in turmoil, the people are not living, there are countless refugees like us, Changzhou is fine, but there are a lot of bandits on the road, Li Mou is not to mention, fist and foot kung fu can also be regarded as entering the house, but it can also cope with it......"
Speaking of this, Li Hongquan's tone was paused, and when he spoke again, his tone became a little heavier.
"But if you pass through this Changzhou, it will not only be a troublemaker, the girl should also understand what Li meant, we people have gone through nine deaths to escape, if it is not necessary, Li still persuades the girl not to go north."
"I know that, but I have to go." Tsurumi Chuyun also has bitterness and can't say, going north is nine deaths and one life, but if he stays in Daliang all the time and waits for Cha Yingsi to find him, it will be ten deaths.
If it was really as simple as being separated from the elders in the family, she could have traveled in the south of Daliang, waiting for the elders to find her and "go home" smoothly.
"Since the girl has made up her mind, then Li will not say more."
"Well, let's leave it at that." She mounted her horse and pulled the reins in farewell.
Li Hongquan nodded, raised his hand and said, "Girl, be careful on the road." ”
"So are you."
Seeing that Chuyun didn't stay for long, the shadow took a step and walked forward, but he didn't go far, and Li Hongquan, who remembered something, shouted again: "Girl, I forgot to say, Li's full name is Li Hongquan, if he meets again one day, Li will do his best to repay the grace of today's spring!" ”
