Chapter 9: Sanniang wants you
Three days later.
In the white expanse, two small figures can be seen, walking together.
In recent days, the wind and snow have been getting slower and lighter, and there are faint signs of subsidence.
This is undoubtedly a good thing for the vast majority of people.
I finally survived this cold winter and arrived at the new spring.
In the snow, Chen An tightened his clothes, stopped, and discerned the direction towards the rising sun.
Naturally, they don't have such a compass, but Chen An happens to know some practical tips for the outdoors.
Don't ask for accuracy, just know the general direction.
"Let's go."
He carried his baggage and casually shouted at the girl beside him.
Mu Sanniang didn't make a sound and kept up with him.
It has been three full days since the two of them set off from Liucheng.
According to the footsteps of ordinary people, if you walk fast enough in a day, it is not uncommon to walk sixty or seventy miles.
But now that the road has been closed by heavy snow, the road has become rough and difficult to navigate, and the speed of walking has naturally slowed down.
Chen An estimated that if they came in three days, they might have walked less than 100 miles.
Looking at the silver frost covering both sides of the road, Chen An walked and took out a small piece of cake from his baggage and fed it into the mouth of the girl next to him.
The burden is not light, and it is a bag full of food.
Their appetite is much smaller than that of adults, which is enough for two people to save some food for ten days and eight days.
As for the water source, thanks to the snow water everywhere, there is no shortage of water.
Although most of them are not clean, in the face of survival, who cares about this?
If you are forced to be in a hurry, it is not impossible to drink urine from each other.
Mu Sanniang chewed twice expressionlessly, and suddenly pulled the boy's sleeve.
Chen An was stunned, "What's wrong?" ”
Mu Sanniang didn't speak, just stretched out her finger and pointed to the front of the road.
Chen An squinted his eyes and took her a few quick steps.
I saw that in the position pointed by Mu Sanniang just now, there were many messy footprints.
Seeing these traces, Chen An's spirits lifted.
He turned his head to look at the girl, and there was a little more joy in his tone, "Sanniang, you didn't go the wrong way!" ”
Mu Sanniang just hummed shallowly, but her eyes also lit up slightly.
Everything seems to be going in a good direction.
She thought back to the picture of pulling the boy up from the snowdrift a few days ago, and those pale blue eyes stared at the boy's side face without blinking.
The girl suddenly stepped forward and pecked lightly on Chen An's face at a very fast speed.
Seeing the latter's puzzled look, Mu Sanniang silently looked away and walked forward.
Chen An wiped his face casually, but he didn't care too much in his heart.
Anyway, it's just a kiss on the face, not a kiss on the mouth.
As Mu Sanniang said, as a close person, it is indeed not a big deal to kiss your face occasionally.
Think about it, in the foreign countries of Blue Star, don't they always have the etiquette of kissing the face?
He opened his legs and followed.
The two walked side by side again, Chen An thought for a while, and said, "Sanniang......"
Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by the girl.
Mu Sanniang turned her head, her short hair fluttering lightly in the air.
She said, "Call me sister." ”
Chen An was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.
He took the girl's hand that fell to his side, and changed his words: "Sister, why don't I teach you to read?" ”
Mu Sanniang didn't stop walking and shook her head.
"Don't."
Her reply did not surprise Chen An.
He pinched the girl's palm, no longer the biting coldness, but a little warm.
Maybe the weather has improved, and I have eaten good food recently.
"But sister, there are many benefits to literacy."
Mu Sanniang didn't reply.
"Oh, don't you know each other?"
"What if I'm not there someday?"
Chen An subconsciously replied casually.
As soon as he said that, he felt that something was wrong.
Sure enough, the girl's steps suddenly stopped, and she looked over.
Under the fine bangs, there was no expression as always, just staring at him vigorously.
"You want to leave me?"
Mu Sanniang word by word.
Inexplicably, Chen An felt a chill in his back, and he hurriedly shook his head.
Mu Sanniang looked at him quietly for a while, her eyes wandering on his face.
She looks very meticulously and doesn't miss a single detail.
After a while, the girl turned around and continued walking.
After Chen An followed, he heard her whispered words.
"I picked it up from the snow."
Hearing this, Chen An snorted.
Immediately after, the petite figure turned around and hugged him.
Skin to skin, Chen An noticed the girl's slightly trembling body.
Her head was buried in Chen An's shoulder, and her voice was weak.
"You also ate my bread."
"I only have that piece of bread, I didn't eat it, I'll eat it for you."
"Now that the bread is gone, I only have you."
Little by little, she spoke, as if trying to prove her unreserved affection for the boy.
At this moment, she looks like a real little girl.
There was some hesitation, helplessness, and confusion on his face.
Chen An saw it in his eyes, and his heart seemed to throb with her.
He took the girl into his arms, put his hand on her short hair, and stroked it gently.
Said softly: "It's okay sister, we have bread now, and there will definitely be more in the future." ”
Mu Sanniang's response came slowly, subtle and firm.
"Sanniang doesn't need those."
She raised her head and looked into Chen An's eyes.
"Sanniang wants you."
……
……
The distance is dozens of miles away.
This road, which was devastated by wind and snow, had an old temple erected next to it for no reason.
The appearance of the old temple is quaint, and the gate is closed.
There is a high, thick courtyard wall around the perimeter, and the walls are painted with vivid patterns.
From left to right, the pattern is one after another fiddling with the figures, they are dressed in light veils, their faces are beautiful, and their waists are as light as snakes.
They have different movements, some twist up the corner of the skirt, and some slide off the skirt on the chest, revealing half of the fullness, but none of them are completely naked, and they are all looming.
But it is this appearance of holding the pipa and half-covering his face that makes the figure even more fascinating.
These patterns have a violent conflict with the solemn and simple temperament of the old temple itself, which makes people can't help but have a sense of disobedience at a glance.
In addition, it is not a deep mountain and old forest, but on the edge of such a flat and open avenue.
Whoever looks at it must be vigilant.
However, at this time, the road was snowy, and there were no pedestrians, so no one could appreciate the masterpiece on the courtyard wall.
A little, a figure with golden light pierced the sky and struck straight towards the old temple.
When he got closer, he could see a monk with a big bald head and a robe.
He was tall and mighty, holding a tin staff with two wheels and twelve rings, and his eyes were wide like copper bells.
The monk saw his classic style of old temple, and then saw the astringent pattern on the wall, and he was furious.
He said angrily: "The demon girl of the dog day, Lao Tzu has to kill you today!" ”
