Zhang Heng didn't know if this sentence was listened to by Cao Dade, and he didn't know how much his words today played a big role for their future path, but the two of them went farther and farther away, and in the night, bursts of young children's laughter and helpless admonitions came and went.

After returning to the house, Cao Dade settled down and put it on the side of the bed, because the night was dark, Cao Dade quickly fell asleep, but he didn't know what was going on, such a three-year-old child would have such a loud snoring sound when he slew, Zhang Heng sat on the edge of the bed and stared at the small stove, but he couldn't get into the state because of the snoring, and his forehead jumped and jumped, and he had no choice but to report the small stove to another hall to escape from that place.

On the second day, Zhang Heng woke up before dawn, put on the clothes that Aunt Liu sewed for her on weekdays, and went out, and started to run around the village.

This is a habit developed two years ago, I still remember that afternoon, the old gentleman who taught and Zhang Heng chatted and said, "Zhang Heng, the old man has stayed in the village all his life, and he has taught all his life, and his biggest wish in this life is to be able to go out to the outside world to have a look." ”

Zhang Heng asked glutinously, "Sir, didn't you say that the outside world is very dangerous, why do you have to go out?"

When the old gentleman heard Zhang Heng's words, he poked his round little face with his finger and said, "It's very dangerous outside, but it's also very exciting" When he said this, Zhang Heng looked at the look on the old gentleman's face, he didn't know how to understand, but he felt that kind of look was very solemn.

After a pause, the old gentleman said again, "If it's dangerous, you can run, as long as you run fast enough, the danger won't catch up with you, you see that I am already over sixty years old, although I am a scholar, but the body of the old man is not worse than a reckless man like your Uncle Liu." As he spoke, he raised his arms and chest, with a proud look on his face.

Zhang Heng nodded matter-of-factly, she also knew that the old gentleman was a scholar and was familiar with Lile poetry, but his body was much better than that of an ordinary middle-aged man, Zhang Heng could often see the old gentleman boxing and lifting stones in the courtyard of the school, so he had no doubt about what the old gentleman said.

Zhang Heng asked, "Sir, have you seen the outside world?"

The old gentleman smiled and said nothing.

Zhang Heng asked again: "Sir, how do you know that the outside world is very exciting?"

Hearing Zhang Heng's eager voice, the old gentleman laughed three times before he spoke, "How wonderful the outside world is depends not on the outside world, but on here." With that, he pointed to his heart.

Zhang Heng didn't understand what the old gentleman's words meant, but it didn't affect him from then on, he got up half an hour early every morning to go for a run, he thought that one day he would have to go to the outside world to see, just like the old gentleman said, if he ran fast enough, wouldn't there be no danger?

"Hey, Heng boy, get up and exercise again?" When Zhang Heng ran to the entrance of the village, a picker passed by and joked.

"Uncle Wang, are you here to sell goods?" Zhang Heng stopped, this picker came once every ten days and half a month, and every time he brought some gadgets that were not available in the town, which was very popular with the people in the village.

"Yes, you're here to sell the goods, last time you said you had some wool, so sell it to me this time. The picker said.

Zhang Heng has been a shepherd for a long time, and today's wool is still at home, so he asked the picker to take it away, so the picker asked.

"Then Uncle Wang, you come with me, not far ahead. After the words fell, Zhang Heng also led the way, he often came to pick the merchant to see, but because he was shy in his pocket, he didn't think about buying anything, so he thought about selling it with wool to see if there were any good things to buy. The two talked and laughed all the way, and soon came to Zhang Heng's house.

At this time, Cao Dade may have woken up in the main house, and there were bursts of crying when he couldn't see anyone, Zhang Heng hurriedly took out the wool and gave the picker an apologetic look, and then walked into the house and hugged Cao Dade out.

"Heng boy, this is?" Seeing the child picker, he was shocked, thinking that it was Zhang Heng's son, and then his eyes were strange.

Zhang Heng was not stupid, he was almost depressed when he saw the picker's eyes, and hurriedly explained, "This is Uncle Liu's son, I brought it here to live for a few days." ”

Hearing the explanation, the picker smiled awkwardly, and hurriedly weighed the remaining wool together, "A total of five taels of silver." The picker said.

Zhang Heng inquired about the price of wool, and when he heard the words of the picker, he didn't bargain, but he just uncovered the picker's flat shoulder, looked at the piles of gadgets inside, and thought that he couldn't use it, and when he was about to cover it, Cao Dade in his arms hurriedly struggled to climb into the pile of goods, and as soon as he reached out, he picked up a rattle in the corner, swayed from side to side, and a crisp sound sounded.

Hearing that voice, Zhang Hate's eyes lit up, he didn't have anything good since he was a child, and now he saw that the rattle little guy liked it tightly, and he was also happy to see it, so he turned his head to the picker and said, "How much is Uncle Wang's drum?"

The picker was loading wool, and when he heard Zhang Heng's question, he didn't look back and said, If you like it, give you ten copper plates.

As soon as he heard that this thing asked for ten copper plates, Zhang Heng was also distressed, after all, he sometimes couldn't earn so much in a month, but seeing Cao Dade holding it and not letting go, let out a giggle laugh, Zhang Heng also gritted his teeth, poured out ten copper plates from a small money bag in his arms and handed them to the picker.

Not long after, the picker cleaned up and looked at Zhang Heng holding the child, he also smiled, took out a string of sugar gourds from another large frame, handed it to Zhang Heng and said, "Uncle Wang has nothing to give you, give you a string of sugar gourds for the child to eat." ”

Zhang Heng was also not polite, took it and handed it to the child in his arms, thanked the picker, and looked at Cao Dade, who had a rattle in his left hand and a sugar gourd in his right hand, and was also happy in his heart. "Children can't suffer, just spend a little money. ”

After the picker left, he came to Uncle Liu's house to eat, and after eating, he took Cao Dade out again, carrying a small basket on his back, and in the basket sat a child, the child held a small rattle in his hand and swayed, while the young man drove the sheep to the valley again.

After arriving in the valley, he let the child play on the flat grass, and Zhang Heng took off his clothes and jumped into the pool to bathe, the sun was warm, Zhang Heng gradually leaned on where to sleep, there have been sheep here for a few years, and I haven't seen any snakes and insects or anything like that, so I don't worry about putting a child here.

The sun was slanting westward, maybe the child was tired of playing, and he was already asleep on the grass with his back on his back, and Zhang Heng also opened his eyes in a daze, but the next moment he opened his eyes wide, and the whole person plunged into the water, only revealing a small head, looking at the person who was half of his body soaked in the water not far away, it should be a girl from a distance, but it seemed to be asleep, Zhang Heng was in a dilemma, he was not wearing clothes now, and the girl seemed to be asleep, and he screamed a few times tentatively and did not respond, so he hurriedly went ashore to observe, while quickly getting dressed, and waited until the clothes were worn to take care of Cao Dade, seeing that he was sleeping very deeply, he didn't pay attentionand ran not far from the girl.

I saw that the girl had red lips and white teeth, a petite figure, and a decent dress set off a beautiful face, which made Zhang Heng stunned for a few seconds, and then looked at it carefully, he had never seen such a good material of clothes on the girl's body so big, only to see the ambilight, and it flashed with a faint halo, even if he was lying on the ground, half of his body was in the water, but there was no dirt and dust on the clothes, where had he ever seen this.

So he spoke again, "Little girl, little girl, wake up, you are lying on the ground." ”

Zhang Heng screamed a few times and didn't hear any echo, so he stepped forward and turned the girl over, only to find that there was a deep visible scar on the girl's arm, even if it was oozing a trace of blood now, and there were still undried blood stains at the corners of the mouth, Zhang Heng was anxious, which was asleep, this was obviously injured, and hurriedly picked up the girl, put the bamboo basket on his back, and stuffed the sleeping Cao Dade into it, the girl strode towards the village on her shoulder, and even the sheep behind her didn't have time to care.

Usually drive the sheep for half an hour, but today Zhang Heng carried a person on his shoulder, and a small oil bottle on his back, but he walked like a fly, and returned to the village in a few minutes, his face was not red, and he came to the room without panting, and put the girl down.

Looking at the fainted girl Zhang Heng didn't know what to do, there were some herbs in the house, because he often went into the mountains, he also stepped on some herbs just in case, but he didn't expect it to be used now.

Secretly offended, rolled up the clothes on the girl's arms, and applied the washed white cloth to the wound with the herbs that had been mashed alive, and even fainted was made by this rude action with a muffled snort. Looking at the wound that had been bandaged, Zhang Heng exhaled with relief, and then looked at the girl in front of him closely.

The girl was dressed in a purple dress, her eyebrows were picturesque, bright and moving, and a touch of paleness on her face because of the injury, which was even more pitiful, he had never seen such a good-looking woman, and muttered in her mouth, "Better than the little flowers in the village, well, more beautiful than Qingqing, sigh, sigh, and finally summarize a few words, it's really beautiful." ”

But I didn't know that the girl's eyelashes trembled slightly, and a hint of blush appeared on her cheeks.

Suddenly, Cao Dade in the bamboo basket in the yard came from a cry, Zhang Heng retracted his gaze, hurriedly poured a glass of water and put it at the head of the bed, and went out to give the rattle to the crying little boy, Zhang Heng hurriedly took Cao Dade out of the village and back to the valley. He just remembered where the sheep were.

When Zhang Heng left, the girl on the bed opened her eyes tremblingly, looked at the surrounding environment, and muttered to herself, "Deng, little rascal, I don't know anything about the fragrance and cherish the jade, and the person almost vomited." ”

It turned out that the girl woke up halfway, but was carried by a man on the shoulder, bumpy all the way, plus there was an injury and blood loss, fainted, and when he woke up here, he heard the boy say that it was so beautiful, better than the little flowers in the village, and so on, which also made him secretly happy.

Supported to sit up, because of the injury and painful snort, the girl used her left and right hands to wipe the fingers of her right hand, a blank paper and pen appeared, and Juan Xiu wrote a few words, "Thank you for saving me, these silver taels should be used as a reward, and there will be a period later." Xu Ruyan left "After finishing writing, he put a silver ingot on the table, then got up and walked out, but when he got to the door, he retreated, thought about it, took off a hairpin in his hair, put it on the table, and jumped after going out, and a small silver-white boat appeared at his feet, speeding towards the sky.

Zhang Heng, who had just left the village, would definitely sigh if he saw this scene, "Is this a fairy girl?"
