Chapter 10: Robbery
"Suddenly, there is something important, don't say goodbye, I hope to forgive me, he will see you again in the future. ”
Gu Qingcheng stood there motionless, staring at the words on the paper and froze, the candle flame shook his eyes, the light flickered and flickered, and after a long while, he picked up the note, folded it carefully, and put it into his purse.
After doing this, he sat down on the chair as if he had lost his strength, and this sat until dawn.
Gu Qingcheng's eyelids were raised, his eyes were full of bright red bloodshots, he hadn't slept all night, his hand stroked the jade pendant hanging on his waist, and he got up calmly, only to feel a little stiff and sore all over.
Exited the room, leading the gorgeous carriage station in the middle of the road, the figure was lonely, and people came and went around him.
Behind him, not far away, Weng Ran stood in the corner, holding a bun in one hand, eating and watching.
She really didn't worry about this fool alone, anyway, she was going to Wuge, by the way, by the way, by the way, thinking so in her heart, she ate the last bite of the bun hard: "Why doesn't this fool leave!"
The shopkeeper was also a little puzzled, and stepped forward with a smile: "Did the guest officer drop something, or is there something wrong?"
Gu Qingcheng came back to his senses at this time, revealing a bitter smile: "Dare to ask, where is the place to buy and sell horses?"
"Oh~ There is a horse market in Dongcheng, and the business is good. ”
Gu Qing thanked him and left, leaving the little guy wondering in his heart, why was the fairy-like beauty not there yesterday, and he still wanted to take a look at it twice today.
Gu Qingcheng pulled the carriage to the horse market and lost more than half of it, but he didn't care, sold the carriage, and only kept one horse.
Weng Ran followed behind, looking at the horse that was sold, and the horse dealer immediately stepped forward: "Childe, it's really a good eye, this is a good horse, look at this powerful long legs, look at this smooth hair, this tendon meat." ”
"How much do you sell?"
"It's not expensive, it's not expensive, twenty taels. ”
Weng Ran almost threw the dagger in his hand, why don't you grab twenty taels, you only gave the fool five taels of silver just now.
Seeing that her face was not good, the horse dealer immediately said: "Childe, just wait for such a BMW, you go to someone else's house to take a look, you can't get off without twenty-five taels." ”
"Oh, then I'll take a look. ”
Weng Ran said that he turned around and was about to leave, but the horse dealer was in a hurry, and hurriedly caught up: "But I see that the son is handsome and dignified, and this BMW is really a match, I am cheap for you two or two, okay, pay the money." ”
The hand asking for money has reached out.
"Ten taels. ”
Weng Ran made a price, and the horse dealer's face changed abruptly: "Eh, I said this son, can you look at the old man and I am easy to talk, just quote indiscriminately, I ......"
Weng Ran didn't say much, turned around and left, but his hand was pulled, the horse dealer had a calm face, looking like he had lost a lot, handed the reins to Weng Ran with one hand, and trembled with the other: "Okay, just pull a customer, pay the money, and take care of the old man and my business more in the future." ”
Weng Ran got on the horse and rushed towards the city gate, but until he got out of the city gate, he didn't see Gu Qingcheng, he stood on the back of the horse and looked forward, and looked back at the city gate, but there was still no.
"Where's this fool?"
After waiting for a while, Weng Ran's eyes suddenly lit up, and he stood on the hillside, looking at the city gate.
I saw Gu Qingcheng riding a horse, coming out slowly, changing into black clothes, lined with white skin and black hair, feeling more and more aggressive, which made people feel a sense of distance for no reason.
Weng Ran hid behind the tree again, watching Gu Qingcheng ride past with an expressionless face, and then ride to the dust.
Then he led the horse down the hillside and followed from a distance.
From then on, to Xuzhou, you need to pass through two villages, a city, an uninhabited mountain, and then cross the Qingshui River, a town, to Xuzhou, the road can be described as far away.
But Weng Ran found that this Gu Qingcheng seemed to be crazy, only eating, stopping for a while while sleeping, and the rest of the time was galloping all the way, and the horse under him was even tired and foaming, so he changed another horse in the city, and continued to sleep.
Looking at him, Weng Ran felt like he had the feeling of dying in the world before.
In this way, it only took two days for the two to come to that deserted mountainous area.
In the middle of the moon, Gu Qingcheng finally stopped, staggered off the horse, sat on the ground, leaned against an old tree, closed his eyes, and then snoring, looking tired.
Weng Ran quietly nodded his toes, landed on the tree, looked down at the people who had fallen asleep, shook his head helplessly, got up and left, and soon after, he came back with a bunch of hay branches, lit a fire not far from Gu Qingcheng, and flew back to the tree, looking at Gu Qingcheng's red face reflected by the firelight.
I didn't even notice the smile on the corner of my mouth.
Before dawn, Weng Ran opened his eyes, cleaned up the traces of the fire, and left here.
This sleep, Gu Qingcheng slept until the third pole of the sun before opening his eyes, stretched his waist, and continued to hurry.
The terrain of this uninhabited area is steep, the mountain road is rugged, if it rains heavily, there will be rocks falling from time to time, and the official road is not repaired, there is no shop in front of the village, and the original families have also moved away.
Weng Ran rode a horse, followed closely behind, and from time to time he could see some people, carrying baskets and hoes, and going into the mountains to pick.
There are even more local vendors on both sides of the road.
What mountain ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, fairy grass and strange flowers, as well as the fur and bones of birds and animals.
What made Weng Ran stop was a fire spirit bead.
The one who sold the spirit beads was an old man, with a childish face, old and strong, full of energy, with his clothes wide open, and the tendons and flesh were not much better than the horse under her.
Seeing that she stopped to look, the old man didn't greet her, still looking at the sky leisurely, smoking a cigarette bag and pot.
Weng Ran dismounted and looked at the fire spirit bead, the color was red, although it was not a top grade, but it was also worth taking into the bag.
"Price. ”
"Hundred gold. ”
"It's not worth it. ”
"I don't send it. ”
Weng Ran bit his lip, although the hundred gold is a little more expensive, it is not like a lion's mouth, and it is still within an acceptable range, but his money is limited.
"Is it barter?"
"No, you can't. ”
Weng Ran had no choice but to give up and get back on the horse, this old money fan.
The pill he wanted to refine was missing a fire spirit bead, and he was unwilling to move forward, he only had ten pieces of gold, two taels of silver and fifty copper plates, which was too bad, and he was so poor!
"Why don't you go and rob it!"
Weng Ran's eyes lit up, and he looked at the figure that was only a small dot in the distance, and smiled sinisterly and cunningly: "Fool, you should help!"
So, speeding up, running wildly for a while, and finally caught up with Gu Qingcheng, but robbing in broad daylight didn't seem to be very good, Weng Ran's eyes looked around, then turned around, and went up the mountain to the right, I have to say, it's really steep, and the horses don't dare to run fast.
