Volume 1 The Moon in the Clouds Chapter 49 Losing money and instigating a little beggar
After thinking about it calmly for a long time, until the woman's figure was no longer visible in his vision, the little beggar shrugged his shoulders and left.
Besides, the woman who was saved before had a very beautiful face, and the little beggar finally turned his head to look at her and blushed, because of this stunning demeanor, and she was about to fall into it at a glance, but the ordinary cloth clothes came very abruptly, which was incompatible with the temperament around her.
This hero's business has been done at a loss, and the little beggar has gambled in his heart, so he doesn't think about it, and crosses the mountain early, and goes to the town for a night, and the road is the right way.
The town is not small, but there is a bit of the momentum of a small town, everything is supplied, wine shops and teahouses are indispensable, and many small villages around are surrounded by this, which is very popular, and naturally it is prosperous.
The name of the town, Hill Hill. About three or four days away from the town is a border city in Gannan Kingdom, which is also the place where the little beggar will pass. It is said that this hill is not like a small town, but also because it is surrounded by walls, and even many side camps have been set up as a reserve for the front-line war. If you don't build the City God's Temple, you can only make a town in the division of territory.
The little beggar still compared the past with inns in the town, and then chose one to live in, and the money given by Lao Hua was quite solid.
"Have you heard? The fighting on the front line has tightened, and many battles have been lost. The man at the square table raised the bamboo chopsticks in his hand, looked at the two people opposite, and said.
"Not really. One person echoed, and another deep sigh sounded, "Dead piles of people, this batch of cannon fodder in the town has to be pushed up again." β
"Be quiet, it's enough to mumble about this matter, and you have to be arrested if you tell it. Another middle-aged man with thin eyebrows hurriedly poked the man who had spoken earlier with his elbow and glared......
As soon as the little beggar entered the inn, the chatter of the drinkers in the store came around and listened to a lot of things.
The little beggars who came all the way from the hinterland of Gannan had never seen a war, but they were extremely sensitive to this word, and they had seen a lot of it in the book, and they always pitied the little beggars who had died because of the war, which made me feel a little sad.
I asked the shopkeeper for a room, so I went upstairs and shut out many of the voices downstairs and didn't listen to them. He knows that he can't change it, so he dictates less, and the sages say that it's okay to deceive oneself.
......
After a deep night's sleep, the little beggar prepared to continue on his way as soon as the sun was brightened. Walking towards the gate of the town, he had to pass by the border camp in Qiushan Town, but a familiar figure came into his eyes.
At this time, the border camp had just woken up, and everything seemed very quiet, and several cooking smoke were lit in the distance, floating in the gray air that had not yet been lit.
Beside the iron gate of the border camp, a beautiful figure stood, and the dress was not the woman he had rescued in the mountains yesterday? On the opposite side of the woman was a young man, whose figure looked a little thin, and his face was as heavy as the wine guest in the inn yesterday had said.
Although there was a distance apart, the two of them did not hide it, and listened to the ears of the little beggar.
"It's going to be the depths of winter in a while, so I've added a few thick cotton clothes for you. The woman wrapped the cloth bag in her hand and stuffed it into the man's arms.
"Did you bring the money?" the thin man took the cloth bag, but instead of looking at it, he asked.
The figure on the other side seemed to be a little silent with his words, but the man was not in a hurry, he looked at her and waited, and after a long time, the woman took out a few grains of broken silver from her arms.
The thin man's eyes suddenly flashed with joy, and he hurriedly took it and stuffed it into his arms.
"Can you really come out?" the woman's tone was a little more anxious, and she looked deeply.
"I'll be able to come out when I have a good relationship with the big guys above. β
The woman was silent, but still hung her eyes on the person opposite.
"Are Alain and the dog baby alright?" the man began, his heavy eyes lit up.
"It's all good. β
"That's good. β
The thin man happily answered, but he didn't notice that the woman opposite looked at him with something more, and seemed to be a little eager to say something, as if waiting for him to say something more.
"Sister, I should go back, I have to be punished again if I am late. The young man took the woman's hand and slapped it twice, hurried back, waved at her again, and ran back to the camp.
The person outside the iron gate still wanted to reach out and pull, but he sighed heavily, turned around, and happened to see the little beggar not far away, his eyes were a little red.
The little beggar watched her turn around, and then she saw her face, but it was different from yesterday. In sight, the eyes are dark and gloomy, and there is a lot of loss of look, a big black mole is attached to the corner of the mouth, and the face is covered with fine pockmarks, which is not ugly, but matches a lot with the clothes.
The woman brushed away without saying hello to the little beggar, but the little beggar was sure that she recognized her, and the panic in her eyes when she turned around really couldn't be hidden.
He watched the woman's back gradually walk away, the words he heard before were in his heart, and the disdain in the eyes of the border camp guards that the woman had not seen, and he wanted to straighten his brows.
But just before thinking about it, the woman who walked out of a distance in front of her was stopped by a group of people.
The young man at the head was dressed richly, and he had a lot of gold and silver, but the deeply sunken eye sockets and prominent cheekbones suddenly did not match the clothes. The four servants followed behind the rich boy, and understood what kind of shameful things they were going to do.
The ugly young man looked obscenely, pinching his thin little eyes and staring at the woman in front of him unabashedly, his dripping eyes turned from his face to his chest, then to his waist, and back to his chest.
"Where are you going?" a sharp voice sounded, grinding in his ears, stirring up inexplicable upset.
The woman he called Shuiyue frowned suddenly, "Childe recognized the wrong person." β
There are a lot of people in the town who have seen her like this, but there are few people who know her name, this has always been the day after noon, but the son brother came to intercept himself early in the morning, and he really can't figure it out.
"The top card of the drunken sound workshop, which son can forget it?" The lewd man evoked a wicked smile, and was about to reach out to touch the chin of the woman in front of him, but she opened it with a palm and took a few steps back.
Shui Yue looked at the five people in front of her, knowing that there was no need to pretend, someone must have betrayed her, and her eyes darkened.
Not far from the border camp, the soldiers guarding could still see it, but they only watched it, their eyes were full of banter, and there was even a trace of expectation in their eyes, and they did not intend to stop it.
The little beggar looked at the woman, and then at the guards, and his heart sank, I am afraid that this loss-making business to save beauty and not hold beauty will have to be done again, but this is just to think about it, if the beauty really sacrifices her body, it is not that he is afraid to blush.
Before the lewd young man could start to do the job of robbing people, he saw the little beggar standing in front of Shui Yue, holding a short whip, staring at the five of them.
The rich young man who was robbed of his soul by the color of wine is not as thoughtful as the bandit guy, although he is also stunned, but he is mindless and shouts at the family behind him to bump up, to rob the beauty, and stick to the waist to watch.
"Boy, how many days have you been a cat next to my house?" the young man's eyes suddenly rose with a joke, and he said disdainfully, "If you want to fight my eyeballs, I don't have to be like this, Childe, I will accept dog slaves." When the four people beside him heard this, their expressions did not change, but a light flashed in their eyes.
"Just show your hands and take a look, if the trellis style is good, you can also accept it. β
The little beggar didn't understand, but the few people around laughed, called with a grin, and beckoned the cooperation around him to start lightly.
But the little beggar could understand at a glance, as soon as the short whip moved, the woman behind her knew that the four people in front of her were finished. Even the mountain bandit who licked the blood at the tip of the knife was no match for the young man, let alone a few miscellaneous servants?
I only heard the short whip pierce with a weak sound of breaking wind, and the four figures fell to the ground and screamed in pain. It is indeed a weak rumor, and the little beggar is afraid that it will hurt them, but he still can't stand it.
The light in the young man's eyes suddenly became brighter, and he hurriedly clapped his hands, but the eyes of the four people lying on the ground were shocked.
"Accept, this son has accepted!" The joy went up, and the obscene young man praised it wonderfully, but he didn't understand the situation in front of him at all.
The little beggar turned his head to look at the person behind him, and then at the young man with a happy face, and felt sorry for him. No, my head is broken.
"Fight?" the little beggar asked the woman behind her with some reluctance, but the woman snorted and laughed, and her eyes lit up with beautiful colors.
The little beggar was so confused by her smile that the young man covered his head.
"Forget it. Shui Yue shook her head and grabbed the little beggar's wrist to leave, but was stopped by the young man.
"Eh!" he shouted, and the four people on the ground became more painful, his son really has no brains, this is clearly not a situation where he is here to perform, and he still holds on to it, that kid is not easy to mess with.
The eyes of the four shrank together, don't look at the little beggar's whip softly, but it hurts tightly. Four people with eight hands, grabbed a large piece, but instead of grabbing the whip from the little beggar, they each received more than a dozen marks, and their teeth were throbbing.
"Do you know me?" The lewd young man could be considered to understand, and with a vicious gaze, he pulled towards Shui Yue's wrist, but saw a black shadow hit straight and pumped on his arm.
"Whewβpain, pain, pain!" suddenly opened his eyes, and the young man's other hand hurriedly covered his arm and ran around, but it was still a hot pain.
This pain, the young man woke up, and he was a fool if he couldn't figure out the situation anymore, so he retreated to the side and looked at the two of them in a panic, his eyes full of fear.
Fortunately, the fierce and vicious boy with a touch of simplicity on his face was finally willing to go away, so he dared to breathe a sigh of relief, but the clothes were already wet, and when the cold wind blew, he suddenly shrank together, and he wanted to pick up the coat of the little guy on the ground to wear.
The little beggar was still grabbed by the woman, and she didn't let go until she walked far away, "Thank you, son." The woman said that she was a salute again, but she was not as perfunctory as before, although she looked ugly, her smile was still very beautiful.
