"Sunset Town, located at the foot of the West Mountain, is the hometown of the sunset, so it is called Sunset. Built next to the mountains, it is mostly covered with forests, with little water and drought tolerance. And the folk customs are simple, work at sunrise, sleep at sunset, take the mountains and forests as peace, live a simple life, and do not covet pleasure......"

In the path of the verdant bamboo forest, a man in green clothes walked alone with a long sword, holding a book in his hand and reciting words in his mouth. Yes, the Tsing Yi guest is just going to be a heroine who travels the rivers and lakes alone. In addition to the "General Guide to Customs" given by my senior brother in my hand, my baggage contains a few clothes, sword books and dry food, as well as a medicine bag, which contains all kinds of herbs and beauty pills stuffed by my junior brother.

I remembered that when I was leaving in the early morning, Master probably went to retreat under the pretext of being afraid of tears, and only my senior brother and junior brother sent me down the mountain. Walking to the foot of the mountain, the little junior brother's eyes were red and he repeatedly told me about the use of those herbs, and the senior brother, who had always been free and easy, also became squirming and twisting. Just as I was thinking about how to say goodbye to them, footsteps came quickly, and a beautiful yellow shadow appeared in front of the three of us.

It's the same as the guy I saw before, with red lips and bright eyes, eyebrows like willow leaves, and pink cheeks against white and snowy skin, beautiful and moving. It's just that the man is wearing a delicate yellow dress, it's not him, it's her.

"Woman," said the girl in the yellow dress, who became much more lively, and said to me first, "I heard that you are going down the mountain today, and I have come to say goodbye to you, and I wish you a smooth journey and a safe return." ”

I nodded and smiled at her, "You look so good in women's clothes." ”

"Really?" she laughed a little embarrassedly.

The senior brother's eyes widened at her, and he couldn't believe it, "You, you, aren't you Yan Wuyi? Why, how can you be a daughter?"

The girl in the yellow dress asked me, "Didn't he guess?"

I waved my hand at her, "Probably." ”

The girl in the yellow dress sighed and turned to her senior brother, "People can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes. Now that I've recovered my daughter's body, don't call me that name, just call me my tenth aunt. ”

"Tenth aunt?" the senior brother muttered.

With the episode of the Ten Aunts, the atmosphere is obviously a lot more lively. I figured it was time to hit the road, so I said goodbye to them again and walked in the direction of the main road. The senior brother and the junior brother also returned to the villa the same way, and the tenth aunt, who was left alone, suddenly shouted: "Wait!"

I turned my head and saw her running to my senior brother, her face flushed, "Merry Valley, I want to follow you!"

I decided to leave later to finish the excitement first, and the little junior brother took a few steps back and watched with a blank face.

The senior brother scratched his ears and asked again, "What did you say?"

Now Shigu has calmed down a lot, she seems to have prepared a set of rhetoric, and her eyes are shining, "Do you still have that little wine cup?"

The senior brother nodded confusedly.

"That wine cup is a token of love, and my father and mother said that it was left by a master when I was born. The master said, whoever this wine cup falls into on the other day will be my wishful husband. Now it's right in your hands. Shigu unfolded a sweet smile, "Merry Valley, you are my wishful husband." I like you, I want to follow you, and from now on, I will go wherever you go. ”

"What a mess. The senior brother had already darkened his face when he heard this, "I am unruly and unruly, and I have read countless women, how can I be bound up by a small wine cup?

"I don't care!" The tenth aunt was really different from ordinary women, and her expression was still not discouraged, "I have seen you reject women, but I am a hundred times more difficult than them." I don't need you to fall in love with me now, you just let me follow you, I will go wherever you go in the future, where there are merry heroes, there are ten heroines!"

"You!" The senior brother seemed to be so angry that he had nothing to say, and shook his hand at Shigu, extremely impatient, "whatever you want." Taking advantage of his unpreparedness, he used his light skills to go in the other direction of the road, and Shigu was at a loss and ran after his figure.

"Merry Valley, you wait—don't you want to get rid of me!"

"Let's catch up with me first—"

......

The voice seemed to still ring in my ears. I closed the book and stuffed it into my arms, and sighed, ""!

The long sigh startled a flock of unknown birds above, flapping their wings and chirping into the sky, and only the sound of my leisurely footsteps was left on this quiet path. On both sides is the endless verdant bamboo forest, the scenery is monotonous, the tenth aunt wishes me a smooth journey, at this time I hope that there will be some trouble on this trail to relieve my boredom.

God heard me. Not long after I walked out again, there was a shouting in front of me.

"Help—"

I saw the bamboo leaves swaying in the forest not far away, and a "blue ball" rolled out with that shout. The "blue group" spread its limbs in a panic, it turned out that he was wearing a lake-blue shirt, and when he rolled down from the forest, he had a lot of bamboo leaves on his body, and his face was bruised, and he looked extremely embarrassed. He hunched his back and ran in my direction, and the more I looked at the figure and face, the more familiar I felt.

I saw him kneeling down in front of me and hugging my legs, and said miserably: "Woman, help, someone is robbing-"

As soon as the words fell, two fat men carrying big knives popped out of the bamboo forest, one with one eye and one with a scarred face, both dressed as robbers.

"I said how can the little short legs run so fast, it turns out that there are rescuers, and it's still a girl!" the one-eyed dragon laughed particularly obscenely.

"Hurry up and hand over the valuable things on your body!" Scarface spat on the big knife, "Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude with this big knife, I'll kill a pair of them if you come to them!"

The shopkeeper hid behind me with his hands on his chest, and stammered, "I told you everything...... I don'......t have any value," he pushed me forward, "Do you know who this is? This is a famous heroine, martial arts, you, if you don't leave...... It's dead!"

Cyclops and Scarface looked at each other and laughed.

"Isn't it just a white girl made of water?" the one-eyed dragon flicked the horizontal meat on his stomach, "rub it in my palm and scatter it hahahahaha!"

"Don't talk nonsense! Get out of your money!"

The shopkeeper trembled, held my hand tightly, and was so frightened that he was about to cry out on his face, "Woman...... You've got to save me......"

I withdrew my hand from his hand and nodded calmly. In fact, my body was already boiling with blood, and when he called me "Woman", my heart was full of Meng Yunsheng's feat of drawing a sword to help a martial arts hero when he saw injustice. Yes, not now, but when!" I gathered my trembling legs, took a deep breath, and yelled.

"Hey, you two, are my heroine's swords ornamental?"

The wind in the bamboo forest stopped, the bamboo leaves stopped shaking, and the two robbers looked at me steadily. At this moment, I pulled out my long sword and pointed it at the sky. At the same time, there was a roar of thunder above the blue sky, a flash of white light, and two large birds fell between me and the two robbers.

There was silence on the path. The one-eyed dragon and Scarface remained stunned and did not move, and after a few moments, they came back to their senses with a loud "ah" cry, looked frightened, and ran away.

The shopkeeper clapped his hands and came out from behind me, looked at me with a look of adoration and said, "The woman is really amazing!"

I put away my sword, wiped the cold sweat from my head, and squeezed out a smile with a little weakness, "Good to say, easy to say." ”

Although my swordsmanship is mediocre, it is not a problem to deal with ordinary thieves and bandits. It's just that this is the first time in my life that I'm fighting alone for someone, and my legs are very weak. Fang Liangjian just wanted to bluff, who would have thought that God would startle a burst of thunder and drop two birds of unknown origin. Anyway, this bird shouldn't have been injured by my sword qi, right?

I saw the shopkeeper squatting on the ground and carefully examining the two dead birds, and I asked him curiously, "Aren't you in the alley, how did you provoke these two people?"

The shopkeeper raised his head, "The honest man asked me to send a letter to our host, and I came out." He said earnestly, "I was walking on the road, and I met these two robbers for no reason, and I was so frightened that I rolled into this bamboo forest." Thanks to the heroine's rescue. ”

The shopkeeper bowed to me again with gratitude, I was really ashamed of this gift, pressed his arm, and saw that his chest was bulging, and guessed: "I saw that you have been protecting your chest just now, and I think what is contained in it is a letter to your host." ”

The shopkeeper nodded, took out the old thick envelope from his arms and showed it to me, "You look carefully." In fact, there is not much important thing in it, it is nothing more than the chicken and dog bits and pieces in the inn. It's just that our owner wants to see it, and honest people have to write it, and poor people pity me, an errand runner. ”

I saw that the old envelope was crookedly written with a few black characters "Dongjia receiving", perhaps seeing that I had been staring at those three words for too long, the shopkeeper cautiously put the letter into his arms, and said a little embarrassedly: "I wrote this word, it is ugly." ”

I comforted him, "It's okay." I just remembered that before I went out, my master also asked me to run errands to deliver letters. ”

The shopkeeper let out a "huh" and rolled his eyes, "Where did your master tell you to send the letter?"

"Thirteen towns of Chang'an. I thought he must not know where it was, and was about to explain, when I heard him say something in passing.

"I know this place, starting from Jinling, walking along the northwest direction, passing through Sunset Town, Qingquan Mountain, Shangdu, Jingshui, Bianzhou, and then riding a good horse to drive the mountain road for two days to see Chang'an, and when you arrive in Chang'an, you will know where the thirteen towns of Chang'an are. I saw his eyes light up, "Since we are all sending letters, why don't we go together?" If there is really something, we can take care of each other." ”

"You're also going to the Thirteen Towns of Chang'an?"

The shopkeeper shook his head, "Our owner is not there, I'm going to Shangdu." The legendary city of greed, merchants, are all going there......" he looked fascinated.

"What's the matter, are we going to be a partner?"

I thought for a moment, "Okay, a partner is a partner." ”

Since he is going to partner on the road, it is not good to always call "little two and little two", so I asked him first: "What is your name?"

"I have no name, no surname, no father and no mother, and my surname is Hu. It's better for you to call me Xiaoer, Hu Xiaoer. ”

I nodded, and said, "My name is ......."

"I know," Hu Xiaoer quickly took over and said, "Heroines don't leave names, names are very troublesome, you like others to call you Heroine." ”

I wondered, "How do you know?"

"I always walk through the alleys for ten miles to bring tea and water, and some words that I don't want to hear drift into my ears. ”

"And what else do you know?"

"Hey!" Hu Xiaoer raised his eyebrows, "I also know that you have a senior brother named Merry Valley, a famous merry hero in the rivers and lakes, and your master is Mo Shangsang of Mo Shang Villa." The man who drinks with you is called Meng Yunsheng, a storyteller. Every time he tells a story, there will be a lot of female customers in the alleys, and the business is very good. Ten miles of wine through the alleys, your favorite drink is worm second wine, as well as the pork seller Long Dahan and the white-faced swordsman Liu Slender are also ......"

Hu Xiaoer talked endlessly, with brilliance on his face, a bit like when Meng Yunsheng was telling a story. It's just that I see that his eyes are eyes, his nose is his nose, and his mouth is his mouth, but on the same face, he is not as outstanding as Meng Yunsheng, nor is he as handsome as his senior brother, but it looks a little ordinary. Only when he laughed, two small pear vortices appeared at the corners of his mouth, which was particularly attractive, and he couldn't help but feel a little closer.

Probably seeing that I hadn't spoken for a long time, Hu Xiaoer stopped talking and asked me suspiciously, "Why are you staring at me like this, I have flowers on my face?"

"No, no," I swallowed, "you laugh a lot...... It's quite pleasing. ”

"Really?" Hu Xiaoer cracked his mouth and laughed, "The owner took me in at that time, and he said the same. ”
