Chapter 129: The Past (19)

The man was vigilant in his heart, leading the girl to walk slowly on the street, with a trace of worry in his heart, but don't let something bad happen.

This place is weird, the father and daughter have been walking for a long time, but they haven't seen anyone!

All the houses are wide open, but people don't know where they have gone, but everywhere is still clean, and it is not at all like people have been away for too long.

Whenever he passed by the inn during the walk, the man would walk in with his daughter, but each family shouted several times without the slightest response, so he had to take his daughter out again.

The two of them were hungry and thirsty now, but there was not a single place where water could be bought, and the shop with the sign of a teahouse and tavern was not operated at all, but it was very clean and tidy, and it did not look like no one was taking care of it.

If he couldn't find anyone, there was no way to rest and eat, so the man had to take his daughter along the wide bluestone road in the town and continue to walk to the middle of the town.

The street was very hot, and the bluestone pavement was very hot, and the little girl said to her father, "Dad, the soles of my feet are so hot, I can't stand it."

As she spoke, her feet twisted around on the ground, and she couldn't help but jump up, but it was still very hot when she fell, and she couldn't stand up at all.

Hearing her say this, looking at her actions, the man understood in his heart that it was too hot on the road, and her feet were tender, so he would naturally not be able to stand it. This kind of bluestone road is more likely to be hot than the loess road.

Carry her on your back, you have to die of distress if your feet are burned.

Thinking of this, he said, "Girl, daddy will carry you on his back, and your feet will not be hot", and the man said and bent down, "Come, come up".

"Dad, I don't. You have a wound on your leg, how can I let you carry it, I don't. ”

"Girl, hurry up, or I'll burn your feet in a while."

The girl still refused, standing still, and the man said, "If you don't come up again, I won't teach you to read."

When the girl heard this, she climbed up and put her arms around her father's neck.

The man carried the little girl on his back, his steps were particularly unsteady, but he held on, moving extremely slowly, every step he took, it hurt him to grin his teeth, he couldn't bear to make a sound, carrying his daughter, and gradually walking away on the hot bluestone road.

The girl lay on her father's back, looked around with her eyes, and said to her father with doubts in her eyes: "Dad, why is there no one on this street, and I haven't seen anyone in this town since I came in, what's the matter?"

The man whispered, "No, it's too hot now, everyone must be resting and going to escape the heat."

After listening to the girl, she returned: "Ao".

The man is actually not sure what happened, maybe it was the beasts, demons, birds or the scattered people who cultivated immortals who destroyed the people in this town, but they were really destroyed, and the people were already dead.

It's not like nothing like this has happened before, I have seen entire villages and towns sucked up all their vitality by the cultivators, and they won't even leave ashes, and their methods are extremely cruel and vicious.

You can't tell your daughter about these cruel things, she is still too young, and she will definitely be frightened to know such things, and it will not be good if she leaves a shadow in her heart.

I only hope that my daughter can be safe and secure for the rest of her life, and it is better not to participate in what the immortal cultivator asks, but I hope she can have a stable life and be content.

I don't know how long I walked, but the man carried his daughter on his back to an arched bridge.

The bridge has a wide deck and a semi-arc arch above the water, which just forms a circle with the shadow in the water. The railings of the bridge are carved with the heads of various animals, all of which are lifelike.

At the head of the bridge stands a large stone monument with the inscription: Mandarin Duck Bridge.

The girl pointed to the stele and asked her father, "What is this?"

"Mandarin Duck Bridge, the stone tablet is engraved with Mandarin Duck Bridge", the man stopped, put his daughter off his back, and told her the name of the bridge.

The girl looked at the stele and ran to the stele and touched it with her hand, but she was so short that her hand could only touch the lowest part of the bridge at the bottom.

"Dad, hug me and let me remember this word. I also want to touch the little animals on the bridge, you see, it's so beautiful."

"Okay, let you touch", the man with a smile in his voice, walked to his daughter and picked her up, the girl's hand touched the word little by little, after touching it several times, the girl said happily: "Mandarin duck, Mandarin duck, it turns out that these are the two words Mandarin duck", speaking of this, she raised her head, and asked her father with bright eyes, "Daddy, what does the mandarin duck look like?"

The man replied with a smile, "Mandarin duck, it's very beautiful, a bit like a chicken, much more beautiful than the feathers on the chicken, it can float, well, Dad can't describe it well, you will know it when you see it later." Girl, my father is very thirsty, let's not touch the animals on the bridge first, go to drink water under the bridge first, and then rest and rest, okay?"

"Okay, let's go drink water," said the girl, who got out of her father's arms, took him by the hand, and went with him to the edge of the water under the bridge, and found a big rock and sat down.

The girl smiled happily at the clear river water, shallow dimples appeared on her cheeks, she smiled and said: "Dad, this water is very good, you hurry up and drink some water, let me drink all the water on the road, your mouth is all rotten, hurry up and drink some water", the girl said and looked at her father's right leg and reminded her father, "By the way, Dad, let's take a look at your wound first!"

The man took out a small bamboo tube from the burden he was carrying behind him, scooped up the water and handed it to his daughter, "You drink first."

The girl received it in her hand, took the bamboo tube and lowered her head to drink water, and in this gap, the man rolled up his pants, revealing the wound on his calf.

The wound on his leg was quite deep, and the white bone inside could be seen, and the wound had been completely cracked at this time, about two fingers wide, and a faint amount of blood flowed out, and it was obvious that the wound had been around for a while.

He paid attention to his daughter's gaze, directly picked up the water and washed the blood off the wound, then quickly put down his pants and said to his daughter, "I have seen the wound, it's fine, it's okay to walk for so long."

It was too hot on this day, so after drinking water, we rested under this bridge first.

When it's cool, the people of the town will definitely come out. At that time, we will look for a place to eat, and then we will find a place to stay."

The girl handed the bamboo tube to her father, nodded and said, "Okay, Dad, I will listen to you, and you can do what you say."

After the man drank the water, he put the bamboo tube in it, let his daughter lean on his arms, put his arms around her, and sat on the stone next to each other.

The bridge blocked out the sun, and although there was no wind, it was cool, and the girl fell asleep with her father in a few moments.

The man touched his sleeping daughter's bald head, looked up at the sky in the distance, it was very blue and clear, this day was very beautiful, but he pretended to be uneasy and deeply panicked in his heart, and he didn't have the heart to look at it twice.

After more than three years of changing places of residence, he already felt extremely tired, and he had no idea what the future would hold for him and his children.

How long this town will be able to live is still unknown.

I don't have much money left, so what if it was still like the old town.

Alas, the man sighed, pulled the hem of his daughter's skirt, and held the child in a daze, not sleepy at all. Take a hundred plating to read the latest chapter of "The Strongest Relationship System Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
