Chapter 32: Encounter (3)
Obviously, the woman in black did not regard Liu Tiandong as a good person, the woman's willow eyebrows were upside down, her apricot eyes were round, and the cold air was angry and angry, and the sword of the long sword in her hand also pointed slightly at Liu Tiandong.
In the face of this kind of posture, Liu Tiandong must quickly show his innocence in order to clear up the misunderstanding, just say what and how to say it? Could it be that he just told the woman that Liu Tiandong is a person from the future more than 300 years later, that he does not belong to this era, and that he is a time traveler? Then, tell the woman that there is a monster hidden in the cave over there?
"That's easy, no brains, but how could she believe what I say?"
"Well, you can't say that, you can't. Liu Tiandong calculated countermeasures in his heart.
"Sneaky, he must not be a good person, if he doesn't answer, don't blame me for being polite!" Seeing that Liu Tiandong didn't answer, coupled with her strange behavior, the girl in black concluded that she had met a villain, so she couldn't help but raise her sword and stabbed at Liu Tiandong's heart.
In this case, no matter how dull Liu Tiandong is, he knows the truth that danger is imminent, and he said in his heart, "Girl, you are really an anxious child!"
Liu Tiandong shouted "oops" in his mouth, and at the same time, he jumped to the side, fortunately, he was able to dodge the stabbing sword, but as soon as his feet landed, before he could catch his breath, he saw the girl's sword light flashing and stabbing horizontally, the speed was too fast, and it was too late for him to dodge again, so he had to gamble on the flesh and bones of his body, and fell directly to the ground, "plop" A body smashed on the ground without any protection, but fortunately, there were no hard stones on the ground, so Liu Tiandong almost fainted.
Liu Tiandong grinned and curled up on the ground, so painful that he couldn't even hum, and he felt that all the bones in his body seemed to be broken.
"Hmph, that's fast! But where are you running now?"
"Don't, don't do it, I, I'm really not a bad person, bad person, can you, listen to me, listen to my explanation!" Liu Tiandong said weakly.
"Explain, what's the explanation?" the woman asked, but instead of continuing her attack, she stopped and pointed the tip of her sword at the man lying on the ground.
"I, I'm not a bad person, but lost. Liu Tiandong hurriedly took advantage of this gap to explain, and at the same time slowly got up from the ground again.
"What are you doing, why did you run into this mountain, look at your strange dress, non-farmer, non-businessman, non-official and non-bandit, what the hell are you doing? Tell the truth!" the woman didn't believe it at all, and asked coldly.
"My name is Liu Tiandong, yes, I'm a bookseller, you know, a bookseller? Liu Tiandong collected some information in his mind and said that he did open a small bookstore before, so it was reasonable to call himself a bookseller.
"Because I wanted to buy a batch of goods, I was busy and missed the time, but when I was camping, I was attacked by a wild beast, and I crashed into here in a panic, and I lost my belongings and got lost, so I made such a mess. I, what I said is true, girl, please believe it!" Liu Tiandong explained again, of course, the following words were all made up by him, and he could only make up so much nonsense for a while, as for whether the woman would believe that Liu Tiandong had no bottom at all.
In order to further express his honesty, after Liu Tiandong said these words, he did not avoid the woman's gaze, and showed a pitiful appearance as much as possible.
After hearing this, the woman in black nodded, looked up and down for a while, and then said: "Well, you talk weirdly, but now if you look closely, it doesn't look like a slippery head, let's just believe it for the time being." With that, the woman put the sword back into its scabbard.
"Hehe, it looks like the lie I made up has finally worked. ”
Liu Tiandong just breathed a sigh of relief, but the woman turned her words and asked again: "That's right, you said that your surname is Liu, and you have encountered the attack of a wild beast, so let me ask you, what kind of beast attacked you, and have you ever seen its appearance?"
This question stunned Liu Tiandong, and said in his heart: "That's right! I just thought about getting by, but I ignored how to explain it if I was asked about it next." ”
"When, it was too dark at that time, I, I only vaguely felt that the beast seemed to be similar to a human, and it was still standing on its legs, and it could let out a terrible roar, but the most terrifying thing was that it had a pair of blood-red eyes......" Liu Tiandong really didn't know whether to admire his ability to make up nonsense, and he actually opened his crown and Li Dai to depict the situation of seeing Cheng Feng in the cave as a beast that didn't exist at all, and described it as having a nose and eyes.
After hearing these words, the woman in black frowned together, and her expression became more serious.
"Well, it seems that what you said is true, and you met that brute. Count your fate, and you will be unscathed in the face of a catastrophe. Then, I heard her say something faintly.
"What?" Liu Tiandong almost blurted out in surprise, because he didn't expect that there really was any beast, and it was the same as his description.
"What's wrong with you?" asked the woman with a puzzled look at Liu Tiandong, who had a stunned expression.
Liu Tiandong also immediately reacted to his mistake, so he touched the back of his head and replied: "Oh! I, I just still have palpitations, that's why I lost my temper." ”
The woman nodded, didn't ask any more questions, but put her hand on the pergola and kept looking into the distance, Liu Tiandong thought that she must be looking for the so-called beast, and probably wouldn't take care of herself anymore, right?
Liu Tiandong tiptoed around the woman, preparing to burrow into the grove on the side and slip away, because he didn't know how many lies he would have to make up if he stayed any longer.
"You say, where are you going?" Liu Tiandong turned around, and as soon as he stepped out of one leg, he heard the voice of the woman behind him ask.
"Obviously she was asking me, and it seemed that it was impossible to sneak away. ”
"Oh, I, I'm going, going to Luoyang. Liu Tiandong said casually, but after saying this, he regretted it, and he didn't know why he said the name of the place.
"Luoyang, isn't that very far? There are thousands of mountains and rivers, are you planning to go there on foot?" the woman asked again.
"Far away, far away?" Hearing the woman's words, Liu Tiandong was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized, thanks to the woman's inadvertent words that woke up the person in the dream.
"Yes, although I know that it is now in the Qing Dynasty more than 300 years ago, but I don't know where I am at all, and I don't know the specific location at all, and I have no direction to go to Luoyang? ”
So, Liu Tiandong dispelled the idea of leaving secretly, turned around slowly, and found that the woman was still looking into the distance with her back to him, it turned out that she didn't notice Liu Tiandong's actions just now.
"I, I take the liberty of asking, here, what is this place?"
The woman in black ignored Liu Tiandong's question, waited for a while before turning back at him and asking, "What's the place, don't you know?"
"That's right! I claim to be a bookseller who buys goods, how can I not know where I am? Isn't this a joke?" Liu Tiandong secretly stuck out his tongue, he was indeed too reckless.
"Oh, this, me, I got lost in a moment's panic, and I may have strayed too far from the main road to find my bearings. Excuse me, is there a village or town ahead?" he replied prevaricatingly, and said in his heart, "This woman is not very old, but her mind is very thorough. ”
"Forget it, you always talk strangely, and it's estimated that you're scared by that brute. Let me tell you, this place is called Wuzunling, haven't you heard of the 100,000 mountains? There are mountains within a hundred miles of this place, and even the nearest town of Ji'an is seventy or eighty miles away. Why don't I have a proposal, even if this girl is a good person to the end, it is better to compensate for the almost accidental injury with you just now, in short, I will escort you to Ji'an Town, how about it?"
