Chapter 134: A Play Within a Play (4)

Mo Zhongqing actually had a stomach full of doubts at the moment. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

For example, why did Bai Suyi choose to swallow the heavy Yu Neidan in such a desperate situation at that time? Did she remind Suyi of something without her knowledge.

And the most important thing is whether Chongyu can also "hear" the conversation between the two.

This question is very important, Mo Zhongqing also tried to test it from different angles, but the answer he got was the same "no", if he asked in detail, Bai Suyi kept silent, as if he didn't want to say or "didn't dare to say".

And now, Bai Suyi was also sitting next to Mo Zhongqing on the car board, stretching out his hand to pick up the snowflakes sprinkled on the ground, as the edelweiss in his palm became thicker and thicker, the whole person was stunned and became more and more silent.

Seeing this, Mo Zhongqing couldn't help but say, "I thought that only children would like snowy days." ”

Bai Suyi still didn't reply, and after a while, he suddenly muttered again, "Most of the snow in Yangzhou is wet snow, often mixed with rain, and most of it is dry here, you see, it has not melted in the palm of your hand for so long, and I don't know how long it can be kept." ”

Mo Zhongqing looked at Su Yi with a confused and stunned expression, and then looked at the more and more snow flakes on her palm, frowned, and suddenly approached and blew violently, and the snow on her palm rolled up a white veil and scattered.

Bai Suyi's cheeks pursed slightly, and he glanced at him with disgust, as if to say, "What are you doing".

Mo Zhongqing smiled freely, suddenly opened his big hand and held the already reddened hand of the plain clothes, and rubbed it: "Don't look at it, the snowflakes are beautiful, but most of the stories associated with it are sad." Rest assured, Zhong Qing is not a snowflake, neither melting nor being blown away by the wind. ”

The implication of this remark made Bai Suyi look a little stunned and a little complicated, and looked at the smiling man next to him, and said with a reluctant smile: "Then what if one day I float away like this snowflake?"

Mo Zhongqing smiled, pinched the delicate nose of Bai Suyi with two fingers, and said word by word: "Then I'll chase it, just go and find it, even if it's the end of the world." ”

Listening to Mo Zhongqing's bold words, Bai Suyi laughed heartily, but this smile and smile became a little lonely in a blink of an eye.

Mo Zhongqing saw that his heart was cold, and he hurriedly said: "You haven't been very happy in the past few days, is it because of that ......?"

Bai Suyi shook his head, and suddenly said: "It's nothing, but I suddenly remembered that the weather was so cold and the snow was so big, I don't know where the girl was freezing and starving." ”

Mo Zhongqing saw her change the topic, his heart couldn't help but sink, in his mind, she must be threatened by Chongyu in her body, so she spoke unclearly, and often left half to say half, but this is fine, as long as it does not arouse Chongyu's suspicion, when she arrives at Meilin Xiaozhu, she can't help but do nonsense.

Thinking like this, he comforted her words: "It's okay, that girl is very clever, and she has the silver chain on her body to protect her, don't say that she is an idle person, even if I am not careful, I will fall for her." ”

Mo Zhongqing said this, his eyes couldn't help but look at it, and when he looked at it, he saw several rows of snow looming in front of him.

Mo Zhongqing couldn't help but be surprised: "Look, it seems to be a small village in front, let's go over and take a look!" With that, he tightened the reins and walked quickly, leaving behind a rutted horse trail that was covered with white in an instant.

It looks like the snow is getting heavier again.

The two of them came to the front of the village and found that there was a two-zhang archway at the head of the village.

A red paper lantern is hung on each side of the torii, as if to show people the way.

However, under the ravages of the wind and snow in the dark night, the lights in the two red cages have long been extinguished, and even the exterior of the paper paste seems to be unable to withstand the wind and frost, so it has to stand up to the broken cage body and shake violently in the sudden wind and snow, making a "flutter, flutter" sound.

There was a row of houses on each side of the plaque, and the two led their horses to walk in for a while, and found that the residents had long since rested, and the doors and windows of every house were closed, and the windows were even darker, and no light was reflected in them.

Mo Zhongqing frowned, he didn't want to disturb people's dreams, so he decided to take Bai Suyi forward again.

Fortunately, the emperor lived up to his wishes, and at the end of the village, the two found that in the row of houses on the left, there was a large two-story house with some lights faintly lit.

The two looked at each other with joy, and hurriedly led the horse forward, Mo Zhongqing knocked on the knocker and heard a response from the house: "In the middle of the night, which one doesn't open his eyes?"

Mo Zhongqing was stunned for a moment, and said politely outside the door: "Passerby, the snow is strong and windy outside, and I see that the lights are still on in your place, so I want to come and ask for a place to stay, I don't know if it is convenient to stay at home?"

"It's inconvenient, get out!"

Mo, Bai and the two were stunned for a moment, and they saw an old woman in the room and scolded: "Eh, the old immortal, are you drinking wine or urine?

As he spoke, he heard the sound of a rope in the house, and the light reflecting the window seemed to be lifted, and then he saw that the door was slightly cracked, and he saw an old man about fifty years old with a wrinkled face looking up and down at Mo Zhongqing, and said vigilantly: "Housheng, you are alone?"

Mo Zhongqing pulled Bai Suyi behind him to stand in front of the old man together, and said again: "This is a friend, I am sick, I am afraid that staying outside for a long time will aggravate my condition." ”

The old man came to take a look with a lantern, who would have thought that he only glanced at Bai Su, his hands suddenly trembled, and he said in a lost voice: "Monster!"

As he spoke, he wanted to close the door, but fortunately, Mo Zhongqing's eyes were quick, and he took the first step to block the door with his palm, and then saw that the door frame had been heavily clamped.

Bai Suyi's heart twitched, and he hurriedly reached out to grab Mo Zhongqing, and said hurriedly: "Let go of your hand! ”

Mo Zhongqing turned his head, shook his head, signaled that it was okay, turned his brows slightly, and said in his heart: "How can this old man be so surprised, is this old man an unborn master who can see through the identity of a plain-clothed half-demon at a glance, no, it's not like it." ”

Mo Zhongqing kept his eyes and still smiled: "Old man, this friend of mine is not a monster, are you taking a look?"

The old man stopped talking after hearing this, his eyes turned around, sometimes he looked at Mo Zhongqing and sometimes at Bai Suyi, just when he was making an irregular move, another middle-aged woman in the inner room suddenly tore open the other half of the door, and glanced at Ye, and the two of them pulled half of the old man's ears and shouted: "Are you old and confused! How can there be any monsters! It's freezing outside, and you don't let the guests enter the house quickly, everyone wants to do business like you?"

When the old man heard this, his face snorted coldly, and he muttered in his mouth, and the middle-aged woman didn't care about him, looked at the pretty white plain clothes, and pulled her into the house, and said in a loud voice: "Come on, come on, sit down, sit down, you two sit, don't pay attention to my family, he has been chattering and suspicious lately! I'm afraid that if I didn't go out for a trip, I fell into some evil spirit." ”

The old man saw that the two of them were invited into the house by his mother-in-law with a smile, so he closed the door heavily, and for a while, the sound of wind and snow outside the house disappeared in an instant, as if it became difficult to hear.

Entering the house, the middle-aged woman was busy serving hot tea and greeting the cold and warm, and warmly entertained, in contrast, the old man looked gloomy and gloomy after closing the door, and his face was full of unhappiness and drinking stuffy wine on the side, presumably because the mother-in-law had openly pulled her ears in front of outsiders just now, making herself quite disgraced.

Mo Zhongqing looked at the two of them, and immediately presented a silver ingot and said, "Listen to the eldest lady, this is an inn? ”

When the eldest lady saw this snowflake silver, her face was even more smiling: "Eh, what's the hurry, this small shop in the broken village is not worth so much silver for a night, and although it is an inn, there are not many pedestrians, so I don't use it as an inn for a long time, hehe......"

The eldest lady said this, but her eyes looked at the silver hair, and she saw that her heart was different, Mo Zhongqing smiled and didn't care, and put the silver on the table, "Since this is the case, then these will be the Sichuan capital who will bother the two of you tonight, and it would be better if there were some horse grass to feed the gray horse outside the house." ”

When the eldest lady heard this, she didn't retreat, but hurriedly took the silver from the table, and shouted to the old man: "Do you hear me, what are you doing there! Why don't you go out and pull the little brother's horse into the stable and feed some food?

The uncle was shouted and drunk, but he didn't dare to refute it, and opened the door and slammed it shut, as if this door was his real enemy.

Mo Zhongqing saw that he was a little funny in his heart, he couldn't help but touch his nose and asked, "Auntie, I don't know what kind of boundary this is, how far is it from Jiangling City?"

The eldest lady replied: "This place is called Hongling Village, and Jiangling City is about a day and a half away from here. ”

Mo Zhongqing let out an 'oh', and said casually: "The people here seem to be sleeping extra early?"

The eldest lady smiled mysteriously, and deliberately lowered her voice and said: "Is that not? In this cold day, the men and women are already hot on the kang, and only you two are hanging outside." ”

Mo Zhongqing's face was quite tense when he heard this, and Bai Suyi's cheeks were already sickly flushed, and he couldn't help but blush a little bit shyly and lowered his head timidly. The eldest lady squinted her eyes and boasted: "Yo, little brother, you see that the girl next to you is not only beautiful, but also very tender, this heart is tender, and it is tender in all aspects, so blessed, so blessed." ”

Mo Zhongqing is a man, but when he heard the color in the eldest lady's words one after another, his face couldn't help but turn red, so he quickly nodded and said a word.

In a short time, the uncle had already returned to the house from outside, closed the door with his backhand, and drank silently.
