"Steamed buns! hot steamed buns······" Freshly baked baked biscuits······"" Rock sugar gourd ......"

Fu Ning carried roast chicken in his arms, carried a paper bag, and chewed on the baked cake as he walked. This city is really different from the mountains, in the sect coarse tea and light rice, there is no oil and water, how can there be these food tastes.

"Senior brother is unjust! Three taels of silver wanted me to make a pot of wine for him, but fortunately I was clever and kept two taels, otherwise I was afraid that I wouldn't even be able to eat a roast chicken. Fu Ning snorted and muttered proudly.

From time to time, there are entertainers performing on the street, which makes a lot of applause, Fu Ning is in and out a few times, and he is extremely flexible, how can there be clumsiness that a fat person should have. This kid is also a scoundrel, he is very diligent when he joins in the fun, and the cheers have never stopped, and when he arrives at people to beg for money, he slips faster than a rabbit, and makes people stare dryly.

Fu Ning shuttled through the crowd, enjoying the bustling city, and forgot the hour for a while.

"Wow, it's amazing, little brother, you ······"

In a trance, someone seemed to pat him on the shoulder, and when he looked back, it was a vast sea of people and strange eyes.

Fu Ning shrugged his shoulders and laughed at himself for a while, a stranger in a foreign land, how could anyone take care of him. A trace of loneliness came to his heart, and suddenly extinguished the playfulness in his heart, Fu Ning shook his head and returned to his heart. But at this moment, someone suddenly grabbed the corner of his clothes from behind, almost causing him to stumble. Fu Ning was not angry but happy: "Senior brother?"

When I looked back, I saw a skinny old beggar.

"Old man, what's wrong?" Fu Ning wondered.

"It's amazing, you have a spiritual light spewing out from the heavenly spirit cover, and you have a body of horizontal training muscles and bones at a young age, you are a martial arts wizard once in a hundred years, if you ......" The old man gasped heavily, trembling and took out an oily book from his arms, and he was about to stuff it into Fu Ning's hand.

Fu Ning hurriedly jumped away, angry and laughing: "Old man, I respect you as an old man, and I don't care about you, but please don't fool me as a fool." ”

The pedestrians around showed different colors and bypassed the two.

The old beggar saw Fu Ning's hidden anger, his face turned pale for a while, hesitated for a moment, and suddenly fell to his knees suddenly, and bowed to Fu Ning: "Please pity the young man, just reward me with a few taels of silver, I am really in trouble!"

Fu Ning was still dissatisfied in his heart, but when he saw the old man making such a move, he immediately became at a loss. He hurriedly stepped forward to help the old beggar up: "Old man, don't do this, get up quickly." ”

The old beggar did not follow, still kneeling on the ground.

Fu Ning was embarrassed for a while, and said, "Why don't you look for someone else, I really don't have any money!"

"Young man, don't tiger me, you can enter the 'Dragon Rest Building' to drink, and you still have no money!" The old beggar looked serious.

"Dragon's Rest Building······ Really rich······"

"That's where the emperor drank wine, so I'm embarrassed to go in if I don't have any money······"

"I didn't see ······"

"I heard that the bartenders there are all at one table, and they are always at your disposal······

Fu Ning's face was as black as ink.

"I really don't have any money······"

Listening to the surrounding discussions, Fu Ning felt a headache. After hesitating for a moment, he groped in his arms, and for a long time, he found a few copper plates. In the disdainful eyes of everyone, Fu Ning stuffed the copper plate into the old beggar's hand, turned his head and was about to leave, but he felt that the corners of his clothes were tight again, so he had to turn around.

"It's gone. Fu Ning looked bitter.

The old beggar stared at Fu Ning for a long time, and when he saw that Fu Ning didn't look like he was lying, he reached out and handed over the oily book: "Your book." ”

"Forget it, you can keep this book, I don't want it. Fu Ning just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible at this time, how could he dare to have more to do with this person, so he hurriedly excused himself.

The beggar's face changed when he heard this, and he blew his beard up: "How can I, Yang Lao'er, be a person who has rebelled! Since I have sold it to you, how can I take it back, this is the way of business." ”

Fu Ning felt even more bitter in his heart, quickly stuffed the book into his arms, said no, and fled in dismay. The beggar did not stop him and let him go.

After this toss, the sky has already darkened, the street vendors are gradually decreasing, and the night market in the distance begins to light up with sporadic lights, attracting a continuous flow of people, and the sound of the sheng song can be heard a few streets away.

"Hey······"

Fu Ning sighed lightly and walked out of Mingcheng.

Fu Ning walked quickly in the sycamore forest, and rushed to the place where he and his senior brother settled down during the day, and the cry of the night bird "cooing" was heard in his ears from time to time, which was very infiltrating. He couldn't help but feel creepy, so he lifted the gourd and took two sips to strengthen his courage. When the liquor went down, he suddenly sweated profusely, and his nose and eyes shrank in a heap: "Good wine, haha! ”

Throwing the gourd twice, Fu Ning retreated timidly at this time, and couldn't help but think about it. He tied the gourd around his waist, pricked up his ears to distinguish it, and when he was young, he suddenly smiled and ran into the darkness. After a few breaths, he stopped, and then he heard the sound of "whooshing" water not far away, and he leaned down to touch it, and after a while, a small stream appeared in his field of vision.

Fu Ning was overjoyed, hurriedly stepped forward, leaned over and picked up a handful of water to "goo" on his lower abdomen, and suddenly felt refreshed. After eating the baked cake buns for a day, the mouth was already dry and smoking, and at this moment the "nectar" fell, which was naturally comfortable. After he finished drinking, he picked up another handful, poured it on his face wantonly, wiped his face and body at will, the night breeze blew gently, Fu Ning shivered, it was not cool.

After drinking to his heart's content, Fu Ning immediately untied the gourd, pulled out the cork and filled half a bottle of stream water, he shook the gourd, tied it to his waist, and sat on the ground. The autumn night is slightly cool, the forest is quiet, and occasionally the leaves fall to the ground, making a soft sound, which is very pleasant for a while.

After resting for a while, Fu Ning calculated the time, guessing that the senior brother was only afraid that he was in a hurry, and if he went back later, he would inevitably be beaten fat, so he got up and patted his buttocks, intending to leave.

But at this moment, a sparkling fire suddenly lit up in the forest on the side, and the sound of people's voices and horses' hooves was heard. Fu Ning was curious, stopped, found a big tree and squatted down, with a pair of ears erect straighter than a rabbit.

As the voices approached, the firelight became brighter and brighter, Fu Ning became vigilant and moved behind the tree again. After a few moments, the crowd came to the stream and stopped walking, as if to drink water and rest. Fu Ning waited for a while, and some couldn't hold it back, so he poked his head out from behind the tree, and when he looked around, he saw that there were crowds of people, and each straddle horse was even more than a dozen of them, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

"What are these people doing in this forest at night?"

"Could it be that the senior brother is in a hurry, and what kind of mess has happened?"

Fu Ning cowered under the tree, carefully hiding his body in the shadows, intending to take a look. As he was pondering, a vicious gasp suddenly sounded from behind him, close at hand. Fu Ning's heart jumped, even if he wanted to dodge, it was too late, he only felt a sudden pain in the back of his neck, but it was two rows of sharp teeth that clamped him, and he was about to bite off his neck. Fu Ning was shocked, couldn't care less, screamed, raised his hand and patted behind him.

"Who?!"

"Miss Protection!"

"Who is sneaking around here and not daring to show people?!"

When the crowd in front heard the sound, they immediately exploded and scolded one after another, and when they saw Fu Ning, they immediately rushed up. After a short time, Fu Ning was surrounded by a group.

Fu Ning stood alone in the crowd, a cold sweat sticking to Mai, only to feel a chill behind him.

Glaring viciously at the wolf dog lying on the ground and barking constantly, Fu Ning hurriedly raised his hands to show harmlessness. After a while, the crowd suddenly quieted, everyone dismounted, and looked at a strong man with a black scarf on his head, Fu Ning immediately understood that this person was only afraid that it was the head of this group of people, and after thinking about it, he hurriedly clasped his fists with both hands and waved at the strong man: "Strong man, boy Fu Ning, people from Pingyang, want to go to the southern province, pass by the treasure land today......"

"Uncle Yun! This pariah injured Peng Peng!"

Fu Ning originally expected that this must be a group of bandits, and maybe he could fool the past, so he had to get close to him. But at this moment, a coquettish shout suddenly came from the crowd, and he was brutally interrupted.

Fu Ning looked around, only to see a commotion in the crowd, and gradually split a way, and after a while, a woman dressed in red and holding a long whip rode out.

Looking at it, this woman is about twenty-eight years old, with a double tail braid on her head, yellow appliqués on her temples, a delicate nose and eyes, and a very cute end. At this moment, this woman was obviously extremely dissatisfied with Fu Ning, her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, her lips were slightly curled, and she raised her pretty face.

Fu Ning was still looking at the woman who suddenly appeared, but when he saw that she actually threw a pair of watery apricot eyes at him, his heart and liver suddenly jumped at the touch of his gaze, his face turned red, and he didn't dare to look directly for a while. In a panic, I only heard the sound of drawing a knife around me, so I was startled, and quickly raised my head, but I didn't dare to look at the woman, so I could only say with a fluttering look: "Girl, I'm afraid there is a misunderstanding in this matter......

"Misunderstanding?"

"It's dark, and you meet your dog here by chance, Xu was frightened, your dog accidentally bit it, and it was also anxious to ······ next."

"What kind of misunderstanding is this! If Peng Peng wants to bite you, you should suffer it and not resist. You scared it and didn't say anything, but you dared to hurt it, what a big dog's guts!" The woman was very arrogant, and when she heard this, she sneered, and raised her whip to whip it.

Fu Ning didn't dodge when he saw this, he just said that this girl was joking, and he didn't care, but he didn't expect that this whip was actually whipped on his body, and he felt that his back was burning like fire for a while, and he twitched in pain, and he couldn't help but be angry. was about to scold his mother, but when he saw that the woman was whipped again, he immediately raised his eyebrows, and quickly jumped away, and the whip shadow fell to the ground, rolling up the dust several feet high, obviously using internal strength.

Fu Ning secretly sighed and was angry, so he wanted to fight back, but at this moment, the strong man with a black scarf spoke again: "Miss, it's better to forget about this matter, I think this little brother is also an unintentional mistake, since you have already given him a whip, why bother with him more, Peng Peng is seriously injured at the moment, it is better to hurry back to the city for treatment." ”

Fu Ning didn't want to easily form a grudge with these people, and at this moment, seeing that this person seemed to be peaceful, he stopped what he was doing and looked at the woman.

"That's not good! Uncle Yun, how can you be safe if you hurt my Liang family's dog, if you don't punish it, won't people look down on us. "Miss doesn't follow.

Uncle Yun shook his head: "Miss, you have to be forgiving and forgiving, don't fall into other people's tongues and say that our Liang family is cruel." ”

The young lady chuckled: "If you don't take his life, you will." ”

Uncle Yun was overjoyed and wanted to agree, but at this moment, the young lady said, "Peng Peng is injured, let this untouchable hunt for him for a day tomorrow, and I will spare his dog's life." ”

When Uncle Yun heard this, his face changed greatly, and he secretly said that it was not good, so he was about to open his mouth to persuade him, but at this moment, he heard a loud shout suddenly sounded: "Bastard!

It turned out that Fu Ning saw that the more this woman talked, the more outrageous it became, and in the end she planned to treat herself as a dog, and Shi Ke could not be humiliated, so he was furious and pulled out two short knives from his arms.

The guards around were shocked when they saw this, and they couldn't care about much, so they raised their knives and slashed at them. Fu Ning stepped forward with a horizontal knife and fought hard, and for a moment he was brave and fierce, and no one could get close.

Uncle Yun on the side wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by the woman's wave, and in desperation, he had to protect the woman away from the battle circle.

"Sure enough, it's a white-eyed wolf, I don't know what to do!" The young lady stood with her hands in her hands, glanced at Uncle Yun, and smiled coldly. Uncle Yun's face was ugly and he was silent.

Fu Ning was already dissatisfied, but when he heard this again, he was so angry that he suddenly became chaotic, and if he didn't pay attention, he was stabbed several times in a row, and the blood did not stop.

The enemy was outnumbered, Fu Ning was attacked by the enemy on his back, and he couldn't help but be anxious, but he saw that the guards retreated and came up again, and they actually planned to use wheel warfare to kill his fierceness. After a few rounds, he looked around, gradually retreating, but he rushed left and right, but he couldn't find everyone's flaws. After a long time, his arms began to weaken, Fu Ning gradually fell into the downwind, and when he was in a hurry, he suddenly touched a hard object in his arms, his expression moved, and after thinking about it, his eyes immediately lit up.

Blocking the slashed sword again, Fu Ning made a few false moves, and when everyone returned to the knife to block, he quickly took out two hidden weapons in his arms and threw them out. Seeing this, everyone was taken aback and retreated, Fu Ning was overjoyed, and quickly found a vacancy and rushed out of the crowd. When the guards reacted, they immediately scolded, and they were about to raise knives to cut, and they were dark for a while, not distinguishing the sun and the moon. Fu Ning was sweating profusely, and he didn't have time to discern the direction, so he ran all the way and fled in a hurry.

As the minutes ticked by, the moon slowly rose, and in the blink of an eye, it hung horizontally in the sky. The nightbirds were still chirping, but they were no longer lonely, and the woods were noisy and the firelight was wandering around. Fu Ning was still circling in the forest, and the pursuers fell behind him slightly, but he could not get rid of it.

He didn't dare to go to the place where he stayed, for fear of affecting his senior brother, but he fled all the way, and his wounds did not have time to recover, and he had already lost a lot of blood, so he was afraid that something would happen sooner or later. Sure enough, after another moment, Fu Ning suddenly stumbled and fell to the ground, dizzy and miserable.

He struggled on the ground several times, and found that he was no longer able to stand up, so he could only compromise: "Life and death are fate, and wealth is in the sky." With the last of his strength, he moved himself into a pile of bushes, and fell down with bated breath, no longer moving.

"What about people?" The pursuers arrived in a blink of an eye, but they lost Fu Ning's trace for a while, and they were suspicious and wandered around.

Fu Ning secretly complained bitterly, and he didn't dare to breathe.

The forest was noisy, and the voices of people and dogs barked one after another, near and far, Fu Ning was worried and lived like a year.

After a while, the crowd gradually dispersed, and everyone didn't seem to find Fu Ning's hiding place, and there was a faint tendency to leave. Fu Ning was hopeful and began to pray secretly. Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long, and it didn't take long for the voices to gather again, and looking in the direction, it was the bush jungle where he was staying.

"I knew that I promised the femme fatale, but I don't know if it's too late. Fu Ning sighed secretly and had no choice but to accept his fate.

The footsteps were approaching, Fu Ning's heart was like ashes, and he remembered the woman's methods, and he was about to bite his tongue and commit suicide when he felt cold in his liver and gallbladder. But at this moment, a shout suddenly came from a distance, and only the footsteps were heard in unison, and they no longer approached. After another moment, the crowd gathered the hounds and dispersed.

Fu Ning's heart was relieved, fatigue hit, and he fainted.
