Chapter 90: Taniguchi
Seeing this situation, Shen Xinyi felt even more embarrassed, and in a hurry, she said in a loud voice: "You, are you forcing this senior sister?" Ling'er hurriedly said: "Senior sister, don't misunderstand, we don't mean to persecute senior sister." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info just hopes that my sister can see the feelings of our sincere pleading, and accept that heart. Shen Xinyi said: "What if this senior sister refuses to accept it?" Ling'er replied: "If the senior sister insists on refusing to accept that mental method, then I can only kneel for a long time!" Shen Xinyi heard this, and the embarrassment dissipated, followed by an extremely cold face.
"Well, since you like to kneel, then kneel. As for this mental method, I'm afraid you will never see it again!" As soon as Shen Xinyi finished speaking, she tore the mental method in her hand to shreds.
The move came very suddenly, and it was really unexpected. Seeing this, Ling'er and the others couldn't help but feel shocked, even if they were dissatisfied, they could only be silent and bear it silently.
At this moment, I suddenly heard a person shouting loudly: "Shen Xinyi, I have something to say in Pu Luochen!" When the sound arrived, the person had already appeared in front of Shen Xinyi and the others. Who else could it be? Naturally, there was no doubt that Pu was in the dust.
Shen Xinyi couldn't help but be a little surprised, and said, "Pu Yunyang, you didn't leave?" Pu Luochen said coldly: "Of course I won't leave! If I leave, I'm afraid I won't see how you tore off the mental method written below!" Shen Xinyi said nonchalantly: "So what? Could it be that you want to force my Bixiu Palace disciples to learn the martial arts of your Shushan faction?" Pu Luochen said: "Don't dare!" Pu just wants to tell you, even if you tear up this mental method, Pu can write another copy, Pu Mou wants to see how many more copies you want to tear off!" Shen Xinyi heard this, and also became stubborn, and said loudly: "Okay! You write a copy, this girl will tear up a copy, and you don't want to keep a piece of your mental method!" Pu Luochen held back his anger, nodded heavily, and said: "Okay, very good, Shen Xinyi, I finally see through you! You have never believed in you, you have always been suspicious!" When Shen Xinyi heard this, she was taken aback, and said with some hesitation: "Pu Yunyang, you, what, why did you say this?" Pu Luochen smiled and asked rhetorically: "Why did you say this?" Shen Xinyi, why did I Pu Luochen say such a thing, you should know very well in your heart, right?" Shen Xinyi immediately replied: "This girl doesn't know what you're talking about!" Pu Luochen couldn't help laughing again after hearing this. Laughing helplessly. As soon as the laughter ended, I heard Pu Luochen speak: "Shen Xinyi, Pu knows that because of your sister's matter, you have always been resentful of Pu, and Pu is also trying his best to find a way to make up for it." Pu stabbed himself, and sacrificed the unique method of the Shushan faction, the reason why he did these things was to make up for the debt to your sister, but why did you refuse to give Pu this opportunity to make amends? If Miss Shen really can't let go of the resentment in her heart, then Pu can only leave, lest Miss Shen be so embarrassed!"
Shen Xinyi's heart began to tremble, and her pretty face turned red. Even so, Shen Xinyi still put on a casual appearance and said, "Pu Yunyang, you are too worried. This girl is unwilling to accept your gift of heart for another reason, not because of my sister's business!" Pu Luochen said coldly: "It doesn't matter what the reason is. Pu can see that you and I have old grudges, and working together will only cause more trouble, rather than this, it is better for you and me to go our own way, Pu Mou will leave!" Shen Xinyi was stunned for a moment, and then ordered Ling'er on the side: "Ling'er, go outside the door and take a look, has Pu Yunyang left?" After Ling'er heard the order, she nodded yes, and then walked towards the door. Ling'er walked out of the store, glanced outside a few times, and then returned to Shen Xinyi and replied, "Senior Sister Hui, Pu Luochen has left the Honglu shop and went to the city gate. When Shen Xinyi heard this, she couldn't help but sigh, and said to herself: "Strange! What did he do at the city gate? Could it be that he was going to enter the city? But...... What did he enter the city for?" Pu Luochen's actions were indeed incomprehensible, in addition to Shen Xinyi, Ling'er on the side was also thinking about this matter.
Ling'er has always been shrewd and flexible, and she can always help Shen Xinyi successfully complete the tasks assigned by the palace master. Therefore, every time Shen Xinyi goes out to run errands, she likes to take her with her. If you encounter any tricky things, you often consult Ling'er's opinion. After a long time, Ling'er also began to take the initiative to think about what Shen Xinyi was worried about, and sometimes, Shen Xinyi hadn't figured out the things yet, but Ling'er had already explained the mystery.
I only heard Ling'er say in a speculative tone: "Tell Senior Sister, according to Ling'er, there is no need to care too much about Pu Luochen's entry into the city. Shen Xinyi looked at Ling'er with some puzzlement and asked, "How can you see it?" Ling'er replied: "Senior sister, the reason why Pu Luochen left was only because we were still in this small shop, and after he left the shop, he had nowhere to go, so he had to go into the city. As long as we walk on the front foot, he will come back after the dust falls!" After Ling'er's explanation, Shen Xinyi suddenly opened his mouth and said: "That's right! He is now taking refuge outside, he will definitely not run around, and there is no place for him to stay in the city, when the time comes, he can only obediently return to this thatched shop!" Ling'er nodded and said, "What Senior Sister said is very true!" After the doubts in her heart were solved, Shen Xinyi breathed a sigh of relief and said: "That is the case, then we will leave immediately! lest some people fall into the streets!" Ling'er and the others nodded yes, and the group quickly left the Honglu shop.
After Pu Luochen entered the county seat, he bought a bag of baked cakes in the city, and also bought some clothes, and after getting ready, he found a fast horse, took the baked cakes and clothes, and left Hongnong County. Out of Hongnong County, along the Honglu water line 30 miles is Lingbao County. Lingbao County south ten miles away is Hangu Pass, Hangu Pass and Kuo Mountain are not far apart, the two places are called "Kui Han" because of the dangerous terrain, easy to defend and difficult to attack. After Pu Luochen came to Hangu Pass, he set off from Hangu Pass, passed through the hills of Kunshan Mountain, and arrived at the territory of Xiaoqinling. The Xiaoqinling Mountains are a section of the mountain range formed by the eastward extension of the Huashan Mountains. The mountain range is trending east-west, and the north and south sides are connected to the basin by "large faults", showing an inverse "S" type fault block uplift. The rivers on both sides of the ridge diverge from north to south, and the downward cutting effect is strong, forming a cross-cutting mountain, a canyon or valley landform with steep walls and deep valleys. The locals call this deep-cut canyon that runs with the north-south ridges "Yu". These valleys cut through the fault cliffs to form many valleys, and the larger ones are an important way to the mountainous areas. Pu Luochen looked at the Xiaoqinling Mountains in front of him, and thought in his heart: "The place I passed through before was the Kushan Mountains, the terrain is not too complicated, and there is nothing, but this Xiaoqinling Mountains is different. This small Qinling Mountains is full of strange peaks, strange rocks, and the grass and trees under the mountain are densely overlapped, teaching people to see nothing clearly. Although there is a feasible canyon, this canyon is deep and long, and the mouth of the valley is so narrow, people have to guard against it!" While thinking about it, somehow, his mind suddenly remembered that day when he and Shen Xinyi went to Lishan for refuge.
"That's right!" Pu Luochen suddenly burst out of his mouth, I remember that day, Miss Shen took me to Lishan for refuge, and I waited for the guidance of the local people to successfully arrive at the Laojun Palace. Today, when I came to this small Qinling Mountains, if there was no one to guide me, how would I get to that Niangniang Mountain? It seems that I must find someone who lives here to lead the way for me!"
"But ......" Speaking of this, Pu Luochen's face turned embarrassed again, and he said to himself: "There is no other thing to see here except for mountains, rocks, grass and trees, how easy is it to find someone?"
After all, the temporary difficulty still can't stop the pace of progress. Pu Luochen thought about it and felt that staying where he was would only delay his trip, so it was safer to move on. As for finding someone to lead the way, I can only try my luck and go and see. The canyon is winding, the mountain road is uneven, and Pu Luochen is not familiar with the terrain, so he can only move forward cautiously along the way. After passing through several canyons, Pu Luochen came to a mountain col, which was full of trees and rocks, and from time to time he could hear the sound of some streams flowing. Pu Luochen looked up at the sky, it was noon, the sun was shining, instead of braving the heat to blindly advance, it was better to find a shady place to rest. Pu Luochen thought of this, so he followed the sound of flowing water and walked forward. After walking for about two quarters of an hour, Pu Luochen found the flowing stream, stopped, tied his horse to a nearby cypress tree, and then squatted down beside the stream to rest. Washing your face and quenching your thirst may be one of the things that every pedestrian will do when they see a water source. After Pu Luochen drank a few sips of water, he suddenly thought that the horses around him had not yet drunk water, so he got up and led the fast horse to the side of the stream. As soon as the horse reached the brook, he lowered his head and drank from it, thinking that he must have been thirsty. When Pu Luochen saw this, he only said that he had done a good deed, and he was also happy in his heart.
On the way, if there is no water source to support, even the strongest person will be exhausted. Especially when the future is uncertain. After the horse had finished drinking the water, Pu Luochen took the water bladder from the horse and went to the stream to fetch water. As soon as the water bladder was filled, a faint sound of footsteps came to my ears.
"Someone!" Pu Luochen quickly thought of these two words, and his originally dark but handsome face began to become gloomy at this moment.
"Who could it be?" Pu Luochen thought to himself, could it be the people who live here?
Pu Luochen quickly affirmed this idea. Because, only people who live in the mountains will often walk around the mountains. It wasn't long before a shadow appeared beside the stream, and at the same time, the footsteps stopped. Although I only saw a shadow, it was not much different from the appearance of the real person. The person who came was a woman, about twenty-five or sixteen years old, a few years older than Pu Luochen, and her appearance was quite good-looking, but it was not difficult to see from her outfit that this woman had married another woman. In addition, the woman carried a bamboo basket in her right arm, which contained clothes, apparently for laundry.
When the woman saw that there were people by the stream, she didn't say much, but still put down the bamboo basket, took her clothes, squatted down by the stream, and began to wash them. The stream was not very wide, and people on both sides could see each other clearly. Pu Luochen watched from the side for a while and found that this woman was very skilled in washing clothes, but her hands were always trembling slightly.
"Why are this girl's hands trembling a little? Could it be that she is afraid?" Pu Luochen thought to himself.
I don't want to be nothing, thinking about it like this, Pu Luochen's face didn't feel embarrassed, and he said in his heart: "Won't you be afraid of me, a foreigner?" Thinking of this, Pu Luochen immediately turned his gaze to the woman. The woman was still washing her clothes with her head down, and she didn't seem to take Pu Luochen's existence to heart. Pu Luochen breathed a sigh of relief slightly, only said that he was too careful, and then tidied up his clothes, and made a gesture to the woman across a stream, and said: "This sister-in-law, you are polite here!" The woman immediately stopped what she was doing, looked up at Pu Luochen, and said: "The son's salute is really tormenting the slave family." The slave family is just a country woman, how can it be worth the son's personal salute?" Pu Luochen hurriedly said: "This sister-in-law is serious, she is a country husband in Xia, and she is the same country person as her sister-in-law, and her sister-in-law is a few years older than Xia, and it is natural to bow to her sister-in-law in Xia, so why do you want to "torture" it?" The woman saw that Pu Luochen's words and demeanor were very respectful, not like some kind of villain, and her heart was a little calm, so she nodded and responded: "What the son said is reasonable!" As soon as the woman finished speaking, her hands folded into fists, her right hand covered her left hand, and she put it on her chest, and made a blessing salute to Pu Luochen, and said: "Son, Wanfu!" Pu Luochen hurriedly returned the salute and said, "Sister-in-law doesn't have to be polite!" Since the other party saluted, he had obviously begun to slowly trust Pu Luochen. It's just that trust is trust, and the doubts in my heart still can't be eliminated.
I only heard the woman ask: "Childe doesn't look like a local, I don't know why he came here?" Pu Luochen said: "What my sister-in-law said is very true, I am indeed not a local, and the reason why I came here is to find a friend." The woman nodded and said, "Oh, it turned out to be looking for a friend, I don't know where the friend's family lives as the son said?" Pu Luochen replied: "Niangniang Mountain, Stone Waterfall." When the woman heard the words "Stone Waterfall", she was taken aback and said, "What? Your friend lives in Stone Waterfall?" Pu Luochen nodded and said, "Yes, he sent me a letter, and the letter said that he was in Stone Waterfall!" The woman was even more surprised when she heard Pu Luochen say this, and said loudly: "What? He also sent you a letter?" Pu Luochen nodded again and again, and said, "Yes!" The woman quickly said: "Then you take out the letter and let me see it!" Pu Luochen was speechless when he heard this.
"This ...... She, why does she still need to read the letter?" Pu Luochen didn't feel a little embarrassed. If you can't produce a letter, it will only make the other party suspicious, so you should try to cover up the past in any case.
"Sister-in-law, what about this letter...... Pu Luochen's words began to become fragmented.
Letters...... Next...... Today...... I didn't bring it with me!" Although it was a little hesitant, he finally finished the sentence.
The woman glanced at Pu Luochen, and said coldly: "In my opinion, you don't have it at all!" Without waiting for Pu Luochen to speak, the woman said again: "The slave family originally thought that you were a humble and polite person, but now they know that you are a liar!" After speaking, he took back his clothes, lifted the bamboo basket, and left quickly. Pu Luochen even called "sister-in-law" a few times, but the woman ignored it.
"I finally met a local person, I can't just let her go!" Pu Luochen thought of this, and chased after the woman.
