Chapter 12 The place where the soul is gone, and the dream is hesitant

After experiencing this half of the thrilling, both Xingyan and Juying couldn't help but feel a little tired. Fortunately, Ju Ying still had the silver in his sleeve and had not lost it, so he hired a boat from Xingyan to row, and the young man played the oars, and this leaf boat parted the Poyang waves under the sunset and went straight to the north shore.

The young man who was playing the oars thought that he was doing the same thing on Poyang Lake last night, and he didn't want to happen so many things in less than a day, and it was like a world away in a trance. However, despite all the hardships, it is quite gratifying to see Ju Ying's fairy-like appearance. So he recalled the sinister storm on Poyang Lake in the afternoon, and his subordinates unconsciously increased the strength of the oars. At this moment, he no longer had the heart to think about it, he just wanted to go home as soon as possible, and in his heart, he had never been so eager to see his father and mother as soon as possible.

And Ju Ying, who was curled up on the bow of the boat, covered her head with a bamboo hat to cover her otherworldly appearance, so as not to shock the world when she came ashore.

Compared with the single-minded teenager, this girl's heart is even more ups and downs. For a while, I thought of this young man who was rowing a raft, and the life and death in the stormy waves more than an hour ago, and I felt very sweet in my heart, not only did I not have a trace of fear, but on the contrary, in the depths of my heart lake, there was a trace of throbbing that I had never tasted, which I couldn't describe and couldn't explain clearly, but I only felt that when I thought about it, I seemed to tremble all over my body. After a while, I thought that I had revealed my true face this time, and according to the previous agreement with my father, I should now return to Luoyang. Even if he cheats himself, Uncle Zong, who is stubborn and only listens to his father, will force himself to go back.

If you put it in the past, there is nothing, and before I came to Raozhou, my interest in this game was almost exhausted. didn't think about it, but in this small town of Raozhou, she met this fun teenager, but in just two or three days, it made her feel a little more worried in her heart, and she couldn't give it up, and she was always reluctant to leave the vast Poyang Lake, the unpretentious Raozhou City, and the simple but warm farmhouse mountain village...... And the rowing boy.

Thinking of this, the girl couldn't help but be a little shy, and turned her face to peek at the young man, but saw that he was unconscious, and was rowing back and forth wholeheartedly.

"Alas, it's good to live a simple life like him......"

Thinking of the imminent parting, the girl felt a trace of unprecedented melancholy and loss in her heart.

Beside the distracted girl, the boat is paddling through the colorful waters of Poyang Lake in the setting sun. No one could have imagined that more than an hour ago, the quiet and peaceful waters in front of them were still a scene of turbid waves emptying and miserable winds.

"I don't know if the people on the boat escaped like us...... But what happened to me this time is really strange. ”

The girl who was suffering from gains and losses and was in turmoil, looked at the smoke and water full of the lake, and couldn't help but think,

"It stands to reason that Qin Beizhao's obscure technique, even in the face of this downpour, will never be dissipated by these ordinary rains, why is this self revealing his original appearance?"

"But that's fine...... In the future, he shouldn't think that only Miss Li from the grocery store is good-looking, right?"

Thinking of this, Ju Ying didn't feel a trace of shame on her cheeks, and her cheeks were reflected by the glow of the western sky, making her more and more delicate.

.........

Willingly or unwillingly, the boat finally approached the north shore.

Untie the cable and tie the willow, abandon the boat and go ashore; looking back at the place where you came, the smoke and water are vast.

When he got to the shore, he said to Ju Ying:

"I wanted to go home. Are you also ......?"

At this point, the young boy's words stopped abruptly, and he could not continue.

When the girl heard this, her head bowed and she was speechless for a long time, and the bamboo hat covered her face, so that the troubled young man could not see her expression.

After a long time, the girl seemed to have made up her mind, and said softly:

"Well, I'd like to try that pine cone again, are you welcome?"

Not to mention the relationship between Ju Ying and Xingyan's children, not to mention that the coachman who was waiting for the two of them to come back has been waiting for most of the day on the north shore of Poyang Lake. The coachman couldn't help but be anxious because he witnessed the strange situation on Poyang Lake. Although Uncle Cheng, who is good at planning and foresight, does not have to worry about it before leaving, and said:

"Lao Zong, Ju Ying and that young man are both blessed people, and they have the blessing of God, and it is definitely not human power that can cause harm, just please relax your heart. ”

But even so, Uncle Cheng is not an immortal, and now witnessing the terrifying situation of Poyang Lake, this old sect can't help but be at a loss in his heart. He said in his heart that if Miss had anything to do, then he would die and would not be redeemed!

Just when the coachman surnamed the clan was anxious, he suddenly showed his sad face as if a long drought had met a sweet rainβ€”it turned out that there were two people walking far away on the lake embankment, and one of them was the young man. The other one, although wearing a bamboo hat, is obviously Ju Ying.

As soon as he saw them, Lao Zong hurried up and greeted the two of them halfway, and was about to ask a long question, but he stopped for a while, just stunned.

It turned out that he was seeing Ju Ying's peerless face like a fairy under the cover of the bamboo hat.

"Miss, ...... are you?"

After a while, Lao Zong asked cautiously.

"Uncle Zong, I want to go to Xingyan's house, and I want you to drive us over. ”

Ju Ying didn't answer Lao Zong's question, but just asked him to prepare a car to go to Xingyan's house. Although the girl's voice was not loud, her tone was unmistakable.

"This ...... All right. ”

Although Uncle Zong wanted to speak and stopped, he didn't say anything more in the end, just led Ju Ying and Xingyan into the carriage, and then shook the silk reins and let out a long sigh:

"Drive!~"

So the carriage carried Xingyan Juying and the two of them, left the vast Poyang Lake, and headed towards the horseshoe mountain in the glow of the sky.

In the carriage under the faint twilight, Yu Guang felt the beautiful face of the girl, and Xingyan couldn't help but think in his heart:

"When I stay at home, I see that Ju Yingdi has suddenly become so beautiful, my father and mother, will they think she is a monster?"

By the time Uncle Zong's carriage arrived at the foot of Horseshoe Mountain, it was already full of stars.

Seeing his son, who had not returned for two days, came back, Lao Zhangtou and his wife were very happy. But when they saw Ju Ying walking in the door, the second elder couldn't help but be stunned and stammered!

Seeing this, his heart was broken, looking at the situation of his father and his mother, he was about to open his mouth to explain, but he heard his father and mother stammer:

"Fairies, fairies have descended!"

When Xingyan heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said that it would be easy to do now, it turned out that his father and mother did not think Juying was a demon, but thought it was a fairy.

At that moment, when the second elder's expression calmed down a little, Xingyan repeated Ju Ying's previous obscure words, and told the second elder that this was Ju Ying's true appearance in front of him. It's just that in this Chen statement, the frightening scene on Poyang Lake was omitted, so as not to surprise and be afraid of the second elder.

After listening to the explanation, the Zhang couple understood. It turned out that the fairy-like girl in front of her was the girl who was a guest in her own home. Knowing this, the second elder was not too surprised.

I saw Xingyan Niang looking at the girl in front of her and praised:

"When I look at Juying's voice and eyes, she must not be a rough woman like us. Right now, this fairy daughter-like appearance matches the eyes and voice of the female baby!"

Although she had heard countless praises before, and even some poems inscribed for her, Ju Ying listened to the simple praise of Xingyan Niang, but suddenly felt very embarrassed, and said shyly:

"My mother is not famous, she is ugly, how can her appearance be ...... than a fairy?"

When the "amazing" turmoil calmed down, the empathetic Xingyan Niang knew that they were all hungry, so she stopped gossiping, just set up the table and invited everyone to eat. Uncle Zong was also invited to sit down together and try the farmer's homemade pine cone wine, as well as the pickled mountain delicacies.

At the banquet, Uncle Zong was still so silent, only drinking sullenly and not saying a word.

Seeing him like this, Xingyan's family only said that he was simple and said little, and they didn't think it was different. That Ju Ying smiled and tasted the pine cone wine slowly. In the small house of the mountain house shrouded in night, it is happy, and every room is spring.

After dinner, everyone went to bed according to the last arrangement, but Uncle Cheng, who was originally in the same room with Xingyan, was now replaced by the coachman Lao Zong.

After half a day of tossing, Xingyan was also quite tired, so he quickly fell asleep.

When the young man's soul was faint, he vaguely seemed to hear someone whispering outside the window; When he opened his hazy eyes and looked around, he found that Uncle Zong on the grass shop opposite had disappeared.

Xingyan was wondering in his heart, and he heard the whispering sound faintly in his ears, so he got up in his clothes and came to the window. I saw that in the courtyard surrounded by the bitter hedge, the moon was as bright as water, and there were two figures on the side of the fence, who seemed to be whispering something; if we looked closely, the two were Ju Ying and Uncle Zong, and they seemed to have some disputes.

Xu was afraid that the people in the room would hear it, and they seemed to try their best to keep their voices low, and the words were almost inaudible. But Xingyan was very curious at the moment, although he was far away, but under his concentration, he still heard a few words. It seems that it is Uncle Zong, the coachman, who is about to ask the girl to go back with him quickly, but Ju Ying is a little reluctant.

Vaguely, I heard Uncle Zong mention something, "My lord, the agreement...... The Body of a Daughter...... There is no redemption for death...... Tomorrow morning...... Departure" and so on.

Looking at the demeanor and tone of the two people, it seems that Uncle Zong is upright and arrogant, and every sentence is from the bottom of his heart, and the little girl Juying seems to be a little unreasonable. It seems that in the end, she can't beat Uncle Zong.

Xingyan is also a smart person in Bingxue, how can he not think of the reason when he sees this situation. It must be the owner of Uncle Zong, probably Ju Ying's father, before Ju Ying left home to travel, he had confessed to Uncle Cheng and Uncle Zong, and once his daughter showed her true appearance, he would immediately take her home. I guess that the girl made such a promise before leaving home, so she could come out to travel.

It's not surprising to think that there is such an agreement. This rivers and lakes are sinister, the turmoil is unpredictable, and with such a flower and moon appearance as Juying, it is really a crisis step by step, and it is difficult to move an inch. Now that she has revealed her true face again, she thinks that her loyal servant Uncle Zong is also afraid that the young master will be in danger, so she insists on letting her turn around.

Thinking about it, the young man was stunned, so he went back to sleep on the grass bunk and his clothes. After a while, the words outside the window gradually became inaudible. After a while, Uncle Zong tiptoed back to his straw couch to sleep.

"Come to think of it, early tomorrow morning, Ju Ying and they must go back. ”

Although he had always known that this would be the result, after two or three days of getting along, the young man felt extremely lost and melancholy in his heart at this time.

As a result, some people tossed and turned that night, and it was difficult to sleep anymore.

The next morning, everyone woke up to the chirping of birds in the mountain village.

After breakfast, the words that the young man already knew, but still did not want to hear, still came out of Uncle Zong's mouth:

"So that when the Xian couple learned that my young lady had been delayed in Raozhou for the past few days, she should go back now. In the past two days, my young lady has been taken care of by the little brother of the Zhang family, and there have been many harassments in your family, and the young lady and I are very grateful. These scattered silver taels are invited to be accepted by your husband and wife to express their gratitude. We're going to leave it at that. ”

Perhaps their departure was expected by the Zhang couple, so they were not too surprised, but the people of the mountain village were simple and kind, and it was their hospitality to entertain the master and servant of Juying. Therefore, seeing that Uncle Zong wanted to give them silver, although his family was poor, he was never willing to accept it. In the eyes of the simple old Zhang Tou couple, such hospitality is what the master should do, and if they receive two more silver taels, how is it different from the inn restaurant that does business?

was between refusals, but Ju Ying spoke. She asked Uncle Zong not to be strong, and then smiled at the Zhang couple, saying that in the past two days, she had such a good time to have such a good time, so she wanted to send a small thing to Xingyan on this parting occasion to express her gratitude.

After speaking, the girl untied a talisman jade pendant tied around her neck, and handed it to Xingyan.

The girl's move surprised everyone, but listening to her words, although her voice was soft, her tone was unusually firm, and she had an inexplicable momentum, as if no one could oppose it-even Uncle Zong, whose expression changed several times and was about to speak out to stop him, finally just wanted to stop him.

So Xingyan took the jade pendant that still had the body temperature of a girl, treasured it and hid it in his arms, but he didn't say a word, just ran back to the back room.

Just when everyone didn't know why, they saw the young man running out again, taking out something and stammering to Ju Ying:

"I made this, I made this last night, and I'm going to give it to you as a souvenir. ”

It turned out that it was a wine cup carved from bamboo roots, and it was the kind of small bamboo cup that girls loved at the beginning.

On this bamboo cup, there are still a few paintings carved with knives, which turned out to be a leaf of a flat boat, a few traces of water waves, and a few faint distant mountains;

"Raozhou Commemorative Tour"

While the girl was playing, the boy said sincerely:

"This bamboo cup was made by moonlight in the courtyard at night. It's just a little bright, but it's really poorly done. I just want to make a souvenir for you, and I hope you can accept it. ”

The words were a little apprehensive, but the tone was sincere.

"Thank you, I love it. ”

The girl calmly took the small bamboo cup, then turned around and slowly boarded the carriage.

"General Zong, let's go. ”

The girl said with a slight tremble.

Che Gong, Ma Xiaoxiao, the Raozhou City behind him, which had been lingering for several days, finally gradually moved away from him......

It's just that the girl in the car, rubbing the simple little bamboo cup in her hand, saw the crooked words "Raozhou Remembrance" on it, and the tears in her bright eyes that had been suppressed for a long time couldn't hold back anymore, just snatched out of her eyes......

Precisely:

Blue clouds, yellow leaves, autumn wind

In the surrounding mountains, a whip is in the afterglow

The troubles of the world fill the chest

How can a car of this size afford to carry......

The first volume of "Smoke and Dust of the Fairy Road" is over.
