Chapter 65: Trapped in the Dead of Night

Liu Zihan traveled north for more than an hour, but he never saw the town store, let alone the town store, and he didn't even see a small village. When he was tired, he found an open place, lit a bonfire to keep himself warm, and soon fell asleep in a daze.

I don't know how long I slept, but I heard someone in my ear say, "Don't sleep here, what should I do if I catch a cold." Liu Zihan was half-asleep and half-awake, but he was still Pan Cheng'er, and said angrily: "Why are you so ghostly?" said that he opened his eyes and sat up, but saw that a strange face was looking at him with a smile. The man was slightly stunned when he heard Liu Zihan speak, and then smiled: "Girl, don't be nervous, I'm not that person." Liu Zihan knew that she had reprimanded the wrong person, and she couldn't help but blush slightly. When I settled down and looked at it again, I saw that the person in front of me was dressed very exquisitely, dressed as a scholar, and a folding fan in his hand was shaking unhurriedly, looking beautiful and very handsome.

Liu Zihan said with a thousand blessings: "I'm sorry, I thought it was ......" The boy smiled slightly and said, "It doesn't matter." Haven't you asked Miss Fang's name?Who is it?Why do you sleep in the deep forest in the middle of the night?" Liu Zihan said: "The little woman's surname is Liu, her name is Zihan, and her family lives in Lin...... Fuzhou. It's just that because of the decline of the family, I want to go to the north to find my uncle......" As he was talking, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and he said in his heart: "You asked me why I was sleeping in the deep forest in the middle of the night, and I also wanted to ask you why you ...... this again" Thinking about it, he said with a pleasant face: "I haven't asked the son's surname Gao, but why ......" The boy smiled lightly and said: "Xiaosheng Zhang Tiande, a scholar, how can he be worthy of the surname Gao......?" said with a long sigh, with great sadness. Liu Zihan said: "Zhang Gongzi must have something on his mind, right?" Zhang Tiande said: "Miss is extremely smart. I was a poor scholar, and there is a village not far from here, which is Xiaosheng's hometown. Xiaosheng has had a childhood sweetheart girl since he was a child, and he is interested in ...... each other" Zhang Tiande said the words childhood sweetheart, Liu Zihan couldn't help but have a trace of bitterness on his face, but Zhang Tiande didn't notice it, and continued: "That's because my family is poor, and I can't get a reputation for the exam, and her family doesn't agree with our relationship, so we sneak out every night and come here to meet......" Liu Zihan couldn't help but blush slightly when she heard this. This change was seen by Zhang Tiande, and he hurriedly said: "Girl, don't misunderstand, my lover and I met again just to complain to each other, and I didn't dare to do anything beyond the courtesy~" Liu Zihan saw that he was a scholar, and he didn't expect to lie, so he nodded. Zhang Tiande said: "Later, I went to Beijing to catch the exam, the emperor list opened, and the young student won the exam. Liu Zihan smiled and said: "Then congratulations to the son~" Zhang Tiande spread his hands, faced the sky, two lines of tears flowed down his cheeks, and said sadly: "Where does ......the joy come from! has already married another wife!" Liu Zihan couldn't help but feel a little pity, and thought: "It turns out that this person came here in the middle of the night because he missed his lover." Said: "Zhang Gongzi, don't be sad, there are many good women in the world, a person like Gongzi who is dignified and famous, he will definitely meet a better woman in the future......" The scholar cried for a long time, sighed and said: "What the girl said is very ...... Hey, the past is over, why do you mention it? So much so that the girl laughed......" Liu Zihan waved his hand and said: "How come, Zhang Gongzi is affectionate and righteous, and he is a good person." Zhang Tiande smiled slightly and said: "This time, Zhang's heart is much more comfortable, thank you girl~ Zhang's home is not far in front, I think it is very dangerous for the girl to be alone, if you don't dislike it, it is better to stay in the cold house, and it is not too late to go on the road when it is dawn." Liu Zihan hesitated for a while, it was late at night, and there were often wild beasts howling around, Liu Zihan thought in his heart and said, "Then bother......

Zhang Tiande was overjoyed and guided the way, and the two of them went in the direction they were guided one after the other. After walking for a short time, a small village appeared in front of me, and everyone was resting behind closed doors. Zhang Tiande guided Liu Zihan to a large mansion, raised the door knocker and knocked a few times, and asked in the courtyard, "Who?" Zhang Tiande replied: "It's me." The man in the courtyard looked extremely excited, and said: "It turns out that the young master is back~" said that he opened the door, it was an old man in his forties and fifties, and the old man said: "Young master, you can come back, you are gone, the old lady is in a hurry!" Then he glanced at Liu Zihan and said: "This girl is ......" Zhang Tiande said: "This is a friend of mine, who came to stay." Lao Li, go find a room to lead the lady to live. The one named Lao Li was stunned, then smiled, as if he was very happy, and said: "Yes, yes, it turned out to be a friend of the young master, so I'll go and prepare." Said to Zhang Tiande: "Young master, go and say hello to the old lady, the old couple can't find you because they are in a hurry, and they haven't slept yet." His face was very solemn. Zhang Tiande nodded in response, his expression extremely impatient. Turning to Liu Zihan, he said, "Miss Liu, please go with this old man." Liu Zihan nodded in thanks.

Led by the old man, he came to a cross-courtyard, and Lao Li said, "Please rest the girl again." Liu Zihan said with a blessing: "Thank you, old uncle~" The old man waved his hand again and again: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be~" said down, and smiled secretly before leaving. Liu Zihan pushed the door in, and saw that the furnishings in the house were very exquisite, and its degree was comparable to the heyday of his own family, and he thought: "Didn't this scholar say that his family was poor, how can he ...... Yes, he later passed the list, but he was determined to become a big official, and the newly built house in his family. Hey, wouldn't his former lover's parents be dizzy if they knew that he was so promising?"

After packing up his things, taking a sip of tea, and about to go to bed, he only heard a knock on the door, and the man outside: "Is Miss asleep?" Liu Zihan knew that it was Zhang Tiande when he heard it, and he didn't know what he was doing here, so he said, "Not yet...... Is Childe okay?"

Zhang Tiande pushed the door in, holding a wooden plate in his hand, which was a pot of wine and a few plates of exquisite dishes, and said with a smile: "Miss Liu, I can't sleep, how about you accompany me for a drink?" Liu Zihan was very impatient, the night was very deep, and if he didn't sleep, the sky would be bright, and he would have to hurry tomorrow, but after all, someone else took him in to stay overnight, so he said: "Don't you have to go to Lingzun Lingtang to ask for peace?" Zhang Tiande smiled: "Don't worry about them, can't you let them know that I'm back." Liu Zihan was puzzled and said, "Why is that?" Zhang Tiande said: "You don't have to care so much~Come on, drink with me~" said and reached out to pull Liu Zihan's arm. Liu Zihan was taken aback, got up to dodge, sat on the stool, with a slight anger on his face, and said, "Please also ask the son to respect himself." Zhang Tiande was stunned for a moment, then laughed, and said: "Self-respect? But why?" Liu Zihan was shocked, thinking: "How can this person be like a different person as soon as he returns to his home?" But under the eaves of people, it is not easy to tear his face, so he turned around and picked up his burden and said: "How annoying~" said that he was going to leave with his burden on his back.

It was the extreme turn that only a "squeak" was heard, and the door closed by itself. Liu Zihan was taken aback, but saw Zhang Tiande sitting on the edge of the bed and didn't move, and he didn't know why the door closed by himself.

Zhang Tiande stood up and walked to the table, took two wine glasses, poured two glasses of wine and said, "Here, why are you in such a hurry?"
