Chapter 4 237 The face is like the stars, and the heart is deeper than the white clouds
Finally a normal conversation.
"Girl, can you tell me what this place is?"
"No, you can't. ”
I saw that the girl shook her head vigorously, as if Jiu asked what could not be mentioned by this statement.
Jiuwen looked at the girl gently, and the blue figure of the lake became more and more mysterious, and gradually seemed to be covered with a shallow white mist.
Jiuwen closed his eyes and opened them again, and the white mist was still there.
From the beginning of the heartbeat, to the incomprehension, to the present. The girl seems to be hiding more and more secrets, which makes Jiuwen full of curiosity and doesn't know how to get closer to her.
The face is like the stars, and the heart is deeper than the white clouds.
The girl did not reply, but looked panicked, and looked around as she had done at the beginning, looking nervously from place to place, as if she were a thief, as if there were wild beasts hidden in the surrounding woods that were about to take her.
"Girl, are you really a thief?" said Jiuwen in Lue Dai's slightly mocking tone, trying to probe again.
"You're the thief. The girl pouted, looking angry.
"You are a thief, everyone in the world can be a thief, but I can't. Want to know why?"
Such an exaggeration, Jiuwen really became interested, and followed the girl's words: "If the girl is willing, I will hear the details in the next wish." ”
"Hmph, I have more than anyone else, how can I look at other people's things.
If there's nothing I'd look up to, how could I steal it?
You can only be considered a thief if you want to take what doesn't belong to you. ”
Jiuwen smiled and nodded, "What the girl said is reasonable, what the girl said is reasonable." ”
The girl stared at Jiuwen with wide eyes for a long time, and then asked, "Could it be that you are a thief?"
"Although I am destitute, I don't feel that there is anything that others have but I don't have, and I want to take it for myself. According to what the girl said, Zai Xia is obviously not a thief, but the girl is so cautious, could it be that in addition to catching thieves, there are some fierce beasts around here that will eat people?"
"Cannibalism?" Hearing these two words, the girl hugged her head and squatted on the ground.
Seeing her such a timid appearance, Jiuwen couldn't help laughing.
"What are you laughing at? Terrible, terrible. ”
The girl hurriedly defended herself.
"Is that right? Is it true that there are man-eating beasts around the area? Is it really right to speculate in the next place?"
"Yes, yes, what Childe said is right, Childe is right.
The master said that there was a man-eating monster outside the village recently, and asked the brothers to go down the mountain to look for it, if they found a beast that they could catch, they would catch it back to see what kind of monster it was, and if they couldn't catch it, they would kill the beast on the spot, so as not to harm the people.
In addition, it is also a good reminder to the people to close the doors and windows at night, and not to leave strangers at home.
If there are any outsiders in the village, it is best to persuade him to leave, and lead him to the Hanyin Inn three miles outside the village. ”
Jiuwen was confused, but he was scared.
Every time I hear about the flesh-and-blood beast that eats man, I feel a panic in my heart.
After being silent for a long time, he asked, "Hanyin Inn?" The girl said about the Hanyin Inn, I have never heard of it before. ”
"It's normal that Childe hasn't heard of it, and this Hanyin Inn really didn't have it before. ”
Jiuwen is thoughtful, and he will definitely ponder things that are not clear, and at this moment he is thinking about the matter of this Hanyin Inn. He had lived in the previous village for more than a month, and had never heard of an inn three miles outside the village.
This matter is very confusing, and the word Hanyin has never been mentioned by the villagers.
When did a cold sound inn emerge, and it was very connected to the beast just mentioned?
He thought about it carefully, and finally determined that there was no inn near the village, and even when he went to the river to soak at night, he did not see the candle flame of any inn farther away.
Outside the village is a wilderness and mountain forest, and there can be no inn at all.
So Jiu Wen changed his approach and continued to ask, "Girl, have you found that man-eating demon beast?"
"I haven't found it yet, because my brothers haven't come back yet. ”
Jiu Wen sighed, showing some concern, and continued, "Then there are no strange guests at this Hanyin Inn?"
"What's the Hanyin Inn. ”
When the girl said this, Jiuwen suddenly felt that he had been teased by this girl all along, and he couldn't help but pull his face.
"Girl, you are joking with it, what will you say about demon beasts, how can there be demons and evil in this Qi country, you are already benevolent and righteous if you don't go to the official mansion to receive hair, and you are talking about Hanyin Inn upside down, you have lived in the village for so long, and you have never heard any Hanyin Inn. ”
Seeing that he was so angry, the girl hurriedly argued, "What I said was the truth, not a word of falsehood, and since you didn't believe what I said, then I won't say a word." ”
After saying that, he turned around and simply didn't even look at Jiuwen.
Jiuwen was anxious again, and hurriedly coaxed: "No, no, Zai Xia definitely does not suspect that the girl is lying, if you have this thought, let Zai Xia die again." ”
Hearing Jiuwen say this, the girl burst out laughing, "You and I don't need to worry about this matter here, the master said that if there are demon beasts, there must be them." The villagers let the stranger go three miles outside the village, and naturally there will be a Hanyin Inn. These things happen one after the other.
And now the Hanyin Inn has not appeared, which also shows that the villagers have not let anyone go to three miles outside the village, and I speak clearly and clearly. Why can't Childe understand?"
"I don't know why, from the time I met the girl to the present, it's like the three souls have lost the seven spirits, and everything is in the clouds, and I can't figure it out. I don't know if I was swallowed by the mire or if I was stupid and didn't know how to speak. ”
"Really, I don't think Childe is a stupid person. ”
For some reason, when the girl said this, her face showed two faint shades of red. Then he turned his face away and stopped talking.
"Girl, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing that the girl was silent for a long time, Jiuwen suddenly felt a little anxious in his heart, for fear that his words would offend the girl.
Maybe his words were a little heavy, and he quickly apologized, "Don't be angry, girl, it's your fault, but you said that it's ugly and smelly, and you really have suffering below, and you can't admit it." If you can change your clothes as soon as possible, you won't be ugly and smelly, which will make the girl sad. ”
After speaking, I saw the girl shaking her hand again and again, "No, no, the son is not ugly, the son is not ugly at all, the son looks better than Pan An, and he looks very good." ”
