Chapter 211: Angry at Rejection

Although the woman had meant to urge when she spoke, after the old man replied, she just sighed and said no more. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Ling Yun and Qi Feng had already arrived outside the house at this time, and when they listened to the two of them, although their tone was very calm, they also showed a slight sense of lack of strength. Only then did it become clear that this old couple and wife did not know martial arts, but were just ordinary people.

The two of them ran for another half day, and they were already hungry. At this time, I smelled the fragrance wafting from the crack in the door, and I couldn't help swallowing my saliva.

The two of them have been begging for food since they were children, and they saw that the old couple had cooked food and were about to eat. I immediately knocked on the door and asked for two mouthfuls of hot food.

The old man seemed to be busy cooking, and he didn't hear a sound. I heard the old woman say with joy in her tone, "Who?"

Ling Yun lied that he was a refugee and wanted to go in and beg for food. The two of them are not famous people, and this couple does not know martial arts. It's so that he can say his name, and he doesn't just make up a name.

After the old woman heard him, Ling Yun heard a noise in the room, thinking that the old woman got up and opened the door for herself. The two hadn't eaten hot food since the last time they had eaten the boar. The thought that I would be able to eat a few bites of hot food in no time was an indescribable joy in my heart.

At this moment, I suddenly heard the old man from before say, "Don't be busy!" He spoke very quietly, but Ling Yun and the others had been listening intently to the movement in the room, and they still heard these two words clearly.

When the two of them saw that the old man refused to let him in, their brows were furrowed, and they didn't know what he wanted to do. As everyone knows, although the Jin Dynasty won the Battle of Weishui, the imperial court was busy with the Northern Expedition, and there was little management of the people's house robbery. And this old couple lives in this remote place, if they meet a bad guy and easily open the door, wouldn't they give their lives in vain?

Lingyun and the others have no fixed residence, so they naturally don't know the reason for this. But the old man didn't like outsiders to disturb him, so he didn't let the old woman open the door for him. When I was annoyed in my heart, I heard the old man say again: "Where are you two from, and what are you doing here?"

Ling Yun said that he was a refugee fleeing the famine, so he said: "Xiaosheng came from Pingding, but he just passed through here and wanted to go into the house to beg for food. Xiaosheng has no malicious intentions, if the old gentleman is inconvenient, then we won't bother the two of you. After speaking, he arched his hand towards the gate, and wanted to leave with Qi Feng.

When the old man heard that the two of them were leaving, he said quite unceremoniously: "No!"

Ling Yun was about to leave, but when he heard his words so rude, his heart couldn't help but rush up. It is not uncommon for anyone who has never encountered a difficult situation to ask for help. He didn't want to help, so why was his tone so unkind, as if he was an idle person. I wanted to rush through the door and reason with the old man.

Seeing that his expression was not good, Qi Feng grabbed him and said, "Forget it, we haven't been looked down upon by many people." The couple must have been worried that we were villains, so they didn't let us in. The two old men don't owe us anything, it's us who beg for help. When we speak, we should think of being turned away. Why should you have trouble with two old men, it will only increase the unhappiness in your heart. ”

Ling Yun said angrily: "How come I don't know that asking for someone should look like asking for someone, is there something wrong with what I just said? It's just that this old man is too deceitful, and he doesn't want to help, so why bother to use words to squeeze us." We don't owe him anything, so why should he be hostile to us?"

After speaking, he broke free of Qi Feng's wrist and went straight to the gate. The thatched hut was already dilapidated, and although there was a gateway to enter and exit, the gate was only a face door nailed together with a few wooden planks. Not to mention a person who knows martial arts, even if he is an ordinary person with a strong body, he can kick the door to smash with one kick.

As soon as Ling Yun raised his foot, he heard the door squeak open. What catches your eye is a wrinkled face. By the faint light, Ling Yun could see clearly that the person who opened the door had silver hair coiled on top of his head and was wearing a coarse cloth shirt. But judging from the condition of the clothes, it seems that the clothes have just been made.

Ling Yun's script was to kick at the wooden door, and when the wooden door opened, he kicked at the old woman. Ling Yun saw him looking at him with a kind face, and hurriedly collected the strength on his feet. He knew that the old woman intended to let him into the house, but it was only for the sake of the old man's face that he turned the two away.

hurriedly took two steps back, bowed and said, "Mother-in-law forgive me, the kid didn't mean to offend my mother-in-law, and I ask my mother-in-law to forgive me." ”

The old woman smiled and said, "You didn't do anything to me, so why apologize to me." Quick, come inside, it's cold outside. Ling Yun saw that he had a kind look on his face, and seemed to have a good impression of him. But he had heard the old man not let the mother-in-law let him into the house, and though he had listened to her urging him, he had only stood outside the door.

The old woman understood what he was thinking, and turned back to the house, and said, "Look, old man, there are two young men, let them in!"

Ling Yun only heard a heavy 'hum' in the room, and then the old woman said, "The old man has agreed, you guys come in quickly." It's cold outside, and it's not good to freeze your body. ”

Lingyun and Qifeng were running outside for a while, and they were already sweating, but they didn't feel how cold they were. But at this time, after all, it is still April weather, and it is still quite cool at night. At this time, after the old woman mentioned it, a gust of wind blew, and the two of them suddenly felt a chill, and they couldn't help but shudder. At the same time, the two of them were thinly dressed, but they really felt that the weather outside was cold.

At that moment, he was no longer polite to the old woman, and said, "In this way, thank you mother-in-law!"

When the old woman saw that they were willing to go into the house, her smile widened. While letting Ling Yun and the others into the house, he said: "In the countryside, there are no rich and noble people. But we're the only one around, so you two can just take a break. ”

As they spoke, Ling Yun and Qi Feng had already entered the house. I saw that the four walls of the house were all made of thatch, and there was only a hole on it. The furnishings of the house were also very simple, except for a wooden table about three feet square, and two benches, there was nothing else. There are four dishes neatly arranged on the table, although they are not chicken, duck and fish, but they are also quite exquisite. There were two pairs of dishes and chopsticks at both ends of the wooden table, thinking that the two were preparing to eat.

There is an exit on the left and right sides of this thatched house, and on one side you can faintly see pots and pans and other utensils, presumably used to cook rice. When they looked to the other side, the old man had already closed a wooden door, and they couldn't see what was going on inside. But you don't need to look at it to know that this must be where the two old men sleep at night.

The old man frowned slightly when he saw the two of them looking at his side, and then looked away. It seemed that he was quite unhappy about the arrival of Ling Yun and the others.

The two knew that it was quite reckless to disturb the two of them late at night. But the old woman was glad to see her, and let herself into the house, and began to add more food for herself. I couldn't bear to brush her kindness, so I had to pretend that I didn't see the old man's expression. (To be continued.) )
