Volume 1: The Wind Comes Chapter 32: Something Happens in the Night and the Dark Wind
I originally wanted to see the customs and customs in Waterfront City, but as soon as I came, I encountered such a scene, Yue Dongxue turned a few streets and threw off Tsukasa Wuji.
Yue Dongxue, who was not interested in continuing to stay, left the waterfront city, so he wanted to continue north, and it happened that there was a caravan at the city gate to recruit guards, and the person in charge of recruitment happened to invite him, and the destination happened to be Yundu, and Yue Dongxue happened to join.
So many are just too coincidental, so many things are just right, so naturally there is no reason to refuse, Yue Dongxue sat in the carriage of Yinghualou and thought so.
Of course, he didn't know that someone had said something two years ago, and he didn't know that in some of the cities adjacent to the Tibetan Abyss, someone had already observed many similar people in the past two years.
If it weren't for the fact that he owed a favor to a restaurant in Tucheng, it might have taken a lot of effort to find out even if it was Yinghualou.
In his opinion, no matter what the purpose, since it is just right, it is just right, everything is so rational and orderly, it doesn't matter if it is like a script that has been arranged, because he knows that there is only one thing he wants to do.
So even if the caravan's carriage has crossed a few mountains and made a few bends these days, Yue Dongxue has been closing his eyes and recuperating, and he doesn't care. Because, traveling far away, this is the way it should be.
......
In the evening, the group stopped outside a canyon to rest for the night and set off again the next day.
As the person in charge, Jiao Nian had to go around directing and arranging matters, but looking at the last carriage of the caravan, he really didn't want to see that face.
He didn't understand why the owner would suddenly arrange for the maids in the building to accompany the caravan, let alone why he had to specially recruit such a strange old man to be the guard, and deliberately changed horses at the city gate, waiting for so long, could it be that the owner knew from the beginning that he would be willing to join the caravan?
But thinking about it, as the person in charge, naturally there shouldn't be any superfluous look on his face, so even if he didn't want to see the masked face, Jiao Nian still walked to the carriage with a smile and knocked on the door a few times.
"Sir, the front is the Falling Wild Goose Gorge, it is too dangerous to travel at night, the caravan is going to rest here tonight, and it will leave early tomorrow morning, Sir, can you get off the car and rest for a while?"
......
The carriage was silent, without any answer, as if it had long been empty.
This made Jiao Nian a little embarrassed, and was about to say something, when he saw the carriage door open, and the "old man" in a red robe walked out with a cane and the silver mask.
"Call me again if you have something!"
Dropping this sentence in a dumb voice, Yue Dongxue didn't care about Jiao Nian's thoughts anymore, walked to a stone in the distance and sat down, looking at the twilight that gradually disappeared in the sky, Yue Dongxue lit a grass smoke, but people also sighed.
The so-called immortals turned out to be just ordinary people who knew how to practice, and what immortals were in the world, immortals were just ordinary people's good names for cultivators.
"Even in this small caravan, there are a few cultivators of the Qimen realm to escort you, Dongyue Town, it's really a well!"
Yue Dongxue thought so.
Thinking of her ridiculous dreams, Yue Dongxue added a little bitterness to her heart, as if she had returned to the blazing stove, sweating profusely pulling the bellows, while watching the blacksmith father's diligent iron smelting, and occasionally sneaking a glance at the drunkard basking in the sun in the yard and the beautiful woman rubbing his legs in front of him.
"It turns out that a person can be so happy in a dream!" Yue Dongxue was full of emotions.
The afterglow of the setting sun couldn't pass through the person's body, leaving only a funny slender back behind him, as if the string of swear words in Jiao Nian's heart that had been suffocated by good cultivation made his voice a little higher when arranging others.
Camping to feed the horses, lighting a fire and cooking, a team of dozens of people always can't avoid the hustle and bustle.
It's just that I don't know if everyone is busy with what they are doing, or if they deliberately ignore Yue Dongxue.
And Yuedongxue also fell quietly, so even the people who swaggered into the forest from the back of the convoy didn't bother to care.
There is always a distinction between black and white in the world, so the stone under the seat has become a little cooler because of the disappearance of the sun, and the other side of the mountain has replaced it, and at some point it has become a curved moon.
"Would you like to eat some?"
"Not hungry!"
Yue Dongxue didn't look back, but she could hear a slightly rapid wheezing sound behind her, so even if she didn't have to look back, she could think of the little face of the girl behind her with a little flush.
The girl sat down next to Yue Dongxue, still holding a piece of hot hair cake in her hand.
The girl's dark eyes kept rolling, and she looked at his side face, as if she was a little curious, so she continued to say in her childlike voice:
"I see you've been sitting here, what's on your mind?"
This time she replaced you with you, and as she spoke, she raised her hand a little higher, and handed the cake closer.
Yue Dongxue naturally understood what she meant, but no matter how unkind she was, when others politely invited you to eat, you shouldn't ignore the kindness of others.
"Loved the quiet!"
Yue Dongxue deliberately made her voice thicker, and she naturally took the hair cake and took a bite while speaking, which was a respectful ceremony.
Hearing Yue Dongxue's answer, the girl smiled happily and said happily: "So that's the case! No wonder you've been sitting here alone!"
Yue Dongxue felt that this was nonsense, so she naturally didn't bother to take care of it, and ate the hair cake silently.
The girl didn't care, and continued: "My name is Hua Xiaoyu, when I was a child, my father and mother said that I must be a beautiful woman like flowers and jade when I grow up, so I was given this name, what about you, old man?"
Yue Dongxue glanced at the girl slightly, although it was night, she could easily see the girl's face clearly, thinking that it was really difficult for your parents to have such an idea.
But these words can't be said, after all, I don't look much better, not everyone can have a good-looking face, so my eyes turned to continue to look into the distance.
The girl was a little depressed when she saw that he didn't speak, and was about to continue to say something, when she heard two words in her ears: "Ice floes!"
"Where are you from?"
"Country man!"
"Is there something wrong with coming to Waterfront City?"
"Passing by!"
"That's also passing through Yundu?"
"Something!"
"We're friends, aren't we?"
"Possibly!"
"So we're friends?"
"Whatever!"
"You're so cold!"
"Oh!"
"Are you really an old man?"
......
......
The night deepened in the boring question-and-answer between the two men, and most of the caravan had already rested, except for the sentry guards who continued to sit by the fire and talk about something.
No one came to disturb the two, but some of the guards occasionally glanced here, but they also looked at Yue Dongxue's eyes a little more annoyed.
If you are also a hired person, why are you like an uncle?
But due to professionalism, there is still no one to make trouble.
Yue Dongxue finally understood how terrifying a woman's mouth was, although she had seen that short-haired person in a small fishing village.
But like the swarthy girl next to her, even if she doesn't pay attention to her, she can talk to herself, and Yue Dongxue is also the first time in her life to meet her.
"You should go back!" In the end, Yue Dongxue couldn't help but remind.
"Yikes!"
And the girl also seemed to remember something, a little embarrassed, if it weren't for the Hundred Refining Realm, which could make people's ability to see no longer hindered by the darkness, Yue Dongxue might not have noticed that her dark and ordinary little face had a hint of red.
Since the eviction order was issued, the girl named Hua Xiaoyu was naturally embarrassed to stay any longer, and after saying goodbye, she ran all the way to the caravan, and kept talking about something in the largest carriage, as if she was explaining her mistake to the lady in the car, and finally she was able to enter the carriage.
Yue Dongxue didn't care what happened to her, the moon had already run from the other side of the mountain to the top of her head, and the faint glimmer was naturally not as bright as the fire behind her, and at this time, it was time for something to happen.
It seems that in order to verify Yuedongxue's thoughts, a burst of rapid horses' hooves has gradually appeared in his ears, getting closer and closer.
A few birds in the mountains and forests were shattered and flew out of the treetops in horror, the sound of horses' hooves getting closer and closer, and the drunken sentry behind them finally noticed that something was wrong, and quickly got up and called everyone else up.
The people who woke up were panicked and very noisy, but fortunately, Jiao Nian was well-informed, and the hired guards were not stunned, and after panicking, they had already protected the carriage in the middle and drew their swords to meet the enemy.
