Getting closer to prosperity, the post road is getting wider, Xu Fengnian and the woman with broken appearance rested in a small town covered by the city wall, and there are still three days away from the state city.
She was wearing Xu Fengnian's scribe clothes, slightly loose, and the four scars on her face began to form cocoons, fortunately in misfortune, in order not to show clues, so that her injuries were synchronized with the death of Chong Gui, she was able to apply ointment, and slightly accelerate the healing progress, but the desert wind and sand were rough, after the brush, even if she was wrapped in a headscarf, protecting the face that was no longer delicate, a few days ago, she was often blurred in flesh and blood, and the cone pain she received must not be easier than the dagger stroke, how she cried, Xu Fengnian never said anything to comfort, The two were silent, but Lu Shen occasionally took the initiative to ask about some things in the rivers and lakes, and Xu Fengnian also said one thing, all of which were gentle words, perhaps because he was afraid of making her laugh and suffering again.
Xu Fengnian and her just entered the city, the sky changed suddenly, the dark clouds covered the sun, it was obviously noon, gloomy and dark as night, a sandstorm was coming, Xu Fengnian had to enter a simple inn with Lu Shen, the innkeeper took advantage of the fire to rob, and raised the price to the dead, Xu Fengnian's original intention was to be slaughtered for a few taels of silver It doesn't matter, just have a place to stay, but Lu Shen drilled the tip of the horn again, pulled his cuffs, and refused to be treated as a wronged big head for money, it seems that she said that she has a good way to run a family, and she is sincere.
Xu Fengnian was helpless, turned around under the white eyes of the shopkeeper, thinking about changing to a store with a little more conscience, and before he crossed the threshold, he saw merchants and travelers on the narrow street flocking to him, looking at the posture, if he didn't live here, there would be kěnéng to sleep on the street, hiding in the alley to avoid the wind and sand, Xu Fengnian smiled at her, she no longer insisted, the innkeeper was careful, and deliberately made it difficult, the price doubled, Lu Shen was so angry that his shoulders trembled, Xu Fengnian put his head on her shoulder, shook his head, and honestly paid the deposit, I got the wooden key and went to the backyard accommodation.
Lu Shen, who covered his face with a turban, was a little sullen, Xu Fengnian opened the firewood door, a room smelled musty, after closing the door, he took off the bookbox and the Spring and Autumn Sword, there was a clay pot on the table, and shook it, there was no water left, Lu Shen sat quietly on the stool, took off the turban, gently skimmed his head, did not look at Xu Fengnian, but asked: "With the mastery of the son, why do you want to whisper with these small people in the market, you don't need to take the sword out of the sheath, you can scare their courage." ” Xu Fengnian closed the two leaky windows, sat at the table, and said with a smile: "Do you think that a master has to be a pair of eyes to shoot the cold, or he is born with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and he can't wait to hang two tiger and leopard corpses behind his back, or hang knives, guns, sticks and spears on his body, and he looks magnificent when he goes out."
The corners of Lu Shen's mouth were a little hooked, and when she heard the ridicule in her words, her mood improved a little.
Xu Fengnian bent down and took out a few cheats from the bookcase, put them in front of her eyes, sat cross-legged on the stool, with a relaxed attitude, and said softly: "I have been idle these days, and I have been practicing according to the tricks inside, only to find that it is very fun." ” She said softly, "Trick it off" Xu Fengnian waved his hand and said, "That's not good, what should I do if the sky collapses." ” Without waiting for her to speak, Xu Fengnian said softly: "Don't laugh." ” She really kept her face shut.
Xu Fengnian picked up the tea clay pot and said, "I'll go get some water and food, wait." ” Lu Shen nodded, picked up a shoddy cheatbook and flipped through it, Xu Fengnian didn't long return to carry a tea jar filled with cold water, Lu Shen raised his head and asked, "It's spending money again" Xu Fengnian said with a smile: "No way, the little ghost is difficult, a pot of water and half a tael of silver, let's drink it as a jade liquid later."
By the way, we'll have to wait a little longer for the meal. ” Lu Shen lowered his head to read the book and said, "I can afford to wait." ” éiyou knocked on the door, an innkeeper pushed the door in a big grin, Lu Shen hurriedly grabbed the turban, turned his head to wrap in a panic, the guy held a large wooden plate in one hand, containing a few sloppy and rough food, he inadvertently saw Lu Shen's face, startled, almost smashed the plate, hurriedly put down the food, ran out to cross the threshold, and shouted: "Come and see, come and see, there is an ugly monster in the house, Lao Tzu saw the ghost during the day." ” Lu Shen grabbed Xu Fengnian's cuffs, but Xu Fengnian shook slightly, strode out of the door, and kicked the unlucky insect into the courtyard wall, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
After returning to the house, Lu Shen said gloomily: "I was originally very ugly. ” Xu Fengnian said calmly: "Yes, it's not good-looking."
The face is painted with flowers, and it is strange that it looks good.
But whoever dares to say it, into my ears, I will let him" She said, "Die."
Xu Fengnian said seriously: "How can I be, I am not a demon, I have always liked to convince people with my appearance, but if I can't do it, I will convince people with virtue." ” Lu Shen stared at this scholar who couldn't tell whether he was a good person or a bad person, pursed his lips, seemed to be smiling, shook his head and said, "Yidiǎn is not funny." ” Xu Fengnian laughed at it, handed out dishes and meals, and then buried himself in gobbling it up.
Lu Shen hid her face with one hand, chewed and swallowed slowly, a ladylike demeanor who did not speak, and put down her chopsticks at the same time as Xu Fengnian, she hesitated for a moment and said, "I thought you would say some beautiful words to comfort me just now." ” Xu Fengnian saw that she still had leftover food, and she was not polite, so she moved it to her eyes together, and said while eating: "Didn't you say that you hate others for lying to you the most, whether you believe it or not, in my eyes, you are still that handsome woman, not good-looking, but it's hard to see where to go." ” Lu Shen asked, "Really" Xu Fengnian lowered his head to eat and nodded.
The storm lasted for half an afternoon, gradually calming down, Xu Fengnian pushed open the window and looked, the sky yijg would not delay the trip, and Lu Shen walked out of the yard, the inn guy who touched the moldy head yijg was carried away, and there was no provocation and retaliation from the inn, Xu Fengnian helped her buy a hat on the street and rode the horse slowly.
Perhaps knowing that the end was approaching, Lu Shen's words were a little more lively, and he began to be willing to take the initiative to ask Xu Fengnian some anecdotes about the rivers and lakes, and said that there was no attempt to tempt the Wu family's nine swords and ten thousand horses, and there was no attempt to tempt, a pair of men and women both intentionally or unintentionally diluted their scheming city, and Lu Shen herself was also a woman with a free temperament, otherwise she would not have traveled with Chong Gui alone.
Where there is gathering, there is dispersion.
Adjacent to the state city, the width of the post road Yijg is not inferior to several main roads in Beiliang.
Lu Shen looked at the majestic city lying on the yellow sand like a behemoth, his heart palpitated, biting his lip, and he was demented.
For a long time, I looked back, wanting to take a look at the man and say goodbye.
It's just that Yijg is nowhere to be seen.
She smiled, unable to see anyone, but still turned her horse's head and waved her hand.
In the distance, Xu Fengnian, who saw this scene, slowly leaned back, lay on the back of the horse, and took a wild grass stalk in his mouth.
