The fake Taoist pretended to be handsome, and even called himself a poor Taoist, but neither of them paid any attention to him.
Luo Que and Miss Wei Er looked at each other, but neither of them spoke.
Wen Pingyi didn't dare to say anything, for fear that he would break the friendship between the two of them, and then he would be looked down upon, and that's all. Not anymore.
Second Miss Wei raised her slender eyebrows, "Follow me to Happy City."
Luo Quin, who only wanted to go back to the island, was silent for a long time, and said, "What if I say no."
Miss Wei Er looked at her with a half-smile, "Then I will be so angry that my true energy will be reversed, my blood will flow backwards, and my seven orifices will bleed to death, and you can only leave with me. You should remember that you will die if I die." We can't live alone, we can only be a pair of fateful mandarin ducks in this life."
Luo Quin: ...
She won't leave if she leaves, but if Miss Wei Er is really pissed off, she will have made this trip in vain, and she will have to face the wall and think about it when she goes back.
She thought about it again, it is common for people who go mad to lose their temper and suddenly explode to death, unexpectedly, Second Miss Wei is quite self-aware.
In desperation, Luo Quin stretched out his right hand, palm facing up, and said, "Give me your hand."
Second Miss Wei looked at her with great interest, and after seeing Luo Qun taking her own pulse, she pinched those slender fingers and said, "I've been by my side for so many years, and I've actually learned how to feel my pulse."
Luo Que only felt that the five fingers pinched on his hand were as cold as winter snow, and in a daze, the joints seemed to have seeped into the frost air, and they were actually a little stiff from the cold.
This temperature is obviously not like that of a living person, and it is colder than those piles of bones that have been piled up for many years.
Holding Miss Wei Er's severed wrist, she thought of the piercing wind in the northern cold land, the heavy snow that covered her head and face, and the vastness that could never see the end.
Second Miss Wei chuckled, let go of her hand suddenly, and said in a nonchalant tone, "Don't worry, I can live for a long time."
Luo Quin watched as Second Miss Wei pulled open the broken wooden door, the wet door paper had already been dried by the wind, and was rattled by the wind blowing from outside.
There was a creaking sound from the door, and the cool breeze entered the room slowly, mixing with the fragrance of dust and bamboo wood.
There was mud outside the ruined temple, and several rows of horseshoe prints stretched along the road, probably left by the horses of the disciples of Feng Xiao Sect.
The slender bamboo leaves were blown all over the ground, many of which were mixed with the muddy mud, and the original emerald green was dyed an earthy color.
Luo Que turned to look at Wen Pingyi who was still trembling behind the Buddha statue, and said, "What did you just say?"
Wen Ping said awkwardly: "I don't know if the two chivalrous sisters can tolerate and tolerate poverty." He paused, with a slightly awkward expression, "Let's go together together.
Luo Que: "Could it be that you don't know the way?"
Wen Pingyi said in embarrassment: "Pindao is worried that he will meet those vicious and unreasonable Jiang Hu people again."
It refers to the extremely evil three tyrants.
"If you want to go with us, then hurry up and follow," Luo Quin said.
Wen Pingyi scrambled out from behind the Buddha statue, still holding the long stick with the cloth banner in his hand, and said: "Grandma, my servant..."
The faint voice of Miss Wei Er came from outside the door, "No need to report."
Wen Pingyi was shocked suddenly.
When Luo Que stepped out of the threshold, he heard the second Miss Wei who was feeding the horse say: "I have seen a lot of entanglement through repaying favors. I am here to cut off future troubles for you, lest you be indecisive again."
Luo Quin: ...
She took it to heart.
Wen Pingyi froze, and quickly raised his hand to cover his mouth. How could he have forgotten not to talk nonsense in front of these two people? If he is not careful, he may be "cut off".
Ma Biao screamed, and then bit the hay in Miss Wei Er's hand, chewing it in her mouth without listening, completely unaware of what these people were talking about.
Wen Pingyi ran out quickly, took his mule out of the broken stable behind the temple, patted the mule's head and said, "Be more obedient."
He rode on the back of the mule and staggered towards the path in front of the temple. As soon as he rode out, he saw Miss Wei Er who was pulling the rein on her horse, turned her head and pressed the white satin fence for Luo Qun, and said at the same time : "You have to be more obedient."
Wen Pingyi: ...
But Luo Que could only pamper her, who made Miss Wei Er's mind not so good.
The hooves of the horses were clattering, and the shorter donkey and mule followed behind.
Wen Pingyi tied the cloth flag to the mule, and held the rein tightly with both hands. He lowered his head and glanced at the contents of the wooden box, and saw that the ancient books and sticks inside were still placed smoothly, so he settled down. Make up your mind.
When he turned his head and looked forward again, the horse carrying two people in the distance almost disappeared. He quickly raised his voice and shouted: "You two heroines, wait for the poor!"
There are many inns and teahouses built on both sides of the official road along the road, and many businessmen are walking on the road with their bags on their backs.
The further they go, the more people they meet.People from the rivers and lakes can be seen everywhere, either holding a long sword or a big knife on their shoulders, wearing strange clothes and looking different.
There was a Miao girl from the south, carrying a small bamboo basket on her waist, and a green snake poked its head out of the basket.There are also swordsmen from the north, who are tall and tall like trees.There is also a luthier from the east, with a long piano on his back, a modest gentleman, with a gentle and elegant appearance.
All kinds of people gathered here, although they didn't communicate with each other, they all went in the same direction, probably they were summoned by the lord of Xiaoyao City.
In order to avoid being entangled by those who received the order to hunt down and kill, Luo Quin took off a fence hanging on the side of the horse, and put it on for Miss Wei who was holding the reins.
The village roads passing by are sparse, and the villagers live scatteredly. Many refugees gather here, huddled in temporary sheds, just to wait in a long line to scoop a bowl of rice porridge.
Many people were crying bitterly, and the crying of children seemed to cut through the sky, screaming and screaming.
They were dressed in rags, their faces were yellow and emaciated from hunger, and they all stared intently at the cauldron of porridge in the distance.
The person who gave the porridge was dressed in purple brocade clothes. The fabric was a good material that ordinary people couldn't buy, and every stitch was very delicate.There are snow-green vertical water patterns embroidered on their foreheads, and slender swords are pinned to their waists, and white jade beads are tied on the sword tassels, which are exquisite and beautiful.
Luo Que had met people from Happy City before, and they looked like this, but she had a faint feeling that something was wrong.
Wen Pingyi, who was following behind on a mule, had his eyes lit up, but said in a timid voice, "Look, I said that the Lord of Xiaoyao City is upright and kind, and he gives porridge and rice to the refugees every day."
After finishing speaking, he glanced at Miss Wei Er, trembling, for fear that his quick talk would touch the scales of this great god again.
Second Miss Wei just frowned and looked at those porridge givers, snorted coldly and said, "They are not from Xiaoyao City."
Wen Pingyi was dumbfounded, he subconsciously wanted to refute, and then remembered how many people in Jianghu had excellent ears, so he lowered his voice and said, "How could it be that they are not from Xiaoyao City?"
He glanced at the purple-clothed swordsmen who were serving porridge in the distance. They looked like people from Happy City, but he really couldn't figure out why they weren't.
Luo Quin also frowned slightly, and when the white satin was swinging, he saw the faces of those people clearly from the gap, and then his gaze dropped to the twin swords at their waists.
The scabbard is about two fingers thick, and the sword in the scabbard must be thinner.
The golden hilt and sword guard, the black scabbard, and the copper sheet wrapped on the scabbard are carved into strange patterns.
The clothes belonged to Xiaoyao City, but the swords held by these people were obviously not. She had never heard of Xiaoyao City using double swords.
Even the wiping foreheads they wear are obviously a little strange. The snow-blue vertical water patterns are the usual patterns in the east of Tianshui City, how could they appear in Xiaoyao City, thousands of miles away.These people wear their foreheads like this, as if they are covering something.
Luo Que pursed her lips and said nothing, telling her instinctively that something really happened to Happy City, if so, it would be even worse to go to Happy City, and it would waste time.
The horse and the donkey and the mule stopped in the distance, and the two of them immediately wore fences on their heads, their belts were flying, and their long sleeves were fluttering. There is also a cloth banner with the words "fortune-telling by touching the bones" tied to it.
The three of them were really conspicuous, and many refugees looked at them, and as expected, they also attracted the attention of the group of purple-clothed people.
Seeing the suspicion on the faces of those people, Luo Que frowned, reached out and grabbed the rein from Miss Wei Er, trying to turn the horse to the other side, and then hurried away.
In order to reach the rein, she had to stick to Miss Wei's back.
Second Miss Wei also withdrew her gaze, and just as she was about to ride her horse away, a jade white hand suddenly stretched out from behind, with five fingers as thin and straight as smooth as onions, and fingertips as round as pearls.
Afterwards, the back was soft and warm, and it was Luo Qun who pressed against her.
She raised her slender eyebrows slightly, and seeing the hand stretched forward as if catching a tiger, she immediately grabbed the rein and staggered aside.
The two hands were intersected, and the moves were dazzling. In Wen Pingyi's eyes, there was only an afterimage.
He wondered why the two hit each other for no reason, and when he was about to persuade him, he suddenly saw that Miss Wei kicked the horse's belly, and then the horse galloped forward.
He stared at the horse running away in a daze, and then came back to his senses, and hurriedly rode on the donkey and mule to chase after it, which made him really choked up.
The second Miss Wei suddenly kicked the horse's belly, and the brown horse ran forward as soon as it lifted its front legs. Luo Quin hadn't grabbed the rein, and when he was about to sit up straight, he leaned back and hurriedly held the horse. He touched Miss Wei Er's arm and held it tightly.
Through the light and thin cloth, the two are close at hand again.
Afterwards, Luo Que heard the man say, "Are you aware of being afraid now? If you are afraid, hurry up. As a medicine man, you will inevitably attract the attention of others. No one will treat you like this except me."
Luo Que realized later that the sudden move of the second Miss Wei to ride the horse just now must have been intentional again.
She thought to herself, forget it, since we have already come here, it would be a pity not to visit Xiaoyao City, anyway, this Second Miss Wei might not be able to make it to Qingfeng Island alive.
The author has something to say: Luo Qin has already started the self-defeating mode
Miss Wei Er: I am still alive and well, how could you treat yourself as a widow early on?
Luo Que: This is more exciting
