Mirror: Twin Cities - Chapter 39
The pot fell to the ground with a snap. Then he shook his head, leaned down and picked it up in silence, with a wry smile: I knew this before, but I was still a little disappointed? At this point, is the obsession of believing in the “human heart” still immortal?
“Everyone only talks about three minutes, so I can’t give up all of my heart.” Since childhood, the elders in the family taught him the same way when taking him on a business trip. What’s more, Murong’s family is engaged in jewelry business, this world Who is not interested in getting money?
I have eaten many calculations of how many bright spears and dark arrows have been eaten, but he hasn’t grown up yet, and was almost cheated by that girl.
He reorganized Yuyi and walked back to the road, hurriedly: Before dark, he must rush to Taoyuan County to meet the Xijing master entrusted by his mother, otherwise, he would be alone with his precious treasure, and he might die at any time.
“Hey! Hey! What are you doing?” After walking a few steps, someone behind him suddenly called out, “Want to leave me alone?!”
Murong Xiu suddenly turned his head back-between looking back, I saw an angry girl in a flashing blue feather coat rushing out of the bushes on the side of the road, yelling and catching up, holding a basket tightly.
The bright breeze from the east is blowing slowly, and the cloud wasteland is full of the verdant green of early spring, bright and transparent, and in the large shades of green, the girl in the feather coat is like a little butterfly that has just emerged from its pupa, working hard Fly over with flapping wings.
For some reason, he suddenly felt hot in his heart, and he couldn’t help laughing.
“Murong, you fool me!” Out of breath, Sheng was furious, pointing to his nose and cursing, “Do you want to take the opportunity to throw me away? Damn you, you are not afraid of me taking you A basket of yao grass burned as leaves?!”
Murong Xiu wanted to hold back his laugh, but couldn’t help but rejoice for some reason, and only asked, “Where did you go?”
“I, I’m going to the woods over there…” The Sheng suddenly stuttered and blushed, then lowered his head and replied like a gnat, “I think I have eaten my stomach in the morning…”
“Ah? Hahaha…” Murong Xiu couldn’t help laughing anymore.
“What are you laughing at! Glorious! You will definitely have a stomachache later!” Annoyed into anger, the Sheng cursed fiercely, and threw the basket he was holding into his arms, “but I looked at it for you and kept it with me all the time. “
“Ah? I don’t want it anymore,” Murong Xiu quickly threw the basket back to her, curling his lips. “It must be very smelly.”
“You!” Na Sheng made a big blush, then lifted the lid and smelled it, relieved, “It’s not smelly, don’t worry!”
Murong Xiu couldn’t help laughing even more when she saw her sniffing the basket of leaves honestly.
“Is it funny?” Na Sheng was a little inexplicable by him, and laughed like this when he watched the coy young jeweler along the way. Young and mature, he can’t remember how long he hasn’t laughed so comfortably. He only felt unspeakably relaxed and happy in his heart, and shook his head: “Okay, I’m not smiling, I’m not smiling. Let’s hurry up.”
Walking side by side, looking at Murongxiu, the Dongba girl sighed and said: “You look so good when you smile. You should smile more-when you are not smiling, it looks like everyone owes you money, ten years old. Years old.”
“Eh?” She was taken aback by her blunt words, Murong Xiu suddenly laughed again, “Can’t blame me, I have been learning the way of business from my family elders since I was young. Where can I talk to you when I am not an old adult?”
“Well, so there are so many brothers and sisters in your family, don’t you play with you?” That Sheng was surprised.
“Murong’s younger generation is fighting for the family property. I am the only one in the long room. I can’t hide from the spear and the arrow. Where can I play?” Murong Xiu was taken aback for a while, and there was a bitter smile at the corner of his mouth. “By the way, I used to There is a Nine Sister, who came from Sanfangshu, and her personality is the same as you. Later, when she grows up, she completely changes – Murong’s family is a big dyeing vat. If she doesn’t change color, she will become an alien and be squeezed out.”
“Huh?” After all, he didn’t understand the complicated struggle in the big family, and Na Sheng expressed his puzzlement. Murong Xiu didn’t want to spend any more words, just said: “Anyway, this time I come to Yunhuang. If I can’t do this business well, I won’t even be able to return home.”
Na Sheng was surprised: “No, doesn’t your father and your grandfather love you?”
“Grandpa?” Murong Xiu smiled, and shook his head, “I am a child of the mackerel, a monster, how come it hurts?”
“Mairen?” Na Sheng was startled, surprised, “Is it just a mermaid? I heard that all of them are beauties, and they can sing, weave, and the tears that fall are Ye Mingzhu…but that’s just a legend. Ah! Does the shark have anything to do with you?”
“Yeah.” Murong Xiu smiled, nodded, and began to tell the girl the secret of his life experience, “You are really amazing, yes, my mother is indeed more than two hundred and forty this year. She is a shark, two My father came to Yunhuang more than ten years ago…”
Along the way, I told my own life experience all the way, thinking that Sheng would be dumbfounded. Unexpectedly, Na Sheng just looked up at him dubiously, and said: “It sounds… so mysterious, even more bluff than when I gave someone a fortune-telling.”
“Why should I lie to you?” Murong Xiu was a little unhappy, brushing away the falling hair, pressing the helix, “Look, the gills are still there.”
“Oh!” Na Sheng jumped up, leaned over to look, and was amazed, “It’s really like a fish!”
“Right.” Murong Xiu didn’t wait for her to move her hands and feet, and then let go of her hair, “but my father is from Zhongzhou, so my hair and eyes are black, and they are the same as ordinary people, for more than 20 years. It has grown to be what it is now.”
“It’s a pity… If you are like a mother, you can live for hundreds of years.” Na Sheng sighed.
“What’s so good about that?” Murong Xiu shook his head, “At that time, watching the people around you die one by one, it will be hard for you not to die-you didn’t see my mother.”
“Well… why doesn’t she marry anymore?” Na Sheng thought, suggesting, “Hundreds of years! She can marry several—”
Before she finished speaking, she quickly fell silent when she saw Murong Xiu’s face suddenly sinking.
The good atmosphere suddenly cooled down again. Murong Xiu kept on rushing silently. Na Sheng followed behind with a basket of hay on his back, unhappy, and complaining secretly that the speed of the person in front of him was really unbearable. Know which of his dead spots cannot be touched.
There is a forest of thorns ahead, and the two walked in one after the other, carefully avoiding the barbs, looking for a path in the grass. Murongxiu walked fast, almost throwing her off, Na Sheng was anxious, ran a step forward, accidentally “chilling” her clothes were hooked, she knelt on the ground, hurriedly untied her hands and feet. In the end, it ended up by abruptly tearing off a piece.
Seeing that a piece of the brand new Yuyi was missing, Na Sheng felt distressed and complained that Murong Xiu hadn’t turned his head to pay attention to her. As soon as he couldn’t help but had an attack, he suddenly saw Murong Xiu who was walking in front of him hurriedly turning back, his face pale, as if someone was chasing him behind him.
“Shhh…” She was about to speak, Murong Xiu suddenly leaned down and covered her mouth, and said anxiously, “Don’t make a noise, someone is chasing me! It looks like a robber who kills and overpowers.”
“Strong, robber?” Sheng stammered and blurted out as he heard a group of people approaching.
While they were talking, the group of people had chased into the woods, getting closer and closer, scolding and searching.
“Damn, I’ve already met that kid head-on just now! He ran away as soon as he turned his head, as clever as a rabbit!”
“Old Qi, don’t worry, this forest is not big, there are many thorns, he can’t run fast, we just search slowly.”
“Grandma’s, the manager wants to scold us again after delaying time-to get that kid, he must be maimed.”
Obviously well-trained, a group of people fanned out, slowly crawling for trees, and the sound of footsteps gradually approached.
Na Sheng immediately thought of the brutal group of robbers on Tianque, only scared to sweat on the palms of his hands. Suddenly she felt light, and the basket had been taken away by him. She was about to question, and she heard Murongxiu’s whispering instruction in her ear: “Wait a moment when I run out to lead them away. You stay where you are and don’t let them see it. That’s right. , Take this coat well and don’t lose it, Xueyongzi will also put it back on you, lest it fall into their hands…”
“Hmm!” Even though she was scared, she shook her head vigorously to express opposition to such an arrangement.
“Idiot, go to the Ruyi Gambling House and find Xijing! I’ll leave a mark along the road.” Murong Xiu pressed her head firmly, hiding under the thorns and hurriedly ordered, “This is the safest arrangement. Don’t listen! Or the two will die together!”
Hearing the sound of search getting closer and closer, he stopped talking, pressed the sheng under the thorns, lifted the basket with withered grass on his back, jumped up, and quickly ran out of the thorn forest.
“There! There!” Sure enough, the opponent saw him as soon as he moved, and the group of bandits immediately chased after him.
Na Sheng was anxious and wanted to stand up and run out, but the thorns caught her clothes and hair. When she finally stood up, the group of robbers had already chased out and ran on the road.
“Murongxiu! Murongxiu!” she yelled, stood up, her clothes torn, her hair loose, and she was embarrassed. As soon as he stood up, the things on the placket fell to the ground: a blanket, a Xueyongzi dressed with a copper hairpin, and the “Foreign Lands”—that was almost all his belongings.
Na Sheng untied the wraps and suddenly understood the Yaocao inside at a glance.
“Damn it, count me.” Thinking of what had happened before, she cursed, but standing in the thorny forest, she raised her wrapped right hand and placed it in front of her, staring blankly, suddenly her eyes reddened.
