New Life of Broken Cedar - C79
When Gu Mo Yan’s heart trembled as he arrived at the city gates, there was only one exit. Anyone who wanted to enter the city would have to pass through this barrier. However, the city gates were tightly shut, and Gu Mo Yan was alone. He looked at the high fence and at several distant places where people were keeping watch.
Gu Moyan did not dare to act rashly. If he could not make it today, then there would be tomorrow. At most, he would leave early tomorrow.
Gu Mo Yan didn’t return to the inn. He found an old and dilapidated house that he could temporarily avoid the cold wind outside and stayed inside for the night.
“Hey, wake up!” Don’t rob us of our sleeping place. ”
Gu Moyan felt a slight pain in her back, as if someone was kicking her. He opened his eyes in a daze and looked at the two people in front of him by the light cast from the broken roof.
The clothes they had found at that place gave off a sour smell. Their hair was disheveled as they used rags to help their heads. Their cheeks were especially dark, but it was obvious that they were brothers.
The two of them were also staring at Gu Moyan, and they were just woken up. Their blurry eyes gave others a bit of pity and their mouths were slightly open, but they had a good impression of her. The two brothers had only recently escaped from the neighboring city and knew nothing about what was happening in the city, so they naturally did not know that the person in front of them was the magnificent Imperial Concubine Gu. Even if they had heard of such a person, they had also rumoured to be a beauty that could topple empires and topple empires. But the person in front of him was just a good-looking person.
The two brothers saw that Gu Moyan did not speak for a long time, and the person who had kicked Gu Moyan awake asked, “You don’t know how to talk?”
Gu Moyan had been worried about what would happen if the two of them found out about her, but she hadn’t expected that the hazy night sky would allow her to escape the title of Imperial Concubine Gu.
He nodded and gestured with his hand. He did it as if he were a deaf mute.
In the modern age, he had taken this course before. When he had autism and was unwilling to talk to others, he would sometimes make gestures.
The two brothers looked at each other. They didn’t understand what Gu Moyan was talking about.
The slightly smaller person thought for a moment, then said, “Mute, you want to stay here for the night, do we agree?”
Gu Mo Yan’s eyes flashed, and he nodded his head. Although he didn’t want to express this, it was more or less enough.
“Then, it’s not impossible for me to live here, but I still need some things to pawn, right?” The person who kicked him scanned his entire body and said with slight disgust.
“Yes, yes.” Gu Moyan’s voice sounded from the depths of her throat as she rummaged through her bag.
Gu Moyan opened her purse and handed it over to the person who just spoke without a second thought.
“Hng hng!”
“Brother, is this not good?” As his little brother said this, he felt some sympathy for Gu Moyan.
“Then do you want to eat it or not? You talk about being hungry all day. ” The larger one knocked the smaller one on the head, reprimanding him.
At this, the smaller man had his clothes ripped off. He looked down and the mute was gesticulating again.
The little man looked at it and told him to do it again before he guessed, “You want us to drive you out of town tomorrow?”
Gu Moyan nodded. She realized that if she went out alone, she would definitely attract the attention of others. It would be better if she mixed in with the rest and left together. This way, it would be a bit easier.
