(twenty one)
The young man somehow began to miss the feeling of being drunk on the cruise ship in Jiangzhou City that night. Because what I feel now is very similar to that time. His head felt dizzy and swollen due to unknown reasons, and he couldn't help but think wildly, and his body showed fatigue from the hard work just now. So he simply stretched out his body, found a good position, and lay down on the top of the covered bridge to rest.
The stars were dim that night, and only the bright moon came to shine. The thick clouds are still moving with the wind, just like Bai Feng's current thoughts: as long as the slightest movement of wind and grass will bring back some of his memories, but his ideal will only become more unwavering like the bright moon.
He placed the flying needle given by Mei Niang in front of his forehead and looked at it again and again. Even though a long time had passed, he still seemed unable to believe that such a sweet-talking woman could be so intimate with him. However, his joy is visible to the naked eye. If someone were to pass by him at this time, they would definitely think that this person was possessed by evil spirits and smile foolishly at an iron needle alone in the middle of the night. So crazy, yet so cute like a child.
Yes, he was very satisfied. At the same time, he is also very clear that this sense of satisfaction does not come from the "beauty's kiss", but from the joy and gratitude of a person who was trapped in a power struggle and was liberated because of him. His sword is wielded for these people, precisely because he himself is such a person.
"Prosperity, wealth, fame and wealth. These two things are just fleeting to me." Bai Feng collected the friend's gifts and murmured: "What can really last forever in the heart should be such a sincere and passionate feeling. ?”
With such a hazy sense of satisfaction as if he was drunk, he rested there until dawn, until the rooster crowed, and then hurried back to the inn to meet his friends.
I don’t know why, but the young man always felt that a beautiful woman would suddenly walk out at a certain corner or in a certain direction in such a deserted street. As if there was a connection in his heart, after Bai Feng inadvertently glanced at the string of copper bells that he had carried with him for dozens of days, on the way to the inn, a greeting that he had been looking forward to for a long time came from his heart.
"Brother Feng?" The sleepy-eyed girl looked sad and almost trotted to Bai Feng. Then she held his injured forearm with one hand and stroked his cheek with the other and asked, "Where are you going? No one can be found in the inn, and Sister Mei Niang and Mr. Gan are also missing."
"Haha..." Bai Feng gently held the opponent's delicate hands, fearing that his hands, which had been stained with blood not long ago, would destroy the only tranquility in the world, replied: "I'm going to see them off! They have already I have left here and plan to go to the Kingdom of Zhou in the west to avoid the limelight."
"Um... wouldn't it be difficult to see each other again?"
"Yes." Bai Feng nodded and replied: "We are about to set off, let's go back and get ready first? Look at your appearance, you ran out without washing your face..."
Murong Yan's face turned red, she rubbed her eyes with a smile and nodded in agreement. After speaking, the two of them returned to the inn hand in hand. After arriving at the inn and having a clear talk with the other three companions, he immediately packed his bags and got into the carriage that came with him. Qian Xi and Mei Niang only took away one horse and left the car with their friends. Although this move was not a great good deed, it gave Bai Feng and the others some convenience in their journey.
Several people took a carriage and found the medical clinic of Miao Nv Mengdie, planning to check on the two "hostages" stored there while saying goodbye. The plaque hanging outside the medical center changed from "Ji Ren Pharmacy" to "Xindie Pharmacy" for some reason, which naturally made the visitors very curious.
After Bai Feng went to the inner room and released the two captured swordsmen, Mengdie allowed Xiao Si'er, the drug boy who had been keeping the "hostage" all night, to go to sleep. Even though Xiao Si'er kept mumbling: "Master Mengdie, I haven't slept well for two days..." Mengdie didn't have any intention of being soft-hearted and asked him to continue ordering the remaining medicinal ingredients that he had not finished counting yesterday. He went to rest after finishing it. It seemed that the life of this little drug boy would not be easy in the future.
After hearing that Bai Feng and others were about to leave Yanzi Town, Mengdie naturally showed a very pity expression. But after seeing Ajuan, another Miao of the same race, her expression changed to an ambiguous sneer.
"Why, are you still thinking about what happened yesterday?" Mengdie smiled at Ajuan.
Zhao Kuo on the side expressed confusion and asked: "What happened?"
"Her? She wants to practice Gu with me." Mengdie replied: "How come the people in the clan would allow someone like you to go outside? Isn't this sending a sheep into a tiger's mouth?"
"I..." Ajuan looked at Zhao Kuo helplessly, "I don't know either... Anyway, I don't want to be bullied by others, no one can do it! Can you just teach me two tricks?" Ajuan said, then became coy. She got up and used the coquettish trick that she would only do when facing her mother-in-law.
Mengdie couldn't resist the sweet words of this junior, so she gave the "golden-eyed" chrysalis and the seeds of poisonous flowers she raised to Ajuan, and secretly taught her the secret of cultivation so that she could support her well.
After thanking Mengdie, Ajuan returned to her friends with a smile on her face. Before leaving, he did not forget to wave and thank Mengdie again who was watching him leave under the plaque of "Xindie Pharmacy". Then he got on the carriage and started his journey north.
I don't know what the doctor of the "Xindie Pharmacy" is thinking about at this time, but from her lovely smile, we can at least know that the ordinary and peaceful life in the pharmacy may be boring, but at least it is happy. Especially for that promise about waiting, no matter what, she will continue to live in Yanzi Town.
The carriage began to move forward slowly again, toward the unknown and the future. Looking at the adventure and life in Yanzi Town behind me for a few days, I felt filled with emotion. I think of new people I met, people I separated from, and interesting things that happened. The thoughts of everyone in the car were wandering to nowhere, and no one might have thought of what would happen ahead.
"Hiss~hiss~his, click!" A strange sound came from under the car, and the car stopped and could not move any further.
"What's going on? Brother Zhao?" Bai Feng poked his head out of the car and walked to Zhao Kuo's side. I saw Zhao Kuo whipping his horse several times with his whip. The horse neighed and tried to run forward, but the heavy carriage still stopped.
"Maybe there's something wrong with the wheel?" Zhao Kuo replied.
The two men got out of the car one after another, ready to see what the problem was. It was discovered that all four wheels were damaged to varying degrees. It seems that it has been destroyed by humans and has now reached the point where it cannot be used after the journey ahead.
"How could this happen?" Bai Feng asked in confusion: "Who would do such a thing?"
"Brother Feng? What's wrong?" Murong Yan also leaned out of the car and asked.
Suddenly, a loud arrow flew past Murong Yan's eyes and hit the carriage. When Bai Feng saw this, he immediately drew his sword and escorted Murong Yan into the carriage. Unexpectedly, after the sound of arrows, various figures came out of the woods on both sides of the road. But a moment later, the carriage was surrounded.
"Hehehehe! You little girls and brats! Why don't you fall into the hands of my 'Tongtian Arm' now!" A tall, blue-shirted man slowly approached from the side of the carriage, and at the same time motioned to the people in front of the carriage. The boy holding the bow put down the bow string, adjusted the rattan gloves on his hands, and said: "You brat, I advise you to give up your resistance and hand over your women and money, otherwise, your life will be in danger!"
Seeing this situation, Zhao Kuo was unable to act rashly, let alone made any move to resist. He looked at the young swordsman on the carriage again, indicating that he didn't know what to do.
Faced with being surrounded by more than a dozen heavily armed thieves, Bai Feng could not find any way out for a while. Hearing the faintly anxious chatter coming from the carriage behind him, his usually steady and calm heart was inevitably in a state of turmoil.
"Hey! That boy with the sword, did you hear me? Throw the sword over, and I will spare your life, grandpa!" Tongtian Arm was aggressive and threatened again and again, thinking that the other party would respond appropriately. Unexpectedly, the young man showed no fear at all, but instead sneered at him.
"Haha, are you kidding? I gave you the sword, how can I kill you?" Bai Feng showed his evil eyes again, shocking Tongtianzhu and taking half a step back.
"You brat! If you don't eat the toast, you'll be fined with wine! Come on, shoot the arrow!"
