And this salvation is now coming to enthusiastic people. Why is Haoyou's daughter E Feiying so weird? As a Chinese, he despises the Chinese, and as a woman, he wears men's clothing. At an age where I was supposed to obey my parents and obey my destiny, I still refused to get married. When conditions arise and conditions cease, we still need to trace the cause of the effect.
While lamenting that fate was still on her side, Miss E Wu couldn't help but open her heart and express her longings. As the carriage gradually approaches Xiahe Town, the scenery of the past comes into view. They look both familiar and unfamiliar. After all, many years have passed and countless places have been submerged by wind, sand, soil and water, but the feeling of being among them is still the same as before.
She smiled, her eyes narrowing in laughter.
Everyone has fallen into a state: when the long-suppressed emotions in the heart can no longer be suppressed, all it takes is an opportunity to fall into a complete mental trance for a period of time. In this case, the concepts of time and space will be blurred, and everything you feel outside will seem real or illusory. Only the feelings in the heart and the tears in the eyes are the indelible truth.
Ever since her brief separation from everyone, E Feiying has always looked depressed and extremely annoyed. Like an injured little girl, even though her calves were slightly rougher than those of an ordinary woman, there was a pair of scimitars with wonderful arcs placed next to her. She cuddled up to her "Sister Murong" without any scruples, staring at the world outside the window and softly singing old nursery rhymes.
All in all, although she is facing a stranger who meets her by chance, Miss E Wu now shows a look that even those who have served her for several years have never seen before. This look is very different from the rumored heroine who dares to love, hate, and defeat countless enemies.
"Sister Murong. You are so gentle and lovely, no wonder that guy likes you so much..." E Feiying held Murong Yan's hand as if grasping a life-saving straw, fearing that it would be broken accidentally and that she would not be able to hold it firmly. Let it slip away and say coquettishly: "I almost framed you two for others. Now, I expect you to give me some comfort..."
Murong Yan glanced sideways at Bai Feng, who was sleeping soundly on the other side, and whispered softly: "Maybe it's because I know that no matter how strong a person is, there will always be times when he needs help from others, right?"
"Actually, my cousin is nothing like Bai Shaoxia... But, I still think of him inexplicably." E Feiying also glanced at the young swordsman secretly, and then asked: "He... is really asleep ?”
Seeing Murong Yan nodding her head, Miss E Wu continued: "He! He is neither literary nor martial. He only knows some herbal medicine. His family does not have much wealth or fame, let alone being on a par with our family. I don’t understand why I still think about him..."
Before the girl next to her could respond, E Feiying took up the conversation and recalled: "Perhaps it's because when I was a child, I often went in and out of my cousin's house... At that time, because my father had always suffered from having no sons in the family, I always wanted my mother to have a child. But when it was my turn to be born, my mother caught a cold, so we both had to take good care of ourselves."
"So, you have met Mr. Zhang?" Murong Yan asked.
"For the convenience of medical treatment, and because my cousin's family has been practicing medicine for generations, I entrusted my mother's family to take care of it." E Feiying replied: "I stayed there for several years. Later, my mother left, and my After recovering from health, he left that place. I once wanted my cousin to come to propose marriage, but my father always held a grudge against their family for not being able to save my mother, and he was afraid that the family was not in the right place, so he gave up many times!"
"Presumably Mr. Zhang must have something special about him, right?" Murong Yan responded, and the carriage suddenly stopped moving forward.
What followed was a shout from in front of the car. This sudden change interrupted the whispers between the two girls, causing everyone in the carriage to gradually wake up from their drowsiness, including Miss E Wu who had just collapsed. She seemed to be very dissatisfied with others disrupting her confession, so she immediately put on her two swords and followed Zhao Kuo, who was riding a horse, out of the car.
I saw two rows of horses blocking the middle of the road. Two men who looked like guards were leaning on two spears respectively, pointing at the noble young man. They called each other and asked, "Who are you? Where are you from? Where are you going?" go?"
"We are just passing merchants. We are going back to the north, but we just happened to pass by this place." Zhao Kuo waved his hand and hurriedly blocked the barrel of the gun and replied.
"Did you know that after passing this level, the area ahead is the Xiahe Town area?" A horse-faced officer put away his spear, put it next to his chin, and said: "The plague is very serious now, so it's not that we don't welcome everyone. , just for everyone’s consideration, you’d better take a detour!”
"But... we have something urgent and we really can't take another detour!"
"That... also... also... can't be done!" Another thin-faced officer next to him worked hard and finally uttered half a sentence: "Father... father... parents have given orders, don't dare... dare not from!"
Zhao Kuo saw that the guy was stuttering badly, so he didn't plan to reply to him. Seeing that E Feiying happened to appear behind him, he turned to the horse-faced officer and explained: "Brother the officer, to be honest, look at the girl next to me. She came all the way here just to be here. The town is looking for the second brother I haven’t seen for many years. In view of this sincerity, why don’t you be a little accommodating?”
"Is this... a girl?" the horse-faced officer leaned on the barrel of his gun, scratched his head and asked.
Seeing that the other party was so disrespectful, E Feiying immediately lost her temper and said angrily: "Why, can't you see?" Seeing the two officials shaking their heads, E Feiying was no longer polite, and immediately pulled out the two swords on her back and struck out with a sword. The deputy looked like he was about to kill and behead him, and threatened: "I'll ask you again, will you give way?"
Seeing this momentum, the two officers mostly guessed who the other party was and showed timidity. Zhao Kuo, who was on the side, was afraid that E Feiying would cause trouble again, so he asked her to put away her weapon and took her aside to talk secretly: "Auntie, this is not your family's territory. If you offend others, you and I will not even think about it. Take advantage!"
"What are you afraid of! Look at how timid they are. Let me bluff them again, and they will get out of the way!" After saying that, E Feiying broke away from Zhao Kuo's strong arms and went over to wave her arms. Dao made a lot of nonsense.
I saw Miss E Wu taking out the "blood letter" from her fold and saying vividly: "This is a letter written by the doctor Zhang Yi in your town. I was ordered to come and deliver the letter. At this time, there is an urgent need. , if you dare to delay for even a moment and something happens, I’m afraid you won’t be able to escape the blame!”
The two officials were dubious, but also thought that this matter involved the critical life and death of Xiahe Town, and it was really not a trivial matter. To be cautious, he opened the level and let them enter the town.
Along the way, there are endless hills and green forests on both sides. Unexpectedly, after crossing the checkpoint, the green forests and green spaces suddenly decreased, as if cast by gods in the sky. The barren yellow land gradually filled the surroundings, and the only remaining green leaves on the sad branches were about to wither.
This midsummer, which should have been full of vitality, turned out to be as desolate as late autumn. Thick smoke was rising from the bottom of the hill in the distance. A closer look revealed that many people were holding a funeral there. White plain clothes, dark coffins, and yellow earth are intertwined under the bright blue sky.
The mourning down the slope seemed to reach up to the official road, and the people in the carriage were also affected by this scene. Seeing the coffin burning in flames, the dead relatives will never see each other again. When life comes to an end, it is just like this: no matter how you lived before, it will only turn into sparks and ashes in the end.
"Is this a natural disaster?" E Feiying, who has lived in the boudoir for a long time and is deeply protected, can only sigh to herself. At the same time, she may be starting to worry about her cousin's situation in her heart.
