Chapter 46: Linxian Town (3)
"Do you want to go out today, Xiaowu?"
Yu Shu and Shu Xiaowu sat on both sides of the small square table in the inn.
The golden sunlight penetrated through the clouds, through the large open window bars, and shot into the house like fine silk threads, illuminating the harmonious scene in it.
"Well, I don't want to go rough (out)."
Shu Xiaowu swallowed the red bean cake in his mouth and said vaguely. The red bean cake rust is sweet and tastes good in the mouth, but if you bite too much at one time, you will choke a bit.
She finally swallowed it, and she felt that her throat was forced to thicken. Picking up the sour plum soup at hand, the reddish-brown soup flowed down the throat, diluting the sweetness before, but left a touch of fragrance.
Shu Xiaowu sighed comfortably, feeling that this life is like this, and it is also enjoying it
After taking a mouthful of sour plum soup, she picked up another piece of tuckahoe cake from the small pastry tray placed on the table, and bit into it like a small hamster, biting off the crumbs on the table, and she didn't care.
Since Shu Xiaowu got up late and often didn't want to go out early, she developed the "bad" habit of getting her breakfast.
Yu Shu, a big customer, asked for this, plus a generous reward, the store naturally happily took the job to her, carefully selecting cakes for her every day, and even adding some melon and fruit snacks to please the guests. .
As long as Shu Xiaowu is in a good mood after eating, the rewards will keep coming.
The two have been in Linxian Town for a month and a half, and Shu Xiaowu, who calls himself a "little transparent", can only eat, drink, sleep and sleep every day, and occasionally go out for a walk. die.
Shu Xiaowu has already defined herself as a "house" attribute. Anyway, no matter how big a town is, there are only a few fixed shops she is interested in, and if she visits a few times, she will not be able to show more interest. Shu Xiaowu expressed no interest in the areas in the town that were separated out for the exchanging of spirits and treasures
She might as well be in the inn, at least she can play with her little spirit mouse... Although when she was playing by herself, Yu Shu would have a distorted smile, watching the transparent body running around in the room. Weird mouse.
Similar to Shu Xiaowu's idleness, Yu Shu is inseparable from her almost every day. If she is not ready to go out, he will never force her to go out, only two people will stare at her in the room.
That's right, two people are in the same room!
For the first night, when Shu Xiaowu found out that she wanted to be alone in the same room, she refused in her heart!
It's a pity to tell the other party this opinion humbly, but Yu Shu actually said with a smile that made her memorable and enough to stir people's hearts, saying, just watching her sleep, she won't do anything to her.
ˋ_ˊ* She still can't compromise!
Is he monitoring himself in disguise?
...However, the arm can't twist the thigh, and the difference between Shu Xiaowu's arm and Yu Shu's thigh is clearly visible.
She was finally defeated.
O(╯□╰)o As long as Yu Shu smiled and insisted silently, she would have absolutely no room for resistance.
Woo that person is not her! (covers face)
Fortunately, Shu Xiaowu didn't have much ability, and he managed to take out his hand after sleeping.
She originally thought that there were other demons in the room and she would not be able to sleep, but when the hour came, she slipped into a dark and sweet sleep.
When she slept until dawn, the sun was drying her buttocks. She blinked her sleepy eyes and looked at the room, and she could definitely see Yu Shu's iconic red clothes and his iconic clothes that could attract people and bewitched. smile.
After many days like this, Shu Xiaowu once thought that he really watched himself fall asleep in the inn every day, until... One day in the middle of the night, she woke up inexplicably.
Habitually, he glanced into the room with his eyes half-open, only to find that the room was empty, with only a dying oil lamp lingering on and exuding the last heat, apparently no one was there.
The first reaction of Shu Xiaowu, who was still awake at the time, was to turn over and continue to sleep, rushing to Duke Zhou's next venue. Mi Mi was about to fall asleep when she suddenly woke up!
Yu Shu is not here!
As soon as this thought appeared, another thought emerged: Now, isn't it a good opportunity to run away (^o^)/
When she put on her clothes and stood on the corner of the street tremblingly like a thief, while the cold wind was blowing, there was still a trace of guilt that Yu Shu left without saying goodbye. But when she thought that she was able to leave him and live a hopeless new life, she was still overjoyed.
However, what happened next made her feel the malice of a stranger.
The memory jumps back to that night.
In the quiet night, the crescent moon is crescent and the stars are full, tomorrow will be a good weather. Shu Xiaowu thought after looking at the sky.
She was sneaking out of the inn, walking along a narrow alley by moonlight. There was not a single light on the dark street, but she still tried her best to walk away from the town with her memory.
She didn't know that a certain sneaky figure was already staring at her in the dark.
Suddenly, a tall and sturdy man who was in the darkness and almost merged with the night appeared behind her, moved swiftly to restrain her hands and feet, and covered her mouth with a rag with a strange smell.
The accident happened suddenly, even though Shu Xiaowu was frightened, he still resisted strongly. It's a pity that her strength is really weak, and she is really a waste in Limo's mouth. Even if he used his hands and feet together, he couldn't resist the opponent, and he even tried to give the opponent a claws and a foot unexpectedly.
The man in black looked at Shu Xiaowu for a long time, but he was still so energetic, and said "Huh" in astonishment. But it has already started, and there is no room to stop.
Without waiting for Shu Xiaowu to make other movements in panic, he was bound by the five flowers and pulled his hands to the unknown area in the dark.
Unable to speak, she could only flutter as much as she could, trying to make a little movement and hope for survival.
It's a pity that on the empty street, there was only the crisp sound of the broken bowls left by the cool wind blowing, and there was not even a single dog barking that could be called for help.
Woohoo Could it be that this bad guy is going to pull her away and kill her, no!
After being dragged away for a while, Shu Xiaowu identified the basic location along the misty night, which seemed to be the place where the currency was in the town.
I don't know how long she was dragged away, but the person who caught her took her into an empty courtyard, pushed her into a dusty and stained room, locked the door vigorously, and stood outside the door and simply did After a seal, I went to chat with other accomplices.
The main entrance to escape was blocked, and Shu Xiaowu, who was terrified, leaned against the crack of the door, trying to hear something through the voices of the people in the hospital talking. It's a pity that after listening for a long time, only a few words popped into my ears: "kill", "no spiritual power", "nothing"...
Even if she didn't hear it all, she could probably guess that those people really wanted to kill herself!
There were a lot of things piled up in the pitch-dark room, but just by touch alone, Shu Xiaowu could tell that it was some piles of firewood and worn-out cloth bags and tents, which were not at all lethal. The room is surrounded by walls, not only without windows, but also without a small hole to climb out of.
In an extremely inconvenient posture, Shu Xiaowu walked around the room with his tied hands on his back. He felt that his hands were covered with dust and smudges with some sticky marks, but he still didn't find a way to escape.
She was in darkness in her heart, and she was about to cry because of her fear and struggle. It was the first time she had met a bad person so close and was on the verge of death. She was very scared.
How much she regretted staying in the inn without listening to Yu Shu's words, and how much she hoped that everything she had experienced was just a dream that she had not finished. It's a pity that the pain of hitting the wood before and the discomfort of the blocked blood vessels in the hand are so clear.
At this moment, she realized Yu Shu's consideration and concern, his kindness to her was so deeply imprinted in her heart.
"Bang"
Outside the door came the sound of the wooden table falling to the ground, followed by a few grunts.
Shu Xiaowu's heart trembled, and his trembling leg was sticking to the door, holding his breath, trying not to make a sound to pay attention to the movements outside.
I guessed in my heart that maybe those few people did too many bad things, and they were called by the enemy. Now, she hopes that the other party will not find out about her own, otherwise if he thinks that she and them are accomplices, wouldn't it be a disaster?
It's a pity that the sky didn't go as expected, she actually heard the footsteps approaching little by little, and the footsteps fell very lightly, but for some reason, Shu Xiaowu heard it very clearly.
With the sound of his clothes flipping and the sound of his gently approaching footsteps, her heart beat faster. Until... that person walked to the place next to her and sighed leisurely.
Subtle red flashed in the night, the lock on the wooden door separating the two cracked with his sigh, and then the door opened without wind.
The crescent moon outside the door was shrouded in dark clouds, and the entire sky seemed to be engulfed by fog, so dark that it was almost impossible to distinguish anything. But since the cold fragrance on him drifted by the wind, Shu Xiaowu recognized him just by listening to his heartbeat.
The demonic red eyes outside the door were half-closed, and there was a little tiredness inside. Looking at Shu Xiaowu, who was in a state of embarrassment and red eyes, he didn't say a word of reproach, but just spit out a sentence helplessly.
"Xiaowu, don't run around."
He pulled her into his arms, who shed tears unconsciously.
Memory pulled back.
Since that experience, Shu Xiaowu has never dared to go out alone with Yu Shu on his back. Even if he woke up in the middle of the night and found that he was the only one, he went back to sleep.
Hey the outside world is too sinister.
"Yu Shu, when are we leaving here?" Shu Xiaowu sipped the cake in his mouth, blinked and asked.
Carrying it in this town every day is not free at all.
It was also after the thrilling night attack that Shu Xiaowu no longer wanted to go for a ride in the "delivery base camp" in the town. He always felt that the bad guys lived there!
As for Yu Shu, it was still Shu Xiaowu who wanted to go there, so he accompanied her wherever she went.
"Hmm." Yu Shu replied thoughtfully. Without answering, he looked at Shu Xiaowu, who was picking up another plate of cakes and eating happily, and the corners of his mouth lifted, his long and narrow eyes were charming but not coquettish.
With her slender fingers, she picked up a piece of red bean cake that she had eaten half a plate of, and lightly broke a small piece and put it in her mouth.
As soon as the pastry is put in the mouth, it slowly sands and becomes slightly sweet.
A little tired.
Yu Shu frowned slightly, rubbed the scraps in his hands, and didn't look at that place again, obviously he didn't like the smell.
"Qi..." Shu Xiaowu pursed his lips and made a small dissatisfied sound. He was even more direct in his actions. He grabbed the plate of mung bean cake to his side, put the two plates in front of him together, put the small half of the tuckahoe cake in his hand, and then picked up the mung bean cake and ate it.
While eating, he cast a stubborn look at Yu Shu.
Yu Shu hooked her lips happily once again when she saw how she was protecting her food. The cold tiredness in his eyes has faded a lot.
Shu Xiaowu looked at the change in his eyes, a little strange, but he didn't ask, picked up the sour plum soup and took another sip. The weather has been getting hot these days. After a meal, a night of sour plum soup is a must-have for cooling down and relieving the heat.
After taking a sip, she couldn't help but glance at Yu Shu again. In fact, Yu Shu felt a little strange to her today, but specifically, she couldn't tell, it seemed that she was just a bit hostile? !
"If Xiaowu doesn't want to stay here, we'll leave today."
Before Shu Xiaowu's peeking eyes could be retracted, she heard him say something like this, and was stunned for a while, before she returned the word "oh" in a daze.
He was leaving suddenly, with no sign at all.
After leaving, Shu Xiaowu simply packed up his simple things, put them in a small Qiankun buckle, and was ready to embark on a new journey.
When it comes to Qiankun buckle, it can be regarded as a baby she can't put down recently. She bought the Qiankun buckle in a regular magic weapon store in the town. Of course, the price is not to mention, but the function is not good.
The Qiankun button is a space jade button, the specific size can only hold the items in one room, and only some dead objects, but what Shu Xiaowu likes is its appearance.
Different from ordinary jade, the Qiankun buckle presents an extremely rare pink-purple color under the ordinary environment, with a warm color and a transparent luster. Under the sun, the color will slowly settle into a milky white, but this feature is extremely rare in the world.
When Shu Xiaowu saw it in the store for the first time, he felt that it was very similar to the color of candy, and he liked it very much. In addition, it had the function of changing color.
Although the things were a bit more expensive, they still let Yu Shu buy them for her.
Shu Xiaowu doesn't think it's too much for him to suddenly ask for this deduction: anyway, Yu Shu is a big devil and is not short of money; moreover, this is what he owes her!
Originally, Shu Xiaowu thought that Yu Shu's so-called "leaving" meant that he had already found the place they were going to, so he directly opened up the space again, and dragged her through a door-to-door distance, and then he had arrived in a new country. !
It's a pity that they really stepped into the road.
