It is getting late, and the setting sun dyes the entire sky red, and is dazzled by the lush green mountains towering in the distance.
In Su Ling's arms, Xiaolan was already asleep. He smiled faintly and gently picked up Xiaolan. As soon as he walked to the front of the house, Scholar Bai came over and said to him with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work."
Oh, this little girl can only sleep so sweetly in your arms."
Su Ling handed Xiaolan into Scholar Bai's arms and said with a smile: "Children, tell me a story and you will fall asleep quickly."
Scholar Bai put Xiaolan on the couch, turned around and asked Su Ling: "But the stories you told her these days are really new. I have never heard them before. Where did you learn them?"
Su Ling laughed and said, "I will make it up and sell it now, as long as she is willing to listen."
Scholar Bai nodded and said, "You still don't want to eat at my place?"
Su Ling nodded and said, "It's time to go back. There is food at home." Scholar Bai did not hesitate to stay. He knew in his heart that it was not because Su Ling had food at home, but because Su Ling knew that there was not much food left at home and there was no strong labor force.
, Su Ling ate it by herself, and the family would miss one meal.
Su Ling bid farewell to Scholar Bai and walked back home.
The sky was dark, and I could faintly hear the barking of dogs in the deep alley, together with the waves of the river in the distance, one after another, and I suddenly felt peaceful and calm.
Su Ling had no intention of indulging in it. She only knew that if she came home late, her mother would definitely scold her.
He lowered his head and hurried on his way. He didn't know how long he had been walking when he suddenly heard someone's voice: "Two young masters, this place is too remote. We are just rushing on our way. We are afraid that we will miss Sutou. We will have to fight in the mountains tonight."
late."
Someone replied: "If there is a house in front of you, go and ask if you can borrow it for one night. Just give me some extra money before leaving." Then he seemed to remember something and said: "You have to talk to the villagers carefully. Nowadays, the war is in chaos. You are a big-hearted person."
, don’t scare others.”
There seemed to be a sullen giggle.
Su Ling raised his head and looked forward under the moonlight. He vaguely saw three people on the path at the end of the valley in the distance, talking and walking in his direction.
As I got closer, I realized that there were indeed three people and three horses.
When Su Ling wanted to take a closer look, these three people were already in front of him.
These three people obviously also saw Su Ling. One of them walked up to him quickly and said, "Hey, kid, is there anyone here nearby?"
The sound was thick, like thunder.
Su Ling looked up and saw that the man in front of him had a black beard and a dark complexion. He had a pair of bull's-eyes that seemed to be shining. He was tall and over a foot tall. He looked like a black tower when he walked over. Su Ling felt a little scared.
He heard that his parents often said that it seemed that bandits and bandits had this look.
Su Ling was stunned on the spot, but before he could answer, footsteps sounded behind the big man from the Black Tower, and two other people walked quickly, and the words came immediately: "Lao Dian, I just said you should speak more politely, he is still a child, it scares me to cry.
Are you here to coax me?"
Su Ling was furious for a moment, and then smiled bitterly. In his current state, it was useless to argue.
When the two people came closer, Su Ling took a closer look: they were both dressed as young men, but their figures were quite majestic, especially the one on the left, who was more than eight feet tall and wore a green hat.
, there is a piece of green jade in the middle of the brim of the hat. Although Su Ling does not understand the quality of this jade, but looking at the color, you can tell that it is extraordinary. This man is dressed in plain white. Although the texture of the clothes is ordinary, it has a certain smell.
He was indescribably noble. The man next to him was dressed in Tsing Yi and had a good appearance. The two of them were not very old, and their movements were quite steady.
What is particularly eye-catching are the three horses behind the three people. Those horses are certainly different from ordinary people's horses. They are extraordinarily strong and strong. It seems that they are all good people on the road.
Just when the young man in plain white clothes was about to speak again, the big man from the Black Tower stepped over, his huge head straight up, as if he was about to touch Su Ling's face before stopping, with a pair of big black bull's eyes.
When I stared at it, it looked even bigger.

He said angrily: "Hey, kid, where are your adults? Why did you come out alone?" Su Ling felt the heat coming from the big black man's breath over and over again, while cursing in his heart: You are the kid,
Your family is full of children!
The young master in Tsing Yi gave the big man in the black tower a hard push, smiled kindly at Su Ling and said, "My little friend, is there an inn in our place?"
Su Ling originally didn't want to talk to them because this big man from the Black Tower was really scary. But when he heard them asking if there was an inn, he became interested.
Maybe my inn, which has not seen a guest in eight hundred years, is about to open.
Su Ling raised his hand, pointed to the west where the lights were flashing, and said, "The nearest and only inn within a radius of dozens of miles is right there."
After saying that, he turned around and wanted to leave. Although it was a business, he didn't want to lead the way for these three people, especially the strong man who looked like a big black bull. Besides, if this business came to the door, he couldn't run away, and he couldn't live in his own home.
Yes, they have nowhere else to look for an inn.
Su Lingfang turned around and felt a figure flash in front of her. She suddenly felt that her left wrist was tightly grasped by someone, and the force was extremely painful.
Su Ling immediately grinned and shouted: "Ouch! What are you doing? I'm a kid, I don't have anything valuable!"
In times of crisis, Su Ling still felt that it was easier to protect herself by saying she was a child.
In front of Su Ling's eyes, the young master in plain white clothes was already standing in front of him like lightning, and his wrist was firmly grasped by him.
The young man in plain white clothes didn't say anything, he just grabbed Su Ling's wrist and looked at her tightly. Su Ling struggled vigorously, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get rid of this young man's hand.
It's like a pair of pliers, tightly clamping his hand.
The young man in green's eyes fell on Su Ling's wrist at the same time, seeming a little unbelievable.
Su Ling knew that no matter how hard he struggled, it would be useless, so he had no choice but to let the young man in plain white clothes hold him, and shouted loudly: "You foreigners, what's so good about your wrists..."
The young man in plain white clothes did not answer, but his eyes kept wandering, and after a long time he asked: "If you want me to let you go, that's fine, but where did the bracelet on your wrist come from?"
As he spoke, his eyes were still staring at the bracelet on Su Ling's wrist.
Su Ling was a little confused.
Hezhu really encountered a bandit. The only valuable thing he had on him was this bracelet. He secretly complained in his heart that he didn't want to bring a broken thing. His parents wouldn't allow it, saying it was
Now it seems that my lifeblood is out of the question, but it may be the lifeblood of my life.
Su Ling hurriedly shouted: "You robbers have taken a fancy to this bracelet of mine. I'll give it to you, but don't try to kill me."
When the young man in plain white clothes heard this, he smiled faintly, glanced at the big black man and said, "Old Dian, look at us, you really think we are robbers."
The big black man scratched his head, seeming a little embarrassed.
The young man in plain white clothes seemed to feel that his behavior was indeed inappropriate. He quickly pulled his hand back and said with a kind smile: "Little brother, don't be offended. It's just that I saw that the style of your bracelet is quite novel, so there is something a little strange about it."
I forgot about myself."
Su Ling secretly thought, I believe you are a ghost!
Just as he was about to speak, the young man in plain white clothes said again: "Little brother, can you tell me where you got this bracelet?"
To be honest, Su Ling himself couldn't figure out the origin of this bracelet. He didn't know how many times he asked his parents, but they were also vague and couldn't explain clearly.
But with his current posture, if he didn't tell where the bracelet came from, these three people probably wouldn't let him go.
Su Ling was rubbing her hand that was scratched by the man in plain white clothes while thinking about how to make up lies.
However, he racked his brains and couldn't think of any reasonable and reasonable lies, so he had to spread his hands and said: "Do you want me to tell the truth or lie?"
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
The young master in Qingyi smiled and said: "How can you say this? It's naturally the truth."
"The truth is, I don't know the origin of this broken bracelet. I heard from my parents that I was born with it..."
The young man in plain white and the young man in green looked at each other. They didn't speak for a long time, seeming to be thinking about something.
After a while, Su Ling saw that they didn't speak, so he said sarcastically: "I can go now."
Mr. Subai thought for a while, nodded and said: "Of course it can... Little brother, did you just say that the inn is in the west?"
Su Ling ran away. He had never run so fast in his life. After three times, his figure was blurred in the night.
"Don't you want to know more clearly?" The young man in green said solemnly.
"How to ask? He really doesn't seem to know the origin of that bracelet...but I can't be wrong...the format of the bracelet can only be...forget it, don't make things more complicated.
, this is Zhang Xiao's Wanyang realm after all." The young man in plain white clothes looked at the place where Su Ling disappeared, seeming to have something in mind.
The night is billowing before my eyes, the moon is pale and the stars are sparse.
"Let's go to the west. There is an inn there." The young man in plain white clothes walked towards the path in the dark first.
"Lao Dian... talk to the shopkeeper properly when you meet him! If you continue to be so reckless, I will punish you by not drinking for three days!"
"If you don't let me drink, you might as well kill me..."
The three figures disappeared into the night.
When night falls, only the silent Cangshan Mountain and the humming mountain wind remain.
Su Ling didn't even know how she ran home so quickly that she poured the corn porridge into her stomach and was still out of breath when she wiped her mouth.
The mountain people's dinner was thus dealt with. Those river fish no longer had any attraction to Su Ling Yiran.
After eating, he ran back to the back room. Outside the room, Aunt Su was complaining to Su Ji about the fishing in the river in Chengjia Village. Su Ling didn't want to listen, because recently he always listened to his mother nagging her over and over again.
this matter.
He thought carefully about what happened on the way back to the mountain. Who were those three people? Looking at their clothes, they seemed to be no ordinary people. Where did the bracelet on his wrist come from? It seemed that the young man in plain white clothes was very curious.
He raised his left wrist. Under the dim candlelight, the somewhat ugly bracelet of unknown quality seemed to glow faintly with a pale white light.
For a moment, Lidya Su looked a little crazy.
I don't know how long it took, but Su Ling's thoughts were interrupted by Aunt Su's call: "Ling'er, there are guests staying at the door. Mom and dad are busy in the kitchen. Go and greet them."
Su Ling responded, her thoughts seemed to be still on the bracelet, and she walked towards the door of her courtyard in a daze.
The mountain breeze blew, and Su Ling shivered and suddenly woke up.
Damn my grandma!
Aren't it those three people who came to stay at this time? If I let them hold on to see if the bracelet is small, if it really kills me because of the bracelet, it will be over.
Su Ling hurriedly wanted to hide in the house, but three people and three horses had already walked in front of the courtyard door.
First, a big black man walked up quickly and said: "Store, we want to stay in the hotel, can we get a room?"
It was impossible to hide, so Su Ling had no choice but to bite the bullet and smile at the three people in front of the door: "Fate, fate, we meet again."
There are three people in front of the door: a big man in black, a young man in plain white clothes, and a young man in green clothes.
The young man in plain white and the young man in green were also surprised and blurted out: "So your family runs an inn... why didn't you tell me just now."
"You didn't even ask...you only asked about the broken bracelet..."
