The people in the car kept talking about the golden tiger that had appeared recently. Yan Xiaoyu was anxiously thinking about her problems at night. While everyone was talking, the driver suddenly shouted from the front, "It has appeared, the golden tiger has appeared..."
Some people opened a gap in the car curtain, and some were trembling in fear in the carriage. Yan Xiaoyu hugged the package and glanced outside through the gap. At that glance, time seemed to stop in an instant.
Her heart was so painful that she couldn't breathe. The hands holding the package gradually turned white. Her tears flowed down without any warning. She didn't know why her heart felt so painful when she saw this golden tiger. She
He buried his cheek on the package and cried loudly.
Someone next to her was comforting her, "Girl, don't be afraid, there are so many of us, and the tiger won't dare to hurt anyone!"
Some people were hooting, "Let's go together and kill the golden tiger. Maybe its skin can be sold at a good price!"
"No, don't!" Yan Xiaoyu shouted. She raised her tear-stained cheek and looked at the golden tiger walking slowly through the gap in the car. The sun illuminated its brilliant fur as smooth as satin.
Her heart couldn't help but tremble. When she turned around, the carriage was getting farther and farther away from Jin Hu.
The people next to her didn't know what happened to Yan Xiaoyu, and they were so frightened by her appearance that they didn't dare to say anything. The driver in front slowly whipped his horse whip, and the carriage raised large amounts of dust on the ground.
Yan Xiaoyu leaned on the carriage of the carriage, and the people next to her looked at her quietly. She realized that she had lost her composure, lowered her head, and held on to her package tightly.
The town in front is called Butterfly Town, which is famous for all kinds of beautiful butterflies. Many businessmen come here to sell enough butterflies, make beautiful specimens, and then sell them to dignitaries for appreciation.
As soon as Yan Xiaoyu arrived here, she felt depressed. She looked at the approaching dusk sky and couldn't help but beat her heart. She watched the travelers behind her packing their carriages and walked into the inn first.
Everyone has already confessed that they will not come in to disturb her without her permission, and all the fellow travelers have agreed to gather at the door of the inn at dawn tomorrow and leave Butterfly Town together.
She closed all the doors and windows and sealed the gaps in the windows, so that even if she turned into a butterfly and wanted to fly out, it would be impossible.
At night, stars twinkled in the sky, and the vast sky was decorated with incomparable brilliance. Xiao Ninglan paused while looking at the dancing butterflies.
Unexpectedly, the butterfly was still shining like a firefly. He looked at this strange sight and paused for a long time.
There were merchants selling butterflies passing by, and he smelled the strange fragrance on their bodies.
It is said that butterfly merchants do not use nets to catch butterflies. They use the incense on their bodies to attract butterflies to them, and then open the bags to let the butterflies fall into the net.
In the inn room, there was a butterfly fluttering its wings. It was anxiously looking for an exit in the room, but the room was sealed tightly. No matter what, it could not fly out.
The fragrance became stronger and stronger, and the butterfly became anxious. Finally, when it fanned a bunch of flowers on the window sill, the noise attracted the attention of the waiter. The waiter knocked on the door, but there was no movement. He opened the door to check, and found nothing. Instead, it flew away.
An unusually beautiful butterfly emerged.
Shaking his head, the waiter closed the door. Wasn't there a girl living here? Why is the house empty now? He remembered that the girl never went out after entering.
The butterflies kept flying while smelling the fragrance. The businessman playing the flute in the distance stopped playing. He looked at the flying colorful butterflies and jumped up with joy. He was so lucky that he actually attracted a withered leaf butterfly.
.
With such a beautiful pattern and such a large shape, once it is made into a complete specimen, it will definitely fetch a very good price.
He used the fragrance to make the butterfly stop on his finger, and gently stroked the butterfly's wings. He passed by a handsome man. The man looked at the butterfly on his finger and stopped.
The businessman looked at the man warily and was about to put the butterfly in his hand back into the bag. The man looked at the struggling butterfly and said calmly, "How much does this butterfly cost? I bought it."
The merchant looked at him suspiciously and put away the bag containing the butterfly, "This is called the withered leaf butterfly. It can be sold as a specimen for thirty taels of silver. Can you afford it?"
Xiao Ninglan smiled slightly, took out a piece of gold from her sleeve, and placed it heavily in the merchant's hand.
The businessman looked at him in surprise. Before he could react, the bag in his hand had been taken away by Xiao Ninglan.
He took the bag and walked far away until he reached a place where there was no fragrance. He loosened the mouth of the bag and said, "Poor little thing, come out and fly away from here quickly. It's very dangerous here!"
The butterfly slowly flew out of the bag and stayed on the back of Xiao Ninglan's hand, unwilling to fly away for a long time.
Xiao Ninglan touched its wings and sighed, "Let's go, don't miss humans. In fact, humans are the most dangerous animals!"
The butterfly seemed to understand his words, and flew around in front of his eyes. As it flew, it turned back to look at Xiao Ninglan, and finally turned into a black spot in the night sky and disappeared completely.
The next day, Yan Xiaoyu woke up in the wilderness. She looked at the morning sunshine and her mind was a little unclear. She seemed to be dreaming about Xiao Ninglan. He touched her cheek and smiled at her lovingly.
She must be too tired during the day. She is a butterfly at night. How can a butterfly dream? Also, it has been so long. Xiao Ninglan doesn’t know if she is still alive. He has been poisoned. There is no cure for the poison. He must be alone.
Have you gone?
She wanted to go back to the inn to get her package, but found that when she went back, she didn't know how to explain it to others. The people in the inn clearly didn't see her going out, but she came back from outside. She might as well give up the package.
Walking a little disappointed, looking at the environment here, she remembered the treasure map that Xiao Ninglan had told her. Yes, he had hidden a lot of things around here, and she could take some out as money.
She quickly found the place where he hid his things, took out the jewelry, exchanged the banknotes, bought a carriage and clothes, and walked towards the south alone.
