The children were so excited that they pulled Mu Juan'er to run wildly on the street, and they could not hear the sound of her stopping them.
Many small hands pulled her arms and the corners of her clothes. Mu Juan'er didn't even have time to take the bamboo stick that she never left, and was dragged by a group of children, stumbled out of the alley without direction, straight
Run to the edge of the East City.
While running towards the east gate, the children sang together: "Edelweiss, melting snowflakes, falling from the sky, flowers on the ground, flowers bloom like snow like flowers, snow fallen to the ends of the world..."
Edelweiss, melting snowflakes.
Fells in the sky and flowers on the ground.
Flowers bloom like snow and flowers.
The snow falls and flowers bloom to the ends of the world...
Mu Juaner ran out of the wind alley and ran to the streets as the children's singing.
She didn't even bother to take the blind stick, and stumbled deep and shallow, unable to find the direction at all. She heard the cheerful laughter of the children. She had never run out so recklessly, and she felt panicked and helpless.
At first, Mu Juan'er could hear the hawking of shops on both sides of the street. Gradually, the road became quieter and quieter. Later, there were the crying of ordinary children, the screams of adults, and the barking of dogs in the yard...
In the end, even the voices disappeared completely, and the sound of children singing nursery rhymes came out in my ears, and only the howling wind was left.
Mu Juan'er felt the wind getting heavier and heavier, and she curled snow particles on her cheeks and made a pain. She kept calling for the children to go back, but the children ignored it as soon as they played.
They were already attracted by the white and crystal snow in front of them and the beautiful flowers. No one heard Mu Juan'er's anxious call at all.
No one noticed her face red from the cold and trembling body. They let go of her hands and ran into the sea of flowers like a group of birds returning to the forest. They completely forgot Mu Juan'er's eyes.
not see.
Mu Juan'er was unprepared to go out. She had no thick cotton coats to avoid the cold except for a home-cooked cotton robe. The wind and snow in the suburbs were much bigger than in the city. She stood alone, feeling the bone-broken cold wind leaping into her clothes.
The blood on his body was frozen and cold.
What made her most uneasy was not the coldness, even the laughter of the children became farther and farther away. She was so scared that she didn't know what time it was, nor where she was, and how far she was from home.
If the children forget her here, she will not be able to find her at all. She will be frozen to death after spending a night in this snowy and ice.
Mu Juaner groped forward, trembling and frozen lips, constantly calling out the children's names. She tried to distinguish the children's voices, but the children's voices became weaker and weaker, and soon they were completely complete.
Submerged in the howling wind.
Mu Juan'er completely lost her direction. She could only walk aimlessly. She could not notice it herself. She was actually walking contrary to the children and was getting further and further.
Not far from the sea of flowers, there is a dense forest. In front of the simple hut in the forest, there is a sloppy old man and a beautiful young man with a beautiful appearance and decent clothes.
The sloppy old man is Ning Fengzi.
The man with outstanding appearance is Zhuo Jinzhang.
"In a few more days, it will be an important day. Be sure to refine my pills." Zhuo Jinzhang reminded with a serious expression.
Ning Fengzi stroked the goatee: "Add another five hundred taels of gold, otherwise it wouldn't be made."
Zhuo Jinzhang frowned: "I had already given you all the Gu Zhi bones in the transaction. The price of the elixir is enough. Why did you still speak up?"
Ning Fengzi looked scoundrel: "One time and another time, I don't know which one of my shops is burned. I'm homeless now. Look, I'm almost at begging for beggars when I live in this place.
Of course I have to make money. If you don’t make money, you can let me drink the northwest wind!"
After saying that, he saw Zhuo Jinzhang staring at him and said with a smile: "Anyway, you are the son-in-law of the richest man in Lu Wucheng. Five hundred taels of gold are not money to you at all, so you will be pitiful to your old friend. Besides,
I'm also helping you hide your identity, and you should pay a hush money."
Zhuo Jinzhang took out a stack of silver notes from his sleeve and threw them into Ning Fengzi's arms: "I've given the money. If I can't get my pills at that time, I will miss my time. Since you are
If you know my identity, you will naturally know my methods!"
Ning Fengzi rolled the silver notes casually, stuffed them into the dirty sleeves, and smiled at Zhuo Jinzhang: "It's okay to say it, and I'll make sure to refine the elixir you want on time, at the right time, at the right time, at the right time, with the right quality and quantity."
"Although the price I asked for by Ning Fengzi is a little higher, you can rest assured that the elixir I have refined. At least in the territory of your Menghua Sect, including Chengyu, I can count as many as one!"
After the business was negotiated, Ning Fengzi was about to turn around and go back to the house when he suddenly stood still.
He sniffed: "Huh? What's the smell? It seems like a woman. This person still has the smell of Jiusuiji, well, it smells fragrant!"
When he looked up again, he saw Zhuo Jinzhang staring at something not far away.
On the edge of the woods, a young blind girl was groping and walking towards this side.
Ning Fengzi smiled treacherously: "Oh, the little lady looks great!"
Zhuo Jinzhang licked the corner of his mouth, not hiding the greed in his eyes.
At this time, he stared at the gaze of the woman who was gradually approaching, like a wild wolf who had only been hungry for a long time.
"She is a mortal, and she actually has the smell of Jiusuiji, the smell of Lingmai and the fragrance of women's blood... It's really tempting. It seems that I'm lucky today!"
While speaking, Zhuo Jinzhang couldn't wait to fumble in the direction of the girl's progress and walked towards him.
At this moment, Mu Juan'er could no longer hear the children's voices except the howling wind in her ears. She was groping alone in the wilderness and calling, and no sound around responded to her.
Mu Juaner was panicked and afraid, and she unconsciously accelerated her pace. She accidentally stepped on a stone. She staggered and her body suddenly fell forward. She thought she would fall miserably, but she didn't dare to jump into one.
In the warm arms.
A gentle voice from a man came from above his head: "Little lady, be careful at her feet."
Mu Juan'er heard someone's voice, like a drowning man suddenly caught a driftwood, held the arm of the visitor with his back hand, and begged anxiously: "Good man, please help me see if there are a group of children nearby? If so, please help me.
I'll call the children back, please give me a thank you, thank you!"
Zhuo Jinzhang looked around and his eyes fell on a group of children running and playing in the distance, and said gently: "Child? There are no children here. There is nothing but a large piece of flowers in this place."
Mu Juan'er felt a chill when she heard this. She was about to ask for help. Zhuo Jinzhang asked gently, "Can the little lady's eyes not see anything?"
She nodded quickly.
Zhuo Jinzhang said gently: "Since my little lady is unable to move, can I send you home?"
Mu Juan'er didn't expect that she would be so lucky to meet a kind and enthusiastic person. She was grateful and thanked her repeatedly, and then told her whereabouts.
Zhuo Jinzhang held Mu Juan'er's cold hand and placed it on his arm. He walked very slowly, his behavior was meticulous, gentle, considerate and thoughtful.
Mu Juan'er felt much more at ease than before.
Although she could not see the man's appearance clearly, the other party exuded a gentle temperament like a scholar, which made her feel much more relieved.
She also smelled the man's body, which was very light and light sandalwood...
