bad
Chapter 4
When they returned to the inn where Li Lang and the others stayed, they saw Er Mao who had just met once came down from the room on the second floor. When they saw Ying Zhou, they were taken aback. Li Lang explained and introduced them to each other.It turns out that Er Mao's first name is Chen Pingan, and his nickname is Mao Zi. He and Li Lang are cousins. The woman who was on the road just now is Er Mao's mother and Li Lang's aunt, who is suffering from dementia.Not long after Ermao's father left, Li Lang's mother got the letter and asked Li Lang to go to his hometown to take his sister and nephew to the capital, so that he could take care of her.They were supposed to leave in the morning, but Ermao's mother got up early and ran out of the inn. Ermao woke up and saw no one, so the two hurried out to look for him, and it took them all morning to find him.
Ying Zhou thought to himself, that woman speaks fluently, has clear eyes, and can go out to buy cakes with money. From his point of view, she doesn't look like a fool, but he doesn't know much about ordinary people, so he doesn't dare to judge .Thinking of the wound on her hand again, she would still feel sorry for her, looked around, but did not see the woman, Er Mao said: "Mother is taking a nap in the room, I will bring her food up later, the three of us can eat first." .”
Li Lang took over the conversation: "Let Xiaoer get ready first, I'll take Brother Ying upstairs to wash his face."
Ermao nodded: "I still have a set of clean clothes. Mother accidentally made it too big. I think Brother Ying should be able to wear it. I'll go get it."
Li Lang and Ermao exchanged glances, "Then why don't you ask Xiao Er to bring hot water, brother Ying to take a good bath, and then have lunch. Aren't you going to the capital? It happens to be with us, why don't you go with us? Take care."
Ying Zhou was very embarrassed, receiving food and new clothes from others, and having to wait on the road, this kind of kindness is great.It's just that he really needs these right now, especially food. If he doesn't eat anything, he will probably become the first immortal to be starved to death in tens of thousands of years.He touched his nose, not willing to refuse, thinking that the kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring. Before leaving, the purple jade ring given to him by Nanling is said to be able to cure all diseases. Why don't you try it for Ermao's mother, maybe it can cure all kinds of diseases. The cure for dementia is also unknown.
Xiao Er quickly called for hot water, Er Mao put down his clothes, and left with Li Lang, leaving the room to Ying Zhou.The two returned to Ermao's room, and the woman sat cross-legged on the bed and hurriedly asked, "How is it?"
Er Mao said: "I didn't expect it to be a heartless person, but I didn't suspect it at all."
The woman said: "Don't be careless, last time it was just a little bit worse, did you tell someone to run away? This time you have to be more careful, first lie to the capital and then start, so as to avoid more troubles on the road."
Ermao nodded, "Don't worry, mother, Brother Lang's acting skills are good, and he can't wear it."
Li Lang said: "It's also a coincidence, he happened to be going to the capital, otherwise it wouldn't be so easy."
The woman said again: "I have looked at it carefully, and there is nothing to say about that face, Er Mao has a good eye this time."
Thinking of the young man's smile, Li Lang thought to himself that this time it might not only be good, it should be astonishing.
Ermao wiped his nose, proudly: "I can't compare with Brother Lang, it depends on the person. Brother Lang is not as accurate as I am."
Li Lang smiled and didn't answer, the three chatted a few more words, in order to prevent accidents, they decided to rent a car and drive back to the capital in the afternoon, and deliver the goods earlier to avoid long nights and dreams.
After planning the itinerary, the waiter from outside came to call, saying that the food had been prepared, and asked someone to go downstairs. Li Lang and Er Mao went out, and the door next door opened, and Ying Zhou came out wearing the clothes Er Mao gave him. Short, revealing the only pair of white brocade dark pattern boots, Ying Zhou had been wearing them before, and they were splashed with mud, which didn't go too well with the gray coarse cloth clothes on them.A linen hair rope was held between the snow-white tooth shells, and he raised his hands to tie the hair behind his head. With a simple tie, all the half-wet hair was tied up. He shook his head and shook the wet hair behind his head. Clean and neat.
Ying Zhou turned his head and smiled at the two of them: "Finally refreshed, thank you both."
Li Lang and Ermao were stunned in place.
After washing and cleaning, the young man's skin is white and flawless, like fresh snow on the eaves. His facial features are not tough, but they are not soft, and every detail is just right. , There is a masculine heroism between the brows, under the clothes that don't fit well, the ratio of shoulders to waist will be strong if it is more than one point, and weak if it is less. Such a body shape is obviously a man, but it makes you want to embrace it bosom.The corners of the youth's red lips were upturned, neither coquettish nor coquettish, just as Li Lang thought just now, the breeze and bright moon must be such illusory things, and all the worldly things are not enough to compare.If it is necessary to describe it, apart from the word "beautiful", there is really no other word that can be used.
Ying Zhou tied up his hair and picked up the white cat on the ground. He couldn't wait for the first meal after entering the world, so he thought he was tactfully urging: "Shall we go downstairs for dinner?"
"Eat...hehe, eat!" Er Mao came to his senses first, stabbed Li Lang who was still in a daze, "Go downstairs!"
This kind of beauty, let alone bamboo baskets and flower baskets, the whole capital can't compare with the sum of all the young men. Ermao rubbed his hands. After finishing this job, they can wash their hands in a golden basin and live a good life. How can they Not exciting?
Ying Zhou took two steps and two steps, and almost jumped directly from the second floor.
Four small dishes, two meat and two vegetables, the three of them sat down, Xiao Er brought rice, Li Lang served Ying Zhou a bowl, turned his head and saw Ying Zhou holding chopsticks, frowning tightly, with a nervous expression.
"what happened?"
"Well, nothing..."
It's not that he has never used chopsticks. He occasionally goes to the Immortal World and eats something. He uses chopsticks, but the frequency is too small. He is not very proficient in using them, and he is afraid that he will be exposed in front of Li Lang and Er Mao.
In the eyes of Li Lang and Er Mao, Li Lang thought he was embarrassed to move his chopsticks. Li Lang picked up a piece of meat and put it in his bowl. Er Mao said straightly, "Eat more, don't be polite to us."
Ying Zhou responded, imitating Li Lang's way of holding chopsticks, picked up the piece of meat tremblingly, and put it into his mouth.This meat is just ordinary Mushu fried pork slices. According to Li Lang and others, the fried meat is too old.Ying Zhou's eyes lit up, and he felt that the fairy body was complete. This salty fragrance was completely different from those faint fairy fruits and grasses in the sky. How could the food in the world be so delicious?Hey, it's no wonder the immortals in the sky always say that the world is good, it's so good - just take this one, this trip is worthwhile!
Li Lang and Er Mao next to him saw his agitated expression and widened their eyes in surprise, they couldn't figure out why he was so hungry, so they picked up a few more chopsticks for him and urged him to eat.It's also miraculous, I ran into such a top-quality product on the road, and I succeeded in just one meal, it can be seen that luck is coming, and it really can't be stopped.
Ying Zhou had been starving for five days, his chest stuck to his back, and he almost swallowed his chopsticks, and the two of them kept picking up food for him, and he was very satisfied with one meal, and he added two more bowls of rice.After licking off the last grain of rice, Ying Zhou put down his chopsticks, and said to the two brothers with a sincere look: "I owe you a favor, don't worry, I will definitely repay you."
Beside him, Xiaobai was lying on the long chair, flicking his tail, so leisurely, Ying Zhou poked him, and he gave a perfunctory "Mi" twice.Although Li Lang and Ermao couldn't understand, they had already obtained promises from a tiger and a big demon before they knew it.It's a pity that both of them don't know that compared with the money they are about to get, this promise is the real priceless treasure.
Er Mao said: "When you are away from home, you should help each other. It is not a kindness. Besides, it was my mother who caused you trouble in the morning. Brother Ying, you are welcome!"
He asked again: "Where is Brother Ying from, and what are you going to do in the capital?"
Ying Zhou said: "Well, I'm from the north, and I went to the capital to find someone." He said while thinking, Ermao, don't ask him exactly where he is in the north, and who to look for. Can't answer.
Fortunately, Er Mao is not interested in these two things, "Speaking of which, I have always called you big brother, and I don't know how old you are this year, maybe I am older?"
Ying Zhou blinked, he is around two thousand years old this year, he has not counted the exact number of 2000, he can't tell the truth to ordinary people, he can only say: "I am twenty this year."
"What a coincidence, I also happen to be twenty, in the year of Bingshen, when were you born? I was born in August."
Ermao was born short, so he looks young, but in fact, he just passed his 20th birthday a few days ago.Ying Zhou really can't tell his age, if you want to talk about his face, look at his tenderness, even if he says he is sixteen, people will believe him.But you can see his indifferent demeanor, especially the calmness and open-mindedness between his smiles, which seem to have been learned over time.But he is not familiar with the outside world at all, otherwise he would not be defenseless against them, he is a bit like a big girl who stays at home and stays at home. But he can't help showing curiosity about the things around him, he is calm and lively, this kind of contradiction is very strange in him, and you can't guess his age at all.
He couldn't remember how many years it was born, let alone the month, Ying Zhou thought to himself, if it snowed all day long on the mountain, it could be regarded as born in winter, so he said a December.
Ermao said happily, "So I'm a few months older than you, so I'll call you by your name from now on, and you can just call me Maozi."
After the three of them had eaten, Er Mao brought food for his mother and went upstairs. Li Lang said that he would set off after she had eaten. Ying Zhou couldn't help but feel a little worried when he thought about what happened in the morning, and asked Li Lang, "If Madam sees me, will you leave me?" What should I do as a bad guy?"
Li Lang hurriedly said: "No, my aunt has a bad memory and can't remember you. Besides, as long as Maozi is around, she won't get sick. If you say you are my friend, you and I can call her aunt, we But for ordinary people, it's strange to be called 'madame'."
Even though he was relieved like this, Ying Zhou didn't dare to let go of his heart completely.Half an hour later, Li Lang went to the back of the inn to fetch a car, Er Mao helped his mother down the stairs, Ying Zhou swallowed nervously, wondering if the woman would remember him, would she have to take another Beat chicken and eggs.
Unexpectedly, when the woman saw Ying Zhou, she smiled idiotically, it was completely different from the appearance of Sapo in the morning, she was quite gentle, she said to Li Lang: "Ah Lang's friends are just different, they look really nice."
Li Lang signaled Ying Zhou to go up to greet her and call her Aunt Chun. The woman seemed very happy, and she wanted to pull Ying Zhou into the carriage with him, and let Li Lang and Er Mao drive outside. Ying Zhou looked at her hand. He sat on the shaft of the chariot with Li Lang, watched Li Lang raise the whip in his hand, and shouted "drive", Zao Zima snorted, and pulled the chariot slowly away stand up.
Ying Zhou plucked Xiaobai's fur, the clothes Ermao gave were too small, and the fur ball couldn't fit into his arms, so Ying Zhou put him between him and Li Lang, Xiaobai lay on his stomach and flicked his tail, but it didn't matter. Cozy.
Li Lang asked, "What's the cat's name?"
Ying Zhou said it was Xiaobai, Li Lang smiled and said that the name was really appropriate, simple and easy to remember.
He paid attention to the blunt "王" character on the cat's forehead for a long time, and wanted to reach out and touch it to see if it was born or painted on it, but just as his hand got closer, Xiaobai turned his head , Grinning his teeth at him, the cat hair all over his body exploded, and let out a fierce cry.
Li Lang was taken aback, then withdrew his hand, Ying Zhou hurriedly fished Xiao Bai back, lightly pinched his belly, and said apologetically to Li Lang, "I'm sorry, he doesn't really like being touched by others."
Li Lang could only smile, "It is said that cats are not familiar with raising cats, and I don't know if I can see them, but this one is pretty good for you, recognize the owner."
They walked on the official road, and occasionally encountered vehicles and horses. The road was lined with dense forests. It was the end of summer, with red flowers and green leaves, birds singing and insects contending. It was very lively.
Maybe I was full, but the scenery that seemed bland yesterday turned out to be playful and cute. Compared with the two, Buzhou Mountain is really deserted.Ying Zhou looked at it with interest, thinking that when he returned to the mountain after this trip, he might as well set up a forest on the top of the mountain, plant more flowers and plants, decorate the top of the mountain, and add some interest.
But no matter how good-looking something is, the more you see it, the more it will look like that.The carriage wobbled, compared to Xiaobai's speed of thousands of miles a day, it was really slow, shaking so much that Zhou was drowsy.When he first came down to earth, he didn't notice any abnormality in this body, but after he was slashed and fell from the sky, the mana remaining in his body began to fade gradually. The first feeling was pain, and the second feeling was heat. After walking all night, I finally found a town. Most of the magic power in my body has dissipated, and I have become no different from ordinary people. I am hungry, sleepy, and tired. All kinds of feelings come to my heart.
"Brother Li, how far is it from the capital?"
Li Lang saw the way his eyelids were twitching, and said: "This place is not far from the capital, we will not stop tonight, and we will be able to enter the city tomorrow morning. If you are sleepy, go to sleep for a while, and you will be there when you wake up."
At this time Ermao opened the curtain and came out, saying: "Brother Lang, Ying Zhou, mother asked me to change with you, the sun is shining outside, you go in and drink some water, don't catch the heat."
Li Lang said: "It's okay, I just went this way. Zhou should go in first. The inside is narrow, and it's uncomfortable for three people to sit up. It's better to open up outside."
Ying Zhou was holding Xiaobai with one arm and listening with the other on his knees, but Ermao pulled him up, stuffed him into the carriage, and sat on the shaft by himself.
Aunt Chun was quite easy to get along with when she was not ill. She gave Ying Zhou a water bag, and stuffed a few pieces of snacks into his hand, wrapping them in a plain handkerchief, "If you get hungry on the way, just pad your belly."
Ying Zhou nodded, thanked, and stuffed the snack into his sleeve.The carriage swayed like this, and Ying Zhou couldn't remember when he fell asleep. Anyway, when he woke up, it was already dark. Aunt Chun and Er Mao were sleeping while Er Mao was snoring moderately. Face up, with one leg crossed, very comfortable.
The carriage was still running, Ying Zhou woke up Xiao Bai, hugged him and lifted the curtain, Li Lang turned his head when he heard the sound, "Are you awake?"
Ying Zhou responded, sat on the shaft of the car, and said, "Would you like to go to sleep for a while, I can drive the car."
Li Lang was surprised: "You know how to drive?"
Both he and Ermao felt that Ying Zhou should be a young man who ran out of a rich family, the kind who didn't touch the spring water with his fingers and didn't work hard.
Ying Zhou nodded and said, "Don't worry, it's fine."
Although he can't, he can let Xiaobai roar at the horse to ensure that it will run with all its strength until tomorrow morning.
Li Lang said, "Then do you know the way? From here to the capital, there are still several forks in the road. If you make a mistake, it will be a hundred and eight thousand miles away."
Ying Zhou had no choice but to give up, and took out the few pieces of snacks given by Aunt Chun from his sleeve, which were crushed a bit, and Ying Zhou picked out the most complete piece and handed it to Li Lang, "Then you should eat something," after thinking about it. Thinking about it, he said again: "Do you want some water? I'll go inside and get it."
Li Lang glanced at him, Ying Zhou's hand was half-raised in the air, holding a rough pastry with a small corner broken on his clean white fingertips, the white cat in his arms was waving its drooping long tail leisurely, the moonlight hit him On the face and body, gentle and comfortable.Li Lang couldn't help feeling a little turmoil in his heart. He hurriedly took the snack and swallowed it, turned his head and looked at the road ahead, and said vaguely, "No, aren't you going to sleep?"
"I can't sleep anymore," Ying Zhou threw a piece into his mouth, it was sweet, and it quickly shattered into powder, making a paste in his mouth, he licked off what was stuck on his teeth, and swallowed it all. , "It's finally cooler at night, but it's really hot during the day."
Li Lang said: "It will be the beginning of autumn in a few days, and it will be cool after a few rains."
Ying Zhou couldn't help looking forward to it. The alternation of the four seasons is a phenomenon that only exists in the human world. The growth of all things has its own laws. Spring plowing and autumn harvesting, summer sowing and winter breeding, compared with the fairyland where all seasons are comfortable, it is not interesting.
Li Lang tilted his head and looked at him from the corner of his eye, and saw that the corners of Ying Zhou's lips were raised, his eyes were shining, brighter than the starlight on this sunny night, and the cool night wind was blowing head-on, his face began to faint. Get hot.
He was a little uncomfortable, so he had nothing to say, and asked, "Ying Zhou, I haven't asked you yet. Who are you looking for when you go to the capital? Do you know where he is?"
In response to Zhou's hesitation, this question is really difficult to answer, even he himself doesn't know the name, how old, or where he lives, so he can only answer honestly: "Actually, I don't really know..."
Li Lang asked: "What about the name? Don't you know?"
Ying Zhou shook his head, "I don't know, but if I can see him, I should be able to recognize him."
"There are 10,000+ people in the capital, how do you find them? Then you go to the capital, do you have a place to stay?"
These questions are really difficult to answer one by one. Ying Zhou propped his head and fell into deep thought. After these few days of wandering, he has roughly figured out the situation. At least he knows that in the world, money is needed for food, housing and transportation. He's... penniless.
Seeing his distressed face, Li Lang guessed that he might not have any plans at all. The first thought in his mind was that it would be better to invite him to live in his house, but after thinking about it again, he remembered their plan——
When they arrived in the city, they found a reason to feed the medicine, and drove directly into the back alley of Qingshi Street. They did many business with the restaurants there. Bank settlement is convenient for everyone.When the time comes, what will happen to this person in the future will have nothing to do with me, so why worry about him, why worry about him?
What Ying Zhou thought was that he had already troubled Li Lang and the others a lot, so when he entered the capital, he might as well separate from them.Although the world is complicated and unpredictable, there must be a way for the car to reach the mountain, and there will always be a way.But before we part, we still need to get information about En, Ying Zhou said: "Brother Li, is Aunt Chun's illness serious? Tomorrow is dawn, I'll show her, maybe there is a way to cure it."
Li Lang was taken aback again, of course Aunt Chun is not sick, she is just acting, could Ying Zhou see that Aunt Chun is pretending to be crazy and is trying to test him?It's no wonder that he has a lot of eyes. In this business, you have to be careful in everything before you can sail for thousands of years. Li Lang asked, "Do you know medicine?"
He is not good at medical skills, but the magic weapon given by Nan Ling should be reliable, but this is the same as his age, so he can't say it directly, Ying Zhou said: "It's a little bit."
This is a little bit, how much is it, Li Lang's heart is a little drummed, and then he thinks that the medicine they prepared is just the most common Mongolian sweat medicine, what should he do if Ying Zhou knows the medicine and makes him smell it?
"Aunt Chun became like this because of the stimulation of her uncle's death. It's not serious, and she's fine on weekdays. You..." He wanted to say no more, but if he said that, wouldn't it be more suspicious, so he changed his words: " When you settle down in the capital, I will bother you to show her. Since you have nowhere to go for the time being, why don't you go to my house for a while?"
Ying Zhou said: "Then I'll show Aunt Chun when I go to Beijing. As for the residence, I've caused you a lot of trouble, I really shouldn't bother you anymore, I'll find a place for myself."
Li Lang said it perfunctorily, but he had another calculation in his heart, "Help me watch the car for a while, I'll go in and get something."
Ying Zhou nodded, Li Lang got up from the shaft of the car, got into the car, and sure enough, he heard the sound of rummaging for things. Aunt Chun woke up and asked Li Lang what he was looking for, Li Lang replied that he was looking for some medicine to refresh his mind.
After a while of chatter inside, Maozi also woke up and yawned loudly, and suddenly he heard Li Lang shout: "Ying Zhou."
Ying Zhou leaned back, pushed open the curtain with his back, half of his body entered the compartment, and asked, "What's wrong?"
It was so dark in the carriage that I couldn't see clearly. Suddenly, a strange smell came into my nose, sweet and a bit greasy, like the fragrance of flowers, mixed with something else.Ying Zhou wanted to sneeze a little, but he took another breath without holding back, and felt that his consciousness drifted a little far away, a bit like the feeling when his soul is out of his body, everything in front of him is covered with a layer of white air.
"What's this?
After a breath, the world spun, his eyes went black, his body fell backwards uncontrollably, and he fainted.
The author has something to say: Although he is stupid and greedy, he is very easy to feed...
Ying Zhou thought to himself, that woman speaks fluently, has clear eyes, and can go out to buy cakes with money. From his point of view, she doesn't look like a fool, but he doesn't know much about ordinary people, so he doesn't dare to judge .Thinking of the wound on her hand again, she would still feel sorry for her, looked around, but did not see the woman, Er Mao said: "Mother is taking a nap in the room, I will bring her food up later, the three of us can eat first." .”
Li Lang took over the conversation: "Let Xiaoer get ready first, I'll take Brother Ying upstairs to wash his face."
Ermao nodded: "I still have a set of clean clothes. Mother accidentally made it too big. I think Brother Ying should be able to wear it. I'll go get it."
Li Lang and Ermao exchanged glances, "Then why don't you ask Xiao Er to bring hot water, brother Ying to take a good bath, and then have lunch. Aren't you going to the capital? It happens to be with us, why don't you go with us? Take care."
Ying Zhou was very embarrassed, receiving food and new clothes from others, and having to wait on the road, this kind of kindness is great.It's just that he really needs these right now, especially food. If he doesn't eat anything, he will probably become the first immortal to be starved to death in tens of thousands of years.He touched his nose, not willing to refuse, thinking that the kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring. Before leaving, the purple jade ring given to him by Nanling is said to be able to cure all diseases. Why don't you try it for Ermao's mother, maybe it can cure all kinds of diseases. The cure for dementia is also unknown.
Xiao Er quickly called for hot water, Er Mao put down his clothes, and left with Li Lang, leaving the room to Ying Zhou.The two returned to Ermao's room, and the woman sat cross-legged on the bed and hurriedly asked, "How is it?"
Er Mao said: "I didn't expect it to be a heartless person, but I didn't suspect it at all."
The woman said: "Don't be careless, last time it was just a little bit worse, did you tell someone to run away? This time you have to be more careful, first lie to the capital and then start, so as to avoid more troubles on the road."
Ermao nodded, "Don't worry, mother, Brother Lang's acting skills are good, and he can't wear it."
Li Lang said: "It's also a coincidence, he happened to be going to the capital, otherwise it wouldn't be so easy."
The woman said again: "I have looked at it carefully, and there is nothing to say about that face, Er Mao has a good eye this time."
Thinking of the young man's smile, Li Lang thought to himself that this time it might not only be good, it should be astonishing.
Ermao wiped his nose, proudly: "I can't compare with Brother Lang, it depends on the person. Brother Lang is not as accurate as I am."
Li Lang smiled and didn't answer, the three chatted a few more words, in order to prevent accidents, they decided to rent a car and drive back to the capital in the afternoon, and deliver the goods earlier to avoid long nights and dreams.

Ying Zhou turned his head and smiled at the two of them: "Finally refreshed, thank you both."
Li Lang and Ermao were stunned in place.
After washing and cleaning, the young man's skin is white and flawless, like fresh snow on the eaves. His facial features are not tough, but they are not soft, and every detail is just right. , There is a masculine heroism between the brows, under the clothes that don't fit well, the ratio of shoulders to waist will be strong if it is more than one point, and weak if it is less. Such a body shape is obviously a man, but it makes you want to embrace it bosom.The corners of the youth's red lips were upturned, neither coquettish nor coquettish, just as Li Lang thought just now, the breeze and bright moon must be such illusory things, and all the worldly things are not enough to compare.If it is necessary to describe it, apart from the word "beautiful", there is really no other word that can be used.

This kind of beauty, let alone bamboo baskets and flower baskets, the whole capital can't compare with the sum of all the young men. Ermao rubbed his hands. After finishing this job, they can wash their hands in a golden basin and live a good life. How can they Not exciting?
Ying Zhou took two steps and two steps, and almost jumped directly from the second floor.
Four small dishes, two meat and two vegetables, the three of them sat down, Xiao Er brought rice, Li Lang served Ying Zhou a bowl, turned his head and saw Ying Zhou holding chopsticks, frowning tightly, with a nervous expression.
"what happened?"
"Well, nothing..."
It's not that he has never used chopsticks. He occasionally goes to the Immortal World and eats something. He uses chopsticks, but the frequency is too small. He is not very proficient in using them, and he is afraid that he will be exposed in front of Li Lang and Er Mao.

Er Mao said: "When you are away from home, you should help each other. It is not a kindness. Besides, it was my mother who caused you trouble in the morning. Brother Ying, you are welcome!"
He asked again: "Where is Brother Ying from, and what are you going to do in the capital?"
Ying Zhou said: "Well, I'm from the north, and I went to the capital to find someone." He said while thinking, Ermao, don't ask him exactly where he is in the north, and who to look for. Can't answer.
Fortunately, Er Mao is not interested in these two things, "Speaking of which, I have always called you big brother, and I don't know how old you are this year, maybe I am older?"
Ying Zhou blinked, he is around two thousand years old this year, he has not counted the exact number of 2000, he can't tell the truth to ordinary people, he can only say: "I am twenty this year."
"What a coincidence, I also happen to be twenty, in the year of Bingshen, when were you born? I was born in August."
Ermao was born short, so he looks young, but in fact, he just passed his 20th birthday a few days ago.Ying Zhou really can't tell his age, if you want to talk about his face, look at his tenderness, even if he says he is sixteen, people will believe him.But you can see his indifferent demeanor, especially the calmness and open-mindedness between his smiles, which seem to have been learned over time.But he is not familiar with the outside world at all, otherwise he would not be defenseless against them, he is a bit like a big girl who stays at home and stays at home. But he can't help showing curiosity about the things around him, he is calm and lively, this kind of contradiction is very strange in him, and you can't guess his age at all.
He couldn't remember how many years it was born, let alone the month, Ying Zhou thought to himself, if it snowed all day long on the mountain, it could be regarded as born in winter, so he said a December.
Ermao said happily, "So I'm a few months older than you, so I'll call you by your name from now on, and you can just call me Maozi."
After the three of them had eaten, Er Mao brought food for his mother and went upstairs. Li Lang said that he would set off after she had eaten. Ying Zhou couldn't help but feel a little worried when he thought about what happened in the morning, and asked Li Lang, "If Madam sees me, will you leave me?" What should I do as a bad guy?"
Li Lang hurriedly said: "No, my aunt has a bad memory and can't remember you. Besides, as long as Maozi is around, she won't get sick. If you say you are my friend, you and I can call her aunt, we But for ordinary people, it's strange to be called 'madame'."
Even though he was relieved like this, Ying Zhou didn't dare to let go of his heart completely.Half an hour later, Li Lang went to the back of the inn to fetch a car, Er Mao helped his mother down the stairs, Ying Zhou swallowed nervously, wondering if the woman would remember him, would she have to take another Beat chicken and eggs.
Unexpectedly, when the woman saw Ying Zhou, she smiled idiotically, it was completely different from the appearance of Sapo in the morning, she was quite gentle, she said to Li Lang: "Ah Lang's friends are just different, they look really nice."
Li Lang signaled Ying Zhou to go up to greet her and call her Aunt Chun. The woman seemed very happy, and she wanted to pull Ying Zhou into the carriage with him, and let Li Lang and Er Mao drive outside. Ying Zhou looked at her hand. He sat on the shaft of the chariot with Li Lang, watched Li Lang raise the whip in his hand, and shouted "drive", Zao Zima snorted, and pulled the chariot slowly away stand up.
Ying Zhou plucked Xiaobai's fur, the clothes Ermao gave were too small, and the fur ball couldn't fit into his arms, so Ying Zhou put him between him and Li Lang, Xiaobai lay on his stomach and flicked his tail, but it didn't matter. Cozy.
Li Lang asked, "What's the cat's name?"
Ying Zhou said it was Xiaobai, Li Lang smiled and said that the name was really appropriate, simple and easy to remember.
He paid attention to the blunt "王" character on the cat's forehead for a long time, and wanted to reach out and touch it to see if it was born or painted on it, but just as his hand got closer, Xiaobai turned his head , Grinning his teeth at him, the cat hair all over his body exploded, and let out a fierce cry.
Li Lang was taken aback, then withdrew his hand, Ying Zhou hurriedly fished Xiao Bai back, lightly pinched his belly, and said apologetically to Li Lang, "I'm sorry, he doesn't really like being touched by others."
Li Lang could only smile, "It is said that cats are not familiar with raising cats, and I don't know if I can see them, but this one is pretty good for you, recognize the owner."
They walked on the official road, and occasionally encountered vehicles and horses. The road was lined with dense forests. It was the end of summer, with red flowers and green leaves, birds singing and insects contending. It was very lively.
Maybe I was full, but the scenery that seemed bland yesterday turned out to be playful and cute. Compared with the two, Buzhou Mountain is really deserted.Ying Zhou looked at it with interest, thinking that when he returned to the mountain after this trip, he might as well set up a forest on the top of the mountain, plant more flowers and plants, decorate the top of the mountain, and add some interest.
But no matter how good-looking something is, the more you see it, the more it will look like that.The carriage wobbled, compared to Xiaobai's speed of thousands of miles a day, it was really slow, shaking so much that Zhou was drowsy.When he first came down to earth, he didn't notice any abnormality in this body, but after he was slashed and fell from the sky, the mana remaining in his body began to fade gradually. The first feeling was pain, and the second feeling was heat. After walking all night, I finally found a town. Most of the magic power in my body has dissipated, and I have become no different from ordinary people. I am hungry, sleepy, and tired. All kinds of feelings come to my heart.
"Brother Li, how far is it from the capital?"
Li Lang saw the way his eyelids were twitching, and said: "This place is not far from the capital, we will not stop tonight, and we will be able to enter the city tomorrow morning. If you are sleepy, go to sleep for a while, and you will be there when you wake up."
At this time Ermao opened the curtain and came out, saying: "Brother Lang, Ying Zhou, mother asked me to change with you, the sun is shining outside, you go in and drink some water, don't catch the heat."
Li Lang said: "It's okay, I just went this way. Zhou should go in first. The inside is narrow, and it's uncomfortable for three people to sit up. It's better to open up outside."
Ying Zhou was holding Xiaobai with one arm and listening with the other on his knees, but Ermao pulled him up, stuffed him into the carriage, and sat on the shaft by himself.
Aunt Chun was quite easy to get along with when she was not ill. She gave Ying Zhou a water bag, and stuffed a few pieces of snacks into his hand, wrapping them in a plain handkerchief, "If you get hungry on the way, just pad your belly."
Ying Zhou nodded, thanked, and stuffed the snack into his sleeve.The carriage swayed like this, and Ying Zhou couldn't remember when he fell asleep. Anyway, when he woke up, it was already dark. Aunt Chun and Er Mao were sleeping while Er Mao was snoring moderately. Face up, with one leg crossed, very comfortable.
The carriage was still running, Ying Zhou woke up Xiao Bai, hugged him and lifted the curtain, Li Lang turned his head when he heard the sound, "Are you awake?"
Ying Zhou responded, sat on the shaft of the car, and said, "Would you like to go to sleep for a while, I can drive the car."
Li Lang was surprised: "You know how to drive?"
Both he and Ermao felt that Ying Zhou should be a young man who ran out of a rich family, the kind who didn't touch the spring water with his fingers and didn't work hard.
Ying Zhou nodded and said, "Don't worry, it's fine."
Although he can't, he can let Xiaobai roar at the horse to ensure that it will run with all its strength until tomorrow morning.
Li Lang said, "Then do you know the way? From here to the capital, there are still several forks in the road. If you make a mistake, it will be a hundred and eight thousand miles away."
Ying Zhou had no choice but to give up, and took out the few pieces of snacks given by Aunt Chun from his sleeve, which were crushed a bit, and Ying Zhou picked out the most complete piece and handed it to Li Lang, "Then you should eat something," after thinking about it. Thinking about it, he said again: "Do you want some water? I'll go inside and get it."
Li Lang glanced at him, Ying Zhou's hand was half-raised in the air, holding a rough pastry with a small corner broken on his clean white fingertips, the white cat in his arms was waving its drooping long tail leisurely, the moonlight hit him On the face and body, gentle and comfortable.Li Lang couldn't help feeling a little turmoil in his heart. He hurriedly took the snack and swallowed it, turned his head and looked at the road ahead, and said vaguely, "No, aren't you going to sleep?"
"I can't sleep anymore," Ying Zhou threw a piece into his mouth, it was sweet, and it quickly shattered into powder, making a paste in his mouth, he licked off what was stuck on his teeth, and swallowed it all. , "It's finally cooler at night, but it's really hot during the day."
Li Lang said: "It will be the beginning of autumn in a few days, and it will be cool after a few rains."
Ying Zhou couldn't help looking forward to it. The alternation of the four seasons is a phenomenon that only exists in the human world. The growth of all things has its own laws. Spring plowing and autumn harvesting, summer sowing and winter breeding, compared with the fairyland where all seasons are comfortable, it is not interesting.
Li Lang tilted his head and looked at him from the corner of his eye, and saw that the corners of Ying Zhou's lips were raised, his eyes were shining, brighter than the starlight on this sunny night, and the cool night wind was blowing head-on, his face began to faint. Get hot.
He was a little uncomfortable, so he had nothing to say, and asked, "Ying Zhou, I haven't asked you yet. Who are you looking for when you go to the capital? Do you know where he is?"
In response to Zhou's hesitation, this question is really difficult to answer, even he himself doesn't know the name, how old, or where he lives, so he can only answer honestly: "Actually, I don't really know..."
Li Lang asked: "What about the name? Don't you know?"
Ying Zhou shook his head, "I don't know, but if I can see him, I should be able to recognize him."
"There are 10,000+ people in the capital, how do you find them? Then you go to the capital, do you have a place to stay?"
These questions are really difficult to answer one by one. Ying Zhou propped his head and fell into deep thought. After these few days of wandering, he has roughly figured out the situation. At least he knows that in the world, money is needed for food, housing and transportation. He's... penniless.
Seeing his distressed face, Li Lang guessed that he might not have any plans at all. The first thought in his mind was that it would be better to invite him to live in his house, but after thinking about it again, he remembered their plan——
When they arrived in the city, they found a reason to feed the medicine, and drove directly into the back alley of Qingshi Street. They did many business with the restaurants there. Bank settlement is convenient for everyone.When the time comes, what will happen to this person in the future will have nothing to do with me, so why worry about him, why worry about him?
What Ying Zhou thought was that he had already troubled Li Lang and the others a lot, so when he entered the capital, he might as well separate from them.Although the world is complicated and unpredictable, there must be a way for the car to reach the mountain, and there will always be a way.But before we part, we still need to get information about En, Ying Zhou said: "Brother Li, is Aunt Chun's illness serious? Tomorrow is dawn, I'll show her, maybe there is a way to cure it."
Li Lang was taken aback again, of course Aunt Chun is not sick, she is just acting, could Ying Zhou see that Aunt Chun is pretending to be crazy and is trying to test him?It's no wonder that he has a lot of eyes. In this business, you have to be careful in everything before you can sail for thousands of years. Li Lang asked, "Do you know medicine?"
He is not good at medical skills, but the magic weapon given by Nan Ling should be reliable, but this is the same as his age, so he can't say it directly, Ying Zhou said: "It's a little bit."
This is a little bit, how much is it, Li Lang's heart is a little drummed, and then he thinks that the medicine they prepared is just the most common Mongolian sweat medicine, what should he do if Ying Zhou knows the medicine and makes him smell it?
"Aunt Chun became like this because of the stimulation of her uncle's death. It's not serious, and she's fine on weekdays. You..." He wanted to say no more, but if he said that, wouldn't it be more suspicious, so he changed his words: " When you settle down in the capital, I will bother you to show her. Since you have nowhere to go for the time being, why don't you go to my house for a while?"
Ying Zhou said: "Then I'll show Aunt Chun when I go to Beijing. As for the residence, I've caused you a lot of trouble, I really shouldn't bother you anymore, I'll find a place for myself."
Li Lang said it perfunctorily, but he had another calculation in his heart, "Help me watch the car for a while, I'll go in and get something."
Ying Zhou nodded, Li Lang got up from the shaft of the car, got into the car, and sure enough, he heard the sound of rummaging for things. Aunt Chun woke up and asked Li Lang what he was looking for, Li Lang replied that he was looking for some medicine to refresh his mind.
After a while of chatter inside, Maozi also woke up and yawned loudly, and suddenly he heard Li Lang shout: "Ying Zhou."
Ying Zhou leaned back, pushed open the curtain with his back, half of his body entered the compartment, and asked, "What's wrong?"
It was so dark in the carriage that I couldn't see clearly. Suddenly, a strange smell came into my nose, sweet and a bit greasy, like the fragrance of flowers, mixed with something else.Ying Zhou wanted to sneeze a little, but he took another breath without holding back, and felt that his consciousness drifted a little far away, a bit like the feeling when his soul is out of his body, everything in front of him is covered with a layer of white air.
"What's this?
After a breath, the world spun, his eyes went black, his body fell backwards uncontrollably, and he fainted.
The author has something to say: Although he is stupid and greedy, he is very easy to feed...
