Quickly wear the boss and don’t be cannon fodder

The carriage was driving on the road when it suddenly started to rain heavily. The road could not be seen clearly, so the only option was to find a place nearby to rest under the rain.

Zhuo Yue saw a thatched hut in front of him and drove the carriage over.

This is an abandoned thatched hut, which is in a mess inside, but it can barely keep out the rain.

The group took refuge in a thatched hut, and Zhuo Yue ordered people to tie up the carriage, shelter the horses from the rain, and feed them hay.

Someone started a fire, and Xiao Yiyun sat in a wheelchair, using a wooden stick to stir the fire.

Su Yan sat by the fire, adding hay one by one.

Xiao Cui silently went to get more hay for her to burn.

Xiao Yiyun stopped him and said, "Don't burn it. Your hands are dirty. Just sit still."

Su Yan was like a playful child and didn't listen to any advice at all.

"I'm going to add some wood to the fire."

"Come here, or you'll burn your hair."

Xiao Yiyun pointed at the ends of her hair that were burnt by fire, and there was also a smell of burnt hair in the air.

Su Yan still ignored him and insisted on adding hay one by one.

Xiao Yiyun was helpless and was about to slide his wheelchair to pull her away.

Just then someone else rushed into the thatched hut.

The man was wearing a moon-colored gown and carrying a schoolbag on his back. He looked like a scholar.

The key point is that although he was caught in the rain and his hair was a little messy, it did not affect his handsomeness.

Xiao Cui was stunned and stared at the other person without blinking.

Even Zhuo Yue and others couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Su Yan was the most direct and took the initiative to show his goodwill: "Handsome brother, your hair is wet, I have a handkerchief here to wipe it for you."

The visitor was stunned for a moment, then politely refused: "Thank you, but no, I have one myself."

As he said this, he took out a blue towel from his backpack and began to wipe his hair and face.

Xiao Yiyun didn't say a word the whole time, just watched coldly.

The man was sitting next to him. He smiled awkwardly at Xiao Yiyun and started to light the fire.

Zhuoyue naturally started chatting with the other party.

"Sir, are you going to Beijing to take the exam?"

The other party shook his head and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "No, I am traveling to study. There is a saying in the book, 'Reading thousands of miles of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles.'"

"That's true, but if you go alone, and you are... it's still pretty dangerous anyway."

The scholar smiled and then said: "You will meet like-minded people on the road, and then you will walk a part of the journey together, but no one will accompany another person for the whole journey. Some roads always need to be walked alone."

Zhuo Yue nodded thoughtfully.

The scholar's fire started, and the thatched hut became brighter, but the sky outside was getting darker.

Zhuoyue and the scholar chatted for a while and roughly knew each other's destination.

After a while, Zhuo Yue and Xiao Cui went to get some dry food, and the scholar took out some dry food from his package and started eating.

Su Yan came close to the scholar and told him about the interesting things he encountered during his journey.

Su Yan listened attentively, and the others didn't care. They all ate their food and listened to the scholar talk about his experience of studying abroad in the past two years.

Xiao Cui stared at the scholar's handsome face with admiration. The scholar who was chatting cheerfully seemed to be covered with a layer of soft light, making people reluctant to look away.

"Wow, you have been to so many fun places. I want to go there too." Su Yan couldn't help but sigh.

The scholar had long seen that she was different from normal people, but he did not despise her. He even deliberately said in the tone of telling a story to a child: "Let your family take you there. I believe they can definitely take you there."

Su Yan turned around and said to Xiao Yiyun expectantly: "Husband, I also want to go to the place where this little brother has been. Can you take me there next time?"

Xiao Yiyun had been very quiet all this time. When Su Yan pressed him, he said calmly, "There are many fun places, and you don't have to go anywhere in particular. If you come across something fun, stop and play. Don't ignore the scenery along the way just to find your destination."

Su Yan looked at him with a confused look. The scholar smiled and said, "Sir, you are right. Every journey has its own scenery. You don't have to blindly pursue the scenery seen by others. You will ignore the scenery you see. Sir, you are a perceptive person. I have learned a lot from you."

Xiao Yiyun smiled faintly and shook his head, saying: "I just said it casually, you have a strong ability to comprehend, and you can understand the true meaning of life from simple words."

The atmosphere was very harmonious, with everyone chatting away one after another, and time didn't feel long, but instead passed quickly.

It's late at night and it's time to sleep.

Zhuo Yue made a simple bed for Su Yan and Xiao Yiyun, and Su Yan fell down and fell asleep. People who have no worries always fall asleep easily.

Xiao Yiyun sat next to him, but couldn't fall asleep for a long time.

He listened to the sound of rain outside and looked worried.

The scholar saw that he was worried, so he said, "Why don't I play a cicada song to help you all sleep?"

Xiao Yiyun did not object, and the scholar took out a bamboo flute from his backpack and began to play it.

The melodious sound of the flute rang out in the thatched cottage, bringing a faint tranquility unique to summer that slowly calms people's restless hearts.

Zhuo Yue and others felt drowsy after listening to the flute.

Xiao Yiyun leaned against the wall, his mind becoming clearer.

He looked at Su Yan's sleeping face, wondering how he and she should move forward in the future.

It would be a blessing if we could just accompany each other like this.

It seemed that his boring life had become more interesting and relaxed since she appeared.

It turned out that it was not that he was used to quietness and loneliness, but that no one was willing to talk to him and bring him liveliness and warmth.

Su Yan turned over and moved closer to Xiao Yiyun, and habitually put his arm on him.

Xiao Yiyun raised the corner of his mouth lovingly, then pulled the quilt over her shoulders to prevent her from catching a cold.

The scholar who was playing the flute nearby saw the whole scene.

Everyone in the thatched hut fell asleep. Xiao Yiyun was also infected by Su Yan and gradually became sleepy, lowered his head and fell asleep.

The scholar, who had originally closed his eyes, opened them at this moment.

The originally innocent and harmless look in his eyes, like that of a little lamb, has completely changed.

He glanced coldly at the people in the thatched hut, then looked at the position of Xiao Yiyun and Su Yan.

Apart from the people in the hut, he didn't feel the presence of anyone else.

It is impossible for that mysterious woman in the legend to be hiding in the dark.

Could it be that Jin Hufa and Liu Honghong made up a story to deceive him?

But how could they be so brave, especially since they knew he had come to check it out in person and had not changed his story, proving that they had really met the mysterious woman.

Would she only show up if Xiao Yiyun was in danger?

Luo Chengjue stood up, brushed the dust off his robe, and walked towards Xiao Yiyu step by step.

Someone happened to wake up and saw him standing in the middle of the hut. Just as he was about to ask him what he was doing, he felt a strong wind blowing and fainted.
