The little sweetheart of the rough family

The sky was dark, and there were two or three stars in the ink-like night sky.

Cheng Yanping sat up abruptly, sweat profusely on his forehead, he was stunned for a moment and hurriedly checked the clothes on his body, although the clothes were muddy and messy, they were tidy anyway.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

Just as he was about to stand up with his arms up, he fell back and sat down. He sat still for a while and rubbed his forehead with his hand before recalling what happened before.He was in the carriage at that time, and then the guard named Bao San broke in, covered his mouth and nose, intending to do something wrong to him.

He tried to escape with all his strength, but rolled down the hillside.

At that time, his head was in a daze, but he also knew how to escape. He stumbled all the way to escape, and suddenly smelled the strong smell of rice in the air. He searched for the smell and walked over, and then threw himself into the arms of a man. .

The man is very strong and seems to have no clothes, showing strong arms and chest.

And he is like a person trapped in the desert who is about to die of thirst when he sees water, or like a person drowning in the water who grabs the straw for life. He hugged him tightly, and his palm touched him with a cool feeling. The burning pain in his body was only slightly relieved when he strengthened his muscles.

Cheng Yanping blushed inexplicably.

At that time, although his mind was in chaos, he vaguely remembered that he licked the side of the man's neck like crazy, cried and begged him to help him, and finally grabbed the man's hand and put it under his body. there.

Follow...

Cheng Yanping's face was burning hot, he shook his head trying to drive these blushing images out of his head, when he was in a state of embarrassment, there seemed to be a shout coming from a distance.

He held his breath and listened carefully, until he heard that the person was He Ming, then he found a small tree and shook it desperately.

"I am here!"

At first, He Ming was talking to Xiao An and Xiao Hu in the house, but when he heard Bao San's nervous shouting from outside, he didn't even have time to think, he turned into a sharp arrow and rushed out.

The drizzle was drizzling, and mist floated in the mountains, and clumps of them floated in the greenery everywhere.

Bao San stood by the side of the road and pointed down the slope and shouted anxiously: "Wolf...Wolf...Mr. Cheng was dragged away by the wolf..."

He Ming noticed something was wrong right away, he winked at Xiao An and Xiao Hu without a trace, and the three surrounded them in the shape of "pin", the mountain road was muddy, even if the beasts were light and agile There will be no traces left, and wolves appear in groups, but there are no other marks on the ground except messy footprints.

But before he got close, Bao San changed his flustered expression and showed a solemn expression, then turned around and rushed into the dense forest as if he had made up his mind.

He Ming stopped Xiao An and Xiao Hu who were chasing after them, and returned to the carriage. After some inspection, he roughly understood what happened just now. He looked at the medicine-soaked handkerchief in his hand, and cursed, " Lustful and daring dog thing."

Then he ordered Xiao An and Xiao Hu to start looking for someone.

Cheng Yanping's body was weak, and he had been drugged, so he couldn't escape far. In addition, there seemed to be traces of crawling on the road, and finally where Bao San stood, He Ming took Xiaoan and Xiaohu Start looking down the slope.

Fortunately, when it was just dark, the man was found.Otherwise, if it gets dark, I'm afraid the consequences will be disastrous.

When He Ming came to find him, Cheng Yanping was leaning against a big tree, his face was ruddy, and there was a gleam in his eyes. He swept his eyes and found a smoldering fire beside him. And two pieces of bamboo blackened by fireworks.

"Mr. Cheng forgives your sins, because your subordinates have no way to rule them. If something happens to you, your subordinates will die..."

Cheng Yanping interrupted his apology, "Where's that lunatic?"

He Ming felt ashamed, and he was stunned for a while before replying: "Let him run away. Don't worry, Mr. Bao, San Bao is a registered bodyguard. Even if he can run away, the monk will not be able to escape from the temple. When he arrives in Liangzhou City, his subordinates will definitely meet him." Find him out, and give Mr. Cheng justice."

While talking, Xiao An and Xiao Hu helped Cheng Yanping up from left to right.

A group of people went back to the previous wooden house. According to the past habits, this time Cheng Yanping suffered such a big grievance and fright, and his body was still injured. He must rest for three to five days before going back On the road.

Thinking of this, Xiao Hu's heart sank to the bottom of the valley.

But as soon as he arrived at the wooden house, Cheng Yanping got into the carriage, changed into some clean clothes, then opened the curtain, and said softly, "What's the name of the nearest town?"

The route was planned by He Ming, and the reason why he took the Xiaocang Mountain was because he wanted to take a shortcut. It has been almost a year since he went out this time, and the hearts of his subordinates are all overwhelmed, and he sees all of this.

"Longmen Town."

Cheng Yanping's face became hot inexplicably, "Then let's go here." When the curtain was lowered, the heart in his chest was still beating wildly. With such an intimate gesture.

Although he can't remember the man's appearance, he only vaguely remembers that the man is very strong. He must be a nearby farmer or hunter, otherwise who would come all the way to this deep mountain forest, and the smell of bamboo... ...

"Let's go now?"

He Ming thought he was hallucinating, and asked in surprise.It wasn't until Cheng Yanping got an affirmative reply that he started on the road again.

The moonlight is quiet, and the insects are chirping.

It was difficult to travel at night, Cheng Yanping fell asleep in the swaying carriage.

When he woke up again, it was already broad daylight.

"Master Cheng, Longmen Town is here."

He Ming stretched out his hand to help Cheng Yanping out of the carriage, Cheng Yanping propped up his sleepy eyes and looked around.

On the dilapidated plaque hanging above the gate of the city was written the Chinese characters "Longmen Town". Although the plaque was dilapidated, the characters were bright red. Xu Shicai painted it with red paint, and there were a few wisps of translucent light in the sunlight. .

Extending along the city gate is the "city wall" surrounded by loess. When you get closer, you can see countless criss-crossing cracks on the wall.

A group of people strolled in.

The town is not big, with only two main streets.There are some hawkers doing business on both sides of the street.When Xu Shi saw strangers coming, they enthusiastically peddled them in order to attract some business.

"Newly baked buns, big and fragrant buns..."

"Pancakes, egg pancakes..."

"Dumplings, dumplings stuffed with shepherd's purse. Guest officer, do you want to try it? You can only eat dumplings stuffed with shepherd's purse at this time. If you miss it, you have to wait until next year..."

Vendors selling dumplings are extremely enthusiastic, reaching out to attract customers.Knowing that Cheng Yan always likes to be clean and doesn't like to be touched by people, and he doesn't know how to eat food from these roadside stalls, He Ming sideways blocked it.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Yanping changed his old habit and sat down at a table by the side of the road.

"Boss, bring me some dumplings stuffed with shepherd's purse."

"Come on, just wait a moment, I'll be here in a while." Perhaps because he had attracted a guest, the boss's tone was a bit brisk, and even the ending was spinning.

The three of He Ming also sat down together.

Cheng Yanping knew that they had suffered for a long time, and their food intake was not comparable to his, so he said: "This place is not big, you go and eat what you want, and you don't have to accompany me."

Hearing that both Xiao An and Xiao Hu's eyes were bright, he saw a beef noodle shop at the end of the street on the way just now, so he looked at He Ming, saw He Ming nod, and walked towards the beef noodle shop with his shoulders crossed. went.

There are very few strangers in Longmen Town, let alone such good-looking strangers.

The boss counted twelve dumplings and threw them into the iron pot. After covering the lid, he turned around and asked, "Where are you guys from? Where are you going?"

He Ming was about to answer, but he was preempted by Cheng Yanping, who had always been unreasonable. His voice was still very soft, his words were clear, and he had an excellent Beijing accent.

"I came from the capital, and I want to come to Longmen Town to find relatives."

He Ming frowned, not knowing why.

When the dumplings were cooked, Cheng Yanping looked around. Gradually, there were more people in the market, lively but not crowded. He suddenly had an idea.

"After breakfast in a while, go find the mayor here, and then buy me a house. The house doesn't need to be big, as long as it can accommodate people. After all, you know my current situation."

He Ming hurriedly said: "But..."

Cheng Yanping raised his hand to signal him not to go on.

"I will explain to His Majesty myself."

The boss saw that the two were talking, so he didn't want to disturb him. He waited for the water to boil, and then lifted the lid of the pot, and the steaming heat surged up.

As soon as I spoke, the dumplings were cooked.

Seeing that Cheng Yanping behaved like a city man, the boss deliberately found a bowl with no gaps, scalded it twice with hot water, then put the dumplings into the bowl, sprinkled some minced green onions, and ordered Two drops of sesame oil.

"The dumplings are here, take your time."

Cheng Yanping thanked him, and began to eat in small bites.Soon there were people around, at first he didn't know what was going on, he just thought it was because of his appearance, but later he realized that it was because his eating was too elegant, ordinary people would eat dumplings one at a time, no matter how bad it was It's also two for one. I've never seen him eat four or five dumplings for one bite.

The boss kindly drove away the onlookers, and poured a small dish of vinegar on the side.

"This vinegar is a specialty of our Longmen Town. It will taste even better if you dip it into it."

Cheng Yanping was as good as he was good, and dipped some vinegar in between the dumplings, and the taste was really different.

After eating a bowl of dumplings, Cheng Yanping just held his heart and slid down. He hadn't eaten so full for a long time. In fact, he couldn't eat half of it, but he looked at the boss's earnest eyes and asked him from time to time. He couldn't bear to let him down whether he tasted good or not, he gritted his teeth and ate the whole bowl, not even the soup left.

He Ming paid the money and asked the direction of the mayor's house.

The boss took the money and smiled all over his face, "If you want to eat later, come again."

Xiao An and Xiao Hu also finished eating, wandering around the street, there was nothing wrong with them, so He Ming didn't call them, and took Cheng Yanping to the mayor's house.

The mayor's surname is Zhang, he is in his early fifties and has a beard on his forehead. Hearing that Cheng Yanping is from the capital, he becomes more polite.

"This friend of mine originally wanted to come to Longmen Town to look for relatives. However, it has been a long time and the relatives have not been found. I also feel that Longmen Town is very kind, so I want to live in the town. I also asked the mayor to help find a house, or Buy or rent."

He Ming deliberately concealed Cheng Yanping's identity as an exiled prisoner.

Cheng Yanping glanced at him gratefully, "I plan to stay for a long time, it would be best if I can buy it."

Longmen Town was not big at first, and he knew everything about the town, so he smiled and said, "Coincidentally, there happened to be a house in the north of the town, and the former owner moved his family to Liangzhou, and now it's vacant. , but the location is a bit off, if you are willing, I will take you to have a look?"

Cheng Yanping nodded.

"Okay, thank you."

The mayor went to the house and opened the cage and took out a bunch of keys, and led the two to the north of the town.

It is said to be remote, but it is only a few steps away.

The lock on the door was rusted for a long time, and it took a lot of effort to open it. The mayor gasped and said, "Just change the lock later." He pushed the door open and entered.The entrance is a huge yard. Because no one has lived in it for a long time, a lot of weeds have grown in the yard, which adds a bit of desolation.

Among them are two tile-roofed houses.On the east side is the kitchen, on the west side is a shed where some sundries are placed, and the toilet is in the corner behind the house.

Cheng Yanping made a decision without even thinking about it.

The mayor went back with a smile and took the house deed and land deed. Taking advantage of Cheng Yanping's signature and deposit, He Ming paid the money.

The mayor collected the money, glanced at the house deed in his hand, and exclaimed, "Good writing." He had studied for a few years when he was young, and he could read a few words. He envied learned people the most. Now that I see Cheng Yanping's handwriting, I have a strong sense of referring to it as Wangnianjiao.

Cheng Yanping exchanged some pleasantries with him and sent him outside the door.

The mayor turned his head three times at a step and said, "If you have something to say, just say it."

After seeing the mayor off, Cheng Yanping took out another piece of jade from his bosom and handed it to He Ming.

"Give this jade to His Majesty after you go back, and he won't blame you when he sees it."

He Ming put Yu Jue away, took out some broken silver from his pocket and stuffed it into Cheng Yanping's hand, "Mr. Cheng has never traveled far. Although the money is not much, it can last for a while."

Cheng Yanping returned the silver with a smile.

"Thank you, Guard He, for your kindness. It was really hard for you to escort me all the way. Unfortunately, I am penniless now. I really don't have any money to reward you. How can I collect your money?"

Seeing that he persisted, He Ming no longer tried to persuade him, and cupped his hands and said, "Then there will be a period later."

Cheng Yanping sent the person outside the door.

"I'm a rebel, it's better for you if we don't meet again." After speaking, he bowed to the end, "Thank you for taking care of Mr. He this time, and I hope your future will be bright and your career will be prosperous."

"Thank you, Mr. Cheng, for your kind words. Let's say goodbye."

When he turned to leave, He Ming felt strange. As for why he couldn't tell, it was probably a pity that such a jade-like fairy had ended up in this situation.

What a trick.

After He Ming's figure disappeared at the corner of the street, Cheng Yanping turned around and walked back. When passing by the next door, he looked in curiously.

Just this one glance brought disaster to him.

I saw a big rooster planing food in the yard, with a bright red comb, Xu Shi noticed his gaze, and then a pair of small round eyes became vigilant, and even the smooth hair on the neck stood up.

It spread its wings slightly, raised its head and let out a long cry.

"O...do...he..."

Then, he rushed towards Cheng Yanping like a gust of wind.
