Wang Quan had a good night's sleep last night.
He hadn't even dreamed for a long time.
Hugging Little White Hair tightly in his arms, he closed his eyes and buried his face in the girl's white hair and neck. He smelled the fragrance of the shampoo and shower gel and rubbed it with his hands.
Yes, it had grown a lot.
He subconsciously rubbed it again and then planned to go back to sleep.
"Brother, it's time to wake up."
Wang Quan was pretending to be asleep.
He had been dreaming every night before and hadn't had a good night's sleep.
Now that he finally had a good night's sleep, he didn't want to wake up so early.
And with Little White Hair hugging him, it was so comfortable.
"Brother, we are going to Chang 'an today."
Ah Jiu took his hand out of her arms and sat up. "Su Zicheng just came back from sending the children to Wuming Manor. He's already outside the inn."
Wang Quan then got up helplessly and asked, "What about Huang Rongxue and Luo Xiao? Did they send them there too? "
Ah Jiu closed her eyes for two seconds and then opened them again. She nodded and said, "They sent them there and then secretly ran out. Old friend Wu didn't stop them. They just followed behind Su Zicheng.
"Su Zicheng also pretended not to know, brother."
"Alright, then let's start." Wang Quan got up and put on his clothes. He rubbed Little White Hair. "Ah Jiu, I'll leave everything to you."
Ah Jiu followed Wang Quan's hand and shook her head. She responded faintly, "Okay."
…
Huang Rongxue was driven out of the inn by the waiter.
She didn't care about it. Instead, she ran to a secluded corner and found Luo Xiao who had been waiting there for a long time. She smiled and said, "Brother Wang and the others have already left. They just left not long ago. We can still catch up with them if we go after them now!"
Luo Xiao shrunk her neck. She looked like a fat penguin wrapped in clean and thick clothes. However, the crisscrossed scars on her face were a little conspicuous. "Will they send us back to Nameless Manor if we go after them now?"
She thought it was a test for her.
But in fact, Young Master didn't even look at her. He really let Su Zicheng send her to Nameless Manor with those little beggars.
She was a little lost now.
Of course, it was also her idea to catch up with Wang Quan. If she had to be an ugly, disabled, and disfigured beggar for the rest of her life … it was hard for her to accept it.
So she wanted to catch up with Wang Quan. Even if Wang Quan didn't help her recover, she still wanted to stay by his side.
At least she could have a little sense of security.
After all, she was just a girl who wasn't even seventeen years old. Although she had a deep mind, she would still subconsciously panic when the situation was out of her control.
"That makes sense."
Huang Rongxue agreed deeply. "Then let's wait and catch up with them. Anyway, Brother Wang and the others are also going to the capital."
They could also look for them when they got there.
Luo Xiao nodded.
Then, her stomach growled.
She raised her head and looked at Huang Rongxue.
Huang Rongxue held the "beauty" wrapped in a cloth with her left elbow and scratched her hair with her right hand. "How could I have brought money when I ran out of the farm?"
But soon, her eyes lit up. "I got it!"
She pulled Luo Xiao and quietly went to a corner far away from a pancake shop. She whispered, "In a moment, we'll grab two pancakes and run! Remember to follow me closely! We'll be beaten if we're slow! "
Luo Xiao hesitated for a moment, but she still nodded.
Then, she took a deep breath together with Huang Rongxue. Huang Rongxue passed the "beauty" to Luo Xiao and asked her to hold it.
Then, they heard Huang Rongxue shout, "Run!"
The two of them ran straight to the pancake shop. One of them grabbed a pancake and ran!
The owner of the pancake shop was stunned. He yelled "thief" as he picked up a rolling pin and chased after them.
Although Huang Rongxue's leg was a little lame, she ran very fast.
She could even hold a pancake in her mouth and run with Luo Xiao's hand.
But two young girls couldn't outrun an adult.
The owner of the pancake shop ran close to them. Seeing that he couldn't catch up to them, he threw the rolling pin with all his strength and hit the knee of Huang Rongxue's lame leg.
Huang Rongxue let out a muffled groan and fell forward. The pancake also fell on the ground and rolled a few inches before falling down.
Seeing that the owner of the pancake shop was about to catch up to them, Luo Xiao threw the pancake in her hand at the owner's face. Then, she helped Huang Rongxue up and carried her on her back as they ran.
After running for a few hundred meters, they finally shook off the owner.
The two of them held their knees and panted for a long time. Huang Rongxue stretched out her hand as she panted. "Sword … Ha, ha … Give me the sword."
Luo Xiao passed the sword to her. Her hoarse voice had a hint of mockery in it. "You were almost caught and beaten to death, and you're still in the mood for a sword?"
Huang Rongxue clasped the sword tightly with her armless left arm. She waited for her breathing to stabilize before explaining, "This sword was given to me by Brother Wang. The fat squire of Wuming Village looked at the sword in a strange way.
Huang Rongxue hugged the sword that was wrapped in cloth tightly. "He said that this is a magical sword and asked me not to let this sword down."
The little girl's dirty face had a pair of sparkling eyes that were full of longing. "Brother Wang was willing to give me the magical sword, which means that he is testing me! If I can go to the capital, he will definitely accept me! Otherwise, why would he give me such a precious magical sword? "
Luo Xiao's eyes suddenly dimmed.
Yes, if the young master is testing her, then what about me?
The young master didn't give me any token. If he doesn't say it, how can I prove my identity?
Now I can't even find the gate of the Pure Heart Sacred House.
Did the young master really … abandon me?
Seeing her suddenly pessimistic, Huang Rongxue pursed her lips and patted her shoulder with a smile. "At that time, I will beg Brother Wang to accept you as a disciple! He is so powerful, maybe he can cure the wound on your face! At that time, you have to let me see what you look like!
"And … and even if he doesn't accept you, I will protect you! At worst … at worst, I won't take him as my master! "
Huang Rongxue laughed carelessly, "I can live so long myself, so it's no problem to take you with me!
"It's a pity for the steamed cake."
She licked her chapped lips, "If I can eat roasted chicken once, it would be great. I still don't know what roasted chicken tastes like."
Luo Xiao was silent for a moment and nodded slightly, "En, there will be a chance."
Huang Rongxue's thought should be the same as her, both of them wanted to become stronger.
She wanted to become stronger because she wanted to break away from the shackles of this world, and wanted to get rid of the fate of sacrificing her life.
Huang Rongxue wanted to become stronger because she didn't want anyone to bully her anymore. She wanted to eat well and wear warm clothes.
Their thoughts were actually the same.
"Let's go, it's still not too late to get out of the city. But tonight, we have to find an earth temple to spend the night. "
Seemingly seeing that Luo Xiao had something on her mind, she deliberately jumped up and down to show that she was very happy.
But before she took two steps, she accidentally bumped into someone. The person stood still, but she fell on her butt, and the "Hongyan" she was holding in her left arm also fell to the ground.
The rag wrapped around the sword was slightly open, revealing a corner of the scabbard below.
The person who was hit was a middle-aged swordsman with a common face.
His eyes lit up, and he was about to bend down to pick up the "Hongyan".
Huang Rongxue's eyes were sharp and her hands were quick. She grabbed the "Hongyan" and wrapped the rag around it again. She bowed and said, "Hero, I'm sorry."
Then she wanted to bypass this person.
But the swordsman stretched out his hand to stop the two of them. "Little beggar, can you let me have a look at your sword?"
His eyes were fixed on the sword in Huang Rongxue's arms, and his eyes were filled with fanaticism.
"I'm sorry, this is a gift from an elder, it's not for sale."
Huang Rongxue's face turned ugly. She pulled Luo Xiao and ran away.
Looking at the backs of the two of them leaving, the middle-aged swordsman's face suddenly became expressionless again.
The next moment, he suddenly disappeared from the place.
But none of the passers-by noticed him, as if he had never existed.
Half an hour later, in the woods outside the north of the city, Huang Rongxue pulled Luo Xiao and ran very fast.
When they reached the woods, the two of them stopped and bent over, panting heavily.
Even Luo Xiao retched for a long time.
"He didn't chase after us, did he?" Huang Rongxue looked back.
But it was dark outside the woods behind them, and they couldn't see anything.
"No." After retching, Luo Xiao wiped her mouth and asked, "Are you afraid that he will take the sword?"
"He will definitely take the sword. I've seen that look in his eyes. When the Beggar Gang caught the orphans in the city, he had that look in his eyes. "
She understood the principle that a man's wealth would arouse the envy of others.
"We can't go to the Earth Temple in front of us. Let's go and find a rock depression against the wind to sleep."
Huang Rongxue pulled Luo Xiao, who had just recovered, and continued to run forward.
But when they were about to run out of the woods, the two of them stopped, as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
Outside the woods, the middle-aged swordsman had a hideous smile on his face.
"Where do you want to run?"
