Chapter 167: Cui'er's Care
Today is a good day, so Xiao Mo wants to ask for a few monthly tickets and recommendation tickets, ahem *******
"It's a pity that I don't have the clothes you can wear. Otherwise, it would be okay to give you a few sets. It's autumn now, and it will be very cold after nightfall. If you wear so little, be careful of getting cold." Cui'er looked at Yang Kai sympathetically. When she saw Yang Kai, she only wore a thin dress, and she was torn and ragged, and her body was thin, and the ribs between her chest and abdomen could be vaguely seen.
His face was dirty, but his eyebrows were pretty and his eyes were bright, so he was obviously not very old.
It's so pitiful that I can't eat enough and wear it or not, so I'm so pitiful. Cui'er thought to herself.
After hearing what she said, Yang Kai couldn't help but feel a little warm and smiled and said, "It's okay."
"Well, you have such delicious food. If it's not enough, go there and serve it. No one dares to say you." Cui'er clapped her hands and stood up, and went to serve her wife and the lady again.
After a night of nothing, the convoy set off again on the second day.
For two consecutive days, Yang Kai stayed in the convoy, and sat next to Mr. Wu during the day, watching him whip and drive his horse. When he was resting, his maid Cui'er would sometimes come over to say a few words to him.
After two days, through chatting with Cui'er, Yang Kai also learned where they were.
There is a city called Haicheng, which is about three days away. This group of people comes from Tongzhou, which is a small force there.
However, half a year ago, the master of this family died, so the wife took the lady to Haicheng and defected to one of the master's best friends.
Cui'er was vague about these things. Obviously, she didn't dare to say too much, but Yang Kai also inferred something from it.
No one is willing to take his family and leave his hometown, especially the orphans and widows. They travel thousands of miles apart and go through risks and worries. If there were no last resort, how could they make such a choice?
Yang Kai guessed that the master of this family must have offended many people in Tongzhou during his lifetime. Once he died, his wife and the lady had no support. Naturally, they could only go far away.
When traveling with the convoy, these large number of warriors also confirmed Yang Kai's inference. According to Cui'er, half of these warriors were trained by her master during her lifetime. After the master died, he was still willing to work hard to escort his wife and the lady all the way, and waited for the place to return to Tongzhou. Some were hired by huā money.
I encountered many bandits robbers along the way, but they all turned into good luck. Fortunately, I did not suffer any losses.
Yang Kai also asked Cui'er about the situation in Haicheng, but Cui'er had never been there, so naturally she was not very clear. She only heard from her wife that this is a city along the coast with a unique scenery from the mainland.
The city by the sea! Yang Kai was also a little curious. If it weren’t for the experience of footwork this time, Yang Kai would probably not have walked such a long distance. He knew the territory of the Han Dynasty, and the southernmost point was the endless sea.
If Cui'er said this, then Haicheng was the southernmost city of the Han Dynasty.
With some expectations in his heart, Yang Kai continued to walk with the convoy.
Although his image was very sloppy, Yang Kai didn't take care of it. This group of people had already preconceived ideas and regarded themselves as little beggars. If they took care of it, they would suddenly become handsome. They would only arouse people's suspicion.
In the past two days, Yang Kai did the most to observe the movements of Mr. Wu who was driving the car. He found that when the old man was driving the horse, he had an indescribable charm to shake the horse whip.
The whip is not loud and the amplitude is not large, but it can make the horse run away.
His strength is only true essence realm, not very high, but after all, his age is here, and he has his own precipitation and understanding of martial arts, and these are all hidden in his whip-swinging action.
Yang Kai was fascinated by the sight of the footwork. Combined with his understanding of footwork a few days ago, he felt something similar.
Mr. Wu ignored him and shook his whip on his own, occasionally taking a sip of strong wine. The old and the young sat on the shaft of the car, and he would not say a word all day long.
On the evening of that day, the convoy stopped again.
Yang drove out of the car, stayed away from the crowd, found a secluded place to sit down, pulled up a weed from the ground, and sang it casually.
The warriors in the entire fleet didn't like him very much. No one would like a beggar. If it weren't for the kindness of the ladies in this family, how could they bring Yang Kai with them?
After a while, footsteps sounded behind him. Without turning back, Yang Kai knew who it was.
"Hey, little beggar." The voice of the maid Cui'er came over.
Yang Kai smiled bitterly, rubbed his forehead and said, "I told you my name, can't you change the name?"
The three words "Little Beggar" are really not very popular.
"Little brat!" Cui'er angrily glanced at him, flipped his palms, took out two chestnuts, handed them to Yang Kai, picked up the other one and peeled them up.
This girl often takes some snacks to share with Yang Kai during her rest. Yang Kai was a little confused about why she looked like a poor beggar.
Later, I asked and found out that Cui'er had a younger brother, but later she starved to death. The siblings and brothers had begged, and were later taken in by her wife and lady.
Yang Kai looks about the same age as her dead brother, so he naturally won't hate it.
"Where did you steal food from your lady again?" Yang Kai rolled his eyes.
Cui'er glared at her eyes: "Where did you steal? This is given to me by the lady. The lady treats me well. I will give you a little bit of food if you have anything to eat."
"Then why don't you stay and serve her?" Yang Kai peeled off the chestnut and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Miss and his wife are tired of traveling and say they want to rest, so I don't have to serve." Cui'er replied, and after saying that his eyes fluttered, he glanced at Yang Kai and said, "Little Beggar, what are you going to do when you arrive in Haicheng?"
"I don't know, let's go around." Yang Kai shook his head.
Cui'er curled her lips: "It sounds so nice. Isn't it just a broken bowl begging everywhere? My sister has never done it back then."
Yang Kai smiled, no explanation.
"Let's do it, just follow us. Anyway, when we arrive in Haicheng, we will definitely have to recruit some servants. I think you are smart and clever. Being a servant will definitely not be too bad. How about it? With my guarantee, there will definitely be no problem with the wife and the lady. When you save some money, you may be able to get a good wife!" Cui'er said instigated.
She was quite charming and had a good appearance. When she spoke like this, her expression on her face was extremely ambiguous, which added to the temptation.
Yang Kai agreed: "Okay, it would be great if I could get a wife like you."
Cui'er covered her mouth and chuckled: "You beggar, really are so evil. You deserve to beg for the rest of your life. I have to think carefully whether you should lead the wolf into the house."
"You really have to think carefully." Yang Kai looked solemn.
He just agreed casually that he had experienced this time and could not go to others to be a servant. However, if he refuses now, he will have to waste some verbal explanations.
"Okay. I won't talk nonsense to you. I've never seen any beggar who speaks like you." Cui'er angrily glanced at Yang Kai, stood up lazily and said, "We will be in Haicheng in another day. You can rest tonight. I'm tired, so I won't come to serve you later."
"Yeah." Yang Kai nodded. Every time it was time for dinner, Cui'er would come to help him, because he was afraid that he would be bullied by those warriors.
Watching Cui'er enter the third carriage, Yang Kai continued to shake the dead grass in his hand, wanting to find the feeling of Mr. Wu from it.
Soon, the food was ready, and with a shout, many warriors rushed over.
Yang Kai also stood up and walked towards the other side, but before he could take a few steps, he made a mistake and blocked Yang Kai.
Looking up, Yang Kai was seeing the middle-aged man that day, staring at him with a cold expression.
"What's wrong?" Yang Kai frowned.
"Get out. There is no food for you tonight!" The middle-aged man looked at Yang Kai with disdain, his voice low, and there was a threat in his eyes.
A sneer appeared on the corner of Yang Kai's mouth and he looked at him quietly.
"Good eyes." The middle-aged man nodded slightly and threatened again: "But if you want to die, I can also help you."
Yang Kai didn't say anything, turned around and sat back.
He didn't want to have a conflict with these people. In any case, he was taken in, and Cui'er treated him well. There was no need to make trouble for a supper.
Eat less and you won't starve to death.
"You know your identity!" The middle-aged man snorted coldly.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but the moment Yang Kai turned around, he seemed to see his expression relaxed a little.
This change in expression made Yang Kai feel a sudden feeling, and a vague feeling arises. He greeted the Earth Demon, making him alert, and looked at the surrounding environment himself.
This look made Yang Kai even more surprised.
Although this place is like the place where you rest on weekdays, it is even more desolate. Some people have traces left by walking through the place where you rest on weekdays, but this place is definitely a ghost place that no one cares about.
To put it bluntly, the most suitable thing here is to kill people and throw corpses.
Not so? Yang Kai was a little suspicious.
Looking up at the sky, it was pitch black and the wind was whistling. It was the dark moon and the wind was high. I killed people and set fire to the sky.
On the other side, many warriors were snatching food and having sex while chatting and laughing. Although Mr. Wu was a driver who drove the car, his status was definitely not low, because someone was serving food to him at this moment. He had been sitting by the shaft of the car, drinking and looking at the sky, old and desolate.
Soon, everyone was full of food and food. The things that Yang Kai had been worried about did not happen, and he couldn't help but laugh at himself as being too sensitive.
After the group finished eating, chatted for a while, and under the scolding of the middle-aged man, a few were left for the night, while more of them sat around the fire and slept in their clothes.
Yang Kai also slowly let go and lay in the distance and closed his eyes to rest.
An hour later, the voice of the Earth Demon suddenly rang: "Young Master, something is wrong!"
Yang Kai opened his eyes suddenly. Without the need for the Earth Demon's reminder, he also realized something was wrong.
The group of warriors who were sleeping around the bonfire were breathing very heavy at this moment.
Generally speaking, even if a warrior walks in the wild, he must always be vigilant. It is impossible for him to fall into too deep sleep at night. He basically sleeps lightly by closing his eyes and resting his energy and energy.
This is how they have come here these days and nights.
But now, all of these people have fallen asleep to death. Yang Kai thought that he would make some big noise if he wanted to wake them up. (To be continued.
