This year has been more interesting for Aling than every other year. She thought about the past when Master was still there, either she would be squatting by the river in the valley grilling fish to support herself on New Year's Eve, or Master would be taking her with him.
When I went out, I squatted on someone's roof, holding a roast chicken, and watched people gather together and lively, and I felt pitiful just thinking about it.
But Master is a grown man and there is not much he can think of.
That's why when Master was dying, he held her hand and told her not to think about revenge, but to stay away from the world and find a good place to settle down in peace.
Master feels that she is still young and should have her own life. Now that he is gone, she should live her own life well.
Ah Ling is very open-minded. In fact, she grew up with her master and has a free and easy temper.
She met her uncle here again and knew that the truth behind her master's death was not something she could investigate. She would also find out when the time comes, so she was less entangled.
Right now, she was getting even more excited by the New Year's Eve experience these past few days.
Thinking about things, he said, "Sister Aqiu, we said we were going to the county town to watch the lantern festival, are you still going?"
Going to the county town during the Lantern Festival was something Song Qiu had planned for a long time.
She nodded and said, "We'll see in a few days. If the news is not serious, we'll go."
If it's not peaceful over there at Lingnan Pass, it's better not to go that far. The same goes for the lantern festival in the town.
She bought four houses in the town, two of them were rented out, and two of them were vacant and could be lived in at any time.
Also convenient.
Seeing the joy in A Ling's eyes, she couldn't help but said: "If you want to be lively, let's go to the Ping'an Fair on the ninth day of the Lunar New Year. We will climb the mountain on the ninth day of the Lunar New Year. There will be a temple fair in Songshan Temple. People from eight villages in ten miles will go there, and it will be lively.
Woolen cloth!"
The custom in their area is to climb high on the ninth day of the lunar month, visit temple fairs, and offer incense.
Every day on this day, people rush to go to the temple, just to compete in front of everyone and get a good deal, so this year will definitely go smoothly.
When Ah Ling heard this, she was really excited, "I heard about Lihua yesterday! Okay, let's go to the Ping'an Market before dawn! I want to put some incense on my head and ask the Buddha to bless my grandma's health and bless her."
Sister Qiu, you are safe and sound!"
"When the time comes, I will use Qinggong to reach the top of the mountain the fastest!"
Song Qiu laughed when he heard this. Looking at Aling's little head, he couldn't help but rub it with his hands.
"What Shangtou Xiang pays for is sincerity. I guess you won't be able to find another person practicing Qing Kung in these ten miles and eight villages. Aren't you cheating?"
Ah Ling groaned and covered her head, "Sister Ah Qiu! I'm not a little girl anymore, and you're still rubbing my hair like this."
"Cheating? What is cheating?"
She didn't understand, but she understood what Song Qiu meant. She stuck out her tongue and said sheepishly: "Okay, I don't need Qinggong, but my legs and feet are quick, so I must be the fastest to reach the top of the mountain. Sister Aqiu, you can
Just watch!"
Song Qiu even laughed out loud.
Al-Ling watched her laugh out loud, revealing a row of small teeth, and her palm-sized face was as white as white, shining like jade in the sunlight from above, and she couldn't help but froze.
"Sister Ah Qiu, you look so pretty when you smile!"
Song Qiu pursed his lips and wanted to reach out to touch her head, "You are good-looking too."
Now Aling hid quickly and turned to the side, leaving Song Qiu with his hands free, and laughed loudly, "Yes, yes, we all look good!"
Song Qiu couldn't stop laughing. To be honest, she didn't have a mirror or anything, and she could only barely get a rough look at her face on the water. She didn't know whether it was good-looking or not, but the face was indeed small and tight.
People say that with a small face and exquisite facial features, you must be a beautiful woman.
I don’t know if I can do it accurately or not.
But it doesn't matter, her looks are just skinny, and she doesn't participate in beauty pageants.
As long as you look decent, don't make others miserable.
The carriage was swaying as it passed through a forest.
This is also the only long stretch of road from the town to Songshan Village where you cannot see the village.
There are lush forests on both sides, with overlapping shadows, making it difficult to see clearly what is in the forest.
But I have never heard of anything happening on this road.
Song Qiu has been here countless times and has never been worried.
But it's different today.
Before Aling even got close to this section, his expression suddenly became wary.
The carriage did not slow down. She quickly glanced at the woods on the left and right, and then lowered the curtain of the carriage without leaving a trace. She took a defensive posture and whispered, "Sister Aqiu, be careful. No matter what happens later,
What, don’t come out.”
Song Qiu is not as sharp as her. I don't know why the good Al-Ling is so alert all of a sudden, but I know that her senses are different, so there must be something wrong.
He nodded honestly and retreated into the carriage, not forgetting to warn, "You must be careful."
When the carriage reached the middle section, Aling's eyes suddenly sharpened and his hands were already on his waist.
There was a soft sword given to her by her master, but she would not take it off and use it easily.
But it's different today. She has already smelled the danger, and the person coming is not good!
Sure enough, at this moment, from the woods on both sides at the same moment, more than a dozen black shadows came out of the air with a clear purpose and directly surrounded the carriage.
Al-Ling's expression condensed, and the soft sword at her waist was already in her hand. She jumped into the air, and in an instant she had hands with the man in black who was pressing up.
Song Qiu heard the movement outside in the carriage, and his heart suddenly jumped.
Listening to the noise, there are quite a few people coming. I wonder if Aling can beat him.
She wanted to open the curtain and go out, but she stopped immediately. She had no power to restrain the chicken. The people who came were some powerful masters that Alingdu was wary of. They were not ordinary gangsters. Even if she went out, she would only cause trouble.
It's better to hide in the carriage obediently so as not to distract Aling.
It's just that my heart is inevitably worried.
A Ling was surrounded by more than a dozen people, swords and flowers flying, and his figure flexible.
But the person who came was not a drunkard, and soon Aling felt a little tired.
A man in black took the opportunity to attack him from behind, but Aling was unprepared and received a blow on his shoulder.
But he frowned and held it back, not stopping the moves on his hands.
She kept noticing that all the dozen or so people were surrounding her, and no one was going to the carriage. Obviously, these people were all coming for her.
Thinking about what my uncle said a few days ago about someone secretly watching her, and the strange pair of masters and servants dressed in red.
She had already guessed a little bit.
My memory is correct, Princess Qiancheng, the eldest daughter of Prince Hou's concubine, is exactly the same age as the girl in red.
Grandpa is the leader of the martial arts league, and it is not surprising that he is good at wielding swords, guns and whips.
It was all because she was careless before.
This time it brought such a big disaster!
Unprepared to guard his arm, he received another blow from the sword. Al-Ling knew in his heart that he could not defeat these people.
Gritting her teeth, she turned left, jumped into the air, landed back on the carriage, and patted the horse's butt hard.
"Sister Aqiu, you go first! I'll be right back!"
The horse was frightened and galloped forward.
Aling climbed over the top of the carriage and met the man in black who was chasing after him. He was once again surrounded in the middle.
Song Qiu, who was in the carriage, was startled and reacted quickly. He threw himself out of the carriage curtain, grabbed the reins, and stabilized the running carriage.
She quickly turned her head and took a look, her eyes were red with anxiety when she saw that Aling was surrounded by so many people and couldn't escape.
