When it was getting dark, the two of them appeared on the dirt road on the east side of the mountain range and waited by the roadside.
Qiu Yu asked confusedly: "What are we waiting for here?"
Jiang Ruolan replied, "Waiting for the shuttle bus to town..."
After a while, a green light flashed from a distance, attracting Qiu Yu to look over. He saw a white giant insect more than ten meters long running towards him, with an iron carriage placed on its flat back. The giant insect actually had densely packed
There are thousands of claws, and the green light comes from its eyes.
This creature is a giant king insect. It is huge and can run very fast, and its thousands of claws can provide near-perfect shock absorption. It is usually domesticated to carry people and cargo.
As Jiang Ruolan waved, the coachman controlling the giant insect shouted, and the giant insect stopped suddenly. The two of them grabbed the handrail and entered the carriage. There were many people inside, most of them dressed as poor people, and it was almost full. They saw that there was an empty seat at the back.
, Jiang Ruolan called Qiu Yu over, and squeezed the two of them just enough to sit down.
The driver gave the order, and the giant insect continued to move forward. It was very smooth and was just a little wobbly. Jiang Ruolan sat by the window, Qiu Yu was next to her, and smelled the faint fragrance that seemed to be there, and he couldn't help but glance at it.
In the past, when I looked at that beautiful profile with clear outlines, I felt that the skin was so delicate that it could be broken by a blow.
As the carriage swayed, the bodies of the two people inevitably rubbed back and forth, which made Qiu Yu's heart tremble. However, Jiang Ruolan suddenly turned her head and whispered in his ear: "If you dare to look around again, believe it or not, I will knock your eyes out."
Pull it out..."
Thinking of this woman's strength, Qiu Yu couldn't help but feel palpitations, and hurriedly turned her head to the other side, not daring to have any more thoughts. Seeing that he was frightened, Jiang Ruolan showed a proud smile on her face, she is really an interesting child!
More than an hour later, the giant king insects arrived at the passenger terminal in Yanyu Town. It was an extremely spacious courtyard with more than ten giant king insects parked inside. Seeing so many giant insects made Qiu Yu feel numb.
All the passengers got off the bus, and Jiang Ruolan paid the fare for the two of them, which was thirty copper coins. As they were about to leave, Jiang Ruolan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll take you home."
Qiu Yu hurriedly said: "No need, I know where home is. Thank you for sending me here."
"It's okay, it's just on my way. When will you go back to the academy?" Jiang Ruolan asked with interest as her bright eyes glanced over.
Qiu Yu scratched his head, "I can't tell, maybe in two days."
"Okay, see you in the academy. I'm waiting for you." Jiang Ruolan stretched out her slender hand as white as jade. The boy opposite was obviously flattered. He quickly shook her hand and agreed, "Okay, see you in the academy."
"I'm leaving. If you don't show up by then, I will be disappointed." With a chuckle, Jiang Ruolan turned around and left, disappearing in the light very quickly.
Watching that pretty figure gradually go away, Qiu Yu stood there in a daze, sighing inwardly, what a lovely woman, she should be the beauty of the college.
Although the two people had not been in contact for a long time, they got along very happily. In addition, Qiu Yu was no longer a soulless waste and now had some achievements in cultivation, which made him very happy and walked in the opposite direction with relaxed steps.
.
It was night market time, and the lights on both sides of the street were bustling with people. The vendors shouted hard, "Freshly roasted animal meat, fragrant and hot," "Zhaojia Baiguo Liquor, the fragrance floats ten miles away after opening the lid," "Quickly
Come and see, clothes and skirts are on sale..."
Nowadays, Qiu Yu is no longer the penniless poor boy he was before. After making a fortune, he decided to go shopping and buy some wine and meat to satisfy his craving for food, and then bring back some gifts for his mother and sister.
"How much does this dress and that outfit cost...where's the card?"
"How do you sell barbecue? I want this big piece."
"Bring me a jar of fruit wine..."
After bargaining, Qiu Yu spent almost five gold coins and returned home with a full load. He returned to a relatively remote alley and entered through the open courtyard door. He looked at the various debris piled on the ground and the old house in front of him. Although he was only passing through
He stayed for one night that day, but he felt full of intimacy, this was home.
There was light in the room. He did not push the door rashly and went in. He went to the window and looked inside. He saw his mother sitting at the dining table with a haggard face. He sighed and said, "Oh, I don't know where this kid Rob has gone.
There has been no news for more than two months, which is really worrying."
Standing against the wall not far away was Luo Lin, who also had a bad look on her face. She didn't seem to have combed her hair properly. She was arrogant and said angrily: "No, I have to go to Yanyu College tomorrow to find the dean for review. Why?"
They don't care about missing people, and they also say that our Rob is absent from school for no reason. They are so angry that I am not done with them..."
The corners of Qiu Yu's eyes outside the window were a little moist. If he was somewhat repulsive before, now he completely regards mother and daughter as relatives.
Since Rob disappeared, the mother and daughter put aside what they were doing to search for him. Ye Liyao stopped selling pancakes, and Luo Lin also took leave and ran around every day without combing her hair or washing her face. However, there were no clues at all, which made the mother and daughter extremely anxious.
Mother Ye Liyao frowned and said to herself: "Even if something happens to Rob, there should be some news. I always feel that he is acting a little weird after getting sick this time, as if he has become a different person."
Luo Lin nodded, "Yes, he is not like the old man at all."
"Could he be feeling something? He shouldn't be..."
"Mom, what do you mean by what you said?" Rowling asked in confusion.
Ye Liyao hesitated to speak and shook her head: "It's nothing... I just hope he is safe and sound..."
Qiu Yu outside couldn't bear it anymore and said loudly: "Mom, sister, I'm back..."
The familiar voice made the mother and daughter in the room overjoyed and exclaimed, "Ah, Rob is back." "It's my brother's voice."
The door opened and the mother and daughter rushed out. However, when they saw the young man carrying many things in the yard, they were stunned and stopped quickly. This was not Rob.
Yes, this boy has a well-proportioned figure and is not as fat as Rob. His eyes are also a lot bigger, and they are very bright in the dark. However, Rob's eyes always seem to be sleepy and can't be opened. Also, Rob is very dark and he is very white.
, obviously much more energetic and handsome.
Luo Lin, who was filled with disappointment at the first sight and had a somewhat irritable personality, flew into a rage and cursed: "What do you mean, you bastard, why are you pretending to be my brother and imitating his voice?"
Qiu Yu was stunned and said quickly: "Sister, don't you recognize me? I am really Rob."
However, Luo Lin didn't believe it and cursed: "Go away, my brother is so handsome. Look at you, you are as skinny as a monkey, and you don't even look at yourself in the mirror."
Ye Liyao felt something was wrong and hurriedly said: "Wait a minute..." She walked over quickly, lifted the boy's head and looked over. When she saw the red birthmark as big as a fingernail on his neck, she collapsed emotionally and choked up: "Lin
Son, he is really your brother Rob. He must have suffered a lot and is so thin that he no longer has a human shape..."
