he walks in the world

Chapter 61 On this day, it was raining heavily in Gusu City
In the early hours of the morning, it began to rain suddenly, and it continued without stopping. It rained heavily in Gusu City that day, and the sound of the rain was too loud, crackling, and noisy.The raindrops were as big as beans, falling into the city, knocking the ground continuously, and drenching the eaves and curtains continuously.

The sky in the early morning is gray, the clouds are very low pressure, the city is gray, and there are not even a few weeds on the roadside.There are fewer people on the road, because the rain came too fast, and all the people on the road have taken shelter from the rain, and there are not even a few vendors along the street.

In a secluded inn, Gu Mancao was feeding Meng Qingping medicine. The medicine tasted bitter, but the medicine was too bitter. Meng Qingping's face seemed wrinkled, and he gritted his teeth and couldn't speak.

Gu Mancao hastily put down the medicine bowl, took sweet sugar from the side and fed it to Meng Qingping, and said softly: "I know this medicine is bitter, but you can't do without medicine, now it's a bit bitter, it will be fine soon, just bear with it, it will be soon." Enough!"

"It's not bitter, it's not bitter, how could the medicine made by Miss Cao'er be bitter!"

With sweet candy in his mouth, Meng Qingping smiled playfully again, causing Gu Mancao to roll his eyes.If it wasn't for the concern that Meng Qingping was injured internally, it might have just been a few punches.

The half-hidden door was suddenly opened, and Du Ruo walked in with a bamboo hat in his hand. The bamboo hat was still dripping with water, dripping on the floor like a thread, and the hair on the ear temples was also dripping slowly. stains.

Meng Qingping turned sideways and asked, "Boss Du, how are you doing? Have you found someone good?"

Du Ruo put the bamboo hat in the corner, walked over again, lifted the robe, sat on the stool, and said: "The plan last night will not work, I just went out, and saw many people from the Nangong family holding Miss Gu's mother and daughter and We searched everywhere for your portrait, we underestimated Song Jifan's power, we didn't expect him to be able to invite the Nangong family to take action."

Meng Qingping's complexion changed, and he said, "Then what should we do? This Gusu City is the territory of the Nangong family, and black and white are both. I'm afraid that even the gates and docks of the city have been guarded by this time."

"That's right," Du Ruo nodded and said, "In this city of Gusu, the Nangong family has spoken, and all the three sects and nine streams have already mobilized. Although the government has not mobilized, the city gates and wharves have been stationed by the Nangong family. We want to It is impossible to leave Gusu City."

Gu Mancao's face turned pale, and she couldn't help holding Meng Qingping's hand tightly, her eyes were full of worry, but she didn't know what to say.

Meng Qingping slowly turned over from the bed and sat up, put the other hand on Gu Mancao's cold hand, nodded at her, gave her a positive look, and asked: "Then, Boss Du, what do you have now?" what's the plan?"

At this time, Meng Qingping could only place his hope on Du Ruo. Moreover, he didn't even know why, but somehow had confidence in Du Ruo, believing that Du Ruo would definitely have a solution.

Du Ruo had no expression on his face, and he couldn't figure out what his state of mind was, so he just said plainly: "The most important thing at the moment is that we have to change to a relatively safe place. Brother Lu and Heitou have already returned to our previous inn to move things. , You guys pack up now and follow me."

Because Meng Qingping was injured last night, Du Ruo and the others found a nearby inn to stay after leaving the hospital. Early this morning, Lu Yang and Heitou went back to their previous inn to pick up things. came back.

Meng Qingping didn't ask where he was going, but just nodded and responded, and asked Gu Mancao to help him get his clothes. They fled in a hurry last night, and they didn't have anything to pack.

Soon, Du Ruo went downstairs with Meng Qingping on his back, followed closely by the mother and daughter of the Gu family. Gu's mother put on the bamboo hat and helped Du Ruo hold the Tang sword, while Gu Mancao held a big umbrella in her hand, carefully followed.

Down the stairs, to the lobby.

The door of the inn was closed, and Gu Mancao hurried over to open the door, when she passed the counter, she suddenly let out a scream, pointed to the inside of the counter, and stammered: "Then...that...someone...they ..."

There were two people tied to the pillars with ropes, both in a coma. They were the shopkeeper and waiter of the inn.

Du Ruo walked over with Meng Qingping behind her back, glanced at them, and said, "Just in case, I knocked them unconscious, don't worry, I didn't kill them!"

Gu Mancao breathed a sigh of relief, then slowly opened the door, poked her head out to look around, this street is relatively remote, there are not many people on weekdays, and today it is raining heavily, even some shops on both sides of the street are empty. open the door.

Stepping on the puddles of water on the ground, the sound of crackling raindrops came from the bamboo hat, which was harsh in this solitude, and the noodle shop next to it was still steaming. sound.

Gu's mother and daughter closely followed Du Ruo's footsteps, looking left and right, carefully, for fear that a group of people would rush out from somewhere if they were not paying attention.

The rain on the oil-paper umbrella washed away, like a curtain of waterfalls, somewhat blocking the view, Du Ruo carried Meng Qingping on her back, lowered her head slightly, and said softly: "Madam Gu, Miss Gu, don't worry, I have just checked here That's right, people from the Nangong family haven't been searched yet."

The mother and daughter of the Gu family breathed a sigh of relief. Gu Mancao gently moved the umbrella towards Du Ruo and Meng Qingping. She was already half wet, but she didn't take it to heart. Du Ruo was carrying Meng Qingping on her back, so it was inconvenient to open the umbrella. , it is not convenient to wear a bamboo hat, and Meng Qingping has an arm injury, so it is not convenient to open an umbrella.

Turning around the street corner, it was rainy and foggy. There was a lot of water flowing down from the eaves on the gray wall and slowly flowing to the ground. At the corner was a teahouse beside the road. On this rainy day, there were not many people in the hall. There is only one boss, one waiter, a few sets of tables and chairs, three or five tea customers, and only one pot of clear tea is ordered, and you have to drink it one cup at a time.

In the teahouse, the shopkeeper kept tapping his abacus, his brows and eyes were a little anxious, and he didn't know if the account could not be reconciled. The guests, although they were drinking tea, did not have the demeanor of tasting tea at all, as noisy as a tavern.

Those few tea drinkers should be street thugs on this street. There is always a shortage of such people in every place. Whether it is leisure time or busy time, there will be a group of people who are always wandering around in certain places. They are always in groups of three or five, saying some kind words, but they don't even know what to eat for the next meal.

Some people came suddenly in this rainy street, which naturally attracted the attention of those ruffians, and seeing a young woman under the umbrella, they even joked and said some vulgar words.

Du Ruo and the others ignored it and left.

In the street, apart from the sound of rain, there is only the sound of wind,
Except for Du Ruo and his party of four, there was no one else.

However, walking slowly, there were three more people behind.
