Chapter two hundred and eighty seventh: the best look
Passers-by on the road were coming and going, Gu Nan stood there alone, watching Xu Wenren disappear into the crowd under the city gate.
He shook his head in confusion. It was a weird guy. He chased him to see the appearance, but he didn't say it after seeing it.
"I said that, others may think I am a lunatic."
Thinking back to Xu Wenren's words, Gu Nan smiled and didn't know what he saw and could not say it.
Previously, she learned some physiognomy when she was writing about Luoqimen Dunjia, and she also visited some people who studied physiognomy.
It cannot be said that the mystery is completely unfounded, it may be somewhat pointed out.
At the beginning, she didn't believe in this kind of thing very much, and mostly used it as a joke. However, as she gradually deepened, she found that real physiognomy was very different from most of the deceits in later generations. She also combined many medical theory and speculations on the theory of square and earth science in waiting and watching.
Gradually, she felt that this theory had some credibility, but the Xu Wenren just now had a bit of a simple look.
Looking at people is somewhat similar to doctors, and looking at people is also an ordinary method. Xu Wenren just looked at her palm for a long time, and didn't know what it was.
Without thinking too much, Gu Nan turned around and prepared to leave.
She had no money on her, and she couldn't get on the carriage. She should have many days left to go before Chenliu.
As for what Xu Wenren said about her being followed by a child, she knew that the little beggar who had given her three copper coins had already followed her from the city to the outside of the city, and now she is still watching secretly by the city gate.
She didn't plan to care about it. Her journey was not something the child could keep up with. She walked on for a while.
The child can't follow him, so it's time to leave.
······
The little beggar stood at the gate of the city, and his tattered clothes and the stench on his body made people on both sides not want to lean over.
The black little black hand was holding two white bread cakes, and the bread was still steaming. Because the hands were dirty, the white flour held in the hand was also stained with some black.
The little beggar hid at the foot of the city and secretly looked at the white-shanged man not far away. She didn't dare to walk over.
The man in Baichang carried his bamboo box on his back and turned around as if he was about to leave.
I slowly walked away on the road. Although my steps were not fast, I walked surprisingly fast. I had already walked more than ten meters in just a few breaths.
"ah."
The beggar's face looked panicked, he grabbed the bread in his hand and hurriedly ran to the figure walking away and followed.
"rustle."
The summer wind blows the trees on both sides of the road, making the trees in the forest sway.
It was getting late and the setting sun was setting. The sunset on this day was sinking into the clouds on the side of the sky. The sun was gone, and the clouds covered with scales on the side of the sky were only seen.
The light breeze in the summer evening blew away the sultry heat.
"Bang." The little beggar fell to the ground. She really couldn't run anymore. The people in front of her walked very quickly, and she ran all the way.
I was able to barely keep up because my father once taught her inner breath, otherwise I would have been so tired that I could not walk anymore.
One white bread fell to the ground and was already cold at this time. The other one was eaten by her when the white dress man stopped to rest.
She has never eaten this one, even though she hasn't eaten anything in more than a day.
The little beggar wanted to stand up, but could only kneel down and breathe.
The sweat on her face flowed away the dust on her face, making her face gray and black.
When he raised his head again, the white-shang man was gone.
The little beggar knelt there in a daze, lying on the ground, carefully picked up the white bread on the ground.
“Um…”
She couldn't help it and forced herself to bite her mouth, but she still let out a whimper.
But she did not shed tears. Her father once told her that his daughter would not cry.
“Woo…”
The beggar just sat there and whimpered in a dumb manner, like a little beast.
"call."
There seemed to be a sigh in the forest, echoing in the shadows of the trees.
The beggar was stunned for a moment, then raised his head in disbelief.
The man in white clothes stood with the black stick in his hand and walked back from the end of the road, standing under the shadow of the tree in front of her.
Gu Nan seemed to have some helplessness in his tone.
She was also surprised that even ordinary adults couldn't keep up with her footwork, so why did this little girl follow her for so long?
"You have been following me for almost two days. What are you going to do?"
The little beggar raised his head, came to his senses, swallowed, and got up from the ground with a breath, and walked to Gu Nan.
I lowered my head and looked at the white flour cake in my hand hesitantly. At this time, it should not be called white flour cake, as it is covered with dust and soil.
He pursed his lips and handed the white bread in his hand.
"Thank you, thank you."
The white flour cake was held in the small hand, and the dust and soil made the white flour cake black like the black flour cake.
Perhaps it was the bump along the way that the cake had been pinched and deformed, like a ball.
No one will have appetite after seeing such things.
But this is the best thing she can bring out now.
Gu Nan was stunned for a moment when he looked at the white bread and stood in front of the little beggar.
After following for two days, just to be here?
The shadow of the tree was accompanied by the light golden setting sun, shining on the two of them.
The person in front of him did not respond for a long time. The beggar glanced at the bread in his hand and slowly lowered his head.
Do you think it's dirty...
Her eyes were slightly red, her eyes drooped, and she said in a low voice.
"sorry···"
The hand holding the bread gradually lowered.
He grabbed the dough cake in her hand with one hand and took it away.
The beggar raised his head in surprise and saw the person in front of him smile at her.
"The things given to others are not worth taking back."
The man said as he put the incredible bread into his mouth.
Gu Nan ate the noodle cake in her hand and it was a very unpalatable smell, and the mud was bitter, but she ate it in big mouthfuls until she finished eating the noodle cake.
“It’s delicious, thank you.”
The little beggar listened to the sound in his ears.
The setting sun shines in the best look she has ever seen.
He whimpered in his mouth and finally lowered his head.
The hot stuff slid down her cheeks.
She wanted to walk up and grab the man, but she was afraid that she would get dirty again.
She only dared to stand there and cry. This was the first time she cried after her mother died.
······
"Bang."
A piece of firewood was added to the bonfire, and the flames leaped and splashed a few sparks.
The woods at night are particularly dark, with leaves covering the stars and moons, and only the light of the bonfire shaking in the forest.
