Chapter 24 Running
The other party didn't speak or move. Shen Liuzhen swallowed involuntarily.
At this time, Xie Yuan's shout came from the distance: "Liu Zhen! Shen Liu Zhen! Where are you?!"
And as her shouts got closer and closer, Shen Liuzhen could see in his mind Xie Yuan's figure, like a flexible fish, moving quickly through the crowded crowd.
"I'm here, Ah Yuan!!" Shen Liuzhen shouted so loudly that his throat almost broke.
The leading boy sneered and said, "What's the point of calling him here? You two brats with no hair at all, hand over your money quickly! If you don't have money, take off your clothes!"
Xie Yuan's footsteps were very light when he ran. There was no snapping sound on the soles of his feet like ordinary people would. At most, it was just a rustling sound when the soles of his feet hit the ground.
Before the voice of the leading young man could be heard, a figure rushed into the alley with the wind and stood directly next to Shen Liuzhen.
Xie Yuan put his hand on the small sword on his waist, and with a pair of red phoenix eyes filled with natural power, he asked: "What are you doing?"
The young man took a quick look and found that although the child he saw looked very capable, he was still a little kid who was a head lower than them, so he didn't take it to heart at all. He took a step forward with his head lowered. Threaten: "What are you doing? Robbery! Hand over both of your money! And this sword!"
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to reach for Xie Yuan's sword.
Xie Yuan drew out his sword with a clang, and with one stroke, the boy's arm was cut with a big gash.
The young man covered his injury and quickly took two steps back, looking at her warily.
Xie Yuan raised his sword in his hand, his red and phoenix eyes were fierce and powerful, and he flicked a neat sword flower with his backhand, and then he was like a dragon exploring the sea, and he stepped and stopped there.
Her talent is already high, and her casual stances can bluff people, not to mention that after practicing seriously for three years, she shows off her strength with every move, and makes a sound of wind.
The leading boy was frightened. He had never thought that a child could have such ability. He was stunned for a moment, covered his arms and ran away with others.
Seeing that they had all run away, Xie Yuan neatly put the small sword into its sheath. As soon as he stood still, Shen Liuzhen hugged her waist, and his whole body fell limply to the ground, crying pitifully: "... ...A Yuan! Fortunately you are here, they said they would sell me and even take off my clothes!"
Seeing his exaggerated expression and the pair of dimples caused by his split mouth, Xie Yuan impatiently twisted his waist and threw his arm away, saying:
"Oh~ I'm pretending to be pitiful here again! Get up!"
Shen Liuzhen stood up, wiped his tears and said, "Look, I'm really scared!"
"What are you afraid of? I'm here to protect you, so don't be afraid!" Xie Yuan said proudly.
Shen Liuzhen was very happy and approached her again, holding her wrist and saying, "Good brother, it all depends on you. Don't stay too far away from me!"
"Then you should hurry up! We can't catch up with "Three Kingdoms"!" Xie Yuan ran away after saying that. Shen Liuzhen grabbed her wrist tightly and refused to let go. He was dragged away, for fear that she would disappear in the blink of an eye. .
The two children boarded the hall on the second floor in a hurry.
On the table in the middle, each person has a table and a book, and he is talking about "The Biography of Zhuge Liang": "...Liang worked hard to cultivate the long acres in order to write "Liang Fu Yin". He is eight feet tall, and he is often compared to Guan Zhong, Le Yi, and other people of the time. Mo Zhixu also..."
Xie Yuan sat at the table, breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's okay, it's not too late."
Shen Liuzhen rolled his eyes, looked around at the crowds of people here, and said: "...What's so funny about this? You have a whole set of books at home and you don't want to read them, so you have to come here to listen to what others say?"
Xie Yuan sat up straight, without moving his eyes, and said: "It's hard to read the words, it's so good to listen to what others say. Don't talk, listen carefully..."
Shen Liuzhen stopped talking and listened attentively. He also liked Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Although he had read the full text, because it was so well written and brilliantly written, and the stories in it were still lively and interesting, he would not listen to it a few times. Feel bored.
The waiter in the restaurant ran over and served them a bottle of wine and two plates of side dishes. He greeted them warmly:
"I thought the two gentlemen weren't coming today."
Shen Liuzhen took out a handful of copper coins from his arms and put them on the table, while Xie Yuan said "Thank you" while staring intently, which was considered as a greeting.
The waiter knew that they were the children of a family who lived in a distant suburb, and that they had high status and it was hard to offend them, so he accepted the money with a respectful smile and got out of the way.
After a while, there were faint sounds of commotion and the sound of horse hooves downstairs. Shen Liuzhen looked down and saw his father riding a horse with his soldiers passing by below.
He quickly retracted his head, ran back to Xie Yuan and said, "Hurry, hurry, my dad is back and he will definitely look for us two."
When Xie Yuan heard this, he ran down quickly. Shen Liuzhen couldn't catch up: "Wait for me!"
"Hurry up! Master rides very fast!" Xie Yuan's voice sounded distant.
The two of them came on horseback, but in order to run faster in crowded areas, they tied their horses at the entrance of the market. At this time, they had to rush back to ride horses, which was really confusing.
While Shen Liuzhen chased Xie Yuan desperately, he thought in his heart that he would never run out again, it would be too tiring!
As Xie Yuan ran, he remembered that when Shen Liuzhen had just arrived, he was blocked by someone asking for money, so he quickly went back and dragged him away.
Finally, the two men got on their horses and hurried back.
Xie Yuan's father was busy with official duties as a county magistrate, and the two of them agreed to practice archery at Shen Liuzhen's house. However, in order to go out for fun, they also told the Shen family that they would study at Xie's house, so they were in this situation. Came out by cheating.
If the adults in the family found out that the two of them had the courage to run out, they would definitely be beaten twice.
Shen Liuzhen, who was galloping on a horse, took a sip of wind when he opened his mouth, but he still tried his best to say to Xie Yuan, who was a horse head ahead:
"My father usually visits your house first when he comes back. We should still have a chance!"
At this time, they happened to turn out of the woods. Far away across a river, they saw Father Shen stopping at the door of Xie's house and entering. His soldiers were leading their horses to the gate of Shen's house.
"Oh... hurry up, my father is not here, he can't stay long, we are too late!" Xie Yuan said.
As they spoke, the two of them ran faster.
When they finally arrived at the door of Xie's house, Father Shen had just entered his own house.
"It's over..." Shen Liuzhen said dumbfounded.
At this time, Xie Yuan quickly got off his horse and ran towards the gate of Xie's house like a little leopard. As he ran, he said: "Don't worry about the horse for now! We can get over my house and have a chance!"
Shen Liuzhen's eyes lit up and he quickly ran inside.
Xie Yuan usually runs around like the wind. The servants of the Xie family were not surprised to see her like this. As a result, Shen Liuzhen also followed behind her, running like a ghost... Those who saw it couldn't help but They all showed strange expressions.
