The coachman had a mournful look on his face, scratched his head and said in embarrassment, "Well, I really don't know how I ended up here. I didn't know that... there would be no road here."
Yu Qingluo stroked her forehead. In short, they had... reached a dead end.
"But girl, although we can't go out here, we can still go back and walk on the original road." Although a lot of time was wasted, this is the only safe way.
Yu Qingluo sighed and looked back at Nannan, who didn't feel the situation was difficult at all and was still trying to catch snakes for fun. She could only wave her hands and said, "That's all, you know the way back." "
The coachman nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, you can rest assured about this girl. And I won't accept the girl's travel expenses for this day."
"Hehe, hehe." Yu Qingluo greeted Nannan and got on the carriage, then went back along the same road as yesterday.
It was just that when we returned to the original intersection, it was already getting late. If we still followed the original route to the next town, we would definitely be late and camp outside again.
Yu Qingluo pondered for a while and directly asked the coachman to go back to the town they passed yesterday and rest for the night.
The coachman breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid of sleeping outside. Sleeping in a carriage was really uncomfortable. There were so many mosquitoes, rats, and ants, which was scary.
However, what Yu Qingluo didn't expect was that after her repeated delays, she would just pass by Ye Xiudu and others who were speeding up.
The three of them returned to the original inn and put down all their things. It was still early.
Nan Nan was jumping around to go for a walk. Yu Qingluo thought it was time to prepare some dry food, so she took the little guy out.
This town is not big, but the population is very dense. Even in such a hot weather, the streets are still busy with people coming and going.
I didn't take a good look at it yesterday, but now that I'm walking around, I realize that the economic development of this place seems to be surprisingly good. However, as a small town closest to the imperial capital, there are many merchants and traders coming and going, so it is normal for it to be so prosperous.
Yu Qingluo simply packed some of Nannan's favorite pastries and snacks and had them delivered to the inn where they were staying, and then she took the little guy on a stroll on the street.
But just after walking two streets, I suddenly heard loud cursing coming from in front of me.
Before Yu Qingluo had time to react, Nannan had already let go of her hand and quickly squeezed into the crowd.
Yu Qingluo gritted her teeth viciously at this bastard, and hurriedly followed him in.
As soon as I squeezed forward and grabbed Nannan's slippery little body, I heard the people around me pointing and saying, "This child is also pitiful. That person must have scolded her too much."
"Yeah, isn't it just hiding in his carriage? Is this really necessary?"
Yu Qingluo then looked in the direction of someone else's finger, and she saw at the door of a very ordinary inn, a burly man with a sinister face holding an extremely embarrassed little girl in ragged clothes. The child's face was so dirty that he couldn't even see his face clearly.
The big man who was just cursing suddenly turned his head, glared at the two people who had just spoken, and roared, "You know what the heck, this little beggar actually hid in my carriage in the middle of the night when no one was paying attention. I want to do this." I am going to the imperial capital for business. If I am discovered by the officers and soldiers when I enter the city, they may think that I am harboring criminals. Look at her, look at her like this, she is definitely not a good thing."
The big man said, grabbing the child's chin hard and turning her face this way.
Only then did Yu Qingluo realize that the child's hair was pulled to one side. Looking from the front, the edges and corners were still very sharp, and his eyes were flexible and clear.
The little girl seemed to be frightened. She kicked the big man hard and screamed, but she looked like she couldn't even speak clearly.
The big man was annoyed by her and reached out to pull her hair.
The little girl also got angry and bit his sleeve, and a small piece was torn off. However, the next moment, she happily bit her sleeve and started chewing, trying to swallow it into her mouth.
Yu Qingluo frowned suddenly, but fortunately the big man was also stunned for a moment, and pulled his sleeve out of her mouth.
The little girl stared at him fiercely and jumped up to get the little sleeve.
Everyone was stunned, and then pitiful voices sounded one after another, "This child is a fool. I say this big brother, she is so pitiful, so don't blame her. She didn't hide in your carriage on purpose. Don’t think it’s just fun.”
Yu Qingluo pursed her lips. Nannan, who had been silent until now, suddenly pulled her sleeves and whispered, "Mother, mother."
Yu Qingluo bent down slightly and put her ear close to his lips.
"Mom, that little girl seems to be the one who was chased and killed on the road yesterday." He glanced behind him at that time. Although he couldn't see clearly, he definitely knew the man who was alone against many people. , there is a child of this size.
Moreover, he caught a glimpse of the clothes the child was wearing. Under the left hem, there was a small, weird-shaped butterfly. Exactly the same as the kid in front of me.
Yu Qingluo tightened her fingers slightly. Sure enough, it seemed that this child was really no ordinary person.
To be able to dispatch so many people to attack and hunt her, this child's life experience must not be simple.
This is trouble... Yu Qingluo doesn't want to get into trouble now. She is still thinking about Grandma Ge and is anxious to go to the Mongolian tribe.
Moreover, from the look of the big man, she probably wouldn't embarrass the little girl again. As for her future, it depends on her own destiny.
As expected, the big man was also a cold-faced and soft-hearted person. When he saw the child whining so stupidly that he couldn't even speak clearly, he couldn't help but sympathize with him.
Sighing, he could only nod his head and said, "Forget it, think of me as unlucky. I'm warning you, you're not allowed to hide in my carriage again in the future, just take a walk."
The big man let go, but the little girl was still jumping around to find his sleeve.
"Let's go, let's go." The big man became impatient, turned around and walked towards the inn, but when he saw the child also coming in, his expression immediately darkened again.
The waiter of the inn saw this posture, so as not to disturb other guests, he hurried forward and carried the little girl out without saying a word.
The child squirmed in his arms, and the waiter almost couldn't hold her up, so he grabbed her clothes and pulled them up.
At this mention, Nan Nan's pupils shrank suddenly, and she quickly grabbed Yu Qingluo's hand tightly, and said eagerly, "Mother, mother, look over there, it's... a birthmark."
Yu Qingluo was stunned, and looked in the direction of Nan Nan's finger, and she really saw the flower-shaped birthmark on the little girl's waist... exactly the same as Nan Nan's.
