When Gu Qiancheng woke up, he found himself lying on an earthen Kang covered with a "quilt" made of straw. It's better to call it a quilt, because Gu Qiancheng can't figure out what to call this sour smelling thing.
Lifting his quilt, Gu Qiancheng got out of bed and looked around. He found that this is an ordinary earth house, about five square meters in size. There is a tiny window on the south side, which can let the sun in.
Seeing the scene in front of him, Gu Qiancheng knew that he had been saved. But her rescuers didn't seem to be very reliable. She was still wearing the clothes she had worn when she fell into the water, but now she's dry.
"I've dried my wet clothes. I haven't caught a cold yet. I've really become stronger." Gu Qiancheng shakes his clothes like pickled vegetables and laughs in a good mood.
After she fell into the water, she swam down the stream. I don't know how long she swam. Anyway, when she was exhausted, she seemed to be caught in a net. Instead of struggling, she fainted. She thought she was dead, but she was rescued.
If you don't die in great danger, you will be blessed.
Gu Qiancheng tidied up a little, and was ready to go out to see who had saved her. But before he went out, he saw a lame man coming in with a bowl of hot soup.
"Aunt, are you awake The man saw Gu Qiancheng and quickly lowered his head.
The man looked twenty-five-six, pretty, like a scholar, but his face was a little pale, his body was thin, and his left foot was slightly lame. He could not see it standing there, but it was obvious when he walked.
The man was wearing a white washed blue cloth. There was no patch on the clothes and they were washed very clean. Just when talking with Gu Qiancheng, he kept his head down and didn't seem used to meeting strangers.
Gu Qiancheng see suspected Savior, can't help but show a smile, whispered: "you saved me?"
"Yes, I went fishing in the morning and accidentally hit the girl." The man was a little cramped and kept his head down when he spoke. Leng for a long time, then anxiously hand the hot fish soup to Gu Qiancheng, "girl, this is just boiled fish steam, you drink."
"Thank you," Gu Qiancheng took the bowl, but did not rush to drink. He asked casually, "how long have I been sleepy?"
The man seemed very nervous. He rubbed the corner of his clothes and said, "one day and one night, the girl fainted all day and one night."
"I slept so long?" Gu Qiancheng was surprised. His hand holding fish soup was slightly tight, and his long eyelashes drooped gently to cover the suspicion in his eyes.
A day and a night?
When she is a fool, can she dry her wet clothes one day and one night? What can she do with her boots?
Even if the other party burned the Kang to dry her clothes, but what about the boots?
The man didn't speak, just nervously pulling the corner of his clothes, as if he didn't know how to get along with Gu Qiancheng. Gu Qiancheng did not ask again. Instead, he said, "the fish soup is a little hot. I'll let it cool before I drink it."
"Gu, girl, whatever you like." The lame man left the words and went out in a hurry. It seemed that he was not good at getting along with women.
Gu Qiancheng didn't detain him. He just kept staring at his back: this man is strange, but it's not strange. He just feels uncomfortable.
When the man went out, Gu Qiancheng put the fish soup on the earth table and went to the window to look out. Gu Qiancheng was silly.
As you can see, there are no people nearby, only pieces of loess. It's not like being in a village or the fish village she's been to.
She only swam for one night, so it's impossible for her to swim out of Daqin, isn't it?
Gu Qiancheng was suspicious, not that she was seriously ill, but that the person who saved her was really strange.
Although the room she stayed in was not messy, it was very dirty, and the "quilt" she had just built smelled rotten, which was in sharp contrast to the clean clothes on the lame man.
The lame man said he was a fisherman, but when he just handed her fish soup, Gu Qiancheng clearly saw each other's white hands. People who fish in the river all the year round can't have a white hand.
What's more, the lame man obviously lied. She was definitely in a coma for more than one day, and the other party didn't burn the Kang to dry her clothes.
She has just seen that straw is under the Kang. If the Kang is really burned, straw will have a smell, and the "quilt" on her body can not be a sour smell.
All sorts of doubts make Gu Qiancheng very uneasy, and what makes her most uneasy is that there is only one family here. If she is killed, she will not know.
This place can't stay.
Gu Qiancheng untied his coat and found that the silver note and silver coins wrapped in wax paper were still there, and the powder had not been washed away. He knew that the lame man had really left her on the Kang after he rescued her.
Although Gu Qiancheng suspects that the lame man has a problem, she has no evidence now, and the other party has indeed saved her, so Gu Qiancheng takes out a 500 Liang silver note from the hidden silver note and presses it under the bowl.
This is her reward for saving each other's life.
If the other party is pure minded, 500 Liang silver is enough to live a good life.Gu Qiancheng puts on his boots and takes a look at the door. He finds that the other party is in the kitchen opposite the door. Gu Qiancheng doesn't hesitate and goes out quietly, but
As soon as she went out, she was blocked by a fat woman, who was at least five as big as Gu Qiancheng. Standing there, she gambled all the way to death.
The fat woman was holding a board in her hand and looked at Gu Qiancheng with a bad face. "You want to run."
He raised his hand and threw the board at Gu Qiancheng. Fortunately, Gu Qiancheng ran away quickly.
"Who are you?" Gu Qiancheng lost his dagger and used up all his arrows. In the face of the board that the fat woman kept waving, Gu Qiancheng could only dodge.
"The young master is right. The more beautiful a woman is, the worse she is. You are a bad woman, deceiving young people's feelings." Fat woman's strength is not small, although it can't be compared with Tang Wanjin's kind of natural power, but the huge wooden board dances in her hands, and she is not tired after a long time.
"What a bad woman, I haven't killed and set fire yet." Gu Qiancheng hit the fat woman with a fist. Her hand hurt, but the fat woman didn't even move.
Oh, my God. There are other advantages to being fat.
Gu Qiancheng no longer entangled and planned to go out over the wall, but as soon as she turned around, she was blocked by the lame man. "You are the first to see my limp and not show any abnormality. I didn't want to kill you. I wanted to keep you as my wife, but you're so smart that you found out. "
The lame man looked at Gu Qiancheng with regret, and his faint eyes made Gu Qiancheng creepy, "what did I find?"
Gu Qiancheng retreats behind the wall and looks warily at the lame man and the fat woman
Ma Dan, she thinks there is something wrong with this man. Sure enough
It's all about pretending to be nervous and embarrassed. That's what men really look like.
