Chapter 118 What happened to the lonely king?
Early the next morning, Yun Chengfu had breakfast and followed Yun Sanlang and He Chunxiu on the ox cart to the shop in town.
Baoya, Yun Chenglu, Yunhua, and Yunyue stood at the front door together, waving goodbye to him: "Brother, study hard and come back to teach us how to study!"
Yun Chengfu hugged his bookcase and waved at them: "Okay! Let's go back!"
After seeing Yun Chengfu off, Baoya and Yun Chenglu calculated that it had been two days since they last saw Nanxuan and Jingzhen in Ping'an Town, so it was time to go to Huya Mountain.
Now everyone in the family knew that they were learning from the hermit master in Huya Mountain. The two of them said hello to Zhao Zhilan and went to the back mountain under the watchful eyes of Yunhua and Yunyue.
This time when they went to Huya Mountain, Zhao Zhilan packed a basket full of bacon and sausages made by her and He Chunxiu for the two of them, and asked them to take it to the master and the junior brother to eat.
Baoya thought of the stir-fried bamboo shoots with bacon that Nanxuan made last time, licked her lips, and felt hungry again.
The two of them walked briskly into Tiger Tooth Mountain. As usual, Baoya took out her bamboo whistle and blew it twice.
After a while, she saw a white shadow rushing out of the woods and rushing towards her.
"My king!" Baoya opened her little hands and shouted happily.
But the king was so powerful that he was about to reach Baoya without slowing down at all. His sharp claws brought out a rustling wind.
"Baoya, be careful!" Yun Chenglu's face turned pale with horror, and he stretched out his hand to hug Baoya in his arms.
The lonely king brushed past the two of them and rushed straight towards a big tree behind them.
"Huh!" Yun Chenglu was still in shock. Seeing Jing Zhen pacing towards him, he felt a little scared. "Jing Zhen, what's wrong with me today? Why did you suddenly go crazy?"
Jingzhen ignored him, walked up to him, reached out to pull Baoya out of his arms, and walked towards the big tree.
He said calmly, "I wouldn't do that. He must have discovered something."
He walked over holding Baoya's hand, and Yun Chenglu followed. They saw Gu Wang standing next to a big tree, with his head lowered, teeth bared, a fierce look in his eyes, and a vicious sound coming out of his mouth.
"What's behind that?" Baoya took Jingzhen's hand, leaned over and looked over, and caught a glimpse of a brown-red corner of clothes behind the tree.
"Huh?" She leaned forward again and saw a very familiar figure, "Chen Xiaojuan?"
At this time, Chen Xiaojuan was huddled behind a big tree. A corner of her jacket was torn off, and the cotton inside flew out.
But she didn't dare to move at all. She bit her lower lip tightly, squatted with her hands on her knees, and tears welled up in her eyes.
This morning, she received a cornmeal bun from Zhou Cuihua and was then kicked out. She was told to go to the neighboring Heishui Village to play with the silly young master of the Wang family. It would be best if she could get some gold and silver jewelry. If that didn't work, bringing back some food would also be good.
Not long after she left the house, she saw Baoya and Yun Chenglu going up Tiger Tooth Mountain, and she followed them as if possessed.
But before they had followed for long, the two men stopped and Baoya took out a whistle and blew it twice.
She was just wondering if this little girl Baoya had some secret ways to get rich, when a white shadow pounced towards her. When she looked closely, she saw that it was a big white dog that was taller than her when it stood up!
The big white dog was very ferocious. It pounced on her and bit her clothes, scaring her so much that she dared not move.
Jingzhen originally thought that the king had hurt someone by mistake, but Baoya called out the little girl's name.
He frowned and asked Baoya, "Do you know him?"
Baoya nodded: "She is the daughter of Aunt Zhou who lives across the street from me."
The four words "opposite my house" evoked Jingzhen's memory of the last time he took Baoya to get the little treasure box back.
Isn’t the family next door the one that adopted Baoya but abused her and had their woodshed burned down?
Instantly, when he looked at Chen Xiaojuan again, his eyes turned cold: "You're so young and you're already doing such sneaky things!"
"I..." Chen Xiaojuan's lips were trembling. "I was wrong... Hurry up and call the dog away!"
Jing Zhen didn't move: "Will you dare to do it again next time?"
"I don't dare anymore... I don't dare anymore!" Chen Xiaojuan almost screamed, and tears fell down.
Jingzhen then called out "Gu Wang". Gu Wang let out a low "Awooo" and turned away reluctantly. He walked to Baoya and rubbed her short legs.
"Brother Xiaojing, let's go." Baoya shook Jingzhen's hand. She didn't want to stay here early in the morning and waste time with someone she didn't like.
Jingzhen nodded: "Okay."
The three of them ignored Chen Xiaojuan and turned to walk deeper into Huya Mountain.
The lonely king followed at the back, looking back every few steps to stare at Chen Xiaojuan's position.
It didn't understand why its owner stopped it when it had just clearly felt the malice of this little guy, and the little guy beside the owner didn't say anything.
With the lonely king staring at her, Chen Xiaojuan dared not move at all. She did not stand up until the shadows of the three people and the wolf disappeared from her sight. She trembled and held on to the tree.
Looking at the deserted mountain road, a hint of hatred flashed in Chen Xiaojuan's eyes.
She just followed to take a look, but that beast tore her clothes. She would definitely be scolded to death by Zhou Cuihua when she returned!
But she soon thought of the handsome young man next to Baoya and clenched her fists.
The young man's clothes and appearance are very extraordinary. How could Baoya, that little girl, know such a person in Huya Mountain!
She was very angry. When she thought about having to go to Wang's house alone to find that stupid young master who was drooling all over his mouth, she felt so angry that she wanted to cry.
On the other side, Baoya and the others had passed through the misty bamboo forest and arrived at Peach Blossom Spring.
The peach orchard outside the bamboo fence courtyard is still full of peach blossoms. From a distance, it looks like a sea of pink flowers.
As the three of them entered the courtyard, they saw Nan Xuan walking out with a bowl in his hand.
"Are you here? Look how accurate my calculations are. I knew you were coming today, so I prepared the soy milk, fried dough sticks, and spicy pickles."
When he said that, Baoya's nose twitched: "Hey, Master, this is soy milk you're drinking, right?"
"Smart!" Nan Xuan reached out and touched her little head. "Have you had breakfast? Come in and have some together. As soon as that brat Jingzhen heard the bamboo whistle, he put down his bowl and chopsticks and ran out, as if his soul had been taken away."
"We've delayed Brother Xiaojing's meal," Baoya said a little embarrassedly. "Master, actually... I'm almost leaving the Misty Bamboo Forest. Otherwise, my second brother and I can come by ourselves next time."
"It's okay, I'll pick you up." Jing Zhen said before Nan Xuan could speak.
If he hadn't brought me here to pick them up today, this silly girl and her silly second brother wouldn't have even known they were being followed.
Nan Xuan caught a glimpse of his tense little face, curled his lips and chuckled softly, "Let this brat take it. It won't take up much time anyway. If you have anything with you, he can even be your baggage carrier."
"Oh," Baoya nodded, "Then we'll choose a suitable time next time."
The four of them walked into the bamboo building while talking. Breakfast for four people had already been prepared on the low table in the small hall.
Douzhi, Jiaoquan, and spicy pickled vegetable shreds are standard Beijing flavors.
Nan Xuan looked at Baoya with an excited face, Jingzhen with an expressionless face, and Yun Chenglu with a frown, and smiled with a look of success.
"How about you come and try my cooking?"
