The breeze roars the rivers and lakes

The wind and snow are still dancing on the ground of the world, and the sky is full of snowflakes at a glance.The world covered in silver will always make wanderers who leave home think of some people and some things.

Lin Yu dragged his tired body, walking slowly in the snow like a wounded wolf.The heavy snow had already wet his clothes, but he didn't care, he didn't even care about the snow on his body.

Where does the road ahead lead?

In his heart, Lin Yu asked himself this question over and over again.But apart from the howling wind and snow, there was no other sound, let alone answer his question!

Suddenly, Lin Yu's pace slowed down a little, not because he was tired, but because he heard the sound of a carriage passing by on the snow.

Sure enough, within half a quarter of an hour, a carriage galloped past him, but it stopped soon after, and a head poked out from inside. Judging by the decoration, it should be a maid.But even though she was a maid, her tone of voice didn't look like a maid at all.

"Hey, my lady asked if you need help, can we give you a ride along the way?"

Lin Yu pulled up the wine bag on his body and took a sip of the hot wine. Although he had a protective body with zhenqi, he could walk freely in the snow even in summer clothes.It's just that he feels that if he doesn't drink two sips of hot wine that burns knives, he is really sorry for the heavy snow.

"Hey, I was talking to you, didn't you hear?" The maid's voice was a little higher than before, and her tone was much gloomy, as if she was very impatient.

Lin Yu still ignored her, just glanced at her with disdain, and continued to walk forward quietly, as if he hadn't seen her at all.

Seeing this, the maid let out an angry snort, put down the curtain and got into the carriage.

There is also a middle-aged man about 40 years old in the carriage, and a young woman in her twenties. Judging from her appearance and clothes, she should be a father and daughter.

Seeing the angry look on the servant girl's face, the woman asked with a hint of incomprehension, "Chunlan, what's the matter, is that young master unwilling to come up?"

Chunlan curled her lips and replied, "Miss, that person is deaf. I called him several times, but he ignored me. Let's hurry on our way. Mr. Zhuo and the others are still waiting for us at the inn ahead!"

The woman paused for a moment, and said: "The snow outside is so heavy, I think he is wearing very thin clothes, and the distance from the nearest small town is more than [-] miles away, he will be frozen to death on the road like this .”

The maid named Chun Lan curled her lips again, with a dissatisfied look on her face, and said: "Miss, you are just too kind-hearted. And you can see that I have called him several times in a row, and he can't even say a word." No, such an impolite person deserves to freeze to death."

Hearing Chunlan's words, the woman rolled her eyes and said: "Chunlan, how can you say that, maybe it's because the wind and snow are too heavy, that young master didn't hear it?"

After finishing speaking, the woman turned her eyes to the middle-aged man who was taking a nap with half-closed eyes, and asked in a coquettish tone, "Father, do you think so?"

The middle-aged man lazily opened his eyes, and replied repeatedly: "Yes, yes, our Ruoxue is a living Bodhisattva who saves suffering."

The woman named Ruoxue had a slightly displeased expression on her face. She rolled a blank look at the middle-aged man and said, "Father, you're making fun of my daughter again!"

After saying this, the middle-aged man knocked on the door of the carriage and shouted loudly: "Uncle Sun, invite that young master to get on the carriage later, if he insists on not coming, give him this mink coat Come to keep out the cold."

The coachman named Uncle Sun responded, drove up to Lin Yu, and asked, "little brother, the wind and snow are relatively heavy, and the weather is cold. Seeing that your body is very thin, my master wants to invite you to come to the carriage Sit down, I wonder if you would like to?"

Lin Yu glanced at the carriage. Although the surroundings of the carriage were tightly covered with curtains, he still counted the number of people inside according to the sound of breathing.

There were three people in the carriage, one male, around forty, his breathing was steady, he must have practiced martial arts for several years, two females, one was the fat servant girl just now, her breathing was a little short, and she didn't know martial arts.There is also a woman, who should be the eldest lady in her mouth. She can hardly hear her breathing. She must be practicing internal energy frequently, and from the looks of it, the internal energy should be pretty good.

After realizing this, Lin Yu became a little interested, forced a smile, and asked, "thank you for your invitation, but I don't have any money with me, so I can't pay the fare."

Before the coachman could speak, a middle-aged man's head poked out from the carriage, and said with a smile: "Little brother, what are you talking about? How can you be greedy for money when you do good deeds every day? I see this heavy snow, short There is no time to stop. There are no small towns in front of me, so my journey is really boring. If you don’t dislike the rudimentary carriage, please come up and have a cup of hot shochu to warm your body!"

Lin Yu saw that what he said was very sincere, so he didn't continue to refuse, bowed his hands and saluted, and said with a smile, "then I will bother you so much!"

Uncle Sun, the coachman, lifted the thick felt curtain, and Lin Yu's eyes just met the disdainful eyes of the maid Chunlan. The chubby maid gave a cold snort, and turned her eyes to other places.

At this moment, Lin Yu saw another pair of eyes, eyes full of warm smile.The owner of this eye is naturally the eldest lady mentioned by the maid.And it seems that she is more approachable than that domineering maid.

"Little brother, why are you still standing there, please come up!" The middle-aged man shouted again at this time.

Lin Yu smiled slightly, nodded, and sat down at the position closest to the car curtain.In addition to the three people in the carriage, there was also a stove that was burning red charcoal, and a pot of wine was boiling on it, and it seemed that it was about to boil.

Lin Yu took a little breath, pointed at the jug and said with a smile: "The smell of burning knives is really mellow!"

The middle-aged man was startled when he heard the words, and then asked with some joy: "Little brother, do you also like drinking?"

Lin Yu didn't answer directly, but directly took off the empty wine bag on his body, and shook it twice in front of the middle-aged man.

Seeing the situation, the middle-aged man couldn't help laughing out loud, his laughter was rough and unrestrained, which made people feel very comfortable.

"By the way, little brother, where are you going? Are you also going to attend the martial arts conference in Huashan?" The middle-aged man looked Lin Yu up and down and asked with some doubts.

Lin Yu was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, smiled slightly, and replied: "Well, junior, I have nothing to do at home. I heard that this martial arts conference is a grand event in the Central Plains martial arts, so I plan to go to join in the fun and learn more .”

The middle-aged man nodded heavily, and said: "This little brother is right. Young people should experience more outside. If they stay at home, they must be a sick child who can't make great things."

When the middle-aged man said this, he glanced at his daughter out of the corner of his eye, and his tone was slightly wrong, as if there were other meanings in the words.

At this moment, the woman gave him a blank look, and pretended to be angry and called out: "Father!"

The middle-aged man waved his hand angrily, and said, "Why, what I'm telling is not telling the truth. Isn't your cousin Wenlai just a sick man who always lives at home?"

The woman was really angry this time, snorted coquettishly, and said angrily: "Didn't my cousin agree to accompany us to the martial arts conference this time? Dad, why are you still talking about him behind your back?"

Not to be outdone, the middle-aged man snorted, and responded, "What's the matter with him? I'm not only talking about him behind my back, but when I meet him later, I'm going to talk about it in front of him!"

When Lin Yu saw that the father and daughter had quarreled, the scene seemed very embarrassing for a while, and the chubby maid was still asleep at this time, and even snored directly.

Seeing this situation, in desperation, Lin Yu hurried forward to persuade him: "Uncle, miss, please stop arguing. This is the first time for this junior to go out. If uncle doesn't bother you, please tell me about the martial arts conference. Bar?"

When he said this, Lin Yu's smile was sincere, his tone was sincere, and his expression was so curious that anyone would think that he was a stunned boy who had just entered the rivers and lakes.Only such a person will have a strong curiosity about everything in the world.

Middle-aged men always like to show off in front of younger generations, and often talk about where they went in their early years and what kind of big shots they met.Now seeing someone come to his door and listening to his nagging, he is of course overjoyed.Soon, the unhappiness just now was thrown out of the blue, and he personally gave Lin Yu a cup of hot wine, and asked with a very generous smile: "By the way, our acquaintance is due to fate, I don't know what to call the little brother ?”

Lin Yu paused for a moment, and replied: "The junior's surname is Mu, and the single character is Lin."

The middle-aged man laughed loudly and said: "Little brother, you must be short of wood in the five elements, so your parents gave me such a name. But why didn't I call it Mu Sen? Wouldn't it be a little more wood?"

Lin Yu was startled when he heard the words. He just didn't want to reveal his real name and cause unnecessary trouble, so he said a name casually. How could he know that there were so many details.Immediately, he smiled awkwardly and asked, "I don't know what to call my uncle?"

The middle-aged man replied with a straight voice: "This old man is Mei Tiantong, Meiyuan, Daming Mansion, and that is my daughter, Mei Ruoxue!"

When the middle-aged man introduced the woman, she smiled at Lin Yu to show her friendliness.It seems that the unhappiness just now has been left behind.

Lin Yu also showed a faint smile to return the courtesy.The line of sight just stayed on Mei Ruoxue for a moment, and then turned away directly.It is undeniable that Mei Ruoxue has a beautiful appearance, delicate and upright features, and a pair of big eyes with watery aura, which is quite a bit like a Jiangnan beauty.

But for Lin Yu at this time, even if the most beautiful woman in the world stands in front of him, he will only take a polite look, and will never take a second look...
