Chapter 156 Angel Investment
Chapter 156 Angel Investment
The hustle and bustle of the day is over, and night is slowly falling.
As usual, he huddled in the corner where he could get some shelter.
The two small figures hugged each other tightly.
In the darkness, the light blue pupils were clearly visible.
They were not asleep yet and were talking quietly.
Chen An put his hand into the baggage Tiantian Xiaohuan gave him and fumbled around.
He quietly crushed a small piece of dry food and hid it in the palm of his hand.
Then he put his hand to the girl's mouth.
Mu Sanniang blinked and looked at him confused.
The boy smiled, his voice small.
"Open your mouth."
he whispered.
Mu Sanniang did as she was told and opened her mouth slightly.
Immediately afterwards, there was a familiar taste in his mouth.
Perhaps it had been a long time since she had eaten normal food. Mu Sanniang couldn't describe it. She only knew that it tasted great.
She grabbed the boy's hand that was trying to take back, stretched out her tongue and licked his hand carefully.
Chen An knew that she didn't want to waste that little bit, but she couldn't help but said, "Sister, it's itchy."
But Mu Sanniang was surprisingly strong and held his wrist tightly, unable to move.
"Bear it."
She replied without looking up.
Chen An had nothing to do with her, and he didn't have the ability to resist, so he had no choice but to let others take advantage of her.
He thought for a moment, stretched out his other hand, and continued to fumble in the bag to see if there was anything else.
Suddenly, Chen An's groping hand paused and let out a light sigh.
Mu Sanniang raised her head and looked at him, "What's wrong?"
Chen An did not answer in a hurry, but took out the things.
It was a little note.
Chen An raised it above his head, and through the dim moonlight, he could barely make out the writing on it.
After he read the whole sentence clearly, he looked stunned, and then handed it to the girl next to him.
But Mu Sanniang just shook her head and said, "I can't read."
So Chen An took it back and read it to her in a low voice.
"To the west of Liucheng, there is a small town three hundred miles away called Yunji Town. The town is located at the foot of Nanshan Mountain. Every three years, an immortal will be born in the mountain. He goes to the town to select those with excellent talents under the age of thirteen and brings them back to the clan. Preaching and teaching from door to door.”
"We have plenty of time to set off now."
The writing on the note ends here.
But at the end, there is a name left.
Chen An paused and read out.
"Liucheng Wang Yan."
It seems that this note has nothing to do with Xiao Huan, but is written by the Miss Wang family who has never been seen in the carriage.
Mu Sanniang's eyes moved. Her eyelashes were very long, and the two of them were so close that Chen An could clearly see the slight trembling of her eyelashes.
She was keenly aware of the two most important words and subconsciously repeated them.
"Immortal...?"
In fact, for the people of Dazhou, the word immortal is not unfamiliar.
Because immortals are not some distant legend, they actually exist and appear in real life.
From the emperor's senior officials to children as young as three years old, most of them have heard stories related to immortals told by their elders in the family.
Whenever they talk about this, the elders always show expressions of admiration, admiration, even fear, etc.
Immortals have their own realm, they are aloof and will not interfere lightly in the world.
But at the level of a country's destiny, it cannot escape the manipulation of their invisible hands.
In the darkness, Mu Sanniang squeezed her palms.
She suddenly asked: "Why is she telling us this?"
The question she asked was exactly what Chen An was thinking about at this time.
He frowned and guessed: "Maybe it's a matter of casting a wide net? Making waves of angel investment?"
Mu Sanniang was stunned and couldn't understand what he was talking about.
<divclass="contentadv">"What do you mean?"
Chen An scratched his head, organized his words, and explained: "That is, you can understand that she thinks that the two of us have potential, and then she also likes me, so she gives some benefits and reveals some information. "
"After all, if we become successful in the future, wouldn't this friendship that provides help in times of need become particularly precious?"
Mu Sanniang looked at him, then turned away without saying a word.
Chen An was startled and pulled her little head back.
"What's wrong?"
Mu Sanniang lowered her head and whispered: "Brother, I hate it."
"Hey, wait, why do I hate it?"
Chen An innocently spread his hands, unable to understand.
Mu Sanniang glanced at him, her tone could not be heard as reproachful, but just a little aggrieved.
"You know that Sanniang can't read, but you still say so many words that Sanniang doesn't understand."
Chen An was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't laugh or cry, thinking that you were having trouble over this.
He held the girl's face and looked at her quietly.
In fact, Mu Sanniang's facial features are very beautiful and have a very coordinated beauty.
The eyebrows are picturesque, but there is still a bit of childishness.
Chen Anxin thought that if she were willing to smile, she would look great.
It's just that Mu Sanniang always has an expressionless and cold look, and her short hair has not been taken care of for a long time, and half of her face is covered by bangs.
Naturally, it is subconsciously ignored.
The girl seemed a little uncomfortable being looked at by him, so she opened his hand and muttered something.
"what……"
Chen An chuckled, "Okay, sister, don't be angry. I'll tell you again."
Mu Sanniang snorted softly, "I probably understand, you don't need to say it again."
Her thin and long eyelashes trembled, and she said seriously: "I will remember her kindness."
After she finished speaking, she remembered that she was her sister, so she patted Chen An on the shoulder and reminded her, "You too."
Chen An didn't pay attention to her elder posture and just hummed softly.
He then raised his head and looked at the dark night sky, feeling a little confused.
Is all of this really just a coincidence?
Or are they just walking on a pre-conceived path...
The so-called conjecture is just fate?
He didn't know, and he didn't know the answer.
And when he looked into it carefully, it seemed that it had no meaning to him at all.
Mu Sanniang's faint voice came from beside her.
"Then let's set off early tomorrow morning."
Chen An held her hand, which felt cold to the touch.
"You want to try it?"
"Well, try it."
Mu Sanniang did not hesitate.
The corner slowly became quiet, leaving only the weak breathing of the two children.
Chen An thought for no reason that the wind and snow tonight seemed to have subsided better than yesterday, and even the eerie whimpering sounds were much quieter.
He closed his eyes and breathed slowly.
Fine snow fell, mixed with the cold moonlight, covering the ground with a layer of silver frost.
I don't know how long it took, until I was sure that they had all fallen asleep, a figure who had always been hidden in the dark slowly opened his eyes.
Those narrow eyes flashed with malice and greed.
Men are really patient.
It's obvious that the other person is just a little kid with no hair at all.
But for the sake of stability, he still suppressed his inner desire and has been holding back until now.
Finally, seeing that the time was right, the skinny figure started to move.
His footsteps made an extremely small sound in the snow.
