I don’t know how long I’ve been walking, the moon in the sky has gradually set, but the situation seems to be getting more and more wrong.

It stands to reason that as you go towards the city center, there should be more and more houses and buildings. Why does Linluo feel that it is becoming more and more desolate as we go further?

Really unable to walk, Lin Luo carefully chose a bush of lush weeds far away from the roadside. She sat in the weeds, pulled out the shriveled steamed bun from her pants pocket, and began to nibble on the steamed bun to replenish her strength.

It was starting to get dark, and cars would occasionally drive by on the road.

Lin Luo was already sure that she had indeed gone in the wrong direction. During the time she was eating steamed buns, she had seen several small trucks carrying fruits and vegetables heading in the direction she came from. These should be farmers in the nearby suburbs. They were rushing to sell vegetables at the morning market in the city.

Lin Luo was a little anxious: What should I do? It's too late to go back now. If you delay any longer, you might run into someone from the Sun family.

Looking at another small truck selling vegetables heading into the city, Lin Luo began to worry. There seemed to be a vegetable planting base in front of it. The uncle who purchased the canteen mentioned that the vegetables eaten in the orphanage were vegetables not far away. I bought it from the planting base, it’s close, the price is affordable, and it only takes half an hour to drive.

Lin Luo has been walking for almost a night, and he is probably almost at the vegetable base.

Sure enough, before walking far, Lin Luo saw many small trucks parked on the field ridges waiting to be loaded. The vegetable farmers were busy instructing the workers to load the trucks, while the truck drivers were smoking and chatting.

No one noticed that a small figure had climbed hard into a truck compartment filled with radishes.

Lin Luo climbed onto the truck and pulled the radishes to one side for a long time before she made a small space for herself. She then carefully placed rows of radishes facing the rear of the truck, just enough to cover herself.

After doing all this, Lin Luo felt a little tired. She guessed that the car was waiting in line to leave. It would take a while to reach the city of B. She could take a rest first and regain her energy before doing the next thing. One step plan.

Walking all night in a state of mental stress is very hard for an adult, not to mention that Lin Luo was only 6 years old at this time. Surrounded by radishes, Lin Luo felt a certain sense of security. The spirit relaxes a little and people fall into sleep...

Lin Luo woke up to the scream of a boy. She opened her eyes and found that the mountain of carrots piled in front of her had been pushed down, and the face of a chubby boy appeared in front of her.

When the boy saw that she was awake, he took a step back in fright, turned around and crawled under the car, still calling "Mom".

Lin Luo slept very well. She was still a little confused when she woke up. She poked her head out of the car and found that it was already dawn. She must have arrived in City B. She had to get off the car quickly. If the driver came to find her, she would tell her that she It was Tanwan who ran into the car.

Before Lin Luo climbed out of the car, a tall and thin man stood in front of her.

Truck driver Chen Maocai was very angry. He specifically took the transport order from City B to Nancheng just so he could go home for a visit.

He pulled a cart of radishes from City B yesterday morning and drove all day and night. He just arrived in Nancheng this morning. He didn't have time to deliver the radishes, so he hurried home. Before he had a hot meal, he heard When the unlucky son told his mother that he had pulled a girl in the car, the old lady gave him a slap in the face and asked him to explain what happened.

He didn't know what was going on. There were only carrots in the car.

He didn't believe it, so he ran out to see it again. This sight shocked him. There was really someone, just a thin and weak little girl. Is this the "female" that his unlucky son called him? There seems to be nothing wrong with it.

Chen Maocai was confused for a moment. What was going on?

Chen Maocai asked loudly and angrily, "Who are you? Why are you in my car?"

Lin Luo hurriedly lowered his head and admitted his mistake, "I'm sorry, I... I was curious about what was in your car, so I climbed up to take a look."

Seeing that the little girl had a good attitude in admitting her mistake, Chen Maocai softened his tone, but his attitude was still not good and said, "What are you looking at? Come down here quickly!"

Lin Luo obeyed and quickly started to climb out of the car. She was small and it was very difficult to climb up the car. Chen Maocai couldn't see it. He grabbed Lin Luo's collar with one hand, lifted her out and put her on the ground.

Lin Luo looked around, trying to identify where this was in City B, but the surrounding scenery had obvious southern characteristics, which caught Lin Luo off guard. The two-story house in front of him had black tiles and white walls, and banyan trees were planted in the yard. , it seems that the surrounding houses are of this style, as if they are in a small town in the south...

At this time, the boy who had just watched Lin Luo scream hurriedly walked out of the house, holding a middle-aged woman in his hand. As he walked, the boy said, "Mom, look, I'm not wrong, right?" There is a woman.”

The middle-aged woman came closer and when she saw Lin Luo, her expression was a little speechless. She seemed to have thought of something, and glared at Chen Maocai fiercely, "Is this the child you had with a woman outside?"

When Chen Maocai heard this, he was like a thunderbolt. He quickly denied it: "Honey, don't listen to this bastard's nonsense. It's nothing. This little girl is just curious. She climbed into my car to take a look. I don't know anything about her." It’s time to climb in.”

Lin Luo saw that the misunderstanding was getting bigger and he quickly explained: "Auntie and uncle, I'm sorry, I climbed into your car without saying hello. I don't know this uncle."

Seeing that the middle-aged woman had calmed down a little, Lin Luo quickly said, "I'm going home," and quickly left the house.

Chen Maocai wanted to stop Lin Luo and ask for details, but his wife held him tightly. Even when Lin Luo walked away, he could still hear Chen Maocai's begging for mercy.

"My conscience, my wife, I am devoted to you wholeheartedly. I will not even look at other women..."

……

Now is the busy time for work and school in the early morning. Lin Luo walked through a small alley and walked to a street with a lot of people. There were adults and children. Lin Luo quickly blended in and walked along the direction of the crowd. Yes, we arrived at the gate of the only primary school in this town.

There were more children and more parents here, so she, a lone child, didn't stand out at all. She even used money to buy two hot steamed buns from the breakfast shop next to the elementary school.

Lin Luo was sitting in the breakfast bar, eating steamed buns and listening to the conversations of the people next to her. She finally gradually understood her current situation.

She left the orphanage on Saturday night, and it was now school time on Monday morning. She actually slept all day and all night, and the truck she climbed into with great effort was not going to market B to sell vegetables. She actually transported vegetables from City B to Nancheng for sale. This was something she never expected.

And where she is now is an ancient town under the jurisdiction of Nancheng.

Lin Luo was quite satisfied with this temporary place to stay. It was thousands of kilometers away from City B. It would take a day and a night to drive. The Sun family would never have imagined that she would be here.

This ancient town is said to have a history of thousands of years. It is surrounded by mountains and a clear river runs through the middle of the town, dividing the town into two districts: the east and west. She is now in the lively west district, where most of the residents of the town live. Here it is.

Many houses in the town are old buildings with black tiles and white walls, which are very characteristic of Jiangnan water towns and retain their original flavor.

The oldest house in the town is the one in the East District. There is only one family living in the East District. There is a very grand "antique" mansion with five entrances and an east-west courtyard and garden. It is said that it has been there for hundreds of years. history.

There is an ancient temple at the foot of the mountain not far from the mansion. It opened recently and an old monk is responsible for cleaning and management. The old monk can also read fortunes and tell fortunes. It is said to be very effective. Many women in the town often go to the temple to burn incense and pray for blessings.

No, the aunties who had just sent their children to school were gathering together to discuss going to burn incense tomorrow.

"Tomorrow happens to be the fifteenth day. It's a good day to offer incense. That temple is amazing."

"Yes, I went to pray for my old man to get better last month, and he was really able to get out of bed a few days ago."

"Is it really that smart?"

"Yes, yes, you will know soon after you try it? Haven't you always wanted to have a son..."

"Hey, Aunt Luo, please stop talking."

……

"But is there something wrong? I remember that the temple was closed before. Why did it suddenly open recently?"

"I also find it strange. I have never seen that old monk before."

"Could it be that the Wang family is back? That temple belongs to their family."

"Really? I haven't seen their family in many years."

"It's okay. You can rest assured about the Wang family's temple. Let's go together tomorrow."

……

The aunties went home one after another. After Lin Luo finished eating the steamed buns, he was still sitting in the breakfast shop, thinking about where to go next. When he looked up, he found that the proprietress of the breakfast shop was looking at her with suspicious eyes. He didn't dare to stay any longer and paid. Get the money and leave immediately.

But where to go next? She really has no clue.
