If the Water Margin

Chapter 62 Journey to the East

39 to 61 is a small attempt I made. I'm glad that SVEN children's shoes have raised this point in the book review. The name of the chapter is the name of the big Akana card in the Tarot card, in order. If you are interested, you can learn about the meaning and spirit of each card, and you may get a better reading experience.

I want to write a different novel, thank you for your support.

Pan Jinlian

It's getting cold, and the vast white snow fell from the sky at night, making Pan Jinlian feel extremely lonely.

Pan Jinlian even remembered in a trance that when she was a child, her father would stay at home on a snowy night without gambling. At that time, her father would hold her and say some warm words, making the ice and snow seem to melt. At that time, Pan Jinlian liked the snowy night, which warmed her.

She has never been as lonely as today. Pan Jinlian looked at it for a while and closed the window.

Although there is still a lot of silver on

, there is no way to go on like this. Would it be better if I hadn't listened to the nun at that time? Time seems to have solidified, and Pan Jinlian's thoughts have drifted to the past.

The night when the nun appeared twice.

"I am willing to give my blood again and ask the master to help my disciples divine their future again." Pan Jinlian suddenly knelt down and looked at the nun devoutly.

"Is it really so good to know the future? The last time you knew about the future, you were furious and angry. The girl who did divination with you was pushed into the well that night. You are so cruel." The nun's eyes were like a torch, staring at Pan Jinlian.

Pan Jinlian felt her legs trembling, but her unyielding personality made her raise her head and meet the nun's eyes: "Teacher said that she could not survive that day. I killed her in the verdict of fate. Pan Jinlian's eyes widened and stared at the nun. When she felt that she couldn't hold on and wanted to blink, the nun smiled.

"Generally speaking, people who have been divined by me can't avoid it when they see me again. In the poor game world, what I like most is the powerless struggle of mortals. Do you know what kind of feeling is powerless? The nun looked at Pan Jinlian with a smile.

"Disciples don't know." Pan Jinlian did not avoid the nun's eyes, but looked at it with wide eyes.

"Very good, you are fine. The real powerlessness is that you know the ending and that the ending cannot be changed, but you make endless efforts in fantasy. What's your name?" The nun suddenly asked.

"My disciple's name is Pan Jinlian."

"Well, Pan Jinlian. I will tell you the real ending of your life this time. You must also know that the real ending is often very cruel. Do you really have the courage to bear it?

"Yes. Even if the teacher told me that I couldn't live until dawn, I wanted to know in advance. Pan Jinlian's tone was determined, and the unyielding level of her personality came up.

"That's good." The nun said, took out the dagger that impressed Pan Jinlian from her arms, took Pan Jinlian's hand, gently nodded, and suddenly a blood bead appeared on her finger. The nun didn't stop, reached out and grabbed the bloody finger, put it into her mouth and sucked it.

Pan Jinlian felt that the time had become very long at this moment. She felt the nun sucking slowly and hard, as if she wanted to suck all her blood from the small hole pierced by the dagger. But Pan Jinlian did not move. She knew that she had embarked on a road that could not be turned back since she let the nun into the door when she was a girl.

As if after a hundred years, the nun let go of her hand and signaled Pan Jinlian that she could take her hand back. Then he said, "It's still the same, little girl, three questions."

These three questions must be greeted, and Pan Jinlian thought about them repeatedly.

"What should I do now to be the best for myself?" This is Pan Jinlian's consideration. She doesn't ask about specific events, but just asks what is the best. The nun knows fate and will definitely give the best answer, which should be the best question.

"Never has ever asked such a question. It seems that the person who asked the second question is really much more shrewd. It seems that I should consider not giving people a second chance to divination in the future. The nun smiled and said, "But since you asked, I can answer. It's the best choice for you to leave Yanggu in two days, leave the dock, and then go all the way east. The nun's words stopped abruptly, and then looked at Pan Jinlian as if mocking.

Pan Jinlian sighed in her heart. Sure enough, the nun was still the same and asked how much. Go east, why go east? Is Wu Song's silver hidden in the east, but specifically in the east? How should I find it as a woman? No, although I think this question is shrewd, the nun's answer sounds ambiguous and useless to herself.

"Why?" Pan Jinlian only asked these three words. Since the nuns answer as much as they ask, they have to find a way to make the question as large as possible. If the nuns want to answer this question completely, they must explain it completely and see what you say this time. Pan Jinlian finished speaking and stared at the nun's face.

The nun was stunned for a moment: "This second question is indeed smarter than the first one. It seems that poor Nepal can't say more this time." The nun paused, as if adjusting her posture: "Your little brother-in-law Wu Song is getting married soon, and the woman he wants to marry has a deep hatred with you. If you stay in Yanggu, you will be killed by her. Therefore, only by leaving Yanggu can you survive, and there will be other opportunities waiting for you to go to the east.

Do you have a deep hatred with me? Kill me? Pan Jinlian was very puzzled for a moment. There are indeed many people who have offended themselves for so many years, but the proportion of women is not high, and it is a deadly hatred. Is this sea sand?

No, the sea sand is dead. And I did this very carefully, and no one else would know. I know Haisha's family affairs. She is lonely. Even if her family knows that she died, she will not want revenge. What the hell is going on? Pan Jinlian looked at the nun. She wanted to find out the reason, but she was reluctant to ask this last question.

There is only one opportunity left for divination, which should not be wasted on these trivial issues. But if you don't know who this person is, how can you feel at ease? This will make me doubt anyone and never be safe again. Pan Jinlian suffered fiercely.

"It seems that you want to know who is going to kill you." The nun suddenly said, "Well, I'll tell you. You don't have to open your mouth to ask, so it can't be counted as a question. Yes, it's the girl you think of. The last time Penny saw you, she divined with you and then was killed by you. She got a mysterious power to avenge you from the world of the dead with the fire of hatred.

The nun still looked at Pan Jinlian with a smile, but Pan Jinlian sweated coldly. The dead man came back to revenge. If this were true, how terrible it would be.

"Penny just promised you that this time it will calculate your final outcome, so the third question has already been on the line." The nun said to herself without waiting for Pan Jinlian's reaction.

"Then ask the teacher to make it clear." What a good word for the ending. Pan Jinlian has no ability to resist this **.

The nun closed her eyes and said words. For a moment, the surface of her body was covered with a thin layer of fog. The fog slowly rotated. Pan Jinlian was fascinated, but the rhythm of the nun's incantation suddenly accelerated, and even the speed of the fog was accelerating. Finally, it seemed that the fog could not withstand such a fast rhythm. Unexpectedly, it was broken in an instant like a porcelain jar, and the nun sat there decadently, with a drop of blood flowing from the corners of her mouth.

"Master, what's wrong with you?" Pan Jinlian exclaimed that she wanted to help the nun.

"It's okay." The nun stretched out her hand and motioned Pan Jinlian not to go there. Then he took out a handkerchief from his arms and wiped the blood stains from the corners of his mouth. The drop of blood flowing from the corners of my mouth is the blood of your fingers just now. I was infinitely close to your future just now, but I can't see it clearly. Your future seems to be changed by a great man with great magical powers, which has not yet come, so I can't figure it out. I didn't answer three questions. I can't absorb this drop of blood. I'll give it back to you.

With that, the nun shook the handkerchief in her hand, and a little blood star suddenly appeared on the handkerchief. The blood star slowly flew like Pan Jinlian and disappeared into Pan Jinlian's body.

"But little girl, cough, your blood is still mine. We will meet again in the future. At that time, you will return this blood to me and I will help you answer this final question. Puni also drank today and said something. It's time to go. After saying that, the nun ignored Pan Jinlian and walked out of the door, as if she was very weak.

After that, until dawn, Pan Jinlian had been thinking about whether to follow the nun's advice and leave Yanggu. This matter definitely can't be told to others. Wu Da and Wu Song know it and will definitely not let them go. Moreover, the reason why someone comes to seek revenge is not seen.

can only sneak away. But why did the nun say that she would only leave within two days? Even if Wu Song's bride appeared, two days would be far from enough to start the revenge plan. Suddenly, Pan Jinlian understood the meaning of two days. Two days are the time when Wu Da will still be in a coma. Two days later, Wu University will wake up. At that time, even if she wants to leave, she can't leave.

Leave Yanggu. Just a moment, Pan Jinlian made up her mind. Whether the vengeful person exists or not, she will leave Yanggu. This is an opportunity to get rid of Wu Da. If he doesn't leave this time, the general will always be his husband and will always be a dwarf's wife. There will be no other ending in his life. This kind of life makes Pan Jinlian irritable and uneasy. And Pan Jinlian can think that as the Wu brothers have more and more income, she will have less and less status, and Wu Da will bully herself more and more. The nun is right. Only by leaving Yanggu can she start a new life.

Even if I die, I will die elsewhere, in a world without martial arts.

So, for the rest of the time, Pan Jinlian was packing up the soft and carrying the jewelry, valuable things and the moving water on the account. Pan Jinlian tried not to overdo it. Once the degree of plunder exceeds the tolerance of the Wu brothers, they will definitely come to pursue it. Even if they leave from the dock, if the Wu brothers really try their best to find themselves, they will not have no chance to find them at all.

At dawn before the arrival of critical time, Pan Jinlian took a boat from the dock with a burden on her back.

The moment the ship left the dock, Pan Jinlian looked back at Yanggu. She suddenly had a feeling that she might not come back in her life. In this way, let Yanggu County be abandoned forever together with its unhappy marriage.

At noon, Pan Jinlian got off the boat, found a place, turned some valuable items into silver money, and then turned to the land and came all the way east. The scenery along the way made Pan Jinlian, who had never travel alone, a little intoxicated. She felt how stupid she was in the past. She just wanted to stay in a small county to be a rich lady and didn't know the vastness of the world. Gradually, I forgot that I was running away. I put down my steps and began to swim in the mountains and rivers. I was free to walk and stop. I still rested for half a month around the Mid-Autumn Festival.

It was not until after the festival that Pan Jinlian began to find it difficult. It has entered the boundary of Shandong. According to the words of the nun, he will go all the way to the east and walk to the sea one day. What should he do then? Pan Jinlian, who realized this problem, felt panicked. She traveled every day, but she didn't dare to walk too much. She was afraid that the sea would suddenly appear in front of her, so she would try to drag the day back. Similarly, she didn't dare to stop. The nun did nothing to stop by herself, and it was also troublesome if she couldn't meet the opportunity. When the wind blew, Pan Jinlian's heart was already suffering.

The flame on the candle flashed, and the shadow of the lamp shook, which suddenly pulled Pan Jinlian back from her memory, and the winter cold came to her face again. It turned out that the wind blew open the window that had not been closed just now and shook the light by the way. On such a snowy day, it seems that there is no way tomorrow, and I need to stay in this inn for a few more days. Pan Jinlian is not afraid of the delay of the journey by the weather. As a destinationless traveler, she doesn't care about the itinerary. What's more, she wishful thinking that the nun has already estimated these obstacles. If she is forced to go on the road, she will miss the opportunity.

At this moment, there was a noise downstairs. Pan Jinlian went to the window and looked out. There was no one outside the window, and everyone was holding a horse in his hand. The cold weather, the heat of animals and people and the snowflakes make everything not so clear. These people seem to come to the hotel, but Pan Jinlian knows that there are not so many rooms in the store. In the afternoon, when I came to stay, the guest rooms were 80% full. After nightfall, it began to snow, and the number of people staying in. Now it's good to have one or two rooms. These 20 people must be unfriendly.

These more than 20 people are riding horses, and they don't think they are easy to play. Now there may be a dispute. Pan Jinlian suddenly came to her spirits, and the feeling of watching others fight and gloat again. This is all because I left Wuhan University, and it is a pleasure to watch others fight.

Pan Jinlian made up her mind and quickly put on her clothes. She went all the way to hide her ears and eyes, all dressed as men and women. In order to prevent the Wu brothers from following, she often changed her appearance. When she stayed in the store, she was dressed as a scholar with a beard. In order to ensure consistency, Pan Jinlian pasted her beard in front of the mirror for a long time, and then put her beard on the same as when she lived in the store, and then wore a large cotton hat. This strange dress covered her head with green silk and pink face. At first glance, no one would think that this sloppy bearded scholar was actually a young girl. .

By the time Pan Jinlian opened the door and walked down the stairs, the two sides had already argued.

Ha, as expected, it seems to be lively. So Pan Jinlian went to a corner, where the sight was good and relatively safe. At this time, she looked up and seriously looked at the two sides of the dispute.

"Shopkeeper, you said that there is heavy snow and there is no road. Moreover, you know that there is no inn nearby. Even if there is, it will be found by our brother, it will be full. It's convenient for you. In this way, we all sleep in the lobby, don't need bedding, just lie on the ground. Just ask the buddy to feed our horses. We have a total of 22 people, and the horses are counted separately. I'll give you 30 people's money. Do you think it's okay? A bearded man said that he was sure of the shopkeeper, and most of the people behind him were already angry and stared at each other.

"How many times have I told you, no. There are still two rooms left, but they are booked by distinguished guests, and it is impossible to give them to you. As for you saying that you sleep in the lobby, that's even worse. More than 20 of you men went to sleep in the lobby. How can you let other guests rest? We still can't do this business. Besides, we don't feed your horse for any money. Winter is coming, and the forage is getting more and more difficult to deal with. We still have to keep the forage at the critical time. Don't think about this. There is nothing to play at all. The innkeeper replied while shaking his head.

However, Pan Jinlian found that when the shopkeeper said the word "precious guest", the group of big men made eye contact with each other, and then calmed down as if they had reached some kind of tacit understanding, and the feeling of anger suddenly faded. A bad feeling hits my mind.

"You just go quickly. If the shopkeeper said he would not stay, he would definitely not stay. Hurry up and find a broken temple or something to endure all night. If you slow down, I'm afraid there will be no such a position. The clerk was helping, and at the same time, he kept pointing outside to send everyone away quickly.

The beard seemed to be thinking about something, and then turned his head and said a few words to the people behind him. Well, it's time for our brothers to be unlucky. Excuse me, everyone." He punched the guests in the lobby, and then led the crowd out of the door of the inn. The sound of horses' hoofs also faded away.

This matter is never over, and Pan Jinlian knows very well. But it makes no sense to continue to wait downstairs. At this time, I want to leave the inn to avoid danger, and I can't find anything good in the snowy night. It's better to see what will happen. Thinking of this, Pan Jinlian got up and went back to her room.

After entering the room, she did not change her clothes or even take off her fake beard. Pan Jinlian stood in front of the window and looked down carefully. After looking at it for a while, I really found that after the tree not far away, a figure would poke his head out after a while, as if he was monitoring something.
