Looking for you in reincarnation

Chapter 541 Revisiting the old place.

Si He slept comfortably in the inn until dinner and night fell, then she set off again with Gao You and a group of guards.

When they left, the inn was bustling with activity, so they attracted considerable attention, as few people would travel at night.

However, before they could take a closer look, the group quickly disappeared into the night.

The night was pitch black, but the road was still clear when there was moonlight.

They traveled hurriedly along the way. Although the area was not very peaceful, they were traveling at night, so they did not encounter much trouble.

After three days of continuous travel, they arrived at the territory of Qingzhou. However, when passing through Gucheng, Si He chose to go into the city to rest.

It was early morning when we entered the city, the city gate had just opened, and the sun was rising.

Si He wore a veil hat and gloves, and led the horse slowly into the city. The city had changed. Almost all the houses along the streets had been rebuilt and looked unfamiliar.

But when she stepped into the city, Si He's heart became uneasy.

This city is not prosperous and has a small population. It is just an ordinary small town.

It was still early and there were few pedestrians on the street. There were only a few stalls selling buns or hot food on the roadside.

Si He was walking on the street, leading the horse, very slowly, not in a hurry as usual.

Gao You and a group of guards followed slowly behind, looking at this ordinary little town.

After walking for a while, Si He found a larger inn to stay in. After placing her horses and booking a room, she did not rest but continued walking around the city.

Originally, she wanted to walk alone, but Gao You and others insisted on following her, so she had to go along with them.

Si He followed the road in her memory, slowly walking through the streets and alleys, and finally came to a dilapidated house.

This house is so dilapidated that it can no longer be called a house. It can almost be said to be a ruin. The houses have basically collapsed, there are no doors, and the yard is overgrown with weeds.

Although the two houses next to it are also rather dilapidated and look as if no one lives there, they are much better than here. At least people can live there, while here is just a ruin.

Si He stood in front of the abandoned house, and her eyes suddenly became red. She pursed her lips and tried to hold back, but the tears still quickly gathered in her eyes, and then fell drop by drop, leaving a few stains on her clothes on her chest.

After a while, she opened the oil-paper umbrella in her hand to block the sunlight, and then took off her veil. Now, her vision became clearer.

Gao You, who was standing by, reached out to take the veil from her, and only then noticed that her eyes were red and her tears had soaked her clothes on her chest. She looked at the abandoned house with a complicated and sad look.

At this time, Si He held an umbrella and walked slowly forward. After crossing the door frame, there were weeds and bricks, and there was no way to go.

She tiptoed and leaped onto the stone table not far away.

There were some mud stains on the stone table, so some weeds and moss grew on it, and she had no place to step, so she could only step on the weeds.

Gao You and others were waiting outside the courtyard wall, watching her back. Although they couldn't see her face or hear her crying, she just stood there quietly, but they could feel her emotions at the moment.

At this moment, she was filled with sadness and sorrow that was hard to conceal, especially when she was standing alone in the ruins with an umbrella. She exuded a strong sense of loneliness, which was even more desolate than the ruins.

At this time, Si He held the umbrella handle tightly in her hand and tried her best to control her emotions so as not to cry out.

In fact, she didn't live in this house for a long time, but this was Ning Ji's home. The house was simple and clean in her memory. Now seeing it turned into ruins, she naturally felt sad.

This feeling is very similar to when I saw the former house occupied by someone in Beisha Country. Things have changed and people have changed. Times have passed.

Originally, she thought she had adapted to such changes, but when she returned to her hometown today and saw the ruins, the emotions in her heart suddenly surged violently and she could hardly suppress them.

After a long time, Si He raised one hand and wiped the tears from her face with her sleeve.

At this time, the sun had risen high and the sunlight was getting hotter and hotter. She took a deep breath and calmed herself down. After a while, she turned around and jumped out.

When she landed, no one could see the expression on her face because she held the umbrella very low. Gao You hurried forward, handed her the veil, then took the umbrella handle and helped her hold the umbrella.

Only then did Gao You notice that Si He's eyes were red, but her expression was calm. The next moment, she put on the veil, covering her face.

Si He said nothing. After putting on her veil hat, she took her umbrella again and walked out of the alley, followed by a group of people.

After they left, a few people sneaked out of the alley. They looked at the abandoned house curiously. It was just a ruin. They didn't understand what was so special about it? Why did they spend so much time looking at it?

They walked closer and took a look. They saw that the place was overgrown with weeds and there was no place to step, so they gave up their intention to go in and take a look.

After Si He walked out of the alley, she did not stay outside for long because the sun was too strong. Instead, she went straight back to the inn, washed up and went to bed. She had no appetite to eat.

Perhaps it was because the guest rooms in this inn were very quiet, or perhaps it was because the days of traveling made people tired, Si He fell asleep quickly.

But, perhaps because she had just been to the abandoned house, she had a rare dream, dreaming about the past.

The dream began with her first meeting Ning Ji, and then he took her home, helped her clean the house, cooked for her, and taught her martial arts...

The dream was like a replay of the past, very clear, with many details, his face, her smile, and the words they spoke were all reproduced one by one.

"Brother, if you don't take me in, I'll really have nowhere to go."

"You were quite brave to grill fish in this desolate forest by yourself earlier. It doesn't look like you have nowhere else to go."

"I was pretending to be calm, didn't you see that?"

"Brother, my name is Si He, what's your name?"

"Ning Ji."

"Brother Ning, where are you from?"

"Gucheng."

"Is Gucheng far from here? Brother Ning, are you here looking for medicine?"

"Ah."

……

"Let's go."

"Oh well."

"There's a vacant utility room in the backyard that needs to be cleaned up before you can live in it. You can live there for the time being."

"Brother Ning, can you take me out to buy some things? Don't worry, I have money."

"Brother Ning, have you found a wife?"

"I'm his distant cousin. My family suffered a disaster and I have no relatives left, so I came to live with my cousin Ning."

……

"Brother Ning, I practiced the moves you taught me all day yesterday. Can you take a look at how I'm doing and give me some pointers?"

……

"Brother Ning, this is the little snake I raised."

……

In dreams, life is actually very ordinary, just like the lives of ordinary people, plain and simple, yet exceptionally beautiful.

When Ning Ji was teaching her martial arts, Momo huddled in the corner and watched them. At that time, it was still very small, only as thick as her little finger, a thin and tiny black snake.

……

Si He couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth in her sleep.
