Chapter 23 Self-help
It seems that the place where they are located is an abandoned house. I don’t know whether this house is inside the city or outside the city. The yellow mud brick walls are not to mention common in the village, even the slums in the city are mostly made of yellow mud bricks.

After looking around the room, Chen Huiyin looked at Tang Yaoling. Just as she was about to speak, she heard footsteps. She quickly lay back with Tang Yaoling and closed her eyes.

A moment later, the sound of the key unlocking sounded, and then the door was pushed open. Chen Huiyin keenly sensed the sight on her body, and she even became cautious when breathing instantly.

After a while, the sight on the body disappeared, and then there was the sound of closing the door, and after a while, there was a voice from the yard, but the other party lowered his voice, and there was still a distance, Chen Huiyin raised his ears, but he couldn't hear clearly what did they say.

After a while, the voice suddenly became louder, and Chen Huiyin heard a somewhat familiar voice. Before she could think about it, she was attracted by the content.

"With this huge sum of money, I planned it for you. Without me, can you encounter such a good thing?"

"But we were the ones who kidnapped people, and we were the ones who came forward to blackmail the Chen family. We took a huge risk in this matter. You hide behind and don't take any risks. If you are greedy and want to monopolize [-]% of the blackmail money, there is no way. "

Then there was a silence outside, Chen Huiyin frowned, and looked at Tang Yaoling beside her, just as Tang Yaoling was also looking at her, but at this moment they couldn't communicate at all, and the two looked at the yard together again.

The voice that Chen Huiyin thought was familiar before rang again after a while: "Fifty to five points, it can't be lowered, don't forget, I rented the carriage to take you away with money, and you will eat, drink, and use it on the way." Yes, I also spent money to buy it, and the county government, I will also spend money to take care of it for you, and I paid no less than you."

"Fifty-fifty deal."

"Lang Jun, I can't disappear for too long, so I'll go back and eat the food I brought you while it's hot."

"Okay, Brother Fo, go slowly."

After a while, Chen Huiyin and Tang Yaoling heard that among the people outside, the person who seemed to be the boss ordered people to go out to buy wine, and they closed their eyes tacitly.

It's obvious that we can't communicate right now, so let's close our eyes and rest our minds. When the people outside have drunk enough, they will probably fall asleep. That's their chance.

The sound of drinking and boxing games outside lasted from the dawn until it was completely dark. Tang Yaoling has developed his internal strength now, so his hearing is better than Chen Huiyin. When he was sure that those people were drunk to death, he opened his eyes and approached Chen Huiyin. In Huiyin's ear, she lowered her voice and said, "Sister Qiao, those people are all drunk to death."

Chen Huiyin opened her eyes, struggled to sit up, and said in a low voice, "Let's untie the rope binding our hands and feet first, and then talk about other things."

After finishing speaking, she stood up slowly first, and then squatted down. The arms tied behind her slowly moved from the hips to the knees, and then sat down again. Through the calves and feet, finally let the bound arms return to the front of the body.

Looking at this scene, Tang Yaoling also had a look of shock and admiration. Not everyone can do such a thing. At least he tried it after waking up. I didn't wake up, or I would be ashamed.

Turning her hand to the front, Chen Huiyin lowered her voice and said to Tang Yaoling: "You carry it on your back, I will untie the rope for you first, and then you help me."

Tang Yaoling turned around in cooperation, and the rope on his wrist was untied after a while. As soon as his hand was free, Tang Yaoling turned around and helped Chen Huiyin untie the rope on his wrist, and then the two of them untied the rope on their ankles.

After completely regaining their freedom, the two got up and went to the window of the woodshed. The door was locked from the outside, not to mention that there was no tool to unlock it, even if there was a tool, she would not be able to unlock it.

Fortunately, the windows were not sealed from the outside, and they opened with a slight push, but the position of the window was a bit high, so Tang Yaoling felt no pressure to look out, and Chen Huiyin tried to stand on tiptoe to barely see outside.

The outside yard is small, bare, and there is nothing, but Chen Huiyin was able to confirm some things because of this, and motioned Tang Yaoling to close the window, and she said softly: "It is now certain that we should be in Huaiyuan County. The house is so dilapidated, we should It's a slum."

Being in the county town, Tang Yaoling wasn't worried, but it was obviously not a good time to escape at this moment. In the middle of the night, he couldn't leave the city even if he escaped. There was a curfew in the city, and there was no place to live. Although the weather was getting warmer, But it was still cold at night, so I had to stay here for a while.

Thinking of this, he said in a discussing tone: "Sister Qiao, let's wait here until dawn before leaving!" and explained the reason.

Chen Huiyin naturally had no objection, and then asked him: "They were talking in the yard before, did you hear the one in front clearly?"

Tang Yaoling nodded, and said with a calm face: "The man named Fu is the mastermind who planned this kidnapping. The person who kidnapped us sent a blackmail letter to Uncle Shi and Auntie before we woke up. Uncle and aunt gave money to redeem people, they didn’t mention the exact amount of money, but it should be a lot.”

Speaking of this, Tang Yaoling paused for a moment, and then continued: "The previous words were nonsensical, and I have no idea, but I always feel that I have heard that voice called Brother Fu before. I remembered the voice of the boy who followed Mr. Zheng when Mr. Zheng came to the door to ask for compensation on the day we arrived home.

And our family is not a wealthy family, Uncle Shi and Auntie don’t have much money in their hands. If they want to redeem our money, they have to sell the books in our house, and those who want our book collection happen to have a ready-made one. And he has the ability to offer a high price, but I don't know if Zheng Hong ordered the young man to do it. "

When Tang Yaoling mentioned it, Chen Huiyin also remembered it. As for whether Zheng Hong asked the boy to do it, it doesn't matter to her. What she is most worried about now is her parents, uncle and brother Ming. They are afraid that they will be in a hurry. .

"It doesn't matter if it's the servant Zheng Hong ordered. What I'm most worried about now is that my father and mother have sold the books to Zheng Hong in order to save us." In addition to worrying about her family, she also worried that the books at home would be stolen. Successfully went to the pit.

"Probably not yet. This group of people still want to get the ransom and live a happy life. They will definitely not show up. The letter should be stuffed directly under the door. After the boy named Fu left, didn't someone go out to buy wine, but when they came back At that time, it was not one person, but the footsteps of two people, and it was not far from darkness at that time.

There will be a curfew in the county town when it gets dark, and the city gates will be closed. Even if Uncle Shi and Auntie drive to the city in a bullock cart, they will not be able to enter the city in time, so they can only find a farmer outside the city to stay overnight, and then enter the city tomorrow morning. Leave here at dawn and go to the west gate to guard, and should be able to stop Uncle Shi and Auntie. "

 Sending today's first update, babies, see you at eight o'clock in the evening, okay.
