On the Difficulties of Escape in Ancient Times

Chapter 89 Guess

Xiao Lao Er didn't go far when he met Xiao Lao Er who was in a hurry.

Knowing from his second brother that his eldest daughter was back safely, Boss Xiao breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, let's go back first?"

Xiao Laoer was worried about his second son: "Brother, I want to go in and find some medicine."

Boss Xiao shook his head: "Forget it, I almost turned the house upside down, and I didn't even see the dregs of the medicine. Let's go back first. Come over here to rest for a while and get something to eat." Yes, by the way, let’s find out where there is a medical clinic.”

Xiao Laoer couldn't think of a better way and could only listen to his elder brother.

However, thinking that Xiao Erlang was seriously injured and unable to walk, thinking that it would be familiar again and again, he returned to that house, and happened to meet a man coming out to hold straw.

The man watched one leave and two come back. He was so frightened that he let go of his hands and the straw in his arms fell to the ground.

Maybe it was because Boss Xiao had given him two coins before, so the man didn't sit down on the ground in fear. Instead, he trembled and asked, "Sir, what did you miss?"

Boss Xiao held up a torch and looked around: "Come and borrow a door panel!"

Men are going crazy in their hearts: You treat me like a pickle of leeks, are you going to end it one after another?

But he was timid and pointed at the door of the woodshed: "Then remove that door panel!"

"Thank you very much!" Xiao Laoer stepped forward very cooperatively, removed the door panel, completely ignored the closed door, carried it on his shoulders and climbed over the wall.

The man swore in his heart: When he comes back, he will build the wall higher and never allow thieves to take advantage of him again.

This time, he watched the torch get smaller and smaller before carrying the straw into the house.

After the Xiao brothers went back, they saw Wu Biaotou and the others also coming back. Some of them were still wearing laurels, and the other four were seriously injured. They were all lying in a row with Erlang. At first glance, it looked like five people were lying on a bed. Received lunch box.

Now, of course, we need to light a fire to keep warm first, then let the men go out, and let the women change out of their wet clothes first.

Xiao Dalang also specifically whispered to Mrs. Liu and her daughters to wear two more pieces.

It's better to be hot and sweat than to be frozen like a dog.

Originally, Boss Xiao was planning to let his old man and his parents wear dry clothes. After hearing what Liu said, he put on the clothes he had prepared for Jiang Yu.

Regardless of whether he can become Jiang Yu's Taishan, just because he saved his little life, Boss Xiao felt that he no longer had to pretend to be a grandson in front of Jiang Yu.

Fortunately, it was only August and only two pieces of clothing were suitable, so the men took off their clothes and gathered around the fire to keep warm and dry their clothes.

During this period, Captain Song also told them his suspicions: "I suspect they are not water bandits. Those people are good at martial arts and have more people than us, but they did not kill them. In the end, they only robbed the ship and the goods. "

This was of course a euphemistic way of saying it. Although those people were asking for a beating, their martial arts skills were better than theirs, so they were completely suppressed and beaten.

They couldn't escape even if they wanted to, and finally they got tired of beating them, so they threw them into the river and flew away.

It's really not very harmful, but very insulting.

Now that Captain Song was thinking about being thrown into the water like a piece of merchandise, he still couldn't help but gnashed his teeth: "They are just a bunch of rats hanging around their waists - pretending to be hunters."

Jiang Yu looked at him thoughtfully: "Did Chief Song say that they might be soldiers?"

The saying "soldiers and bandits" has been around since ancient times.

"Isn't it possible?" Xiao Dalang was the first to retort: ​​"My second brother was seriously injured, and someone also attacked my third sister."

Guard Song also lifted up his inner clothes, and his front and back were covered in green and purple: "I mean they didn't kill him."

"The other four brothers who didn't come here also have broken arms and legs, and can't walk." After all, you are a fool. You think too well of the soldiers. If they don't kill you, it doesn't mean they won't beat you half to death. ah.

Hou Er also snorted: "No wonder they didn't fight to the death."

Although he was good at martial arts, he was a bit poor at swimming. He was not beaten to death by them at that time, so they probably regarded him as a practitioner.

Xiao Xiao agreed very much with what Head Guard Song said.

He hurt someone in the water, but when he pushed Lin Xuan away, he made a sound. The other person knew that he was a woman, so even if he was hurt by him, he didn't attack too harshly.

There is also Erlang, who doesn't know martial arts, and can bring Lin Xuan back by swimming. If they are not lucky, they are afraid that the other party will easily hurt Erlang. Knowing that Erlang doesn't know martial arts, they simply give up.

No wonder, after they came over, no one came after them.

Xiao Xiao felt like he was holding back a ball of fire: "So, even if we don't go into the water, our lives won't be in danger, right?"

By co-authoring it, you are being smart and asking for trouble, right?

Jiang Yu shook his head: "That's wrong. The situation was critical at that time. How could you be lucky?"

"Yes!" Boss Xiao also agreed: "Some of the soldiers were recruited by bandits, and they are not good people."

"And we also hurt them, how can we expect them to spare us easily?"

When Xiao Xiao thought about it, he began to feel uneasy. He didn't know if the other party had been shot to death by his three sisters, otherwise he was afraid that they would settle the score later.

She recalled carefully that they picked up their bows and shot arrows in the direction of the torch.

It's because they can't see clearly where they are, and they think the other party is holding a torch, so aim at the torch and shoot the arrow. It's best if you can hit the water bandit. Even if you don't hit the target, it can make the water bandit panic.

And when he shot the first arrow, although the other party screamed, they also knew that there were bows and arrows on their boat, and they all became vigilant.

Moreover, there was only an angry yell, and the other party put out all the torches. It was dark for a moment, and their arrows could not hit anyone.

Once again, I'm glad that I was fooling around at that time. I guess the other party didn't expect that it would be the three girls who were shooting arrows.

They must have targeted Song Biaotou and the others before they were cruel to them.

What a scapegoat. Fortunately, they took the blame for their sisters.

Thinking of this, Xiao Xiao fell silent for an instant, like a gourd with its mouth cut off, and could no longer speak.

"Huh?" Boss Xiao was confused again: "There are many of us, but what about the eight boatmen?"

"Even if they were ambushed by the bandits at the beginning, they are good at water, so they should be able to escape, right?"

Bouncer Song also said with a heavy head: "Either they are in a group, or they were all beaten up by the 'bandits' and taken away."

Jiang Yu thought more than they did. Ning Shibo had already sent medicinal materials to King Jin'an. He could also take the opportunity to write to Ning Shibo and tell him about his encounter with the water bandits.

If Ning Shibo had already struck up a conversation with the people around King Jin'an, he could let his superiors know what he was going through.

He couldn't let nearly eight thousand taels of silver and medicinal materials go down the drain.

Even if the medicinal materials cannot be found, they still have to put their name on it and gain a good reputation.
