The Pearl of the Lady

Chapter 83

The boss thought for a while that money was important, and so was life, and said, "Put them in the apse, and don't stay with us."

"Go and see if there is a door at the back?" He told the fourth child.

The fourth child nodded, and came back later to report, "There is no door behind, it is blocked."

He did not say that the apse had a window that could be opened.

The snowflakes were carried by the north wind and swirled down. The third child came back trembling, shook the snow on his body, and sneezed, "Boss, go... I can't go, the snow is too heavy, and the wind blows my eyes when I go out." Can't open it."

As he spoke, he moved to the side of the fire, baking his hands and feet that were frozen stiff. The boss sat on the blanket impatiently, and the girl next to him kneaded and tapped his legs impatiently. Pushed away, stood up and took two steps back and forth.

He was always a little uneasy, but he was the leader of this group of people, so he couldn't tell them about this uneasiness, otherwise it would damage the morale of the team.

"Brother, why don't we rest here for one night before leaving? How many times have we walked this road, and no one will come." The fifth child took out dry food and roasted it on the fire, and took two bites.

The fat boss frowned, walked to the window and took a peek, "Fourth, go and see, are those brats safe?"

"Let the third child come with me and bring them some hot water. I can't get that much by myself." The fourth child said lightly, but clenched his hands tightly.

"I'm not going. I went out to explore the way just now, and the fifth one will go."

The old five said, "What water to drink, we don't have enough for ourselves, and we have to dig snow after a while, it's not troublesome."

The boss is upset right now, and thinks they are noisy, "Don't talk about it, you can get some water, brother four, that's all there is, it's for this business."

The fourth child has always been the one who worked the most in the team, so he didn't say anything and went to the apse with water.

When he entered, Ah Fu was grinding the rope in full swing. He already had a small knife, but the posture was wrong and he couldn’t use it with force, and the place where he could move was very small. He could only use two fingers to hold the grinder. Accompanied by Ah Fu all the time, both of them were gagged and unable to speak, the little girl could only express cheer with her eyes.

Seeing someone coming in, both of them froze, Ah Fu took the knife back into his palm, and in a hurry made another cut in the palm of his hand, the little girl also straightened her back, and tried her best to block Ah Fu.

The fourth child didn't seem to see anything, and fed water to the awake children one by one, and then was about to leave. Only then did the two of them breathe a sigh of relief, and then...

A cat jumped in from the window, with brown and black patterns, and the uncle's demeanor, so fucking familiar.

With such a big cat, those who didn’t see it must be blind, and then the fourth child just turned a blind eye and left, and whispered, “There is an official post five miles east from here.”

From a distance, someone outside asked, "What happened to the slap just now?" The fourth child replied, "I kicked a log."

Ah Fu can now be sure that this fourth child should be the person who just stuffed a knife in his hand behind his back. Is this person a conscience discovery?Or undercover?But the current priority is not this, Ah Fu continued to grind the rope bitterly, mother, my hands hurt so much, Yueer, I would have learned martial arts with you if I knew it, she was grinding while diverging her thoughts.

Fat Fox tilted his head to look at her, then circled around her twice, squatted behind her for a while, then came out and squatted in front of her feet.

"Bounce...bounce" the rope opened, it wasn't Ah Fu who rubbed it open, it was the fat raccoon who cut it open with his paws.

Ah Fu pulled the cloth ball out of his mouth, hugged the fat raccoon, buried his face in her long fur to suppress his cries and screams of surprise, then hugged the fat raccoon to his mouth, making a gesture of kissing, fat The raccoon slapped her on the face with its fleshy paw, 【You stupid human being, you don’t go home at night, you come to this kind of wilderness, and the cat you killed will come to you, go home and feed me Small dried fish to eat, cat language content].

The fat raccoon jumped to the window, looked back at Ah Fu, 【Hurry up, what are you doing? 】

Ah Fu took off the cloth ball from the mouth of the little girl next to him, and cut the ropes on his hands and feet with all his strength. The little girl said softly, "Don't waste time, run quickly, and call for someone to save us. I'm Hubu Shangshuyun The eldest lady of the family, my name is Yun Xiuyu, tell my family."

Ah Fu didn't raise his head, "No."

"Don't..."

"I can't tell the way."

Yun Xiuyu stopped talking.

Fat Fox jumped down and cut the rope impatiently.

Ah Fu looked at the other children who were awake.

"It's impossible for everyone to leave. There are too many people and there is too much movement. The best way is for us to go to the official post for help." Yun Xiuyu rationally pulled Ah Fu up.

Two people and one cat struggled to climb out of the window. Of course, it was mainly human beings who struggled. Then they ran into the girl who was kneeling at the feet of the fat man. This girl probably came out to fetch snow, and the basin was still thrown at her feet. .Yun Xiuyu reacted very quickly, she rushed forward, pinned down the girl, and pressed her firmly into the snow.

Although this girl is older than both of them, she is thin enough and probably still has injuries on her body. After struggling twice, she was still held down. During the struggle, various layers of scars on her arms were exposed. Yun Xiuyu said hesitantly "You were also taken captive."

The girl lay on the ground and did not move.

Yun Xiuyu covered the girl's mouth and raised her head. Ah Fu said, "Don't tell them, we will find someone to save everyone. Do you agree? Just nod if you agree."

The girl froze for a moment, then nodded obediently.

Ah Fu signaled Yun Xiuyu to let her go.

The girl was sitting on the snow, watching the two little girls running away holding hands, who would they call?They still have family members, maybe someone will rescue them, and when they go home, those people will die, what should I do?Don't even have this last bit of shelter?

She picked up the snow basin and ran into the Taoist temple, shouting loudly, "Come here, a child has escaped."

"Stop, little bitch, if you still dare to run, let the master catch you and kill you." The voice behind was getting closer and closer.

The two little girls didn't dare to distinguish the words from the wind, they just ran desperately to the east, hurry up, as long as you go faster, you might be safe.

The heavy snow covered the stones on the road, and Ah Fu was thrown into a somersault. She got up without saying a word and continued to run, but she ran slower and slower, and could feel the warm blood running down her calf into the upper of the shoe , Yun Xiuyu desperately dragged her forward, Ah Fu's legs were weak and he fell down again.

Fat Fox was not as arrogant as before, she anxiously tugged at her cuffs, got up quickly, Ah Fu tried hard, but she couldn't run any faster, so she hugged Fat Fox and stuffed it to Yun Xiuyu, "Hurry up."

The fat raccoon struggled to jump out of Yun Xiuyu's arms, and squatted at Ah Fu's feet without moving. Yun Xiuyu also sat down, "I can't run anymore."

The two and the cat sat quietly in the snow, waiting for the sad fate to come, waiting and waiting, hey, why is there no sound?

"Is it more conducive to thinking about life or practicing Zen and enlightenment in the snow?" A clear voice sounded with a smile.

The two people and the cat turned their heads at the same time, and the smiling young man squatted behind them and asked with a smile, "Do you want to eat wontons?"

"what……?"

"That's right, it's a bit cold to sit in the snow and eat wontons? My house is in front, let's go somewhere to eat."

The young man made his decision so happily, he hugged Ah Fu, and said to Shui Xiuyu, "Little girl, take hold of my robe."

Look at the fat raccoon circling around him on the ground, "Come on my shoulder."

In this way, this strange combination is going to eat wontons at the youth's home.

"Where are those people who chased us just now?" Ah Fu leaned his head on his shoulder.

"Children can't ask such bloody questions."

"There is only a Taoist temple that has been broken for a long time in front."

"Well, I remember my house was very new and very good at the time, and it was the most incensed Taoist temple near the capital."

"How many years ago was that?" Shui Xiuyu asked weakly.

"Well, I don't remember. Anyway, it was this person's grandfather who sold wontons back then."

"It was agreed that after the founding of the country, you are not allowed to become a master." Ah Fu said in a low voice.

The young man laughed heartily, "I haven't received the notification of this news yet."

I don't know if it's the young people's strides or other reasons, but after a few steps, the Taoist temple is right in front of us.

The young man pushed open the door easily and naturally, as if he had returned to his own home. "Ah, has it really changed a lot?"

"Who are you?" The third child widened his eyes and pointed the knife at him. "Where are the second and fifth child?"

"This question is too profound. Questions involving life and death are beyond the scope of the poor man's answer. You can go back and ask yourself." The young man replied politely, getting closer and closer.

"Stay away from me." The third child backed away trembling.

The young man smiled slightly and spilled something from his left sleeve, and the young man fell headlong into the snow and did not move.

"Where is Your Excellency, I don't know where I bumped into you, I would like to offer a sacrifice, I hope Your Excellency will let me live." The boss shouted, people who go to the rivers and lakes to find sideways believe in some gods and monsters. The handsome and powerful young man who breaks the Taoist temple, the boss thinks that he has bumped into a fox demon.

The young man curled his lips in displeasure, "Don't you know that after the founding of the People's Republic of China, you are not allowed to become a master?" He is learning now and selling it now.

Speaking of getting started.

The fourth child rushed forward and knocked the fat boss unconscious, and shouted, "Headmaster Qingyang, come on, this person will provide clues to the Yamen." Ah Fu's eyes widened, he was really an undercover agent.

Headmaster Qingyang?Makoto Xuan?The cheerful young man in front of him took out two bowls of wontons from his sleeve?

The two little girls seemed to have a lot of questions, Xuan Zhenzi asked, "Eat wontons or ask questions?"

Immediately, everyone had no problem. They buried their heads in their hands and ate the wonton bowl. I wondered if Ah Fu was too hungry. She felt that this bowl of wonton was exactly the same as the one just out of the pan.

After eating the wontons, everyone sat together and warmed themselves by the fire, waiting for the reinforcements to come when they received the signal.

Ah Fu hugged Fat Fox, stroked his fur, and couldn't help but raised his head and asked him, "Is this really your home? How old are you?"

Shui Xiuyun sat next to Ah Fu, and tugged on Ah Fu's sleeve nervously.

Xuan Zhenzi laughed loudly, "I'm kidding you."

Shui Xiuyu relaxed a little.

"But I remember that this place used to be a very popular Taoist temple." He said in a nostalgic tone.

Shui Xiuyu hugged Ah Fu's arm again.
