Although the words of the landlord Lao Han were not finished, several people in the courtyard understood: the widows are extremely vicious, not only robbing money and food but also robbing women!

Jin Niang, who was sweeping the floor, straightened up and wanted to speak, but when she saw that the old man was still standing at the door, she entered the house with a broom.

"Thank you, sir!" Liu Hualou pushed back the silver held by the old man with both hands: "We are just resting here for a few days, and we don't plan to stay for a long time." ”

Since the owner didn't open his mouth, he must still live here, and Liu Hualou wanted to send the landlord away quickly, so that he could go back and clean up.

Away from home, no more than at home. Yue Xi doesn't like to accompany her with a maid or maid, so most of you wear many hats, and you have to stretch out your hand when you have a job, and even Yue Xi, the head of the house, has to do it himself......

"That'...... I hope you will be careful! The landlord carefully put away the broken silver, and patted the placket of his clothes that were afraid of bulging with his hand, until he thought he had cleaned up before stepping out of the yard: "There are still a few radishes in the backyard, you are a foreigner, you can only buy vegetables and vegetables in Linxian County, and when you are lucky, you may be able to buy a few catties of meat, and those radishes can be shoeed out and eaten......"

"Thank you!" Liu Hualou hugged his fists again and thanked him, and politely sent the old man out.

Seeing the thin old man walk away, and seeing Liu Hualou closing the two courtyard doors, Yue Xi saw that the color of the two door panels was very different, obviously one of them was made up, and the old door panel also had a large number of burnt marks!

"Master, look at it!" Liu Hualou pointed to the courtyard gate and said to Yue Xi.

Yue Xi scratched his head with one hand, and said, "Jin Niang, boil the pot of water, how do I think I have lice......"

"That inn is too pickled! I think there's lice on that bed, too! Jin Niang walked out of the house and entered the kitchen: "Boil a few more pots of water, and everyone washes them!" ”

Yue Xi glanced at the kitchen before walking towards Liu Hualou and whispered: "Jin Niang is timid, let's talk less and use more snacks, don't frighten her......"

"Yes." Liu Hualou was stunned for a moment and hurriedly responded. Xindao: Or is she careful......

Eat and buy along the way, and there is no shortage of food in the carriage.

Seeing that the guards were moving things under the car, Yue Xi stopped them: "Except for the immediate use, the rest is still left in the car." Let's find out what's going on here. ”

If it's just a gang of would-be robbers, then it's not afraid of anything. If there are too many of them to deal with, then they must leave quickly, and their lives are at stake.

A few guards didn't say anything, and immediately loaded back the things that had just been moved out of the car as Yue Xi said.

……

After dinner, Yue Xi walked around the yard in a small area and looked thoughtful, Liu Hualou cleaned up the table and looked down at the window and asked, "Boss, don't you go out for a walk?" ”

Yue Xi stopped, looked up at the sky and then said: "There is not even a dog barking outside, it is estimated that the people here are scared of the woe woe, and no one comes out." We can't go out either, it's too dazzling! ”

"Oh." Liu Hualou responded, and began to ponder in her heart: banditry is so rampant here, we can't even go out, I'm afraid that we won't stay for a few days and have to continue on the road, she will definitely not drive the Taiping to such a turbulent place.

After it was dark, Yue Xi went to the room, looked at it in private, and couldn't help laughing!

Jin Niang, who was standing in the courtyard and looking at the room with her neck tilted, saw her expression and couldn't help asking, "What do you see?" Look at the delight of you! ”

Yue Xi lowered his eyes and looked at her, lowered his voice and said: "It's like a ghost town here, everyone around us can see the lights in the dark, and we can only see people walking around in the yard, you say it's fun!" ”

"Come down! Why is it so scary......" Jin Niang muttered in a low voice and immediately entered the house.

"Keep an eye on it, if there is any movement in the villagers at night, you must wake everyone up!" Yue Xi instructed the shadow guard hidden in the dense foliage tree.

In the blink of an eye, she deftly climbed to the branch next to the roof, squatted on it, held the branch with both hands, her body had already fallen, the branch sank down under the force, she stared at the ground under her feet and let go, and fell to the ground gently and skillfully.

The shadow guard on the treetops witnessed her posture with his own eyes, but he admired Yue Xi very much, and felt that it was a pity that the master was not a thief......

Yue Xi stood under the tree and clapped his hands, then went back to the room, where Jin Niang was sorting out and folding clothes.

"These inconsequential tasks will be done at dawn." As he spoke, Yue Xi blew out the candle on the windowsill: "We are surrounded by black lights, and a little light in the house will attract attention." ”

"Oh, isn't it!" Jin Niang exclaimed, as if she had bumped into the chair behind her: "Yuexi, since it's not peaceful here, let's leave early, right?" How can you do business in such a place? ”

"Let's stay for a few days." Yue Xi walked to the edge of the bed and sat down in the dark, bent down and took off his shoes and lay down: "Go to bed early, you have been walking on the road for a few days, and you can rest." ”

"Where can I sleep?" After a sound of Suosuo, Jin Niang also got into bed, climbed into it, touched the pillow and lay down slowly: "I always hear you say that I am not sure." ”

"Sleep on you, the devil won't be able to come tonight." Yue Xi rolled the quilt into a tube and rode it, still feeling uncomfortable, and suddenly remembered that Ying Su's figure was thin and thin, and when he slept next to him, he loved to ride him the most......

Thinking of this, Yue Xi quietly moved to the side of the bed, lest he fall asleep at night and ride onto Jin Niang......

"Devils?" Jin Niang sat up all of a sudden, and asked in a low voice, "Why are there still ghosts?" ”

"What I'm talking about......" In the dark, Yue Xi pursed his lips, knowing that he had leaked his mouth again: "I think that the widow is short and ugly, and he doesn't like to wear shirts, and he is not a ghost?" ”

"I see." Jin Niang let out a long breath before she was about to lie down, she hesitated slightly, but still pulled the pillow over and placed it next to Yue Xi's pillow, and she lay down lightly against Yue Xi.

"They...... Why don't they wear underwear......" Jin Niang's mind was full of the image of the 'devil' depicted by Yue Xi, and she couldn't help asking.

"The skin is thick and the hair is long, and they feel hot when they wear clothes ......in winter," Yue Xi said with a smile.

"Yo, that's pretty cold!" Jin Niang believed it.

"But it's not ......" Yue Xi only thought it was funny: Jin Niang is really fooled......

The two women were companions, talking with each other, and fell asleep after a while.

He slept almost as soon as it was dark, so Yue Xi felt that this sleep was extraordinarily long. When I woke up, it was still pitch black. She looked up at the half-open window and saw that it was already gray and dawning.

She stared at the window for a moment, until she heard the sound of the shadow guard in the room.

When she is quiet, Yue Xi will think about her two children very much, and she will also want to win Su, but she never says this.

Got up and dressed up and walked out of the house, almost as soon as Yue Xi appeared in the courtyard, the voice of the shadow guard came softly over her head: "Many people in the village have gone to the east. ”

"Hmm." Yue Xi waved his hand, indicating that he had heard it.

I went back to the house and brought a basin out to fetch water and wash, and before I cleaned up, I saw the guards sleeping in the room on both sides and Liu Hualou also got up.

"Are you going to go out?" As soon as Liu Hualou stepped out of the door, he saw that Yue Xi was stretching his muscles in the yard, so he hurriedly retreated, hiding behind the door and tidying up his clothes before walking out.

"Go out and take a walk, it's cool in the morning." Yue Xi said with a smile.

A moment later, Yue Xi walked out of the courtyard with two guards and Liu Hualou, and walked east with the people of the village.

On a summer morning, there is a faint salty smell in the humid air.

Yue Xi and his party walked in one direction behind the locals, and from time to time someone walked briskly past them, carefully examining the faces of Yue Xi and the others, and then quickly turned their faces away, as if it was not strange that a few strangers appeared here.

After walking for about a mile like this, Yue Xi smelled the salty and humid breath in the air getting worse and worse, and even had a faint fishy smell. She looked up and thought she could see the sea.

After walking a short distance, I saw that the people in front of me had bent down and lifted the hem of their robes, tucked them up at their belts, and rolled up their trouser legs.

Sure enough, it was to the beach, Yue Xi walked over, only to find that the end of the road was actually on the causeway! The shore under the embankment is not much exposed, but the strange rocks are undulating, and there are few flat places.

The beach was littered with people, all of whom were bending over and rummaging under the rocks......

"It's a dozen today?" Yue Xi asked casually.

"Sixteen." Liu Hualou replied softly.

"No wonder." Yue Xi nodded, and followed the example of the locals, bent down and lifted the hem of the robe and pulled up the trouser legs, revealing two slender and straight but black calves!

Liu Hualou knew that his behavior was very unreasonable, but he still stared at her for a long time, as if he didn't expect that the head of the house usually looked very white, and his body was so black!

"Stove ashes." Yue Xi glanced at him and said lightly.

"......" Liu Hualou suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, feeling that she had seen through her......

Then a little hope suddenly rose in his heart, and he turned his head to look at Yue Xi, only to find that she had already jumped off the seawall.

"It's really ...... of our masters" A guard quickly chased after him with a shallow smile on his face, and a few ups and downs came behind Yue Xi.

"What's wrong with the boss?" Liu Hualou grabbed a guard who was about to move forward with his trouser leg and asked in a low voice.

"When we meet such a master as our family, we people are the most worry-free!" The guard also smiled and spoke softly, but he deliberately lowered his voice when he spoke: "The local sea, most of the residents are fishermen, with dark complexions, and our heads are as careful as a hair, so we have thought of these things a long time ago and made some cover-ups, so it is difficult to distinguish them among these locals, and it will be easy for us to support." ”

"That's right." Liu Hualou let go of his hand, and the guards did not stop and went in the direction of Yuexi, and did not forget to tell him softly: "Liu Gongzi must also learn from the appearance of the locals, otherwise it is easy to be distinguished by people who are not locals, especially those bandits, who will look at these ...... the most."

"Come down, this is catching the sea, Xiao Liu'er, come down, there are a lot of seafood here, let's pick up some and eat them, it's delicious!" Yue Xi walked back and raised his face and shouted at the Liu Hualou who was still in a daze.

"Oh!" Liu Hualou came back to his senses, and quickly pulled up his trouser legs, but he was used to being pampered, and he paid great attention to the maintenance of his skin when the spring breeze was not excessive.

Yue Xi's gaze fell on his leg first, then moved back to his face, and said with a smile: "Big white legs, little white face......"

Liu Hualou's face turned red!
