There was a matter of traveling Fang Daoist in the Yaowang Temple, and soon Nianfu knew about it.

If ordinary people wander outside on such a snowy day, it will definitely arouse suspicion, but monks and Taoists are obviously masters who do not follow the usual path, so they may not pay attention to Nianfu when they hear it.

It's getting dark, and it's time for the little potato boy to go to bed.

Because of the problems that his master is used to, this child must be told a story when he sleeps. You can't talk nonsense yet, he can hear from the change in tone and tone whether you are serious or not, and if you are not qualified, you have to go back and start again.

Nianfu didn't have as much black water in her stomach as Su Cheng, so she could only make up a story to tell him.

“…… The Little Mermaid only realized at this time that no matter whether the prince loved her or not, he would always marry a princess, because they were the right kind of people. And she, giving up her original status as a princess, even if she is willing to be humbled to the dust, it is useless. ”

Nianfu nodded his son's little nose and told him seriously, "So, little potato boy, you have to remember that you must not be the same as that scumbag prince." If you like people, you have to be with them. If you don't like it, don't be nice to others. Because to give hope and then to let it be shattered, this is a very bad thing, and it will be punished. Women, in particular, are very cautious. ”

Fat White Potato listened to her emotional early education stupidly, then waved his hands and feet, and babbled a few times.

When Nianfu heard his son, he felt that he had taught him well, so he stretched out his hand and patted him, "Okay, okay, the story is over, go to sleep." ”

The fat sweet potato yawned very obediently, deflated his mouth, slowly closed his eyes, and went to sleep.

After this kid is done, Nianfu can also rest.

But instead of sleeping, she washed her hands again and copied the scriptures seriously.

The little girl Chunmiao said, "Why don't you take a day off from the county lord?" It's not early today. ”

But the way of reciting blessings and not raising their heads. "You can't afford to do what you promise, and even more so if you promise a bodhisattva. I said that if I want to copy one article every day, I must copy it. ”

To do things, reciting blessings is not to make appearances. She's serious about doing it. He also set himself the task of writing calligraphy the most, and he had to copy scriptures every day.

At the moment, Brother Xing'er's news is not confirmed, and Dr. Sun is still there, so she can't give up.

By the time she finished copying the scriptures, it was already two days. The biological clock adjusted by this era was so sleepy that I couldn't open my eyes, washed and rested, and fell asleep almost as soon as I touched my head on the pillow.

Chunae lightly cleaned up the house and poured out the dirty water she had used and spilled it. Unexpectedly, he saw that Bai Xuan didn't sleep, wearing a coat and carrying a thick straw mat to the stable.

"What are you doing here?"

Bai Xuan said, "It's much colder down this mountain than it is at the bottom, and it's snowing, so I'll add some straw mats to the horses." Otherwise, you will get frostbitten and you will not be able to go down the mountain tomorrow morning. ”

When Chunmiao heard this, she took out a plate of dim sum and a few big taro from the house, "The master is doing things here, only these vegetarian things, you take them, and eat them after you are busy baking." Save yourself from being hungry in the middle of the night. ”

Bai Xuan smiled and thanked him, went to work, Chunmiao cleaned up, and rested from the latched door.

In the front yard, Chong Xu, who pretended to be a wandering Taoist, was still talking to the little master in the temple.

"This is a big family that is so sincere, it's almost the New Year, and they are still doing things in the mountains."

"Isn't it? I want to come to the Bodhisattva with a spirit. will bless her with all her wishes. "The little master had already received the gag order and didn't answer his words.

There was a small ingots hidden in Chongxu's sleeve, and after thinking about it for a long time, he was afraid of startling the snake, but he didn't take it out in the end, so he also rested. But in my heart, I feel that this business does not seem to be so easy to do.

Although there are not many people who take the blessing, they are all very well-behaved, and the temple should be in place, and no one says a word. If he had been a lone thief, he would have given up on it.

A home, no matter how big or small, is not easy to steal if it is organized and the door is strict. To put it bluntly, it's just that flies don't stare at the eggs that are not sewn.

But thinking about the 10,000 taels of gold that Ryan said, he was a little unwilling. Wealth and danger are sought, or let's fight for it.

He closed his eyes, closed his eyes, and recuperated.

The night is getting deeper.

In the small Yaowang Temple, the lights gradually went out, so quiet that only the whirring wind could be heard.

Nianfu is used to the weather on the mountain, but he doesn't feel anything, and the fat sweet potato is a person who doesn't pick a bed, and he can sleep when he is given a place.

However, Bai Xuan was a little restless, because his father Bai Xiang was not there, he had to take care of the horses, although he had added a grass blanket before, and fed the horses fodder, but he was always afraid that the horses would not adapt and would have trouble on the way back tomorrow.

For a while, I thought of my sick boy, and I really couldn't let go of it.

Strange to say, the child originally had a cold and cough in the winter, and it was much better after taking two pairs of medicines prescribed by Dr. Gao. But lately, somehow, I've always been lazy and have no energy.

Bai Xuan seemed to be quite a gentleman when he talked to Su Cheng, so he didn't have to worry about it. But how can there be any children in their hearts who don't remember it?

said that when the child was born, he threw it down and ran away, and he didn't take him for a few days, but as soon as he went to Beijing, the child was very close to him.

Every day, if there is good food and drink, I have to stay, and I say that I want to give it to my father. Every day as soon as he comes home, the child will come up and look up and say that Daddy has worked hard, Daddy sits, Daddy drinks tea, Daddy eats.

Bai Xuan didn't say anything, but his heart was very warm and appropriate.

Your own children are treasures.

Seeing that the child is so old, Bai Xuan also thought that when Ming'er came down the mountain, he should be able to rest for a long time, so he took him to Doctor Gao to take a serious look.

The daughter-in-law Camellia had told him several times, but he always felt that the child was no big deal and refused. What's more, they went to Dr. Gao to see a doctor and get medicine, and the last person to pay the bill was the master, and they ran too much, which was inevitably annoying. But it's almost the New Year, so it's better to give the child a serious look.

Bai Xuan, who was tossing and turning here, didn't know that in Poyuan's house, his son had already started a high fever, and the child couldn't speak clearly, only that he was uncomfortable and crying.

Camellia was so anxious that she asked her mother-in-law, "What's wrong with him?" ”

Bai Xiang's daughter-in-law didn't know that she suddenly got sick in the middle of the night, but what should she do?

Bai Xiang saw that the child was uncomfortable like this, and couldn't sit still, "No, I'll go and talk to the master." Let's take him to Dr. Gao's place. ”

Because the second watch has passed, even if they go out to commit a curfew, if they don't find the master to take the token in the house, they will be arrested when they go out. Even if you have to bother. I'm going to have to bother with that, too.

Su Cheng was easy to speak, although he was woken up from his sleep, but he heard that the child was suddenly ill, so he was not angry at all, sat up in his clothes, and told the steward to take the token, and quickly set up a car to send them there, saving the cold wind blowing on the road.

Bai Xiang was about to leave with the child in his arms, Su Cheng suddenly remembered, and took out the hot soup woman from the bed. "You take this with you and give it to the child."

Bai Xiang hugged the child and thanked him, he didn't enter the house, but Su Cheng suddenly glanced at the child from the curtain that was raised, and his face changed suddenly. "You hold the child close to me and let me see."

Bai Xiang didn't know what was going on, and took a few steps forward.

Su Cheng looked at it, and small blisters the size of rice grains had appeared on the child's burnt red face. He was suddenly shocked, "Pox, he's having pox!" Quickly, send it to Dr. Gao immediately. Don't delay for a moment! ”

Bai Xiang was so frightened that he didn't even have time to wait for the carriage, grabbed the token and ran out.

Su Cheng hurriedly asked people to follow, and when he turned around, he was also shocked, and hurriedly ordered someone to clean the house. Burn incense to drive away filth.

It's not that he's making a fuss and disliking people. In fact, in this day and age, it is a terrible thing for children to have acne rashes.

Once upon a time, when he was young, he had seen his younger siblings have chickenpox. First one, and then several. In the end, she survived by luck, and there was only one sister, a little girl who was originally beautiful, but her face was ugly and pockmarked, so she could only choose an honest person with an average family background to marry low.

Su Cheng is not afraid of anything, but he is afraid that the little potato boy will be infected. If something happened to that kid, it would kill him.

At this time, Su Cheng was glad that the little potato boy was on the mountain and escaped the catastrophe at home. But he didn't know that the catastrophe of Little Potato Boy on the mountain was coming.

Because he was worried about his son at home and the horses in the stable, Bai Xuan couldn't sleep well.

When he was in a daze for almost four watches, he woke up again. I couldn't sleep even more when I got up and peed, and I was thinking about whether to get up or not, when I suddenly heard the faint cry of a baby from the other side of the main house.

Bai Xuan got up, got dressed and went out to see, it was the little potato boy who slept until midnight and got up to pee and feed, and suddenly found that this was not his familiar home, and he was scared in hindsight.

Fortunately, his mother was by his side, and after a while, the little potato boy slowly quieted down and went back to sleep.

Bai Xuan knew that it was okay, and laughed with the guards on duty at night, "My son is like this too." When I came to the capital, I woke up in the middle of the night, crying and saying, "Where is my house?" This is not my home. ”

The guards also laughed, and Bai Xuan couldn't sleep at all. He got up too early and was a little hungry, so he remembered the few taro that Chunmiao had given, and they happened to be taken to the stove to bake and eat with others.

And in the dead of night, the movement here was also heard by Chongxu, who had been spying on this side.

Sky!

The county lord's child actually came? If not, how could the children of the next person be allowed to live in the main house?

Chong Xuan was really surprised and delighted, originally thinking that it might be a little difficult to catch a county lord, but if the county lord still has a child, it will be much easier.

He also pretended to get up to pee, took ** incense, and stunned several masters who lived in the front yard. Then he quietly opened the temple door and waited quietly.

Because the guards here are only in charge of her backyard, and the movements that happened in the front yard are unknown to everyone.

The third watch is coming to an end, and the fourth watch is coming.

The group of people under Chongxu, including Li Qing Rui'an, all came up quietly.

At night, the mountain wind was extremely strong, whistling as if galloping thousands of horses, and the sound of their horses' hooves was well muffled. Although it was also very difficult, I didn't have to pull the car, and I finally came up.

It's just that Chongxu saw that they actually rode horses, and immediately scolded stupid.

It's easy to go up the hill and hard to go down.

Especially on a snowy day like this, it's so difficult to get on a horse, how do you get down? When the time comes, no one will have to chase you, and you can fall on a big horse if you are not careful.

However, this was not the time to care, he stepped forward and intercepted them at a distance from the Medicine God Temple. Roughly talked about the terrain of the backyard, and arranged for people to outflank by different roads,

These are the best skills of robbers, and everyone is fine. It was too dark, and Chong Xuan didn't notice the different colors when Ryan and Li Qing looked at him.

It's just that no one thought that Bai Xuan's taro was roasted at this time. Seeing that there were still many after giving them to the guards on duty at night, he kindly came to give them to the master who was keeping vigil in the front yard.

I didn't expect to see someone faint on the ground. The door of the front yard was still open, and I could vaguely see a lot of people sneaking here.

"The thief is coming! The bandits are coming! ”

Bai Xuan threw down the taro regardless of it, screamed and rushed back, and the first one rushed to the outside of Nianfu's house. "Hurry up, the county lord is coming, there are bandits coming!"

Nianfu heard the movement and was already dressed up. didn't have time to think about it, she picked up the little potato boy who was sleeping like a pig, and she didn't even have time to put on her clothes, so she quickly wrapped him in a thick mink with a small quilt, made a bag, and called Bai Xuan in.

It's just that when she finally wanted to hand over the child, she asked Bai Xuan. "Can I trust you again?"

A thousand words, all in this sentence.

Bai Xuan was slightly stunned, and his face was full of firmness in an instant, "Even if I die, I will protect the little master!" ”

Good. Nianfu shoved the child into his arms. "Take him to the back mountain to hide, and you will follow Wangcai. Yujiao, you help him clear the way. ”

As he spoke, the whole room woke up, and the guards blew special whistles that pierced the night sky, and lit huge oil lamps on the high poles behind the house.

Chong Xujian revealed his whereabouts. simply did not hide it anymore, but outflanked it with open fire.

What they didn't know was that Su Cheng had already ambushed a team of men and horses at the foot of the back mountain. I had already told these guards that if something happened on the mountain, no matter what the situation was, they would blow the whistle and light the lights immediately. In this way, the people at the bottom of the mountain will rush to the rescue as quickly as possible.

Nianfu asked Bai Xuan to take the child from the back mountain, which is undoubtedly the safest road.

And the gang of bandits also moved extremely quickly, and in such a short time, they were outflanked to the rear.

Yujiao quickly made a gap, allowing Bai Xuan to run first with the little potato boy. Fight with others yourself. And Wangcai also followed closely by Bai Xuan's side, not leaving half a step.

Seeing that it was very likely to be ambushed, Chong Xuan did not hesitate, "Quick, rush in, rob people first!" ”

Only with the hostages in hand can they save their lives, and then it is easy to say what conditions they want to talk about.

But he would never have thought that in order to hide people's eyes, although Su Cheng sent some ordinary guards, he equipped these guards with the most lethal short crossbows in the army.

Although there are only five pairs in total, they can be fired three times at a time, and when used in such short- and medium-distance combat, it is like a withering and decaying.

The robbers who came up from the siege soon fell down in a batch, and even Chong Xu, who did not check for a while, was hit by an arrow in the leg. If it weren't for winter, wearing a heavy cotton coat, the arrow would have nailed his leg in pair.

"Stop!" Suddenly, the woman's sharp voice screamed sharply, it was Ryan. Seeing that the situation was not good, she launched her own life amulet, "County Lord, if you don't stop calling for help, I will kill this little bastard of the Sun family!" ”

She didn't even know that she still had such a trump card in her hand, and she was suddenly pleasantly surprised.

The door of the main house opened, and the lord of Jiashan came out neatly dressed in a bright light and candle.

She didn't dress up very richly, but the momentum of her cold face made Chong Xuan secretly frightened.

This woman is not easy to deal with.

"You're finally here." Nianfu looked at Ryan with a slight relief in his eyes. finally lured her out, and all these years of grievances should be over.

Ryan held a dagger in his hand and pressed it against the little boy's neck, his eyes showing a fierce light, "It turns out that you have already calculated that I am coming." Are you here to lure me in? ”

"The Dharma is true, and it is also true that it will lead you to the bait." However, if you want to talk to me about the conditions, how can you prove that the child in your hand is Brother Xing'er? ”

Ryan sneered and lifted the little boy's right leg pants with one hand, revealing a cyan birthmark on the outside of his ankle, "If you have checked his details, you should know that this child was born with this birthmark." ”

What Nianfu noticed was the iron chain tied to the child's thin feet and neck, which had already worn the ankles to red, swollen and festered. And on such a cold day, such a young child was actually wearing only a thin pair of single pants, and an oversized old cotton jacket was on his body, and his lips were purple from the cold.

Nianfu's heart ached, since she became a mother, she couldn't see these abuses of children more and more, and when she looked at Ryan again, she hated her a little more.

"Say it, your conditions. But before you speak, it's a good idea to weigh up where you stand. My men are coming up from the bottom of the hill, and it shouldn't be long before they arrive. If you put the child well. Maybe I'll give you a whole corpse. ”

Ryan sneered, "In that case, I might as well just drag this child to be buried with me!" ”

She jerked open the child's oversized cotton coat and saw him inside. is also wearing only a single shirt, wrapped in layers of red dry day thunder, which is the most powerful firecracker, and there is a strong smell of fire oil.

Seeing that Nianfu's face changed slightly, she raised her eyebrows and smiled proudly, "Aren't you very good at using fire?" As soon as you get a spark out, this kid will immediately burn into a fireball and explode crackling, do you want to give it a try? ”

She's not human!

Nian Fu took a slight breath and ordered himself to remain calm. "Say what you want."

Ryan's eyes narrowed, and he was fierce, "I want you to die!" ”

Chong Xuan was stunned, he was seeking wealth. What's in it for him to kill a county lord?

"No, no, we're just asking for money!"

But Ryan glanced to the side, and felt a pain in his lower back when he was cold, but fortunately, he was experienced in the rivers and lakes, and his vigilance was very high, and his body twisted. The key point was avoided, but the injury was still not light.

Turning his head, he looked at Li Qing who was stabbing the dark knife behind him in disbelief, and was shocked and angry, "You...... How dare you do it to me? Kill him! ”

But none of the thugs under him moved, but looked at him. The eyes are extremely indifferent.

A thought suddenly flashed in Chong Xu's mind, and the whole person trembled with fear and fear, "You, you dare to betray me?" ”

Li Qing said gloomily, "You have enjoyed the blessings of so many years alone. That's enough. When you die, all your assets will be everyone's, so why should everyone work for you? Uncle Shi, get acquainted, let's get on the road earlier. ”

Chong Xuan really didn't expect that in the few hours he left, Li Qing and Ruian actually turned all their subordinates against him.

But it's no wonder that what they want to do is such a big deal, who doesn't blush?

blamed himself for being careless, he didn't expect this layer for a while, and he regretted and hated it in his heart.

But he was secretly glad that he didn't help him, and he didn't tell them that the county lord's child was also among them. Although this pair of young people is ruthless and vicious enough, they are obviously inexperienced, and now without his help, it is impossible to get out of the whole body.

So he endured the severe pain and said, "You want me to die, it's not enough to be hot." ”

As he spoke, he threw a thunderbolt from his bosom and smashed it on the ground, sending out a thick white mist, and he disappeared with this white mist.

He ran away, and everyone didn't have time to deal with it.

Ryan looked at Nianfu again, with a chill in his eyes, "If you are ruthless enough, even if you let your subordinates set fire to it or release arrows, and have this little bastard of the Sun family to accompany the burial, I will die unjustly." I don't know how you're going to spend that long night. When the time comes, will you remember that a family was killed by you, and you didn't even let go of such a young child. ”

Nianfu clenched his fists tightly before he restrained the urge to rush up and beat people, "Ryan, let me ask myself if our family is benevolent to you, how can you take revenge like this?" ”

Ryan snorted coldly, "What is En, what is Enmity?" If you are really so kind, why don't you be your country girl honestly, but come to steal my position? You robbed me of my position and married me to a useless stammer. Do you want me to thank you for such hypocrisy? Dream! ”

Nianfu knew that there was no need to communicate with this kind of person at all, if it weren't for the delay in time, she wouldn't be disgusted like this.

"You want me to die, that's impossible. I really want to save people, but I'm not noble enough to do that. Like you said, I'm a hypocrite, so, let's say, what is your purpose. ”

"Gold, twenty thousand taels."

This time, it was Li Qing who spoke, and he saw that Nianfu was trying to delay time, so he interrupted Ryan, "Don't talk nonsense with her, let's finish our business and leave early." ”

He looked at Nian Fu and said, "It's okay to bring gold, silver and jewelry." Then ask someone to prepare the carriage and horses and the road guide for customs clearance, and send us away. Of course, you'll have to come and take us hostage. When we receive the money, we will naturally let you and this Sun family kid go. ”

"How can I trust you?" ”

Ryan scoffed, "No, you'll have to take a gamble." Otherwise, you will order us all to be killed. Then, we fight to the death, and we may not be able to kill a few more people. When the time comes, you must remember to go to the Hades Palace to make it clear that it is this Jiashan County Lord, who will harm you if you don't save you when you see death. ”

If eyes could kill, Nianfu would have killed her thousands of times, but she couldn't. So, she could only make one decision.

(The bun will be fine, and no one dares to abuse him.) The author is a grandmother~~~)
