Chapter 57: Escape (1)
Spreading his hands, Noah briefly told Arden what happened on the bluestone road half a month ago, and then said: "I thought this matter was over, but I didn't expect this young master Bartlet to be passable, but people are quite resentful." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Arden had actually heard about it, because it was the old beggar Bruce who secretly helped Bartlett let Noah go. It is precisely because of this that those who are secretly observing have a lot of interest in Bruce and Noah in their hearts, and they will follow them down, and finally discover the two young geniuses of Kesis and Owen.
But in fact, he himself was not present at the time, and it was only after listening to the people in the family who briefly talked about it that he understood the general situation. At this time, when the person concerned talked about it, he was naturally happy to listen.
"I've heard of this young man and know something about him. As soon as you entered the town today, you were discovered by his men, and he must have held a grudge until now. Arden nodded in agreement.
"Well, that's a bit tricky," he touched his chin, feeling a little embarrassed, "This town is under the control of their family, and almost everywhere has his eyes and ears. Even if I take you with me, there is no guarantee that you will never be discovered by them. And, for some reason, it's best for our family not to have too much contact with them..."
"Shhhhh
He walked lightly to the mouth of the alley, stood in the shadows and looked out cautiously for a few moments, then quickly returned, stretched out his big hand to pick up Noah, regardless of the helpless expression on the latter's face, his figure flashed and marched deeper into the alley, and finally jumped up and climbed over the wall.
Ten seconds later, there was a noisy sound of talking at the mouth of the alley, and there were at least a dozen people listening to the voice.
"Let me go in and search, Ah San Ah Si has been staring outside just now, and I haven't seen the figure of that kid, and there are other people who have seen him enter this alley, presumably he is still hiding inside!" Bartlet stood on the outermost side and said in a deep voice.
"Yes, young master!" Dozens of families in front of him responded in unison, and then Ma Li turned around and entered the somewhat dim alley in front of him.
"After all, I'm still a little kid, thinking it's okay to hide in this alley? What a naïve idea! Bartlet sneered and whispered disdainfully.
However, his joy and disdain did not last long.
Dozens of minutes later, those who had entered the alley came out one after another.
Different from the high spirits when they went in just now, they were all depressed at this time.
"Newspaper... Report to the young master, no one was found in the alley..."The leading family member was a little cowardly, and stepped forward and said cautiously.
"Smack!" What replied to him was a crisp slap in the face from Bartlet.
He stood with his head bowed, not daring to move even though half of his face was already fiery red.
"What's the use of what I want you subordinates?" Bartlet said angrily.
"And Ah San Ah Si, are you two made of rice buckets, or do you two not take what I explained to heart at all?! Such a bastard can't stand it, and he even lost it! He turned around again, glanced at the trembling two beside him, and asked.
Hearing this, Ah San Ah Si's legs were weak, and he couldn't help kneeling on the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "Young Master spare my life, we haven't slackened, we have been carefully monitoring that kid..."
As family members, they know the character of Young Master Batlet, if this master starts a fire, the two of them will have to shed their skin if they don't die.
"Forget it, I don't have to worry too much about the two of you, lest others say that I'm unkind as a young master..."Bartlet waved his hand.
It's just that before Ah San and Ah Si were happy, he continued: "However, the punishment of the hundred boards that should have been received by that kid should be counted on the two of you now!" ”
"Huh?" When Ah San Ah Si heard this, he sat down on the ground as if he had lost his strength.
They are no better than those professionals, their bodies have not undergone any polishing, a hundred boards, at least a month or two will not be able to get out of bed.
"What are you doing here and being embarrassed, don't let me expand the scope to search! I don't believe it, in this Blue Star Town, can a teenage stinky boy still run away from under my nose?! Bartlet slammed his fist against the wall beside him, and said hatefully.
"Yes, young master!" The family members responded in unison, and at the same time, the leader who had just been slapped also began to assign their search area.
Even if he complained because he was slapped in vain, he was still Bartlet's subordinate after all, and he didn't dare to slack off.
And just as the family members were about to leave after receiving their tasks, Bartlet spoke again.
He pointed to Ah San and Ah Si behind him, with a look of disgust on his face: "Leave two people to bring these two guys back to me, one hundred boards each, and one less will take you is asking!" ”
After saying this, he waved his hand, got into the carriage, and motioned for the coachman to return home.
If it weren't for the first time to catch Noah, he wouldn't have come to the northwest corner of this town, which symbolizes the bottom and poverty!
The carriage moved slowly, adding a few more ruts to the already potholed mud.
On both sides of the street, vendors and pedestrians who had been hiding in the distance also gathered together because of the departure of the people in Bafu.
"Eh, do you see Young Master Bartlet's angry appearance?" Someone elbowed the person next to him and said softly.
"See... To tell you the truth, this is the first time I've seen Master Bartlet's deflated at the hands of a teenager. Someone next to him nodded.
"Half a month ago, Young Master Bartlet said that he would let that kid go, but he doesn't look like he doesn't care at all today."
"Shh, let's talk less about Young Master Bartlet's behind your back, didn't you see the fate of those people just now?" An elder shook his head at the back of the crowd and said slowly.
Only this time, the people who were muttering just now were silent, looked at each other, and saw the panic and fear on each other's faces.
Then the people dispersed, and the streets were restored to their original state again.
A few minutes later.
"Uncle Arden, this place should be safe now, right?" Deepest in the alley, Noah asked softly.
In order to avoid the Butlets, Arden took him over the wall and hid on the other side. As soon as Bartlet's group left, the two of them flipped over lightly.
"It's true for a short time, but hiding here isn't an option. Well, wait here for a moment, and I can think of a way to get you out safely, if it is possible. Arden replied.
With Noah's permission, he disappeared from here in a flash.
And he went as fast as he could, but after half an hour, he returned again, only this time with a girl about Noah's age.
Because the alley was dim, Noah didn't fully see the girl's appearance, but when he saw her pouting, he was obviously a little unhappy.
