Retracting his gaze from the half-open town gate, Zhuang Cheng almost begged and said to the two unidentified Lian Jiazi, "Do you have to leave Yuanqing Town immediately?" ”

"If there is such a big change, it should be explained to the owner in person. www.biquge.info The man who hugged his fist said in a slightly sad tone: "When the master learns about the actions of the son in the past few days, he will understand that the dealer has been treating the girl like a day for more than ten years. I hope that Gongzi and the whole family will get out of their grief as soon as possible. ”

Family? Zhuang Cheng smiled bitterly: It's probably just that it's hard for me to get out alone.

"Have you ever wondered what would happen if the girl came back after they had left? Or perhaps, the person who went to the outside of the Saiwai was not a girl at all. Zhuang Cheng, who had not many people available under his hands, was respectful, and even held the poured tea in both hands and handed it to the two men. According to the contemptible opinion, why don't you stay a few more days and expand the scope of the investigation? ”

"It's been delayed for three days, and no matter how late I am afraid that the owner will blame, it is not a chivalrous act. Moreover, the possible places have been carefully investigated. The man who took the teacup proposed apologetically: "Why don't you ask some people from the dealer with a raw face to check quietly?" ”

Knowing that it is difficult to leave their Zhuang Cheng silent sigh: let the dealer be checked? Except for you who have never hurt Shuo'er, which Zhuang family member I dare to let get involved in this matter? Whether it's his father's garrison or the backyard people managed by his mother, once he finds out that Shuo'er is not dead, he will definitely return to his parents. Mother has blamed Shuo'er for my brother's purple face being slapped by me, and his father also called "today is different from the past", and he is determined to choose to defend the dealer and his mother, and Shuo'er is still alive can't let them find out, let alone anything else?

What you think in your heart doesn't mean what you say.

As soon as something happened, my father asked the next person who gave birth to face to inquire in the whole town. Unfortunately, nothing has been achieved so far. Unconsciously stroking the protrusion of the corner of the stool, Zhuang Cheng gritted his teeth and said: "My mother still doesn't believe that the daughter who has been raised for more than ten years is just gone, and she can't stop crying day and night." But if you tell your mother that a girl has escaped to the outside of the city, she is afraid that her mother will faint in shock. ”

In addition to Liu Ting, who came through the plug, he didn't know much about the evil, how could the two practitioners not know?

Confused by Zhuang Cheng's success, they hugged their fists and said with a hint: "The dealer treats the girl as if she has come out, and the owner has always been grateful." This is also the reason why our brothers are willing to be sent by the son. ”

Zhuang Cheng knew that if Zhuang Shuo no longer appeared, the two men in front of him would also disappear completely. As long as it is information related to Zhuang Shuo, Zhuang Cheng doesn't want to miss it, even if he is restless now.

"If you have the exact news of your sister, do you want to tell the two of you?" Seizing the last opportunity, Zhuang Cheng used another method to inquire about the origin of the two men. He put on an unusually grateful posture and bowed his waist and added: "The two of you have helped the dealer a lot." The Maison deserves something in return. ”

The younger man ended his hesitation and whispered under the scrutiny of his companions, "Then there is Lao Gongzi." If it's convenient, write a letter to your fellow villagers who are concierges in Yulin Academy. ”

Zhuang Cheng bowed again. The moment he bent down, he nodded secretly in his heart: The gatehouse of Yulin Academy, if you follow this line, you can know Shuo'er's true identity. Most likely, more can also be found through Shuo'er's identity.

In the case that he had no gain and didn't want the woman to go outside the Saiwai was Zhuang Shuo, Zhuang Cheng could only comfort himself with this. But this was more than a comfort, it was a must-do, and within a few days it was cleared of the growing apprehension in his mind—he knew that as time went on, he might get less information.

If he hadn't been holding on with the idea of "she never left", Zhuang Cheng suspected that he wouldn't have been able to wait for the moment when he would see his mother again. He vaguely remembered that it seemed that on the seventh day when he was unable to eat, Zhuang Wangshu rushed over with a few capable lieutenants.

The Tadamu general, dressed in gray and black clothes, looked much older, and as soon as he appeared, he was surrounded by officials near the town gate. It took a while for Zhuang Wangshu to get rid of the overwhelming "festival mourning" greetings. When he stood in front of Zhuang Cheng, who was foaming at the mouth and lying on the table, he didn't even have the strength to get up, and several lieutenants behind him obviously saw the general's shoulders tremble slightly.

"You've been here for almost half a month. If you want to show others a play, you can't help but go home. Zhuang Wangshu, who was bent down and whispering in his son's ear, had a hoarse voice and reminded in a low voice: "Your mother hasn't seen you for ten days." If you don't go back, what will happen to your mother? ”

Zhuang Cheng opened his mouth and wanted to say, "Mother still has you, there is no one around Shuo'er." But when he speaks, he can't even hear himself, how can he expect his father who has left his side?

The Zhongwu general, who straightened his waist, tilted his head back, and the adjutant general behind him immediately stepped forward and put Zhuang Cheng, who had no power to resist, into the carriage.

On this day, the mourning of the Zhuang family's loss of their daughter was passed down by the officials; On this day, Zhuang Cheng, who faced his mother's tears, swallowed a small half bowl of rice like chewing wax. When the eldest brother poured the decoction into his mouth, Zhuang Cheng found for the first time that the decoction flowing into his mouth was not bitter at all.

On this day, Liu Ting slept in a wooden cage for the first time. Liu Ting, who was only covered with hay, woke up in the middle of the night, sitting in the corner shivering. She struggled to move to get closer to the fire burning on the edge of the cage, but the movement provoked a completely incomprehensible reprimand. Not long after the Yiyu speaker cursed, a man in a robe came with a wine in his hand.

He knelt respectfully in front of Yiren and raised his handbag above his head with both hands. Yiren, who took the wine, looked at the man, glanced at Liu Ting again, and after explaining, he finally took the wine bag and walked to the fire that burned even more vigorously.

"Try not to make them feel your presence." The man actually whispered to Liu Ting in standard Chinese: "So that you can take fewer beatings." ”

Liu Ting's eyes widened, and she could see the other party's face clearly through the faint light emitted by the fire.

The skin on the man's face was dry and cracked, and it was rougher than the skin of the man. But his eyes and eyebrows are fundamentally different from the roughness of Yiren.

"Are you...... Han? After getting the other party's nod, Liu Ting was so happy that she stretched out her hand to the other party. Can you help me escape? ”

"When you get to the outside of the fortress, if you don't want to die, you should never think about running away." The man's tone was frustrated but clear, "Without enough food, you will starve to death on the road." If you encounter a Yiren, they will twist it back. All slaves who escaped and were captured were shared by the Yi people. Minors are not immune......"

Liu Ting's voice was filled with tears: "Do you want to stay here forever?" ”

"Coax Tashi, he is the head of the house. Tashi is happy, and may reward you with freedom. ”

As soon as the man's words fell, the Yiren holding the wine shouted again. bowed to Yiren again and again, and the man didn't look at Liu Ting again, and disappeared behind the hidden curtain again.
