Chapter 0289 - Familiar
"Huh? This place looks familiar. β
"The ear field of the entire county is under your control, maybe you have been here, think about it, what kind of place is this, how can we go back."
"The ear field is not here, the terrain here looks like a big trench, and the ear field is on the mountain."
"It's not surprising that you've been here, you and Xune are like savages, and they dare to go there."
Xu Xinyu and Ge Kailin supported each other, walking in a big trench, both of them were wolves, their loose hair was tied back with ribbons, and their clothes were rotten in a few holes, and they could no longer see their original color.
Xu Xinyu stopped: "The trench in our village is very similar to this, but it is a cemetery, and there is no grave pile here. β
Ge Kailin pinched Xu Xinyu: "Don't be tired and confused, when did our village have such a big trench?" β
The two of them ran for a few hours, and at this time they were tired and hungry, and it was very possible that people would hallucinate when they were extremely tired.
Xu Xinyu snorted in pain and begged for mercy: "It hurts, yes, I'm tired and confused, let's not study where this is, okay, let's get something to eat first, if you don't eat it, you'll starve to death, then you won't escape in vain." β
Xu Xinyu was talking about the Qiao family cemetery in Xujiabao, but the old monk said that the time was not right, and he would not let him tell him about Ge Kailin Yi Village.
Ge Kailin turned her head to look behind her: "Then what will they do?" β
Xu Xinyu pulled her forward: "When we are full of food and drink, we will deal with them again." β
Rolling down the trench with the two of them, there were also a few pursuers. Caught off guard, they were drugged by Ge Kailin and Xu Xinyu, unable to speak or move, so the two of them found a hole and stuffed the soldiers in.
It's one thing to shoot a flying needle and hurt someone when being chased. It's another thing to watch the other person suffer.
Turning the corner, the two of them saw a courtyard in the distance, and it looked not small.
Xu Xinyu pulled Ge Kailin: "Huh? No, how can you see a family in such a big trench. β
"How do you know that there is only one family, and maybe there are people who are built in a hidden and sheltered place, but the place where it is built is too conspicuous." This time, Ge Kailin pulled Xu Xinyu forward.
"That's right." Xu Xinyu no longer hesitated, and walked towards the courtyard with Ge Kailin.
The further you go. The more strange they felt.
It is said that this is a farmer, but it is a high-walled compound, which looks like a country courtyard for a large family. But the roosters and pigs crowed from inside, and occasionally there were a few cow crows, which were incompatible with the other courtyards, and the door was wide open.
Xu Xinyu stepped forward and called the door: "Is there anyone at home?" β
Ask a few times. There was no one in there.
Instead, Gordon called out a few times. Still no one answered.
The two of them simply walked inside, asking as they went, "Is there anyone at home?" We drink under the pretext of water. β
The layout of the courtyard belongs to the common farmhouse, which is much wider than the general farmhouse.
There are five main rooms, three east wings, three west wings, and two rooms next to the east wing.
The gap between the west wing and the livestock house is half a meter, and there is a chicken coop and a pigsty on the south side of the yard.
There are two pear trees planted in the middle of the yard. Around the pear tree is a ring of greenhouses.
Whether it is a livestock house or a chicken coop and pigsty, the door is always open. The chickens run in and out of the yard, the pigs walk around, and the cows lie in the yard, enjoying the sunbathing that is not warm.
Ge Kailin stopped, looked around and said, "This courtyard looks so familiar." β
Xu Xinyu joked: "This is really a coincidence, I look at the trench and look familiar, you say I'm tired and confused, and now you say that this yard is familiar, I think you're also tired and confused. β
Ge Kailin shook her head: "That's right, the local farmhouse is built like this, but I just have a special feeling for this yard." β
But I can't remember what it feels like for a while.
Xu Xinyu pulled her: "Forget it, don't think about it yet, you can think about it when you have the strength to eat." β
The two continued to walk forward, and when they arrived at the door of the main house, Xu Xinyu raised his voice and asked, "Is there anyone at home?" β
There was no one in the house to answer.
Ge Kailin suddenly turned around and looked at the courtyard: "I remember, this courtyard is very similar to the yard of my aunt's house, it is simply a copy of my aunt's yard, if there is no longer Liangping Town, I will almost definitely return to my aunt's house when I was a child." β
She pointed to one of the pear trees in the courtyard: "There are two pear trees planted in the yard of my aunt's house, just like these two, one is thick and tall, and the branches are dense, and the other has a broken trunk and branches growing from the side, and the branches are sparse.
I asked my aunt if anyone had abused the sparse pear tree, and she said that my eldest cousin was naughty, and when he had nothing to do, he hung on the branch and played with it, and broke the main trunk, and the branch was also pulled into a strange shape by him, and from time to time he broke some small branches. β
He also pointed to the greenhouse around the pear tree and said, "My aunt's family also planted half of the yard vegetables like this, and the weather was warm at that time, so there was no need for a greenhouse." β
Xu Xinyu interrupted her: "Don't say it, the more I talk about it, the hungrier I become, let's find a way to get something to eat first." β
He lifted the thick curtain of the door, and the door was closed, and a lock hung on the door.
Xu Xinyu looked at all the doors and sighed: "It seems that there is really no one at home, all of them are locked." β
took off the only remaining earring, straightened the ring, and said, "Find something to eat first, and at most we will give money when the master's family comes back." β
In her previous life, she suffered a lot when she was wandering outside, and she developed a habit of sewing some money on her close-fitting clothes when she went out, even if she is now a little rich woman, this habit has not changed.
She had worked under the hands of the thief ancestor for so long, and her lock-picking skills were no longer comparable to those of stealing chickens and dogs, not to mention that the locks on these doors were just ordinary iron locks.
Ge Kailin was silent, and now she truly experienced the situation of being forced to be helpless.
At that time, Ge Kailin fell asleep at the chrysanthemum meeting, Liang Xiuqin sent her into the bedroom, Xu Xinyu recalled that Liang Xiuqin's expression was wrong, and she didn't dare to delay the time and chased after her.
Xu Xinyu poured Liang Xiuqin, who had just come out of the dark passage, and then went into the tunnel to find Ge Kailin.
Shi Liang and several of his cronies in the secret passage were all drugged by Xu Xinyu, and the secret passage to the bedroom was also blocked by several people.
Narrow dark passages. The people could only squat half-way inside, and Xu Xinyu was holding another Ge Kailin, and there was no way to move a few people away. Xu Xinyu gritted her teeth and had to go in the other direction of the dark road.
went all the way to the end of the dark passage, and Xu Xinyu was blocked by someone before she could rejoice, and those people came to answer Shi Liang.
Xu Xinyu rushed left and right, she was only one person after all, and she was still carrying the sleeping Ge Kailin on her back, and the two were taken captive into the secret workshop.
I'm afraid that Shi Liang will drug the food. The two did not eat or drink, did not dare to sleep at the same time, and only relied on the elixir prepared by Sun Fuzi to maintain their energy.
But pills can't replace food after all. Coupled with the consumption of escaping, if it weren't for the two of them sucking some dew from the leaves to quench their thirst when they rolled into the trench, I am afraid they would not have been able to climb at this time.
Xu Xinyu first opened the lock of the room, except for half a tank of water in the room. Nothing can be eaten.
"It's cold. I guess I'm going to bring the food into the house. She muttered to herself as she opened the next east wing again.
As soon as she relaxed, Ge Kailin felt a pain in her feet, and let Xu Xinyu toss, she sat on the ground and took off her shoes and rubbed her feet.
Alas, when will my little feet, which are equivalent to three-inch golden lotus, grow up?
Thinking so, she knew that there was little hope of her feet growing again.
She is over 15 years old and is already more than 1.6 meters tall. Already taller than her mother, unless she inherited her grandfather's genes from her mother. Otherwise, there is not much room for growth.
What's more, if she is tall, her feet will not grow, and her growth in height and feet will not be disproportionate to the growth of her feet for more than ten years.
Ge Kailin was sighing secretly, and Xu Xinyu withdrew from the east wing, looking awkward.
"What's wrong?" Gordon asked.
"Come and see for yourself." Xu Xinyu raised his chin towards the east wing.
"What's so mysterious?" Ger put on her shoes and limped over.
Xu Xinyu went in first, and Ge Kailin stepped over the threshold with her feet on the door frame.
followed Xu Xinyu into the inner room, and Ge Kailin was stunned.
The room is simply furnished, with a bed, a dresser, and a wardrobe.
There was a man on the bed who was moving vigorously, half of the quilt on his body had rolled off, and his body was wrapped like a rice dumpling, wrapped in a wide cloth belt, and only his head was exposed.
It was impossible to tell if the man was male or female, because the man's face and neck were covered with messy hair.
Xu Xinyu and Ge Kailin looked at each other and slowly walked to the bed.
Xu Xinyu tentatively removed the hair from the man's face and gasped.
Ge Kailin couldn't help but cover her mouth with her hand.
The mouth of the person on the bed was also tied with a wide cloth band, and his face was covered with scars, which made it unbearable to look at directly.
Xu Xinyu was bolder, looked carefully at the man's neck, and asked, "Are you a girl?" β
The man didn't move, nodded, and his eyes roamed back and forth between Xu Xinyu and Ge Kailin, and finally settled on Ge Kailin's face.
His eyes were first scrutinized, then surprised, then delighted, and finally tears.
Ge Kailin felt strange: "You know me? β
The girl nodded again, tears streaming harder than before.
Ge Kailin approached the bedside, and Xu Xinyu touched the man's body one step ahead of her.
Then apologized: "I'm sorry, we just escaped from a loss, so we have to be cautious." β
Hands and feet quickly untied the wide cloth strap that had been tied around the man's mouth.
"What's your name, and how do you recognize me?" β
The girl opened her mouth a few times, but she couldn't make a sound, and she was so anxious that she burst into tears again.
Xu Xinyu asked, "Do you know how to write?" β
The girl nodded.
Xu Xinyu ran to the dresser and rummaged through, returned empty-handed, and muttered, "I don't even have anything that can be used as scissors." β
"Use this." Ge Kailin took out a miniature dagger from her body and handed it to Xu Xinyu
Xu Xinyu glared: "You have this hidden on you, why didn't you take it out earlier." β
Ge Kailin ignored her, the things hidden in her body were naturally taken out when they were useful, Xu Xinyu This is purely anger, people are tired and have to do things, it is normal to have a bad temper.
Xu Xinyu carefully cut the position of the man's hand with a dagger, and said as he cut it: "I will first release your hand so that you can write, and make sure that you are not disadvantageous to us, and then we will release you." β
Remembering that there was no pen or paper in the room, she spread out her palm and asked the man to gesture on her hand.
The thin fingers were writing weakly in the palm of Xu Xinyu's hand, but Xu Xinyu and Ge Kailin never understood what was written.
The girl wept silently, she had no strength.
Xu Xinyu comforted her: "Don't cry, try again." β
Biting his finger, he pointed at Ge Kailin and said to the girl: "Dip this and write it on her hand, it is easier to recognize it if there is a mark." β
The girl was stunned, but she didn't hesitate, dipped the blood on Xu Xinyu's fingers, and slowly wrote on Ge Kailin's palm.
After writing the three words, Ge Kailin's eyes widened in disbelief.
Although the writing is crooked, I can also recognize that these three words are: Wu Yinwei.
"You're the fifth cousin?" Gordon asked.
The girl nodded.
It was so sudden that Ge Kailin didn't know what to do for a while.
Stunned for a moment, she remembered the pearl hanging around her neck, and took it out to show the man: "Do you recognize this?" β
The man was also stunned for a moment, and made an exit shape: "Mine." β
Seeing that Ge Kailin was stunned, the girl stretched out three fingers and made a mouth shape: "Yours." β
Ge Kailin was ecstatic: "Xinyu, this is really my fifth cousin, Wu Yinwei." β
"Okay, I'll untie her now." Xu Xinyu carefully swiped the cloth belt with a dagger.
Wu Yinwei didn't move, just looked at Ge Kailin and cried.
When the cloth belt on Wu Yinwei's body was completely untied, Wu Yinwei closed her eyes and did not move.
Ge Kailin was anxious and grabbed Wu Yinwei's wrist to check the pulse.
He breathed a sigh of relief: "The pulse is very weak, and it is estimated that he is hungry like us." β
"Oh, looking for something to eat." Xu Xinyu hurriedly ran out.
All the house door locks were opened, not a grain of grain was found, even the greenhouse was bare, Xu Xinyu was so angry that he wanted to smash things.
"Giggleββ, cluckββ,......"
A hen called to come out of the hen's nest, and Xu Xinyu scolded: "Kill you again to eat meat." β
"Giggleββ, cluckββ,......"
But the hen cried vigorously, and this cry was to announce to her master that she had laid an egg in glory.
Xu Xinyu was so angry that she went to chase the hens: "What is it called, I don't believe that you will lay eggs on a cold day." β
The hen was so startled by her that she flew up the wall.
Xu Xinyu was stunned, what a hell, this white and round chicken nest is not what an egg is.
Reaching in, the eggs were still hot, which showed that it was really the eggs laid by the hen just now.
Another hand reached into the chicken coop, and there were eggs in the nest, and she touched them one by one, and there were as many as seven.
The other eggs were cold to the touch, and a few had frozen cracked.
She changed a chicken coop to touch, and there were eggs in it, and she touched all the chicken coops, and almost all of them had eggs in them.
Xu Xinyu lifted her skirt, picked up some eggs as much as she could and went to the room.
first made a bowl of egg soup, fed Wu Yinwei with Ge Kailin, and then made two bowls of steamed eggs, and ate one bowl each with Ge Kailin.
There is something in the stomach, and people feel even more sleepy, but the two of them dare not be careless, just like when they were in the cave, each person takes turns to rest for an hour, and sleeps next to Wu Yinwei, and the person who does not sleep is also responsible for taking care of Wu Yinwei in addition to being vigilant.
The two of them have suffered a lot of sins in the past few days, the sleeping ones can't sleep well, and the awake ones frown.
When Wu Yinwei opened her eyes, she happened to be grinning at Shangxu Xinyu's grinning face. (To be continued.) )
