As soon as she came back from Puji Temple, Jinwen set up a loom again, last winter was too hurried, this year she plans to weave a few pieces of cloth as soon as possible, make good clothes, and have time to embroider some flowers on the clothes before the cold to do a good job, Brother Huzi said that he has never embroidered on his clothes, and he has to make two pairs of new shoes, especially cotton shoes, he failed to make new cotton shoes last year, he had to take a fur pad embroidered shoes to keep warm, Brother Huzi also had frostbite on his feet last year, it is still August, and it is best to make these before October.

I don't have to work in the field, and there are only three people in the family, so busy with winter clothes, and the women of other families in the village often work in the field during the day, aren't they even busier.

On the second day after the temple fair, Wang Yuanshan planned to go into the mountains to hunt, and the family had food, clothing and silver, but he was not in a hurry to hunt a big game for money, and there were still a few bags of rice to be turned over again, so he asked Wang Rui to stay at home and watch the house with Jinwen.

I didn't expect that there were unforeseen storms in the sky, Wang Yuanshan had just entered the mountain on the first day, and the wind rose in the afternoon of the second day, and a large black cloud was floating in the sky in the distance, Wang Rui hurriedly rushed to the drying field, put away the millet in the drying and bagged it, and Jinwen also came to help, and finally collected it before the rain. The two of them entered the house with their front feet, and there was a torrential rain under their back feet, and the rain was like pouring down, and it was obviously afternoon, and the sky was dark as if it was going to be night.

Jin Wen looked at the rain and was worried that Wang Yuanshan would be raining on the mountain, but with such a large piece of North Mountain, he didn't know where to send rain gear, Wang Rui knew that there was a cave on the mountain to shelter from the rain, and there were grass huts built by hunters to shelter from the rain overnight, so he was not too worried.

When the rain was almost dark, it finally got smaller, but the dark clouds did not disperse, it was dark early, the two of them had some dinner at random, the weather was still a little stuffy, Jinwen half-opened the door, weaving cloth in the house, Wang Rui took the sand table and sat next to her to practice calligraphy, this sand table is still Wang Yuanshan watched him practice words and no paper and pen, made for him, the sand used to practice words, Jinwen also deliberately sifted a few times with a sieve to select fine sand.

Wang Rui smoothed the sand table, used the branch as a pen, and the writing was already quite decent, and Xiao Hei was lazily lying at Jinwen's feet as usual.

Suddenly, the little black ears moved, and Gollum stood up, and ran out of the door and screamed.

"Who?" Wang Rui asked, there was no sound outside, Xiao Hei screamed a few times and suddenly whimpered, and there was no sound.

"Blackie, come back, Blackie." Jin Wen shouted twice, but Xiao Hei didn't respond.

Wang Rui felt a little strange, put down the sand table and ran out to look, just walked out of the door, saw Xiao Hei lying on the mud under the eaves, stunned left A stream of air hit, he instinctively jumped to the right of the door A step, only to see a man wearing black, I don't know what to draw a lot of holes on the clothes, standing there to see Wang Rui avoided, surprised, not much to say, and slapped it again, Wang Rui followed Wang Yuanshan to practice boxing and feet since he was a child, and followed the mountain to hunt, his skills are natural and flexible.

"Who are you?"

"What are you doing at my house?"

Wang Rui asked repeatedly, the man couldn't catch him for a while, Jinwen heard the messy sound outside, picked up the oil lamp and came out to check.

"Arwen, don't come out." As soon as Wang Rui's words fell, Jin Wen screamed, there was actually a person on the right side of the door, also dressed in black, leaning against the wall without sound, Wang Rui didn't pay attention just now, Jin Wen just stepped out of the house, the man grabbed her with one hand and covered her mouth with the other, "We don't want to hurt people." The man's voice was deep but elegant.

Wang Rui stopped throwing a rat trap, and the man who attacked him also stopped: "Who are you?" What are you going to do? Let go of my sister first. ”

"Little brother, don't worry, we don't want to hurt people, we just want to borrow your house to hide from the pursuers." The man who still held Jinwen hostage spoke, seeing that the clothes on his arms were neat and not broken compared to the courtyard in the courtyard, the person stood behind Jinwen, he couldn't see anything else, and his face was hidden in the dark.

Wang Rui took advantage of the light coming from the house to see that among the two people, the one standing in the courtyard was more sturdy, about twenty or thirty years old, and although the person holding Jinwen could not see his face clearly, he felt relatively young.

At this time, there was a chaotic sound from far away at the entrance of the village, and I saw dozens of torches, reflecting the village entrance like the day, and the sound was faintly inaudible.

The two of them were a little anxious when they saw the bright light, the young hand that covered Jinwen's mouth tightened again, Jinwen felt that he was going to be covered and cut off, he didn't care that the other party was a man, and he pulled off the hand covering his mouth, "If you want to hide from people, hide quickly, my house is such a big place, you can see where to hide yourself." ”

"Yes, you let go of my sister, or I'll take you to hide in Beishan Mountain?" Wang Ruiti yì to.

"It's okay on the mountain, it's inevitable to be seen when you walk on the road." The young man said a word, I don't know what he signaled, the person in the courtyard suddenly became difficult, and rushed towards Wang Rui as fast as lightning, Wang Rui opened his mouth and just wanted to speak, but he was defenseless, and he didn't expect that while he was talking, the other party would suddenly be in trouble, and he felt that something fell into his mouth, and it melted in his mouth, with a sweet taste.

"Little brother, offended, you took my medicine, if there is no antidote, you will be cured in twelve hours."

"Brother Huzi, how are you?" Jin Wen pulled away the hand that restrained him and rushed over.

"Awen, it's okay, I don't think so."

Jin Wen felt that Wang Rui should not be injured when he heard the voice, but when he heard this person's words, he meant that he had given poison to Brother Huzi, and said angrily: "I have already promised to borrow your place to hide, why do you want to give my brother poison?" ”

"Little girl, where can you hide from people in your house, naturally you are more familiar with it. What if we hide and you sell us? Or if we are found, you can stay out of it, and there is no complicity in it. The man said slowly.

Jinwen bit her lip, she didn't think about betraying her, in case these two people have accomplices, it will be dangerous to find revenge, but looking at the village mouth, she plans to pull Brother Huzi out as long as they hide well, even if they are searched out, it is their own bad luck, as long as they say that they must see that there is no one in their house, secretly hide in, then the pursuers have nothing to say, dare to pursue so openly, those pursuers must be from the imperial court.

Now that Brother Hu Zi has been fed poison, these two people must not be arrested. The torches at the entrance of the village tended to disperse, so they had to be let into the house first.

Looking at the lights, the young man and Jin Wen both sighed, and it turned out to be the people they saw in the pavilion of Puji Temple.

The boy was no longer as chic as he was in the temple, his face was a little pale, and there were blood stains on the clothes in front of him, so he should have been injured, so he couldn't hide in the mountains.

The guard felt frightened when he saw it in Puji Temple, he didn't dare to look at it more, he didn't recognize it in the courtyard just now, and he only saw that his clothes were torn in a few places, and it seemed that even if he was injured, it was only a minor injury.

"Little girl, it's really a place in life where you don't meet, and you meet again." The young man said with a smile.

Jin Wen rolled his eyes in a rare childish way, he was unlucky when he met it, that little guy didn't follow, did he die? At first glance, he is not a good person, he deserves to die, Jin Wen thought secretly.

This young man is half a head taller than Wang Rui, about five or six feet, Wang Rui is five feet tall, he is already tall among his peers in the village at his age, and the guard is seven feet tall, such a big man, it is really not easy to find a place to hide.

Wang Rui saw that the boy was still pulling Jinwen after entering the house, and approached the previous hand knife, the man instinctively withdrew his hand and let go of Jinwen, Wang Rui hurriedly pulled Jinwen behind him.

"Little brother, the pursuers are coming, where are you going to let us hide?" The young man asked Wang Rui politely, but his eyes looked at Jinwen.

These two brothers and sisters, the elder brother is loyal and honest at first glance, and the younger sister looks knowledgeable, but her eyes are smart, and she has an idea at a glance, and her eyes are smart but clear, not cunning.

"My house is such a big place, you must be found hiding in the house, just two places, one in the well in the courtyard, and the other in the chicken coop in the west corner of the courtyard, you can see for yourself." Jin Wenjian said, it is best for them to dislike these two places and leave by themselves.

"Childe can't go into the water." The guard said hurriedly.

If you can't go into the water, you can only hide in the chicken coop? In fact, when she said that the well was only deliberately embarrassing them, the water in the well was to drink, so she didn't want them to hide inside.

"Little girl, how do you think you can hide?" The boy looked at Jinwen's narrow eyes, and knew that she was suspected of embarrassing the two of them, but it was an extraordinary period and he couldn't take care of it.

Jin Wen looked at the guard's appearance, rolled his eyes, and said, "I have a foolproof way, Brother Huzi, you take a bundle of straw from our West House," and then turned to the boy and said, "Take off your coat, it will rain on the side of the chicken coop, and it will be a little dirty, can you?" ”

"It's important to live." The boy was not verbose, he took off his coat neatly, and he was dressed in tight black inside.

Although Wang Rui didn't know what Jinwen was going to do, he quickly found the straw, and the two worked together to tie a scarecrow, and then put on the coat, which looked very much like a person from a distance.

"You carry this straw man on your back and hide in the ridge outside the house first, do you see? The back of the yard is turned out to smear and walk, and others can't see it. Jin Wen pointed out the place to the guard, "When you go out, you will hide, and see that the lights in my yard are bright, and those people have searched for you, so you will run to the west mountain, and hide in the mountain." ”

The guard nodded in understanding.

"When you get to the mountain, take the scarecrow apart, take the clothes warm, the mountain road is muddy, the dismantled straw can be used to step on the feet, you try not to leave footprints, people will not find you. The west mountain is very large, and I look at the torches at the entrance of the village, which does not look like hundreds of people. If you lure people away, they won't search for other places. ”

"Good way, thank you, you must take care of my son-in-law." The guard had commanded, and the man was going to leave.
