Chapter 104: Bathing by the lake in the middle of the night
Early in the morning, I heard Ergouzi and Goudan talking and laughing loudly next to me. Seeing the two of them laughing so happily, I couldn't help but be curious.
"What's so funny?" As soon as I asked, Ergouzi immediately came to me and said, "Hehe, did you see the "mouse eyes" this morning?" ”
"No, what's wrong?" I don't know who is called Mouse's Eye, and how can I pay attention to him.
"Haha was fine yesterday, today he's missing an ear! Haha Someone asked him why he didn't have an ear, and he said he was bitten off by a rat last night. Tell me, isn't this cannibalism? Haha" After the second dog finished speaking, the dog Dan also laughed on the side.
I sneered in my heart: It turns out that he is called Mouse Eye, okay, I remember him. If he dares to come next time, I'll ask him for a rat's claw.
"Girl, how do you burn pork today?" Uncle Liu looked at me and pointed to the chopped pork pieces and said.
"There is already some rice today, so let's boil it into a thicker porridge, and then put it under the porridge by the pork, remember to be thicker, and don't let the lard float on the porridge noodles." I said slowly, Uncle Liu and the others agreed, and began to prepare lunch.
I stood at the kitchen door and looked at the entrance sentry not far away. I suddenly turned around and said to Uncle Liu: "Uncle Liu, what kind of mine did our mine open at the beginning, why did I only see everyone digging stones but not the ore that came out." ”
"It's a gold mine...... Shhh, you can't talk about it, Mao Xusan and they usually don't allow us to say it. But I've been staying for a long time, so I know that there is a gold mine under those stones, and every time there is gold, Mao Xu San and others secretly dig it out at night and then send it out quietly. Uncle Liu lowered his voice and whispered.
"Yes, I've only seen it once, and that time I only saw it when I had diarrhea in the middle of the night when it was convenient to go out, and it was already late at night." Dogan recalled.
It turned out to be a gold mine, so it's no wonder that so much thought went into managing this mine.
I remembered the airtight, iron-walled carriage in which I was being held, and by the way, it must have been the one used to transport gold. I don't know how many such carriages there are...... It seems that the owner of this mine can almost be said to be rich and rival the country.
No wonder the rooms where I was held were so magnificently furnished, backed by such a large gold mine.
Anyway, I've been locked up in this mine for several days, and I can tolerate the rest, but I really can't stand the lack of a place to take a shower.
I patted the thick dirt ash on my gauze skirt in frustration and sat down on the straw pile.
Zhang San is a clever boy, he came to my side and whispered: "Sister Baozi, let me tell you that there is a small lake at the back of the mine, and the water there is very clean, but you can only slip through it alone until you get it in the middle of the night." He pointed to himself and said, "I've been there before, but it's not the dead of night, it's weird, and I don't dare to go there anymore." ”
"It's better to be scared to death than dirty, shhh, you are not allowed to tell anyone, I'll sneak over tonight to have a look." As soon as I said that, he made a gesture to close his mouth.
"Hehe, good boy, thanks." I said with a hard pat on the shoulder.
I have been looking forward to it all day, and finally it is the dead of night. Except for the sentry post in front of the mountain, the rest of the place has long been silent.
I sneaked to the back mountain, hey, Zhang San, this stinky boy didn't lie to me, there really is a small lake.
I couldn't wait to kick off my shoes and slowly put my foot in the water. Ah, it's so icy...... How can this be washed?
By the moonlight, I also saw a few small fish jumping in the lake. Who said that there are people here, hehe, the scenery is not bad.
It's just that it's too cold, and it's not good to swim around in the lake, so I have to take off my clothes and scrub my body with a strip of cloth.
I was taking off my outermost gauze skirt when I heard a slight noise behind me. After I had internal strength, my hearing was much better than that of ordinary people, and I found that it was the sound of someone gently stepping on a fallen leaf.
Could it be that deadly rat's eye last night? How dare he follow me here?
The anger in my eyes was already blazing, and I subconsciously clenched my palms, and when he got a little closer, yes, a little closer, I turned around and slapped him hard. Then he was thrown directly into the lake, and even if he couldn't drown, he would freeze to death.
I heard that the person behind me was close enough, and I immediately turned around and slapped it, but to my surprise, the man was also a master, he grabbed my hand and pulled it hard from himself, I didn't stand firm, and pounced forward.
I felt like I had fallen into a warm embrace, and I couldn't help but get even angrier, and I was scolding when I heard a familiar voice.
"Lady, although I ran to this barren mountain in the middle of the night to save you, you don't have to jump into my arms in disheveled clothes to express your gratitude." Ouyang Deyuan's face looked even more handsome in the moonlight.
"Xianggong...... It's you? You...... How did you know I was here? I looked at him in amazement.
He hugged me harder and said, "Lady, if it weren't for the cold, I really don't want to remind you to get dressed." ”
I smiled slightly, stood up and put the gauze skirt back on.
"Hehe, you haven't answered me yet." I jumped up next to him and asked him.
He stretched out his hands as if he was begging for a hug before answering, and I had to lean obediently into his arms. His arms were so warm and comfortable.
He stroked my long hair lovingly and said, "My spies have seen your gold bracelet, so I can track it down here." This place is so secluded, I never knew it existed. ”
"Deyuan, I can't leave yet, I want to know who arrested me, and I want to know why he arrested me." I looked up into his eyes and said.
"No, I will never leave you alone, I will find out what you said, you must go back with me today. I'm really scared...... I'm afraid of losing you. I was moved by his affection, and I rested my head gently on his shoulder.
"But...... This is really a good opportunity. If I leave now, it will take us more time to understand something. I muttered softly.
Seeing that I insisted on doing this, he took a step back and said, "Okay, but I'm going to stay and protect you secretly, and if I say I'm leaving, you'll promise to leave with me right away, okay?" ”
"Okay, okay, I promise you." I nodded happily. "Lady...... You looked so beautiful when you undressed in the moonlight just now. He whispered in my ear.
"You big pervert, don't show up sooner and peek behind me." I poked his forehead hard with my finger and laughed.
"Hehe, the beauty undresses, don't look at it, don't look at it, besides, why do you usually give me such a chance to peek?" He also said with a look of grievance.
"Haha, then I'll give you this opportunity today, do you dare to ask for it?" I jumped out of his arms and shouted loudly on purpose.
He smiled and said: "The peony flower is dead, and it is also romantic to be a ghost, so you can let the horse come, lady." ”
