Ling'er asked the coachman to move Daqiang and the tenth sister to the carriage, calculate the time, it should be past the time by now! Looking around, the countryside under the moonlight is as calm as a lake as far as the eye can see, and the fireflies dance leisurely in the fields, but there is no one in sight!

Alas, the scenery is very beautiful, but this black light is blinding, just relying on this little moonlight, how easy is it to find someone? Not to mention the fact that the eight children went in different directions, where did they separate? I don't know which way to go, how do I find it?

Ling'er looked at the faint shadow in the distance in a daze, the coachman put out the fire, cleaned up, returned to the carriage, saw Ling'er in a daze and didn't speak, but took out something from the cloth bag next to her and threw it at Ling'er, smashing her to a spirit!

"What? Do? Ling'er came to her senses, turned her head and saw the coachman holding a wine bag in one hand and a chicken leg in the other, and his stomach was gurgling. She hugged her stomach in embarrassment, almost forgetting that she hadn't eaten since noon!

"Gollum~~~" Ling'er turned around and saw that the tenth sister was also holding her stomach and looking at herself pitifully with a red face. Ling'er paused, touched her head with a smile and said, "Tenth sister, are you hungry?" Is it okay for my sister to find you something to eat? ”

The tenth sister blinked, "Sister? ”

Ling'er was stunned for a moment, and said embarrassedly: "Hehe, that ...... Tenth sister, you... What do you want to eat? ”

The tenth sister looked at the chicken leg in the coachman's hand and swallowed her saliva, Ling'er looked at the coachman, this ...... I'm really embarrassed to speak. The coachman seemed to sense their gaze, glanced back at Ling'er, and said lightly: "It's in the bag!" ”

"Huh? What the? ”

The coachman looked at Ling'er's hand, and then she realized that the thing that the coachman threw at her was a cloth bag, she quickly opened it, and inside were several small packets wrapped in oiled paper, including chicken legs, steamed buns, and beef, which looked like the men's dry food and snacks. Ling'er divided the things and gave the tenth sister chicken legs, Daqiang beef, and only nibbled on a big steamed bun.

After eating and drinking, Ling'er thanked the coachman and asked tentatively, "Uncle, what do you ......say?" How can I find other cousins? ”

The coachman didn't answer, just drank his wine, Ling'er was a little embarrassed, the coachman was the Ding family's family, and he had no friendship with himself, and he was already very face-saving to accompany himself to find someone to find in the middle of the night, if he let the family help him turn around all night like a headless fly, even if the coachman had no opinion, she felt that she didn't want to go, but if she didn't look for it, she was worried, what should I do?

When Ling'er was hesitating, she suddenly heard a buzzing cry in the carriage, and when she looked back, she saw that the tenth sister was sitting next to Daqiang, crying with her hands and knees in her hands! Ling'er was startled and hurriedly climbed into the carriage: "Tenth sister, what's wrong?" Is Daqiang bad? ”

She came to Da Qiang's side, and when she saw Da Qiang closing his eyes, she sighed in her heart, no, she just ate a few slices of beef, and she ...... so soon

"Let me see!" The coachman pushed aside Ling'er, took Da Qiang's hand and touched the pulse, probed Da Qiang's snort, and looked at his eyelids.

"How? Uncle, he's strong... Is he ......"

"He's asleep!"

"Huh? Fall asleep! ”

The coachman exited the carriage and saw that the tenth sister was still crying sadly, so he suddenly reached out and grabbed the tenth sister out! Looking at it again, the tenth sister has been lifted high by him! Ling'er was startled and shouted, "Uncle, what are you doing?" She... She's still young, she won't cry after a while, you... Put her down! ”

The coachman didn't react, and looked up at the ten sisters who were lifted into the air with a straight face. Perhaps the tenth sister was frightened, and looked down at the coachman with wide eyes in horror, forgetting to cry, and the tears on her cheeks were still shining slightly in the moonlight!

Ling'er was extremely nervous, for fear that the coachman would be angry and throw the tenth sister out. The coachman was silent all the way, and he didn't care how he spoke, and at first glance he was a person with a strange personality. I thought he was a good person, but how did he become like this in a blink of an eye? Could it be that he has a natural quirk of hating children? Or do you go insane when you hear your child cry?

The more Ling'er thought about it, the more frightened she became, and raised her hand and slowly approached: "Uncle! You... Don't get excited, Tenth Sister... Ten sister, she is a good child, she rarely cries, but today she suddenly separated from her cousins, and she felt sad, so... So some can't be controlled! Uncle, you... You put her down first, and I promise she won't cry again!

Tenth sister, tell your uncle quickly, you won't cry again! Say it! ”

The coachman frowned, turned his head to look at Ling'er, and then looked up at the tenth sister and said dryly: "Laugh!" ”

Ling'er was stunned, and the tenth sister was even more at a loss, "Uncle, what did you say?" ”

The coachman's brows furrowed even tighter, and his face, which was not very 'kind', became more serious, and at first glance, it seemed that there was still a bit of a fierce and evil taste! He waited for a long time, and when he saw that the tenth sister didn't react, his eyes widened and he raised his voice and commanded fiercely: "Laugh!" ”

The tenth sister shook her body, opened her mouth, and cried loudly! The coachman stared at the big mouth of the tenth sister with a straight face, and there seemed to be a little puzzlement in his eyes? Ling'er was afraid that he would get angry and throw the tenth sister, so he said good things anxiously on the side but didn't dare to approach.

Suddenly, the coachman threw it up, the little body of the tenth sister flew into the air, and Ling'er, who was interceding, choked, and looked at the little body of the tenth sister in a daze under the illumination of the moonlight and starlight. The tenth sister was thrown out! It's going to be broken...... Before she could react, she suddenly saw Ling'er's small body fall down again, falling straight on top of the coachman's head!

"Ah~~~ I'm back!" Ling'er screamed loudly, the coachman looked up, watching the little body of the tenth sister getting closer and closer, seeing that she was about to fall to the ground and fall into a meatloaf, the coachman reached out to take it, and the tenth sister fell firmly in his hand!

What's going on? This pervert wants to scare the tenth sister to death and then throw it away? No, it's cruel! Such a pitiful, beautiful and innocent little sister, how can he do it! He must not be allowed to succeed, he must be stopped!

Ling'er's head was hot, and she screamed and jumped up and hugged the coachman's arm: "Let go, you bastard, pervert!" Let go of the tenth sister, she is only four years old, if you cry, you will fall to death her, you pervert, you murderer! ”

Ling'er hung on the coachman's arm and kicked and scolded, only to find that the owner of this arm was motionless, hanging on it like a dead leaf that could not fall off a branch, no matter how he struggled, he couldn't move the other party at all! No, the other party is a master, and it can't be tough, you have to find some tools to borrow!

She let go and retreated to scratch around, and suddenly heard the coachman's deep voice: "What are you looking for?" ”

Ling'er was stunned, grabbed something and threw it at the coachman, the coachman tilted his head slightly, and the white thing whistled past his ears with a strong wind, and flew straight ahead, disappearing into the darkness, and did not hear the sound of falling for a long time!

The coachman looked surprised, he reached out and touched his sideburns, spread his hand, and there was an extra poke of hair on it! The coachman narrowed his eyes slightly, and when he looked up at Ling'er again, there was a hint of danger in his eyes, "Who are you?" ”

Ling'er was frightened by the sudden burst of murderous aura from his body, and took two steps back, until he grabbed the carriage door and stabilized, "I... I am who I am, you... You let go of the tenth sister! There is a list of skills... Singled out! ”

The coachman didn't answer, squinted dangerously at her, Ling'er pretended to be calm and looked at her, the two confronted each other for a long time, God knows that Ling'er's back clothes were all wet with sweat, and her whole body was so stiff that she couldn't shake!

"Big... Uncle! A cat-like call sounded next to him, the coachman's eyes flashed, he slowly collected his murderous aura, and turned his head slightly to look at the tenth sister.

The tenth sister said pitifully with a white face: "Uncle, my brother is a good person!" ”

The coachman glanced back at Ling'er, gently put the tenth sister into the carriage, and said with his hands around his chest: "Girl, what kind of kung fu are you practicing?" ”

Ling'er was stunned for a moment, turned her head to look at the tenth sister, and then looked at the coachman, he was obviously talking to himself! Ling'er looked down at her outfit, was she talking to herself?

"Don't look around, it's you!"

Ling'er raised her head in surprise and pointed to her nose: "Me?" ”

"Who are you not?"

"I... I haven't practiced any kung fu! ”

The coachman squinted his eyes again, and Ling'er hurriedly said: "Really, uncle, I really don't know any kung fu, but I just have more strength!" ”

The coachman stared at Ling'er for a long time, and suddenly, Ling'er felt a few white lights flash in front of her, and when she came back to her senses, all her hair was scattered, and a few strands fell down lightly! Ling'er was stunned for a moment, reached out to touch it, and then realized when her hair was cut shoulder-high! She looked up in surprise and saw that the coachman was in the same posture as before, as if he had not moved at all!

"You... You... Why cut my hair! ”

The coachman looked at Ling'er puzzled, "You...... Don't really know kung fu? ”

"Of course, if I want to know kung fu, I still need to ask you for help?"

The coachman pinched the few strands of hair that fell from his sideburns and looked at it, looked at Ling'er strangely, was silent for a moment, and jumped onto the carriageway: "Take care of the little girl, let's go!" He flicked his horse, and the carriage began to move along the country road.

Ling'er was stunned in the carriage for a long time before she reacted, she turned around to look at the tenth sister, the girl was actually asleep! Ling'er let out a long breath, helped her strand her hair, and whispered: "Little girl, you almost died, you know?" ”

"Humph!" The coachman snorted coldly, Ling'er looked at the back of the coachman, thought about it, climbed over and sat in front of the carriage door, and asked tentatively: "Uncle, are you ...... I hate children crying? ”

The coachman's body stiffened, and he glared back at Ling'er: "No! ”

"Huh?" Ling'er was a little surprised, not only because of his answer, but also because he had said so much along the way before, and this person didn't talk, why did he suddenly become interested?

Ling'er rolled her eyes, it was better to ask clearly, so as not to misunderstand: "That... Why did the uncle throw the tenth sister out? ”

"Nope!"

"Huh? …… You're ......"

"Tease her!"

"What?" Ling'er couldn't believe her ears, she asked tentatively: "Uncle said that he just threw the tenth sister out just to make the tenth sister laugh?" ”

"Yes!"

Ling'er opened her mouth in surprise, her mind turned around a few times, am I wrong to blame this uncle? Could it be that he is indeed a good person, but he can't laugh and is not good at words? When he saw the tenth sister crying, he took her out and tossed her to play?

Ordinary children's children cry, and indeed some adults will make children happy like this! But not all children like to be thrown, not to mention that the tenth sister is such a timid and timid little girl doll, thrown so high, if it were me, I would definitely be scared! Ling'er twitched the corners of her mouth, she really wanted to remind this uncle that you must not use this way to tease children in the future, especially girls!

The misunderstanding was resolved, and Ling'er's understanding of the coachman uncle took a 180-degree turn. She looked back at the tenth sister and Daqiang, and saw that they were sleeping soundly, and there were not many empty seats in the carriage, so she simply climbed out of the carriage and sat next to the coachman, and said excitedly: "Hehe, uncle, you scared me to death just now, and I thought you hated the tenth sister crying and wanted to throw her out!" ”

The coachman glanced back at her and said lightly, "No!" Like! ”

"Like? …… You said you like Ten Sisters? Ling'er blinked in surprise, and the coachman didn't answer, which means yes? She tilted her head and thought for a while: "Ah, I know, the uncle's daughter is as old as the tenth sister, right?" ”

The coachman suddenly lifted the reins, and the carriage neighed a few times to stop, but Ling'er didn't pay attention, threw himself forward, and almost fell off the car! Luckily, she grabbed the door and shook it a few times and pulled back!

"Uncle, what are you doing? Why don't you say it first if you want to park! After Ling'er finished speaking, he suddenly noticed that the coachman's expression was different, and he saw his face blue and gloomy eyes staring ahead, as if there was his mortal enemy standing in front of him!

Ling'er looked ahead, the road was empty, there was nothing! Could it be... Could it be that this uncle is crazy again? She couldn't help but shrink back!

I don't know how long later, the coachman suddenly said in a deep voice: "My daughter is four years old! ”

Ling'er looked down at the tenth sister, the tenth sister is also four years old, well-behaved and cute, no wonder...... She was about to speak, when she heard the coachman say again: "She was just full moon, and she was taken away by that slut!" ”

Ling'er choked, and quickly swallowed the words back when they came to her mouth! Looking at the coachman's bitter and hateful appearance, I don't know who the slut in his mouth is? No, no, now is not the time to gossip, this person is not an ordinary person, if you accidentally step on someone's sore spot, you will die!

The carriage stopped for a long time on the country road in the field, Ling'er almost fell asleep, felt the surroundings swaying, and opened her eyes to see the carriage start to move again! She rubbed her eyes and made sure that the surrounding area was still full of rice fields, and the sound of frogs and insects was high and low.

"Uncle, where are we?"

"On the way!"

"Ugh! Uncle, why don't we find a place to rest, and then ask someone when it's dawn? ”

The coachman said lightly: "No need, enter the city in half an hour!" ”

"Into the city? No, uncle, my cousins......"

"They are not related to you, why do you have to look for them?"

Ling'er was stunned for a moment, and stammered: "No... No, they're all my cousins......"

"You made a big fuss in the city yesterday and hurt the son of the Jia family, and the Jia family will not let you go!"

Ling'er jumped up suddenly: "You... You...... Hehe, uncle, don't talk nonsense, I... I didn't have ......"

"Don't hide it, those people in the city are looking for you!"

Hearing the coachman's determined tone, Ling'er, who originally wanted to defend herself, calmed down, she stared at the coachman's back motionlessly, but her mind turned back and forth. Ling'er thought for a long time and said slowly: "Since Uncle knows our identity, why is he still helping me find someone?" ”

"Heh, what do you have to do with the Jia family? I was entrusted by the owner to send you home, and I can only go back to my life when you find someone, helping you is helping myself! Ling'er was silent, this was the reason she gave when she asked him for help before.

"That'...... We still have eight companions......

"No way!"

"Why? If you don't help me find someone, I won't go back! ”

"Whatever, I'll take you back to Ding's Mansion and hand it over to Old Shentou, and let him send someone to send you!"

"What's wrong with you? The man wants a promise, and you have agreed! ”

"I didn't say anything!"

"You ......"

The two were silent for a long time, and the carriage had to get out of the dirt road by the moonlight and lights, onto the official road, and then turn to the direction of the county seat! Is he really going back to the city? Ling'er was a little anxious, and said in a soft voice: "Uncle, those children are all fatherless and motherless orphans, the oldest is only eleven years old, they are all good children, you can help!" ”

"What about you finding them?"

Ling'er paused, "I'...... I can take them home! ”

"Aren't you afraid that the Jia family will come to your door?"

"This ......" Ling'er bowed her head, indeed, she hadn't thought of a way to settle the children, if she brought them all back, so many people would be discovered by the Jia family sooner or later, and the children and her whole family would suffer at that time!

"Don't do what you can't do!"

"But if you don't care about them, they will still be bullied, and if they are caught by the Jia family, it will be even worse!"

"Everyone has a fate, are you sure it's better to find them?"

"This ......" Ling'er was silent! She was deeply touched by the sentence that everyone has a life, there is no savior in this world, people will definitely encounter difficulties in life, this time I helped them, next time? Maybe they will have more opportunities after leaving, and it will be easier to achieve their dreams!

Ling'er sighed lightly and didn't speak, staring blankly at both sides of the official road, watching the scenery move back little by little.

Suddenly, Ling'er sat up straight and looked at the grass on the side of the road, "Wait! Uncle, park! ”

The carriage stopped, Ling'er stared at the grass just now, the coachman took advantage of the situation, hesitated slightly, jumped out of the carriage, and walked towards the grass! Ling'er sat in the car and saw the coachman standing by the grass, staring at the ground with his hands on his chest.

"Uncle, what's there? Do you see it clearly? ”

"People!"

"Ahh Ling'er hurriedly jumped out of the car and rushed over in a few steps. If you look closely, a figure on the ground is shrunk into a ball and lying there motionless, looking like a young child!

"Uncle, hurry, save him!" Ling'er squatted down and wanted to help the child, but felt that the back collar was tight, and her body rose into the air.

"What? Put me down, put me down! Ling'er struggled with her limbs, and the coachman threw her aside and whispered, "Stand still!" ”

"Why? That kid is dying! Hurry up and save people! ”

"Don't move if you want to save him!" The coachman jerked from his waist, and a long sword was pulled out of nowhere. He stared at the child motionless for a while, and then suddenly raised his sword and stabbed the child!

"Ahh Ling'er screamed and covered her eyes, and after a while, she heard the coachman's voice: "Don't be stupid, bring the wine!" And the medicine box! ”

Ling'er opened her eyes and saw that the coachman was holding the child around her, and walked quickly towards the carriage. Ling'er was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly chased after him, "Uncle, what's wrong with this kid?" ”

The coachman put the child flat on the ground and removed the trouser legs, only to see that the child's legs were dark and swollen, obviously poisoned! The coachman was busy for a while, disinfected and bandaged with wine and herbs, fed the child a few pills, and stood up with his hands clapped.

Ling'er, who couldn't help, hurriedly handed over the sweat towel: "Uncle, this kid's whole body is swollen and blue, is he poisoned?" ”

"Yes, snake venom, you can't move for two hours!"

"Huh? Two hours! "Ling'er look at the sky, it's okay now, wait two more hours, it's just getting bright, and I'm going to spend the night here tonight!" Alas, it seems that those children really can't be found, maybe they have no chance with them!

Ling'er took the things that could be used out of the carriage, lit a bonfire beside it, ate some dry food, boiled water, and put some to feed the child.

She came to the child with a lantern, the light shone on the child's face, the blue and purple had faded by half, the swelling had disappeared somewhat, and she could finally see the child's facial features clearly! Ling'er stared at the child for a while, why did she feel a little familiar?

"Brother Nine! Nine Brothers! The tenth sister suddenly screamed twice and was about to jump off the car, but Ling'er hurriedly caught it. The tenth sister struggled a few times and threw herself at the child on the ground: "Brother Ning, Brother Ning!" What happened to you? Brother Ning, wake up! ”

Ling'er squatted down beside the tenth sister, Brother Ning? She carefully identified it for a long time, by the way, isn't this Ning Ba? Oh, my God! This is Ning Ba, I can't find it all over, but I actually met it here! How is he alone? The kid with him? It's a pity that Ning Ba is unconscious now, and he can't ask anything, so he can only wait for him to wake up.

Ling'er comforted the tenth sister and asked her to stay by Ning Ba's side and go back to the fire to boil water. Looking at the coachman who was still holding the wine bag and drinking endlessly, Ling'er sighed.

"Young age, sigh what!" The coachman was still in a light tone.

Ling'er glanced at him and said with a smile: "Uncle coachman, don't look at my young appearance, I'm actually thirty years old, believe it or not?" ”

The coachman paused, turned his head to look at Ling'er, smiled, and raised his head to take a few sips.

"Uncle, don't you believe it? I mean it! ”

The coachman shook his head amusedly: "You girl is so interesting!" ”

"Hey, hey, uncle has won the prize! Uncle, you see we've been together for a whole day, and I don't know your last name! Oh, by the way, my name is Bai Xiaowen, just call me Xiaowen! ”

"Huh!" The coachman laughed twice, not knowing what he meant, and after a long while, he said, "Punishment!"

"Righteousness? Good name, chivalrous and righteous, Uncle Xing is a hero at first glance! Uncle Xing, I don't hear your accent like you're from Cangping County, you have all the ability, why did you want to go to Dingfu to be a coachman? ”

Xingyi didn't answer, and after waiting for a while, he still didn't answer. Ling'er laughed dryly twice, and then changed the topic, but this sentence was tight-mouthed, no matter whether he asked about the Ding family, himself, or other people, he didn't answer, but when he talked about things related to children, he would occasionally pick up a few words.

However, from these words, Ling'er guessed and inferred, and probably knew that this daughter of Xingyi was taken away by a woman just a few days after she was born, and he tracked the woman's whereabouts to Cangping County, and has been looking for the whereabouts of the woman and his daughter in the past few years.

Alas, I didn't expect that a person with strong martial arts like Xingyi would also have such troubles! (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point (qidian.com) to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support, is my biggest motivation. )
