No. 301 Into the Tiger's Den 4

"No wonder the little girl is so particular about eating." The old beggar said.

Yun Xi grinned and thought that if he didn't eat mice, he was particular about food, and out of curiosity, Yun Xi asked again: "Old man, didn't the king confiscate the landlord's land recently and distribute it to the people according to the head?" Have you not been allotted land? Why are you still begging everywhere? ”

"Little girl, don't you know, although the land has been allocated to us, but the land is only seedlings now, and we are still hungry."

"Then when you come out to beg, who will take charge of the land?" Yun Xi asked.

"The women were tending the fields at home, and we kept some rations for them, and we went out to beg. We don't have enough food at home, and we'll go back when it's time for the harvest. ”

"Grandpa, don't eat that thing anymore, it's not clean, here are a few pennies for you to use to buy some food and go home!" Yun Xi said to the two of them.

"Little girl, what should you do if you give us the money, I heard that you are going to Jelu City, and there is still some distance to Yelu City." The old man asked.

"I still have some snacks to satisfy my hunger on the road, and when I get to Yelu City, I will go to my aunt's house."

"Then thank you so much little girl, we will definitely repay the little girl for her kindness if we have the opportunity in the future." After speaking, the old beggar took a few pennies from Yun Xi's hand, arched his hand at Yun Xi, and pulled the little beggar out of the temple gate.

Maya Xuelian said anxiously, "Sister Xi, why did you give them the money?" We still have hundreds of miles to go,"

"Don't we still have snacks?" Yun Xi said with a smile.

"Sister Xi, I'm not not allowed to save people, I'm just telling you that you shouldn't expose your wealth, otherwise you will invite disaster."

"Not really! Just a few pennies. Yun Xi said with a wink.

"Alright, let's get out of here!" Xue Lian said.

Yun Xi felt a little hungry, took out a snack from his arms and walked out of the temple door with Xue Lian while eating, Yun Xi accidentally found that two people sneakily followed behind him and Xue Lian, and hurriedly whispered in Xue Lian's ear: "Xiaolian, someone is following us." ”

Xue Lian looked at the back and said, "Sister Xi, it seems that the two of you are not good people, they betrayed us." ”

"Well, it looks like I'm a farmer this time, and I'm going to be bitten by a snake." Yun Xi suddenly remembered the story of "The Farmer and the Snake", and said with a twitch at the corner of her mouth.

"Sister Xi, what are you talking about snakes, we have to find a way to get rid of them quickly."

"So how do you get rid of them?" Yun Xi asked.

"I don't know." Xue Lian pouted and said.

"Sister Lian, don't be angry, I won't dare to do this stupid thing next time." Yun Xi saw that Xue Lian pouted and was unhappy, and hurriedly coaxed.

"I don't blame you, you are also kind enough to help them, I didn't expect them to take revenge, people like this should dig a pit and bury them alive."

"You're right, at the moment we can only go to crowded places, don't give them a chance to get close to us, and then pick up the plane and escape. Yun Xi said.

The two walked and walked, Yun Xi saw a restaurant in front of him, and he was about to go in with Xuelian, but he was stopped by the shopkeeper and reprimanded: "The two beggars who seem to be, hurry up and get out, we don't have dinner here." ”

Yun Xi took out a few copper plates and slapped them into his hand and said, "Get us a few baked cakes." ”

Seeing the rich shopkeeper, Xiao Er said happily: "Wait a minute, the hospitable officer." After a while, a few baked cakes were held with oiled paper and stuffed into Yunxi's hands.

Yun Xi looked at the baked cakes and said to the shopkeeper, "Second brother, do you have a back door here?" After speaking, he took out a few pennies and stuffed them into the small second-hand store store.

The little boy saw the money and hurriedly kicked the money into his arms and said, "Some guest officers, the little one will take you over." ”

After speaking, he brought Yun Xi and Xue Lian to the back door.

After coming out, Yun Xi said to Xue Lian, "Quick, we have to change our clothes." After speaking, he pulled Snow Lotus into a cloth village.

When the owner of the cloth village saw a couple named Hanako coming in, he hurriedly said angrily: "Get out quickly, we don't give charity here, you will affect the business of my shop here." ”

Yun Xi hurriedly explained: "The shopkeeper is like this, we want to buy two sets of clothes for men. ”

"Buy the clothes that men wear, girls, we only sell cloth here, not clothes."

"Then can you get us two sets of men's clothes, Yun Xi took out a silver ingot and put it in front of him.

"If the girl doesn't dislike it, my son's clothes can be given to the little girl to wear."

"Don't dislike it, go get it!" Yun Xi said anxiously.

After a while, the shopkeeper of the cloth village brought two sets of men's clothes, asked Yun Xi and Xue Lian to change into them, and combed the headdress, Yun Xi asked Xue Lian: "Sister Lian, do you know how to ride a horse?" ”

"Of course, my father was a soldier, and he taught me how to ride a horse every time I came home." Xue Lian said.

"That's great, we can go to the horse market and buy a horse, won't it be much faster if you ride me to Yelu City?" Yun Xi said.

"Sister Xi, do you still have money to buy a horse?" Xue Lian asked worriedly.

"Don't worry! Sister Xi, I'll make money. ”

Yun Xi and Xue Lian went to the horse market to buy a horse, and Xue Lian rode a horse and took Yun Xi to ride the horse and whip all the way to Yelu City.

Afraid that Yun Xi would fall off the horse, Xue Lian asked Yun Xi to sit in front of her and grab the reins with her, and when the two of them walked through a dense forest, Yun Xi saw a group of people in front of her in the middle of the road.

Then I heard the crowd shouting, "I opened this mountain, I planted this tree, and you must pass by here to buy road wealth, and if you want to pass, you must leave the money." Several people shouted at the same time.

"We don't have any money". Yun Xi said.

"I don't have the money to leave people behind and work as coolies for us." One of them said.

Another said, "You can't be a woman if you're so white, right?" ”

"I look like it, whatever, don't you know if you get it down and inspect the goods?" After speaking, they surrounded Yunxi and Xuelian together.

Seeing that a few people had bad intentions, Xuelian hurriedly took out a knife and slashed it on the horse's ear, the horse was hurt and began to run wildly, several people saw that Yunxi and Xuelian were going to escape, and hurriedly took out a bow and arrow to chase and shoot, Xuelian was hit by two arrows, and at first she could still hold on, and then her consciousness gradually blurred, Yunxi let him lie on his back, hold on to the reins, and run wildly all the way, and finally rushed to a village in the dark.

Yun Xi let Xue Lian lie on the horse's back, and inquired all the way about the residence of the village doctor, when Yun Xi helped Xue Lian off the horse, Xue Lian looked at Yun Xi and said weakly: "Sister Xi, you don't have to spend money on me, I can't do it." ”

"No, I must cure you, you are because I am injured, and I have a troubled conscience if I don't cure you." Yun Xi helped Xue Lian to the hospital bed.

The doctor looked at Xuelian's injury and said to Yun Xi: "Little boy, your friend is very seriously injured, I'm afraid there is not much time left, if you have anything to say, hurry up and ask him!" ”

"Take the arrow off her back and give her medicine." Yun Xi shouted.

"Little boy, he is a poisonous arrow, the toxin has penetrated deep into the blood, there is no cure, you can live for a few hours if you don't pull out the arrow, once you pull out the arrow, I'm afraid you will die immediately!"
