But at this moment, there was a commotion outside.

Ji Ji didn't care about raising her identity anymore, she walked to the head of the painting boat with the piano in her arms.

This time, she found that the dock was brightly lit. Xie Lang and the others obviously found something, and they were looking back one by one.

Ji Ji followed their gaze, only to see a clipper rushing over, on the clipper, a young man crossed his hand and shouted at Xie Lang and the others: "But where is Xie Jialangjun?" My lord said that if there is an emergency, I am afraid that I will not be able to come to Chibi, so I will wait for Lang Jun to get on the boat and go to the Youjiang County Wharf a hundred miles upstream to wait. ”

The young man seemed to have come in a hurry, and his voice was hurried and wheezing.

After listening to his words, Xie Lang turned around and whispered a few words to his friends, and after everyone nodded, Xie Lang waved his hand and motioned for the young man to step forward. So, the clipper docked the boat.

Seeing that Xie Lang was about to get on the clipper and leave, Ji Ji was stunned, in the night wind, she opened her mouth several times, wanting to call something, but finally fell silent.

At this moment, Xie Lang turned around.

Under the moonlight, in the light of the torches, Xie Lang's handsome face that people didn't dare to look at it directly, with a somewhat complicated look. After glaring at Ji Ji, he turned around and commanded.

Soon, a beautiful maid walked over with a pen and paper.

On the head of the painting boat, Xie Lang worked hard to write. After he finished writing, a strong man walked out from behind him, tied the piece of paper to the arrow, and shot it on Ji Ji's left side with a snap.

Then, Xie Lang crossed his hand towards Ji Ji through the distant lights, and in the river breeze, he behaved chicly, his eyebrows were clear, almost like a fairy among the gods. In a daze, he smiled at her, turned around and jumped onto the clipper.

It wasn't until the clipper left in a hurry carrying Xie Lang and his party that Sun Fu and the others came to their senses. Hurriedly pulled out the arrow, handed the paper to Ji Ji, and said depressedly: "What a coincidence! I knew that Xie Lang was walking so fast, so the girl didn't play any piano. ”

Ji Ji ignored him and walked to the bright light with the paper.

There were a few lines of elegant calligraphy written on the paper, "Qing is here at night, could it be that he came for the matter of Jingxian Zhuangjiayuan?" You don't have to worry too much, as early as that day, I had already instructed the Jing clan not to trouble you. ”

The writing is very simple, and the font is handsome and free in a hurry.

The moment she saw these lines, Ji Ji only felt full of joy, she lowered her head and blinked the wetness in her eyes, and secretly thought: He is really a good person!

For Ji Ji, it was almost a fear and worry that the sky was falling apart, but the noble man who only met her in Pingshui had already solved it for her. If she hadn't arrived tonight, I'd never have known that he had done such a thing for her.

Suddenly, an indescribable warmth and happiness welled up in my heart.

After being happy for a while, Ji Ji put away the note preciously, and she thought to herself: This is Xie Linlang's handwritten handwriting, I have long heard that whether it is Jiankang or Jingzhou's sister-in-law, they are extremely obsessed with him, and even the note he wrote casually, some people are willing to pay 100 gold to buy it. Well, for me, it's still a lot, and I'm going to put this note away with the treasures at home.

Seeing that Ji Ji was still depressed just now, this time she was smiling again, her expression was relaxed, Sun Fu and the others' eyes flashed, and Uncle Li asked happily: "Girl, is it solved?" ”

Ji Ji smiled back, nodded and said, "Well, the biggest difficulty is gone." ”

Speaking of this, she yawned and said happily: "Let's go, let's go to Chibi, and after a night's rest, we will go home tomorrow." ”

"Okay!" In the loud laughter of Uncle Li and the others, Ji Ji paid the balance owed to the two middle-aged scribes, ordered the painting boat to sail, and the group sailed happily towards the pier.

In the blink of an eye, the next day arrived.

Ji Ji's mind was halfway over, and she slept very soundly last night. When she woke up in the morning, she was not in a hurry to return to Jing County, so she took the guards to play in Chibi for a long time.

When Ji Ji's donkey cart set off, it was already noon. Because Sun Fu was quite familiar with this place, the group found a shortcut and rushed towards Jing County.

Because of sufficient rest, the group walked quickly, and after a while, they left Chibi and came to the official road between Chibi and Jingzhou City.

Ji Ji and his party walked on the mountain trail. Walking and walking, suddenly, there was a howl and cry from the official road below the mountain road.

Walking outside, hearing this kind of voice, everyone was stunned, Sun Fu and the others jumped off the donkey quickly, looked around vigilantly for a while, ran to Ji Xi's donkey cart, and whispered: "Girl, the voice is coming from the official road below, we had better go and see." ”

Ji Ji nodded, and she quickly ordered, "Shut the donkey's mouth, don't let them scream." When Lu Shen received her life, she jumped off the donkey cart, followed Sun Fu, and walked forward lightly. They walked through a bush and came to a col with a cliff where they could see what was happening below.

Just one glance, Ji Ji was taken aback.

There were five or six ox carts below, and the owner of the ox cart and the guards next to it added up to about fifty people. But these fifty or so people shrank into a ball at this moment, one by one with tears in their eyes, looking at the robbers in front of them in despair.

Yes, it was the robbers, about thirty or forty brave men, some with long knives in the cold light, and bows and arrows in their hands, pointing at them.

At this moment, Ji Ji let out a small exclamation.

Sun Fu hurriedly whispered, "Girl, what's wrong?" ”

Ji Ji said: "I know all those people. ”

Yes, she actually knew all the owners of the six ox carts, and the one of the ox carts was sitting in Jing Li, who had a two-sided relationship with her, and not far from Jing Li, was the sister-in-law named Ah Bi, and the other four ox carts were sitting in the family Lang Jun, who was following Jing Li last time.

It's just that, compared to the last time they met, these people were like fairies, at this moment, they were wolves to the extreme.

Jing Li shrunk into the corner of the oxcart, and was trembling with his maidservant, the sister-in-law named Abi was screaming with her mouth open, and the four family gentlemen were in tears, and their faces were as white as dirt. And the guards, who were supposed to be strong, were already lying on the ground one by one, begging the robbers for mercy.

Seeing this scene, Ji Ji said with a cold face: "There are only more than thirty or forty robbers, why don't they resist?" ”

On one side, Uncle Li's small voice came first, "The last time the old slave saw these nobles, he thought that if they encountered robbers, most of them would not be able to escape. In Ji Ji's puzzled gaze, Uncle Li whispered: "Girl, look, those little Langjun even have to be helped to walk, and those guards are also vain in their steps, although they are not short, but they speak as softly as their masters, and they know that they are all timid as rats at a glance." ”

Ji Ji nodded.

She pondered for a while, and then ordered in a low voice: "Uncle Li, you and Lu Shen go and move the drums out of the car." Without waiting for them to refute, she commanded: "The rest of the men, go and look for some stones on the left." Remember, the more stones, the better. ”

As soon as she said this, everyone knew that her girl had made up her mind to save people. Although they hesitated a little, after thinking about it, they still did not refute.

There are a lot of mountains and rocks here, and after a while, Ji Ji's body is full of boulders on the left and right.

Under Ji Ji's order, all the guards tied the donkeys together.

After all the preparations were made, Ji Ji said: "As soon as I beat the drum, Uncle Li will whip all the donkeys so that they will neigh at the same time, and as for Uncle Sun and the others, they will push the boulder down the mountain at the same time, and then shout at the same time, "Kill!" "Did you hear that?"

After everyone looked at each other, they replied, "I heard it." ”

Ji Ji turned around and walked behind the big drum.

She held two branches in her hands, took a deep breath, and then slammed her hands hard, and suddenly, a strong drum beat rushed out of the woods and rushed towards the clouds!

Just as the drums sounded, more than a dozen donkeys barked at the same time. The sound of drums, donkey carts, mixed with the dust stirred up by the rolling boulders, mixed with the shouts of more than a dozen people, for a while, it was really strong!

The thirty or forty robbers had long been a little weak in the face of the fifty or so guards, and just as they were pointing at these guards wholeheartedly, they suddenly heard a loud noise from the top of the hillside, especially the powerful drum that represented the charge and kill!

All of a sudden, the robbers were terrified!

The two armies have always been at war, fighting for a first-line opportunity. Just as the robbers were frightened by this sudden turn of events, one of the guards jumped up from the ground and screamed, "We are saved!" We are saved! ”

The guards cheered up, they jumped up one after another, drew their weapons, took their bows and arrows, and rushed towards the robbers who were caught off guard.

The robbers are small in number, where do they dare to insist? A whistle at the head led everyone to retreat into the woods behind them in a panic, and ran away without a trace in a blink of an eye.

Seeing that the robbers had retreated and dispersed, Jing Li and the others, who had escaped death, were also excited, they first hugged the people around them and cried a few times, Jing Li was the first to shout at the top of his voice: "Quick, quickly invite our life-saving benefactor." Abi was also there crying, "If it weren't for these benefactors today, we would not have been lucky." Several family gentlemen were also shouting: "Exactly, call the benefactors quickly." "I have a lot of gold here, I can withdraw the money and ask the benefactor to send me back to the city!"

However, Jing Li and the others screamed for a while, but there was no sound in the mountains and forests above their heads.

After a while, the princes were still a little scared, and they still felt that it was better to find a benefactor to escort them all the way back. However, when the guards they sent returned, they said, "The grass on the hillside is messy, and the footprints are strewn, and it is evident that someone has stopped just now, but no one is there, and it seems that the benefactor has gone." ”

This made Jing Li and the others very frustrated. They dared to stop any longer, got up one by one in a panic, and fled towards Jingzhou City in a car.

On the way, after walking with the donkey for a while, they finally couldn't help it, they surrounded Ji Xi, and Uncle Li took the lead in asking: "Girl, haven't you always wanted to show favor to these people?" We saved their lives just now, and we saved people's lives, so why are we still hiding? Sun Fu also shouted: "Yes, life-saving grace, this is a great favor." ”

"Favors?" In the donkey cart, Ji Ji's voice was a little cold, but I was afraid that she said coldly: "I'm just a weak woman, and I only have a dozen of you guards, but I drove away the sons and daughters of their six families, and the robbers who are waiting for the death of more than fifty guards, are you sure these people will really be grateful to me?" When the guards opened their mouths one by one and couldn't speak anymore, Ji Ji said again: "Moreover, I also saw the unbearable side of these wolves with my own eyes. Even if one of them feels humiliated and wants to take revenge, I can't prevent it! ”。
