Chapter 138: A Farmhouse Encounter

Chu Tianshu hurriedly said, "Don't don't, I really have something happy to tell you." ”

Du Yufei had no confidence in Chu Tianshu's words at all, she said helplessly: "Chu Tianshu, I've been busy with the case for the past few days, and I'm just going to take a break, can you not always bother me at night." ”

"Yufei, don't be angry, I'll report a situation to you, and I'm sure to make you overjoyed." Chu Tianshu felt that there was almost a fuss, so he said seriously: "Leng Xue and I found a small wooden house at the foot of the mountain on the west side of Xiufeng......

Du Yufei couldn't help but interrupt Chu Tianshu's words: "Wait, aren't you at the top of Xiufeng Mountain, why did you run to the foot of the mountain on the west side again?" ”

"This, I'll go back to you and talk to you slowly." Chu Tianshu came out of the cabin, stood in the courtyard, and continued: "I suspect that this cabin is the nest of a robbery gang. ”

"Chu Tianshu, what did you say? Wait a minute, I'll get a pen and paper...... Okay, tell me more about it. When Du Yufei heard Chu Tianshu's words, she immediately came to her senses, she quickly grabbed a pen and paper, and urged Chu Tianshu to say quickly.

Chu Tianshu reported the direction recorded by the cold snow just now, and described some characteristics such as the grove and the small lake, asking her to bring someone over to squat and search as soon as possible, and told her that at the fork in the woods, two people would be left to lead the way, one fat and one thin, and there were also two unconscious living mouths left in the cabin.

Du Yufei said in surprise: "Chu Tianshu, what have you all done?" ”

"Hehe, we didn't do anything, we just starved to death."

"Then you wait, if you don't report the false police, I'll bring you something to eat."

"I'm sorry, Officer Du, but we don't want to take credit from you at all." Chu Tianshu resumed his evil smile and said, "In case it is a false policeman, I am afraid that you will arrest us." After speaking, he hung up the phone proudly, and grinned when he thought of Du Yufei's crying and laughing on the other end of the phone.

Chu Tianshu walked into the cabin again, withdrew the mobile phone card, threw the mobile phone back on the shelf bed, and then pulled Leng Xue to leave.

Leng Xue hesitantly looked at the two men and women who were tied together, and asked unbearably, "Lao Chu, do you want to take them away?" ”

"No, I don't have to. These two birds and men and women are self-inflicted, both pitiful and hateful. Chu Tianshu found that after this great reversal of life and death, Leng Xue's heart was much softer than in the past.

Xue Kai and his little mistress both looked at Leng Xue with blank eyes, nodding their heads, and their eyes glowed with pity.

Seeing that Leng Xue was still hesitating, Chu Tianshu grabbed her hand and said, "Let's go, they are still important witnesses to Wan Zhiliang's collusion with Brother Guang." ”

Chu Tianshu and Leng Xue got out of the cabin, gently closed the door, came to the grove again, untied the thin man and the short and fat man from the tree, and led them back to the fork in the road.

Chu Tianshu tied them to a tree at the fork in the road again, and before leaving, he took out the key to the motorcycle from the thin man's pocket, patted his face, and said with a smile: "Dude, I'm sorry, you still have to wait here to show the way for the police." ”

Leaving the fork in the road and finding the motorcycle, Chu Tianshu used the compass to discern the direction, and galloped on the mountain path with the cold snow, and after forty minutes, they finally saw the green fields and clusters of green-tiled farmhouses in the distance.

Chu Tianshu stopped the car and raised the telescope hanging on his chest to observe the movement in the village.

It's a beautiful village.

A small river winds its way around the village, and a few large trees beside the river are lush and leafy. There is a small stone bridge over the river, and after crossing the small stone bridge, it is not far from the main road.

Immediately off the side of the road is a row of tiled houses, where there is a small shop with lights, a teenage boy teasing a small dog, and a peasant woman sitting at the glass counter idly looking in the direction of the headlights.

"I'm hungry, let's see if I can get something to eat." Chu Tianshu pushed the motorcycle, climbed a small slope, and came to the door of the shop.

It is said to be a small shop, but in fact it is a glass counter in front of the house, and the door is closed, which is no different from an ordinary farmhouse.

The furnishings of the home were very basic: a few old-fashioned wooden chairs, a square table, and long wooden benches, which were rarely seen in the city, and under the eaves hung farm implements and hats to protect from the rain.

When Chu Tianshu and Leng Xue approached the tiled house, a big dog came out of the house, hunched over, and barked wildly at the two strangers who suddenly broke in.

The boy stood up, froze in place, and looked coldly.

"Who?" The peasant woman sitting in the house came out, and she waved her hand to stop the attack of the big dog.

"We're here to travel," Chu Tianshu hurriedly said, "I'm lost." ”

"Oh, it didn't scare you, did it?" When the peasant woman saw their embarrassed appearance, she pursed her lips and smiled, and said suspiciously, "When did you pass, why didn't I see you?" ”

"We passed early in the morning, and you haven't opened the door yet." Chu Tianshu also smiled and said, "You are the boss lady, do you have anything to eat?" ”

"Yes, what would you like to eat?" The peasant woman put up a smile and dodged away, so that Chu Tianshu could see the glass counter.

There are mostly daily necessities such as oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, matches, cigarettes and so on, and the only things that can be eaten are a few packets of inferior biscuits, judging from the dust falling on them, it is estimated that they have long expired, and Chu Tianshu and Leng Xue, who were too hungry, had no appetite at all.

"We haven't eaten for a day, we're almost hungry, sister-in-law, do you have any hot dishes at home?" Chu Tianshu looked into the room.

"This ......," the peasant woman was a little embarrassed. We're just a small shop. ”

"Sister-in-law, it's okay to give us a bowl of noodles." Chu Tianshu really wanted to drink something like hot soup.

"Alright then, you come in and sit down, I'll go and make you a note." The peasant woman enthusiastically let Chu Tianshu and Leng Xue into the house, and said in her mouth: "You young people in the city, it's really interesting, what's so fun about such a poor mountain ravine." ”

Chu Tianshu and Leng Xue sat down at the table.

The peasant woman entered the room on the side, took out a tube of noodles from it, grabbed a few eggs in her hand, and said with an embarrassed smile: "I'm sorry, there are only a few eggs at home, you can take care of it." "Look at her like that, as if she was sorry for the two of them because of the poverty of her family.

"Sister-in-law, thank you so much."

The peasant woman went into the back stove room to make a fire and boil water, and came out to greet Chu Tianshu and Leng Xue, and put the wet clothes outside into the stove room to bake.

Chu Tianshu took off his coat and handed it to Leng Xue into the stove room, he had nothing to do, so he beckoned the boy into the house and teased him with binoculars, and after a while, he became very familiar.

"Little brother, where's your father?" Chu Tianshu asked casually.

The boy grabbed the binoculars and whispered, "My father has gone out to borrow money." ”

I haven't come back so late, and it seems that it is difficult to borrow money.

"What's wrong?"

"My grandmother is sick, and my sister's tuition hasn't been paid yet." The boy returned the binoculars to Chu Tianshu, and when he spoke, his eyes turned a little red.

The smell of eggs and noodles wafted from the stove, and the little boy swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Leng Xue took the dried clothes and let Chu Tianshu put them on.

At this time, a man wearing a hat entered the house and scolded in a rough voice: "Stinky woman, I'm not at home, you dare to steal the noodles to eat?" ”

When he took off his hat, he suddenly saw two people sitting in the room, and when he looked up, his body trembled, and his feet wanted to quit.

Chu Tianshu looked at it and was happy: It's really a coincidence that there is no book, isn't this a Taoist priest who tells fortunes in the small pavilion? He shouted with a smile: "Brother Dao, we meet again." ”

"There is fate, there is fate." He forced his composure, looked Chu Tianshu and Leng Xue up and down, and said, "The two of you will have a blessing for the rest of your life after the catastrophe!" ”

"Ha Lu Ha." Chu Tianshu laughed. "Brother Dao, did you expect us to meet again so soon?"

At this time, the peasant woman brought out two bowls of noodles from the stove and scolded, "Come, you eat, don't listen to him pretending to be a ghost." ”

The Taoist priest smiled awkwardly, hung the hat on the wall, and said, "You two, why did you come to my house?" ”

"Hehe, you calculated it accurately, the heavy rain washed down the mountain, and it can be regarded as an escape from death."

"Alas," the Taoist priest sighed, "I am talking nonsense, if I can really calculate accurately, I will still nest here and let my wife and children suffer poor." ”

Chu Tianshu turned his head and asked, "Brother Dao, you haven't eaten yet, have you?" You come first. ”

The Taoist priest waved his hand, motioned for Chu Tianshu and them to eat, took out a cigarette himself, squatted on the ground, and smoked it with his head down.

The peasant woman walked up to him and whispered, "Have you borrowed any money?" ”

The Taoist priest shook his head, let out a long sigh, and pulled the peasant woman into the back room.

Chu Tianshu and Leng Xue were already so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs, so they didn't care about being polite to the Taoist priests, and they devoured a large bowl of noodles and eggs, and even drank the soup at the bottom of the bowl.

Leng Xue put down the bowl, touched Chu Tianshu beside him, and whispered: "His family is really in trouble, you go and ask to see if you can help them." ”

Chu Tianshu nodded and said, "This family is really kind-hearted, especially the sister-in-law, I heard that we didn't eat for a day, and without saying a word, she made the best things in the house for us to eat." ”

Chu Tianshu called out the Taoist priest and took out a hundred yuan to ask if it was enough.

The peasant woman rubbed her apron in her hand and said nervously, "Young man, just a few eggs, you won't need so much." ”

The Taoist priest took it and said with a smile: "This is a lot of money, otherwise, I will give you another hexagram." ”

Chu Tianshu shook his head and said, "We still have to hurry, forget it today." ”

Seeing that the Taoist priest and Chu Tianshu were still talking nonsense, Leng Xue couldn't help it, she took the peasant woman's hand and asked, "Sister-in-law, is your family in trouble?" ”

The peasant woman wiped her eyes with the back of her hand, nodded, and said "um".

The Taoist priest still wanted to slap his swollen face and become fat, so he yelled at the peasant woman: "What are you, don't you still have me?" ”
