Du Ruo let Mo Xingyao lie on the simple bamboo bed, picked up the shabby clothes from the ground, and covered him, Mo Xingyao pretended to close his eyes, in fact, he was already very sleepy, he had never been so tired after this journey, but he still held back his sleepiness and pretended to be asleep, Du Ruo saw that the child closed his eyes, and after a while, he made a sound of sleep, so he lay down on the ground and fell asleep with confidence, and Zhang Hua and Zhang Cai, the two little bandits, also fell asleep on the ground.

Mo Xingyao closed his eyes, waited for a long time, and saw that there was silence all around, he slowly opened his eyes, and heard the four bandits snoring, he tiptoed up, and walked gently towards the entrance of the cave, but he didn't think about it, and knocked down a wooden stick next to the fire, the wooden stick was originally dry, Mo Xingyao's feet touched, making a crisp sound, Mo Xingyao hurriedly lay back on the bamboo bed, covered with torn clothes, and closed his eyes.

Du Ruo opened his confused eyes, they were bandits, guarding hostages, and they always slept very lightly, but looking at Du Li next to him, he slept like a pig, he got up and looked at Mo Xingyao, and saw that he was sleeping soundly with his eyes closed, and thought about it carefully, although this child looked well-behaved, but he couldn't be unguarded, so he walked to the door of the cave with his torn clothes, crossed his body, and slept at the door of the cave.

Mo Xingyao waited for a while, quietly opened his eyes, and saw that Du Ruo did not sleep on the ground, but slept at the door of the cave, it was difficult for him to go out now, forget it, find a chance to escape tomorrow, where to take out the jewelry on his body, although the county order is also an official of the imperial court, but after all, it is a minor official, and the jewelry of the mother is expensive at a glance, but it is not at the level of the county lady.

On the mother's jewelry, some hairpins are specially asked to be engraved with ink characters, there is only one ink general in Chang'an City, if those bandits see it, they will definitely be suspicious, he looked at the tattered clothes covering his body, and secretly took out the jewelry in his short jacket lightly, fortunately he was not greedy, and he didn't take much jewelry.

He wrapped a few pieces of jewelry in the shabby clothes, left one without inscription, looked at the most inconspicuous step on his body, and looked around, and saw that there was a small pit near the bamboo bed, so he quietly rolled up the shabby clothes, pretended to turn over, put the shabby clothes wrapped in jewelry into the deep pit, and covered the soil next to him with his hands, after finishing these, he breathed a sigh of relief, it is better to sleep well tonight, and when he has accumulated enough energy, he will have to act at the opportunity tomorrow, If the county magistrate said that he didn't lose the child, then he would be unlucky.

The sky was bright, Du Ruo felt that there was light shining on his eyes, he opened his eyes, it was dawn, it was time to work, he hurriedly got up, and saw that his three subordinates were sleeping like pigs, especially Du Li, the snoring came and went, deafening, he stepped forward and kicked Du Li with his foot, Du Li was kicked on the buttocks, his hand was beaten, and he reluctantly said, "Who, disturbed the uncle's spring and autumn dreams, looking for a fight." ”

"Stop dreaming of your spring and autumn season, hurry up and get to work! You don't want silver anymore, and without silver you're having a fart dream. Du Li was shouted by Du Ruo, raised his head, he looked at it and saw that it was Du Ruo, and quickly turned over and sat up, Zhang Hua and Zhang Cai heard Du Ruo's shout, and also hurriedly stood up, Du Ruo saw that the child was still asleep, and did not wake him up, forget it, let him sleep for a while, anyway, he is not needed now.

"You three, who goes down the mountain to buy a carrier pigeon, the flying pigeon passes the book, and by the way buys some breakfast to eat, you are very hungry!" Du Ruo looked at the sleepy-eyed three people, the three of them heard Du Ruo's words, you look at me, I look at you, this big boss is indeed a big boss, they have done this dangerous work, he himself is good, just waiting in this cave to reward the silver, Du Li thought that he was also the second master, so he looked at Zhang Hua and Zhang Cai, and said to them, "Zhang Hua and Zhang Cai, the two of you, who is going to go!" ”

Zhang Hua and Zhang Cai, you look at me, I look at you, these two cunning foxes, Zhang Hua was about to speak, Zhang Cai took the first step, "The big boss, the second master, this is a trip, it is also very dangerous to be alone, for example, I go to buy carrier pigeons, if no one puts a sentry, I was caught by the officers and soldiers, then we are not all finished, I look at this child is also very well-behaved, you and the two people of the second master are here to watch him on the line, I and Zhang Hua and the two of them went down to buy carrier pigeons, buy breakfast, you see this is okay." ”

Du Ruo looked at Zhang Cai who finished speaking, Zhang Cai didn't dodge, and kept staring at Du Ruo, Du Ruo saw Zhang Cai's eyes open, not like a person who was treacherous and slippery, and thought about it again and said, "That's okay, if you act alone, it will inevitably be inconvenient, it's better to have a helper, if one of you is caught, the other person can run back to report the news, okay, you two go early and come back early, the letter paper on the carrier pigeon is written, if you want to redeem the child, reward one hundred taels of silver, and when the reward arrives, release the person immediately." ”

Zhang Hua and Zhang Cai listened to the words of the big boss, nodded, the two of them were about to walk out of the cave, Du Li suddenly asked the big boss Du Ruo, "Du Da Boss, where is the county order put this hundred taels, you haven't mentioned it on the letterhead." ”

Du Ruo listened to Du Li's words, nodded, and he asked the other three again, "Then where is the place where we traded with the county order?" You can't be in this broken cave, you three think about it! Du Li also thought about it, where is the safety of this trading place, he suddenly heard a burst of bells ringing next to him, his brain lit up, and said to Du Ruo, "Du Da is in charge, then trade in the Lingyin Temple of Baiqi Mountain next door, where the incense is vigorous, there are many people, we are also dressed in disguise, and it is not easy for officers and soldiers to catch us, that place is really excellent!" Du Li patted his brain, he was really getting smarter and smarter.

"Du Li, with you, you are really getting smarter and smarter, you are really a waste of talents, okay, Zhang Hua, Zhang Cai, you just write on the carrier pigeon address to trade in Lingyin Temple, when to trade, and wait for the person who got the reward to go to Lingyin Temple."

Zhang Hua and Zhang Cai turned around and wanted to go out again, Du Li shouted again, "You two wait a minute, big boss, look at you, I haven't tied people for so long, you don't remember this process, you have to get a token from this child, otherwise how can the county order believe us!" ”

Du Ruo patted his big bare head, pointed at Du Li with his finger, and smiled, "It's really worthy of being the second master, everything is really thoughtful, I'm ashamed of myself, we have been on the run for half a year, I really forgot about the technical work of kidnapping people, okay, just listen to Du Li's words, I'll go and wake up the child." ”

Mo Xingyao had actually woken up a long time ago, he had been pretending to close his eyes and listening to them, Du Ruo walked in front of the bamboo bed and gently shook Mo Xingyao, Mo Xingyao pretended to open his eyes gently, and pretended to yawn, and asked, "Why did you get up so early, I haven't slept enough." ”

Du Ruo saw that the child turned around and was about to turn over and continue sleeping, so he hurriedly said, "We will inform your father and mother, but we have no basis for our words, and your father and mother may not be able to trust us, so you take a token from you and give it to us, and the token is, as soon as your father and mother see it, they will know that it is you, do you know?"

Mo Xingyao pretended to nodded, he sat up, took out a step shake from his arms, and said to Du Ruo, "This is the step shake I secretly ran out of and took on my mother's dresser, I thought about coming out to buy something to eat, this step shake can also be exchanged for some money, this is my mother's favorite step shaker, as soon as she sees it, she must know that it is mine!" Here you go. ”

Du Ruo happily took the step shake in Mo Xingyao's hand, touched his little head again, and said happily, "Okay, you go back to sleep, when you wake up, you will be at home!" Mo Xingyao nodded, lay down again, and saw Du Ruo turn around and patted his head with his hand in disgust, it's really annoying, so dirty hands still have to touch my head, Du Ruo turned around and handed the step shake to Zhang Cai, "You put this step shake in a small bag, tie it to the carrier pigeon's feet, go and go back quickly, take the reward money, let's eat and drink spicy food early." ”

Zhang Cai took the step shake in Du Ruo's hand, and Zhang Hua walked out of the cave, at the door of the cave, the two of them smeared some ash from the ground and painted it on their faces, so that the officers and soldiers were not easy to see their true faces, they looked at the sky was about to dawn, and hurriedly climbed down the mountain, fortunately, the cave was not high, and it was not difficult to climb down the mountain, and they walked down the mountain, they walked to Yunjin City, within a radius of ten miles, only there were carrier pigeons.

Du Li watched Zhang Hua and Zhang Cai go out, and asked Du Ruo with a smile, "Big boss, I saw that you just handed Zhang Cai the emerald green step shake, that Zhang Cai's little eyes widened a lot, you said last night that you only gave them fifteen taels of silver, they didn't say it on the surface, they must be very unconvinced, I saw that the step shake was worth a few taels of silver, this go down the mountain, and risk your life, maybe the county order saw that the child was gone, and he was stupid and went to report to the official, or the county order and the general's mansion were on good terms, and asked for help from the general's mansion, You also know that if the general's mansion sends soldiers out to look for people, then the two of them are in danger, and you are not afraid that they will take that step and run away! ”

"Escape, where can they escape, I am the big boss of the Du family gang, if they escape this time, they are lucky if they don't meet me, if they meet me one day, they will die, the people who betrayed me in the Du family gang, you don't know the end, there were brothers who helped me arrest the traitor back, and now the brothers are gone, then I have to personally slaughter these things inside and outside."
