Ai Qiaoqiao and the others hid in the cave all day.

At noon on the second day, I heard the chirping of birds in the woods, and they flew up to the sky from the woods.

The look in Ye Bing's eyes suddenly froze.

Hearing this sound, someone in the forest will startle the birds.

Tong Tong subconsciously leaned towards Ai Qiaoqiao's side.

Ye Bing lifted her sword and stood up.

Ai Qiaoqiao suddenly felt nervous, "Sister Ye Bing ......"

"It's okay." Ye Bing smiled at her, "Even though there are many of them and I am invincible, there is no problem in escaping, they can't catch me." ”

Ai Qiaoqiao wanted to say something more, but when the words came to her lips, she couldn't say it.

Ye Bing saw that she was uneasy in her heart, and said with a smile: "Don't think that I am for you, I am for the sake of the son, if you don't protect yourself, wouldn't you smash the signboard of my second shopkeeper." With that, she took her sword and went out of the cave.

After a while, the sound of a man shouting in the forest outside sounded.

Obviously, Ye Bing deliberately let them discover the traces and lure them away.

Until the evening, Ye Bing did not come back.

The atmosphere in the cave was a little oppressive.

Ai Qiaoqiao didn't dare to close her eyes all night, for fear that she would miss the movement outside.

At dawn, there was a faint sound of dogs barking in the cave.

Ai Qiaoqiao's sleepiness suddenly dissipated.

Got a dog?

She looked at Aunt Ji.

Aunt Ji was also awake, her eyes were clear, staring outside.

Ai Qiaoqiao secretly swallowed saliva.

She had heard Wen Wenhua say before that trained dogs could be used to find people, and they would search for scents to find people's hiding places.

Aunt Ji frowned deeply, got up and walked outside without a sound.

Ai Qiaoqiao didn't think about it, so she hugged the other party from behind, "Aunt Ji, don't go ......"

She didn't dare to think about what she would do if Aunt Ji had an accident with Ye Bing.

She has no martial arts, she just wants to rescue, and in the end she can only catch herself.

Aunt Ji was unusually calm, she patted Ai Qiaoqiao's arm, "I owe your father a life, so I will definitely protect you, you can rest assured." ”

Ai Qiaoqiao was surprised.

In the past, she had heard people from Xiaofang Village talk about Aunt Ji and her father, saying that they were like sisters and brothers, and she was still a little difficult to understand at that time.

Because Aunt Ji's personality is really difficult to get close to, she can't figure out how her father can get along so well with each other.

"Owe my dad his life?" Ai Qiaoqiao, this is the first time I have heard Aunt Ji take the initiative to talk about herself.

Aunt Ji stood at the entrance of the cave, turned back to her and said: "When my family came to the side of Chuanziling, it was your father who saved my life and placed me in the village, I owe him this love, he entrusted me to take care of you, so don't worry, I will not sit idly by and watch you being arrested by those people." ”

Aunt Ji turned around and left the cave, and Ai Qiaoqiao stood there, her heart was in a mess, and she couldn't tell what she was feeling in her heart.

Suddenly, someone next to her tugged at the corner of her clothes.

Ai Qiaoqiao lowered her head and saw Tong Tong standing beside her, pulling her clothes with her little hands, and then looking to the side.

Ai Qiaoqiao followed her gaze and saw Xiao Yan standing not far behind her.

Ai Qiaoqiao frowned slightly.

She didn't want to pay attention to the woman.

Even if she has become a relative to Ye Li, she will never forget who harmed Ye Li, and who caused the innocent lives of the Medicine King Valley.

Ai Qiaoqiao led Tong Tong back to the depths of the cave.

Gradually, twilight fell.

Neither Aunt Ji nor Ye Bing came back.

Ai Qiaoqiao didn't sleep all night last night, and at this time she was a little sleepy, leaning on the stone and dozing off.

Faintly, she heard someone whispering around her.

“…… She was the one who brought the rebels in. ”

"That's right, Miss Xiaoyan heard it with her own ears, and we were kind enough to take her in, but it turned out that she was involved."

"What if those rebels come in again?"

Ai Qiaoqiao woke up suddenly.

Tong Tong rested on her lap and slept soundly.

Opposite her, a dozen or so villagers were gathered there to talk, and when they saw her wake up, they turned their heads one by one with strange expressions.

At this moment, an old man from the village came over and said, "This girl, please come here, I have something to ask you." ”

Ai Qiaoqiao hesitated for a moment, gently put down the child in his arms, and followed the old man to a secluded place on the side of the cave.

In addition to the old man, there were four elderly people who also followed, including one of the medicine kings.

Ai Qiaoqiao glanced back and found that Xiao Yan had also followed.

"These are all old people in our village." The old man said to Ai Qiaoqiao, and the implication was that what they said was very authoritative in the village.

Ai Qiaoqiao nodded, "What do you want to ask me?" ”

The old man's expression was a little embarrassed, "Miss Xiaoyan said, you brought in those rebels outside?" ”

Hearing this, Ai Qiaoqiao only felt a buzz in her head.

She swooped at the geese.

Little Goose hid behind her father, hanging her head, looking innocent.

Ai Qiaoqiao couldn't tell whether she felt more anger or disdain in her heart.

The old man saw that Ai Qiaoqiao did not deny it, so he hurriedly said: "We were kind enough to take you in, but we didn't expect you to cause trouble, and you also saw it, these people in our village...... When you're old, you can't bear to let us be buried with you? ”

Ai Qiaoqiao understood everything in her heart.

Angry, she was unusually calm, she sat down on a stone opposite the old man, and said generously, "Then what do you want me to do?" ”

The old man paused and looked at the people around him.

The Medicine King lowered his head and remained silent.

No one answered the old men, but everyone looked at Ai Qiaoqiao.

They are all ordinary croppers, who only know the sunrise and live their lives at sunset, and suddenly something so big happens, they all panicked and only cared about their own safety.

The most important thing they wanted was to get rid of the culprits who could cause the trouble.

Seeing that no one answered him, the old man had to bite the nail on his head and said, "You are young and your body is also flexible, if you flee into the mountains, forgive those rebels who will not be able to catch you, if they can't catch you, they will naturally leave, and our people here will be safe and sound." ”

Ai Qiaoqiao said coldly, "Miss Xiaoyan said that I brought those rebels, does she have any evidence?" ”

Everyone turned their heads to look at the little goose in unison.

The medicine king also looked at his daughter, "Xiaoyan, don't talk nonsense about this matter, do you have any evidence for this?" ”

Xiao Yan stood up from behind the Medicine King and said in a deep voice: "My daughter didn't lie about it, I heard them say this with my own ears." ”

Ai Qiaoqiao sneered, "You said you heard it with your own ears, and I still have to say that we didn't say this at all, what kind of evidence is this, and I also want to say that you are deliberately spreading nonsense and deliberately trying to kill me." ”

Xiao Yan looked aggrieved, "You are talking nonsense, how could I deliberately harm you." ”

"You have already harmed me once last time, many people have seen it with their own eyes, if your memory is not good, do you want me to remind you again? In front of Yicaotang, how did the night doctor scold you at that time, telling you to get out, do you remember? ”

Xiao Yan's face suddenly lost blood.

Ai Qiaoqiao turned to the Medicine King: "I later heard that the Medicine King was also present at the time, I believe that with the character of the Medicine King, he will never lie, do you say that Xiao Yan deliberately harmed me at the beginning?" ”

Medicine King Tie had a blue face, his lips trembled for a long time, and he couldn't say a word.

Xiaoyan is his daughter, and he can't bear to expose his own shortcomings, but he can't ignore his conscience, so he can only bow his head deeply.

Equivalent to default.
