Chapter 196: Fooling around
A person who looked like a leader looked at Xiao Jiu even more decently, and when he saw that it was a beautiful girl, he even pretended to tidy up his tattered and dirty clothes.
Said casually: "What? This beauty, what are you looking for Uncle Ben? ”
Xiao Jiu didn't like to be in the company of this kind of person at all, and lowered her identity, Qianqianyu pointed at the little boy who was surrounded: "I want him." ”
The head snorted twice: "I said Miss, he is still a little kid, what can he do, why don't you choose me, Miss?" I'm a strong man, and I can do anything. ”
As he spoke, looking at Xiao Jiu's expression, he became profound.
Xiao Jiu didn't talk nonsense with this group of people, and took out a bag of broken silver, "Don't talk nonsense, I want him, you only have two choices, the first is to take the money and leave obediently, and the second is to crawl out." ”
After speaking, she took out the saber on her body, this was still what she found from Tang Hu's carriage, everyone in Tianqiong Fort knew how to use swords, so she also brought it.
A group of beggars looked at Xiao Jiu with a cold face and a murderous look, and the head could only take the money and reluctantly leave with everyone.
Xiao Jiu and the others were almost gone, before they stepped forward, the child standing in the middle was a little shrunk because of Xiao Jiu's approach, Xiao Jiu hurriedly coaxed: "Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you." ”
The little boy raised his head to look at Xiao Jiu and asked cautiously, "Really...... Are you sure? ”
Xiao Jiu realized that this little boy was not stupid, just a little stuttering, no wonder he was bullied, no matter what era it was, people with disabilities would be treated with colored glasses, Xiao Jiu was a little moved for a while.
Gentle smile: "Are you okay to go with your sister?" I promise that you will never be bullied again in the future, and you will be able to eat and dress warmly, okay? ”
The little boy nodded in agreement: "Okay...... Thank...... Thank you...... Sister. ”
Xiao Jiu took the little boy to buy a few clothes, and along the way, he learned that the little boy was originally a child of a normal family, but because his parents died early and there were no relatives willing to take care of him, he lived on the streets as a beggar.
Because he is small, he is always bullied, and he resisted at the beginning, and every time he resisted, he would be beaten more fiercely, so he didn't resist directly, and gradually, he began to stop talking, and it became a small stutter now.
Moreover, the little boy was not as dirty as other beggars, except for the tattered clothes, which could not be seen as a beggar at all.
Xiao Jiu took the little boy to the ready-to-wear store and bought a few new clothes, the little boy looked at the new clothes, the smile in his eyes couldn't be hidden, he couldn't remember how long he hadn't worn new clothes.
Xiao Jiu let the little boy hold all the new clothes by himself, and the little boy was even happier.
"Let's go, go back to the inn with my sister, let's take a shower and change into new clothes, okay with food?"
Back to the inn, Xiao Jiu asked people to send a bath upstairs, the little boy took a bath behind the screen, put on new clothes and came out, sure enough, a white and pure child appeared in front of Xiao Jiu.
Xiao Jiu sat at the table, there was a big table of delicious food and drink on the table, the little boy looked at the food, and kept swallowing saliva in his mouth, but he was not rude and rushed forward to grab the food.
Just staring at the food, Xiao Jiu's heart was touched. Beckoning with a smile: "Come, come here, this is all what my sister called for you to eat, come and eat, you're welcome." ”
The little boy immediately walked over with a smile, couldn't wait to pick up a bun with both hands, and took two bites hard, he could control it if he didn't eat it, and he couldn't stop eating it.
The little boy took something while eating and handed it to Xiao Jiu, "Sister...... You...... You eat too. ”
Xiao Jiu didn't answer, but said, "No, you eat, my sister is not hungry, you eat more." ”
The little boy is not pressing, he is satisfied with eating alone.
When the little boy was finally full, Xiao Jiu took out a few pieces of broken silver and put them in the little boy's hand, and told him: "Sister has something to go out recently, someone will bring you food when the time comes, you are here alone, don't you be afraid, okay?" ”
When the little boy heard that his sister was leaving, he grabbed Xiao Jiu's shirt, and his eyes were full of panic: "Sister, I'm afraid...... Fear. ”
Xiao Jiu patted the little boy's head comfortingly: "Don't be afraid, you are a man, besides, my sister has only been away for a few days, and it is not that she will not come back, can you live here obediently?" ”
The little boy had no choice but to let go of his hand, "Sister, you must ...... Be quick...... Come back...... I'm over here...... Waiting for you. ”
"Okay, you go to sleep now, my sister will go first."
Xiao Jiu watched the little boy enter the bed, turned around and left without looking back, the little boy watched Xiao Jiu leave, his eyes did not blink, he just didn't talk to anyone for too long, so he became a stammer, but he was not a fool.
"Sister, I hope you can really come back and take me away."
On Xiao Jiu's side, one jumped down the tree trunk in the backyard of the inn onto the street, and walked directly to the coffin shop without stopping.
Coffins are still taboo for many people, so generally this kind of multi-coffin transportation will be set off early in the morning, when there are the least pedestrians to avoid colliding with pedestrians.
She had to sneak into the coffin before the guy got up, so she could lie down in the coffin when it was leaving.
Xiao Jiu arrived at the coffin shop, and jumped directly into the small courtyard of the coffin shop, and at night, only the moonlight was sprinkled here, and I don't know if it was because this was the reason for the coffin shop, which made people feel a little scary.
Xiao Jiu walked gently to the lobby, adapting to the darkness, coupled with the light of the moonlight, Xiao Jiu quickly found several coffins that had been installed, and they were all wrapped with red cloth, which was also a rule.
Red can ward off evil spirits, as long as someone buys a coffin, whether it is used or not, a red cloth will be tied during the transportation process, and the most taboo in this line of work is these, so it is also an open secret.
Xiao Jiu chose the coffin at the back and gently lifted the coffin, at this time, Xiao Jiu was especially glad that her martial arts were not bad, otherwise it would be impossible to enter the coffin without leaving a trace.
Xiao Jiu entered the coffin and lay down, covered the coffin, and lit a closed air hole for herself, she had already seen it, these coffins were tied tightly, indicating that the place she went to must not be too close, in order not to arouse suspicion, so she could only hold her breath, otherwise she would suffocate inside.
After clicking on the acupoint, Xiao Jiu fell into a deep sleep, she didn't point deeply, so she could wake up in a day at most, one day, not too long, she could continue to go to the capital.
On the inn's side, at least three days can buy her, as long as two days, she can definitely get rid of this group of people.
