Chapter 69: The Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell

Simao didn't pick up Kuidhai's stubble, but asked: "How do you know that Jin Baimei already knows my bottom line?" ”

Quidehai said: "This is the condition that Jin Baimei and Steward Ma discussed, Steward Ma can get the money, but Jin Baimei has to find someone to carry this black cauldron, so that he can give an explanation to the county honor, so Steward Ma told Jin Baimei that you are in a group with us, and the idea is yours." And then pull me over overnight to report to you, which is also a helpless thing. Steward Ma wants silver, Jin Baimei doesn't want to offend Mrs. Ma, and has to have a scapegoat top tank, and then, Steward Ma will give you a message again, not to drive out the brothers, a few good in one, you deserve to be unlucky. ”

The guest hall after Quidehai left was quiet, occasionally a few murmurs of autumn insects, Simao looked at the eight immortal tables with slanted cups after the house was empty, picked up the wine jar in front of him, poured wine into the wine bowl, and said to the air behind him without looking back: "Don't hide, they came to send me news at night, tomorrow morning, it is estimated that the people with golden eyebrows should come to the door, we all have to run back, or let's drink a cup of this loose wine?" ”

Lao Zhang walked out of the darkness brightly, sat down beside Simao quietly, took the wine bowl handed over by Simao, took a small sip, and there was no cynicism in his eyes, but a little apology: "Things are really out of control?" Do we have to die as a family? ”

Simao nodded silently: "Now, you don't have to blame yourself, pack up tonight, except for the clothes and gold and silver, don't bring anything else, tomorrow morning the rooster crows three times and let's .......leave."

Lao Zhang looked at Simao's face cautiously, there was no joy, anger and sorrow on his face, only the bottomless pupils emitted a faint light under the candle flame, like an ancient well, not prosperous, but he didn't know how many things he had on his mind: "Where are we going next?" And how can they live? ”

Simao looked at the father next to him, who had always eaten and waited for death, and couldn't help but smile faintly: "Okay, Dad, it's no longer that you can't wake up, you know that you have a plan........"

Lao Zhang was robbed of white by his son, and his face couldn't help but blush, and when he was about to reflexively ridicule him, Simao said: "Take the ......." The voice did not fall, and a stack of silver tickets was pushed in front of Lao Zhang: "There are 10,000 silver here, let's divide the account with 28, you 8 and I 2, and there is a famous thorn, you hire a mule cart tomorrow morning to take your mother to the Longwangmiao Wharf to find the first boat to Jingzhou, there is a person surnamed Kui waiting for you, show him this name thorn, he will naturally take you and your mother together, remember, no matter what happens, If someone intercepts you, you will not know where I am, and you will naturally be safe when you get on the boat. After arriving in Jingzhou, someone has rented a place to live to settle you, these silver is the future of you and your mother to settle down the book, for a period of time you can't see me, I can't take care of you and your mother, you all rely on the 8,000 silver to live. Whether you find a casino to lose in a few days, and then you take your mother to Changjie to ask for food and drink the northwest wind or do a small business carefully, and make a living for people to copy and write, all of which are chosen by your father, and this time you will be a home. ”

Lao Zhang took the famous thorn and a stack of silver tickets, and somehow felt a sour feeling in his heart: "You really dare to hand over the silver tickets to me?" Why don't you give it to your mother? ”

Simao smiled faintly: "You reminded me, hey, or I'll hand it over to my mother?" When he said this, he made a gesture to reach out and take the silver ticket.

Lao Zhang shrank his hand and put the silver ticket into his arms: "It's rare that there are still sons in this world who can trust us, and dare to give me the silver, and I will also smack it to feel what it feels like." ”

"This time I went to Jingzhou, people and land are two lives, Dad, you can just change your face." Simao looked at Lao Zhang meaningfully, and came up with a pun.

Lao Zhang grinned and said: "You kid is getting bigger and smaller, you are teaching your father that you can be reborn and live at home again, right?" ”

Simao didn't answer directly, but poured a bowl of wine for Lao Zhang, and poured a bowl of wine in front of him, and then raised the wine bowl and saluted: "Dad, to tell the truth, you don't have to do it, let alone be reborn, you just need to be the original self." ”

Lao Zhang swallowed the words of Simao with a sip of wine, and it took a while for a while to ruminate, pondering out how many layers of meaning and how many flavors, and the scenes of the past appeared in front of him, and then instinctively felt a pain in his brain, Lao Zhang took a sip, and asked again: "What about you?" You're not coming with us? Where are you going? ”

A faint flash of cold light flashed imperceptibly in Simao's eyes: "You take care of yourself and take care of your mother, you are the greatest help to me, the farther away I am from you, the safer I am, and after a year and a half, after this matter subsides, I will naturally go to you and my mother." ”

Longwang Temple is the wharf that specially stops and transports guests at the mouth of the river, goes south to north, the flow of people from east to west all converges here, along the river embankment are all passenger boats, the draft is not deep, the high sail is narrow, can not carry much goods, but it can be called god speed when it is used to load people. Especially in the case of smooth wind and water, it can withstand the cry of apes on both sides of the strait, and the light boat has passed over the ten thousand mountains.

A mule-drawn sedan covered with a tight curtain, passing through the flow of people, can be worthy of the dock, suddenly surrounded by seven or eight men, forcibly pulled the reins, the handlebar style of the car is honest, anxious to accompany the careful: "Ladies and gentlemen, what do you have to say, the most honest duty of the little one, I have never offended a few masters, right?" ”

The first man ignored the handlebar, and ripped off the curtain of the car, revealing a man and a woman inside, who were Lao Zhang He and Simao Niang. The man looked carefully, the inside of the car was the square position, and the husband and wife did not even have a cage except for a small coarse cloth package with them, and it was clear at a glance, and there was nothing else.

"Where's Zhang Simao?" The man stared at Lao Zhang and asked viciously.

Lao Zhang scolded hatefully: "I'm still looking for this little rabbit cub, are you his fox friend and dog friend?" What are you looking for him? ”

The man didn't say anything, but continued to ask, "Where are you going?" ”

Simao Niang on the side said: "I went to visit relatives with the old man, are you Simao's acquaintance or friend?" We really didn't lie to you, Simao came back last night, and after eating, he didn't know where he went in the second half of the night, and we didn't know where he went. ”

The man turned his head to look at one of his subordinates beside him, who whispered to him close to his ear: "I heard that his neighbor said that he did come back last night, but the brothers didn't block him early in the morning, so he could only slip away in the middle of the night, these two old people are not lying." ”

The man was hesitant, and when he was hesitating, Quaidhai and the horse butler were slowly pacing from the dock, and Lao Zhang glanced at these two people, who were the late-night visitors he saw in the corner of the wall yesterday, and immediately got off the mule cart with his legs on his legs, grabbed the big man a few steps ahead, grabbed Quaidhai, and said: "Virtuous nephew, virtuous nephew, I am looking for you." ”

Kui Dehai suddenly had something more in his hand, and when he glanced at it, he found that it was a famous thorn of Kui Fang. Then he said quietly: "Take off the salute and get on the boat." ”

"Hey, it's ......." Lao Zhang was like a holy order, and he got into the car to help Simao Niang. When the man saw it, he was about to step forward to stop him, but the subordinate next to him pressed the big man's wrist, lowered his voice and said, "Master Jin has an order, don't arrest people if you don't see the main master........"

The big man retreated stupidly, and stared at Lao Zhang and his wife with a pair of bull eyes, but he was speechless, so he could only let the two of them get on the boat with Quaidhai.

Kuaidhai led Lao Zhang and his wife to the boat, and at the same time asked suspiciously, "Why do you only see you two elders?" Where is Simao now? Won't he go with you? ”

Lao Zhang shook his head and smiled bitterly: "This kid didn't know where to go in the middle of the night last night, and he asked us to come to you." ”

Quidehai looked incredulous, looking at the expressions of Lao Zhang and his wife, and it didn't seem to be fake, he knew that asking was also asking in vain, but the horse butler next to him smiled and said: "Look at the posture of Jin Baimei today, I'm afraid that the town is full of dark piles, Zhang Simao, this kid, monkey spirit monkey spirit, must have expected that the other party would do it early this morning, so he used this trick Jin Cicada to get out of his shell, and now he is only afraid that human hair will also make them unable to catch a golden white eyebrow." ”

When everyone was suspicious, but Steward Ma guessed correctly, when Simao received the urgent news from the two of them last night, he had already expected that after Xu Sandao attached to Jin Baimei, Jin Baimei would inevitably give Xu Sandao a thorough confession, one wanted to catch his own top tank, and the other would hate himself after understanding the truth and go deep into the bone marrow, these two people made do with each other, but they were afraid that they would not have to do it overnight, so Simao used a trick to get rid of the golden cicada and slipped away in the middle of the night, as long as he didn't fall into their hands, It will be safe for your parents to swagger down the street. And at this moment, Simao is actually not far away, not only without the pain of boat and car fatigue, but also with wine and beauty on the side, comfortable and comfortable.
