Chapter 22

The sound of scolding and scolding, after entering the cabin, it stopped, and through the hole, I also saw a man in a short shirt come down, first go to the Wanjia sisters and brothers to reach out and touch the cloth bag, and then walked to himself and touched the cloth bag casually, and then turned around.

This made the scalper, who had originally come up with several ways to get out of trouble, suddenly seemed to be punched in the air, but it was okay, anyway, now that the boat was in the middle of the river, the sky was still bright, even if the man could be knocked unconscious or restrained, the three of them would not be able to escape.

After hearing the sound of the door, the scalper untied the cloth bag and climbed out, thinking that it would not be long before the boat would stop, so he simply went to untie Wan Chunnu and Wan Jinbao, and saw that there were many wooden barrels, pressing stones and straw mats under the cabin, so he simply rolled three bundles of straw mats and put them in the cloth bag and placed them, which led Wan Chunnu and her brother to the bottom of the wooden ladder.

The scalper climbed the wooden ladder to explore, and saw that although it was late, the boat was still going downstream, so he could only say: "At this time, the boat is in the middle of the river, will you splash into the water?" ”

Who knew that the sister shook her head, but the younger brother nodded, although Wan Jinbao was also tied up for several hours, but his expression was not as flustered as his sister, but he also knew how to lower his voice and said: "I learned to fight in the water in Hangzhou, if my brother is good at water, he can escape if he can take his sister with him." ”

When Wan Chunnu heard this, he pulled the scalper's clothes and said hurriedly: "Huang ...... Huang Lang, don't listen to him, just fluttering in the lotus pond in the house, how dare he go down the river. ”

The scalper looked around, but saw a lot of wooden barrels, so he said, "Wait a while, I'll go and see, or there is another way." ”

So the scalper checked in the cabin, and found that most of the wooden barrels in the cabin were intact, and after smelling it, he could tell that most of them were put with gum and lacquer for repairing the cabin, and the cabin was full of this smell, so he immediately chose two empty barrels to come out, the size was only three feet high and two feet wide, and it would definitely not be possible to install people, but if it was tied to the body, it could barely be used as a pontoon, so he cut the rope and tied the barrel to a looper.

After thinking about it, the scalper simply used the dagger given by Lu Er to open the remaining five sealed wooden barrels, and scattered all the gum and lacquer inside, thinking that if he would escape for a while, he would not be able to easily let these thieves catch up, so he might as well set fire to the boat to attract their attention.

After arranging everything, the scalper took two straw mats and spread them out under the stairs, let the sister and brother sit on the ground, and waited for the opportunity.

Wan Chunnu saw that the scalper was quite disciplined, so he naturally settled down, and at this time, he remembered that he had heard the thieves talk about it before, because he saw the scalper sneakily following him and captured him together, so he asked in a low voice: "Huang Lang, how do you know that the slave sister and brother are in trouble?" ”

When the scalper heard this, he took out the pearl hairpin from his arms and said: "The ox cart that tied you passed by the door of my family's old shop, and the hairpin fell off, and I picked it up, but I remembered that it was yours." ”

Wan Chunnu's eyes turned red when he saw it, and he reached out and grabbed it, but he said in his heart: "This is left by the slave's mother for the slave." ”

But Wan Jinbao said: "Huh! Fourth sister, you didn't wear this hairpin this morning, I remember that you put Cui Dieer on your head. ”

When Wan Chunnu heard this, he touched his hair with his hand, and sure enough, he pulled out a hairpin made of silver, but on the hairpin was a green butterfly made of turquoise.

Immediately, Wan Chunnu also widened his eyes, looked at the scalper and said, "I think this hairpin slave is placed in the box at home, how can it be at Huang Lang's place?" ”

"Shhh Weird! Could it be that I stole it from your family? The scalper naturally wondered, but he couldn't tell the reason, so he had to argue strongly: "If it was really picked up at the door of my old shop, the thief stopped drinking at my old store, and when I left, I heard a sound at my feet and saw this hairpin, and said that you deliberately dropped it for me." ”

"Strange! Strange! Wan Jinbao scratched his head, but looked at the scalper and said, "How does my brother recognize this hairpin?" By the way, I listened to my brother just talking to the fourth sister, and the fourth sister was abducted by a kidnapper before, but it was also my brother who rescued me? ”

When the scalper heard this, his face turned red for no reason, and his mouth was not bad: "That's me." ”

The cabin was very dimly lit, and the skin on the scalper's face was also blackened, so Wan Jinbao didn't pay attention to it, but grabbed his hand and said, "Brother Daen, Jin Bao'er has written it down!" Although I and the fourth sister were not born to the same mother, the fourth sister is the best for me, and if I can get out of trouble this time, I will repay this kindness to my brother. ”

The scalper looked at Wan Jinbao, but he didn't expect that this kid looked two or three years younger than himself, but he said it very beautifully, but he called himself dumb, and he didn't know how to reply to him, but he continued: "Unexpectedly, the culprit who killed my uncle was Wan Fu." and Tao Er, who is a bird, is also the thief's internal response. The most hateful thing is this ten thousand blessings, when my uncle was killed, he said that he was collecting accounts outside and did not return, and he deceived his father to trust him, and he was really angry! No, we have to find a way to escape quickly, so that we can report the news to my father, this Wanfu dares to collude with the thieves of Huang Huadang, and want to harm our family, and we must not let him succeed. ”

Listening to Wan Jinbao's words, the scalper was even more surprised, in his opinion, he changed to another little baby, and when he encountered this kind of thing, he was afraid that he would be shocked by the six gods, and his bold and careful response was already extremely powerful, who knew that this Wan Jinbao was even stronger.

When he was still wondering, Wan Jinbao came to grab the scalper's sleeve and said, "Brother, look at what my brother did just now, is he trying to set fire?" When I fled for a while, my fourth sister entrusted it to my brother, and how about leaving the arson to me? ”

"Jinbao, you ......" Wan Chunnu was also anxious when he heard this, so he also came to grab the other sleeve of the scalper and said: "Huang Lang, please save Jinbao, let the slave release this fire!" If...... If something happens to Jinbao, the slave won't survive! ”

The sister and brother pulled one sleeve of their coat, only to shake the scalper dizzy, and immediately shook the sleeve and shouted in a low voice: "Don't make noise!" My brain hurts, let's just set fire together and walk together, what order to fight? ”

When the sister and brother thought about it, they also found that this was good, and when Wan Jinbao wanted to speak again, he asked Wan Chunnu to cover his mouth and said, "Huang Lang...... The previous life-saving grace was unrepayable by the slave. Now...... Now as long as Huang Lang can protect the slave's younger brother Zhou Quan, everything the slave depends on Huang Lang. ”

This time, the scalper was really in pain, so he said: "Okay, everything is easy to say, from now on, the two of you will keep your mouth shut, even if it helps a lot." ”

When the sister and brother heard this, they were well-behaved and stopped making noise, and time became wearable, and after a while, the light outside the door became darker and darker, and soon it was dark.

Just when I was about to wait impatiently, I heard footsteps from far and near, and then someone shouted: "Brother, take a break, I have prepared food and drinks in the front cabin!" ”

When the words fell, a vague voice seemed to answer, and then he listened to the man: "The man in charge will go down to the cabin to see the meat, don't suffocate to death." ”

Then he heard the sound of the hatch, and the scalper hurriedly pulled a roll of straw mats and covered it with the siblings, and then took out a dagger and picked up a ballast stone to hide behind the stairs and wait for the opportunity.
