Chapter 74: A suspected traitor is tied up
The old woman hesitated for a moment, but finally believed it.
She opened the door again, and there was an old man beside her.
They seemed very enthusiastic and welcomed Ximen Jian in and invited him to the kang.
Seeing that Ximen Jian was injured, he boiled warm water again and asked him to wash his face.
He was busy cleaning his wounds, applying red wound medicine, and making him a bowl of cornmeal gnocchi soup.
The old woman and the old man saw that although Ximen Jian was tall and mighty, he was not very old and was still a child, so they relieved him to live at home.
This is a very common three-room thatched house in the mountains.
The east room is inhabited, the middle is the kitchen, and the west house is the warehouse.
The east house is the north and south kang, and the old couple lives in the south kang.
There are also a few brand-new bedding on the north kang.
Ximen Jian asked, "Old man, who else is in your family?" ”
"Ah, this ......"
The old man hesitated for a moment and said, "I have two dogs, I went to his grandmother's house, guest officer, you can rest, and call your aunt tomorrow morning to help you mend your clothes......"
When Ximen Jian heard this, he knew that the old man was reluctant to talk more, so he didn't ask any questions and fell asleep on the north kang.
He felt that this small fire kang was quite hot, and on this cold day, he was very tired and comfortable to sleep, although the injuries on his body were still faintly painful.
He touched the futon again, and it was very noisy, and his heart was strange.
I thought: The house where this family lives is very dilapidated, but the bedding is quite new, and I think back to what I have experienced during this time, and I am full of emotion.
Look at the injury on the body, although it is not a big problem. But after all, it is a scratch from a wolf's paw, which is easy to be infected and unwilling to get better, and it is a big winter and afraid of freezing.
He estimated that it would be difficult for him to walk tomorrow, and the taste of being a stranger in a foreign land made him frown, tossing and turning, and unable to sleep......
Suddenly, Ximenjian's magical ears heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves and neighing in the distance, and from far to near.
The sound of horses and hooves caused a dog barking in Tunzi.
Then, the sound of the horse's hooves reached the door of the farmer where Ximen Jian was staying.
Ximen Jianxin can't say it well, did he encounter the situation of Xia He Inn again?
The sensitivity of his profession made him get up with a grunt, and put on his clothes in the dark.
He already felt that today's situation was similar to what he heard at the Xia He Inn on the prairie, was he going to be chased by the little devil again?
Ximen Jian thought again, the little devil spy chief and Zhiying Er, the oriental witch Kawashima Yoshiko and the 12 child demons who assassinated him that time, although they were defeated by themselves, but they don't know where to go, will they come back and hide in the people again waiting to arrest themselves?
Although he was very bold, he was not at ease, and his heart was worried because he did not want to make a useless sacrifice.
Looking at Nankang again, the old couple who slept very quietly and sweetly, he seemed to have a trace of relief in his heart.
After a few moments, the dogs stopped barking, and the neighing and hooves of the horses were gone.
Ximen Jian thinks what kind of horse team is passing by in this tunzi, right? During the day, you can see two teams of skiers.
At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves and footsteps suddenly sounded outside the door.
Then there was a knock on the door.
Ximen Jian was nervous for a while.
"Dad, mother, open the door!"
It must be the son of the old couple who came back, and Ximen Jian breathed a sigh of relief.
The old man hurriedly put on his padded jacket and went to the outhouse to open the door.
"Dad, we met the little devil today!"
"Shhh
The old man hurriedly interrupted his son's words, lowered his voice and said, "There is a passer-by from a foreign country who lives in our house......"
One of the sons stopped talking.
Then the man unloaded the things from the horse's back and put them in the storehouse in the Westinghouse.
Then, whispering again. However, Ximen Jian's magical ears had already heard very clearly.
Yes? Ximen Jian was shocked again. It turns out that the old man's two sons are all bandits? And they also met little devils on the way.
A son was still excitedly talking to his father about where they were, what they had robbed, and also mentioned their big boss, four beams and eight pillars, and other words that can only be found in bandits......
After a while, the three of them carried a lantern and returned to the east house, the old man went to the south kang, and the two sons went to the north kang.
Because it was almost midnight, they quickly undressed, lay down and went to sleep.
Ximen Jian covered his head with a quilt, lay in it without making a sound, and pretended to snore.
However, his brain was spinning sharply: damn it, it seems that this family is full of bandits.
I wonder if they're bandits or redbeards?
After the third master snored, Ximen Jian suddenly felt that the satin quilt covered with a faint smell of women's rouge.
Hehe, this fragrant quilt must have been robbed from the landlord's mansion, the little daughter-in-law or the eldest lady's boudoir, right?
After a while, Ximen Jian pretended to pee outside, walked into the backyard of the family, and saw his zebra and the horses that the old man's two sons rode back were grazing in the stable.
He went to the Westinghouse warehouse again and looked at the window, and with the help of the moon, he found that a large number of weapons and ammunition were stored inside.
Ximen Jian was even more surprised, and said in his heart that this family was not an ordinary bandit.
After that, he walked back to the house, got into the bed, and thought to himself that he might as well do something when he had the opportunity. Fighting the Timberwolves during the day, it was too hard, too tired, too frightened, and at night living in the bandits' den, how could you sleep peacefully?
However, he was not an ordinary warrior after all, and he actually fell asleep......
The next morning, when Ximen Jian opened his eyes, he suddenly found that his limbs were tied, and they were tied strongly.
"What are you doing here?" Ximen Jian asked suspiciously.
Then, he raised his head and looked at the Nankang, where the old couple and his two sons were sitting on the kang eating, and when they heard Ximen Jian's shout, they knew that he was awake.
"Hehe...... one of the sons sneered and said, "What are you doing?" You know it yourself! When we finish eating, I'll take you to our big boss for a good interrogation, you little traitor! ”
"I'm not a traitor! Which locks are you? ”
"Humph! Isn't it a traitor and asks which one of us we are? One of the sons asked.
"I ...... I'm really not a traitor, I'm also a traitor who kills little devils and traitors. Ximen Jian said, glanced at them, and saw that they were eating very well, "let's da, da" mouth, and lured out his gluttonous worms.
He was about to break free from his ropes with both arms and feet.
At this time, the kind old woman said to her son: "I don't think this half-sized boy is not like a spy of a little devil, so let's let him go and eat some food?" ”
Ximen Jian saw that the old man and the old woman were not bad-eyed, they were very honest and honest with themselves last night, and they were very enthusiastic to themselves, but they didn't expect to be tied up as a traitor this morning?
At this time, seeing that the old woman was discussing with her son to let herself go, she did not continue to break free from the rope.
Although the rope on his body was thick, he also suffered a slight subcutaneous injury. But in fact, it can't tie his hands and feet.
"Hmph, you can't run away!" As he spoke, a son came over and untied Simon Jian.
Another son said, "Tell you, if it weren't for the old lady's intercession, we wouldn't have loosened your bonds, and starved you little traitor to death." ”
Ximen Jian knew that he couldn't understand the words with them, so he didn't squeak, nodded, and said in his heart that Lao Tzu was hungry, and he would reason with you after eating.
However, after the meal, a few young men suddenly came in from outside, and they took Ximen Jian away without saying anything.
Ximen Jian didn't break free, and he didn't talk nonsense with them, he thought Lao Tzu wanted to see where you are sacred, and where did you want to take Lao Tzu?
