Chapter 154: Encountering Bandits
Cough! It's really troublesome to walk with this delicate lady! If you were to walk with a woman from a poor family, what else could you do? Like his wife Liu Xinyi, she runs outside all day to interview and write manuscripts, and she has never heard her complain. Lin Yi, www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" Pavilion, was helpless, looked at the intersection in front of him, there was a small restaurant, and said to Gao Suhong: "Madam, let's go to the restaurant in front of us to have some food and then leave!" It's already afternoon, and I'm hungry! As he spoke, he helped Gao Suhong slowly walk to a table outside the restaurant and sat down, called out of the store and asked for two bowls of noodles and two side dishes, and sat and waited.
Gao Suhong sat down tiredly, rubbed her ankle lightly with her hand, and there was a look of pain on her face, it turned out that the young wife's shoes were relatively small, and the stitches were not handled well, and there was a hole in it, and there was gravel in it, so her feet hurt.
Lin Yi's heart moved, he got up and walked into the hotel, only to see the store and his wife were busy in the room, so he stepped forward and said to the two: "Shopkeeper, discuss something with you, my wife's shoes don't fit, you see, if your lady has new shoes, can you sell me a pair, I will pay a hundred yuan." ”
This thing is really a coincidence, it just so happened that the lady of the store made a pair of cloth shoes last month, and she was reluctant to wear them, and at this time she heard that the guests were going to buy them at a high price, so she happily ran into the back room, found them, and handed them to Lin Yi.
Lin Yi looked at it and saw that the size of the made was about the same size as Gao Suhong's feet, so he bought them for a hundred yuan, walked outside, and handed the newly bought shoes to Gao Suhong.
"Put it on! Change your shoes and your feet won't hurt! Lin Yi said with a smile.
Gao Suhong glanced at him, smoothly took off his old shoes, put on new ones, walked a few steps, and said happily: "These shoes are not big or small, they are just right, Dog Officer, is there really yours?" ”
Lin Yi smiled, although Gao Suhong was screaming at himself, but he was used to barking, so he didn't take it to heart, and said to Gao Suhong: "I have already asked, there are still twenty-five miles away from Fucheng, let's have eaten, let's hurry up and get on the road!" Aim to get into town before it gets dark! ”
Gao Suhong nodded, at this time, the store happened to deliver the food, the two sat at the table to eat together, after eating, Lin Yi repaid the meal money, and Gao Suhong got up and was just about to leave, when suddenly hundreds of people came out of the east road behind the hotel, all wearing red scarves, wearing strong suits, holding various weapons in their hands, some people also rode high-headed horses, pulling big carts and small carts, and the cars were stacked with grain, cloth, and large and small burdens.
"Oops! I ran into the bandits of Qinglong Mountain who went down the mountain to fight the autumn wind! The shopkeeper exclaimed, turned around and ran back to the store, called out his wife, and the two of them ran away in a panic, but they didn't expect to be seen by the bandits. One of the leaders shouted loudly with a knife point: "Come on, go and catch the two of them, don't let them run away." ”
Several fast horses rushed forward and intercepted the couple back, and several bandits ordered them to kneel on the ground. Lin Yi was also startled, and hurriedly pulled Gao Suhong, pulled her against the wall, and stood honestly with her head down. Gao Suhong's silky little hand tightly grasped one of Lin Yi's big hands, and her body trembled slightly, obviously extremely nervous and scared in her heart.
Which leader, got off the horse, sat on a bench in front of the door like a golden knife, held his big knife with both hands, looked at the shopkeeper and the couple with his eyes and said: "You don't have to run, Lao Tzu has fought here today, in fact, he came specifically to find you and his wife." Listen to my brothers on the mountain, your two of you cook very good food, so go up the mountain with us and cook for us! ”
"Hero! I can't help it! My wife has a 60-year-old mother and a teenage child, and if we are gone, how will they live! Please be gracious, heroes! The shopkeeper pleaded with a bitter face.
The bandit leader was suddenly annoyed, opened his eyes, and shouted: "What, you dare not go, when do we people from Qinglong Mountain speak, when does it not count?" Come on, cut them down for me right away! Tell them not to go? ”
"Hero I'm going...... I'll ......," the shopkeeper agreed with a sad face, and the expression on his face was almost crying.
Which bandit leader, with a smug smile on his face, suddenly glanced at Lin Yi and Gao Suhong hiding aside, standing with their heads bowed, looking cowering, then turned his head and asked, "Hey!" What do you two do? What are you doing standing here? ”
Lin Yi saw that he couldn't hide, so he had to step forward and bow down and say, "This hero, our husband and wife are going to the village in front to visit relatives, because we are hungry, so we sit here for a light meal." ”
The leader of the bandits, looking at him, asked, "What are you doing?" What do you do for a living? ”
Ah! If you answer that you are a farmer, a worker, and a bandit leader, you can guess that you are panicking just by looking at your delicate hands. If you say that you are a reader, there are not many people who can read books these years, and many bandits are still their fellow villagers, just ask, and they will be exposed! Lin Yi thought about it for a while, pretended to be honest, and said with a smile: "This hero brother, in fact, I am a buddy of the Great Jin Shang Yongsheng, who is in charge of bookkeeping. ”
This Yongsheng is a big business in the Hebei and Shanxi areas of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there are many guys, there are three or four branches in Zhengding Mansion alone, and many of the guys inside are hired from the outside state capital, so they are naturally not afraid of them to inquire.
When the bandit leader heard this, his face immediately showed joy, and he laughed: "This is really a coincidence, we have a tent man on Qinglong Mountain, who just died, and our big boss is worried that no one will take care of the treasury and accounts on the mountain?" Boy, I see that you are quite clever, so I will lift you up the mountain and join the gang! ”
Yes! What a flying disaster! Lin Yi was suddenly stunned, this thousand beware, ten thousand be careful, I didn't expect to step on a mine!
"Big brother! Eldest brother! You can see if you can be accommodating and let us go as a couple! Our one-year-old son can't go up the mountain to join the gang! Lin Yi pleaded with a bitter face.
Which bandit leader was immediately annoyed, and shouted with a straight face: "What? How dare you not go? Come on, cut them off for me right away! ”
"I'll go! I'll go! Lin Yi hurriedly stepped forward and pulled the corner of his clothes and begged.
The leader of the bandits smiled triumphantly: "It's almost the same, come on, tell them to go together!" With that, he walked up to the horse, rolled over and climbed onto the horse.
Gao Suhong was very annoyed in her heart, walked up to Lin Yi, stared at him with hateful eyes, and complained in a low voice: "You dog official, what are you talking about, you only said that you are a farmer and a dung picker, didn't he let us go?" Are you really useless? ”
I didn't want to, but the bandit vaguely listened to this, and immediately turned around and asked, "Hey! Little lady, what did you just say about dogs? (To be continued.) )
