When it was almost noon, He Yuan walked over, pretended to buy oranges, and asked, "How is it?" ”

"No movement. It was as if it were dead in the inn, and no one entered or came out. ”

"Since they're inside, it's impossible to stay in the inn all the time and not come out. Don't worry, fishing is the most tempering patience. After He Yuan finished speaking, he walked away again.

Sure enough, at noon, a few people came out of the inn, and Duan Laosan shouted even harder, "Fresh oranges, big and sweet." ”

A man in a suit beckoned to Duan Laosan, "Sell oranges, come here." ”

Duan Laosan slowly pushed up the wheelbarrow and walked over, and the people in front of him were the guests who went to the banquet at the Shuntiande Restaurant yesterday, a burly man with a big beard, and a shiny iron whip in his hand, and his head was sweating, as if he had just finished performing martial arts.

"Yo, this orange is really enough." A female voice was Hong Lingzi, he walked towards the wheelbarrow step by step, and smiled charmingly at the big man with the iron whip, "Yo, Zhang Da, are you going to have a treat today?" ”

The big man "Zhang Da Man" snorted and flashed to the side, as if he hated Hong Lingzi, "If you want to eat oranges, just eat them." ”

Hong Lingzi lowered his head and picked oranges in the basket, Duan Laosan couldn't stop boasting, "All of them are fresh, not sweet, no money." His eyes glanced into the distance, and He Yuan stood at the corner of the street and nodded to him.

From the other side of the alley, the disguised Thor wore a black blouse, a melon skin hat, and a long-pole cigarette pouch in his hand, like a broker and a housekeeper of a large family, whistling in his mouth, walked over step by step, walked behind Duan Laosan, and patted him on the shoulder.

"Third," said Thor, "where is the little girl you are talking about?" Our lord said he wanted to buy it, but you brought it. ”

Duan Laosan raised his head. "Wait a minute, I'll finish selling the oranges."

"Who has the leisure to wait for you," Thor said with a dissatisfied expression, "a country girl." I can't live anymore, our lord is willing to take it in, so he will give you a lot of face, don't be ignorant. Love to sell or not to sell. ”

"You wait a minute, I don't see I'm busy." Duan Laosan was busy taking the scales to weigh oranges for Hong Lingzi and others.

Red Lingzi stared at Thor. "What little girl did you just say, who wants to sell it?"

Thor carried a cigarette pouch, shaking his head, and was a house slave who tended to be inflammatory, "A stinky girl in the countryside, she can't afford to live, she sells herself, it's him, this orange seller in their village, our lord wants to buy it." Who knows if they're still Rory's wordy. You buy your oranges, it's none of your business. ”

Hong Lingzi's eyes flashed, and he said to Duan Laosan: "Where is the little girl, take me to see." ”

"I've already said I'll sell it to him," Duan Laosan pointed to Thor and handed over a bag of oranges, "Your oranges, give, take it." ”

"Take me to the little girl," said Hong Lingzi.

"Good, good." Duan Laosan hurriedly finished weighing the oranges, and said with a nagging mouth: "What's the hurry, the little girl is quite sensible, if it weren't for the fact that the family really couldn't afford to live." Who wants to stick a straw label on their heads, by the way, I said both of you, do you want to buy it? The girl's family can tell me that there is more money and less money, but it is better to discuss. But you have to find a good family, don't be offended, don't be beaten......"

"Why do you have so many stinky rules?" Thor's eyes widened.

Duan Laosan pushed the wheelbarrow and led Thor and Hong Lingzi to the market next to him. Because it was close to noon, the market was full of people, but it was quite lively, Duan Laosan continued to nag while walking, "It's not that I have many rules, a good little girl, smart and sensible, of course I want to find a good family, I promised their family, I have to help to the end......"

"I have a good family here," Hong Lingzi said, "The food and clothing are the best, and there is not much work to do, so I promise not to beat or scold, just like I treat my own daughter." ”

Thor glared at Hong Lingzi, "People, but we took a fancy to it first." ”

"Hmph," Hong Lingzi rolled his eyelids and ignored him.

On the corner of the city, Li Mei was standing there, she also put on makeup, painted into a yellow and thin face, wearing a torn cotton jacket with patches and patches, and stood there pitifully with her sleeves covered, shivering in the cold wind.

Duan Laosan put down the wheelbarrow, "Look, how handsome the little girl is, and she is sensible, she has known since she was a child that she feels sorry for her father, if it weren't for the disaster at home, she wouldn't have taken this road, alas, it's all to blame for the poverty in our village, what can be done, this world is ......"

Hong Lingzi circled around Li Mei and nodded, "Okay, I want it." ”

Thor was not happy, "What do you want, is there another one who comes first and comes?" ”

Li Mei glanced at Hong Lingzi timidly, then at Thor again, and lowered her head. Hong Lingzi next to him came over and took Li Mei's hand, "Little girl, come with me, the price will be generous to you." ”

Li Mei lowered her head and did not squeak. The Thor next to him jumped over and pulled Li Mei over, Li Mei was dragged to a stumble, screamed, Thor slammed his arm, carried Li Mei on his shoulder, and ran away.

"Hey, what are you doing," Duan Laosan shouted: "There is something to discuss, how can you rob it?" Stop it. ”

"******," Hong Lingzi scolded, and chased after him, Duan Laosan pushed the wheelbarrow, "Stop, put down, don't rob people." He pushed the car, ran slowly, and soon fell behind, and the people in the market watched the scene, some gathered around to watch the excitement, some pointed at it, and some laughed.

Thor carried Li Mei, "slipped out", and got into a small alley, Hong Lingzi walked and shook his waist and looked like a woman, but he ran fast, Thor shook his long legs, strode and ran hard, but the distance between him and Hong Lingzi was getting closer and closer. Duan Laosan's voice kept coming from behind: "Stop, don't rob people, let me ......"

Hong Lingzi ran a few steps and grabbed Li Mei, "Stop me." ”

As soon as Li Mei stretched out her hand, she also grabbed Hong Lingzi, Hong Lingzi was taken aback and felt that something was wrong, Li Mei had already straightened her waist and jumped off Thor's shoulder, and at the same time, Thor turned around and punched Hong Lingzi.

Fooled. Hong Lingzi secretly screamed in his heart, the small alley he was in now was very narrow, less than five feet wide, and it was inconvenient to move, he hurriedly shrank back, avoiding Thor's fist. Li Mei kicked it, and Hong Lingzi lowered her head and twisted her waist, dodging it, but she almost fell. Seeing that this little girl who was "pitiful" just now was so agile, he knew that he must have fallen into a well-designed trap, and he couldn't help but be afraid, and he didn't dare to fight again, so he turned around and ran.

Hutong mouth. Duan Laosan was pushing a wheelbarrow and running over, the alley was already narrow, and the wheelbarrow was just blocking the way, Hong Lingzi's mind turned, knowing that this eighty percent of the orange sellers also had a problem, his eyes widened, he ran two steps, jumped up suddenly, jumped up one person high, and jumped straight above Duan Laosan and his wheelbarrow.

Watching the red spirit son come quickly. Duan Laosan also admired it in his heart, this sissy guy, he really started to move, and he was really not ambiguous at all, but Duan Laosan was tall, and he raised his hand, which was enough to be ** feet high, and he grabbed Hong Lingzi with one hand, and Hong Lingzi was in the air, flying and kicking Duan Laosan's head. Duan Laosan turned his head and turned his arms, he was tall and powerful, and the red spirit was like a kite with a broken string. Fell to the ground.

This fell hard, Hong Lingzi gasped and couldn't get up, Li Mei's figure flashed, and she ran closer, afraid that Hong Lingzi would scream, and kicked him in the temple. The red spirit fainted.

At the other end of the alley, a flatbed truck came in, the car was full of firewood and grass, the alley was narrow, the flatbed almost occupied the alley, and the stone lock who pulled the cart said to Thor and others while running: "Quick." ”

Thunder God picked up the red spirit and ran to the side of the firewood and grass car, everyone stuffed the red spirit into the firewood and grass, and the stone lock pulled up the car and ran out.

The flatbed truck came out of the alley, and Shi Suo remembered He Yuan's instructions and didn't dare to go too fast. Look at the street, there are few pedestrians, and a few GIs walk by in the distance, but a rustic young man pulling a grass cart does not attract special attention.

Walking through a junction, there is a thatched house, next to a horse-drawn carriage, the carriage is loaded with a large wooden box, five or six feet long, occupying the carriage compartment, this is a dung truck, the carriage is often full of dung, the smell is stinking, people generally see this kind of dung cart and hide far away. Shi Suo saw that no one was paying attention outside, pulled the flatbed truck to the middle of the dung truck and the thatched house, and used the cover of the dung truck to pull out the red spirit in the firewood and grass and stuff it into the wooden box of the dung truck.

Gai took a manure scoop on his head, walked out of the thatched house, saw that the stone lock had been "loaded into the car", nodded, hung the manure scoop on the carriage, raised the horsewhip, and the carriage walked forward. Stone Lock pushed the flatbed cart and followed the carriage far behind.

The smell of the dung truck was unpleasant, and the head of the cover himself felt nauseous and vomited, and the pedestrians dodged along the way, and when they walked to the city gate, the soldiers guarding the city did not look at it, covered their noses and waved their hands, and the dung truck quickly walked out of the city. Behind, Shi Suo pulled the flatbed car, Duan Laosan pushed the wheelbarrow, and Thor God, Li Mei and others all pulled away, one after another, and went out of the city gate one after another.

After Duan Laosan lured Hong Lingzi away, calm returned to the vicinity of the Jin'an Inn. About a hundred meters away from the inn, Dalong and Dafeng walked over.

Dalong had a burden on his back, and at noon, it was time to eat, and the street was very quiet. Dafeng looked around, "Okay, no one." ”

Dalong took off the burden on his back and took out a wooden crossbow from it, which looked similar to an ordinary crossbow, except that the wooden tray was filled with steel springs and the crossbow strings were much thicker, and he took out a bamboo arrow, on which he was wearing a piece of paper.

"It's too far, okay?" Dafeng said suspiciously.

"No problem." Dalong said, seeing that there was no one outside, he put the bamboo arrow on the crossbow, pulled the string full, and when he released the trigger, the bamboo arrow flew forward with a "whoosh", the speed was extremely fast, and the wooden crossbow made a soft sound of "boom".

"This crossbow is so powerful," Dafeng praised.

The bamboo arrow flew over a distance of dozens of meters and stuck on the door frame of the Jin'an Inn.

"Hit, run." Dafeng said.

The sister and brother turned into the small alley, ran away, turned around, picked a remote place and ran through two streets, and when they got out of the street, the little wit flashed out and asked, "How is it?" ”

"No problem," said the dragon, slowing down and taking a breath, "Shoot an arrow, what's the matter." ”

"I mean, did the enemy in the inn chase after you?"

"I don't know, I guess you didn't see us." The big dragon took off the burden of the crossbow on his back, stuffed it into the broken pocket where the little ghost asked for food, and took off his blouse, revealing a torn cotton jacket with patches inside, and the little ghost put on a broken hat with a missing edge, and the big dragon became a little beggar.

"Alright, it's like." Dafeng looked at the two "little beggars" in front of him: "You guys continue to monitor here, I'm going out of the city." I don't know if the red spirit was shipped out. ”

"Hmm." The little clever man stuffed the broken sack with the crossbow into a pile of rotten wood by the side of the road, and then, together with the dragon, pretended to beg for food along the street, and walked forward.

Dafeng tidied up her clothes, turned around and walked in the direction of the city gate, walked a few steps away, turned onto the street, and a few soldiers came on the opposite side, she quickened her pace, and the soldiers didn't care about this ordinary village girl-like person, and continued to walk forward, one by one with guns, as if they were chasing someone, and the sparse pedestrians on the street saw the appearance of the soldiers, and they all dodged.

Dafeng went out of the city gate smoothly, trotted, ran to a river outside the city, bypassed a bush, she saw a dung truck, parked there, but there was no one next to the car, pinched her nose and approached the dung truck, and saw that the dung box was empty. Only one long scoop was hung outside the compartment.

Holding her breath, she quickly ran away and walked onto the weed-covered path, seeing some muddy water stains along the way, which also emitted a stench, and thought to herself, "How disgusting it was when Shi Suo brought the red spirit out of the dung truck." ”

Ahead, in the barren grass and reeds, there is a small river, the water in it is covered with thin ice, there are a few people by the water, it is He Yuan, Thor, Duan Laosan, Li Mei covered her nose, stood far away, saw Dafeng running over, shouted: "Sister Feng, don't go over, it's too stinky." ”

Shi Suo is carrying the red spirit son from the river to come up, the red spirit of the body is still dripping with water, it seems that the stone lock to take a bath, in the winter ice water soaking, its cold can be imagined, the red spirit of the body trembling like a dead leaf in the wind, he wiped the ice ballast on his face with his hand, his face was pale.

He Yuan squatted on the ground and smoked a dry cigarette, and asked Hong Lingzi: "Mr. Hong, it's not very comfortable, right?" Have you ever thought about how the children you stole and snatched away felt at home? When you trick others and harm others, do you ever think that you will be punished? ”

Shi Suo put the red spirit son covered in ice water on the ground, "Brother, originally, I put you in the river, so I shouldn't have brought it up again, people like you are not wronged to die eight times, but now we have something to discuss, if you cooperate well and beg everyone, it is possible to surround your life." ”

"Yes, yes," Hong Lingzi said with a tremor of her lips. His cotton robe was completely soaked, and although the fecal water on his body had been washed off, it was far more painful than dung soup in the cold winter. (To be continued.) )
