"Yes, yes," Duan Laosan patted his head, "I seem to hear them call that fat young master 'Mi Gongzi', this morning, the fat boy suffered a loss, he still has dogs, all let the Taoist masters chase after him, those old Taoists are really powerful." Master Hu, the big housekeeper, I saw these anyway, and I don't know if it's useless, since you let me report something, I'll report it. ”

"Very good, if you encounter something like this in the future, you will report it." Shang Cheng also patted Duan Laosan on the shoulder to show encouragement.

Dafeng was bored in the inn, Shi Suo hurriedly ran over and told her about Chen Dade, Dafeng didn't say a word, so he immediately got up and went to the front door of Zhang's mansion according to Duan Laosan's order, Ah Qiu had to go with her, the two girls went out of the inn, Ah Qiu carried a burden, loaded with needles and threads, rag thimbles and other things, and said: "The two of us pretend to be poor, otherwise, there is no serious business, and it is easy to make people suspicious." ”

"Yes, yes, you're wonderful."

The women who are "poor sewn" are at the bottom of the society, setting up stalls on the streets to do sewing business to pedestrians, making a few meager small money, but the weather is still cold, and there are even fewer poor sewing people on the streets. Dafeng and Ah Qiu covered their faces with old turbans, and sat down a hundred and ten steps away from Zhang's mansion, pretending to wait for business, staring at the movement at the door.

The weather was cold, and the two sat for a while, but no business came to the door. Ah Qiu was idle, and sewed an embroidered purse for Dafeng, with fine needle angles and beautiful shapes, Dafeng praised and said: "Ah Qiu, you are so coincidental, this purse is so beautiful." ”

"What is this, my mother is a tailor and taught me to sew clothes since I was a child, but unfortunately, that year I was recruited by Shang Huaiqing to make clothes in the house, this old livestock had bad intentions and wanted to violate my mother, my mother stabbed him with scissors, and he was beaten to death by the guards in the house." Speaking of this, Ah Qiu's eyes turned red again.

Seeing that it aroused Ah Qiu's sadness, Dafeng quickly turned the conversation and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, you will be with us in the future, there will be many of us, and sooner or later we will be able to avenge you." ”

"Hmm."

"Click, click," there was a soft sound from a distance, and a blind man came from the corner of the street, tapping the ground with a bamboo pole, and slowly walked this way. The bamboo pole knocked on the ground and made a soft clicking sound. The blind man carried a burden on his back, and walked slowly, but steadily. Ah Qiu looked at it for a while and said, "This blind man can see things. ”

"Really?" Dafeng looked at it for a while, "Why can't I see it, since he can see it, why is he still using a bamboo pole to explore the way?" ”

"A real blind man can't walk straight, but with the terrain, he turns around. Just like our tailors, whether the needle is straight or not is the standard for measuring craftsmanship, you see, he hits the ground with a bamboo pole, just to prove that he can't see, and the gait, the trajectory of walking, is no different from us ordinary people, just a little slower. ”

The blind man walked over slowly, and something that surprised the two girls even more appeared, and behind the blind man, quietly followed by two people, who tiptoed and approached the blind man from behind.

"Oops, the two of them are going to plot against the blind." Dafeng said.

"I don't know who wins and who loses," Ah Qiu whispered, "Look at the blind man's clothes." ”

"What's wrong with the clothes?" Dafeng didn't see anything. The blind man was dressed in an ordinary gray cotton robe, and he couldn't see anything unusual.

"His cuffs are at least an inch and a half wider than the cotton clothes we ordinary people wear, and now it is winter, and the bigger the cuffs, the more wind is poured in, the colder it will be, so this cuff is specially made to make it easier to hide things. You see, his hand is retracted, and he must have been prepared. ”

"Ah Qiu, you tailor is so powerful."

The blind man was still walking unhurriedly, as if he was unaware of the danger behind him, Dafeng suddenly remembered the blind man that Man Bohua said, and the blind man that the tinker saw, the one in front of him, is it the one they described?

"Look, it's done." Ah Qiu whispered.

The two people behind the blind man had chased less than two steps away at this time, and at the same time rushed towards the blind man, but they saw the blind man flash to the side, flexibly took a big stride, threw his right arm back, and waved his wide sleeves in the wind, playing a "sleeve in the sleeve", and the two attackers did not touch the blind man's body, but "ouch ouch" twice, and fell to the ground at the same time.

The blind man glanced back and smiled.

Ah Qiu whispered: "Dafeng, look, he can see it, right?" ”

"Well, he's not blind."

Although the two girls saw that the blind man was pretending, but how he knocked down the two enemies, they didn't see clearly, the blind man's right hand was shrunk in the sleeve, whether it was a sleeve arrow thrown out, or a dark dart, because there were still dozens of steps away, but it was invisible. After seeing the blind man sneering twice, he continued to walk forward, disdainful of the wounded behind him. Walking all the way, the bamboo pole in his hand still made a soft sound of "click, click," and walked in front of Dafeng and Ah Qiu's eyes all the way, and walked into the distance.

At this time, the two people who were knocked down also got up with a snort, one holding his stomach and the other covering his thighs, and began to complain to each other, and the other said: "Look, I said that there are a few more people, you have to do it, how about it, you hurt someone, it tastes pretty good, right?" The other said, "What is the use of ten more for a man as stupid as you, who is as slow as a snail?" "Nonsense, you move fast, why are you lying on the ground, the next time you go back to the beacon, if there are few people, I won't go anyway." Ouch, ****** hurt to death. The two men kept arguing, and turned away crookedly.

The two girls couldn't help but laugh in amusement. However, after waiting for a long time, people came and went in Zhang's mansion, but there was no shadow of Chen Dade. It wasn't until late afternoon that I saw a few drunken officers walking out of the gate of the mansion, Shang Cheng accompanying him, and one of the officers looked like Chen Dade.

"There will be a date later." Shang Cheng said goodbye to several officers. The officers also "will meet later" and "see you another day" and rode their horses in a chaotic manner and headed down the street. Dafeng and Ah Qiu quietly closed the stall and followed behind these officers.

The group of officers went straight out of the city, to the south, after leaving the city, the road was wide, the horses galloped, the speed was very fast, Dafeng and Ah Qiu chased closely behind, at first, Dafeng was worried that Ah Qiu could not keep up, but soon found that Ah Qiu's slender body ran very briskly, followed by his side, his face was not red, he was not panting, and exclaimed: "No wonder Shi Suo praised you for your good skills, and attacked the Zhang Mansion alone at night, and beat the two strong men who guarded the courtyard to climb together." ”

"What, Brother Shi and Brother Duan are good skills, if it weren't for them, I wouldn't be able to get out. Thinking about that night, it was really dangerous, but my dad was trapped inside, and what could he do but bite the bullet. ”

The first few horses, wading up a cloud of smoke, it was quite easy to track, chasing for a long time, after all, people could not outrun the horses, the two girls were panting, sweat on their foreheads. Ahead, the horses turned a corner and turned off a side road.

"So they went there." Taiho shouted, "Cherry blossom forest." ”

Several officers on horseback ran along the fork in the road to a vast forest, in the woods, looking from afar, a little pink flowers, in the gray land in early spring, it looks very beautiful and lovely, this woods, is the cherry blossom forest.

"Ah, it's pretty." Ah Qiu pointed to the cherry blossoms in the distance, "It's not in bloom yet, it's blooming so early." ”

Dafeng knew that he couldn't go any further, there were sentinels guarding the woods. Only then did she suddenly realize that in this cherry blossom forest, there must be a military base, or she would have gone in to see the flowers that day and was stopped by the soldiers. (To be continued.) )
