The little carpenter looked up and found that there was a blue-shirted girl standing outside the wall, but it was Miss Xiaoya of the Liu family.

I hadn't seen him for a few days, but she was a little more prominent, combing a big shiny braid, and looking at him with surprise.

For the Liu family, the little carpenter was naturally worried and resentful, after all, his master was calculated, but it was because of the Liu family, but afterwards the Liu family not only did not stand up to help, but also fell into the well, drove him away, not to mention, but also confiscated all the master's money, causing him to live on the streets, and finally "fell into" Wu Banxian.

However, for the girl in front of him, the little carpenter did not have too many negative emotions, after these days of getting along, he knew more about the young lady of the Liu family, and knew that her status in the Liu family was not high, and she was not liked by Master Liu, and no one controlled her, more like a wild girl.

Such Liu Xiaoya will only make people feel distressed.

The little carpenter replied, "Do you have anything to do with me?" ”

Liu Xiaoya said: "After the accident at the construction site of the new house, I couldn't find you, and I asked around, but they refused to tell me, but I know that the county officials will not let you go, and you must still be in the town - they all say that the person who killed Erniu and Lao Ma is your master, but I think they are talking nonsense, your master is such a good person and has the ability, how can he mess around?" Children know this, but why don't adults know? I'm afraid you're wronged, and I want to apologize to you......"

After the incident that day, the little carpenter was wronged, and when he heard Liu Xiaoya's words at this moment, his eyes suddenly became a little red.

However, what she said only represented her position, and had nothing to do with the Liu family, the little carpenter was worried about his own situation, and his anger had long since dissipated, so he was talking about it, and Liu Xiaoya saw the little carpenter, and was sincerely happy, and after apologizing, he asked the little carpenter again, saying Do you live here with Wu Banxian?

The little carpenter said yes, Liu Xiaoya said: "Wu Banxian is a fairy-like character, people say that he is very accurate in fortune-telling, the first five hundred years, the next five hundred years, are all in calculation, the prestige is very high, you are here, Dayong They will not trouble you, it's okay." ”

The little carpenter couldn't help but snort in his heart, thinking about what was good, if he couldn't escape, he would soon become dumb and lame.

If that were the case, what difference would he have between being alive and dead?

However, in the next second, he thought of an idea.

The county officials can't trust it, and the Liu family can't believe it, but in this world, there is another person he trusts the most.

If you can inform him, with his ingenuity, he will definitely be able to think of a way.

I only hope that the address he left before can still be contacted.

The little carpenter asked Liu Xiaoya, can you help and send me a letter?

Liu Xiaoya was strange, saying to send a letter, what kind of letter to send?

The little carpenter said that I have a friend who has a good relationship, and after a while, I will always correspond and talk to each other, but now my master's money and I have been collected by your Liu family, and I have no postage, so I can only ask you to help send it out.

Liu Xiaoya asked, "Are you still literate?" Where to send it? Male or female? ”

The little carpenter replied, "Jiguangfu, it's a man." ”

Liu Xiaoya nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay, I can help you." However, there is no post office in the town, only the trustee goes to the county, and now the world is not very peaceful, and the mail route to Guangfu may not be passable, but I am afraid that you may not be able to send it there. ”

The little carpenter said helplessly: "It's not a hurry, whether you can receive it or not is up to fate." ”

Liu Xiaoya didn't say any more, and the little carpenter immediately returned to the cottage, found a pen and paper on the table where Wu Banxian gave people to approve the text, and wrote in ink - he was literate and taught by his master Lu Da, and Lu Da wrote well because he often needed to draw talismans. The cursive script was passed on to the little carpenter.

Naturally, the letter did not dare to entrust it all and explain the reason, but simply talked about his current situation, as if he was talking about depression and complaining, and even if others saw it, they couldn't see too many problems.

But at the end, he said two greetings that had nothing to do with the text, and these two sentences were the code words agreed upon by the two.

The meaning in it is "I am in trouble, I hope to help".

After writing the letter, the little carpenter made the payment and handed it to Liu Xiaoya, Liu Xiaoya took it, blew the ink, then glanced at it, and said: "How can the words you write be the same as ghost drawings, messy, not neat at all." ”

The little carpenter did not explain much to her, but delivered it to her, and repeatedly told him that this was very important to him, and that he must mail it out.

Seeing that he was so serious, Liu Xiaoya assured him that he would find someone to do it when he went back.

The little carpenter remembered Dayong's prejudice against him, and specifically advised: "You must find someone trustworthy to find out about this matter, and don't let Dayong know, otherwise he will definitely have a branch in the middle." ”

Liu Xiaoya said okay, I'll leave it to my uncle to get it, don't worry, he will definitely not make a mistake.

Hearing this, the little carpenter breathed a sigh of relief.

Liu Xiaoya was still waiting to say something to the little carpenter, but the little carpenter was in a hurry to send the letter, because this was not just a letter, but a hope.

But he didn't want to drive people away, thought about it, went back to the house, took out the wood carving he used to pass the time these days, that is, the statue of the child, handed it to Liu Xiaoya, and said, "Didn't you last time?" To you, although it is not polished, it also represents a part of my heart. ”

Liu Xiaoya is a child's temperament in the end, and she was very happy to get this thing, so she took it and took a look at it, and left happily.

After sending Liu Xiaoya away, the little carpenter returned to the room, went to see the mute again, and saw that he had been busy in the back kitchen, boiling water, and plucking the feathers of the caught chicken, so he was relieved.

At noon, the dumb stewed chicken soup, and when it was brought to the table, it was strong and fragrant, and there was a sweet smell of Chinese medicine.

The mute pointed to the casserole and asked the little carpenter to eat, and the little carpenter invited him to join him, but the dumb man shook his head and picked up the bud rice and pickles next to him and pulled them up.

Obviously, this pot of chicken soup is for the little carpenter, and the dumb has no share.

If it was on weekdays, the little carpenter would have accepted it gladly and feasted on it, but when he heard the conversation between Wu Banxian and the man last night, he couldn't help but be afraid, afraid that the medicinal herbs in this chicken soup might be poison that dumbfounded his throat.

So he insisted on giving food to the mute, but the mute seemed very resistant, and even moved his rice bowl directly and walked to the yard.

The little carpenter was stunned and didn't know what to do.

If you eat it, you may be poisoned.

If you don't eat it, if the dumb man tells Wu Banxian, then the old fox is likely to realize that he has been exposed, and when the time comes, it will be a dead end if he finds help.

Escape, can you escape?

At that moment, the little carpenter Gan 13 felt for the first time the difficulty of life and the difficulty of choice.

For the first time, he lost his appetite for a pot of fragrant, oily chicken soup.

After hesitating for half a minute, the little carpenter finally made a bold decision - he took out a clay pot from the cupboard, poured most of the chicken soup into it, and dismantled the whole chicken inside, put the bones on the table, and threw the chicken into the clay pot, making it all seven, eight, eight

When the little carpenter was working on this, he kept an eye on the outside, but fortunately the dumb man didn't seem to come in and didn't see through it.

After a quarter of an hour the dumb man came in, and the little carpenter went out of the house in the presence of the dumb man, and then he came back quietly, and saw the dumb man go to the table, take up the rest of the chicken broth, drink it with a gulp, and pick up the chicken bones on the ground, put them in his mouth and chew them.

Obviously, he felt that the little carpenter was too wasteful to eat.

Seeing his behavior, the little carpenter was even more puzzled, and he had some doubts - could it be that there is no dumb medicine in this chicken soup, and it was really Wu Banxian who made up for him?

Or maybe the dumb doesn't know?

The little carpenter was full of questions, but he didn't dare to say more, and when the dumb man was finished, and when he went out to collect firewood, he brought out the hidden clay pot, looked at the fragrant chicken and oil soup inside, swallowed his saliva, and finally did not dare to eat it, but poured it into the medicine garden in the backyard, and hid it with soil.

After doing this, there was no one at home, and the little carpenter felt that it was a good opportunity, and his heart could not help beating wildly, and then he went out by surprise.

He didn't know if Wu Banxian had coaxed him, if the old fox really went to the county seat, he would have escaped from the clutches of the enemy at this time, maybe he would be able to escape the clutches of the enemy.

As for Lin Yimin's explanation that he couldn't leave the three hurdles, in front of his life, it was not so important.

This is a mess, he is an inconsequential descendant, who will pay attention?

The little carpenter came out of the cottage and went out into the street, and he walked for a while, trying to find an opportunity to get out of the town and out of here, but after a while he stopped again.

He sensed that someone was following him, so he looked for an opportunity, and inadvertently turned around, and saw a fierce-looking, burly young man, following him from a distance, although there was not much evidence, the little carpenter still felt that this person was most likely the apprentice in the mouth of his cheap uncle.

That guy is a habitual murderer, and even Wu Banxian is a little scared.

When he appeared here, it must be that his uncle was not at ease, so he specially found him to follow him, it is conceivable that if he ran away, that person would follow and solve himself.

Thinking about it like this, instead of losing his life, it is better to be false and wronged here in Wu Banxian.

After all, he is not a ruthless person, after a long time on the streets of the town, and went to the construction site of the Liu family's new house to walk around, and in the afternoon, he found that the person had followed behind, so he went back to Wu Banxian's cottage, and he just entered the house, and saw that the old fox was waiting for him, after the two said hello, the old fox smiled and asked: "The chicken soup at noon is still delicious?" ”
