Chapter 996: Coming Home
Passing through the mountains and forests, I returned to the official road just now, and I saw their carriage from a distance, and it was still parked there, and there were two people guarding on the side, also dressed as bandits.
Tiankuo and Gu Zelin sat on the horse and followed Chen Qiuchi to the carriage, Chen Qiuchi turned the horse's head and pointed to the carriage, "Your things are here, I'll let you show them, it's not a little less, hurry up and drive the carriage home, this section is still our Hengling territory, since I saved you, I will send the Buddha to the west, and I will escort you to a safe place and go back." ”
Gu Zelin and Tiankuo didn't refuse, but thanked them again, Gu Zelin drove the carriage forward, and the thieves really followed behind, protecting them all the time.
When Tiankuo turned around again, he didn't see anyone anymore, and he didn't know when the other party left.
Looking at it like this, it should have been to a safe place, and there will be no more danger, at least the hand of the Hengling bandit can't reach here, otherwise he probably won't go back.
At this point, Tiankuo breathed a sigh of relief, "Today's incident is really like a dream, Dad, I'm really frightened." ”
Gu Zelin said, "Me too, who knew that we would get into trouble with such a person, we helped others yesterday, and today we got into trouble for ourselves, but if you want to say that the next time you encounter such a thing on the road, will you make a move, then of course it will, we are also ordinary people, we just want to live a stable life, see the same people, how can we bear to leave directly?" It's just that you have to be more vigilant in the future and don't let yourself get into trouble. ”
Tiankuo nodded, "Dad is right." ”
Gu Zelin said again, "The person who saved us just now is also a thief, why do you say he wants to save us?" ”
Tiankuo shook his head, "I don't know, Dad, I just saw that the man was quite young, but he could scare those who chased us, it seems that his status in Hengling is not low, as for why he wants to help us, I can't say for sure, maybe it's just a close eye, maybe I'm in a good mood today, and I saved it, but I just said that I would repay him, and I also keep this in mind, no matter what, he did save us today, no matter what else, just in terms of saving lives, we should indeed repay it." ”
Gu Zelin said, you should remember this kindness, but he just said that if you want to repay him, you will go to Hengling, so your father can't let you go, what kind of place is Hengling, there are thousands of thieves on the mountain, if you want to go, you can still come out alive? You can't go to such a dangerous place, and if you meet him elsewhere in the future, let's thank you, but if you go to that mountain, it's better to let this kindness be owed all the time, and you are not allowed to come nonsense. ”
Tiankuo smiled, "I know Dad, I won't come nonsense." ”
He appeased Gu Zelin, but he was thinking in his heart, somehow, he felt that the person just now was not a bad person, although he said that he was a thief, he also believed that he was indeed a thief, but maybe he was a good thief.
Tiankuo felt that he was enchanted, and he would think like this, today is also a meeting in Pingshui, the other party did save his life, but he can't be so gullible, but he can't help but think about the other party better.
Today, they were so frightened that they didn't dare to stop, so they stopped by a restaurant and bought a few steamed buns to eat on the way, and continued to hurry.
In the afternoon, he arrived in the town, and after going out for so long, he finally came back again, Tiankuo felt very kind, Gu Zelin's speed increased, and he hurriedly went home, and it didn't take long to arrive in the village.
As soon as their carriage entered the village, the villagers put a few firecrackers at the entrance of the village, and Tiankuo came back, this is a big deal, Tongxin Village has never produced a champion, counting up, that is, there have been two Tongjinshi origins, and they are already from the previous dynasty, champions, that is not something that ordinary people can do.
Tiankuo is not born to the Gu family, many people were still gossiping behind their backs, saying that the Gu family had spare money, raised a picked up child, and was so good to him, and in the future, people will have the ability, they may not be able to remember you, and there are not a few people who laugh at the Gu family behind their backs.
And now it's completely the other way around, many people say that the Gu family is blessed, and they can pick up such a powerful child by picking up a child on the side of the road.
There are also people who don't want to mention that Tiankuo is not a child of the Gu family at all, because Tiankuo's top prize in the examination is very beneficial to Tongxin Village, and when he says it, the faces of the entire village of Tongxin Village are bright.
It is also easier for these young men and women in the village to marry, and they can directly choose better families.
Although this champion is not out of his own home, but there are a lot of benefits, if he keeps saying that Tiankuo is picked up, what good will it do them?
In the past few days, it is estimated that Tiankuo is coming back, and the smiles on the faces of many people in the village who can't hide them are even happier than the Gu family.
Today, everyone decided to set off firecrackers at the entrance of the village, and even the firecrackers were bought by themselves, which shows how happy they are.
Tiankuo didn't expect that he would be treated as soon as he entered the village, sitting on the wheel, everyone praised him, and he was immediately embarrassed.
People can't talk to you without replying, you can only thank you all the way, and you can finally get up to speed after walking a long way.
Gu Zelin drove the carriage, and really wanted to go home immediately, when passing by Lin's house, Gu Zelin also asked, "Do you want to meet his son first, I know you have been thinking about it for a long time." ”
Tiankuo scratched his head, "Dad, I'll go home first, grandparents are also chattering, and I'll come to his sister later." ”
His clothes are torn, and there are wounds on his face, so how worried is his sister looking like this? He'll have to go home and change his clothes.
Soon arrived at Gu's house, and there were a lot of people guarding the door of Gu's house to watch the excitement, he got off the carriage, and many people stepped forward to congratulate him, some were older than Tiankuo, and even elders, where could Tiankuo afford this ceremony? Hurry back.
When he arrived at the door, he couldn't enter the house immediately, there were too many people, and finally he successfully entered his own yard, there were still people here, and those who were close to him were sitting in the yard, even Gu Pinghua and Song Bin were back.
I didn't know how to expect it to be so accurate, to be able to wait here before he got home.
The relatives of the Wang family and the Zhu family also came, and they called people next to each other, and their voices were almost hoarse, and they finally took care of these people one by one.
The people around him scattered, and Wang saw Tiankuo, seeing that his clothes were torn and there were abrasions on his face, Wang quickly asked, "What's wrong?" Why is it still hurting? Did you fall off the carriage? ”
