Chapter 20: Broken Temples and Hidden Babies
The other also echoed: "Isn't it, speaking of which, the flower girl is still a little famous, saying that it is the first ...... in Yichun Courtyard."
Before he could finish his words, he was covered by another one, and scolded: "You bastard, why do you say everything!" ”
This is not a big man in front of him, he dares to say anything meaty, and he is not ashamed!
Gu Jiu had already understood what was going on from the mouths of the two, but when he heard the vulgar words, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
She coughed and asked, "What...... Can the old gentleman confess? ”
Hearing this, the old cell boss from before immediately said with disdain: "That old man is very strong, the certified physical evidence is there, he still doesn't admit it, but it's okay, after the trial starts tomorrow, he can't help it!" ”
When he said this, he asked suspiciously: "Little lady, what do you have to do with him?" ”
Gu Jiu shook his head, although he had only seen it once, he always felt that this old Taoist priest didn't look like some kind of traitorous person.
She begged twice, but when she saw that the cell boss really wouldn't let her in, she had to thank her and leave.
She only took two steps, but she suddenly stopped, and then remembered the words of the old Taoist priest: "Mountain Temple." ”
Under such circumstances, why did he insist that he want to go to the mountain temple tomorrow?
Could it be that there is something there?
At this time, it was already past noon, except for eating something in the morning, she still hadn't eaten water, but thinking of that person's words, Gu Jiu had a gut feeling that something was wrong, and she didn't care about filling her stomach, so she went to the mountain temple again.
It's just that Gu Jiu didn't expect that he would encounter such a sudden thing in the mountain temple.
After staring at the milk doll in his arms for a while, the other party made the first move: "Wow......"
The four or five-month-old milk doll is weak and weak in crying, and this sobbing appearance makes Gu Jiu very doubtful that the other party will choke to death without breathing.
She hurriedly coaxed the other party, but her mind was at a loss.
How did things get to this point?
She was just uneasy when she remembered the words of the old Taoist priest, so she planned to come to this mountain temple to take a look, but she saw that in the dilapidated and barren temple, there was a place that was carefully covered with a straw pile, and inside, something seemed to be moving.
She vigilantly went to investigate, but she was prepared for the worst, but she didn't expect that inside was a small doll wrapped in a futon.
Probably because of malnutrition, the little doll's face was a little sallow, but the eyes were as bright as jewels, and when he saw her, he even stretched out his hand to herself.
The next moment, Gu Jiu picked up the child by mistake, and then, after he reached out to grab his clothes to no avail, he turned on the ghost crying wolf howl mode.
Gu Jiu only felt that her head was as big as a fight, but before she could think about what to do with this child, she heard a chaotic sound of footsteps outside, and then a boy's particularly vicious voice came: "Who are you, let go of my brother!" ”
It was a little beggar, who looked to be about eleven or twelve years old, with ragged clothes and a dirty face, and a pair of eyes with the ferocity of a beast.
Seeing him rushing towards him, Gu Jiu hurriedly dodged while explaining, "Don't get me wrong, I have no malicious intent!" ”
The boy was probably worried about the little doll in her arms, and his footsteps stopped in front of her, his eyes full of vigilance: "Give me my brother!" ”
Gu Jiu carefully returned the child to him, and reminded him very kindly: "Be careful, he is still too young and can be easily injured." ”
After the little beggar picked up the child, he coaxed him with ease, and he took a few steps back, retreated to a safe range, and then asked vigilantly, "Who are you and what are you doing here?" ”
Gu Jiu looked at him attentively, and saw that he was familiar with feeding the little doll water, and he knew this place very well, knowing that this was his temporary foothold, so he simply said: "It was an old Taoist priest who asked me to come, who are you, do you have anything to do with him?" ”
She only thought that the old Taoist priest's words were strange, but when she saw the baby, she had a vague guess, could it be that the old Taoist priest let him come over, not for fortune telling at all, but to trick her into taking care of the baby?
If she guessed correctly, this little beggar and the old Taoist priest must have known each other.
Sure enough, after hearing her words, the little beggar immediately frowned and said, "Why did Master let you come here?" ”
His voice was extremely soft, but Gu Jiu still heard it.
Gu Jiu was about to say something, but he saw the little baby struggling and crying again, the bowl containing water was pushed to the ground, and the boy hurriedly coaxed him.
"Ming'er, don't cry, don't cry."
However, the little baby didn't know why, this time it was crying badly, the little beggar was as thin as a bamboo pole, although he was powerful, but he was afraid of hurting the child and didn't dare to use his strength, and he couldn't hold him for a while, but fortunately, Gu Jiuyan was fast, and he held his body while hugging the baby: "Be careful." ”
The little baby took advantage of the situation to Gu Jiu's arms, and when she saw the little beggar's angry appearance, she comforted again: "Don't be afraid, I'll coax him for you." Has he ever drunk milk and eaten today? ”
Gu Nianlan was taken care of by Gu Jiu, although she had never used the daily set, she was also exposed to it.
The little baby's mattress was dry, and he was a little panicked when he drank water, and nine times out of ten he was hungry.
And after hearing Gu Jiu's words, the little beggar immediately blushed, and his tone was a little uneasy: "Master hasn't come back yet......
Master said that Ming'er was still young and could only eat the food he had prepared himself.
He carefully observed Gu Jiu's actions, and saw that the other party really didn't look like a bad person, so he also let the little baby in her arms, and asked, "You said that my master asked you to come, why didn't he come back?" ”
"Your Master......
Gu Jiu didn't know how to tell him about the old Taoist priest being arrested, so after thinking about it, he simply said, "I'll take you and your brother to dinner first, and then tell you slowly." ”
Seeing that the little beggar was a little hesitant, she smiled again: "Don't worry, even if I am a liar, what do you think you can be deceived by me?" ”
……
It is difficult to find a temporary nurse in the city, but there are no longer a few people who use milk to make snacks in the restaurant, but after half an hour, the baby drank the baby's, and snuggled in Gu Jiu's arms and slept contentedly.
Such a soft little milk baby made Gu Jiu's movements extremely cautious, for fear of waking him up. The little beggar in front of him was focused on the food in front of him, although he ate quickly, his demeanor was not vulgar, and he looked at it a little bit.
And this little half an hour's kung fu was enough for Gu Jiu to understand their identities.
The little beggar's name is Lin An, he has been wandering around since he was a child, and he met the old Taoist priest for two years, and then he worshiped him as a master with a dead face, and then he was named by the old Taoist priest.
And this little baby actually has nothing to do with him, he was picked up by the old Taoist priest a few months ago, and the three of them depended on each other in the ruined temple.
Hearing him say these words, Gu Jiu thought for a while, and then asked, "If you say so, your master is very good?" But how do I see him telling hexagrams outside, and he doesn't look serious? ”
Hearing this, Lin An didn't eat anymore, and the whole person looked a little angry: "You can't slander people casually, my master is not serious!" Although he will coax people outside, he is also to support us! ”
When he said this, his tone lowered again: "Actually, the master didn't cheat money before, but we dragged him down."
Gu Jiu had a heart to say, because he asked, "How do you say this?" ”
Lin An was so young that he heard her ask, put down his chopsticks, and said very sincerely: "I don't lie to you, Master is very good, when I was about to starve to death, he gave me a piece of steamed bread and let me survive." ”
When he said this, he pointed to the little doll in Gu Jiu's arms again, and said, "And Ming'er, when you pick it up, it's like a kitten." Without him, the two of us would have been a pile of dirt, where would we have survived until now. ”
Lin An's eyes were full of sincerity, and Gu Jiu, who looked at it, was speechless for a while, and only said after a while: "What you said is true?" ”
Hearing her questioning, Lin An nodded heavily: "If there is a lie, I will thunder and thunder!" ”
