Chapter Twenty-Six: The Rumors Are Blowing
The aroma of grilled fish by the bonfire slowly wafted away, and Li Xiaoran stared at the grilled fish with straight eyes, making it look like no one was allowed to rob her.
"It should be fine, Miss is ready to eat!" Wang Qingming looked at the grilled fish on the fire and felt that it was almost over, so he took a grilled fish from the side of the fire and handed it to Li Xiaoran.
"If it's served with a little secret pepper, it's really delicious!" Wang Qingming added.
After a while, everyone ate the grilled fish, and the smell of the grilled fish filled the entire camp and wafted into a haystack next to the camp.
"Brother, I want to eat grilled fish, or let's do it now!"
With a "snap", a palm slapped the head of the person who wanted to eat grilled fish, but the man was stunned, so he immediately covered his head and said.
"Brother, why are you beating me, I just want to eat grilled fish!"
"You're in a bad brain, what are we here for, don't you know? Eat fart grilled fish now! After tying up a few of them, there will be countless glory and wealth! Do you understand children! ”
"Brother, I understand, then I'll bear with it first, a few of you, hurry up and find me something to eat, if you don't find it, you will feel good!"
Since "Brother" didn't allow him to grab Li Xiaoran's grilled fish now, he pointed to the group behind him and asked them to find food to fill their empty stomachs.
The person who was called my brother thought in his heart: How can I have a younger brother like you, my mother only knows how to eat and drink all day long, if it weren't for the early death of my parents, I wouldn't care about you!
"It's not too early, you should rest as soon as possible, and you have to get up early tomorrow to hurry!" After Shen Luo finished eating the grilled fish, he wiped the stains from his mouth with his hands and went back to his marching tent to rest.
"Did you go to bed so early, why don't you come and have a chat with us and have a dozen fun?" Xuanyuan Qinghe was not sleepy at this time, and when he saw that Shen Luo was about to leave, he wanted to come and play with him, so he said so.
Shen Luo didn't reply, but just raised his hand and shook it twice, indicating that he didn't want to play and wanted to rest.
After chatting for a while, everyone was also sleepy, and they all went back to their tents to rest, and the first thing that couldn't resist was Xuanyuan Qinghe, chatting and chatting, people actually fell asleep, just like they had narcolepsy.
Li Xiaoran sat in the tent, opened the corner of the tent, and could see the starry sky, lying in the tent, but couldn't sleep, and kept imagining something in his mind.
The night was too quiet, and the moonlight shone like a mist woven from a hazy silver veil, and on the leaves, on the faces of men, a solemn and holy light flashed. The cicadas also seem to be asleep.
Silver-white moonlight sprinkled on the ground, and crickets chirped everywhere. The scent of the night fills the air, weaving a soft net that envelops all the scenery. All the eyes come into contact with is the thing covered with this soft net, no grass or tree, not as realistic as in the daytime, they all have a vague, ethereal color, each of which hides its subtleties, keeps its secrets, and makes people feel like a dream.
"Brother, can we act? It's time for them to fall asleep, right? When he said this, he was holding a sweet potato in his hand and gnawing on it, probably telling his subordinates to look for it, but he only found a sweet potato.
"Erjun, you can act now, tie it up tonight, and ask them tomorrow morning."
It was Niu Erjun's brother Niu Dajun who spoke, and after Dajun finished speaking, he found that although Erjun was listening, he was still gnawing on sweet potatoes, so he was very annoyed and said, and at the same time took away the sweet potatoes in his hands and threw them somewhere.
"I know how to eat all day long, hurry up and act for me, the people behind follow the second master, remember not to wake them up, if they wake up, they will withdraw immediately."
The night was dark, and a group of black-clothed people led by Er Jun slowly sneaked into the camp, and the wind came with the sound of leaves and branches.
They stopped, covered their faces with masks, and then took out something like a fire fold, and when it was lit, a puff of white smoke came out, and the maid, who had been somewhat conscious, fainted when she smelled the white smoke.
"The things given by the eldest brother are easy to use, the brothers don't have to tiptoe, just drag them here and tie them to the tree with ropes, I'll see if there is anything to eat, you go and inform the eldest brother."
Niu Erjun immediately went to look for something to eat, and when he walked to the campfire, there was still an unfinished grilled fish left on the bonfire, and Erjun took it down without hesitation after seeing it, and ate the grilled fish.
Then he said triumphantly: "Big brother, don't I still eat a grilled fish?!" Hahaha! ”
In the early morning of the second day, the sun had just risen in the east, and when the first ray of sunlight hit Li Xiaoran's face, Li Xiaoran opened his eyes, and wanted to move his muscles and bones, but found that he couldn't move.
I looked left, I looked right, and then I looked at myself, and I was tied to a tree with rope wrapped around my body.
"It's like déjà vu, it's like being kidnapped by kidnappers in a costume drama."
"Which one kills a thousand knives! Tie up Lao Tzu, believe it or not, Lao Tzu slaughtered you! Xuanyuan Qinghe shouted extremely loudly, but he woke up the people who had woken them up yesterday!
"If you shout again, I'll tear your mouth off, what are you doing early in the morning? Why don't you lean against the tree and get some rest! ”
Erjun came out, cursed at them, and rubbed his belly with his hand, and his stomach gurgled a few times, it seemed that this stomach was about to eat again.
"Are we kidnapped? Which of you has ever encountered this situation? Li Xiaoran said uneasily, looking at their posture, they are not easy to mess with.
"It's my first time and the first time in my life, but I hope it's the last time because I don't want to experience it again!" Shen Luo's brows furrowed deeply, his face was full of anger, and he said sadly.
"Isn't this just a experience, if you're tired, we'll be fine, and if you lose, it's a big deal or make money. Or just rob the color! ”
Xuanyuan Qinghe also encountered this situation for the first time, but he had no other way, so it was better to face all this happily.
"Erjun! What about people? Where did you run again! After Niu Dajun woke up, he asked the little attendant beside him.
"The second child seems to be looking for something to eat, and I guess I won't see him this morning."
Niu Dajun held his head with one hand and the door frame with the other, so that he would not be thundered by Erjun's behavior.
"What's the matter, you tied us up, why don't you let them go quickly!" After Xuanyuan Qinghe saw that someone came out again, he began to scold.
Niu Dajun didn't say anything, but slowly approached them, and muttered: "Last night, the night was too dark, I didn't see what you looked like, it turned out that there was such a beautiful young lady in it!" ”
The beautiful young lady she said didn't have to think about it to be Li Xiaoran, if not, then only Ling'er would be left.
"Purpose, the people behind the scenes." Shen Luo still had a serious look on his face, and Shen Luo directly asked Niu Dajun why he wanted to kidnap our group of people.
"I just want to grab a little money, I don't mean anything else, we won't be tempted by the little girl, you put a hundred hearts, we are just honest people."
Shen Luo didn't believe what Niu Dajun said at all, and continued to ask in a tough tone: "The real purpose, and the people behind you." ”
"Don't you understand? We are bandits, bandits with quality, we represent ourselves, and there is no one behind us, where is the person from, if there is anyone, will I still come out to rob the money? ”
Niu Dajun didn't want to explain anything, the key was that the person in front of him was really annoying to talk about.
"Let me introduce myself, my name is Niu Dajun, and I also have a younger brother named Niu Erjun, we have a village on the dry mountain, and the world is called Renyi Village!"
"I don't want to tell you so much, hand over all the things before, I turned over your salutes, just some clothes and fruits, but I see that your dress is by no means something ordinary people have, you must have something valuable, it should be hidden on your body!"
Without saying a word, Niu Dajun began to move his hands, searching everywhere on the people who were tied, and when it was Li Xiaoran's turn, Li Xiaoran was very worried in his heart, and his mind was blank.
"Pay attention to quality, didn't you say that you are a bandit with quality? Come and search for me, sloppy, hurry up! Xuanyuan Qinghe looked at the kidnapper in front of him, and was about to search Li Xiaoran, and said directly and loudly to attract the kidnapper's attention.
"My quality and you tell me, I'll come and search you now, you won't let me find anything good, otherwise, I'll be ruined!"
Niu Dajun was a little annoyed in his heart, you can scold me, but you can't doubt my professionalism in this profession, although we are bandits, but we are also a quality bandit, we have always been a quality three-in-a-row.
"I've never heard the name of your cottage, you can't just create it, right?" Li Xiaoran: I think this person is very interesting, but it looks like a novice.
"What's in your arms, take it out!" Niu Dajun snatched a piece of paper from Xuanyuan Qinghe's arms, but he didn't understand what it meant, so he said to the person next to him.
"Do you know how to read, you read this to me!"
The person next to him said that he would, so he took a cursory look at the contents of the paper, and began to say affectionately:
"Fengtian carries the emperor, Zhao Ri! Specially appointed Xuanyuan Qinghe as the magistrate of Qinzhou, is the seventh official of the imperial court, after half a year, you can return to Bianjing City, Qindu!
"Do you mean that they are all officials?" Niu Dajun was already trembling when he said this, but he didn't expect the robbery to hit the court officials, how can this be good?
"You know who we are, then don't let us go quickly, or else!" Xuanyuan Qinghe showed a warning in his eyes, and this warning was like an invincible king.
After Niu Dajun heard that they were all officials, his feet couldn't help but tremble, it turned out that he had touched hard stubble, but if he let them go back, how could he not guarantee that they would not report to the official, so he was ready to do nothing.
