Chapter 25: Suspicious
At the moment when the lantern shone on Tao Shiyi's body, he made a decision!
Tao Shiyi glanced at the person who came in out of the corner of his eye, it was Ah Si, the fastest knife in Guan Mingjue's hand.
"Ah Si, hurry, that child is on the beam, grab her!" Tao Shiyi said hoarsely.
Ah Si was slightly stunned, but he didn't hesitate, and shouted outside the door: "Ah Dan, Bazi, come in and see him!" ”
Before the words fell, Ah Si plucked onions on dry land and ran onto the beams of the house.
......
The beam is empty!
When Ah Si realized that he had been deceived and immediately jumped off the beam, he heard the exclamations of Ah Dan and Ba Zi: "Fourth brother, the surname Tao wants to escape." ”
Where the light of the lantern shines, the rope has been cut.
Ah Si is an expert, and when he picked up the broken rope, he knew that it was cut with a knife, not sharpened by himself.
"There are fellow parties, let people chase after them!" This time, Ah Si was not fooled again, he looked at Tao Shiyi with interest, and suddenly reached out to Tao Shiyi's waist.
The wound that was coagulated by blood was torn apart again, and Tao Shiyi let out a scream like a pig.
Shen Tong, who was crawling in the grass, grinned exaggeratedly, this cry was too scary, how did that Ah Si, who looked like a spear, torture him?
Well deserved! Who told you not to believe me, if you believed me, at least you could die a more comfortable death.
If it were an ordinary person, after listening to the deal proposed by Shen Tong, he might believe it.
But Tao Shiyi is not an ordinary person, he is suspicious and vicious, just for a suspicion that has not been confirmed, he killed all eight nurses.
Regardless of whether Shen Tong who came to Tao Shiyi was true or not, she was a trap set by Guan Mingjue for him!
Tao Shiyi had a line in his mind.
Rong Niang let go of Shen Tong, Shen Tong was sent back by the Guan family, Shen Tong stabbed him, Shen Tong told Wei Touer about the third child, and now Shen Tong appeared in front of him again and hinted at letting him run away, and find a little girl to pretend to be Shen Tong to meet someone from the capital!
This is really ridiculous, Guan Mingjue really thought he was a fool and used the little girl to make him fall into the trap again and again.
The first trap is in front of Wei Tou'er, that time he has already fallen, not only does he not count the conditions he negotiated with Wei Tou'er before, but also his wife and children will be harmed;
Guan Mingjue set the second trap in front of the people from the capital, as long as he escaped from here and appeared at the Qiaohe Inn with the fake Shen Tong, then it would be confirmed that he was an accomplice of the Shen family and played with the people in the capital.
So Tao Shiyi pretended to be clever and came to a thief shouting to catch the thief, and the result was as good as his screams.
"Cousin, you really can't blame me for this." Shen Tong got a conclusion from Tao Shiyi, that is, too many suspicious people will eventually be killed by their own suspicions.
Someone shouted and ran over, Shen Tong shrank her body, and she didn't come out of the grass until she couldn't hear those messy footsteps, those people were all chasing Tao Shiyi's comrades, but they just wanted to make a show, and even the grass that was more than half a person tall didn't look carefully.
The Guan family's anger has been exhausted, and among the people below, I am afraid that only Ah Si can do things, no wonder in the Old Dragon King Temple, Ah Si's errand was smashed, and Guan Mingjue did not punish him.
Shen Tong shook the grass clippings on his body, and took advantage of the night to return to the river beach.
"Miss, you're back!"
Fang Fei jumped out from behind the stone, which startled Shen Tong.
"You didn't sleep?" Shen Tong asked.
"Slave maid...... The slave was scared and didn't dare to sleep...... "Fang Fei blushed, her two little hands twisted around, she was really embarrassed, but she didn't lie, she was really scared, she was sleeping in the wilderness for the first time, this is not far from the forest, Tao Shun'er's body is in the small stone house, what if he becomes a ghost?
"That's right, I'll go to the river and catch a few fish for supper."
Shen Tong took off his clothes and went into the water as he spoke, Fang Fei was dumbfounded, and wanted to eat raw fish again......
After a while, Shen Tong came out of the river, she threw the fish in her hand towards Fang Fei, Fang Fei saw that these were all big fish one foot long, and she didn't know how the young lady caught them.
Fang Fei was not hungry, but Shen Tong was tired and hungry, she ate more than half of the two fish, and Fang Fei only ate one fish tail.
After eating and drinking, Shen Tong let out a long sigh of relief, she lay comfortably on a flat big stone, and asked Fang Fei: "Do you know where Qiaohe Inn is?" ”
"The slave knows that the Qiaohe Inn is the largest inn in the town, just below the town." Fang Fei leaned on the big stone where Shen Tong was lying, she was not scared at all now, Miss was back, even if Tao Shun'er's ghost really came, Miss could run away.
"Then you tell me, how to get from here to Qiaohe Inn, by the way, Rong Niang went to pick me up that day, do you know where she picked me up?"
"Hey, isn't my aunt the young lady who went to my cousin's house to pick it up?" Fang Fei asked with her eyes closed.
"yes, I just don't remember where my home is, alas, I've been sick for days and I've forgotten it." Shen Tong was a little sad, she didn't know if many people had such a thing as rebirth, but like her, she couldn't find a home after being reborn, so she was the only one who thought about it.
"My aunt didn't say it, but ...... That day, my aunt went out of the house early in the morning, and I took Miss Cousin with me in the evening, no, it was Miss who came back, and I thought that Miss Miss's home would not be too far away, and it would be a day's journey back and forth. Fang Fei said.
It was not a day's journey, and Rong Niang went to the Wild Boar Ridge first that day, picked up the little girl, and then went to pick her up.
"Fang Fei, do you know where the Wild Boar Ridge is?" Shen Tong asked again.
"The slave has heard of the Boar Ridge, but she has never been there, and she doesn't know where it is." The last sentence was already vague, and the little girl was about to fall asleep.
When Shen Tong woke up, it was bright, she went to the river to wash her face and was about to leave, Fang Fei grabbed her: "Miss, the slave and maid will go with you, and the slave and maid promise not to drag you down." ”
Shen Tong looked at her and smiled: "You're scared here alone, right?" ”
The little girl was a little embarrassed, but she still nodded: "The slave also wants to help the young lady do something." ”
"Okay, then let's go to the Qiao River Inn now." Shen Tong said with a smile.
"Okay, the slave knows the way." Fang Fei was happy and laughed with two small dimples.
Qiaohe Inn is easy to find, when Shen Tong and Fang Fei arrived, the breakfast stall on the west side of the inn had not yet been closed.
Shen Tong took a deep breath, and the air was filled with the aroma of scallion pancakes.
Grunt, hungry again.
She turned her head to look at Fang Fei, the little girl was looking at the early stall and swallowing her saliva, thinking about it, the little girl is not used to eating raw fish, I'm afraid she will be very greedy at this time.
Shen Tong was about to persuade Fang Fei to go back and draw a scallion pancake for her to satisfy her hunger, when suddenly, she felt that someone was watching her.
This intuition is specially trained and cannot be mistaken, someone must be watching her.
Shen Tong turned around, and she saw that not far away, there were two people standing, one was an attendant dressed in caftan brown, and the other was a young man dressed as a scholar.
The temples of the entourage bulged high, and at first glance, it was a practitioner. Although that son was dressed in cloth, the grace that emanated from his bones was not like what he could have in this town.
Shen Tong hurriedly lowered his head and dragged Fang Fei's arm forward, Fang Fei didn't know what to do, twisted her head and looked at the stall selling scallion pancakes.
It smells so good.
"Are you hungry?" A voice sounded behind them, and Shen Tong didn't have to look back to know that it was the young man who spoke. The fourteen or fifteen-year-old has an ugly juvenile voice, and he still speaks official dialect.
"Yes, we're hungry, but we don't have any money." Shen Tong said sweetly.
