Chapter Ninety-Six: Little Things
"You asked me to open it, I didn't steal it." Fang Fei chattered and couldn't wait to open the food box.
"Ah, osmanthus cake, and osmanthus glutinous rice lotus root, you can also eat lotus root in winter in the north, this is osmanthus candy, a lot." Fang Fei's saliva is about to flow out, she likes sweets the most.
Xiao Ren sniffed and pinned his face to the side, just facing the few homeless people who were cowering in the corner, probably seeing that he and Fang Fei were both children, and those homeless people all craned their necks to look at the food box in front of them.
Xiao Ren glared at them fiercely, and several homeless people were startled, but they didn't expect this half-grown child to stare at people with such powerful eyes.
Xiao Ren said coldly: "Look at your stupid appearance, take it away, don't let me see it." ”
"Huh? Are you talking to me? Let me take it? Are you sure? Do you really not eat it? It's you who don't eat it, it's not me who steals it. ”
Fang Fei dragged the food box away like a baby.
Xiao Ren didn't look at her, and continued to stare at the few homeless people, so frightened that those people didn't even dare to breathe, who knows if these dozen people are bandits, and they are still carrying knives.
After a while, Fang Fei came back again, holding a steamed bun with beef in her hand.
"Miss asked me to bring it to you, the porridge is finished, the hot water is boiled, and we bring the tea." After Fang Fei finished speaking, she ran back to Shen Tong, she didn't want to pay attention to this person.
Xiao Ren picked up the steamed bun and took a bite, the stinky girl was really sick, she even had to take tea with her when she went out, her mother-in-law and mother's were annoying.
......
After a tired day, Shen Tong and Fang Fei were young and frail, full of food and drink, the two watched everyone talk and laugh, and after a while, they fell asleep together.
I don't know how long she slept, Shen Tong felt that someone was stabbing her, she opened her eyes suddenly, the fire in the fire was about to be extinguished, everyone else was sleeping, only Xiao Ren was standing in front of her.
Shen Tong looked at him suspiciously, unbelievable.
Xiao Ren pointed to the outside of the temple and motioned for Shen Tong to follow him out.
The two tiptoed out, and Xu An and Zhao Xiu were on duty at night.
"Seven Young ......"
Before Zhao Xiu's words were finished, Xiao Ren waved his hand at him and led Shen Tong to the place where the horse was tethered.
"Where?" Shen Tong asked.
"I said I'm going to catch the Dragon Tiger Guard, have you forgotten?" Xiao Ren said.
Shen Tong remembered that in the morning, Xiao Ren once said that there were officials who went to Beijing to send congratulatory gifts to live in the official post, and there were dragon and tiger guards to escort them.
"It's a long way from the official post here, and besides, they were still in the official post in the morning, and now they're gone." Shen Tong said.
"Do you like to go?" Boss Xiao Ren was unhappy and turned over on the horse, as if Shen Tong owed him money.
Shen Tong smiled, got on his horse, and caught up with Xiao Ren.
"Hey, kid, you're not in a good temper." Shen Tong said with a smile.
"Take care of you", Xiao Ren said coldly, and then as if he remembered something, he turned his head again and said hatefully, "Don't call me a child, you are a child!" ”
"All right, kid." Shen Tong couldn't hold back anymore and laughed.
It's really good to live again, if it wasn't for it, she wouldn't have thought that she would have been so awkward when Xiao Ren was a child.
The incomparable Xiao Renlai in her previous life appeared in her mind again, and the more she thought about it, the more funny she felt, laughing so much that she almost fell off the horse.
"What are you laughing at? What's so funny, laughing silly. Xiao Ren was dissatisfied.
Shen Tong finally stopped laughing, closed his mouth, didn't look at Xiao Ren next to him, and galloped towards the direction where the official post was.
When I was about to arrive at the official post, there was a night patrol to pass by, and it was already the third watch.
"You wait here, I'll go get someone." Xiao Ren dismounted and threw the reins to Shen Tong.
"I'd better go." Shen Tong felt that it was still necessary to be polite.
"I've been to this inn and I'm familiar with the terrain inside, so you can only add to the chaos when you go." Xiao Ren left after speaking, without looking back.
Shen Tong thought about it, Xiao Ren was because she made fun of him, so he held his breath.
Isn't it just to take the risk of arresting people? Who wants to fight with you?
There was a wind in the night, it was cold and biting, Shen Tong was so cold that he was jumping, and after about a stick of incense, Xiao Ren walked over from a distance, carrying a big bag behind him.
"You still have pockets?" Shen Tong was curious.
"Grab it in the kitchen." Xiao Ren said as he put his pocket across the horse's back, and the person in the pocket was motionless, obviously fainting.
The two rode out of more than two miles and walked into the barren depression by the roadside.
Xiao Ren pulled the man out of his pocket, took off the water bag from the horse, and splashed a bag of cold water on the man, and the man woke up slowly.
Under the moonlight, Shen Tong looked carefully, this person was twenty-seven or eighteen years old, wearing a middle coat, and he was actually dragged out of the bed.
The man was obviously taken aback, looked around, and glared at Xiao Ren and Shen Tong in front of him: "Two rabbit cubs, who got Lao Tzu here?" ”
Xiao Ren pointed to his nose: "You and me." ”
The man was furious and wanted to punch him, only to find that his hands and feet were tied, so he had to scold: "Little animal, let Lao Tzu go, do you know who Lao Tzu is?" Hurry up and let it go, I don't want to live anymore, do you? ”
"Honestly, I won't kill you, go back to the south and tell Zou Xuehuai that you fell into my hands, and promise that he won't scold you." Xiao Ren said coldly.
The man was stunned and looked Xiao Ren up and down: "Who are you?" ”
"Go back and ask Zou Xuehuai and let him tell you." Xiao Ren said.
Zou Xuehuai is the commander of the Dragon and Tiger Guard, of course this person knows, look at Xiao Ren, and look at Shen Tong, and he will no longer shout for a while.
"You're looking for me?" The man asked.
Xiao Ren looked at Shen Tong and said, "Just ask whatever you want." ”
"Hmm", Shen Tong walked up to the man and asked, "Is there something wrong with the Guan family in Shangqiao Town?" ”
The man was stunned, looked at the little girl in front of him in disbelief, and only nodded after a long time: "The Guan family's mansion ran out of water, burned for a day and a night, and none of the people in the Guan family's house ran out, and now the Guan family in Shangqiao Town only has a few side branches." ”
"Walking on the water again?" Shen Tong said with a smile.
"On the surface, it is a water walk, but in fact it is definitely not, the Guan family has a big business, if it is really just a water walk, it will not be that no one has run out, and the local county government has not found out anything." The man said.
"Xia Qiao Town has lost a lot of children, have you found it?" Shen Tong asked again.
"Lower Qiao Town? You're talking about Liujiawan, it's true that a lot of children have been lost, and it is said that only one was found, and this matter is not allowed to be checked, and we don't know. The man said.
Shen Tong didn't ask any more, she said to Xiao Ren, "Send him back." ”
Xiao Ren frowned: "I caught him, you only ask about these two little things?" ”
The Guan family is all dead, is this a trivial matter?
