Chapter 252: Robbers

I nodded after listening to the woman, then looked at the woman and asked, "I just heard you say that those people in your family are robbers in the neighborhood, so your house shouldn't be too far from here, right?" ”

After hearing this, the woman nodded and said, "Yes, it's not far, and you can reach our village in half a day." ”

I thought for a moment and said, "Well, you can sleep here for the night, and I'll send you back to your village early tomorrow morning, so you don't have to worry about people finding you." ”

When the woman heard this, she hurriedly said: "Thank you, childe, the little girl really doesn't know how to repay it." ”

I smiled and said, "What to repay or not to repay, it's all a matter of effort, don't think about it, it's better to rest early." ”

With that, I turned my gaze to the fire, and the woman looked at me, and then found a place not far away to lie down. Although the woman lay down, she did not fall asleep directly, and it seemed that she was still a little scared. I don't know how long it took for the woman to fall asleep in a daze.

And I looked at the woman from the side, and I suddenly thought of Qing Yao. I remember that a year and a half ago, although Qing Yao's life was not threatened, she was finally knocked out by a spell from the head of the Dao Gate, and I don't know what happened to Qing Yao now. I still remember what the head said at the time that Qing Yao would change back to her original form soon, and now Qing Yao may have changed back to her original form, but with the master by his side, I think the master should have a way to save Qing Yao.

At this time, in addition to worrying about Qing Yao, I missed her more. I think that not long after we got married in that Dao Gate in a hurry, Qing Yao was poisoned. I think when I find Qingyao, I must make up for her about our marriage.

I came back to my senses, looked at the woman again, and then found a place to lie down and rest.

The next morning, I called out to the woman. Then I let the woman ride the horse, and I walked on the ground. Guided by the woman, we walked towards the village where her home was located.

Near noon, the woman and I rushed to a village. This village is relatively small, there are not so many families, I roughly calculated, at most there are more than a dozen families.

The houses in the village are located on the ground irregularly.

I turned to look at the woman and asked, "This is your village?" ”

After hearing this, the woman nodded and said, "Yes, Childe, this is it." ”

After hearing this, I smiled and said, "In this case, I will send you here, you can go back by yourself, let's leave it at that." ”

"Gollum......" Shortly after my words fell, a sound came from my stomach.

I scratched my head in embarrassment, I hadn't eaten a bite of food since last night, and it would be strange if my stomach didn't grow.

After hearing this, the woman covered her mouth and smiled: "Childe is hungry, in this case, it is not too late for Childe to follow me into the house to have a meal and then leave, it can be regarded as a little woman thanking Childe for saving his life." ”

Originally, I wanted to refuse, but my stomach was really a little angry, and then I smiled a little embarrassed: "That...... Then I might as well be respectful. ”

The woman smiled and didn't speak, and I led the horse and continued towards the village.

The woman and I had not gone far into the village when the woman shouted to stop in front of a small courtyard. I carefully helped the woman off the horse, and then followed her towards the courtyard.

"Daddy, Niang Shan'er is back." As soon as the woman entered the courtyard, she shouted into the house.

Soon after, a middle-aged couple ran out of the house, and as soon as the two came out, they rushed to the woman's side, and then shouted at the woman and asked for warmth.

And I stood aside and watched this scene, which seemed to me quite warm.

It's just that my stomach doesn't think so, and my stomach growls again on this occasion.

"Gollum ......"

This voice was heard by the three people who were hugging each other, and the woman covered her mouth and smiled: "Daddy, let me introduce you to you, this son is the one who saved me last night, if it weren't for this son, I think I would have been arrested again." This son's name is ......"

When the woman said this, she turned to me and asked, "By the way, Childe, the little girl still doesn't know Childe's surname." ”

I smiled and said, "Under Wang Chuyan." ”

After hearing this, the woman smiled: "It was this prince who saved me, and the prince has not eaten yet, so I invited him to my home." ”

After the middle-aged couple heard this, the man walked up to me and looked at me and said, "Thank you for saving the little girl, otherwise we really don't know what to do." ”

I smiled and said, "It's all a matter of effort, so you don't have to take it to heart." ”

After that, we had another polite conversation, and the man asked his wife to prepare a meal for us. The man then invited me into the house, and we chatted in the room.

During this time, I also waited for the family's surname Su, and the woman's name was Susan.

And I also learned from the mouth of this man what happened yesterday.

Yesterday at dawn, a group of robbers came to the village, and those robbers also fell on the grass on the nearby hills. They would come to the village once in a while, and they didn't have a precise time, sometimes in the evening, sometimes in the morning.

Every time the robbers came, the man would let Susan hide. Because there were good young and beautiful women in the village, and they were all robbed by the robbers. Susan was not snatched by the robbers because the man hid it well, but he didn't expect that the robbers came too fast yesterday, and the man didn't expect it at all, so Susan was snatched away by the robbers.

Hearing this, I shook my head helplessly, thinking about whether to teach those robbers some lessons.

The man looked at me in contemplation and said, "Although the little girl has escaped now, those robbers will definitely not give up, and I think they will probably come to the village again soon." ”

After hearing this, I glanced at the man and said, "Then according to what you think, if there is a place for me to serve, I will naturally not let it go." ”

When the man heard me say this, he hurriedly said: "I don't want anything else, you can't imagine the cruelty of those robbers." So I beg you, take Susan out of this place, and get her out of this fire pit. ”

I smiled and said, "Even if I take Susan away, not a single person in the whole village will not be able to leave, and the villagers will not have an accident at that time." ”

The man smiled bitterly: "Then there is no other way." ”

I wondered, "Then you didn't want to leave this place?" ”

"Why, we don't want to, but we walk on the front foot, and the robbers get the news on the back foot. They will soon catch up with us, waiting for them to catch up with those who are running. The only thing that awaits those people is death, so we can only stay here forever. ”

I frowned when I heard this, I really didn't expect this little robber to be so careless about human life, and they didn't take life as their life at all. Subsequently, I also decided to teach those people some lessons.

Since this kind of thing has happened to me, I naturally will not sit idly by.

At this time, the man's wife brought the meal to the table. I was polite to the host, and then I opened my mouth. But while I was eating, I found that Susan's family was watching me eat, and they didn't take a bite of what they were eating.

I was a little embarrassed to put down the dishes and chopsticks and asked, "Why don't you eat them?" ”

The man looked at me and said, "We're not in a hurry, we'll eat when you're done." ”

I don't understand what kind of rule this is, wait for others to finish eating, and I'm eating. Then, at my strong request, the three of them followed me to move the dishes and chopsticks.

While we were eating, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves outside the courtyard, and there were quite a few of them.

"No...... Oh no, it must be the robbers who came. The man said nervously.

"Dad, mother, what should we do, they must have arrested me back." Susan looked at the man and said.

The man glanced at me, who was still eating, and then gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry, I will not let them take you away again." ”

When the sound of the horse's hooves sounded, I quickened the pace of my meal. It's not that I don't want to worry about it, but I think I can take one more bite before I do it, otherwise it will take some strength to fill my stomach like this.

After a muffled sound of "bang ......", the courtyard gate was kicked open by people outside the courtyard.

A strong man with a big waist walked in, he looked at the male owner and said slowly: "Old man Su, your girl is really capable, she actually ran back by herself." ”

"It's him, the king is him, he stopped us back last night, and he beat the brothers." Another voice suddenly rang out.

It was none other than the bearded man from last night.

"Huh? You're the one who hit my brother? The strong man asked, leaning closer to me.

I didn't pay attention to the man, and kept eating.

"If I ask you, you will call me back." The strong man looked at me and roared.

I swallowed the food in my mouth, turned my head to look at the strong man and said, "Reply to you?" What are you, I'll reply to you. Also, I'll give you a chance, as long as you promise not to do bad things in the future, I can let you go. ”

"You're giving me a chance? You're the first person to talk to me like that, and it looks like you really don't want to live. The strong man looked at me and roared.

I shook my head helplessly and said, "Alas, why every time I give advice to others, others just don't listen." I really can't figure it out, it seems that you have to learn a little lesson today to be satisfied. ”

"You're so unashamed. Little ones, grab the boy for me and hang it in the village to dry, I want to see how many lives his sharp-toothed thing has. The strong man shouted at me.
