Chapter 155: The Woman of the Mountain (5)
Chen Xi couldn't believe that all of this was true!
She cautiously walked out of the room and found that there was no one around.
Chen Xi didn't know who helped her unlock it, but she knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and if she missed it this time, no one knew when the next opportunity would be.
After taking a few steps forward, Chen Xi remembered something, turned around and relocked the door where she came out.
After locking the door, Chen Xi went straight to the kitchen.
Because of the wine banquet, there are still a lot of leftover ingredients and dishes in the kitchen, although it looks very simple and rough, but it is a lifesaver for Chen Xi, who has not eaten all day.
She casually stuffed something into her mouth as she put her portable food into a basket along with a hatchet knife leaning against the corner.
After that, Chen Xi picked up the basket and sneaked out of Li Wangsheng's house.
Most of the people in the village went to put out the fire, and Chen Xi could even see the dazzling light of the fire in the distance.
The fire did not tend to be extinguished, but became stronger and stronger by the wind.
Chen Xi sneered, thinking that this might be retribution.
After running past several families along the corner, Chen Xi ran to the back mountain.
She was actually awake when she came, but she was weak.
She had observed that this village was deep in the mountains, and there was only one road leading to the outside, and if she ran out along the main road, she would definitely be caught back soon, and it was best to run into the mountains!
"Lan Lan, what are you looking at?"
Hearing her second brother's voice, Li Xiulan immediately retracted her gaze.
She seemed to have seen someone running over just now, but it was too dark to see who it was, but the clothes looked a little familiar.
"Didn't see anything."
"Then let's go, it's our turn to put out the fire, or Mom is right, this may be someone deliberately set the fire, we have to go back and look at the house."
Li Xiulan nodded, still thinking about the figure she had just seen, the clothes didn't seem to be the clothes worn by the people in the village, it seemed to be-
Li Xiulan paused, it seemed to be the clothes worn by her daughter-in-law who had just been bought home by Uncle Sitang today!
"Lan Lan, what are you doing there?"
"I justβ"
Li Xiulan opened her mouth, not knowing what she thought, and swallowed back what she wanted to say.
"It's nothing, I just burned down the ancestral hall to rebuild, and then every family will have to pay again."
Second Brother Li turned around and touched his little sister's head, and said with a smile: "This kind of thing is something that adults worry about, we don't have to worry about it, let's go back quickly." β
"Hmm."
Li Xiulan walked a few steps quickly, and finally looked back at her, but it was pitch black behind her, and she couldn't see anything, as if the figure just now was her illusion......
On the other side, under the cover of the night, Chen Xi was not discovered all the way, and seeing that he was about to enter the mountain, a figure suddenly rushed out from the other side, so frightened that Chen Xi almost screamed.
The man also seemed to be startled by Chen Xi, and stopped suddenly.
Chen Xi's heart was about to jump out of her throat, she almost thought that she had been discovered, and when she looked closely, it was actually the girl who was sold in with her!
The other party was also taken aback when he saw Chen Xi, the two glanced at each other, and then tacitly buried their heads in the mountains.

Sun Jiayi sat silently on the bed and massaged her left foot, and the quilt on the bed exuded a damp musty smell.
She knew there was no one at home now, but what could she do?
The door was locked from the outside, and she couldn't get out.
Sun Jiayi lowered her head and pressed the acupuncture points on her feet seriously, her grandfather was an old Chinese medicine doctor in the village, she used to learn some fur knowledge from him, if it weren't for this, her leg would have been wasted a long time ago.
After the massage was not easy, Sun Jiayi heard the sound of the door lock, and she immediately covered the quilt on her body and pretended to be sleeping.
Coming back so early?
Sun Jiayi's body didn't move, but his ears were pricked up, listening carefully to the sound outside, and carefully identifying it.
The door lock was opened, the lock was taken down, and the door was pushed open......
Why is no one coming in?
Sun Jiayi waited for a while, but there was still no movement, she got up and looked out-
The door was halfway open, but it was empty.
What's going on?
Sun Jiayi was shocked in her heart, she hesitated for a moment, and finally got up and walked to the door.
There was no one outside the door, and the lock that had locked her for years was opened and placed on the ground.
It's-
Sun Jiayi's heart beat violently, this is an opportunity!
Sun Jiayi didn't hesitate, she locked the door again, took two steps out, and then suddenly remembered something, turned back to the kitchen, and when she came out again, she carried a basket on her back.
Before leaving, she thought about it and went to the firewood room to take another look.
Originally, he didn't see anyone in the small corner of the sleeping person, and he didn't see a second person in the rest of the room, Sun Jiayi didn't know whether he was relieved or something else, it was indescribable.
The kid ......
Sun Jiayi closed her eyes, and finally said sorry in her heart, and then turned around without hesitation and walked in the direction of the back mountain.
She couldn't run, she could only walk briskly, and when she walked, it was obvious that her left foot was a little lame, but compared to her usual difficult appearance, it was a world of difference!
[Her foot is really not that serious! Xingyun: How did you see it before? γ
Xingyun walked out from behind the wall, she watched Sun Jiayi's back gradually disappear into the night, and did not answer Qizai's question, but walked to Sun Jiayi's house and reopened the lock.
Seeing his host skillfully use a thin wire to open the lock a few times, Qizai is still very proud.
Its host is really good!
Xing Yun went into the house and took two pieces of Sun Jiayi's clothes that she had changed out of before, and then locked the door again.
Seeing that Xingyun first sprinkled something in the direction that Sun Jiayi left, and then dragged her clothes on the ground and walked in the other direction, Qizai asked puzzledly: [What is this for? γ
[There are dogs in the village.] γ
[So? γ
[Think for yourself.] γ

Li Lao Er saw that the fire was almost under control, the eldest brother and father were not around, and the stupid brother didn't know where to go, so he sneaked back while others weren't paying attention.
On the way, he also saw a few other people coming home, and he didn't want to say hello to them, so he trotted all the way home.
As soon as he got home and saw the iron general, he remembered that he didn't have a key in his hand.
But this doesn't bother him, the village basically doesn't lock the door, the lock door is basically closed by the daughter-in-law, and the lock is not a good lock, and it can be opened easily.
After fiddling with something a few times, the lock was opened.
Thinking of the bright girl in the house, Li Laoer's body reacted immediately.
After laughing obscenely a few times, Li Lao Er pushed open the door and walked in.
After a while, Li Lao Er stumbled out of the door, and shouted loudly at the top of his voice as he ran towards the ancestral hall:
"Someone! The daughter-in-law ran awayβ"
