Chapter 557: Escape
"Tom!" The tall shopkeeper Wu had a frightened expression on his face, and he fell to the ground, his abdomen was cut open by a sharp knife.
Yan Hanqiu couldn't cry, and cried to Ouyang Shaoming: "Mr. Ouyang, you are finally here, Hanqiu is so scared." ”
"Don't be afraid!" Ouyang Shaoming looked coldly at the convulsive and dead shopkeeper Wu on the ground, loosened Yan Hanqiu's tie, took off his clothes, and put them on Yan Hanqiu's body.
Just now he inquired in the town about who had extra boys in vain, and as soon as he returned to the inn, he heard the familiar sound of the flute, which was Yan Hanqiu's.
Yan Shuyu didn't allow Yan Hanqiu to play the flute at all, for fear of attracting eyes that shouldn't be attracted, what's wrong today?
He carefully distinguished, and found that the sound of the flute was not from Yan Hanqiu's house, but from other rooms, and he couldn't help but be vigilant, but he didn't expect that after he broke into the door, what he saw was the scene of Yan Hanqiu being held hostage.
Ouyang Shaoming was furious, so he sprayed the ** on his body at any time and stabbed him to death.
"Mr. Ouyang, what should we do? Sister...... It was my sister who gave me to this man. Yan Hanqiu cried.
"Don't be afraid." Ouyang Shaoming said calmly: "We are almost in Qingzhou. I'll take care of that. ”
One person has been killed left and right, there are more lice and no itching, and there are more debts without worrying.
Wiped the Xueliang sharp knife in his hand, Ouyang Shaoming pushed the shopkeeper Wu under the bed, wiped the blood with the clothes that the shopkeeper Wu had fallen on the ground, and threw it under the bed.
He pulled Yan Hanqiu out of the door and locked the door from the outside, this house that was temporarily occupied by Shopkeeper Wu was the same as before, as if no one came to live at all.
"You rest in the house for a while, and I'll go and explain it to your sister." Ouyang Shaoming touched Yan Hanqiu's head, asked her to go back to the house and lie on her bed, and then fed her a soothing pill.
Yan Hanqiu nodded, she was tired and scared today, and after a while, she fell asleep in a daze.
When Yan Hanqiu got up again, her body swayed, she stood up, only to find herself lying in a narrow carriage.
Lifting the curtain, I saw a familiar back figure sitting on the wheel to catch the car, the horse's ticking hooves sounded on the path, the car squeaked, it was dark outside, and a full moon sprinkled endless silver light, for a while, Yan Hanqiu felt super satisfied, and didn't even want to ask why they weren't with Yan Shuyu.
Ouyang Shaoming found Yan Hanqiu up, turned around and smiled at her: "Are you awake?" There's water in the pot, it's still warm, you drink a little. As he spoke, he handed the water bladder hanging next to the car to Yan Hanqiu.
Yan Hanqiu snorted, drank water, and asked, "Where is my sister?" ”
"Your sister knows that she was wrong, and she won't come to us in the future, so let's go to Yuhu City now and go to Princess Ning." Ouyang Shaoming said calmly.
"Hmmm! If only we had told her earlier, I'm so sad to stay with her. Yan Hanqiu said obediently. In fact, she had already keenly heard that Ouyang Shaoming was not completely telling her the truth, but as long as this man was for her good, why did she have to know the truth, what was it to pretend to be deaf and dumb.
I don't know how long I walked, the sun slowly rose, Ouyang Shaoming's eyes were full of black shadows, and he said to Yan Hanqiu: "I looked at the map, there is a small village next to here, let's go over and rest, even if I can hold it, the horse can't hold it." ”
"Hmmm! Good. Yan Hanqiu agreed.
Ouyang Shaoming turned around and smiled at Yan Hanqiu: "By the way, I have prepared a set of clothes for you, you can change into them." It's a boy's clothes, will you belong to a boy's hair? Do you want me to help you? ”
"Don't do it!" Yan Hanqiu hurriedly stuck out her tongue, got back into the car, and changed the clothes that Ouyang Shaoming had prepared for her.
After a while, the two got out of the car, and at this time, Yan Hanqiu was surprised to find that Ouyang Shaoming was not lame when he walked.
"I used to pretend to be crippled just to confuse people's minds, but now that we've escaped, we don't need to do that anymore." Ouyang Shaoming said; "Come, I'll help you paint your eyebrows with charcoal, although you are wearing a boy's clothes now, you are still too delicate."
As he spoke, he took out the supplies from his package and gently smeared them on Yan Hanqiu's face, Yan Hanqiu's face was touched by his hand from time to time, and he only felt that his face was hot and shy.
The two of them were neatly dressed, looking like ordinary big and small men, especially Ouyang Shaoming, who didn't know where to get the scholar's green scarf and bookcase, dressed like an ordinary middle-aged scholar with his son on a study tour.
As soon as he opened his mouth, it was a Qingzhou accent, but the content of his speech was crepe, and he must be called Kong Sheng, and he quickly won the favor of the villagers and asked him to live with Yan Hanqiu. Yan Hanqiu had already been instructed to hide behind him and not speak, as if he was very timid.
Because Ouyang Shaoming spoke Qingzhou dialect, no one was suspicious at all, and the two slept peacefully and ate a stable meal. The next morning, I got into the carriage and hit the road.
Leaving the village, Yan Hanqiu was surprised and said, "Mr. Ouyang, you are so versatile, you can even speak Qingzhou dialect." ”
"I've been in Qingzhou and the barbarian tribe for a long time." Ouyang Shao meditated on the past, and didn't want to mention it more, his face was heavy: "Don't worry, I will definitely take you to Yuhu City." ”
The two of them traveled day and night, and when they passed by a big town, because the horses they bought at the beginning were already tired, Ouyang Shaoming simply bought a batch of healthy horses again, and at the same time went to a grocery store once and bought a large bag of lime powder.
Yan Hanqiu was puzzled and asked him: "Let's just buy horses, why do we buy lime powder." ”
"It's hot now, so be prepared with some lime powder." Ouyang Shaoming said.
Yan Hanqiu didn't understand, she didn't know much about medical science, but in the next few days, the flies, mosquitoes and other things that she often encountered on the road were really much less, Yan Hanqiu praised Ouyang Shaoming several times, and said that she slept in the carriage a lot more stable.
Along the way, when they passed by villages and towns where people lived, they were already able to see the official notices from the bulletin boards to hunt down a man and a woman to kill the murderers. There is a childish ** on it, a poor and vicious ugly man, and it is noted that the ugly man is a lame man, with a large burn scar on his body, and the two people are from the capital, speaking fluent Beijing Mandarin.
Now Yan Hanqiu is dressed as a little boy, while Ouyang Shaoming is not lame at all, and his accent is still native to Qingzhou, so no one doubts the two of them.
Unconsciously, Yuhu City was far away.
Until she entered the city gate, Yan Hanqiu couldn't believe it, looking at the surrounding Yuhu City, which was very different from the scenery of the capital, she twisted herself twice: "This is not a dream!" ”
Ouyang Shaoming inquired a little on the road, and he knew where the Ning Wangfu in Yuhu City was.
He drove the carriage, and in the carriage was Yan Hanqiu, standing in front of King Ning's mansion, talking to the janitor.
"Please tell the old man that Princess Ning is the mother, and say that her relatives in Beijing have been found." Ouyang Shaoming said politely.
Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, he saw two young men armed with knives and guns running out of the door, and without saying a word, they knocked him down, and the other person slashed off the curtain with the tip of a knife, and said, "Good fellow! You're really here, I've been waiting for you for a long time! ”
Yan Hanqiu was taken aback! Didn't Ouyang Shaoming say that Sister Yan would take them in, what's going on!
"I am really Princess Ning's relative, I am her sister-in-law......"
"Humph! The mother has already commanded it! It's not her sister-in-law, we don't dare to catch it! These people restrained Ouyang Shaoming, and they didn't take Yan Hanqiu in their eyes, and tied her up when they got in the car.
"What are you going to do with me!" Yan Hanqiu screamed.
"Wherever you come from, I'll send you back!" The two men said, "Our mother will never see you." ”
Since Yan Qingge received Yan Shuyu's letter, her heart was very angry, although Le Yi promised that Yan Shuyu would be stopped, but she herself was not particularly relieved, so she used double insurance to let people be on duty in the concierge day and night, if a woman said that she was found from Beijing, it was her sister-in-law, and she immediately tied up the person and sent it back to the palace in the capital.
And she, don't even see Yan Shuyu at a glance! lest she couldn't help but solve Yan Shuyu.
"Nope! I don't want to go back! Yan Hanqiu's eyes were full of tears: "I want to see my sister." Please, my sister will definitely see me. ”
At this time, Ouyang Shaoming probably came back to his senses. Yan Qingge would never treat Yan Hanqiu like this, so this group of people probably mistook them for someone else, for example, Yan Shuyu!
"Let us go, the one you want to send back to the palace is not her. If you look closely, she's only twelve years old, and she's far from the wrong age of the person you're looking for. Ouyang Shaoming said.
These people were stunned for a moment, and carefully looked at Yan Hanqiu, who was tied up by them, and sure enough, a tender face seemed to be able to pinch out water, but it really didn't look like the beautiful and moving queen in the legend - besides, that queen was already twenty years old, and this one under their hands was childish, and it was definitely not the face that a person in his twenties should have.
"The person you're looking for is in the toilet bowl under the car." Ouyang Shaoming said.
The guards glanced at each other, reached out and took out the drinking toilet hanging under the car, and they all felt that Ouyang Shaoming was messing around. How could such a big person hide in a small place like a drinking toilet? What this man said is probably a clue to the person Niangniang is looking for!
There was a pair of drinking toilets, one of which was empty and there were some traces of water, which seemed to be what they used on the road.
In the other, there was a large package, the inside of the barrel was extremely dry, and there were a little traces of dust and white, and the barrel was filled with a heavy unknown thing, and it was tightly wrapped.
As soon as the package was opened, a large cloud of white powder came out of it, scattered all over the ground, giving off a choking smell, which was lime powder. And in the center of the lime powder, a spherical object rolled out, rolled several times, and then stopped. The spherical object was covered with lime powder, and its shape looked a little strange, and upon closer inspection, I could barely make out that it was a human head!
