Because if you come to find someone, you won't look for them.

They had never been out of the village, so how could they possibly find their heads?

But Wu Mian next to him was different, he broke out in a cold sweat, turned around and wanted to run.

He was originally a thief, and there is no need to say more about how the thief felt when he saw the official.

"Everyone, don't be impatient, they're just here to do business, it's okay, when they're done with their business, they'll leave!" The village chief waved his hand at everyone, and saw the officers and soldiers walking around their homes, and when they went, the villagers were a little commotion, worried that the officers and soldiers would destroy their homes.

But the people led by the local officials were afraid that their actions would be too rough and dislike the people above, so even if they let people search, let them kiss their own hands and feet, and don't break other people's things.

When Wu Mian saw those officers and soldiers scattered to search, he thought about leaving and returning to his own home, first hiding Li Jicai, he had a cellar at home, maybe he could temporarily hide Li Jicai in the cellar pile and cover it with cabbage.

Just when Wu Mian was about to leave, in order to maintain order, those officers and soldiers had already encircled these villagers in advance, not allowing them to move around and obstruct the search.

So when Wu Mian made a look that was boring and wanted to pretend to be casual and walk away, he was naturally blocked.

The others wanted to follow Wu Mian's example, and when they left, they were also blocked.

"What are you doing?! Stay here honestly, don't leave, be honest. A soldier at the head stepped forward and shouted at the villagers.

The villagers had never seen such a posture, so they were naturally frightened by him and stood in place and did not dare to move.

Some children holding children were so frightened that they cried, and the mother hurriedly covered the child's mouth to prevent him from crying.

The village chief also helped wave his hand to reassure the villagers, signaling them to pass over quickly and not worry too much.

How could other people have Wu Mian in a tormented mood at this moment, Wu Mian was so anxious that his palms were bleeding.

I knew that he would go home first, in fact, when he saw it, he had the intention of retreating, but he was pulled by the villagers next to him, so he passed it together, if he hadn't been pulled, it is estimated that he would be at home now.

Thinking of this, Wu Mian couldn't help lowering his head, and looked at the villager who had just pulled him with hatred from the corner of his eye.

Then he gritted his teeth, exhaled deeply, and secretly prayed that if his wife had the strength, it would be best to drag Li Jicai down and hide it.

But he didn't tell his wife that he had robbed and stolen the woman.

If the officers and soldiers rushed to his house, they would probably scare his wife enough.

The more this time, the more calm and composed you must be. Wu Mian constantly hinted at himself, constantly restrained his emotions, and made himself look less abnormal.

He has been a thief for several years, and every time he steals from someone else's home, he always has to worry about whether he will be discovered.

So Wu Mian in the crowd just lowered his head calmly, and then didn't say a word, the expression on his face was very normal, and the hand pinched in his sleeve had been pinched and deformed, and the bone joints were protruding.

Chagouzi Village is not large, with a population of only about 100 people. Even if the officers and soldiers turned the village back and forth several times, it would not take too long, and they deliberately searched carefully.

Soon, several officers and soldiers noticed that there was another family on the hillside that was independent of the village and belonged to the edge of the village.

There are three houses in this family that catch their attention, and even if there are only three houses, they can't be missed or missed.

A group of seven or eight soldiers went to Wu Mian's house.

At that time, Wu Mian and his wife were taking care of those vegetables in the field, and the potato vines were dug up and fed to the livestock, but the potatoes in the field had not yet had time to be dug up.

Wu Mian and his wife planted six furrows of yams, and couldn't wait for Wu Mian to come back to help him dig together, so he took a tool and dug there slowly.

In winter, I can count on this sweet potato to spend the winter, cook a potato porridge, spread a potato cake and bake a potato, all of which are Wu Mian's favorite food.

He, a mother, feels sorry for his son working hard outside, so every year when Wu Mian comes back, he can eat a lot of the potatoes he planted, and this year is no exception.

"Hey! We're here for a routine business, don't be afraid, we'll leave after the search. An officer and soldier saw Wu Mian and his wife bowing their heads, digging intently into the soil, thinking about whether they had entered someone's house or said hello to them.

When Wu Mian heard someone talking to her, she naturally raised her head, and saw that it was someone she had never seen before, dressed in neat armor, and she couldn't help but be a little panicked.

But the other party saw that Wu Mian and his wife were frightened, so he carefully explained to Wu Mian and his wife.

Wu Mian and his wife are not stupid, they are obedient and understandable, and when they heard that the other party was just coming to work and would not hurt her, they had to nod their heads blankly.

The first reaction in my heart was to find my son quickly, I don't know where Wu Mian went, there was a stranger at home, she was a little scared alone, by the way, and Li Jicai who was lying on the bed and couldn't move.

Because it was not arranged in advance, Li Jicai was not hidden by Wu Mian and his wife, she was still lying honestly on the bed of the Wu family at this moment.

Naturally, the officers and soldiers found Li Jicai, and one of them shouted outside, and the one outside who had just been talking to Wu Mian and his wife beckoned to Wu Mian and his wife to come over.

Wu Mian and his wife dropped their hoes, obediently obeyed the instructions, and walked over from the field.

Both hands are restrained, restrained, and they don't know where to put them.

"Who's that woman in your house?" At that time, Li Jicai was sleeping, and she was very weak.

Because after she was knocked off her leg before, she didn't get timely treatment, and the medicine prescribed by the doctor didn't work at all, only a naked splint was clamped on her leg, and Li Jicai fell asleep in pain every night.

came and went, all his energy was consumed, because he was not well treated, and he was not well cared for, he was hungry and full even when he ate, so Li Jicai quickly lost weight, and he was almost useless in bed.

So when the officers and soldiers broke in, Li Jicai opened her eyes in a daze, she thought she was wrong, how could there be officers and soldiers coming?

What kind of place is this, this is in the mountains, and it is impossible for those officers and soldiers to find here. Wu Mian is so confident, they came here after crossing the mountains and mountains, it is impossible, it must be impossible.

But the other party's voice clearly reached her ears, and it was not a hallucination.

Suddenly, Li Jicai's tears slid down her eyes, could it be said that she was saved?

Li Jicai "babbled" for a while, she was so hungry that her head was dizzy, her whole body was fluttering, her stomach was full of sour water, she was dizzy with hunger, and she couldn't speak.

The other party didn't know what etiquette was said so he didn't hear it clearly, and one of them walked to his bedside, and then reached out and pulled her neck, and was obviously stunned after seeing the burn scar on his neck, and then walked out again, and didn't say anything.

Outside the house, the people were interrogating who the woman lying on the bed was and what it had to do with the family.

Wu Mian and his wife were a little stunned by such a question, because her son never told him the identity of this woman, and she didn't know what she was from, no matter how she asked Wu Mian, Wu Mian didn't tell her, but everyone has the mind to avoid trouble, and when she heard the other party ask Wu Mian like this, his old lady trembled and said: "That woman is a daughter-in-law, a cripple." ”

Hearing Wu Mian and his wife say this, the officers and soldiers led by him frowned, and the adults above only said that the woman they were looking for had a scar on her neck, and the woman lying in the room, although she had a scar on her neck, was a cripple.

Wu Mian had quietly removed Li Jicai's splint, he didn't want Li Jicai's leg to be good at all, so he naturally stopped the medicine that Li Jicai should take every day, and mixed some messy things at will.

Li Jicai's leg was obviously abnormal, and those officers and soldiers also found out, so they went out to ask.

Since it's a cripple, it shouldn't be the person the people above are looking for.

Li Jicai's "babbling" voice looked like a patient in the eyes of those officers and soldiers, so he didn't take it seriously.

After Wu Mian and his wife walked into the room, they stood at the door of the room and looked respectful, and there was nothing unusual in the eyes of those officers and soldiers.

I saw that Wu Mian and his wife took out the bedpan in the room very naturally and familiarly, and a foul smell instantly diffused, knocking those officers and soldiers away unconsciously.

The officers and soldiers in other places searched privately, and although they still had some doubts about the woman lying on the bed, they did not pursue it further because the woman was a neck.

And they retreated.

In the process of searching, Wu Mian went through the most tormenting time, and the officers and soldiers of the trial searched his house, and then asked Li Jicai to turn it out.

If Li Jicai is turned out, then he will be completely finished, he has committed so many things in the past, and he doesn't know how to die.

Wu Mian hated to return to his home immediately, but now he was forced to stay with these villagers, and he couldn't do anything, so he could only pray that God would open his eyes and let him get through this pass, and he hid Li Jicai afterwards.

After a long wait, the officers and soldiers finally got in order and all returned.

They brought back a few women with scars on their necks, but most of them were married women, who looked to be about forty or fifty years old, not young women, and their scars were some burns, some burns, some were accidental abrasions or old scars. But in terms of age, it is already possible to exclude most women.

Wu Mian, like the other villagers, tried his best to observe whether there were any people from her own family among the women who came over.

When he looked over one by one and didn't find Li Jicai, he made up his mind.

Li Jicai was not found out, nor was he brought over, no matter whether the officers and soldiers searched their house or not, even if they did, they did not bring Li Jicai over, which is really good.

Perhaps among these people who came to look for him, there was no one who knew Li Jicai at all, and he had never seen Li Jicai.

That's why they let it go.

God has eyes, so that he was not discovered, maybe it is really his life that should not be killed.

Wu Mian lowered his head again, not letting the other villagers see his excited eyes. He was already a little nervous, and he couldn't contain his excitement.

In the process of waiting, Wu Mian almost felt that he was about to suffocate to death, his heart jumped to his throat, and he couldn't press it down.

Well, now he was lucky to dodge, dodge!

Wu Mian shouted excitedly in his heart, but he knew that his danger had not been lifted before these people were completely gone, so he couldn't be happy too soon for the time being.

We'll have to wait and see.

After a while, Xi Zien got up from his seat and walked over, far away.

It wasn't until I came close to the villagers that I walked next to the women who had been brought over.

Xi Zien's eyes swept calmly, and those villagers looked high, Wu Mian was extremely disgusted and disgusted when he saw such an expression.

is the same person, what qualifications does he have to look down on them, what qualifications does he have to be high, is it because of his background? When in my mother's belly, isn't everyone a lump of flesh and blood? Is there still a golden belly and a silver belly?

It's a pity that he can't vent Wu Mian's anger, and he only stands honestly to accept others' reprimands.

But Xi Zien didn't say much, he glanced at the villagers, and the villagers looked at the woman with a scar on her neck who was escorted by the officers and soldiers.

It didn't take much to know that there was no one he was looking for in this crowd, and he didn't see Li Jicai's face.

"Are these people the only ones? Is there any camouflage on their faces? Xi Zien asked naturally, because some people deliberately disguise their faces so that they don't look like they are.

"Back to adults, there are only these people, but there is one more, there is also a scar on the neck, it is said to be his daughter-in-law, but it is a cripple, do you need it? Bring her here? The officers and soldiers asked cautiously tentatively.

As soon as he heard that it was a cripple, Xi Zien frowned, it shouldn't be Li Jicai, right?

After Wu Mian heard this, his heart beat a drum! Trembling all over.
