Chapter 3: A Narrow Encounter
"Shopkeeper, check out."
The shopkeeper neatly took the abacus and swiped it around, and soon came up with the result, and said with a smile: "Guest officer, two days of room and board, a total of two taels of silver." ”
Mama Li paused, Li Li clearly saw the sigh in the depths of her eyes, and couldn't help lowering her eyelids, hiding all her emotions.
She never thought about it, and even forgot it, it turned out that she also had such a depressed day that she couldn't even get two taels of silver.
Originally, the two-day room and board expenses in this remote place were not worth two taels at all, but Mama didn't want to wronged her, and wanted to give her the best no matter what time she wanted, so along the way, there was not much left of their entanglement.
If this is the case, it is reasonable that Mama would choose to take the risk of climbing over Longhu Mountain.
"Sister Li, you wait here for Mama, Mama will ask two locals to lead the way."
They have never been here and are not familiar with the place, but they know that Longhu Mountain is a shortcut to leave here, but they don't know which direction to go.
Li Li looked at Mama Li, she wanted to speak and stopped, she couldn't say anything, she still remembered the place where she was intercepted in her previous life, if she avoided it this time, would nothing happen?
Both of them are middle-aged people who are not very old, because of the remote location, it is not easy to survive, and many of them are physically strong, even if you look at it more, it makes people feel scared.
Although these two people looked vicious, Li Li remembered that if the two of them hadn't dragged the robbers in the first place, she would not have escaped the disaster.
Retracting her gaze, Li Li obediently lay on Mama Li's shoulder, looking drowsy, until she entered Longhu Mountain, when the dense leaves blocked the stinging sunlight, she regained her previous vitality and asked herself to go.
Mama Li is naturally willing, in her eyes, so many things have happened, her own young lady has been silent a lot, and she is no longer as lively as before, seeing that this mountain road is not so steep, since the little lady takes the initiative, then she is also willing to meet this small request.
The two rugged men were a little strange when they saw that she was willing to come down and walk by herself, and one of them did not hide his surprise, only thinking that it was Li Li's whim, and persuaded him: "Little girl, you have to be careful, although this road does not look severe, but it will make people fall when you walk." ”
People like them, who were born and raised, have to make a lot of preparations every time they go to Longhu Mountain, so as not to capsize in the gutter.
Li Li rolled his eyes slyly, and soon smiled, and his slightly emaciated face revealed a sense of innocence and refusal to admit defeat: "Well, if I can't walk later, Mama will hold me!" ”
Mama Li also hurriedly continued: "Two little brothers, please rest assured, we will not cause more trouble to the two of you." ”
What do five-year-olds know? What she should know now is her dependence on Mama Li, so that she can be considered normal in the eyes of others.
She didn't want to reveal her anomaly in front of anyone, let alone be treated as a monster, even if she could repeat what had happened before, she still chose to follow the steps.
Only this time......
Thinking of Qin Yufei, who had not yet grown up, Li Li smiled very honestly, I am afraid that this time, who will lose and who will win, it is not yet known.
The scenery in front of her became more and more familiar, and Li Li stopped at a fork in the road, Mama Li thought she was tired of walking, and was about to step forward to hug her, but Li Li stretched out her hand to block it.
Under the puzzled gaze of the three people, Li Li paused before looking up at the two men, his bright eyes were shining through, and he pointed to a fork in the road that was completely different from his previous life: "Mama, let's go this way, the little yellow flowers there are so beautiful." ”
The man's brows furrowed, and just as he wanted to say something, the other person grabbed his sleeve and shook his head and said, "Forget it, it's not a big deal, it's the same which way." ”
It's just a little bit of a detour this way.
Turning around, Li Li suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, felt the eyes of several people behind him, and hurriedly pretended to be very interested and ran over to pick a few small yellow flowers and put them in the palm of his hand.
"Mama, big brothers, look at this flower, is it beautiful?"
This time, not only Mama Li laughed, but even the two big men who were born and raised in Dragon and Tiger City also laughed.
It was much quieter along the way, but Li Li's right eyelid kept jumping, and she had obviously changed her path, but she still had a bad premonition in her heart, as if something had escaped her calculations.
"Weishan, did you hear any sound?"
The person known as Weishan subconsciously stopped, squatted down and put his ears on the ground and muttered for a while: "It seems that someone is rushing over here, and there are still a lot of people, Weihai, take them to hide first." ”
Soon, several people had to find a ramp to hide.
At this moment, Li Li's heart, which was held by Mama Li, began to beat wildly, making it almost difficult for her to breathe, remembering that it was like this in her previous life, could she only repeat the same mistakes in this life even if she changed her path?
Sensing that something was wrong with Li Li, even if Mama Li was anxious, she could only pat her on the shoulder to express comfort, but now they really didn't dare to move or make a sound.
What if there really are heinous bandits on this mountain?
There is only such a baby bump left in the Li family's big house, she must not live up to the expectations of the old lady, and she must send the little lady to the national capital safely, so that she will be happy and rich for a lifetime!
Weishan and Weihai glanced at each other, it was the first time they had encountered this kind of thing, and their expressions were inevitably serious.
"Hey, there's no one here, Jiang Kun, did you hear the wrong voice? In the wilderness, where will there be the voice of a little doll, look at the fuss you make all day, aren't you frightened by Taifu's words? ”
Glancing around, Jiang Kun's ears moved, and he said impatiently: "Jiang Tao, you'd better be careful, since the Taifu personally sent us to greet him and brought the eldest young master, it means that he is very attentive to the girl of the Li family, if something happens to those two on the road, you and I will be to blame even if we die!" ”
"Got it, got it, I'm just talking." Jiang Tao, who was seized by Jiang Kun and taught a lesson, dared to talk more, quickly apologized and admitted his mistake, and finally complained slightly: "But I don't know what the eldest young master is thinking, he will pick up people well, why did he think of suppressing bandits temporarily?" ”
Jiang Kun shook his head helplessly: "As a subordinate, maybe the young master is moved by compassion and serves the bandits' nest entrenched in Longhu Mountain, so as not to bully the common people and make a fortune!" ”
Although he said this, Jiang Kun was also very puzzled in his heart, the bandits on Longhu Mountain had not been active for a long time, and he had not heard any rumors, if it wasn't for the eldest young master to go this way, how could they know that there was such a big bandit den on the mountain?
