Chapter 3: Saving orphans, there are weirdness
Shi also looked out of the car and found that next to the broken bridge, there were still several men in rough clothes, pointing ahead.
After Nan Guo Min'er found the stone's gaze, she groaned for a moment, then jumped out of the carriage and asked the people, "How many people, is this the only way down the mountain?" β
"No, we were supposed to go down the mountain today to sell hares for rice, but we didn't expect such a thing to happen. Hey, I still have a few children waiting to eat at home, what can I do? β
There was a younger hunter next to the big man, who pondered for a moment, and said with some hesitation: "Actually, there is not only this way down the mountain, we can also ...... it."
"No way!" Dahan refused without thinking about it, and at the same time looked at Nan Guo Min'er and Shi with some vigilance, and then said: "Let's go, we're thinking of some other ways to go, and standing here won't solve anything." β
Looking at the figures of those people leaving, Nan Guo Min'er muttered: "If you want to say it or not, there must be something strange in this!" Turning to look at the old man behind him, Nan Guo Min'er asked unrelentingly, "Where is the place that person said just now, you must know it!" Take us down from there now! β
"No!" The old man waved his hand in a panic and said, "The girl doesn't know, that place ...... That place is very evil, and if you enter it, you will only go and never return. The only one who made it back to the village alive was mad, and he went crazy all day. β
Rolling her eyes coldly, Nan Guo Min'er said disdainfully: "Don't scare me with those ghostly things, there are more terrifying things in this world than people's hearts?" Oh, if you take us there, this ingot of gold will be yours! As she spoke, Nan Guo Min'er took out a golden ingot and shook it in front of the old man.
"This ......" the old man hesitated obviously, and then his heart was ruthless, "No matter how much money you give, I have to have my life to spend it!" The most I can do is send you down the hole, and the way inside is up to you! β
"Deal! You lead the way! β
Nan Guo Min'er also helped the stone out of the carriage and followed behind the old man unhurriedly.
"You're such a daring girl." Shi Shi clasped his hands together, put them on his lap, and said softly, "Where those big men are afraid, you don't even blink your eyes, you are really a heroine among women." β
"Come on, don't you still want to go and see the excitement," Nan Guo Min'er was not dazed by the false compliment of the stone, and pouted, "I saw your funny gaze just now!" β
"Heh, you're getting to know me better and better."
"Who wants to know you!" Nan Guo Min'er's face turned unnaturally red, and she tilted her head to the side, deliberately ignoring him.
After walking forward for a quarter of an hour, the old man stopped, with a look of fear on his face, pointed to the entrance of a cave blocked by a big stone in front of him, and said, "This is it." Once you're inside, just follow the path inside, and you'll be able to walk for about an hour, and you'll be able to reach the bottom of the mountain. β
When the old man had finished speaking, he turned around and left, as if he would be haunted by evil spirits if he stayed for a quarter of an hour longer.
Nan Guo Min'er hurriedly called from behind: "Hey, don't you want money?" β
Unexpectedly, the old man didn't even look back, waved his hand and said, "I never make money from dying people!" Keep it for yourselves! β
"Hmph, you dare to curse me!" Nan Guo Min'er raised her eyebrows and said with disdain, "Hey, are you afraid?" If you're scared, you can stay here. β
"I'm a person who has been through nine deaths, do you think I'll be afraid of these things?" The stone slid his wheelchair forward and said nonchalantly, "There's only one way we can go now, so no matter what awaits us in front of us, we can only keep walking." β
The stone "we" made Nan Guo Min'er's heart beat suddenly. She loved to hear him talk about their relationship like this, with a sense of intimacy that no one could disturb.
The corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, and Nan Guo Min'er followed, her steps clear, and she didn't care about what was about to happen.
After entering the cave, Shi took out a fire fold, lit the torch, tried to explore the inside, and said: "The air in here is moist, and it is obvious that it has only recently been excavated, and it is not a mysterious man-eating cave. β
Hearing this, Nan Guo Min'er walked to the wall, stretched out her hand and rubbed it, and there was indeed a wet touch on her fingertips. But she agrees with the stone, saying: "The soil is wet, probably because there is a water source nearby, and it is soaked up." Why do you think so sure that this is a recent excavation? β
The torch was thrown at the ground, and the stone smiled and said, "It's simple, because there are footprints on the ground." β
Following the firelight, Nan Guo Min'er really saw a few footprints on the ground. Looking at it like that, I'm afraid it's more than one person. Such simple things will be missed, which makes Nan Guo Min'er a little embarrassed, but fortunately she is standing behind the stone, so that people can't see her blushing face.
"Since there is something strange here, why do you have to come in, do you have to calculate for nothing?" Nan Guo Min'er grabbed the handle of the wheelchair and was about to push the stone out.
But Shi went back and held Nan Guo Min'er's palm, straightened his face and said, "We can't go out now!" Since they want to calculate us, they must have blocked the back road, so even if you return the same way, you will not be able to get out. It's better to move on and see what they have in mind, and then we can have a countermeasure. β
Nan Guo Min'er didn't hear what the stone said, she only looked at the white palm of the stone, which was covering her soft wattle. The dry and gentle touch fluctuated the softest place in Min'er's heart, making her, who was used to a cold life, suddenly feel the urge to cry.
Sensing Nan Guo Min'er's strange appearance, Shi realized that his hand was holding someone else's, and he hurriedly pulled it away, lowered his eyebrows and said, "Sorry, it's abrupt." With that, the stone pushed the wheelchair on its own and slowly moved forward.
Fingertips brushed over the skin that had just been touched by the stone, Nan Guo Min'er couldn't help but bend the corners of her mouth, and her mood was also good. Even now in the dark of a cave, there is still an urge to sing merrily.
Shi didn't notice Nan Guo Min'er's little daughter's mentality, he was just acting on his instincts, it seemed that he had done such a thing before, so now he had a feeling of being handy.
After about half an hour's effort, he was still uneventful, and the surroundings were so quiet that only the footsteps of people could be heard, and there was no abnormality. Such quietness makes people can't help but slack off, especially Nan Guo Min'er, who is not focusing on this at the moment.
Looking at the back of the stone, Nan Guo Min'er asked a little shyly: "Hey, when I checked the pulse, I found that you were still in perfect shape, and I thought about it, you should not be married yet." β
The stone paused suddenly, and then asked a little uncomfortably, "Why, men also have a perfect body?" β
"How can it not be, that you men are only allowed to demand the loyalty of their wives, and that we are not?" Nan Guo Min'er said with a smile, "Anyway, you haven't gotten married, and you have amnesia, so don't bother looking for the past, isn't it good to live in the present?" β
Nan Guo Min'er waited expectantly for the stone's answer, but the stone stopped and became very quiet. Such silence lifted Nan Guo Min'er's heart, and she couldn't help but clench her palms, staring at the back of the stone a little nervously. But on second thought, why did I pray to him like a beggar? If he dares not to listen to himself, give him the most poisonous poison in the world, and see which one he chooses between life and memory!
With such a plan in her heart, Nan Guo Min'er opened her lips and was about to scold, but when her red lips moved slightly, she saw a figure in front of her suddenly pounce on her, making Nan Guo Min'er fall backwards defenselessly, and at the same time screamed in her mouth.
"Ah,,"
Between the lightning and flint, the stone turned around and shot two short swords, and with the sound of the wind breaking through the air, I saw two figures fall out and fall to the ground weakly. The dagger was stuck in their throats, and their eyes were still wide open, as if they couldn't believe it. And those appearances are clearly the two big men I just met at the entrance of the cave.
Pushing away the stunned Nan Guo Min'er, Shi stared at the front with his eyes grim, and reprimanded: "You have already exposed your identity, just stand up and compare it, in this way, it can be regarded as letting you die a decent death!" β
The sound of the stone was as deep as a bell, and it was heard that the deer in Nan Guo Min'er's heart was bumping, but the person who was scolded by the stone did not have such a good interest, and stood out from the shadows with a sneer, staring at the stone with a pair of gloomy eyes, as if looking at a dying person, and smiled bloodthirstily: "Hmph, the old man really underestimated you, I didn't expect that you are a cripple and have a little effect!" β
"You're that old man!" Nan Guo Min'er glared, looked at the gray-haired old man, instantly understood what was coming, and turned to say angrily, "Damn, it turns out that you have been calculating us all along!" β
"Hmph, I just understand now, it's too late!" The old man smiled coldly, his voice was full of inexplicable excitement about the killing, and he said eagerly, "If you two want to live, you'd better listen to my arrangement." If you forcibly resist, I'm afraid you will suffer from broken bones and broken skin! Nan Guo Min'er, you are quite familiar with pharmacology, you should know what poison you have now, right? β
Nan Guo Min'er's expression was grim, and she secretly mobilized the breath in her body, and then sneered, and said, "I'm embarrassed to show off that little trick!" Immediately, Nan Guo Min'er saw the lightning, swept to the old man's side, his fingers were as fast as lightning on several big points around him, and then he took out a pill from his pocket and stuffed it into the old man's mouth, and luckily sent the pill down, only then did he look at him proudly and said, "You are really a stupid subordinate!" I don't want to be clever if I want to be subdued. Fiddling with pharmacology in front of me Nan Guo Min'er, saying that you are stupid, or naΓ―ve? β
