"Jin Gui, where are we running now?" Qiong'er's low voice interrupted his reverie.

"Sister Qiong'er, is your fiancé in Yi County?" Jin Gui asked a seemingly unrelated question.

"No, he's a buddy in the Juxian Teahouse in Jing County," Qiong'er's eyes were slightly red when he said this, "He worked hard to earn money every day in order to redeem me." ”

"Is there anyone else in his family?"

"It's gone. By the way, why are you asking this?"

"Then let's go to the post station!" Jin Gui replied without hesitation.

Qiong'er said in surprise: "Then won't the people of the Jin family find us directly?"

"We talked as we walked. ”

Jin Gui led Qiong'er away and said, "Absolutely not, I have analyzed it." It takes half an hour for a man to travel between the post station and the golden house during the day, but now it is night, and it is snowing so heavily, and with a woman like you, it is normal to go back and forth for three quarters of an hour. And Jin Er is not used to us, so he won't worry too much, and it is estimated that it will take an hour or so to realize that we haven't gone back yet. ”

"Even after an hour, he will go to the inn to look for us, and he will still find us. ”

"Absolutely not, he will definitely return to Jin Laogou, Jin Laogou slept 'dead' at that time, he must not dare to alarm, so," Speaking of this, Jin Gui paused, and sighed secretly, the plan is still not thought through, now although Qiong'er has escaped from the tiger's mouth with herself, all her original escape plans are bound to be difficult to realize, what should I do, forget it, first escape to the post station and then think about it in the long run.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "So he will go to the embroidery building to return to the golden dog woman." Jin Gui seemed to be amused by the title he had invented for Mrs. Jin, and laughed softly, and then said, "That mother-in-law must still be chatting with her daughter, after all, she only comes back once a year." At that time, a pair of mouths found that they had not ordered us to go to the post station to pick up our things, and then they would know that we had escaped from the Jin family. ”

"Isn't that the result still the same?" asked Qiong'er, puzzled.

"It's definitely different, if Jin Er didn't return to the golden dog woman and came to find it himself, he would definitely go to the post station, but he wouldn't come to find it directly. And when the Jin family finds out that we have escaped, they will definitely look elsewhere, after all, the people of the Jin family will not think that we can be stupid enough to tell them where to flee. Jin Gui said, "Besides, the heavy snow of an hour has already covered all our footprints, and they can't find them according to their footprints." He added.

"What about when we get to the station, how are we going to escape?"

"The original plan was that I would run by myself, so I went directly over the post station, hid at the east gate, and went out of the east gate as soon as the city gate opened at dawn, and then ran wherever I went. Now that you are added, you are thinly dressed and can't stand the cold, so we can only stay at the post station and find an opportunity for you to get on the stagecoach to Jingxian to join your fiancé. As for me, I'll find a way to run again. ”

"I'm the one who bothered you, and if you hadn't taken me with you, you'd have run away easily. Joan said apologetically

"Don't say that, it's a little troublesome for us to get out of the city now, but it's not a problem. Jin Gui said.

"There's one more thing I have to tell you. After analyzing the pros and cons, Jin Gui said to Qiong'er seriously.

"What's the matter?"

"The old golden dog poisoned me. ”

"Ah?!" Suddenly hearing this sudden news, Qiong'er couldn't help but stop and screamed.

"I'm not a scholar in Jingxian County at all, my name is Shi An, and my master is Zhao Jingxu and Zhao Langzhong. It wasn't until noon today that I learned that my master's family was killed by Jin Laogou and his son-in-law. Half a year ago, when Master was killed, I suspected that this matter had nothing to do with him, but there was no evidence, so I took the opportunity of his family to recruit servants to get involved, in order to find out the truth. Today, at noon, when the family was drinking, I heard Jin Laogou say how to kill my master's family. ”

"How is this possible, we were present when they were eating, and we didn't hear them talk about it?Could it be that when we were talking about the Zhao family's land? That's not right, then we were all arranged outside the door, so far away, how could you hear it?" Qiong'er asked suspiciously.

"I'm not like you, my five senses are much stronger than yours. Jin Gui, or the young man who should be called Shi An, said proudly.

"What are the five senses?" asked Joan.

"The five senses are the five sensory organs, sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch. When my tutor was alive, he often said that my five senses were far stronger than ordinary people, and I was a good material for being a doctor. I can see the details that ordinary people can't see or often ignore, I can hear all kinds of subtle sounds that ordinary people can't hear, and I can distinguish the varieties of medicinal herbs by smelling and tasting them with my eyes closed. It was too far away for me to say, but I could still hear the conversation five feet away, so I could hear their conversation in the room very clearly. When I heard that my master and mother were killed by them with poison, I accidentally dropped the wine jug in a fit of rage. ”

Shi An continued: "Jin Laogou arranged for me to work in the firewood room in the future, so there is no way to get close to these two guys, and it is impossible to kill them both at the same time." And the carriages and horses of the Wolf Head Gang are placed at the post station, and it seems that the surname Sun will leave in a day or two, so there will be no chance to kill him this time. Only tonight can I take the opportunity to apologize to Jin Laogou to approach him and poison him, otherwise I won't even have this opportunity in the future, so I took advantage of his tea to take the drug. As for you, Sister Qiong'er, the words of Jin Laogou who want to marry you also make me nonsense, I just want to trick you into leaving the Jin family to avoid my involvement, I really can't help it. Shi An explained in one breath.

"It's nothing, I have to thank you for it, I wouldn't have made up my mind to leave the Jin family without you. It's only a matter of time before the old golden dog spoils me, and I'm very happy to poison this old dog, so I want to thank you for helping me escape from the tiger's mouth. Qiong'er said, "Speaking of which, Zhao Langzhong is also my savior. I was seriously ill when I was seven years old, and it was Zhao Langzhong's three doses of decoction that brought me back, so I was sad for a long time about his death. By the way, how did you get poison?"

"In the afternoon, after I went to Liu Ji Pharmacy to pick up medicine for Jin Laogou, I went to several nearby pharmacies to buy more than a dozen ordinary herbs, and simply mixed a few of them, and boiling water was a deadly poison. If you drink too much wine, you will be thirsty, and you will have to drink a lot of water, so I am waiting for this moment at the door of the main room, and I will make tea for Jin Laogou for you, and this poison will be brewed. The drunken taste is naturally not so sensitive, so it is not so difficult for him to drink. Shi An briefly explained the idea of killing Jin Lao Dog in one breath.

"Oh, I see, how did you suspect him in the first place?"

Shi An replied: "Not long after Jin Laogou came to Yi County, he sent someone to find the master, saying that he wanted to buy a medicinal field, and the master told him that it was an inheritance left by his ancestors, especially since there were still many precious old medicinal materials for ten or twenty years in the field, which could not be transplanted, so he was not willing to sell it for any money. After several conversations, we broke up unhappily, and the last time Jin Laogou came in person, and when he left, he threatened my master with a menacing attitude, saying, 'Wait, you will have a good look'. On the second day, the master arranged for me to go to Qingxian to collect some medicinal materials and come back, in fact, those medicinal materials are available in Yixian, I was quite puzzled at the time, why did the master give up the near and far, the master just said that the quality of the medicinal materials in Qingxian was higher, and I didn't dare to ask more and went, until now I guessed that the master might have seen that something was wrong, and in order to save my life, he deliberately sent me away to Qingxian. On the third day, the master's family encountered the so-called disaster of forced debts. Master has been a healer of his parents all his life, and he is kind to people everywhere, except for the gap with Jin Huan, in addition, I really can't think of a second enemy, and I haven't borrowed any debts, thinking about it, this old Jin dog is the most suspicious, so I found a way to go to his house to find out. Finally, the sky had eyes for me to figure out the truth. ”

Seeing that it was only a few miles away from the post station, Qiong'er asked again, "What are you going to do next?"

"Let's escape from Yixian first, it's only a matter of time before we kill the surname Sun. Sister Qiong'er, on the way, I just thought that I didn't care about the Jin family when I ran away, I only thought that I didn't want to work in the firewood room before I ran, and there was no need to hire another cheap maid tomorrow, and there was no need to report Jin Laogou late at night, so his death would not be found out until tomorrow morning at the earliest. And when the city gate was opened in the morning, I ran away, and it was too late for them to close the gate and check it. But you are different, you were bought by the Jin family, with his family's stingy style, someone will definitely inform Jin Laogou tonight, it is estimated that his death will be found at that time, and he will definitely start chasing us overnight, and when the city gate is opened in the morning, it will definitely be strictly investigated, and we will not be able to run away at that time. ”

"What should I do then?" asked Joan anxiously.

"Yes," Shi An thought for a moment, "For the time being, no one would think that Jin Laogou was killed because of my master's business, so my master's house is safe for the time being, let's hide there first, and then think about it in the long run." ”
