"Someone is coming!" Qiao Xiaojing and Ah Zi stayed in the dark room, their initial anxiety had been extinguished by the way these inexplicable people ignored them, and they sat helplessly on the kang with hay, silent. Suddenly hearing the sound of the door lock ringing, Qiao Xiaojing smashed Ah Zi who was in a daze, suddenly got off the earthen kang and stood up.

"Two. Ah Zi saw that there seemed to be light coming through the crack in the window, she jumped to the window lightly, and with the help of the light of the horse lamp in the hand of the visitor, she saw two people at the door, one of whom tried to unlock the door.

"What kind of broken lock?" The locksmith tossed for a long time, only heard the sound of "click", but did not open the door lock, so he complained, "How many times have I said, this broken lock is broken, it has rusted to death, don't use it anymore, don't use it anymore, but no one listens, now it's okay, and two people are locked in, and I don't want people to come out." ”

"Don't complain," said the other, "who told us that there are too few houses and too few spare rooms? Of course, if the two men are okay, just tie them up, on the tree or on the pillar, and we don't have to toss so many things. ”

"Yes, I'll try again, if it doesn't work, I'll smash the lock. ”

"Okay! Let's try again, try not to smash the lock--- the people locked in the house must have something to lock, in case they are spies or spies, once they escape, then our situation here will be completely exposed, then we ......"

"Be quiet," the man who was trying to unlock the lock turned his head and reminded the people behind him, "It's so loud, aren't you afraid of being heard by the people inside?" ”

"You, you, you, what's wrong with you?!"

"I see something wrong with you, do you think that a woman is here, and your heart is itching again?"

"Is it sick, can you talk nonsense?"

Pretending to be a gentleman in front of others may have people believing you, but don't pretend to be in front of me, I don't know about the ugly things you did. That's fine, if you like which, when the door opens and you go in, you don't have to come out......"

The two of you pushed me, and there was a weird laugh.

"You heard everything," Ah Zi said with a little complaint, "What did these two guys say, and said that they are both good people, first of all, are these two guys good people?"

"Don't you raise the bar," Qiao Xiaojing whispered, "Are you serious? We've been here for most of the day, and I haven't seen anyone do anything to you and me." Don't be too nervous, wait for them to come in, let's see the opportunity, if something is wrong, strike first, surrender, or we will take advantage of the night to get out of here. ”

"What if I can't escape?"

"You're too unconfident, with your skills and mine, if you want to get out of here, I don't think they can necessarily stop you......"

"You two," suddenly shouted in the distance, "what are you doing there?"

"Report to the team leader," replied the two men at the door, who suddenly stood upright, and the guy with the lantern came, "We're here to deliver food to the two people who are locked up here, and the lock is a little rusty and hard to open." I've been tinkering with it for a long time, but I still haven't opened it, so I'm not discussing what to do!"

"Really?" said the man standing in the distance.

"Team Leader Zhang," the other person hurriedly said, "he's right, that's it. This lock has long been useless, or it will be smashed, and it will take a lot of effort to open the door. ”

"Team leader, what do you say about this? This meal is almost cold, it's cold, and if you don't open it again, you have to freeze it." ”

"Try again," said the team leader, "if you really can't open it, smash it." ”

As soon as the words fell, Qiao Xiaojing and Ah Zi saw that Team Leader Zhang had left, and they didn't know where they went, and then they heard the sound of the door lock "clicking......

"If not, just smash it. ”

"Wait a minute, I'll try again, if not, we'll smash the lock......"

In the backyard of Sai Xi Shi Tofu Workshop in the county seat, because Qiao Xiaojing and A Zi have not come back for a long time, and they have not received any news from them, they have already become a pot of porridge.

"You can't hear you wrong, right?" Qiao Shuangxi didn't believe what Cuiyu said, and stood against the wall, anxiously smacking the dry tobacco pot, wisps of green smoke came out of his mouth and nostrils, fluttering above his head.

"How many times have I said it," Cuiyu said angrily, "Why don't you believe it?" Team Leader Qiao said it himself, let me and Dazhi stare at the addict Fugen to see why he suddenly came to us from the provincial capital; ”

"It's just that you're the only one who hears it, in case you hear it wrong......" The sac nose frowned, crouching on the threshold.

"yes, what can you do if you hear me wrong?" said the cigarette pouch as he took a sharp puff and coughed.

"yes, yes......"

"Who has heard it wrong, not afraid of 10,000, just afraid of this in case......"

Including Mao Dan, most people felt that what Qiao Shuangxi and Bag Nose said made sense, but Cuiyu, who told the truth, was a little embarrassed, standing in front of everyone, her lips moved slightly but she didn't know what to say.

"Okay," the big man sitting on the side couldn't stand it anymore, roared, and then said, "Regardless of whether what the deputy team leader said is true or not, but another thing is true, that is, the team leader and Ah Zi have not moved yet." I really don't know what's the use of the big guys arguing and shouting so much? If making a lot of noise can get them back, then I'll accompany you. ”

Hearing the big man's words, everyone's eyes turned to the big man, and the sound of competition also came down.

"Since everyone is no longer competing," the big man saw that everyone was quiet for a while, and then said, "Then discuss where to go to find Team Leader Qiao and Ah Zi, and say any good opinions and suggestions, as long as it makes sense, I will listen to him." ”

"Oh," the big man glanced at the crowd, and after a long time no one spoke, he shook his head and lamented, "what the hell is going on, why is no one talking? ”

"Dazhi," said the big man in a huff, "you say, what do you think?"

"I, I, I don't know where they are, and I don't know what to do...... "Dazhi seems to be sleepwalking.

The big man's sharp gaze moved over everyone, and seeing everyone, including Cuiyu, drooping their heads, he took a deep breath helplessly, walked out of the tofu workshop alone, and disappeared into the black alleyway in the blink of an eye......

"Oh my God," at this time, the two guys outside Qiao Xiaojing's house finally opened the door, and with the help of the lantern, they walked in one after another, and the guy who opened the lock sighed, "I'm so tired, I didn't expect it to be so difficult to deliver a meal to the two of you!"

"Fortunately, the lock is open," the other person put the lunch box in front of Qiao Xiaojing and Ah Zi, and said with a smile, "Otherwise, you two will be really hungry." What are you waiting for? The food is already cold, and if you wait any longer, it will really freeze. ”

"Who knows if you have any drugs in this meal?" Ah Zi saw that guy take the food out of the food box, a smile appeared on his face from time to time, and he remembered what they said outside the house, so he naturally didn't dare to believe them easily.

"How do you talk?" The guy who picked the lock was suddenly annoyed, and said with a straight face, "I'm tired of opening the door lock and bringing you food, even if I don't appreciate it, I should be hungry." ”

"After all, we are out of the house," Qiao Xiaojing hurriedly explained, "Life is not familiar, it is right to be careful in everything, and you don't need to be as knowledgeable as us." Of course, no one wants to have an accident, but unfortunately many times we don't want to have an accident, but that unfortunate thing still can't be avoided. Okay, thank you two for bringing me food, and we'll eat. ”

"Better than her, finally said a human word. The man with the food box stood aside and muttered something to himself, which was heard clearly by the rest of the room, albeit in a small voice.

"What do you mean?" Ah Zi just picked up the chopsticks and picked up the bowl, but the chopsticks had not touched the edge of the bowl, but when she heard a sentence that squeezed her, she put down the dishes and chopsticks, suddenly stood up, pointed at the man and shouted, "In the end, you still don't let people eat?" Really, I don't know if you brought us food, or did you find a place to spread it? Do you think that we are prisoners who are easy to bully, you can say whatever you want, and you can scold if you want? If you don't want to send food, don't send it, it's not that we begged you to deliver food. ”

"Why, I'm going to be angry with you, can't I?"

"No!" Ah Zi said angrily, "Although we are countrymen, although we are pitiful, we are not cheap enough to be angry if anyone wants to. Tell you, don't think that we are soft persimmons, if not, then you can try!"

"Who do you think you are? Dare to go wild here, do you think this is the place for you to go wild? I tell you, honestly, there is still a chance to leave here, if you are as vexatious as a shrew, be careful of your dog's life. ”

"Who is a shrew, who is vexatious? and wants to take our lives, you also pee and pee to take care of yourself, do you have that ability? Don't think that you can bully the two poor people in the countryside with more of you, I also tell you, the old lady doesn't eat your set, who will lose the dog's life first, who to scare?"

"If it weren't for ......"

"Okay, okay," the other man saw Ah Zi's strong personality, his tone slowed down a lot, and said lightly, "Don't say a word, you woman, we are kind enough to bring you food, if you don't appreciate us, forget it, don't you have to be angry? Let's eat quickly, we are still waiting to collect the bowl and go back." ”

The man took a deep breath and then said, "Forget it, you better eat slowly, let's go first, and this lantern will be left for you." Remember, stop making trouble, it's not good for you. ”

"Thank you!" Qiao Xiaojing nodded, "May I ask ......"

"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask," the guy who was arguing with Ah Zi stopped drinking without waiting for Qiao Xiaojing to finish speaking, and said before leaving, "I advise you to be honest, don't always quarrel, this is no better than other places, deep in the mountains, don't invite wolves." I'll tell you the truth, there are really wolves here at night, believe it or not!"
