Chapter 80: Seeing Through

Chapter 80

Let's put down Uncle Gui's side and don't mention it, just say Shanniang.

At this time, Shanniang and Hou Jue in the carriage were ignorant of what was happening outside.

Because the rain was getting heavier, Shanniang closed all the window panels on both sides, leaving only a small slit that transmitted light. That Hou Jue thought that he would be able to see his aunt, and he was too excited for a while, and he pulled Shanniang to chatter all the way, which also distracted Shanniang. When she noticed that the carriage was getting faster, it was because of the sudden jolting of the carriage.

Shanniang pricked up her ears in confusion, but apart from the dense rain on the body, she could only hear the "crackling" horsewhip of the coachman. The sound of horses' hooves in front and behind, which could still be faintly heard before, was gone. Shanniang felt that something was not right, so she hurriedly walked past Li's mother and reached out to pull open the window panel on the right side.

Outside the car window, a rattan flashed by, startling Shanniang and Li's mother. The two of them looked closely, only to find that there was a mountain wall outside the car window on this side.

And from the ferry pier to her family's Zhuangzi, it should have been a straight dirt road, and it was impossible to go up the mountain!

Shanniang and Li's mother looked at each other, and both of them suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Mother Li pressed Shanniang back to her seat, wanting to cross her and Hou Jue to pull the window panel on the other side, Shanniang pushed away and said softly, "I'll come." ”

As soon as the window panel was opened, the pouring rain drenched her headlessly. Shan Niang didn't care about the rain, she raised her hand to cover her eyes and looked outside, only to see that outside the rain curtain, less than a foot from the wheel, there was a cliff - they were indeed on the mountain!

Shan Niang was worried about the heavy rain, so she hurriedly went out to look before and after, only to see that the shadows of the other two carriages had already disappeared.

"Hey!"

Without even thinking about it, she raised her head and shouted at the driver who was driving, but in exchange for a whip shadow.

"Get in!" The seemingly loyal coachman roared in a hoarse voice.

Before Shanniang could react, Li's mother was so frightened that she pulled her in and closed the window panel again, as if as long as she closed the car window, she could shut the panicked fact out of the window.

This time, even Xiaopang felt that something was wrong, so he hugged Shanniang's arm in a panic and whispered, "What's wrong?" Where are we going? ”

Shanniang shook her head at him, motioned for him to keep quiet, and then reached out to pull the rain-soaked hair away from her eyes, and then crossed over to Mother Li and tried to pull the car door.

The doors didn't move.

Shanniang thought about it, carefully pulled out the window panel, and just wanted to go out to see if the car door had been manipulated outside, the person driving was like having eyes behind him, and he threw a horsewhip again. Mother Li was so frightened that she immediately pulled Shanniang back, then closed the window panel forcefully, and shook her head at Shanniang with a pale face.

In two lifetimes, Shanniang has never experienced such a thing, and she can't help but feel nervous. She swallowed her saliva and whispered to her nurse, "Kidnapping tickets?" ”

Mother Li trembled, and then took Shanniang and Hou Jue into her arms, and she didn't know whether she was comforting the sister and brother, or comforting herself, and whispered: "It's okay, it's okay, Xu is the one who robs the road, wealth goes to people's happiness, wealth goes to people's happiness......"

Shanniang knows that what she is best at as a nurse is self-hypnosis, at this time, Li's mother believes that these people are just robbing the road, and Shanniang doesn't believe it either-if it is a robbery, where is it good to stop and rob? If she had to rob them up the mountain, Shanniang felt that they were more likely to have encountered kidnappers.

It's just, are these people waiting for them on the edge of the dock, or are they unlucky and happen to be bumped into by these people?!

Among the few people, I am afraid that Mother Li is the least courageous, she grabbed the arms of Shanniang's sister and brother and strangled both of them a little, but Shanniang and Hou Jue did not complain. The three men in a huddle rushed left and right in the bumpy carriage, and on several occasions they were tossed high and then fell again. But even if it hurts, no one dares to make a sound.

After a while, Hou Jue couldn't help but look up in Shanniang's arms and asked, "Where are they taking us?" ”

Shanniang shook her head, thought about it, and felt that she should still tell Hou Jue the truth, so she whispered: "We're afraid that we'll be kidnapped." ”

Li's mother's arm tightened a little again.

Shanniang said: "Let's not act rashly, if they are just asking for money, it shouldn't hurt our lives." And he said, "We must not provoke them." ”

Looking back now, thinking about the reckless voice she yelled at the coachman, Shanniang couldn't help but shudder.

Feeling Shanniang's trembling, Mother Li hugged their sister and brother even harder, and muttered comforting to her: "The girl is not afraid, the nurse is here, the nurse will definitely protect you, not afraid or afraid......"

Hou Jue, who was held in Shanniang's arms, also raised his head and said, "Sister is not afraid, I will protect you." ”

At this time, the window panels on both sides were tightly closed, and the light in the carriage was dim, Shan Niang could only barely see the faces of Hou Jue and Li's mother, seeing that although these two said this, their faces were pale, Shan Niang smiled, grabbed one with one hand, and couldn't help but jump suddenly in her heart.

"I have to stay the same." She whispered to herself.

I don't know how long it took, but the carriage suddenly jolted, and then the sound of the horses' hooves changed, as if it had entered a courtyard. With a "whoosh", the car finally stopped.

Xiao Fat shook, and the three of them suddenly hugged tighter.

Shanniang had been staring at the door of the carriage vigilantly, waiting for someone to open it, but she didn't want the coachman to leave them alone after jumping out of the carriage and saying hello to someone rudely.

After waiting for a few breaths, Hou Jue saw that there was no movement outside, so he reached out and wanted to pull the window panel to peek out, but Li's mother hurriedly hugged him and whispered: "Listen to the girl, don't act rashly, don't provoke them." ”

As he was talking, he heard a burst of laughter outside, and only one voice said, "Are we called black eating black?" ”

Hearing this voice, Li's mother was shocked and looked up at the closed car door.

didn't want the door to be opened, but the window on Hou Jue's side was opened with a "bang". Mother Li was startled, and quickly took Shanniang's head into her arms, not letting those people see Shanniang's face. Hou Jue was also so frightened that he threw himself at Shanniang, turning his head to look at those people in horror.

By this time it was already dark, and it was still raining outside, but the rain seemed to be lighter. Several people outside the window were all wearing robes and hats, and it was impossible to see their eyebrows clearly for a while. The man who spoke just now looked into the car and said with a smile: "The fat sheep sent to the door!" Didn't you say that the Hou family was so rich? This time, we'll have to make a good stroke. ”

Hou Jue and the others only paid attention to the movement on the other side of the window, but they didn't notice that the car door was also opened with a "bang". The honest-looking driver shouted into the car, "Come out! ”

Hou Jue shook and immediately hugged Shanniang. Shanniang couldn't help but shrink into the seat. Mother Li gritted her teeth, suddenly let go of Shanniang and Hou Jue, stretched out her arms to block the car door, and dared to shout at the people under the carriage: "What are you going to do?!" You are just asking for money, my old lady will definitely give a ransom, don't ......"

Before she could finish speaking, she was pulled out of the carriage by the coachman. Mother Li screamed, fell into the muddy water, and was tightly tied up and thrown aside in the blink of an eye. Shanniang and Hou Jue couldn't help but scream, she couldn't resist much, but she was still pushed down in the mud, and Xiaopang suffered a few punches and kicks because she struggled hard. The three masters and servants were tied up into a rice dumpling in a blink of an eye, and then dragged and thrown into a dark room.

In the panic, Shanniang only had time to see that they were in a dilapidated temple or Taoist temple.

Although it was early summer, as night fell, Shanniang, who was drenched all over, began to feel cold. Cold and hungry. She was thinking about it when she heard Hou Jue sobbing: "I, I'm hungry......"

Obviously, she was also hungry, but listening to Xiaopang say that, Shanniang still laughed, and the original fear was suddenly alleviated a lot. She smiled and bumped Hou Jue on the shoulder, and said, "You are really a little pig, you still have the heart to shout hungry at this time." ”

Xiaopang thought about it, and probably felt that it was a bit inappropriate to shout at this time, so he couldn't help but laugh and said, "But I'm really hungry." ”

"What do you want to eat?" Shanniang asked. So, in Xiaopang's description of the expectation of food, the fear gradually faded, and in addition to the more they talked, the more hungry they became, the sister and brother felt less cold.

talked to Xiaopang so ramblingly, that it took a long time for Shanniang to realize that the nurse had not spoken.

"Nurse?" Shanniang screamed.

"I'm here." Mother Li hurriedly responded, gritted her teeth and said, "Don't be afraid, girl, even if I die, I won't ask them to touch a single hair of the girl!" ”

Hou Jue leaned on Shanniang and asked, "Uncle Gui and my nurse, and Sister Wufu, what happened to them?" ”

Shanniang was silent, but did not squeak. They're already like this, and it's not going to be good for them to think about it.

The rain outside the window is sometimes heavy and sometimes small, and the gloomy sky makes it impossible to see what time it is at this time, the nurse persuaded Shanniang to close her eyes and rest for a while, Shanniang was about to close her eyes obediently, and suddenly heard someone outside the door untying the chains on the door. Several people suddenly sat up straight.

With a blinding light, the kidnappers came in with a lantern. One of them smiled and said, "Send a letter to your family, you can't do it without a token." Say it to yourself, do you want to send a finger back, or do you want to send an ear back? ”

The man said as he fiddled with a shiny dagger.

Looking at the cold light flashing on the dagger, Shanniang's eyes shrank suddenly, and Xiaopang simply buried his face behind her shoulders and didn't dare to look up.

"Don't!" Suddenly, Mother Li screamed, rushed over and stopped in front of Shanniang and Hou Jue, and shouted at those people: "You can't do this, don't you just need money?" Give you money is, don't hurt my girl and second master! Chop off your fingers and chop me, cut off your ears and cut off mine, don't hurt my girl. ”

The leader laughed when he heard this, and said, "I want your finger to have a fart." As he spoke, he ordered someone to drag Li's mother aside, and stretched out his hand to come over to catch Shanniang and Hou Jue.

Mother Li was anxious and struggled to shout, "Chen San! I know it's you, don't think I don't recognize you! I know your voice! As long as you dare to touch them, I will go to the government to sue you tomorrow! ”

The leader was startled, and suddenly looked back at Li's mother.

Mother Li struggled like crazy, shouting loudly: "Li Da, Li Da! Kill a thousand knives, you come out for me! I know you did it! No wonder you asked so carefully yesterday! You kill a thousand knives, if you dare to touch them, I won't let you go! ”

Mother Li's shouting not only shocked the kidnappers, but also Shanniang and Hou Jue. The kidnappers looked at each other for a while, and the leader hesitated for a moment, then waved his hand, retreated with the people, and locked the door again.

Li's mother collapsed on the ground, first with a small whimper, and then with a heart-rending cry.

Shanniang's hands and feet were tied, and it took a long time to finally move to Li's mother's side, rubbing Li's mother with her shoulder, and called, "Nanny." ”

Mother Li raised her head, suddenly knelt down at Shanniang, slammed her head on the ground, and said while knocking: "I hurt the girl, woo, I didn't expect that the one who killed a thousand knives had such a black heart." I said why he suddenly asked so carefully last night, and insisted on asking me where I was going with the girl, because it was this idea. Girl, I'm sorry for you......"

But it turned out that Chen San was Li's mother's husband Li Da, a gambler. Because Li's mother doesn't go back often, and every time she goes back and sees her husband gambling at home, she always avoids it without entering the house, so Li Da and Chen San both think that she doesn't know them, but they don't want Li's mother to have excellent ear power, although she doesn't know Chen San's appearance, she recognizes his voice.

It was also a pity that the floor of this cell was not paved with green bricks, and Shanniang hurriedly put her shoulder against Li's mother and persuaded her: "This is none of the nurse's business. Besides, now is not the time to talk about that. I'm only afraid that you've broken the identity of those people, and I'm afraid that they won't be able to keep us alive anymore. ”

Li's mother was shocked and couldn't cry anymore.

"We can't wait for someone to save us," Shan Niang said, looking around, "We have to find a way to save ourselves." ”
