Chapter Forty-Eight: Here Comes Two
The quiet time of torment passed very slowly, so slow that everyone lying in front of the crack in the door had a sore back, but I didn't know when the desert soldiers would come.
Gradually, everyone let their guard down.
Wang Dafeng whispered: "You won't come, will you?" ”
Fluttershy replied, "It's the calm before the storm." ”
"Well, I said Fluttershy, you used to be timid and didn't understand anything, but now what's going on, you're suddenly so smart and your words make sense, and Milk sometimes suddenly thinks you're not like the original Fluttershy."
"And who am I like? Isn't it good for me to be smarter? I used to be bullied when I was in the village, and I was beaten a lot by you, but now our family depends on each other, no matter how smart I am, I don't have those dishes that the Lu family appreciates during the day. ”
Ding Xiaodie knew that if she dodged her speech at this time, it would arouse Wang Dafeng's suspicion.
After all, she gets along with them the most, and if the suspicion deepens, it won't do any good, so it's better to defend and attack.
Hearing her turn over the old accounts and talk about the fact that she beat her, Wang Dafeng laughed embarrassedly: "Grandma admits that she was really short-tempered before, but she won't be in the future, our Fluttershy is good-looking and smart, and it's too late for Grandma to be happy!" ”
Zhang Xiu whispered again: "Mother, I also suddenly understood a lot after escaping the famine, Ding Gui and I can't be like before, otherwise we can't even grab a stutter when we go out, in order to survive, we must learn to be tough." ”
Wang Dafeng nodded again and again when she heard this, and now she finally understood that the personality and temper of the three members of the third son's family suddenly changed because they wanted to have a place on the way to escape the famine.
"This idea is right, if you go out and only shrink back, we will all starve to death, listen to my mother, you continue to behave like these days, be bold, you really encounter something that is difficult to deal with, like your sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, you come back and tell me, see if your mother scolds them to death." Wang Dafeng hurriedly encouraged.
"I heard it, mother."
Zhang Xiu and Ding Xiaodie were secretly relieved, fortunately they used this excuse to take the old woman into the ditch, otherwise she would be suspicious and troublesome.
That's when ......
"It's coming!"
Ding Xiaodie saw a torch light up at the other end of the city gate, followed by a shout of killing, swords and swords, and countless black shadows running around the street.
At the same time, all the people who remained at home took out something that could knock out the movement and struck it vigorously, and shouted out the window: "Catch them, catch them." ”
Some people knocked and shouted, and some people hurriedly lit oil lamps.
The streets, which had been silent, were suddenly bustling with hustle and bustle, with brilliant lights and shouts!
Lu Yan's plan was not wrong, in this way, it gave those desert soldiers a feeling of falling into a trap.
Ding Xiaodie knocked on the copper basin and looked out through the crack in the windowsill, only to see a few soldiers in desert costumes running over the street under the moonlight.
Each of them held a crescent-like knife in their hands, which glowed with a cold luster and looked terrifying.
The soldiers ran to the middle of the street and stopped, as if they had found something.
Immediately afterwards, the leader raised his hand and gestured, and they found a problem, these people just screamed but didn't dare to show their faces, it seems that there is no trap at all, just some ordinary people.
Tie immediately grunted a few words, then looked up and laughed.
The people laughed loudly with him, and they didn't leave after laughing, but spoke in a language that the big guys couldn't understand.
At this time, Wang Dafeng, who was so frightened that he wanted to hide under the bed, suddenly turned around and whispered: "They said that there are no official soldiers here at all, they are all ordinary people, and they can all be killed." ”
Ding Xiaodie was surprised: "How do you know?" ”
"I understand a little bit, I learned it when I was young." Wang Dafeng didn't have time to say anything else now, so he said casually.
At this time, there was still a hissing sound from the city gate tower, these desert soldiers were estimated to be here to fight in the front, if there were still a lot of chasing soldiers behind, then they would be completely finished.
What to do?
Ding Xiaodie hurriedly said, "Grandma, then do you still speak desert language, if you can, we can negotiate with them." ”
Wang Dafeng was so frightened that his hands trembled and swayed: "No, I didn't speak much when I was a child, but I can understand it, this is what your great-grandfather forced me to learn." ”
"Think about it."
Ding Xiaodie knew that it was not easy to delay, and she hurriedly encouraged the old woman: "One of them is wearing a different color of clothing than the others, it is very likely that he is a team leader, we tricked that person in and held him hostage, so that we can negotiate." ”
"But how to deceive? And there are a lot of them. ”
Zhang Xiu counted the seams of the wooden boards, a total of five.
"I can't manage so much, if we solve a few more, the burden on Dad's side will be lighter, and the danger will be reduced a little."
Hearing what her daughter said, Zhang Xiu immediately turned around and persuaded the old woman: "Mother, think about it quickly, quickly!" ”
Ding Xiaodie said: "Just tell them that we are the people of the desert, and we will be detained in this area because we do business with the people of Yangliu Town, and I hope they can take us back to the desert." ”
After speaking, Fluttershy patted Wang Dafeng on the shoulder encouragingly, "It's up to you, grandma, my mother and I will go downstairs to prepare to meet them, if these people come in, you can say that we have been detained in the local yamen since the beginning of the war, and my mother and I are dumb and can't speak." ”
At this moment, a frightened Wang Dafeng grabbed her hand with his backhand: "Fluttershy, they are talking again, these people say they are thirsty and hungry." ”
"That's right, you tell them to come in and have a glass of water and rest for a while."
After speaking, Ding Xiaodie immediately ran downstairs with her mother to the kitchen.
Zhang Xiu was running and thinking about how to control these five people, but they would definitely not be able to do it, so control the team leader. Thinking again, the knife, there is a kitchen knife in the house.
And Ding Xiaodie prayed silently in her heart: Space, space, now the personal safety of our family of three has reached the most urgent moment, if you can hear my voice, please give me the poison, otherwise, the three of us will be killed by the desert soldiers, and your space will disappear from now on. Please, please, if you don't think about me, think for yourself.
Syllable!
Ding Xiaodie, who had just walked down the stairs, was suddenly slapped with her.
It seemed that someone slapped her on the back of the head from behind, but it was clear that her mother was walking in front, she thought to herself, covered her head and turned around to look carefully, and sure enough, she found something wrapped in A4 paper on the ground.
At this glance, it can be seen that it is from the future, Ding Xiaodie quickly picked it up and pinched it, it felt like flour, it seemed that the poison was in hand.
"Thank you, space buddy, thank you!"
Fluttershy almost jumped for joy, completely forgetting that she had smashed her head in the space just now.
