A fox and a fox sneak and sneak swim past.

The ripples on the surface of the river were shattered, reflecting the rows of torches on the dark deck, like floating gold and broken gold.

The officers and men patrolling the edge of the deck dragged their footsteps, and the deck was clanging.

I saw that they were sleepy-eyed, their steps were half-up, and the torches in their hands looked like they couldn't be dropped.

The general was scolding: "Don't hit the spirit? It's almost time to Yongcheng, and I'm still sleeping, one by one. ”

The general grabbed another handful of reeds and slapped them on the faces of the officers and soldiers one by one.

The strange thing is that the officers and men seem to be tickled and are still fearless. was angrily reprimanded, and just wiped his face and continued to desecrate his duties.

This kind of laziness and slackness is almost impossible in Great Qin, where the law is strict.

Great Qin's harshness is almost cruel harshness, even if it is forging a shoddy arrow, the blacksmith master will have to risk being killed.

But under the control here, another kind of rule is gradually derived.

The officers and soldiers had long swords pinned to their waists, and they continued to sway with their feet.

So much so that when Bai Tao dragged the chubby Zheng Guo to the shore with his teeth, they couldn't see as if they were blind when they opened their eyes, and continued to swim in the dark shadows.

"I thought you just had a lot of hair, but I didn't expect you to be really fat."

Bai Tao touched the official ship and stared at the group of officers and soldiers for a while, seeing that the guard was nothing more than that, she couldn't help but complain to Zheng Guo, who was panting, "My teeth haven't broken yet, why are you still panting first." ”

Zheng Guo said weakly, "No way, I'm only suitable for walking in the water, not suitable for walking, not to mention that I have to climb on it, and my paws are slippery." ”

Bai Tao spit out a mouthful of hair, and looked at the officers and soldiers walking in front of him with dripping eyes, "Are they really invisible?" ”

"It's so late, most people have to sleep, and we have spirits." Zheng Guo flicked his big tail, "I seem to hear that it's noisy inside." ”

"It's a bit noisy, there should be a lot of people fighting."

The fox's ears were pointy, and the white peach crept ahead, "Follow me." ”

Zheng Guo: "Okay! ”

Jumping on the wooden box, and jumping on the basket again, Zheng Guo followed, and suddenly bumped into the white peach.

He hurriedly covered his nose, trying to express his innocence.

Bai Tao glared back at him, and Zheng Guo curled his tail aggrieved.

“………”

There's no way, it's my little brother.

Bai Tao sighed, stretched out her paws, pulled Zheng Guo and herself next to her, and looked inside under the cover of the basket.

Inside is really as Bai Tao said, as lively as cooking oil.

There are many officers and soldiers who are drunkenly stepping on the table to make a drinking order, "It must be the end, the two are good, the three are rich, and the four leaders are the best!" ”

"Four"

"Come on, come on, you lose, drink, drink!" In the collision of wine bowls, the generals' faces were red, "Hiccup, the king of heaven here can't control it, happy living immortals!" ”

"Hahaha!"

The generals slapped the table and kicked the stool and laughed.

There is a humane, "Hey, although this day is good, no one cares, but the matter of Chang Xin Hou has not been taught to us well, that is also going to lose his head, let's just say that in the past two years, the boys and girls who have been asked by Chang Xin Hou must also be born on a lunar day, and they have to find ten a month." ”

"Alas, if you want to say anything else, you want some moons and clouds."

"In these two years, how much have you sent?"

"Now whether it's kidnapping or trading, it's almost empty, and if it's far away, it's Rong Di's territory, and this time I can barely find ten, I don't know if I can make a smooth deal next time."

"What's the panic?"

Another person showed his yellow teeth and burped, "There is wine, meat, and rich rewards, even if you die now, Lao Tzu is happy to ahhahaha!" ”

"Hahaha! That's right, come on, come on, do it! ”

Bai Tao shook his tail after listening to it, "They were also ordered by Chang Yu to be looking for boys and girls, and they caught ten a month, and they have been caught for two years?" How many children are going to do this. ”

"I think those boys and girls are so pitiful."

Zheng Guo wrinkled his nose, "I'm afraid it's too bad to be lucky." ”

Although it is not the same kind, Bai Tao also has some empathy for those children.

She pursed her lips and said: "Don't jump to conclusions so early, maybe it's not necessarily, seeing is believing, hearing is false, and what you don't see is possible. Just guessing. ”

"For those children, pray."

Zheng Guo's two paws were put together, and seeing that Bai Tao was indifferent, he pulled her paws again and closed his eyes, "We pray that they will have a good birth in the next life and stop being human again." ”

White Peach: "."

White Peach: "? ”

The officers and soldiers in front came over, and Bai Tao dragged Zheng Guo, who was praying under the moon, into the basket and whispered: "What should be inappropriate, inappropriate, should they be the pigs, dogs, cows and sheep on the table for you to eat?" ”

Zheng Guo's eyes were watery: "Hey, I don't eat meat, I thought, as long as everyone doesn't eat meat, changes to vegetarianism, and is kind, how good it would be." Maybe the Seven Kingdoms won't fight. ”

Looking at the compassionate Zheng Guo, Bai Tao slapped his forehead with his paws: "The Seven Kingdoms didn't fight because of eating meat, let's go and see the ten newly tied children first, I seem to hear their breathing, just below this deck." ”

Zheng Guo was diverted: "Good! ”

The footsteps departed.

Zheng Guo twisted his tail to push the blocked basket back into place, and with an arc, he followed the fox jumping on the deck, only to see her push open a piece of armor with her claws and rush in with a whoosh.

Zheng Guoguo looked left and right on his hind legs for a while, and jumped in with a bang.

The white peach falls to the ground as light as a feather.

“.” Silently.

Zheng Guo landed on the ground and spread out on all fours.

"Knock-knock-" beat the gong and drum.

White Peach: "??? ”

The voice was particularly harsh in the dark basement, and several children who were already sleeping lightly were awakened and cried in fright, "Woo woo woo, mother. Woo woo. Daddy"

"I'm going home. Woo woo."

I'm scared woo woo woo, where are you, mother."

Bai Tao planned to cover her mouth when the first child cried, but she didn't expect the children to be woken up.

She slapped her paw directly on Zheng Guo's head, and the meaning was self-evident: All the good things you did!

Zheng Guo curled his tail and was silently aggrieved.

The dim oil lamp was lit, and the glowing orange light made the dirty, damp basement look a little ghostly.

There was a lot of filth on the ground, and a few children of eight or nine years old were huddled together, with chains tied to their ankles.

Their cheeks were sunken, their skin was covered with bones, and their eyes were surprisingly large, but now their faces were stained with tears, and fear filled the place.

"Who's in?"

At the head was a tall boy, his figure was illuminated by the oil lamp in his hand as if he was provoking a ghost, and his hungry face was blue and yellow, but there was a very different calmness.

Bai Tao and Zheng Guo had already slipped behind the pillar.

Hearing this, Bai Tao pulled the pillar to look at the boy who was talking, but he didn't expect his ears to be caught by a small hand behind him.

A dirty girl grabbed her ears and laughed out of her baby teeth, "Brother. Brother Fox Fox. ”

Bai Tao's hair was furious, and she hurriedly broke her ear out of her hand, and slapped Zheng Guo with one paw and ran away again.

"Where's the fox?"

The sound of footsteps approached with the sound of chains, and the boy with the oil lamp leaned over and looked around.

Seeing only the girl sucking the salt on her fingers and blinking, he sighed, "You're too hungry." ”

"Fox. Fox. ”

The girl patted her shriveled stomach and grinned, "Little fox ......"

The boy took out a palm-sized dry cake from the bag on his waist, "The government here has lost all its conscience, and even the food is deducted, you can eat it." ”

The smell of food attracted the bunch of children.

The eyes of the hungry children glowed green, and the instinct for survival inspired them to plunder.

They involuntarily stood up and rushed over like mad at the same moment that the boy handed the cake to the girl.

Hold down the helpless girl, snatch the dry cake in her hand, and gobble it down.

"Gollum—"

After swallowing, he licked his fingers frantically, and some people knelt to lick the crumbs of cake that fell on the ground.

"Woo woo woo. Dad, Mom, where are you? I'm afraid, I'm good... Woooooooooooo ”

The girl was robbed of the bread, and she trembled with fright, and cried at the top of her throat.

The boy who had finished giving the bread clasped his hands on his chest and looked away, as if he didn't care whose belly the dry cake was sent to, and that it was his mercy to give it.

He's tall here, and he's like the boss here.

After the children had plundered, a few of them still looked at the cloth bag around his waist reluctantly, and went over to press his stomach with his knees, perhaps in this way, they could relieve the devastating and torturous hunger.

There are also a few vulnerable girls here, who don't dare to bark at all, only bite their clothes and cry like quails, like kittens that are easy to die.

"Squeak-"

The deck above was lifted again, and two officers and soldiers came down with oil lamps, "Noisy, crying, crying, crying, about to enter Yongcheng, what are you doing here?" ”

"Your parents will exchange you for a few baskets of rice, a few golden cakes, what you love and I want, you don't want to shout at your father and mother, and you don't think about it, and when you enter Yongcheng, you will be full of food and drink, alas, Yongcheng is your Huangquan Road."

After falling to the ground, the two officers and soldiers slapped the tip of their noses with their hands.

One of them, a tall man, dangled in front of the group of children with an oil lamp, hoping to see if he was dead.

When he saw Bai Tao and Zheng Guo, who had become children, his face was a little strange, and he shook it back again, "No, why does this seem to have changed more?" ”

Another short man said, "How can it be too much?" Could it be that you were born out of thin air on the ship? I'm afraid you've been floating on the water for a long time, and your eyes are not good. ”

The tall man said, "No, no, you count, one, two, three." ”

Looking at the children here, he folded his dark fingers and counted them as he looked at him, "One, two, three, one, two, three, one." ”

He continued, "I could have counted them on my fingers, but you see there are two more toes." ”

The tall man is still moving his feet, and the short man is hairy by him, "You care about him, more is more, no less is good, maybe you counted the wrong at the beginning, okay, don't count, go up after reading." ”

He was in a bit of a hurry to go up, and the tall man climbed up after him.

A sentence came from the deck, "Impossible, I've been counting for two years, could it be that this water surface is yin, and I have recruited two more yin spirits." ”

"Bang!" The deck is pressed tightly.

There was an instant silence below, except for the sound of the water rushing.

The boy at the head pressed his eyelids, he took out the dry food from his waist, nibbled on it, chewed it thirty times, and then swallowed: "Eleven, twelve." ”

The two raccoons mixed in with the children's pile blinked and continued to pretend to be ignorant.

Zheng Guo poked Bai Tao with his finger, and said in a suppressed voice: "What should we do next?" ”

Bai Tao said softly: "Follow first, enter Yongcheng." ”
