Chapter 49
Hearing this commotion, she immediately opened her eyes.
Shen Yuzhou also woke up, and soon heard the sound of blades intersecting outside, accompanied by a loud voice shouting in a hoarse voice-
"Who is in charge of this caravan? Don't you want Lao Tzu to get out? β
Shen Yuzhou pressed Xiao Yunjiao's shoulder to signal her not to move, and he picked up a gap in the curtain to look out. At a quick glance, he judged that the convoy had encountered mountain bandits.
Xiao Yunjiao saw that he made a "mountain bandit" mouth shape, and his heart sank, and then he heard Fourth Brother Guo's voice coming-
"The villain is the steward of this caravan, the king spares his life, all the goods on this convoy are offered, and the king's subordinates are merciful."
Xiao Yunjiao leaned around Shen Yuzhou, looked out through the gap in the curtain, and saw a sturdy man with a stubly beard sitting on a horse with a knife, looking down at Fourth Brother Guo.
"Count you kid a little blind, little ones, give me a car-by-car search! Take away all the valuable things, and take away the cars and horses! β
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yunjiao quickly sensed that he and Shen Yuzhou were in a bad situation, and asked with his mouth when he searched the first few cars under the mountain bandits, "What should I do?" β
Shen Yuzhou leaned into her ear and said, "Don't speak, leave it to me." β
With just two sentences, the bandits' men lifted the curtain of their cars and shouted to the big man on the horse: "Boss! There are two more people here! β
As he spoke, he came over and pulled them.
Shen Yuzhou took Xiao Yunjiao in his arms and got out of the car obediently.
The leader of the mountain bandits immediately looked at the two of them and asked Fourth Brother Guo, "Who are these two people?" β
Fourth Brother Guo looked worried, but still told the truth, "This is a couple rescued by us on the road, and they are doing business in Jiazhou." β
Shen Yuzhou looked at the leader of the mountain bandits, and let go of his awe-inspiring expression, making himself look more like an ordinary person, "The king, I am just a merchant below, and there is some small property at home, please don't hurt our husband and wife, I am willing to write a letter in the next place, and the family will send a ransom." β
The leader of the bandits dismounted and walked up to the two of them, looked at them for a long time, as if judging what they were worth, and then raised his knife and cut off the head of one of the caravan guards!
"Ah......h Xiao Yunjiao let out a scream when he saw the blood light, and then he was tightly protected by Shen Yuzhou in his arms.
"The king spares his life, our family has a rich family, and my uncle is still an official in Beijing, so he will definitely not give a ransom!" Shen Yuzhou's face was very frightened, but his heartbeat was not chaotic at all.
The mountain bandit leader grinned and said, "You young master who has no power to restrain the chicken can't make any tricks, you see, if you are disobedient, this person will be your fate!" β
After that, he called his men and ordered them to tie up the caravan's escort and entourage, including Xiao Yunjiao and the others, "Give Lao Tzu more care, especially these two, this is our money bag!" β
Xiao Yunjiao's hands were covered behind his back, and he and Shen Yuzhou were thrown back to the carriage they were riding, and the mountain bandits even blindfolded them with strips of cloth.
There was only darkness left in front of him, and Xiao Yunjiao couldn't help but move in the direction of Shen Yuzhou.
Suddenly I felt something strange on the side of my neck, and the next second, I heard Shen Yuzhou's small voice ringing in my ears-
"I made a mark on the side of the road just now, Chen Congshan and they will find it."
His voice was inaudible, and Xiao Yunjiao only felt a warm wind blowing in his ears, bringing wisps of itching.
But she understood what he was saying and responded with an "um" sound.
The carriage didn't know how long it had been out of sight, Xiao Yunjiao only remembered stopping halfway to pay attention once, someone came to feed them some water at random, and then it was endless.
When she felt hungry, the curtain was lifted again.
"You two listen, don't talk for a while, don't think about running away, or you'll end up like those dead people, do you hear?"
It's a mountain bandit's subordinate.
Xiao Yunjiao nodded, huddled beside Shen Yuzhou, only to hear the sound of clothes rubbing closely, and then the strip of cloth on his eyes was torn off.
The sudden light made her eyes close, and a large hand covered hers.
"Don't open your eyes yet."
Shen Yuzhou guided her to open her eyes little by little, and then they saw the mountain bandit leader sitting in the car staring at the two.
He changed his outfit, his hair was tied up with a cloth towel, and he looked like a businessman like Fourth Brother Guo.
"The relationship between the two is very good." The leader of the mountain bandits looked at it, and his eyes stayed on Xiao Yunjiao, "You lady is born well, no wonder you are so protective." β
As soon as these words came out, the killing intent on Shen Yuzhou's body immediately burst out, and even Xiao Yunjiao couldn't control his angry eyes.
"Okay, okay," the bandit leader was not angry, "You people from high families are rich, and you have to look for death and life at every turn to engage in those tricks that will end up together, we don't rob money, one less is a lot of money, this business is not cost-effective." β
The two of them relaxed for two points, and then heard the mountain bandit leader say, "When you enter the village later, you are the victims who were rescued by us, and you will live in the village for a while and wait for your family to pick you up, remember?" β
Xiao Yunjiao didn't know why, and looked at Shen Yuzhou, but nodded.
The leader of the mountain bandits gave an explanation, and ordered his subordinates to get on the car and watch them not to look around, and then got out of the car.
The mountain bandits' subordinates have also changed their forms now, and Xiao Yunjiao is very puzzled. But she didn't think long before she felt the carriage shake violently, and at the same time the sky outside the carriage seemed to darken.
The shaking lasted for about a quarter of an hour, and as the shaking stabilized, she felt the light outside.
Then came the voices of a group of childrenβ
"Daddy's back!!"
"I saw my dad!"
"Tell my mother!! Daddy is back! β
The mountain bandits who were also in the car motioned for them to get out of the car, and Xiao Yunjiao was helped out of the car by Shen Yuzhou.
Unexpectedly, the land here is flat, the houses are like houses, and it is a small mountain village with beautiful scenery.
The leader of the mountain bandits, who was killing people outside without blinking, seemed to be a different person at this moment, picked up the little boy who ran towards him, and whispered lovingly.
This turned out to be the home of the mountain bandits!
As soon as this absurd and convincing thought came up, Xiao Yunjiao saw a group of women coming over? They were still dressed as they had been working, and it was obvious that they had just been working in the fields.
"The child's father is back, and this time he went out for two months, and look at you've lost weight."
The woman's eyes were full of men from her own family, and they talked together for a while before they noticed Xiao Yunjiao and Xiao Yunjiao, who obviously did not belong to their village.
"Dad, who are these two ......?" The daughter-in-law of the mountain bandit leader asked.
The bandit leader smiled heartily, and said without hindrance, "They and their husband came out to play, unfortunately they were murdered by evil servants, and on the way out, they happened to meet our team coming back, I think they are pitiful, so they rescued people, and in a few days let someone bring a letter to their home to pick them up." β
This remark is true or false, natural can no longer be natural, if it weren't for Xiao Yunjiao's own experience of these things, even she would have believed it.
But she still had to follow this person and say thank you when the daughter-in-law of the mountain bandit leader greeted them.
This year, it is incredible that the kidnapped meat ticket still has to say thank you to the mountain bandits.
"My sister has suffered all the way, right? I am Chunxia, my man's name is Wu Da, if you don't dislike it, call me sister-in-law Wu, you can live in my house with peace of mind, and go back when your family comes to pick you up. Chunxia took Xiao Yunjiao's hand and said as she walked.
Xiao Yunjiao was half-pulled and half-dragged by her and walked forward, and said softly, "Thank you, Sister-in-law Wu." β
Chunxia touched her hand, "It's not outside, no one has a problem when you go out, I like it when I see you, if my daughter can be born in the future and look as good as you, how good it would be!" β
I didn't go far along the ridge to reach the Wu family, and when I pushed the door, I saw a man and a woman sitting in the yard and pulling something with branches.
"Big treasure and little treasure, come and meet the guests." Chunxia called the two children to her.
The two children were five or six years old, staring at them with big eyes.
Xiao Yunjiao smiled at them, and the little girl whispered
"Sister, are you the fairy next to the Queen Mother?"
The little boy disagreed with her, "How can a fairy wear such dirty clothes, my clothes are cleaner than hers." β
The little girl said, "Did the fairy fall down when she went down to earth?" In the story told by my mother, the fairy is the most beautiful. β
The words of the two children made Chunxia laugh, "Sister, don't mind, the children are open-mouthed, come with me, I will find you two clean clothes, you really can't wear these clothes." β
After speaking, he pulled her to the house, and did not forget to tell Wu Da to go to the stove to boil the water.
Xiao Yunjiao was half stunned and changed into clothes, although it was a coarse linen coat, it was clean and tidy. After changing her clothes, she opened the door and walked out, changed Shen Yuzhou into the house to change her clothes, and she herself was staring at the two little dolls in the yard.
After a moment of silence, she asked, "What's your name?" How old are you? β
The little girl seemed to like her very much, and rubbed next to her, "My name is Wu Chou, my brother's name is Wu Chou, I am five years old, and he is six years old." β
Worry-free......
I don't want to be a name given by someone who has no ink.
Thinking so, Xiao Yunjiao saw the traces drawn by the two children on the ground with tree branchesβit was the neat "Wu" character.
"Are you learning to write?" Xiao Yunjiao was curious.
Wu Wei nodded, "I can already write Wu, my father taught me before going out last time, but I still can't write worry......"
Xiao Yunjiao picked up the branches on the ground, wrote the names of the two children on the ground in a dignified manner, and pointed to them and said-
"Wu Chou, Wu Chou."
The little girl was shocked by her hand, "You are so amazing!" I can write, but my mother can't write! β
Even Wu Chou, who has never been silent, showed admiration and affirmed: "What you write is better than what my father wrote." β
Seeing their reverence, Xiao Yunjiao didn't want to distract them, and held the hands of the two of them and taught them to write their names one by one. As soon as she looked up, she saw Wu Da standing not far away staring at her with a warning face, as if to tell her to be honest.
"Oops, girl! You can write! β
Chunxia came out of the stove and saw this scene, and pulled her with joy, "You are all capable people, unlike our rough people in the countryside, there are few people in the village who can read." Sister-in-law has something to ask you for......"
"Chunxia." Wu Da interrupted his daughter-in-law's words, "The guests haven't eaten yet, and you don't know how to hurry up and cook something." β
Chunxia glared at him, but she didn't finish her words, she only smiled at Xiao Yunjiao, and went back to the stove to work.
Wu Da also stopped talking, picked up the axe in the corner of the wall and began to chop wood, the sound of the axe and the wood colliding was very noisy, Xiao Yunjiao no longer continued to take the two children to write, and silently returned to the room that Chunxia cleaned up for them.
