48. Kidnapping
Bai Gu returned to Lao Liutou's house with an expressionless face and sat on the chair blankly.
Brother Peng sighed lightly, "Didn't you say last night that you should bring some quilts and cotton clothes back today?" How did you come back empty-handed? ”
Bai Gu didn't speak, and looked down at the tips of his shoes.
Brother Peng sat down beside Bai Gu, "Why don't you answer?" ”
Bai Gu still didn't speak, and he didn't raise his head.
Brother Peng was a little angry, and was about to open his mouth to reprimand Bai Gu, but he was hit in the head by a licorice block, and Lao Liu's somewhat annoyed voice followed, "If you are injured, run around, roll back to the bed and lie down!" ”
Brother Peng was instantly deflated.
He looked at Bai Gu, who was drooping his head and didn't speak, and then looked at the old Liu Tou who didn't see anyone in the back room and only heard his voice, and made a second choice, so he had to obediently walk back to the wooden bed and lie down.
Bai Gu ignores the small personnel, and Lao Liu Tou is angry.
When Brother Peng lay back on the bed, Lao Liu's voice came out again, "Xiaobai, don't be in a hurry with the quilt and cotton clothes, take your time." This winter is cold, and there is no way to change this, so let's deal with it actively. Quilt cotton clothes must be bought, sooner or later, now it's tiring to buy it in one go, it's up to you to arrange it yourself. ”
Bai Gu slowly raised his head, thoughtful.
After a long time, he struggled to spit out a syllable from his mouth, "Good." ”
Bai Gu got up slowly, walked out of Lao Liu Tou's house, paced in Lingding Alley, and returned to his home.

"Rubbish! I can't even beat a poor boy, what's the use of me raising you! A blue and white porcelain vase flew out of the door and shattered into the courtyard.
There were more than a dozen people kneeling down in the courtyard, and the momentum on their bodies was surging, and they were all cultivators!
It's just that they should be at ease, but at this moment, they all knelt down in the courtyard, just because their master was angry.
Seeing the porcelain vase worth 10,000 taels of gold being smashed, everyone present couldn't help but be a little frightened, but they were all silent, for fear of touching the master's moldy head.
A middle-aged man still standing in the corridor understands the situation, and he also has a certain identity, so he is not afraid of being scolded, "Young master, it is not the poor boy who they are besieging and killing this time, but his companion, a sturdy man who lives in the same alley." I heard that the cultivation is not low, so I killed Lao Yu and the others. ”
"Oh? Can there be such characters in such a dilapidated place? The people in the house suddenly became interested, "can fight two, and can also kill the two of them, it seems that the cultivation is indeed not low, and he is a ruthless character." ”
The middle-aged man heard the meaning of the person in the house, "The young master wants to recruit that man?" ”
"Well, it feels like it's not bad to be a thug." The people in the house seemed to stretch their waists, "In this way, send a few people to talk, it's best to agree, and if you don't agree, you will be killed directly." As for the poor boy, just find someone to deal with it, and this matter will end here. ”
"Yes." The middle-aged man retreated, thinking that he was going to arrange manpower.

Bai Gu went to visit Bai Xiaoxiao at the Changzhou Pharmacy as usual today, chatted with Xiaoyu and An Du on duty for a while, and then left.
I have to go to Nanyu for an appointment.
Bai Gu rubbed his head, getting along with an unfamiliar person, she was still a girl, and she had a big head when she thought about it.
I knew I wouldn't have mentioned that yesterday.
There are only two days a year, so even though it's noon the next day, the small mountain streets are still full of people.
Bai Gu found a small stall, bought a bowl of tofu brain, and squatted on the side of the road to slip away.
Well, sweet, that's good!
As soon as he finished eating tofu brain, Bai Gu saw Nanyu from a distance in the crowd.
Bai Gu has his own way of recognizing people, looking at the back, hairstyle, clothes, shoes, and even recognizing acquaintances with just a pair of eyes.
For example, Bai Gu could see an old beggar squatting under a pillar counting money from a distance of half a street.
Bai Gu recognized Nanyu with her ...... Not too tall and with a round face that loves to laugh.
Well, it's easy to recognize.
Bai Gu stood on tiptoe, jumped, and waved vigorously towards Nanyu.
No way, my height is a hard injury.
Without jumping a few times, Bai Gu was afraid that both sides would not be able to see each other......
Nanyu soon came to Bai Gu's side.
Nanyu was wearing a blue coat today, wearing a pink and white short jacket, and the whole person looked very lively.
Bai Gu rubbed his hands, "Nanyu, have you eaten?" Do you want to drink a bowl of tofu brain pads to cushion your stomach? ”
"No, I ate before I went out, and I'm still a little full." Nanyu replied with a smile.
Bai Gu smiled, "That's it, let's go, let's see what's interesting about the temple fair." ”
After yesterday, Bai Guke no longer believed anything the girl said about satiety.
Who knows if there will be more snacks to eat?
The temple fair was crowded, and the sounds of selling, bargaining, and conversation were intertwined, but there were more scoldings.
Someone on the road was stepped on and got angry, and when someone in front of the vendor was bargaining, he was anxious, and the lack of two catties in the business was discovered, and the storyteller told the wrong story......
Bai Gu saw that there were rock sugar gourds selling not far in front of him, and he remembered the string of rock sugar gourds that Nanyu invited him to eat yesterday.
The taste is quite good, you can go buy two skewers.
Just as he was about to turn around and talk to Nanyu, Bai Gu was hit by a big man and almost flew out. Fortunately, there were many people at the temple fair, so Bai Gu just bumped into others and stood firm.
Bai Gu hurriedly apologized to the uncle he bumped into.
Turning around, Bai Gu was stunned for a moment.
That big man is long gone, and Nanyu is gone!
Not good! It's the big man!
Bai Gu hurriedly chased in the direction where the big man was walking just now, and didn't care about the crowd at the temple fair and the politeness and humility on weekdays, Bai Gu lowered his head, like a small fish rampage through the crowd.
He had only one thought in his head right now.
Nanyu can't have an accident!
After all, she came out to play with herself, and she is still a man, so she should protect Nanyu's safety!
Soon Bai Gu rushed out of the small mountain street, and although there were no more people on the street than at the temple fair, there was still an endless stream.
Bai Gu hurriedly asked the people around him, and roughly described the body characteristics of Nanyu and Dahan, but he found nothing.
Bai Gu stood a little depressed, at a loss.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he immediately pulled out his legs and ran towards the north city gate.
If it is a kidnapping, then the big man will definitely not go to a crowded place, that is, he will not run to the city. Then, he has only one way to escape.
That is the North City Gate closest to the temple fair!
Out of Yunshui City, not only are there many fewer people, but the place is broader, so there will be more directions to run.
There is only a straight path outside the North City Gate, and there is no fork in the road, which leads straight to the other place. The road is also lined with rugged rocky terrain, so if you want to run, you can only go faster by taking the trail.
Bai Gu ran all the way down the trail, even if the snow was no longer above his ankles, it still didn't affect his speed.
Just kidding, when I was chased and killed by the ancient snake of Tuoshe, the snow didn't reach the calves and I ran fast, just a little snow, who do you look down on?
After running wildly for almost half an hour, Bai Gu finally saw a big man sitting leisurely on a stone under a tree not far away, closing his eyes and recuperating.
And on a stone next to it, lying Nanyu, who had passed out in a coma.
Bai Gu was overjoyed.
Got it!
