Chapter Seventy-Three: The Chivalrous Monster (5)
Shopkeeper Lu immediately knew that something was wrong, although he didn't bring anyone from the government this time, but even if someone from the government came, no one would have thought that the kidnappers would pick up the goods from the bottom of the river.
This fire rat skin can avoid water and fire, and is naturally not afraid of being soaked in river water. The kidnapper must have been a very cunning man to think of this.
Although throwing the fire rat skin into the river is like handing over his life to them, but for this kind of opponent, the honest shopkeeper Lu can only obediently obey his orders.
However, after he threw the fire rat skin into the Lanyang River and went home to wait for the news, he waited for three days and three nights, but he did not see his wife and daughter return.
At this time, Shopkeeper Lu knew that his wife and daughter were only afraid that they would be more than lucky.
As soon as the three days passed, the government came to urge the shopkeeper Lu to send the fire rat over, and at this time, where could the shopkeeper Lu get the deadly fire rat.
So after sending the official to go back, the shopkeeper Lu took out a hemp rope and wanted to break it.
But he had just stuffed his neck into the finished rope loop, but he didn't expect a strange wind to blow his door open, and the yellow sand blowing in from the outside made him scarcely open his eyes.
And when the yellow sand finally dispersed, and he saw the person in front of him clearly, he could hardly believe his eyes.
It turned out that his wife and daughter appeared in front of him at this time, and what was placed at their feet was the fire rat that he threw into the Lanyang River that day.
This made Shopkeeper Lu overjoyed!
Later, Shopkeeper Lu asked his wife and daughter carefully, and only then did he know everything that had happened in the past few days.
It turned out that his wife and daughter had indeed been kidnapped, but just when the kidnappers got the fire rat skin and wanted to release them, somehow, his daughter actually saw the true face of the kidnapper, so the kidnapper stopped killing and wanted to tear up the ticket.
However, when his wife and daughter were about to die, a knight in yellow saved them.
Originally, he was about to send them back, but the leader of the kidnappers escaped with the fire rats, so he had to place them in a cave in Huangsong Mountain first, and go after them himself, which was delayed for a few days.
After that, the knight chased the fire rats and was about to leave after sending them to the door of the shopkeeper Lu's house, but suddenly regretted and rushed in, which saved the life of the shopkeeper Lu and prevented him from committing suicide.
Hearing the words of his wife and daughter, and thinking of the yellow sand just now, Shopkeeper Lu naturally understood who it was, and his heart was naturally very grateful.
So, when the next month came, not only did he prepare good wine and food, but later heard that the knight even tore his own clothes because of saving people, and asked his daughter to make a new dress and put it at the door to express his gratitude.
It's just that Shopkeeper Lu didn't expect that his daughter not only made a new dress for his benefactor, but also secretly hid behind the door and waited, but he wanted to thank his benefactor in person.
So, when the mountain leopard came to deliver something, his daughter Yaoniang opened the courtyard door, and sure enough, she saw that he was the benefactor who saved her.
Seeing her open the door, the person was stunned, but Yao Niang's enthusiasm made it impossible to refuse. In the end, he entered the courtyard gate at the invitation of Yao Niang, and the two talked in the courtyard for a long time before he left before dawn.
Since then, every month when he comes, he will talk to Yao Niang, the shopkeeper of Lu, for a while before leaving, and later, it slowly became a half-moon and then ten days...... Five-day ......
In the end, it became that every **** would come to Lu's shopkeeper's house once, and every time I came, I was invited into my room by Yao Niang, and I stayed overnight......
