The hands were a little rough, and at first glance they were used to rough work, and the tall and thin man looked along his hands and saw a young girl.

She was a little dark-skinned, carrying a basket on her back, her clothes were freshly made, and her shoes were dirty, and she looked like she had come from far away.

At a glance, she looks like an ordinary peasant girl, but her temperament and clean and upright facial features make it easy for people to feel good.

The tall and thin man looked at Gu Lan again, "Ginseng? ”

Before he had time to show an obscene smile on his face, Gu Lan sprung up behind him like mushrooms after a rain, and more than a dozen people stood up.

"Lan girl, do you want to buy these children?"

Some of the people in the village disagreed.

"Well, Uncle Ming, I think they are really pitiful, they are about the same age as my younger brothers and sisters......"

Gu Lan wanted to buy these children, it was not impulsive, she thought about it carefully, there was no shortage of food in the village, but there was a shortage of manpower, and she also lacked the strength of her loyalty.

"This ......," Uncle Ming looked at Aji.

Aggie nodded, "I think these children are also pitiful, so it is better to buy them." ”

Aji walked out from behind Uncle Ming, and when the tall and thin man saw him, his eyes lit up.

blurted out: "Which little lady actually disguised herself as a man to go to the market?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Aji's face suddenly darkened.

A hint of displeasure flashed on Uncle Ming's face.

Gu Lan stood in front of Aji, took his hand, and said generously: "This is my fiancé, not a little lady, you see if these children are sold, if they are sold, I will buy them!" ”

The tall and thin man laughed, thinking in his heart, although these people look like farmers, they are not like ordinary farmers, not only do they have no vegetables on their faces, but everyone is actually wearing winter clothes, and they are willing to buy such useless burdens in one go.

If you can find out which village they are from, you can probably make a great contribution.

The tall and thin man's eyes rolled and he smiled: "Sell, naturally you have to sell, you let me see what kind of ginseng it is." ”

Gu Lan took out the mountain ginseng that had been prepared a long time ago from his sleeve, slender and slender, about a palm long, five or six years old.

It was one of the dowry gifts that Aggie married her, and she wanted to exchange it for something else at the market, so she brought some.

The quality of the ginseng is good, and the most important thing is that these children are not valuable, and it is a waste to keep them in their hands.

The tall and thin man didn't hesitate before agreeing to the deal.

Gu Lan used a ginseng in this way to exchange for eight children, the youngest was four years old, the oldest was thirteen years old, the thirteen-year-old boy had broken hands and feet, and he also had a high fever, just afraid that he would die if he bumped.

At this time, the benefits of agreeing to marry Aji came, although the people in the village were a little dissatisfied with Gu Lan's decision, but for the sake of Aji's face, not only did they not say anything, but also helped Gu Lan load the children into the ox cart and cover the wind and snow with animal skins.

When the group entered the city, they first went to the infirmary to boil some ginseng and give these children a life extension, so that they would not die halfway through, and the gains outweighed the losses.

He bought one of them a hot noodle soup, and the children ate the hot noodles and drank the ginseng soup, wrapped in animal skins and did not know what to do.

Is this an encounter with a fairy? Someone actually saved them!

Gu Lan continued to visit the market non-stop, buying the things needed to get married, all of them were put in another carriage, and they spent a whole day finally purchasing the things that the whole village needed, at this time it was getting late, and they could only temporarily find an inn in the city to live temporarily.

Coupled with the children bought, there are nineteen people in total, and it is not realistic to have one room for one person, so in the end, Gu Lan took a few girls to sleep in one, and the others slept in one room.

After days of running around, everyone had already fallen asleep, and after a while, there was a shocking snoring sound in the room.

"Third child, are you sure that woman is in this room?"

"Don't worry, big brother, I'll inquire about everything."

"Okay, remember, our purpose this time is to catch her and ask about the situation!"

"Big brother, don't you take that man back too? He's really ...... Hey hey ......"

"Fuck you! No matter how good-looking he looks, he's a gentleman! What do you think! ”

Under the window, two men tiptoed and whispered.

After the tall and thin man finished teaching his younger brother, he took out his dagger and carefully opened the window, and the two jumped in front and back.

Then there were two muffled sounds, and a moment later, the candles in the room were lit, and two men, one fat and one thin, were tied to chairs with hemp rope, and two rags were stuffed in their mouths.

"Woooooo

The man struggled so hard that he almost fell over his chair.

"Be quiet!" Uncle Ming kicked someone with a chair and fell to the ground.

The thin and tall man saw that the fat man who was at least more than two hundred pounds was kicked away by him, and his pupils shrank.

How much strength should this man have!

Is he really an ordinary Orion?

Gu Lan picked up the blackened wick, the room was brighter, she clapped her hands and walked near the two, "Uncle Ming, be quiet, don't wake up Aji." ”

"Okay." Uncle Ming understood and stood behind Gu Lan.

During dinner tonight, Gu Lan deliberately stopped him and told him that someone might come to her tonight, hoping that he could do her a favor, just quietly.

Although Uncle Ming had doubts, he still agreed, he thought it was Gu Landuo, but he didn't expect that the two bandits who sold children during the day really dared to come!

Gu Lan walked to the tall and thin man, touched the dagger on his body, pulled it out, and carefully looked at the dangling blade, the knife work was not done, it looked very sharp.

Gu Lan slapped the two of them in the face with a dagger, and accidentally scratched a bloody mark.

The two of them were even more emotional, and they couldn't wait to eat Gu Lan raw, this woman is so good at pretending!

Gu Lan smiled slightly.

The cold dagger was around the tall and thin man's throat, and he whispered, "You two are uninvited, I just have a few questions I want to ask you, which of you wants to answer me?" ”

"Tonight, only two people here will be able to walk out of this door, as for who, it depends on which of you takes the initiative first."

She squinted, her face was very kind, but her movements were unusual.

In the next second, the tall and thin man's body shuddered, he trembled violently, and sallow sweat continued to ooze from his forehead.

Uncle Ming's eyes looked along half of his little finger, and he saw a string of blood spilled on the ground.

He didn't speak, just swallowed.

The first time he hurt a human being, if you want to ask Gu Lan how she feels, it is pain.

She thought she was going to feel unwell.

It's a pity that there isn't at all.

After the heavy snowfall, the food at home became scarce, and a group of bandits plundered their village, killing their father, and their mother was taken to the mountains, and the old people were left in the village to die, and the children were taken away.

At first, they wanted to raise these children into bandits, but there was not enough food in the mountains, so they thought of selling the children down the mountain.
