Li Jiujiu opened his small mouth and snorted Hache. After the fight, her eyebrows and eyes were red, and her little head leaned against her father's neck. Li Shang smiled, kissed her on the forehead lovingly, and asked softly, "Sleepy?" Seeing that her eyelids were indeed closer, she held her waist and hips with one hand and hugged the villain obliquely.

When Xin Shansi finished practicing, she turned around and saw that her daughter was already asleep, and suddenly her eyebrows drooped, and she asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Li Shang smiled back: "She is still young and ignorant. ”

"When you make and dispense medicine, why is she so energetic?" Xin Shansi was sad: "I've thought about it, when she is four years old, I will take her to practice together, and the mother and mother will wear the same practice clothes." ”

"The doll is only a month old, and she is snoozing." Wind smiled comfortingly. The ruler sword passed over: "Little lady Yan, how did you walk with lotus steps?" "How can you lift a leg, and you have already run two feet?

Feng Xiao was right, Xin Shansi didn't care about the baby anymore, put the harpoon under the eaves, and turned around to face the ruler sword: "Shen Qi, hold the spirit, and gather the strength under the feet." "Raise your left hand and pinch the lotus finger at your side, hold your right hand to stabilize your breath, step on the lotus step, walk a few steps slowly, and gradually speed up, so fast that your figure is like the wind and your feet do not touch the ground.

The ruler sword qi sank, and the strength was also gathered on his feet, and he could still walk in broken steps at first, but seeing the figure passing by again and again, he simply spread his legs and threw up his arms and chased wildly. After chasing for five or six laps, the breath was chaotic.

After walking a few more laps and trying out the bottom of the ruler sword, Xin Shansi's figure stopped at the girl's little feet, and the breath was still gentle.

Li Shang glanced at the panting ruler sword, and then looked at Shansi, whose face was as usual, and couldn't help laughing, leaned close to her ear, and whispered: "Feng Xiao will do some three-legged cat work, but in recent years, I have been studying poisons." ”

"What about you?" If she wants to go through it together, she always has to understand it deeply.

"I'm better at healing poison than laughing at the wind, and my fists and feet are slightly inferior to the sword." Li Shang rubbed Shansi with his girl's little feet: "What else do you want to ask?" I must have no reservations. ”

There's nothing more to ask. Xin Shansi grabbed her little feet for a long time: "Don't wake her up." Push Li Shang back to the house, "When she falls asleep, put her in the basket or on the kang, don't always hold her." ”

The ruler sword that had slowed down and gestured for a while before sitting back on the stool and continuing to tie the straw man.

It was a cloudy day, and in the evening there was a muffled thunder and rumbling. The black clouds are heavy and ready to go. At the end of the day, a thunderbolt came, shaking half of Tangshan Village. Raindrops the size of beans fell, crackling on roofs, window lattices, grass and trees...

Qijian stood at the door of the main house, looking at the rain curtain, smelling the dirt, and thinking about the old blind man in the west of the village. In a moment, when the rain had subsided, he turned around and went to his room, changed into the same outfit as he had done last night, put on a white impermanence of the skin, and used a hemp rope to put on all the bloodline straw figures behind the stove and wrap them around him.

He didn't wait for the middle of the night tonight, and as soon as the rain stopped, he crept into the village. This will be just in time, and many families in the village will wash the upper bunks. A willow leaf was picked on the side of the road, and the song of the dead was played. The stiff body strides forward. The little straw man hanging on his body swayed as he walked.

"Ahh

This exclamation caused a lot of noise, and some of them had the audacity to open the door and take a look, and then slammed the door shut. There are also people who shouted through the door: "Don't come to my house, my family didn't sell my daughter, really... None of the three girls were sold. ”

Coming to the west of the village, the ruler sword pushed open the courtyard door of the old blind man. The old blind man's house was lit with a lamp, and Xue Erniang knelt at the door: "I'm guilty, I didn't take a good look at my daughter... Lord Onicha, I'm guilty..."

The purpose of the ruler sword is clear, the feet sticky with mud go to the medicine field, the five fingers of the left hand form claws, the force is inserted into the ground, and the root bone is grabbed and dragged up.

Xue Erniang watched him drag out a small corpse, not afraid at all, raised her head and scolded God: "You are blind... Eye? Why... Leave the wicked to live to old age... Why, why don't you chop them to death ... Open your eyes and see, what a baby this is..."

After digging the bones of seven baby girls, he left the old blind man's house and went to the East River.

After the rain, it was sunny, but Tangshan Village was dead. The infant corpse sat in the main hall of the landlord's house, and the ghost sent to wake up the landlord and the woman in the backyard, and the little straw man with a blood line one by one. Seven landlords were scared to death in one night, three went crazy, and two ended up like old blind men, with crooked eyes and slanted mouths.

"Retribution is coming. Sending his daughter to the west of the village is not done by people. Do you eat and drink spicy food? You eat and drink the flesh and blood of your daughters. Yang Erfang went to the cemetery in the west with paper money in the morning, and scolded all the way: "What can't be done by beasts, you are still embarrassed." Sell... Then sell, didn't you like to gather in groups to talk nonsense? My daughter-in-law and I don't sell our own blood and bones, and it becomes a joke in your eyes. Laugh... Why don't you come out and laugh this time? To tell you the truth, I've been waiting for this day for many years..."

There are many people who are in the same mood as Yang Erfang, and each family has pulled their daughters out to go around the village. The girls who didn't dare to raise their heads in the past have raised their chins today.

When he woke up and saw that Uncle Feng had killed the last two chickens in the house, he rubbed his eyes and said to Hatche, "Which one are you going to scare?" ”

"Don't scare anyone, leave the rest to Xue Erniang." Feng Xiao dragged a few dices of meat off the chicken neck: "Let's take advantage of this wind, clean up, and leave Tangshan Village tomorrow." ”

In the East House, Xin Shansi had already packed most of her and Jiujiu's clothes into the suitcase. Li Shang took an empty box and picked it up outside.

After brushing his teeth and washing his face, he went to the utility room to pick up a burlap bag and poured out the contents of it. There are a lot of gold, silver, jewelry, jade, and silver tickets. Seeing that Uncle Feng was not empty-handed, he squatted down by himself.

Xin Shansi came to the kitchen door with a long hold and looked at the ruler sword. Put a gold ticket and a gold ingot, and then pick out the silver, and divide the jewelry and jade.

After finishing the arrangement, Feng Xiaoji also killed it, and took an abacus: "Three hundred taels of gold tickets, two hundred and seventy taels of gold ingots, and four thousand seven hundred and sixty taels of silver tickets..." ”

"Plus the 23,400 taels of silver I took from the old blind man..." Li Shang contemplated carefully, several landlords in Tangshan Village had accidents, and the land price would definitely be at a low level in the next year. Will he buy some land, or will he build a charity hall in the East River?

Judging from the current situation, whether it is the old blind man or Tangshan Village, Yu Meng Yuling has no use value. This side will soon be forgotten.

"Let the old demon take some people, wait for the opportunity, and divide Tangshan Village and the nearby land. Plant food for two years first, and then look at it. What kind of work, take care of some families with daughters in the village. ”

"Yes." The wind laughs and bows.

Li Shang poked his fat girl's little arm: "When you buy land, don't fight with the local people, let's buy the rest." ”

"Rest assured, Lord, the old demon is used to doing these things and understands the Tao inside." There was no other command, Feng Xiao put away the gold and silver, and looked at the little lady Yan with a complicated expression: "Do you still have an empty straw box?" ”

Finally knowing why he could only be a little rich, Xin Shansi stuffed it to Li Shang for a long time: "I'll make up one for you." ”

"It doesn't have to be that much trouble." Li Shang hugged his daughter: "You don't need to take away the wealth you got in Tangshan Village, wrap it in a tung oil cloth and bury it." It's good that the old demon comes to dig it one day. ”

The heart is so big! Xin Shansi turned her head to look at the wind and smiled.

Feng Xiao clapped his hands: "Yes, why didn't I think of it?" ”

Well, she doesn't have to pull the grass anymore. Xin Shan's hands were itchy and decided to draw a few strands of thread. One rope, net income three cents. It's nothing to do today, she earns him ninety dollars first.

Early the next morning, after dinner, the family moved on the longboard car, and Fengxiao and Qijian drove a donkey and an old cow on the road respectively.

When asked by the villagers who were working in the fields, they replied with a bad smile: "Don't you want to leave?" The old lady is considered to have poured blood mold, and the sun is shining... It turned out to be such a prosperous yang. I have lived for dozens of years, and the person who stepped into the coffin with one foot in the coffin saw your village so ruthless for the first time. The old lady was scared and ran away. ”

Xue Erniang came back from the west of the village with a basket on her shoulder, and when she saw the stack of long carts leaving the village, she said, "It's good to go, it's okay to go..."

Chapter 40

After leaving Tangshan Village, Xin Shansi slept for a long time, put her in the nest basket, and took out the map.

Seeing this, Li Shang sat down: "Are you planning to go in the direction of Tanzhou, or go to Shengran Mountain to have a look nearby?" ”

"I'm hesitating." Xin Shansi moved her buttocks, leaned on his arms, rested her head on his shoulder, and pointed to the map: "I originally wanted to go to Shengran Mountain and Chongzhou nearby, and then go to Xuyun City, walk through Mo'an Mountain, then go to Xishu City, and finally go to Tanzhou." But isn't it June? The next day it's going to be hotter, and I wonder if it's better to go north. After all, with children. ”

Holding her waist, Li Shang likes such intimacy: "Then go to Tanzhou first, and then go to Xishu City, Mo'anshan... Go the other way you intended, the same. ”

"Okay." In fact, Xin Shansi has already made a decision in her heart, isn't this situation changing? When she made the long route, she thought that she would be on the road for the two of them. Now, her father has been following for a long time, so she has to ask a question, so that people can have a good bottom.

With a clear direction, Li Shang took a map of Luyang City drawn by Shan Si and looked at it: "At noon, we will definitely stop at Zhouhe Town, and in the evening..."

"Done." Xin Shansi had to admit that he was there, and she had a lot of peace of mind. Turning his head, his lips pressed against his chin.

Li Shang's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but hug her tightly, pressing his chin down and pressing it against her soft lips.

The donkey cart came to the fork in the road, there was no one around, Feng Xiao controlled the donkey to the direction of the Zhou River Estuary, then put down the whip and jumped off the seat, got on the ox cart at the fork, and walked another way with the ruler sword.

Imprinted on Shansi's lips, Li Shangsu let go of her, opened the front door of the carriage, and sat in the throne.

The breeze was breezy and refreshing, blowing away the heat on Xin Shansi's face. She didn't close the door of the carriage, but took a small quilt and covered her sleeping daughter in the basket. I opened the camera obsca and drew a thread to make a connection.

It rained the night before, it was sunny all day yesterday, and today I was walking on the road. Li Shang drove the donkey leisurely, his face was no longer covered with skin, his hair was tied to the top with a red hair band, he wore an ink-colored moire brocade robe, and his black waist was tightly wrapped around his lean waist. Although he smiled, he still looked cold.

Listening to the birds chirping on the side of the road, Xin Shansi put the cushion at the front door, turned around and sat down. Li Shang was not polite at all, and leaned directly on her back.

When they arrived at the mouth of the Zhou River, the little man in the basket whimpered. Xin Shansi hurriedly put down the work in her hand and leaned over: "Huh..." ”

Seeing the familiar mother, Jiujiu immediately turned from crying to laughter: "Ha..." happily scratched his hands and kicked his legs.

"Did you pee?" Li Shang glanced back, but he didn't smell anything.

"Pee." Xin Shansi changed Jiujiu's diaper and picked her up to breastfeed.

The little girl seemed to know that they were not at home, and she couldn't eat steadily, and her eyes were very busy. Half-full, when he heard the sound of talking outside the car, he let go of his mouth and listened carefully with a small brow, which made Xin Shansi laugh.

"Doctor Li, your daughter will definitely not be a peaceful lord in the future."

"Then when she's older, we'll be stricter." Li Shang thought that people could be restless, but they had to learn their skills first.

"Okay." Cinthence pressed her back to continue feeding.

Near the mouth of the Zhouhe River, there are more travelers on the road. Li Shang put away his leisure, returned to take a carriage door, drove the donkey to turn right at the mouth of the river, walked along the riverside road, and went to the long street of Zhouhe Town.

When the girl was full, Xin Shansi burped her, and then brought a small hooded cape over and tied it for her, and the hat covered her little head.

Today's big set, there are a lot of vendors on the long street of Zhouhe Town. Li Shang didn't drive deeper, pulled the donkey and stopped at the door of Yuehe Restaurant on the street.

The little second who greeted the guest at the restaurant walked up quickly and took the reins: "This master..." Before he finished speaking, he saw that the guest officer turned around and took over a little baby, and hurriedly said, "You wait, the little one is going to move a bench for the lady." ”

"No, you don't." Xin Shansi carried a rattan basket out of the carriage and locked the door before jumping out of the carriage.

It was the first time for Li Jiujiu to come to such a lively place, and her little fleshy paws clung to her father's clothes, pursing her lips and frowning. Li Shangshou covered her face and entered the restaurant.

It was the lunch market, and the lobby was full. A family of three went up to the second floor, and the wing room on the second floor was still free, so they picked a room facing the street.

Xin Shansi sat down and asked the guy who followed, "Which dishes do you have the best dishes in your store?" ”

"You two must try the beef soup. This dish is only served at the big market, and you can't eat it in ordinary times. The shop guy recommended: "You can also cut a plate of lo-mei, the marinade in our shop has been in it for decades." There are also river fish, all bought at the mouth of the river this morning, and they are fresh. Take it and braise it, and then stick a circle of cakes on the side of the pot. ”

Trash fish stickers... Xin Shansi's mouth was full of relish: "Okay, stir-fry two more vegetarian dishes." ”

"Well, you guys wait a minute." The shopkeeper poured tea for them and went down to report the food.

Li Shang pushed open the window and hugged his daughter's pestle window to watch the hustle and bustle on the street.

"She's seen the excitement, and what if she can't stay in the house anymore?" Xin Shansi was worried. When Li Jiujiu heard this, he turned his head to her mother, and he was so happy that his saliva came out.

Li Shang wiped the villain's mouth with a towel: "Then I will take her and her mother to visit the big market together." ”

Smiling, Xin Shansi stretched out her hand: "I'll hug you, you've been driving the donkey cart all morning, and you can drink saliva and rest for a while." ”

"You rest, I haven't hugged her all morning." Li Shang held the girl in his arms, took the tea on the table with his free hand, and sniffed it habitually: "Don't drink this tea, it's a little cold." ”

"I didn't drink it." As for breastfeeding, Xin Shansi didn't dare to be careless: "The guy from the restaurant will come to serve the food in a while, and ask him to bring a pot of boiling water." ”

The two of them had almost finished eating, and Qi Jian and Feng Xiao had lost their disguises, and one of them came with a donkey cart. Li Shang called the shopkeeper and added a few more dishes.

"Lord..." Feng Xiao didn't wait to sit down, then said, "My subordinates met a few Mongolian officers and soldiers at the set. ”

What's so strange about that? Admiral Li drank a little soup from the bowl: "Let the old demons be careful." ”

The old blind man couldn't move anymore, and even if Meng Yuling asked someone to find out the ghosts in Tangshan Village, he couldn't find anything. Only... Will she look it up? If she knew her identity, the old blind man was useless, and she wished that the old blind man would die sooner. The old blind man died, and she was one less threat.

And the matter of the baby girl in Tangshan Village, isn't Meng Yuling afraid of being exposed? She was afraid, so she would quickly evacuate her manpower, as if she had never touched Lu Yang. It's about Siyu... Xu will go back again. Lack of greed, long Wangshu.

It was really expected by Li Shang, at this moment Tan Siyu was eating at the food stall in Hekou, and after eating, she rushed to Tangshan Village, her steps were a little eager. In the past few months, she has traveled a few cities, and she has tasted bitterness.

The internal strength taken from Shannian Lao Ni was strong, but it was far less than she expected. Last month, I met Xun Mazi, a flower thief, in Fanxi City, and almost didn't escape. The mother sent a letter to her, and the old man Siqin was making fusion medicine for Princess Yuling.

She came back this time for this fusion medicine.

Tan Siyu's eyes were firm, and he had fled from Fan Xicheng for a few days, but the disgusting feeling that arose when he was touched by Xun Mazi's hand was still there. The next time she meets that beast, she must break his body into thousands of pieces and scatter his bones to ashes. Hurry under your feet and run.

When I arrived at Tangshan Village in the next morning, I didn't rush to the west of the village, so I took a detour to the back of the village first. I took the key and went out and opened the courtyard door.

In summer, the sycamores are so leafy that they almost cover the entire courtyard in the shade of the trees. Stepping over the overgrown weeds, he walked to the main house, pushed open the door, and was startled by a yellow skin who was grabbing a fat mouse and eating. She stood in the doorway, and the yellow skin dragged the rat and scurried around like a headless fly.

Less than a year after it was empty, the house was ruined. After all, it was a place where he had lived for more than ten years, and Tan Siyu inevitably felt a little desolate, sighed, turned his head and walked out of the courtyard. The door was also unlocked, and I followed the path outside the village to the west of the village. When she saw the stake wall, she retracted her expression and pulled the corners of her lips.

At the old blind man's house, Xue Erniang was cleaning up the medicine field. She didn't care whether the herbs were ripe or not, she plucked them all. There were bundles of paper money under the eaves, and she planned to pull out the herbs and burn them to the poor baby.
