After getting off the train, Shen Changan took them to a nearby guest house, put down their luggage first, had a simple full meal, and bought some steamed buns and baked cakes as dry food on the way.

Before going out, they each changed into a set of local clothes, which was not easy to attract attention.

They came to Zaoni Village without stopping for a moment, with the last time, they were already very familiar with Zaoni Village, this time they did not make a big splash when they entered the village, but quietly touched in from the back mountain.

Jiang Li originally wanted to quietly go to Lai Erniang's house to settle down, but when she came to Lai Erniang's residence, she found that the house she lived in had been razed to the ground.

Now that the land had been planted with crops, in just a few months, it was completely different from the place she remembered to live.

Zhang Zeping's house was not far away, and Jiang Li stared at the dilapidated house, which was probably where his sister was staying now.

Jiang Li didn't want to wait for a moment, he just wanted to rush over directly to rescue the person.

Shen Changan saw her restlessness and put his arm around her shoulders to calm her down.

"Don't worry, I'll figure it out."

Shen Changan led them to hide in a tree not far away, so that they could not only see the situation in Zhang Zeping's house, but also hide their figures.

Shen Changan touched his bulging pants pocket, which contained several packs of cigarettes, as well as a lot of money and tickets.

He was waiting nearby, and soon saw Zhang Zeping wrapped tightly and sneakily coming out of the house.

Shen Changan walked around from the side, he quietly walked behind Zhang Zeping, patted him lightly on the shoulder, and greeted him warmly.

"Hey, bro! Long time no see! ”

Zhang Zeping, who was a thief, was taken aback, and when he turned around, he saw that it was Shen Changan, and then his complexion eased.

"Brother, it's you. It's been a long time since I've seen you, where have you been developing during this time? ”

"I went back to meet my relatives, but I was scolded for not finding the right person for them, and I couldn't get along in my hometown, so I ran to the northeast again."

Shen Changan was wearing a set of coarse cloth clothes, and he smiled helplessly, looking very honest.

When Shen Changan spoke, he took out a cigarette in front of the door from his pocket and warmly beckoned Zhang Zeping to smoke a few.

Zhang Zeping just took a cigarette in his mouth, and Shen Changan immediately took out a match and lit it for him.

The feeling of being flattered is really comfortable, Zhang Zeping kept swallowing clouds and spitting fog, and his nervous mood was relieved a lot.

Thinking of what the man in front of him had entrusted him to do, Zhang Zeping saw that there was no one around, and stood on tiptoe and whispered in Shen Changan's ear.

"I found a little girl to come back, it meets your requirements, but her temperament is a little stubborn, and her head seems to have a little problem, do you want to take a look?"

"Oh? Where is the little girl now? Take me to see it. ”

Shen Changan showed curiosity at the right time, and kept urging him to take it to see.

Shen Changan stuffed a pack of cigarettes into Zhang Zeping's hand as he spoke, Zhang Zeping is a good-looking person and likes this kind of flattery the most.

Shen Changan, he is so generous and so polite, where can he parry?

Besides, Shen Changan had mentioned this matter to him before, and he had also told him his thoughts.

Now Shen Changan suddenly came to the door, although he felt that something was wrong, but he did not suspect him.

In his opinion, Shen Changan is a trustworthy old acquaintance, and his mouth is also a gatekeeper, and he can tell him anything.

Zhang Zeping beckoned to Shen Changan and led him home.

The two walked to the door, and Zhang Zeping looked around vigilantly.

After making sure that there was no one, he pushed open the door of the house, and Shen Changan also took the opportunity to turn around and give Jiang Li a look.

Shen Changan followed Zhang Zeping into the house, which was a small narrow and dim bungalow, and the light in the room was not transparent.

As soon as the two entered the door, Zhang Zeping's mother-in-law walked out of the room with a stick and scolding.

"This dead girl is not obedient at all, the old lady has to break her leg today, see if she dares to run outside!"

As soon as the woman turned around and saw that her man had brought in a strange man, she immediately raised her vigilance and shouted and scolded at a sharp voice.

"His grandmother's, Zhang Zeping, who asked you to bring someone back?"

"What do you stupid know? This brother is not an outsider, we have known each other for a long time. The last cigarette I smoked was given to me by him. ”

Zhang Zeping proudly raised the cigarette in his hand as he spoke, the woman was still a little dissatisfied, but she didn't say anything for the sake of the cigarette's face.

Zhang Zeping pushed open the door of the utility room, and inside was a thin little girl with her hands and feet tied behind her back and a rag stuffed in her mouth.

The little girl's clothes were in tatters, and there were a few red marks on her exposed arms.

Her long hair was messy and hung down on her forehead.

Her small face was pitch black, and except for a pair of black eyes, she couldn't see her appearance at all.

With this appearance alone, even if Shen Changan had seen Jiang Yun's portrait thousands of times, he still couldn't recognize her personally.

No wonder the two people sent over to investigate didn't dare to confirm whether the little girl Zhang Zeping brought back was Jiang Yun?

The reason why I had to wait for Jiang Li to come over was because I didn't dare to startle the snake, for fear that something would happen to the wrong person, and Jiang Yun would never be able to be found again.

"This face is really dirty, I can't see her face clearly, why don't you wash her face with a basin of water?"

Shen Changan gave Zhang Zeping another bag before the door, and he immediately complied with a smile.

He fetched a basin of water and washed the little girl's face, and Shen Changan squatted down and brushed away the hair on her forehead.

This delicate little face that is extremely similar to Jiang Li, who is not Jiang Yun?

Even if he hadn't seen her portrait, with his understanding of Jiang Li, he would never admit it.

"You say this little girl is very stubborn and doesn't listen to you? You let me be alone with her for 10 minutes, and I can make her obedient. ”

Shen Changan said firmly, and gave Zhang Zeping a pack of cigarettes.

Zhang Zeping immediately agreed, his mother-in-law was still scolding, and he was also taken out of the utility room.

The moment the door was closed, Shen Changan immediately took out a small knife from his pocket, untied the ropes on Jiang Yun's hands and feet, and took off the rag in her mouth.

"Your sister Jiang Li is waiting for you outside!"

Jiang Yun's eyes widened in surprise, she struggled to get up from the ground, because she had been tied hand and foot for a long time, she fell to the ground as soon as she stood up.

Shen Changan saw that she had difficulty walking, so he grabbed her arm and came to the window.

Shen Changan pushed the window open hard, and the sunlight outside poured in, and Jiang Yun couldn't open his eyes.

The location of the window was right opposite the big tree where Jiang Li was hiding.

Jiang Li saw through the dense foliage that the thin and pale little face, which was the face of his sister Jiang Yun in his memory.

Jiang Li jumped down from the tree excitedly, and at this time, Jiang Yun, who had adapted to the sun, also opened his eyes again and saw her.

Her dry lips opened slightly, and she called out silently: "Sister......"
