Volume 1 The Wind Rises Chapter 24 Success
But after several waves of people, they didn't see Steward Zhou and his party, and they waited for nearly an hour, and finally heard the sound of cars and horses again. The two hid, and after a while, a carriage came, which was Steward Zhou's party. Wu Lun looked at the road and the way to go, and saw that there was no one, so he just started.
He patted Liu Jizu on the shoulder and whispered, "Follow me, don't make a sound." ”
After saying that, the cat shrank his head and ran out, and Liu Jizu also ran out as he looked, and stopped on the road with Wu Lun one after the other.
Steward Zhou and the coachman sat in front of the car, and they were very shocked when they saw the two masked people. Because this road is an official road, and it is close to the post station, there is never any roadblock robbery. The two of them had never encountered such a situation, and they reined in their horses, not knowing what to do, when the coachman asked in a trembling voice, "Are you...... What do you want to do?".
Wu Lun didn't care about their reactions, and walked straight over.
Zhao Tian and Zhao Mingzhu in the car knew that it was Wu Lun and them, so they opened the curtain and pretended to ask Steward Zhou why the car stopped. As a result, when he looked at Wu Lun, who was holding a knife outside, he found that his body shape, clothing and skin color were wrong, and he thought that he had really encountered a robber, and he screamed in fright.
Wu Lun stuck the knife in his waist, went over to grab the coachman, and pulled the coachman out of the car.
The driver tried to resist, but was knocked unconscious in front of him.
Steward Zhou was sitting on the other side of the car, he didn't see the driver knocked unconscious, he wanted to slip out of the car and escape.
But as soon as he slipped out of the car, he was grabbed by Liu Jizu, and Liu Jizu came behind him in a flash and strangled his neck. After a while, Steward Zhou collapsed to the ground.
Wu Lun was worried that Liu Jizu's attack was not serious, so he hurriedly said: "Let go, don't strangle him!"
Liu Jizu came to his senses, let go of his hand, probed his nose, and breathed.
Zhao Tian and Zhao Mingzhu were still screaming, Wu Lun opened the curtain and said in a normal tone: "It's us, don't scream, it's not good to attract people." ”
Zhao Tian and Zhao Mingzhu stopped screaming when they heard the voice of an acquaintance, and their minds slowly stabilized.
Wu Lun began to carefully search Steward Zhou's body, but found no money.
Liu Jizu also walked over, and the two checked the carriage together, and finally found a hidden compartment under the bottom panel. It was originally used to load miscellaneous goods for cars, but now there is a bag inside, which is the ninety taels of gold that sold the farmland. Wu Lun put away the gold, untied a gourd from his waist, shook it vigorously, sprinkled some on the right side of the carriage, and then sprinkled it intermittently into the dense forest on the right.
After sprinkling, Wu Lun said to Zhao Tian's mother and daughter: "Let's carry you over, so that there will be no footprints, come up quickly." After saying that, Wu Lun carried Zhao Tian on his back, and Liu Jizu carried Zhao Mingzhu back to their own mule cart.
The two put the mother and daughter down, and Wu Lun said, "You go first to make it convenient, and you have to keep going for a while, and you all have to hide." ”
Taking advantage of the convenient opportunity for the mother and daughter, the two changed their clothes, wiped their faces, put the knife and clothes back in the hidden compartment under the seat, and took out everything else. After their mother and daughter were finished, they hid in and prepared some food and drink for them inside, and then Wu Lun drove the mule cart back to the main road without stopping. It only took about a cup of tea before and after the whole thing, and they were lucky, there was no one to communicate during this period, so they drove all the way to the county seat at a normal speed.
When he was about to leave the mountains, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon, Wu Lun drove the car into the mountains and forests again, and then explained a few words to Liu Jizu, and left in a hurry.
Liu Jizu released the mother and daughter from under their seats, Zhao Tian was fine, Zhao Mingzhu couldn't stand it anymore, and hurriedly rushed to the side of the road for convenience, and Zhao Tian also followed.
Liu Jizu also tied the cart, went to the other side to make it easier, came back to unload the mule, let the mule rest, he was about to feed the mule water and forage. Zhao Mingzhu stretched his arms and legs and came over, and asked with a smile, "Little uncle, how far is it?"
Liu Jizu was very awkward when he heard this title, he frowned and replied: "We are about the same age, it is awkward for you to call me that." Mr. Tian is also gone, so let's just match each other. How old are you, and what is your birthday?"
Zhao Mingzhu rolled his eyes and said, "Okay, this is what you want to talk about your peers! You tell me first, how old are you, how many months were born!"
"I'm sixteen years old, and I was born in the middle of the year, so it's easy to remember. ”
Zhao Mingzhu sighed, "No wonder you call it Ancestor Worship! It turns out that it is because of the name from the date of birth." ”
"No, no, my name is the succession, not the sacrificial sacrifice. ”
Zhao Mingzhu didn't take his stubble, "Then we are the same age, my birthday is older than yours, you want to call my sister, I call you little brother, it's so decided." Tell me to hear it!"
When Liu Jizu heard this, he thought that this little girl was too naughty, and she had to go on like this.
At this moment, Zhao Tian came over, saw that his daughter was rude, and scolded: "Mingzhu, don't be big or small! We are fleeing, and we will have to rely on your two uncles in the future, how can we be so ignorant!"
Zhao Mingzhu said aggrievedly: "He asked me to talk about my peers, how can you blame me!"
Liu Jizu also explained: "Yes, I asked for it, madam, don't blame Miss." ”
When Zhao Tian heard this, his tone softened slightly, what kind of lady, you are not allowed to call us that in the future, you can call me sister!"
Liu Jizu still felt awkward, and repeatedly insisted on being the same as Zhao Mingzhu, but Zhao Tian couldn't resist it, so he had to say: "Then let's do it! I and your master are brother and sister, so you can call me aunt." Mingzhu is born in October, younger than you, you call her little sister, she wants to call you brother. ”
Liu Jizu knew that he had been fooled by Zhao Mingzhu, and thought that this little girl was really a ghost, so he turned his head and said to Zhao Mingzhu: "Sister Mingzhu, don't call me brother soon." ”
Zhao Mingzhu didn't say a word, turned around and went back to the car to eat steamed buns with milk curd.
Zhao Tian shook his head, "Step ancestor, don't take it to heart. This child is spoiled, she used to be the only child in the family, and she can't be spoiled. ”
"It's okay, go get something to eat, too. ”
Zhao Tian was indeed hungry, although there was food in the dark grid, but she was frightened at the time, how could she be in the mood to eat, now that she is safe, the hunger also came, so she also returned to the car to eat with Zhao Mingzhu.
Liu Jizu fed the mule water and forage, then washed his hands, and also went over to take a steamed bun and break it, smear it with milk curd, and peel a braised egg and eat it inside.
Zhao Mingzhu had never seen this way of eating, so she followed suit, and the taste was actually good, so she gave her mother a clip. Their mother and daughter each ate one steamed bun and braised eggs and were full, and Liu Jizu ate five steamed buns and eggs by himself and was not full.
Zhao Mingzhu's eyes were straight, "Are you a pig?"
Liu Jizu didn't pay attention to her, turned his head and continued to eat, ate another steamed bun, and drank half a pot of water before he was full. He exhaled contentedly, went to the side alone to rest for a while, and then practiced martial arts.
Zhao Mingzhu watched Liu Jizu practice boxing, and the more he watched, the more surprised he became. I saw that Liu Jizu's every punch was full of speed and power, his moves were not fancy, they were extremely simple, but every punch was in pursuit of the fastest speed and the maximum use of strength, which was completely different from the martial arts practices she had seen in the city before.
After a punch, Liu Jizu stopped his move, just sweating on his body, and was about to continue his physical training.
Suddenly, a soft "Brother Zu!" came to his ears, making Liu Jizu shudder, and the hairs on his body stood up. He turned his head and saw Zhao Mingzhu running to him, with a light in his eyes, and said to Liu Jizu: "Brother Zu, you are so powerful!
Liu Jizu slowed down for a moment before he reacted, "Well, this has to be practiced since childhood, you are already past your age, and you can't practice anymore." ”
Zhao Mingzhu didn't agree, and kept pestering Liu Jizu.
Liu Jizu really had no choice, so he had to say: "If you make up your mind to practice, I can only teach you to build a foundation, do you want to learn?"
Zhao Mingzhu didn't know what it meant to build a foundation, so he hurriedly said: "I want to learn! I want to learn! You teach me quickly, and when I learn, I will go and kill those two sluts and their sluts." ”
Liu Jizu was speechless for a while, but he couldn't bear her entanglement, so he had to teach her. At the beginning, he thought that Zhao Mingzhu was just a whim, and she would retreat if she made it difficult for her, who knew that she was very serious and ruthless, and she actually persevered, and this practice was nearly an hour. At this time, it was already dark, and Liu Jizu estimated that Wu Lun was coming back soon, so he let Zhao Mingzhu rest, and he was busy going to set up the car and pack his things.
Sure enough, after a while, Wu Lun returned. Seeing that Liu Jizu did a good job according to his instructions, he nodded at him and let Zhao Tian's mother and daughter continue to hide in the dark grid. He drove out of the mountains and forests on a mule cart and continued to walk in the direction of the county seat.
When it got dark, they came to a town outside the city, and Wu Lun drove the car into a side street. There were two people standing at the corner of the street, and they knew at first sight that they were not good people. The street is short, and there are only two houses inside, door to door. There was a man waiting at the door of the house on the right, an old woman, who opened the door without saying anything when she saw the car coming.
Liu Jizu had already released Zhao Tian's mother and daughter in advance in accordance with Wu Lun's instructions, and wrapped up the set of clothes and two knives prepared by Qiu Er. Wu Lun helped their mother and daughter get out of the car, went directly to the door on the right, handed over the clothes and knife to the old woman, and asked her to hand them over to Qiu Er to deal with.
Wu Lun instructed the mother and daughter: "You two can hide here for a while, it will take about a month, and someone will come to bring you food." Don't go out, it's safe to be guarded outside. ”
Zhao Tian's mother and daughter were a little apprehensive, but they knew that they had no choice, so they had to say goodbye to Wu Lun and the others, and Zhao Mingzhu had to pull Liu Jizu to teach her martial arts.
Liu Jizu said: "You just continue to practice according to what I teach, and I will teach you the rest after you meet the requirements." ”
Zhao Mingzhu let go angrily, and Liu Jizu hurriedly left with Wu Lun.
