Chapter 7 Secret Bases
The dark night covered the sky, and Guxiang Village was already silent in the middle of the night, with a few dogs barking occasionally on the empty streets, and under the moonlight, only those houses of different heights were still silent in the dark night.
Squeak~
Suddenly, a small wooden door of a certain house was gently pushed open a small crack, a pair of sneaky eyes emerged from the crack, quietly looked around, and after making sure that there was no one outside, Su Yuer carefully opened the wooden door and stepped out of the door on tiptoe.
"Mom and Dad, wait for me to come back!"
He turned his head to look at the small home where he had lived for so many years, took a deep breath, gently closed the wooden door, and resolutely turned around and walked towards the street.
Under the moonlight, the young man carried a small wooden box on his back, with longing and yearning, and took firm steps towards the dream in his heart.
After turning a few village paths, Su Yu'er quickly saw the towering haystack, but he looked for a long time near the haystack, and he didn't see Erhei and Lao Jiu.
"No... You're not coming, are you?"
Su Yu'er frowned and thought about it, he knew that Lao Jiu and Er Hei had never been the kind of people who didn't count when they talked, and they were unlikely to make such jokes with him. But at this point, why should it come?
Su Yu'er looked up at the cold moon in the sky and sighed slowly.
"Were they discovered by the family when they left?"
He couldn't help but guess that if Lao Jiu and Erhei's family knew about it, I'm afraid his parents would be on their way by now.
"No, we can't wait!"
Su Yu'er shook his head, this was his only chance, he decided that he couldn't give up!
"Hey, little fish!"
Just when Su Yu'er was just about to leave, a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind him, and when he turned around, Er Hei and Lao Jiu were looking at him with a smile.
"Erhei, Lao Jiu, I thought you two were discovered by your family! Why did you come so late, did Erhei sleep again?"
Su Yu'er looked at the two friends and smiled in surprise.
"Didn't I just sleep once when I was a child, did you target me every day?"
Erhei muttered dissatisfiedly.
"I said that we would watch the sunrise together, you let me and Xiaoyuer blow the cold wind on the mountain all morning, and when we went back, we caught a cold, and we were uncomfortable covering the quilt for several days, you are embarrassed to say!"
Lao Jiu glanced at Erhei, turned his head to look at Su Yu'er and continued.
"But this time, Xiao Yu'er, you really wronged him. ”
"It's just that on such a cold day, we didn't close our eyes all night in order to let someone sleep warmly!"
Erhei smiled evilly and squeezed his eyebrows at Xiao Yu'er.
The three of them didn't talk too much, it was not early, and by the time they walked through the muddy mountain road to Tianhua Town, the night had already shown signs of fading.
"Time is running out, and we have to sneak into the warehouse where the merchants keep their jade chests before they get up. ”
Su Yu'er frowned and said.
"Little Yu'er, do you know where their warehouse is?"
Erhei scratched his head and asked puzzled.
"Didn't you say it was a carriage yesterday?
"Stupid, the horses of the convoy should be put in the horse pen of the Tianhua Inn, and the goods pulled by the carriage must find a place to put them!"
Lao Jiu tilted his head to look at Erhei, shrugged and said.
"You're smart!"
Erhei glared at Lao Jiu and said dissatisfiedly.
Su Yu'er listened to the two of them arguing and smiled speechlessly.
"I happened to see that day that they had moved all the jade boxes into the abandoned house behind the Tianhua Inn, and that day, I remember that there were at least a dozen of them. ”
Su Yu'er said to the two of them while speeding up.
"If it's that place, he's just a few hundred people guarding it for us, and it's useless!"
Erhei and Lao Jiu glanced at each other and laughed at the same time.
Tianhua Town is the most prosperous place in several nearby villages, and naturally many children regard this place as a childhood paradise on weekdays, and the abandoned house behind Tianhua Inn is the secret base of Su Yu'er and the three of them when they were young.
In the whole Tianhua Town, no one is really more familiar with that place than them, they even know when the dilapidated cobwebs in the corner of the wall were formed, and they also remember that there were several times when birds lived on the beams of the roof, and every brick and tile of the abandoned hut was a childhood memory for them.
Bypassing the Tianhua Inn, Su Yu'er from a distance saw two sturdy men leaning against the door of the abandoned house and napping.
"Just these two people? Didn't Xiao Yu'er say more than a dozen people? I was worried for a long time. ”
Erhei scratched his head and raised his eyebrows.
"Since people are here to rest, how can they all stay here to look at the warehouse, it must be shifts!"
Lao Jiu thought about it and said.
"They seem to be asleep?"
Erhei stared at the two strong men for a while, then scratched his head and said.
The three of them glanced at each other and nodded, and Su Yu'er walked out of the small alley where she was hiding, and walked towards the street in front of the abandoned house.
Lao Jiu and Er Hei stared at Su Yu'er's figure tightly, ready to support at any time if the situation was wrong, only to see Su Yu'er slowly walk in front of the two strong men and stand still in front of the abandoned house, but the two strong men did not react at all.
"It seems that I really fell asleep, and I slept quite deadly, now things are simple!"
Erhei patted his thigh and laughed, Lao Jiu hurriedly covered his mouth, for fear that he would wake up the two strong men in their sleep.
"Wait, Xiao Yu'er didn't open the door, why did she come back again?"
Lao Jiuyi grabbed Erhei, who was running out with half of his body, and frowned.
Erhei looked at it, and saw Su Yu'er turning neatly in front of the door, and slowly swaying back towards them.
"What the hell are you doing, little fish?"
Erhei looked at Su Yu'er who was going and returning in confusion, and asked.
"The door is locked..."
Su Yu'er shook her head with a wry smile and said.
"It's possible to pry it open, but you know that the slightest movement of the rotten wooden door will definitely wake up the two guys guarding the door. ”
"If that's the case..."
Lao Jiu thought about it when he heard this, and suddenly looked up at Su Yu'er and Erhei, the three of them glanced at each other, and laughed at the same time as they had a tacit understanding.
"Looks like we have to go that way!"
At the same time, the Wulong Village not far away does not have the tranquility of this Guxiang Village at all.
Hundreds of villagers gathered around Liu's door, talking to each other, not knowing what they were talking about.
"Ahh
A roar like a pig's roar resounded throughout Oolong Village, and Liu Dajia and Liu Dong, father and son, sat paralyzed in the ruins, their faces blackened by the smoke.
Just last night, the father and son who were still asleep suddenly heard someone in the yard who seemed to be scolding, so they went out to check, but who knew the time when they turned around, their last remaining house did not know who had burned it, and the fire spread rapidly, and the stunned Liu family father and son came to their senses and hurriedly ran to catch water to put out the fire, but it was still useless.
"Who the hell is it! Don't let me catch you!"
Liu Dajia looked at the courtyard where there was only one ruin, and cried, and let out an angry cry at the sky.
