Chapter 13: Human traffickers
The distance of twenty laps is no longer the night two years ago that he could only complete it with all his might, but he easily completed twenty laps, and after completing the daily task, Zilong rested for a while, took off the heavy sandbag tied to his body, and put it on the ground.
This sandbag is conservatively estimated to be about twenty catties, and Fang Cai Zilong is running quickly with such a sandbag on his back. At this moment, taking off the sandbag, Zilong only felt that his body seemed to float up, looking at the sky, it was already the time for the sun to rise at this moment, and more than an hour had passed unconsciously.
Zilong took off his clothes and returned to the room, Zhu Zhu was still sleeping, talking in his dreams, which was very cute. Zilong changed his clothes lightly, for fear of waking Zhu Zhu up.
After changing his clothes, Zilong was not in a hurry to wake up Zhu Zhu, but looked at the ** book seriously, the record of internal force in that book is very detailed, Zilong is talented and smart, and he soon became fascinated, and I don't know how long it took for Zhu Zhu to wake up from his slumber.
Zhu Zhu looked at Zilong, sleepy-eyed. Zilong's perception of the surroundings was amazing, and he naturally noticed that Zhu Zhu had woken up, put down the book at the moment, and asked softly, "Awake?" Then let's get ready to go." ”?? In the past two years, Zilong has been practicing in the house, reading books, and rarely going out. At this moment, when I got a chance to go out, I was naturally excited, and I couldn't bear it for a long time.
Zhu Zhu was far more excited than Zilong when he saw that he was about to leave so soon, and he nodded heavily at the moment: "Okay." ”
Zilong and Zhu Zhu didn't make too much preparation, Zilong prepared the Qingfeng sword, a longbow, and a tiger skin, which Zilong promised Zhu Zhu to sell for money to Zhu Zhu's grandfather for treatment.
Zilong and Zhu Zhu only spent more than an hour to come to the town where Zhu Zhu lived, although this town was not too far from where Zilong lived, but Zilong had never been here, let alone come to the town to play.
This town is far from big, but it is the time of day, and the town is still very lively, with people coming and going, and I don't know how many novelties Zilong has not seen.
Although Zilong's dress is weird, there are people coming and going in this town, and it is not that there are no people dressed like Zilong, so Zilong did not attract too much attention, but the little girl next to Zilong attracted many people's attention. This little girl, long pink carving, is very cute, holding Zilong's hand, seems to be very nervous and scared.
The two sold tiger skins, bought tonics, and came to the dilapidated house where Zhu Zhu's grandfather lived, but found that Zhu Zhu's grandfather was missing, and Zilong and Zhu Zhu searched for a long time in the town, but they didn't find it.
"I can't really remember where Grandpa would go. Zhu Zhu frowned and thought for a while before answering.
This made Zilong helpless, and finally came to this town, but he didn't know where Zhu Zhu's grandfather was. In desperation, I had to ask around, this town has a large population, there are not tens of thousands, I am afraid that there are thousands, who is good to ask. If it's a village, you can get the result by asking a little bit, but in such a small town, who to ask?
Just when Zilong was pondering, he didn't know that he had been targeted.
"Sister Kun, this man and a woman, I look like outsiders, this little girl looks good, she can sell it for a good price. ”?? On a very remote street corner, two men and a woman were secretly observing Zilong. This woman was born very ugly, with a gangster spirit between her eyebrows, and she was dressed differently from ordinary women, wearing men's clothes, and a sword hanging from her waist, which seemed to be expensive, but if you looked closely, she knew that this sword was flashy, and its sharpness was far less than the price paid.
However, the two men behind the woman, burly, very strong, tall, with eyes like electricity, tightly guarded behind the woman, one in front and one behind, protecting the woman's body as much as possible, and these two men were good at seeing them.
"This boy is young, and his kung fu is not much better, and when the people are young, we will teach this boy a good lesson, and then snatch the little girl away. The woman said coldly.
"Yes!"
Zilong saw that Zhu Zhu was tired of walking, so he found an inn to rest, the bed was very soft and comfortable, Zhu Zhu was lying on the soft bed, but he was not happy, his eyes were looking at the ceiling in a daze.
Zilong knew what Zhu Zhu was worried about, and strode forward to comfort Zhu Zhu. Zhu Zhu returned to the town, his heart missed his grandfather more urgently, although he was lying on the soft and comfortable bed at the moment, but he was thinking about his dear grandfather, and naturally felt that this soft bed did not have the slightest sense of comfort.
"Zhu Zhu, you are in the room, have a good rest. Brother Zilong went out and helped you investigate, is this okay?" Zilong saw that Zhu Zhu was so worried, for fear that Zhu Zhu would become ill, and said to Zhu Zhu.
I hope these words can make Zhu Zhu less worried.
After hearing this, the worry on Zhu Zhu's face was really much less, he nodded heavily, and said to Zilong: "Thank you, Brother Zilong." ”??“ Then you must stay here and not move. Whoever comes, don't open the door easily, okay?" Zilong instructed.
In the small town of Kanto, dragons and snakes are mixed, and people from three religions and nine streams gather. When Zilong entered the Kanto town, he had been targeted, but he didn't notice it.
"It really didn't take much effort to get here! I didn't think that this kid left the little girl at the inn and left alone. You are guarding the door, old lady, I will do it myself. This ugly woman entered the inn and went straight to Zhu Zhu's room, unlocked the door with a special key, carefully pushed the door open, and her movements were very gentle, and she floated into the room on tiptoe. Originally, Zhu Zhu, who was lying on the bed, was about to fall asleep, and suddenly found an extremely ugly round face in front of him, jumped up in fright, looked at the woman in front of him, and was dumbfounded.
Zhu Zhu suddenly remembered Brother Zilong's instructions, and immediately cried out with all the strength of his body, and shouted loudly: "Save ......"
Before Zhu Zhu's words were finished, the woman suddenly covered Zhu Zhu's mouth, put her thick fat fingers on her rosy lips, and made a shushing motion.
Zhu Zhu's mouth was covered by the woman, and she began to struggle violently, her little hands and feet kept waving. But a small child's family, where is the strength to have a female **. The woman frowned, secretly thinking that this little child was really disobedient, and the strength in her hand was a little heavier at the moment, and she hugged Zhu Zhu to death, but she didn't know that her strength was too great, which made Zhu Zhu's arm hurt for a while.
Zhu Zhu cried out, and the woman hurriedly covered Zhu Zhu's mouth again, and she was in a hurry.
"Don't cry, don't cry, my sister is not a bad person. The woman hurriedly explained: "You promise my sister, don't cry, okay." I let go of my hand. ”?? Zhu Zhu stared at the woman, her big eyes were very bright and cute, and she nodded.
The woman breathed a sigh of relief and let go of her hand. Zhu Zhu hurriedly shouted loudly: "Sister is a bad person, help, help!"
Frightened, the woman immediately covered Zhu Zhu's mouth with her hand again, and Zhu Zhu couldn't speak for a long time, so she had to stare at the woman angrily.
"It's a little girl who doesn't know what to do. The woman picked up Zhu Zhu with one hand, tiptoed open the door, looked around the house, and found that there was no one around, holding the little girl, from the corridor, to the bottom.
There were a lot of people in the hall on the first floor, and the woman looked like she was walking, but in fact she looked like a swimming fish, scurrying in the crowd, and there were so many people around that none of them could touch her body.
The core of the town is very prosperous, but the more you go to the outskirts of the town, it becomes more and more barren. Not to mention, the number of people is getting smaller and smaller, and the law and order is becoming more and more chaotic.
Along the way, Zilong inquired about the whereabouts of Grandpa Zhu Zhu according to the appearance described by Zhu Zhu, but there was still no result, did he go back to the dilapidated house? Thinking in his heart, he took a step towards the dilapidated house.
When Zilong came to the dilapidated house he had come to in the morning again, Zilong's nose was sour again, because the dilapidated house was surrounded by mountains of garbage, which had not been cleaned up for an unknown amount of time.
The smell on his face made Zilong's brows furrow tightly, living in such an environment, let alone a seventy or eighty-year-old man and a seven or eight-year-old girl, even Zilong's strong body could not withstand such an environment.
Zilong secretly clenched his fists and walked in from the dazzling garbage. As in the morning, there was no one in the house, and Zhu Zhu's grandfather still didn't come back.
Looking at the dilapidated thatched hut, there was no furniture to be seen at all, the only thing was a bed, two stools, and a table, and the room seemed very calm.
Zilong was also tired, sitting on the bed, his brows furrowed. Now that it is getting late, where will an old man who is over seventy years old go?
Zilong smelled a strong medicinal smell in the wooden house. Zilong looked towards a cabinet next to the bed, where there was a ceramic bowl with a little residue of medicine residue remaining on it.
Zilong didn't know what kind of illness Zhu Zhu's grandfather had, and hoped that when the old man came back, he would take him to the best Langzhong in the town to treat him.
Zilong is now very sympathetic to Grandpa Zhu and Zhu Zhu, the two poor grandfathers and granddaughters, because he used to be a poor boy, seeing the scene in front of him, Zilong couldn't help but think of the days when he and Grandpa Zhu were dependent on each other, and it was very bitter and bitter in those days, and it overlapped with the scenes in front of him.
Not far away, a figure was walking towards here. Zilong thought it was Zhu Zhu's grandfather who was back, and rushed towards the black figure quickly, and when it was very close, Zilong found that this figure was not Zhu Zhu's grandfather at all, but a woman, this woman was in her thirties, and she was quite standard.
The woman was very surprised when she saw Zilong, walked towards Zilong, looked at Zilong curiously, saw Zilong with an extraordinary temperament, gorgeous clothes, and was a person who was not short of money at a glance, and asked, "Do you know the old man who lives here?"
"I don't know, I'm also looking for him, does the eldest sister know an old man who lives here?" Zilong thought to himself, this woman should know Zhu Zhu's grandfather, otherwise how could she come here.
"What are you doing with him, a poor ghost?" the woman asked again, looking at Zilong in surprise.
When Zilong heard that she looked down on the poor, he was immediately furious: "What did you say? What's wrong with the poor man? What are you looking for him?"
The woman was so frightened by Zilong that she didn't dare to speak, knowing that this young man was not easy to mess with, and said softly: "This old man, oh no, this old man owes me rent.
Zilong suddenly thought of the big bad guy mentioned in Zhu Zhu's mouth, maybe it was this woman urging the rent, and said angrily: "Are you surnamed Liu?"
"Yes, yes, how does this hero know?" Zilong couldn't help but feel funny when he saw her deliberately squeezed out smile, knowing that it was his scolding just now that scared her, and he still had a sword on his body, maybe he was afraid that he would kill him, was it really so terrible to start a fire by himself? Then he asked the woman, "How much does this grandfather owe you?" Ten taels of silver. The woman didn't dare to look at Zilong, and she didn't expect Zilong to help the old man repay the money.
"This is ten taels of silver, please let me know in time when you see this old man, I live in the Kanto Inn. Zilong neatly took out ten taels of silver from his arms and handed them to the woman.
The woman took the silver and nodded vigorously, watching Zilong's anger seem to subside, and the tension in her heart relaxed slightly.
"I see that he must go to the inn to inform you. With that, the woman turned and walked briskly outside.
Zilong sighed deeply, thinking of Zhu Zhu who was resting in the inn, he had been away for two hours, Zhu Zhu woke up, and he couldn't see that he would be afraid, so he hurriedly rushed to the Kanto Inn.
