The reborn sycophant

For a moment, everything is silent, and the bright moon in the sky is hidden behind thick clouds, only willing to show half of its face. Even so, there is still a clear light shining, reflecting the mountains, rivers and lakes, reflecting the big cities and small ponds, and it is still a little even. , reflecting the little man who escaped from a certain cage in the dark.

Their escape was based on a small wooden hairpin.

It was Wei Chuyan who took it from the head of a sleeping girl. These people drank the medicine and fell asleep at this time. Wei Chuyan went to find the hairpin and came back again. His movements were light and did not wake anyone up.The door is locked from the outside to the inside by a latch, and it cannot be pushed open from the inside, but it is not difficult to crack it. Just insert a piece of bamboo through the gap, move it upwards, and push the latch open once and for all.

That day when the assassin hung in front of Zhao Ji's window, he used this method, he used thin knives instead of bamboo slices, and Wei Chuyan replaced them with hairpins, it was the same.

Grinding, topping, after a series of simple and meticulous movements, the door latch was lifted high from the outside, and then slid to the side. Wei Chuyan stopped carefully and pushed the door open. one person.

She held Zhao Ji's hand tightly, and was about to get out, when Zhao Ji whispered "ah".

Looking back at the first banquet, I saw a person who was sleeping next to Zhao Ji had woken up at some point, and was holding Zhao Ji's trousers with his bound hands. His eyes were amazingly bright, as if they were shining, like a person who saw food. hungry wolf.

He stared at Wei Chuyan who was holding on to the door frame, and whispered, "Help me."

Wei Chuyan looked around, except for him, no one woke up, and he hesitated in his heart.

Dozens of people cannot be saved, but this person is not necessarily impossible to save.

But... this man, his left leg is broken.It was discounted when I escaped a few days ago.

How can it be saved if it is so cumbersome?

Indeed, it was because of the leg pain that this person woke up and fell asleep. It was difficult to fall asleep just now, and he woke up when there was any movement. At this time, he saw Zhao Ji and the others about to run, and hope was ignited in his heart. He hugged Zhao Ji's How can not let go of the feet.

"No, he can't run with a broken leg."

Wei Chuyan squatted down, and wanted to break his hands away with a sudden heart attack.Zhao Ji lowered her head and saw his eyes that darkened in an instant, she was a little hesitant, she also squatted down, and whispered to Wei Chuyan: "Let's help him untie the rope, and the rest is up to him."

Hearing Zhao Ji's words, the man nodded quickly. He seemed to be afraid that the businessman would hear the movement, so he didn't make a sound at all, very sensible.

Compared with entanglement with him here, it took only a moment to untie the rope for him. Wei Chuyan nodded, went to help him loosen his hands and feet, and was about to take Zhao Ji away, but the man used the newly freed The hand grabbed Zhao Ji even harder.

"You guys have to take me away, I can't go, you can't help people and only help halfway."

The poor man showed his fangs just now, and both Wei Chuyan and Zhao Ji understood that he didn't intend to just untie the rope and let go.

"You guys, if you don't take me away, I'll yell loudly, don't try to knock me out, even if I can only yell, it's enough for them to hear."

People's hearts... why is it like this?

Zhao Ji crouched there with a frosty face.

Wei Chuyan was thinking, if she made a move, it would be impossible for this man to call for help!Just as he was thinking, before he could make a move, the man suddenly fell to the ground without making a sound.

It was Zhao Ji, just now, it was Zhao Ji who was squatting in front of the man who stretched out his hand like lightning and knocked him out.

"Let's go."

Master Zhao Ji sighed in general, feeling a little lost.

human heart.

After going out the door, carefully pressing the latch back to its original place, Wei Chuyan held Zhao Ji's hand tightly, led her to turn over the courtyard wall, and began to run away in the night.

Running across the long street and through the alleys, the dark houses on both sides of the road flashed by. They ran so fast that the sound of the wind rang in their ears, like the neighing of wild animals.

Zhao Ji was held by Wei Chuyan and ran forward, sometimes turned a corner, and the wind stopped for a while, she heard Chuyan's slightly suppressed panting, mixed with her own rapid panting, feeling unbelievably peaceful in her heart.

She was clearly on the run, and she hadn't seen real safety yet, but Wei Chuyan took her and held her hand so tightly, she knew that Wei Chuyan would definitely send her back.

So, how can it be unstable?

After running halfway across the city, Wei Chuyan stopped at the door of an inn with a lantern hanging on it. Wei Chuyan took a few breaths, and when his breathing became a little more stable, he stepped forward and knocked on the door.

Not long after, the door opened. Lin Ling'er, the shopkeeper of this inn, a sleepy young woman, poked her head out from the door and rolled her eyes when she saw the two "little beggars" outside the door. , yawned and flashed back behind the door, intending to close it.

At this moment, a little dirty fist got stuck on the door. Lin Ling'er was upset that her sleep was disturbed, but she didn't want to embarrass such a young child. She originally planned to pretend that she was disturbed by cats and dogs At this time, seeing that these two beggars who couldn't do business at all were still entangled with her, she suddenly got a little angry, opened the door suddenly, and wanted to curse.

Then, she saw the fist open, and a gleaming gold ingot was lying in the small palm.

The words of cursing were suppressed immediately, and the drowsiness was gone, Ling'er smiled happily and grabbed the gold back into her hand, pinched it with her fingertips, she was sure it was gold, and weighed it again.

Such a piece of gold can cover her entire small shop, but there is still a lot to be found!

It turned out that it was not a beggar, but the God of Wealth!

"You two are objective, it's so late, you must be staying at the hotel, right?"

She welcomed the two of them in with a smile, closed the door smoothly, and then heard the child walking in front say, "Is there a room?"

"There are, of course there are. I wonder if you want one or two?"

"One room." The smaller one said immediately.

"Okay, one room!"

"By the way, shopkeeper, please send someone to boil some water and bring it to the room. We have to wash it. Also, get us two clean clothes. After these are done, we won't need to change the money."

After Wei Chuyan finished speaking, he turned his head and glanced at Zhao Ji, thinking that she hadn't eaten for two days, and said, "Please send me some more food, something lighter."

There should be no omissions. Wei Chuyan took Zhao Ji's hand and walked upstairs. After walking a few steps, he heard Zhao Ji add: "Please don't say anything about our staying with you tonight."

Strange guests, strange requests, but the gold in his hand is full of gold!I guessed in my heart that these might be two children who ran away from home due to quarrels with their families, but they didn't dare to neglect.They open the store to do business, and many things are seen through without telling the truth, only money, which must be firmly held in their hands.

"Understood, there are no guests coming tonight, don't worry, I don't say anything else, I just keep my mouth shut."

With a hearty smile, Lin Ling'er put the gold into her purse, first called the cook to get food, then went back to the room to wake up her wife, one went to the woodshed to boil water, and the other went to make clothes for them.

In a small household, there is no clerk, there is a cook, but she and his wife take care of these trivial matters on weekdays.

Sometimes when guests come in the middle of the night, they will be so busy.

Entering the room pointed by the shopkeeper, after closing the door, Wei Chuyan and Zhao Ji looked at each other for a moment, then suddenly laughed.

Smiling and laughing, Zhao Ji felt a little sad again, she threw herself into Wei Chuyan's arms, wiped away the tears she shed, Chuyan touched her small head, and there were sparkles in the corners of her eyes, but she could still restrain herself, not like Wei Chuyan. Zhao Ji cried out in such aggrieved and joyful way.

It's not easy...really not easy.

The previous tension has passed, and now I feel relaxed. Although there is still a long way to go, although I know that it is not really safe if I can't reach the palace, but after escaping, it means that another mountain in front of me has been overturned. Well, the two of them can finally let go of their minds and have a good night's rest.

Lying in Wei Chuyan's arms and crying for a while, someone knocked on the door: "Guest, the water has been boiled, may I use it now?"

A gentle voice that is not quite similar to the slightly pungent voice before.

Wei Chuyan opened the door, and saw a handsome woman standing in front of the door, with a bucket of hot water under her feet, her cheeks were slightly flushed, she must have carried it all the way up.

"you are?"

For a moment, Wei Chuyan was on guard, but after a while, her eyes returned to peace.

Nervous, nervous, this should be someone from the inn.

She fled all the way, and being on guard has become a common thing. Just now, she seemed to scare him.

"The head of my family asked me to boil some hot water for you, oh, it's the shopkeeper who opened the door for you just now, I'm the head of the house." Startled by a child, Yang Hxiu'er was stunned for a moment, and then Na Na explained.

At this moment, Lin Ling'er rushed over with a few clothes in her arms, and she was not surprised to see that Yang Xiu'er had already arrived at Wei Chuyan's door, but when she saw the bucket of water, she glanced at her reproachfully: "I told you to burn it." Water, I didn’t ask you to lift it up, can you have as much strength as me? Is the water all boiled? I’ll just lift the buckets, and you’re not allowed to move any more.”

After being "reprimanded" by the head of the family in front of the children, Yang Xiu'er smiled embarrassedly: "You ran so fast, I think the guests should be in a hurry too, so I brought it up without thinking about it, and it doesn't matter whether you are left or right. , why do you have to tell me again?"

"You!"

Giving the clothes to Wei Chuyan, Lin Ling'er explained: "It's so late, all the shops on the street are closed, except for those of us who are in the inn business, you can't buy clothes. I wore them when I was young. I saw them. Next, you should be able to put it on, don’t worry, wash it clean and put it away, I was not differentiated at that time, and there was no smell on it, so it won’t bother you.”

Holding the clothes in his hands, Wei Chuyan glanced at Zhao Ji.Zhao Ji didn't show any repulsive expression, she even wore the clothes of the dead, so what is this in front of her?

"Have a heart."

After expressing his thanks, Wei Chuyan saw Lin Ling'er urging his wife to go to bed, coughed lightly, and said with a little apology: "Shopkeeper, we may need to wash it a few more times... I have to trouble you Boil more water."

"Hey, what's the trouble? You paid for it, so much money! Even if you don't sleep tonight, I have to take care of things for you. Don't worry! Just wait, There are still a few buckets of water below, I will bring them up for you first, after washing this one, the next pot should be boiled."

After thanking him again, Wei Chuyan also went down to help carry the water, Zhao Ji didn't want to be separated from Wei Chuyan, so she followed Wei Chuyan wherever he went.Like a little tail, she followed Chuyan, and when Chuyan brought water, she also took a bucket of water and wanted to bring it up, but Chuyan snatched it away.

Whether it's a blind favor or a doting, as long as she can do it herself, she hopes that Zhao Ji will live more comfortably.

This person has suffered so much, she had no choice but now she has the conditions to treat her better, so she treats her better.She is the soul of an adult, and she feels overwhelmed by those things after walking through these days, let alone Zhao Ji, who is really only ten years old?
