Emperor made a pair

Chapter 45 Red Dust

Life is alive, eating and drinking are two words.

In any world, food and drink cost money.Yuntian and Jiehuo, orphans and widows, have been walking the rivers and lakes for a long time, and finally one day, they ran out of money.

"Want to make money? What will you do?" asked the proprietress of a restaurant, picking her nails.

Yun Tian counted with his fingers: "I can do a lot, washing clothes, hunting, making biscuits, and identifying herbs."

"Herbal medicine? The people in our place are all strong and strong, and there is a genius doctor from Lu who is in charge. Who will buy you, a young man?"

"Could it be that I can't do anything? Sister, you can introduce me to a job. You can't watch us and my father starve to death on the street."

The proprietress rolled her eyes, and suddenly lowered her voice and said, "The gangsters on the East Street robbed Zhu's fourth son's money the day before yesterday. Didn't you help him solve it? I think you're crippled, but you're pretty good at it. How about it?" , are you interested in betting on darts?"

Yun Tian lowered his head and glanced at his feet, "I don't have any objections, but is Escort Hu willing?"

"Hey, as long as you are good at it, what is he not willing to do? I know her wife, do you need me to say something nice for you?"

Yun Tian smirked, rubbed his hands together and said, "That would be great, thank you Madam Boss, let's do it this way."

The proprietress spat at him, "When you earn money, don't forget to come back and settle all my credit accounts. Our small business can't afford you to eat free food every day."

"Of course, I won't forget you."

Yun Tian smiled, his handsome appearance was quite charming, the proprietress blushed, scolded "you're old and unscrupulous", and went back to the kitchen with her plump waist twisted.

Jie Huo is now three years old, and he babbles like a parrot all day long, imitating other people's words. Yun Tian is very troubled by his habit, because he only knows how to learn, but he doesn't know how to distinguish which words are good and which words can't be said casually.Ever since Jiehuo said to Yuntian, "You old and unscrupulous" during dinner that day, Yuntian planned to teach him the art of speaking.

The scenery in the south of the Yangtze River is beautiful, with beauties like clouds.A lady held a bamboo bone and silk umbrella and came from the other side of the small bridge gracefully.Yun Tian stood at the end of the bridge and said to Jie Huo: "When you see a young sister, you have to praise her for being young and beautiful. You can't say that she's not like 30 years old at all like you did to Zhu Zhuzhang's daughter-in-law. Do you understand?"

Ji Huo nodded in confusion.

The lady passed in front of them, Jie Huo said crisply: "Sister is so beautiful!"

The silk umbrella moved lightly, revealing a bloody mouth.The young lady blinked her mung bean eyes, raised a pair of thick eyebrows and smiled happily: "Oh, what a cute little brother, his mouth is so sweet! Come, my sister will reward you with a piece of candy!"

Jiehuo shrank into Yuntian's arms in horror, with a look of remorse on his face: "Daddy, I lied, will my nose get longer?"

Yun Tian covered Jie Huo's mouth, and limped away.

When the father and son came to the bodyguard bureau, they happened to meet the chief bodyguard coming out with a few bodyguards.

As soon as Director Yang saw Yun Tian, ​​he grinned and said, "Take your son out for a walk again?"

Yun Tian explained the purpose of coming, Yang Biaotou thought for a while, and said: "There is such a thing, but we have traveled all the way, so we can't procrastinate, you..."

Yun Tian said quickly: "I will definitely not delay the organization's schedule."

Another bodyguard said with a smile: "You are crippled, you can walk slower than others, we are here to bet on the bodyguards, not to play."

"No, no, if you want to take the dart to its destination safely, you must have a thug, right? Although I am lame, I can still fight."

Yang Biaotou said: "Don't gossip too much, let's see the real chapter under your hand, Niu Er, you have a few tricks with him."

Niu Er is the bodyguard who laughed at Yun Tian as a lame earlier.With obvious contempt on his face, he took the lead in walking into the Escort's usual practice area for the escorts, and drew a long knife from the weapon rack very chicly.

Three years ago when Yuntian fell from the edge of the cliff, he spent more than half of his energy in order to keep Jiehuo safe, and now it is not as good as one-third of the original one.But even if it was only this third, it was enough for him to deal with Niu Er.Under Yun Tian's deliberate release of water, Niu Er managed to go through thirty moves and was defeated.

Now no one dared to underestimate this lame man, even though Yun Tian couldn't walk, but relying on his lightness kung fu, he was able to avoid all the attacks of Niu Er.Chief Escort Yang looked at him appreciatively, and laughed loudly: "It turns out that we have lost sight of Mount Tai. Now that we have such skills, please take care of each other with brothers in the future."

Yuntian repeatedly said yes.

Convinced, Niu Ershu followed Yun Tian all the way, and asked like a cannonball: "What's your name? Where are you from? Which master did you learn this kung fu from?"

Before Yuntian could open his mouth, Jiehuo replied in an obedient manner: "Heaven and earth are our home, eat wherever you go."

Niu Er was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Your son is a clever little guy."

Yun Tian sighed: "He's right, to be honest, because of an accident three years ago, I don't remember anything from the past, even who the child's mother is."

Niu Er didn't expect that his carefree appearance would have such an embarrassing past, and he sympathized and admired him for a moment, "Ahem... It's a pity, but why don't a man have a wife? It is not difficult to find another daughter-in-law."

Yun Tian smiled, but didn't reply.

Niu Er asked again: "I don't know your name yet? Oh... probably you don't..."

Yun Tian nodded calmly: "I don't remember, the family who took care of me in the village before was surnamed Xie, and they all called me Second Brother Xie."

"Then we are really destined. I am Niu Er and you are Xie Er."

Yang Biaotou passing by: "...two bastards."

"Hey!"

Three days later, the escort team set off. Yun Tian watched the group of people set off mightily, and suddenly felt that the scene was somewhat familiar.

Jie Huo excitedly said: "Daddy, will we meet bad guys?"

Niu Er said: "You can hide in the carriage, the bad guys have their own lessons from your father."

Yun Tian had trouble with his legs and feet, so he rode a horse alone, and got the same treatment as Boss Yang.After doing this for three or four days, everyone came to a mountain road.When he just walked to the center of a suspension bridge, he saw a group of people suddenly and silently appearing from the front and back of the suspension bridge, each of them carrying a big knife, fierce and fierce, and the purpose of coming was self-evident.

Chief Escort Yang remained calm, holding several poisoned plum blossom darts in his hands.

Although the hidden weapon is not open and aboveboard, it doesn't require serious means to deal with thieves.

"Heroes, although you are using people's money to do things for others, money is not as important as life. If you are willing to leave five boxes of goods, I will let you leave safely."

Yang Biaotou looked around calmly, and winked with Yuntian.

Yun Tian shrugged, picked up a heavy wooden box, and said helplessly: "Since this is the case, there is no other way."

As soon as he finished speaking, he swung his arm and threw it violently. The wooden box flew through the air, hitting the bandit leader until his nose bleeds profusely.

"Take advantage of it now!"

Yang Biaotou and Yun Tian flew up and rushed towards the two groups of bandits one after the other. Yun Tian waved a bandit who was about to cut off the bridge cable, and Yang Biaotou led all the escorts and the bandits to fight. It's hard to beat.Seeing that Yuntian's manpower is weak, Niu Er intends to help him, but he didn't expect that Yuntian defended impeccably with one enemy.

After a while, the situation of the battle became clear, and Yun Tian kept the rear position, so he didn't let the gangsters cut off the suspension bridge, otherwise they would all fall down.

After the bandit leader Wuhuada was tied and sent to the back of the horse, everyone set off again.

Jiehuo was very curious about the living bandits, and asked childishly, "What's your mother's name?"

The bandit came in without knowing it, and replied, "The Su Clan of Lizhou... why are you asking this!"

"Lizhou?" Yuntian's ears moved, and he pondered, "This place is so familiar."

Niu Erdao: "Could it be that you have been there before? Or that you were born there? Think about it carefully."

Some broken images gradually emerged, and it was still the figure in Xuanyi, standing beside him with an inexplicably familiar nostalgia.Yun Tian suddenly felt his nose sour, and something almost gushed out of his eye sockets.

"...The wind and sand were so strong that my young master was lost in tears."

Niu Er laughed and said, "Master? You are a father and still call yourself Master?"

Yang Biaotou had heard about Yuntian to some extent, and Yuntian had just helped to keep the goods, so he said generously: "Since I feel familiar, I will go to Lizhou to have a look after this trip. Don't worry, the money will be enough." .”

Yun Tian didn't want to take more money for nothing, so he followed Yang Biaotou to bet a few times on the darts. In this way, when he arrived in Lizhou with Jie Huo, it would be half a year later.

It is said that the scenery of Lizhou is beautiful, but when the sky comes, it has already entered winter, and the red flowers, willows and green have turned into silver.

The gray sky was covered with thin snow, Jie Huo was wrapped in a thick leather jacket, and was hugged tightly by Yun Tian.

The weather was cold, so there were fewer tourists. When Yuntian stared blankly at the scenery of Lizhou, Jiehuo in his arms suddenly sneezed.

Yun Tian was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Is it cold? Let's go, I'll make you a padded jacket."

He didn't need others to show the way, he turned a few alleys and stopped in front of a cloth shop.

Jie Huo was surprised: "How did Daddy know that padded jackets can be made here?"

"I can't say it, it feels like I've been here... let's go in first and talk about it."

There is a stove in the store, so it is very warm. When the store owner saw the fire, he smiled and said: "Oh, this young man is really handsome! They say that our Lizhou has beautiful mountains and rivers, and all the beauties we raise are beautiful, but I don't have any." I have seen how many children can compare with your son!"

Yuntian was flattered by the praise, secretly calculated his own financial resources, and felt that it would not be a problem to make a good padded jacket for Jiehuo, so he asked Jiehuo to choose the fabric he liked.

The shopkeeper took a look at Yun Tian, ​​and suddenly said: "This guest officer is very friendly, has he ever been to the small shop?"

Yun Tian's heart moved: "The store has seen me?"

The shopkeeper thought about it carefully, and felt that this person was dressed plainly and had a lame foot, which was very different from the noble and high-spirited young man in the past, so he mused and did not answer.

Seeing him like this, Yun Tian knew that these words were just a way for the store to get closer to the customers, so he could only smile disappointedly.

Not long after, Jiehuo picked out the fabric, Yuntian paid the deposit, and walked out with him in his arms.

The father and son braved the wind and snow to come to the inn. After eating and drinking, Yuntian wanted to settle down for Jiehuo and go to the house to rest earlier, but Jiehuo hadn't seen snow for a long time, so he was very happy and wanted to play for a while.

For this son, Yuntian always responded to his request, so he had no choice but to tell the shopkeeper, and took Jiehuo to the backyard of the inn to build a snowman.

The two passed through the back door, only to find that there were already two children playing inside.A boy and a girl, about four or five years old, were playing with two golden little cloth tigers "biting" each other.

"Hey! Where does the little thing come from, dare to be presumptuous in front of my mountain king! Eat me!"

"Hahaha, it's so ugly, the king of the mountain! I think it's a little wild cat!"

Jie Huo's eyes lit up, and he held Yun Tian's hand tightly, his little face full of excitement.

The two children noticed his father and son, looked at each other, walked over and asked Jie Huo: "Do you have a cloth tiger? If so, we will take you to play with us."

Jie Huo shook his head.

Yun Tian glanced at his son with guilt, and said, "Cloth tiger... is it fun? Can I teach you how to play other things?"

"Impossible! My mother sewed this tiger up for me. It's fun!"

Jiehuo looked at Yuntian expectantly.

Yun Tian struggled for a long time, then gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll sew one for you!"

An hour later, Yun Tian held a bunch of delicate things and showed them to Jie Huo, "Look, doesn't the tiger that Dad sewed for you look good?!"

Jiehuo happily took the item, looked left and right, couldn't put it down, although it was really ugly compared to other people's, but Jiehuo thought it was the most beautiful little cloth tiger in the world.

"Daddy, I can play with my little brother and my little sister!"

Yun Tian touched his head lovingly, paused for a moment, then took him into his arms and rubbed his tender face with pity, "My dear son, it's getting late, they probably all fell asleep , go and play with them tomorrow, okay?"

Jiehuo was a little disappointed, but he didn't object, so he obediently snuggled into Yuntian's arms.

Yun Tian tucked the quilt tightly, and patted Jie Huo's back to coax him to sleep.

Jie Huo said, "Daddy, let's tell a story."

"Okay," Yun Tian thought for a while, "The girl and the beast we talked about last time..."

"The beast took the girl back and wanted to marry her."

"Oh, let's continue." Yun Tian cleared his throat and was about to speak when he suddenly heard a rapid and loud knock on the door from outside.

"Daddy, what's the matter?" Jiehuo poked his head out of his arms and looked around curiously.

Yun Tian vaguely heard the woman's cry, that voice seemed to be the proprietress of the inn, he frowned and went to open the door, asking: "What happened?"

The proprietress's hair was disheveled and her face was anxious, "My two children were playing well in the backyard, and they disappeared in a short time! I searched everywhere but couldn't find it, woo woo..."

Yun Tian thought that since the child is so old, he would not get lost in his own house, so he comforted him: "Maybe he went out to play, did the proprietress look for it outside?"

"I've looked for it! I've looked for it all! No one has seen my child!" The proprietress's voice was choked with despair.

Yun Tian felt strange, at this time someone explained: "This brother doesn't know something. There were several cases in Lizhou a few days ago, and many children disappeared inexplicably, which made people in Lizhou panic. Now there are not many children on the street, and they are all locked in the house by their parents."

Yun Tian recalled it for a while, it seems that such a thing happened, no wonder he felt that Lizhou was much deserted before, so it turned out that something like this happened.

"I heard that the thief is very skillful. Brother Ying of Mrs. Zhang's family was feeding the chickens in the yard. In just the blink of an eye, he disappeared! Oh my... If there is something wrong with my child, how can I live?" Ah..." The more the proprietress thought about it, the more frightened she became, and she burst into tears.

Jiehuo heard the movement, and ran out holding Yun Tianxie's little cloth tiger. Hearing that the little brother and the young lady had disappeared, he said anxiously: "Daddy, let's go find them!"

A bystander said: "It can't be forced, the young master is better to be obedient! Ma'am, I think you should report to the official as soon as possible."

Although the proprietress was grateful to Yun Tian for his help, she felt that a cripple was useless after all, so she went to the government with tears in her eyes.

Yun Tian returned to the room with Jie Huo in his arms, thinking that this matter was extraordinary.

Although Lizhou is not a place under the feet of the emperor, it is not a remote village without kingly laws, where children are robbed in broad daylight, is that okay?

Maybe it was because Yun Tian was born with an injustice, or maybe it was because he didn't want to act like a cold-blooded man in front of his son. After some consideration, Yun Tian said to Jie Huo: "Son, Dad, go out and help find those two little ones." Guy, you stay here, you are not allowed to go anywhere, understand?"

Jie Huo opened his eyes wide, "I'm with Daddy."

"It's windy outside and you'll catch a cold. You should sleep well and be obedient."

Jie Huo shook his head: "Daddy, I'm scared!"

Yun Tian's heart trembled, and he softened immediately, "...well, follow Daddy and don't run around."

"En!" Jiehuo climbed onto Yuntian's back.Yun Tian took out cloth strips and tied him up firmly, and then went out with the umbrella.
