Wife is cruel

The oil lamp in the secret room was flickering, flickering on and off, making it very dim. Zhao Han frowned tightly in his sleep.

"No," Zhao Han screamed and opened his eyes. At this moment, he was covered in cold sweat.In a dream just now, he saw Fanzi being captured by the rebels, the child and Uncle Wu being burned to death, and he could only watch helplessly, powerless.

Zhao Han breathed a sigh of relief, lifted the quilt and stood up, wiped off the sweat on his brother's forehead, and took a sip of water before Zhao Han calmed down, it was just a dream.

Sitting by the bed, Zhao Han looked at Anshui's son and Lin Fan, and smiled unconsciously. Fortunately, their family was still alive at this time.

Last night was the first time he killed someone. At that time, he didn't feel afraid, but he didn't expect to have such a nightmare. Although he was shocked, fortunately, it was just a dream.Zhao Han glanced at the secret room, Wu Zilin was still sleeping by the charcoal stove, just when Zhao Han was about to tidy up the secret room, Lin Zian turned his little head and crawled out of his father's arms, one big and one small two The eyes collided immediately.

Seeing Zhao Han, Lin Zian suddenly "giggled" twice, Zhao Han was amused, and stretched out his hand to fish out the little guy and put on his clothes, so as not to disturb the bed and freeze Lin Fan.

He couldn't fall asleep at this time, and he didn't want Lin Fan and Uncle Wu to wake up the quilt. After feeding the little guy some water, Zhao Han tied the little guy behind his back with a belt and a thin blanket, and then began to tidy up the secret room. , In the blink of an eye, Lin Zi'an thought it was quite fun, and would "giggle" from time to time to enjoy himself.

More than a dozen boxes of radishes and five or six boxes of charcoal were piled up in the corner, and Zhao Han also packed the radishes that fell on the ground last night to the corner. Even if there was no other food, these radishes would be enough for them to eat for a while.Zhao Han was actually very worried in his heart. If the snow fell too much and formed snow accumulation, he would have no way to observe the outside, which would be very troublesome.

In particular, Zhao Han did not find out when the rebels left last night, but Zhao Han felt that those rebels should not stay too long after the massacre of the city. People will definitely be made dumplings, so they must make a quick decision and stay for no more than three days at most.

After working for a while, Zhao Han untied the little guy behind his back. It should be almost noon now. After warming up some rice porridge and feeding his son, Zhao Han decided that regardless of whether there was any news or whether it was snowing, he would be back in three days. Open the door of the secret room to observe.Fortunately, although the secret room is dim, there is no way to see if it is noon, but day and night can still be distinguished. There is a faint light over the small water pool, and it is impossible to find it if you are not careful. Zhao Han also just noticed it.

Lunch is still very simple, Zhao Han has only a few ingredients in his hands, he can't play too many tricks, and he can't let the smell disperse too much, mainly because it shouldn't be too fragrant.The bacon was thrown into the stewed radish at the end. Although it had no fragrance, it still made Wu Zilin and Wu Bolinfan wake up one after another.

"You should be hungry too, come over and have something to eat first, the water at the pool is no longer usable, so we need to save some water." Zhao Han said to the few people who woke up.

Lin Fan couldn't understand why the water on the other side of the pool couldn't be used. He asked suspiciously, "What's the matter? drank."

Even Wu Zilin and Wu Bo felt that what Lin Fan said was right, if it rained, they would not have to worry about drinking water, why couldn't it be used.

Zhao Han looked at everyone in the room except for the little guy in his arms, they all looked at him strangely and finally said: "You guys forgot that I dumped the body in the yard last night, it was snowing outside, the water should be the It melted in the fire, so it is definitely not drinkable. Fortunately, Fanzi prepared a lot of water a while ago, which is barely enough for us to use for three days, so save some and don’t waste it.”

After hearing this, Lin Fan suddenly realized that if Zhao Han hadn't mentioned it, he would have selectively forgotten what happened last night. Although he felt very uncomfortable, at this moment Lin Fan also faced up to what happened to him last night, without Zhao Han's calmness , their family has all died at this time.

"It's snowing outside, damn it, Zhao Han, then we can't go out, once the secret room is opened, the traces left will be easily noticed." Wu Zilin frowned while moving his slightly sore hands and feet, unable to know what was going on outside. The situation is bad.

After the rebels leave, they had better leave immediately. If they stay, who knows if they will be arrested as rebels by the army sent by the court, especially since he has a lot of banknotes on him. If he is caught, he must be robbed Then kill them.

Zhao Han nodded and said: "The situation is really bad, but I think the rebels should leave within three days. We will open the secret room in the evening after three days, and then leave Nanyang City. By the way, Wu Zilin, you are planning to go there after you leave Nanyang. This is definitely the place." I can’t stay here anymore, Fanzi and I haven’t traveled far, it’s better for us to go there, it’s safer, and it’s best that such things don’t happen again.”

After hearing Zhao Han's words, Lin Fan also looked at Wu Zilin. Zhao Han's question was correct. He and Zhao Han and Uncle Wu didn't know much about the outside world, and Wu Zilin was a rich man. Lin Fan also heard that Wu Zilin had visited many places. They must be much more familiar than them.

"If it's the safest place to go, it must be the capital city. My elder brother has property in the capital city. That's fine. After we leave here safely, you follow me to the capital city. I'll help you settle down." Wu Zilin paused for a moment. said later.Although the cost of the capital is high, Wu Zilin can still build a small house to accommodate Lin Fan and the others. This is a life-saving grace, and his elder brother will not have any objections.

Wu Zilin is not worried that Lin Fan and the others will not be able to survive, Lin Fan is doing a good job in business, if it is really not a big deal, he will ask his elder brother for help, he is really not bragging, even a piece of scrap iron can be sold by his elder brother For the price of refined iron, it has to be said that Wu Zilin has a blind admiration for his elder brother.

Zhao Han and Lin Fan looked at each other, and Uncle Wu frowned. What Wu Zilin said was indeed true. Relatively speaking, the capital city is the safest, but it was not suitable for their family, especially Fanzi should not be allowed to show up. After all, they It's not ready yet.If Zhao Han and Fanzi are allowed to pass by like this, they will face many unexpected problems, Lin Fan's safety, Zi'an's safety, and Zhao Han is in danger of death, after all, no one knows if the people over there can Accept Zhao Han, maybe because of some marriage or something, Zhao Han and Zian may be killed.

Of course, the capital is so big, they may not encounter it, but Lin Fan will never allow such a potential danger to happen, so the capital is not their first choice.

After a while of silence, Zhao Han invited everyone to have dinner together. Lin Fan watched Zhao Han wipe the dishes with ordinary wine, and thought with blood dripping from his heart that they were too extravagant.

Lin Fan and Wu Zilin sat together, and the two began to chat. Most of them belonged to Brother Wu Zilin. According to what Lin Fan heard, Wu Zilin's brother was involved in everything, and he did everything. There is a style.Lin Fan could tell from Wu Zilin's mouth that the business expert loved Wu Zilin's younger brother very much, just like his older brother loved him back then.

"You said that your brother has dozens of large ships. Are you going to go to sea? I read in the book that it is very profitable to ship goods overseas." Lin Fan turned to look at Wu Zilin and said.

Wu Zilin shook his head and said, "My brother wants to ship the goods overseas. I've also heard that if we ship our tea, silk and porcelain there, we can exchange them for a shipload of gold, silver and precious stones. Let me show you." , The gemstone my brother got from a friend is very beautiful."

As Wu Zilin said, he took a money bag from his waist, and quickly took out a jade-like finger from it. It looked like a ring, but it was very gorgeous. It was inlaid with various precious stones, and the workmanship was very fine. .

Lin Fan took it over and looked at it before saying: "It's really a good thing." Although it doesn't meet Lin Fan's aesthetics, it is indeed very gorgeous and generous. This kind of thing is good for ladies. If it was Lin Fan, he would rather this gorgeous Just leave the dark purple and black rings, and you don't need those colorful gems, they are too colorful and messy, dazzling people's eyes.

"You like to give it to you. I heard from my brother that it will cost at least a few thousand taels of silver. He also asked me to give it to my daughter-in-law in the future. You can give it to Zhao Han and give it to your eldest daughter-in-law in the future." Wu Zilin laughed.

Lin Fan tossed it a few times, then shook his head and said, "You think too much, a gentleman doesn't take away people's love, keep it for your future daughter-in-law. It's useless for our family, Zi'an is still young, Zhao Han never used these things , I might as well give him a dagger for his use."

Wu Zilin glanced at Lin Fan, he admired this kid and said with a smile: "You still don't like it, at least five or six thousand taels, and not everyone can buy it."

"It's not that I don't like it, but it's not practical for me and Zhao Han. If you really want to help me, that's good. After we go out, can you introduce your elder brother for me? I need his help." Lin Fan looked at Wu Zilin and said.

Wu Zilin was stunned and smiled after hearing this: "I thought it was something, but just to see my brother, you just say it, as long as we escape from Nanyang City, I will definitely ask my brother to repay you."

"Don't talk about repayment, you also know that because you are my friend, Zhao Han will save you, I just want to talk to your elder brother, let him take me to do business by the way. Forget about these things, everything will wait for us Besides being able to escape from Nanyang City safely, the rebel army must still be in the city today, if we are found and captured, we will die."

Everyone in the dark secret room was very quiet. Although Lin Fan had repeatedly ensured that no sound from the secret room would be heard, everyone was still very careful, except for Lin Zian here, but with Lin Fan and Zhao Han's company, the little guy Apart from being teased and giggling, Lin Fan always felt that the little guy might gain some fat after eating and sleeping.

Two days passed in a blink of an eye, and it was very quiet outside. Wu Zilin almost told everything about his life over and over again, so whether Lin Fan knew it or not, he kept it in his heart.Brother Wu Zilin's dozens of large ships all transport goods in the inland river, and there are hundreds of small and medium-sized ships.

Lin Fan knew the importance of fast transportation in doing business. As long as they could get on Brother Wu Zilin's boat, the wine they brewed could be sold in all directions, and they would definitely make a lot of money at that time.At that time, if he can cooperate with Brother Wu Zilin to ship goods to sea, it will be a real big business. As long as he earns enough money, he should be able to keep Zhao Han and Zi'an. All this is just a plan in Lin Fan's mind. It will take many years to implement this plan, but for the sake of Zhao Han and Zi'an, he has a lot of patience and will definitely be able to do it.

Just when Lin Fan and Wu Zilin were discussing their plans for the future, the sound of footsteps came from the ground above him that had been quiet for two days. It was the sound of trampling on the snow. It sounds like there are at least five or six people.

Lin Fan and Wu Zilin looked at each other, and they immediately closed their mouths. Zhao Han stretched out his finger and pressed Zian's small mouth, "Hush", the little guy immediately stared at his round eyes, and tried not to make any sound. This game Lin Fan and Zhao Han have been playing with Zian countless times in the past two days, so the little guy immediately quieted down reflexively, and the quiet needle drop can be heard in the secret room at this time.

Uncle Wu sat nervously, there was no sound from outside in the past two days, could it be that the imperial court sent someone here, but it was only two days.After hearing Wu Zilin's analysis, Uncle Wu felt that the imperial army should not have arrived so soon.

Wu Zilin said that after the accident in Nanyang Cheng, he should not be able to get the news until the next day outside. It would take at least one day for the carrier pigeon to deliver it, and it would take four days at the fastest to order the army to come to the capital, so these people must not be Sent by the court.

"This place is on fire, are you sure they live here," a strange voice came from the ground.

"It must be here. I've been here once and I can't remember it wrong. How could it be burned like this? But I recognize these two stone lions. They belong to my fifth younger brother's family," Lin Jingfu said, looking at the gloomy-faced big man beside him.

Soon there was a sound of rustling and heavy objects falling on the ground, and after a while there was another voice: "The captain found three headless corpses, two looked thinner and one was stronger, but they were already dead. It was so charred that it was completely unrecognizable..."

"It should be them, three adults and one child, where is the child's body?" Another voice sounded.

Several people dragged the three charred corpses to the middle of the yard, and the three heads they found were as black as carbon and could not be identified at all.

A man in black said: "There are many lunatics among those rebels, and they only eat that kind of toddler who is only a few months old. I think the child must have been eaten because of his thin skin and tender flesh."

"How do you know?" The leading man asked with disbelief.

The man in black glanced at the leading captain before he said: "I saw the bones of young children on the ground beside the inn in front of them, and they were eaten by people. Besides, I have performed missions in northern Xinjiang, and I know that some people in northern Xinjiang like to eat Human flesh, especially children's."

The men in black frowned after hearing this, but their faces remained expressionless. Only Lin Jingfu started to vomit. It's not like he hasn't seen a corpse before, but he has never seen such a miserable, incomplete corpse. Hearing that Lin Fan's child might have been eaten by someone, Lin Jingfu couldn't help but feel very uncomfortable. Even if he brought someone here now, he would kill someone to silence him.

"Since it has been confirmed that they are dead, we should go back. I don't want to run into the army. The rebel army left Nanyang City in the morning, and the army sent by the imperial court will arrive early tomorrow morning. We have other tasks..." The team leader They didn't care about the corpses on the ground, so they led the team away immediately.

Lin Jingfu originally wanted to open his mouth to collect the corpse of his fifth brother, but seeing these killers leave and looking at the corpses on the ground, he did not dare to stay alone in this dead place. Immediately pull up your legs to keep up, this place is really terrifying.

In the secret room, Zhao Han looked at Lin Fan. Even Uncle Wu had a serious expression on his face. Although Wu Zilin looked puzzled, he didn't speak. At this moment, he knew in his heart that these people were probably here to kill Lin Fan's family.

It's just that Wu Zilin couldn't figure it out. Lin Fan, who just came out of the village to buy medicinal wine, could offend such a big shot. He actually invited a killer from the capital to kill their family. This is really unbelievable. No wonder Lin Fan and Zhao Han refused to go to the capital, if he had such an enemy, he would not dare to go to the capital to die.
