The room was silent? After a while, it was still the deep voice: "I am the guide. Can you bring in the peony seal and let me have a look?"

Hearing this, Cen Zhu hesitated for a moment, pulled out the peony jade pendant from his neck, lowered his head and took it off, held it in his hand, and walked slowly into the door.

Li Jingchen watched her go in, tied the horse to a nearby tree, stood under the tree and waited, his palms were so nervous that he sweated.

It's just that she didn't expect that not long after Cen Zhu entered the door, the single wooden door suddenly closed with a "bang", and then there was the sound of fighting and screaming inside, her heart suddenly hung up, and she was stunned for a moment. , realized that the situation had changed, and was about to go to the front to find out.At this moment, the horse behind her neighed suddenly. She turned her head and saw two hairy kids who had untied the reins and were struggling to pull the horse out of nowhere.

"What are you doing?!"

She asked sharply, which frightened the two children.One of the children held a slingshot in his hand and shot at Li Jingchen, trying to cover his companions and go first.But the two half-grown children were too panicked? They couldn't move the lazy beast.

Until another older child turned out from the window of the wooden house, clapped his hands towards the window, took a string of necklace-like things from inside, and ran over to join them.

"Boss!"

Those two children looked at him as if they were saved, but they were reprimanded by him face to face, "Why are they so useless, even a horse can't solve it? How can they do great things in the future!"

"We..." The three children looked at Li Jingchen together. Li Jingchen saw that the "boss" had a flat face, small eyes, a flat nose and a big mouth. There was nothing outstanding about his appearance, but he wore such a She had seen a blue scarf before, and suddenly remembered that there was such a person among the group of children who spat at the carriage in Piyang City.My heart sank involuntarily.

"Are you afraid of her? What is there to be afraid of a flirt? Take the horse away first, and I'll finish it off."

The boy in the blue scarf issued the order confidently. The two children behind him seemed to have gained confidence. I lost my foot.

Hearing the boy's rude words, Li Jingchen thought of teaching him a lesson.Standing in the same place calmly, waiting for the blue scarf boy to approach, when he slapped the wind fiercely, he used a trick to catch his arm behind his back, the blue scarf boy twisted half a circle, with an awkward He leaned back and screamed "Aoao" in pain.

He didn't expect that Li Jingchen, who seemed weak and weak, would have such a move. Once she restrained him, he twisted and struggled angrily: "Let me go! Let me go!" Go up? Power? Road, cold voice: "Bring the jade pendant!"

"What jade pendant? Ah——"

The boy screamed, his face twisted into a ball in pain.

"You put it in your arms just now. Bring it!"

"Oh! I'll take it, I'll take it! It's awkward, it's awkward, and the arm is broken!"

Li Jingchen let go of one of his hands, giving him a chance to get the pendant.The child turned to face him, slurped his throat suddenly, leaned his neck back, and made a movement of spitting with all his strength.

Li Jing's eyelids twitched, and she instinctively dodged sideways, but was still splashed by his saliva on her sleeves, a look of disgust appeared between her brows.She pulled the sleeve decisively, and with a "squeak", half of the sleeve was torn off by her on the spot.The blue scarf boy wanted to take the opportunity to escape, but before he could step out, he lay flat on the ground. It turned out that when Li Jingchen dodged, one foot stepped on the heel of his straw sandal.

This kid king suddenly fell down, and before he had time to react, his arms were clasped again. Li Jingzhe put his knees against his waist, and the torn fabric just tied his hands from behind, and he pulled up by the back collar. , glanced at the two stunned friends, and shouted coldly: "Tie the horse back!"

"Don't listen to her, you go down the mountain quickly, call the adults, and say that I was beaten to death by these two profiteers, and let them avenge me!" The blue scarf child? The hatred was literally written on his face.Li Jingchen couldn't help but think of Cen Zhuan's teasing before, the phrase "I wish I could eat them?" was the child's expression now, and I couldn't help feeling chills.

Enduring the coldness of her teeth, she took out the peony jade pendant from the boy's arms, pushed him in front of the two children, and ignored them.Walking straight to the cabin, the fighting in the room had stopped, and Cen Zhuo didn't come out for some reason.

When he reached the door, he met a disheveled man, Li Jingzhu took a closer look, who is it not Cen Zhu?I saw that her whole body was covered with a layer of soil, like a gray-white clay figurine, only two eyes were exposed on her face, and the original skin could still be seen.

Seeing her in a mess, Li Jingchen expected her to be hit by an ambush, his eyes were as cold as ice.On Cen Zhu's arm was an eight|nine-year-old child, who was as gray as her.Before Li Jingchen could react, he said eagerly:

"Quick, where is the water? Lime powder got into this kid's eyes, and he's probably going to be blind!"

Behind her was an eleven or twelve-year-old child with a red scarf on his head, who seemed to be in the same group as the three who snatched the horse.Hearing her words, he was flustered for a moment, "little hedgehog, little hedgehog" had to call the companion in Cen Zhu's arms.

Li Jingchen remembered that there was a water bag on the horse, and hurriedly turned around to get it, but there was no sign of the horse.It turned out that after the child king wearing the blue scarf was pushed away by her, he immediately asked his two companions to help him untie, climbed on the horse and ran away? Before leaving, he even ordered his companions to be here as "hostages", so that he would have a reason to go down the mountain Go find an adult and teach these two "profiteers" a lesson.

Li Jingchen didn't expect a ten-year-old child to have such scheming, now that there is no water, the eyes of this innocent child may be more or less ominous.

Seeing Li Jing's expression, Cen Zhu knew that something was wrong, and asked the remaining children present with a glimmer of hope, "Do you know where there is water nearby?"

A child who was left as a "hostage" hurried over and said, "I know, there is a cold pool behind the mountain, and there is water there."

"Okay, take me there!"

Cen Zhu didn't care to say anything more, hugged the child named "Little Hedgehog", and ran through the woods to the edge of the cold pool.Seeing a layer of water vapor floating on the surface of the pool, it seemed to be transpiring. When I tested the temperature of the water, I found it was freezing to the bone.She was very surprised that there was such a cold pool on the mountain in this scorching summer, which probably had something to do with the fact that the top of Daman Mountain was covered with ice and snow all the year round.

Cen Zhu put the child by the edge of the cold pool and asked him, "Does it still hurt?"

He nodded, subconsciously raised his hand to rub his eyes, but was held down by Cen Zhu.I remember Gu Qing once said that if lime powder got in? Do not rub your eyes with your hands, let alone wash them with water. You must first clean out the powder and then rinse with water.Otherwise the lime and water will heat up and burn your eyes.

"Don't open your eyes!" Mr. Cen Zhuo helped the little boy wash off the lime powder on his face.Li Jingyu cooperated and gave her the gauze covering his face. Cen Zhu folded it into a pointed horn shape, and gently opened the boy's left eye with his thumb and forefinger, and cleaned it with a corner of the gauze. The powder in the boy’s eyes, he cleaned it up and said: “Your name is little hedgehog, right? I’m going to help you clean up the lime in your eyes now. Don’t be afraid, it’s temporary that you can’t see things clearly. Wait until it’s cleaned up? It will be fine after a while? Don't cry and don't shed tears, men don't cry easily."

The other children held their breath and watched nervously, especially the "accidental injury"? The red scarf boy who was his companion clenched his fists guiltily, for fear that the little hedgehog would be blinded by it.

Seeing the water in his eyes, Li Jingchen thought of himself when he was young for some reason, so she patted the boy's shoulder to express his comfort.The teardrops of the boy in the red scarf could not hold back and fell out, and silently wiped them away with his sleeve.

After helping the little hedgehog clean up the lime powder on the surface of the eyeball, Cen Zhu secretly sighed that fortunately not many entered, otherwise the eyeball would really be lost.

"When you rinse, if your eyes feel hot, just say so, you know?"

"Ah."

She found that the child was very quiet and obedient, and he would follow what others said, but his reaction was a little slow, otherwise he would not be accidentally injured by his companion's lime powder.

The cleaning time lasted for a quarter of an hour, and at the end, Cen Zhu couldn't even stretch his hands straight.The boy's eyes were still dark, so she covered his eyes with a scarf.After finishing all this work, Li Jingzhu hurriedly took her to the sun to warm her hands.

Cen Zhu smiled and said it was all right, and took this opportunity to explain to her what happened in the wooden house.

It was almost as expected by Li Jingchen. They were hit? An ambush set by these little devils.I don't know where they got the news. Knowing that they were going up the mountain, they took a small path and came here in advance to set up an ambush.By the time Cen Zhu realized that the matter was fraudulent, the other party had already snatched it from under her nose? The peony jade pendant, and used it? Lime powder to stop her from pursuing it. Worse than this little hedgehog.

"Hey, are you okay now? Not only did you not find a guide, you even lost the peony jade pendant?" Cen Zhu couldn't help but look disappointed.

Hearing this, Li Jingyan took out the silver silk jade pendant from his bosom and handed it back to her. Cen Zhuo's eyes lit up, "You snatched it back? How did you snatch it?"

She briefly talked about her experience of fighting the blue scarf boy outside the house.Once the information from the two sides was gathered, both of them felt that this child was good? No, such a careful plan can be carried out at a young age.But Cen Zhu was very curious, so he asked those children: "Can you tell me, why are you here pretending to be guides and snatching our jade pendant and horse?"

After the little hedgehog incident, these children's impression of her has changed, and they are not so hostile to her, but it is not necessarily very good.

A "hostage" boy said: "You took the boss' brother into a prison and beat him half to death. The boss said that he took us up the mountain this time to avenge his brother and the villagers."

Cen Zhu understood in an instant, and thought it was funny, "You have to speak with conscience. We didn't beat him half to death, but he stole our carriage and violated the law. He deserves to be punished and go to jail."

That kid? It seemed like he wanted to argue, but the red scarf boy stopped him.He seemed to be somewhat prestige among these children, and bit his lips and said to them: "This time you saved? Little hedgehog, we owe you a kindness. From now on, our past grievances will be wiped out. "The little hedgehog also said: "Second brother is right, I don't think they are bad people, otherwise they wouldn't help me cure my eyes? Let's not embarrass them."

"What if the elder brother refuses to agree?"

"Don't worry, I'll convince him to agree." With the promise from the red scarf boy, the rest of the friends were relieved.Cen Zhuo and Li Jingzhu looked at each other? After a while, both of them were speechless.

After a while, "Let's go, let's go back to the cabin to see if the guide is here? Are you going down the mountain directly, or are you with us?"

"Let's go down the mountain by ourselves."

"Okay. Let's leave it at that. Don't forget, go back and ask your boss to return the horse, or I'll charge you guys for theft."

The teenagers were ashamed and angry, but there was nothing they could do about her.Cen Zhu smiled nonchalantly. To these little guys who made her feel embarrassed, can't I say? I can't say I like it? I hate it.In short, they have more important things to do now, and they have no time to waste time with them.
