Lucky husband

After walking in the forest for an unknown amount of time, the sunlight gradually became less glaring.

At this time, Bai Zhiwen's inner thigh was already in severe pain, and Li Mingjin and Li Qiusheng's legs also began to ache. They all endured it and said nothing.

It is not clear what the purpose of these two people arresting them is, so they cannot show emotions such as fear, tension, and worry.

After such a long time, Li Qiusheng still had no strength in his hands and feet, and every time he bumped on the horseback, he would flinch involuntarily.

Just now, when Lin Cheng adjusted the two of them from lying on horseback to riding on horseback, he very thoughtfully tied Li Qiusheng's hands around Li Mingjin's waist. To prevent them from escaping, the two were tied together, and it was not easy to escape.

So even though Li Mingjin was uncomfortable being hugged by Li Qiusheng, he endured without saying a word, trying to relax himself and not pass on his nervousness to Li Qiusheng.

Before it was completely dark, the group of them finally saw a relatively flat hillside with no tree cover. Halfway up the hillside, wood chips were used as a fence, and there were some grass houses built of wood and straw on the top of the hill. It looks very simple.

Wang Shan ran a dead horse, and it seemed that the distance was quite close. In fact, they walked for a long time to arrive, and it was completely dark at this time.

After approaching, both Li Mingjin and Bai Zhiwen heard the cries of a group of children coming from above. They looked at each other and started to be more vigilant at the same time.

When they arrived at their own chassis, Daliangtou and Lin Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, and Daliangtou quickly walked a few steps to open the gate of the cottage.

Lin Cheng turned around and said to the three children who were still on the horse: "We've arrived at the cottage, do you want to get off your horse and go in, or go in on your horse?"

Bai Zhiwen couldn't feel his legs right now. He looked up and said expressionlessly, "I'll go in on a horse."

Li Mingjin was similar, he endured the pain and said, "We also ride horses."

Lin Cheng smiled: "Haha, your legs must be hurting now, let the doctor in our cottage show you later, it's best to apply some plaster, and it will be fine soon."

Li Mingjin, Bai Zhiwen, and Li Caoye: "..."

When they arrived at this inexplicable cottage, they were not in the mood to laugh.

Lin Cheng saw that the faces of the children were so sullen, he felt a little interesting for no reason, shook his head and said nothing.

Everyone should be here by now, and after a while, Daliang Tou will ask everyone to call the children they brought back together, and have something to say to them.

With stiff legs, Li Mingjin and the others rode on horses, passed the torches lit in the village, and looked at the cottage as they walked.

What is more obvious is that this cottage has just been repaired, and the wooden fence on the outermost perimeter of the cottage and the wood used for the grass house inside look very new.

Not to mention new, the workmanship is still very rough, there are cracks on the exposed pillars of the house, the straw on the roof has been blown away by the wind, and some houses can directly see the night sky.

It is because it is summer now, and the night is not so cold, otherwise, if you sleep in such a room, you may get a cold the next morning.

Every time he passed by a thatched house, Bai Zhiwen would take a look inside, and he found that these houses had one thing in common—there were beds inside, just like the Chase bunk in an inn.

Speaking of which, after entering this cottage, apart from seeing a few gatekeepers and patrolling people at the gate, Li Mingjin and the others did not see a single person after walking for so long. The huge cottage felt empty.

After it was completely dark, the cries of the children in the cottage became more obvious and louder. Daliang frowned and said to Lin Cheng: "Chengzi, take them to eat, I'll go ahead and see what's going on." Something happened."

Lin Cheng nodded: "OK."

With only Lin Cheng missing, there was only Lin Cheng left, and it was a good time to talk, Bai Zhiwen started to find a topic: "I just saw something was spilled outside the fence in your cottage, what is it?"

Lin Cheng's personality is relatively straightforward, and he relaxed a lot when he returned to the village. The question Bai Zhiwen asked was not confidential, so he said carelessly: "Some are the feces of wild beasts, and there are insect repellent powders. There are a lot of rats, and if you don’t take care of these little things, you won’t be able to sleep well. Don’t worry, insect repellent powder has been sprinkled around every house, so you don’t have to worry about sleeping at night.”

After the beginning, Bai Zhiwen asked a few more irrelevant questions, and then he began to ask tentatively: "I haven't seen any land with grain or vegetables along the way, what do the people in your cottage eat?"

Without thinking too much, Lin Cheng opened his mouth and said, "The food is bought from outside. If you want to eat meat, you can go hunting in the woods outside..."

Both Li Mingjin and Bai Zhiwen focused on listening to Lin Cheng's words. At this moment, Liangtou appeared again with a lamp: "Chengzi!"

After Lin Cheng was interrupted, he immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing, so he shut up quickly.

Daliang turned around and said to Bai Zhiwen: "That's enough, boy, I will take the initiative to ask the question you want to ask later, there is no need to try it out, now you guys eat first, I can't starve you."

Bai Zhiwen wasn't embarrassed by being caught, but his face was slightly stiff, and he sat motionless on the horseback.

It was the first time he rode a horse on a rugged mountain road. After riding for so long, not only did Bai Zhiwen's legs hurt, his waist was also stiff, his hands were sore, and he dared not move.

Looking at him like that, Daliang knew what was going on, stepped forward and lifted him off the horse, and untied the rope from his hand by the way.

After being stiff all afternoon, any part of his body hurt badly when he moved. Bai Zhiwen gritted his teeth tightly so as not to cry out, but the expression on his face would definitely not be so pleasing to the eye.

Bai Zhiwen felt extremely embarrassed, and after he stood still, he quietly raised his head to look at Li Mingjin, and found that Li Mingjin's expression was also colorful, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and decided that he must exercise well when he went back, and this situation should not happen again.

At this time, Li Mingjin was not in the mood to pay attention to how Bai Zhiwen was doing. When his legs stood on the ground again, he suspected that they were not his legs, so he tried his best not to shout out. .

It was completely dark at this time, and the people in Shanghe Village had already eaten, washed and prepared to go to bed at this time on weekdays. The stomachs of the three of them were growling with hunger. Desire made them temporarily ignore the pain in their legs, and walked quickly behind Lin Cheng.

The so-called eating place is a shed with a few simple tables. There are two earthen stoves and a large chopping board next to it. Daliang Tou looked at the three children with hideous faces walking behind him, and touched his nose: "You guys Eat first, and I'll pick you up after a while."

After explaining this sentence, Daliang Tou dragged Lin Cheng away, so that Lin Cheng would not be fooled by these kids again.

The master who was in charge of the spoon was very round. He looked happily at the three children who hadn't been crying all the time since they came here: "Go and sit down, you can eat right away."

The meal is a big pot of rice that has been prepared long ago. It is not particularly rich, but it is not bad. A large bowl of taro roast chicken, a portion of vegetarian fried lotus root, plus three big bowls of rice, if it is not enough, you can add more.

Since taro was found to be edible, it has gradually appeared on everyone's table more and more frequently, and steamed, fried and fried have been tried all over the place.

The craftsmanship of the master chef is average, but because of the long stewing time, the aroma of chicken has been incorporated into the taro, which tastes rich and silky, and they eat it with chopsticks when they are hungry.

After sacrificing the internal organs and eating, the hungry few touched their stomachs and put down their chopsticks. Li Mingjin and Bai Zhiwen looked at each other with a smile, and said with some embarrassment: "Brother Bai, if you weren't by my side, I would wake up this afternoon. You will definitely be in a panic when you come here, you rushed here to save us, thank you."

At that time, Li Mingjin calmed down so quickly, not only because of the stories his father told him, but also because of the presence of someone he knew, Bai Zhiwen. He saw that Bai Zhiwen was awake and safe, so he was not so afraid.

"Brother Jin, can I call you that?" Bai Zhiwen looked at Li Mingjin's smile and asked in a strange way.

It's just a title, Li Mingjin didn't care at all: "Yes."

Li Mingjin didn't notice anything was wrong, but Li Caoye, who was sitting next to him without speaking, frowned and looked at the two of them.

"There's nothing to thank. I didn't have any effect. If only I had called a few more adults to come and help." Speaking of this, Bai Zhiwen's face was a little reddish, and he couldn't see it under the dim light of the oil lamp. obvious.

Bai Zhiwen himself felt uncomfortable, so he quickly changed the subject: "There are weird things everywhere in this cottage, have you noticed anything?"

Li Mingjin nodded: "Yes, since I approached this cottage, I have heard a lot of people crying. Are there many children on this mountain?"

"Seeing that their houses are all newly built, they are very simple, and they don't look like they have lived here for a long time. Could they be the kind of flirts who specialize in abducting children?" Li Mingjin suddenly thought of this possibility.

"Probably not." Bai Zhiwen shook his head, "It feels like they are being very polite to us."

At this time, Lin Cheng's voice suddenly appeared behind the three of them: "Hey, stop guessing."

Lin Cheng is a martial arts practitioner, he deliberately restrained his movements, and none of the three people sitting and talking at the table heard his footsteps, and were greatly taken aback.

Looking at the three little guys who were still in shock, Lin Cheng found it quite interesting: "Haha, you look like a little child like this. You have been sullen in the afternoon, and one or two have become little old men."

Standing up the three children, Lin Cheng mentioned the lamp he put outside the shed, and called them: "Come with me, you can ask anything you want to know later."

As soon as Li Mingjin's legs and feet touched the ground, he felt soreness, numbness and pain all the way up with his toes, and the one who couldn't stand still watched him fall backwards.

Bai Zhiwen was next to Li Mingjin, and he reached out to support Li Mingjin's waist.

Li Caoye's expression froze, and without a word he suddenly stepped forward to support Li Mingjin, and the two limped along with Lin Cheng, leaving Bai Zhiwen behind.

Bai Zhiwen touched his nose, why did he feel like he was rejected.
