Wearing a mountain village tuff
Chapter 36
Standing at the foot of the snow-covered mountain, looking into the bamboo forest.Emerald bamboos guard the stone steps, and the further you go, the more dim the light becomes.The winter sun can't shine in, and there seems to be some evil beast hiding in the depths of the forest.
The three immediately lowered their bodies.
"Want to take a look?" Ye Baiyou's brows were anxiously focused, and his voice was extremely low.
"Chang'an, go back and call someone!" He Qin pulled Chang'an and pushed him behind, and immediately walked up along with Ye Baiyou's footprints.
Chang'an is cautious when encountering major events.Without hesitation, he quickly ran to the village.
Seeing this, the two clenched the hoes in their hands and followed the footprints upwards.
It only snowed yesterday, and there was no one willing to come to the bamboo forest behind except Ye Baiyou, who came up to dig bamboo shoots on a whim.That's why the lonely pair of footprints on the stone steps is particularly eye-catching.
Ye Baiyou was in front, and He Qin followed.The clear eyes stared at the footprints extending towards the bamboo sea, and quickly went up.
Walk halfway, about halfway up the mountain.The footprints on the stone platform suddenly deviated.
Ye Baiyou panted and supported the bamboo, and the breath he exhaled instantly turned thick white.
"Uncle, can it still work?" Ye Baiyou saw that he was sweating profusely and had reached his limit, "Why don't you wait here for them to come over."
He Qin wiped the sweat from his forehead.
He kept running up, and then he stopped only to realize that the air in his chest seemed to be squeezed dry.He felt nauseated in his throat, dizzy and almost unable to stand still.
He waved his hand at Ye Baiyou weakly, with anxious eyes: "Don't be impulsive."
"Got it!" Ye Baiyou turned around and ran away after speaking.
He often walked up the mountain, and his health gradually improved a lot.It's just that he ran fast just now, and there was a little bloody smell between his breaths.He cared about the child, if it was really a human trafficker, if there was someone to pick him up on the main road, it would be difficult to find the child in the future.
Ye Baiyou pulled the bamboo to borrow strength, and kept stepping.
The piercing fan passed over his face, and his exposed face was already flushed from the cold.Stepping on the snow one by one, the snow foam seeped into the shoes, and the soles of the shoes were already a little wet after a while.
Simply run your body without worrying about catching a cold.
Run from the back hill to the front hill.
The forest is deep and the trees are tall.
Unlike the bamboo forest, there is not so much snow on the front mountain.Ye Baiyou can only judge by the lodging of the grass.
And in the bamboo forest.
He Qin clenched his teeth and sat down slowly while holding the bamboo with both hands.I didn't feel it when I was running, but when I stopped now, I felt uncomfortable for a while.
Vomiting and not being able to vomit, the heartbeat was especially fast, and even the hand holding the bamboo felt weak.
He Qin's face turned pale, almost the same color as the snow on the ground.
Sitting with head bowed like this, after an unknown amount of time, the voice below suddenly became louder.
He Qin opened his eyes and saw his own parents.
"Little Daddy, where's Brother Ye!"
He Qin was overjoyed, and said with a white face: "I've chased him, you guys go!"
More than a dozen men grabbed the knife and quickly separated, leaving Chang'an to guard his little father.
The man walked across the snow, and the snow that was still pressing his feet just now was trampled into flat ground.
"Little Daddy, I'll help you go back."
He Qin leaned on his son's palm, and said slowly: "Take a break, dizzy..."
"But it's cold on the ground!"
Chang An glanced at the ground, quickly grabbed the dry leaves under the white snow and spread them on the ground, supporting He Qin to change positions.
He has a small face, and his voice is tense: "Take a break, we will go back."
-
front mountain.
Ye Baiyou chased after him, and the trace in front was broken.He stopped supporting the book and calmed down for a little breathing.
At this moment, a familiar eagle cry suddenly sounded in the forest.Piercing clouds and cracking stones, like a person who has been fried by a broken bamboo, is instantly clear.
"There are eagles!" The strange voice was right ahead.
Ye Baiyou's heart skipped a beat, and he caught the sound of excitement.
He lowered his body and looked at the sound.Across the thick bushes, the distant scene is still clear.
The speaker was a middle-aged man in a gray ragged jacket.
"Be quiet!"
"What are you afraid of? There are still two children left. Put them in the carriage and leave."
"Hurry up! Watch out for your head if someone is following you!"
"What's the rush! Who told you to hide on such a high mountain, and you have to transport people down. It's easy!"
There are two men in total, one middle-aged and one young.Two men were talking and walking up the hill.
He followed quietly.
After walking for a while, the voice from behind became louder again.
Ye Baiyou immediately turned around and found that it was a man from his own village.They were still in the distance, their burly figures looming.
Ye Baiyou immediately stood up, hid behind the tree, waved to the group of men, and signaled them to lower their voices.
A dozen or so people were aggressive and quickly approached.
The leader is Bai Xiaohe, the second son of Mr. Bai's family.
"There is a carriage to pick them up at the foot of the mountain, and there are two people on the mountain to transfer the last two children." Ye Baiyou hurriedly finished, and Bai Xiaohe directly divided people into two groups, one wave went up the mountain, and the other went down the mountain.
Ye Baiyou looked at the group of people going away, and slowly followed.
Her hair was wet with sweat and stuck to her face, so Ye Baiyou brushed it away with some discomfort.He lagged behind and followed the footsteps of the men to catch up.
Not far away, there is a cave ahead.
The people of the village were in ambush on both sides. When Ye Baiyou arrived, everyone looked at him in unison.
Bai Xiaohe hurriedly waved his hands at him, the creases at the corners of his eyes deepened a little.
Ye Baiyou grabbed her hoe and quietly hid behind the tree.
The cave looked quite big, and the voices of people inside still echoed.
"Old Laizi, after we've done this ticket, I'll take you to the brothel in Fucheng to have a good time, where..."
The two came out side by side, with the child directly on their shoulders.
As soon as the young one came out, he habitually turned his head to see the people on both sides.
He reacted very quickly, threw the child on his shoulders to the ground and ran away.In order to save others, the men all rushed over to use the child as a mat.
The middle-aged one next to the ear was not as flexible as the young one, and was quickly grabbed and pressed to the ground.
Seeing that the situation was wrong, the young man immediately scratched the knife hidden in his clothes behind him, and ran forward desperately.
"catch him!"
"Don't let him run away!"
The two Chinese characters held down the one caught in the front, and the rest chased after them.
Seeing the person approaching him, Ye Baiyou grabbed the hoe and reached out from behind the tree to strike violently.
bang!
"Ah—" The birds in the whole forest howled in alarm.
A hole was cut in the man's forehead, and he staggered to the ground, bleeding.
There was a long scar on the man's face, and his sinister eyes looked like a man-eating beast with the scar on his face.He swung the knife fiercely and slashed at Ye Baiyou.
Ye Baiyou's eyes froze, and she calmly avoided it.
At the same time, the eagle roared in the sky.A black shadow rushed straight down, clawing hard at the young man's face.
"Ah!!" The voice was like a monkey crying in the canyon, and the voice was shrill.
Ye Baiyou took advantage of the opportunity to punch the man's nose in front of the crowd who rushed towards him, and took advantage of the opportunity to pinch his wrist holding the knife and slammed it hard.He lifted his feet up with all his strength.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
The young man fell to the ground in the panic of the middle-aged man, and he rolled between his legs.There were bursts of wailing and crying.
"Hiss..." The men following behind all fell back.
Everyone felt chills in their hearts, and what they looked at was brother's eyes that were as cold as ice.They turned sideways one after another, silently standing with their feet together.
"What are you doing in a daze! Tie it up!" Ye Baiyou slammed down with the hoe again, hitting the back of the person on the ground.
The young man made another hoarse sound, which sounded like weeping.
The people called from the village were all tall, but in front of Ye Baiyou, who was a head short, they looked like a mouse seeing a cat, with timid eyes.
Dude!
Intuit ruthless.He's really fucking capable of being cruel!
Holding down the people on the ground, the eyes of the men were just at the same level as Ye Baiyou's hoe.Another gasp.
The hoe was stained with blood, if it was turned in another direction...
The head might have been chopped off.
So fucking fierce!
Who would dare to marry such a brother...
Anyway, they can be sure that no one in Daquan Village dares to marry.
The two traffickers who were pinned to the ground struggled for a long time, but they couldn't escape the restraints on their bodies.On the other hand, the young man bled so fast that his face was directly dyed red, and his lips turned slightly pale after a while.
Some people looked at it with horror, this life can be lost, but it cannot be lost in their hands.
"Don't worry, I won't die." Ye Baiyou saw that his blood flow had decreased by half, and his eyes were as cold as ice.
Traffickers deserve to die.
"Why didn't the two children wake up?" Ye Baiyou walked over and picked up one of them.
The little boy who was only two or three years old was soft and smelled like milky milk.But now his mouth was white with dryness, and his eyes were tightly shut.
Ye Baiyou kicked the middle-aged man's leg: "What kind of medicine did you use!"
"It's just sweat medicine, sweat medicine!"
Bai Xiaohe is middle-aged, and Ye Baiyou is the only brother he has ever met who is so bold.In the village, whoever was bullied didn't go home and ask a man for help.
If there is a fight, at most they will pull their hair and scratch people.
Seriously, Ye Baiyou can do it now.
"It's not that there is a carriage, go down and see if they have caught anyone." Bai Xiaohe tied the two of them up with a hemp rope, tightening it very tightly, "Send the child to the county to have a look, and we will also crush the traffickers."
The cave was checked, and there was nothing left, so they went down the mountain together.
Ye Baiyou looked up and saw the eagle standing on the tree.He bent his eyes and said, "Thank you."
Xiaobai clearly sensed the change in his attitude, let out a short cry, and flapped his wings excitedly.
Going down the mountain road, the men quickly reached the foot of the mountain under pressure.
Sure enough, there was already a carriage waiting there below.
And Zhao Shangniu, who happened to be called out, was standing below at the moment, holding his little boy and wiping away his tears.
Zhao Sijin had just been arrested, and now he was lying in his father's arms with half-opened eyes.His chin rested on the man's shoulder, and when he saw Ye Baiyou coming down, he smiled weakly and obediently.
The men gathered, there were three traffickers in total.
It was punching and kicking again, cursing and talking.Only the one that was thrown on the ground like a dead pig was brushed over trembling with pain.
Without him, I'm afraid I'll be killed if I fight again.
After venting the sullenness in his heart, Zhao Sijin and a total of five children were quickly sent to the county in a carriage.
The rest of the traffickers were escorted away, waiting for the carriage to return.
Among the three people, one of them was a middle-aged woman.She has an ordinary appearance, she is the kind of woman who can't be seen when she is thrown into the crowd, but will feel that she is living a miserable life.
The other two were able to walk, only the young one could barely walk a few steps, crying out in pain.The tears were big and big, washing away a lot of blood stains on his face.
"What's wrong with this man? He pretends to be stupid and doesn't want to leave, right?"
"Hey! You don't know, it's brother Ye who beat him... he's like this... like this, like this..."
Ye Baiyou's glorious deeds made the men at the foot of the mountain tremble.
"My dear father, I thought it was good, but I never thought it would be even better!"
Everyone sighed in unison.
"Don't provoke him, and hide as far away as you see."
"Husband, no one dares to marry."
"Shut up and keep your voice down!"
"Oh, I whispered..."
-
When the traffickers are sent to the county, the county government should still question them.Ye Baiyou was worried that he would make another trip at that time, so he simply followed them into the county.
In such a case, by the time he returned home with the hoe, it was already dark.
As soon as he opened the door at home, a black shadow suddenly flew over from the sky.
With a flash of subconsciousness, Ye Baiyou heard the voice of the eagle.Exactly the same short sound as this afternoon.
It was so dark that he couldn't see clearly, he only knew that his hand was heavy!
He held it subconsciously, the fluffy, slippery feathers were directly embedded in his arms.
Ye Baiyou was stunned for a moment, then sighed in the darkness: "You said you were playing with me earlier, and you made me fearful for a long time..."
When the words fell, he suddenly felt something was wrong, and looked up.Suddenly, he was stared at by a pair of bright round eyes at the door of the kitchen in the house.
Ye Baiyou felt guilty for some reason, and loosened his hand holding Goshawk.
"Meow! Fu——" The cat's meow full of accusations reached his ears, and Ye Baiyou quickly squatted down and put down the big eagle in his hand.
"Xiao Jing, I'm back!" Pretending to be nothing, he took a few quick steps and looked at those moon-like eyes that were as bright as sixteen.
Ye Baiyou approached Maomao and bent down to hug her: "Xiao Jing has been waiting for a long time. Are you hungry, let me make you something to eat?"
"Meow woo woo! Woo woo!!" Xiao Jing was puffed up, scratching the ground restlessly with her paws.
Smelling the smell of Ye Baiyou's body, Xiao Jing flew over Ye Baiyou's arm with a cat.But he didn't go far, still squatting obliquely in front of Ye Baiyou.
Xiaobai at the back approached Ye Baiyou.
Seeing that it was getting closer, Xiao Jing opened her mouth wide to show her fangs and let out a breath.
Back straight, ready to go.
"What kind of ancestor did I find?" Ye Baiyou turned around, tentatively stopping the big bird, "It's getting late, go back to the tree and sleep."
There was tiredness in his voice: "I'm going to bed too."
I don't know if I understand it, but the eagle stood where it was, and then flew away with its wings.
"Meow—" Xiao Jing looked at the sky with her eyes and called out in a low voice.
Ye Baiyou shook his head, opened the door and lit the oil lamp.The little ancestor still didn't want him to hug him, but he was always one step behind him and followed him every step of the way.
It was late when he came back, and Ye Bai pomelo grass made some food to fill up the Wu Zang Temple, and then packed up and went to his bedroom.
I blew out the oil lamp, and as soon as I lay down, two small round balls lit up in the room.
There was a rustling sound around her, and the bed was heavy.The cat's paw landed on it.
Ye Baiyou fell into a drowsy sleep.
In the dream, he was waving a hoe and digging bamboo shoots, but the bamboo forest seemed to come alive.It approached him with swaying branches and claws, until it wrapped around his mouth and nose.
The chest was so suffocated that it almost exploded.
Ye Baiyou struggled and took a few deep breaths, but it still didn't help.
Seeing that he was about to suffocate to death, his consciousness was suddenly withdrawn from the dream.He sat up abruptly, and the big hairball on his face "slapped" into his arms.
The moon is bright and the stars are sparse outside the window, and the silver-gray moonlight shines in the room.
Ye Baiyou breathed heavily, and it took a long time before she leaned against the head of the bed with lingering fear.The palm of the hand was a "purring purring" cat, its stocky body was undulating in the palm of the hand, and Ye Baiyou slapped it directly.
"Mia!"
"I almost got it all over my head, it's still mia!"
In the past, Xiao Jing's hairball never slept on his face, but tonight, taking advantage of his tiredness and sleeping soundly, he lay directly on his face.
"You still have the mind to sleep! Get up for me, let's reason."
The cat's pupils opened, brightened for a moment and then slowly closed.
Regarding Ye Baiyou's scolding, Xiao Jing just moved her ears.Its ears were pinched, and it rubbed against Ye Baiyou's body again and again, and when there was no other smell, it rolled over, spread out its belly and continued to sleep.
"you!"
Ye Baiyou grabbed the cat's head and fell down again in a fit of anger.
"Stinky cat!"
-
In the early morning, mist surges in the mountains, lingering on the branches covered with dewdrops.
With two bangs, all the dewdrops on the tree fell.With a crackling sound of branches snapping, the tall tree fell down.Immediately afterwards, the guards below picked out the branches and put them on ropes, and transported them to the hinterland of the forest.
Shen Wujing stood in front of a huge cave.
The cave is tens of meters high, as if the entire mountain has been hollowed out.The water in the cave was surging, bottomless, and I didn't know where it was going.
The water vapor filled the air, but there was no light inside, and the darkness exuded a cold air.
"Son."
"Is the boat repaired?"
"Hmm." Shen Wujing stood with her hands behind her back, her gaze fell on the surface of the water and was difficult to discern.
His voice was a bit ethereal: "Then go and have a look."
"Yes!"
"Ask Bai Ming to come to the wooden house." After finishing speaking, Shen Wujing left.
If compared with before, the valley between several mountains seems to be polished by knives.Tens of thousands of square meters of land, with gurgling water, and the eaves turning.Pavilions, terraces and pavilions form a scene in a hundred steps.
But if you look closely, the most eye-catching things are the wooden boats lined up on the open ground next to the cave, and the wooden building hidden behind the mountain less than [-] meters away.
"Little master."
Bai Ming, the chief steward of Shen Wujing's maternal grandfather's family in charge of the water transportation in the south, is now sent by the old man to help him.
"How much money is left in the account?"
"If you don't count the IOU from the Bai family, there is still 320 taels." Bai Ming hugged his hands in front of him, very respectful.
But to be honest, since he was picked up by his grandfather.After following him for 40 to [-] years, this is the first time he has managed several hundred taels of silver.
Shen Wujing raised her hand to rest her forehead.
"Does the commission in the building count?"
"Forget it, but it's still missing."
The little master's original shops were all given to the imperial court by the old man as a gift, otherwise they would be left in his hands quietly.
When he came out, he was penniless, and he suffered so much.Now that he has to support so many subordinates, the little silver they brought over is not enough.
This is the corrupt official taking the opportunity to attack, their old master's shop was also threatened, and even the water transportation he was in charge of was thrown away.
Therefore, even if the son's family wanted to help, they didn't have much spare energy to help.Otherwise, why would the little master shrink into such a remote place.
The old loyal servant Bai Ming felt wronged for his little master.
"How about those properties?" Shen Wujing frowned, her eyes hard to hide her tiredness.
"All of them have been purchased. Although there are obstacles, it is still a success."
"It's just that it may take some time to get back to the book."
"Okay, thank you Uncle Bai." Shen Wujing propped his head on his hands, and frowned.
I thought that Ye Baiyou's favor would be returned soon, but now the building is unable to make ends meet, and he has nothing valuable in his body except for that jade pendant.
How to get it back?
Xiaobai stood on the shelf that he had already replaced with ordinary pine wood and sharpened his claws, staring at Shen Wujing again and again.
Shen Wujing paused, and his eyes fell on it.The lips parted slightly, and the voice was faint: "How about you pay off the debt with your body?"
Xiaobai couldn't understand, but it didn't prevent him from sensing Shen Wujing's emotions.
It fluttered in panic and flew out of the door.
Shen Da and Shen Er who were about to walk to the door were almost slapped by the bird.
"Young Master, you want to repay the debt with your body?" Shen Er immediately slapped his mouth after saying that, "Bah, bah, it's not too bad to promise with your body!"
"It's good to make a promise with your body, at least you won't be too tired to eat." Shen Da looked at the food box he was carrying.
The young master didn't dress well since he was a snack, and they felt wronged when they saw what he ate when he was at Ye Gongzi's house.
But now, holding the meal carefully cooked by the cook, thinking of him eating half a bowl every time...
This……
Hey!
It's better to follow Mr. Ye.Anyway, I won't be unable to eat, right?
"What are you doing at the door?" A hazy voice came from the room.
The two men's faces froze and they walked in.
Inside, the layout is simple.There is only a desk and a stool, plus a bed, wardrobe and bird shelf.empty.
And the original treasures of red sandalwood and purple sand pots were all pawned everywhere.
Every time the people who followed him since childhood came in to watch, they felt very uncomfortable.
Shen Da: "My lord, court food."
Shen Wujing waved his hand. "Eat it yourself."
The son of Xuan Ranxia's aristocratic family lives in the mountains, no matter how poor his life is, it stands to reason that it should be several times better than eating at Ye Baiyou's house.But Shen Wujing's appearance of not knowing how much thinner made their brothers feel even more guilty.
Shen Da consoled: "My lord, eat something."
"Don't eat."
Shen Da bowed his head and said respectfully: "Is the master worrying about Mr. Ye?"
Shen Wujing opened her eyelids, her eyes fell on the top of the two of them. "So what?"
As the pressure in front of him became heavier, Shen Da immediately knelt down and spoke earnestly. "My lord, order is back in the building now, and there are special personnel to take care of each property. It's better for the master to go outside for a while."
"Take it as it is, it's for the sake of your body."
Shen Wujing sneered, the color of her eyes changed, and her whole person was extremely gloomy:
"Outside? Where can I go outside?"
What's the difference between a shrinking head and a shrinking tail, and a rat in the gutter.
Shen Da took a deep breath, plucked up his courage and said, "Since Young Master owes Young Master Ye his life, instead of thinking about how to raise important gifts every day, it is better to go down the mountain now."
"As far as I know, Mr. Ye lives with his elder brother. I don't care if it's safe or not. There is no one to help me with my family's affairs."
Shen Er listened to his brother's words and nodded quickly: "That's right, we can contribute if we don't have money!"
"There are so many people in the village now, I am a man who ran to his brother's house. Why, do you want to force him to death?" Shen Wujing frowned, but she kept thinking about this matter in her heart.
His head throbbing, he closed his eyes abruptly.
Shen Da pushed Shen Er with his elbow.This time, the two brothers had a tacit understanding: "Young master, for saving your life, you should promise it with your body!"
"Brother Ye is [-] years old and still has no husband. No one in Daquan Village dares to marry him!"
"It's better..."
"you!"
Shen Wujing slowly opened her eyes and returned to normal. "Go away, come up with some bad ideas!"
It doesn't matter whether people are willing or not.
He didn't take these words to heart, but a few days later, he suddenly received a letter from his grandfather.
The letter said bluntly: I never thought that my grandson would have a savior.That being the case, grandpa, I just happened to go to help you see each other.
The old man has now retreated behind the scenes, and the affairs of the Bai family should be taken care of by Shen Wujing's uncles.Looking at the contents of the letter now, the old man really wants to come here.
Shen Wujing's eyes darkened and she fainted.
"master!"
Shen Twelve, a doctor in the building, came over to see Shen Wujing and feel his pulse.
"What's the matter?" More than a dozen men gathered around the room, with worries on their rough faces.
In terms of age, the young master is younger than them.
At first it was Madam who picked them up and let them choose to practice martial arts and medicine.In the past, looking at Shen Wujing's rich clothes and fine food, even coming out of the Shen family is not so bad.
At this moment, it is hard work and study.Still can't eat anything!
Such a large group of people, if the young master hadn't asked them to study all the techniques and concentrate on doing things in the building, they would be useful...
"Ugh..."
"Woooo..."
"Why are you crying! You're bothering me!"
The one who spoke was Shen Twelve, the only brother among the guards of the Shen family.She is the youngest, but No.12 was picked up, so she is called Shen Twelve directly.
The men sniffed. "Twelve, how is your son?"
"I can't die, he made it himself."
"I don't eat, and I stay up late, and my brain is used from morning to night. Sooner or later, I will die suddenly. He doesn't necessarily have to take the medicine."
"Then what to do!"
"What to do! Shen Da!"
"Brother, what should we do!"
There was a faint light in Shen Da's eyes: "Ahem!"
"Or, let's do this..."
The author says:
The brothers: "Brother, what should I do!"
Shen Da fully grasped Shen Wujing's insidiousness: "This...such...and this..."
Young Master Shen: "So that's it?"
The three immediately lowered their bodies.
"Want to take a look?" Ye Baiyou's brows were anxiously focused, and his voice was extremely low.
"Chang'an, go back and call someone!" He Qin pulled Chang'an and pushed him behind, and immediately walked up along with Ye Baiyou's footprints.
Chang'an is cautious when encountering major events.Without hesitation, he quickly ran to the village.
Seeing this, the two clenched the hoes in their hands and followed the footprints upwards.
It only snowed yesterday, and there was no one willing to come to the bamboo forest behind except Ye Baiyou, who came up to dig bamboo shoots on a whim.That's why the lonely pair of footprints on the stone steps is particularly eye-catching.
Ye Baiyou was in front, and He Qin followed.The clear eyes stared at the footprints extending towards the bamboo sea, and quickly went up.
Walk halfway, about halfway up the mountain.The footprints on the stone platform suddenly deviated.
Ye Baiyou panted and supported the bamboo, and the breath he exhaled instantly turned thick white.
"Uncle, can it still work?" Ye Baiyou saw that he was sweating profusely and had reached his limit, "Why don't you wait here for them to come over."
He Qin wiped the sweat from his forehead.
He kept running up, and then he stopped only to realize that the air in his chest seemed to be squeezed dry.He felt nauseated in his throat, dizzy and almost unable to stand still.
He waved his hand at Ye Baiyou weakly, with anxious eyes: "Don't be impulsive."
"Got it!" Ye Baiyou turned around and ran away after speaking.
He often walked up the mountain, and his health gradually improved a lot.It's just that he ran fast just now, and there was a little bloody smell between his breaths.He cared about the child, if it was really a human trafficker, if there was someone to pick him up on the main road, it would be difficult to find the child in the future.
Ye Baiyou pulled the bamboo to borrow strength, and kept stepping.
The piercing fan passed over his face, and his exposed face was already flushed from the cold.Stepping on the snow one by one, the snow foam seeped into the shoes, and the soles of the shoes were already a little wet after a while.
Simply run your body without worrying about catching a cold.
Run from the back hill to the front hill.
The forest is deep and the trees are tall.
Unlike the bamboo forest, there is not so much snow on the front mountain.Ye Baiyou can only judge by the lodging of the grass.
And in the bamboo forest.
He Qin clenched his teeth and sat down slowly while holding the bamboo with both hands.I didn't feel it when I was running, but when I stopped now, I felt uncomfortable for a while.
Vomiting and not being able to vomit, the heartbeat was especially fast, and even the hand holding the bamboo felt weak.
He Qin's face turned pale, almost the same color as the snow on the ground.
Sitting with head bowed like this, after an unknown amount of time, the voice below suddenly became louder.
He Qin opened his eyes and saw his own parents.
"Little Daddy, where's Brother Ye!"
He Qin was overjoyed, and said with a white face: "I've chased him, you guys go!"
More than a dozen men grabbed the knife and quickly separated, leaving Chang'an to guard his little father.
The man walked across the snow, and the snow that was still pressing his feet just now was trampled into flat ground.
"Little Daddy, I'll help you go back."
He Qin leaned on his son's palm, and said slowly: "Take a break, dizzy..."
"But it's cold on the ground!"
Chang An glanced at the ground, quickly grabbed the dry leaves under the white snow and spread them on the ground, supporting He Qin to change positions.
He has a small face, and his voice is tense: "Take a break, we will go back."
-
front mountain.
Ye Baiyou chased after him, and the trace in front was broken.He stopped supporting the book and calmed down for a little breathing.
At this moment, a familiar eagle cry suddenly sounded in the forest.Piercing clouds and cracking stones, like a person who has been fried by a broken bamboo, is instantly clear.
"There are eagles!" The strange voice was right ahead.
Ye Baiyou's heart skipped a beat, and he caught the sound of excitement.
He lowered his body and looked at the sound.Across the thick bushes, the distant scene is still clear.
The speaker was a middle-aged man in a gray ragged jacket.
"Be quiet!"
"What are you afraid of? There are still two children left. Put them in the carriage and leave."
"Hurry up! Watch out for your head if someone is following you!"
"What's the rush! Who told you to hide on such a high mountain, and you have to transport people down. It's easy!"
There are two men in total, one middle-aged and one young.Two men were talking and walking up the hill.
He followed quietly.
After walking for a while, the voice from behind became louder again.
Ye Baiyou immediately turned around and found that it was a man from his own village.They were still in the distance, their burly figures looming.
Ye Baiyou immediately stood up, hid behind the tree, waved to the group of men, and signaled them to lower their voices.
A dozen or so people were aggressive and quickly approached.
The leader is Bai Xiaohe, the second son of Mr. Bai's family.
"There is a carriage to pick them up at the foot of the mountain, and there are two people on the mountain to transfer the last two children." Ye Baiyou hurriedly finished, and Bai Xiaohe directly divided people into two groups, one wave went up the mountain, and the other went down the mountain.
Ye Baiyou looked at the group of people going away, and slowly followed.
Her hair was wet with sweat and stuck to her face, so Ye Baiyou brushed it away with some discomfort.He lagged behind and followed the footsteps of the men to catch up.
Not far away, there is a cave ahead.
The people of the village were in ambush on both sides. When Ye Baiyou arrived, everyone looked at him in unison.
Bai Xiaohe hurriedly waved his hands at him, the creases at the corners of his eyes deepened a little.
Ye Baiyou grabbed her hoe and quietly hid behind the tree.
The cave looked quite big, and the voices of people inside still echoed.
"Old Laizi, after we've done this ticket, I'll take you to the brothel in Fucheng to have a good time, where..."
The two came out side by side, with the child directly on their shoulders.
As soon as the young one came out, he habitually turned his head to see the people on both sides.
He reacted very quickly, threw the child on his shoulders to the ground and ran away.In order to save others, the men all rushed over to use the child as a mat.
The middle-aged one next to the ear was not as flexible as the young one, and was quickly grabbed and pressed to the ground.
Seeing that the situation was wrong, the young man immediately scratched the knife hidden in his clothes behind him, and ran forward desperately.
"catch him!"
"Don't let him run away!"
The two Chinese characters held down the one caught in the front, and the rest chased after them.
Seeing the person approaching him, Ye Baiyou grabbed the hoe and reached out from behind the tree to strike violently.
bang!
"Ah—" The birds in the whole forest howled in alarm.
A hole was cut in the man's forehead, and he staggered to the ground, bleeding.
There was a long scar on the man's face, and his sinister eyes looked like a man-eating beast with the scar on his face.He swung the knife fiercely and slashed at Ye Baiyou.
Ye Baiyou's eyes froze, and she calmly avoided it.
At the same time, the eagle roared in the sky.A black shadow rushed straight down, clawing hard at the young man's face.
"Ah!!" The voice was like a monkey crying in the canyon, and the voice was shrill.
Ye Baiyou took advantage of the opportunity to punch the man's nose in front of the crowd who rushed towards him, and took advantage of the opportunity to pinch his wrist holding the knife and slammed it hard.He lifted his feet up with all his strength.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
The young man fell to the ground in the panic of the middle-aged man, and he rolled between his legs.There were bursts of wailing and crying.
"Hiss..." The men following behind all fell back.
Everyone felt chills in their hearts, and what they looked at was brother's eyes that were as cold as ice.They turned sideways one after another, silently standing with their feet together.
"What are you doing in a daze! Tie it up!" Ye Baiyou slammed down with the hoe again, hitting the back of the person on the ground.
The young man made another hoarse sound, which sounded like weeping.
The people called from the village were all tall, but in front of Ye Baiyou, who was a head short, they looked like a mouse seeing a cat, with timid eyes.
Dude!
Intuit ruthless.He's really fucking capable of being cruel!
Holding down the people on the ground, the eyes of the men were just at the same level as Ye Baiyou's hoe.Another gasp.
The hoe was stained with blood, if it was turned in another direction...
The head might have been chopped off.
So fucking fierce!
Who would dare to marry such a brother...
Anyway, they can be sure that no one in Daquan Village dares to marry.
The two traffickers who were pinned to the ground struggled for a long time, but they couldn't escape the restraints on their bodies.On the other hand, the young man bled so fast that his face was directly dyed red, and his lips turned slightly pale after a while.
Some people looked at it with horror, this life can be lost, but it cannot be lost in their hands.
"Don't worry, I won't die." Ye Baiyou saw that his blood flow had decreased by half, and his eyes were as cold as ice.
Traffickers deserve to die.
"Why didn't the two children wake up?" Ye Baiyou walked over and picked up one of them.
The little boy who was only two or three years old was soft and smelled like milky milk.But now his mouth was white with dryness, and his eyes were tightly shut.
Ye Baiyou kicked the middle-aged man's leg: "What kind of medicine did you use!"
"It's just sweat medicine, sweat medicine!"
Bai Xiaohe is middle-aged, and Ye Baiyou is the only brother he has ever met who is so bold.In the village, whoever was bullied didn't go home and ask a man for help.
If there is a fight, at most they will pull their hair and scratch people.
Seriously, Ye Baiyou can do it now.
"It's not that there is a carriage, go down and see if they have caught anyone." Bai Xiaohe tied the two of them up with a hemp rope, tightening it very tightly, "Send the child to the county to have a look, and we will also crush the traffickers."
The cave was checked, and there was nothing left, so they went down the mountain together.
Ye Baiyou looked up and saw the eagle standing on the tree.He bent his eyes and said, "Thank you."
Xiaobai clearly sensed the change in his attitude, let out a short cry, and flapped his wings excitedly.
Going down the mountain road, the men quickly reached the foot of the mountain under pressure.
Sure enough, there was already a carriage waiting there below.
And Zhao Shangniu, who happened to be called out, was standing below at the moment, holding his little boy and wiping away his tears.
Zhao Sijin had just been arrested, and now he was lying in his father's arms with half-opened eyes.His chin rested on the man's shoulder, and when he saw Ye Baiyou coming down, he smiled weakly and obediently.
The men gathered, there were three traffickers in total.
It was punching and kicking again, cursing and talking.Only the one that was thrown on the ground like a dead pig was brushed over trembling with pain.
Without him, I'm afraid I'll be killed if I fight again.
After venting the sullenness in his heart, Zhao Sijin and a total of five children were quickly sent to the county in a carriage.
The rest of the traffickers were escorted away, waiting for the carriage to return.
Among the three people, one of them was a middle-aged woman.She has an ordinary appearance, she is the kind of woman who can't be seen when she is thrown into the crowd, but will feel that she is living a miserable life.
The other two were able to walk, only the young one could barely walk a few steps, crying out in pain.The tears were big and big, washing away a lot of blood stains on his face.
"What's wrong with this man? He pretends to be stupid and doesn't want to leave, right?"
"Hey! You don't know, it's brother Ye who beat him... he's like this... like this, like this..."
Ye Baiyou's glorious deeds made the men at the foot of the mountain tremble.
"My dear father, I thought it was good, but I never thought it would be even better!"
Everyone sighed in unison.
"Don't provoke him, and hide as far away as you see."
"Husband, no one dares to marry."
"Shut up and keep your voice down!"
"Oh, I whispered..."
-
When the traffickers are sent to the county, the county government should still question them.Ye Baiyou was worried that he would make another trip at that time, so he simply followed them into the county.
In such a case, by the time he returned home with the hoe, it was already dark.
As soon as he opened the door at home, a black shadow suddenly flew over from the sky.
With a flash of subconsciousness, Ye Baiyou heard the voice of the eagle.Exactly the same short sound as this afternoon.
It was so dark that he couldn't see clearly, he only knew that his hand was heavy!
He held it subconsciously, the fluffy, slippery feathers were directly embedded in his arms.
Ye Baiyou was stunned for a moment, then sighed in the darkness: "You said you were playing with me earlier, and you made me fearful for a long time..."
When the words fell, he suddenly felt something was wrong, and looked up.Suddenly, he was stared at by a pair of bright round eyes at the door of the kitchen in the house.
Ye Baiyou felt guilty for some reason, and loosened his hand holding Goshawk.
"Meow! Fu——" The cat's meow full of accusations reached his ears, and Ye Baiyou quickly squatted down and put down the big eagle in his hand.
"Xiao Jing, I'm back!" Pretending to be nothing, he took a few quick steps and looked at those moon-like eyes that were as bright as sixteen.
Ye Baiyou approached Maomao and bent down to hug her: "Xiao Jing has been waiting for a long time. Are you hungry, let me make you something to eat?"
"Meow woo woo! Woo woo!!" Xiao Jing was puffed up, scratching the ground restlessly with her paws.
Smelling the smell of Ye Baiyou's body, Xiao Jing flew over Ye Baiyou's arm with a cat.But he didn't go far, still squatting obliquely in front of Ye Baiyou.
Xiaobai at the back approached Ye Baiyou.
Seeing that it was getting closer, Xiao Jing opened her mouth wide to show her fangs and let out a breath.
Back straight, ready to go.
"What kind of ancestor did I find?" Ye Baiyou turned around, tentatively stopping the big bird, "It's getting late, go back to the tree and sleep."
There was tiredness in his voice: "I'm going to bed too."
I don't know if I understand it, but the eagle stood where it was, and then flew away with its wings.
"Meow—" Xiao Jing looked at the sky with her eyes and called out in a low voice.
Ye Baiyou shook his head, opened the door and lit the oil lamp.The little ancestor still didn't want him to hug him, but he was always one step behind him and followed him every step of the way.
It was late when he came back, and Ye Bai pomelo grass made some food to fill up the Wu Zang Temple, and then packed up and went to his bedroom.
I blew out the oil lamp, and as soon as I lay down, two small round balls lit up in the room.
There was a rustling sound around her, and the bed was heavy.The cat's paw landed on it.
Ye Baiyou fell into a drowsy sleep.
In the dream, he was waving a hoe and digging bamboo shoots, but the bamboo forest seemed to come alive.It approached him with swaying branches and claws, until it wrapped around his mouth and nose.
The chest was so suffocated that it almost exploded.
Ye Baiyou struggled and took a few deep breaths, but it still didn't help.
Seeing that he was about to suffocate to death, his consciousness was suddenly withdrawn from the dream.He sat up abruptly, and the big hairball on his face "slapped" into his arms.
The moon is bright and the stars are sparse outside the window, and the silver-gray moonlight shines in the room.
Ye Baiyou breathed heavily, and it took a long time before she leaned against the head of the bed with lingering fear.The palm of the hand was a "purring purring" cat, its stocky body was undulating in the palm of the hand, and Ye Baiyou slapped it directly.
"Mia!"
"I almost got it all over my head, it's still mia!"
In the past, Xiao Jing's hairball never slept on his face, but tonight, taking advantage of his tiredness and sleeping soundly, he lay directly on his face.
"You still have the mind to sleep! Get up for me, let's reason."
The cat's pupils opened, brightened for a moment and then slowly closed.
Regarding Ye Baiyou's scolding, Xiao Jing just moved her ears.Its ears were pinched, and it rubbed against Ye Baiyou's body again and again, and when there was no other smell, it rolled over, spread out its belly and continued to sleep.
"you!"
Ye Baiyou grabbed the cat's head and fell down again in a fit of anger.
"Stinky cat!"
-
In the early morning, mist surges in the mountains, lingering on the branches covered with dewdrops.
With two bangs, all the dewdrops on the tree fell.With a crackling sound of branches snapping, the tall tree fell down.Immediately afterwards, the guards below picked out the branches and put them on ropes, and transported them to the hinterland of the forest.
Shen Wujing stood in front of a huge cave.
The cave is tens of meters high, as if the entire mountain has been hollowed out.The water in the cave was surging, bottomless, and I didn't know where it was going.
The water vapor filled the air, but there was no light inside, and the darkness exuded a cold air.
"Son."
"Is the boat repaired?"
"Hmm." Shen Wujing stood with her hands behind her back, her gaze fell on the surface of the water and was difficult to discern.
His voice was a bit ethereal: "Then go and have a look."
"Yes!"
"Ask Bai Ming to come to the wooden house." After finishing speaking, Shen Wujing left.
If compared with before, the valley between several mountains seems to be polished by knives.Tens of thousands of square meters of land, with gurgling water, and the eaves turning.Pavilions, terraces and pavilions form a scene in a hundred steps.
But if you look closely, the most eye-catching things are the wooden boats lined up on the open ground next to the cave, and the wooden building hidden behind the mountain less than [-] meters away.
"Little master."
Bai Ming, the chief steward of Shen Wujing's maternal grandfather's family in charge of the water transportation in the south, is now sent by the old man to help him.
"How much money is left in the account?"
"If you don't count the IOU from the Bai family, there is still 320 taels." Bai Ming hugged his hands in front of him, very respectful.
But to be honest, since he was picked up by his grandfather.After following him for 40 to [-] years, this is the first time he has managed several hundred taels of silver.
Shen Wujing raised her hand to rest her forehead.
"Does the commission in the building count?"
"Forget it, but it's still missing."
The little master's original shops were all given to the imperial court by the old man as a gift, otherwise they would be left in his hands quietly.
When he came out, he was penniless, and he suffered so much.Now that he has to support so many subordinates, the little silver they brought over is not enough.
This is the corrupt official taking the opportunity to attack, their old master's shop was also threatened, and even the water transportation he was in charge of was thrown away.
Therefore, even if the son's family wanted to help, they didn't have much spare energy to help.Otherwise, why would the little master shrink into such a remote place.
The old loyal servant Bai Ming felt wronged for his little master.
"How about those properties?" Shen Wujing frowned, her eyes hard to hide her tiredness.
"All of them have been purchased. Although there are obstacles, it is still a success."
"It's just that it may take some time to get back to the book."
"Okay, thank you Uncle Bai." Shen Wujing propped his head on his hands, and frowned.
I thought that Ye Baiyou's favor would be returned soon, but now the building is unable to make ends meet, and he has nothing valuable in his body except for that jade pendant.
How to get it back?
Xiaobai stood on the shelf that he had already replaced with ordinary pine wood and sharpened his claws, staring at Shen Wujing again and again.
Shen Wujing paused, and his eyes fell on it.The lips parted slightly, and the voice was faint: "How about you pay off the debt with your body?"
Xiaobai couldn't understand, but it didn't prevent him from sensing Shen Wujing's emotions.
It fluttered in panic and flew out of the door.
Shen Da and Shen Er who were about to walk to the door were almost slapped by the bird.
"Young Master, you want to repay the debt with your body?" Shen Er immediately slapped his mouth after saying that, "Bah, bah, it's not too bad to promise with your body!"
"It's good to make a promise with your body, at least you won't be too tired to eat." Shen Da looked at the food box he was carrying.
The young master didn't dress well since he was a snack, and they felt wronged when they saw what he ate when he was at Ye Gongzi's house.
But now, holding the meal carefully cooked by the cook, thinking of him eating half a bowl every time...
This……
Hey!
It's better to follow Mr. Ye.Anyway, I won't be unable to eat, right?
"What are you doing at the door?" A hazy voice came from the room.
The two men's faces froze and they walked in.
Inside, the layout is simple.There is only a desk and a stool, plus a bed, wardrobe and bird shelf.empty.
And the original treasures of red sandalwood and purple sand pots were all pawned everywhere.
Every time the people who followed him since childhood came in to watch, they felt very uncomfortable.
Shen Da: "My lord, court food."
Shen Wujing waved his hand. "Eat it yourself."
The son of Xuan Ranxia's aristocratic family lives in the mountains, no matter how poor his life is, it stands to reason that it should be several times better than eating at Ye Baiyou's house.But Shen Wujing's appearance of not knowing how much thinner made their brothers feel even more guilty.
Shen Da consoled: "My lord, eat something."
"Don't eat."
Shen Da bowed his head and said respectfully: "Is the master worrying about Mr. Ye?"
Shen Wujing opened her eyelids, her eyes fell on the top of the two of them. "So what?"
As the pressure in front of him became heavier, Shen Da immediately knelt down and spoke earnestly. "My lord, order is back in the building now, and there are special personnel to take care of each property. It's better for the master to go outside for a while."
"Take it as it is, it's for the sake of your body."
Shen Wujing sneered, the color of her eyes changed, and her whole person was extremely gloomy:
"Outside? Where can I go outside?"
What's the difference between a shrinking head and a shrinking tail, and a rat in the gutter.
Shen Da took a deep breath, plucked up his courage and said, "Since Young Master owes Young Master Ye his life, instead of thinking about how to raise important gifts every day, it is better to go down the mountain now."
"As far as I know, Mr. Ye lives with his elder brother. I don't care if it's safe or not. There is no one to help me with my family's affairs."
Shen Er listened to his brother's words and nodded quickly: "That's right, we can contribute if we don't have money!"
"There are so many people in the village now, I am a man who ran to his brother's house. Why, do you want to force him to death?" Shen Wujing frowned, but she kept thinking about this matter in her heart.
His head throbbing, he closed his eyes abruptly.
Shen Da pushed Shen Er with his elbow.This time, the two brothers had a tacit understanding: "Young master, for saving your life, you should promise it with your body!"
"Brother Ye is [-] years old and still has no husband. No one in Daquan Village dares to marry him!"
"It's better..."
"you!"
Shen Wujing slowly opened her eyes and returned to normal. "Go away, come up with some bad ideas!"
It doesn't matter whether people are willing or not.
He didn't take these words to heart, but a few days later, he suddenly received a letter from his grandfather.
The letter said bluntly: I never thought that my grandson would have a savior.That being the case, grandpa, I just happened to go to help you see each other.
The old man has now retreated behind the scenes, and the affairs of the Bai family should be taken care of by Shen Wujing's uncles.Looking at the contents of the letter now, the old man really wants to come here.
Shen Wujing's eyes darkened and she fainted.
"master!"
Shen Twelve, a doctor in the building, came over to see Shen Wujing and feel his pulse.
"What's the matter?" More than a dozen men gathered around the room, with worries on their rough faces.
In terms of age, the young master is younger than them.
At first it was Madam who picked them up and let them choose to practice martial arts and medicine.In the past, looking at Shen Wujing's rich clothes and fine food, even coming out of the Shen family is not so bad.
At this moment, it is hard work and study.Still can't eat anything!
Such a large group of people, if the young master hadn't asked them to study all the techniques and concentrate on doing things in the building, they would be useful...
"Ugh..."
"Woooo..."
"Why are you crying! You're bothering me!"
The one who spoke was Shen Twelve, the only brother among the guards of the Shen family.She is the youngest, but No.12 was picked up, so she is called Shen Twelve directly.
The men sniffed. "Twelve, how is your son?"
"I can't die, he made it himself."
"I don't eat, and I stay up late, and my brain is used from morning to night. Sooner or later, I will die suddenly. He doesn't necessarily have to take the medicine."
"Then what to do!"
"What to do! Shen Da!"
"Brother, what should we do!"
There was a faint light in Shen Da's eyes: "Ahem!"
"Or, let's do this..."
The author says:
The brothers: "Brother, what should I do!"
Shen Da fully grasped Shen Wujing's insidiousness: "This...such...and this..."
Young Master Shen: "So that's it?"
