The maid lying on the side covered her throat and coughed vigorously, the redness on the corners of her eyes gradually deepened with her coughing, and the appearance of the pear blossoms raining, if other men would have stepped forward to comfort them in distress, but Mu Hancai and Liu Hanshu did not agree Impressed.

"Who is that, you watch the night tonight, if I catch you and run away..."

Mu Han squinted at the bandit. Although he didn't finish his sentence, the bandit already understood him very well. He shivered, "The villain will definitely watch the night and won't run away!"

After finishing speaking, the bandit stood up with the support of the tree, and then walked to a place not far away to stand.

"Young master, I'm telling the truth, why did you treat me like this?"

Seeing that they were ignoring her, the servant girl immediately pursed her lips and asked.

With a swipe, a sword was directly inserted into the three-inch length of the maid, making her tremble like chaff in fright.

"I don't want to hear another word from you, understand?"

Mu Hancai's words made the servant girl nod suddenly, and after the opponent drew back the sword, her legs were weak and she limped into the carriage.

Liu Hanwen glanced at the lowered car curtain, "Keep an eye on it tonight, maybe someone will die."

Mu Hancai sneered, "If someone dies, it's their own fault."

It is not a good thing for someone who can push his maidservant to be humiliated for him.

Cheng Jiao got into the carriage and looked into the unmoving eyes of her own maid, Qiu Ju.

"Look at what!"

Afraid of being heard by people outside, Cheng Jiao could only growl in a low voice.

"Girl, aren't you afraid?"

Qiu Ju's voice was hoarse, and she didn't know if it was because she hadn't spoken for a long time, or if her throat was choked by the bandits.

"Fear?"

Cheng Jiao sneered, "You're just a random person, it's your duty to protect me."

Qiu Ju turned around silently, but her eyes were not closed. She knew very well who the servant was.

In the middle of the night, the carriage where Cheng Jiao was in suddenly shook, and Mu Hancai opened his eyes to look over. The bandits were about to go over to check, but Mu Hancai's eyes froze.

He twitched the corner of his mouth, then moved back, first in small steps, and finally into long strides, until he was back where he had come from.

Cheng Jiao's painful voice came from the carriage, and Mu Han picked up a stone and threw it on the window of the carriage, "Don't kill me, or we won't be able to do business."

Qiu Ju, who was strangling Cheng Jiao's neck, froze for a moment. She looked at the person below her with red eyes, and finally took out the dagger attached to her heel and cut off the other person's tongue.

The painful cry from the blood and Cheng Jiao made Qiu Ju drop the dagger involuntarily, and stepped back.

Liu Hanwen was awakened, he lifted the curtain of the car and looked over, only to see Qiu Ju was getting off the carriage with some blood on her body, her stumbling steps were very worrying.

"I cut off her tongue."

Qiu Ju looked at Liu Hanwen and the others, and suddenly knelt down on the ground, "I cut off her tongue."

The bandit swallowed, heard the screams in the carriage and raised his hand to touch his tongue that was still there.

"Girl, drink some water first."

Mu Han restarted the fire, Liu Hanshu and Liu Hanwen sat by the fire, and Liu Hanwen handed Qiu Ju a pot of water.

Qiu Ju glanced at him gratefully, and the voice in the carriage gradually weakened, probably fainted from pain.

"My name is Qiu Ju, and the one in the carriage is Cheng Jiao..."

After a long time, Qiu Ju talked about her life experience.

It turns out that Qiu Ju is not Qiu Ju at all, her original name is Cheng Jiao, and Qiu Ju, who had her tongue broken in the carriage, is a pair of master and servant.

Cheng's mother passed away early, and Cheng's father took his cousin as his wife. The stepmother didn't like Cheng Jiao, who was eight years old, and asked Cheng's father to send her back to the old house to cultivate her self-cultivation. Cheng Jiao was accompanied only by Qiu Ju, who was the same age as her And Qiu Ju's mother.

But after arriving at the old house, Qiu Ju's mother Li Shi told the tribe that Qiu Ju was the master, and Cheng Jiao was her daughter and Qiu Ju's personal maid.

"Although I am young, I also know that the truth is not like that, but the nanny pulled me aside, saying that my stepmother will definitely find someone to harm me, and only by switching my identity with Qiu Ju can I protect me."

Speaking of this, Qiu Ju, it shouldn't be Cheng Jiao who sneered, "Since then, I have been a servant and she is the master. Ten years have passed. After the nanny passed away, the Cheng family wanted me to go back and send a letter from my family. to go back."

It never occurred to her that Qiu Ju was already used to being the master, how could she be willing to switch identities with Cheng Jiao back, so she came up with a poisonous plan.

"Tricked me to put on her clothes when I went out, and kept calling me girl on the way. There were no bandits in that area before. They were all bullies that she hired with money. When you came, the other party was afraid of revealing your identity, so you should be right." If you attack, you don't want this young hero to be so strong in martial arts, let them lift a rock and shoot him in the foot."

Cheng Jiao looked at her wrist, "I'm not perfect now, even if I go back to Cheng's house, I will be humiliated and let my stepmother manipulate me, it's better to have a fight with Qiu Ju."

After hearing this, Liu Hanwen sighed, "Miss Cheng, the world is so big that you can shelter everywhere, why are you afraid of this kind of servant? Life is unsatisfactory in all likelihood, you can say that I don't feel backache when I stand and talk , but think about it, will the pain you suffer dissipate after you die?"

Cheng Jiao clenched her hands tightly, "Young master's words are very true, but now that the evil servant has cut off his tongue, his nausea is hard to get rid of. The Cheng family, I, I can't go back."

Mu Han beckoned at the bandit, and the bandit came over cautiously, "Master, master?"

"How much money did that woman give you?"

The bandit looked carefully at Cheng Jiao, then stretched out his finger, "50 taels of silver."

There are ten of them, exactly five taels per person.

"Give you a daughter-in-law," Mu Han said with a smile.

The bandit was either no, no no, in the end he could only forcefully say thank you, lord.

Originally Liu Hanwen wanted to take Cheng Jiao along, but Cheng Jiao declined. She only asked Liu Hanwen to lend her ten taels of silver, and said that if she lived in the future, she would ask Liu Hanwen to repay her favor.

Early the next morning, Cheng Jiao and the carriage disappeared.

Only the bandits took Qiu Ju, who had lost her tongue, away with a rope.

"Follow them," Liu Hanwen lifted the curtain of the car and gave Xiao Wu a peanut, and Xiao Wu flew over with a cry.

When passing by the yamen, Mu Hancai went to report the case, and before they left the city gate, the mountain bandit and Qiu Ju were caught by the yamen.

Liu Hanwen learned of the fate of the bandits and Qiu Ju from Xiao Wu's mouth.

The bandits and their party were all arrested, none of them were good people, and they were all sent to prison. As for Qiu Ju, what Li Shi and her did were all written by Liu Hanwen on a cloth and Xiaowu was thrown in the hall. She is the son of the Cheng family, and Cheng Jiao was "killed to death" by the evil servant. Master Cheng was so furious that he ordered Qiu Ju to be beaten to death.

The black magpie and the flower sparrow have already gone to the capital first. The matter Liu Hanwen asked them to investigate last time has some clues. Now it is time for the black magpie to confirm.

The three of them are not in a hurry, and if they encounter a fun and beautiful place, they will stop and rest for a few days before going on the road.

On this day, they arrived at Yuri City, the wine capital.

"It's not the wine that makes people linger the most, but the poems here," Liu Hanwen said with a smile as he lifted the curtain of the car and looked at the words on the city gate.

"I heard that many great poets drank the wine here because they came to the wine, so they left admirable poems and songs in various places in the city."

Liu Hanshu's eyes were also full of anticipation, and only Mu Han smiled and said, "You say poetry is good, then you should read poetry carefully, and I'll have to drink Jiuzhuan Huanyang wine."

"Nine Turns Returning Yang Wine? What is that?"

Liu Hanshu was puzzled.

Liu Hanwen smiled lightly, "It's a kind of aphrodisiac wine."

"Although it is Yang-strengthening wine, it is a good wine for us warriors to improve our cultivation," Mu Hancai said as he drove into the city and talked about the origin of Jiuzhuan Yangyang Wine.

After talking for a long time, Liu Hanshu still looked at each other with a strange expression on his face, "Unexpectedly, you still need to strengthen your yang, Brother Wen, before you get married, let's forget about marriage..."

Liu Hanwen held back his laughter, and Mu Han ferociously handed the carriage to Liu Hanshu, and dragged Liu Hanwen into the inn.

Liu Hanshu shrugged, and beckoned Xiao Er to come over and put the carriage away.

"Two upper rooms, a table of good food delivered to the room."

After Mu Han finished speaking, he threw the money over.

The shopkeeper smiled and asked Xiao Er to take them upstairs.

"The city of wine is the city of wine," Liu Hanshu opened the window after arriving in the room, and a scent of wine wafted in.

Liu Hanwen sat obediently, and let Mu Han wipe his forehead with the cream to remove scars.

Although the wound healed, it left some scars, and Mu Han felt distressed after seeing it just once. In the end, Liu Hanwen couldn't hold him back, so he applied the ointment.

"Just say what a hero, if you have the ability, let's get drunk tonight!"

"I believe you ghost!" Liu Hanshu was upset when he heard this, "A few days ago who secretly used internal force to force the wine out and made me vomit all day!"

Mu Han had a serious face, "It's not me."

Liu Hanwen opened his eyes to look at him, but he quickly changed his words, "It's me who was drunk."

"Bullshit! It's not all about you!"

Mu Hancai's thick skin had already forced Liu Hanshu to swear.

"Guest officer, your food and drinks have arrived!"

Xiao Er's voice prevented a "fierce battle."

After eating, the three of them went shopping. Halfway along the way, they saw a teenage brother kneeling on the ground in sackcloth and filial piety. Not far behind him was a corpse wrapped in a layer of turf. tasted.

"Sell yourself to bury your father?"

Liu Hanwen read the strip of canvas in front of the brother.

Brother raised his head when he heard his voice, "Brother, you only need five taels of silver to buy the villain."

The others clicked their tongues when they heard this, "Others can sell it for one or two taels, why do you want five taels?"

Brother lowered his head, "Just because there are father and younger brother at home, even if the villain sells himself out, he can't let them starve to death."

Seeing that he was like this, Liu Hanshu was still thinking about his family, and felt a little emotional, and was about to offer some money to help, when Mu Han stopped him, "Brother, if you don't want to be targeted, Just don't do good."
