Once a dead eunuch
Chapter 44
Li Changsheng said: "His Royal Highness, be safe and don't be impatient."
Jing Baiyu was very flustered at this time, but after hearing Li Changsheng's words, she still bit her lower lip and nodded, trying to calm herself down.
The situation is already bad enough, if fear and worry get in the way, it will only make the situation worse.
The soldiers on the city gate tower were extremely bored, probably because they had nothing to do while guarding the city at night, so they laughed and teased the half-grown child Jing Baiyu.
One laughed and said, "Which family is this kid from? Isn't he an idiot?"
"Haha, how dare you think about it, and say that you are the prince."
"That's right, I don't even dare to think about it."
"What are you doing!"
Just at this time, there was a scolding sound from behind, and the two soldiers hurriedly turned their heads to look at them, they were all startled in shock, and said, "Deputy Captain Liu..."
Deputy Lieutenant Liu's face was so majestic that the two soldiers didn't dare to breathe when they saw him, and they couldn't laugh anymore.
Vice-Wei Liu said, "What's the noise and laughter?"
The soldiers looked at each other, looked at each other, and finally couldn't bear the pressure, so they had to say: "There is a little baby under the city gate, who claims to be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of our Dajing. The two of us found it interesting after hearing it. Just, just..."
"His Royal Highness?" Deputy Lieutenant Liu said with a more serious expression, "Where is he?"
"It's just under the city! It's here!" a soldier hurriedly said.
Deputy Lieutenant Liu followed the soldier's finger down, supported the city gate and looked down. When he lowered his head, it was dark under the city gate, because the sky was too dark, and it was almost impossible to see anything clearly.
The soldiers next to him were really discerning, and hurriedly held up torches to illuminate Deputy Captain Liu.But no matter how carefully you look, there is no one under the city gate, not even a ghost. What kind of half-grown child is simply a dream.
"What's going on?! People!"
Deputy Liu's eyes widened, and he let out a low drink.
The soldiers panicked and said: "No, Deputy Captain Liu, we really saw it, really! It's just a kid who looks like six or seven years old, and there's a man with him, and he's here just now! Right here!"
Seeing that they didn't seem to be lying, Deputy Liu looked down again, but still found nothing.
At this moment, Jing Baiyu was quickly taken away by Li Changsheng.The two men and the two horses were hiding in the grass. The soldiers and Deputy Lieutenant Liu looked from the city gate. Although they had a wide field of vision, they were covered by the grass and trees, so they couldn't be seen at all.
Jing Baiyu didn't dare to make a sound, was dragged to hide, and waited for a while before saying: "Li Changsheng, what's wrong? Why are we hiding?"
Li Changsheng said: "Those soldiers have a problem, shhh—someone is coming."
Li Changsheng made a gesture of silence, and sure enough, he heard a rattling sound.
A group of soldiers went up and down the city gate, opened the city gate, and walked out quickly. Isn't the leader Liu Fuwei?
Vice-Lieutenant Liu waved his hand and said, "Quick, find it for me! They shouldn't be far away yet! Search carefully! Be sure to bring that child to me!"
Although the soldiers were confused, they didn't dare to ask more questions, and hurriedly searched around.
Deputy Lieutenant Liu thought for a while, grabbed a soldier next to him, and said, "You! Go into the palace quickly and report to the king. Just say... the real His Royal Highness, I am afraid that he has found it, so that the king can make preparations early. "
"Yes!" The soldier was Deputy Lieutenant Liu's capable confidant. After hearing this, he immediately got on his horse and quickly entered the city gate. He galloped all the way, and soon disappeared.
Li Changsheng and Jing Baiyu did not go far. After all, the city gate had a good view, and they just took the opportunity to hide. If they moved rashly, they would be shot dead by the guards on the gate tower before they took a few steps. Hornet's nest.
The two of them hid in the bushes, and they heard Deputy Liu's words clearly.
Jing Baiyu was taken aback, and covered her mouth with her hand so as not to make any noise.
Then Deputy Lieutenant Liu said...
Really His Royal Highness...
Let the king make plans early...
Who else could be the king of Sanyou City, isn't it undoubtedly King Zhao Liang?
It sounds like this, I am afraid that Li Changsheng must have confirmed that this seemingly honest King Zhao Liang has ulterior motives.
Seeing the soldiers approaching and getting closer and closer to them, Jing Baiyu was a little nervous, stretched out her small hand to firmly grasp Li Changsheng's hand, and asked in a low voice: "Li Changsheng, what should I do?"
Li Changsheng narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice: "I'll go and lure them away, you ride away first, do you understand?"
"No!" Jing Baiyu held Li Changsheng's hand and said, "This is too dangerous, they will take you away, what will we do then?"
"I……"
Just as Li Changsheng was about to speak, there were several rustling sounds in the grass in the distance, as if some wild beast was inhabiting.
"Look!"
"There they are!"
"Catch them!"
The soldiers did not miss such subtle movements, and they all rushed forward and quickly rushed towards the grass in the distance.
"It's now!"
Li Changsheng grabbed Jing Baiyu, carried him onto the horse's back, and quickly got on the horse himself, raising the whip in his hand and slamming it down.
Everyone jumped into the grass, but at first glance they didn't see anything, the grass was empty.
"This……"
"what is this?"
Just when everyone was wondering, a soldier pointed to the ground and shouted.
Only then was everyone's attention attracted, and they all lowered their heads to look.
Just look at the root of the grass, there is actually a kitten hiding, no wonder the grass was rustling just now, it was the kitten that caused the trouble, not the kid who claimed to be the prince hiding here.
"Bah! It turned out to be a wild cat!"
"See what it has in its mouth?"
Seeing the crowd surrounding it, the wild cat immediately ran away vigorously, running away for several battles one after another.Just look at the dusty thing in its mouth. At first glance, it looks like a rabbit, but when you look closely, it doesn't look like it. It confuses everyone.
"Ouch-"
The wild cat let out a low growl from its throat, the sound was not loud, nor majestic, after all, it was too small.
This is not a wild cat, but a pitifully small little tiger!
Isn't it Jing Baiyu's kitten?
What the kitten had in its mouth was Jing Baiyu's beloved rabbit puppet.At this moment, the rabbit puppet is already dusty, and it still looks a little white and fluffy. All the long white fur has been soaked by the rain and sticks together.
The little tiger and the rabbit are like puppets, both in a bit of a panic.But it was surrounded by many soldiers, but it didn't appear to be in a panic. On the contrary, it was rare to have the prestige of the king of beasts.
The little tiger suddenly kicked its feet, jumped out of the encirclement with the rabbit in its mouth, and ran away quickly.
"Look!"
"People ran away!"
"So it's over there!"
"Chase!"
Because of the sudden appearance of the little tiger, the soldiers let the little prince Jing Baiyu and Li Changsheng go without paying attention.Seeing that the two horses ran too fast, the soldiers hurriedly turned around and rode on the tall horses, and jumped on them.
The little tiger held the puppet rabbit in its mouth, and wanted to quickly catch up with the little master, but it suddenly turned around halfway through the run.
Under the light of the torch and moonlight, the little tiger's usually dark eyes turned blue, which was indescribably weird.
It turned around again and ran towards the tall horses that were galloping.
"Ow!"
The little tiger roared angrily at the tall horses. This time, because he roared too loudly and opened his mouth too wide, the puppet rabbit in his mouth fell to the ground with a "click".
Accompanied by the roar of the little tiger, horses honked everywhere.
The soldiers didn't realize that the wild cat in front of them was actually a fake tiger, but the horses were so frightened that they were instantly stunned by the little tiger.
"what happened?"
"It's evil!"
Seeing it, the little tiger hurriedly lowered its head to pick up the rabbit puppet that had fallen badly on the ground, and then ran away quickly while the soldiers had no reaction, and chased after its little master, Jing Baiyu.
Li Changsheng fled the city gate with Jing Baiyu, and ran a long way in one breath, and then he relaxed a little.
Jing Baiyu's face turned pale, and she said, "How could this be? Did someone pretend to be me? But how could Emperor Father not recognize me?"
Li Changsheng narrowed his eyes and said, "It seems that all of this was planned long ago."
Whether it's a well-timed landslide, a sudden fake bandit, or a fake prince who pretends to be a fake prince, all of these are like a trap, one after another.
Originally, Jing Baiyu thought that after entering Sanyou City, he would be able to reunite with his father, and when he brought Zouyu back, everyone would be safe.
But right now, the situation is taking a turn for the worse. The Sanyou City has not entered. King Zhao Liang seems to have ulterior motives. The worst thing is that the emperor has already entered the Sanyou City. There is also a fake prince Jing Baiyu in the city. Now Jing Baiyu is If you can't go back home, even if you tell others that you are the crown prince, most likely no one will believe him and treat him as a lunatic.
"Why don't we go to Zou Yu first." Jing Baiyu said worriedly, "I don't know what's going on with him alone, he's hurt so badly."
Li Changsheng nodded and said, "Okay."
After running around all day, Jing Baiyu must be exhausted.Li Changsheng felt that no matter what, Zou Yu's side was still safe, and it would be prudent to take Jing Baiyu back to rest first.
"rustle--"
There was a shake in the nearby grass.
Li Changsheng immediately covered Jing Baiyu's mouth and nose with his hands, signaling him to keep quiet.
Jing Baiyu's whole body was tense, and her gaze was fixed on the swaying grass.
Li Changsheng had already stretched out his hand to hold down the dagger at his waist.
"sand!"
"Ow!"
In the next moment, a small thing with a thick head and a thick head jumped out of the grass, and quickly rushed into Jing Baiyu's arms.
"Kitty!"
Jing Baiyu opened her eyes wide in surprise, and looked at the little tiger in her arms in disbelief.
"Li Changsheng! It's really a kitten!"
Jing Baiyu held up the little tiger for Li Changsheng to see, almost crying with excitement.
Li Changsheng didn't expect that, after all, the little tiger was left in the camp at that time, and the camp was already quite far away from here.
"Huh!" Jing Baiyu looked at it again and was even more pleasantly surprised.
Not only did the little tiger find it by himself, but the little tiger even had Jing Baiyu's favorite rabbit puppet in its mouth.
Although the rabbit is dirty and looks pitiful, this feeling of being lost and found again really warms Jing Baiyu's heart.
Jing Baiyu quickly hugged the little tiger and the rabbit puppet in her arms, rubbed the little tiger's head with her cheeks, and said: "Little cat, you are so powerful, you brought the little rabbit here too, That's great."
The little tiger rested its two front paws on Jing Baiyu's shoulders and kept rubbing its head against him, as if it missed Jing Baiyu very much.
Li Changsheng didn't even think about it, the little tiger could catch up by himself, and couldn't help showing a gratified smile.
"Snapped--"
It was rare for Li Changsheng to see the little tiger very pleasing to the eye, but the next moment, the coquettish little tiger took the opportunity to "slap" Li Changsheng.
The little tiger flung itself into Jing Baiyu's arms and acted like a baby, its tail was like a puppy, wagging happily from side to side, although the little tiger was still small, its tail was not too short, and it was quite powerful.He raised his tail and shook it, taking advantage of the opportunity to "hit" Li Changsheng.
Li Changsheng didn't care about it at first, but then, in the blink of an eye, there were three "pops, pops", and the little tiger couldn't get enough of it, so he kept flailing his tail back and forth, waving it provocatively.
"Ah--"
Li Changsheng's forehead bulged with veins, and as soon as he raised his hand, he grabbed the little tiger's disobedient tail.
"Wow! Woooooo!"
The little tiger was caught by its tail, and immediately looked like a cat with fried fur. It turned its head and showed its paws, and gestured at Li Changsheng a few times.
Jing Baiyu was rejoicing, when she saw the little tiger blowing her fur, she hurriedly said: "Li Changsheng, don't bully it, it just came back, look at how pitiful it is."
"Ow—"
The little tiger fell pitifully in Jing Baiyu's arms with a weak look on his face.
Besides, in order to save Jing Baiyu, Zou Yu let go of his hand for a while, and the little tiger was left in the car.
But the situation was chaotic, and the little tiger didn't know much about things, so he got out by himself, and lost the trace of his little master Jing Baiyu in a blink of an eye.
In this way, how could the little tiger not be in a hurry, and began to look for the whereabouts of its master.
There was a sound of killing all around, and the fake bandits would kill anyone they saw, but the little tiger was not within their range of attack at all, and everyone seemed to have not seen it.
The little tiger shuttled freely, but it was very safe.It was running and jumping around, but it couldn't see the little master at all. Instead, it saw another "rival in love", that is the rabbit puppet who is very popular with the little master.
The rabbit puppet also fell to the ground, all alone, already covered in ashes, where there is still the radiance in the little tiger's eyes.
The little tiger hurried over, picked up the puppet rabbit in the puddle, took it with him, and continued to search for the whereabouts of the little master.
Those fake bandits came so fiercely that half of the guards protecting the emperor were cut off. When the whole army was about to be annihilated, the emperor and the others had already arrived not far from Sanyou City.
King Zhao Liang led his own army to repel those fake bandits, just like timely rain, and rescued the emperor from danger.
The emperor breathed a sigh of relief, already exhausted enough, he followed King Zhao Liang into the Three Tour City, and entered the palace to rest and rectify.
The little tiger was looking for the trace of the little master all the way, and happened to meet the emperor's troops entering the city.
Mrs. Feng looked familiar at the little tiger, and even more familiar at the rabbit puppet in the little tiger's mouth, isn't it the little prince Jing Baiyu's thing?
Mrs. Feng simply took the little tiger away and took them to the palace in the city.
The emperor was already safe, so he thought of his son, Crown Prince Jing Baiyu, and hurriedly sent someone to look for Jing Baiyu.
Before the bodyguards who were looking for people were dispatched, King Zhao Liang hurriedly brought people to see him, saying that someone had already encountered the fleeing prince outside, and the prince had arrived safely at this moment.
The emperor heaved a sigh of relief and asked someone to bring the crown prince Jing Baiyu here.
Not long after, a seven or eight-year-old child was indeed brought into the hall.When the emperor saw it, he felt mixed feelings, this child was not his only blood.
Seeing the little master, the little tiger immediately ran over joyfully, but when he got close, the little tiger backed up a few steps instead, looking up at the little master with a puzzled expression on his face.
Others saw that the prince was fine, but he looked thinner and embarrassed, so the emperor asked the prince to stay on the bed to rest and adjust himself.
However, the little tiger looked at the little prince with vigilant eyes. It bared its teeth and was very restless, as if its tail had been stepped on.
Mrs. Feng took meat pieces to feed the little tiger in the afternoon, but the little tiger had disappeared.
Taking advantage of no one around, the little tiger rushed out of the palace with the dusty rabbit puppet in its mouth, climbing over walls and tiles all the way, and left the city in one breath.
Seeing that it was getting dark, the little tiger came out of the city, but he didn't know where to find his little master.
At this time, it was also a coincidence that the little tiger suddenly shrugged its nose and smelled the scent of the little master.
of course……
The little tiger also smelled his "rival in love".
It poked its head along the grass and looked, but it was true, beside its little master, it really followed "rival in love" Li Changsheng every step of the way.
The little tiger managed to reunite with the little master with great difficulty, and was as happy as something, and kept acting coquettishly, refusing to leave Jing Baiyu's arms.
Not only is he acting coquettishly, the little tiger also finds time to cast a provocative look at Li Changsheng from time to time.
Li Changsheng felt a little funny, and said, "What's the matter? Do you think I can't cure you?"
"Li Changsheng, don't bully it." Jing Baiyu said.
Li Changsheng looked innocent, and said: "Why did I bully him? I just want to tell His Royal Highness that this little tiger has been rolling outside for a day, and I don't know what it has done. Maybe there are fleas on it. Look at it, it's dirty all over, but don't let the prince also be infected with fleas."
"Jump...fleas..."
Jing Baiyu loves cleanliness the most. She doesn't like to step on the dirt on weekdays. How can she tolerate the small bugs on her body?
Jing Baiyu shuddered all over, and hurriedly dug the little tiger out of her arms, put it on the ground beside her, and said, "There's water in front, so hug me after taking a bath, okay, little cat?"
"Ouch-"
The little tiger tilted his head, looking puzzled.It hadn't enjoyed the little master's embrace enough, and stretched out its claws to fall into Jing Baiyu's arms again, but was pushed out by Jing Baiyu.
"Ouch..."
The little tiger shook his ears, and suddenly felt aggrieved.Then he turned his head slowly and stared at Li Changsheng, who was smiling all over his face.
"Aww!" The little tiger seemed to know that it was Li Changsheng who made the little master despise him and grinned at him.
Li Changsheng didn't take its danger seriously at all, and instead smiled generously at him.
The little tiger was so angry that he turned around on the spot, but he couldn't help Li Changsheng.After all, it is still too small now, and it wanted to sneak attack Li Changsheng, but Li Changsheng slapped it on the ground with one hand. It had no power to fight back, so it could only cry to the little master for help.
"Stop messing around."
Jing Baiyu said helplessly: "Let's go quickly, maybe we will be able to find Zou Yu at dawn."
Li Changsheng said: "Let's rest first, you haven't rested all day. Besides, there is only one horse left, and it is very tired. I'm afraid it won't be able to run."
Jing Baiyu felt that there was some truth to it, but now he felt very uneasy, and only hoped that everything would end soon.
"Come here, I'll hug you." Li Changsheng waved to Jing Baiyu and said, "There seems to be a house over there, let's go and spend the night."
Li Changsheng knew that Jing Baiyu was absolutely too tired to walk, but he was reluctant to say it.
Jing Baiyu quickly shook her head and said, "I don't want you to hug me, you must be more tired than me."
It was Li Changsheng who took care of him along the way. Before, he carried Zou Yu on his back and hugged him for a long time, which was definitely much harder than himself.
"Children have to be obedient, do you understand?"
As Li Changsheng said, he walked over and bent down, hugged Jing Baiyu directly, and said, "Close your eyes and fall asleep first, so you can replenish your energy."
Jing Baiyu couldn't resist him, so she could only lie in his arms and nodded obediently.
The little tiger saw that the little master was picked up, and it jumped quickly, wanting to run into the little master's arms, and let the little master hold it.
It's just that Li Changsheng is too tall, and the little tiger can't jump that high all at once, so he can only walk around Li Changsheng, and there is nothing he can do.
Li Changsheng looked down at the little tiger condescendingly, and said, "Now you are looking at me pitifully, why don't you look like this just now?"
"Aww!" The little tiger confronted Li Changsheng with his round eyes.
In the end, Li Changsheng asked the little tiger to come up too. Judging by the little tiger's appearance, he must be very tired.Anyway, just now they were downstairs at the city gate, if it wasn't for the sudden appearance of the little tiger, it would be difficult for them to escape. The little tiger is a great hero, and deserves a little praise and reward.
Li Changsheng hugged Jing Baiyu, Jing Baiyu hugged the little tiger, and the little tiger hugged the rabbit puppet.Not long after, Jing Baiyu's eyes became heavy, and he fell asleep very quickly.
Jing Baiyu actually had a fever and felt very uncomfortable. Coupled with the constant pain in his back, it was already an overload for a child of his size.
Now that it was quiet, Jing Baiyu couldn't bear it anymore, and fell asleep directly, sleeping very soundly.
He was in a dream, when he suddenly heard the cries of the little tiger, as well as some strange laughter and voices.
Jing Baiyu opened his eyes and rubbed them in confusion.
"This little baby is awake!"
"Yeah, it seems to be awake."
The first thing that came into view was not Li Changsheng's familiar face, but a few strong men with unshaven beards.
"Ho-"
Jing Baiyu gasped, her whole body was startled, and she turned over quickly.
The little tiger took a look, and immediately jumped in front of Jing Baiyu, as if wanting to protect the little master.
Just look at a dozen or so big men surrounding them, it's like an iron bucket, there is no gap at all.
Jing Baiyu's eyeballs twitched wildly, trying to find a breakthrough to break out of the encirclement, but there was no way.
Jing Baiyu couldn't stop sizing up the dozen or so people carefully, her heart suddenly turned cold, and it became colder and colder, she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave.
The dozen or so big men were all tall and burly, with big knives in their hands, all of them were wearing coarse cloth shorts, not very trimmed, and unkempt.
This outfit...
Isn't it the fake bandits who attacked them during the landslide?
Jing Baiyu quickly circled around and said anxiously, "Li Changsheng? Li Changsheng?"
There were only tiger cubs and bandits around him, and Li Changsheng was nowhere to be seen.
Jing Baiyu was even more panicked. She didn't care much for a while, and shouted: "Li Changsheng? What did you do to Li Changsheng! What about others! What about others! If you dare to touch him, I..."
"Hahaha, this little doll is really interesting."
The big guys didn't wait for him to say anything, they burst into laughter and said, "Little baby, stop shouting. You mean the man next to you?"
Jing Baiyu looked at them vigilantly, her fists clenched tightly.
A big man said: "Is he your uncle? You can rest assured that he is fine! He has already sold your little nephew and the little tiger to us. We kindly let him go after seeing it. Anyway, it is okay to keep him." It's useless to waste rations."
"Sell……"
Jing Baiyu's eyes widened, with a look of disbelief on his face, he said, "Impossible... How could Li Changsheng sell me to you? He won't leave me alone..."
Jing Baiyu had a severe headache, she muttered, the more she said, the more she felt aggrieved, her eyes turned red uncontrollably.
"Haha," another big man said, "Why not? As soon as we frighten him, he gets scared, so he simply said that we would throw you down to pay off the debt, and let us let him go!"
"Bullshit!"
Jing Baiyu was still confused at first, but after hearing it again, she became firmer and said, "What was Li Changsheng afraid of? Don't you think about lying before you tell a lie? Where is he?"
"He... oops!"
One of the burly men wanted to speak, but a chestnut was thrown from behind.
"Oh, it hurts me to death, Second Leader!" The big man turned his head to look at the person who hit him on the back of the head, but he didn't dare to be stubborn, and said with a smile, "Second Leader, why did you hit me?"
The visitor was quite tall, and seemed to be comparable to Li Changsheng, but he was much stronger than Li Changsheng, almost bigger than a cow, giving people a sense of oppression.
That man was the second in command in the bandit's mouth, he looked down at Jing Baiyu, and said: "What are you doing, bullying a child, it's really shameless! Who are you going to throw at me?"
The bandits hurriedly smiled and said, "It's not that we brothers, watching the little baby wake up, just play with him. Second boss, tell me, when did we have such a big baby in our cottage? Look It hurts a lot, but it's more interesting, I really can't hold back."
Jing Baiyu was a little dazed, these people are...
tease yourself?
Jing Baiyu's face was originally pale, but now she turned green with anger, staring at those big men viciously.
The big men also knew that they had done something embarrassing, so they hurriedly smiled and said, "Little baby, don't mind, we are just playing a joke on you. A man must be able to take a joke! Don't you think so? "
Jing Baiyu didn't tell them this, and said solemnly: "Where did Li Changsheng go! What did you do to him!"
"Oh, you little boy has such a temper." A bandit said, "How can you call uncle by his first name?"
"You tease him again, be careful that the second boss will beat you again." Another bandit said.
"I'm here." A voice suddenly appeared.
"Li Changsheng!"
Jing Baiyu didn't have time to listen to their jokes, so she saw a tall man walking in from the outside, pushed aside the crowd, and came to Jing Baiyu.
Jing Baiyu called out to Li Changsheng, jumped up and rushed over, hugged Li Changsheng's leg, and said, "Where did you go? I thought you were in danger! I was scared to death..."
Li Changsheng patted Jing Baiyu's shoulder, and said in a warm voice, "Don't be afraid, with uncle here, nothing will happen to you."
"What uncle?" Jing Baiyu looked up at him.
Li Changsheng smiled at him with a rather inscrutable smile.
The second master patted the case next to him and said: "Don't talk nonsense, you just said good things, don't go back on your word!"
Li Changsheng smiled and said, "Of course I won't regret it."
Jing Baiyu was even more perplexed, and said, "What's going on here? I can't understand what you all said."
Li Changsheng leaned over to Jing Baiyu's ear and said, "Don't worry, I'll talk to you slowly in a while. You're only waking up now. It's serious to fill your stomach first."
He said that's all, and said to the second head: "My nephew is hungry, I wonder if I can get some food."
"That's easy to say." The second master was very generous, nodded, and asked the younger brother next to him to bring food and meat.
That's all for the Erdang's family to give orders, and then said: "You guys have something to eat and rest for a while, then we have to go back to the cottage, don't delay the trip any longer."
"Okay." Li Changsheng said: "We have no problem."
Li Changsheng led Jing Baiyu into the room together and closed the door.
Li Changsheng then said: "Your fever has subsided, but do you feel better?"
Jing Baiyu reached out and touched her forehead, only to realize that apart from the pain, she didn't feel too much nausea and dizziness, and said, "Really, I don't have a fever anymore."
"Yes." Li Changsheng said: "You have been sleeping for two days, if you still have a fever, I'm afraid you will scare me to death."
"Slept for two days?!"
Jing Baiyu looked at him in amazement, and said, "You didn't tease me?"
"Of course not." Li Changsheng said, "Not long after you fell asleep, we met the group outside."
"Those bandits?" Jing Baiyu whispered, "Why didn't they kill us, instead gave us dry food and meat? It's so strange."
Logically speaking, that group of bandits might be with King Zhao Liang. Now that the emperor has fallen into King Zhao Liang's trap, they have found a fake prince to help out. Jing Baiyu, the real prince, is useless and should be chopped down. It is to avoid future troubles.
but……
Li Changsheng saw his puzzled look, and said with a smile: "Because those outside are indeed bandits, but the ones we met before were not real bandits."
"I, I'm a little confused..."
Jing Baiyu felt that she had just woken up, her mind was still confused, and she couldn't understand what was going on now.
Li Changsheng said: "While you are eating, I will explain it to you in detail."
"Okay." Jing Baiyu said obediently.
The little tiger followed along, and it seemed that it was hungry, and it was already lying down on the ground to eat, and it didn't care whether it was a vegetable leaf or a piece of meat, and it was eating happily.
That day Li Changsheng was walking forward with Jing Baiyu in his arms, and Jing Baiyu fell into a deep sleep. Li Changsheng thought that there would be a house in front of him, but the house was not a resident, but a ruined temple, obviously no one had worshiped it for a long time.
There is nothing to eat in the ruined temple, but it is covered by a tile head, so you can still rest in it.Li Changsheng originally planned to take Jing Baiyu there, but who would have expected that someone would have already taken over the ruined temple when he got there.
A group of big men dressed as bandits gathered in the ruined temple, there were quite a few of them.
When Li Changsheng saw all the bandits at first glance, he felt a "thump" in his heart, and when he thought about going out with Jing Baiyu, he felt that the bandits from before might have found them. If Li Changsheng brought Jing Baiyu inside, he would have fallen into a trap.
Taking advantage of the fact that the bandits hadn't noticed him, Li Changsheng quickly left quietly holding Jing Baiyu.
"But unfortunately." Li Changsheng said it calmly, "When I left, I was caught by the second boss."
The second head of the family was bringing a few younger brothers up from the mountainside, and happened to meet Li Changsheng who was leaving in a hurry.It was conceivable that although Li Changsheng knew a little about Sanda, he couldn't beat these bandits.
The second leader was as strong as a cow, and it was a bit difficult for Li Changsheng to deal with him alone, let alone the others.
In this way, Li Changsheng, Jing Baiyu, and the little tiger were detained in the ruined temple.
At that time, Jing Baiyu was not in a deep sleep, but passed out due to a high fever. Although there was a lot of movement around her, she had no intention of waking up at all.
The second leader tied up Li Changsheng and said, "Who are you?"
Li Changsheng's hands were tied, Ben lowered his head, his eyes were shaking slightly, he thought about it in his heart, and he planned how to speak.It's just that the second master opened his mouth first, which made Li Changsheng a little confused.
who……
As soon as the second master opened his mouth, the bandits next to him started booing and said, "Yeah, who are you? You are disheveled, but you are dressed really well. I'm afraid you are sons of rich people?"
"Is this your son?"
"It doesn't look like it, it looks different."
Li Changsheng opened his mouth tentatively and said, "This is my nephew. We came from a far away place. We took him on a trip to the mountains and rivers. I didn't expect to meet bad people on the way."
"A villain?! What a villain!"
Those bandits were not suspicious of Li Changsheng's words, but seemed to be very interested in the villain Li Changsheng said.
If it was really the group of fake bandits from before, how could they fail to recognize the young prince Jing Baiyu?I am afraid that they have already been chopped up and wiped out by them.
Li Changsheng pondered in his heart, this group of bandits might be real, so they would be fake.
Erdangjia also frowned when he heard the word "bad person".
The bandit next to him asked excitedly: "Is it similar to us, and also looks like a bandit?"
"This..." Li Changsheng pretended to be suspicious, and said, "Are you not in the same group? No matter how I look at you, there is no difference."
"Pooh!"
A bandit spat angrily, and said: "What kind of gang, those individuals are just a bunch of fakes! We are the serious bandits! The bandit village in Bai'an Mountain outside Sanyou City! Have you ever heard of it?"
The bandit held his chest up and looked proud, which really made Li Changsheng a little amused.
Li Changsheng shook his head and said, "I've never heard of it."
"Haven't heard of it?" The bandit said: "We are famous in this area! Do you understand that we are robbing the rich and giving to the poor?"
"What nonsense are you talking to him?" Another bandit said anxiously, "Tell me, those villains who attacked you, where did they go? Do you know!"
Li Changsheng listened carefully and had some calculations in his mind.These two groups of bandits, the real and the fake, probably had some grievances and enmities involved, but Li Changsheng felt that there was an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Li Changsheng nodded and said: "I know, I know, it's just..."
"Just what?" Erdangjia said suddenly, his voice was like a bell, and the other bandits stopped talking as soon as he spoke.
Li Changsheng said: "It's just that my nephew is seriously ill and was injured by those bandits. I don't know how many heroes can save my poor nephew first."
"Second boss, look, those bastards hurt even children!"
"Yeah, it's so inhumane!"
"They even dare to occupy our cottage, what else they dare not!"
"No, Second Master, we have to find them quickly and let them know how powerful we are!"
A bunch of bandits chattered, and the ruined temple was almost overturned in an instant.
Jing Baiyu was surprised when he heard it, and said: "So, it was bandits fighting with bandits?"
Li Changsheng nodded and said, "Exactly."
Originally, three trips to Bo'an Mountain outside the city
Jing Baiyu was very flustered at this time, but after hearing Li Changsheng's words, she still bit her lower lip and nodded, trying to calm herself down.
The situation is already bad enough, if fear and worry get in the way, it will only make the situation worse.
The soldiers on the city gate tower were extremely bored, probably because they had nothing to do while guarding the city at night, so they laughed and teased the half-grown child Jing Baiyu.
One laughed and said, "Which family is this kid from? Isn't he an idiot?"
"Haha, how dare you think about it, and say that you are the prince."
"That's right, I don't even dare to think about it."
"What are you doing!"
Just at this time, there was a scolding sound from behind, and the two soldiers hurriedly turned their heads to look at them, they were all startled in shock, and said, "Deputy Captain Liu..."
Deputy Lieutenant Liu's face was so majestic that the two soldiers didn't dare to breathe when they saw him, and they couldn't laugh anymore.
Vice-Wei Liu said, "What's the noise and laughter?"
The soldiers looked at each other, looked at each other, and finally couldn't bear the pressure, so they had to say: "There is a little baby under the city gate, who claims to be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of our Dajing. The two of us found it interesting after hearing it. Just, just..."
"His Royal Highness?" Deputy Lieutenant Liu said with a more serious expression, "Where is he?"
"It's just under the city! It's here!" a soldier hurriedly said.
Deputy Lieutenant Liu followed the soldier's finger down, supported the city gate and looked down. When he lowered his head, it was dark under the city gate, because the sky was too dark, and it was almost impossible to see anything clearly.
The soldiers next to him were really discerning, and hurriedly held up torches to illuminate Deputy Captain Liu.But no matter how carefully you look, there is no one under the city gate, not even a ghost. What kind of half-grown child is simply a dream.
"What's going on?! People!"
Deputy Liu's eyes widened, and he let out a low drink.
The soldiers panicked and said: "No, Deputy Captain Liu, we really saw it, really! It's just a kid who looks like six or seven years old, and there's a man with him, and he's here just now! Right here!"
Seeing that they didn't seem to be lying, Deputy Liu looked down again, but still found nothing.
At this moment, Jing Baiyu was quickly taken away by Li Changsheng.The two men and the two horses were hiding in the grass. The soldiers and Deputy Lieutenant Liu looked from the city gate. Although they had a wide field of vision, they were covered by the grass and trees, so they couldn't be seen at all.
Jing Baiyu didn't dare to make a sound, was dragged to hide, and waited for a while before saying: "Li Changsheng, what's wrong? Why are we hiding?"
Li Changsheng said: "Those soldiers have a problem, shhh—someone is coming."
Li Changsheng made a gesture of silence, and sure enough, he heard a rattling sound.
A group of soldiers went up and down the city gate, opened the city gate, and walked out quickly. Isn't the leader Liu Fuwei?
Vice-Lieutenant Liu waved his hand and said, "Quick, find it for me! They shouldn't be far away yet! Search carefully! Be sure to bring that child to me!"
Although the soldiers were confused, they didn't dare to ask more questions, and hurriedly searched around.
Deputy Lieutenant Liu thought for a while, grabbed a soldier next to him, and said, "You! Go into the palace quickly and report to the king. Just say... the real His Royal Highness, I am afraid that he has found it, so that the king can make preparations early. "
"Yes!" The soldier was Deputy Lieutenant Liu's capable confidant. After hearing this, he immediately got on his horse and quickly entered the city gate. He galloped all the way, and soon disappeared.
Li Changsheng and Jing Baiyu did not go far. After all, the city gate had a good view, and they just took the opportunity to hide. If they moved rashly, they would be shot dead by the guards on the gate tower before they took a few steps. Hornet's nest.
The two of them hid in the bushes, and they heard Deputy Liu's words clearly.
Jing Baiyu was taken aback, and covered her mouth with her hand so as not to make any noise.
Then Deputy Lieutenant Liu said...
Really His Royal Highness...
Let the king make plans early...
Who else could be the king of Sanyou City, isn't it undoubtedly King Zhao Liang?
It sounds like this, I am afraid that Li Changsheng must have confirmed that this seemingly honest King Zhao Liang has ulterior motives.
Seeing the soldiers approaching and getting closer and closer to them, Jing Baiyu was a little nervous, stretched out her small hand to firmly grasp Li Changsheng's hand, and asked in a low voice: "Li Changsheng, what should I do?"
Li Changsheng narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice: "I'll go and lure them away, you ride away first, do you understand?"
"No!" Jing Baiyu held Li Changsheng's hand and said, "This is too dangerous, they will take you away, what will we do then?"
"I……"
Just as Li Changsheng was about to speak, there were several rustling sounds in the grass in the distance, as if some wild beast was inhabiting.
"Look!"
"There they are!"
"Catch them!"
The soldiers did not miss such subtle movements, and they all rushed forward and quickly rushed towards the grass in the distance.
"It's now!"
Li Changsheng grabbed Jing Baiyu, carried him onto the horse's back, and quickly got on the horse himself, raising the whip in his hand and slamming it down.
Everyone jumped into the grass, but at first glance they didn't see anything, the grass was empty.
"This……"
"what is this?"
Just when everyone was wondering, a soldier pointed to the ground and shouted.
Only then was everyone's attention attracted, and they all lowered their heads to look.
Just look at the root of the grass, there is actually a kitten hiding, no wonder the grass was rustling just now, it was the kitten that caused the trouble, not the kid who claimed to be the prince hiding here.
"Bah! It turned out to be a wild cat!"
"See what it has in its mouth?"
Seeing the crowd surrounding it, the wild cat immediately ran away vigorously, running away for several battles one after another.Just look at the dusty thing in its mouth. At first glance, it looks like a rabbit, but when you look closely, it doesn't look like it. It confuses everyone.
"Ouch-"
The wild cat let out a low growl from its throat, the sound was not loud, nor majestic, after all, it was too small.
This is not a wild cat, but a pitifully small little tiger!
Isn't it Jing Baiyu's kitten?
What the kitten had in its mouth was Jing Baiyu's beloved rabbit puppet.At this moment, the rabbit puppet is already dusty, and it still looks a little white and fluffy. All the long white fur has been soaked by the rain and sticks together.
The little tiger and the rabbit are like puppets, both in a bit of a panic.But it was surrounded by many soldiers, but it didn't appear to be in a panic. On the contrary, it was rare to have the prestige of the king of beasts.
The little tiger suddenly kicked its feet, jumped out of the encirclement with the rabbit in its mouth, and ran away quickly.
"Look!"
"People ran away!"
"So it's over there!"
"Chase!"
Because of the sudden appearance of the little tiger, the soldiers let the little prince Jing Baiyu and Li Changsheng go without paying attention.Seeing that the two horses ran too fast, the soldiers hurriedly turned around and rode on the tall horses, and jumped on them.
The little tiger held the puppet rabbit in its mouth, and wanted to quickly catch up with the little master, but it suddenly turned around halfway through the run.
Under the light of the torch and moonlight, the little tiger's usually dark eyes turned blue, which was indescribably weird.
It turned around again and ran towards the tall horses that were galloping.
"Ow!"
The little tiger roared angrily at the tall horses. This time, because he roared too loudly and opened his mouth too wide, the puppet rabbit in his mouth fell to the ground with a "click".
Accompanied by the roar of the little tiger, horses honked everywhere.
The soldiers didn't realize that the wild cat in front of them was actually a fake tiger, but the horses were so frightened that they were instantly stunned by the little tiger.
"what happened?"
"It's evil!"
Seeing it, the little tiger hurriedly lowered its head to pick up the rabbit puppet that had fallen badly on the ground, and then ran away quickly while the soldiers had no reaction, and chased after its little master, Jing Baiyu.
Li Changsheng fled the city gate with Jing Baiyu, and ran a long way in one breath, and then he relaxed a little.
Jing Baiyu's face turned pale, and she said, "How could this be? Did someone pretend to be me? But how could Emperor Father not recognize me?"
Li Changsheng narrowed his eyes and said, "It seems that all of this was planned long ago."
Whether it's a well-timed landslide, a sudden fake bandit, or a fake prince who pretends to be a fake prince, all of these are like a trap, one after another.
Originally, Jing Baiyu thought that after entering Sanyou City, he would be able to reunite with his father, and when he brought Zouyu back, everyone would be safe.
But right now, the situation is taking a turn for the worse. The Sanyou City has not entered. King Zhao Liang seems to have ulterior motives. The worst thing is that the emperor has already entered the Sanyou City. There is also a fake prince Jing Baiyu in the city. Now Jing Baiyu is If you can't go back home, even if you tell others that you are the crown prince, most likely no one will believe him and treat him as a lunatic.
"Why don't we go to Zou Yu first." Jing Baiyu said worriedly, "I don't know what's going on with him alone, he's hurt so badly."
Li Changsheng nodded and said, "Okay."
After running around all day, Jing Baiyu must be exhausted.Li Changsheng felt that no matter what, Zou Yu's side was still safe, and it would be prudent to take Jing Baiyu back to rest first.
"rustle--"
There was a shake in the nearby grass.
Li Changsheng immediately covered Jing Baiyu's mouth and nose with his hands, signaling him to keep quiet.
Jing Baiyu's whole body was tense, and her gaze was fixed on the swaying grass.
Li Changsheng had already stretched out his hand to hold down the dagger at his waist.
"sand!"
"Ow!"
In the next moment, a small thing with a thick head and a thick head jumped out of the grass, and quickly rushed into Jing Baiyu's arms.
"Kitty!"
Jing Baiyu opened her eyes wide in surprise, and looked at the little tiger in her arms in disbelief.
"Li Changsheng! It's really a kitten!"
Jing Baiyu held up the little tiger for Li Changsheng to see, almost crying with excitement.
Li Changsheng didn't expect that, after all, the little tiger was left in the camp at that time, and the camp was already quite far away from here.
"Huh!" Jing Baiyu looked at it again and was even more pleasantly surprised.
Not only did the little tiger find it by himself, but the little tiger even had Jing Baiyu's favorite rabbit puppet in its mouth.
Although the rabbit is dirty and looks pitiful, this feeling of being lost and found again really warms Jing Baiyu's heart.
Jing Baiyu quickly hugged the little tiger and the rabbit puppet in her arms, rubbed the little tiger's head with her cheeks, and said: "Little cat, you are so powerful, you brought the little rabbit here too, That's great."
The little tiger rested its two front paws on Jing Baiyu's shoulders and kept rubbing its head against him, as if it missed Jing Baiyu very much.
Li Changsheng didn't even think about it, the little tiger could catch up by himself, and couldn't help showing a gratified smile.
"Snapped--"
It was rare for Li Changsheng to see the little tiger very pleasing to the eye, but the next moment, the coquettish little tiger took the opportunity to "slap" Li Changsheng.
The little tiger flung itself into Jing Baiyu's arms and acted like a baby, its tail was like a puppy, wagging happily from side to side, although the little tiger was still small, its tail was not too short, and it was quite powerful.He raised his tail and shook it, taking advantage of the opportunity to "hit" Li Changsheng.
Li Changsheng didn't care about it at first, but then, in the blink of an eye, there were three "pops, pops", and the little tiger couldn't get enough of it, so he kept flailing his tail back and forth, waving it provocatively.
"Ah--"
Li Changsheng's forehead bulged with veins, and as soon as he raised his hand, he grabbed the little tiger's disobedient tail.
"Wow! Woooooo!"
The little tiger was caught by its tail, and immediately looked like a cat with fried fur. It turned its head and showed its paws, and gestured at Li Changsheng a few times.
Jing Baiyu was rejoicing, when she saw the little tiger blowing her fur, she hurriedly said: "Li Changsheng, don't bully it, it just came back, look at how pitiful it is."
"Ow—"
The little tiger fell pitifully in Jing Baiyu's arms with a weak look on his face.
Besides, in order to save Jing Baiyu, Zou Yu let go of his hand for a while, and the little tiger was left in the car.
But the situation was chaotic, and the little tiger didn't know much about things, so he got out by himself, and lost the trace of his little master Jing Baiyu in a blink of an eye.
In this way, how could the little tiger not be in a hurry, and began to look for the whereabouts of its master.
There was a sound of killing all around, and the fake bandits would kill anyone they saw, but the little tiger was not within their range of attack at all, and everyone seemed to have not seen it.
The little tiger shuttled freely, but it was very safe.It was running and jumping around, but it couldn't see the little master at all. Instead, it saw another "rival in love", that is the rabbit puppet who is very popular with the little master.
The rabbit puppet also fell to the ground, all alone, already covered in ashes, where there is still the radiance in the little tiger's eyes.
The little tiger hurried over, picked up the puppet rabbit in the puddle, took it with him, and continued to search for the whereabouts of the little master.
Those fake bandits came so fiercely that half of the guards protecting the emperor were cut off. When the whole army was about to be annihilated, the emperor and the others had already arrived not far from Sanyou City.
King Zhao Liang led his own army to repel those fake bandits, just like timely rain, and rescued the emperor from danger.
The emperor breathed a sigh of relief, already exhausted enough, he followed King Zhao Liang into the Three Tour City, and entered the palace to rest and rectify.
The little tiger was looking for the trace of the little master all the way, and happened to meet the emperor's troops entering the city.
Mrs. Feng looked familiar at the little tiger, and even more familiar at the rabbit puppet in the little tiger's mouth, isn't it the little prince Jing Baiyu's thing?
Mrs. Feng simply took the little tiger away and took them to the palace in the city.
The emperor was already safe, so he thought of his son, Crown Prince Jing Baiyu, and hurriedly sent someone to look for Jing Baiyu.
Before the bodyguards who were looking for people were dispatched, King Zhao Liang hurriedly brought people to see him, saying that someone had already encountered the fleeing prince outside, and the prince had arrived safely at this moment.
The emperor heaved a sigh of relief and asked someone to bring the crown prince Jing Baiyu here.
Not long after, a seven or eight-year-old child was indeed brought into the hall.When the emperor saw it, he felt mixed feelings, this child was not his only blood.
Seeing the little master, the little tiger immediately ran over joyfully, but when he got close, the little tiger backed up a few steps instead, looking up at the little master with a puzzled expression on his face.
Others saw that the prince was fine, but he looked thinner and embarrassed, so the emperor asked the prince to stay on the bed to rest and adjust himself.
However, the little tiger looked at the little prince with vigilant eyes. It bared its teeth and was very restless, as if its tail had been stepped on.
Mrs. Feng took meat pieces to feed the little tiger in the afternoon, but the little tiger had disappeared.
Taking advantage of no one around, the little tiger rushed out of the palace with the dusty rabbit puppet in its mouth, climbing over walls and tiles all the way, and left the city in one breath.
Seeing that it was getting dark, the little tiger came out of the city, but he didn't know where to find his little master.
At this time, it was also a coincidence that the little tiger suddenly shrugged its nose and smelled the scent of the little master.
of course……
The little tiger also smelled his "rival in love".
It poked its head along the grass and looked, but it was true, beside its little master, it really followed "rival in love" Li Changsheng every step of the way.
The little tiger managed to reunite with the little master with great difficulty, and was as happy as something, and kept acting coquettishly, refusing to leave Jing Baiyu's arms.
Not only is he acting coquettishly, the little tiger also finds time to cast a provocative look at Li Changsheng from time to time.
Li Changsheng felt a little funny, and said, "What's the matter? Do you think I can't cure you?"
"Li Changsheng, don't bully it." Jing Baiyu said.
Li Changsheng looked innocent, and said: "Why did I bully him? I just want to tell His Royal Highness that this little tiger has been rolling outside for a day, and I don't know what it has done. Maybe there are fleas on it. Look at it, it's dirty all over, but don't let the prince also be infected with fleas."
"Jump...fleas..."
Jing Baiyu loves cleanliness the most. She doesn't like to step on the dirt on weekdays. How can she tolerate the small bugs on her body?
Jing Baiyu shuddered all over, and hurriedly dug the little tiger out of her arms, put it on the ground beside her, and said, "There's water in front, so hug me after taking a bath, okay, little cat?"
"Ouch-"
The little tiger tilted his head, looking puzzled.It hadn't enjoyed the little master's embrace enough, and stretched out its claws to fall into Jing Baiyu's arms again, but was pushed out by Jing Baiyu.
"Ouch..."
The little tiger shook his ears, and suddenly felt aggrieved.Then he turned his head slowly and stared at Li Changsheng, who was smiling all over his face.
"Aww!" The little tiger seemed to know that it was Li Changsheng who made the little master despise him and grinned at him.
Li Changsheng didn't take its danger seriously at all, and instead smiled generously at him.
The little tiger was so angry that he turned around on the spot, but he couldn't help Li Changsheng.After all, it is still too small now, and it wanted to sneak attack Li Changsheng, but Li Changsheng slapped it on the ground with one hand. It had no power to fight back, so it could only cry to the little master for help.
"Stop messing around."
Jing Baiyu said helplessly: "Let's go quickly, maybe we will be able to find Zou Yu at dawn."
Li Changsheng said: "Let's rest first, you haven't rested all day. Besides, there is only one horse left, and it is very tired. I'm afraid it won't be able to run."
Jing Baiyu felt that there was some truth to it, but now he felt very uneasy, and only hoped that everything would end soon.
"Come here, I'll hug you." Li Changsheng waved to Jing Baiyu and said, "There seems to be a house over there, let's go and spend the night."
Li Changsheng knew that Jing Baiyu was absolutely too tired to walk, but he was reluctant to say it.
Jing Baiyu quickly shook her head and said, "I don't want you to hug me, you must be more tired than me."
It was Li Changsheng who took care of him along the way. Before, he carried Zou Yu on his back and hugged him for a long time, which was definitely much harder than himself.
"Children have to be obedient, do you understand?"
As Li Changsheng said, he walked over and bent down, hugged Jing Baiyu directly, and said, "Close your eyes and fall asleep first, so you can replenish your energy."
Jing Baiyu couldn't resist him, so she could only lie in his arms and nodded obediently.
The little tiger saw that the little master was picked up, and it jumped quickly, wanting to run into the little master's arms, and let the little master hold it.
It's just that Li Changsheng is too tall, and the little tiger can't jump that high all at once, so he can only walk around Li Changsheng, and there is nothing he can do.
Li Changsheng looked down at the little tiger condescendingly, and said, "Now you are looking at me pitifully, why don't you look like this just now?"
"Aww!" The little tiger confronted Li Changsheng with his round eyes.
In the end, Li Changsheng asked the little tiger to come up too. Judging by the little tiger's appearance, he must be very tired.Anyway, just now they were downstairs at the city gate, if it wasn't for the sudden appearance of the little tiger, it would be difficult for them to escape. The little tiger is a great hero, and deserves a little praise and reward.
Li Changsheng hugged Jing Baiyu, Jing Baiyu hugged the little tiger, and the little tiger hugged the rabbit puppet.Not long after, Jing Baiyu's eyes became heavy, and he fell asleep very quickly.
Jing Baiyu actually had a fever and felt very uncomfortable. Coupled with the constant pain in his back, it was already an overload for a child of his size.
Now that it was quiet, Jing Baiyu couldn't bear it anymore, and fell asleep directly, sleeping very soundly.
He was in a dream, when he suddenly heard the cries of the little tiger, as well as some strange laughter and voices.
Jing Baiyu opened his eyes and rubbed them in confusion.
"This little baby is awake!"
"Yeah, it seems to be awake."
The first thing that came into view was not Li Changsheng's familiar face, but a few strong men with unshaven beards.
"Ho-"
Jing Baiyu gasped, her whole body was startled, and she turned over quickly.
The little tiger took a look, and immediately jumped in front of Jing Baiyu, as if wanting to protect the little master.
Just look at a dozen or so big men surrounding them, it's like an iron bucket, there is no gap at all.
Jing Baiyu's eyeballs twitched wildly, trying to find a breakthrough to break out of the encirclement, but there was no way.
Jing Baiyu couldn't stop sizing up the dozen or so people carefully, her heart suddenly turned cold, and it became colder and colder, she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave.
The dozen or so big men were all tall and burly, with big knives in their hands, all of them were wearing coarse cloth shorts, not very trimmed, and unkempt.
This outfit...
Isn't it the fake bandits who attacked them during the landslide?
Jing Baiyu quickly circled around and said anxiously, "Li Changsheng? Li Changsheng?"
There were only tiger cubs and bandits around him, and Li Changsheng was nowhere to be seen.
Jing Baiyu was even more panicked. She didn't care much for a while, and shouted: "Li Changsheng? What did you do to Li Changsheng! What about others! What about others! If you dare to touch him, I..."
"Hahaha, this little doll is really interesting."
The big guys didn't wait for him to say anything, they burst into laughter and said, "Little baby, stop shouting. You mean the man next to you?"
Jing Baiyu looked at them vigilantly, her fists clenched tightly.
A big man said: "Is he your uncle? You can rest assured that he is fine! He has already sold your little nephew and the little tiger to us. We kindly let him go after seeing it. Anyway, it is okay to keep him." It's useless to waste rations."
"Sell……"
Jing Baiyu's eyes widened, with a look of disbelief on his face, he said, "Impossible... How could Li Changsheng sell me to you? He won't leave me alone..."
Jing Baiyu had a severe headache, she muttered, the more she said, the more she felt aggrieved, her eyes turned red uncontrollably.
"Haha," another big man said, "Why not? As soon as we frighten him, he gets scared, so he simply said that we would throw you down to pay off the debt, and let us let him go!"
"Bullshit!"
Jing Baiyu was still confused at first, but after hearing it again, she became firmer and said, "What was Li Changsheng afraid of? Don't you think about lying before you tell a lie? Where is he?"
"He... oops!"
One of the burly men wanted to speak, but a chestnut was thrown from behind.
"Oh, it hurts me to death, Second Leader!" The big man turned his head to look at the person who hit him on the back of the head, but he didn't dare to be stubborn, and said with a smile, "Second Leader, why did you hit me?"
The visitor was quite tall, and seemed to be comparable to Li Changsheng, but he was much stronger than Li Changsheng, almost bigger than a cow, giving people a sense of oppression.
That man was the second in command in the bandit's mouth, he looked down at Jing Baiyu, and said: "What are you doing, bullying a child, it's really shameless! Who are you going to throw at me?"
The bandits hurriedly smiled and said, "It's not that we brothers, watching the little baby wake up, just play with him. Second boss, tell me, when did we have such a big baby in our cottage? Look It hurts a lot, but it's more interesting, I really can't hold back."
Jing Baiyu was a little dazed, these people are...
tease yourself?
Jing Baiyu's face was originally pale, but now she turned green with anger, staring at those big men viciously.
The big men also knew that they had done something embarrassing, so they hurriedly smiled and said, "Little baby, don't mind, we are just playing a joke on you. A man must be able to take a joke! Don't you think so? "
Jing Baiyu didn't tell them this, and said solemnly: "Where did Li Changsheng go! What did you do to him!"
"Oh, you little boy has such a temper." A bandit said, "How can you call uncle by his first name?"
"You tease him again, be careful that the second boss will beat you again." Another bandit said.
"I'm here." A voice suddenly appeared.
"Li Changsheng!"
Jing Baiyu didn't have time to listen to their jokes, so she saw a tall man walking in from the outside, pushed aside the crowd, and came to Jing Baiyu.
Jing Baiyu called out to Li Changsheng, jumped up and rushed over, hugged Li Changsheng's leg, and said, "Where did you go? I thought you were in danger! I was scared to death..."
Li Changsheng patted Jing Baiyu's shoulder, and said in a warm voice, "Don't be afraid, with uncle here, nothing will happen to you."
"What uncle?" Jing Baiyu looked up at him.
Li Changsheng smiled at him with a rather inscrutable smile.
The second master patted the case next to him and said: "Don't talk nonsense, you just said good things, don't go back on your word!"
Li Changsheng smiled and said, "Of course I won't regret it."
Jing Baiyu was even more perplexed, and said, "What's going on here? I can't understand what you all said."
Li Changsheng leaned over to Jing Baiyu's ear and said, "Don't worry, I'll talk to you slowly in a while. You're only waking up now. It's serious to fill your stomach first."
He said that's all, and said to the second head: "My nephew is hungry, I wonder if I can get some food."
"That's easy to say." The second master was very generous, nodded, and asked the younger brother next to him to bring food and meat.
That's all for the Erdang's family to give orders, and then said: "You guys have something to eat and rest for a while, then we have to go back to the cottage, don't delay the trip any longer."
"Okay." Li Changsheng said: "We have no problem."
Li Changsheng led Jing Baiyu into the room together and closed the door.
Li Changsheng then said: "Your fever has subsided, but do you feel better?"
Jing Baiyu reached out and touched her forehead, only to realize that apart from the pain, she didn't feel too much nausea and dizziness, and said, "Really, I don't have a fever anymore."
"Yes." Li Changsheng said: "You have been sleeping for two days, if you still have a fever, I'm afraid you will scare me to death."
"Slept for two days?!"
Jing Baiyu looked at him in amazement, and said, "You didn't tease me?"
"Of course not." Li Changsheng said, "Not long after you fell asleep, we met the group outside."
"Those bandits?" Jing Baiyu whispered, "Why didn't they kill us, instead gave us dry food and meat? It's so strange."
Logically speaking, that group of bandits might be with King Zhao Liang. Now that the emperor has fallen into King Zhao Liang's trap, they have found a fake prince to help out. Jing Baiyu, the real prince, is useless and should be chopped down. It is to avoid future troubles.
but……
Li Changsheng saw his puzzled look, and said with a smile: "Because those outside are indeed bandits, but the ones we met before were not real bandits."
"I, I'm a little confused..."
Jing Baiyu felt that she had just woken up, her mind was still confused, and she couldn't understand what was going on now.
Li Changsheng said: "While you are eating, I will explain it to you in detail."
"Okay." Jing Baiyu said obediently.
The little tiger followed along, and it seemed that it was hungry, and it was already lying down on the ground to eat, and it didn't care whether it was a vegetable leaf or a piece of meat, and it was eating happily.
That day Li Changsheng was walking forward with Jing Baiyu in his arms, and Jing Baiyu fell into a deep sleep. Li Changsheng thought that there would be a house in front of him, but the house was not a resident, but a ruined temple, obviously no one had worshiped it for a long time.
There is nothing to eat in the ruined temple, but it is covered by a tile head, so you can still rest in it.Li Changsheng originally planned to take Jing Baiyu there, but who would have expected that someone would have already taken over the ruined temple when he got there.
A group of big men dressed as bandits gathered in the ruined temple, there were quite a few of them.
When Li Changsheng saw all the bandits at first glance, he felt a "thump" in his heart, and when he thought about going out with Jing Baiyu, he felt that the bandits from before might have found them. If Li Changsheng brought Jing Baiyu inside, he would have fallen into a trap.
Taking advantage of the fact that the bandits hadn't noticed him, Li Changsheng quickly left quietly holding Jing Baiyu.
"But unfortunately." Li Changsheng said it calmly, "When I left, I was caught by the second boss."
The second head of the family was bringing a few younger brothers up from the mountainside, and happened to meet Li Changsheng who was leaving in a hurry.It was conceivable that although Li Changsheng knew a little about Sanda, he couldn't beat these bandits.
The second leader was as strong as a cow, and it was a bit difficult for Li Changsheng to deal with him alone, let alone the others.
In this way, Li Changsheng, Jing Baiyu, and the little tiger were detained in the ruined temple.
At that time, Jing Baiyu was not in a deep sleep, but passed out due to a high fever. Although there was a lot of movement around her, she had no intention of waking up at all.
The second leader tied up Li Changsheng and said, "Who are you?"
Li Changsheng's hands were tied, Ben lowered his head, his eyes were shaking slightly, he thought about it in his heart, and he planned how to speak.It's just that the second master opened his mouth first, which made Li Changsheng a little confused.
who……
As soon as the second master opened his mouth, the bandits next to him started booing and said, "Yeah, who are you? You are disheveled, but you are dressed really well. I'm afraid you are sons of rich people?"
"Is this your son?"
"It doesn't look like it, it looks different."
Li Changsheng opened his mouth tentatively and said, "This is my nephew. We came from a far away place. We took him on a trip to the mountains and rivers. I didn't expect to meet bad people on the way."
"A villain?! What a villain!"
Those bandits were not suspicious of Li Changsheng's words, but seemed to be very interested in the villain Li Changsheng said.
If it was really the group of fake bandits from before, how could they fail to recognize the young prince Jing Baiyu?I am afraid that they have already been chopped up and wiped out by them.
Li Changsheng pondered in his heart, this group of bandits might be real, so they would be fake.
Erdangjia also frowned when he heard the word "bad person".
The bandit next to him asked excitedly: "Is it similar to us, and also looks like a bandit?"
"This..." Li Changsheng pretended to be suspicious, and said, "Are you not in the same group? No matter how I look at you, there is no difference."
"Pooh!"
A bandit spat angrily, and said: "What kind of gang, those individuals are just a bunch of fakes! We are the serious bandits! The bandit village in Bai'an Mountain outside Sanyou City! Have you ever heard of it?"
The bandit held his chest up and looked proud, which really made Li Changsheng a little amused.
Li Changsheng shook his head and said, "I've never heard of it."
"Haven't heard of it?" The bandit said: "We are famous in this area! Do you understand that we are robbing the rich and giving to the poor?"
"What nonsense are you talking to him?" Another bandit said anxiously, "Tell me, those villains who attacked you, where did they go? Do you know!"
Li Changsheng listened carefully and had some calculations in his mind.These two groups of bandits, the real and the fake, probably had some grievances and enmities involved, but Li Changsheng felt that there was an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Li Changsheng nodded and said: "I know, I know, it's just..."
"Just what?" Erdangjia said suddenly, his voice was like a bell, and the other bandits stopped talking as soon as he spoke.
Li Changsheng said: "It's just that my nephew is seriously ill and was injured by those bandits. I don't know how many heroes can save my poor nephew first."
"Second boss, look, those bastards hurt even children!"
"Yeah, it's so inhumane!"
"They even dare to occupy our cottage, what else they dare not!"
"No, Second Master, we have to find them quickly and let them know how powerful we are!"
A bunch of bandits chattered, and the ruined temple was almost overturned in an instant.
Jing Baiyu was surprised when he heard it, and said: "So, it was bandits fighting with bandits?"
Li Changsheng nodded and said, "Exactly."
Originally, three trips to Bo'an Mountain outside the city
