Chapter 172 Chapter 172


Chapter 172 A woman came out of the snow house and looked at Gu Jianli and his party in surprise.

That little girl is called Daya.

The little girl said: "I met my brother when we were catching rabbits."

The woman shook her head, said nothing, and bent back again.

After walking for a while, we arrived at the home of the siblings.

On such a cold day, the father of two children was shirtless and chopping pig bones with a big knife.

There was some blood scattered in the small yard, it was obvious that the pig had just been killed.

The woman squatted on the other side and immersed the slaughtered hen in boiling hot water until it softened so that it would be easier to pluck the feathers.

"Daddy, Mom, my sister and I met a strange person."

Ermao stopped hiding behind his sister and ran to his mother, looking at the chicken in the hot water and licking the corners of his mouth.

Both men and women stopped what they were doing and looked at Gu Jianli and his group in surprise.

Gu Jianli spoke first: "We got lost in the snowy mountains.

We thought we were going to bury ourselves in the snowy mountains.

Unexpectedly, we met Da Ya and Er Mao.

We just came to ask for a cup of hot water to warm ourselves up.

We will leave soon.

We will definitely not If it’s inconvenient for you.”

The man interrupted Gu Jianli and asked in surprise: "How could you get lost so deep in this mountain?"

The accents of the two children are unclear, but the man's accent is obviously not like that of a Central Plains person.

Thinking that the men I met outside were all tall, I thought that the people who came to their village were indeed not from the Central Plains, at least not from their ancestors.

Gu Jianli became embarrassed and said the excuse he had prepared for a long time: "I am originally from a wealthy family in Tongxiang, and I am in love with my husband.

However, there is a long-standing enmity between the two families, so we beat each other.

In desperation, my husband and I left home.

Escape, live in hiding The days when I kept my name were only five years old when my family found a hiding place.

They considered me a shame and sent servants to take us back.

Naturally, my family refused.

I didn’t expect my husband to do the same. injured" Gu Jianli lowered his eyes and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

He looked pitiful and heartbroken.

The couple looked at each other, and then glanced at Ji Wujing on Changfeng's back.

The woman said, "I've had a lot of hardships along the way.

I'm so sorry for you.

Let's go inside to warm up first."

The outside of the snow house looked like it was buried in snow, but I never thought it was very warm inside.

A brazier was placed in the middle of the room with some sweet potatoes in it.

A little boy of twelve or thirteen years old squatted in front of the brazier, roasting sweet potatoes.

The smell of roasted sweet potatoes is delicious.

Ji Xingluo, who was lying quietly in Gu Jianli's arms, his eyelashes trembling, opened his eyes and looked straight at the sweet potatoes in the brazier.

Da Mao saw it and asked: "Do you want to eat?"

Ji Xinglu lowered his head again, buried his face in Gu Jianli's arms, and said nothing.

The woman followed and pointed at her eldest son and ordered: "Da Mao, let the guests warm themselves up by the fire.

Go to the stove, open the pot, and add two more scoops of rice."

Not long after, it was time for dinner.

The family's surname is Chen, and the man's name is Chen Wang.

The Chen family and his wife added bowls and chopsticks and invited Gu Jianli and his party to eat together.

The snow house is not a big place and it is a bit crowded with everyone sitting together.

"New Year's Day is coming soon, and everyone in the village has been killing pigs and chickens recently, so you guys are in luck.

If you had come two days earlier, you wouldn't have been able to eat."

Aunt Chen said.

The Chen family and his wife were not stingy people.

Even though they had guests, they did not hide the meat dishes and put them out in a generous manner.

However, Gu Jianli knew that the farmers lived in poverty, so he did not touch the family's meat and only ate some roasted sweet potatoes.

Chen Wang asked again: "What are your plans?"

"I have an aunt who loves me very much.

I originally planned to go to her this time.

When daybreak, we will leave and go to my aunt."

Gu Jianli said.

Chen Wang nodded and said nothing.

But Aunt Chen said: "Sister, you have also seen that my house is small.

I can only spare one room for you to make do with for one night at most.

Don't dislike the crowding."

"Brother Chen and sister-in-law are kind enough to help us and are very happy that they didn't turn us away.

How could they dislike it?"

Gu Jianli lowered his head, took off a bracelet from his wrist and handed it to Aunt Chen.

"What are you doing?

If I don't accept it, our small village has no need for gold and silver."

"For Brother Chen and sister-in-law, it's just a piece of cake, but for us, it's a real help in times of need.

I don't have anything else on me, and this bracelet is not valuable.

It just looks better, so I can give it to Da Ya to play with." ” Da Ya stretched her neck to look, and her eyes were straight.

No matter how ignorant Aunt Chen is, she still knows that this bracelet is worth a lot of money.

She hesitated for a moment, then quickly packed it up and handed it to Da Ya.

Ji Xing missed Da Ya and glanced at her.

After eating, Gu Jianli asked Aunt Chen for a piece of ginger, and asked Qian Shun to make a bowl of ginger soup and feed it to Ji Xing.

Ji Xing drank the ginger soup and said, "I want to play with Ermao."

"Okay, but you can only play for a short while and then come back immediately."

Gu Jianli said.

Ji Xingluo agreed.

Qian Shun sat down next to Gu Jianli, beat her legs tiredly, and whispered: "Madam, you asked me to make ginger soup in person, are you afraid that the Chen family will be poisoned?

I see that they are simple people, so they won't Bar" Gu Jianli turned his face sideways, stared at Ji Wujing lying on the bed, and said, "You must be on guard against others."

Qian Shun sat and rested for a while, then went to the kitchen and brought some hay in.

The four masters, servants and one child were crowded into this small room.

Naturally, she and Changfeng had to sleep on the floor.

Gu Jianli whispered: "Just do it for a show, there is no need to lay it too carefully.

We won't wait for dawn and leave at night."

Xian obeyed her words, but in her heart she was wondering if Madam was too cautious.

After turning off the lights, Gu Jianli hugged Ji Xinglu and rested beside Ji Wujing.

Although she closed her eyes as if asleep, she was still wide awake.

She reached out and touched Ji Xingluo's forehead and found that he was not as feverish as in the afternoon, which made her feel a little relieved.

She leaned close to Ji Xingluo's ear and whispered: "Xingluo, don't sleep too deeply.

We will leave when the family falls asleep."

The sound of Da Mao, Da Ya and Er Mao laughing and joking next door faded away, and Chen Wang and his wife also took a break.

It was late at night, Gu Jianli and his party quietly got up and left quietly.

As soon as they left, several people from the village climbed over the wall and entered.

Aunt Chen, who was asleep, suddenly sat up.

"Why are you sleeping?

Don't cause trouble."

Chen Wang said impatiently.

Aunt Chen hesitated and lay down again.

In the silence, she heard the footsteps very clearly.

She turned over irritably and covered her head with the quilt.

She felt sorry for Gu Jianli in her heart, but it was a pity that she couldn't control it.

There are not many good people in this village, and everyone's life is on their hands.

Chen Wang persuaded his wife again: "On weekdays, everyone is in peace and no one cares about other people's affairs.

When encountering such a thing, we can only turn a blind eye.

Today, we did not add insult to injury to that family.

You are already kind-hearted.

Don’t get involved blindly.”

Seven or eight men climbed over the wall and entered in vain.

Gu Jianli and his party had already escaped first.

Several men cursed in different accents, no longer shying away, and pursued them openly and openly holding lanterns.

"They are indeed chasing us, but Madam has the foresight," Qian Shun said angrily, "We are just passing by, we don't have any deep hatred, why should we have evil intentions to harm us?

It's obviously a leak in the house and it rains all night."

When Gu Jianli entered the village, he noticed a man standing on the roadside with a tattoo behind his ear.

That's a tattoo that only people who have committed the death penalty get.

Therefore, she became vigilant.

The people in the village soon caught up, and someone had to stop him.

In a panic, Gu Jianli saw a small cart randomly placed on the roadside.

It should be used by people in the village to push vegetables.

Gu Jianli hurriedly asked Changfeng to put Ji Wujing on the car, and also put Ji Xingluo on it.

She and Qian Shun pushed the car, and Changfeng freed his hands to intercept the villagers who were catching up.

He was not willing to fight, he only stopped and protected others from running out of the village.

But just after escaping from the village, Changsheng's expression suddenly changed.

He heard the sound of swords opening the way, and the guardsmen were chasing him.

Compared with these villagers taking refuge, the Imperial Guards are the ones who really need the embankment.

"Madam, go west, don't look back."

Changfeng flipped his wrist and pulled out the soft sword coiled around his waist, glowing with a dark light in the dark night.

At the tip of the sword, the villager at the front fell to the ground.

The people behind him stopped and became cautious.

They were all people who had passed by the tip of the sword.

Changfeng's sword had already made them see his extraordinary martial arts.

Changfeng protected Gu Jianli and others from fleeing the village, but did not follow them.

He had to stay here and kill all the imperial guards who discovered this place first.

Several men in the village also quickly discovered the imperial guards.

They looked at each other, understood, and ran in the other direction.

So, when Gu Jianli and Yanshun pushed the cart around a rock, they saw seven or eight strong villagers waiting in front.

After all, they don't know the terrain better than the villagers.

Qian Shun gritted her teeth and said cruelly: "Madam, you take the fifth master and the young master away, I will stop them."

"How do you stop me?"

Gu Jianli refused without hesitation.

Gu Jianli let go of the handle of the cart, stood up, looked squarely at the people blocking him in front of him, and said loudly: "We orphans and widows are passing by here, and we don't dare to cause any trouble to you, so why do you have to kill them all?"

The leader of the men grinned and said, "We are hiding here peacefully, but you brought outsiders here and broke our peace, and you have the nerve to say you won't cause us any trouble."

Another man looked Gu Jianli and Qian Shun up and down, and said: "In our place, women are precious.

Only several men can share one woman.

When immortals like you come here, it is a gift from God to men.

Don't I’m thinking about leaving, staying here honestly, and giving birth to children for the men is the most important thing.”

Qian Shun was so angry that she burst into tears.

She rolled up her sleeves and said angrily: "I'll fight them to the death."

Gu Jianli pulled Yuanshun, looked at the people opposite, and said loudly without fear: "Okay, we will go back to the village with you."

Procrastinate, put it off for another day.

No, maybe it will only take half a day.

Gu Jili said this in his heart.

"You bitch, you don't know what your plans are.

Are you waiting for reinforcements?"

The man with a Beijing accent sneered, "Don't worry, let the guys try it out first before going back, hahaha."

Several other people also laughed loudly. gd1806102:
