Chapter 11 Encirclement
Out of Jinling City, Shan Xiaowu still hung the radish with a fishing rod and coaxed the little donkey and black man all the way south.
In the early morning of July, the morning dew had not completely disappeared. The rising sun was half suspended like a salted egg yolk. The breeze blew towards me, gently lifting the corners of his clothes and the tip of his hair. Shan Xiaowu hung his head and swayed on the donkey. Each person and the donkey looked lazy and weak.
Scratching the little donkey's neck, thinking that his family thousands of miles away was waiting for him, Shan Xiaowu unconsciously grinned and giggled.
Before she traveled time, she was the boss of the family. Whenever she was bullied and could only be silently wronged by herself, she always hoped that there would be a brother or sister to help her vent her anger. Today, she loved the simple man. Once she traveled through time, she had two more brothers to make her dream come true - although it was later found that those two A cheap brother who wakes up from her dreams at the beginning is the best species who likes to squeeze her sister's paper. The two little demons pretend to be obedient and secretly bully her, her sister, who has not yet grown up, made her experience the bitterness of being a little sister.
Big brother Shan Jinlin, the owner of most of Shanfu's business today, has a profiteer's mind and a weak scholar appearance that does not meet his identity at all. Although he always smiles and seems to be gentle and harmless, in fact, in private, he is a scheming explosion and nagging, which will definitely make people crazy. One.
From the first time he saw Shan Xiaowu in her baby, Shan Jinlin sworely pinched her face and promised everyone that he would definitely love her sister in the future - so he threw her to the ground nine times when she was still a baby ten times and then rushed up and crushed her with his body. Wu finally cried and believed that this big brother really hurts her very much.
And the second brother, Shan Baoqian, is simply a reincarnation of money. He always has a golden abacus around his neck, and he can also calculate a large amount of money with anyone anytime and anywhere. His interest is to make money, his hobby is to cheat money, and his biggest ideal is to count money until his hand cramps.
At present, he is in charge of Shanfu's account and finances. Even Shan's father and mother have to get the consent of the second son to get the money, not to mention her little sister who has no right to speak when she was a child. The pocket money given to her by her parents has never been cheated by the second brother for various reasons, resulting in that she will bear it once she has money later. She was so scared that she couldn't wait to dig a hole and hide it first - but Fortunately, she was squeezed a lot, and she also learned a unique skill, that is, stealing... Well, cough, borrow other people's money. Of course, the most borrowed is her second brother's - anyway, with the ability of the second brother, this silver goes out for a few laps, the most After that, I will still obediently return to the bank of the Shan family.
However, in addition to the evil situation when he was a child, Shan Jinlin and Shan Baoqian became more and more sensible when he grew up, and also knew that it was time to protect her sister - although Qian was insting, sometimes there would be too much protection once or twice, just like now -
It's just that after staying in Jingzhou City for two more days, she received three consecutive letters of 800-mile urgent flying pigeons. If it hadn't been for the promise in her last reply that the day after tomorrow, the mother who had become a disaster would have seen her face to relieve the pain of lovesickness. It is estimated that her eldest brother would have rushed to Jingzhou to catch people in a hurry. .
It has always been an indelible memory in her heart. When she dreams back at midnight, she will always think of modern relatives and feel sad. The only fortunate thing is that the family she was reborn in can not only make her life worry-free, but also a pair of parents and two brothers. It hurts her to the bottom of her heart. I can't wait to hold all the fun things in the world in front of her - it's so good that she almost forget the resentment of being forced to travel - maybe this is more or less another disguise to make up for God.
Although Shanfu is not as rich as those rich businessmen in the capital, it is also a well-known rich family in the Yanzhou area. She is destined to be a daughter who has been held in the palm of the whole family since she was born.
Just crossed... To be precise, when she was just born, people in Yanzhou City saw the golden light on the roof of Shanfu, and they could faintly see that the golden light showed a big ingot. Everyone said that she, the young lady of the single family, was very lucky - and the facts really proved that she was indeed a super prosperous child. .
Since she was born, the Shan family has been complacent in all kinds of business. Not only has the business scope become more extensive, but the business is getting bigger and bigger. Shan Qiuchai, the old male owner of the single house, suddenly started from the unknown little rice shop owner with the strong fortune of her baby daughter's own plug-in. Next, he became the second richest businessman in Yanzhou, including the development of various industries such as transportation, silk, textile and restaurant operation.
The indearable legend of his family history is still talked about, and Shan Xiaowu himself has become popular in the whole city of Yanzhou because of the title of the girl who attracts money. Before he can, many people proposed marriage to the god of wealth, which really makes the family laugh and cry.
The lively nature of a single five-born has never been the master of Ken'anfen. If you can't learn, you can't get out of the door. Instead, you can't go through the wall, climb the dog hole, wear men's clothing, go to the casino, go to the brothel, fight in the brothel, and even gather all the little beggars in the city to set up an independent gang that specialize in the strong and help the weak - just Later, Mrs. Shan, who was threatened to hang herself, crying and her mother, had to disband in advance.
Every time Shan Xiaowu thinks of this matter, he sighs and regrets very much. If she had been able to hold her mother's tears firmly at the beginning, maybe she would have become a powerful beggar gang leader and become famous in the world.
"Oh, it's all life..."
She shook her head and burst out such a sentence, and a woman who floated with emotion in her heart looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle... Tut, the sun is really poisonous, so it's better to find a cool place to squat first.
His body had been roasted into a thin sweat by the sun. Shan Xiaowu reached out and patted the little black donkey's head and urged it to leave quickly.
When it was getting dark, a donkey swayed into a small forest.
As usual, tie the little black donkey to the branch next to him, leave enough space for it to move freely, then take out the fire folds, pick up some firewood, and raise the bonfire lighting.
Too lazy to play wild animals, Shan Xiaowu took out two pancakes from the bag on the donkey's back, tore some dried meat, and ate the tea he bought.
After dinner, the water in the water bag was simply clean. The night had quietly come, and the stars in the sky could be faintly seen from the branches.
He threw some dry firewood into the fire and listened to the beep of firewood burning in his ear. Shan Xiaowu yawned, stretched out, got up and unloaded the homemade sleeping bag from the little black donkey's back, spread it out, and prepared to rest as soon as possible and go home early tomorrow.
As soon as he got into the sleeping bag and lay down, he turned it back and forth. Before he could sleep soundly, he heard a very light sound of branches breaking. Shan Xiaowu frowned, and the sense of crisis immediately raised his head. He subconsciously swept away the backpack that was used as a pillow and put his ears to the ground. Sure enough, he heard the slightly messy footsteps getting closer and closer.
Someone! And there is more than one!
Before he had time to think about it, Shan Xiaowu quickly got up, randomly stuffed the sleeping bag into a pile, raised his hand to sprinkle the water in the water bag on the fire, and then quickly found a tree and climbed up.
As soon as he huddled himself behind the branch, several figures appeared below, all of whom were armed with weapons and their faces were arrogant. Obviously, they had bad intentions.
With the help of the moonlight, he reluctantly looked at the faces of several people. Shan Xiaowu was sure that none of them knew him. In the middle of the night, it was a barren mountain. What on earth are these people going to do?
"Where are the people? Are you sure it's here?"
"That's right. Liuzi can't be wrong to see him enter the forest with his own eyes."
The person below looked through and didn't find Shan Xiaowu. Instead, someone pulled the little black donkey who had been retreating.
"I've looked for it. No one is tying this guy not far away." When the speaker saw that the little black donkey was still struggling, he raised his foot and kicked it fiercely against its front leg.
Hearing the tragic hissing of Heizi, Shan Xiaowu trembled with heartache. He couldn't wait to sweep the man to the Buddha with a mace on the spot to repent.
"It's strange. I saw a fire just now. Why didn't I see anyone in the blink of an eye?" One of the middle-aged men with a big black mole on his face plucked the still smoking carbon pile with the tip of his knife and turned his head to the person behind him.
"Go ahead. The fire has just been extinguished, and the boy must not be far away."
"Wait, don't chase!"
Suddenly someone raised his voice and inserted it. Shan Xiaowu's heart trembled, and he burst into goose bumps in an instant. The sound was... a little familiar.
"Master." When the people under the tree heard the words, they raised their knives one after another and bowed their heads to the man in white who was slowly coming.
Shan Xiaowu tried his best to lean down and fixed his eyes. He immediately opened his mouth in surprise, because the last man in white who appeared was the one she had met once. The owner of the Tiancheng Martial Arts Museum with an extremely narrow belly, Xiao Tiancheng, who was known as the Fast Knife Man!
No wonder she just felt that the voice was familiar, but she didn't expect it to be him.
To talk about Xiao Tiancheng, although the title of Jianghu is Kuai Daoxia, and he has opened a martial arts school that teaches people to practice martial arts, he looks like a deceptive teacher. Usually, he doesn't like to wear his famous weapon, but likes to shake a paper fan and pretend to be romantic, dressed in white clothes, and there are also a lot of The young woman was easily deceived by his appearance.
"Strange, what is he doing here..."
Shan Xiaowu hugged the sleeping bag in his arms and bit his lips. He was puzzled. Did he come to kill her?
But she should not have offended him recently. Even if she saw him plotted on others last time, she pretended to be completely unaware of it in a low profile, or... or... By the way, yesterday's wedding!
As soon as Shan Xiaowu's eyes lit up, he almost immediately thought of the group of one-eyed dragons. According to them, it was Mr. Gao who married Xiao Tiancheng's ex-wife, so they deliberately went to provoke. If this was instructed by Xiao Tiancheng, it is impossible to guarantee that he would also hide in a corner of the scene to watch this farce directed by him yesterday. .
In this way, it makes a statement. He must have seen her provoked and instigated in the crowd that day, so he was in a hurry to bring people to revenge.
Thinking of this, Shan Xiaowu couldn't help patting his chest and breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he ran quickly just now, otherwise he would have been cut into 18 sections of exposed in the wilderness.
"Master, although the boy is not here, he should not be far away. Look..." The middle-aged man with the big black mole he just talked just walked a few steps closer to Xiao Tiancheng and asked in a low voice, "Why don't let someone guard it and set it on fire... In this case, the boy will definitely..." He stretched out his hand and pulled horizontally on his neck. Make.
"No need." Xiao Tiancheng glanced at the big black mole and hit the palm of his hand with a paper fan, looking disapproving.
"Master, what you mean..." The big black mole couldn't figure out what he meant, so he had to laugh with him.
"That boy can't run far. He... has always been here!"
As soon as the words fell, Xiao Tiancheng picked up his eyes and raised his hand, and immediately three cold lights quickly shot at the trunk of the tree where Shan Xiaowu was hiding.
Shan Xiaowu was shocked and quickly curled up and dodged, but it was still too late. Although the sleeping bag made of rhinoceros cowhide in his arms blocked two silver needles for himself, the leaking one penetrated her arm impartially.
"Well..."
The silver needle was obviously poisoned. Not long after it got stuck in the meat, the skin around her began to darken. A strong sense of paralysis came from the injured area, and her forehead was so painful that she sweated coldly.
Relying on his arm alone could not support the weight of his whole body at all. Shan Xiaowu gritted his teeth and endured for a while. After all, he fell from the tree because of the gradual loss of strength of his right hand and rolled into the grass in confusion.
"Are you finally willing to come down?"
A pair of white boots stopped in front of her. Shan Xiaowu looked up and saw Xiao Tiancheng shaking the fan and looking down at her with an invincible face.
I didn't expect to fall into this bitch's hand. Shan Xiaowu sat up with his arm covered, stepped back a few steps, and stared at him fiercely, "What on earth do you want to do?"
"What do I want to do..." Xiao Tiancheng took the fan and laughed. Fuer stopped laughing and looked at Shan Xiaowu with a gloomy face. "Do you really think that no one has noticed what you did on the street yesterday?"
"..." Shan Xiaowu just stared at him with his head up and didn't answer.
"It's quite hard," Xiao Tiancheng sneered around Shan Xiaowu, "It's a pity that if you don't have so many mouths, I have the desire to pull you over to work for me..."
"Bah! Just you?" Shan Xiaowu grinded his teeth and spit on him with hatred. "Don't dream, and don't pee and take photos by yourself. Even if I die, I won't be in collusion with you. Seeing you are stained with my eyes, you'd better get out as far away."
"How can it be! Don't toast, don't eat fine wine!" After being robbed white by Shan Xiaowu, Xiao Tiancheng immediately changed his face and stepped back a few steps. He looked down at the corners of his clothes that had been spit on. He suddenly turned his head and roared at the people waiting beside him, "What are you still doing?" Kill him for me!"
"Yes, yes." The big black moles were shocked and quickly took a knife and ran to Shan Xiaowu.
"With you guys, do you want to kill me? Dream!" Shan Xiaowu pinched his painful arm and tried his best not to faint. On the other hand, he reached out and took out a projectile from his cloth bag and fell to the ground with all his strength.
With a touch, the pungent smoke immediately enveloped the whole forest. The big black mole and others did not dare to approach for fear of fraud. They could only wave the knife randomly. Even Xiao Tiancheng couldn't help but take a few steps back and raised his hand to cover his mouth and nose.
After the smoke dissipated, the eyes had been empty for a long time. Not only were the five small people not in place, but also the donkey that had just been forcibly pulled over disappeared.
"The museum... the museum owner, he, he... that boy is gone..."
"Don't I have eyes to see myself? Do you still need to say it?!" Xiao Tiancheng twisted his face and stared at the place where Shan Xiaowu disappeared. Suddenly, he raised his hand and slapped the big black mole fiercely, "Waste!"
"Damn it!" The big black mole was hit and dizzy, but he immediately knelt down on his knees and hurriedly, "Please forgive my life, master."
Get out of here! Don't let me see you again!" Xiao Tiancheng kicked him fiercely again, and then he shook his sleeve and turned away.
The big black mole and others quickly followed. After a while, the woods became quiet again.
When a group of people disappeared, Shan Xiaowu, whose face was covered with fallen leaves and dust, he awkwardly lifted his disguise, moved his body and climbed out of the small pit not far away, and turned over and lay on the ground.
He pulled out the whistle hidden in his sleeve and blew it a few times. The familiar bell in his ear came from far to near. Shan Xiaowu barely stood up with the tree trunk, reached out to touch the black man's jaw that arched his head straight into her arms, and then staggered up its back, lay on it, and let it stagger and carry itself forward.
