Seeing that the two of them were about to leave, Ying Bao didn't care whether the landlady would believe it or not, so he quickly called her to stop.
"Madam boss, please keep an eye on Sister Xiaojiu these two days and don't let her run away from you!"
The landlady was puzzled, "Why?"
Xiaojiu also tilted his little head in confusion.
[Oops, how do I explain this! We can't say that Xiaojiu will die in the near future. The landlady is afraid that she will kick us out directly after hearing this. 】
When Ying Baozheng didn't know how to explain, Tang Che spoke up at the right time.
"Recently, human traffickers have been running rampant in the city. The imperial court has also sent people to observe the people's sentiments to see if there are thieves causing trouble in the local area and whether there are corrupt officials colluding with bandits to exploit the people. Therefore, the boss lady should keep an eye on the children more and don't worry about the Chinese New Year. The restaurant is busy with business, allowing traffickers to take advantage of it."
[Little uncle is mighty! I'm worried that I can't find any reason. I'm crazy about my uncle, I'm crazy about my uncle, I'm banging against the big wall because of my uncle! 】
Tang Che lowered his head to meet Ying Bao's starry eyes, and the corners of his mouth were harder to press than AK.
He couldn't bear to let Ying Bao hit the wall for him.
The landlady couldn't help but take it seriously when she heard it. She sighed heavily as she thought that taxes had become heavier over the years, and thieves were causing trouble, making business even more difficult.
"There are thieves causing trouble, and the imperial court is doubling the tax revenue every year. Every family is in trouble. Let me tell you, the imperial court is here to increase taxes and suck the blood of the people again!"
After complaining for a few times, he told Xiaojiu a few words with fear and bluff.
Ying Bao also responded.
"Yeah! There is a Nian beast outside during Xiaojiu's New Year! The Nian beast likes to eat little milk babies like us with fine skin and tender meat. You must stay by your mother's side!"
Xiaojiu was successfully frightened, and held her mother's hand tightly with her two little hands, saying nothing and not letting go.
The next day, in the study room of the county lord's mansion.
"Sir, they have been staying in the restaurant next door recently." The waiter lowered his eyebrows and reported the information he found.
Hu Ren sat in the wheelchair with a gloomy face, his eyes falling on the letter paper in front of him.
It was the message sent to him by the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance.
The letter is full of content that draws a clear line with him. This is because he wants to dock his tail to save his life!
Hu Ren, carrying this half-broken body, was filled with anger and nowhere to vent. In just a few days, his life was so ruined!
He had just reached his thirties, and his promising future was ruined by that crazy woman and that piece of shit His Highness!
He swept the things on the table to the ground, and the servants serving in the room knelt on the ground in fear.
"Hey, why are you so angry?" The person who came was the person who stole his job a few days ago. "We haven't seen each other for a few days. How did Brother Hu get himself into this state?"
Hu Ren snorted coldly: "What are you doing here? Do you want to see my joke?"
"How dare I come to see your joke? This is not the person who sees you in pity and thinks of the contributions you have made over the years, and comes to make plans for you."
The man threw the letter in his sleeve to him, "As for whether you want to do what it says in the letter, that's up to you, but you're half-disabled, tsk-tsk-"
Hu Ren heard the sarcasm in the man's words, grabbed the inkstone on the case and threw it at him.
The man moved his steps to the side and sneered: "My wife and the housekeeper of my house stole food, and now she has become an eunuch. If I decide to fight to the death with the person who caused me to fall into this situation, you are really a coward!"
After that, he threw up his sleeves and left, leaving Hu Ren furious and overturning the table to the ground.
The movement was so big that it pulled the wound on his lower body, and he grinned in pain, almost losing his breath.
He caught a glimpse of the envelope that fell to the ground and asked someone to pick it up and bring it to him.
After taking it apart and looking at it, a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes. King Linan wanted to use his hands to kill Tang Che.
Thinking of everything that happened in the past few days, the pain in his body stimulated his nerves. He slowly closed his eyes and called his servant to give some instructions.
"The sky is high and the emperor is far away. Even if you are the prince or grandson, you can't suppress the local snake."
On the gray sky, a few stars flickered faintly. At this moment, the people were sleeping most deeply.
The sound of galloping horses' hooves was particularly clear in the silent night.
Dozens of bandits broke in and robbed of grain, oil and treasures. The county towns were large and small. The bandits targeted shops and soon arrived at the restaurant where Tang Che Yingbao lived.
The bandit leader waved his hand, and several people broke in and looted, smashing the wine to the ground.
The shopkeeper didn't even have time to change his clothes before he came out from the backyard to stop him.
"Stop smashing it! Stop smashing it! If you want money, I'll give it to you!"
He rushed forward and hugged a bandit, but was kicked to the ground and the wine can was thrown directly at him.
Immediately, a bloody hole was made in his head.
The proprietress saw this scene as soon as she came out of the backyard, and immediately rushed into the kitchen, waving a kitchen knife in each hand.
"I will fight with you!"
The bandit was startled by the appearance of the landlady, and quickly threw down the fire certificate and called for the brothers to retreat.
Tang Che had already woken up after hearing the noise on the street, and rushed to Ying Bao's room next door. He felt a little at ease when he saw Ying Bao rubbing his eyes.
"There's a fire——"
Someone shouted, and the guests in the restaurant were disturbed from their sweet dreams and left the room one after another.
There were blazing fires everywhere, and the guests were suddenly frightened and ran around.
The scene was chaotic for a while. Some people fell down the stairs and were instantly surrounded by flames. Some people jumped from the window and broke their legs to save their lives.
"Uncle, what happened?"
Ying Bao heard the noise outside, rubbed his eyes and yawned.
Tang Che helped Ying Bao put on her coat and snapped his fingers.
Three pieces of paper appeared silently.
"Owner."
"Take Yingbao and leave here first."
Ying Bao stared blankly at the man in black who suddenly appeared, and immediately woke up.
[Is this the legendary secret guard Deadpool? ! so hot! Will I have one in the future? ! I really want to have such a handsome secret guard! 】
Tang Che's whole body felt cold.
It was clear that the fire was blazing outside, but Sanzhi felt a little chilly.
Why did he feel that his master looked at him unkindly?
An illusion must be an illusion.
Just when he was about to reach out and pick up Ying Bao and leave, he was snatched away by a pair of big hands.
Tang Che picked up Ying Bao and said, "Capture the bandit leader and come see me."
Then he flew down from the three-story window.
Sanzhi:?
Ying Bao nestled in Tang Che's arms and had become accustomed to this state of climbing over eaves and walls. After landing, she looked towards the restaurant, which was filled with bright lights.
[Ouch, such a big fire! Is this a malicious arson by bandits? My uncle's words really came true. 】
[Oops, Xiaojiu didn’t die in this incident, right? 】
"Uncle, go and see Xiaojiu!" Ying Bao said eagerly.
Although Tang Che was unhappy that Ying Bao cared so much about others, he still carried Ying Bao to the main entrance of the restaurant.
As soon as the two arrived, they saw Sanzhi mingling with the bandits.
[Wow wow wow, the secret guard brother is so handsome! 】
During the days when Tang Ying was taken to the mountain by her master, her favorite thing was to read the story books of Traveling in the Jianghu, and she had a deep filter on people with strong martial arts skills.
Tang Che, who was holding Ying Bao, looked even darker as he watched Sanzhi and the bandits going back and forth.
It seems that in the future, his secret guards will have to show up in front of Ying Bao less often, so as not to use their screens to seduce his Ying Bao.
"Let go of my mother!"
The childish voice immediately caught Tang Ying's attention.
Through the firelight, I could see a bandit in the restaurant grabbing the boss's wife's wrist, and Xiaojiu hugged the bandit's calf.
The bandit kicked Xiao Jiu far away, and Xiao Jiu lay on the ground for a long time without getting up.
The fire quickly spread to the third floor. People outside poured buckets of water, but the fire was too big to have any effect.
There are even plans to spread to surrounding shops. If this continues, this street will be burned down.
A burned beam hit Xiao Jiu's direction, surrounding Xiao Jiu in a sea of fire.
"Xiaojiu!" The landlady pushed the bandit away with heartbreak and was about to rush into the sea of fire.
Tang Ying looked anxiously outside the door.
[The rain talisman cannot solve such a big fire at all. If it rains, it will definitely extinguish the fire, right! If I use the Rain Calling Formation, it will rain! 】
[But with my pitifully little karma and the months-long recovery period, I don’t care, my life is at stake! 】
"Little uncle, let me down quickly and help the secret guard brother catch the bad guys!" Ying Bao struggled out of Tang Che's arms.
Tang Che knew what Ying Bao was going to do, so he followed Ying Bao's words and put her down and walked in the direction of the bandits.
Tang Ying mobilized the only available karma in the sea of consciousness, and formed a seal with her hands: "Wind, rain, thunder and lightning, come quickly!"
There was a roar in the sky, and heavy rain poured down. Tang Che kept paying attention to Yingbao's side. When the heavy rain fell, he got an oil-paper umbrella from somewhere and held it on Yingbao's head.
The fire was quickly put out, and Tang Ying ran into the restaurant and saw Xiaojiu in the arms of the proprietress, crying out of breath.
When Tang Ying saw that Xiaojiu was fine, the aura around her body also changed from gray to warm orange.
[Xiao Jiu’s whole body’s energy has changed, huh? Why does it feel like I can use more karma than before! 】
[It turns out that saving people can gain karma. Although it is better than nothing, at this rate, how long will it take for me to use all the karma in the sea of consciousness? 】
The bandit leader was beaten severely by San Zhi and thrown into the restaurant, while the other bandits were also wailing on the ground.
The proprietress picked up the kitchen knife on the ground and wanted to stab the bandit leader a few times, but was stopped by the shopkeeper.
"Okay, madam, don't scare the child!"
The shopkeeper grabbed the kitchen knife and indicated with his eyes that the children were still there, "Fortunately, everyone is okay. The restaurant is gone, but we can still continue to work. I'm lucky that everyone is okay!"
The landlady gave up when she saw Xiaojiu and Yingbao who had finally stopped crying.
"Master, this man's martial arts skills are not low, he doesn't look like a simple bandit leader." Sanzhi said in a low voice.
Tang Che already had the answer in his mind, and it seemed that he was coming for them.
"The officers and soldiers are here!"
A group of officers and soldiers from Wuyangyang restrained the bandits on the ground one by one and prepared to escort them to the Yamen.
The officers and soldiers glanced at the bandit leader, then frowned and looked at Tang Che.
"Why don't you get out of the way quickly and handle the case impartially to catch the key criminal!"
Tang Che didn't even give him a look, but just scolded him.
"The fire was so intense that it was already dawn, so you came here slowly. If I were not here today, I'm afraid the whole street would be burned down! How could so many bandits enter the city without a pass? Could they be official bandits? Collusion?!”
