Seeing that Ren Yazi had come prepared, Su Jin ran back, dragged a wooden stick and chased after him on horseback.
Su Huairen and Su Nan also chased after the crowd.
Seeing that the crowd was being left further and further behind, Ren Yazi thought that he would succeed tonight, and the leader let out a sly smile.
"Boss, those people were punished with alcohol instead of toasting. A total of four children were captured tonight."
"Hmph! A bag of rice is not enough for them in the daytime. I am not used to these untouchables, ah..." Before the man in the lead could finish his words, the horse underneath him seemed to be hit by something. He took the horse and fell down.
"Boss!"
"Put the child down. If any of you dare to act rashly, I will kill him."
In the midst of the lightning and flint, a cold light flashed in Lin Miao's hand, and a cold dagger was pressed against the neck of the leader.
The leader Yazi saw that the pursuer was alone and didn't care what the hard object was against his neck.
He said hoarsely: "Catch him quickly. There are many of us, so there is no need to be afraid of him."
"Ah..." Lin Miao's hand exerted force, and the leader's neck hurt, and he couldn't help but cry out.
"Stop it. If you are wise, I will return your child to you. If you are not wise, don't blame us for being ruthless."
Several people got off their horses and surrounded Lin Miaoshou.
In the sacks on horseback, the children heard a whine coming from their mouths as someone came to rescue them.
"Shuashuashua..."
Renyazi drew his sword out of its sheath one after another.
Lin Miaoshou said coldly: "It seems that you won't shed tears until you see the coffin."
"Ouch!"
"Hero, spare your life, I'm just ignorant."
The leader Yazi felt blood dripping from his neck and begged quickly.
"Back off! Back off!"
"Boss! We can't go back empty-handed. We've already collected the deposit. How can we pay for the business if we go back empty-handed?"
"Do you want to kill me and take over the position of boss?"
When Su Jin arrived, he saw a stalemate between the two sides, with Renyazi and several people biting each other.
"Uncle Lin!"
Su Jin tightened the reins, turned over and dismounted.
"Ajin! Save the children quickly." Lin Miaoshou said and tightened his hand a little.
After a scream, Ren Yazi, the leader, completely collapsed to the ground.
"Hero, spare your life! Let him go, let him go quickly!"
The night wind blew, and the air was filled with the smell of blood.
Only then did the rest of the people realize that the other party was no ordinary villager.
After Su Jin dismounted, he ran straight to the horse carrying the sack. He quickly took off the sack from the horse's back and protected it behind him.
"Get out! If Master Rang sees you again, I will make sure you never come back." Lin Miao pushed the hostage in her hand hard and ran to Su Jin's side.
At this time, the sound of horse hooves came from far and near again.
"Go, go quickly!"
In the blink of an eye, Ren Yazi was so frightened that he peeed, climbed on the horse's back in embarrassment, and soon disappeared under the vast night.
"Uncle Lin, A Jin, where are the children!"
Jiang Shuyue waited until Grandma Xu woke up and then rode her horse to catch up.
"It's okay, the kids are all here."
Lin Miaoshou and Su Jin untied the sack and removed the cloth from the children's mouths.
The rescued children were so frightened that three of them cried "Wow".
"Aunt Yue!"
Xu Shuisheng didn't cry. He was hugged into a warm embrace when he came out of the sack.
"Shui Sheng, don't be afraid, Aunt Yue is here." Jiang Shuyue patted his back gently.
A faint fragrance lingers on the tip of the nose. If my mother was here, her arms would be as fragrant as Aunt Yue.
Jiang Shuyue could feel that the little person was holding back fear and stubbornly tensing up her body.
Lin Miaoshou and Su Jin delivered the children to the pursuers.
The man and woman who had lost their children knelt down, kowtowed, and kept saying words of thanks.
After a lot of trouble, it was almost dawn.
Seeing Grandma Xu crying while holding her grandson, everyone's eyes were wet.
Suisui, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up by crying, and he looked outside in confusion.
Jiang Shuyue walked into the carriage and took Suisui into her arms: "Be good, my dear. The thief has gone far."
Sui Sui put his arms around Jiang Shuyue's neck and said in a sweet voice, "Sui Sui is not afraid of death. Sui Sui will protect my mother."
The soft words were like a ball of cotton, stuck in Jiang Shuyue's heart, sour and a little breathless.
Ever since she came here, she had felt that she was the unluckiest person.
At this moment, she felt that she was the happiest.
An idea couldn't help but pop up in my mind, maybe the child's father was a warm man.
Mother and son slept in each other's arms.
Seeing that her grandson was safe and sound, Grandma Xu calmed down after her excitement subsided.
Lin Miaoshou and Su Huairen led the horse into the woods to chew on the withered grass.
Su Jin asked his mother and sister to go back to the carriage to rest while he took Su Nan to cook porridge.
Seeing that the rice in the rice bag had not decreased much, Su Jin felt puzzled.
Why is there so much rice?
He was puzzled and thought it was Lin Miaoshou who put all the rice he had brought together.
Everyone had breakfast and continued on their way.
"Miss, look there is a carriage on the opposite side."
Jiang Shuyue looked outside and saw Widow Li sitting on the shaft of a carriage, driven by a man who looked like a merchant.
A few days later, I looked at the lush scenery and wild flowers on both sides of the road.
Just when everyone was relieved and no longer worried about finding water, Grandma Xu suddenly fell ill.
Lin Miao took Grandma Xu's pulse and walked to the side and said to Su Huairen, "Old Su! I'm afraid Grandma Xu won't be able to hold on to Yan Nan."
Seeing Shuisheng's tears welling up in her eyes, Jiang Shuyue touched his head, unable to find the right words to comfort him.
The pulse is floating but weak, empty but not real, which is a sign that the oil is exhausted and the lamp is dry.
Jiang Shuyue pulled Wanmai and Shuisheng aside.
She squatted down, her eyes filled with mist.
Shuisheng bit his lower lip, raised his sleeves and quickly wiped away the tears that fell down.
"Aunt Yue, grandma...is she...?"
"Shui Sheng is good, grandma is getting old, and I'm afraid her days are numbered." Jiang Shuyue felt that she shouldn't say such cruel words to a child over six years old.
The Xu family was alone, and the grandmother who depended on each other was about to pass away. He had to face this.
"Yeah! I know, if it weren't for those damn human teeth, grandma might still be fine."
"Don't be afraid Shuisheng, Aunt Yue will raise you up so you can study."
Jiang Shuyue felt that any words of comfort seemed feeble, so she expressed her inner thoughts to make the child feel less helpless.
Lin Miaoshou found a nearby family and rented an empty yard to settle down temporarily.
Grandma Xu's heartbeat was gradually weakening, and the soup prepared by Jiang Shuyue could only keep her going for a few more days.
Ten days later in the morning, Grandma Xu took Shuisheng's hand and breathed her last.
Lin Miaoshou and Su Jin arranged funeral arrangements for Grandma Xu.
When people are in a foreign land, there is no grand funeral and they are buried hastily in a thin coffin.
Seeing the little person's tears falling silently, he held a handful of loess in his little hand and placed it respectfully on the grave.
"Grandma, Shuisheng will come to see you."
Shuisheng kowtowed three times, touched the words on the wooden sign in front of the grave, and finally burst into tears.
Everyone bowed their heads and wiped away tears.
Sui Sui let go of her mother's hand, walked up to Shui Sheng, took Shui Sheng's hand and raised her head, saying, "I will never cry, I will stay with you Sui Sui."
Lin Miaoshou's eyes flashed slightly, and he asked Shuisheng: "I know some boxing and kicking skills. Are you willing to become my teacher?"
