The three of them returned to the house, and Dai Er was already half-lying on a chair, closing his eyes and relaxing.
"Ah, his brother is not like you!" Gu Ming said in surprise, "In that occasion, in that atmosphere, how did you get to this point?"
"Hey, you think I'm as heartless as you. My brother was captured by ghosts." Dai Er jumped up and said.
"Then what did you do?" Gu Ming asked.
"Humph." Dai Er didn't answer. He looked at Chen Yuan and said, "Let's go to Jiajiazhuang outside the city."
"Xiao Momo, think slowly and go to bed when you are tired." Chen Yuan said.
"Okay, uncle, you and Master should be careful." Tai Mo said obediently.
The three of them walked out of the palace gate.
"What are you trying to do? What are you doing outside the city?" Gu Ming asked.
"Have you heard about it?" Chen Yuan asked with a smile.
"How do you know?" Dai Er asked in shock.
"Otherwise, what else can you do?" Chen Yuan laughed again.
"You're a hermaphrodite, I can't hide anything from you." Dai Er rolled his eyes.
"What are you two talking about, Brother Yuan?" Gu Ming said.
"I really have to reconsider now, who is the most reckless among the three of us." Chen Yuan chuckled.
Gu Ming scratched his head in embarrassment, glared at Dai Er again, and said, "Say!"
"Obviously, at that time, his second brother knew about Li Niang from the girl named Tingting, and we also found Qiuhuai Courtyard. And Tingting was kicked out today by coincidence. There are some problems." Chen Yuan said to Gu Ming.
"You are the only one who is smart." Dai Er snorted.
"And he didn't know what was going on at that time. He actually let go of such an important clue without asking. Maybe he was shy when talking to girls." Chen Yuan bared his teeth.
"He? Woman? Shy?" Gu Ming said in surprise.
"Can it be the same?" Dai Er seemed to know what Gu Ming was talking about.
"So he went to ask those soldiers? Can the soldiers know about the maid?" Gu Ming said in surprise.
"Don't talk about soldiers, let's just talk about a group of ordinary men. Such a large group of men gather together, and within a quarter of an hour, the topic will definitely turn to women." Chen Yuan said with a smile.
"Especially after drinking." Dai Er also said with a smile, his eyes were indescribably lustful, and he didn't know what those rough men had done to the woman in their words just now.
"Besides, there are not a few soldiers who have some official positions, and they want to get married to the maids in the palace." Chen Yuan said.
"So the maids in this mansion are particularly pretty, and there are quite a few people who pay attention to her." Gu Ming nodded.
"Is that Tingting pretty?" Chen Yuan suddenly asked Dai Erdao.
"Beautiful, really beautiful. It's not that kind of beauty, you know? It's just - how should I put it! Anyway, I didn't even think about stripping her naked!" Dai Ersheng said fiercely.
Chen Yuan opened his eyes in shock. How could someone be so complimentary? Gu Mingze glared as usual.
The three of them arrived at the city gate while chatting and laughing, but the door was already closed.
"Stop, who is coming?" The soldier guarding the gate waved his spear with a mighty hand, and the armor on his body jingled.
"Guests from the palace are out of town on business." Chen Yuan stood still and replied.
"The city gate is closed and no one can get out. We'll talk about it tomorrow," the guard said.
"We are really in an emergency. Do you want to find your young prince?" Dai Er said angrily.
"No one can get out unless there is a warrant from the prince!" the guard said.
"I just came to say hello and tell you that I was going out. I didn't let you open the door." Chen Yuan said with a smile.
The guard didn't know why. In short, he didn't need to open the door and ignored him.
"No, you two should go back first. This city wall is similar to the palace wall of the palace. It's hard to get in and out." Chen Yuan said.
"Showing off your martial arts skills? If you don't leave, you won't leave! Her family is..." Dai Er was talking when he was suddenly interrupted by a familiar voice.
"Who? Who said the little prince? What happened to the little prince!" Another man in armor ran down the city wall with a clanging sound.
"Hey, are you on duty tonight?" Chen Yuan said with a smile.
"Is it you?" The person who came was the man who led Dai Er in the morning.
"Why are you leaving the city? I heard you talking about the young prince?" The man looked at Dai Er, his eyes still filled with hatred.
"Go out to find your young prince." Dai Er glanced at him sideways and said lazily.
"The young prince has never even left the palace. When will he be able to leave the city?" the man asked.
"I'm just going out to look for him anyway." Dai Er didn't bother to explain.
"Since the city gate opened this morning, I have pinched the face of every person who came out, opened the boxes one by one, and opened the food boxes one by one. Please tell me how the young prince got out of the city," the man said.
"It seems you really want to find him." Chen Yuan said, "Then let us go out, maybe we can find him."
"Maybe..." the man murmured.
"If it doesn't open, I will go out on my own." Chen Yuan bared his teeth and said with a smile.
"You show me one!" Before the man could say anything, the one holding the spear behind him became unhappy.
"Did you find the waistband?" Chen Yuan asked him.
"It's you!" The spear guard stepped forward, but was blocked by the man's arm.
"Come out, you can get out anyway." After saying that, he turned around and said, "Open the door!"
"Squeak——"
"Aren't you afraid that we will run away?" The three of them walked to the door, and Dai Er turned around and asked.
"The princess has confessed that the disappearance of the young prince has nothing to do with you. She also said that even if you can't find him, you can leave if you want." The man said without turning back.
"His disappearance indeed has nothing to do with me. But his disappearance has everything to do with me." Dai Er said slowly.
The man turned around and cupped his fists: "I was rude this morning. I know you three are very capable, so I leave it to you!" After saying this, the man bowed.
"You don't believe it was a ghost." Chen Yuan laughed.
"Only a ghost can believe it." The man also smiled.
Several people looked at each other and smiled, and three figures streaked into the night outside the city like shooting stars.
"Is it this place?" Gu Ming asked.
"This is the house. There is a catalpa tree in front of the door." Dai Er said.
"It's so late, why haven't you turned off the lights? Look, every other house in Zhuangzi is dark." Gu Ming said.
The three of them said and jumped onto the roof.
"Mom, look, these are all made of silver." The girl happily showed the jewelry in the bag to an old woman.
"Come on, mother, take this hairpin to me and take a look." The girl said and pinned the silver hairpin on the lady's head.
"Ah! It's so beautiful." The girl kept talking, but the woman looked a little frowning.
"Ting'er, tell me the truth, why don't you work as a maid in the palace?" asked the silent woman.
"Oh mother! Didn't I already tell you that I don't want to do it myself and want to come back to serve you and daddy." The girl said coquettishly.
"Then how come there are so many valuable things?" the woman said with a sad face.
"It's what Madam gave me! She said that I wasted my youth for many years in the palace and asked me to take it back as a dowry. Even if the maids of the palace go home, they can't be looked down upon by others and embarrass the palace." said the girl.
"The house is so good, why don't you want to do it?" The woman broke the casserole and asked.
"Mom! What do you mean, do you think these things came from unclean sources? I ran away secretly, right!" The girl was a little angry when asked.
"You said that yourself." The woman turned away and said.
"Mom! Is your daughter actually such a person in your eyes?" The girl's eyes were red and tears were already rolling in her eyes.
"It's not because of my mother that I miss you like this. It's really unbelievable. These things add up to a hundred taels, right?" the woman said.
"The wages of being a maid all your life are not that much, right?" the woman asked again.
"In short, it's a gift from my wife, mother, believe it or not. Your girl's hands have soiled your door lintel, so leave now!" The girl cried and was about to pack her bags and go out.
"This girl is so stubborn!" Dai Er grinned.
"Hush! Someone is coming." Gu Ming looked into the distance, and several people hurried towards this direction.
"This is the house with a catalpa tree at the door!" The leader was short and thin, with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and his waist was hunched over, like a mouse holding stolen food and gnawing at it.
"Are you going to kill them all?" asked the man behind.
"Nonsense! If you leave one alive, it will be flooded!" said the mouse.
"How many people are there?" the man asked again.
"An old couple and a little girl." said the mouse.
"Little girl! Are you beautiful?" another man said.
"Don't make trouble, just finish it quickly and go back." The mouse said in a suppressed voice. The man who was being trained was tall and strong. He could be divided into two mice, but he was trained by the mouse so that he did not dare to say anything. It seemed that among these people, he was the mouse. the best.
"That's really a waste. Brother, I haven't eaten meat for a long time." The last thief said while rubbing his hands.
"Don't be ridiculous, fourth brother. I was told not to stay too long. The property I took away will be enough for you to be happy in the brothel for several days!" the mouse said, licking his lips.
"Then let's do it!" Lao Si also licked his lips and said.
"Come in!" The mouse nodded.
Several people jumped into the low earth wall. The fourth child took out a sharp bone-picking knife from his arms, slowly inserted it into the door of the room where the mother and son were chatting, and suddenly picked off the door bolt.
"Ah——" A scream just started, but before it could be heard from the door, his mouth was covered.
"Don't scream, little bitch! If you scream again, I will kill your mother to death." The fourth child strangled the girl with his arm from behind and said viciously.
"Then I'll crush you to death with this, hehehe..." As he spoke, he thrust his butt forward, licked the girl's face, and said with a lewd smile.
The girl was trembling in fear, tears streaming down her face, her legs were weak and she was about to sit on the ground, but someone strangled her neck. His mother was so frightened that she lost consciousness. When she came to her senses, she was struck unconscious with a knife.
"Say! Where is the silver?!" asked the mouse.
The girl just trembled, her eyes opened even wider, and she couldn't make a sound.
"Why bother, brother? Isn't this right on the kang?" said another thief.
The mouse heard this and walked over, picked up the bundle, looked at it, and weighed it again. Asked: "Is there any more?"
"Tell me! Is there anything else?" The fourth child put a knife to the girl's neck and slapped her on the butt twice more.
"Relax your fucking hands and let her say what she wants!" The mouse kicked Laosi's legs and cursed.
"Let me go. If you scream, I will kill you with a knife." Lao Si said viciously. Just as he was about to let go, he tightened his grip and added: "If you want to die, at least you are innocent, then you can I made a mistake. After I finish you off, I will make out with you for a while while you are still hot, and then I will strip you naked and hang you up at the entrance of the village, so that the whole village can feast their eyes on you tomorrow morning, hehehehe..." After that, he said again He slapped his butt twice, smiled sinisterly, and let go of his hand.
After hearing this, the girl closed her eyes in despair, slumped down on the ground, and said, "No more, that's all."
"If you dare to tell lies, I..."
"Mom, take Tianwa's cart into the city tomorrow, and their donkey cart will go to the city to sell vegetables!" A man came into the yard and shouted as he entered the door. Interrupted the fourth child's threat.
"Dad! Run! Dad! Run!" The girl suddenly shouted heartbreakingly.
The man who had just entered the door stood stunned on the spot, the fourth man's sharp bone-picking knife had already reached his heart.
"Pop", there was no blood splatter as he imagined. Instead, his wrist seemed to be broken, and the knife fell to the ground.
"Who!" cried the mouse. The other two people immediately became alert when they saw this, because they all saw that there was a stone falling on the ground together with the knife.
"Pa", another stone hit the mouse's mouth, knocking out two teeth.
"Ah -" Mouse's scream was stopped by a voice before it could be heard from the door: "Scream! I will kill you if you scream." Dai Er imitated Lao Si's words and stepped towards the door. .
"You're robbing everyone at this level?" Dai Er said and slapped another person on the face, and the person fell to the ground motionless. Another blow hit another man in the face, who also fell to the ground, convulsing and foaming.
Now there were only two people standing. The mouse covered his mouth and the fourth child pinched his wrist. Both of them had horror in their eyes.
"Tell me, who asked you to come?" Dai Er asked.
"Who are you? Do you know..."
"Pa!" Before the fourth child could finish his words, Dai Er hit him in the face with a flippant. The fourth child flew backwards and hit the wall before falling. Half of his head collapsed and he died immediately.
"Answer whatever you ask. It's annoying to hear even one more word." Dai Er muttered, turned his head and said with a smile, "Who asked you to come?" As he said that, he stepped lightly on the top of the mouse's head, like a Step on a stool.
"Did I say you can live?" the mouse asked tremblingly.
"You know what? If I hadn't been too lazy to wake them up, you would have died." Dai Er smiled and increased the strength on his feet, almost grinding the mouse's head into his chest.
"Heroes, heroes! Spare your life! No one asked us to come! We are just doing this business of robbing houses." The mouse shouted.
"I'd better wake them two up." Dai Er said and used his strength on his feet.
"No, no, no, heroes, no one really asked us to come. I am the boss of the three of them, and I called them all!" The mouse didn't seem to be telling lies.
"Stay stubborn! At that time, you said that I couldn't stay for a long time, and you thought I didn't hear you? Who are you!" Dai Er shouted with force on his foot.
"You said this, good man, he is a fortune teller. He said that I am going to have a fortune here today, so I came here." The mouse said hurriedly.
"Oh? Fortune teller? Where's the fortune teller? How do you say it?" Dai Er asked, relaxing his feet lightly.
"I finished my gambling from the city at noon, and I was feeling dejected. A voice suddenly said from behind me: 'Those who lament and sigh are worried about how to spend their money.' I saw that he was a fortune teller, and I was annoyed at the time. I wanted to go up and beat this guy up. Unexpectedly, this guy said: "Outside the city, there is a jujube tree in front of the Jiajiazhuang. Go ahead. There are more than a hundred taels of silver waiting for you." After I asked carefully, he said that this guy Suddenly we have a windfall, but it is just ill-gotten wealth. Naturally, it will be taken away by unjust people. What we usually do is robbing families and homes, so naturally it is the unjust person." The mouse finished talking like he was pouring beans into the bamboo tube. .
"Are you a fortune teller in Linze City?" Dai Er asked.
"Yes, good man!" The mouse nodded.
"There are not many fortune tellers in Linze City, but there are also quite a few. I know which one you are talking about?" Dai Er asked.
"You're a very easy-to-recognize hero. We say it in a 'clear' way, but the fortune teller talks in a 'diddy' way." The mouse bowed.
"It's him." Chen Yuan, who was lying on the roof with his legs crossed and listening leisurely, said to Gu Ming.
"The fortune teller this morning." Gu Ming said.
"Why do I feel like everything is coming together?" Chen Yuan said with a smile.
"Yes, I vaguely feel this way too." Gu Ming said.
"Listen to what that girl has to say later." Chen Yuan said.
Gu Ming nodded.
"Okay, I got it." After Dai Er finished speaking, he increased the strength on his feet.
