Chapter 308 Meeting an Old Friend on the Road
Liang Chen felt that this little mouse was very spiritual, and he found food for him, so he let Xiao Hui go.
After surviving this most difficult period, Miss Lianyi went to the village, dealt with the culprits, and distributed grain, cloth and silver to them. These were all stolen from them by the village leader and belonged to them.
Because Liang Chen boldly exposed the culprit of Zhuangtou, he was valued by the young lady. He learned a lot from her and began to practice martial arts and study. Later, he would also go hunting in the mountains and catch some pheasants and rabbits to take home to replenish his mother's health.
By chance, he hunted a snake. After cutting open the snake's belly, he accidentally rescued Xiao Hui who was swallowed in the belly. From then on, Xiao Hui followed Liang Chen.
Every time Liang Chen went hunting in the mountains, Xiao Hui could help him find rabbit nests, wild eggs, etc. in advance. Liang Chen felt that he had a tacit understanding with Xiao Hui, so he kept him by his side.
Because animals are very keen and have an innate ability to sense danger, Liang Chen took Xiao Hui with him when he followed the lady away.
At this time, Xiao Hui's behavior was an early warning, indicating that the surrounding area was unsafe, so Chu Liangchen grabbed Xiao Hui and went to see Miss Lianyi.
After listening to Liang Chen's words, Lianyi glanced at Xiao Hui and nodded his little head. He was a little surprised that this little mouse actually had a trace of the blood of the Soul-Eating Rat. Although it was very thin, it was this trace of blood that made it better than ordinary people. The mice are smarter and live longer.
"I know! I tell everyone to be careful. This is the only place suitable for staying overnight within a few miles. Hold on for one night and we will leave early tomorrow morning."
"Yes, miss!"
Liang Chen then stuffed Xiao Hui back into his arms and went to prepare things for sleeping outdoors.
Lianyi spread out his consciousness and scanned the surrounding area. He found nothing unusual, so he put down the curtain and continued to read his script.
When the sun went down, another group of people came to the other side of the waterfall. They seemed to have the same idea as Lianyi and his party, planning to spend the night here and start their journey again at dawn.
However, when Wen Lu and Min Min saw this group of people, their expressions changed, they avoided the sight of these people, and turned to see Lianyi.
"Miss, the following team is escorts. They should be escorting things through this place, and this team of escorts knows our mother and daughter."
Wen Lu didn't hide anything and told Ripple directly.
"But the escort agency your late husband worked for previously exploited your mother and daughter?"
Lianyi remembered that someone had investigated the mother and daughter, so she knew some of the situation.
"Yes, Miss! The head of the escort agency fell in love with Minmin and wanted Minmin to marry his son. I didn't agree, so he started to deduct money from me as an escort, and also took the opportunity to arrange for his son to meet Minmin by chance. .”
Wen Lu gritted her teeth and said.
"I'm not a fool. Once or twice, I noticed something was wrong and asked my mother. Only then did I know that the chief escort had his mind set on me.
The escort's son was said to be a scholar, but I thought he was a man of wealth but a man of wealth. He couldn't write a few poems, but he was proficient in eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling. "
Minmin put a disgusted expression on her face and continued her mother's words.
"The chief escort just saw that Minmin was good at skills and I was the only widowed mother who could be easily manipulated. He wanted Minmin to carry on the family lineage and take over the responsibility of the escort agency in the future and continue to work for them. Naturally, I was the one to do it. Unwillingly.
Seeing that I didn't agree, the head escort asked a single escort in the escort agency to approach me and wanted to trick me into marrying him. If he became my husband, he would be able to decide Min Min's marriage.
But after I found out, I was ready to take Minmin away from the escort agency. At this time, Zheng Tong came to look for me, so I took this opportunity to leave the escort agency.
When we left, we didn't take anything except banknotes. Later, thanks to the lady's respect, we stayed at the village and rarely went out on weekdays, so they didn't discover our whereabouts.
The escort leader who led the team this time was the escort who deliberately approached me. I don’t know if they will still remember us after three years or if they will still come to cause trouble for our mother and daughter, so I came here to tell the lady, please The lady decides. "
Wen Lu explained the reason.
"Miss, we don't want to cause trouble for you, or we can avoid them first and wait until these people leave before meeting up with the lady."
Minmin bit her lip and suggested.
"I understand! From the beginning to the end, your fault is not your fault. It's just that the chief escort saw that you were orphans and widowed mothers, so he took advantage of you. It's also because you have a tough attitude and have enough force to protect yourself. , otherwise they would have forced him to stay.
Now that you are protected by this lady, what are you afraid of them doing? If they have any thoughts that they shouldn't have, as long as they dare to reach out, their claws will be chopped off, and if they dare to step forward, their heads will be chopped off. "
Lianyi said grandly.
"Yes, miss! We took note of it!"
Wen Lu had a smile on her face, and Min Min responded loudly with a smile.
"Okay, get to work! Just do whatever you have to do."
"yes!"
After receiving Lianyi's words, the mother and daughter no longer had any worries and went about their business step by step. First, they patrolled the area to make sure there was no safety threat. Then they took the guards and set up a few simple warning traps. .
Opposite the waterfall, the one-eyed head of the Changwei Escort Agency also noticed Wenlu and her daughter. He was a little surprised when he first saw them. But when he looked at them again, he found that the mother and daughter were becoming more and more energetic. It seemed that they were living a good life. Seems like a personal escort.
He touched his chin, then looked at the number of people on the opposite side, and he started to think about it. Then he waved, called the two deputies to his side, and gave a few instructions like this.
The two deputies' eyes lit up and they immediately nodded in agreement:
"Boss, I saw there are two beautiful little maids, please give them to us brothers when the job is done!"
"Okay! Take the mother and daughter back to the chief escort. They don't know how to promote them. Before, they could still be the wives of the young escort, but now they can only be concubines."
One Eye said with a vicious look.
"That's who made them ignorant of praise."
Naturally, these conversations did not escape Ripple's consciousness. She withdrew her consciousness and sighed, and then when the night was dark, she directly set up formations around the camp and directly protected the entire camp.
In the middle of the night, white mist surged up beside the waterfall, and soon spread to the camps on both sides.
Ripples were protected by the formation, so they didn't feel anything. It was just that the guards watching at night felt a little clammy, but because they were at the edge of a waterfall, they didn't care.
But the camp opposite was miserable. The white mist extinguished the fire in the camp, and then there was a "rustling" sound, and then the people sleeping in the tent made muffled sounds one after another.
Finally, there was a roar, which woke up the remaining people and also alerted Lianyi's side.
"what happened?"
The two guards on Lianyi's side immediately stood up and drew out the knives in their hands.
"You don't need to go over to check. Stay here and don't act rashly."
Ripples of sound came from behind the two of them.
Hey guys, here are three chapters. After dinner, there will be more chapters before ten o'clock! Stay tuned!
