Chapter 2377 Strange Old Man
The old man was very thin, but his eyes were calm and unwavering, and he didn't eat as much as others, but instead had a feeling of walking in the courtyard.
Yun Chujiu looked at the old man and felt very familiar. He seemed to have seen it somewhere, but how could he have seen it?
When Yun Chujiu was thinking about it, he saw that the old man raised his head and glanced at Yun Chujiu, and then the steamed bun in his hand fell to the ground.
In just an instant, the old man picked up the steamed buns and ate them naturally, as if it was just an accident.
However, Yun Chujiu caught the surprised look in the old man's eyes just now. Does he know me?
Yun Chujiu's mind was a mess, but before he could come up with a clue, the miners finished their meal, and Yun Chujiu had to leave with the people in the dining hall.
Not far away, I heard someone scolding and saying: "You old man! Everyone else has finished eating, and you are the slowest one! It's useless to work, what do you mean by living like this?!"
Yun Chujiu turned his head and saw that a guard's whip was thrown towards the old man. The strong man protected the old man in front of him and endured the whip.
The strong man turned his head and looked at the guard fiercely. The guard was abruptly frightened back a few steps, scolded a few words, and then turned and left.
Yun Chujiu rolled his eyes, caught up with the people in the dining hall in front of him, and said with a smile, "Is there something wrong with that strong man? How could he be whipped for that old man? Could it be that he is the old man? son?"
People love gossip no matter what their status, and these people in the dining hall are no exception. One of them said: "That strong man seems to be called the old man's benefactor. I guess the old man gave him favors before! I tell you, The rest of the people in this mine were arrested, the old man and the strong man asked to come in by themselves, do you think they are sick?"
"What is it? You asked to come in? Are their brains useless?" Yun Chujiu cooperated with a surprised expression.
The person who spoke was instantly satisfied, and lowered his voice and said, "This is absolutely true! I heard from the guards that the old man and the strong man went to the mine gate to beg for food, and naturally they were arrested. come in."
Yun Chujiu echoed a few words, thinking that it was such a person who asked to come in, she thought they were crying and shouting to come in and become miners!
But also, if that's the case, the people at the mine should suspect that the two have some ulterior motive.
"Uncle, the three of us were arrested because we trespassed into the back mountain, why are you?" Yun Chujiu asked in a low voice.
"Oh! Don't mention it! I really answered the old saying that the fire at the city gate affected Chiyu. I was originally the bodyguard of the Lu family. The Lu family is a third-class family, and they offended the Fan family because of some things. We, the guards, were caught as miners."
"That's really bad luck! What about the rest?"
"Most of them are guards who were wiped out by the Fan family. There are also some servants who made mistakes in the Fan family, and some who offended the Fan family."
"What about your original master?" Yun Chujiu asked curiously.
The man smiled bitterly: "Little girl, you are so naive, those old masters were naturally killed! Otherwise, how could they trust us guards."
