Chapter 20 chapter 19
Jia Gu wanted to say something, but finally endured it, Shan Heyi, dragging his thin arms and calves, climbed up the tree two or three times, and hid himself in a thick branch that could hold the two of them.
Fortunately, there was a bend in the creek ahead, and those people were still on the other side. Their loud voices gave Shan Heyi a chance to hide. As soon as they hid in the tree, those people walked by one after another Bend and come to where they were before.
When those people passed the turning point, Qiqi stopped in their tracks, even stopped talking, and stared unanimously at the young man sitting by the creek not far away, staring blankly at the creek.
There were several holes in the clothes the young man was wearing, and they were still filthy. He exuded an aura of helplessness and a great change, but this did not prevent them from expressing their respect for this underage child. alert.
After a while, one person stepped forward, the vigilance on his face was replaced by gentleness, and he said softly to Yan Xiao, "Child, which family do you belong to? It's so dangerous here, why are you staying here? Come back with us, okay?"
Yan Xiao: "..."
If you want to pretend, please pretend to be a little bit, okay?Who saves a child in trouble like this?Three meters apart, do you think I'm a scourge?The three people in the back guarded behind them protectively, and they might launch an attack at any time. Are they here to save people or to fight?
Yan Xiao didn't really want to talk to them, but she had to send them away, so she had to show you what acting is.
"A few friends and I went exploring in this dense forest, but we encountered heavy rain and caused a flash flood. We couldn't find a cave to hide in, so we took shelter everywhere. When the rain stopped, I couldn't find them anymore..." Said At this point, Yan Xiao was so choked up that she couldn't speak.
After a while, I held back the tears that were about to burst into my eyes, and continued: "I don't know if they are still alive..."
Tears fell at the right time, the upper teeth bit the lower lip tightly to prevent the sound from escaping from the lips, the hands wrapped around the legs, and buried their heads between the knees, just like a innocent boy who is sad because of the loss of his best friend .
On the tree not far away, Jiagu and Shan Heyi, who were staring nervously at this side, were also shocked. If they hadn't known the real situation, they would have almost believed it. They were also convinced by this acting.
Those four people also believed most of Yan Xiao's words. The most obvious thing was that their faces were less vigilant. The leader also stepped forward and patted Yan Xiao's shoulder lightly. Circle people, that is really a good picture to spread positive energy, entitled "Helping Distressed Children Get Out of Their Psychological Shadows".
"Don't be afraid, the uncles will take you back to the village, and you will be safe in the village," said the man.
Yan Xiao suddenly raised her head, and quickly grabbed the man's hand that was still on his shoulder. The man was caught off guard, and was shocked. She was about to pull her hand back, but the boy's pitiful expression It actually made his heart move inexplicably, and he stopped the movement of withdrawing.
Yan Xiao cried, "I beg you, can you find them? With so many of you, you can definitely find them, right?"
"Okay, okay, uncle will definitely send someone to find them, and they will definitely be found, don't worry, but you have to go back with uncle first, and see you, you haven't had a good rest..." The man hurriedly lightened his hand with the other hand. Pat Yan Xiao on the back, trying to comfort him.
"They must be cold and hungry now, and they can't find a way out. They must be terribly scared. Go find them now, okay? I beg you!"
The four of them were in a dilemma. They couldn't refuse Yan Xiao's request, but if they agreed, it would mean that they couldn't take Yan Xiao back immediately. They were all talkative people in the village, so they naturally listened a lot. Although they don't know the real purpose of this search and rescue, they can guess that it is not easy. They don't want to encounter something unusual at all. If something happens, the consequences are not something they can bear.
At this time, one of the people who was standing motionless behind took a step to move behind Yan Xiao, and knocked Yan Xiao unconscious with a knife in his hand.
Jiagu and Shan Heyi, who were waiting quietly to watch the show, were immediately stunned by the sudden change. The person who was talking to Yan Xiao was also stunned for a long time, and then suddenly raised his head to stun him. Yan Xiao's man shouted, "What are you doing?"
The man shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "What are you talking about with him? Just knock him out and take him back and it's over. The village chief asked us to arrest people, not find them."
The other person couldn't bear it, and said: "This child is so weak, it can't be that...that thing, maybe he really came here to explore, and he was unlucky to encounter a mountain torrent. several……"
The person who stunned Yan Xiao looked impatient, and shouted: "You are kind, then go find it!"
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to pick it up, lifted Yan Xiao up with one hand, turned around and walked back.
Hearing this, the person being yelled at didn't speak any more, and followed back to the village silently.
Seeing that Yan Xiao was about to be taken away, Shan Heyi was anxious to rush over to save her, but was stopped by Jiagu.
He looked at Jia Gu accusingly, and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Jia Gu, who pointed in Yan Xiao's direction and said in a breathy voice, "Look at the gesture."
Shan Heyi obediently looked at Yan Xiao's hand behind his back, and indeed made a gesture, which was not complicated and very subtle, but he didn't understand what it meant, and looked at Jiagu suspiciously, asking him to explain.
Jia Gu explained softly: "He's still awake, let's not go there."
The "creaking" broken wooden door was opened from the outside, revealing the original appearance of the house. Dry firewood was piled up like a hill, occupying half of the room. with straw.
Two men in rough clothes carried a boy on their shoulders, and stepped into the small area carefully, as if they would collapse if they stepped on it too hard. They put the boy on the bed and left.
With a "click", accompanied by the footsteps and voices of the two people walking away, the unconscious young man in the room opened his eyes.
Yan Xiao was still lying down, observing the room silently. In addition to the piles of firewood, there were also some sundries in the room. It seemed to be the firewood house of a certain family. If there is such an independent firewood house in the village, the family His status should not be low, maybe arresting him back has a lot to do with the owner of this house.
The surroundings of the house are very quiet, but no matter how quiet it is, this is still a village after all. In the distance, there are chopping firewood, cooking fire and faint chatting, laughing and cursing.
The sun gradually set on the mountain, and the night began to fall. People who had been busy for a day finally returned home one after another, began to enjoy the food and drink, and began to experience the joy of human relationship.
When Yan Xiao was still "dizzy", someone brought food, but Yan Xiao didn't even want to look at it, not to mention that he was still worried about his little friend, who didn't have an appetite to eat, even if he was starving to death, he wouldn't have a bite.
Although Yan Xiao often does special training in the field and can eat anything, he is still very picky about food in essence. He can tolerate things made of strange raw materials, but he cannot make good materials. Strange food was devoured.
A black curtain enveloped the world, and in the distance, there were several lights dotted in the distance, flickering on and off.And this small firewood house seems to be forgotten, looking at the excitement elsewhere, but can only stay alone in the darkness, the warmth that is close at hand, but out of reach.
"Knock knock" sounded twice from the crumbling window, and the wood of the window frame swayed left and right, as if it was about to fall down at any moment.
The heads of Jia Gu and Shan Heyi filled the small window, the moonlight could not illuminate their appearance, only their rough outlines could be carved out in the darkness.
Jiagu: "Hey bro, are you okay?"
"Brother Xiao..." The voice was pitiful, with a hint of guilt, as if he was about to cry in the next second.
"Hey, hey, I'm warning you, I'm about to cry, don't talk about saving brother Xiao, I have to go in with both of you." Jiagu's tone was still playful, but it was extraordinarily reliable.
"Okay, you guys come in quickly, I found a tunnel, let's go in and have a look." Yan Xiao said.
"I... how are we going to get in?" Shan Heyi was a little at a loss, before they came to this window, they walked around the house several times, but they didn't find any other way to get in except the door and the window.
"You can go in by shouting over there." Jia Gu said, he patted Shan Heyi on the shoulder, turned his head and walked forward.
Shan Heyi lowered his head and thought about the feasibility of this method, and then said to himself: "This is quite aboveboard."
When he looked up, he saw Jia Gu's figure disappearing around the corner, and trotted to follow.
Accidentally overheard Yan Xiao in the corner: "..." This silly boy.
When Jia Gu and Shan Heyi went in, they saw Yan Xiao picking something from the pile of firewood.
"Where is the tunnel you mentioned?" Jia Gu asked.
Yan Xiao didn't answer him, but asked Shan Heyi who came in from behind, "Is your family in this village?"
Shan Heyi was looking around from the moment he came in, and found that the air suddenly became quiet, and saw that the two of them were staring at him, so he realized that he was asking himself.
Hastily said: "Yes."
"Where is this place?" Yan Xiao lowered his head and continued to scratch.
Shan Heyi swallowed his saliva, and said, "It's...a forbidden area in the village."
"Forbidden area? There is a forbidden area in your small village?" Jia Gu couldn't believe it.
"Boom" and "Boom" were caught off guard and hit the eardrums of the two of them. Jia Gu was startled, thinking that someone had discovered him, but when he lowered his head, he saw Yan Xiao was smashing something with a stone.
"What are you doing?" Jia Gu hurriedly grabbed Yan Xiao's hand that was about to be smashed down, nonsense, if you smash it again, everyone will come here later, do they still want to go out?
Yan Xiao was not unhappy when his hand was caught, and he threw the rock that had been smashed with a corner missing into his hand. With the other hand, he raised a rusty object and said, "Unlock the lock."
The author has something to say:
Jiagu: ca, why does Yan Xiao have acting skills, but I don't?
Author: Don't you have acting skills all over your body?
Jiagu: ...
