Chapter 164: Meet the Flower Boy Again
With the help of the faint light above his head, Xiao Yining slowly moved to the side of his fellow villager and spat at him again.
"Stupid, your saliva is warm, it won't wake him up, kick him." Wang Gungun reminded, and he also moved towards Pei Yi with his butt arched like a caterpillar.
The three of them were unlucky. They were dispersed by the frightened vendors and adults before they could even get the clay figurines. Pei Yi was holding the hands of the two tightly and had no time to care about anything else. He was hit on the back of the head by someone, and the two little ones were also picked up and knocked unconscious.
Before little Yining fell asleep, he heard his mother calling him. When he woke up, he came here. There were dozens of children around him, lying on the ground in a mess.
"These human traffickers are leaning against a big tree. It will take several years to uproot them." Wang Gungun started to spoil the plot again. He propped himself up and said, "Come on, kick together with me to wake this big guy up."
Little Yining shook his head and refused, "Uncle's bones are just fine, he can't get hurt again, I won't kick him."
Wang Gungun raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh, you seem to be really worried about him. Now we are the only two awake, tell me who you are, I promise I will keep it a secret."
"Go away cousin, why do you have such a bad memory? I am Lin Yining, and my nickname is Qing Jie'er." Little Yining said softly.
"you…"
At this moment, a strange noise came from above their heads, and the two little ones immediately fell onto Pei Yi's chest as if they were electrocuted.
Pei Yi was awakened instantly.
"Why did the city gate suddenly close?" A rough male voice sounded, accompanied by the sound of two heavy objects falling to the ground. "We didn't touch those officials' children."
"I guess because of other things, we should stay here for a few days, and then ship these goods out after the opening." said another person.
"Then how do we deal with this old woman?"
"Don't worry, there will be a way out."
"Crack" the light above the head disappeared, the dark cave returned to calm, and the footsteps gradually faded away.
The three of them opened their eyes almost at the same time.
"Hurry, kick this boss awake so we can escape." Wang Gungun said anxiously.
"I'm awake." Pei Yi said helplessly. The two little heads were still quite heavy and he moved his body uncomfortably.
"Uncle, how are you now? Is your head broken? Does it hurt?" Xiao Yining moved his body again to look at his head.
Pei Yi felt something sticky on his face, probably blood, so he said, "Don't look at it, or it'll scare you."
At this time, Wang GunGun shook his head and sighed, "I was wondering why you haven't become a eunuch yet. It turns out that the time has not come yet."
Pei Yi stood up and looked at him coldly, "If you can't control your mouth, I will cut off your tongue."
Wang GunGun: ..., I am telling the truth.
Pei Yi met Xiao Yining's worried eyes and said softly, "Don't be afraid, your uncle will protect you."
Little Yining also nodded and promised softly, "I won't let my cousin become a eunuch either."
"...Well, I believe in Sister Qing." Pei Yi began to look around.
"Boss, quickly break free from the rope and take us away from here." Wang Gungun urged.
Pei Yi retracted his gaze and shook his head, saying, "There are more than 20 people above, and there are too many targets here, so it's not easy to escape."
"Too many? You want to save everyone. When did you become so kind?" Wang Gungun said in disbelief. Then a cold gaze shot to his face. He shrank his neck and continued, "Then we can only rely on my crazy old man. He only needs to count with his fingers to know where we are, and then he will bring people to rescue us."
Xiao Yining thought about the old Taoist who either slept or pretended to be confused all day, and suddenly felt that he was unreliable.
Taoist priest: Don’t think about it. I was knocked unconscious by a horse and I haven’t woken up yet!
Not long after, Pei Yi heard a crackling sound, and he actually broke free from the rope. He dragged his wrist to twist his hand back, and then helped the two children untie the rope.
Wang GunGun: He is indeed a big shot.
Xiao Yining: Uh...actually she had a dagger in her arms.
"The people here have been heavily drugged. None of them are awake yet." Pei Yi said after checking on the children. He turned around and looked at the two little ones. One was calculating and the other was checking his uncle's medicine box.
Pei Yi: ...
He sighed helplessly and continued softly, "If I had a weapon, I could run up there and kill everyone."
Unfortunately, he was living too comfortably now and had someone to protect him, so he didn't even bring a knife with him when he went out. He had no idea how to deal with more than 20 people with his bare hands.
He looked at the two kids again, and it was obvious that they didn't hear him again.
Pei Yi sighed again.
"Hey, this person's skirt looks like the one Aunt Luo wore today?" Little Yining looked around with his eyes darting around, and suddenly fixed his gaze on an adult not far away, and asked in surprise.
Pei Yi turned the man over, revealing Luo Lezhi's dirty face. "It's the woman I saw before."
Xiao Yining quickly stepped forward and took Luo Lezhi's hand, "Uncle, let's take Aunt Luo to a corner so that the kidnappers won't find us."
All the people kidnapped here are small children, and she is an adult alone. She would be too conspicuous and it would be easy for something to happen to her.
Luo Lezhi is not heavy.
Pei Yi pushed Xiao Yining's hand away and easily lifted her up and put her in a corner. Xiao Yining took some dust from the ground and smeared it on her face.
Wang Gungun also stepped forward and pulled out a hairpin from Luo Lezhi's head, letting her hair down. "It's dark here, it's better to cover your face than to put on plaster."
Pei Yi stared at the wooden hairpin in Wang Gungun's hand. It was as thick as a chopstick and could probably only kill a few people.
At this time, there was another noise coming from above. Pei Yi hurriedly took the wooden hairpin and threw himself on Luo Lezhi with the two little ones, like a mountain, protecting the two of them tightly under him.
Luo Lezhi groaned softly, and the next moment his mouth was covered.
The small door above also opened, and a few more people came down.
"You stay here and if anyone moves, knock them out immediately. We will deal with the search officers and soldiers up there."
"How come Jingzhao Yin reacted so quickly this time? Even the Iron Eagle Guard came over."
"Could it be that the rebels from a few days ago have reappeared?"
"Maybe."
"I heard that Lao Liu brought a pair of aunts and sisters-in-law here. Didn't you see them?"
“Maybe it wasn’t delivered.”
"..."
After chatting for a while, they separated again, leaving four people to look after the children.
There was candlelight in the cave, illuminating the shadows little by little.
As the sky gradually darkened, Lin Yuzan and Wang Cheng also arrived outside the city gate. They both smelled of blood, obviously having been through a battle. The shadow guards who worked with them also disappeared without a trace.
"Why is the city gate closed?" Lin Yuzan's face changed. "Did something big happen in Yanjing City?"
Wang Cheng looked at the people who were stopped outside the gate, whispering to each other. He didn't know what was going on in the city. He whispered, "No one should know what we did. Call out the shadow guards who are watching you, and we will go through the secret passage."
