MTL - Poor Family-Chapter 48 tearful farewell

  Chapter 48 Tears and farewell

Li Yanqing ran to the entrance of the village in one breath. At this time, the east sky was turning white, and the sky was already numb. When he arrived at the entrance of the village, he saw Aunt Hu walking towards her daughter-in-law with her feet deep and shallow. Aunt Zhang was crying like tears. Like a human being, his body is weak, and he squats down and vomits after walking a few steps.

  Li Yanqing was startled, and hurried forward and asked, "Ma'am, what happened?"

   "Qing'er, Xiao Qing'er is missing." Aunt Hu said anxiously.

   "Ah! How come?"

   "We worshiped our ancestors in the house, and she was playing in the yard. When we came out, she was gone, and you, Uncle Hu, have already gone to look for her."

  Li Yanqing immediately understood that it must be the man who stole Qing'er yesterday, and he felt extremely remorseful. He should go back to the village and tell Uncle Hu that something happened after he was careless.

  He was so anxious that he ran south, but Mrs. Hu stopped him, "Qing'er, where are you going?"

   "That person came from the south. Uncle Hu must have chased him south. I'll help Uncle Hu find someone."

   "Qing'er wait a minute!"

Aunt Hu let go of her daughter-in-law and ran over. She blocked her eyes with her body, took out a small dagger from her bosom and handed it to Li Yanqing, "This is for your self-defense, be careful yourself, if you can't do it, just run, that person won't be able to chase you." on yours."

   "Don't worry, ma'am! I won't do stupid things."

  Li Yanqing took the dagger and put it in his arms, and ran away. At this time, Dahei also ran out of the village, chasing after the young master.

  . ． ． ． ． ． ．

Li Yanqing did not go to Zhangji Town. He knew that the man took Xiao Qing'er to force Uncle Hu to agree to go with him, not to take Xiao Qing'er away, so the man would not go far, he must be nearby .

   "Dahei, this way!"

Li Yanqing ran for a few miles, left the official road and ran south along the small road. There was also a large woods to the south, which was connected with the woods behind his house. Li Yanqing thought that since the man came out of the woods yesterday, Nine out of ten are still hiding in the woods.

  It was not yet daylight, and the woods were even darker. The ground was covered with fallen leaves, which rustled when walking on them. After Li Yanqing walked more than a hundred steps, he suddenly waved his hand to make Dahei stop. He seemed to hear something?

  He listened for a while, only to hear another roar from the southeast direction.

"over there!"

Li Yanqing took Dahei away and ran towards the southeast. About a mile away, Li Yanqing stopped suddenly, hugged Dahei, hissed, he had already seen him, and stood dozens of steps away. with two people.

One should be Uncle Hu from his attire, facing him directly, while the other has his back facing him, carrying a burden on his back, holding a whistle stick in one hand, and looking closer, the other hand is raised high, and in his hand is Xiaoqing Son.

   Under Xiao Qing'er, there was a big rock with sharp edges and corners. Li Yanqing immediately understood that if Uncle Hu didn't agree, Xiao Qing'er would be severely used to it.

   Li Yanqing was furious in his heart, he pressed Dahei's head, one person and one dog quietly approached behind the soap-clothed man.

   "Brother, I have good intentions and invited you to enjoy wealth in the south regardless of past suspicions, but how do you treat me? How do you want me to go back and explain to Master Fang?"

   "How you explain is up to you. Put my little lady down and let us go our separate ways. Otherwise, if something happens to my little lady, you don't even want to live!"

The man in soap didn't notice that someone was approaching him from behind, he still said loudly: "People like us who are heavily in debt can earn money by living one more day, brother Hu, how powerful your father and son were in Weizhou back then, you At the age of sixteen, you commanded thousands of people. Master Fang also looked at you differently later, but you didn't appreciate it. Although you have been hiding for ten years, do you think you can really hide for a lifetime? Come with me! The government will find you sooner or later you."

  These words didn't make Hu Sheng react in any way. His eyes were still fixed on the man's left hand. His daughter seemed to have passed out and remained motionless, which made him even more nervous.

But Li Yanqing finally found out about Uncle Hu’s background. It turned out to be the Hebei Baojia Uprising. Tens of thousands of Baoding uprisings occurred in Tanzhou and Weizhou in 1084. They persisted intermittently for ten years and were completely suppressed sixteen years ago. It is estimated that Uncle Hu’s Father was one of the leaders. After the failure of the uprising, Uncle Hu fled to the south of the Yangtze River and hid for a few years, so he got to know Fang La, but he didn't speculate with Fang La, so he came to Tangyin County and became his neighbor. He hid for ten years .

   "Brother Hu, if you don't go back with me, Master Fang won't let me go, and I'm going to risk it too. I'll count to three. If you still don't agree, we will die together!"

  The man stared fiercely at Hu Sheng, raised the little Qinger in his hand, and burst out the first word through clenched teeth:'One! '

   "So what if I promise you? Will I go with you?" Hu Sheng shouted angrily.

   "Who doesn't know that King Hu promises a thousand gold, you will never go back on what you promised, cut down the nonsense, will you agree or not?"

   "Two!" The man roared again.

At this moment, Li Yanqing made a move, and a cold light shot out from his hand. It was a personal dagger given to him by Mrs. Hu. It was no more than six inches long and weighed eight taels. It was exactly the same as a copper pot arrow. Li Yanqing shot it from three feet away. , The man was completely defenseless.

  'Pfft! ’ The dagger pierced his wrist, and the severe pain caused the man to scream, and Qing’er fell from his hand. At the same time as the man screamed, Li Yanqing yelled, “Dahei, bite him!”

  He and Dahei rushed up at the same time, Dahei roared and rushed at the man, throwing him back to the ground, Li Yanqing moved swiftly, picked up Xiao Qing'er on the ground, and ran towards the depths of the woods.

  Seeing that his daughter was saved, Hu Sheng was overjoyed. He waved the iron whip in his hand, roared, and rushed towards the man.

  Li Yanqing ran for a mile before stopping. Seeing that although Qing'er was in a coma, her breathing and heartbeat were normal, he hid her in a big tree and ran back.

  Uncle Hu had stood up staggeringly, and the man was still lying on the ground. Seeing that Uncle Hu's right shoulder was bloody, Li Yanqing hurried forward to support him, "Uncle, you are injured!"

   "I'm fine, how is Qing'er?"

   "She's fine, just temporarily unconscious. I hid her in a big tree."

  As Li Yanqing said, he glanced at the man on the ground again, Hu Sheng smiled wryly and said: "He is already dead, if you hadn't shot him in the wrist, I really wouldn't be his opponent."

   "Since his martial arts skills are higher than Uncle, why does Fang La value Uncle more?"

   "You know Fang La?" Hu Sheng looked at Li Yanqing in surprise.

   "When I attended the Boys' Association in the county, I heard people say that he seems to be the leader of some religion."

   "Manichaeism, also known as Mingjiao, is very popular in the south of the Yangtze River, but Fang La values ​​me not because of my martial arts, but because of my high reputation in Damingfu."

   "What do you plan to do in the future, uncle?"

  Hu Sheng shook his head, "I don't know now, Qing'er, help uncle to bury this person's body first, so that no one will find out."

  The two of them worked together, dug a hole in the woods, buried the body deeply, and after everything was tidied up, Hu Sheng carried his daughter and Li Yanqing back to the village.

  . ． ． ． ． ．

  At noon, Hu Sheng found Li Yanqing. He sat at the table in silence for a while and said, "Qing'er, uncle has decided to leave here."

  Li Yanqing didn't feel it suddenly. Since Fang La knew where Uncle Hu was staying, and that Bian Lao San didn't go back, Fang La would definitely check it out, so he had to leave.

   "Uncle and his family are leaving?"

Hu Sheng nodded, "My father was buried in the Daming Mansion, and my mother wanted to accompany him. I plan to go back to the Daming Mansion to hide and settle the mother and three down there. Then I will go to Jiangnan again. We may not come back in the future. gone."

  Li Yanqing went back to the house and took thirty taels of silver, which was the money he used to write the book, and he also took out the seven pennies he earned from writing couplets for the store, 'Wow! ’ and put it on the table.

   "Take these thirty taels of silver with Uncle Qiguan Qian!"

  Hu Sheng was taken aback, and waved his hands again and again, "Qing'er, how can I ask for your money."

   "I earned the money myself. If uncle can leave a few days later, I can get another thirty taels of silver."

   "No! No! No!"

  Hu Sheng shook his head like a rattle, "That man has a lot of gold on him, which is enough for us to settle down. Besides, the uncle has saved dozens of coins in recent years, so he really doesn't need it."

   "Uncle, this money is for Xiao Qing'er. If you leave, they will be bullied if they don't have any money with them."

  Hu Sheng was moved, and nodded silently, "Okay! I will treat it as if the uncle lent it to you, and I will definitely repay it to you in the future."

Hu Sheng smiled again: "I promised your father before that I would never teach you martial arts, but he has no objection to keeping fit. After I leave, you must keep running. Run for an hour every morning according to the breathing method I taught you. If you insist on running for ten years, you will understand the deep meaning of my asking you to run."

  Li Yanqing nodded, "I will definitely persevere!"

Hu Sheng took out a thin, yellowed silk book from his pocket, and handed it to Li Yanqing, "This is what my father left me, and it is a few very practical sword techniques, but because I take the tough way , is of no use to me, I gave it to you, and with your speed, I think six or seven Khitan soldiers are no match for you."

Hu Sheng got up and said goodbye. When he walked to the door, Hu Sheng turned his head and smiled again: "You are really good at hitting stones. You can also practice archery in the future. Archery is actually the same thing as you hitting stones. I'm leaving, Qinger. Let's see you again!"

  That afternoon, Aunt Hu's family left Liwen Village in a hired ox cart. Li Yanqing drove them all the way to Lushan Town, and everyone shed tears to bid farewell.
