Chapter 42 Robbery on the Road
Chapter 42 Robbery on the Road
However, not only did the Chu family turn a blind eye to such a strange situation, but even the previous embroidered clothes law enforcement officers did not pay attention to it.
Chu Ci's heart sank suddenly, and he always felt that there would be trouble again in the future because of this.
However, Chu Ci still tried to test it, "Husband, can you see anything unusual about Chu Ling'er?"
Fan Jingrui nodded and said, "Well, when I was attacked by wild wolves, I thought it was just a coincidence. It wasn't until I was at Ping'an Pharmacy that I was really sure. But grandpa and the others didn't seem to notice."
It seems that if you want to completely kill the original heroine Chu Ling'er, you still have a lot of trouble.
Chu Ci stopped talking about this disappointing topic and instead talked about the purple-robed envoy mentioning Divine Doctor Hua: "Husband, do you know Divine Doctor Hua?"
"Well, grandpa once had a token left by Doctor Hua. With this token, you can ask him to help you once unconditionally..." Before he could finish his words, the carriage was suddenly forced to stop at a high speed.
The driver, Fan Qilin, stuck his head into the carriage and said, "Brother, sister-in-law, a group of people suddenly appeared in front of us."
"Let's go see what's going on!" Chu Ci and Fan Jingrui had just lifted the carriage curtain when they heard a loud duck voice shouting, "I built this road and planted this tree. If you want to pass this way, you have to leave money to pay for your passage!"
Several boys, about twelve or thirteen years old, each holding a red tasseled spear, lined up in a row and blocked their way.
He clearly has a childish face, but he insists on pretending to be ferocious.
I don't know where this ignorant half-grown kid came from, but he actually learned how to rob people on the road.
Even so, Qian Chuanzi did not dare to be careless. He took a step forward, drew the sword from his waist, and said, "Children, you know that if you intercept the officials, we will execute you on the spot, which is reasonable."
When the teenagers heard that the person who stopped them was actually a police officer, they were immediately scared. But retreat? At this age, face is more important than anything else. "Big Brother, what should we do?"
"Back off!" Datou knew the priorities of the matter, but someone was not happy: "Brother Datou, it was you who said you would buy pens and ink for Hengge'er, how can you go back on your word?"
After saying that, he rushed towards Qian Chuanzi.
The key is that this guy is quite strong and his moves are also quite decent. If it were just an ordinary person, they might have succeeded.
Chu Ci also saw that the boy who rushed to kill was the culprit. He immediately took out the ice arrow, took aim, and shot through the boy's arm with one arrow.
"Stop, we surrender. Erniu, put down the gun." Datou shouted and cursed in his heart, MD, I was just bragging, do I need to risk my life for it?
Chu Ci also saw that this big head was a person who could judge the situation. However, such people often had no moral bottom line.
But the guy named Erniu is quite interesting. It seems that Datou has committed a huge crime by not buying pens and ink for Ruige. What a complete idiot.
Similarly, Qian Chuanzi was also annoyed by Erniu's stupidity and clumsiness. He snatched the red tassel spear and kicked Erniu hard. Erniu could not bear it and fell to the ground.
At this time, the other half-grown children were really scared, and they began to say incoherently: "Don't kill us, it's all Erniu's fault, he instigated us to do it."
"Yes, it was Erniu who said that the people down the mountain have too much money to spend."
"Yes, yes, yes. He also said that Brother Heng is the young master of Tianheng Trading Company. As long as Brother Heng has a promising future, we can all live a good life."
Only Big Head had a dejected look on his face and said nothing.
Chu Ci became interested and simply walked forward, "Why don't you defend yourself? Have you accepted your fate?"
“I…” Datou didn’t know whether to say it or not. After struggling for a long time, he finally said, “We are refugees, and our lives are worthless. Today… Today is also our bad luck. You can kill us or chop us up, it’s all up to you.”
Chu Ci didn't expect to touch someone's sore spot. He was stunned and didn't know how to respond for a moment.
Qian Chuanzi, on the other hand, didn't believe it at all. "Refugees? What kind of refugees can raise so many idiots? Tell me, where are you from and what are your names?"
"I..." After all, he was too naive. Datou wanted to gain sympathy, but unexpectedly exposed his identity.
Chu Ci felt like she was going to be a useless person since "Xing'er" was running out of energy. Her brain wasn't enough, so she had to rely on her husband. She gently pushed Fan Jingrui beside her and said, "Husband, how true do you think the words of the big-headed kid are?"
"What do you want to do?" Fan Jingrui, who had long been accustomed to Chu Ci's imaginative style of doing things, hurriedly asked.
Chu Ci did not deny it: "If Datou is not lying, can we buy them? This way, it will be more convenient for us."
Fan Jingrui was familiar with Chu Ci's character, so he began to seriously consider the feasibility of this matter. Finally, he said, "If he is willing."
The two did not avoid others when they spoke, and Datou immediately responded loudly: "I do."
Ah, are slaves so active these days? Chu Ci was speechless, but Fan Jingrui understood that refugees, especially those who had lost their registered permanent residence, had almost no chance of turning over a new leaf.
Although being a slave is hard, if you meet a good master, you can live a good life.
However, Chu Ci, who came from a peaceful era, naturally could not understand it and dared not say more.
After that, Fan Jingrui asked some more questions. After confirming that he could control this kid, he said, "Are your parents still alive? If they are, let them sign this indenture."
Just like that, the remaining young men immediately became interested. One of them even boldly asked, "Master, can you buy us too? We can work and have martial arts skills. We definitely won't eat for free."
Even the idiot named Erniu looked at Fan Jingrui with anticipation.
Fan Jingrui also asked them some questions, but each person's questions were different. When it was Erniu's turn, Fan Jingrui asked, "Do you have a father, brothers, or brothers?"
Erniu nodded, and Fan Jingrui continued to ask: "So when you make money, will you take care of them first, or the Heng brother you mentioned?"
"Brother Heng, Brother Heng can study. As long as Brother Heng can make a name for himself, our parents will have someone to rely on." Erniu's answer really made Chu Ci unable to bear to look at it.
"In my opinion, you are not suitable to follow us. Instead, you can take this opportunity to build a good relationship with Brother Heng who will be very successful sooner or later."
Erniu was dumbfounded, feeling very unwilling: "Why? Aren't they all the same? Since you can take them in, why can't you take me in as well?"
Fan actually shook his head: "This is the difference between you and them. You have no brains, but you still like to be smart."
