Chapter 7 Chapter 7 Enemy's Road is Narrow

Han'er frowned, and was about to speak, when suddenly a person outside the door shouted: "Qiniang has orders, everyone listen carefully!"It was said that a little girl of Lu Laoliu was lost in our hall. Qiniang told everyone to be careful, and quickly found someone and sent her out.A servant woman interjected: That's right, Young Master Pan is having a banquet tonight, so don't disturb the guests.Then there was the sound of footsteps, and someone was searching around. When Han'er heard this, his face turned pale and he was at a loss.The boy made a silent gesture to her, went over to lift the curtain of the altar table, pointed down, and said in a low voice: Quickly hide in.Han'er hurriedly got under the altar table.Not long after, the door opened with a bang, and a woman's voice said: Hey, Aguan, what are you doing here alone?

The boy said: Mother asked me to burn incense and light the lamp, and then sit down and eat something after finishing the work.Aunt Hong, what are you doing making such noise outside?Aunt Hong said: It is said that a little girl is lost, so let people look for it everywhere.The boy said: Really?I sat here for a meal, and I didn't see any little girls.Aunt Hong said: I originally said that the little girl probably ran out early, and they insisted on searching.Just search and search, why bother to make it so earth-shattering?The boy said: That's right, it's been hard work for you, Aunt Hong.Aunt Hong complained a few more words and went out.

Han'er hid under the table, holding his breath, not daring to move.The boy waited for Aunt Hong to go far away, so he came over and opened the table curtain, looked at her, and said with a leisurely smile: "Why, do you call me my good brother?" Han'er was helpless at this time, and the little boy helped her escape for a while, but she was annoyed that he didn't believe in her family background, and she also resented that he had no sympathy for herself, and he acted like taking advantage of others' danger and gloating, Feeling arrogance in my heart, I shook my head and said: I won't call!You just send me out.I don't even want your help.

The boy looked at her, clicked his tongue twice, and said: What a big temper!I also said that you are a limp little girl, useless at all, so you have such backbone.My mother will definitely like it when she sees it.All right!If you want to go out, I will send you out.As he said that, he picked up the package of snacks from the table, blew out the oil lamp, and went under the altar, saying, "Come with me." Han'er wondered, "Where are you going?"The boy said: You are a fugitive, do you want to go out through the gate swaggeringly?Lu Laoliu is a powerful old thief, he must have had someone guard the door early on, and as soon as you stepped out of the threshold of the Qingfeng Pavilion, he would immediately arrest you.I'll take you through the side door, those bastards don't know.

Han'er was dubious, and followed him to crawl behind the altar.But seeing a loose trap door on the wall behind the table, the boy poked his head out to look for a while, and then led Han'er through the trap door.Facing him was a carved red marble screen, and the sound of music and laughter came from behind the screen. It sounded like there were always more than ten people feasting in the hall behind the screen.The boy gestured for Han'er not to make any noise, and led her carefully along the screen for a section, through a door, and through a narrow corridor, at the end of which was a downward staircase.The two walked up more than twenty steps, turned several turns, walked back and forth for a while, and finally came to a small door.

The boy said: This is it.Push open the door and point out. Han'er hesitated, but seeing the darkness outside, he didn't know where it was, and he didn't dare to step out the door.The boy smiled and said: You are too timid, you are afraid when you see dark places.All right, I'll go out first.Jumping down first, it turns out that the door is not directly connected to the ground, it is about five feet above the ground.After the boy jumped out, he turned around and said, "You jump down, and I'll catch you."Han'er jumped down, the boy stretched out his arms to catch her, but his feet were unsteady, he took a few steps back, and the two of them fell to the ground together.

Han'er was about to stand up, but the boy held her back and said: Shhh!But hearing the sound of footsteps, two people approached quickly, arguing loudly.One of them said harshly: I have long suspected that there is something wrong with your sworn brothers.How could he let the little girl escape?Isn't this his fault?Another person said: Although Lu Laoliu is treacherous, he would not use this kind of method to me.Besides, he would benefit from selling the little girl.The person in front said: Hmph, what benefits did you promise him, why didn't I know?The latter said: He is a human trafficker, so naturally he has to withdraw.This one is not drawn to us, but to the buyer.The person in front asked: How much do you smoke?The latter said: I heard from him that it is 20%.The person in front gave a hey and said: so many!How much of our 1,500 taels should we give him or not?The latter said: I don't know.I originally wanted to ask him clearly tonight, but who would have thought that the banknotes in my hand would fly away when encountering such a stupid thing!

At this moment, Han'er could see clearly that he was in a very narrow alley, and the two talking were Wu Gang and You Jun.While talking, the two walked towards the boy and Han'er.Han'er's heart was beating wildly, they walked a few more steps, and they were about to step on the two of them.The boy hugged her and lay still on the ground, and his thoughts suddenly changed: These two bastards must be the two guards of the capital.How could it be so unlucky to meet them?But how to trick them away?He reached out and fumbled in the ground, touched the mud with one hand, wiped it on his own face, then on Han'er's face, and then tousled Han'er's hair.Han'er didn't know what he was doing, so she couldn't help but yelled out.

When Wu You heard the voice, they ran forward quickly, Wu Gang shouted: "Who is it?" The boy had already pulled Han'er, and limped forward to meet him, shouting in a hoarse voice: "My lord, please do me a favor!"My brother hasn't eaten for two days, please give me some money!As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to pull Wu Gang's sleeve, until it was covered with mud. Wu Gang scolded: "Little beggar, get out of here!"He waved his hand and hit the boy in the face.The boy fell to the ground, covered in dust, got up in embarrassment, pulled Han'er behind him, and said: "Little brother, these two masters are so cruel, not only refused to give alms, but even beat people."let's go!As he spoke, he pushed Han'er to the other end of the narrow alley.

Wu You and the two couldn't see Han'er's face clearly in the dark, but they didn't suspect it for a moment when the boy kept calling him little brother, they just thought it was two homeless beggars, hiding in this back alley for the night.The two moved forward again, You Jun suddenly remembered something, turned around and shouted: "Hey, little beggar, you come back." The boy was startled, stopped and turned around, and said vaguely: What are you doing?You Jun came forward, the boy was afraid that Han'er would be recognized by him, so he quickly pushed Han'er to let her go first, and blocked himself in the middle of the alley.You Jun stepped forward and asked: Are you a local?Do you know if there are other exits to this Qingfeng Pavilion besides the front and back doors?

The boy pretended to be stupid and said: Qingfeng Pavilion, what Qingfeng Pavilion?Did you mean the bad house?You Jun pointed to the high wall next to the alley and said: This is the brothel.The boy said: Is this a brothel?I don't know.What does a brothel do? Wu Gang stepped forward and said: This is a fool, it's useless to ask him.let's go.You Jun was about to turn around when he suddenly noticed that although the boy's clothes were dirty, they were not tattered, and he definitely did not look like a beggar's. He became suspicious, stretched out his hand to grab his shoulder, and shouted: You are not a beggar!What do you do?Say it! But the little boy was very slippery, he fled away as soon as he got short, stepped hard on his feet, a wooden board suddenly lifted up, and hit You Jun's crotch.You Jun screamed and cursed angrily: You bastard, you're going to die!The boy had already turned around and ran quickly, caught up with Han'er, and shouted: "Go!"Pushing Han'er forward quickly. You and Wu yelled and cursed, while quickly catching up.When they came to the entrance of the alley, the two children had disappeared. Wu and You looked around, but saw that one side led to the river and the other to the street.With sharp eyes, You Jun vaguely saw a figure moving on the river bank, and shouted: There!The two hurried to catch up.When I ran to the shore, I saw a small boat sailing up the river. A thin figure was standing at the bow of the boat, holding a pole in his hand to push the boat.At this moment, the moon and stars were thin, Wu You and the two of them saw clearly that the boy they met in the narrow alley was punting the boat, and there was another child sitting on the boat, who looked to be Han'er.Wu Gang yelled: The girl is on the boat!chase! The boat was not moving fast, and Wu You and the others caught up after more than ten steps.Wu Gang saw that the river was very narrow and the boat was not far from the shore, so he jumped up and jumped towards the boat.But the boy had already expected that, with a push on the pole, the boat turned, Wu Gang lost his foothold, and immediately fell into the water with a plop.He was from the north and didn't know how to swim, so he screamed in anxiety and drank several sips of water immediately. The boy had already propped the boat open, laughed loudly on the boat, and said, "Drown you Yankee!" You Jun didn't know how to swim, so he didn't dare to jump in to rescue him. In a crisis, he picked up a piece of rope from the bank, threw it into the water, let Wu Gang catch him, and hurriedly pulled him up.Wu Gang was dripping wet all over. After landing, he vomited and cursed.The two of them each suffered from the boy, and felt great hatred in their hearts. Seeing that the boy's boat had gone far away, they strode together to catch up with the boy's boat along the river bank.
