Chapter 200 - The 22th Cannon Fodder -
Tian Li felt a little irritable recently. She was an unrestrained female bandit, and she was ready to wash her hands with her father, but she didn't expect to meet that nasty Gege so unluckily, and they gave her a lesson.
I thought it would be over after that, but I didn't expect them to be retaliated by Ge Ge, not only let the officers and soldiers wipe out their cottage, but also put her father in prison, so now she has to reduce Half that nasty daughter-in-law came to find a way to defraud the prince's token.
But how is she going to cheat the token, such important things must be kept with her, she must find a way to get to the prince's side.
Tian Li walked up the street, thinking wildly in his head, and suddenly saw two people sneaking behind a woman in front of him, and those two people didn't look like they were good people.
At this time, those rumors suddenly entered Tian Li's mind. The traffickers were following the girl and waiting for the opportunity to catch them. Are those two people traffickers?
Although she used to be a bandit, she has never been a human trafficker. People like that should go to the eighteenth floor of hell. Let her see it today. Of course, it is impossible for her to do nothing. .
After a little thought, he picked up a wooden stick on the side of the road and followed. Seeing the girl in the front getting more and more remote, the joy on the two traffickers became more and more intense, and the wooden stick in Tian Li's hand was also clenched It's getting tighter.
In the current situation, she can't make a sound. If she makes a sound, she will only scare the snake and make the two traffickers run away. She can only stop for a while and attack from behind.
Tian Li's martial arts is not very good. Although she has some means of following others, she was quickly discovered by the two people in front of her. It's just that they chose to remain silent. Don't suffer.
And Tao Mi, who was at the front, naturally had no reason not to notice it. The reason why they walked further and further away was of course because they walked in a remote place, and they couldn't yell when they beat people up.
Finally reached the outskirts of the city, there were no people here, Tao Mi stopped and looked at the tree in front of her, the tree was a good tree, but the three people behind seemed to be not in the same group, so what would she do in a while manage?
The two men looked at Taomi and stopped, thinking she was going to do something, but they didn't expect to see what she was going to do after waiting for a long time, they just stood there without doing anything, leaving only a back view It looks very strange.
The two looked around, there was no one there, and it was so quiet that it was suitable for taking someone away.
Thinking of a man, he stepped forward, planning to take advantage of this moment to hold Taomi down, but he didn't expect that just as he took two steps forward, his leg was hit from behind with a stick, and he immediately fell to the ground.
The man who stayed behind looked back and just saw Tian Li still waving his stick, "Who am I? The relationship is you. You have been with our brothers all the way. Now I will let you know about our relationship." Brothers are great."
The man rolled up his sleeves and was about to go towards Tian Li. Just as Tian Li wanted to puff up his chest to prove that he was not afraid, he saw Tao Mi not far away had already picked up the stick she had thrown and threw it towards him.
Her pupils shrank, her eyes were wide open, and she just watched the stick hit the head of the man in front of her, and the man immediately fell to the ground.
And the man she happened to hit just now hasn't got up until now, it seems that he can't get up now.
"You are so powerful." Tian Li said sincerely, the stick she just hit was purely a blind cat meeting a dead mouse, and Taomi was able to hit the head with such a casual throw, it was really too powerful.
"It's okay." If it wasn't for the fact that these two people couldn't be killed, she would have smashed her head, "My name is Guan Lingshan, and I haven't asked the girl's name yet?"
"My name is Tian Li. Everyone in my family calls me Eleven, so you can call me Eleven too." Tian Li said with a smile.
"Thank you eleven girls today."
"No, no, in fact, your martial arts are so powerful, even without me, you can handle it by yourself." Tian Li was a little embarrassed, and felt that it would be ineffective if he followed or not.
Tao Mi smiled and turned her head to look at the two people who fell on the ground. She felt a little troubled. They were undoubtedly human traffickers, and she was definitely going to catch her, but how would she explain it now?
You must know that her character is a weak woman with no martial arts, is she going to collapse again?
"Bang it, it's not the first time you've done this, and you'll get used to it if you do it a lot." Mimi's voice came to mind just in time.
"What are you thinking? Let's send them to the yamen." Tian Li looked at the displeased Taomi and said, "If you can't take the two of you, I can help you take them to the government. Or you can wait here and wait for me to find officers and soldiers."
Although it's ridiculous for her to go to the government as a female bandit, but she is not a prisoner now, but a reporter, and she is Gege's daughter-in-law now, so there should be no danger.
"Then I will trouble you. I think it will take a lot of effort for the two of us to take them away. Please go to the government to bring the officers and soldiers over."
"Yeah, no problem, just wait, my feet are fast, I will definitely be back within an hour." Tian Li turned and left after speaking, the speed seemed to be quite fast.
Tao Mi turned around and looked at the two men who fell to the ground. Could she not lift the two men?
As long as she thinks, let alone taking them to the county government, even throwing them into the sea is no problem, but the problem now is that she can't openly come forward, otherwise Guan Sheng will be alarmed. Set still can't stand.
Put two people and sit by a tree, tie them up and give each of them two slaps, as expected, they all woke up, looked around in horror, and after realizing their situation, they all showed panic look.
"Tell me, who sent you here?" She heard what Guan Sheng said to Ning Maochun, and she also thought that what Guan Sheng said made sense. Most people would dare to kidnap so many girls. , and those girls have not been found until now. Apart from the fact that the people in the county government are not doing their job effectively, is it possible that they are afraid to do their job effectively?
"Heh, who sent us, I advise you to let us go, otherwise, if our superiors find out, they will definitely not let you go."
One of them said so.
The corner of Taomi's lips curled up, should she say that they are stubborn now, or should she say that they don't know how to advance or retreat?
This is obviously at a disadvantage, and you dare to say such a thing without shame, don't you know that your life is in the hands of others, so you have to be careful?
In this world, there are always people who don't know how to live or die. She wants to give them a way out, but they are always trying to die, so don't blame her.
Find a bottle of medicine powder from the space. She doesn't have the magical medicine powder like truth powder, but she has itching powder, which can also make you tell the truth.
He took out a dagger, squatted next to a person, rolled up his trouser legs, and the cold dagger stuck to his skin. Even though the rough man's skin was already rough, he could still feel the chills, "You and I Said, if you dare to do anything against me, just wait for the boss to punish you, the boss will definitely avenge me, and then you will be finished."
"Who is the boss?" The cold tip of the dagger was still slashing back and forth on the thigh, as if as long as she exerted force, the sharp dagger would penetrate into his thigh.
"The boss is the boss, he will never let you go." The man still said stubbornly.
Tao Mi uses her hands hard, she has no need to be merciful to this kind of person.
The sword pierced into the flesh, there was no sound, and the man screamed immediately. Tao Mi vaguely remembered that she had been an abducted little girl in her previous life, and she seemed to have treated human traffickers like this in that life. Not to mention that her methods of dealing with bad guys are really the same.
"Just use what you have. You call it 'one trick to eat everywhere'. Do you feel that I have a lot of culture in an instant?"
Tao Mi smiled and did not speak, the strength in her hands continued to increase, she was still very measured with her hands, she wanted to know something from them, so naturally she couldn't let them die.
"Don't tell me, who is the boss?" Tao Mi ignored the person who had already yelled until he fainted, and said to another person who had been drooling with his eyes wide open.
"I said it, I said it, I said it all." They had hit a hard board this time, how could they be so unlucky, it was so hard to see a person who was not bad looking, but still had martial arts on him.
"Well, I'm asking you now. If you answer well, I promise you will be unharmed and I will let you go, but if you play tricks with me, then don't blame me for being as rude as I treated him." I've treated you." Taomi pointed at the fainted man beside her and said.
The man nodded without hesitation. An hour ago, he thought it was a beautiful face, but now it looks like a devil, the devil who dragged them to hell?
No, he has never done anything bad. Everything was done by the boss. He didn't want to. The boss used his family to threaten him. He is innocent, "You ask."
"That's good." Tao Mi showed another bright smile, "Let me ask you, are you following me to abduct me?"
"Yes, we just want to abduct you."
"Then you also did those girls who were lost near the capital?"
Tao Mi looked over sharply, and the man almost choked on his own saliva when he saw it, but in order not to be killed, he could only quickly say, "Yes, no, no, those people were not taken away by the two of us, but the boss." It has nothing to do with me to let others take it away, it really has nothing to do with me, you must find out."
Finally got to the point, "Who is your boss?"
"The boss is the boss, I don't know who he is, I only know that he is the boss." The man said tremblingly, leaning his body on the tree trunk as much as possible, trying to get a little distance from peach honey, as if peach honey could be eaten Like they.
Tao Mi nodded, he could see that these two people were just scumbags, and they didn't know who was behind the scenes, "Where did you send those girls who were taken away?"
"This, the boss won't let me say it."
Tao Mi was actually amused by his answer, and the aura around her that was supposed to scare her has dissipated a lot, if she doesn't say it, she knows it.
"Okay, if you don't tell me, I won't ask." Taomi stood up, and poured the tickle powder in her hand on the thigh|thigh that she scratched just now.
After a while, that person woke up leisurely, "Save me...help me."
"No one can save you, tell me, where is your boss?" Tao Mi said leisurely with her arms folded, looking down at the two people below.
"It's... just..."
"The boss won't let you talk." Another man shouted.
"But I'm really in pain."
"You said that this woman will not let you go, and the boss will punish you. If you don't tell me, maybe the officers and soldiers will come over in a while, and the boss can find a way to save you. Think about it."
Listening to the conversation between these two people, Tao Mi didn't feel that they were stupid at all. See how wise the words were, and thought of everything, but why didn't he think that if she told the officers and soldiers before the officers and soldiers came over? They were killed.
After all, it wasn't the first time she had done murder.
Instead of talking nonsense with them, I scratched a few marks on the legs of the two of them, so that they had no strength to shout, and then sprinkled itching powder.
She has never tried the effect of this tickling powder, but she heard that it is like having many ants gnawing on it. The name and effect of the powder can't be much different, after all, it is a serious manufacturer.
"This is a private medicine, not from a manufacturer." What the hell is this to treat his medicine as the manufacturer's medicine?Are his things so cheap?
"Aren't you going to say it now? After I say it, I can at least guarantee your short-term comfort. If you still obey your boss's so-called orders, then let me continue to suffer and wait for your boss to save you."
Throwing the dagger and the medicine bottle back into the space, looking at the two people who were suffering so much that there was no blood on their faces, the effect of the itching powder is good, but there is one thing that is not good, why can it stop the bleeding?
She has melted so many ways, but now she doesn't bleed anymore, I feel so frustrated.
"You don't understand this. If the blood bleeds out, the effect of the itch powder will not be good, so of course you have to put some materials to stop the bleeding, so that they will suffer so much, and they won't lose too much blood. die."
Mimi flew out of the space and swayed in front of the two men. Looking at their painful expressions and the beads of sweat coming out of their foreheads, he expressed that he was very satisfied with his results.
"Boss is here... Boss is in Fa... Fahua Temple, please disturb me, please."
Fahua Temple?
It is a temple near the capital. Many relatives of the royal family go there to offer incense. I heard that the masters there are also very effective. They are actually in Fahua Temple. Does that mean that Are those abducted girls also hiding in Fahua Temple?
"I can talk to you now, and you can't take your word for it. Give us the antidote." One of the men fell to the ground and said weakly.
A big man lying on the ground like a dog, what does it look like to pray for an antidote like this, even a human trafficker can't be without a little courage, he doesn't deserve her antidote at all.
Jumping up the tree, she was wearing green clothes today, but now that she was on the tree, she couldn't be seen from below. She took out the jade flute and played it softly on her lips.
Suddenly, there was some noise on a tree not far away. After taking a look, Taomi didn't care and continued to play the flute.
With the sound of the flute, several green snakes came out of the grass. Under the panic of the two men, the snake bit off the ropes that were originally tied to their bodies, climbed onto the two men, and walked from peach to honey. The wound where the dagger was scratched began to bite.
Although there is a hemostatic drug in the itch powder, some blood still remained outside, and the snake began to bite along the smell of blood.
The two men were already in great pain, but they didn't have the strength to cry out anymore. They could only move little by little to avoid the snake's bite, but it was useless because the snake was already wrapped|wrapped around their legs. No matter how they move, the snake will not move, and it will also arouse the factor in the snake's heart that wants to bite more.
Taomi put away her flute and watched the setting sun in the distance from the tree. Watching the setting sun from the tall tree trunk is really beautiful, especially the Forbidden City in the distance. The building looks even more glittering and majestic.
There are some things that I don't like at first, but as long as I look at them from another angle, they can still be beautiful.
Within half an hour, Tian Li rushed over with an officer. Everyone was very surprised that they didn't see Taomi, but Tian Li pointed out that the two people who were eaten by the snake were human traffickers.
"What are you still doing in a daze? This human trafficker is right in front of you. Don't you want to catch him?" Tian Li, an officer and soldier who just stood there doing nothing, felt a bit depressed.
Just now when she was in the yamen, she spent a long time talking and talking to prevent these people from sending troops. In the end, she had to move out Gege's daughter-in-law to let them follow. The useless officers and soldiers don't know how they caught her father in the first place.
"Young Mistress, it's not that we don't do anything, it's the two snakes. We don't have anyone who can catch snakes here, or we should wait for the snake catchers to come." The head catcher said a little embarrassed.
As we all know, Sita Rashuo Lang Gege is notoriously unreasonable. Now, if you offend her daughter-in-law, of course you can't do it, but this snake, who can guarantee that the two snakes are not poisonous? , It's not convenient to go to the doctor in this deep mountain and wild forest, so let's wait for the snake catcher to come.
"How can you do this? You are afraid that you will be bitten by a snake and you will not be able to catch the snake. Do you want to watch those two people be eaten by the snake?" Of course it is no pity for a human trafficker to be eaten by a snake, and it can even be said that He deserved his crime, but if he died like that, wouldn't there be no clues?Where are the girls who were taken away?
"Young Mistress, we really don't know how to catch snakes, so just let us go." The head catcher continued, "There are old and young among us, and it's not easy to make a living. The most important thing is to be bitten by a poisonous snake, what should the big family in our family do?"
Now all the headhunters and fast catchers regard Tian Li as a young lady who doesn't work hard and doesn't know the grain, the kind who doesn't understand other people's sufferings at all.
But Tian Li was not the kind of person they thought at all, "Okay, you are not afraid of biting me."
As she said that, she rolled up her sleeves and walked forward. She also has some life experience and knows that the two snakes are not poisonous at all. Otherwise, those two people would not have such white faces now, after eating so much meat , if it was a poisonous snake, his face would have been black and blue long ago.
Tian Li stepped forward, coincidentally, as if the two snakes sensed someone approaching, they quickly rushed to the side of the grass and disappeared.
"Okay, now you can take this company of human traffickers back." Tian Li said, looking at the stunned head catcher and fast catcher behind him.
"That young lady, we can take the two of them back, but what about the victim?" Didn't it mean that some traffickers wanted to abduct a young girl?Why are there no girls now?
Tian Li looked around and was sure that there was no Taomi. It might be that the girl's family ran away because they were afraid of the snake when they saw the snake. He said confidently, "Am I not a victim? These two people want to take me away. Can't you get knocked out?"
She didn't forget that these two people want to show her how good she is, so she will show them how good she is now.
It's a bit difficult to catch the head. This obviously doesn't match what I said before I came here, but there's nothing I can do about it. Who told her to be Ge Ge's daughter-in-law? I can only listen.
"Then invite young mistress to come with us."
Tian Li nodded and left with them satisfied.
Seeing them go far away, Tao Mi jumped down from the tree, looked at the tree where she played the flute and said, "Everyone is gone, don't you plan to come out?"
"The girl has good eyesight, and she can actually know where I am." Ning Maochun was dressed in black, with a silver mask on his face, looking very mysterious.
Tao Mi walked in front of him, "I warn you, don't say anything you see, the two people just now will end up not telling the truth, if you talk nonsense, I will let you know, telling the truth will also have the same end. "
"You..." Are you threatening him?It seems that the master really didn't know that she knew martial arts.
Ning Maochun was beautiful in his heart, as if he knew something important.
"Remember what I said, don't think I'm joking." Said Tao Mi, and walked to the other side, which was the direction of the village where the Guan family was located.
He had just seen his newlyweds walking around on the street on the roof of the capital, but he didn't expect to see his wife followed by two thieves, and the one in front was Tao Mi, so he hurried Put on black clothes and a mask and go with them.
Originally, he wanted to protect the two of them, but he didn't expect his wife to be so fierce, Tao Mi was so powerful, cutting the man's thigh with a dagger was effortless, it seemed as simple as cutting pork.
Later, although the two people were sprinkled with "stop bleeding" medicine, they were still in great pain and had to tell where they hid their feet.
Ning Maochun just watched until he could no longer see Taomi, then took off his mask, took off his black clothes, revealing the Chinese robe inside, rolled the mask into his clothes and threw it on the tree, walking like a peach Honey walked in the direction she had just walked.
He really wants to see what she can do to him, and tell his master about Fahua Temple by the way.
Kill two birds with one stone, which is great.
In the past two days, Guan Sheng was so annoyed by his senior brother's affairs that he was in no mood to take care of Taomi, let alone ask her if she wanted to get married.
Today, when she came back, Taomi just asked casually, Taomi also said something casually, and then went back to the room.
"Why is Maochun here at this time?"
"Master, I have something to tell you." Ning Maochun glanced at Taomi's closed door, knowing that she must be able to hear what they said.
Guan Sheng also glanced at Taomi's door, "Come with me."
Ning Maochun briefly told Guan Sheng about the Fahua Temple, but he didn't talk about Taomi and Tian Li, and he didn't know why, but he chose not to.
"Fahua Temple?" Guan Sheng asked suspiciously. Fahua Temple is a temple where nobles in Beijing go, and there are many beautiful girls there. very likely to be.
"Master, what are we going to do now?" Although two people have been taken away, he and Tao Mi can tell that those two people are just two errand runners. gave up.
"Although two people have been arrested, I don't think they will tell where they are. It's good that you can ask where they are, but it's a pity that your identity is unknown. Otherwise, you can take them to the court as witnesses." Hua Temple directly arrested people."
Guan Sheng thought for a while, "Well, I'm afraid I will trouble you with this matter."
"Master, if you have any plan, just tell me. I will do what I can. We all want to bring the bad guys to justice as soon as possible. Don't say whether it is troublesome or not."
"Aren't you a newlywed recently? You go to Fahua Temple to fulfill your vows, saying that you and your wife have a very good relationship, thank the Buddha for the blessing of marriage, and after you come out of Fahua Temple, you go to the government. , they dare not neglect." Hope this is not a bad idea.
"I know Master, I'll pack up and go to Fahua Temple tomorrow." Ning Maochun nodded and said.
"You have to be careful. According to the current situation, there are a lot of those people and their martial arts should not be weak. Otherwise, it is impossible to control the entire Fahua Temple. Don't act rashly if you are not sure of winning. I'll talk after calling."
"Well, anyway, tomorrow I will play by ear."
In the end, Guan Sheng and Ning Maochun agreed that Guan Sheng would wait not far outside Fahua Temple tomorrow. If he hadn't come out after noon, he would go up, but Guan Sheng didn't want such a thing to happen.
He is no longer the Bloody Ma Si from before. If possible, he doesn't want to have any connection with the past, but now, it seems that there is no connection.
But it's good that his daughter was not involved in this matter, otherwise he thought he would definitely pick up the title of Bloody Hand Masi again.
Early the next morning, Ning Maochun told his family that he would go to Fahua Temple to fulfill his vow.
"Why don't I remember that you made a wish in Fahua Temple?" Shuo Lan didn't say she knew everything about her son's every move, but she also thought she knew 80.00% of it. She had never heard from her son before. In the past, Fahua Temple made a wish.
"Oh my mother, I'm so old, I can still tell you all my thoughts, of course I have some small thoughts of my own." Ning Maochun said with a smile.
Tian Li next to him curled his lips, as expected, he was still a child who hadn't grown up, and he couldn't even do such a thing as fulfilling a wish by himself.
"That's right, when the child grows up, Erniang can't always take care of her." Shuo Lan nodded and said, although she understood the truth, she still felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.
She was reluctant in every possible way when she married Zhang Luo before, but now she is going to fulfill her wish. It can be seen that she has made a wish before, and even told her that she does not want to get married. It seems that she is coaxing her.
"How about it, you go with your daughter-in-law, and you can still beg for a child. I heard that Fahua Temple has a new master, which is very effective."
"Ah? No need, mother, I'll just go by myself." He didn't intend to fulfill his vow at all, and there was a danger of having one more person.
"Then how can I do it? Sincerity is the most important thing to make a wish. You and your daughter-in-law go together so that you can move the Bodhisattva. Don't say anything. I will let Suyu prepare tributes for you."
"Then Er Niang, tell Suyu to hurry up, I even made an appointment with my friends to go to the teahouse." The time agreed with the master is noon, if he hasn't come out by noon, the master will find him alone Danger is worse.
Finally, under Ning Maochun's repeated urging and fourth urging, Suyu quickly prepared things, and Ning Maochun and Tian Li set out on the road together, riding in the carriage prepared by Shuo Lan for them.
Suddenly halfway through, Ning Maochun called to stop, "I said, what else are you doing?"
Isn't this person, can't he even go to incense with his own people without Eniang?
"You two are waiting here. Don't leave here until I come back. If you are hungry, eat the food inside. Anyway, don't leave here, do you know?" Ning Maochun patted the food box and said.
"I said, are you stupid? This is for Buddhas and Bodhisattvas to eat. You made us sick." Tian Zhe rolled his eyes and said, "And you asked us to do it here. Well?"
"Don't ask so many questions, I'll explain it to you when I come back." Ning Maochun got into the Shun forest beside him and disappeared.
At this time, Tian Li seemed to wake up from a dream, "I knew that you definitely didn't really want to go to Shangxiang. Using Shangxiang as a cover, you not only lied to your mother, but also lied to me. After I go back, I must tell you everything truthfully. Your mother-in-law said, let her see your true face."
Angrily, Tian Li took the food box and sat on the side of the carriage, opened the lid of the food box and began to eat. I have to say that Suyu's craftsmanship is still very good, especially the things used as tributes, although they are still vegetarian, But the taste is pretty good.
"I'll give you one to eat." Tian Li gave one of the dumpling in his hand to the driver, but the driver immediately refused, "I dare not."
"You can eat what is given to you. How can there be so much nonsense? I am much easier to talk to than that savage Gege of your family. You can rest assured that you will not tell anyone." Tian Li said very righteously.
"My little one, thank you, Young Mistress."
"It's easy to say." Tian Li waved his hands and said indifferently, suddenly felt the trees on the side of the road move, looked up, and just saw a figure walking farther and farther away, looking like a woman,
What a powerful martial art, she was able to jump up and down the trees. It would be great if she could also have such a powerful martial art.
If she had such powerful martial arts, she wouldn't have to think about using someone else's identity to live in that savage Gege's house like this, and she wouldn't have to go through the dog's hole as hard as the previous two days, and she could also go to jail to rescue her father and the others. Bring it out, why bother to look for the prince's token like now.
When Taomi first arrived at Fahua Temple, everything in the temple was normal, and the incense was in full swing. Many people came to the temple to worship Huizong. There were also many monks in the temple, but the monks here were a little different from the real monks.
Not all those who shaved their hair and put on underwear became monks.
In the last few rooms of Fahua Temple, there are more than a dozen people in each room, and there are four or five monks watching. All the monks in the temple are locked up by them, including the presiding abbot. Of course And those young girls who were abducted.
Everyone was tied up with ropes and placed in the corner. No one could connect this place with the temple just by looking at it.
There was a lot of incense in the front, and many people were tied up in the back. Just looking at the situation in the temple lobby in front, no one could have imagined that it was like that in the back.
I am afraid that many of the girls who worshiped Buddha in front of them came to pray not to be abducted, but they would not know that when they came here, they had already exposed themselves to the human traffickers.
Ning Maochun quickly understood the situation here, just like when he came, he left quietly, without seeing Taomi not far behind him during the whole process.
After Ning Maochun left, Taomi did not leave. Originally, it had nothing to do with her being abducted by the traffickers, but if it was related to Guan Sheng, then she couldn't ignore it.
Seeing those fake monks ostentatiously eating meat in the meditation room, Tao Mi couldn't help but wonder, is there such a stupid person?
Are they really not afraid of being discovered?Or do you really want to be discovered?Or do they already feel that it's okay to be discovered?
The author has something to say: [-] chapters already, spread flowers! ! !
