Chapter 155
Chapter 155
Chu Yu and Rong Zhi stayed in the carriage for three days. Although they didn't get beaten any more, they ate little food every day. Naturally, Chu Yu's burden had been taken away by the thieves. When they got out of the carriage, they were all dizzy with hunger.
Needless to say, this is also the way to prevent the bandits from fleeing. They are too hungry to run away, so they can only follow them.
On the last day, all the meat tickets were blindfolded, probably because they didn't want to let them know the exact location of the thieves' den. Although Chu Yu and Rong Zhi received special treatment and didn't put eye masks on them, there were two more horse thieves sitting in the car watching them, and they didn't let them look out of the car.
Although you can't look out, the light and darkness of the outside world can still reflect the car. Before the motorcade stopped, there was a very dark journey, just like a train running through a cave. The surrounding area fell into darkness. After that journey, the car suddenly lit up again.
As soon as Chu Yu was allowed to get off the bus, all he did was look around. She originally thought that the place where they stopped should be the headquarters of the brigands, and the stronghold built on the extremely steep mountains in the midst of the poor mountains and evil waters. But the fact proved that what she imagined was far from what she saw.
This is a peaceful and beautiful village. It is flat and open all around. The houses are arranged in order. The land is fertile. The paths in the fields are crisscross. Occasionally, we can hear the faint crowing of chickens and barking of dogs in the village. Eight or nine old women were working in the field. In the field, there were ears of wheat, heavy hanging, and green vegetables. They were growing very well.
What's going on? Chu Yu suddenly Leng God, the next moment, she immediately thought of, this piece of quiet Tian Yuan. He was about to be robbed by the ferocious horse thief, and he couldn't bear it.
However, to her great surprise, when the village saw the thieves coming, they were not afraid. Instead, they warmly welcomed them. The woman put down her farm work, and the children playing in the village also jumped to welcome them, wiping sweat and delivering water. It's like a family.
Chu Yu understood in a flash: here, it's the home of horse thieves!
When the brigands came back here, they all went home. Some of them had gone up to chat with their wives. Some of them also picked up their children and went around. Even the most ferocious brigands showed a soft and warm expression.
Outside, they are ferocious ghosts, plundering property and life, but back home. They are good husbands and good fathers. The whole family is very happy, even if the happiness is based on the misfortunes of others.
Rong Zhi stands beside Chu Yu. He understood the whole story earlier than Chu Yu. Seeing that the bandits around him were relaxed, he whispered to Chu Yu: "I guess it's true. This group of bandits have been running rampant for more than ten years. They are vicious and come and go like the wind, although the officers and soldiers have gone out to exterminate them. But they can't find their old nest, but it turns out to be such a place. "
The location of the village should be extremely hidden. Even if someone comes to the village by chance, they will not think that such a peaceful place is hiding the ferocious truth.
At least half of the brigands left the team to join their families, while the remaining half continued to escort meat tickets. All of them were divided into two groups. In the two rooms at the head of the village, Chu Yu and Rong Zhi live in a comfortable environment, while boss Ren and others are driven into another humble room.
Chu Yu knew that they could be treated with courtesy all the time. Almost thanks to Rong Zhi's lie, the gentry were noble after all. Considering their identity and the huge ransom, the brigands will try their best to treat them well; However, the identity of the royal family can not be revealed, because this identity means that there may be military intervention. In order to avoid trouble, the horse thieves will kill them as soon as possible.
When Chu Yucai and Rong Zhi enter the house, there is a loud sound behind them. Instead of looking back, she looks around.
At this time, it was almost noon. A window about seven inches long and wide opened on the wall, which brought light to the room. Chu Yu saw clearly the situation inside. There was no bed in the room, but thick straw was spread in the corner of the wall, which occupied half of the floor of the room. It was the place for people to sleep.
The house was clean, and there were two ponies stacked at the foot of another wall. Besides, there were no other utensils.
In their capacity, even if it is still the same treatment, we can imagine how bad it will be in another room.
Chu Yu was still looking at her. Rong Zhi had already passed her to the straw. She turned over and lay down on the thick straw. She sighed: "I can lie down."
Seeing his relaxed freehand brushwork, Chu Yu stepped closer and said, "if you have time to sleep, why don't you think about how to get away first." She kept her voice low in order to have ears.
Rong Zhi didn't get up. He just lay down quietly and looked at Chu Yu standing beside him. His eyes were dark and calm: "I can't go. The wind chasers have been rampant for more than ten years, and even the army can't do anything about them. It can be seen that this place is hidden. Before you and I can find a way out, I'm afraid that we have already died under the random sword."
Chu Yu looks out of the window. The village is still so peaceful and beautiful. The horse thieves put on their farming clothes and come to work in the fields. If they had not seen their cruel behavior, Chu Yu could hardly believe that they were a group of horse thieves.
Everyone in the village has a smile of satisfaction on his face. This land is so beautiful that it is like a paradise in the legend. However, the happy life in the paradise is bought by the blood from outside.
She can imagine the survival mode of this village. At ordinary times, women and the elderly are doing housework and farming, while men go out to rob and kill people. No matter what the reason for their robbery is, this is not the simple and peaceful Peach Blossom Land described by Tao Yuanming.
Knowing what Chu Yu was looking at, Rong Zhi said faintly: "you can be a little relieved that Jiangling is a long way from here. It will take some time to go back and forth. Even if they arrive at Jiangling, they may not find that we are fake."
Chuyu smell speech slightly surprised, turn to see him, but see Rongzhi smile, not in a hurry..
"Instead of worrying about things that are so far away, you'd better come with me and take things as they are." He patted the straw beside him and said with a smile, "don't you try? You have a high status. I don't think this straw has ever slept, have you? Come and have a try. It's very comfortable. "
Chu Yu hesitated for a moment and learned to stop. She lay down with him side by side. There were some thick straw in the straw, which poked at her back through her clothes, making her skin slightly itchy. However, the fluffy feeling under her body made her spirit tense for several days. Chu Yu suddenly relaxed her tension.
Turn the Mou is to face up Rong Zhi dark Mou son, Chu jade tiny smile way: "as expected very different."
