Chapter 92 092: Social Criticism Syndrome [Please vote]
The middle-aged man did not respond immediately.
He said he wanted to discuss it with others.
Shen Tang relied on his excellent hearing to hear the middle-aged man go back and say a few words with his head bowed to several colleagues. Those colleagues also had the same worries, but Shen Tang asked the "housekeepers" to wait at a distance and came to "borrow" flint, water and food alone, which didn't seem threatening.
The final result of the discussion was to help.
The middle-aged man nodded, turned around, waved to Shen Tang and the others, and said loudly: "You two little brothers, come here."
Shen Tang put on an innocent smile that was ignorant of the world, and faced a few The man clasped his fists and said, "Too many Thank you brave men, you are really helpful. Although it is not autumn yet, it is cold and windy at night on the mountain. We brothers are not wearing enough clothes and we are really worried about getting cold..."
After hearing this, the middle-aged man just felt like it. These two are squeamish.
Young people have strong yang energy, and it is not the twelfth lunar month of winter. How can they easily get frostbite after just one night in the wild?
Thinking this in my heart, but not showing it on my face, I took Zhai Le to get firewood and water bags and dry food - a bitter battle with bandits not long ago caused them to lose a lot of supplies, so this meeting There are not many dry food and water bags that can be taken out, only for two or three people.
The middle-aged man looked embarrassed and embarrassed, and reluctantly said: "Oh, there are only so many, please don't dislike it, little brother."
Zhai Le naturally won't dislike it.
It is extremely rare that they have so many wounded people and are willing to lend a helping hand to strangers they meet by chance.
Zhai Le was just thinking about how to delay staying. When he turned around, he saw Shen Tang sitting by the bonfire, talking and laughing with a few injured guards. Brother Shen's eyes are filled with pure admiration, appreciation and curiosity, making people subconsciously lower his age even further.
Brother Shen is not very old. He is not yet twelve years old. He has not started to grow at this age. His face is full of childishness and his eyes are too innocent and simple. At first glance, he would have thought he was under ten years old. age. Who would be too wary of a child with a yellow mouth?
I just think it's childish and cute.
Zhai Le: "..."
He always thought that he was quite able to speak. Even with his brother's character, sometimes he couldn't stand him and asked him to keep silent. It wasn't until I met Brother Shen in front of me that I realized that there are people outside the world and there is a sky outside the world. He kept talking without stopping.
When Zhai Le passed by, Shen Tang greeted him.
“Brother, come and sit down and listen to the story.”
Zhai Le was in a daze for a moment - if he hadn't remembered that he and Brother Shen were not brothers, and they had only known each other for a few days, just based on Brother Shen's warm attitude, familiar and intimate tone, and the sticky "Brother"... he really I doubt that I have such a big brother!
Brother and he are real brothers and have never been so close.
However, as a person who is good at seizing opportunities, he sat down very naturally and said with a smile: "What story?"
When no one was paying attention, the middle-aged man's face was slightly stiff. .
“This strong man told me that someone in his village met a raccoon demon in the mountains on a rainy night, and it was a male raccoon demon!” Shen Tang had a look of curiosity and yearning on his face, and he couldn’t help but dance when he was so excited.” In order to repay the favor, I gave the benefactor a mansion and fertile land and also promised me my life..."
To put it simply, he is a lazy farmer, his family is poor, he eats dirt, and makes a living by chopping firewood. One day, he was trapped on the mountain by heavy rain, and accidentally rescued the raccoon slave demon. In order to repay the favor, the raccoon slave demon not only gave the man a lovely wife, a mansion, gold and silver jewelry, but also promised her body to the man as his concubine, but was forced to separate because of the different paths of the human demon. From then on, it is a tragic story that she misses you every day.
The core of the story is vulgar and false, but because the storyteller said it happened to someone from the same village and was very eloquent, it has some credibility. In addition, the children listening to the story have little knowledge. , naturally listened with gusto and intoxication.
Zhai Le smiled - if this story is true, it was probably a farmer who dug up someone's grave and buried it with the owner to make a fortune. He was afraid of being spotted, so he directed and acted it out. Such a play "a raccoon slave repays a favor" - still cooperates with Brother Shen's performance on the surface.
Shen Tang lingers around to listen to stories, flattering and praising her from time to time. Even if it is a boring story, she can be surprised and satisfy the storyteller's sense of accomplishment. Her flattery is so flattering, those The wounded guard felt that his wounds were not so painful.
Where do you remember to drive people away?
There were seven or eight similar stories about goblins and ghosts. Shen Tang also appropriately matched their clichés and shook up his "family wealth". The essence was summed up in a few labels - "Many people with money are stupid", "Prodigal son is rich" "Second Generation", "Dandy and naive are easy to deceive".
Shen Tang also discovered some interesting things from the information they inadvertently leaked - they are indeed the guards of the Lin family in Lingzhou. It is estimated that the Lin family is a wealthy family. Because of the war, the family moved south and planned to defect to someone in the country. A powerful local relative. What's interesting?
The interesting thing is that Shen and Tang have not seen the so-called "family members" for so long. They are all bloody and injured guards.
Of course, this may also be because the team has too many people and accompanying items, and the host’s family members are elsewhere and do not mix with these guards. But Shen and Tang made a lot of noise, and it was impossible for the host to miss it, so they would come over to see them out of politeness.
Neither did it.
Taking advantage of her age and appearance, Shen Tang chatted with these guards. The volume was not too low, and there were no guards or maids to remind them to keep their voices down...
Although he had doubts, But Shen Tang did not propose it.
On the one hand, I was afraid of alerting the enemy, and on the other hand, I was worried that I might have misunderstood.
So——
Her mind turned around and she took the initiative to bring the topic to the group of bandits. Everyone had something to say about the group of bandits. They all gnashed their teeth with hatred and wished they could eat their flesh raw.
Shen Tang seemed to be trembling with fear from them.
In a tearful tone, she hugged "Brother"'s arm and cried: "Brother, the gangsters are so terrible, we won't be unlucky to meet them, right? Brother, Ah Tang really wants to go down the mountain, early Why would you go hunting in the mountains when you know this? I miss my father and mother, woo woo..."
Zhai Le froze, his expression stiff and petrified.
However, this did not affect the performance. From the outside, it seemed that he was frightened by the bandits and worried that he would lose his life at night.
So, with a handsome white face, he tried his best to soften his voice and begged the guards in a low voice to let their brothers rest nearby. They add up to a large number of people, and the bandits will weigh them when they see them. It's better than being separated and defeated by bandits one by one.
This request made the guards hesitate for a moment.
But Shen Tang and Shen Tang, especially Shen Tang’s previous performance, were too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people - what kind of disturbance can these two young boys create? Don’t be afraid even if there is a scam! Shen Tang was indeed pleasing to the eye, so he agreed.
With permission, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Because it was already dark, Shen Tang yawned sleepily, found a tree to lean against, and slept with her arms folded. Zhai Le was not far from her.
The two of them were completely defenseless.
Seeing this, the guards completely believed that they were harmless, and continued to watch and chat, but they did not know that Shen Tang, who seemed to be sleeping, made small movements to adjust his posture by sitting back.
She just heard an extremely slight "dong" sound.
There seemed to be something knocking on the wooden board.
Listen carefully and you can hear the rustling of clothing and wood. Her eyelids opened slightly, and her eyes quickly scanned the large wooden boxes protected by guards.
The sound came from one of the wooden boxes.
There is definitely someone inside!
There is indeed a problem.
