Chapter 1256 Hijacked
The sky is completely dark and you can’t see your fingers. The moon has already risen above the willow branches. The stars are filling the night sky. The birds have long returned to their nests and most of the lights in the houses have been extinguished. , the ancients who did not have many entertainment activities had fallen asleep. Zhu Pingan and his party even heard the sounds of several families making people on the way back.
Having watched so many modern short movies, Zhu Ping'an has long been immune to this, but Liu Mu and the others can't, their faces are all red.
"Ahem, the sound is so loud, I don't mind being embarrassed." Liu Dadao coughed and said with a red face in embarrassment.
“Haha, this is a voice that sows hope, indicating that the people are confident in surviving this flood.”
Zhu Ping'an didn't blush or pant, he was as steady as a dog, and even looked at the essence through the phenomenon and made a comment.
No matter the weather, it won’t stop! Stable as a mountain!
The young master is worthy of being a young master.
We only heard embarrassment, but Young Master heard hope. Liu Mu and the others could not help but admire Zhu Pingan even more.
In the deep night, Zhu Ping'an and his party returned to the county government office covered with stars and moon, tired and muddy.
When Fang walked into the county government house, the fragrant smell of chicken soup hit his face, and the pores all over his body opened after taking a whiff.
"It's so fragrant. This chicken soup is so fragrant. Girl Hua'er's skills have improved again. I'm so lucky, sir." Liu Dadao walked into the back house and sniffed his nose vigorously like a dog a few times. He said sincerely gave a thumbs up.
"Well, don't tell me, it's true. The chicken soup Hua'er stewed today is much more fragrant than the past few days. I am very lucky, and you are also very lucky. I will give you half of the pot later." Zhu Pingan said with a smile.
"Thank you, Master. However, we don't need the chicken soup. When we came back, we just ate the cakes and our stomachs were full."
Liu Mu and others thanked him repeatedly and declined.
"Why are you being polite to me? There is a big pot of chicken soup. Hua'er and I can't finish it even if we have two more stomachs."
Zhu Pingan said with a smile.
"Haha, you're welcome then. Thank you, Mr. Liu." Liu Dadao and the others laughed and rubbed the backs of their heads.
“Alas, we originally came to repay our kindness to the Master, but we didn’t expect that we would enjoy the blessings with the Master, and the debt would become more and more. Our ancestors, counting up to eighteen generations, have been poor farmers for generations. It is a blessing for the young master that in our generation, Xiao Qi has been promoted to an official due to his merits, but it has given our old Liu family a glorious ancestor."
Liu Dadao and others said with emotion.
"Haha, if you really think about it, I owe it to you. You saved my life in the capital, and you helped me defend the city when the Japanese invaders attacked it. Without you, I'm afraid I would have been in dire straits; The little flag officer was obtained through a bloody battle with the Japanese pirates, because For you to help me kill the Japanese, I have been promoted a lot, not to mention how much you have helped me on weekdays."
Zhu Ping'an smiled and shook his head, patting Liu Dadao. Their shoulders, he said gratefully.
"Young master, you not only saved our lives, but also avenged our parents, children, and fellow villagers. Not to mention this life, even the next life, and the next life, we will not be able to repay the kindness you owe us."
Liu Dadao and the others said excitedly.
"Haha, come on, let's continue the calculation, I'm afraid we won't be able to figure it out even in the morning. Today, everyone got up early in the dark and has been busy all day. Go back and change clothes and rest. Later I’ll bring you some chicken soup.”
Zhu Ping'an waved his hand and interrupted them with a smile. He didn't expect Hua'er's chicken soup to attract so many people.
"Thank you, Master." Liu Dadao and the others thanked them again, "Master, please rest early."
Zhu Ping'an smiled and waved his hand, and walked to the main room. Liu Mu, Liu Dadao and the others Go back to the wing rooms on both sides.
"Hua'er, the chicken soup today is pretty good," Zhu Ping'an praised as he pushed the door open and walked into the main room.
“Hey, Hua’er?”
Zhu Ping'an was a little surprised when he walked into the main house but didn't see Hua'er. Usually when he walked into the house, Hua'er would have been waiting at the door, rushing up to help him get things and bring warm water for him to wash his hands and change clothes.
"Ahem, uncle, I'm in the back room."
Soon, Hua'er's voice came out from the back room, and his voice was a little hoarse, different from his usual tone.
The oil lamp in the outer room is very bright, while the oil lamp in the inner room is dim. The difference in light between the two is relatively large.
Zhu Ping'an couldn't see clearly from the outside.
"Hua'er, what's wrong with your throat?" Zhu Pingan asked in surprise as he walked into the back room.
Zhu Ping'an couldn't be more familiar with Hua'er's voice, especially after spending time together in Jingnan. I didn’t think much about it.
"I may have caught a cold in the wind when I went out to buy groceries, and I have a fever and a stuffy nose." Hua'er explained in a hoarse voice in the back room.
Hearing this, Zhu Pingan, who had already stepped into the back room with one foot, suddenly stopped.
“Ah, if you catch a cold in the wind, that’s not good. There is a cooling fan in the study, I’ll get it for you.”
Zhu Ping'an said with great concern, and did not allow Hua'er to refuse, so he quickly stepped back.
However, Zhu Pingan's legs were only half a step back when his mouth was covered by a slender hand, and then a cold dagger appeared on his neck, followed by a giggle. Laughing, "Giggle, cunning guy, you still want to run away!"
As expected!
After Zhu Pingan was kidnapped, there was no surprise at all. He had already noticed something was wrong just now, so he stopped. In fact, Zhu Pingan felt something was wrong when he didn't see Hua'er as soon as he entered the door. In the past, Hua'er was waiting for him at the door regardless of rain or shine, but he didn't take it seriously. When he heard Hua'er's hoarse voice again, Zhu Pingan felt that something was wrong. He also felt that something was wrong, but he still didn't think much about it. It wasn't until Hua'er explained that the wind caused a cold, fever, and a stuffy nose that Zhu Ping'an realized that something was wrong, something was very wrong. Although Hua'er's voice is hoarse, it's not the hoarseness of a stuffy nose, but a deliberate hoarseness. Moreover, with Hua'er's character, not to mention a little fever and stuffy nose, even if he was seriously ill, Hua'er would drag his body over to serve him. How could he stay in the back room like now, waiting for him to come over? .
As soon as he was alert, Zhu Pingan discovered something wrong one after another. Every wrong thing was justifiable, but so many were unjustifiable. How could there be so many coincidences in the world? This painting is not that painting. .
Someone is pretending to be a painting!
Thinking of this, Zhu Pingan knew that the situation was not good.
However, although Zhu Ping'an had noticed that something was wrong, he remained calm on his face. He instantly thought of an escape plan in his mind, using the excuse of going to the study to get medicine to escape. As long as he took three steps back, With a safe buffer distance, if he shouted again, Liu Mu and Liu Dadao would come to escort him. However, he didn't expect his opponent to be so alert, as if he had expected that he would see through and escape. (End of this chapter)
