Rebirth of Shuangshu

Chapter 104 Tao Qiu
Lin Xiaoxiao returned to Taoyuan again.

She tossed about in the village for more than an hour, and the village chief and others in Taoyuan were still waiting for her.

She has gained a lot this time, and there are many things that are suitable for leaving to the villagers.

"I seized a lot of things outside, which are suitable for use in the village."

With a big wave of Lin Xiaoxiao's hand, a pile of weapons filled the ground.With another wave of his hand, a pile of wine jars filled half of the cave.With another wave of his hand, a pile of dried meat and preserved fruits.Another wave of hand, a box of silver money.

"I've made a lot of trouble tonight, and the group of people outside will probably leave."

Everyone's eyes lit up.Xin Dao sure enough Shannv has magical skills.

Lin Xiaoxiao added: "When the group of people outside leave, everyone doesn't have to be as cautious as they are now. But until the world is stable, we will still live in Taoyuan. These weapons, find some young people to practice. If you encounter something in the future Things can also have the power to resist."

The village head said: "There is no busy farming this year, so we really shouldn't let the boys relax. With these weapons, everyone can protect the village."

Lin Xiaoxiao warned: "Alcohol is easier to preserve than clear water. You can't drink too much at one time. If you get drunk, you will either fall asleep or go crazy. Or you can mix it with water or boil it to drink. The village chief and the village elders will see what happens .”

Those people outside, because they were drunk and slept too much, didn't give them any chance to resist.

Not to mention the food.

Lin Xiaoxiao handed over a box of money to the village head: "There are about a few gold here, keep it as a spare. If you can spend money to solve it, don't be reluctant."

The money looted from the Korean treasury is estimated to be tens of gold, but Lin Xiaoxiao dare not give too much to the villagers.

If a small village like this has a lot of money, it may not be a blessing, but a disaster, and it will be even worse if people think about it.

In addition, Lin Xiaoxiao also left some medicinal materials for everyone, which are commonly used to cool and relieve heat, kill bacteria and reduce inflammation.

Lin Xiaoxiao did everything she could think of.

She herself sighed in her heart that she was a caretaker.This was the case when we were doing grassroots before, and it is still the case now.

The villagers bid farewell to Lin Xiaoxiao with tears in their eyes.

Lin Xiaoxiao was also very reluctant.After all, it was a village that she had built with her own hands, and the villagers here could be said to be the most trusting and loyal to her.

But Lin Xiaoxiao didn't forget that there are still things to do when she goes back.

This night, more than 2000 points were gone.Lin Xiaoxiao didn't regret it.

Her harvest tonight is also very rich.There are dozens of gold in cash, and the value of jewelry, jade and bronze is inestimable.

Lin Xiaoxiao was really lucky.The plan of the group of Koreans was to transport the slaves to South Korea first, and then transfer a group of people from South Korea to transport property.So, what Lin Xiaoxiao left was all that their slave hunting team had found in a few months.

With a batch of belongings and money, Lin Xiaoxiao felt that her shortcomings had been made up for.

She used to trade with people either in exchange for medical skills or barter.I don't have a lot of money in my hand, and sometimes I can't buy what I want.

Moreover, they cannot go to the city without money, which leads them to sleep in the wilderness most of the time.Comfort in sleeping cars and tents will still be compromised.

Having money is different.You can be willful, you can live in an inn in the city, you can buy beautiful things.

The location sent back is not in the car, but in the open space in the middle of the village.

The surroundings are quiet, only a bunch of bonfires that are about to go out are dancing flames.

It was still early morning, when people were sleeping soundly.

Lin Xiaoxiao quietly came to the SUV.As soon as her figure swayed on the window, the door opened from the inside.

Cui Panpan was still awake, and was listening to the audio on his mobile phone with his earphones on.Seeing the smile on her face that hasn't faded away, she must be listening to "Guo Degang Crosstalk Collection" again.

It is said that Lin Xiaoxiao used to often go on wild adventures, and saved a lot of novels, movies, TV dramas, and various audio and video in her mobile phone, just for use in places without internet.

Lin Xiaoxiao listened to these things so quickly that her ears became callused, but Cui Panpan felt it was very fresh.She seems to especially like cross talk jokes.

After closing the car door, Lin Xiaoxiao whispered, "It's fine in the mountains. I left food and drink for them, so they can last for a while."

Cui Panpan nodded: "Since you're relieved, you should go to sleep for a while, and you have to drive on your way until dawn."

Lin Xiaoxiao said, "Aren't you going to sleep?"

"I just woke up," Cui Panpan shook his phone, "Go to sleep."

Lin Xiaoxiao had no choice but to close her eyes on the passenger seat.

An hour later, it was dawn.

Lin Xiaoxiao got off the passenger seat, feeling exhausted.

After breakfast at Axiu's house, Lin Xiaoxiao also left some supplies for them, including a few swords.She still remembers how the villagers looked with kitchen knives and axes.

According to what was agreed yesterday, Zhao Xu stayed and continued to be a hostage, and Anan, Lin Xiaoxiao and the others returned to the court.The reason for this arrangement is because Lin Xiaoxiao has not received points from Zhao Xu, so she still cannot fully trust him.

Lin Xiaoxiao told Axiu a few words, and then asked everyone to get in the car.

You must drive to the land, they have no horses, and the sheep cart is too slow.And SUVs are more convenient.

Cui Panpan and Chun'er had to stay.The two of them are not strong enough to fight, so they have to take care of them when they go along.

Ah Xiu's father was going to follow, as well as the girl's parents, plus Anan, no amount of people could sit down.

Lin Xiaoxiao drove, Ah Xiu's father sat in the passenger seat, Anan sat in the middle of the back row to guide the way, and the couple sat on both sides of Anan.

The couple is down-to-earth.Lin Xiaoxiao got points from them yesterday.Everyone in this car can be trusted.

The sun was shining and it was very hot early in the morning.There were hardly any people to be seen on the road.

Lin Xiaoxiao didn't care about the passers-by at all, and drove on the official road.

The court is in Taoqiu City.It takes half an hour to drive there.This is because the road is not easy to walk, so I drove slowly.

Taoqiu is in the north of Jishui.It is one of the three major commercial cities in the Song Dynasty.

It used to be very prosperous here.It's just that the population is declining now, and the resident population in the city is only a few hundred.

The mass grave mentioned by Anan is in the west of Taoqiu City.

This place was originally a valley, like a natural pit.Zhao Yan knew about this place somehow, and bought this valley as personal property.Later, there were rumors in the mansion that Chaoyan would throw the dead in this valley.

This is the countryside.Because of its bad reputation, no one usually comes here.Chaoyan didn't bother to send someone to guard here.

The car stopped outside the valley, and everyone got out of the car.Lin Xiaoxiao put away the car and gave everyone a mask.

Mass graves are places without burials.The bones were thrown there, and no one made a hole for them, and they were not buried.What would such a place look like in summer?Lin Xiaoxiao didn't dare to imagine it before.

Is this the bottom line of human nature?Lin Xiaoxiao didn't know.

Because time is not long, the girl's bones can still be identified.

No one cries.

The girl's parents carried her body out.They didn't want to take her back to the mountain for burial, because their family also fled, and the mountain where they temporarily lived was not their ancestral land.

They buried her on the other side of the mountain.The tombstone in front of the grave was chipped out by her father bit by bit with a dagger, and the words "Tomb of A Nu" were engraved on it.

It turned out that this girl was called A Nu.It turned out that A Nu's father was literate.

Anan looked a little sad, but she didn't say anything.No consolation, no apology.Chaoyan's crimes have nothing to do with her.

After the burial of A Nu, A Nu's parents found Lin Xiaoxiao.

"Also ask the mountain girl to make amends. Our husband and wife don't plan to go back to the mountain."

Lin Xiaoxiao looked at them and asked, "Are you going to the city?"

The girl's parents looked at each other and replied respectfully: "Yes, we want to avenge my girl."

Lin Xiaoxiao was silent for a while, and beckoned Anan over: "Chaoyan lives in Taoqiu, right? Does he usually go out?"

Anan had already understood what the parents of the girl were going to do, looked at the parents of the girl with wide eyes, and then looked at Lin Xiaoxiao: "Every summer, Chao Yan will leave the mansion at dusk, and will go out and play with a group of dudes."

Lin Xiaoxiao asked: "Do you go out of the house every day?"

Anan said: "Chaoyan is very active, and he doesn't trouble the house. They will kidnap beautiful women when they see them on the street, and they will snatch things they like directly. They will also ride horses in the market. , no one dares to control them."

The sun is the smallest at dusk in summer, which is the most suitable time of the day to go out, and it is also the busiest time of the day for the market.

Anan continued: "For a while, the people in the city would deliberately avoid them, but Chaoyan threatened the shops on the street. If they made them happy, they would just make trouble in the street. If they were not happy, they would directly smash the shops. Bao, often intentionally tricks people into going to the market at that hour, just to make Chaoyan and his group happy."

Lin Xiaoxiao thought for a while, and said to A Xiu's father and A's parents: "My father and I will go to the city with Anan, you can wait for us here."

The mother's eyes became hot, and she kowtowed to Lin Xiaoxiao on her knees.

Ah Xiu's father only said, "Be careful."

Anan's eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

On the contrary, father-in-law said: "Shannv, this is dangerous."

Lin Xiaoxiao smiled lightly: "I'm not in danger, you two are more dangerous."

The three of them walked to the city gate.Lin Xiaoxiao paid the entrance fee for the three of them.

Taoqiu's entrance fee was three times more expensive than that of Huaguo's capital city.Probably because there are too few people coming in and out, and one can kill one at the gate of the city.

Taoqiu's walls and roads are well built.The city wall was comparable to the capital of the Zheng Kingdom, and the roads were the smoothest Lin Xiaoxiao had ever seen.

Lin Xiaoxiao likes this kind of flat road, and can step on the accelerator when driving.

It was not yet noon.

Anan didn't go back to the court, but took Lin Xiaoxiao and father-in-law to find an inn and designated a room.

This room is on the second floor.

After entering the house, Anan went straight to the window and opened it.

Anan pointed to the street below and said, "This is the only way Chaoyan must pass."

Anan is indeed a smart person, leading them straight to the point.

Lin Xiaoxiao sized Anan up, smiled and said, "Have you and Young Master Zhaoxu already planned to get rid of Chaoyan?"

Anan bit his finger, frowned and said, "Yes, as expected, nothing can be hidden from Shannv."

Chaoxu and Chaoyan have deep conflicts, which are known to everyone in the family.In order to avoid Zhao Yan, Zhao Xu chose to do business with the caravan.Anan and Zhaoxu have discussed many times, and Zhaoxu must get rid of Chaoyan if he wants to return to the Chao family.

In fact, not only Chaoxu wanted to kill Chaoyan, but Chaoyan also wanted to kill Chaoxu, but the two of them never found a good opportunity.

Anan looked at father-in-law Ah: "How is your bow skill? Are you sure you can shoot that person dead with one arrow?"

Father Ah firmly shook the bow in his hand: "My bow grip is stronger than a thousand catties, and it has shot through wolves, tigers and leopards."

"Your bow is not bad," Anan nodded, "Where are your arrows?"

Father Ah took out a wooden arrow with an iron head from the arrow basket.Wooden arrows with iron heads are very expensive, and can be said to be the best arrows for hunters.

Anan looked at it but shook his head: "Your arrow is not good, it can shoot through the fur of tigers and wolves, but it can't shoot through the soft silk armor on Chaoyan's body."

Soft silk armor is a cloth armor woven with silk by special techniques.Don't underestimate this kind of cloth armor, the silk thread can effectively generate resistance and disintegrate the piercing force.It is said that this craft has been lost in later generations.

Lin Xiaoxiao really wanted to say that she could directly shoot with a shotgun, but she hesitated and decided to let it go.

Ah's father must want to take revenge with his own hands.It was too late to teach him how to use a gun.

However, Lin Xiaoxiao still has something good here.

Lin Xiaoxiao flipped her hands and took out an arrow from the warehouse.

This arrow was given by Zhou Tianzi, and there are nine arrows in total.All metal arrows, the word "Yujing" engraved on the body of the arrow.Obviously it was specially made for Lin Xiaoxiao.

At first Lin Xiaoxiao didn't pay much attention to these nine arrows, but later when she happened to practice arrows, she found that the power of these arrows was quite terrifying.Lin Xiaoxiao had shot stones with this kind of arrow.

When Anan saw the arrow in Lin Xiaoxiao's hand, his eyes became bright.

"This is the thousand-forged diamond arrow, also known as the arrow in the stone. It is said that with a bow, it can shoot into boulders without stopping. Shannv even has a thousand-forged diamond arrow?"

Lin Xiaoxiao nodded lightly, turned her hands over and took out the bow again: "This is the matching bow. Do you think it is possible to shoot Zhao Yan with this bow and this arrow?"

"Yes, definitely." Anan nodded repeatedly.

Lin Xiaoxiao handed the bow and arrow to father-in-law: "Come on. This is a reward from the Emperor Zhou, and it finally came into use today. To die under this pair of bows and arrows, Chaoyan deserves to die."

However, Ah's father only took the arrow, but not the bow.

Father-in-law patted his own bow: "My own bow is the easiest to use. Just change the arrow, and I can get started after a while. If I change the bow too, I'm afraid I'll miss the mark."

Lin Xiaoxiao also knows how to shoot arrows, and feels that her father's concerns are justified.

So, while there was still some time until dusk, Father Ah practiced bow and arrow in the room.

In order not to spread the sound and not to damage the utensils in the room, Lin Xiaoxiao spread a carpet on the ground and took out the stake target she used.

As for whether people passing by this room will hear strange sounds, then I don't care.

A father-in-law practiced archery.

Lin Xiaoxiao and Anan didn't think much of it either.The two of them were discussing the retreat route after shooting arrows.

The purpose of their trip was not to kill someone, but to get out of Taoqiu City safely.

Moreover, safe evacuation seems to be more difficult than killing people.
