Chapter 234 The Moment of the Nest (Two in One)

Seeing Mu Li's safe return, the children were all overjoyed, Wei Yan's eyes turned red from crying, and hugged Mu Li tightly.

Mu Li was strangled a little by her.

Can't laugh or cry: "Why are you still crying?"

"I didn't cry." Wei Yan's voice was muffled, buried in Mu Li's neck.

In this short day and night, she lived like a year, and every minute and every second seemed to be suffering.

If Mu Li made any mistakes, she would never forgive herself for the rest of her life.

If it was said that she didn't know who these men in black were after the night before, but after hearing Qin's words, she knew it clearly.

These men in black are here for themselves!

But Muli took the risk for himself alone...

Qin's eyes were also red, "It's good to be back, it's good to be back."

Meng Shi was confused.

"What's the matter?"

"What's the matter with everyone? I haven't seen you for a day, why are you crying like this?"

Mu Li pushed Wei Yan away with a smile, then looked down at the three little ones who were hugging her thigh and weeping silently, and with a smile all over their eyes lifted up the red-eyed Qin Shi.

Finally, she stopped at Mu Qing who frowned slightly.

"Aunt Meng, they haven't seen me for a day. If it's three autumns, they just miss me."

"no other meaning."

These words are not only for Meng Shi and Xue Dahai, but also for Mu Qing.

But Mu Qing is a smart person, and she can see their abnormality at a glance.

This kind of crying is not caused by missing at all, but rather like the backlog of crying after fear.

Chen Xiao looked at Chen Xiao who appeared with his sister early in the morning, and waved to him.

Chen Xiao walked over calmly, in fact, he had already guessed what he was going to ask, but his face was still blank.

Mu Qing glanced at Mu Li who was still coaxing Wei Yan, and asked him in a low voice, "Tell me the truth, did something bad happen to my sister who didn't come back last night?"

"Have you been taken captive by that group of thieves?"

Chen Xiao narrowed his eyes, "A thief?"

"Yes, thieves." Mu Qing said, "My parents said that a group of thieves were encountered at home the night before yesterday, and my sister is a person with a strong sense of justice. Usually, what she hates the most is this kind of stealing. She must find the gang The thief has gone to settle accounts."

Chen Xiao looked at Mu Li, and at this moment, Mu Li also looked over.

He promised Ah Li not to tell her family what happened yesterday...

"No, you guessed wrong."

Chen Xiao hesitated for a moment, and said.

Mu Qing stared at Chen Xiao for a moment, and from under his calm and handsome face, he said firmly: "It really has something to do with this matter."

"You suddenly skipped class yesterday afternoon because my sister was in danger, right?"

Chen Xiao glanced at Mu Qing with the end of his eyes, arrogantly like a peacock.

"No."

"I think so." Seeing Chen Xiao walking away, Mu Qing hurriedly glanced at Mu Li, and hurriedly followed, insisting on asking why in Chen Xiao's ear.

Chen Xiao was annoyed by his question.

He stopped in his tracks, tilted his head and asked him, "Have you finished washing your two-month Gong bucket?"

The last time Mu Qing skipped class, she was punished by Mrs. Jiang for two months.

When mentioning this matter, Mu Qing became angry, he gritted his teeth and said: "Today is Xiumu!"

"Don't change the subject!"

The more Chen Xiao didn't say anything, the more itchy he felt, and the more he wanted to know.

……

Seeing her daughter came back, Mrs. Lin happily held her hand, "I'm back."

Mu Li smiled and replied yes.

Lin looked around behind her, "Where's your friend?"

"Didn't she come with you?"

Mu Li was taken aback.

I almost forgot that Mr. Chen deliberately lied that she went to a friend's house to play last night in order to fear that her family would worry about her.

Mu Li smiled and said, "She's staying at home, she has work to do at home, so she didn't come with me."

Lin said: "Why haven't I heard you mention that you know friends from other villages?"

Mu Li put the tofu in his hand on the table, and lied without blushing, "I met him at a stall in the town."

Lin believed Mu Li's words.

"You meet her again some other day and invite her to come and play at home for a few days. You stayed at someone's home last night, and you caused trouble to their home to some extent. We have to go back."

Mu Li said yes.

But I was thinking in my heart, a friend who doesn't exist doesn't need to be invited.

When we got home, it was getting dark.

Old man Mu, Mo San and Gao Fugui were all busy weeding and fertilizing the fields.

Chen Xiao was still pestered by Mu Qing endlessly.

He takes a step, he follows.

Mu Qing believes that Chen Xiao knows the truth.

In the study, Chen Xiao put down a book of stories and looked at Mu Qing helplessly.

Mu Qing: "If you don't want to tell me, I'll keep relying on you not to leave."

Speaking of this, Mu Qing felt uncomfortable.

"Oh, my sister is too big to stay."

"How long have you two known each other? A Li has been keeping secrets from me since then."

Chen Xiao pretended not to hear his complaint.

Continue to look for books in front of the bookshelves.

Actually, Chen Xiao didn't want to involve innocent people in this conspiracy, so no matter how loud Mu Qing was in his ears, he still didn't tell him the truth.

……

When old man Mu came back from the field, he smelled a tempting fragrance before entering the house.

Mu Li was frying tofu balls in the stove.

Dahei was so hungry that he kept pulling at her trouser legs.

The three little ones couldn't get out of the kitchen.

And Wei Yan also joined in the fun.

The kitchen, which was not that big, became even more crowded now.

It was also more stuffy.

After Mu Li fried the last pot of tofu balls, he started preparing the dipping sauce again.

There are minced ginger, minced garlic, coriander, shallots, white sesame seeds, chili noodles, seasonings, and finally hot oil.

The dip is ready.

You can eat it with tofu balls later.

Mu Li asked Wei Yan to bring the snacks to the main room, and began to prepare other things by herself.

On the way back from Shilipo, Mu Li also bought chicken feet and mutton.

Later, she plans to make hot and sour chicken feet to eat. There are still some vermicelli left at home, so she will make mutton vermicelli soup.

Just eating mutton vermicelli soup doesn't make you hungry, and country people have to go to the fields in the afternoon to work, and they will be hungry after a while, so they have to cook some more staple food.

Scooped out an appropriate amount of flour, because there were so many people, Mu Li made more than 20 sesame cakes, pasted them on the pan and baked them. Each cake was round and thick, and it was cut from the middle, so you could put things in it.

Mu Li cut up the unused mutton, stir-fried it with onions and peppers, and put it in a sesame cake.

Because of the large number of pancakes and the limited amount of mutton, Muli made several flavors, including those with shredded potato fillings, those with stewed large intestine fillings, and those with buckwheat meat fillings.

Every flavor is mouth watering.

Can't stop.

After finishing these, Mu Li made two more cold dishes, one is cold amaranth and the other is cold cucumber, they are the standard dishes in summer.

After all the meals are ready, the cold chicken feet are almost marinated.

"Come here and serve the bowl." Mu Li shouted from the stove.

Chen Xiao came over first, holding a bowl of mutton vermicelli soup in one hand, followed by others.

At noon today, the two families also had dinner together.

As usual, Mu Li took out every dish and put it in a special container for Liu Renzhong before returning to eat.

The Shilipo Inn is full of people coming and going, and it seems that it has returned to the original noisy and lively scene, without the depression and tension of the early morning.

Cheng Yun was sitting in an inconspicuous corner of the lobby, with his big knife on the table, a pot of wine and a plate of peanuts in front of him, hidden in the crowd, like a traveler who came here to sharpen.

But his eyes never left the box that Lin Pingsheng walked into.

He watched Xiao Er go in with plates of dishes, back and forth many times.

The guests next to him changed from batch to batch, but Cheng Yun never saw Lin Pingsheng and the spies come out.

He frowned almost imperceptibly, and just when he decided to go and have a look, the door opened.

The only one who came out was the spies, and he was carrying a big|sack behind his back, and walked through the inn lobby openly.

Everyone was immersed in the joy of eating and chatted endlessly. No one noticed the sack on the spy's back, and no one suspected what was in the sack.

The spy left the inn with his front foot, and Cheng Yun entered the room with his back foot.

There was no sign of Lin Pingsheng in the room.

Xiao Er came to clear the table, Cheng Yun asked him: "Where are the people in this box?"

Xiaoer pointed in the direction of the door and said, "I'm full and went home."

Cheng Yun said: "I mean another person, did you see where he went?"

Xiao Er was confused, "Didn't you go back after eating?"

go back?

Cheng Yun sat in the lobby for a long time, but did not see Lin Pingsheng come out, only saw the spy walking out of the box slowly with a big |sack on his back.

He thought Lin Pingsheng was still in the box...

Suddenly!

His face changed.

not good!

Lin Pingsheng was in the sack!
Cheng Yun rushed out quickly.

The movement was so big that Xiao Er was almost knocked down, and Xiao Er staggered a few steps to stabilize his body.

When he reached the door, the spy was nowhere to be seen.

Cheng Yun thought anxiously.

Where would he take him?

"What are you doing standing here?"

Cheng Yun's body froze suddenly, and when he looked back, it was Zhong Shanghui, Zhao Chang'an, Zhao Fan, Gao Qing and Lu Chao were by his side.

Zhong Shanghui was looking at him suspiciously.

Cheng Yun was almost inseparable from Zhao Changan's side. He should be by Zhao Changan's side at this time, not blocking the door.

Cheng Yun's heart shuddered.

Thought Zhong Shanghui had doubts about him.

He subconsciously looked at Zhao Changan.

Zhao Chang'an smiled lightly and said: "Cheng Yun is homesick. His ancestral home is in Anling County. We came here from the capital this time and stayed here for a few months. Cheng Yun didn't have a chance to go back to his hometown. No, looking at the Qinghe in front of me, the feeling of nostalgia is even deeper."

Zhong Shanghui turned his head to look at Zhao Changan, "I think he has been by your side all these years, so he probably seldom goes home, right?"

Zhao Changan said melancholy: "Yeah, it's been more than ten years, I always wanted him to take some time to go home and have a look, but even if I go to his hometown now, I still can't spare a little time."

Speaking of this, Zhao Changan showed a guilty expression.

I don't know which sentence stimulated Zhong Shanghui, maybe it was Zhao Chang'an's words that reminded Zhong Shanghui of his lonely and helpless days of wandering around in order to gain fame in his early years.

For a long time, he was alone, like duckweed, without a sense of belonging.

Coupled with the fact that he is far away from his hometown, he misses his hometown even more.

"Since we've all returned to our hometown, let's go back and have a look when we have time." Zhong Shanghui looked down at Cheng Yun's head.

Cheng Yun quickly looked at Zhao Changan.

Zhao Chang'an said: "Since Mr. Zhong has spoken, you can go back to your hometown to have a look, but we have a task ahead of us, so we are going back to Beijing now. Don't be too greedy, go back early."

Zhong Shanghui said: "It doesn't matter if you are a few days late."

Zhao Changan smiled, "Thank you, Master Zhong."

Cheng Yun quickly thanked him.

Flattered.

Watching Zhong Shanghui and Zhao Changan get into the carriage, and seeing Zhao Fan get into another carriage, the group left the Shilipo Inn in a mighty manner.

Cheng Yun immediately walked in the opposite direction from them.

There was anxiety and obvious seriousness on the face.

……

"Woooo!"

There was a whimpering sound from the sack.

Lin Pingsheng's mouth was stuffed with a cloth, and he could not make a sound. His hands and feet were tied with ropes, and he kept struggling in the sack.

Damn!

He is still careless!

He only thought about whether the food had been poisoned, and only looked at whether the silver needles had turned black, but he forgot about the perspiration medicine.

Silver Needle Insertion|Put it into the Mongolian sweat medicine and it won't turn black at all!
He struggled up in the sack.

Lin Pingsheng could feel that someone was still moving behind his back.

Just when he began to wonder where the other party would take him, the people behind him suddenly stopped in their tracks.

Immediately afterwards, he felt his feet hit the ground, and his buttocks sat firmly on the ground.

Then, the mouth of the sack was untied.

The moment the light came in, he subconsciously closed his eyes.

When he got used to the light and looked up, he found that the spy was staring at him with a cold smile on his lips.

Lin Pingsheng suddenly realized that something was wrong. He looked around and saw a deserted forest.

He frowned, "What are you bringing me here for?"

Before he finished speaking, he heard a clear, scalp-numbing voice.

"His-"

"His-"

Looking at the source of the sound, there is a big round pit in front of you.

From his angle he couldn't see what was inside.

But the endless hissing sound in his ears made Lin Pingsheng understand what was inside at once.

snake!
The spy looked at the cracked expression on his face and laughed wildly in excitement.

"Aren't you afraid of death?" There was a bloodthirsty grin on the corner of his mouth, he dragged Lin Pingsheng to show him what was in the pit, and sneered, "What? Are those big words in front of Mr. Zhong all fart?"

The pit was full of snakes.

They spit snake letters one by one, scrambling to climb up.

Lin Pingsheng felt his scalp go numb.

madman!

The spy smiled ferociously and said, "Is it okay to throw you in later?"

"Look how excited they are to see you."

Lin Pingsheng was so angry that he wanted to scold his mother.

He wasn't afraid of death, but he didn't want such a miserable death either.

I don't even want to be bitten to death by them alive in the pile of poisonous snakes.

Damn!

This lunatic didn't seem to be enjoying himself enough, he directly lifted Lin Pingsheng and let him hang above the round pit.

Below is a group of innumerable poisonous snakes.

Lin Pingsheng admitted that he was cowardly.

He is most afraid of snakes.

This thing looks disgusting, and it makes people panic when they look at it.

Now that he was suddenly faced with so many poisonous snakes at once, he didn't faint directly, even if he gave the man a face.

Lin Pingsheng wanted to close his eyes so as not to look at them.

However, the group of poisonous snakes seemed to be starving, all of them raised their necks and tried to bite him.

Lin Pingsheng had to bend his legs to avoid the poisonous snake's attack.

The spy was taller than Lin Pingsheng, so he could easily pick him up. Seeing Lin Pingsheng's cowardly and timid appearance, he was very happy.

Suddenly!

Lin Pingsheng fell down.

"what--"

Screams rose from the ground.

The poisonous snakes were also frightened by the scream, and they all became more frantic and agitated, thinking that Lin Pingsheng was here to attack them.

Ever since, the poisonous snakes act first.

They jumped up vigorously, some of them almost bit the soles of Lin Pingsheng's feet, and some climbed up along the circumference of the round pit.

Those strips are densely packed.

Seeing Lin Pingsheng was heartbroken and terrified.

"Hahaha!"

The spy couldn't stop laughing wildly. He watched the poisonous snakes climb up, but he was unmoved, and the expression on his face became more and more ferocious.

Lin Pingsheng wished he could twist his neck and use it as a chamber pot right now.

This lunatic!

However, he dare not...

He was afraid that if he accidentally said something to anger the spies, if the spies let go, he would fall straight into the snake's hole.

His hands and feet were still tied...

There's absolutely no way to fight back.

Suddenly, there was a whoosh!
A dart popped out of nowhere.

The spy's expression changed, and he subconsciously dodged the opponent's attack.

Lin Pingsheng suddenly felt his body falling.

"what--"

The poisonous snakes in the pit became restless.

Lin Pingsheng understood their excitement from their eyes and their writhing bodies...
