The daily life of a charming girl who made a fortune in ancient times

Chapter 53 Killing
This person is the reason why my uncle left the temple in such a hurry.

Shen Ge was full of thoughts, and his childish face was full of disappointment, "Aren't you sent by the Hu family to pick up your wife? There is only Mrs. Hu on the mountain, and there is no master. Can't you take my wife back first?"

nonsense!The man in gray continued to inquire about the news, "We only pick up the master. If you can help find my master, I can pick you up with me, and we can eat and drink spicy food with us."

I bother!

Shen Ge was baffled in his heart, but his brows and eyes that had just drooped brightened again, pretending to be pleasantly surprised, "Can you really take me away with you? Where are you going?"

The man in gray continued to coax, "Of course, but you have to help me find my master."

"Then we can make a deal! What is your master's name? There are several old men on the mountain, I don't know which one is." Shen Ge continued to talk with the man in gray, delaying time.

The man in gray just said, "My master's surname is Shen."

Shen Ge raised his hand to straighten the bamboo hat on his head, wondering why, "Shen is the surname of our Hao Lianzhai, and it's hard to find just one surname. Uncle, did you come by yourself? Is there anyone who came with you to look for Hu? Madam? Madam Hu said that her family will definitely send someone to pick her up, and promised me five taels of silver to help her guard the door and run errands."

The man in gray was getting impatient, "I'm alone, take me to the mountain to find my master, and I'll give you ten taels of silver."

Seeing that the boy didn't believe it, the man in gray took out two pieces of broken silver and threw them over without saying a word.

Shen Ge caught it and took a bite, took off the little bamboo hat on his head with eyes full of light, put it on with both hands, and said fawningly, "Don't let the rain get you sick, uncle, it's hard to walk in the woods, let's go up the mountain road."

The man in gray put on his bamboo hat and followed Shen Ge up the mountain.

Worried that Shen Shangzhi hadn't ambushed outside the temple gate, Shen Ge took the man in gray instead of the usual mountain path down the mountain from Guanyin Temple, but took another path.While walking, he chatted with the man in gray behind him, pretending to ask whether his family had a lot of money, whether he had a lot of fields, what he could do after he went back, how much he paid a month, and so on.

The man in gray responded briefly, when he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps and shouts in the woods, he stopped immediately and looked around with his knife.

Shen Ge also pretended to pull his neck to look a few times, and sighed, "I heard the sound of the drum and went down to see it. By the way, uncle, who played the drum at the foot of the mountain, and what are you doing playing the drum?"

"Perhaps he is from the village." The gray-clothed man replied impatiently, "Hurry up."

"Oh, good." Shen Ge quickened his pace a little, and when he could see the temple gate, Shen Ge looked at the bamboo forest not far outside the temple gate, and his eyes finally fell on the hands of the blind man Ma Er who had just walked out of the temple gate, and shouted, "Hey, so who, you two wait a minute!"

Ma Er's two subordinates heard Shen Ge shouting like this, and saw that the sharpshooter fool in the east courtyard was not there, so they stared and cursed back, "What are you calling grandpa, you brat!"

Shen Ge brought the man in gray forward and asked, "When you entered the temple the day before yesterday, where did you drive that tall old man with injuries in the backyard?"

After hearing Shen Ge's words, the man in gray narrowed his eyes and turned his attention to these two guys who were clearly not good people.

After entering the temple, they occupied the backyard and drove out all the people in the backyard.As for whether there are old men among those people, who would care!Ma Er's blind men pushed Shen Ge away and left, "I'm busy, get lost."

Shen Ge pretended to stagger and backed away, the man in gray raised his hand to stop Ma Er's subordinates, and asked gloomily, "Where's the man?"

Shocked by the aura of the man in gray, Ma Er's subordinates muttered, "If it's not in the main hall, it's in the West Courtyard. Find it yourself."

The man in gray's eyes lit up, and he looked up at the temple gate.

This is the moment!
Shen Ge, who had already moved behind the man in gray, stabbed the man in gray in the back with the dagger, but just as the dagger touched the opponent's clothes, the man in gray pushed him down under Jiang Ma'er's hands, and jumped away.

Shen Ge stepped on the belly of Ma Er's blind man, and chased him with the dagger, but his movement was not as fast as the man in gray. The man in gray turned around and used his knife to block the dagger, and kicked Shen Ge's chest.

Shen Ge rolled to the ground and just avoided the gray-clothed man's legs, but the knife in the other's hand was already chopped off at an incredible speed.

"Look at the hidden weapon!"

Shen Ge shouted, throwing a handful of dirt towards the face of the man in gray.The man in gray flew half a foot away and used a knife to resist, and his anger rose when he found out that he had been cheated.

"He has a lot of money on him. Brothers take him down and we will share them equally." Shen Ge shouted as he ran towards the bamboo forest outside the temple gate.

This damn brat must belong to Shen Shangzhi's gang!The man in gray held the knife and turned his eyes to stare at the gate of the temple. The people at the gate of the temple backed up a few steps in fright.Even Ma Er's blind men on the ground scrambled to avoid it.

This group of people is nothing to be afraid of, the man in gray smiled coldly.

"Look at the hidden weapon!"

Shen Ge who ran to the edge of the bamboo forest threw a handful of muddy stones at the man in gray.

The man in gray ran away, and when he realized that he had been fooled again, he was furious, "You are courting death!"

Seeing the man in gray chasing him with a knife, Shen Ge ran two steps into the woods yelling, "Look at the hidden weapon" and threw out a handful of muddy stones.

This time the man in gray didn't even hide, he just wanted to kill the brat quickly, and go to the temple to find Shen Shangzhi as soon as possible after getting back the money.

But after the muddy water stuck to his face, it made him itch unbearably!The man in gray muttered inwardly, and immediately dodged to hide behind a few bamboos, and wiped his face with his sleeves.

"puff!"

The gray-clothed man who had just raised his sleeves was startled, and slowly lowered his head, staring incredulously at the sharp edge of the Sen Leng sword protruding from his chest.

Shen Ge, who had jumped back, stepped forward and stabbed the man in gray with a dagger in the neck.

After the sword tip was withdrawn, the man in gray fell limply to the ground, blood flowing down the pierced sword hole in the bamboo.

Shen Ge quickly cleaned everything from the man in gray, pulled off the thick bamboo hairpin on his head, stood up and smiled straight at Shen Shang who came out of the dense bamboo.

Shen Shang, who held the sword, asked with a smile, "How do you know that the old man is hiding here?"

Shen Ge said truthfully, "I feel like you are here. Now the crisis is over. The big boat of the Lin family has arrived, shall we go by boat?"

"These people rarely act alone. His accomplices should have gone down the mountain to investigate the source of the drumming, and they will catch up soon."

Shen Shangzhi stared at the brave and scheming young man in front of him very seriously. He was witnessed fighting with the man in gray at the gate of the temple. He would definitely be considered by the man in gray's accomplices as one of his own, and he could only take him away with him. up,
"Use this knife and give me the darts. We will lie in ambush on the way down the mountain. We must kill the remaining evil one by one, otherwise there will be endless troubles."

"it is good!"

Shen Ge responded without fear. Seeing that Shen Shangzhi was having trouble walking, he hurriedly said, "Uncle hides, I'll go to ambush. There's the itching medicine, I'm [-]% sure."

Shen Shang shook his head, "Help me to go, hurry up. Otherwise, not only you and me, but Mrs. Lin's family will be implicated."

Shen Ge turned around and bent over, "I'll carry you on my back."

"Fathers and elders—"

On the steps of the main hall in the temple, Ma Wang, who was standing next to the blind man Ma Er, shouted loudly, "Fathers and elders, two big boats came down from the mountain, and there were food and drink on board. Our home was flooded, and our relatives were washed away by the water." We're gone, we've lost everything! Only by getting on the boat can we have a way of life, food and drink. After the official lady in the east yard comes out later, let's beg her to take us on the boat together, she will definitely not die , everyone, right?"

"Correct!"

"that is!"

"As for the two big ships, we can't take up too much space if we go all up, and we won't be able to eat much!"

"Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. She has to save us!"

"Get on the boat, I want to get on the boat!"

"Get on board!"

Dozens of people from the backyard, the main hall, and the west courtyard shouted together, wanting to seize this opportunity to escape.

　Good morning, fellow readers.
