There is a white bone spirit in the village

Chapter 44

When it was dark, Lin Jiao finally went back to the foot shop dejectedly, ten thousand mud horses whizzed by in her heart...

Just a moment ago, she gave Zhaodi twenty coppers and told her to buy candied haws from Heizi who was standing across from her foot shop.Candied gourds are wrapped in sugar, so they are not cheap, and they cost five cents a bunch.Zhaodi will take care of the rest, but she must follow Heizi's orders to hold Heizi, a fight would be best.Zhao Di is extremely powerful, she has candied haws to eat and makes money, so she naturally obeys her advice, buys a bunch of candied haws for five bucks and squats by the side.Although Heizi was ordered to guard Lin Jiao, after all he was just an aggressive young man, seeing this ugly girl causing trouble, he started arguing, Zhaodi didn't say anything, and punched him in the face with an old punch, which made his eyes water Jin Xing, how could he be at a disadvantage, and the two began to scuffle.

Taking advantage of the chaos, Lin Jiao quickly slipped out of the alley at the back door, picked up the trail to go to the county government office, rushed to the vicinity and looked around for a while, and finally saw a familiar government servant coming out, she hurried forward to inquire, but was told Yang Jingxuan hasn't returned yet, not only is he not here, even Mr. Li is not here.Hurry up and ask him to send a message, tell him to come to the foot shop to find him as soon as he sees Yang Jingxuan, there is something urgent.The yamen servant agreed, Lin Jiao had no choice but to go back first, thinking that there were still two days left, she only hoped that he could hurry back.

When Lin Jiao arrived at the foot shop, Zhaodi, who had won a big victory, came to claim credit triumphantly, saying that the black boy was defeated by her and finally retreated. In the front hall, I went to the backyard to see Nengwu, asked a few questions about his illness and saw that he had taken medicine, and then went back to his room to listen to the movement at the back door.When it was more than Haishi, I suddenly heard a slight noise and ran to open the door, only to find that it was Tiger King who likes to wander in the dark alley at the back door, just stinging the door with his claws, so I was surprised and excited in vain .Chased Tiger King away, and waited for a while, knowing that Yang Jingxuan might not be able to wait for today, sighed dispiritedly, sat in front of the mirror, prepared to remove makeup, wash up and go to sleep—after all, even if the sky is going to collapse tomorrow, tonight It is also going to continue.

Lin Jiao pulled out a hairpin on her head, and suddenly heard Zhaodi's voice from the small door in the partition wall in front: "Sister Jiao, someone is looking for you outside."

Lin Jiao's heart skipped a beat, she hurriedly inserted the hairpin back, hurried out and opened the small door and asked, "Who is it?"

Zhao Di said: "She is a sister-in-law similar to Wang's sister-in-law and the others, with a face."

Lin Jiao thought it was Yang Jingxuan, but she didn't expect it to be.If it wasn't for Yang Jingxuan, who else would come looking for him at this time?Could it be Yang Jingxuan, but he felt that it was difficult for him to find the front door in the middle of the night. As for the back door, because of the accident that happened last time when he was teaching himself to practice calligraphy, he still has a pimple in his heart, and he has a phobia of the back door, so he just asked a woman. Come call yourself out?

The more Lin Jiao thought about it, the more she felt it made sense.Hurry to the front hall.At this time, the guests had all gone to rest, and only Niu Er was on duty for the night.In the slightly empty yard, there was a woman dressed in ordinary clothes who was unfamiliar, bowed slightly to her and said: "The shopkeeper, a master outside told me to ask the shopkeeper to go out, saying that I have something to do."

Lin Jiao had already concluded that it was Yang Jingxuan, suppressed her joy, and hurried out, but she couldn't see anyone around.The woman rushed up and pointed at the entrance of the street with a smile, "Master is right there. You will see him after a few steps."

Lin Jiao followed the woman and saw a carriage parked at the corner, she suddenly felt something was wrong, as soon as she stopped, she heard the woman facing the carriageway: "Master, the shopkeeper is here!" As soon as she said that, she saw the carriage Later, a person came out, borrowed the lamp shadow to see, it turned out to be He Dadao!

Lin Jiao was shocked, and just as she was about to turn around subconsciously, He Dadao had already stepped over to Lin Jiao's side in two steps, and immediately carried her into the carriage like a chick, and when the door closed, he bent down to follow her. After getting up, the carriage immediately ran.

Lin Jiaowan never expected that He Dadao would do this.There was a wind lamp hanging in the corner of the carriage, and the light inside was good, so he turned his head and looked at him angrily and said, "Master He, that's not what we agreed to during the day! Three days haven't come yet, and my brother-in-law hasn't settled down yet." ,what do you mean?"

He Dadao's eyes were shining, he glanced at Lin Jiao, and said hastily: "I just heard the news that the two points below me were just smashed by someone surnamed Yang, and the person fell into his hands. You are going to touch me. The night is long and dreamy, it is better to be cautious. I have changed my mind. Since I have decided to leave, you don’t have to wait until three days later, you should follow me now.”

Lin Jiao said angrily: "My uncle doesn't know yet! Let me go back quickly!" After speaking, she stood up staggeringly, bent down to open the door of the compartment, just slapped it twice, her wrist hurt, and she was already He Dadao held it, and when he pulled it, he couldn't stand upright, and when he was about to fall, he had already brought him back to his seat.

"You should just sit down and follow me!" He Dadao let go of her wrist, patted the seat next to her, and said with a snort, "You said during the day that you would like to follow me, but you have to settle down with your uncle first." .I don’t care if you are true or not. Anyway, since I like you, you must be my woman. It’s better to follow me honestly. Where is your uncle, I will send someone to ask later. If he is willing to follow you , just pick him up, if he doesn't want to, I'll give him a sum of money to settle it down, don't worry!"

Lin Jiao was startled and angry when he accidentally hijacked her into the carriage.Hearing what he said now, he gradually calmed down.Judging by He Dadao's appearance, he is also a soft eater. If I quarrel with him now, not only will it be useless, but if I annoy him, maybe it will cause disaster, and I will be the one who suffers.After all, he used to be in that line of work, no matter how loyal he is, it is definitely not a good thing.Since he was going to marry him and she had already fallen into his hands, he might as well give in first. Seeing that he was obedient, he might relax his vigilance, and it is not impossible to find an opportunity to escape in the future.

After thinking about it, Lin Jiao gradually calmed down the anger on her face, knowing that he was staring at her, she closed her eyes for a moment, then suddenly opened her eyes and looked at him, smiling slightly.

She was born beautiful, so He Dadao fell in love with her. Apart from what he said during the day, her beauty was also a major reason.Think about it, she is beautiful, fresh, and courageous, how could he not want to keep such a woman as his own?Seeing her suddenly open her eyes and smile at him, her lacquered eyes were a little brighter than the lamp hanging in the carriage, her heart shook slightly, her voice softened a lot, and she said, "Have you figured it out? "

Lin Jiao sighed softly, and complained slightly: "Master, look at what you said just now, what I said during the day is naturally true. I was just scared by you just now, and I was thrown into the carriage by someone in the dark like this, which one? Aren’t women afraid? I didn’t even yell for help, so you still blame me!”

He Dadao saw that her tone was a little coquettish, and immediately felt comfortable all over, and said with a smile: "Yes, it's my fault. I'm used to being rude, and I scared you, sister. I won't do it in the future!"

Lin Jiao pursed her lips and smiled, stroked her messy temples, and suddenly said seriously: "Master, since you keep saying that you want to marry me, I believe you. Although I am a widow, I am not just a widow. Otherwise, I wouldn't bet with Hu Shuner that day. Since you want to marry me, you have to treat me like a wife. I will never agree to any indecent behavior before the wedding ceremony. For example. Women's reputation is the most important thing. If you lose your reputation, what's the point of living? If you don't obey me, I'd rather kill myself than suffer such humiliation!"

He Dadao was startled.According to his thinking, she was his own anyway.It will take at least a month to go to Yuanzhou on this way, so it is natural that a good thing will happen first on the way, and it will be just to make up a worship hall when we get there.Seeing her inviolable face now, although it's a pity, I didn't dare to push her into a hurry, so I could only say: "Okay! Sister, I respect you even more if you are like this. Don't worry, you won't be in Yuanzhou after the church visit." , I will never move a finger of yours!"

Lin Jiao let out a sigh of relief, nodded at him and smiled, "I knew that you valued your loyalty and etiquette, big brother, you are right. If you ask me to be with such a man, I would be willing to eat chaff and vegetables for the rest of my life."

Seeing that she finally changed her name and called her elder brother back, He Dadao praised her words, and was happy in her heart, trying to slow down her voice and said, "Okay. When you get there, take a rest first, and we will leave the city tomorrow morning."

The carriage finally stopped at a place that Lin Jiao had never seen before, and it stopped in the middle of the night.The woman who called her at first seemed to be He Dadao who had been hired to serve her.Early the next morning, Lin Jiao was followed by the woman into the carriage and left the city, heading east.

Lin Jiao was sitting in a very ordinary green felt carriage, which could be seen everywhere, so she couldn't stop complaining about the bumpy carriage and that she didn't change her clothes.He Dadao found out, so he bought a luxurious carriage with a green roof and silk in the afternoon, and there were cushions inside. It looked like he got it from a wealthy family, and he also brought soft silk for Lin Jiao. New clothes and rouge jewelry.Lin Jiao then fell silent, thanked He Dadao with a smile, and put on her clothes and jewelry.He Dadao and his entourage still rode horses. It looked like a wealthy businessman traveling with a guard to protect his family, but he was in a hurry and hurried all the way.

Lin Jiao nestled in the carriage during the day and stayed at the inn at night, knowing that the more days passed, the farther away she would be from Qinghe.Except for eating at noon during the day, the rest of the time is spent in the car, so naturally there is little chance of escaping.At night, although He Dadao kept the previous agreement and did not force the two to share the same room, he only arranged for Lin Jiao to be next to him, and the woman who served Lin Jiao would make a bed in front of her bed, and she would open her eyes whenever Lin Jiao moved. , There are still people on duty outside in shifts, and there is no chance to escape.In this way, four days passed in a flash, and it was said that after tomorrow, they would leave the boundary of the state capital.Everyone in the group looked relaxed, but Lin Jiao's heart was racing even more, but she didn't dare to show it on her face.When she was depressed, the only thing she could do was to think about what Bodhisattva Yang was doing now, whether he knew the news of his disappearance, and whether he had received the distress signal she had so hard to send the day before yesterday.

In fact, she couldn't stop complaining about the bumpy carriage on the first day, and the purpose was to replace this ordinary carriage that couldn't be recognized when it fell into the pile.After fulfilling my wish, when I was staying at the hotel that night, while I was taking a bath, the woman avoided being in the room and tore off the material of her petticoat. She hid the word Jiao, and went to the toilet on the pretext of abdominal pain at noon the next day, because there was an exit from the side pit, so the serving woman did not follow up, just waited outside.Lin Jiao endured the stench and waited until a woman who went to the toilet came in. She happened to be a handyman in this shop. She hurriedly took off a newly worn gold bracelet and handed it over, telling her in a low voice to deliver the cloth to the toilet as soon as possible. The county government didn't dare to say anything to Yang Jingxuan.This place is still in Qinghe territory, so the miscellaneous woman also knows his name.Seeing that there was a gold bracelet as a reward, she agreed immediately, stuffed the cloth into her chest and went out. Lin Jiao also came out after her, which did not arouse the woman's suspicion.

Lin Jiao speculated that as long as Yang Jingxuan returned to the county government, he would definitely know the news of his disappearance.The only thing she wanted now was that Shou Nuo, the handyman woman, really sent the cloth to him and left him a clue.Otherwise, if he was really taken to Yuanzhou to worship forcibly, he would really be the wife of the underworld boss.

One night passed, and the next morning, before the sky was clear, the group of people had to get up early and start their journey.Seeing Lin Jiao's tired face and listlessness when he came out, He Dadao comforted him, "Your work is hard. Today, when we leave the state capital, some noble people will come to meet us. With their badges protecting us all the way, we can slow down On our way."

Lin Jiao made a gesture of joy, got into the carriage and continued on the road.I have been sitting in the car non-stop for several days. Although there is a cushion under my body, I was bumped enough. In addition, I couldn’t sleep well last night. I leaned against the corner of the car and closed my eyes and wanted to doze off. Only when I have recovered my energy can I look at the machine and try again .Even if Yang Jingxuan can't be the bodhisattva who saves her, she is always ready to save herself. Opportunities are created by people. Anyway, she is a Xiaoqiang who can't be beaten to death.

Lin Jiao's mood gradually calmed down, her eyes were closed and she was falling asleep, when suddenly there seemed to be a sound of galloping horseshoes approaching, passing by the side of the carriage she was sitting in, and the carriage below her also slammed Pause, Ma Ming 哕哕.Tragedy, she threw herself onto the mat and rolled twice due to her inertia, only to stop when she was blocked by the closed carriage door, her forehead hit the door heavily, grinning in pain.The anger accumulated in the past few days suddenly exploded, and he was about to yell, when he heard the sound of a sword being unsheathed nervously in his ears, and he heard He Dadao shouting: "Yang Jingxuan, I was under the control of you in the past, and now I leave, you still don't let me go!" Ever? You fucking chased here to kill them all? Don't force people too much!"

Lin Jiao felt as if she had been slapped with chicken blood in an instant, her forehead no longer hurt, she got up from the mat, and carefully lay down on the crack of the door to look, her heart was bursting with joy.

Yang Jingxuan was sitting upright on the horse, holding the reins and crossing the horse in the middle of the official road more than a dozen steps away, looking coldly at the angry He Dadao, with a solemn profile, and his eyes were as sharp as a knife's edge.
