It Starts With A Mountain

Chapter 135

Fallen City.

It was getting late, and there were not many pedestrians on the street. Cheng Dalei and Xu Shenji were walking on the street. Neither of them brought any weapons. Cheng Dalei's axe had already been brought back by Qin Man.

"Master, why do you have to take me?" Xu Shenji.

"Hey, it's not because the strategist is resourceful and clever. To be honest, I can't do it without you." Cheng Dalei gave Xu Shenji a white look: "Also, call me son, son Oubaou."

"Okay then, son, you go to your business, and I'll go to mine too."

"What are you busy with?"

"Go drink the flower wine." Xu Shenji said bluntly: "Go find your girl, and I'll drink my flower wine."

"Forget it, you can go." Cheng Dalei waved his hand: "Don't miss the business, we will meet in the restaurant tomorrow."

Xu Shenji ran quickly, looking at his speed, it really made Maxima feel ashamed.

Looking at his back, Cheng Dalei took out a money bag from his arms and said silently, "What kind of wine are you drinking without money?"

After separating from Xu Shenji, Cheng Dalei went to find Su Ying. It was almost dark by this time, and Su Ying was in her own house.

When Cheng Dalei arrived, before approaching the gate, he heard cries from inside. Walking at the gate and pushing it, the door was locked inside, and Cheng Dalei went directly over the wall.

After becoming a bandit, his talent for climbing walls seems to have improved a lot, and now Cheng Dalei is not used to it.

"who!"

Just as her feet landed, Xiaodie came out with a kitchen knife, her eyes glowing red at the moment.

"It turned out to be you. If you don't go through the door, why are you going over the wall?" Xiaodie said in a crying voice.

"Why are you crying?" Cheng Dalei asked strangely, "what about your lady?"

"Master is dead."

Su Ying's father was bedridden for a long time, and his health was not getting better day by day. Su Ying also mentioned this in her letter. It seems that he has not survived the winter after all.

"Has your lady gone home?"

"Miss was taken away by them."

"Catch!" Cheng Dalei was taken aback.

"Master passed away three days ago, and the young lady wanted to go to worship, but she was kicked out several times. They were interested in the business of Hudilao and said that unless the restaurant was returned, the young lady would not be allowed to die for the master. Today In the afternoon, the Su family called the young lady away and said it was to discuss this matter, but the young lady hasn't come back till now."

This matter is according to Cheng Dalei's meaning, if you don't send it, you won't go. Anyway, Su Sihai was not very good to Su Ying before his death. However, that was Su Ying's father after all, and the people of this era were ignorant, loyal and filial. So for Su Ying, this matter may really be a hurdle that cannot be overcome.

"Let's go. Let's go to Su's house to see." Cheng Dalei said.

"You go, but what if your identity is caught?" Xiaodie.

"Let's go, let's go."

The two walked quickly to Su Mansion, Cheng Dalei stood waiting up and down the steps, and Xiaodie knocked on the door.

After shouting a few times, someone picked up the lantern and opened the door: "What's the noise, what's the mourning!"

"Su Zhong, I'm here to find Miss." Xiaodie recognized the porter.

"Miss what, she left before it got dark, but I didn't see her."

"Impossible! I've been waiting for the lady, and she never came back."

"Then I don't know. Maybe she will find some wild man. Anyway, she is a woman of a bandit. This kind of thing is not strange at all."

"Su Zhong, keep your mouth clean!" Xiaodie turned pale with anger, pointed at Su Zhong's nose and said, "I don't believe it, Miss must be locked up by you, let me go in and look for it."

"Go away!" Su Zhong pushed Xiaodie away: "Things that are not disciplined, what kind of place do you think Su's family is? You can enter if you want."

Su Zhong suddenly opened the door a crack: "Even if I open the door, do you dare to come in today!"

Looking inside the black hole-like door, Xiaodie did not dare to speak.

Su Zhong sneered and slammed the door shut.

Xiaodie came to Cheng Dalei: "Miss is missing."

"I heard it just now."

"Miss must be locked up by them, she must still be in the Su family." Xiaodie shouted: "By the way, the Su family has a cellar, and sometimes some servants who make mistakes will be imprisoned in it. Miss must also be imprisoned. They're locked inside."

"Are you sure it was the Su family?"

"Miss has no enemies in the city. Who else could it be if they didn't do it! Don't you know how to jump over the wall? Let's jump over the wall and go in and find Miss to see what else they have to say."

"Come over what wall, let's go through the gate."

"But what if your identity disturbs the government?"

Cheng Dalei is a bandit after all, and the officials and bandits can't meet each other, but Cheng Dalei doesn't seem to consider this at the moment, and directly brings Xiaodie to the door.

...

The Su family was clothed with a mourning hall, and several concubines and daughters of Su Sihai were dressed in sackcloth and guarded the mourning in front of the hall.

But Su Sihai's wife, Li Ru, was not here. In the courtyard behind the mourning hall, Li Ru was leaning on the Luohan bed, wearing a filial piety, with a tired look on his face.

Li Datou sat on the chair with a dignified expression: "Little sister, let's detain Su Ying, does it really matter?"

"What does it matter? I'll detain her in the cellar for a few years. When the wind blows over, I will betroth her to a servant. If a woman is born, she will accept her fate."

"But isn't that too harsh?"

"Ruthless!" Li Ru suddenly gritted his teeth: "I followed Su Sihai when I was eighteen, but when this old bastard died, he left all his family property to Su Ying, without giving me a cent, I am in his eyes. , will always be a concubine, a concubine, a slave! If it wasn't for this old bastard being so heartless, why would I kill them all?"

A cruel look appeared on that gentle face, she glanced at Li Datou and shook her head gently.

"Brother, we all came from hardships. My parents sold me at the age of thirteen. How can I tell you about the hardships I've endured. We should have understood by now that if you don't fight for things in this world, you can't Someone will give it to you."

"But Su Ying has something to do with the bandits after all. If they get revenge, we..."

"It's just a rumor." Li Ru waved his hand indifferently: "Even if Su Ying has been with the bandit, I'm afraid she's already tired of playing. Otherwise, she would have been taken back to the cottage long ago. Is there still a bandit who speaks of gentleness, respect, thrift, humility, huh, huh? ."

"Okay, you go down first, remember to help me pay attention these days, and recruit a few good Jianghu people. Some things, it is inconvenient for me to do it alone as a woman."

"I'm already busy with this matter, and I probably already have some clues."

Li Datou said, and got up to leave. At this moment, a loud shout was heard outside, and there was a commotion.

"Bandits are coming in!"

"Bandits are coming in!"

This voice was passed on and passed, from the front yard to the backyard, all the way into the ears of Li Ru and Li Datou.
