"How about we run away?" Nan Jiang was very scared.
If we say that in the past, Jin Shu beat the middle-aged beggar to a cripple, and nothing serious happened afterwards, and no government investigated, it was because no one cared about the life or death of that beggar.
Just like them.
But today, the person Xiaoyu stabbed was Mr. Liu. His sister married an official and worked in the government office. If he were dead, his brother-in-law would definitely not let Xiaoyu go, and probably would not let them go either.
Jin Shu was silent, with a dark look in his eyes.
He also knew that he could not compete with someone like Mr. Liu. Mr. Liu wanted to crush him to death, just like crushing an ant.
Peng Peng stroked his chin in thought, "I think Nan Jiang's idea is feasible. We are beggars wherever we go anyway."
"If we blend in with the crowd, we probably won't be noticed."
"Let's just run away."
Xiaofeng hugged Qingqing and they both nodded.
Qingqing was actually very anxious.
She had a feeling that someone from the government office was already rushing towards the ruined temple. It would probably take less than a quarter of an hour to reach the ruined temple.
She wanted to warn him, but she couldn't speak.
She babbled anxiously for a long time, but Xiaofeng just patted her butt.
"Are you hungry, An An? But your brother and sister are discussing something now. You have to wait a moment."
Clear the black line and give up helplessly.
I thought, how miserable it is to not be able to speak.
A few people were still discussing the escape route when they suddenly heard a lot of footsteps coming from not far away.
It sounded very urgent, as if he was running over.
They were instantly alert and pricked up their ears to listen. When those people came closer, they heard someone say something.
"Those beggars are in that dilapidated temple..."
"That kid must be there too."
Several people were stunned, and then they all panicked.
"What should I do? You came here so soon. Are you here to arrest me?" Xiaoyu sobbed, and Jinshu covered his mouth with his hand. He also looked at the others.
"Don't say anything..."
Everyone else quickly covered their mouths.
Jin Shu gritted his teeth and quietly looked forward from the rotten corner of the wall behind the dilapidated temple.
It was discovered that the people who came were all wearing officers' and soldiers' uniforms.
He gritted his teeth and said, "No, we have to run quickly. They are really coming."
Nanjiang's legs went weak. "Where should I run?"
They were just ordinary beggars. They had never thought that something so big would happen. Now they were all panicking. They were very uncertain.
The dilapidated temple is just outside Linjiang City, with the official road in front and mountains stretching for miles behind.
Jin Shu gritted his teeth, looked at the official road, and then looked at the mountains behind him.
Qingqing shouted in her heart.
Mountains, mountains, they must choose mountains. Only by entering the mountains can they escape this disaster.
"Run to the mountains, run now." Jin Shu gave the final order, and he took Qingqing from Xiaofeng's arms, took Xiaofeng's hand, and ran to the mountains.
Xiaoyu, Pengpeng and Nanjiang all had wind-fire wheels under their feet and followed behind him.
Soon they disappeared into the woods.
Liu Yuanwai's servant and the leader of the soldiers, known as Zhang Tou, led a dozen soldiers to the ruined temple and rushed in.
The officers and soldiers directly pulled the beggars off the ground and asked the servants to identify them one by one.
There are about a dozen people in the dilapidated temple now, including men, women and old people, but no young people.
The servant frowned and shook his head.
“No one.”
Zhangtou frowned and kicked an old beggar over and asked.
"Where are the children?"
The old beggar held his stomach in pain, collapsed on the ground, and was unable to speak for a long time.
Zhang Tou narrowed his eyes and looked at the other beggar. Just as he was about to kick him, the man quickly held his head and said.
"Those kids just went to the back of the ruined temple."
Zhang gave a wink to his soldiers, and several of them rushed out of the door and went around to the back of the ruined temple. Where was the person?
They came back to report.
"There was no one behind, but there were footprints of several children. It seemed like there were four or five people."
A beggar interrupted.
"There are six of them, and there is a three-year-old baby in their arms." After saying this, he looked at Zhangtou with a flattering look on his face. Waiting for Zhangtou to give him a reward?
Zhangtou spat at him directly and turned to look at the servant.
The servant gritted his teeth and said, "They must have run to the mountains, Zhang Tou, you must chase them!"
"Look at our master, his life or death is uncertain now. It's all caused by that little beggar. You must stand up for our master!"
Zhangtou snorted in his heart. He couldn't understand how a little beggar could stick a chopstick from Mr. Liu's vitals straight into his stomach.
It was impossible not to think of something wrong. But he couldn't say this. After all, Mr. Liu's sister was the wife of his boss.
Zhangtou nodded and said to his men, "Go after him and bring that little beggar back to me."
The servant interjected, "Catch all those little beggars. They are in the same group. They are all bad guys."
"Don't let any of them go."
The officers and soldiers looked at Zhang Tou, who nodded helplessly.
"Go!"
All officers and soldiers rushed towards the back mountain.
…
Qiu Mobai sat in the carriage with his eyes closed and a solemn expression. The light coming through the window flickered on his face, and the cold air from his body kept emitting out without any charge.
The little boy and Changying outside didn't dare to make a sound.
It has been more than three months since the young lady disappeared. There is no news at all. No one knows whether she is dead or alive.
The Anguo family was so anxious because of the loss of the young lady that they were all searching day and night for her.
