Chapter 135 The Old Woman Gnawing Bones
I climbed to the back of the hill and looked down through the gaps in the branches. I saw several desert soldiers lighting a bonfire.
They sat around the campfire, chatting and eating food.
Looking at the roasted food on the branches, it was probably either wild pheasants or some strange birds. The aroma of meat wafted over, and Ding Gui swallowed his saliva: "These bastards are eating pretty well."
"Look at them, a total of six people, and there are no other campfires around. Could they be stragglers?" Ding Xiaodie analyzed in a low voice.
The last time we went to Yangliu Town, it was also scattered soldiers. It is said that the wars in recent years have caused Qi and Yan to retreat step by step, and the desert soldiers are extremely rampant. Later, a fierce general, General Minyuan, finally appeared in Qi and Yan of the Five Continents. He was the powerful general of national prestige mentioned by Lu Xingluo on the night of the empty city plan.
After General Minyuan came on the scene, he defeated the desert soldiers several times in a row, and thus these stragglers emerged in the chaos.
Zhang Xiu said nervously, "Even though there are only six stragglers, we can't handle them! Oh, it's over. Will the old woman fall into their hands?"
The people of the desert are completely inhumane. If Wang Dafeng encounters them and he is confused and can't explain anything clearly, he will definitely die.
Ding Gui and Ding Xiaodie didn't say anything, but their mood instantly dropped.
Because the possibility is indeed very high.
At this moment, Zhang Xiu suddenly said: "Look..."
She opened her mouth in surprise. Ding Xiaodie and Ding Gui, father and daughter, also saw it and were frightened.
What I said is true. Why does God like to play jokes at times like this?
After a brief rustling of leaves and branches, a figure with struggling steps emerged from the woods. And it was none other than Wang Dafeng!
I’m dizzy. Why did the old woman suddenly appear at this time?
And it was so dangerous, he walked straight towards those desert soldiers. The most amazing thing was that those desert soldiers didn't seem to care about the movement behind them, they still chatted as they should and ate as they should.
Ding Xiaodie hurriedly grabbed her father, who was about to rush out in excitement: "Wait, they seem to know each other."
“…”
How is this possible?
Ding Gui had no choice but to lie back on the ground and observe calmly.
That's right. I saw an old woman coming out of the woods holding a bunch of branches in her arms. When she got closer, she squatted in front of the fire and added firewood.
The desert soldiers seemed to be laughing at her. After joking with each other for a while, they threw a bone in front of the old woman, pointed at her, and then chattered in bird language.
The old woman also replied with a gibberish, then picked up the bone and held it in her mouth.
"Hahaha!"
The desert soldiers immediately burst into laughter and said something while laughing. The white-haired old woman immediately imitated a dog's barking: Woof woof woof!
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Those beasts laughed even louder!
The three members of the Ding family hated these beasts with gnashing teeth.
At this moment, Ding Xiaodie and her family saw a piece of rag on the old woman's back. There was a bulging thing in the rag. Upon closer inspection, they found that it was moving.
Could it be Hua Ni?
Even in this dangerous situation, she still protected Hua Ni well, found a piece of cloth and carried it on her back, just like a mother carrying her child when she was a child.
In an instant, the three members of the Ding family had tears in their eyes. The old woman looked so pitiful!
Ding Xiaodie wiped her tears with the back of her hand: "Okay, Dad, Mom, we have to rescue her. There are not many soldiers in the desert now. This is a perfect opportunity."
"Do you have any idea?" Ding Gui also wiped his eyes fiercely. Seeing the old woman like that, he felt sorry for his mother and wanted to fight those beasts to the death.
At this time, Wang Dafeng was still burning firewood for them while holding a bone in his mouth by the campfire, with a flattering smile on his face that looked like a dead tree.
Ding Xiaodie glanced at them, then looked away. "I'm going to go out and get closer to them, then find a chance to take them out one by one. A head-on fight is impossible, so I can only outsmart them."
"no."
Upon hearing that their daughter was going to take the risk, Ding Gui and Zhang Xiu both refused.
"Don't worry. Think about it, I'm a child. When they see me, they will definitely let down their guard. I'll put the knockout drug in their wine when I get the chance."
These medicines were prepared by Uncle Jiu at the request of Mr. Lu, so that they could have them in case of emergency.
But this is too dangerous, what if...
Zhang Xiu would definitely not agree. You could say she was selfish or whatever, but she would not let her daughter exchange her life for the old woman's.
But just as the family of three was still discussing how to take the first step, three black figures suddenly emerged from the woods.
They were covered in black gauze, and their movements and swordsmanship were very impressive. They took care of those small shrimps in the desert in just a few seconds.
He turned and left without saying a word.
Everything happened so fast, so fast that Ding Xiaodie's parents had not yet come to their senses, because in an instant the chirping of birds suddenly stopped.
Only the crackling sound of the bonfire could be heard, and the old woman was kneeling there blankly, holding a bone in her mouth.
The next second, the three members of the Ding family finally realized that there was a master helping them in secret!
Unexpectedly, the plot in the TV series happened right in front of her. Without giving it much thought, Ding Xiaodie rushed out with her parents.
He ran down a small slope, rushed to Wang Dafeng as fast as he could, and hugged the dazed old woman tightly in his arms.
The confused old woman was startled and uttered a bird language: "Wa La Wu!"
Ding Xiaodie held her arms and said, "Grandma, please look at me. I am Xiaodie."
"Yes, mother, do you still remember us?"
"Mother, you've suffered so much, wuwu!" Ding Gui choked and sobbed. Zhang Xiu quickly reached out and took the bone out of the old woman's mouth, gritting his teeth and cursing, "You beasts!"
The old woman's eyes were confused, her memory still shrouded in chaos. But eventually, her gaze shifted from the faces of Ding Gui and his wife to Ding Xiaodie's small face. After looking at her again and again, she finally asked, "Xiaodie? Are you Xiaodie?"
"Yes, yes, it's me, grandma. I'm Xiaodie."
"Who are they?" The old woman pointed at Ding Gui and Zhang Xiu.
It's over. It seems that this situation is even worse than before she left. She can no longer remember Ding Gui and Zhang Xiu at all.
This made Ding Gui very sad, because his body was born by an old woman!
"Let's go back to town first." Ding Xiaodie knew that she couldn't explain it to her clearly in a short time. The most important thing now was to go back to town quickly so that she would be safe.
Ding Gui and Zhang Xiu came to their senses and immediately supported the old woman on the left and right, and hurriedly retreated back to the forest.
"You... who are you? Where are you taking me?" The old woman was trembling with fear. Who were these two people and why were they pulling her?
"Don't be afraid, grandma. They're good people." Ding Xiaodie had no choice but to coax her softly: "If you scream again, those bad guys will come and catch you. Do you understand?"
The old woman shrank her neck in fear and nodded reluctantly.
But along the way, every few steps, she would ask: "Who are you?"
The three members of the Ding family: "..."
The three members of the Lu family: "..."
