"Yes! That girl has to nod first!"
The next day, after Lin Wanwan heard what they had to say, she evaded the question by saying that they had just settled down and didn't want to get married yet. They didn't say anything else and respected her opinion very much.
After spending a few days together, Lin Wanwan had almost figured out the details of these people. They were all pitiful people, except for Xu Laosan.
I heard that he had been a soldier before, and had made military achievements. He was a centurion and led hundreds of soldiers. Later, he somehow got mad and gave him wrong information. All his troops were wiped out, and he was the only one who survived. After that, he returned to his hometown and did nothing all day. After his parents passed away, he didn't care about them anymore. He sold all the things in the house and ended up on the street as a beggar.
Unexpectedly, after becoming a beggar, he became more open-minded and less averse to life. If he saw someone being bullied, he would go up to help. If he saw someone in trouble, he would bring him back to the dilapidated temple and shelter him for a few days. Gradually, people's views of him changed and they would ask him for help when they had problems. He did not want money, but instead gave him food. This dilapidated temple became the beggars' base camp.
He picked up a few little carrots on the road. He said they were dying and covered in wounds. He had a hard time saving them. Daya also had a stutter due to the fever.
Lin Wanwan thought that after this matter was over, she could ask them if they wanted to go back to Linjia Village with her and settle down there.
During the time she stayed with them, she was extremely happy and carefree. She didn't have to worry about what would happen tomorrow. However, she didn't expect that the day of separation from them would come so soon.
One day, Lin Wanwan was strolling on the street and always felt that there were several people staring at her from behind. She immediately became alert and walked quickly into an empty alley, trying to find a deserted place to hide in.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the alley, he was knocked unconscious to the ground.
When she woke up again, she was tied up and thrown on the ground, with a rag stuffed in her mouth. She wanted to enter the space when no one was around, but suddenly she heard a familiar voice...
"Where is she? Where is she?"
"Oh my, don't worry, Your Excellency! He is fine in the house!"
"Let me take a look at the person first!"
"Sir, don't worry. The bounty on this girl is more than 300,000 taels. What do you think? If we hand her over..."
"I think you all don't want to live anymore! Get out of the way!"
The door was suddenly pushed open forcefully. Lin Wanwan screamed with tears in her eyes.
“Riii ...
When Chen Li saw the person lying on the ground, his nose suddenly felt sore. He hurried over to help the person up, took the rag out of his mouth, and started to untie the rope.
"Wow, Brother Li, I'm scared to death..."
"Wanwan, it's okay, it's okay, don't be afraid, I'm here, don't be afraid, don't be afraid..."
Lin Wanwan lay in his arms and cried breathlessly, her face was covered with tears, and the rest was rubbed on Shen Li's clothes.
"Brother Li, they are the ones who want to kill me! Wuuuu! They have been chasing me all the way! You need to catch them all!"
"Hey, little girl, you can't just say that! I, Xing Dalong, have long stopped killing people and robbing people!"
Lin Wanwan stopped crying, sniffed, and looked at them.
"Brother Li, who are they?"
"This is the Black Dragon Village in Dingfeng County. I asked them to help find your whereabouts."
"Ah? Not those men in black? Oh, I was so scared! I thought I was caught again!"
Shen Li helped her up and looked at Xing Dalong, "Boss Xing, can you find a place for my sister to wash up first?"
"Second brother, ask your wife to take her to wash and change into clean clothes! Tsk tsk, too dirty..."
Lin Wanwan glared at him fiercely when she passed by him. You are the dirty one! Your whole family is dirty! But she smelled herself and it seemed that everything was indeed rotten...
After she left, Xing Dalong continued, "Okay, sir, you've seen the person, it's time to talk about the terms, right?"
Chen Li took out a stack of banknotes from his pocket and placed them on the table.
"Here is five thousand taels of silver. Let her stay with you for a while. When we take her away, I will give you another five thousand taels. Of course, I will ensure that your Black Dragon Village is safe and sound."
"Oh, the Imperial Envoy is so arrogant. You are a weakling, and you can't even protect yourself. How can you care about us?"
"Heh..." Shen Li smiled, but his eyes became colder and colder, "Master Xing, why don't you give it a try? Don't you want to do this deal?"
"Hahahaha! Do it! Why not? It's a sure win for us anyway!"
Chen Li bowed his hands in thanks, "Then I'll have to trouble you during this period of time, I hope you will treat her well!"
He said the words "treat her well" with great emphasis, which made people feel frightened.
"Of course! Don't worry, sir! Our village is the most hospitable and we will definitely take good care of your sister!"
Lin Wanwan felt relaxed after washing up, but she couldn't help blushing when she remembered that she had to change the water twice to clean herself.
She changed her clothes, opened the door and walked out, only to find Chen Li waiting for her in the yard.
"Brother Li, let's go!"
Seeing that her hair was still wet, Chen Li asked for a clean towel and wiped it for her.
"You ran out before your hair was dry. It's so cold, be careful not to catch a cold!"
"Hey, it's okay. I'm tough now!"
Shen Li just smiled dotingly and continued to wipe his hair.
"Okay, let's go back and fix it. It will be fine in a while."
Chen Li rubbed her head and sighed, "Wanwan, you can't go back with me now. It's not safe to be with me. I'll ask Ah Mo to pick you up later. Can you stay here for a while?"
