The Dead Dad is Back - Chapter 73
In the dining room, which was still lively just now, the atmosphere suddenly froze.
Second Master looks like a thin and thin scholar, but he has more right to speak in this mountain bandit den than the boss. As soon as he opened his mouth, the big men looked at each other, and several people showed hesitation on their faces , but his lips moved, and no one said anything against it.
Miaomiao looked at their faces carefully, and said politely: “Rhubarb and I can go down the mountain now.”
“After we go out, we won’t talk nonsense. Rhubarb recognizes the way home. When I go back and tell my father, I say… I said Rhubarb ran out by himself, ran into the mountains, and I was on the way. met it.”
Miaomiao jumped off the stool, big yellow and **** dog were standing beside her thoughtfully.
Miaomiao asked politely, “Can you tell me which way to go down the mountain?”
The second master stared at her, his face uncertain.
Miaomiao found some malice in his eyes, but soon disappeared.
Before he opened his mouth, the boss pulled Miaomiao behind him, and he said to the second master with a stern face: “What does she know about such a young child? Things are forgotten.”
The second master looked away from Miaomiao and glanced at the people around him. Seeing that many people agreed, he said, “Then let her go down the mountain now.”
“Now? It’s so far away from the capital, it’s getting dark, do you let her walk back to the capital alone? The road is too dangerous.”
Second Master: “Then what do you say?”
Boss: “Tomorrow morning, I will send her down the mountain.”
“Wait until tomorrow, maybe all the people who come to her have already arrived at the foot of the mountain!” The second master pointed at Miaomiao and said, “She is the daughter of a high-ranking official in the capital. You know, when the officers and soldiers find this place, all of our brothers will have to lose their heads!”
“But…”
“The master, we have been able to hide here for so many years, it is all due to being careful all these years.” The second master reminded: “She is not from our place, someone is looking for her outside. Children, are also much better than us.”
The boss closed his mouth with an ugly expression.
He was silent for a long time before shouting: “Mao Er!”
The beard hurriedly squeezed over: “Boss, I’m here.”
“Send her down the mountain, hurry up!”
The bearded man hurriedly responded, he stretched out his hand to Miaomiao, and before Miaomiao approached, the boss said again: “Wait.”
A big man hurried out immediately.
The boss hugged Miaomiao himself, his movements were very careful and proficient. “I’ll take you to the door.”
Miaomiao replied obediently: “Thank you.”
Which way Miaomiao took when she came in, she also took that way when she came back. Miaomiao’s head was next to his chest, and she heard a thumping beating in his chest.
When she reached the door, the boss handed her over to the bearded man, and the hastily prepared dry food, flatbread and jerky. The boss’s big palm touched Miaomiao’s head, rubbed it again, and said, “Don’t run around next time.”
Miao Miao Xin said: If they hadn’t stolen her dog, she wouldn’t have run around.
She was lying on the back of the whiskers, and the two dogs followed them obediently. The two walked down the mountain road, and after walking a long distance, Miaomiao looked back, but saw a figure standing at the entrance of the cottage.
How strange.
Miao Miao turned her head back in confusion.
These people say they are bandits, but in Miaomiao’s impression, bandits are all bad people. But these people were not bad to her, stole her dog and gave it back to her. Miaomiao had never seen such a bandit.
In the bedtime stories she has heard, the mountain bandits are the heroic protagonists who are the cannon fodder on the evil road.
Before Miaomiao could think of a reason, the bearded man spoke.
“Don’t blame the second master, the second master is also for our own good. We are mountain bandits. If we are caught by officers and soldiers, we will lose our heads.” The bearded man said honestly.
Miaomiao asked, “Why do you want to be bandits?”
“We don’t want to be either.” Bearded said: “It’s just that I can’t stay at the foot of the mountain, so I can only be a bandit.”
Miaomi still doesn’t understand.
She asked, “Will you rob?”
“Before.”
“Before?”
, and it can go on.”
Miaomiao seems to understand but does not understand: “Why don’t you live at the foot of the mountain?”
The bearded man said: “I’ve been a bandit, and I can’t go back.”
“Then why do you want to be a bandit?” The words came back.
The beard didn’t say anything, just said: “I’ll send you to the gate of the capital, do you know the way yourself?”
“I know it!” Miaomiao said proudly: “No matter where you go, Rhubarb knows the way home. Rhubarb is amazing!”
“What a good dog!”
“Yeah!” Miaomiao said, “You stole the rhubarb, it really scared me. Fortunately, you didn’t eat the rhubarb.”
The beard said cheerfully: “There are so many prey on the mountain, we don’t plan to eat the dog. The boss brought this dog back because he wanted to use it as a hunting dog. Dogs actually have owners.”
“Rhubarb has a sign hanging around its neck with its name on it, so wild dogs don’t have dog tags.” Miaomiao made an ‘ah’, and then she remembered: “You forgot Give it back the dog tag of Rhubarb.” That dog tag was given by the emperor, it was something of Rhubarb.
“Dog tag? What dog tag?”
Miaomiao gave him a gesture: “It’s round, with characters on both sides, and it’s made of gold.”
The bearded beard sighed: “The dogs of the big officials are different, the dog tags are still made of gold!”
Miaomiao said seriously: “That’s rhubarb, you have to give it back.”
gone.”
“Wang Dahu?”
“It is the person who helps us deal with the prey in the city. The boss is the dog he brought from him. He has a very dark heart and is getting worse and worse recently. The money he got back is getting less and less. The second master is the most knowledgeable here, and he can read. But he can’t enter the capital, and he said he has to find another way. I don’t know if he has come up with it. “
“Then will he give me back Rhubarb’s dog tag?”
The bearded man thought for a while, and said, “When I go back, ask the boss.”
Miaomiao lay back in disappointment.
The forest at night was dark, and even the stars were shaded by the trees.
Maybe she had run too much before, Miaomiao secretly yawned several times while talking to him.
The bearded man said: “Go to sleep, it’s a long way from here to the capital. When you wake up, you should be in the capital.”
Miaomiao was a little embarrassed, but she couldn’t resist the drowsiness that hit her. She had held her eyelids to speak with her beard, but before she knew it, she entered a familiar dream.
The dream was empty and there was nothing, Miaomiao consciously turned out a table and pen and paper, and obediently wrote in large characters. She skipped school during the day and had to make up for the homework she missed.
When Miaomiao finished writing two large pages, Xuan Ye appeared in the dream.
When he saw Miaomiao, he first nervously looked Miaomiao up and down, seeing that she was safe and sound, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked impatiently, “Miaomiao, Where have you been?”
Miaomiao looked at him blankly.
“I heard that the rhubarb was lost, you went to find the rhubarb.” Xuan Ye added: “But you and the old general have not come back all day, the general has gone crazy, and now he is everywhere find you.”
He heard the news from the guards, and he was very anxious. Fortunately, he could still meet Miaomiao in his dream, so he lay down early. Maybe he was so anxious that he couldn’t sleep. Fortunately, as soon as he closed his eyes, he saw Miaomiao.
“Looking for me?!” Miaomiao said, “Is Grandpa looking for me everywhere!”
Xuan Ye became even more nervous when he heard this: “You separated from the old general? Where are you now?”
“I found rhubarb.” Miaomiao told him what happened today, and when she secretly ran away, she twisted her fleshy fingers, round His eyes blinked quickly, and he was embarrassed to raise his head, “I followed the **** dog up the mountain, and met a lot of people on the mountain.”
“Many people?”
“Little brother, I only tell you this, don’t tell anyone else, especially my father.” Miaomiao lowered her voice and said mysteriously: “They say they are mountains bandit!”
After all, she is a mountain bandit, and Miaomiao has only been seen in small stories. She promised not to say it out, but the little secret was rumbling in Miaomiao’s stomach, trying to come out, but she was suffocated, and she especially wanted to find a reliable person to share.
In Miaomiao’s eyes, the prince’s brother is a reliable person who does not speak loudly!
Miaomiao reminded again: “You can’t tell others, or they will be arrested.”
Xuan Ye’s complexion changed greatly, and he was almost frightened: “The mountain bandit?!”
“Yeah. Rhubarb is right there with them.” Miaomiao said happily: “Little brother, don’t worry, I found Rhubarb and I can go home tomorrow.”
Xuan Ye’s whole heart was lifted, and he was more nervous than before falling asleep.
I met a bandit, can I still go home! ?
Mountain bandits are killing people without blinking an eye, maybe they are secretly sharpening their knives while Miaomiao is sleeping!
Miaomiao is optimistic by nature, no matter how hard life is, she can smile every day. But this time is a matter of life and death, and optimism cannot save lives.
He hurriedly asked Miaomiao the exact location of the mountain, and Miaomiao answered honestly. Going out of the capital, going north all the way, it takes a long time to ride a horse, and when I see a very high mountain, that is where she is.
Specifically, Miaomiao couldn’t tell, but Xuan Ye quickly wrote down this clue.
He also wanted to ask about the situation of the mountain bandits, but when he looked up, before he could say anything, he saw that Miaomiao’s figure was getting weaker and weaker. Miaomiao looked down at herself, and only had time to wave her little hand to say goodbye to him. Under Xuan Ye’s terrified eyes, she disappeared in her dream.
She woke up.
Only Xuan Xi was left to face the empty dream world, and he couldn’t help but start guessing some bad results in his mind.
Is it possible that those gangsters have already attacked Miaomiao?
The more he thought about it, the worse he became, or maybe he was too anxious, and suddenly woke up from the dream.
“Come on!” Xuan Ye shouted: “Come on, I have something to tell General Yuan!”
