Chapter Twelve From now on, I will protect you!
Chapter 12: I will protect you in the future! ()
"Stop!" Tang Jinlou suddenly shouted.
Mr. Tang woke up from contemplation, his hand subconsciously tightened the reins and lowered the horse. He looked forward and his heart was immediately filled with anger and sadness. At a moment, two corpses were hanging on the poplar tree! And even the clothes were peeled off on the corpse!
Tang Yuanwai looked up at the sky and tried not to let his tears flow out of his eyes. However, his casual glance had already seen the figures of the two people hanging on the tree.
"Dad, are we still leaving?" Tang Jinlou sighed. There were corpses hanging on the treetops on the side of the road. What does this mean? Tang Jinlou felt a little confused and had already begun to consider whether the family had abandoned their horses and carts and began to walk.
Tang Yuanwai's voice trembled slightly: "Go down and take a look." Tang Jinlou looked at him strangely, and then saw his eyes looking at the corpse. He thought of something, but didn't say anything, and jumped off the horse silently. The curtain of the carriage was lifted in a corner. I don't know which lady saw Tang Yuanwai's abnormal behavior and wanted to accompany him. Before she got off the car, she heard Tang Yuanwai say calmly: "You are all staying in the car." His voice was not loud, but it had a majesty that he had never had before.
The figure in the car trembled slightly, and after a moment, the curtain was put down.
Mr. Tang was very slow and walked towards the tree with great difficulty. He stared at the tree tightly, as if he wanted to imprint something deeply in his mind. Tang Jinlou lowered his head and followed him silently.
"It's her! It's really her..." Tang Yuanwai murmured, and Tang Jinlou's heart seemed to be cut by a knife. He raised his head and saw that his father's face was covered with tears. Tang Jinlou's tears fell down. He didn't know why he cried, not because of sadness, not because of pain, and not because of encounters...
Tang Jinlou wiped away his tears and looked at the people on the tree. Out of respect, he did not look at the female corpse. They were no longer covered with inches of strands on their bodies. Judging from the color of their skin, they had just been killed. That is to say, the bandits are nearby! Tang Jinlou clenched his fists tightly and accidentally caught a glimpse of the man's face...
Tang Jinlou grew up and said, "Dad! It's Mr. Su..."
That's right, although his messy hair had covered part of his face, Tang Jinlou could tell at a glance that this person was Mr. Su!
Tang Jinlou consciously touched Chang Xiao, who was still placing him on his waist.
"If I asked Mr. Su to go with us, would he be killed? If I hadn't informed him at that time, would he have encountered such a coincidence?..."
Tang Jinlou blamed the person himself. Although this was not his fault at all, he just couldn't help feeling guilty.
Mr. Tang breathed a deep breath and said, "Lu'er, let's go."
Mr. Tang walked back two steps, but found that Tang Jinlou did not follow him. He looked at Tang Jinlou in surprise, and saw him standing there blankly, as if thinking about something important. Suddenly, he was shocked all over, and turned his head to look at Mr. Tang with excitement, and said in a trembling voice:
"Dad, dad, they have a daughter. Their daughter is not here. Have they escaped?"
Tang Yuanwai looked at his son lovingly: "She is a little girl, where can she escape? It must be because of the bandits who saw that she was young and did not kill her, so they caught her. Oh, it's a pity..." He didn't say anything, but Tang Jinlou knew what he meant. What good luck would he have if a little girl with a carved jade was caught by a group of bandits?
Tang Jinlou shook his head and suddenly shouted loudly: "No...I don't believe it! He must have been hiding, I, I want to save her..." Then he shouted as if he was cheering himself up: "I want to save her!!!" As he said that, he actually ran out and searched around the tree. Tang Yuanwai originally wanted to call him, but when he saw his lost look, an indescribable emotion rippled in his chest, and the words that hit him were not said.
Tang Yuanwai looked at the female corpse on the tree and held the green jade in his arms tightly with his left hand!
Su Yanyue was not captured by the bandits. The bandits came and went like the wind. On this flat official road, they saw Mr. Su's family at a glance. Su Yanyue remembered that his father was still laughing at that time. He said happily: "We are not far away, we are near the path. At that time, there is no need to be afraid of any bandits and horses." But his smile had already solidified on his face before it completely rose. The bandits were still far away, but Su Yanyue clearly saw his father's desperate eyes.
"They have seen us."
Su Yanyue felt that the hand that mother held her suddenly increased her strength, as if she wanted to crush her hand, but she felt the mood of her family and kept holding it up without saying a word.
Mrs. Su said in a trembling voice: "Master, what should I do?"
Su Yanyue only saw her father sighing long, then suddenly picked him up, took two steps, and came to a grass that was extremely tall, and even her knees were lost. Su Yanyue only saw her father sitting in the grass and plucking right, and actually looking for a small cave next to the stone next to the grass.
The cave was really small, and no one could lie in except for a child as big as Su Yanyue. Mr. Su put his daughter inside, untied the Yaoqin from behind, placed it in Su Yanyue's arms, and then carefully arranged the grass to cover the small place. Finally, he said to Xiao Yanyue through a clump of grass: "Xiao Yan'er, let's play a game again, okay? You hide inside, no matter what is outside, you are not allowed to move, and wait for today... Wait until tomorrow... Then you secretly come out, and your father and mother are here to watch you to see if you can do it. OK?"
Su Yanyue lay obediently in the small hole, tears flowing: "Okay."
Mr. Su smiled with satisfaction. He quickly walked to Mrs. Su, held his hand and said, "Madam, we died together today, which can be regarded as fulfilling my promise when I married you that day."
Mrs. Su leaned her head gently into her husband's arms and whispered: "Is Xiaoyan'er safe?"
Mr. Su smiled at the sky: "When I was a child, I hid there, and no one could find it!"
The couple took two quick steps in the direction they came. The official road was surrounded by mountains, which was also the reason why Mr. Su was already desperate when he saw the horse thief from afar.
The two were quickly caught up. According to the horse thief, it should be the man who killed him and the woman who stayed. Unfortunately, the beasts just dismounted and could only see two living corpses. Mr. Su had a dagger in his chest, and Mrs. Su had bit her tongue and committed suicide!
Su Yanyue lay inside, tears kept flowing, but she didn't make any sound. She listened to her father's words very well, and she even wanted to make up for the disobedient parts in the past at once. So she came hurriedly as the sound of horse hooves, listened to the cursing of those people, listened to the searching around, and listened to the sound of horse hooves going away... She didn't make any sound.
She heard the sound of horse hooves coming again, but she didn't move, and then it was still a searching sound. She listened to the person searching not far away, and she could hear it carefully. Then, he slowly found his place. Su Yanyue became nervous, but no matter what, his voice was getting closer and closer to him. Then, at some point, Su Yanyue, who was in a daze, suddenly felt the sunshine shine in.
She turned her head in frightened and immediately looked at Tang Jinlou's eyes. Tang Jinlou's tears came down at that time. He carried Su Yanyue out of the small cave and hugged her tightly in her arms. Su Yanyue tried very hard to push Tang Jinlou away, but she still didn't have the strength. Then at some point, she gradually calmed down. Tang Jinlou let her go, and saw the little girl staring at Chang Xiao, who was separated by her waist, and in her arms, she was still holding the Yaoqin left to her by Mr. Su.
Tang Jinlou hugged her face, stared at her eyes seriously, and said solemnly: "I will protect you from now on!"
