MTL - Fast Wear: on the Correct Posture of Counterattack-Chapter 155 The woman of the mountain (5)
Chen Xi couldn't believe it was all true!
She walked out of the door cautiously, and found that there was indeed no one around.
Chen Xi didn't know who helped her unlock the lock, but she knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If she missed it this time, no one would know when the next opportunity would be.
After walking a few steps forward, Chen Xi remembered something, turned around and locked the door where she came out.
After locking the door, Chen Xi went straight to the kitchen.
Because of the banquet, there were a lot of leftover ingredients and dishes in the kitchen. Although it looked simple and rough, it was a life-saver for Chen Xi who had not eaten all day.
While stuffing things into her mouth at will, she put the easy-to-carry food and a hatchet against the corner into a back basket.
After that, Chen Xi carried the basket and sneaked out of Li Wangsheng's house.
Most of the people in the village went to put out the fire, and Chen Xi could even see the dazzling fire in the distance.
The fire did not tend to be extinguished, but instead became more and more prosperous by the wind.
Chen Xi sneered, thinking that this might be retribution.
After running along the corner of several households, Chen Xi ran to the back mountain.
She was awake when she came, but she was completely powerless.
She has observed that this village is deep in the mountains, and there is only one road leading to the outside. If you run out along the road, you will be caught soon. Running into the mountains is the best!
"Lanlan, what are you looking at?"
Hearing her second brother's voice, Li Xiulan immediately retracted her gaze.
She seemed to see someone running over just now, but it was too dark to see who it was, but the clothes looked familiar.
"Nothing to see."
"Then let's go. It's our turn to put out the fire. Mom is right. It may be that someone set the fire on purpose. We have to go back and look at the house at home."
Li Xiulan nodded, still thinking about the figure she just saw, the clothes didn't seem to be the clothes worn by the villagers, it seemed like—
Li Xiulan took a step, and it seemed to be the clothes worn by the daughter-in-law who had just been bought home by Uncle Sitang today!
"Lanlan, why are you stopping there?"
"Just now I--"
Li Xiulan opened her mouth, not knowing what she thought, and swallowed the words she wanted to say.
"It's nothing, I just burned down the ancestral hall, do I need to rebuild it, and then every family will have to pay again."
Brother Li turned back and touched his little sister's head, and said with a smile: "This kind of thing is something that adults are worried about. We don't need to worry about it, let's go back quickly."
"Um."
Li Xiulan walked a few steps quickly, and finally turned around and glanced back, but it was dark behind, and she couldn't see anything, as if the figure just now was her own illusion...
On the other side, under the cover of the night, Chen Xi was not discovered all the way. Seeing that he was about to enter the mountain, a figure suddenly rushed out from the other side, so scared that Chen Xi almost screamed.
The man also seemed to be startled by Chen Xi, and stopped suddenly.
Chen Xi's heart was about to jump out of her throat. She almost thought she had been discovered, but when she looked closely, it was the girl who was sold in with her!
The other party was also taken aback when they saw Chen Xi. The two looked at each other, and then unknowingly ran into the mountains.

Sun Jiayi sat on the bed silently and massaged her left foot, the quilt on the bed exuded a damp musty smell.
She knows that there is no one at home now, but what can she do?
The door was locked from the outside, and she couldn't get out at all.
Sun Jiayi lowered her head and pressed the acupuncture points on her feet earnestly. Her grandfather was an old Chinese medicine doctor in the village. She used to learn some fur knowledge with him.
It was not easy to finish the massage, when Sun Jiayi heard the sound of the door lock rattling, she immediately put the quilt over her body and pretended to be sleeping.
back so early?
Sun Jiayi didn't move, but her ears perked up. She listened carefully to the sounds outside and identified them carefully.
The door lock was opened, the lock was taken off, the door was pushed open...
Why is no one coming in?
Sun Jiayi waited for a while, but there was still no movement. She got up and looked outside——
The door was half open, but the door was empty.
What's the matter?
Sun Jiayi was in shock, she hesitated for a moment, and finally got up and walked to the door.
There was no one outside the door, and the door lock that had locked her for several years was opened and placed on the ground.
This--
Sun Jiayi's heart beat violently, this is an opportunity!
Sun Jiayi didn't hesitate, she locked the door again, took two steps out, then suddenly remembered something, turned back to the kitchen, and when she came out again, she carried a backpack on her back.
Before leaving, she thought for a while, and then went to the woodshed to take a look.
No one was seen in the small corner where the sleeping person was originally, and no second person was seen in the rest of the room. Sun Jiayi didn't know whether he was relieved or something else, it was hard to describe.
that kid...
Sun Jiayi closed her eyes and finally said sorry in her heart, then turned around without hesitation and walked towards the back mountain.
She couldn't run, she could only walk quickly. When she walked up, she could clearly see that her left foot was lame, but compared to her usual difficulty in moving, it was a world of difference!
[Her feet are really not that serious! Xingyun, how did you see it before? 】
Xingyun walked out from behind the wall. She watched Sun Jiayi's back gradually disappear into the dark night. She did not answer Qizai's question, but walked to Guan Sun Jiayi's room and reopened the lock.
Seeing that his host skillfully opened the lock with a thin wire a few times, Qi Zai was still very proud.
Its host is really awesome!
Xingyun entered the room and took two pieces of clothes that Sun Jiayi had changed before, and then locked the door again.
Seeing that Xingyun first sprinkled something in the direction where Sun Jiayi left, and then dragged her clothes on the ground and walked in another direction, Qi Zai asked in a puzzled way: [What is this for? 】
[There are dogs in the village. 】
【so? 】
[I think to myself. 】

Seeing the fire, Li Lao Er was almost under control~www.novelbuddy.com~ Big brother and father were not around, and the stupid little brother didn't know where he went, so he sneaked back while others were not paying attention.
He also saw a few other people going home on the way, and he didn't want to say hello to them, so he trotted home all the way.
As soon as he got home and saw the Iron General, he remembered that he had no keys in his hand.
However, it was not difficult for him. In the village, the doors were basically not locked, and the ones who locked the doors were basically for the daughter-in-law. The lock was not a good lock, and it could be easily opened.
I found something and fiddled with it a few times, and the lock was opened.
Thinking of the watery girl in the room, Li Lao Er's body suddenly reacted.
After laughing a few times, Li Lao Er pushed open the door and walked in.
After a while, Li Lao Er stumbled out of the door and shouted loudly while running towards the ancestral hall:
"Someone! My daughter-in-law ran away—"
