Zhang Xiucai carried the child on his back and carried Sai Dongshi to the edge of the cliff. At this moment, they were only half a step away from the cliff, and there was a cliff beside them. If they accidentally fell, they would be crushed to pieces.

The two children were so frightened that they cried loudly and struggled non-stop. The three- and four-year-old children are not weak. Zhang Xiucai's body was swayed to and fro, and he might fall off the cliff at any time.

Wu Chongwen couldn't help squinting, his heart rose in his throat, but he didn't dare to make a move.

This cunning Zhang Xiucai tied the two children tightly in front of his body and behind his back. No matter how skilled he was, he only had one pair of hands. He saved the child in front, but he couldn't save the one behind.

And if Zhang Xiucai was killed, the two children might fall into the cliff with him, which is too dangerous.

While weighing the solution in his heart, he spoke out to comfort the two children.

"Da Bao Xiao Bao, don't cry, don't move, be obedient~"

The two children had always been close to Xiao Ningxue and Wu Chongwen, and after listening to Wu Chongwen's comfort, their emotions gradually stabilized, and their struggles were not so severe.

Sai Dongshi also tried his best to calm down his swaying figure, and said softly to the child, "Don't be afraid, Dabao and Xiaobao, nothing will happen." After speaking, he begged Zhang Xiucai again, "Ah Cai~ I know you are not so cruel. Man, please let the two children go, they are innocent.

The corner of Zhang Xiucai's mouth pulled out a distorted arc, and the scar on his face twitched as well, and he squinted his fierce eyes and looked at Wu Chongwen.

"It's fine to let them go, but Xiao Ningxue has to be exchanged."

At this moment, Zhang Xiucai thought this way. This man is Xiao Ningxue's husband, so he can only be threatened by holding Xiao Ningxue hostage. Otherwise, even if he gets the money, he probably won't be able to escape.

Wu Chongwen also hesitated at this moment, exchanging Xiaoxue for the two children would indeed be more conducive to rescue, but the danger of this desperate man in front of him is indescribable.

Not knowing how to make a choice, Xiao Ningxue answered from behind.

"Yes." She replied, and then she walked to Wu Chongwen with her bag on her shoulders, and looked at Zhang Xiucai with that fearful but courageous look, "I also brought the money, so I will exchange it with you." them.'

While talking, he untied the burden and opened the box.

Inside the box was a stack of thick banknotes. The moment Zhang Xiucai saw the banknotes, his eyes lit up.

Once a prisoner on death row, almost beheaded, and then starving, licking blood on the knife edge~ Now everything is ignored, feelings? Women? Farts are nothing, Yinzi Te Niang’s is the most important thing!
At this moment, he was staring greedily at the box full of bank notes, and asked Sai Dongshi in a low voice.

"Dong Shi, are you really unwilling to go with me? With money, you will have a good life in the future. You have to think carefully about it."

"I can't go with you." Sai Dongshi refused without thinking, "My life was saved by Xiaoxue, and I haven't repaid her kindness at all~, I can't go. '

After speaking, he shook his head violently at Xiao Ningxue, "Xiaoxue, Xiaoxue, don't come here, it's too dangerous~'
"Don't move!" Zhang Xiucai immediately tightened the knife in his hand, and the sharp blade immediately opened a bloody gash on Sai Dongshi's neck, threatening fiercely, "Don't blame me for being ruthless to you if you move again, I will first kill you~"

Xiao Ningxue hurriedly reached out her hand to stop Sai Dongshi who wanted to continue speaking.

"It's okay, Dong Shi, Zhang Xiucai's nature is not bad, he won't hurt us."

These words are a kind of comforting words commonly used when facing hijackers, to reduce the tension and vigilance of the other party. We can't expect to release the hostages with just a few words, but at least they can suspend their harm to the hostages.

Sure enough, after Zhang Xiucai heard this, his hand holding the knife loosened, and the blade left his neck.Xiao Ningxue breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to strike while the iron was hot.

"The people he killed before were heinous and deserve to die~ The reason why he has come to this point is because he was forced to do so. We should not blame him."

After speaking, he looked at Zhang Xiucai sincerely.

"Zhang Xiucai, you avenged Dong Shi. I'm actually very grateful to you. Now the 5 taels of silver is our repayment to you, and you can take it."

"However, how about you and Dong Shi returning from the bridge to the bridge and forgetting each other in the rivers and lakes?"

Zhang Xiucai looked at Xiao Ningxue suspiciously, and seeing that Xiao Ningxue spoke with sincerity, he couldn't help but believe it a little bit.The scar on his face twitched a few times, and he laughed.

"Okay, as long as you let me go, I won't hurt you~" After speaking, he lifted his chin to Xiao Ningxue, "You come here with the money box, and I'll let them go.

Two three- and four-year-old children, both of whom are chubby, with one on the chest and the other on the back, consume a lot of energy. If you want to leave safely with the money, kidnapping Xiao Ningxue should be enough.

Xiao Ningxue said hello, then gave Wu Chongwen a reassuring look, and walked towards Zhang Xiucai step by step, holding the money box.

When Xiao Ningxue walked up to Zhang Xiucai, Zhang Xiucai pushed Sai Dongshi away, and then put the knife on Xiao Ningxue's neck.

Sai Dongshi collapsed to the ground, and Wu Chongwen hurriedly stepped forward to grab her and protect her behind him.

And Zhang Xiucai, carrying two children on his back and facing the mountain wind, swayed from side to side and couldn't hold on anymore.

Xiao Ningxue took the opportunity to persuade, "Let the children go, you can't walk fast or far with them on your back~"

Zhang Xiucai wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead. He originally wanted to get the money box first and examine it first, but his physical strength did not allow it.

After thinking for a while, he ordered Xiao Ningxue.

"You come to solve it~ But be honest, don't play any tricks, otherwise I will bring you even if I fall off the cliff."

Xiao Ningxue smiled relaxedly, "Brother Zhicai, don't worry, we won't be so stupid as to risk everyone's lives for such a small amount of money." He turned around and untied Xiaobao tied to his chest.

Even though Xiaobao was only three years old, he was quite heavy. The rope was tied round and round, strangling him to death. No wonder Zhang Xiucai couldn't bear it.

Soon Xiaobao was released and put beside Wu Chongwen.

Afterwards, Dabao was also released unharmed. After Zhang Xiucai unloaded the weight, he felt relieved, but his grip on the knife was even tighter.

He's not stupid, of course he knows which is better for him, two children on his back or holding an adult hostage.

"Give me the money box." He put his right hand against Xiao Ningxue's neck and stretched out his left hand.

On the thick stack of bank notes, I only saw the 1000 tael on the face, it is not yet known whether the bottom is right, I have to look through it to be at ease.

"Okay." Xiao Ningxue responded, bent slightly to pick up the box on the ground, and handed it to Zhang Xiucai.

Zhang Xiucai didn't answer, and continued to order, "Open the box and show me the bank notes inside."

"Okay." Xiao Ningxue continued to respond, then put the box back on the ground, and took out the bank notes inside.

But at this time, Xiao Ningxue was half squatting, and the distance from Zhang Xiucai was the farthest.

Of course, the most important thing is that Zhang Xiucai's attention is all on the silver ticket in Xiao Ningxue's hand.

At this moment, in the blink of an eye, there was only a "pop," a bullet sank into Zhang Xiucai's forehead.

Zhang Xiucai's unwilling eyes suddenly widened~ But before he died, he only had time to do this one action, and in the next second, he slanted his body and fell towards the nearby cliff.

And Wu Chongwen was also at the moment when he was about to get angry, he rushed over and grabbed Xiao Ningxue's waist like lightning, and brought her to a safe place with a single movement.

wow~
When Zhang Xiucai's body fell down the cliff, it broke several small trees under the cliff. This was the last voice he left in this world.

At this time, the mountain wind picked up suddenly, and rolled up the stack of fake banknotes on the edge of the cliff, like paper money floating around!
Sai Dongshi rushed to the edge of the cliff where the yellow paper was flying, and looked at the person who disappeared under the cliff, the person who gave her warmth and imagination when she was young, and shed sad tears.

"Dong Shi~ You don't have to be sad for him, he deserves what he deserved." Xiao Ningxue pulled Sai Dongshi back from the cliff, took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears.

Xiao Mengyao and Zhang Laosan deserved to die. At that time, Zhang Xiucai was not heinous, but he later became a bandit, and he did a lot of evil things. The dozen or so women locked up in the cottage? They were all kidnapped by them. of.

There are thirty or forty corpses piled up in the grotto at the back of the mountain. These people must be innocent people who died at their hands.

Therefore, Zhang Xiucai deserved to die.

After hearing what Xiao Ningxue told about these things, Sai Dongshi felt much less guilty towards Zhang Xiucai.

Another one, when she was in Taohua Village, she was crazy and sober at times, and she also saw many of Zhang Xiucai's true colors.

Zhang Xiucai often revealed in front of her that he had a great pleasure in killing people, and after killing a person, he was full of joy~
Such a person may be born with evil in his bones, and helping her revenge is just a legitimate cover.

After figuring it out, Sai Dongshi's mind was at peace, and he no longer struggled with this matter.

All the robbers in the stockade were kidnapped by Wu Chongwen, and sent secret guards to Ji'an City, where they were handed over to Xiao Wenzhao.

The kidnapped girls also gave them enough travel expenses to let them leave on their own.

After dealing with this matter, Wu Chongwen sent another secret guard to send Wang Fugui and Sai Dongshi to Gaoyang City, while he and Xiao Ningxue returned to Ji'an City.

When we arrived in Ji'an New City, it was already early October, and it was cold when it said it was cold.

When entering the city, there was light rain in the sky, Wu Chongwen simply took Xiao Ningxue's horse behind him, rode with Xiao Ningxue, wrapped Xiao Ningxue in his arms, and kept her warm and comfortable. freeze.

After entering the city, as soon as they walked to the construction site on the other side of the shop, they saw Xiao Ruohan and Xiao Ruolian coming over with food boxes and oil-paper umbrellas.

Xiao Ningxue was suddenly puzzled.

Strange, sisters Ruohan and Ruolian haven't returned to their husband's house after three dynasties? Why did they live in their mother's house for so long? Did something happen?
