incense as a medium

Chapter 24
"Slaves are human too! Slaves are also afraid of death! What's more, I'm still an aunt! I'm your elder! Do you treat elders like this?" Han yelled at the top of her voice, throwing aside her usual meekness.

When Liu Bailu heard the commotion inside, she couldn't get angry. She pushed Yuniang who was pressing Bai Shi to go in, walked down the cellar slowly, and went up to slap Han Shi: " What kind of elder are you? What happened today! Tomorrow I will sell you!" She turned her head to look at Qin Shi again, and said coldly: "Sister-in-law! You are from a famous family, and you met a slave What! Break her legs if you don't listen! When is this? What's the trouble! You let her out, she's greedy for life and afraid of death! Someone really came, and she appointed to bring someone in!"

As Liu Bailu spoke, he kicked Han Shi's leg again, and Han Shi squatted on the ground in pain and howled, "Ancestor! Look! Look at these children of the Liu family! They are disrespectful to their elders!"

Liu Bailu ignored her, turned around and went out to find a rope in the storeroom and threw it down to the cellar with Qin to tie up Han, then tore off the hem of her clothes and stuffed it into her mouth, and then she survived.

Originally worried about her son, Bai Shi listened to Liu Bailu saying that she was going to sell Han Shi, so she obediently stopped struggling, and Yuniang also let her go tactfully. Shi sighed, shook his head and said, "What a crime!"

Liu Bailu knew that Liu Su was referring to Han, so she didn't answer, but let Bai down with a sullen face. There was no place to stand inside, and Bai could only stand on the steps when she came down.Liu Bailu walked sideways from the narrow stairs, Liu Su was startled, stepped forward and asked, "Bailu! Where are you going!"

Liu Bailu glanced at the door of the cellar, and said, "Go out, my daughter, and fight against the enemy with Shuangjiang and the others. My daughter is still a young man, stronger than my aunts. My sister-in-law still needs to take care of Gu Zongze. , this stepmother is always inferior to my own mother, isn't she?"

Liu Sushi was frightened by Liu Bailu's words, she pushed aside Baishi and squeezed over, grabbed Liu Bailu's hand and said in a trembling voice: "Good boy, tell mother, is there any grievance? Is there anything you can't think about? "

Liu Bailu's words imply that he went up to look for death, Liu Su couldn't help thinking of the bloody bellyband, and the hand holding Liu Bailu tightened again.

Bai Shi also persuaded: "Miss, why don't you let the concubine go out, the concubine has nothing to be afraid of with such a low life."

Qin frowned and said: "Sister, even if the marriage is withdrawn and people see it, it's not worth losing this life, right?"

"Miss, what Young Mistress said is right." Yu Niang, who was standing outside, knelt on the ground and said to the inside: "My servant heard people say that the sister-in-law of the Lin family was very beautiful when she was young. Once the Tatars broke the city and was ruined by others." However, sister-in-law of the Lin family did not seek death or life. Instead, she picked up a knife and went forward to kill the enemy every time the Tatars attacked the city. Only then did she meet and get married with brother Lin. Miss, there are many women here who have been killed People have ruined it, but they live well, miss, you are just being looked at on the arm, it's okay."

The matter of Lin's sister-in-law is not a secret, many people know about it, but no one has ever mentioned it, and few people here go to check Luohong when they get married.After all, in such a place where wars are frequent, saving one's life is good, so how can there be so much time to cry about chastity that is not worth anything at all?

But, not to mention the sister-in-law of the Lin family, even if Liu Bailu's white arms were seen by others, she would have to renounce herself from others, or simply go out of the house.

Liu Bailu was almost taken into consideration, forced himself to laugh and said, "See what you're talking about? Why did I get so distracted by that screwdriver? Well, mother, I'm fine..."

Liu Bailu's eyes flickered, and as he spoke, he pushed Liu Su. Liu Su staggered and bumped into Bai. Bai leaned against the wall and supported Liu Su. feet, but it was dark in front of his eyes, and the door of the cellar was closed.

"Egret!"

With a scream, Liu Su touched the wall and climbed up to the door and pushed the door vigorously, but she couldn't push it.

Liu Bailu closed the door of the cellar, turned around and ordered Yu Niang and Shuang Jiang who were stunned: "Help me bring the altar back!"

Shuang Jiang rushed over to help, and Yuniang also got up and tidied up the altar together.

Liu Bailu finally locked the door of the warehouse, and touched the gold-plated copper hairpin on her head. The tip of this hairpin was specially polished, and it was extra sharp. She pulled out the hairpin and held it in her hand, and went back to When he arrived at the main room, he sat on the main seat.

The slightly whitish sky suddenly turned blood red. Liu Bailu was startled, and he couldn't help standing up and walking to the corridor to look up. He saw the sky outside was full of fire, and there were all kinds of screams for help. Liu Bailu covered his mouth and let out a cry. The exclamation was still in my throat, when I heard the gate of the next courtyard wall being kicked open, many people rushed in, and then the sound of "bang bang" came from the gate of my own house.

Yuniang and Shuangjiang subconsciously blocked Liu Bailu behind them.

Countless Tatar soldiers broke into Lihua Lane laughing loudly, entering every door and grabbing anything they saw. Perhaps the nearby residents hid in time, and the Tatars did not see the residents here.

A Tatar leader ran to the gate of Liu's house, looked at the small sign of "Liu House" hanging in front of the door and laughed, pointed at the sign and murmured a few words to others, everyone burst into laughter, and went to knock on the door , took a few shots and realized that something was blocking the inside, the little leader's eyes lit up suddenly, stroked his mustache, waved to everyone and said in Tatar: "The door is closed from the inside, there must be someone inside!"

"Pretty lady of the Han people." Someone responded.

The little leader squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "The majesty likes the Han lady the most, we will divide the girls, and the lady will be given to the majesty!"

Before the door was broken open, the Tatars began to divide the spoils.

Liu Bailu heard the movement outside the door, her heart arose, she subconsciously turned her head to look for a place to hide, but this house is such a big place, there is no place to hide, and if they hide, Those people might not be able to find it in the warehouse, and it would be bad for them to see their mother.

The few people who went up to knock on the door saw that they couldn't open it, so they began to knock on the door with their shoulders. The mottled wooden door had been knocked open long ago, and it was because of the two heavy wardrobe doors behind that it was strong enough not to fall down. .Seeing this, the little leader waved his hand to the person next to him, and the person handed over the torch in his hand. Seeing this, the little leader snatched the torch and threw it on the ground, cursing: "What if the fire burns out the little beauty? Pig brain !Climb the wall!"

Several people responded in unison, and glanced at the courtyard wall that was as high as one person. They walked to the wall and stood still, with their hands clasped in front of their waists. As soon as the people below exerted their strength, the people above used their strength to jump onto the roof of the inverted house.

As soon as a few people went up to the roof, they saw three people standing under the porch. At this time, the sky was dimly lit, and the sky was full of fire in the distance, and the area reflected was as bright as day. Liu Bailu hid behind the two, with a beautiful face Incomparably calm, his flying peach eyes stared coldly at the few people who jumped onto the roof.

Those people screamed, turned their heads and murmured a few words to the little leader below, and then two of them jumped into the yard. Frightened, Shuang Jiang and Yu Niang took a step back subconsciously, and when they saw the two of them ran away In the direction of the gate, I just breathed a sigh of relief, and then almost immediately, the hearts of the two raised again. Just now, someone was talking outside the door. Although they didn't understand, they also knew that it was definitely not a good thing. Now people come in What are they going to do?
Shuang Jiang turned her head involuntarily to look at Liu Bailu, but saw her face was calm, and the light in her eyes was icy cold.

Liu Bailu had already pulled out the hairpin and held it in the palm of his hand. If those people came...

"Bang!" With a sound, the already collapsed gate fell down without support. Shuang Jiang trembled all over, and Yuniang quickly reached out to support her daughter. Even though their legs and feet were weak from fright, they still blocked Liu Bailu's body. Don't move forward.

The little leader, the handsome man, ran into the yard and saw the willow and egrets on the veranda with their eyes straightened. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and waved his hand to make people go forward, but he heard the loud shouts of killing outside. The little leader was taken aback for a moment, then turned his head to look.

A Tatar ran in at the door, knelt down in front of the little leader covered in blood, and said, "The Yongding army is back! They are too cunning!"

"What!" The little chief exclaimed, and hurriedly asked, "How many people are here?"

"The whole army!" said the Tartar.

The little chief looked uncertain. Someone had already found the kitchen and brought out several bags of rice, noodles, vegetables and fruits and piled them in the yard. The Tatar soldiers said one after another, "Let's retreat! Your Majesty told us to grab the food and leave."

These people spoke fast and anxiously, and they spoke Tatar. Liu Bailu couldn't understand, but she could guess from the expressions of the little chieftain and the crowd, as well as the movement outside, that reinforcements had probably arrived. As soon as the frost went away, those icy peach blossom eyes immediately became breathtakingly watery.

The little leader looked at Liu Bailu's watery eyes that had firmed up with a slightly hesitant face, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Anyway, take this woman back!"

The little leader pointed at Liu Bailu, and the Tatar rushed forward without hesitation.

There is a thin wooden door behind Liu Bailu, and the windows and other places are also made of wood. Even if they hide in the house, the Tatars can kick the door open. Not only will there be no benefit in hiding, but it will also make them nowhere to hide.

A few Tatar soldiers rushed up, Shuang Jiang yelled and beat up with sticks. Yu Niang knew some punches, but it was just the fists and legs that she learned in her early years, so she could subdue the woman in the inner house. But at this time her life was threatened, and Yu Niang Niang actually used all her abilities to wield a kitchen knife so impenetrably that the Tatars were unable to attack for a while.

Liu Bailu looked at the Tatars coldly and stood there motionless. Seeing Shuang Jiang and Yu Niang exhausted, she suddenly raised the hairpin in her hand and said coldly, "Stop!"
