Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine

Because the distance was too far, Yao Shu could not hear clearly.

She subconsciously wanted to lean over, but she didn't expect that a bird flew over her head. Her actions alarmed the bird and attracted the attention of Mr. Li and the bearded man.

"Who is there?" Mr. Li immediately looked over with vigilance.

The bearded man did not wait and quickly moved forward. As he walked, he took out the machete behind him, always ready to give the opponent a fatal blow.

Yao Shu looked at the bearded man approaching slowly and didn't know how to respond.

She subconsciously held her breath and remained motionless, fearing that she would be discovered.

But despite this, her fingertips trembled slightly, still revealing her nervousness at the moment. She was worried that the trembling of her fingers would shake the branches, so she couldn't help but gently retract her hand, but she didn't expect that the trembling would get worse.

From the perspective of the bearded man, he could see a bunch of branches and leaves vibrating at different frequencies, which was really suspicious.

Finally, the bearded man came to Yao Shu.

The strange thing is that the bearded man simply looked at Yao Shu but did not make any other move.

Then, the bearded man suddenly chopped down the branch next to Yao Shu.

The branches dropped down, not only did they not hurt her at all, but they blocked her figure even more tightly.

"Master Li, there is no one here. Did we hear wrongly?" The bearded man turned his head and asked in a low voice.

Mr. Li obviously didn't believe what he said. He couldn't help but slowly walked forward and said in a low voice: "How is it possible?"

"It is absolutely true, Mr. Li, that there is nothing here, but it is a mess, with corpses eaten by wild beasts everywhere. The scene is extremely bloody. Mr. Li has not been exposed to such scenes on weekdays, so it is better not to take the risk. The one in front is better." The bearded man pretended to search if there was anything else inside, but in fact he was covering Yao Shu more tightly.

After hearing this, Mr. Li, who had always been pampered, simply stopped stepping forward and subconsciously took two steps back.

Seeing that Young Master Li had no intention of coming forward, Yao Shu breathed a sigh of relief.

It's just that she doesn't know why the bearded man wants to help her, but for now she can only wait and see what happens. She took a deep breath and adjusted herself so as not to reveal her secret again.

But after this incident, Mr. Li stopped talking about what had just happened. Instead, he began to tell the bearded man to continue to be cautious.

Seeing Mr. Li and the bearded man leaving side by side, Yao Shu hid behind a branch for a moment, and then walked out slowly and calmly.

While he was still thinking about whether to continue tracking him, a black shadow suddenly walked forward slowly behind him.

Yao Shu's heart skipped a beat, wondering if Young Master Li and the bearded man came back again, and she was caught red-handed.

Thousands of possibilities had already been preset in my mind. I turned around slowly and cautiously, only to find that it was a bearded man.

There is no third person besides him.

Yao Shu didn't know what kind of expression she should use to face him. The smile on her face froze again and again, and then she spoke cautiously: "This big brother..."

The bearded man kept staring at her with gloomy eyes and said nothing.

Knowing that Yao Shu could only feel hairy in her heart and couldn't help but speak again, the bearded man slowly spoke out: "I have known for a long time that you are not simple, and now it seems that you are right. I took it lightly and let you There’s an opportunity to track it down here.”

"It can be seen from what just happened that you and I are of the same mind. Although I don't know where this eldest brother came from, please rest assured that you and I have the same purpose." Yao Shu tried her best to speak in a soft voice, so that The other party takes it lightly.

How could she know what the bearded man was trying to do, but the top priority was to stabilize his emotions to avoid taking drastic actions.

Hearing Yao Shu's words, the man snorted coldly: "Don't be too pushy. The reason why I saved you just now was because I didn't want to expose myself. Since you are safe now, don't continue to pursue this matter. This is not something you, a rich man, can explore. If it happens again, I won’t be able to protect you."

"Wait a minute." Yao Shu watched the man turn around and leave, and couldn't help but call him, "I know you were kind-hearted to save me just now, but are you sure you really don't want to cooperate with me? I have many connections here, no matter what What you can think of is what you can't think of. Rather than fighting alone, cooperation with me may be a better way out. You also know that Mr. Li has a strong background, and it will definitely be difficult for you to compete with him alone. "

The bearded man had to admit that Yao Shu's words made him very moved, but now, he really didn't know how to respond.

He couldn't take the initiative to reveal his identity, and he didn't want Yao Shu to continue to be in danger.

He was extremely entangled in his heart. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but persuade him: "You should stop pursuing this matter. If you continue to investigate this matter, it will probably bring you fear for your life. Why should you do this? You are stubborn and won’t let go of this matter.”

"My son was imprisoned because of this matter. As a mother, you must be strong. If I don't continue to investigate, he will only be in prison. Do you want a mother to watch her child being wrongly accused and sentenced? A capital crime, and then died unjustly and miserably?" Yao Shu said and began to cry softly.

The bearded man couldn't bear it, and finally couldn't bear Yao Shu's hard work, so he could only agree to cooperate with her.

Yao Shu was overjoyed and brought the man to Wang Yuanyang's Chamber of Commerce.

Wang Yuanyang felt that this man looked very familiar and couldn't help but look at it. Suddenly he remembered the identity of this man and was shocked.

"Could it be that you are Yang Ting, the detective who disappeared a few years ago?"

Yao Shu didn't know what was happening in the capital, so she was very surprised by Wang Yuanyang's surprised look.

After listening carefully, she realized the whole story.

According to Yang Ting's account, he had tracked down clues to illegal salt sales a few years ago. Seeing that the key person was about to be found, he was suddenly betrayed.

He was imprisoned and sentenced to exile two months later.

Before being exiled, Marquis Ningyuan found him and secretly replaced him. In the next few years, Yang Ting approached Mr. Li as an undercover agent and learned about the sale of illegal salt.

The hardships during this period cannot be summed up in one sentence, but when Yang Ting mentioned it, he only downplayed it.

"My experience is not the most important, the most important thing is selling illegal salt." Yang Ting said and couldn't help but sigh.
