C179 (1/2)
Under the dim moonlight, the white snow seemed especially hazy, and people's vision seemed to be somewhat blurred. For a moment, they seemed to hear the rustling sounds, but they could not see anyone.
”Wait, here we come.”
Just this one sentence was enough to scare Dian Wei, Xu Zhu, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Xin Ping, Xin Pi, and the others. A few of his hands could not help but touch the knife handle, causing his heart to beat faster and all the hairs on his body to stand up.
”Creak …”
Right at that moment, the door to the manor opened a crack again. First, a head popped out, then a woman squeezed through the crack. She looked at Yang Lin and the rest, turned and waved towards the door, following that, two more women squeezed out from the crack of the door.
The three women gently closed the door and stood at the entrance of the manor. One of the women had her hands empty while the other two each carried two bags. They looked at Yang Lin and the rest, their eyes filled with confusion.
Although Yang Lin and the others were already more than thirty steps away from the door, Yang Lin could clearly see that they were three little girls who were probably not more than sixteen years old. Yang Lin could not help but guess, could it be that the girls in the villa were trying to escape?
Just as Yang Lin was thinking about this, the few little girls that came out looked at Yang Lin and the others, as if they were reprimanding him. Suddenly, a little girl waved her hand at Yang Lin, and said with an almost commanding tone.
”Come and take the package.”
This was even more unbelievable. Those girls wanted to run away, but they still needed to help them carry the items? You girls are quite bold. You trust us so much, aren't you afraid that we'll take you out to sell you?
”Lord General, could this be a trap?”
Suddenly, Xu Zhu whispered into Yang Lin's ear. Yang Lin also thought of this possibility. Could it be that the manor lord had let these few little girls set up this trap for him in order to take revenge? But Yang Lin was not too worried, he smiled at Xu Zhu.
”With just the few of us, how could a small manor lord keep us here?”
”But the Manor Lord does not know our background. He might want to give it a try.”
”Makes sense.”
Yang Lin nodded and looked at the girls again. Under the hazy moonlight, the three beauties could be clearly seen, especially that little girl with both hands. Under the shine of the snow-white light, she seemed extremely beautiful, a beauty that could topple empires.
”Hurry up, what are you standing there for?”
The girls seemed to be getting impatient from waiting. The two women who were carrying the parcels stomped their own feet, picked up their own parcels and walked towards them. From their bashful looks, it could be seen that the bags in their hands were quite heavy.
The girl with two empty hands followed him. Her beautiful face looked exceptionally gorgeous under the moonlight. She turned around and looked at the manor's gate. It seemed that she was still reluctant to leave. When she turned around again, her eyes were filled with tears.
Gradually, the three women walked to the front of Yang Lin and the others. Dian Wei, Xu Zhu, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Xin Pi and the others did not act like a gentleman, and walked over to help them carry their bags. The two women with the parcels walked over and placed the parcels on the ground.
”Why don't you all help to raise it? It doesn't have any discernment ability at all.”
She stood up and glared at Dian Wei and the others, lecturing them in a bad mood. Having trained in the large family for a long time, she was able to tell at a glance that Yang Lin was the master and these fellows were evidently servants.
Yang Lin waved his hand, only then did Dian Wei and Xu Zhu walk forward, picked up the few bags, and placed them on the horse's back. From the movements of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, it could be seen that the bags were indeed a little heavy, and there were even some ”ding ding dang” sounds.
”Let's go.”
The woman with empty hands walked over. She did not even look at Yang Lin and only spoke lightly towards the direction that Yang Lin was standing. Under the hazy light of the moon, Yang Lin could see even more clearly that she was a peerless beauty. Her delicate face was as white as snow and her pretty face looked even more beautiful than a fairy.
As the woman went to lead the empty horse, another went to help. The lady who taught Dian Wei and the others a lesson walked up to Yang Lin, as if he wanted to talk to him. But when she saw Yang Lin clearly, he cried out involuntarily, as if he had seen a ghost.
”Miss, wrong, wrong.”
”What's wrong?”
The little girl's voice was a little loud, causing Yang Lin to jump in fright. He looked at the little girl in confusion, not knowing what he should do. [What's wrong with being surprised like this in the middle of the night? Isn't this enough to scare people to death?]
”It's not you. We're not waiting for you.”
The woman hurriedly said. Her eyes were filled with panic, and that fierce and forceful attitude just now had completely vanished. She looked at Yang Lin in fear, as if she was looking at a ghost or demon. She retreated step by step, the thick snow beneath her feet creaking.
