After Bu Gandang left with the horse, Xiao Yeyang pulled Daohua out of the carriage, helped her onto the mount, and then turned over and sat on it.

The two of them rode on the same horse, admiring the vast wilderness and walking at a leisurely pace.

Daohua leaned comfortably in Xiao Yeyang's arms, enjoying this rare alone time.

"Do you want to gallop on a horse?"

Daohua's eyes lit up and she nodded hurriedly.

When Xiao Yeyang saw it, he smiled happily, waved the whip in his hand, and the horse that sat down flew out like an arrow from the string.

The sweet laughter and the wanton and bright smile, accompanied by the galloping of the horse, remain on this land.

Xiao Yeyang slapped his riding whip and ran quickly with the rice flowers. When the horse rushed up a slope, a dark-colored half-grown boy suddenly appeared from behind the slope.

"Xu~"

Xiao Yeyang was startled and quickly tightened his mount.

When the young man saw the tall horse charging towards him, he was stunned to the spot.

The horse raised its front legs high and was tightly restrained by Xiao Yeyang, so that it did not kick towards the boy.

Xiao Yeyang rode his horse to avoid the young man, took a few steps back, and then quickly looked at Daohua: "You're not scared, are you?"

Daohua patted her chest: "It's okay, I was just shocked."

Seeing that her expression was normal, Xiao Yeyang turned over and dismounted.

"I want to go down too." Daohua stretched out her hands.

Xiao Yeyang immediately reached out and hugged her down.

At this time, Defu and Meilan, who were driving a carriage, also arrived.

Defu: "Master, what happened?"

Xiao Yeyang ignored him and strode towards the young man who was so dark that only a little white could be seen in his eyes.

The young man seemed to be frightened and stood there with a stiff posture.

Daohua also walked over, not wanting Xiao Yeyang to scare anyone again, so she took the lead and asked: "Little brother, are you okay?"

The concerned voice of inquiry reached his ears, and the young man finally came to his senses. As soon as he came to his senses, his legs were weak and he fell to the ground, and then tears flowed down.

Uh...

Daohua and Xiao Yeyang glanced at each other quickly. The boy in front of them was only twelve or thirteen years old. Seeing him crying so sadly made them feel guilty for bullying a child.

Seeing the embarrassed expressions on the two masters' faces, Defu quickly took out his handkerchief and handed it over: "Little brother, don't cry. Let's talk about what you have to say."

The young man looked at Daohua and the others and felt no malice. He wiped his eyes with the lucky handkerchief and said with sobs, "I thought I was going to die just now."

Defu was dumbfounded: "Aren't you dead yet? Get up quickly, stop crying." After saying that, he reached out to help the young man.

After the young man stood up, he saw that the veil in his hand was completely dark, and he looked at Defu with some embarrassment.

Defu looked at the veil that was directly dyed black, and the corner of his mouth twitched: "I gave this veil to you."

Seeing that the young man's mood had stabilized, Daohua asked, "Little brother, where did you come from? Why did you get so dirty all over your body? Did you run so fast just now?"

Hearing this, the young man's expression suddenly became nervous and panicked. Before he could say anything, loud voices came from behind the hillside.

"That little bastard will definitely not be able to run far. I must catch him back."

The young man was about to run away, but Defu caught him.

The young man was anxious: "They are people from the coal mine and they came to arrest me."

Xiao Yeyang looked at the young man: "Did you escape from the coal mine?"

The young man nodded quickly: "Please let me go. I will die if I am caught by the people in the coal mine. I beg you."

Xiao Yeyang heard the sound getting closer and closer, and glanced at Defu, who immediately pulled the boy and hid in the carriage.

As soon as the young man was pushed into the carriage by Defu, several fierce and strong men appeared in sight.

Xiao Yeyang stood in front of Daohua, blocking her behind, and glanced at the strong men with an expressionless face.

Several strong men looked at Xiao Yeyang and others and were stunned for a moment.

Perhaps they realized that Xiao Yeyang and his group were not easy to mess with, so the strong men did not ask any questions and continued to chase forward.

"Brother Hu, why didn't you ask those people just now?"

"You are blind. That horse and carriage are not something that ordinary people can afford. Moreover, the look of the man in brocade clothes is more intimidating than that of Lord Baihu. We cannot afford to offend those people."

of."

"What if the kid hid in their carriage?"

"Haha, you don't have many opportunities to deal with nobles. I wonder if they, who are so high above us, don't look down on us brats. There are still women among those people, how can they help a dirty child?"
p>

After everyone had disappeared, Defu opened the carriage and let the young man get off.

The young man looked at Defu, then at Daohua and Xiao Yeyang, and then he knelt down with a bang: "Thank you so much for saving me."

Xiao Yeyang looked at the boy. He looked about twelve or thirteen years old, and his body was so thin that it could be blown away by a gust of wind. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you going to work in a coal mine at such a young age?"

There was some anger on the young man's face: "I was forcibly taken away by them."

Xiao Yeyang: "Why did they arrest you?"

The young man shook his head: "I don't know either. My father was a clerk under Yang Baihu in Beihusuo, Beiwan." At this point, the young man's eyes turned red again, "Last autumn, my father died suddenly and inexplicably."

"My family and I were very sad, but we didn't dare to go to the Baihu Office to ask. But I didn't expect that just after the Chinese New Year this year, Yang Baihu actually sent someone to arrest me and take me to work in the coal mine."

"They tortured me every day, asking me to dig coal and not giving me food to eat. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I escaped."

Xiao Yeyang looked at the young man and knew that he had something to say, so he didn't bother to ask.

However, a coal mine was discovered at Beiwan Baihu Station...

In the past few months, he has checked the taxes paid by the Thousand Household Office and the Hundred Household Office under the jurisdiction of Ganzhou Guard in the past two years, and he did not see how much tax money was paid by all the 100 households in Beiwan.

The coal mines in Xiliang can be mined privately, but they have to pay a certain amount of taxes every year. Apparently, Beiwan Hundred Households has hidden the coal mines.

Thinking of the financial expenses of the Ganzhou Guard, Xiao Yeyang became very angry at the officials who took the lead in tax evasion. He glanced at the young man again and said softly: "Those people have already left. You can leave on your own."<

/p>

After saying that, Xiao Yeyang led Daohua towards the carriage. He was startled just now and didn't want to ride anymore.

The young man looked at the backs of the two people with a somewhat struggling expression. When his father was still alive, he often went to Baihusuo and met some noble people.

These people in front of him feel stronger than Yang Baihu. He also saw the scene where the people in the coal mine did not dare to provoke them and took the initiative to avoid them.

Can these people help him?

Thinking of his elderly grandparents at home, and his sister who was targeted by the village villains, the young man gritted his teeth, decided to take a gamble, and ran quickly towards Xiao Yeyang and Daohua.

When Defu saw him, he thought he was going to do something, so he quickly stood up and tried to stop him.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the young man ran over, he knelt directly in front of Daohua and Xiao Yeyang: "Two kind people, please save me and my family."

Although Daohua sympathized with the young man digging coal mines at a young age, she thought about how unclear the young man's words just now, so she looked away.

Xiao Yeyang ignored him and reached out to help Daohua get into the car.

"If two kind people can protect me and my family, I am willing to tell you the location of an open-pit coal mine."

Hearing this, Daohua and Xiao Yeyang both turned to look at the young man.

The young man looked at the two people with hopeful eyes: "Can you help me?"

Xiao Yeyang raised his eyebrows: "Then it depends on whether what you said is true?"

Young man: "...My father is responsible for guarding all the copywriting books in Baihu Station. Last year in the Mid-Autumn Festival, my father returned home excitedly and told me that he found news about coal mines in the previous geographical records, which were just those

The one where they took me back."

"My father found information about two coal mines in total. Yang Baihu took me to the coal mine and tortured me. He also wanted to find out the location of the other coal mine."

"I knew that once I told him, I would die suddenly like my father, and maybe my grandparents and sister would not be able to escape, so I never told him."

Xiao Yeyang looked at the young man: "Do you know what will happen to me if I miss you?"

The young man said hurriedly: "I'm not lying, everything I said is true."

Xiao Yeyang took a deep look at the young man: "Are you willing to go to Ganzhou City?"

The young man nodded quickly: "As long as we can escape from Yang Baihu's clutches, my family and I can go anywhere."

Xiao Yeyang looked at Defu: "You run with him and pick up his family." After saying that, he walked up to the young man and patted his shoulder, "Boy, please don't lie to me.

Otherwise, offending me would be more terrifying than offending Yang Baihu."

The young man shook his head with a pale face: "No."

Xiao Yeyang took back his hand, got into the carriage with Daohua and left.
