136 The Dark Tide Rises Chapter 124
"Where does Ah Nian think this is?"
"Liangxian" Zhou Rushui glanced at him, and his tone was lazy.
The corners of Wang Yuxi's mouth twitched, and he shook his head with a chuckle, "Think again." ”
Seeing him like this, Zhou Rushui glanced at him with slanted eyes, held his forehead and wondered, "How many days have I been asleep?"
"It's been more than three days. Seeing that Zhou Rushui's whole person was still wooden, Wang Yuxi hugged her in his arms with concern, stroked her hair, and said gently, "You were very well-behaved when you were sick, and you slept in a coma all day, and your mother-in-law didn't know how to change your clothes, but you were more honest than Achu." ”
His voice was as warm as water, but Zhou Rushui was ashamed when he heard it, his face turned red, he bit his lip, and said in a low voice, "In this way, you are also very honest." As he spoke, he glanced at him again, and said slowly, "Since the barbarians are disguised as Xia people, most of them want to go to the Xia country because they want to understand the convenience of the Xia people." In this way, we should also be on the way to the western Xinjiang. According to this footsteps, if you are not in Liangxian, where should you be" When saying this, Zhou Rushui lowered his eyebrows and narrowed his eyes, and his small face was still very beautiful even if it was sick.
In the past few days, seeing her burn groggy, Wang Yuxi is not comfortable in her heart, but now seeing that she can speak and laugh, her heart is rare and stable, looking at her with a smile, her voice is extremely beautiful, and she said, "Ah Nian really wants to be passive all the time, and he is poor with those barbarians."
"I want to kill them directly and take down the soldiers, but aren't you Tao, can't you kill or rob them in my Zhou" Zhou Rushui rolled his eyes, his clear face was confused and bright, but there were some mountain bandits.
Wang Yuxi couldn't help but scratch the tip of her nose, there was tenderness in her eyes that could drown people, nodded, and said quietly, "It's true that you can't kill or rob, so I don't bother to follow anymore." ”
Hearing this, Zhou Rushui was stunned, straightened her expression, and said stiffly, "It's hard to follow up, San Lang let go of the nest of thieves and rats under his nose" She said this a little urgently, and couldn't help coughing twice and sniffing.
The room was quiet because of this sound, and after a while, Wang Yuxi's light voice came in a low voice, she rubbed her hair, and said slowly, "Silly Ah Nian, although you can't kill or rob it, you can ask them to spit it out by themselves." ”
His voice was leisurely with a smile, Zhou Rushui turned his head to look at him fixedly, his eyes swept over his gorgeous clothes, frowned, poked his chest, and said sullenly, "Then don't sell Guanzi, don't talk about it, I'm going to be annoyed."
Seeing her like this, Wang Yuxi's smile was even worse, he grabbed her finger and pinched it, "Your brother always praises you for being studious and thoughtful, and now you don't have the slightest patience."
"You know that my brother praised me for being studious and thoughtful, why don't you know that he also laughed at me for being a leather monkey" Zhou Rushui raised his chin, refuted him with a smile, and finally did not forget to squeeze his hand back, stared at him with round eyes, looked at him and said, "Now that you know that I am a leather monkey, you can't regret it." ”
She looked a little coercive, but there was no coercion at all, Wang Yuxi couldn't help but laugh and coughed, and stopped teasing her, and said bluntly, "It's true that they pretend to be Xia people and want to go to Xia Kingdom." Because of the layers of barriers in Tianshui City, it is difficult for soldiers to be fake. But has Ah Nian forgotten that although the western Xinjiang is close to the summer realm, it is separated by Qiliang and two mountains, and the second is blocked by the ghost Rong in the west, and it is really not cost-effective to break into the west with an armor and crossbow. So I traveled day and night, by water, and came to the city. ”
"Yuancheng" Zhou Rushui stared at him and blinked, and suddenly realized, his eyes burst with a bright light, "After Yuancheng, it is Lu Guo, San Lang is guessing, they will borrow from Lu"
Wang Yuxi bowed lightly and said, "The market will open in ten days, and at that time, the city will be completely unfortified, so that the people of Zhou and Lu will gather the goods of the world." However, a few cars of soldiers can get through the trick in a daze. ”
"Then ten days later, whether it is armor and crossbows, or those barbarians, they will all enter this city" She whispered, and leaned her little face on Wang Yuxi's chest, wondering, "But even so, how difficult it is, I still have to let the monarch know, and then catch the turtle in the urn, and catch the thief behind closed doors, but you are still cheating to death, I went out too hurriedly this time, and I didn't even bring the seal." In this way, how can the city lord of the city listen to me?"
"The city is a border gate, even if you present the seal, Gontz may not follow. Wang Yuxi stroked Zhou Rushui's forehead, bent the corners of his mouth, and said slowly, "Besides, as soon as the announcement comes out, it's not like a grass startling snake, so why catch turtles in the urn."
"You can't startle the snake, you have to take it by surprise. They spent a lot of money to buy a lot of things, how can they spit out so easily as you say" Zhou Rushui thought about the headache, so he simply shrugged his shoulders, turned his face sideways, touched Wang Yuxi's handsome and amazing eyebrows with a smile, stared at him, smiled slyly, winked playfully and said, "San Lang is really a good color, no matter how much worry you have in your heart, just look at you, I feel very happy." In this way, it is better not to think about it, and take advantage of the time to take a good look around this city. ”
Her face became too fast, so Wang Yuxi couldn't help but bask at her, laughing at her, "I was almost annoyed, I didn't care about it in a blink of an eye, I just wanted to visit this city."
Hearing this, Zhou Rushui sat up straight in his arms, stroked his cheek, and whispered with a clear gaze, "Since you already have an idea, why should I bother with my brains." I even remembered that when the matter of Wang Leopard is revealed, you don't need to hide and die. In this way, you will no longer be my one-man Saburo. "If I want to monopolize you like this again, I don't know what year and month it will be.
There were thousands of words in her heart, but Zhou Rushui didn't say all the words, but when she looked at each other, her eyes already showed deep affection.
The truth in the world is true and false, only true feelings are difficult to fake. Hearing this, Wang Yuxi was also deep-sighted, so he nodded and gently responded with a pun, "What Ah Nian wants, he thinks about Xizhi." ”
The night was getting deeper and deeper, and the heavy rain was like a curtain, but it could not extinguish the fire that ignited on West Street, and the firelight illuminated the entire street and alley, and the people on the street ran out of the house in a panic, looking at a loss.
Wang Duancai sat down from the post house, and saw the fire not far away, and after a while, he saw Gonghuan rushing into the door with an uncertain expression, and said discoloredly, "Xiangye, the big thing is that the grain depot is burning."
Pengze was in a great drought, and King Zhou ordered Wang Duan to rescue the disaster first, and there was another way, which was to take the county to transfer grain to help the disaster. But he only arrived in Yu County, and the granary was burned to the joints, which is really incredible
Hearing this, Wang Duan pulled the corners of his mouth, lifted his robe and walked quickly into the rain. When he was about to go out, he turned his head and instructed Gong Huan, "Go and check the rich households in this county's grain shops, and invite all the people." As he spoke, he didn't stop, he glanced at Yin Fangjin, the county who came from the rain with a cold sweep, flicked his sleeves and walked towards the fire.
In the early morning of the second day, every grain shop in the county was knocked on the door by the soldiers, and the wind and rain were heavy at that time, but they could not save the blackened West Street and the granary in between.
On the other end, Gongzi Mu Sheng hurried to Pengze, but whenever he passed by the township, he would stop for a moment and ask the local villagers about their farming.
Whenever this happens, Peng Ran will lift the curtains, look at him quietly, look at the white walls and green tiles behind him, and her heart is full of warmth.
In this way, I walked for ten days, the closer I got to Pengze, the more rare the human tracks became, and I reached a place fifty miles away from the city, where I could see bald soil everywhere, and there was no lifeless air everywhere, and if I looked closely, there was not even a single weed.
Seeing this, a layer of dark clouds hung in Peng Ran's heart, she turned her head worriedly, and saw that her son Mu Sheng frowned, and after a moment, she took out a dagger from the dark drawer, looked up at her and said, "Ran Ran can use force."
Hearing him ask like this, Peng Ran's expression froze, and she didn't hide it, nodded and said, "You can still protect yourself." ”
As soon as these words came out, the corners of Gongzi Musheng's mouth were pulled, and he handed the dagger into her hand, and said lightly, "Then you will put it away, the king has not yet arrived, and the front may be really Longtan Tiger's Den." ”
Obviously, it was Wang Duan who went first, but they were ahead of the curve, so I don't care if there is anything wrong here. This place is different from the place I have passed before, there is no grass, it is almost barren, there is no sound of birds, and the barking of dogs is not heard. It can be seen that the disaster in Peng Ze is worse than expected, if not, those who fled the famine would not have left the city gate to clean the turf and trees on the roadside.
Thinking of this, Gongzi Musheng's expression was complicated, and then he thought that Wang Duan would be shelved before the grain chestnut arrived, if there was no grain chestnut support in the city, it would be really dangerous
Seeing that he was like a bow, Peng Ran was also stunned, thinking that something was wrong, and then he thought about words, but saw that he had already picked up a long sword and came out, jumped out of the carriage, turned over and jumped on the red horse in front of him.
Suddenly, at the sound of an order, all the soldiers rushed to the city gate at an accelerated speed.
In this way, the carriage became more and more subverted, and Peng Ran was already unsettled, and almost did not sit down. Fortunately, she reacted very quickly, and when she came back to her senses, she was busy leaning against the wall of the car, so as not to be sat upside down.
The four sides are deserted, and in the gallop, the wind is particularly strong, and the curtains are blown and drummed, and they are flying non-stop. Peng Ran looked out along the gap, and saw that Gongzi Mu Sheng was in the front, and even his back was a little cold.
At this time, the wind was no longer cold, Peng Ran let it blow, gently brushed the broken hair on the side of his face, and then took his eyes away from Gongzi Mu Sheng, and his eyes slid past the generals of the left guard who came to protect him from halfway, lowered his eyebrows, and quietly hid the dagger in his big sleeve.
Half an hour passed, the sun has turned west, the wind is faintly mixed with the smell of fish, the closer to the city, the more fishy the smell, when the city gate is close in front of you, you will see that the mountains and forests in front of the city have all become mountain bags, the grass and trees on the bald soil do not grow, as far as the eye can see, all are stacked corpses.
A soldier was ordered to dismount, and only a few steps forward was a stumbling under his feet. When he looked down, he saw a piece of hand bone kicked out of the loose soil.
Seeing this, everyone was stunned, and when Peng Ran heard the sound, she lifted the curtain, and when she saw the nearby scene, her face was also white.
She covered her nose with a handkerchief, and looked forward with the nausea that came to her nose, and saw that her son Mu Sheng had already dismounted. He bent down and picked up the bones of his hand, staring at the bones of the mountain, his eyes were full of pity, but his voice was dry like broken ice, and when he saw the situation clearly, he did not hesitate, and said in a deep voice, "Favoritism, you lead the team up the mountain, if there is no life, you will cover it on the spot."
