Chapter 1737: Homeless
Lu Qingshan knew that the place was not easy to find, he searched for a day and didn't find it, and it was so dark that it was even more impossible to find it. Therefore, he did not oppose Lu Manting's decision, but sat by the fire and cooked rabbit soup with peace of mind.
Lin Wan pulled Lu Manting to sit down by the fire, and then took off the cloak on her body, spread it next to the mound, and carefully put the small stone on it.
Everyone didn't speak, and after the broth was cooked, Lu Qingshan used a few broken bowls from nowhere to fill a bowl for himself, Lin Wan, and Lu Manting.
Lin Wan held the hot rabbit broth, blew it gently, and then drank it in small sips. And Lu Manting seemed to be hungry for a long time, so she picked up the bowl and drank it, so hot that she almost dropped the bowl.
Seeing Lu Manting's pitiful appearance, Lin Wan couldn't help but sigh in her heart, whose fault is it that Lu Manting has come to this point?
Xiao Shi never woke up, and Lin Wan fed Xiao Shi some broth in the same way, which made Xiao Shi's body much warmer.
At night, Lu Qingshan still guarded the fire, Lin Wan, Lu Manting and Xiaoshi slept by the fire, but Hongfan never came back.
On the second day, when Lin Wan woke up, it was not yet dawn, Lu Qingshan was napping by the fire, and Lu Manting had already woken up, holding the small stone that finally opened her eyes, her face was full of joy and tears.
Lin Wan walked to Lu Manting's side and sat down, gently put her fingers on Xiao Shi's wrist, and a trace of relief appeared on her face. Xiao Shi's condition has stabilized, and as long as he takes good care of it, there will be no major problems.
The words that Lin Wan said yesterday about Xiaoshi's condition were actually a bit exaggerated, mainly to persuade Lu Manting to return Xiaoshi to Lan Ziyu, or someone from Xiling Kingdom.
Lin Wan guessed that the person who came to chase Lu Manting must be Lan Ziyu, because Lan Ziyu adopted Xiao Shi and poured all her efforts into Xiao Shi's body, how could he let Lu Manting take him away?
And the people from Xiling Kingdom, no matter who they are, since they are coming for the little stone, they must know the identity of the little stone. Xiaoshi is Ximen Yumin's biological son, and it is much better to give Xiaoshi to Ximen Yumin to raise, than to follow the homeless Lu Manting.
However, Lin Wan didn't expect that Lu Manting still had a place to go, and it was in this big mountain.
Originally, Lin Wan thought in her heart that since the people from the Pingnan Army, the Nanyue Kingdom and the Xiling Kingdom had all come, if she and Lu Qingshan were discovered, she only needed to identify herself and be saved. However, Lin Wan was very curious at the moment, what major secrets were hidden in this mountain?
Hongfan didn't come back, Lin Wan wasn't worried at all, with Hongfan's ability, it could protect itself. Moreover, the disappearance of Red Sail may be due to the encounter with an acquaintance. If it was really someone who was familiar with Lin Wan and saw Hongfan, he must have known that Lin Wan was also here, and he would definitely come to the rescue.
Besides, now that Lu Manting is here, if Hongfan comes back, Lu Manting recognizes Hongfan, and Lin Wan's identity will be exposed. Although Lin Wan thought that it was nothing for Lu Manting to know her identity, Lin Wan didn't want Lu Qingshan to know this, and didn't want to become Lu Qingshan's hostage.
Lu Manting fed Xiao Shi some leftover medicinal juice and broth from last night, and Lin Wan will also eat some of it.
When Lu Manting and Lin Wan were ready, Lu Qingshan slowly opened his eyes, stood up, and said, "Princess Heshuo, while those people haven't found this place yet, you can quickly take us to the place you said." ”
Lu Manting did not hesitate, hugged the small stone, stood up, and staggered towards the entrance of the cave. Lin Wan herself was also weak, but she still gently supported Lu Manting and slowly followed her side.
Lu Qingshan looked at the three sick women and children, couldn't help frowning secretly, walked over a little impatiently, grabbed Lu Manting's arm, and pulled her to walk out.
Lin Wan carried a wrist-thick wooden stick as his crutch, silently following behind Lu Qingshan and Lu Manting, walking slowly, observing the surrounding environment and terrain, and quietly leaving some secret marks.
After walking in the dense forest for a whole morning, Lu Manting finally took Lin Wan and Lu Qingshan to a very hidden valley.
When Lin Wan saw the first person in this valley, his eyes widened in shock, and his identity was almost revealed. Because this person is none other than Chen Yin, the deputy commander of the Yulin Army.
Chen Yin was still dressed in military uniform, with a few guards, walked out of the valley, and when he saw Lu Manting, he was overjoyed and hurried over.
Lu Manting also smiled and called, "Ah Yin, why did you come to pick me up in person? What about my uncle and eldest cousin? Are they all in the valley?"
Chen Yin nodded and said with a smile: "My father is in the valley, and my eldest brother found that there were many strangers in this mountain suddenly, so he personally took people out to investigate." ”
Lu Manting said suddenly: "Those people outside are chasing me, and they all blame me for causing trouble for you." ”
Chen Yin shook his head with a smile and said, "Cousin is too worried, not to mention, those people can't find here, even if they do, we are not afraid." Let's go, I'll take you to meet your father and grandmother, they miss you very much. As he spoke, he took the child in Lu Manting's arms, held the child with one hand, supported Lu Manting with the other, and slowly walked towards the valley.
Lin Wan has never seen Chen Yin have such a gentle and careful side, in Lin Wan's eyes, Chen Yin is the big devil who kills people without blinking.
Chen Yin only had Lu Manting in his eyes, and he didn't pay attention to Lu Qingshan and Lin Wan who were following Lu Manting, let alone take it to heart. Let Lu Qingshan and Lin Wan follow behind them, as if they didn't exist, they greeted Lu Manting with warmth and care.
The valley is very large, with roads for horse-drawn carriages, buildings as luxurious as palaces, streets and shops, peasants and soldiers, and everything is very well equipped. Some places already look old, like an old town. Obviously, this is not something that can be built in a short period of time, it should have been here for many years.
Lin Wan thought of Fengbei Mountain and Fengjia Village, which was far worse than here. Fengjia Village has been operating in Fengbei Mountain for 20 years, but the Chen family in Haining has been rich since the previous dynasty, and it has always been the leader of the martial arts alliance. Although it has been relatively low-key in recent decades, who dares to ignore the power of the Chen family in Haining?
Chen Yin took Lu Manting and Xiaoshi into the largest palace in the valley, while Lin Wan and Lu Qingshan were taken to a small courtyard next to the palace.
