Hurry up, and several people in the garrison rushed to the courtyard before lunch.

The steward himself came to meet her, and the guard turned over and dismounted, handed the reins to the steward, and ordered a banquet to be held for her second uncle.

After the arrangements were made, he led the group to the side hall quickly.

When her second uncle saw her enter the door, he hurriedly got up to greet her, and Wei Yong, who rushed back day and night, showed a strange haggardness, and barely stood up by holding on to the armrests of the low couch.

Without waiting for her to breathe a sigh of relief, her second uncle couldn't wait to inform her of the news of her father's disappearance, and tactfully explained his intentions - he was really worried about her father, and it was normal for him to wait too long, so he would be so anxious.

Wei Jian nodded to show that he understood, and walked straight to Wei Yong, pressed his shoulders and sat him back on the low couch: "Uncle Yong, what happened?"

Wei Yong's face was solemn: "I encountered an ambush on the way, outnumbered, had to sneak into the nearby mountains and forests, never thought that the next day into the forest began to fog, for many days did not see the sun, but because of this, we waited for the enemy to escape, and then left the mountains and forests, looking at the city looming in the dense fog, it is indeed a necessary place on the way to and fro, we thought that we were back on the official road, but after walking for two days, the scenery along the way did not change, and the city was still more than ten miles away in front of us. ”

Zu Que interjected: "This is a ghost hitting the wall, going around in circles!"

Wei Yong shook his head: "In fact, we have deviated from the right path for nearly three hundred miles. ”

Wei Ji held his right arm and elbow with his left hand, and pinched his chin with his right hand: "By the time you notice, you have come to the mountain range where my father disappeared." This is an affirmative sentence, and she deduced this result based on Wei Yong's narrative and combined with her second senior brother's map.

Between the mountain range where her father disappeared and the official road leading to Xiqiang, the map is connected by a dotted line, and she didn't understand why this three-hundred-mile path is a dotted line before, but now she probably understands a little.

Wei Yong nodded: "Yes." With great difficulty, he raised his arm, reached into his arms, took out a handkerchief and handed it to the guard: "This is left by the lord." ”

Wei Jia took it and unfolded it, and his heart twitched, it was a blood letter, with few numbers on it: Ge, Yajia, Dad is sorry for you.

She recognized her father's handwriting, this book was indeed from her father's hand, Wei Wei gathered his five fingers and clenched the blood book, and raised his eyes to look at Wei Yong: "Where is my father?"

Wei Yong said with a frustrated face: "I don't know. Without waiting for Wei Jian to ask, he took the initiative to speak: " That mountain range in a small village nearby has two diametrically opposed names, some people call it fairyland, and some people call it ghost land, with a wide canal as the boundary, the people of the small village are to escape the war and flee there to settle down, at the beginning of the time did not know these, many people crossed the canal into the mountain, and then never came back, it is said that in the past 30 years, only one young man in the mountain two years later, was found to fall by the ditch, but carried home has been crazy, always said that the people around him are evil ghosts, he wants to go home, his old father has no choice, so he locked him in the room, as a result of him because he can't get out, he burned the house, and he was burned to death。 ”

Wei Yan, who was holding the blood book, frowned and said, "What do you say have to do with my father's disappearance?"

Wei Yong said with a painful expression: "The lord thinks that these are pure nonsense, because of the war, thinking that there will be a delay of two more days to return the original way, draw a simple map, through the mountain is considered a shortcut, and then see that the road into the mountain is wide and flat, so he led me into the mountain, but the first night in the mountain, after waking up the next day, I was the only one left in the same place, several of us are taking turns to rest, if there is a sudden change, there will definitely be a sound, but I didn't hear anything." ”

Wei Ji sent the blood book to Wei Yong's eyes: "Since you lost contact with my father early in the morning, what happened to this blood book?"

"I went around the mountains for three days, and went around to the ditch, when there was an old man fishing on the shore, he handed over the blood book to me, and told me, the lord commanded, let me leave nothing to care, in the shortest possible time to send the blood book to the second girl, I asked the old man, where is the lord, but the old man replied to me, don't let me care about me and ask, really not a trustworthy subordinate, muttered and left, and then I reacted and chased over, I can no longer find the figure of the old man. ”

After listening quietly, Zu Que sighed: "The ghost stories I make up are not as bizarre as yours!"

Although there are words in the words, Wei Yong has lived two lives and knows Wei Yong very well, he is absolutely loyal to her father, just like Pei Rang is loyal to her, so he will never joke with her father's life.

Digging a pit and setting a trap should also be profitable, this matter is indeed strange, but according to common sense, it should not be for fishing her, after all, this kind of thing is not within the reach of manpower, besides, it takes so much effort to deceive her into eating the original poor father and her fledgling cardamom little girl, can you squeeze out a few taels of oil?

The banquet was prepared, and the steward came to inform the guards and others.

In this case, who can eat, but Wei Jian and Wei Yong begged to come to the door, it was difficult to push, so they reluctantly ate some, and after Wei Jian put down the chopsticks, they immediately put down the dishes and chopsticks, and then asked Wei Jian when he would leave.

Wei Jian pondered for a moment and said to Wei Jian: "Second uncle, you go back first, let me think about it." ”

Wei Jian opened his mouth, before Yu Jiang mentioned it to him, he felt that it was difficult for a strong man, but he was in a hurry to go to the doctor, how could he take care of it so much, even if Wei Jian rejected him, it was expected, not to mention that she only said that she had to think about it, and finally sighed: "Second uncle is useless......" and left.

Wei Yong couldn't even sit still, so Wei Yong left him behind and asked the steward to arrange a room for him to rest for a while.

"Lang Jun, what should I do now?" When only his own people were left in the room, Zu Xuan spoke.

The guard took out some gold from the box that had not yet been moved back and handed it to Zu Que: "Go with the brothers and pick out some weapons that you can use, remember, don't try to be cheap, you must choose the best ones, and buy some thick clothes and things that may be used on the road." ”

Zu Kuo's eyes suddenly lit up: "Lang Jun has made a decision!"

Wei Jian took a deep breath: "After all, he is my biological father, how can he see death without saving him." After a pause: "What's more, there are some things, I still want to ask him face to face." ”

After collecting the gold, Zu Cuo thought of another question: "What about the mount?"

For the sake of convenience, they have recently allocated a horse to each of them, but those are just ordinary horses, with average body and stamina, and it is barely enough to run a few times in and out of the city, and it is certainly not possible to travel long distances.

Wei Jian said decisively: "I'll go to the Wang family, there should be a few BMWs in their horse farm." "With the "pass" given by Wang Xuan, it is convenient and fast to negotiate business with the Wang family, and you will definitely not be cheated.

The two groups of people moved separately, and when they had all the equipment for the road, it was already dark.

Because Wei Yong was still in the other courtyard, Wei Jia and others also returned here, and the steward prepared dinner, Wei Jia took out pen and ink and white silk, and picked up the pen and book.

Zu Cuo stepped forward to take a look, and there were all names of people, and there were notes after the names, such as the characteristics of a sentence or the military camp where he was located, he was confused, and couldn't help but say out: "Lang Jun, this is?"

The guard didn't raise his head: "If my father is just trapped in a maze, I can break the formation and save people; if he is caught by a pretending to be a ghost, he can do so many tricks, I'm afraid it is not something that a few people can do, be prepared, in case we don't have enough manpower, the increase can be arrived in the shortest possible time, these are the elites of my father's army, enough to be ten." ”

Zu Que was very surprised: "It turns out that the captain also told Lang Jun this!"

Wei Ji stopped writing and looked at the big names of people, can she remember it so clearly? She will remember it so clearly, but because they were all picked up by her and followed her from birth to death for more than ten years, how could she forget it!

Their lives are definitely hard enough, all of them have outlived her, and suddenly they are a little curious, how will they react when they learn of her death in their previous life?

After a hurried dinner, he handed over the silk book to Wei Yong, and asked him to send it to the military camp through the guò post station, and transferred these people according to the list, led by Zhu Xiao, who was written first, and stood by on standby.

After listening to Wei Yong's arrangement, he was shocked beyond words, he was not Zu Cao, naturally he knew that Wei Yi had never mentioned military affairs to Wei Yi, and hurriedly glanced at the list on the silk book, almost all of them were newcomers who had joined the army within the past two years, not to mention her father, I am afraid that the people in charge of military affairs under her father would not remember it so clearly, how did she know?

"Uncle Yong, without further ado!" Wei Jian looked at Wei Yong in a daze and said loudly.

Wei Yong woke up, it was important to save people, if there was anything he didn't understand, he would slowly understand it after the matter was over, so he was escorted out by Wei Yong's people.

Not long after Wei Yong left, another carriage ushered in outside the courtyard, the curtain was lifted, and two people, one big and one small, came down.

At that time, Wei Jian was about to return to the manor, and the group stepped out of the gate and walked directly opposite the visitor.

It was late autumn, the night in the mountains was particularly cold, the people who came wore old cloaks, shrunk and stood under the shaking lights, and when they saw her, they called out embarrassedly: "Song!" and quickly pulled the boy on his side: "This child, haven't you been arguing about missing your brother, your brother is here, call quickly!"

Wei Yuan listened to his mother's words, and shouted timidly: "Brother!" One Wei Ji was very different from his impression, and he didn't dare to admit it; second, he didn't understand, obviously he was a sister, why did his mother have to let him call her "brother".

This scene is so similar to before, but it is different after all - in that life, she preconceived that Yu Jiang was a pure and virtuous person, but just a few days before in this life, Yu Jiang's wishful thinking failed, and she tore her face like thunder......

Wei Jian smiled, presumably the second uncle went back to tell Yu Jiang, saying that she still had to "think about it", Yu Jiang was worried that she would give a negative answer after thinking about it, or simply thought that she was taking the handle, and took the opportunity to force Yu Jiang to take the initiative to bow his head and admit his mistake, no matter what, Yu Jiang, who was anxious and red-eyed, gritted his teeth and softened with his cheeks.

"Ge, no matter what I do, but your father loves you the most after all. He pushed Wei Yuan out again: "You and Ah Yuan have such a good relationship, he is only seven years old, so young, in case he doesn't ......" He couldn't continue, and began to wipe his tears.

Wei Jian also saw that Yu Jiang's eyes were indeed very swollen, and when he thought about it, he also knew that the noble lady who used to be lavish in the past couldn't even make up the monthly money given to the slaves, and the mother family had that kind of attitude, in case her father had three longs and two shorts, let alone planning a splendid future for Wei Yuan, I was afraid that she didn't even know how to raise him.

Looking at Wei Yuan's red nose again, Wei Ji sighed, called the steward on the side, and asked him to go back to find a thick cloak, the main person acted quickly, and soon brought a cloak with a fur edge, Wei Yu put it on Wei Yuan, and then touched his head: "Go back, I'll leave tomorrow morning!"

Hearing her words, Wei Yuan threw himself into her arms, hugged her waist tightly, and sobbed very quietly: "Second sister, you must bring your father back!"

Wei Jia nodded: "Well, it will be." ”

With her promise, the mother and son climbed into the carriage and went back.

Wei Jian also rushed to the manor, and when he was halfway there, he suddenly discussed with Pei Rang: "Brother, although I promised Yajia before that I would take her wherever I went, but you also know her physical condition, and she really can't stand the bumps, so I plan to leave her in the manor." ”

Pei Rang: "Huh?"

"So you stay too—stay and help me watch over her. ”

Pei Rang's answer was: Ride a horse and run away, ignore her.

He couldn't understand her worries, the manor itself was in the deep mountains that were easy to defend and difficult to attack, and soon after they bought it, the garrison personally laid a stone formation outside the entrance, not to mention ordinary bandits, even a specially trained army, and it was not easy to conquer there, so he felt that the garrison didn't want him to go, purely because he heard that the mountain range was dangerous, and he didn't plan to let him venture with her, but they had already made an oath in the bamboo forest, how could she say that it didn't count!

The aunt who adheres to the three obedience and four virtues, when she heard that Wei Jian decided to save her father, she couldn't refuse, but when she heard Wei Jia ask her to persuade Pei Rang to stay, she categorically refused - her husband and her son all died because of the protector, but she still did not change her original intention and sent her grandson to the little master......

Yajia didn't know how to hear about this, so she hugged her and didn't let go: "Song ...... Together...... It doesn't count......"

Although experiencing many times, the new separation is still so sad, Wei Jian looked away with difficulty, and saw the devouring Du who was rubbing her legs, with a flash of inspiration, pulled away Yajia, and pointed to the devouring du: "Yajia, you see, my favorite Yudu is still so young, if you take it away, it is very likely to make it sick and die, so I entrust it to you, you must take good care of it, let it grow up quickly......"

A * soup is poured down, and the buds of the child's heart are blinded.

After coaxing Yajia to sleep, Wei Jia gathered people, except for a few who often went in and out with her, the rest either stayed to guard the manor or went with her to save her father according to their wishes, but they never saw Pei Rang.

The night passed, got up early and set off, Pei Rang was already waiting outside the stone formation, he saw her, lowered his head, and whispered: "Grandma said, if I go back like this, she won't recognize me as a descendant of the Pei family!"

Wei Jia looked at the dew on his forehead that was shining crystal clear by the morning sun, what else could she say about this piece of wooden stake?

then joined Wei Yong, although it was just dawn, her second uncle arrived early in the morning and came to see her off.

Wei Jian cautiously resigned from him, and then the group set off on horseback, and not long after stepping on the official road, they encountered the old man again - the old man in the previous life!

Count silently, Qiao Chu, Bu Ming, Wen Zhu, Yan Mei, Mo Song...... Twelve people, one is not many, they died to protect her in their previous lives, but in this life, they have been led by a certain thief early on.

Riding on a tall horse, lined up, blocking the road ahead?

When they got closer, Qiao Chu came out and said, "Wei Jialangjun!"

Wei Jian knew that this former good brother had already replaced Ma Wei and others as Sima Run's confidant, and he replied with a return gift: "Manager Qiao." ”

Qiao Chu smiled awkwardly: "It's just a messenger." He drove his horse over and said bluntly: "His Royal Highness has been awarded the title of General Pingxi!"
