The sedan chair came all the way to the outside of the county yamen and stopped at the main gate.

Huang Qi took the key from Ling Yun, opened the gate of the county office, and four sedan chair drivers carried the sedan chair into the lobby.

The sedan chair was placed on top of the lobby, and Huang Qi said: "Lord Wang, the sedan chair is placed here, and we will retire first." ”

Ling Yun fell asleep all the way, after all, he was overindulged during the day and never had dinner, so he couldn't help but feel a little top-heavy.

He gently placed the quilt wrapped in beauty on the bottom of the sedan chair covered with soft cushions, Lingyun yawned, groped to find the fire fold, lit the candle in the lobby, the candlelight illuminated the red sedan chair, came to the courtyard, closed the county government gate, and closed the heavy latch, and then returned to the lobby with peace of mind.

He slipped into the palanquin and tiptoed to uncover the quilt.

Zi Ruo was looking at each other angrily with a pair of black eyes, although he was through the quilt just now, he was still dishonestly touched by his salty pig hand in many places that should not be touched, and his heart was extremely angry, but he couldn't move, and he couldn't speak.

Ling Yun smiled and said, "Do you want to speak? You have to wait two hours, it's still early! By the way, are you hungry?"

Suddenly, he realized that Ziruo couldn't answer vocally, so he said, "If you want to eat, blink once, and if you don't want to eat, blink a hundred times." ”

Ziruo closed her eyes, tears couldn't help but flow out, thinking that when she recovered, even if she died together, she would definitely stab him a few times!

Ling Yun nodded and said, "If you close your eyes, then feed you a little spider, ant or something, the protein content is very high!"

Ziruo couldn't understand what he was talking about in the second half of the sentence, and when he heard that he was going to feed himself spiders, he quickly opened his eyes and glared at him angrily, afraid that he would really feed himself those disgusting things, and subconsciously wanted to close his mouth, but found that his mouth was numb and unable to move.

Ling Yun was afraid that she would recover and escape, so he stilled the world, and then walked to the backyard kitchen to prepare a dinner.

The kitchen of the county government is in the outermost yard on the left side of the backyard, there is an independent small door to enter and exit, usually the merchants on the street will take the initiative to send rice, flour, grain and oil, meat and vegetables, etc., which are changed every day and settled at the end of the month, which is very convenient.

In the past two days, although the county government was empty, the merchants still delivered goods every day, came in through the independent door, saw that the chef was not there, and helped throw away the stinky meat and clean the kitchen, otherwise the flies would give birth to maggots.

So the kitchen is still relatively clean, and during the day today, Ling Yun came to the kitchen to cook a meal with Xuezhu. Xuezhu has been pampered in the county government for a long time, and her parents didn't let her do dirty work when she was a child, so she didn't know anything about cooking, so she could only help light the fire on the side.

Ling Yun first went to the study to take a look at Xuezhu, opened the dark compartment, she was already lying in it and sleeping peacefully, there were a few boxes of open delicate snacks on the table, which should be her dinner.

When he came to the kitchen, Lingyun lit the candlestick, and then lit the stove, because the dishes sent by the merchants were all washed or even cut side dishes, and they could be poured and fried in oil, which was very convenient.

With a stick of incense, Lingyun made three dishes of side dishes, one meat and two vegetables, and the staple food was steamed steamed buns in the morning, which were steamed in a pot and taken out to make them soft and delicious.

Placing the food in the lunch box and lifting the lunch box, Ling Yun returned to the lobby.

The world returned to normal, Zi Ruo saw him come out with a lunch box of fragrant food in an instant, he was shocked, and then thought: "He has already planned to arrest me, and he didn't force me to obey him before, but it was just a way to attack the heart, and he wanted me to be completely obedient to him, and today's meals are ready, hmph, I'd rather starve to death than eat a bite of your food!"

Every time Ling Yun brought out a dish from the lunch box, he would turn it around under the tip of Ziruo's nose, the aroma would penetrate into her nose, and Ziruo's stomach would growl.

Ling Yun smiled and said, "The body is quite honest!"

Ziruo was extremely ashamed, closed his eyes, and did not want to open them no matter how he tempted.

Ling Yun said: "I said, I don't like to force others, since you don't eat it, then I'm not welcome." He raised his chopsticks, was so hungry that he began to gobble up.

Ziruo was lying in the sedan chair, and couldn't help but regret why she was so willful! So much so that she was caught lying here and humiliated by this stinky man, it was really self-inflicted!

On that day, a group of more than ten people came to the Lanjiang River, the river is wide and deep, and it is impossible to cross the river without taking a boat.

It turned out that the border guards had already received a letter that an important fugitive was about to cross the Lanjiang River and go to South Burma on the other side, so they smashed all the boats that had traveled nearly 100 miles up and down.

Strictly order the surrounding people not to go into the water! Those who go into the water will be decided!

Everyone is helpless, if you can't cross the river, staying here for a long time is tantamount to sitting still, to the east is the sea, a group of people can only go west, that is countless mountains and mountains of 100,000 mountains.

When he was about to leave the realm of Xianmen, a huge barrier in front of him was in front of him, which was Zhennan Xiongguan!

The pass is built between two high mountains, cutting off the road to the west, if you want to cross the pass, you can only get off the horse and walk, climb over the mountains and mountains, leaving the horse is no less than cutting off your legs, and the pursuers will chase after you immediately.

Fortunately, a local Jianghu person got the information and came to the rescue, this person is in the Xianmen area, known as the chivalrous name, known as "Nanguan Gong" Ding Zizhen, leading them to hide in the 100,000 mountains.

There is a village in the mountain, called "Shenlong Village", there is only one way up the mountain, the stone walls on both sides of the mountain road are as high as dozens of zhang, and the middle width can only allow one person to pass, it can really be said that a husband is not open!

The owner of Shenlong Village is named Wei Huanlong, the rivers and lakes are nameless, he has been in the army for many years when he was young, retired due to injury, and later gathered local hooligans and scoundrels to stand on his own mountain, and became the owner of the village with thousands of bandits, and Ding Zizhen has a good relationship, two people are black and white, they have been friends for many years, and they have been friends for many years.

Ding Zizhen's ancestor was the governor of Zhennan in the former dynasty, and received the emperor's grace, to his generation, although he did not worry about food and clothing, and was rich in a place, but he missed the glory of his ancestors, missed the kindness of the previous dynasty, and he was always righteous, and he heard that the Hong family was wronged for no reason and was persecuted, and he was very sympathetic, so he was willing to come forward to rescue the young master Hong.

Wei Huanlong is different, he is playing another idea, he is a big bandit who has failed to suppress bandits many times in the imperial court, if he can catch Young Master Hong this time and hand it over to the imperial court, he will not only be able to recruit An, but also get a rich reward, killing two birds with one stone, so he pretended to welcome the group up the mountain.

Halfway up the mountainside, Shenlong Village has several strongholds, digging deep trenches, high stone platforms, forming a number of interconnected cantonment places, and a large amount of food and drinking water can also be hoarded in the fortress, which is also the reason for the failure of many times to suppress bandits.

A group of people and horses can only walk here, and then the road up the mountain is steep and narrow, and you can only go up on foot.

Zhao Weisong whispered to everyone: "This place is called Shenlong Village, it is really a nest of bandits, we must be more cautious, bandits and others, do not abide by the three outlines and five constants, and are also rude, righteous and shameless, they may betray us at any time, everyone be careful!"

Everyone nodded, especially Mrs. Zhao, the attendants who were born and died side by side along the way actually became the spy of the government, fortunately they were discovered early, otherwise they would have become prisoners and ghosts!

These renegade attendants, although some of them were arrested and threatened because of their families, and there are also many people who are greedy for life and afraid of death, and who betray their friends to seek glory, which makes Mrs. Zhao still shudder when she thinks about it!

Ding Zizhen's martial arts are low, but he is bold and well-versed in the world, and he also knows that it is the next step to lead them to Shenlong Village, but it is also a helpless move, and he told him before he came: "My brother, for the sake of my thin face, I will never betray you, but this is only an expedient measure, not for a long time, you still have to plan early!"

At the moment of entering the mountain, Zhao Weisong saw that the mountain road here was steep and difficult to attack, so he changed his mind.

He secretly made up his mind that a small bandit den may not be the foundation for the restoration of the country!

I think at the beginning, Han Gaozu Liu Bang was only a pavilion chief, Mangdang Mountain was the king, Uncle Liu Huang founded Shu Han, but a vendor weaving mats and selling shoes, Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang was also a beggar when he was young, today I can be here to restore my great Qi, even if it is a bandit village, it will be passed on in the future!
