Chapter 66: Returning on a Stormy Night

Since leaving Huaishuo and taking the Wu brothers with him, Pan Zihan chased all the way north, hoping to rush to Tingzhou before the Golden Horde and give the Golden Horde a big surprise when the time comes.

Since it was in the direction of Tingzhou, they took the official road on the west bank of Luoshui, and they never thought that it would be the same as the previous route of the Golden Horde.

The three of them rode horses, naturally faster than the army of 10,000 people, not to mention that if the horses were not supported, they would have forcibly changed horses along the way, but it was just a matter of throwing more silver taels, where did it matter whether others agreed or not.

Walking all the way, without resting halfway, Pan Zihan's eyes were bloodshot, and the Wu brothers next to him were okay, after all, they were cultivators.

"Young master, do you want to rest for a while. Looking at the big head that was a little distracted from fatigue, Wu Shangyuan suggested.

"Out of the way. Pan Zihan replied, and then sent the wine bag hanging on his body to his mouth and took a sip. The gallop along the way relied on the support of this mouth.

The front is about to arrive in Tai'an Town, and after staying in Luoshui, it is not far from Tingzhou. Near noon, Pan Zihan and the other three finally entered Tai'an Town, and hurriedly found a place to rest, let the horses eat some forage, and eat something to fill their stomachs.

Tai'an Town, which had just been frightened by the war, had a lot fewer streets, and the brave ones came out to see the situation, and the timid ones still closed their doors. The place where Pan Zihan and they settled was a tea shop, and it seemed that the shopkeeper was very bold, and the enemy dared to open the door as soon as the soldiers and horses left.

If Duanmu Xu is here, he will definitely be surprised, this shopkeeper is not only bold, but also very young, and his identity has changed from a guy to a shopkeeper. If Pan Zihan hadn't been too drunk that day, he might have remembered.

"Why are there so few people on this street, and they are still in a mess. "I didn't keep up with the Golden Horde, I must have passed by here," Pan Zihan asked.

"Yesterday the army of the Golden Horde passed through our town, and it scared people to death. Everyone ran and fled, and this was a lot more deserted. The shopkeeper replied.

"Oh? When was that?"

"It was evening, and there was a battle on the Tai'an Bridge at that time, as if our gods on Zhongnan Mountain came down to teach these people a thousand cuts. The young shopkeeper replied.

"How many people are there, what happened in the end?" Pan Zihan's heart suddenly lifted. The immortals on Zhongnan Mountain, it is likely that they are the real people of Wunian.

"At that time, we dared to take a closer look, but later the Golden Horde crossed the Tai'an Bridge and camped on the east bank, as if they had left again in the middle of the night. As for those immortals, I don't know where they went?"

"Where did the Golden Horde go?" Pan Zihan asked.

"I don't know too much, but in the morning there were some officers and soldiers from the town who seemed to live in the mountains, and some officers and soldiers who came from the east, and finally they went north along the west bank of Luoshui, and a group went north along the east bank of Luoshui. ”

"The officers and soldiers who came from the east have all gone to the north?" Pan Zihan originally wanted to go to Tingzhou to report the news, but it seemed that there was no need for it. But these are all going north, and presumably the Golden Horde is going north. The Golden Horde really had no intention of attacking Bingzhou, so why did they go north? Zhiyan and the Golden Horde must have been the ones who fought against the Golden Horde on the Tai'an Bridge, so where did they go? I don't think they would fall into the hands of the Golden Horde.

"With the strength of Wunian Zhenren, it shouldn't be a problem to escort two or three people away. Pan Zihan asked the Wu brothers beside him.

"With them to protect you, ordinary arrows can't get close, and ordinary soldiers have no problem, if you want to leave, it shouldn't be too difficult. Wu Shangyuan estimated the strength of these people and replied.

Could it be that these people ran to Tingzhou, and then there will be officers and soldiers rushing over from Tingzhou this morning? Pan Zihan thought and asked the young shopkeeper, "How many officers and soldiers are there from the east in the morning?"

"I'm a common man who knows so much, but I guess there are more than a thousand people. The shopkeeper replied truthfully.

There was no expected army, which made Pan Zihan frown. Could it be that the imperial court really transferred all the men and horses in the direction of merging states according to Shi Jiwei's military report?

With a heavy heart, Pan Zihan couldn't sit still, gave the shopkeeper some more silver taels, and left on horseback with the Wu brothers.

Looking at Pan Zihan and the others in the distance, this little ginger who had sent a letter to Duanmu Xu went back to the room to clean up and went out on the road.

......

At that time, how romantic the night run with Brother Fan was, and how depressed was the feeling of being thrown down halfway, Pan Zhiyan had no choice but to walk to the town after stomping her feet hard in the night. The night was dark, and unfortunately it began to rain, so Pan Zhiyan walked towards the house where the lantern was still lit at the entrance of the town.

Knocking on the door, Pan Zhiyan was anxious to find a place to shelter from the rain, and she was in a bad mood when she was driven off the horse, so she started a little heavier.

Maybe she knocked loudly enough, or maybe she was lucky enough that someone would open the door after a while.

An old lady opened the door and asked, "Girl, is there anything wrong with this late hour?"

"This lady, I was passing by here, and it was raining, and I wanted to borrow a place to shelter from the rain. Pan Zhiyan thought about going to Tingzhou after avoiding the rain.

"Just you?" The lady also stretched out her head to look out, in the middle of the night, a young girl braved the rain to spend the night, very strange.

"yes, it's just me. After dawn, I left. It won't bother for long. ”

When the lady was still hesitating, maybe Pan Zhiyan knocked on the door too loudly just now, and a young man's voice came from the main room, "Aunt Liu, who is it?"

"Young master, a girl has come to spend the night. ”

"Then let the family come in quickly. ”

Since she heard the young master's order, this Aunt Liu led Pan Zhiyan into the courtyard and walked along the corridor to a side room. "The girl will spend the night here. ”

Pan Zhiyan is nothing more than finding a place to shelter from the rain, and by the way, suppress the anger in her stomach, damn Brother Fan is too bad to pity the jade.

The oil lamp in this room was always on, and Pan Zhiyan leaned on the bed. Thinking about how to wait for Tingzhou, how to let Brother Fan know that he was angry, apologize to himself, and think that Luojia and them should also leave safely in Tai'an Town.

With so many thoughts, Pan Zhiyan really couldn't sleep.

It is precisely because of this oil lamp that has been lit that not only Aunt Liu is not at ease, but even the people in the main room are not at ease. This courtyard is not big in the town, so you can see the lights of the wing rooms from the main house.

Pan Zhiyan, who was leaning on the bed, heard the sound of footsteps coming from the courtyard, and became slightly nervous.
