Chapter 217: Mistakenly Knocked

Hearing Thyme's question, Erdan said very calmly: "Actually, most of the people living near here are people from the Xiao family, and I don't know much about that small lake, but I once overheard the guards saying that the island is full of important people, and all the crocodiles in the lake are deliberately put in by the Xiao family, in fact, even if they live nearby, they don't dare to go to the lake at will." Unless it's someone who delivers food to a small island in the lake, who usually provokes a crocodile. ”

Thyme thought about what Erdan said, and everything could really be explained.

Just imagine, not to mention how dangerous this forest is, just now she encountered a big python, not to mention that there are so many crocodiles in the lake, all of them are fierce species.

Thyme has experienced the power of crocodiles in the lake, and I dare not say anything else, just the ferocity of crocodiles, no one can pass it.

And if you want to get to the center of the lake, you have to be a big boat.

Thinking of the big boat, Thyme looked at Erdan with some curiosity and asked, "I didn't see a big boat by the lake, what should Xiao Meng do if they want to go to the island?" ”

Erdan saw that Thyme was curious, so he told Thyme what he knew.

"Actually, it's like this, the boat is actually not big, and on weekdays, the people below will find a way to drag it into the woods, and then lock it to the boulder, and I heard that there are people guarding the ship. But I was also very curious, I didn't see the ship there for a few days, and it was very strange, and several of us discussed it together, but we didn't understand it, and we didn't ask about it later, after all, we shouldn't be in charge. ”

Thyme nodded. The pace quickened.

"Let's hurry up and catch up with Xiao Meng and them, by the way, now that it's safe, you'd better go separately with me, if Xiao Meng and them see you with me, it will inevitably cause trouble."

Thyme is afraid of being involved in two eggs.

Erdan smiled and said: "Doctor Baili, you don't have to worry about me, I also figured it out, I can't go back to Xiao Meng, if you don't save me, I'll die, rather than going back and being punished by Xiao Meng, it's better to leave here directly and find a place to live and live." During this time, I also made some money. Although it is not much, the stable silver is still available, Xiao Meng, if they can't find me, they will definitely think that I am dead, so in this way. I am no longer in their hearts. ”

Erdan is not selling. It's just a coolie who was caught. In fact, the silver is also given, but the silver given is not life to enjoy, that is another way.

Although I only met Erdan today. But Thyme still has a little bit of a good impression of Erdan, but the heart of defense is indispensable, Emperor Chongzhen is a lesson, Thyme stopped, looked at Erdan seriously and asked: "It's good that you decided like this, Erdan, do you know what it's like outside now?" How is the war between the two countries fought? ”

Thyme doesn't know how many days she's been here, things outside are changing day by day, and who knows what has become.

Erdan sighed and said: "Doctor Baili really doesn't hide that the situation outside is not good, at that time, the Western Xia and the Baili family were at war, and the Baili family was about to defeat the Western Xia, where the Xiahou general who knew that the Southern Xia suddenly turned against him and committed treason." ”

"What! What did you say? Thyme looked at Erdan in amazement and didn't believe it, and then Thyme asked in surprise: "What do you mean, can you explain a little bit clearly?" ”

Erdan seemed to be a little angry when he thought of this, looked in the direction of Nanxia and said: "Speaking of which, no one thought that the general of Zhenguo would be treasonous, and actually helped Xixia to attack the army of the Baili family together, and it suddenly became a three-legged situation, and the background of the Baili family is very good, although these soldiers are the first big battle, but the foundation is good, basically one enemy ten, but the casualties are a bit big, but it does not hurt the root." ”

Erdan said with some regret: "It's a pity that General Xiahou Chun used to be a good man I respected, but I didn't expect to do such an ungrateful thing this time, some of the soldiers at the border took refuge in the army of the Baili family, some followed Xiahou Chun, and some went directly back to their ancestral hometown, and did not plan to participate in the battle between the two countries. ”

Thyme was extremely surprised when she heard this, she thought that Xiahou Chun would do something unexpected, but she didn't expect him to temporarily defect, such an unkind and unjust thing, Xiahou Chun could do it, Thyme knew this, and she couldn't feel better.

"Then do you know where the current General Xiahou is?" Thyme's voice was full of anger, but she was also glad in her heart, glad that Chen'er would not be involved in this matter.

Erdan shook his head: "I don't know about this, I only know about General Xiahou's defection, and then I followed him into the mountain, as for the follow-up, I don't know." ”

Thyme asked this, and she had been a little nervous in her heart.

I can already see that there are households in front of me, and the crocodiles have not followed, and the thyme is not worried, there is no temptation of medicinal powder, those crocodiles will naturally leave here when they are full, and they are not afraid that those crocodiles will catch up.

The journey was uneventful.

After seeing the householder, Thyme stopped directly, and said to Erdan: "I'm here, there is no banquet in the world, so don't pass it here." ”

Thyme clenched her fist at Erdan.

Erdan's eyes were a little reluctant, and he hugged his fists and said to Thyme: "Doctor Baili is gracious, I Chen Erdan will remember your kindness, if you want to go out, it's best not to take this road, it's better to go out around this road, there are Xiao Meng's eyeliner everywhere, who knows if the people in this village will be Xiao Meng's people." ”

Thyme nodded, indicating that she knew.

Chen Erdan does things freely, not his mother-in-law, he said goodbye to Thyme and turned around and walked into the woods, Thyme saw that Erdan was far away, and he chose a way to leave in the forest.

Xiao Meng could only put it down temporarily.

Thyme stayed in the forest until the evening before going out, as if she had spared a long way, and the road was uneventful.

Thyme stood on top of the cliff and looked at the village in the distance, and let out a long sigh of relief.

As long as you can see people.

It's just that it's late now, and Thyme doesn't plan to go to the village to find a place to stay, but enters the space by herself.

It was still daylight in the space, and Thyme simply baked something for herself to eat, and then lay down to sleep.

I often live in the space, and the thyme is so good that I have prepared all the things I need, and the quilt is naturally a small thing.

Maybe I'm tired, this night thyme slept soundly.

When washing her face, Thyme looked at the reflection in the water, looked at the unfamiliar face in the water, and was satisfied, in fact, this face is more of a woman's face.

Putting down the crown on her head, Thyme quickly pulled her hair in a bun, since Xiao Meng already knew about her pretending to be a man, then she would pretend to be a woman again, so she didn't believe that Xiao Meng could see anything.

The face in the water looks delicate.

On the second day, Thyme didn't go to the village, and after thinking about it, Thyme decided to find her own way.

Following the avenue outside the village, Thyme walked for almost two hours before reaching the town.

After inquiring about thyme, she learned that Ziyin had arrived at the boundary of Nanxia by mistake.

Naturally, the mood was a little excited.

Since she knew that she was there, Thyme hired a carriage that day and went to the nearest town to the border barracks.

Soldiers in armor can be seen everywhere in the town.

Everyone's faces don't seem to be very good.

Thyme had to understand the situation first, walking on the street, Thyme looked at the listlessness on the soldier's face, and knew that the situation was really bad.

I went directly to the stall on the side of the road, and Thyme asked for a bowl of noodles and started eating.

The business of the noodle stall is not good, so when Thyme curiously asked about the border pass, the owner of the noodle stall also enthusiastically told Thyme.

The owner of the noodle stall is a man in his forties, with a lame leg, I heard that he also worked in the barracks in his early years, and later his leg was lame, and the people in his family died, so he simply stayed at the border and closed this noodle stall to make a living.

The owner of the noodle stall was curious when he saw the thyme, but he also explained carefully: "The border pass is not peaceful in the first place, and it has been even worse recently, see how the girl came to the border pass." ”

Thyme smiled helplessly and said, "I'm here to take refuge with my relatives, and there's no way to do it." ”

The owner of the noodle stall will also look at people, and when he saw that Thyme was embarrassed, he didn't look like he was telling a lie, so he comforted him: "Although there is chaos here, but fortunately, the army of the Baili family is strict, so you don't have to worry too much." ”

Thyme nodded with a smile and said gratefully: "Thank you for the reminder, by the way, wasn't the shopkeeper General Xiahou before, why is it now the Baili family?" ”

The owner of the noodle stall looked at Thyme with some worry and reminded: "Miss, you don't know that I remind you, if you can trust your uncle, don't mention the topic of General Xiahou in the future, hey, speaking of which, I used to be a soldier under General Xiahou for a few days, but I didn't expect him to be treasonous, Xixia has a hatred with us, and so many soldiers under General Xiahou have died in the hands of the Xixia people, but I didn't expect that everyone would exchange their lives for such a result, which is really chilling." ”

The noodle stall owner shook his head as he spoke, with a pity expression on his face, Thyme was silent for a moment, and then asked, "Then how is the situation of the Baili family's army now?" Now they are the only ones who can be regarded as defending the people of Southern Xia against the enemy army, which is really worrying. (To be continued......)
