Chapter 271: Far Away

Chu Yueqing stared at him for a long time. And Xuanyuan Hao straightened up and looked up at her. The two of them seemed to be stating, motionless.

At this moment, it was as if the raindrops outside the window had slowed down the speed of dripping, and the rhythm of the whole world had slowed down.

"He knows you, but you haven't met him. It was all a long time ago, uh, we'll talk about it later. Xuanyuan Hao said slowly.

Hearing Xuanyuan Hao say this, Chu Yueqing became even more suspicious. But seeing Xuanyuan Hao's slightly tired expression, she didn't ask again, nor did she say that several of that person's subordinates sneaked into her room in the middle of the night and turned over her baggage.

"When do you expect to go to Gangnam?"

"After the household department checks, I'm afraid it's going to be the end of the month."

"Well," Chu Yueqing said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid the weather has become colder, let Xiao Xiangzi prepare more clothes, and it's best to bring winter ones as well." ”

"The winter in Jiangnan won't be too cold," Xuanyuan Hao said: "And this time, I went with the soldiers who escorted the grain and grass, and it was probably winter when I arrived in Jiangnan." ”

Chu Yueqing stood in place and was stunned, and hesitated: "Then when the New Year is over...?" ”

β€œβ€¦ It should be in Gangnam. ”

……

On the fourth day, the rain in the capital gradually became lighter, and it was foggy all day, with a drizzle wafting in the air, and in addition to the open shops on Xuanwu Street, there were many small vendors with stalls.

On the morning of the fifth day, the sky stopped raining, but it was still overcast, and the people silently prayed in their hearts that the rain would not fall again.

It seems that the heavens heard the hearts of the people, and at noon the dark clouds gradually drifted away, and wisps of golden light came out of the clouds, and the wisps of golden light gradually rendered the whole sky, and the sun came out of the sky and hung in the sky, covering the land with golden light.

The rain stopped completely.

Everyone's faces were beaming.

And for the shopkeeper of Yunlaiju, the happy event is not only this. The Jianghu people who had occupied almost the entire third floor of him checked out, and even the four young people from other places had to check out.

It just so happened that this year's tea merchants gradually rushed to the capital from all over the country. A large stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

Beijing.

He stood with his hands in his hands: "It's sunny, what about people?" ”

The three people who followed behind him had a trace of cold sweat oozing from their foreheads at the same time. After a moment of silence, a small man was pushed out. He put his right hand on his left chest, bowed his head, and said, "High priest, the county lord said that she would not leave until that incident happened." ”

"yes, how long will it take for it to happen?" His voice was indifferent, and he didn't seem to be angry because of it.

Seeing this, the little man said boldly: "The county lord said that it will break out at the end of this month at the latest. ”

"At the end of the month?" Ji chuckled: "Then these 100 soldiers are going to camp in the suburbs of Beijing?" ”

The little man whispered, "Let's... You can go back to the inn and continue to stay..."

That being said, the little man didn't have the slightest confidence. The high priest was moody, and if he was slightly dissatisfied, he would turn people into Gu sacrifices.

Nanling has a kind of Gu called Cannibal Gu. As the name suggests, it is to live by cannibalism. Most of the people who usually become in their wombs are death row inmates in large prisons.

Cannibal Gu eats one person a year, which is extremely difficult to cultivate, and there are only three surviving in Nanling now. They eat one person a month, and they choose who they eat.

Thinking of this, the little man's lower limbs trembled, raised the corner of his eye, and secretly glanced at the back of the high priest.

"How long have you been with me?" asked.

The little man was the target, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "My subordinates have been on errands in the outer hall for five years, and the inner hall has been less than eight months. ”

"It's been so long, don't you have a little brain?" Ji suddenly turned to look at him: "This is not Nanling, and the Great Qi Emperor is not a waste." If we stay any longer, these 100 soldiers will be arrested sooner or later. ”

But they... It's all dressed up as a big Qi Jianghu person. Target thought, but didn't dare to say it.

Looking at his expression, he said quietly: "Don't follow me in the future." ”

With that, he walked up to the hundred soldiers.

They are in a mountain forest on the outskirts of Beijing, which is inaccessible and relatively safe.

Ji said: "I think you also know that the county lord insists on not following us until the end of the month. And the more we stay in Nanling, the more risk there is. Where to go, think for yourselves. After thinking about it, go and sue SΓΉ Ziger. ”

The voice was low, the tone was steady and unfazed, and the seemingly light words came to the soldiers' ears clearly in every word.

Ziger stood behind the target, patted him on the shoulder, and walked towards the soldiers with a sigh.

After about half an hour, Ziger walked to the side of the man and said, "High priest, the results have come out." ”

"How many people are staying?" asked.

"Thirty-seven people stayed, and sixty-three chose to go back." Zigger Dao.

"What about you?"

Ziger was stunned for a moment and knelt down on one knee: "Ziger swears to follow the high priest to the death."

After a moment of silence, he said, "Let the thirty-seven people lead the target to wait for the county lord here, and you will follow me back to Nanling." ”

… In a blink of an eye, it was August 28, and on this day, Xuanyuan Hao came back from the next court and ordered Xiao Xiangzi to pack up. Chu Yueqing came out of the room, and when he saw this, he hurriedly asked, "Has the household department checked out?" ”

"Well," Xuanyuan Hao's expression was stern: "A total of 26 prefectures and counties in the south of the Yangtze River have been hit by disasters, including 17 droughts and 9 floods. ”

Xuanyuan Hao said as he walked: "The nine places are still the dams that were just repaired in the spring of last year, and I will go this time, I will find out who is responsible for the repair." Speaking of this, Xuanyuan Hao couldn't help but be angry: "Most of them are flies and dogs, and for the sake of money, they don't care about the lives of the people." ”

"Don't be angry," Chu Yueqing persuaded: "The matter has come to this point, it is important to bring them to justice as much as possible, when will you leave?" ”

"I'll leave tomorrow."

"Tomorrow is so soon, can you pack up your things?" Chu Yueqing said that he was in a hurry to go out, and wanted to help Xiao Xiangzi clean up together.

Xuanyuan Hao grabbed her: "Fortunately, I have already started to prepare, you don't have to worry about this." ”

The next morning, the night had not yet ended.

Chu Yueqing and Xuanyuan Hao had already gotten up. The carriage drove coldly on the street, and Chu Yueqing said: "On the carriage behind, there are a lot of pastries that you love to eat, which I prepared with Qianying yesterday." Fortunately, Xiao Xiangzi can still go with you, so let him set up the carriage and follow you behind the team. ”

Xuanyuan Hao nodded and said, "I'll finish eating." You don't have to worry, it's going to be fine. It's you, I've handed over those two secret guards to Zhang Yan, and I won't follow you anymore, if you go out, be more careful. ”

Leaving to say goodbye is the most difficult.

Chu Yue Qingqiang looked at the team that was gradually moving away, and his nose was sour.
