Chapter 157, all the way to the west is uninhabited, followed by robbing corrupt officials

Out of Fang County, the sky was still bright, because Li Dalang and Li Erlang changed into women's clothes, so several people did not hide anymore, and the snow wolf explored the road in front, and rushed all the way west to Changli County, the seat of Changli County.

The group went out of Fang County, and when they saw that there was no one on the road, Li Dalang asked the doubts in his heart, "Xiao Wu, where did the hairpin come from?" I haven't seen it before. ”

"When I went into the city before, I was looking for someone to fight, and I thought that my brothers would give it to my sister-in-law as a dowry when they were married, but now it's good, it's all filial piety and official differences." Situ Yan pretended to be a pity, this was also the excuse she just thought of, she couldn't use Situ Wan as an excuse every time, and if she deceived a few people twice, she was afraid that she would become suspicious.

Li Dalang didn't expect that the little sister had even thought about these for them, and he didn't know whether to be happy or sad for a while. Xiaomei is really afraid that they are only brothers, and he is afraid that he will never have the opportunity to tie the knot with Xiaomei in this life. The more I thought about it, the more sad I became, and I lost the interest in asking again when I lowered my head.

Li Erlang felt uncomfortable in his heart, but he had long known that he was not worthy of his little sister, although he felt uncomfortable, but he was not as sad as Li Dalang.

San Lang was just secretly surprised in his heart, he felt that he was still young and still had a chance to fight. Shiro was a little slower to react to this kind of thing, thinking that it was the eldest brother's business, and he hadn't done the crown salute yet, and it was still very early.

Several people had their own concerns, but it was a lot quieter for a while, and after an hour, it was already dark, Situ Yan casually found a place to rest for a while, and a few people drank some water, mainly to feed carrots and eat some fine grass.

After three days in a row, at dawn this day, several people happened to walk to the edge of a forest and drove the mule cart into the forest. Compared with the sadness of three days ago, a few people were only busy hurrying at this time, but they forgot about the discomfort at that time.

"Xiao Wu, why is this Changli County so far away, we have been walking here for three days, and we haven't even seen a shadow?"

"Fourth brother, don't worry, if it weren't for the light snow that fell before, we would have been able to arrive tomorrow, but at this time, I'm afraid it will take another two days to arrive."

As a few people were talking, they heard a human voice from outside the forest, and they were so startled that they were busy and listened with their ears pricked up.

"Uncle, we just ran away, I'm afraid that Xiangping County will not be able to hold it?"

"'Teeth are less sharp, knowledge is shallow', even if tens of thousands of people are buried in the county, they can't hold it, what kind of auxiliary general, they will only talk on paper, and point out randomly, Xuanwu County was attacked by Hu Zi in just a few days, and Hu Zi will kill people when he sees them after entering the city, if he doesn't run, do you want us to bury him?"

"But if the court knows that my uncle abandoned the city and fled, is it hard to guarantee that he will not issue a decree to discuss the crime?"

"I'm not afraid of this county order, what are you afraid of, I'm afraid that the imperial court is busy dealing with the Wu State in the south and the Shu State in the west, and also guarding against the Turks in the north, and the court has already become a mess, how can you take care of us." This time, I brought out all my belongings. Okay, this break has to start quickly, it's not peaceful here, if the Turks catch up, my county order all these years will be in vain. ”

"The county order has an order, rest for another quarter of an hour, and set off immediately."

"Yes."

Situ Yan couldn't see the number of people coming through the forest, but judging from the voice of his answer, there should be no less than 100 people, it seems that this Xiangping County Decree has brought out all the servants and officials in the house, and it sounds like there are voices of women and children.

Situ Yan felt a little itchy in her heart, "Ten years of Qing Governor's Mansion, 100,000 snowflakes of silver." "This Xiangping County Order can abandon the people of a city, it can be seen that he is a big corrupt official, maybe more than 100,000, and she is short of money in her hands. But now that it was daytime, she was not easy to move, so she only signaled Li Dalang and the others not to make a sound.

When these people were far away, they put the car on and followed far behind.

"Little Five, what are we doing with them?" San Lang also saw that Xiaomei deliberately followed these people in front of her.

"There are a lot of them, so it's just right for them to explore our way, and we can also travel more."

"That's a good idea."

"Second brother, you slow down, don't follow too closely, let them find out, but we don't have good fruit to eat."

"Okay." With the snow wolf exploring the way in front, a few people didn't need to follow to check closely, to know if the people in front had stopped to rest.

After following until night, the snow wolf ran back, and Situ Yan knew that these people must have set up camp and planned to rest.

Situ Yan first asked Li Dalang to drive the car to the forest on the side of the road, "Big brother, unload the car first!" We were really tired after a day and a night. ”

"The second brother will dig another stove, let's burn some hot food, and this body will be warm." Seeing that a few people were busy, Situ Yan took out the fine materials from the ring and fed the mules first. Only then did he take the snow wolf to the depths of the forest, and only told Li Dalang that he was going to make it convenient and pick up some firewood by the way. The four of them only told her to be careful, but they didn't care.

After entering the forest, he looked around, and then took out the bun from the ring and fed it to the snow wolf, "Snow wolf, you need to eat more, I will take you to make a small fortune tonight, which is faster than doing business to make money." ”

The snow wolf is also very psychic, wagging his tail in response, and Situ Yan who watched it was overjoyed. When it was over, Li Dalang and the others were also sleepy, and they all slept deeply, so Situ Yan quietly got up and took the snow wolf to the place where Ling'an was camped in Xiangping County. You can see the light of the fire from a distance, and several officials are chatting around the fire.

"Brothers, come and drink a few more sips, if you don't drink this on this cold day, where can you stand it!"

"It's still Brother Jiang's righteousness, and a few of us can follow Brother Jiang to suffer less crimes along the way."

"But it's not, you said that this county order was frightened by that beard, and even the city was gone, so that we couldn't even go home, and I don't know what happened to our home at this time?"

"What else can I do, when I go out, let my mother-in-law take the babies back to her parents' house, with my eldest brother taking care of it, it's not bad."

"Your brother is well arranged, I didn't even take care of my home before I went out, and I can't do it at this time!"

The one known as Brother Jiang, took a sip of wine, and reminded a few people in a suppressed voice, "Okay, don't be a girl, let the county order listen to it and have to be punished, although he escaped, but there are many families, we have to admit it." ”

Situ Yan approached lightly, because the fire was bright, but it seemed a lot darker around, her movements were light, the people were small, and several people didn't take the vigil seriously, so they didn't notice it at all.

Situ Yan first touched the edge of the main tent, listened to it, and saw that the people inside were sleeping, so she took out a dagger and cut a small opening in the tent, and looked inside, fortunately it was not very dark inside, and although a smoked cage with a charcoal fire was not very bright, it was still visible.

The tent is not big, it is obviously prepared temporarily, there are just a few people lying on the ground, Situ Yan carefully distinguished, and found the middle-aged man sleeping in the middle, although this person is wearing cotton clothes, but just looking at the figure of more than 200 catties, Situ Yan can conclude that this person must be the Xiangping County Order, at this time the county commander is sleeping soundly with a woman in her twenties in her arms.

Situ Yan smiled disdainfully, and glanced around the tent again, where several boxes were being placed, and a few maids were dozing off on the boxes.

Seeing that the people inside were asleep, Situ Yan opened a corner of the tent, slipped in, first touched the edge of the box, and helped the maid leaning on the box down, then directly put her left hand up, and silently said "Collect!" in her heart. One by one, the boxes were put into the rings.

After the six boxes in the tent were all put into the ring, he withdrew from the tent and touched the side of the carriage and horse, and there were still a few boxes of things on the frame. One by one, the things were collected, and then the snow wolf who gave her a lookout for the wind touched all the way back, and before the people returned to Li Dalang's side, they heard a noise behind them, thinking that someone had found that the things were lost.

hurriedly hurried a few steps, returned to Li Dalang's side, and didn't wake up a few people, even if they were discovered, these people couldn't take them, so many boxes of things, but they couldn't transport them.

Xiangping County ordered to get up in the middle of the night to relieve his hands, only to find that the boxes of a tent were all gone, shouting and shouting to catch the thief, and when he got to the outside of the tent, his heart was cold, nearly 100 people guarded, and all the belongings inside and outside the tent were lost.

fainted in a moment of anger, but it was still the master who pinched the middle of the person, and then he woke up in pain. The first thing I do when I wake up is to catch the thief. But where do the officials and servants who are guarding outside go to chase people, lead the horses and run for a while, check around, and make a mess. Even the footprints left by Situ Yan were covered by these people who were running around.

There were even a few timid people who said that they were haunted in the middle of the night, and that the things were stolen by the ghosts. In fact, all of them couldn't figure it out, especially the few who were on the night vigil, they didn't hear a sound at all, and even the horses and donkeys didn't bark, how could this thing not be easy to fly, not to mention that a few people didn't nap and slept. Except for the hauntings, they couldn't think of anyone who could transport the things away like this.

In fact, these people don't say it, and the county commander himself is somewhat convinced that it is haunted. But he is unwilling, the people's fat and ointment that he has scavenged for so many years are gone, where can he stand it, and how will he live in the future? He was really angry, and the county commander personally led people all the way west to Changli County, first, he was afraid that he would go back to find the Turkic soldiers who had killed him, and second, he felt that the person who stole his things must have gone west.

Situ Yan saw this person's timid heart, so she didn't wake up Li Dalang overnight and was busy on the road.

When it was dawn, there was no movement over there, so Situ Yan woke up the four of them, cooked something and ate them warmly, and then headed west.
