Gu Xunfang slowly retreated, only to see a few suspicious bamboo sticks appear in the river, slowly approaching the shore.

Someone behind him hit him hard, a panicked cook screamed and ran towards the river, Gu Xunfang instantly shouted, "Come back!" ”

As soon as the words fell, it was too late, and I heard a few noises, the river suddenly exploded, and several thieves jumped out of the water, the cook only felt a flower in front of her, a pain in her chest, and blood splashed in an instant, and a thief's scimitar had already slashed the cook, pushing her into the river with one hand, and soon disappeared in front of everyone.

"Murder! Kill! The cook lady next to Chunxiang only shouted twice, and then fainted in fright.

"Auntie?! Ma'am! ”

"Girl, where to look!" Gu Xunfang retreated to Chunxiang's side, looking at the few thieves who jumped out of the river with vigilant eyes. It turned out that those bamboo sticks were the things that these bandits used to breathe when they dived into the water.

"My lord, you ...... escape first" However, before the words were spoken, Gu Xunfang immediately stretched out his hand and grabbed Chunxiang and fled towards the rear, but he got into the tent at once, and quickly found the burden of the two people.

"Where are you going?! It's important to save your life! As soon as Gu Xunfang saw Chunxiang's eyes, she knew what the other party was thinking.

“…… Haruka can't see death without help. ”

"Heh, this is what your young lady taught you? There are so many soldiers out there, when do you need to save them?! ”

Boom Boom Boom ...... The ground shook violently, and the constant explosions seemed to block them from the outside world, and the screams and screams were endless. Chunxiang was a little hesitant in her eyes, she was thinking about what she would do if Miss was by her side at the moment?

"The county lord of Yongji will not die in vain, go!"

Gu Xunfang slashed open the tent with a sharp dagger, and rushed out with Chunxiang, who had not yet reacted.

There was a strong smell of sulfur all around, and the billowing white smoke blurred their vision, Chunxiang never knew that Gu Xunfang could run so fast, and in the blink of an eye, the two of them had already disappeared into the woods.

A quick flash flashed around her, and Haruka turned her head and could only see the smoke that kept rushing into the sky.

There were bandits who dared to sneak attack the team of the Marquis of Changding, Chunxiang only felt that her heart was beating hard, with a faint uneasiness, and it was too unrighteous to flee like this. But......

"Where is this?"

I don't know how long it took, Gu Xunfang finally stopped, they were far away from the battlefield of the fight, and they were in the dense woods at this time.

"Those bandits kill people without blinking, and even the imperial court team dares to attack, which shows how murderous they are, and when it falls at night, we will go back and see." Those explosions were only afraid that they would be very unfavorable to the team of the Marquis of Changding, Gu Xunfang didn't know the ability of those bandits, but he would never allow his life to be threatened.

At least, that's what he can do.

Haruka thought about it and felt that it was really undeserved, but ...... She knew that she couldn't convince Gu Xunfang, and she couldn't leave him here alone, so she wandered a little anxiously at the moment.

"Let's go, Lord Ben is hungry."

What the?! Chunxiang obviously couldn't react, Gu Xunfang had already stood up straight, "There is a small river here, there should be a village, let's look for it, and find a place to settle down for the time being." ”

He looked as if nothing had happened, and he had already taken the lead.

I don't know why, Chunxiang only felt that the man in front of her was a little strange, was this the Gu Xunfang she knew? She reacted suddenly, from Fang Cai to now, his appearance was so rational, and he didn't see any trace of panic. Although he was afraid of death, he ...... Chunxiang had to admit that maybe Gu Xunfang's choice was right.

She must keep this life in order to return to Miss's side, which is more valuable than dying here.

The thorns along the way, the two never stopped, until the man in front of them excitedly shouted, "Found it!" Ben-sama is so clever, there really is a village here! ”

They stood on a small hillside, and when they saw the Zhuangzi that was close together not far away, the two couldn't help but look at each other and smile, they were exhausted from running all the way, and they could find a good home to fill their stomachs at this time.

"There's a trail down here!" Gu Xunfang pointed to the inconspicuous path that he had just discovered, and Chunxiang nodded heavily.

Soon, however, they discover something odd.

The entrance to the village was in front of them, but the two of them stopped at the same time, and the sight in front of them made them have a bad premonition in their hearts.

The dilapidated grass house, the spark that has not been completely extinguished, the messy hay has dried up blood everywhere, Chunxiang suddenly covered her mouth and nose, and unconsciously pulled Gu Xunfang's sleeve with her other hand.

"What......" He frowned unhappily, and the next second, Gu Xunfang's eyes changed.

In the field not far away, there were several men lying on their backs, but soon, they found more corpses, old people and children, women and strong men, and there seemed to be no living people here.

Gu Xunfang looked at the empty chicken pen and pigsty, as well as the looted house, "It seems that these bandits found this village earlier than us. ”

"It's so cruel! It's just a matter of ransacking the village, why do you want to kill people......" Haruka couldn't bear to look at it anymore, just now she clearly found several young children, such a small child will not let go, those bandits are still inhumane?!

"You girl, you are stupid in the Hou Mansion, in such a remote place, the court can't control it, and it's normal for bandits to run rampant, if you're afraid, it's too late to go back now."

The last thing Chunxiang wants is to be looked down upon by Gu Xunfang so much, what does it mean to be stupid in the Hou Mansion? She also had a hard time! Before she was sold to the Hou Mansion, she was also displaced from her father......

"What do you see? Let's find out if there's anything to eat, right? Otherwise, Ben-sama will be too hungry to walk! When the time comes, I'll have you to go back! ”

"......" Chunxiang really underestimated Gu Xunfang's brazen Cheng Dù, and immediately ignored him, but tried her best to avoid those corpses, and began to look for food in every thatched hut.

"Is anyone there?" She looked at the hidden door, and there was some hope in her heart, maybe there would be survivors? Gently pushed open the door and stepped in, but the scene in front of him made Haruka no longer in the mood.

I saw a family of three sitting around the table, and there were a few light side dishes on it, but they were lying on the table together, and the blood in the ground had dried up. Haruka's eyes were firmly fixed on the girl who looked about seven or eight years old, and tears could not stop drawing out of her eyes.

When they died, they were enjoying their families, and it is conceivable that they were killed in a sudden situation.

"What's wrong with you?"

Outside, Gu Xunfang saw Chunxiang standing there dumbfounded and didn't move, so he stepped in suspiciously, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he immediately understood, but turned around indifferently, "Let's go, it's been so long and there is no help." ”

Chunxiang's shoulders trembled slightly, and Gu Xunfang didn't tear her down.

Reaching out to wipe the tears from her face, Haruka took a deep breath, "The slave understands. ”

Gu Xunfang seemed to want to give Chunxiang a little time to calm down, so she retreated alone and looked for the next grass house.

"I actually grabbed nothing! If you let Lord Ben meet it, you will definitely look good at these greedy bandits! After some searching, Gu Xunfang clenched his fist hatefully, the only thing left in this village was those few grains of coarse rice in the rice jar, right?

Click.

"Who?!"

This subtle sound made Gu Xunfang suddenly vigilant, and he held the dagger in his hand tightly, "Who is there!" Come out quickly, Lord Ben promises not to kill you! ”

"Really, really?"

A Nuo Nuo's voice came, Gu Xunfang frowned, he finally found the source of the sound, only to see a pile of hay trembling slightly, and then, a millet cylinder rolled out, the white little hand trembled out from it, the poor little face was full of tears, and he poked his head out hesitantly.

Gu Xunfang slowly put down the dagger in his hand, and saw a girl clumsily get out of the rice tank, "Really, really won't kill Ling'er?" ”

She looked at Gu Xunfang timidly, her big watery eyes flashing with fear.

“…… Well. ”

The girl was about six or seven years old, and she wore a silver bracelet on her wrist, which showed that her parents doted on her.

I'm afraid, she's the only survivor of this village, right? Putting the child in a millet jar and covering it with hay saved her life.

Then the couple he saw at the door embraced each other and died, I am afraid that they are the parents of this child.

"Big brother, you, are you also here to rob our things?"

“…… No, I just happened to be passing by. ”

Gu Xunfang's answer relieved the innocent little girl, she stood up tremblingly, but because she had squatted for too long, her legs were numb and painful, and her eyes instantly turned red again, "Mother......"

Her gaze stayed on the wide open door, Gu Xunfang's eyes changed, and she had already stepped out to block her way.

"What's your name?"

The little woman raised her head suspiciously, looking at Gu Xunfang's good-looking face, her mother said that a good-looking person will not have a bad heart, so this big brother should be a good person.

"Ling'er, Su Ling'er."

Ling'er? Pretty cute name.

"Your parents went somewhere else, let the big brother tell you that you don't have to wait for them, do you have any other relatives?"

"Relatives?" She didn't seem to understand what relatives meant.

At this moment, Gu Xunfang immediately found that she seemed to be in trouble, everyone in this village was dead, could she still expect anyone to take care of her?

"Your Excellency?" Haruka's voice came from outside.

Gu Xunfang's eyes were a little hesitant, in his opinion, this little girl who has no relatives and no reason with him will only become a drag oil bottle, so it is better to leave her here......
