At first, Man Yun was also frightened by his own thought of "escaping" for no reason, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt more and more that it was possible, you must know that the person who borrowed the news was a thief and a Taoist priest, and it was right to think more about the bad things that came out of him.

The dripping glass eyes glanced at Mother Zhu, and Mother Zhu grabbed the collar of the forgotten words consciously. The little Taoist priest who was so angry that he wanted to leave after passing the word but was dragged by the fat woman was chattering with dissatisfaction in his mouth.

The alley where the three of them are located is a wall between two courtyards, and there are small corner doors open not far away, which is not suitable for questioning. Zhou Manyun looked around with some embarrassment, raised his head and looked at Zhu's mother for help.

Mother Zhu smiled, with a big hand like a fan, holding Zhou Manyun with one hand and Xiaodao Tong with the other, and took the two out of the alley and walked forward.

In Zhou Manyun's surprised gaze, Zhu's mother let go of her hand and knocked on the door of a house at the mouth of the alley, but her other hand was still clasped tightly and forgot to let go.

The door creaked open a crack, Zhu's mother's eyes glanced at her, and motioned to Zhou Manyun, who was standing in front of her, and the door immediately opened wider.

A young woman with a comb on her head smiled, and first reached out to pick up the confused Manyun. Then, Mother Zhu pushed the little Taoist priest into the courtyard, and then flashed into the door, and the gate was immediately and firmly closed.

Being held high and sitting on the arm of the woman who opened the door, Zhou Manyun was dizzy for a while, staring at the goose egg face in front of him, dumbfounded.

"Sister! No, how long has it been since you forgot about Sister Bai Lu? A finger lightly tapped Zhou Manyun's face, and the young woman holding her wrinkled her nose, revealing an expression of wanting to cry.

"White dew! Sister Yun is probably frightened by your appearance here! Zhu's mother's hand slapped on the back of the woman's hand, looking at the young daughter-in-law, who was only twenty, and immediately changed to a smile, and the corner of her mouth on the right side showed a deep dimple.

Lu? Zhou Manyun's mind once again drifted to a few years after his previous life in amazement. At that time, when she was about nine years old, she did see this woman named Bai Lu.

At that time, Man Yun followed the whole family to the ancestral tomb of the Zhou family to worship and return, and met this woman at the gate of the Zhou mansion. As soon as Man Yun got out of the carriage, Bai Lu rushed over, screaming one by one, looking like a mad demon. Zhou Manyun was frightened into Gao's arms, and the woman was also pulled away by the servants of the Zhou family, Manyun peeked at her and was deeply impressed.

She asked the Gao family, and the Gao family vaguely said that it was the maid Bailu who was her mother's original side, but before the Zhou family returned to Huocheng, she had been released by the Du family, and she was directly divorced in Luojing, and had nothing to do with the Zhou family.

Do you think it's because her life is not satisfactory now, and she has found the old master's house again? In their previous lives, Zhou Manyun and the Gao family had guessed like this, but later the Gao family sent someone to find her, but they didn't find anyone in Huocheng, and they never heard from her again.

"Why is Sister Bai Lu also in Fengjin?" Thinking of the fog in his previous life, Zhou Manyun's little hand tentatively touched Bai Lu's face, and the soft touch made Bai Lu giggle.

"It's not that Mrs. had to ...... at the beginning", Mother Zhu remembered Du's instructions and Man Yun's age, and her mouth was vague, not to mention that at the moment, the important thing is to ask the little Taoist about it.

There are five or six people, both men and women, in the small courtyard where Bai Lu lives. Seeing that Mother Zhu came with Man Yun, they all came out like spring bamboo shoots. Zhou Manyun listened to them greet Zhu's mother, and was stunned for a while.

The little Taoist priest who originally wanted to find a chance to slip away had no choice but to shout at the top of his voice, "I still have to buy medicine!" If you go back to the mountain too late, you'll be cut! ”

A big hand reached under the little Taoist's eyelid, and a calm male voice sounded, "Bring the medicine list first!" ”

A crumpled piece of paper was pulled out of the little Taoist's arms, and a young man took it and looked at it twice. Then he beckoned, and another man in the courtyard stepped forward to take it and quickly ran out of the courtyard gate.

The little Taoist priest scratched his head and had to sit down with his lips pouted, accepting the repeated interrogations of several people.

After Forget Yu called the false words from Zhou's house to Xiwan in the middle of the night, he followed a group of injured and escaped servants and hid in the Balei Mountain in the west of Fengjin County. I can hunt mountain goods there, and I can also exchange food with the mountain people, but I can also get by, and I can pick herbs from the mountains by myself, and occasionally ask Wuyu to go down the mountain to buy some, and I have cured many people.

This time, when he was asked to go down the mountain to buy medicine, the master also stuffed a peach and explained the two sentences he wanted to convey, and the others didn't say much to him.

"That's it?" , Zhou Manyun had doubts in his eyes.

"That's all!" , The little Taoist priest glared back fiercely.

Bai Lu hugged Man Yun with a smile, softened his voice, and whispered softly to the little Taoist, "Little brother! Think about it again, what was so special about your master before letting you go down the mountain this time? ”

Particularly? The little Taoist priest was originally arrogant, but after a while, he turned around, and his face turned white all of a sudden, "A few days ago, a group of people came to the mountain, and they looked quite horizontal, and they were originally fighting with those servants to grab mountain goods." However, when I came to it later, many of them were fellow villagers of those servants, who had been affected by the disaster in Binzhou and went south to find a way to survive, and they also lived in the mountains after the two were reconciled. The master had been talking to them all night last night, and as soon as he came out of the room this morning, he asked me to go down the mountain to buy medicine......

"Those who were caught making trouble in Sai Wan were put in the shackles of the river works for three days, and two of them were sunburned. The others were taken to the county jail, where they heard that they would be sent to Pingzhou in the next two days. The man who spoke was the man who asked the little Taoist priest for the medicine list just now, called Du Xuanshuang.

Zhou Manyun was listening to the sound and distinguishing the line just now, and judged that Bai Lu and Xuan Shuang were a young couple who had just been married. Just now, from the few words that the two of them exchanged with Zhu's mother, Zhou Manyun knew that they were involved in the process of going to Xiwan to inquire about prescriptions to collecting medicines a few days ago.

"No, they want to rob the prison, right?" , Mother Zhu grinned, and then covered her big mouth, lest she act as a crow's mouth again.

Several pairs of eyes in the room looked at each other, revealing meaning, but they all agreed.

The little Taoist priest's face became whiter, and his eyes became erratic, and he couldn't wait to immediately give birth to wings under his ribs, so he flew back to Balei Mountain to ask the master for clarification.

"But if they rob the prison, they will rob the prison, what does it matter to the Zhou family?" Someone on the side asked a question in confusion.

Du Xuanshuang's face turned cold, and a young man who received his hint stepped forward with a smile, hooked the neck of the little Taoist priest who forgot to speak, and the two brothers dragged him out of the door as if so.

After the forgotten words were taken out, a picture was quickly opened and spread out on the table, Zhou Manyun made up with a small sale, but his eyes fell on Du Xuanshuang's right hand that was still pressed at the end of the picture.

The hand was slender and powerful, and its thumb was slightly cocked when pressed against the scroll, revealing a distinct thin callus. This is also good at pulling the bow and controlling the strings! Zhou Manyun smiled, and then used the word "also" in his mind, stunned.

Finding that the little lady had been staring at the picture, Du Xuanshuang's slightly dark face smiled thickly, but she pushed the picture two inches in the direction of Man Yun. He is only three or two months older than Man Yun's mother-in-law Du, and when his mother was Du Shanshan's wet nurse, she divided his rations, and she can be regarded as a compatriot. For Man Yun, he has a liking for blood relatives.

The Fengjin county town drawn on the map, the daughters of other boudoir pavilions may not have much contact with these geographical maps, and they feel dizzy at first glance. But in his previous life, Man Yun was taught by that person to see a lot, so he quickly found his bearing. Her eyes quickly swept from the Fengjin County Ya to the Liuye Hutong where the Liu family temporarily lived.

Du Xuanshuang's eyes were full of praise, and his fingers gently touched several seemingly unrelated points on the map.

The county government of Fengjin County is on the east side of the Yakou Street in the central axis of the county, which is the characteristic of the county government since the Chen Dynasty, because on the left side of the county office, the west side of the road is the City God Temple. One yin and one yang two yamen, occupy the center of the county, and the county god is the fourth grade, and the county is mostly a sesame petty official of six or seven grades, so he has to give the left side of the throne to the lord of the city god.

And just now, the street where Zhu's mother took Manyun to buy medicine is near the Chenghuang Temple, and if you walk two or three hundred meters to the south, you will arrive at the Liuye Hutong that is now rented by the Zhou family.

Fengjin County is bordered by the river in the south, so Xiwan, which has always been called a place for untouchables by Mrs. Zhou and other noble ladies, is actually near the ferry outside the gate of the south of the county, and is next to the wealthy Nancheng.

If it weren't for the ferry, how could Fengjin Nancheng be rich? Zhou Manyun's face flew with a faint look of shame, a few days ago, she was trapped in the small courtyard of the Zhou family and listened to the false words that the Taoist priest left in the middle of the night, and she also casually said in front of Du Shi and Zhu's mother that the Taoist priest ran from the courtyard of the Zhou family to Xiwan at night It was really a stupid thing that the speed was amazing, and she should have been due west outside the city when she really became Xiwan.

"If I were those fugitives, as soon as I entered the city, I would first set fire to these rich families in the southwest to rob the money, and then divide the people to go to the county government ......," Du Xuanshuang said in a steady voice about the robbery he expected, in an orderly manner.

"It's okay if it's just putting on a show and letting the county government divide the officials to come here, I'm afraid that those thieves will really rob it!" , Listening to Du Xuanshuang's words, Mother Zhu breathed a long sigh of relief, if it was a passing thief, there was no need to escape, it was estimated that the Taoist priest was just cautious to remind him to pay attention.

Maybe Mother Zhu is right this time, there will really be thieves! The blood-colored and running figures left in the childhood memories of his previous life seemed to become clearer with the buzzing sound in his ears, Zhou Manyun held his breath and wanted to see everything like a fog clearly, followed by the pain of tearing his brain from the inside out.

"It's better to be cautious. It's just that the eldest brother just went to Binzhou ...... with most of the people", Du Xuanshuang's voice was a little angry.

His eldest brother Du Xuanfeng originally led a team of fifty people to secretly protect the Zhou family to the south according to the general's orders, but just in time for the news of the Zhou family's accident to arrive, he dispersed the manpower arrangement. Two or three went back to Yanzhou to report the news, and more than a dozen followed their uncle back to Luojing, and the rest stayed here to guard, but Mrs. Zhou has always had a knot in her heart for the Du family, and Miss Du Shanshan thought it was more troublesome to explain to her mother-in-law, so they rented another courtyard to live in.

But two days ago, Du Shanshan asked them to investigate the dart team sent by the grandmother of the Zhou family to Luojing as a gift. The people sent out found the corpses of several servants of the Zhou family in Cangbi Mountain, and after Du Xuanfeng received the report, he took most of the people to Chenzhou to track down the thieves according to the instructions sent by the young lady, and he had just left for two days.

"It's just a few servants! In the past, he was an honest farmer who tended to the crops, so he didn't expect to be ruthless, right? Bai Lu softly comforted her worried husband.

"You are young, and you have been in Beijing with Miss for so many years, have you forgotten some things?" , Zhu's mother snorted dissatisfiedly, "If you don't eat or drink, you can't save your life, and no matter how honest you are, you will become a ghost." The barbarians of the Qiang tribe in Yanzhou are ruthless, but if there is a catastrophe, the local victims of this province will rob food and people like fierce ghosts! ”

No matter how honest a person is, he will become a ghost in the face of disaster...... It's true! Mother Zhu said it unintentionally, but the words and sentences continued to bang Zhou Manyun's ear drums, and her eyes suddenly darkened.

"Sister Yun!" , Zhu's mother screamed, and her big hand stretched out to copy Zhou Manyun's crooked little body.
