"You! I'm the city gate officer of the king of Xijun, and you're just a small patrol officer. Why hit me! ”

The city gate official covered his face and scolded angrily.

Captain Xue snorted coldly and said, "I was ordered by the Witch King to come on patrol, what is that Xijun King?" I do not know! I advise you to be interesting, old fellow, or it won't be a slap in the face. ”

The city gate official gritted his teeth and glared at Captain Xue for a long time, and finally left in silence.

Of course, this scene was also seen by Yurun and a few people hiding in the tree.

Zhao Ling'er said anxiously: "I'm still really afraid of something, this city gate official is really useless, he didn't dare to resist when he was beaten in front of so many people, it really made people more and more angry." And the two people who squatted on the ground and were beaten should be the people brought by Lao Huang, right? Shall we go over and help now? ”

Yurun frowned and said, "Wait a little longer, let's see what this patrol will do next." ”

At this time, one of the men who was squatting on the ground and being beaten trembled and stretched out a dirty and bloody hand, and begged: "Master Jun, stop fighting, please stop beating us." ”

Captain Xue kicked hard and said, "You say, why are the two of you the same color as the ones who just went in?" ”

The man raised his gray face and said, "Master Jun, how can we ordinary people who have been affected by the disaster have any clothes, but we just found a few things from the pile of dead people that look like they can wear and wear them." ”

Captain Xue took a step back in disgust when he heard this, and asked, "How do you prove it?" ”

The man took it out of his arms, took out a slender, unpatterned, very simple silver hairpin, and said, "This is what I took from the heads of other dead people by the way, and I think it is worth some money, but it is useless to keep them when they are dead, so I took them." Master Jun, please take a look. ”

Captain Xue took out a handkerchief, pinched the silver hairpin with a handkerchief, looked at it in front of him, and nodded: "I will accept this evidence." Go in. ”

"Thank you, thank you."

After saying that, the two got up from the ground with painful faces and limped into the city gate.

Lao Huang, who was standing from a distance and watching, angrily kicked the stone under his feet and scolded: "Damn, this is what Xiao Li saved for a long time to buy for his daughter-in-law." It's so much of a thing. ”

After this incident, Yurun was afraid of panic, so she decided to talk to Lao Huang again, so she jumped down from the tree and walked over.

"Lao Huang, don't be angry." Yurun stepped forward and said.

Lao Huang sighed helplessly and said, "The county lord doesn't know, it's not easy for these soldiers to save some money. Don't look at the silver hairpin is inconspicuous, Xiao Li has been saving for a long time. ”

Yurun stepped forward and comforted: "Lao Huang, I will tell General Murong about this, and everyone will get the subsidy from the general at that time." For now, it's important for everyone to go into the city. ”

As he spoke, Yurun took out a few silver ingots from his hand and squeezed them hard, and when he stretched out his palm, all of them turned into broken silver.

"Lao Huang, you have given these to everyone, so as not to suffer from flesh and skin again."

Yurun handed the broken silver to Lao Huang and said.

Lao Huang nodded with emotion and said, "I thank the county lord for everyone." ”

As he spoke, Lao Huang distributed the broken silver to a few companions around him, and then turned around to find other people who were hiding around.

The ancients said that money can make ghosts grind. Honesty does not deceive others.

With the lessons of the past, everyone became more clever when they entered the city, and whenever Captain Xue found faults, he found a bunch of reasons to stuff broken silver for Captain Xue.

After the last Lao Huang successfully entered the city, Yurun stuffed a pill into his mouth and said, "Let's go, it's our turn to perform." ”

Zhao Ling'er and Jiang Peipei looked at Yurun and smiled at each other.

"Stop! You three girls with fine skin and tender meat don't stay at home, why did you come to our Tiandu Mansion? Captain Xue asked with a squint.

Yurun raised a withered yellow face, and just wanted to speak, but coughed out "cough, cough, cough".

"Sister, you have to hold on!" Jiang Peipei was so frightened that she immediately patted Yurun's back and gave her relief.

Zhao Ling'er stepped forward and begged: "Master Jun, my sister is sick, I heard that a good doctor has come to the city, I want to take my sister in to see a doctor." ”

Captain Xue frowned and said, "It can't be an infectious disease, right?" ”

Zhao Ling'er hurriedly shook her head, stuffed a piece of broken silver into Captain Xue's hand, and said, "No, no." Please rest assured. ”

Captain Xue pinched the broken silver in his hand, waved his hand and said, "Remember what you said, don't make trouble for me." Let's get inside. ”

Zhao Ling'er said gratefully: "Thank you, thank you, thank you." The military master is a good man. ”

Saying that, Zhao Linger and Jiang Peipei helped Yurun into the city.

The dilapidated temple in Tiandu is actually not remote, and Yurun and a few people found it while walking.

At this time, Lao Huang had already counted all the numbers and was waiting for Yurun's arrival at the door.

"Lao Huang, you guys are moving very fast, are you all here? No one was hurt again, right? Yurun asked with a smile.

Lao Huang shook his head and said, "No, everyone has already arrived." ”

Yurun nodded and asked, "How about those two who were just beaten?" Is the injury serious? Take me to see it. ”

"This bit of flesh is nothing at least, they will get better in a moment after rubbing some wound medicine."

As he spoke, Lao Huang turned sideways and let Yurun and the others walk in first, and then quickly followed.

Yurun thought for a moment and asked, "Are there any other homeless people inside?" Did we scare so many people at once? ”

Lao Huang laughed and said, "There aren't many homeless people here, and they are still staying inside." At first they were scared and thought we were going to drive them away, but then I gave them some food and after a few words of reassurance, they were not so scared anymore. ”

After listening to Lao Huang's words, Yurun was a little surprised, wasn't the disaster very serious? Why are there not many broken temples?

"You take me to see those homeless people first, I want to ask."

So Yurun changed his attention again, and planned to inquire about the situation here first.

Lao Huang pointed to the few in the corner and said, "County Lord, those few are." ”

Yurun took a cursory look and saw that there were about seventeen or eighteen people, so he walked straight over.

"Fellow, why are you a few here, didn't you say that Xishu was affected everywhere?"

Yurun asked as she sat on the ground with a smile.

One of the men, who was biting on the bread given by Lao Huang, said: "Those who are dying of hunger are dying of hunger, those who are sick are dying of illness, and there are also those who have gone to other places." Recently, a group of free clinics came to Tiandu, and it is said that there is food and accommodation until the illness is cured, so everyone goes there regardless of whether it is a major or minor illness. We don't have any illness, so we have to stay here. ”

Yurun nodded, thinking to herself, what kind of free clinic this man said must be a group of people brought by the dean.

"And what about your three meals a day?"

Yurun asked curiously.

The man sighed and said: "Now there is basically no work in Tiandu City, we generally beg for a living, and if we really don't have anything to eat, we will go to the mountains to have a look." Fortunately, the disaster in Tiandu is not serious, and it is not difficult to find something to eat on the mountain. ”

Yurun twisted his eyebrows and asked, "Does the king of the West County care about you?" He was ordered by the emperor to guard here. ”

The man's face became even more ugly now, and he was silent for a long time before he spoke: "From the beginning to the present, I haven't seen any relief from the government. All watched as we were homeless, starving to death. At first, there were still people looking for the government, but they were all beaten out, and then everyone fled when they saw that the disaster was getting worse and worse. I don't know what to do in the future. ”

Yurun took out the silver taels from his bosom, distributed them to each homeless person, and comforted: "Don't worry, this is what I can give." If you can find a job, look for it, and if you don't dislike it, follow us later. In short, you will not go hungry. You think about it carefully, and if you decide, come to me, or this old Huang next to me can do it. ”

These dozen or so homeless people never dreamed that they would wait for hope after starving in this broken temple for so long, but is this true?

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and my eyes are in disbelief.

Finally, the man who had just spoken stood up and said categorically: "Okay, my Wang Da is willing to follow you, as long as you eat and live, I am not afraid of going up the sword mountain and going down the sea of fire!" ”

At this moment, the others couldn't help it, and they all stood up and said:

"And me!"

"And me!"

"We all do!"

Yurun turned around, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Okay." I will treat you all equally. Do a good job, and I will definitely not treat you badly. ”

"Thank you, girl!"

Relaxed smiles spread across everyone's faces and they shouted in unison.

Yurun nodded, and walked out.

Lao Huang was a little puzzled by Yurun's bold move, so he followed closely.

"County lord, this, what if it's a meticulous work?"

Lao Huang is an upright person, and after he walked outside, he bluntly expressed the doubts in his heart.

Yurun said with a smile: "It's normal for you to worry, but you have also seen that in fact, we and the people of Xishu, whether they speak or look, are actually a little different, let alone dressed." It's just that today you tore your clothes in order to get away with it. Otherwise, a discerning person will look like he is from another place.

And they've been here for a while, and they basically live by begging, so they know Tiandu City better than we do. And no one will suspect them when they wander around town, so I need them to find out for me.

And wouldn't it be better if they were finely crafted, and I'm worried that I don't have a cut.

Lao Huang, don't worry, we will definitely be able to defeat him in this tough battle. ”

Lao Huang smiled honestly and said, "We have already understood the strength of the county lord, since you have made this decision, we will definitely support it fully." ”

Yurun looked around and said, "Let's go see those two, and by the way, ask them what they heard at the city gate." I'm curious about why the city gate official didn't resist at all after being beaten. ”

Lao Huang nodded, and walked to the other side with Yurun, only to see two men lying on the ground resting, ragged, broken skin and blood stains visible to the naked eye.

Yurun stepped forward to check it with some anxiety, and said, "It's okay, I didn't hurt my bones, you can raise it for a few days." ”

"Thank you, county lord."

The two men stood up and thanked in unison.

Yurun waved his hand and said, "Don't get up, it's the most important thing to take care of your injuries at this time." By the way, when you were beaten before, the city gate official came to dissuade you, why was you beaten by Captain Xue later? Looking at their official positions, I didn't see who was bigger. ”

One of the men said, "Back to the county lord, that Captain Xue was sent by the Wu King, and he completely ignored the city gate officials, who were officials like the King of the West Counties. When the city gate official heard Captain Xue's words, he could only swallow his anger. ”

Yurun frowned and said, "Okay, I see." Go on and rest, and if your injuries are serious, speak out. ”

"County Lord Xie."

The two men thanked in unison.

Yurun nodded and left with Lao Huang.
