Chapter 22 Arrival in Baozhou
Lu Cheng shook his head, turned his head and saw this kid with a sly smile, his hands were covered with white medicinal powder, and he stuffed the back of his subordinates' necks.
"Big brother, there's a spider on your neck, I'll take it out for you."
The face of the person she touched twitched, as if someone had stuffed a caterpillar in the neck, clutching his back and jumping around.
Very good, I didn't expect that this Shangguan Yuling's subordinates would have such villains who fit his heart.
He made a vacancy, let the people below drag Shangguan Yuling, tiptoed, rushed to Lu Li, kicked her buttocks, Lu Li fell unsteadily under his feet, and ate a mouthful of mud.
Falling out with it, there was also her personal baggage.
Since the last time she was in distress in Sparrowhawk Village, she has an extra heart, her belongings are not at home, and when she goes out, she hides it close to her body, and her baggage is full of valuables.
In case she is in a foreign land and encounters any difficulties, it will not be too difficult to appear on the camera with Yinliang.
Lu Chenghe casually kicked away the burden on the ground, and the burden that was not tightly bound was scattered, and a small emerald green object inside rolled down into the mud, half of which was submerged in the mud and sand.
Lu Chenghe lowered his eyes, and saw that the object was very familiar, so he simply bent down and picked it up.
It doesn't matter if you pick it up, Lu Chenghe's face was shocked, and he saw a small "Lu" character engraved on the corner of the jade pendant, and his body stiffened.
"Where did you get this jade pendant?"
"This ...... I bought it casually at the stall. Lu Li wiped the mud on his face, his eyes moved slightly, and he said nonsense.
"Which stall? What do you see the person who sold it? How old are you? ”
Lu Chenghe's expression became nervous, his eyebrows were furrowed, and his eyes were full of murderous intent, so that Lu Li didn't dare to tell the truth.
"In the Yingzhou market, the vendor did a lot, and I heard him say that someone sold him the jade pendant, and he did it......"
"It's a woman who sells jade pendants? More than 16 years old? ”
"Right...... Precisely. ”
Lu Chenghe grabbed Lu Li's shirt and lifted her small body up: "If you dare to say half a lie, I will kill you at the end of the world." ”
Lu Li's face froze, and the scene of his head falling to the ground quickly flashed in his mind.
Shangguan Yuling kicked away the minions beside him, tiptoed a little, fell behind Lu Li, stretched out his hand and slapped Lu Chenghe one by one, and when he stepped back and dodged, he pulled Lu Li and blocked behind him.
"Go find Liang Song and hide!" He lowered his voice and gave her a sneak push.
"I took this jade pendant first, and then I used it to exchange it for your livelihood. Let's go! ”
As soon as these words came out, Lu Chenghe took the rest of the palace people on his horse and left quickly along the way he came, Shangguan Yinling and Lu Li glanced at each other, both very puzzled.
"It's a pity for my jade pendant." Lu Li sighed lightly, she had carried this jade pendant since she was a child, and it was because of it that she knew her surname, but she didn't expect to be snatched by a demon now, "That's it, it's worth it to exchange so many of our lives." ”
Looking at the devil's angry appearance, he may have been their family's old enemy for many years, and he knew that there was still a descendant of her, who was in a hurry to kill him.
Fortunately, she was witty and lied to the past.
"This jade pendant is important to you?" Shangguan Yuling put away his sword, commanded everyone to clean up the mess, and continued on the road, on the way, he couldn't help but slow down, stopped next to Lu Li, and asked.
"It's important and important, it's something I've worn since I was a child, it should be left to me by my parents, it's not important to say it's not important, after all, it's something outside the body."
She has been wandering around since she was a child, and she knows that nothing lasts long, and although she is lost, she can also let go.
"Another day," Shangguan Yinling seemed to see her sadness, "When the matter in Baozhou is settled, pass by Yizhou when you return to Beijing, and I will help you retrieve the jade pendant." ”
"Thank you for your righteousness, but this Moon Shadow Palace is a Jianghu Demon Sect, a small piece of jade pendant, and it's not worth a few dollars, so it's not worth the risk of adults to break into the Moon Shadow Palace."
"What does it mean not to be worth it? If I think it's worth it, it's worth it. ”
Lu Li looked sideways at Shangguan Yinling, his expression was serious, and there was a serious light in his eyes, not like a joke. I never thought that such a narrow and stingy god hunting adult in her heart would have a time to stick a knife in the ribs for a little person like her.
She was flattered.
The road was bumpy, and the group finally arrived outside Baozhou City.
Soon after the flood swept through the city, even the city gate and the city wall were washed down, and the gate was guarded by the officials of the government, but it was a dead city, except for those who went out to find relatives and other places to live, they were the only ones who went to the city.
Shangguan Yinling for the saint micro-service, back and forth with weapons in and out of the city gate need to pass through the city token, Shangguan Yinling does not have a token, but there is a piece of gold token given by the saint to perform official business, a token, the guards of the city are all kneeling down.
"See Chincha-sama!"
"This official has come from afar with disaster relief money and food, and it will be handed over to the government today, and I hope that you will help the people as soon as possible."
"Yes!"
The group handed over the disaster relief money to the government and went to the post station to rest.
Although the inside of the post station is too simple at the moment, it is much cleaner than tossing in the mud outside the city.
Lu Li changed her clothes, the clean water of the post station was limited, and she didn't dare to waste it, so she only took half a basin of water, wet her face with a handkerchief, and wiped the tiredness and mud stars on her body for several days, even with sweat stains.
After changing into clean clothes, Lu Li couldn't stay in the house, so he got up and went downstairs, ready to see the customs of this Baozhou and the severity of the disaster.
Unexpectedly, she had just changed the door and was about to go downstairs, and Shangguan Yinling in the next room also came out of the room.
Both of them were refreshed, looked at each other, and had the same purpose.
"My lord really cares about the people, and he has to go to observe the people's feelings before he rests." Lu Li bowed slightly and saluted, "The lower official admires." ”
"Put away your sycophants and keep up." Shangguan Yin glanced at her, turned around and went downstairs first, Lu Li hurriedly followed, and the two of them left the post station and went to the street.
Baozhou has stopped raining for days at this moment, and it is rare to have a sunny day, and the moist bluestone slab ground is also slowly drying because of the sun.
This made the faces of the nearby people show a little joy, but they have been short of food and water for days, their faces are more haggard, their eye sockets are deep, their bodies are thin, and the faces of people walking on the road are not a little vivid.
The streets were also a mess, washed up after the flood a few days ago, but no one had the leisure to tidy up these things.
The two walked to the vicinity of the medical hall, where there was a long queue, and the people who saw the patients were basically as white as the earth, and they saw that the medicines in the pharmacy of the medical hall were empty.
There was no one in the bazaar, the two of them stopped, Lu Li looked sideways, and caught a glimpse of Shangguan Yinling's eyes with a sad look.
