Gu Yan and his entourage packed up their baggage early, said goodbye to them, declined the thank-you gifts they frequently handed over, and embarked on the journey early.

Luo Xiao, who had rested in that farmer's house for a night, woke up today and looked much better, and they set off directly.

After five days of rushing in a row, in addition to eating and decocting medicine in the middle, Gu Yan only rested for one or two hours at night, and now he had just crossed the mountain in front of him and saw the heavily guarded town in front of him, and he thought that he had arrived at his destination.

Luo Xiao lifted the curtain from the inside, and the area seemed to be burned by fire, but the smell of the burnt was so faint that it could hardly be smelled, and it was blown by the wind and could not stir up much soot.

"Stop me!"

Gu Yan looked at the dozens of people who were rampage, and directly drank the carriage that continued to move forward.

Luo Xiao was held down by Gu Yan and didn't let her come out, and got out of the carriage and walked in front of them.

The group of people were all fierce and vicious, with machetes and hoes in their hands, but they did not act rashly, and began to look frightened after drinking the people.

"I don't know what you have to ask, I'm passing through here with Neiko, and I'm going to visit a doctor relative in Yunnan, don't be excited, we can calm down and talk together." Gu Yan teased them, his tone was tepid, and his conversation and demeanor were pleasing to the eye, so that this group of people took off their guard.

"Phew! Who knows if you are like those corrupt officials! "There are a few people who have not been deceived by Gu Yan's gentleness, because they have also met people who look very approachable on the same face, but they turned out to be a two-faced and three-faced smiling tiger, and they betrayed them all behind their backs.

"I'm just an unknown businessman, people like us have no chance to come into contact with the imperial court, even if we are talented, we have no way to serve the country, and now it's enough to live in peace......" Gu Yan's words were so angry that Luo Xiao believed it, and through that layer of curtains, she saw that the people outside were moved by him.

"Your grandfather often watches dramas on weekdays?" It's so exciting, it's almost applause.

"Madame is really joking, but I feel wronged for him when I hear what the master said." Ruzhu is quite touching.

The leader pointed to the carriage and said to Gu Yan suspiciously: "Let the people inside come out!" ”

When Luo Xiao heard this, Gu Yan replied and waited for a while, then lifted the curtain and led Luo Xiao down.

I saw that the girl was dressed in white, with a thick fox attack on her body, her face was as pale as promise, and the whole person was weak and weak, as if without Gu Yan's support, Luo Xiao would definitely faint on the ground.

Seeing that the girl's hands were wrapped in gauze, and there were traces of dried and blackened blood on them, especially at the fingertips, as long as she had a heart, she would feel pain.

Seeing this, Luo Xiao was even more startled, her face turned even paler, and she kept hiding in Gu Yan's arms, trembling and asking, "What's wrong?" What happened? Husband, are you alright? ”

In the face of Luo Xiao's three consecutive questions, Gu Yan coaxed and laughed, coaxing Luo Xiao to be docile, and he didn't dare to raise his head and bury it in Gu Yan's chest.

"You have also seen that Madame is timid, and she was frightened last time...... Gu Yan was very distressed, looking at the people in front of him a little embarrassed, and finally directly gathered around and muttered.

Luo Xiao turned her face slightly, glanced at the group of people, and then looked up at Gu Yan.

Gu Yan understood, and also muttered in her ear: "Wait a minute, this group of people is estimated to have something to do with what we met before, and we can break into them." ”

"This battle is too amazing, you see Liuzhu is scared."

Said that he was scared and really had to count the beads, and he didn't dare to raise his head when he was hiding behind the two of them at the moment, and he didn't dare to breathe in the atmosphere, thinking that he was really scared of what happened last time.

The group of people also finished discussing and walked up to them, although they were still a little unhappy, they still said to them to go with them, but before leaving, the three of them were blindfolded by a black cloth, leaving only a rope for Gu Yan to hold.

Gu Yan asked Luo Xiao's hand to grasp herself, and the remaining hand held her waist, while Liuzhu held Luo Xiao's sleeve tightly, and the three of them walked slowly with them, for fear that one would bump and fall without noticing.

The carriage was pulled by one of the stronger peasants, and the rest were surrounded by water, lest one of them should run away without noticing and give the news.

I don't know how many times I went around in the forest before I stopped, the black cloth on the faces of the three of them was torn off, and Gu Yan squinted to adapt to the light.

After they came over, they found that it was actually full of people, in this grotto, the number of people was nearly 100, the old and weak, women and children were all inside, and they were all panicked and scared, and the cave that was not big was shrunk into a large open space by them.

"How can you bring a stranger back!" There was an old woman who was banging on the ground with a cane, and she was angry.

"They may have met Big Brother." The leader muttered, "I'm afraid it's gone." ”

The group was grief-stricken, and another report had no way to live, how could they live, they had lived here for generations! Is it true that you have to leave your homeland? Not to mention anything else, they may not even get out of here before they are wiped out by the group of rich wolves who are eyeing each other!

"What about them! They've seen it! How could it be gone? ”

After listening to it for a while, Gu Yan finally heard what they were talking about, it seemed right, I felt very familiar when I saw this person's face at that time, this time, it seems that that group of people were the people who came to Chang'an City desperately at that time, but no one in the government took care of it, there was no way in front of them, and since they couldn't get the result, they directly built a camp in the suburbs of Beijing, harming one party.

It's just that Gu Yan doesn't understand, there are at least 100 people there, and there should be one person from every family, how can there be no government to deal with it, and no one can say it, is it not appropriate to do things if ten people and 100 people are angry with the people?

Or is there an inside story, someone must have suppressed it, otherwise it would not have been concealed for so long, no wonder there could be such a calamity that carelessly disregarded people's lives, they were afraid at first that they wanted to attract people's attention, but they ate the marrow and knew the taste, this hatred was in the bones, and it was a pleasure to kill people to retaliate.

What is the difference between such an act, and even more so by the officials here!

Luo Xiao felt Gu Yan's anger, she squeezed Gu Yan's hand in the palm of her hand, no matter how well Gu Yan hid it, his trembling hands betrayed him fiercely.

Gu Yan made up his mind on Luo Xiao's clear eyes, and did not let his anger be exposed in their eyes.

"Have you ever seen a man who looks eight points like me, and there are hundreds of people around me? To be honest, I'm afraid I won't be able to help but do something out of the ordinary to your little lady! The man held a knife on Luo Xiao's neck, threatened Gu Yan, and asked.

"Yes, I have seen it, I can't hide it, the wounds on my wife's body and my hands are all taken care of by them, they imprisoned dozens of women, killed their husbands, chopped them into meat sauce and fed them to the dogs, and some of the uneaten ones were thrown in the backyard." Gu Yan was very afraid that the person opposite would accidentally cut a bloody hole on Luo Xiao's neck, which made the other party relax a little.

"And then! How did you escape? The knife edge was closer to Luo Xiao, Luo Xiao felt the cold air above, her face turned pale, and her expression was panicked.

"Because my wife was sick at the time, there was no doctor there, so I had to go out to find a doctor, and when I came back, my wife was gone, so I had to report to the official, but I didn't expect to encounter so many things......"

Okay, this nonsense Luo Xiao was almost fooled into believing again, how can this person open his eyes and talk nonsense all day long!

The knife left Luo Xiao's neck, and the man changed his previous domineering attitude, and sat in the corner with a depressed face, "Also, my brother, I don't listen to anyone's persuasion to do anything, and as a result, I caused such a disaster, not only can't help us, but also give an account of my life, it's really fate!" After saying that, he covered his face and whimpered.

The three of them looked at the group of people, whether they were going to sit or leave, it was really difficult and embarrassing.

"Ahem......" Luo Xiao received Gu Yan's eyes and coughed in a low voice.

"That's it, you find a place to rest for a while, and I'll let someone send you away tomorrow, just ......"

"Rest assured, we will keep our mouths shut and will not say anything more." Gu Yan answered smartly and assured, and Luo Xiao and the others also nodded again and again.

"But what do we do now? This corrupt official is in charge, and it's not a problem for us to hide here all day long! ”

"Alas!"

"What a good thing to do!"

The group began to squeak again, discussing all sorts of things that were not feasible, and then fell silent again.

"Actually, what's so hard about you? I know the housekeeper of the prime minister, and I may be able to help you. Gu Yan continued to talk nonsense without changing his face.

Luo Xiao was almost choked by saliva and muttered, but it happened that this muttering was heard by Gu Yan again, he glanced at Luo Xiao, pretending not to see the disgust in her eyes.

"You're really not an official?" The man spread his thorns like a hedgehog and looked at them nervously.

"Because the prime minister is a fair person, he doesn't take any benefits, and those who want to buy a position and ask for an official have no way out, and it just so happens that there is a time when they want to buy some new furniture, and the housekeeper is not very old, and I am like a friend who has not seen me for many years, and I have a good conversation, so I can help inform me of something, and I, a businessman from other places, will leave soon, and finally I have to rush back to Chang'an City, and the family business is still there."

Gu Yan's face was calm, as if the prime minister he was talking about was not himself, and even Luo Xiao felt embarrassed and blushed when he heard it.

"When... Seriously? "Obviously, I was deceived and hated, and when I heard Gu Yan's boasting, I had to doubt seven points.

"I vouch for my life, my wife is innocent, and I hope you don't hurt him, and you can send someone to pretend to be our little servant and go back with us, of course, we will keep you safe." Gu Yan said it with a clear look, and he couldn't wait to raise his three fingers and swear.

They saw Gu Yan swearing, swore a few words, and left a sentence for them to discuss before deciding.

Then let the three men be called and sent to the town to-morrow, and they would not dare to gamble, for this gamble would have led all to injustice, if they were like the others......
