"Uncle, it's too late for us to pass by and be taken in by the eldest mother, I am very grateful." Zhao Gao saw that the male owner of the house had returned, so he stood up and said politely.

"Childe, you're welcome, my family is simple, it's good not to dislike it." The man didn't think much about it, he was also a hospitable host, and when he saw Zhao Gao and others, all of them were talented and beautiful, and at first glance they were not ordinary children, so he said with a smile.

"What did you change and come back?" The eldest lady saw that her man was elated, so she asked curiously.

When the man heard this, he handed the bag in his hand to the eldest lady, and then smiled very happily, and did not forget to spare his head and said, "I hunted a lot of game today, and I went to the next town to exchange these rice grains." ”

The eldest lady took the bag, heavy, happy in her heart, and said with a smile: "It's heavy, this can be enough for us to eat for a while." ”

Zhao Gao and others saw the eldest mother and uncle, because of a bag of rice, they were very happy, and they saw their simplicity and kindness, Zhao Gao asked the uncle: "Uncle, how much time will it take to get here from the Great Wall?" ”

"It's not far away, it takes half a day to get to the town next door, and it only takes an hour to get to the Great Wall from the town." The uncle said honestly, and then asked Zhao Gao and others curiously: "What do you have to do with going to the Great Wall?" ”

"We're looking for someone." Zhao Gao said.

"Looking for someone, it's not easy to find someone on the Great Wall, who can you find, but there is news?" The uncle asked with concern, and then there was another expression that wanted to say something.

"Uncle, but what happened to the Great Wall?" Zhao Gao naturally saw the strangeness of the uncle, so he asked.

"This ......" Listening to Zhao Gao's words, the uncle hesitated.

"Speak up so they can have a bottom on it." The eldest lady saw her man's expression of wanting to stop talking, so she spoke.

The uncle is also a straight man, and after thinking about it, he said to Zhao Gao and others: "I don't know when you want to find people to go to the Great Wall, a few months ago, there were a group of people who were arrested to repair the Great Wall, men, women and children, and I don't know why for a while ago, they were all arrested and killed. ”

"Why were you arrested and killed? When did it happen? Li Jiang and Meng Jiangnu listened to the uncle's words, and stood up anxiously and asked.

"I don't know what the specific situation is, I only heard about it a month ago, saying that it was colluding with the enemy and delaying the construction period, and the death was miserable, and all men, women and children were killed." The uncle said regretfully.

"Aren't the people who built the Great Wall requisitioned strong men from the people? How can there be a woman and a child? Zhao Gao felt that something was wrong when he heard this, so he asked.

"Originally, yes, but three months ago, a group of people were sent to the Great Wall, there were men and women, and even children, hundreds of people, everyone didn't know what happened, there were relatives in the town who were defending the city, and I heard him reveal that they had committed something, and then they were assigned to repair the Great Wall, and the details are not clear." The uncle replied.

"Since it is a distribution, it must be strictly guarded, how can it be possible to fornicate with the enemy, and even more so they have only been here for a few months, and the blame for delaying the construction period cannot fall on their heads." Zhao Gao listened to the uncle's words and felt that things were strange, hundreds of people, men, women and children, and the time was very similar to the time when the refugees outside the city left.

"We don't know about this, the city guard said that the boss is not allowed to mention this matter, otherwise it will be a disaster, so no one dares to mention it now." The uncle said to Zhao Gao and others: "If you hadn't said that you would go to the Great Wall to find people, I wouldn't have told you about it." ”

"Childe, the person you're looking for shouldn't be in there, right?" The eldest lady asked with concern.

"No, the person we are looking for already has news, thank you for your concern." Meng Jiangnu said softly.

"That's fine, you have a good rest here tonight, and tomorrow I will tell my man to find a carriage for you, so that you can make your way conveniently." After listening to Meng Jiangnu's words, the eldest lady was relieved, and then said with a smile.

"Thank you, auntie." Meng Jiangnu said gratefully.

"Thank you, you guys have a good rest." As the eldest lady spoke, she pulled the man next to her and said, "Let's go back to the house, don't make noise." ”

"Okay~" The uncle followed the aunt with a smile on his face.

Seeing that the eldest mother and uncle had left, everyone sat in the courtyard and didn't speak for a while, and after a while, Li Jiang opened his mouth and said slowly: "Uncle, what you just said is true or false?" ”

"Seeing that the uncle is honest, it doesn't look like a lie." Murch said.

"But that's weird?" Meng Jiangnu had never heard of such a thing happening.

"My heart is always beating hard." Li Jiang covered his chest, I don't know why, after listening to his uncle's words, his heart beat very hard, and he felt that something had happened.

Zhao Gao and Mu Qi looked at each other, and immediately understood what the other party meant, Zhao Gao said: "Don't think about it, let's go back to the house to rest, hurry tomorrow as soon as possible, if there is anything, I will know everything when I meet Lao Meng." ”

"Yes, so many things have happened today, take a good rest first, and then discuss the matter when it reaches the Great Wall." Murch also spoke.

Li Jiang saw that everyone said this, and he didn't ask much, he was indeed tired today, maybe he was really tired, and he would be fine after resting, Li Jiang and Meng Jiangnu went back to the house to rest, leaving Zhao Gao and Mu Qi to sit in the courtyard, and Changchun went into the house to prepare the bed.

"If it's true, there's something wrong." Mu Qi said slowly.

"I just hope it's not what we think." Zhao Gao replied.

"You're the same as I thought." Mu Qi looked at Zhao Gao and said seriously.

"The time is too coincidental, hundreds of people, regardless of men, women, and children, came three months ago, and Lao Meng came about a month or so, and at that time all the hundreds of people were killed." Zhao Gao didn't have a smile on his face, if it was really as he thought, those people would have been killed, and hundreds of people died like this, how cruel.

"Don't tell your senior sister about this, for fear that she will be cranky." Mu Qi frowned and said, if it is true, Senior Sister will definitely not be able to accept it.

"I know." Zhao Gao naturally wouldn't let Li Jiang know, otherwise he wouldn't have made an excuse to let them go back to the house to rest just now.

"I don't know if General Meng knows about this." Murch said.

"If it's really as the uncle said, those people will definitely not let Lao Meng know, and the matter must be handled in advance and cover up everything." Although Zhao Gao didn't want to participate in the battle of right and wrong, Zhao Gao knew some means, since he killed people in advance, he would definitely do it cleanly and leave no traces.

After Zhao Gao finished speaking, the two of them were silent, each thinking about something in their hearts, and after a long time, Zhao Gao said: "It's not early, let's go back to the house to rest, recuperate our spirits, and set off as soon as possible tomorrow, so as not to cause anything else." "Zhao Gao, I always feel as if something else is going to happen, and my eyelids are always beating.

"Okay." Murch replied.

Changchun had already made the bed, standing at the door and waiting for Zhao Gao and others to come back, Changchun saw Zhao Gao and said: "Childe, Changchun inside has been tidied up, you go in to rest, I am guarding at the door." ”

"You can come in too, you don't have to worry too much when you're out and about, not to mention that the night is heavy and you're sick, I won't take care of you." Although Zhao Gao said with a disgusted face, he cared about Changchun in his heart.

Changchun listened to Zhao Gao's words, and happily followed in, Changchun naturally knew that his son-in-law was relating to himself, and he was happy in his heart.

Zhao Gao and Mu Qi lay on the bed all night, the two big men were a little anxious, it was not easy to turn over, they could only lie straight on the bed without moving, closing their eyes to rest, while Changchun sat on a small stool against the wall to rest, Li Jiang and Meng Jiangnu next door had fallen asleep, and Li Jiang was a little sleepy in a dream, near dawn, he opened his eyes suddenly, and when he did it, his back was full of sweat.

Meng Jiangnu was awakened by Li Jiang, looked at Li Jiang's sweaty face and asked, "Jiang'er, what's wrong with you, but you have a nightmare?" ”

"I don't know, I just feel a bad feeling." Li Jiang felt that his heart was beating fast, and his body was a little weak.

Seeing this, Meng Jiangnu gently wiped the sweat on Li Jiang's face with a handkerchief, and then said soothingly: "Jiang'er, it's okay, you were frightened yesterday, and it will pass, don't be afraid." ”

"Well, Sister Meng, I'm fine." Li Jiang eased his mind, and then smiled at Meng Jiangnu and said, "Disturb Sister Meng, you are resting." ”

"Silly Jiang'er, what nonsense are you talking about?" Meng Jiangnu saw that Li Jiang's face was a little better, and her heart was relaxed, and then she said gently: "Jiang'er, you can rest for a while." ”

"No, I can't sleep, Sister Meng is resting for a while, I'll go out for a walk." Li Jiang was completely sleepless and wanted to go out to breathe.

"I'll be with you." Meng Jiangnu said with a smile on her face.

Li Jiang and Meng Jiangnu went out of the room, the genius was slightly bright, and the surroundings were very quiet, Li Jiang and Meng Jiangnu walked into the yard, and saw that the eldest lady was already busy working on the stove, and the eldest mother saw that Li Jiang and Meng Jiangnu got up, so she smiled and said: "Why did the two girls get up so early?" Is it uncomfortable to sleep in the bed? ”

"No, my aunt, I didn't let us sleep on the streets, which is already a very lucky thing for us." Meng Jiangnu smiled at the eldest lady, and her every move was gentle and virtuous, which made people feel good.

"The eldest lady's house is dilapidated, and it's not much better than sleeping on the street, so it's good if you don't mind." The eldest lady is also a straightforward person, straight to the point.

"What is the aunt doing?" Li Jiang looked at the busy work in the hands of the eldest lady and asked.

"No, yesterday my family changed some rice, thinking that I would make something delicious for you this morning, so that you can have the energy to hurry." The eldest lady said with a smile.

Li Jiang and Meng Jiangnu looked at the pot of porridge that was cooked again, the flour in the hands of the eldest lady, and some side dishes on the table, they were very moved, obviously they were reluctant to eat, but they were willing to take it out for them to eat, they were really kind and simple people.
