Liangzhou City is not big, and there are not many Fang markets inside. Li Dahai only turned the corner and came to a market where sheep, horses, camels, donkeys, mules and other livestock were bought and sold.

Due to the siege of the city by the Mongol army for some time, this market has long been closed. Therefore, the exclusive shame of livestock is faintly imperceptible.

It is precisely for this reason that this fang city was ignored by the officials and soldiers who collected grain and grass.

"Sir!" , Li Si followed closely behind Li Dahai, wanting to speak and then stopped.

Ignoring it, Li Dahai walked quickly to the door of a veterinary hall.

Knock knock knock · There were a few knocks, but no one answered.

"Brother Zhang, Brother Zhang...", Li Dahai shouted a few more times outside. Li Si watched and helped knock on the door.

After a short while, there was the sound of footsteps inside. Then I heard a creak, and the wooden door opened.

Seeing that it was Li Dahai and Li Si, Veterinarian Zhang was a little surprised.

"Why are you here at this time?" As he spoke, he hurried them inside.

"Brother Zhang, is he going out of the city this time?" Li Dahai was a little surprised when he saw that there were several big burdens on the table, the chairs were overturned, and the worthless sundries were scattered all over the ground.

"Alas! Brother Li, I just got the news that the official army is preparing to retreat north. As she spoke, Boss Zhang's lady walked out of the inside with a big burden and three children.

"Retreat north? When? Before Li Dahai could speak, Li Si exclaimed. It is also these days that the people of Liangzhou City have spread the word of mouth. If he is captured by the Mongolian army, he will either die or be cannon fodder during the siege. Even if he survived, he was later brought back to the grassland by the Mongolian army and became a herdsman.

In this situation, Li Si is unwilling to do so no matter what.

Li Dahai also frowned, and said with a solemn expression: "Where did you get this news from?" ”。

"Alas! My brother's brother was eating military rations in the captive army before he got the news. For the sake of us all believers in Allah, I advise you to pack up your things and flee for your lives. Veterinarian Zhang said earnestly, and led the family out.

"Wait! Brother Zhang. Li Dahai took out five or six gold coins from his sleeve and said loudly: "The road is dangerous, and this little money is a brother's heart." ”。

"This--how!" Veterinarian Zhang shook his head and refused.

"If Brother Zhang feels worthy of it, why don't you give me the art of medicine and horses." , Li Dahai added.

When Veterinarian Zhang heard this, he hesitated for half a minute, then took out a book from his bag and said loudly: "This is the art of horse control handed down by my ancestors." Today, I'll leave it to you. ”。

The price negotiated before was much less than this! So Li Dahai made such a generous move, and Veterinarian Zhang was grateful.

After that, Zhang Dahai said again: "Now that the city gate is closed, how can you get out of the city?" ”。

"The brother of the inner man happens to be the defender of the South City Gate, and his status is not low. My wife and I went to him and let him go. Veterinarian Zhang originally didn't plan to say it. But for the sake of Li Dahai's love and righteousness, he still told the truth of the matter under the signal of his lady's eyes.

"Master ---", Li Si's eyes lit up, and he said to Li Dahai.

Knowing what he meant, Li Dahai wanted to speak and stopped.

Veterinarian Zhang is not a person who does not understand the world, and he is a little embarrassed: "If you want to go out of the city, why don't you come with us." ”。

"Xianggong--", veterinarian Zhang's lady pursed her mouth and muttered. At this time, they were already mud bodhisattvas crossing the river - they could not protect themselves. Where is there still energy, take care of others.

"When a man speaks, how can you have a woman's part in interjecting." , veterinarian Zhang said dissatisfied. His lady couldn't help but turn dark and a little angry.

Li Dahai's eyesight was good, so he took out an oval opal with very few impurities and polished from his arms. This is a Persian specialty, and when he went to sea, he brought a lot of it. A few were exchanged along the way, and there were a few opals of good quality left.

"Sister-in-law! This is a little bit of my heart, please smile. ”，

Veterinarian Zhang's wife immediately opened her eyes wide, and a few smiles immediately appeared on her face.

After all, such a large opal is only qualified to be worn by dignitaries. Like her, she is not even qualified to touch it in her life. I glanced at Veterinarian Zhang with some joy, and I wanted to accept it but didn't dare to accept it.

"Oops! Brother Li, this gift is too heavy. ”，

Li Dahai laughed, and forced the opal into Veterinarian Zhang's hand. Then he took out a few pieces of jade, saying that it was for the three children as a gift.

It's also such a time, and getting out of the city is the most important thing. Otherwise, if it falls into the hands of the Mongolian army, it will be nothing.

So under Li Dahai's toughness and veterinarian Zhang's soft grinding and hard bubbles, veterinarian Zhang finally accepted these heavy gifts.

At this point, Li Dahai and their departure from the city have been decided.

After an hour like this, Li Dahai rushed to the vicinity of the South City Gate with Li Si and seven or eight crew members.

By this time, there was already a faint chaos in the streets. Many misbehaving villains are already rushing for shops. Passing by a china shop, a gang of bandits was tearing a woman's clothes.

"Don't! Don't! The woman cried loudly with a child in her hands. Beside him, a man covered in blood lay there.

"What a bunch of brutes!" , Li Dahai scolded, and led the crew to rush in. It was also when all the officers and troops withdrew that the city fell into a state of disorder. The dark side of human nature is exposed.

They were all strong and strong, and in a short time they knocked the bandits to their stomachs. The woman was crying with her child in her arms with her hair disheveled, apparently frightened.

"Allah is above!" , Li Dahai watched, muttered, and led the crew away. But the woman was obviously not confused, and immediately followed.

Li Si went to persuade him not to follow. But the woman did not listen, and tightened her garments, and followed them.

Along the way, there were robbers, robbers, and murderers everywhere, and the people fled in all directions, crying and wailing. Li Dahai and his group didn't seem to be good people, and those bandits didn't dare to harass them.

The woman followed behind her, avoiding the prying eyes of many bandits.

In the end, Li Dahai's heart relented and he protected the woman among them. The bandits who made trouble looked at it, and they didn't dare to provoke it.

When they came to the city gate, many people carried large and small burdens and occupied the entire street. Ill-intentioned people are intimidated by the majesty of the officials and soldiers, and they do not dare to make trouble here.

Li Dahai and the others finally squeezed through the crowd and approached the city gate. There was also a fence set up by the officers and soldiers. The whole ten miles of land near the city gate was also cut off. A large number of soldiers were stationed inside, and the surrounding houses also became a place for officials and soldiers to stay.

The people stood outside the fence, begging the officials and soldiers to come forward to quell the chaos.

It's a pity that no one paid any attention.

Just thinking about how to get in, I happened to bump into Veterinarian Zhang wandering inside. Seeing Li Dahai and them, he hurriedly stepped forward and ordered the guards to say, "Let them all in!" ”。

Knowing the relationship between Veterinarian Zhang, the soldier was not embarrassed. put Li Dahai and his group all in.

"Wait here first, there's news, we'll go out of town." Veterinarian Zhang led them to an empty shop and explained.

At this time, there were many people sitting here dressed in silk and satin, and they obviously had some family backgrounds.

Later, Veterinarian Zhang came back with a soldier and told everyone to follow him. Li Dahai didn't suspect it, and followed everyone to the city gate.

I saw that the small gate to the left of the city gate had been opened. Under the eyes of the officials and soldiers, the people stepped across the city gate one by one with panicked expressions. Even though the officials and soldiers had explained that there was no Mongolian army guarding outside the city, the people still had doubts.

Li Dahai was not convinced of the words of the official army! But staying in the city is a dead end. So I thought to myself, it might as well be blocked.
