Cooking is never difficult for children in mountain villages. In particular, Lu Zhao was an orphan very early on and needed to take care of himself. While the two men were busy working in front of the stove, Zhao Lingyun sat alone on the stone bench in the courtyard. What is left in the house is the back, and what falls on the body is the sunset.

When Lu Zhao fried eggs, he took a look outside. He felt that this back gave him a feeling full of sadness, just like his father felt when he was dragged to death. But soon, the fragrance of the omelette wafted out, and Zhao Lingyun, who was tempted, got up and jumped in and asked, "What are you doing?" ”

"Noodles."

Lu Zhao explained: "You don't have any rice to buy here for a long time, but you still have some pasta." ”

"Hmm."

Zhao Lingyun nodded, of course she knew that there was no shortage of meat in the border area, but there was a shortage of staple food. Whether it's rice or noodles, in fact, there is a shortage, and which one can be bought depends on luck.

"Brother Zhao."

"What?"

"This Miss Zhao is really beautiful."

"Hurry up and cook on the fire."

Lu Zhao reprimanded angrily, but I have to admit that Zhao Lingyun is really beautiful.

But this is not what they should think about now, the most important thing in front of him is that he must hurry up to see the general Cao, then hand him the yellow cloth bag in his arms, and finally ask him to send troops to rescue the villagers. As for how the things in the yellow cloth are related to the life and death of hundreds of thousands of people, it has nothing to do with him. And those villagers were indeed implicated because of his righteousness and bravery.

Jiang Twelve once told him that Yu Zhan fell into the hands of the Xiongnu woman and could not hide any secrets. But why did he return safely? And there was indeed no pursuer behind him, which had to put a question mark in Lu Zhao's heart.

Along the way, he never let the yellow cloth bag leave. As long as this thing is still there, the other Lu Zhao doesn't want to delve into it. At the border gates, everyone has their own way of living. Those who are mentally incompetent, unlucky, or weak are either dead or still struggling.

After making the noodles, the three of them moved to the table in the courtyard and began to eat. It's simple, but it's enough to eat. Lu Zhao and Yu Zhan's cooking skills are not low.

"I'm going to see someone later."

After eating and cleaning up, Zhao Lingyun was silent for a long time and held back a few words. She has to deal with the affairs of the family, and she has to give an explanation to her employer for the failed dart. Just because she's a girl doesn't mean she can't shirk this responsibility. The game can fall, but the reputation can't be ruined.

"Need help?"

Lu Zhao raised his head and asked.

"No, you don't."

Zhao Lingyun tried her best to keep her voice flat, she didn't want to bring bad emotions to others, especially the two benefactors who desperately saved her. But Lu Zhao could still hear a trace of irrepressible tremor and sadness in his voice.

"Do you know where the barracks are? Yu Zhan and I were entrusted to find a general here and give him something. ”

Lu Zhao looked at Zhao Lingyun with anticipation, and it was very simple to judge from the things at the city gate that this girl's identity was not ordinary. Asking her is definitely much better than running out on the street and grabbing a random person.

"I do know where the barracks are, not only do I know, but the whole city knows." Zhao Lingyun really lived up to his thoughts and told Lu Zhao an address.

She then left on her own.

In the courtyard, Lu Zhao looked at Yu Zhan and said, "You wait for me here, I'll do something first, and we'll discuss what to do when we come back." ”

"Hmm."

Yu Zhan nodded, with an uncertain look in his eyes.

After Lu Zhao left the courtyard, he discerned the direction and walked towards the barracks according to Zhao Lingyun's guidance.

The sun on the border is dazzling, and it doesn't take long for people to sweat. Lu Zhao pressed the package in his arms and didn't care.

There is more than just blood in the slaughtered city. There is also Smoke Willow Lane, where people's nervous nerves are relieved and drastic changes are vented. After every war, it was always overcrowded.

Peach Blossom Drunk in Smoke Willow Lane, Peach Blossom Drunk is the name of a courtyard full of peach blossoms. Peach Blossom Drunk is very famous, very big, very big. It is said that the only time Marshal Cao came to Yanliu Lane in his life was to get drunk with peach blossoms. The purpose is just to see the peach blossom drunk in the flower girl and the goddess of the flower in the city.

Of course, the people of the city did not believe this, and only regarded it as a drunken gossip. But it is undeniable that the appearance of the Hundred Flowers Fairy has been well-deserved for decades.

At this time, when the peach blossoms were drunk, a woman in white was holding a long sword and dancing. She dances with a sword, opening and closing, not like a woman. But with the sword dance, it is beautiful.

In the courtyard, peach blossoms fall, among them, beauties dance swords.

In the corner of the wall, where no one noticed, a young man in brocade jumped in over the courtyard wall. He seemed to be attracted by the sword dance, and shouted loudly: "Okay, be rewarded!" ”

Many of the guests looked back to see who had disturbed the feast and awakened them from their intoxication.

At this look, I suddenly found that no one knew him. The most important thing is that the peach blossom drunk is not something that can come with money, especially the sword dance of the Hundred Flowers Fairy, so you have to invite you to enter.

The old bustard, whose waist was still slender and his eyes were even sharper, saw that this young man was not brought by anyone present, and when he looked at the marks left by the slipping off of the corner, his face changed, and he immediately ordered: "Bring him here." ”

There are a lot of nobles with unusual statuses present, what if you hurt them?

Behind the old bustard, two turtle men with big shoulders and round waists immediately rushed out.

The young man sneered disdainfully, turned around and ran.

Just kidding, how could these two big men with arms thicker than his thighs be able to fight. Not to mention, it was also a helpless move to climb into the courtyard today.

Fortunately, Peach Blossom is drunk and considers himself noble, and there is no one guarding the door, otherwise he would really become a turtle in the urn today.

After running out of the door, the boy did not forget to turn his head and stick out his tongue at the two chasing thugs while running.

The young man's footsteps were extremely fast, and the two thugs really couldn't catch up with him. When he turned around, he happened to see Lu Zhao who was in a hurry to rush to the barracks, and after seeing Lu Zhao's strong physique, the young man's eyes turned, and he took three steps and two steps and rushed to Lu Zhao to stop.

Lu Zhao was stunned.

Looking at the eyes and movements of this brocade-clothed young man, it seems that the two are extremely familiar with each other. But Lu Zhao could be sure that they didn't know each other, it was the first time in his life that he came out of a small mountain village, and there, he had never seen such a handsome teenager. It is so delicate that every inch of skin that is exposed can be blown and broken. Even the girls in the mountain villages don't have such a thing.

The young man in brocade raised his head, looked at Lu Zhao with innocent eyes, and said, "Senior brother, these people want to kill me." ”
