The echo was still hovering in the woods, and suddenly a figure came out of the woods, "Mo shè, Mo shè, it's me!" ”

The person who came was the drunkard, and I saw him running quickly, waving his hands in a panic, shouting.

Li Qi and the others all breathed a sigh of relief, but the tense atmosphere was still not lifted, and the whole army was still in a state of readiness.

"Brute, don't eat it, if you eat it again, you'll die."

The drunkard rushed straight to the mount that was grazing in front of the woods, kicked the horse in the buttocks, and then leaped and rode towards Richie.

In an instant, the drunkard came to Richie.

"What's going on inside?" Li Qi hurriedly asked.

"Inside."

As soon as the drunkard said two words, he suddenly stopped, frowned at Li Qi, and said, "Like." It's too much of a resemblance. ”

"What is too similar?" Richie was inexplicable to hear it.

The drunkard said: "Bu Shuai, you are honest, is this a deliberate design to harm me?" ”

"I-I designed to harm you?" Li Qi was confused by him, and roared: "You have nothing to do when I am idle, and the design will harm you." Tell me, what's going on inside? ”

"That's true, you don't have that skill now." The drunkard smiled a little embarrassedly, and said: "When I first entered, I found that there were a total of five people inside, they saw that I came alone, and they were ready to come forward to capture me, but they were almost caught by me, they saw that they couldn't beat me, so they quickly ran away, but not to mention, those boys ran very fast, there is the skill of Maqiao when he was ten years old, I wasted a little energy, caught up with one, knocked it unconscious, and was just about to bring it back, but suddenly fifty or sixty archers appeared, you know that I am most afraid of bows and arrows, but fortunately I am clever, used the faint boy as a cover, and then escaped. ”

When Yue Fei and the other generals heard this, they all felt incredible, it was really terrifying that one person could retreat in the face of fifty or sixty archers.

Li Qi was not surprised, you must know that this drunkard faced more than a dozen first-class killers, and could still ride a horse in a narrow alley, and did not take those people seriously at all, of course, did not take him seriously, and asked: "Then did they chase them out?" ”

"Don't blame me for this, I've tried my best to seduce them, but they won't chase after a while." The drunkard shook his head rather depressedly, and said: "But those people are definitely not ordinary thieves, judging from their cooperation with each other, they must have undergone strict training, and you don't have to be poor by the Dragon Guards, but I went and changed to Maqiao, haha, then I don't know." ”

Rigorously trained? Could it be? If that's the case, that's bad. Li Qi frowned, and his expression looked very worried.

Ma Qiao said angrily: "Drunkard, you don't have to look down on people, if you didn't run fast, I would still be ready to go." ”

The drunkard said, "You can go now, too!" Maybe they haven't gone too far, and let the teacher see how much progress you have made in the past two years. ”

"Just go, I'm afraid of anyone."

"Have you two had enough?" Li Qi shouted in a deep voice.

The two of them turned their heads away at the same time, like two three-year-old children. Li Qi was also helpless in his heart, when was this, these two idiots were still in the mood to say this. said: "Drunkard, have you seen clearly, there are really only fifty or sixty people inside?" ”

The drunkard said angrily: "Bu Shuai, in that case, how do you tell me to see clearly, anyway, I only saw so many people, as for whether there are people inside, then I don't know." ”

Yue Fei said cautiously: "Bu Shuai, this may still be the enemy's trick to lure the enemy, and it is not appropriate to act rashly. ”

"I know that." Li Qi nodded, his heart was made angry by this series of strange events, and said: "Since we have reached this point, we have no way to retreat, and we order the whole army to move forward at full speed, and strive to rush to Linyou County before dark." ”

"Yes."

The army immediately accelerated and moved forward, and after about half an hour's journey, it finally entered Linyou County, Niu Gao suddenly pointed to the right and said, "Bu Shuai, look at the place." ”

Li Qi turned his head to look, raised his eyebrows, and saw that there were some farmers cultivating in the field not far away, about 20 people, some old people, women and children, scattered everywhere, but in the face of this whole field, this person seemed very small.

Li Qi originally wanted to ask someone to go over and ask, but after thinking about it, he still chose to go in person.

Li Qi took the drunkard, Ma Qiao, and Niu Gao to the four who were cultivating the field. When the four of them saw Li Qi and the others coming, they all stopped what they were doing, and looked at them with fear in their eyes.

One of them, a middle-aged man in a sackcloth shirt in his forties, was afraid and said, "Who are you?" ”

"Oh, don't be afraid, we are going to Weizhou's army, passing through here." Li Qi smiled slightly.

"It turned out to be a military master, and the villain has seen several military masters." The middle-aged uncle saluted in fear. The rest of the men also saluted.

"You don't need to be polite." Li Qi smiled and asked, "I said, uncle, how come a few of you are cultivating here, are all these lands yours?" ”

The middle-aged uncle hurriedly said: "How can a villain have this ability, just these three acres of land are villains." As he spoke, he gestured with his hand.

"Oh? So why don't other people come and farm? ”

"This."

"But it doesn't hurt if you say it's okay, I'll just ask."

The middle-aged uncle nodded and said, "Oh, this matter has to start from half a month ago, I remember that night, overnight, most of the villagers in the county disappeared at the same time, leaving only more than 30 families." ”

"All the people of a county are missing?" Li Qi was surprised.

The middle-aged uncle said honestly: "The villain is not very clear, I heard that those people who left were looking for food." The military master didn't know that there had been a famine in Linyou County for more than half a year, and many people had already left. ”

"Looking for food?"

Li Qi and Niu Gao glanced at each other, and then asked, "Then why are you still here?" ”

"The villains are reluctant to give up these few acres of land." Saying that, he sighed heavily, and said: "It's a pity that there are so many fields, but no one cultivates them, this year is much better than last year, if the villagers can hold on for a few more months, it will definitely be a bumper harvest year, alas, this is all a natural disaster." ”

Li Qi said: "Besides, is there anything special going on around here?" ”

The middle-aged uncle thought for a while, and then said: "There is something, but it is not in our Linyou County, the villain heard that there is a military ration in Qishan County that has been robbed, and I don't know if it is true, the villain has lived here for decades, and it is the first time he has heard of such a thing." ”

Li Qi asked again: "With so many people left in your county at once, how did your county government deal with it?" ”

The middle-aged uncle said bitterly: "When there was a famine last year, Nazhi County was afraid that the villagers would rob him of his food, so he ran away with his family at that time, and now there is only an empty county government left. ”

Ma Qiao hated: "Another dog official." ”

It's really that the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, the officials of the DPRK and the Central Committee are like this, and the same is true for the small magistrate, when encountering difficulties, the first thing that comes to mind must be to escape. Li Qi said: "Then no one cares about this matter?" ”

"The prefect has been here a few times, but there is no food, even if there are more prefects, it is useless, and besides, no official wants to come here." The middle-aged uncle shook his head helplessly, his expression looking very depressed.

It seems that as the prefect said, there was no rebellion in the local area, otherwise it would be impossible for no one to know about this journey, and this does not want anyone to rebel. Li Qi nodded, and he wanted to ask about it, and it was not too early to see that it was too late, and said, "Okay, uncle, I won't delay your cultivation, farewell." ”

"Master Jun walks slowly."

Li Qi returned to the team, and Yue Fei hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Bu Shuai, how is it?" ”

Li Qi shook his head and said, "Let's go, let's go to the county seat." ”

The army marched towards the city of Linyou again.

On the way, Li Qi kept silent, thinking about the words of the uncle just now, and suddenly frowned: "No, no." ”

Ma Qiao said: "What's wrong? ”

"I don't know." Li Qi shook his head and said, "Ma Qiao, do you think that there is something wrong with that uncle just now?" ”

Ma Qiao was stunned and said, "No! ”

"What's wrong?" Li Qi was in a daze, and suddenly he opened his eyes suddenly, and said, "I thought of it, Niu Gao, you quickly send someone to arrest a few people for me." ”

"Huh?"

"Go."

"Oh."

Niu Gao hurriedly returned with more than ten people.

Li Qi clenched his right fist and said in annoyance: "Damn, I even ignored such an important detail." ”

Ma Qiao was surprised: "What details?" ”

Li Qi said: "That uncle is not a farmer at all. ”

"How so?"

"Do you remember that they all pulled their pants down above their knees, and the rest of the people's legs looked very rough, which was obviously caused by a long time in the fields, and the middle-aged uncle's knees were not rough at all, so he was by no means a farmer."

As soon as the words fell, Niu Gao rode over and panted: "Bu Shuai, those people are gone." ”

Li Qi's eyes flashed, and he said: "Sure enough, it's a pity that I was so focused on the military rations at the time that I didn't pay so much attention, but what is their purpose here?" ”

After thinking about it for a long time, Wu Zi was at a loss.

Niu Gao said: "Bu Shuai, what should we do now?" ”

"Let's talk about advanced counties."

Hurrying slowly, Li Qi finally rushed to the county town of Linyou before dark, but there was not a single figure inside, it was an empty county, lifeless.

Regarding this point, Li Qi had already prepared in his heart, because it was too late, and he didn't have any clue, so he could only stay here for one night first, so he immediately ordered Yue Fei and the others to build a defense in case they were attacked.

After dinner, Li Qi gathered all the generals in the empty county to discuss what to do next, but after discussing for a long time, he did not come up with a solution.

Just as everyone was distressed, there was a sudden commotion outside.

Li Qi's heart sank, and he said, "What happened outside?" ”

"Report."

A soldier walked in and said, "Qi Qi Bu Shuai, just now a cold arrow suddenly came outside." So saying, he presented an arrow, but saw a small roll of cloth tied to the arrow.

Li Qi hurriedly took off the cloth scroll and opened it to take a look, but saw that it was written on it, "Yu knows the whereabouts of the military rations, and quickly go to the Jade Girl Pond in the south of the city." ”。 (To be continued.) )
