Because he was afraid of accidents, although he wanted to go back to Xiali Village to investigate, he was finally held back by Zhao Zheng.

Zhao Zheng, just in case, did not return along the same road, and ran west for two or three miles before running all the way to the north. Although it was a little far away, fortunately, Zhao Zheng was in excellent physical condition, and he was trampled under his feet again before he arrived in Handshan for half an hour.

"Whew...... Damn, this morning has been a toss-up......" Zhao Zheng stopped, squinted at the scorching sun overhead, and muttered to himself.

Just when Zhao Zheng was sighing, on the southern foot of Hanshan, Zhuang Zheng desperately waved his arms at him.

"Huh?"

Hanshan is not high, so the abnormal situation in the middle of the mountain will naturally be noticed by Zhao Zheng. Zhao Zheng knew something was wrong when he saw that Zhuang was waving his arm eagerly, and then he also waved his hand in response, and Zhuang saw Zhao Zheng respond to him and plunged into the dense bushes.

Seeing this, Zhao Zheng did not greet him, but sat on the spot and waited, he knew that if the two of them entered the bushes, it would become difficult to meet.

Zhao Zheng was so uncomfortable in the grass nest, and Dr. Liu's house was already in chaos. Zhang Mancang was sitting on the bed of the little medicine apprentice with a gloomy old face at this time, and on the side, Aunt Chen was sitting on the ground with her feet wrenched and crying. Zhang Mancang and Mrs. Chen were not the only ones in the house at this time, and Mrs. Chen's cry had already alarmed the people around her.

"Baby, it...... Alas...... Don't cry anymore, be careful about your body! Since General Zhang said that the baby is not worried about his life, he must have no worries about his life! Can the veteran still coax you? An old woman saw Aunt Zhang crying sadly, and couldn't help but feel uncomfortable for a while, and comforted while choking out old tears.

As soon as the old woman's voice fell, the onlookers inside and outside the house comforted me one by one. Unlike when Zhao Ji's family was watched, at this time, Dr. Liu's family was full of sympathy for Aunt Chen and praise for Chen Xiwa.

"The veteran is handsome...... Whining...... My son...... Woowoo woo ......"

Although Aunt Chen was so choked up that she couldn't speak at this time, Zhang Mancang knew what she wanted to say. For fear that the old man would not want to go out of the city to find a rebirth incident, Zhang Mancang did not inform her of Chen Liangsi's whereabouts.

Compared with Chen Liangsi's life, Zhang Mancang seemed to care more about the whereabouts of his old buddy's beloved apprentice, and in his opinion, a Liangsi could not compare to the mantle of Old Doctor Liu's lone seedling in any way. Zhang Mancang's mind was full of the safety of the little medicine apprentice, and at this time, the old woman cried before meeting, and her heart couldn't help but feel irritable.

Zhang Mancang didn't want to waste any more time here, so he wanted to get up and walk outside the house, but just before he could take a step, an old man squeezed out of the crowd in a panic and knelt on the ground and bowed: "Zhang ...... Zhang Jiangshuai, the people of Ping'er have something to tell you! ”

"Oh?"

Zhang Mancang hurriedly said: "Hurry up!" ”

The old man bowed respectfully when he heard this, and then said: "When the Buddha dawned, Xiaomin was also there, and what Chen's sister-in-law said was not bad, but she missed one person, and the general might as well go there and ask." ”

"Where?" Zhang Mancang asked.

"Naturally, it's Zhao Ji's family!"

The old man who spoke was naturally Wang Laohan, who was next to Dr. Liu. Wang Laohan paused and continued: "If it weren't for Li Zi and the two divisions coming, Xiaomin would not have learned about Ping'er's disappearance, he just thought that Ping'er was disturbed in the middle of the night and snooze, where would he have thought that such a thing would happen!" Old Doctor Liu has been kind all his life, and his treatment of Zhao Ji's family is naturally different from ordinary people, and Ping'er has been influenced by Old Doctor Liu since childhood, so he has a good relationship with Zhao Zheng, the son of Zhao Ji. The old people thought that the veteran commander might as well go to Zhao Ji's house to have a look, and Xu Ping'er was with Zhao Zheng at this time! ”

"Hmm......"

Hearing this, Zhang Mancang stroked his white beard and thought about it, then shook his head slightly and said, "How can there be a master who loses himself but has nothing to do with himself?" Ping'er knows his temperament very well! No way...... It can't be ......"

"What the general said is extremely true! It's just that Zhao Ji's son often goes out of the city to collect firewood, and he is familiar with the outside of the city, and Xiaomin is afraid that Ping'er will go out of the city with Zhao Zhengxiao'er...... Hiss...... That's a problem! ”

Wang Laohan's words made Zhang Mancang feel a pang in his heart, and when he thought of the dark waves surging outside Handan City, his face couldn't help but look ugly.

Zhang Mancang nodded, motioned for Wang Laohan to get up, and comforted Aunt Chen: "Don't cry anymore, baby, you will come back in a while!" ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Mancang shook his head helplessly, "This general will inform you of the matter at this time, so that you are ready to take care of it!" If it is not limited in the military...... Alas......"

Zhang Mancang sighed, looked around the grass hut that was too familiar to be familiar anymore, and then walked straight to the outside of the house, and the "spectators" huddled outside the house spontaneously lined up along the street and knelt on the ground when they saw this.

"Drive!"

Zhang Mancang ignored the untouchables in the streets and alleys who kowtowed to him, turned over and shouted softly, and the snow-white war horse lifted its hooves and walked away.

The place where Dr. Liu lived was not far from Zhao Zheng's house, and after a while, a dilapidated thatched house was in full view of Zhang Mancang.

Zhao Ji was completely unaware of Zhang Mancang's arrival, and at this time, she was holding a Qin short knife, with tears hanging from the corners of her eyes, and smirked stupidly.

"Are you really going to get through it......"

The door was closed, making the already dilapidated grass house even more gloomy, Zhao Ji's face was cloudy at this time, and she kept muttering.

Just as Zhao Ji was staring at Qin Short Knife and thinking about flying, a sudden sharp knock on the door interrupted her thoughts.

"Is Zhao Ji at home? Open the door, open the door! ”

There was a quick knock on the door, and an old voice mixed in.

"Hey...... Hey......"

Zhao Ji was frightened by the sudden call to the door, and responded hastily, and got up to open the door with a short knife into the quilt.

With a "squeak" the door opened, an old face of vicissitudes entered Zhao Ji's eyes. Zhao Ji recognized that the person was Zhang Mancang, so when she saw the veteran handsome man wearing a battle robe with a dignified face, she couldn't help but feel apprehensive.

"Little ...... Xiaomin Zhao Ji has seen the veteran handsome ......"

Zhao Ji took two steps back, then bowed her head and bowed timidly.

Zhang Mancang ignored Zhao Ji who was kneeling on the ground, but walked towards the house, because the room was dark and damp, a somewhat pungent musty smell made Zhang Mancang frown slightly.

After a cursory look at the house, Zhang Mancang opened his mouth and asked, "Where is your son?" ”

When Zhao Ji heard that Zhang Mancang was looking for his son, her expression suddenly panicked, "Return...... Back to the general, my son went to Hanshan to collect firewood, and he hasn't come back yet......"

"Huh? Collecting firewood...... What time is this, and what firewood are you picking up? Zhang Mancang pointed to the sky outside the house and asked.

"Back to the general, just because ...... It's just that the child was greedy for a while and picked up firewood by mistake early, so he ......""

Before Zhao Ji finished speaking, she was stopped by Zhao Mancang's big hand, "Has Ping'er ever been here today?" ”

When Zhao Ji heard Zhang Mancang say this, she knew that Zhang Mancang was not here to find her son this time, and the stone that was originally hanging in her heart fell to the ground instantly.

"It turns out that this old thing is not here for Zheng'er......" Zhao Ji secretly exhaled and muttered in his heart.

Zhao Ji shook his head and replied: "Back to the veteran handsome, Ping'er is not in the future Xiaomin family today, the veteran is handsome, what's wrong with Ping'er?" ”

"Zhao Ji, Ben Shuai has something important to find Ping'er, if you deliberately lie and conceal it, you can know the consequences?" Zhang Mancang glanced at Zhao Ji and said coldly.

Zhao Ji said with fear on his face when he heard this: "Xiaomin doesn't dare to ......"

Seeing this, Zhang Mancang knew that Zhao Ji was not lying to himself, and he didn't want to waste any more time here, so he had to give up.

"Huh?"

Just as Zhang Mancang was about to turn around and leave, the torn quilt on the earthen kang suddenly caught his attention.

"Huh? Qin short knife! ”

Although the short knife was stuffed into the quilt, Zhao Ji did not hide the short knife because of a momentary panic, and a small piece of the handle happened to be exposed. After all, Zhang Mancang had dealt with Qin Jun all his life and was extremely familiar with this kind of knife, so although he only had a small piece of the handle outside, he still knew it at a glance.

"Shhh...... How could she have a Qin short knife! Damn, it seems that this Zhao Ji is lying to Lao Tzu? ”

Thinking about it, Zhang Mancang's old face instantly turned cold and blue, and just as he was about to attack for this, a series of rapid shouts from outside the house suddenly came into Zhang Mancang's ears.

"The veteran is handsome...... Veteran handsome ...... Flat...... Ping'er is back! ”

"Huh?"

When Zhang Mancang heard this, he saw a young man panting and shouting at him with some excitement. Turning around and hurried a few steps, Zhang Mancang hurriedly asked after walking out of the door, "When?" ”

When the young man heard this, he quickly kowtowed and knelt down and bowed: "Veteran Shuai, as soon as you walk on your front foot, Ping'er will come back." ”

"Oh...... Hiss...... So what's wrong with him? Zhang Mancang asked.

The young man shook his head, "Back to the veteran general, Ping'er is fine, but she looks extremely tired......"

Zhao Mancang couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and he no longer paid attention to the young man kneeling on the ground, and after turning over and getting on the horse, he hurried back along the same road again. In less than a few minutes, Zhang Mancang's war horse appeared at the door of Old Doctor Liu's house again.

At this time, there seemed to be more people gathered at the door of Old Doctor Liu's house than just now, Zhang Mancang didn't pay attention to it, and after getting off the horse, he squeezed straight into the house.

"Fuck, get out of the way of the general, get out of the way......"

Zhang Mancang scolded while pulling the people in front of him to both sides, and the people who were pulled looked angry, but when they saw that the person who pulled them was Zhang Mancang, who was dressed in armor, they all closed their mouths with great interest. In this way, Zhang Mancang came to the little medicine disciple like a broken bamboo.

At this time, the little medicine apprentice was full of tiredness, and he replied to the questions asked by the people around him. And just as the little medicine disciple yawned repeatedly, a swarthy old hand as dry as tree bark was thrown in his face.

"Damn, your master is dying, and you still go out to wander, see if Lao Tzu doesn't kill you!" As he spoke, he pulled back again, directly knocking the little medicine disciple to the ground.

The sleepy little medicine apprentice was crooked on the ground at this time, covering his face, looking at Zhang Mancang who was angry and angry, and Wang Laohan on the side saw this and fell to his knees and kowtowed......

"Huh? How to say! Zhang Mancang asked with a cold face.

Wang Laohan bowed to Zhang Mancang, and then told Zhang Mancang everything he knew from the mouth of the little medicine disciple. Zhang Mancang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after hearing this, "Damn, it's another false alarm!" Zhang Mancang muttered in his heart.

Looking at the little medicine apprentice who was knocked to the ground by his anger, Zhang Mancang suddenly felt a little embarrassed with black lines on his face. At this time, the little medicine man who fell to the ground didn't know if it was because he couldn't bear the pain on his face or because he was more and more aggrieved in his heart, so he cried out with a pout......
