Chapter 71—The Man Under the Cover of Night (I)
Silently restarting the update. Pen, Fun, and Pavilion www.biquge.info。。。。。
The continuous autumn rain finally stopped at this moment, although there are still some rains that keep falling, but it is just a small thing for people, at this moment the earth is plunged into darkness, there is not even a trace of starlight in the sky, after packing up the things he brought early, Zhou Zheng, who was tired for a day, just took a hot bath and lay on the bed with his clothes.
There seemed to be no sound in the night, but the silence was too quiet, and in the dark cave followed by the light of the torches at the entrance of the cave, several middle-aged men got up suddenly, and several people looked at each other and left the cave lightly, without making any sound between walks, obviously some trained good hands.
After the group gathered outside the cave, they walked towards the jungle in the distance, with a very purposeful purpose.
After climbing over a hill, a tower-like figure appeared in front of the pedestrians, and the tower-like figure always gave people an invisible sense of oppression.
To be honest, anyone who sees such a figure will feel like this.
At this moment, after the leading middle-aged man saw this tower-like figure, he took a deep breath and walked over to the front and said, "My lord."
After the words fell, the tower-like figure turned around, it was a middle-aged man with a huge body, I don't know how this middle-aged man looked, he grew such a huge man, and his appearance can only be said to belong to the kind of people who are placed in the crowd and can only remember their height.
"What have you found?"
The tall middle-aged man didn't have any nonsense, and directly asked the question he was most concerned about at the moment.
"Lord Hui, I originally wanted to mix in the refugees and enter the Imperial Village......
The man in the lead immediately told him what he knew, and he didn't know anything about the situation of the guards inside, except for the more than twenty guards he saw outside.
"Oh, according to what you said, you didn't even enter the Imperial Village, but you just had a general understanding of the situation outside, and it is ridiculous that there are only so many guards in the Imperial Village!"
The middle-aged man's words were extremely plain, but this group of people knew that they would only use such a flat tone when adults were dissatisfied.
"Big, my lord, my subordinates have also done their best, but who would have thought that the people in the Huangzhuang would not let their subordinates and others go in at all."
The leading man's words carried a hint of justification and panic that anyone could understand.
"Humph!"
The middle-aged man just snorted as he talked, but for the people below, it was like a heavenly sound, and he and the others had died a long time ago, so how could he say this.
Although it was just a word, these people knew that they had saved a small life, and immediately touched the non-existent sweat, and then stood behind the middle-aged man and waited for the next order.
"Thirteen, what have you found out?"
The middle-aged man's words rang out again, and a slight sound sounded in the jungle, and a man wrapped in a black nightsuit appeared on the top of the hill.
"My lord, after the subordinates disguised themselves as subordinates and knocked on the side inside, there were only more than fifty guards in this imperial village, and these guards were scattered."
After the person named Thirteen appeared, none of the above nonsense directly said some of the information he had investigated.
"An escort of more than fifty people? It's a lot, but it's not a big deal. ”
After saying this, there were suddenly many more black-clothed people in the dense forests around the hill, and after these black-clothed people appeared quietly, the middle-aged man's eyes looked towards the Huangzhuang that was flickering with a faint light in the distance, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
In the Huangzhuang, the villagers who lacked entertainment items fell asleep early, and in the entire Zhuangzi, except for the place where Zhou Zheng lived, only Zhang Xuan's room was still flickering with fire.
"Master, this is true, now so many refugees have run to stay next to Zhuangzi, and they don't know how much food they consume every day."
The female voice of the warbler Yanyan came from inside the room.
Inside the house, Zhang Xuan sat at the table with the account book and calculated how much food the refugees needed to consume these days, and when his wife said it, he was also a little impatient at the moment.
Immediately said a little unhappy: "What do you know about this woman?" Although we are short of food, but it has smoothed His Highness's heart, maybe now my name is memorized by His Highness, and in the future, His Highness wants to find someone who is handy, maybe he will transfer me from Huangzhuang. ”
Everyone wants to climb to a high place, as the so-called world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit.
Tai Shi Gong's words reveal the essence of human nature, and only interests can make many people come and go like this, and they run around with all their brains, even Zhou Zheng himself hopes to leave his name in the history books of later generations, and there are often few people who can ignore the word fame and fortune.
As soon as Zhang Xuan's words came out, his wife suddenly had no other opinions, although the housekeeper of the Huangzhuang seemed to be superior, but it was no different from other housekeepers, and even the status was not as high as that of other housekeepers in the city, so it was natural to try his best to improve his status in the heart of His Royal Highness.
Zhang Xuan was calculating the food to be consumed in his room, and at the same time, Lai Ying'er didn't know what she was doing in her room, and Deng Luoying was also a little dizzy when she saw the light in the room.
"Ying'er, what the hell are you doing, it's so late that you can sleep, maybe you have to get up early tomorrow to see if there is anything you can help with those refugees."
After Deng Luoying's voice reached Lai Ying'er's ears, Lai Ying'er just nodded her little head and then said: "Senior sister, I am not in a hurry to sleep for a while, and it is not too late for me to finish this hanging." ”
As she spoke, Lai Ying'er threw the tortoise shell in her hand to the ground.
After the tortoise shell landed, cracks immediately appeared, and Deng Luoying also looked towards the ground under curiosity, only to see that the cracks on the tortoise shell were crooked, but they were incomprehensible to others, but for Deng Luoying and Lai Ying'er, it was really trivial.
"Okay, junior sister, this is a sign of peace, you can always sleep peacefully now, right?"
Deng Luoying tilted her head and looked at Lai Ying'er, wanting to get the answer she wanted from Lai Ying'er's mouth.
"Hehe, sure enough, it's safe to sleep in the yard next to that old man."
After Lai Ying'er saw the hexagram, when she breathed a sigh of relief, she happily turned out the light and ran to the bed.
