The two walked and chatted all the way, and Mrs. Lurui's heart knot opened, and she told almost everything about herself to the men around her, and only then did Wan Linggen suddenly realize that this seemingly uninhibited Hu woman was no different from an ordinary Han woman, but the environment and experience of growing up were too strange.

The two walked and walked, and the sun was already turning west. Along the banks of the Yellow River, there are occasional passers-by and fishermen, all of whom are kind and kind, and whether they know each other or not, they will definitely greet with a smile, which makes Mrs. Yurui surprised and puzzled.

Wan Linggen didn't think so, seeing her big eyes flashing around, he asked with a smile, "Is there anything wrong?" ”

Madame Russ pursed her lips and thought for a moment and said, "Why aren't the people here wary at all? Why are you so friendly to strangers? ”

Wan Linggen asked rhetorically, "Is there anything wrong with this?" ”

Madame Extravagant suddenly whispered strangely, "I don't know, but we seem to be being followed." ”

Wan Linggen smiled: "Don't worry, they have no malicious intentions. In fact, he had already noticed that there were people following behind him, and the number of people had increased from one or two to a dozen.

"Really?" When Mrs. Yurui heard him say this, she suddenly stopped, and Wan Linggen looked at her puzzledly, "Why don't you leave?" ”

Madame Extravagant did not answer him, but turned and walked straight to those who were following her. When they saw her coming, they stopped a little bewildered and stood there looking at her.

"Hey, come here!" Madame Yurui beckoned to one of the young men, who looked at Wan Linggen, who was standing aside with a smile on his face, walked over, clasped his fists and asked, "This gentleman, do you have any orders?" ”

Mrs. Yu Rui deliberately straightened her face and asked, "We husband and wife are preparing to cross the Yellow River to the west, what are you doing with us?" ”

When the young man heard her say "husband and wife", he was stunned for a moment, raised his head and looked at her, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "I'm sorry Madame, forgive the villain's clumsiness, I didn't see that Madame changed men's clothes." He said and pointed forward, "Now the sun is in the west, it seems that the two of you can't catch up with the peach blossom village before sunset, there is no accommodation in front, and there are tigers and wolves in the mountains, we are all hunters from the left, accompany you for a ride, there is nothing else, and please don't be surprised." ”

Madame Russ looked the young man up and down suspiciously, "We are not related to you, why do you want to help us?" ”

Before the young man could speak, a few older people came up behind him, and one of them said with a straight face: "This lady is wrong, the south of the Yellow River is under the jurisdiction of my Kaifeng Generalissimo's Mansion, we are all the people of the Thunder God, and anyone who comes to our Kaifeng is our brothers and sisters, and mutual assistance and blind date are within our part, which everyone knows." He glanced at Mrs. Lurui and asked, "Dare to ask this lady, but is she from Hebei?" ”

Madame Extravagant shook her head, but the man frowned and said, "Since you are not from Hebei, how can you be completely ignorant of our rules?" Oh! He suddenly slapped his head and suddenly said, "I understand, you are going to find the Seventh Duke to be ordained, right?" ”

Mrs. Yurui was confused when she heard this, and when she was about to ask another question, Wan Linggen came over, hugged her fists and said, "This big brother is invited, we are looking for that Lu Qigong." ”

The man also returned the salute and smiled, "That's right." But you can't get to Peach Blossom Village today, there is our Orion's post house in the forest in front of you, so you can go there and rest for one night before leaving. ”

After Wan Linggen thanked everyone, he took Madame Yurui with everyone, and he asked as he walked; "Big brother, what do you mean by 'ordination' just now?"

The man exchanged a look with the people around him and smiled: "This little brother doesn't know, during this period of time, more and more people have crossed the south from the north to join our Dashuaifu, but they are basically not familiar with the rules of our Dashuaifu, so Qigong specially set up ten ordination centers at the Taohua Ferry, and the people who come must go to the place to receive preaching, and only after passing the assessment can they be allowed to enter my Kaifeng territory and move freely." ”

Wan Linggen's heart suddenly moved, and he frowned and asked, "Do you want to collect money?" We didn't have any money with us. ”

The man smiled, "It seems that the little brother really doesn't know anything about our situation here. Those seven dukes are the envoys of the Thunder Immortals, the deacons and people of my Great Marshal's Mansion, and all these things not only do not cost money, but also take care of the daily meals. ”

Wan Linggen was relieved when he heard this, he was really worried that Lu Qigong would relapse into his old state and come up with some other crooked ideas.

After walking for a while, Wan Linggen suddenly asked again: "According to this, there should be a lot of people crossing the Yellow River in the south, but we haven't seen many along the way?" ”

The man replied, "My little brother is right, these days are indeed much less. He looked left and right, and suddenly whispered: "That's because they got the news, my handsome family will soon wave his army to the north, and all the places he goes to are naturalized, so there are many fewer people from the south, and they are all waiting for my family's handsome Wang Hua's division to come as soon as possible." ”

Madame Rue looked at Wan Linggen with a strange expression, and a subtle smile crossed her lips.

As the last rays of the setting sun were swallowed up by darkness, Wan Linggen and Lady Lurui, accompanied by a group of hunters, went to a simple wooden house at the foot of the mountain.

The hunters lit torches around the hut, illuminating the neighborhood.

And Wan Linggen finally knew the reason for the caution of the hunters, before the night was deep, the sound of wolves howling and tiger roars was heard far and near, the sound was high and low, one after another, and it sounded creepy.

Wan Linggen didn't care much, but Mrs. Yurui's face turned pale, and she pulled the corner of his clothes stubbornly, refusing to leave half a step.

Through the conversations along the way, Wan Linggen also knew some basic information about the hunters. The middle-aged man who had been talking to him was surnamed Han Mingping, and the young man was his nephew Han Shulin, and the others were also members of their own family.

"Brother Han, has this place always been like this?" Wan Linggen asked, looking at the roar coming from the endless depths in the distance.

Han Ping shook his head and said, "It's only recently that it has become like this, and there wasn't even a roe deer here before. ”

Wan Linggen's gaze swept over them, Han Ping seemed to know what he was thinking, and continued: "Since the Thunder God Immortal came down and took charge of Kaifeng, we Orions have never worked as hard as before, every household in the clan has a field, and many people with some skills have gone to the workshop. We also temporarily returned to the mountains because there were suddenly many more wild beasts here, and in fact, we didn't really hit any prey. After saying that, he pouted and smiled.

Wan Linggen stood there thoughtfully, his gaze still looking into the distance.
