I thought I could at least kill a chicken to satisfy my hunger, but it turned out to be ......

Although she was complaining about Tuoba Jiuxiao in her heart, in the face of such an old woman and a child, she was moved with compassion again.

So I picked up the stick noodle soup (let's call it soup) and took a sip, at least it was hot, and it was not bad.

After drinking, she smacked her lips and said with a very satisfied look:

"Well, it tastes good."

Then he took out two buns from his baggage, handed them to the child, and said,

"Little guy, I also have some food here, why don't you try it, is there anything delicious in your house?"

The boy looked at the old woman, who nodded at him, and then he trembled and took the bun and held it in his arms, but he did not eat it.

"Why don't you eat it?"

Lin Ling'er asked curiously.

The little boy finally spoke:

"I'll wait for grandma to eat together."

One sentence almost made Lin Ling'er cry, she hurriedly held the bowl and snorted and drank, and after a while, a bowl of stick noodle soup was in her stomach.

"I'm really sorry for the two of you, the family is poor, there is nothing to eat, this, this silver, let's pay it back to the two."

The old woman embarrassedly put the silver on the table, and Tuoba Jiuxiao glanced at it, but did not take it back.

He whispered:

"Old man, I'll just ask you a few questions, don't be afraid."

The old woman's eyes winced a little, and she hugged her grandson tightly, as if she was afraid of something.

Tuoba Jiuxiao knew something was different at a glance, so he said:

"Is there a portrait of us in the village?"

The old woman may have wondered at first whether they were the people in the portrait, but when he asked, she was sure.

She was so frightened that she fell to her knees, kowtowing and begging for mercy:

"A strong man spares his life, a strong man spares his life......"

Lin Ling'er hurriedly helped them up, motioned her to keep quiet, and whispered:

"Old woman, we are not bad people, we will leave immediately, you will not be in trouble."

The old woman looked at the two, in fact, from the moment they took out the silver to buy her food, she knew that even if they were wanted criminals, they were not the kind of people who robbed the house and robbed the house.

At first, she was for the silver, because life was too poor, and this windfall was better than nothing, but then Lin Ling'er's two buns moved her, and she planned to give up the silver, but after all, she was a wanted criminal, and she would definitely be afraid in her heart.

Tuoba Jiuxiao pulled Lin Ling'er away and said to the old woman:

"Looks like the old man knows who we are?"

The old woman nodded, then ran to the door, looked through the crack in the door, and then turned back and said cautiously:

"There are portraits of you in the village, and the village chief said that if you see it, you must report it to the government immediately, otherwise you will be guilty of the same crime."

"Are there any officers and soldiers in the village?"

He asked again.

The old woman shook her head again and again:

"No, no, who would have thought that you would flee to our backwoods."

Tuoba Jiuxiao thought for a while and said:

"Old man, let's go at once, and when we're gone, you go and tell the village chief that he saw us by the river, and if he asks us which direction we're going, you say we're going separately, one to the south and the other to the west, remember?"

The old woman thought for a moment and asked:

"If the officers and soldiers can't catch you, they won't arrest me, right? I have a little grandson at home, I can't be taken away by them......"

"Don't worry, no, after we get out of you, we will go to the village for a while, and we won't embarrass you."

Tuoba Nine Heavens.

The old woman nodded.

Then he pulled Lin Ling'er to the door, opened the door a small crack and looked out, at this time most people were having lunch, and there were few people passing by outside.

"Old man, buy you something."

He said.

The old woman shook her head suddenly, not knowing what he wanted to buy.

He took off the two hats hanging on the wall, put a silver ingot into the old woman's hand, and said:

"Thank you."

Before the old woman came back to her senses, he had already pulled Lin Ling'er and walked out.

"Are we really going to go around the village? What if it is seen by more people? In case they are outnumbered......"

Lin Ling'er asked uncomfortably while tying the hat around her neck.

"If you see children, give them a bun and tell them that if someone asks, they say that we are going to the south, south, west, and north."

He ignored her words, and just admonished.

She thought for a moment, and seemed to understand what he meant, in addition to the children by the river, the children of the village would also help them speak, so that not only would the old woman's words be believed, but would also successfully disrupt the enemy's line of sight, causing them to pursue them in different directions, dispersing their forces and increasing their chances of escape.

They walked towards the village, and whenever they saw the child, she would do as he said, until at last there were only two buns left, and he held her hand.

"These two are left to you."

He looked at her and said that there was a banter in his eyes, and she gritted her teeth in anger, but she had nothing to say.

In the end, he took her and the only two buns left and headed north in the direction of the Lingshui River.

This place is already two or three hours away from Jintan City, although they have been around for three or four days, but in fact, it is only two or three hours to walk in a straight line, he calculated, if he goes straight to the Lingshui River from this place, he should be able to arrive before dark, even if the people in the village go to deliver the letter just now, if Nangong definitely brings people to chase them, I am afraid that they have already crossed the river at that time, and after crossing the river, they have already succeeded for most of them.

Soon after they left, the old woman ran to report to the village chief as Tuoba Jiuxiao said, and the children who were playing outside heard the conversation between the old woman and the village chief, and they also came up to report one after another, some said that they went south, some said that they went west, and what the old woman said was completely right, and the village chief hurriedly sent someone to Jintan Mansion to deliver the letter in order to make meritorious service.

At this time, Nangong Jue, no matter how calm and wise he usually is, has already been tortured by Lin Ling'er at this moment, his thinking ability has plummeted, hearing this news, he has a splitting headache, his subordinates have been chasing them like headless flies for three or four days, one time someone said that they saw them in the east, and another time someone said that they saw them in the west, and then some people said that they went south, isn't it the way back to Jintan City to the south, do they still have to go back?

But if you think about it carefully, it is possible to go west, although Zhebei regards Mu Jiuxiao as an enemy, but the soldiers are dangerous, who can guarantee that Mu Jiuxiao will not go to Zhebei, the most dangerous place is the safest place, and he has not used this trick.

If you go east to Sinan, it is also a good choice to go back to Wani through Guò Sinan.

To the south is to return to Jintan City, does he still want to repeat his old tricks? Or is there anything unfinished in the city of Kintan?

There are traces of him in the east and west, and now some people say that they are heading north, is this a smoke bomb he deliberately released, or will he still take the water and escape?

At this time, Nangong Jue's brain was filled with all kinds of different thoughts, as if he had been split by five horses, pulling his nerves in different directions, and he felt that his head was about to crack!

No, he can't sit still any longer, he wants to change from passive to active, he has the most advantageous weapon in his hand, he doesn't want to use it until the last resort, but now he can't afford to spend it anymore.

He closed his eyes with his head in his hands, and a balance seemed to appear in front of him, and there were two people standing at either end of the scale, and he only hesitated for a moment, and the balance gradually tilted towards one end, and this tilted balance helped him make a decision.

"Shencheng."

"Yes, General."

"You can arrange the pursuit."

Nangong Jue dropped a sentence lightly and walked out.

"General, then you ......"

In the past few days, Nangong Jue has been personally in command, and he has slept for less than four hours in the past few days, but at this time he is leaving, is he giving up?

Unexpectedly, his voice suddenly became firm, and the previous fatigue disappeared.

"General Ben has more important things to do."

Shen Cheng silently looked at his back as he left, his thin back was arrogant and resolute, but it was indescribably lonely.

"But, the general......"

Shen Cheng wanted to say that he did not have the right to mobilize people, but at this time, Nangong Jue suddenly stopped, threw him a talisman, and said:

"The people under General Ben are at your disposal, as long as you can catch them, you will not hesitate."

After a pause, he added,

"Escort Xiao Zhengzi to me in the prison car......"

"General,"

Without waiting for his words to finish, Shen Cheng hesitated for a moment and said,

"Actually, last night, the prime minister ordered someone to take Xiao Zhengzi away."

This news made Nangong Jue angry, he suddenly turned around, and his angry gaze shot straight at Shen Cheng:

"Why do you say it now?"

Shen Cheng knelt on the ground and said apologetically:

"Yes, the prime minister won't let me say it."

Since it was his father's idea, Nangong would never say anything more, clenched his fists, turned around and left.

Flying on his horse, he galloped all the way back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The afternoon sun was blazing and blinding, and when he got off his horse, he suddenly felt a flash in front of his eyes and his feet, and if he had not held the horse's back in time, he would have almost fallen.

It was the sun that was so poisonous that he was a little dizzy from the sun, and he told himself so, and when he stood firm and shook his head, he felt sober, and the thoughts in his mind were churning like stormy waves.

"General, you're back."

The butler of the Prime Minister's Mansion hurriedly came out to greet him.

"Where's the prime minister?"

He walked non-stop to the mansion, intending to go straight to Nangong Qingfeng's study.

"Prime Minister, he went out last night and hasn't come back yet."

Nangong Jue's body cushioned forward, and stopped in an instant.

"From last night, to now?"

He looked at the butler in disbelief, and from the time he came in until now, he finally had time to look at the butler.

The housekeeper was frightened by his sharp eyes, and hurriedly bowed down, not daring to look up at him, now the entire Prime Minister's Mansion and even the entire Daegu are in a tense and depressing atmosphere, who dares to offend Nangong father and son?

Only the authentic way:

"Yes, that's right."

Nangong Jue seemed to think of something, his father took Xiao Zhengzi away and left himself, could it be that he had the same thoughts as himself?

But it's not quite right, if it's the same as your own thoughts, then you should do it with a lot of fanfare, why sneak around?
