The winter night was long, Guo Hua and his party went back to sleep again, and the next day the sun rose more than a pole high, and everyone woke up.

After breakfast, Li Shengping ordered an entourage and ordered him to sneak back to Chang'an and bring someone to transport the body back. I gave the store some silver taels as a hush money, and then I set off.

The person pretending to be Guo Yu is called Wang Ping. The person who pretended to be Duguhuan was called Ma Cheng.

The two are very good at kung fu, and they are also clever, and they have followed the king of Guangping for many years, and they have great experience in adaptation and mediation.

The two still pretended to be Guo Hua and Dugu Huan, and rode in front.

Guo Hua and Dugu Huan also maintained their disguised appearance as usual, protecting both sides of the county lord, talking and laughing.

The snow was thick and slippery, and the horses walked slowly. At noon on the third day, the group was still eighty miles away from Luoyang.

Not far away is a village that is almost deserted, and wisps of smoke are rising, not like cooking smoke, but more like a fire set off to burn down the village.

Probably some rebels or rogues have come to ransack it, and it looks like it has just retreated.

Walking along the main road into the village, I saw that the houses had been burned down, and the black smoke I had seen before was emitted by the embers of the beams.

In the crackling sound of the fireworks, there was the sound of children crying, and it sounded like more than one child.

The group urged the horses to walk quickly, and followed the direction of the cry to a clearing.

The most eye-catching thing is the huge wooden cart in the middle, which is tied together by three wheelbarrows end to end. There were three or five swaddling babies in the car, and the babies in the swaddling clothes were crying.

There were seven or eight children on the ground, some of them were seven or eight years old, and some of them were eleven or twelve, all of them were grizzled and dirty, and their cotton clothes were also patchwork and patchwork, which was very down.

The children are surrounding a large iron pot, constantly adding some dry firewood into it, the porridge boiling in the pot is very thin, only a few pieces of sweet potatoes occasionally floating, which gives some comfort.

A group of children were so frightened that they couldn't say a word when they saw a tall man coming, and they huddled in a group, staring wide-eyed, looking at the two leaders.

"Little sister, are you all here?"

When the county lord saw this, he quickly turned over and dismounted, grabbed a slightly older child, and asked patiently.

The little girl shook her head.

"Are you from this village?"

The little girl still shook her head. However, it was the two children next to him who nodded.

It seems that these children are not just war orphans in one place, someone should have brought them together. I just don't know what those people mean.

Lord Shengping pointed to the cauldron, "You guys just eat this, can you eat enough?"

With that, he motioned to his attendants to take out the pancakes and jerky they were carrying, tore them apart and threw them into the pot.

Soon, an enticing aroma came out of the pot.

Encouraged by the food, the children gradually became bolder, and the fear in their eyes gradually turned into joy and curiosity.

A lot of chopsticks were placed in a bamboo basket on the car, Guo Hua led people to scrub them clean with snow, and bowls of fragrant soup were distributed to the children.

After watching the children gobble up for a while, the county lord asked again, "Little brother and sister, who brought you here?"

"It's uncle. ”

"Yes, yes, it's uncle. ”

"Uncle brought us here. ”

It seemed that the children did not know the name of the man. Moreover, it is likely that only one person rescued these children.

"Oh, where did the uncle go, why did he leave you here?"

"Uncle went to find milk. ”

"What are you looking for?" the county lord didn't hear what they were saying for a moment.

"Look for milk, milk, give a few dolls in the car to eat." ”

The little girl who had been shaking her head also let down her guard at this time, and pointed to the baby in the car and said.

Everyone came back to their senses, and everyone had no experience in feeding babies, and they stared at each other with big eyes. I didn't have an idea for a while, and I didn't know how to take care of the younger children.

While everyone was hesitating, a child shouted, "Uncle is back." ”

"Uncle is back. ”

"Uncle. ”

Several children jumped for joy.

I saw an unusually burly figure in the distance, carrying a scalper on his shoulder, and running over as if flying. The earthen walls and crosswoods under his feet were all collapsed and broken by him, making bursts of noise.

The man also noticed Guo Hua and his party, and a few arrows came whizzing, standing between the child and Guo Hua and the others. Although it was in a hurry, this position was very well chosen, and with the burly figure of the person who came, it almost perfectly protected the child behind him.

"It's him. ”

Guo Yu sighed in his heart.

Guo Yu recognized the visitor.

The strong man also saw Guo Hua—Guo Hua pretended to be Guo Ping—only to see the muscles on his face tighten, and his eyes were full of vigilance.

Suddenly, a suspicious look appeared on the strong man's face.

"Hey, you're the uncle?" Li Shengping saw the uncle coming, and hurriedly stepped forward, "Those little ones in the car, look-"

"Hey, hey, hey,"

"Uncle, these uncles added jerky and pancakes to our porridge, which is really fragrant. ”

"Uncle, eat it while it's hot. ”

The strong man gently lowered the ox, and then everyone saw that the man was carrying a calf that had just reached the full moon on his back.

The ox is an adult cow, not to mention more than 1,300 catties, plus the calf, this man carries them, and can walk like a fly, which is really a rare strong man in the world.

"This big brother is born with divine powers. Wang Ping, who pretended to be Guo Xuan, gave a thumbs up to the big man and couldn't stop admiring.

"yes, it's like a bear. Hahahaha. Ma Cheng, who pretended to be Duguhuan, also laughed and praised.

Both of them are in the military, and when they see such a strong man, they naturally admire them from the bottom of their hearts.

The strong man looked at Guo Yu in front of him, smiled honestly, and showed a strange light in his eyes. As if to say, this person is not really Guo Xuan,

The strong man waved his hand and motioned for the children to invite Guo Hua and others to eat together, and the children jumped happily, pulling everyone one by one, eating and drinking around the cauldron.

The strong man tied the cow and the calf to a tree honestly. Then he went and picked up a child, squatted down beside the cow, put the child's mouth to the cow's teat, and fed the child with milk.

A strong bear-like man, feeding his children, he looked into the crowd, as if looking for someone.

Soon his eyes fell on the real Guo Hua, and Guo Wu's heart sank.

He recognized himself. From the other party's eyes looking at him, Guo Hua was very sure of this.

Xian Yuyan said that the descendants of the Beast King Gu have many skills that surpass the common sense of human beings. Maybe something like the Transfiguration Technique can't hide it from them at all.

After feeding the babies, the strong man covered them again with a worn-out quilt. I scooped up a bowl of porridge and soup and walked to Guo Hua's side.

He patted Guo Hua's shoulder meaningfully, his eyes full of complicated expressions. There is relief, there is remorse, and there is some expectation. Of course, more of a simple kindness.

Guo Yu also smiled sincerely, "This brother, please take a seat." ”

It was said that it was a seat, but it was just a fallen beam, and there was a little snow on it.

The strong man's swarthy face showed a simple smile, dusted off the snow with a branch, sat down and sucked to eat and drink.

The strong man and Guo Yu both chose to believe in each other at the same time.

When the ghost Jizo ran away and the world was about to collapse, he chose to be the enemy of the old master and chose to guard the ordinary creatures in the world. and even almost died.

Afterwards, Guo Hua asked his senior brother Huiguo about his whereabouts several times, but Huiguo always shook his head and smiled without answering.

I didn't expect to meet again today.

The crowd was soon well fed and drunk. A few children touched their round bellies and muttered, I haven't eaten such a delicious meal for a long time, and I haven't eaten so full for a long time.

The strong man instructed the children to scrub their dishes and chopsticks clean with snow and put them back in the bamboo baskets.

He double-checked the three wooden carts to see if they were still sturdy enough. Then he put the big iron pot and the iron rack of the pot into the car. And he put the calf in the cart as well. Pulled over the cow and tied the rope around her waist.

The strong man said hello, and seven or eight children skillfully jumped into the car, and those who sat in the car sat in the wheel, and those who sat in the car sat in the car.

Guo Yu stepped forward, "Brother Song, what are you going to do next?"

The strong man looked into the distance, then looked back at Guo Xuan, and grinned, "The war has been raging for many years, and there are still many homeless children. ”

After speaking, he pushed the huge wooden cart and carried the children away slowly.

"The heirs of the Beast King Gu are committed to protecting the common people. ”

Xian Yuyan once said so.

"Brother Guo, do you know him?"

"Sort of. ”

"He's such a nice guy. ”

The lord of Shengping looked at it intently, until the tall figure of the strong man disappeared into a jungle.

Seeing her rare revelation of the innocence and kindness hidden behind the tricky and perverse, Guo Hua's eyes were full of pity, and a love rose from the bottom of his heart, a love that he wanted to do everything to protect.

She took his hand and shook it gently, "What are you thinking?"

Without waiting for Guo Hua to answer, he heard a commotion.

"Look—what's over there?"

"Is there a storm coming?"

"Bastard, where did the winter storm come from. ”

"But in that black cloud, there is really lightning and thunder?"

"Ahh

"Quiet—"

A few of the attendants seemed to see something terrible and shouted wildly.

Wang Ping and Ma Cheng saw that the county lord and the others were silent, and immediately stopped the panicked and noisy soldiers.

"County Lord, you can't go any further. Guo Hua clenched the hand of the county lord of Shengping and said firmly.

The thing I was worried about finally came, and the Nine Dragons Array really moved in the direction of Luoyang.

"It's really the sun coming out in the west today, looking at your serious appearance, I'm still a little unaccustomed to it," looking at Guo Hua's resolute expression, Li Shengping snorted, "What are you doing? You think that black cloud can scare me." ”

"Don't make a fuss. That's not a cloud. ”

"That's not a cloud, what is that? You just don't want me to go to Luoyang with you to meet that big beauty. ”

"What a big beauty, there is only the big fat pig in An Lushan in Luoyang, where did the big beauty come from. ”

"Mrs. Begonia, don't deny it. ”

"Hey, I'm all dazed by you," Guo Wei shook his head helplessly, "It's really dangerous ahead." ”

"It's dangerous to strike a thunderstorm and blow a wind? ”
