Chapter 208: Change
As soon as the three of them came out of the alley, they didn't take a few more steps on the street when they directly saw Zou Youqian father and son who were exploring everywhere.
Well?
Zhao Fuxiang was stunned for a moment, rubbed his eyes, and after making sure that he was not mistaken, he followed and motioned to Cheng Xingmeng and Zheng Haoyou beside him to wait in place, while he himself went up directly.
Zou Youqian's father and son have always had their backs to Zhao Fuxiang and the others.
The two of them came in from the gate of Qingshan Town, and they have been wandering around the main street purposefully.
Zou Youqian is eloquent, and he just found out some useful information from the mouth of a shopkeeper, and wanted to make persistent efforts to continue his efforts, but he was patted on the arm by the youngest son on the side.
Turning around, he noticed that Zhao Fuxiang was coming, Zou Youqian was stunned, blinked, and the three of them strode forward, one after the other into the alley in front.
Let the youngest son on the side go over to look at the wind, and Zou Youqian hurriedly communicated with Zhao Fuxiang as soon as possible.
"Second Brother Zhao, you came in early, but you have already found out something?" Zou Youqian was very respectful, especially Zhao Fuxiang came in earlier than him.
When Zhao Fuxiang heard this, he nodded very dryly, "I know some specific information, the granary in Qingshan Town caught fire yesterday, and the grain that was to be sent to Yangcheng County today was directly burned, and the county order and master were on fire in the county office,"
"That's why it's strictly inspected when you enter the city."
"Send grain to Yangcheng County?" Zou Youqian sensitively grasped the key points.
Zhao Fuxiang nodded affirmatively, "Yes, somehow, it was said that seven days ago, Yangcheng County was directly closed. ”
Zou Youqian frowned when he heard this, "Seven days?" At that time, Shanju had already returned from Yangcheng County, "and they knew that they were busy preparing for the escape."
"That's right," Zhao Fuxiang was also puzzled, "Qingshan Town's side, it was seven days ago," as for the rest, I don't know anything.
Zou Youqian is also helpless, "It seems that there is still a side problem here, that is, there is no rumor on the side of Yangcheng County, and we don't know," but it makes no sense to say this,
"By the way, Second Brother Zhao, the news I just found out is similar to that of you," Zou Youqian said, looking around vigilantly, and whispered, "However, I just heard someone say that the fire last night was wrong." ”
"Oh?" Zhao Fuxiang was surprised, "What's wrong?" ”
Zou Youqian hurriedly explained, "The man said that there was a lot of grain in the granary, so it had always been heavily guarded, but last night, the guards in the hands slept to death, so that the grain was on fire, and it was only the fire that was put out when the watchmen in the city found out,"
"But the fire was too big, and it was too late to put out the fire, and the fire burned down along with the surrounding shops."
Saying this, Zou Youqian couldn't help frowning, "I think, this is too much of a coincidence, how can anyone not find the fire for half an hour," especially not one person, but a group of people.
"Yes, it shouldn't be," Zhao Fuxiang chimed in.
Suddenly, thinking of a possibility, Zhao Fuxiang was shocked, and hurriedly looked at Zou Youqian, "Zou Lizheng, you say, could it be that this is artificial?" ”
Zou Youqian nodded fiercely, "This guess is very likely, and there is a high probability that they are thieves and thieves." ”
Hertz!
Zou Youqian's extremely bold guess frightened Zhao Fuxiang's eyes suddenly widened, and his body hurriedly took two steps back.
"This, this, this"
Zhao Fuxiang was scared stupid, and he stammered a little when he spoke, what is this picture?
Zou Youqian continued to take care of himself, "I heard that the person has relatives in the family who are officials in the county government, and he said that he was fighting the fire that night, and the county order was not in a hurry, and it is very different from now,"
Moreover, when the man was fighting the fire, he smelled a strong smell of oil, "as if a thick layer of oil had been splashed."
Zhao Fuxiang!!
The news that Zou Youqian said doesn't it just show that this fire started strangely?
Moreover, the county order only said martial law at the moment, and did not say that the whole city was arrested, which shows that they did not want to arrest people at all, on the contrary, the reason why they put on this posture was to make a big deal about the fire, "It is better to make the surrounding towns and cities all know about it."
When Zhao Fuxiang heard this, he took a sharp breath of cold air, "They want to make a light to go dark," the probability is that they directly ignore this batch of grain and keep it for their own use.
Zou Youqian touched his chin and sighed, "It seems that something really happened, and the county order here is likely to know, so he won't send food!" ”
Zhao Fuxiang nodded and cooperated, "Zou Lizheng, then what should we do now?" Let's go? "It doesn't seem like it's useful to stay.
"Let's go, it is estimated that Changle County has already fried the pot!"
Zou Youqian said that, sure enough, Changle County has indeed fried the pot here.
Since yesterday evening, a large number of officials have appeared in the city, pulling full of grain out of the city gate.
Because of this batch of urgent grain, most of the levies come from major grain stores.
Most of the food in Zheng Zhongcheng's shop was forcibly taken away.
The money was not given, but it was only said that the county government was in difficulty, and it would be said until the moment came.
Jung Jong-sung realized that something was wrong, and he couldn't go anymore.
He hid in the shop, looking at the officials who were patrolling back and forth outside, and regretted in his heart, he had run away in advance.
When the Li family left, although he couldn't help but inquire, but in the end he was not greedy enough, after learning that Yangcheng County did not store enough grain, and the county government might have to purchase grain on a large scale, he was moved, and took out most of the grain in the shop at home.
As a result, the white wolf who was gloved by the county government was empty, and the food taken out was lost, and all of it was planted.
For now, the grain shop will definitely be closed, but
What bothered Zheng Zhongcheng the most was how he was going to inform his family, taking advantage of the fact that Changle County had not yet been closed down, and running away with his family quickly.
On this side, Changle County was in a hurry, and on the other side, Zou Youqian, Zhao Fuxiang and others from Qingshan Town also hurried back.
After telling Zhao Furui all the news they had found out from Qingshan Town and the conclusions they had speculated, Zhao Furui immediately summoned the heads of each household in the team and started a small regular meeting again.
With the evidence brought back by Zou Youqian and Zhao Fuxiang, this meeting went quickly.
Everyone also realized the seriousness of this incident through the description.
Zhao Furui asked Zhao Shanzhou who was still in the team who had not returned.
The confirmation that everyone had returned, and instead of continuing to stay as originally planned, they left early and hurried to hurry.
And this time, after discussing with everyone, it was decided not to stop in Ping'an City in front of them for the time being, but to bypass it and go directly to the Qingzhou boundary.
And the south they want to go to is across the two states and counties of Qingzhou and Changzhou.
Because everyone knew that something was wrong, they were not dissatisfied with the hurry, packed their things and put them in the car, and drove away.
Zhao Yu followed in front of Li, following closely with his sore calves.
There is no way, the convoy is tight, except for the elderly, children under the age of five and pregnant women, other adults and children need to walk.
But in the end, it is a child, fifty or sixty miles a day, even adults can't hold on, let alone children.
Liu pulled a girl of his own with one hand, Zhao Xia was carried by Yuan, Zhao Chunhua was lying in Cheng's arms, and Zhao Yu was leaning on Li's thigh.
And the boys in the family are tired of Zhao Shanlin and other fathers paralyzed in their arms.
Sure enough, it was the children of the family who suffered the most from fleeing.
"What's the matter, it's not two steps to carry you," said Li, who was about to squat.
Zhao Yu hurriedly waved his hand, "No, I can go," her grandmother is old, and she can't always carry her.
Moreover, Zhao Yu has not yet reached the point where he can't walk, gritting his teeth, he can still persevere.
This one is thanks to her new gear.
Looking down at his shoes, Zhao Yu was still very satisfied with today's equipment.
This shoe is just made, made loose, the sole is thicker than several layers, walking is much lighter than before, and there will be no sore legs and feet before, and the situation that you can't start.
It's a lot better today than the first two days on the road.
Still, it hurts.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yu couldn't help but take a breath, and said in his heart that this escape would not be finished.
