Chapter 228: Entrustment
Zhao Wu and Dahan rolled on the ground, and the two of them stood up again and continued to run forward. The arrows fired from behind were all dodged by them.
Outside the city, in the northwest are rolling mountains, and in the southeast is a desert that cannot be seen at a glance, and in the miserable white moonlight, it looks even more vast and desolate.
They kept running southeast, through this desert of desolate people, the realm of the daimyo......
They ran for a long time, but there were no pursuers behind them, and the high walled city had become a continuous black line. Dahan stopped, and the last bit of strength in his body seemed to be drained, and he fell to the ground.
Zhao Wu hurriedly helped the big man to sit up, and ripped off a piece of cloth from his clothes to help him bandage his shoulders.
Dahan laughed and said, "Good brother, you have great skills, I thought that this information would not be delivered, and the sky of the daimyo was about to change...... Hehe, because of you, I am also worthy of my mission. I'm wounded, and this ghost weather is not good, so it's going to drag you down, so don't get caught up by the enemy. You go quickly, give the information to Mrs. Zhou, and you can't let either of those two people get it. I'll slowly crawl to the realm of the Daimyo, and even if I can't die in my homeland, my head will be turned that way, it's worth it. β
Zhao Wu looked at the empty surroundings, under the cold moonlight, there would be a few dead trees in the distance, behind was the city of the enemy country, the west was a faint group of mountains, the front was endless, the wind swept the yellow sand all over the sky, the sky was cold and frozen, and the air turned into frost...... The man in front of him was pale, his lips were dry, and the blood oozing from his shoulders stained the bandages red.
Intellectually, Zhao Wu knew that he should leave the Great Han at this moment, save his physical strength and return to the Daimyo, and give important information. But when he looked at Dahan again, he actually had a sense of familiarity, and he couldn't bear to leave him behind.
Zhao Wu said, "Uncle, if you insist on persevering and walking forward, you may be able to meet the person who will answer us." β
The big man shook his head and said, "No, I'm a drag, you can go by yourself." Uncle begs you for a private matter, when you go back, go to my house to see, and then bring the little girl over to my wife. She has a good heart and will treat the child well. His voice choked, and there were tears in his eyes, "Tell her again, I broke my promise, I am sorry for her, and I owe her love and debts to survive." My home is in ......"
On the twenty-fifth day of the twelfth lunar month, the people sent by the Min government to pick up the Qin family and Xu Lanzhou came back, saying that they had sent their mother and son to the Xu family in the north of the city.
Knowing that Xu Lanzhou was safe, Xu Lanyin was more relieved, it was a dream, and it was the opposite. She was also even more glad that she brought Xu Lanzhou to the provincial capital, otherwise she would have to worry about it every day.
Xu Lanting and Zhao Xingchen didn't want to have dinner here anymore, so they took Xu Lanyin back to their home.
"Miss grandma." Zhao Xingchen said.
"Well, I still miss my big brother." Xu Lanting said again.
Min Jia's little face became sad, and he blushed and held back three words, "I, also, go." β
These days, Xiao Nizi's expression is all smiling, and she suddenly becomes this little appearance, which makes people feel distressed.
Xu Lanyin said with a smile, "My house hasn't been inhabited for a long time, and it's so cold, I need to burn more charcoal pots in the house." Would you please go to my house tomorrow for a few days and stay for a few more nights? β
It is rare for Fujian households to return home, and the little girl lives alone at home, so it is better to take her to live in her own house.
Min Jia laughed again, nodded again and again, and said, "After eatingβdinner, let's go." β
This request was not too much, and Xu Lan didn't leave until a few people had dinner with her here.
Back at the Xu family, not only the Qin family and Xu Lanzhou were there, but even the Li family, Wang Sanni, and Wang Jincai came. Only the mother and son of the Lu family were left to take care of the house, and the old man Xu and his wife were asked to live to help watch the yard.
The Qin family had just had dinner, and they didn't look good. Wang Sanni and Wang Jincai obviously cried, and the Qin family seemed to have lost weight.
Even the little Xu Lanting and Zhao Xingchen felt that something big might have happened at home.
Xu Lanyin asked, "Mother, what's wrong with you?" β
Xu Lanzhou looked at Xu Lanyin and the others, and said, "Could it be that Lord Min didn't tell you the news of Zhao Wu's murder?" β
As soon as his words fell, Xu Lanting opened his voice and cried, shouting, "Brother Zhao is so powerful, he won't die......"
At home, except for Xu Lanyin, Xu Lanting is the closest to Zhao Wu.
Zhao Xingchen didn't understand what it meant to be killed first, but as soon as he heard Xu Lanting say it, he understood, and he also opened his voice and howled. He didn't have much contact with Zhao Wu, but he never forgot the fact that Zhao Wu saved him, and he often heard his aunt and family say Daddy, and he remembered Daddy very well.
Wang Jincai cried again. I heard that Zhao Wu was dead just now, and he seemed to have lost the direction of his life.
Qin, Xu Lanzhou, Wang Sanni, and Li looked at Xu Lanyin in fear. They knew that Xu Lanyin had the best relationship with Zhao Wu, and they were afraid that she would not be able to stand the news if she knew it. The Qin family agreed to come to the provincial capital again so happily just to relieve his daughter.
Xu Lanyin knew that this was fake news, and she seemed to be unable to stop crying in front of so many people, but she couldn't cry. I had to walk quickly to my room with a calm face and close the door.
A group of people followed the west side of the room, and persuaded her through the door.
Xu Lanyin had no choice but to cry and say, "Let me be quiet, I don't want to hear anything now." β
The sound outside stopped abruptly, and the footsteps went to the hall, and even the cries of Xu Lanting and Zhao Xingchen were much quieter.
Xu Lanyin had to lie on the bed and stand up.
It wasn't until Li Shi, Wang Sanni, and Wang Jincai left that she walked out.
Xu Lanting and Zhao Xingchen were still sobbing. Qin and Xu Lanzhou looked at her stunned, thinking that she was sad and stupid, and she couldn't even cry.
"Yin'er, cry if you want to, don't stand up, don't scare your mother." Qin said with red eyes.
Xu Lanzhou also said, "Sister, cry if you want to, don't suffocate people." β
Xu Lanyin said, "Lord Min has already told me about Zhao Wu's murder. But if his body is not found, he is missing. After a pause, he added, "Only I know how powerful Zhao Wu's martial arts are." How good his life is, only our family knows. He didn't fall to his death from the top of such a mountain, did he? β
Xu Lanzhou's eyes lit up and said, "Yes, he hung on a tree, and met his sister to save him." If you don't die in a catastrophe, you will have a blessing in the future, and this time you may be able to meet a noble person and become auspicious in trouble. β
Xu Lanyin nodded and said, "That's it, he won't die so easily." We only know about it, and we silently look forward to his return......"
Qin thought about it, Zhao Wu's kung fu was good, and his life was good, it was really possible that he would be saved by someone after being injured and come back in a few days. Moreover, she is now very superstitious about what her daughter says, and if she says that he is not dead, he must not be dead.
