The young man chased all the way, and in the border place, there was no imaginary peace and contentment in his eyes, but his eyes were only full of desolation, and he was a little flustered in his heart, if he didn't want to find Su Liuyin in a hurry, he would definitely not set foot in such a place again.

When Shen Rong was doing business with his father, he had come into contact with many merchants from the northwest, and he often heard rumors and gossip about the whole world. It is said that although the county seat of this border land is not as prosperous as the prosperous place of Yingtian, it is a place where the road passes, the road is not forgotten, the night is not closed, the north and south are harmonious, warm and hospitable, and it is a rich hometown with simple folk customs.

He couldn't help but miss his father a little, how he lived on the border of Yunnan, he was not worried that his father would have no money, the most important thing for this person to make money is to use his brain, find a way to make money, even if he has nothing at the moment, he will soon have a lot of money, although it is not as beautiful as in the capital, but it is also safe and happy, thinking of this, he put his mind at ease, and secretly thought about planning for the future.

As soon as the young man set foot on the land on the northwestern outskirts of the city, he found that on both sides of the post road near the county seat, there were already many beggars in rags, showing their skinny limbs in the autumn breeze, and some of their bodies began to fester, dripping with yellow water, but they were unable to heal and were full of sores.

What's more, some refugees died on the side of the road, but no one was buried, but fortunately in late autumn, there was no stench.

The young man frowned, and suddenly saw a few skinny children scuffling together in front of him, and when he looked closely, it turned out that he was fighting for a piece of bark, and a child was kicked to the ground, holding the "food" in front of him tightly, and while they were unprepared, he greedily put it in his mouth and ate it, and the children were helpless, and then punching and kicking him was already a waste of physical strength, so he had to disperse without love.!

Looking at the many young trees on both sides of the road, they were stripped of their thin skin, leaving only pieces of shocking whiteness, and the group of children just now gnawed on the white.

Seeing such a tragic situation, he was only immersed in deep sorrow, although it was difficult to react for a while, and he didn't know what was going on, Shen Rong also knew that he was out alone, although he was dressed as plainly as possible, in order to avoid being targeted by bad guys, he sold a long sword that looked quite powerful on the way to defend himself, and pretended to be a martial arts master who didn't care about the world, if he helped them at this time, he might be looted by them, and he didn't dare to risk his life, so he quickly distributed all the scattered silver on his body to the poorest refugees, Hurry away!

It's just that such bleak scenes are seen more and more, and finally it is not within the reach of one person, and Shen Rong can only sigh and concentrate on hurrying.

When he entered the county seat, Shen Rong began to inquire about the place where Su Liuyin was assigned, Su Liuyin was assigned to Suizhong County, who knew that those local people, when they heard the three words "Suizhong County", it was like hearing the extremely panicked jackals, tigers and leopards, they were terrified one by one, lest they avoid it, but they just persuaded him to hurry up and go back where they came from!

Not only that, seeing that he, a young man from a foreign country, inquired everywhere about the affairs of Suizhong County, and kept mentioning what girls were passing by, he just looked like he didn't know whether he was alive or dead, where and where he would go to what girl, and he couldn't avoid it! Many ordinary people looked at a few of them, and they were already looking at an unscrupulous young man who was thinking of spring, and he was sent to death for thousands of miles!

The doubts in Shen Rong's heart became deeper and deeper, but the curiosity in his heart also became heavier, and he had to figure out what was going on? This Suizhong County used to be the territory where Xiao Zhan was stationed, and it was originally a piece of land in Qingming, but now how has it become the object that the people can't avoid? What's so unseemly there? It made the local people feel silent. With deep concern for Su Liuyin, gradually, as he walked the streets and alleys to explore in many ways, he realized from the words of some residents who accidentally leaked: This Suizhong County was originally a rich place, but now it has become a "ghost town" in everyone's mouth, which is not only scary, but also the culprit of the depression of all industries and the sparseness of thousands of households in this border place!

Shen Rong was used to being pampered, and the refugees he saw outside Yingtian City on weekdays were far less miserable, and he saw the situation of the displaced people outside the suburbs, but now since he entered the city, looking at the cold street scene and the bleak people's livelihood, he has gradually become accustomed to it, and his eyes have become dull.

And now that he heard the news of Suizhong County, thinking that Su Liuyin was going to endure this torture, his eyes had become extremely cold again, and now the problem was not just as simple as finding Su Liuyin, although he looked useless on weekdays, but in the end he had some chivalrous heart in his heart, since it was the realm guarded by Xiao Zhan's brother, what did he experience? Why did there be a criminal who assassinated the prince's son, he naturally had to contribute to all the suffering people here, and he had to figure out the source of all this.

As he was walking the streets looking for people and clues that could provide him with more information, he suddenly found that next to a dilapidated house, there was an old woman with a sad face, who was counting something with a middle-aged man, and sighed from time to time, looking at it as a mother-son relationship.

Seeing the old woman's pale temples and tearful eyes from afar, the already low heart seemed to be suddenly touched by something, and he hesitated a few times in his heart, and tried to make a kind smile, so he stepped forward and saluted the old woman, asking what was difficult to understand.

After a simple greeting, Sedum knew that the middle-aged man's name was Lin Qing, and the old woman was his old mother.

The old woman saw that Shen Rong was a warm-hearted person, and looked like a chivalrous person in the rivers and lakes, so she complained to Shen Rong, "Alas! My son who is not angry, I finally have such a precious grandson, and this daughter-in-law has left early,......"

"What's wrong? I think Brother Lin Qing is honest and does his duty, but he doesn't look like a loser! Shen Rong said and felt that it was wrong, and asked again: "What's wrong with your grandson?" ”

"Young man, you don't know, our Lin family, has been five generations of single generations, my son finally asked for a daughter-in-law, the daughter-in-law had a difficult birth, and left such a precious grandson, but now his whereabouts are unknown, blame him for this uncompetitive Lao Tzu only gave him a day to say what chivalrous and courageous big man, now this Suizhong County is in trouble, he only left a letter and ran away from home, where is this Suizhong County where people can live! My dear dear, this son doesn't listen to the persuasion to go to this Suizhong County......"

After listening to this old woman, Shen Rong understood that it was also related to this Suizhong County, and he couldn't help but start to wonder in his heart, what kind of place is this Suizhong County? It's the existence that makes so many people frightened, but now that they have begun to have eyebrows, they quickly seize the opportunity to ask and understand!

"Old man, don't be anxious first, let's calm down first, it's useless to be anxious, why don't you tell me what happened in Suizhong County first? I'll help you analyze it! Ahem, it depends on everyone's wisdom! ”

Lin Qing was sad and had a deep helplessness, "Why did it become like this?"

“…… It's not all because of you, if it weren't for you, how could Xuan'er be in the situation she is in now? As soon as the old woman's words of reproach came out. That Lin Qing hurriedly lowered his head and did not speak, and the old woman continued; "I don't know how this year, it may be that this Gengzi Year of the Rat will not be quiet, originally there was a general in Suizhong County who was guarding there, the border was stable, and the people lived a rich life! But it is said that this general killed the prince and was wanted everywhere, this general is no more, and naturally there is no peace, this Suizhong County is in chaos, and after a night of bloody rain, there is a plague, and those ordinary people who are unarmed are all killed, this person is all dead, and the strange thing is that at night, the city will come back to life,......"

"You can't talk nonsense, the words of this ghost and god are unrealistic!!"

At this time, the old woman's son Lin Qing spoke, and was a little impatient with her mother's remarks to this stranger, and said:

"I'll go find this kid back, mother, you just stay in the house!"

"You kid, how many times have you said it, you just won't listen! It's not like I'm making a fuss, I heard that it's been haunted everywhere recently, if Xuan'er is gone, what's going on with you, but how can I live? The old woman said, "Tell me, if my grandson really goes to Suizhong County, this son will also ...... I'm thinking about waiting for my old bones to go, and this will also bring the child back by the way, but Qing'er won't let me live or die, you can help me evaluate it! ”

"Whatever it is, my son, I won't leave him alone!" Lin Qing's temper also came up, and he argued with his neck, "Mother, this Lin Xuan is my child, his mother left early, this father naturally wants to teach him to take the right path and be a chivalrous person, I don't believe in this ghost, I have to go and get this child back, Xiu'er exchanged her life for such a child, and now that she is gone, I am left with such a thought, I want to get the child back!" Just stay at home! ”

"You, you...... It's really damning! I'm so mad at you! How do you do this to your ancestors? "The old woman saw that her son didn't eat oil and salt, and she wanted to go to Suizhong County to find her grandson, and she was really angry enough!

"Old man, I think you're too worried." After more than a month of wandering, Shen Rong understood a lot of things, "Old woman, although I don't have as much knowledge as you, but in this world, there are some things that can't be heard, all of this has to be seen as believing, and hearing is false, this child is greedy for fun, and it is normal for him not to rush home for a while, as long as he doesn't do anything out of the ordinary, what harm can he have?" Let this big brother look for it, maybe he will find it! ”

"That's it!" Seeing that this young man with extraordinary bearing also supported him, Lin Qing was overjoyed, "Look, look at this young man who is from this big place at first glance and says so, mother, you, you will be suspicious!" Where would this kid go to such a place? When I leave now, I'll go and get Xuan'er back! ”

Just as he was saying this, Shen Rong heard some movement behind him, turned his head suddenly, and saw a man kneeling on the ground and suddenly exclaimed, "Girl...... Spare your life...... I've told you everything I need to say, what else do you want me to tell you? ”

When the young man heard the sound, he saw that it was a masked woman's figure, why was this appearance so familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere?
