They lacked a lot, clothes and items they needed to travel in the future, etc., and they were also waiting for news from Zhu Quan.

Three days later, Cai Dacheng received a reply from the prince Changzai, and he had sent someone to help handle the minerals in Yixian County, and he had also arranged for the candidates for Huozhou Prefecture.

There are commanders in Huozhou, and the bullies, corrupt officials, and bandits in those places are assisted by the commanders to solve the problems of the new government, and Cai Dacheng must rush to Yizhou immediately, because if it is not rectified in time, there may be riots.

The government is incompetent, corrupt officials are rampant, bandits are rampant, the people are displaced due to disasters, and the chaos is in dire straits, and it is in urgent need of someone to help solve it, and the same is true in Quzhou.

Cai Dacheng couldn't do it, and he no longer thought about going to Huozhou, so he could only leave the Wang staff that the prince asked him to take with him at that time, and let him assist the people sent by the prince to solve the affairs of the county and Huozhou.

As for himself, he ordered Zhu Quan to transfer directly from Huozhou to Yizhou, and he set off from Yixian County with the rest of the people.

The road is difficult, Zhao Jiao has a deep understanding now!

The official road is so bumpy that you want to vomit, because it is all low-lying dirt roads, and only the towns can see the relatively smooth stone roads.

Because it was another rush, her whole body was turned upside down like a shelf for a few days.

couldn't stand it, so she asked Cai Dacheng to take her on a horse, but she refused to go back to the carriage even if her buttocks were worn out by the saddle and her legs were worn out.

Su Xuan couldn't get any better, the little old man was pale and weak, and finally learned Zhao Jiao to ride a horse.

The group ate and slept in the open, and only arrived at the boundary of Yizhou a month later.

At this time, the old, weak, sick and disabled are all gone, because they have all been trained into cavalry by Cai Dacheng, although there is still a little distance from the real cavalry.

Near noon that day, they arrived near a village in Zhangcheng County, Yizhou, and wanted to find a nearby place to rest and eat.

This village is close to the official road, and it stands to reason that there should be a large population, but it is almost noon, and there is no one in the distance.

Zhao Jiao felt strange, how could there be no one to eat in such a big village?

Cai Dacheng sent a soldier over to check, and took out water for Zhao Jiao to drink.

Along the way, Zhao Jiao's face was slightly different from the porcelain white in Beijing, and it was obvious that she had seen wind and frost.

Although it is not as tender as before, it makes people feel very healthy, with a slight wheat color.

The body is also vigorous, no longer weak willow to support the wind, and has become heroic.

For such a change, Cai Dacheng is both happy and distressed, if it weren't for him, how could she be thousands of miles away from home?

But it is also because of her company that this journey has made him feel very interesting, no longer feel that the road is far away, and he will not feel lonely and melancholy in his heart.

"Report! Checkmate! There was an accident in the village in front, and there was no one alive! The soldier sent in return, interrupting his musings.

"What? Let's go, let's go! Cai Dacheng was surprised, this village is close to the official road, is it a bandit?

At this time, it was a sunny April day, but Zhao Jiao felt cold!

As far as the eye could see, there was not a single living mouth in every household, all of them fell in a pool of blood, and their deaths were extremely miserable.

If she had lived in her previous life at this time, would she have seen such a miserable corpse? Even if it's a car accident, it's just that!

"General, judging from the pupils and corpses, these people have been killed for no more than an hour."

Except for Zhao Jiao, the rest of the people at the scene were all close to check, even if they vomited, they had to continue, such as the two sons of the Su family.

In Su Xuan's words, this is a living textbook, and let them know in advance that dead reading will not solve real cases.

After more than half an hour, the guards did not find a place to live, so they were ready to find a place to eat first, and then find a way to settle down.

When she was about to leave the village, Zhao Jiao suddenly heard a child crying, but immediately stopped again, she stopped her horse, this sound should be a very small child!

Not only did she hear it, but most of the people present heard it.

Following the sound, the guards found five children, three boys and two girls, the eldest seven or eight years old, and the youngest only a few months old.

When they were searched by the guards, they trembled all over, thinking that they were about to be in the same disaster as their parents, but they were all very ambitious and silent, except for the youngest baby girl, who was still crying.

There was only one woman present, Zhao Jiao, she got off the horse and walked to the children and half-squatted to pick up the baby girl, the child holding the baby girl was only five or six years old, and she couldn't bear it at all.

"Don't be afraid! We were passing by to ask for some water in your village, but we didn't expect to see such a tragic incident.

If you know about the bad guys, tell us about it, and we will do our best to help your family find the killer and get them punished.

And you children, there are no parents and no family, eating and sleeping will be a problem in the future, and after solving the bad guys who killed your relatives, we will also help you as much as possible, so let's follow us for the time being. ”

"Wow......" The baby girl was probably hungry, and she writhed and cried hoarsely.

The other children didn't know if they understood or not, so they didn't say anything.

"Brother Dacheng, this child must be hungry, I have to find a place to get something to eat to feed her." The small body is struggling for the stomach at this time.

"Do you have anything to eat at home?" Cai Dacheng asked the eldest boy.

"Yes..."Forced by the momentum of Cai Dacheng and others, he replied cowardly.

"Okay, you lead the way." Cai Dacheng took advantage of the situation to lift the little boy holding the baby girl on the horse, and a guard carried the boy who led the way on the horse, and then led the way.

The rest of the crowd followed with two other children.

The group didn't go far to the center of the village and entered the courtyard under the boy's lead.

Seeing his parents, younger brother, grandmother, and aunt lying on the ground tragically dead, the boy who led the way couldn't help crying anymore.

The crying is heart-wrenching and tear-jerking...

Cai Dacheng asked a few guards to come over, and the main hall was vacated first.

Then he looked for a mat, and if he didn't, he lifted it off the bed, and then he asked the door panel to be lowered, and found two more broken beds from the room.

It is the husband and wife who squeeze a door panel, not a special place, so that the hall can be accommodated after disposal, and the door panel will be enough.

In this way, a simple mourning hall was arranged.

When a few of the guards came in, they found the firewood room and cooked food.

According to the boy, his family name is Wu, his name is Erniu, and there are most people with the surname Wu in this village, which is called Wan Village.

His father is still the village head, but all he found out of his house was more than ten catties of sorghum flour, and nothing else.

Zhao Jiao hugged the baby girl who was crying, she had a little headache, one was noisy, the other was sad, how to eat this sorghum flour child?

According to the baby girl's brother, she is only more than five months old.

"Madam, we have a few catties of rice ourselves, we can cook porridge and feed her." Su Xuan came to Zhao Jiao's side and told her.

He has grandchildren in his own family, and such a child, alas, what a sin!

The entourage listened and hurried to make arrangements.

After another quarter of an hour, the porridge was ready, and after cooling for a while, Zhao Jiao found a wooden spoon to feed her after trying the right temperature.

may be really hungry, this child is a little swallowing dates, afraid that she will choke, Zhao Jiao will feed a small half spoon every time.
