"I'm sorry I came back late." Shen Qianshan learned from the mouth of the dark night what happened to Gu Yan during her time in Kyoto, she endured so much by herself, but she couldn't do anything, it really made him feel like a waste Since he knew about Chang'er's experience, he immediately disposed of everything and rushed back immediately.

"Sorry what! Do you know how worried we were about you before we came back in the night! Gu Yan wantonly poured out her dissatisfaction on Shen Qianshan's chest, but the big stone in her heart was finally put down, and the person she was thinking about finally appeared in front of her, and everything she suffered before was rewarded.

Gu Huai'an was afraid that the people outside would see that they hadn't gone out for a long time, so they would come in to look for them again, although they were embarrassed to interrupt the time when the two of them were alone, but they still had to say, "Sister, Lord Wang, this is not a very convenient place to talk after all, since we have already met, there will be many opportunities in the future, clean up a little, let's go out quickly." ”

Only then did Gu Yan realize their current situation, followed up and wiped away the tears on her face with her sleeve, and reached out to bring the person/skin/mask, "Brother, help me take a look, is there any problem?" ”

There is no mirror in this place, so I can only rely on Gu Huai'an, and the three of them tossed for a while before they walked out.

"After returning to the capital, I'll make you a new one, you're not as good as I did." Gu Yan snorted, and after calming down, she followed them out of the woods.

When he went out, Huang Hao was already waiting next to the carriage, and when he saw the three of them, he hurriedly greeted them, "Why did you three go?" The spies have already returned, saying that there is no riot in Zhenzhou City, so let's just pack up, and we should be able to enter the city before dark. ”

Gu Huai'an looked at the sky, "Okay, let's speed up our pace and strive to get to Zhenzhou as soon as possible." ”

Song Yu and Chaiyun followed at the end of the team, Chaiyun stood at the end of the team, and gestured at Gu Huai'an, Gu Huai'an also knew in his heart, it seems that the troublemaker has been disposed of by Chaiyun, but I don't know if there are other people, hidden in this line, they still have to be vigilant after all, so as not to be exploited.

Although Gu Yan and Shen Qianshan met, they couldn't have more contact, they could only communicate through masks, I just hoped that such days could get through quickly, and after getting rid of Shen Zhongbai, they would be able to live their lives well.

In order to speed up the pace, Huang Hao asked Feng Yao and Gu Huai'an to go over quickly, and he and Song Yu and they escorted the disaster relief silver to arrive later, and Gu Huai'an asked Gu Yan to follow, the three of them all knew the roots, and they were easy to communicate on the road.

But a few of them had just arrived at the gate of Zhenzhou City, and the guards at the city gate were already preparing to close the gate, as soon as the three of them entered the gate, the gate behind them fell in response, Gu Huai'an looked at the sun that had not yet set, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart, why did the gate of this Zhenzhou City close so early?

"Something isn't quite right, let's go in first."

Shen Qianshan frowned, this matter was definitely not as simple as they saw, it was obviously already a great drought and famine, and the people in the city were displaced, why did they close the city gate so early?

As soon as they entered the city, they felt that something was even more wrong, the entire Zhenzhou City did not seem to be as they imagined, there were homeless people everywhere, relatively speaking, the situation here was even better than outside the city, it was really a little confusing.

The three of them dismounted and led their horses to walk on the street, the whole street was deserted, and it didn't look like it had been affected at all, which had to make the three of them more vigilant.

"Impossible, I've been to Zhenzhou before, even if it's a small city, it's definitely not so cold, not even a person." Shen Qianshan muttered to himself, and got close to the ground to listen to whether there were any people around. After a long while, he stood up, "Over here." ”

Walking in the direction of the street, the number of people gradually began to increase, this big night is not a market, this place is a lot of people, although Gu Yan is not so big to see the lively mind, but also very curious, so many people gathered together, what are they looking at.

Gu Yan casually stopped an old woman, "Auntie, what are you doing?" Why are so many people gathered? ”

But the old woman who was stopped by Gu Yan didn't seem to want to mention this matter, so she just waved her hand and said to Gu Yan, "Evil, evil!" ”

Shen Qianshan understood that there would be a famine after the great drought, and it was normal for people in the city to have cholera, but why did this old woman not mention it as if she had seen something terrible, it really made them understand.

There were too many people gathered in front, and they couldn't see the situation in front clearly, plus the surrounding area was relatively flat, and there was no place to help at all, so they couldn't use light work.

Shen Qianshan frowned, there didn't seem to be any good way, he turned his head to look at Gu Yan, thinking about it, and before she could react, he lifted her up directly, Gu Yan was suddenly grabbed by someone's belt, and before she could scream, she was gathered above her head by Shen Qianshan, and before she could scream, she heard Shen Qianshan's voice.

"That's relatively high, you see what's going on in front of you?"

Gu Yan's posture of being grabbed by the belt was really a little uncomfortable, but it was indeed possible to see it more clearly, a person dressed in black and wearing a mask, jumping around on the execution ground in the middle of the crowd, was really like those heavenly masters who claimed to be able to subdue demons and catch ghosts, Gu Yan didn't understand it, and was stimulated by the bright red blood in front of him.

Shen Qianshan noticed that the person she was dragging in her hand suddenly had no reaction, and thought that it was her own behavior, which frightened her, and quickly put Gu Yan down, but found that her eyes were blank, as if she had seen something that she shouldn't see.

"Sister-in-law, what do you see?"

Gu Huai'an hurriedly took Gu Yan's wrist, found that her pulse was extremely fast, and gestured to Shen Qianshan in front of him with his eyes, Shen Qianshan did not hesitate much, and after walking a few steps outside, he directly rushed to the teahouse shelf behind.

Shen Qianshan saw the scene in the middle of the crowd, the woman on the ground knelt in a daze, but her head had already fallen to the ground, the platform was full of blood, and it seemed to be splashed far away, Shen Qianshan would not be able to accept it for a while, so he couldn't hold back his nausea and jumped off the shelf.

Gu Huai'an didn't know what was going on, but when he saw Shen Qianshan's somewhat embarrassed face, he immediately shut up, Shen Qianshan seemed to slow down, and quickly grabbed Gu Huai'an's wrist, "No, it's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, we have to go out first." ”

When Shen Qianshan saw it, the woman's head had already fallen to the ground, and what she saw was probably the appearance of the Shinto wizard cutting off the woman's head, no wonder she was frightened.

The three of them returned the same way, but the city gate was closed, and the two soldiers guarding the city gate stood at the door, and they didn't look very good at talking, Shen Qianshan couldn't tell what was going on in the city for the time being, so he didn't dare to stay in the city anymore, so he could only take risks and open the city gate by himself.

Gu Yan had already relieved herself at this moment, and watched Shen Qianshan knock out the two guards, and she also had a heartfelt look, "Don't worry, we can take one person away, so it's convenient for us to ask what happened." ”

Shen Qianshan looked at the people lying on the ground and nodded at Gu Yan, "Okay, but we may have to hurry, otherwise the people brought by General Huang will enter the city." ”

Gu Huai'an's expression was serious, the situation in Zhenzhou City was very likely to be completely different from what they had expected before, the drought might be real, but it was also true that someone wanted to take this opportunity to deceive people.

Gu Huai'an didn't dare to delay, after all, there was still disaster relief silver in the car, in case the situation in Zhenzhou was completely different from what the local officials had reported, wouldn't it be a sheep's mouth? Gu Huanan has never been as glad about his decision as he is today, and this time he left Huang Hao behind, not only to let them see Shen Qianshan, but also to help them when they were hanging.

The three of them hurried back in the direction of the whip, and they didn't go far before they happened to meet Huang Hao.

Huang Hao saw the three of them rushing back, and immediately brought someone with him, and hurriedly asked, "Didn't you go into the city?" Why did it come out again? ”

Gu Huai'an didn't have time to explain more, so he quickly shook his head, "No, things have changed, we still have to think about it in the long run, and we can't go in yet." ”

Before the matter is understood, you must not rush into the city, in case it is calculated, it is estimated that all the people here will have to get in, since ancient times, beauty has misled the country, witches have misled the people, Gu Huai'an has read a lot of books, and he naturally knows the power of these witchcraft to deceive people.

As soon as Song Yu saw the front stop, he immediately walked over, "Master Gu, what's going on again?" Aren't we almost at the gates? ”

Song Yu actually did this kind of thing for the first time, originally thought that as long as he arrived in Zhenzhou and sent the disaster relief to the local yamen, his task would be completed, but he didn't expect that he was about to arrive in Zhenzhou, but he was stopped again.

Feng Yao looked at Song Yu defensively, "Where is the person who went to inquire about the news just now?" ”

Huang Hao touched his head and pointed to a person behind him, "Isn't it ......?"

The little soldier who was ordered walked out in a little panic, "General, I went over just now, did something happen?" ”

Gu Huai'an was relieved when he saw that this person was still there, at least it proved that the people in his team were not the same as the people in Zhenzhou City.
