Chapter 11 Clearing the Wasteland

After seeing Wen Qiao, Zhao Qingyan rolled up his sleeves and prepared to cook.

"There's a lot of delicious food today!" Zichen looked at the food on the table, his mouth was wide and full of surprise.

It seemed like it had been a long time since they had eaten such a sumptuous dinner.

Zhao Qingyan pushed the door in, holding the last bowl of soup in his hand, and carefully avoided him: "What are you doing standing here?" Hurry up and eat. ”

Zichen nodded like pounding garlic, and crawled to the seat and sat down, his eyes full of food.

After putting the soup in his hand, Zhao Qingyan also sat down next to him, and raised his hand to break the most meaty chicken leg for him: "Try it and see if the chicken leg I made is delicious." ”

There are about seven or eight dishes on the table, all of which are made by Zhao Qingyan herself, after all, she first promised to cook something for Zichen to eat.

Zichen swallowed his saliva, stuffed the chicken leg into his mouth, and ate it in a big gulp.

While eating, he didn't forget to praise Zhao Qingyan, and made Zhao Qingyan's heart bloom.

Touching his head kindly, Zhao Qingyan solemnly promised: "Chen'er, my mother promises you that I will make you delicious every day in the future." ”

Such an old child is the age of growing his body, and he was not given enough to eat before because they did not have so much silver.

Now that she has silver on her, she naturally wants to raise him for nothing.

Chen'er's mouth was full, and there was no room to speak, so she just nodded vigorously when she heard the words.

Zhao Qingyan hooked his lips and smiled when he saw this, and gave him another chopstick of green vegetables: "Don't patronize eating meat, eat some green vegetables to supplement nutrition." ”

"Eat slowly, no one will rob you here." Zhao Qingyan stared at him for a while, and couldn't help laughing.

It seems that he was really wronged some time ago, and now that he has delicious food, he can't wait to stuff it all into his mouth.

Thinking about it made her heart throb.

After eating a meal, Zichen touched his round belly and happily kept saying that he had survived.

Zhao Qingyan saw it in his eyes and smiled a little happier.

No longer has to go out to make a living by robbing, Zhao Qingyan has more time to wander around the door of his yard.

On this day, she suddenly found a barren land behind the yard, and although it was barren, the plants on it were still alive and vibrant.

After knocking on the soil of that land, Zhao Qingyan found a few people and began to sort out the land.

"Why are we going to get this land?" Zichen looked at the busy people, and instantly turned into a curious baby.

Zhao Qingyan stretched out his hand to lift the hem of his skirt, and replied in four or two: "The land here is very suitable for growing vegetables, I will let people clean up here, and we can grow vegetables and fruits to eat." ”

"Can it really grow?" Zichen blinked, a little unconvinced.

Zhao Qingyan nodded, and handed him the small wooden bucket in his hand by the way: "Go and help me get some water, it doesn't take too much." ”

The little guy ran to the side to fetch water.

Several people worked together, banging and beating for about a day, and the barren land was able to see a little.

Striking while the iron was hot, Zhao Qingyan asked someone to buy some vegetable seeds, all of which were sown in the land.

Looking at the flat land, Zhao Qingyan clapped his hands with satisfaction, took the hand of the child next to him and walked to the door of his house: "Let's go home first, these vegetables will be able to grow in a few days." ”

Besides, Wen Qiao hurried to the place where the goods were robbed, and there were already many people waiting for him.

"How's it going? Did you find the goods? Wen Qiao jumped off the horse, his voice a little cold.

When the attendant next to him saw him, his face was a little surprised.

"Not yet, they should have come prepared, they did a good job when they retreated." Someone replied stubbornly.

Their instincts told them that Shiko didn't seem to be happy tonight, and that it would be better for them to pay attention.

Wen Qiao's face turned cold, and he walked straight to the place where the incident occurred.

It was empty, not even the horses pulling the goods were left, and there were no signs of ruts on the ground, as if the men were on their wings.

"The amount of goods is huge, it is impossible to transfer so quietly, you soldiers are divided into eight ways to chase, and you can always find it." Wen Qiao's eyes wandered on the various roads, and his tone was a little heavy.

The person on duty had already regretted the loss of the goods, but now he had the opportunity to make up for it, and he naturally ran faster than anyone else.

Soon, Wen Qiao's men divided into eight routes and pursued them in all directions.

And Wen Qiao and the rest of the people are waiting for news here.

If it weren't for the number of crimes, it would never have been possible to retreat in such an orderly manner, and it was best that those people didn't let him be caught, otherwise he would never be spared.

Thinking about it, a picture suddenly appeared in his mind: a certain woman took Chen'er to feast.

Wen Qiao's face darkened.

"Shizi, we found the shipment due south, but we didn't see anyone." The voice of his subordinate suddenly interrupted his thoughts.

"Let's take a look." Wen Qiao retracted his thoughts and rode his horse to the south, "Tell people in other directions that there is no need to chase." ”

When they arrived at the location the guard had stated, the man in charge of the road was counting the amount of goods.

Seeing Wen Qiao, the man hurriedly ran over with a surprised expression on his face: "Shizi, these goods are not missing at all, they are all here." ”

Wen Qiao's jaw head said that he already knew.

Walking to the side of the goods, Wen Qiao found that this place was close to a large forest, there were many weeds in the woods, and there were many tall and low trees.

It seems that those people also found this forest difficult to walk, so they chose to leave their goods here.

"You bring the goods back first." After Wen Qiao thought for a while, he turned to look at the person behind him who was busy checking whether the goods were damaged.

That person had the order to arrange for someone to come and move the goods.

"Shizi, have our people seen a group of black-clothed people going into the woods, do you want to continue chasing?" Someone came to ask for instructions.

Wen Qiao nodded, looking at the woods with an uncertain expression: "Go chase and catch a live mouth." ”

He wanted to see who dared to do anything to him.

The guards took the order and led a small group of men and horses into the depths of the woods.

After about an hour, the men came out of the woods one after another, but there were a few more black corpses on their hands than they had then.

With just a faint glance, Wen Qiao recognized that they were poisoned.

"These people are all dead soldiers, and they killed themselves collectively when they saw us." The guard sighed, not daring to look up at Wen Qiao.

Wen Qiao hummed lightly, did not continue to investigate, but raised his feet and walked towards his horse.

"Take these dead men back and check them out to see if there are any clues on them." Wen Qiao jumped up and easily landed on the horse's back.

Just as he was about to leave, he thought of something again, and said, "Continue to investigate and see who did it." ”

How could he spend money to hire a dead soldier to do something to his goods, and provoke him so openly?

The guard heard the coldness in Wen Qiao's tone, didn't dare to say anything, nodded and agreed, and then ordered people to act separately.
