"Chunhua, you write a letter to Zhan Wuming, and ask him to arrange for two capable people to approach Hu Qing and them, secretly protect them, and report all their movements to me regularly."

"Girl, are you worried about their safety?" It just so happened that she was also worried about her junior brother, just Shen Fei's half-baked kung fu, he was probably a cannon fodder on the battlefield, if someone could secretly protect him, she could rest assured! Hey, my senior sister is really conscientious!

Chunhua silently gave herself a thumbs up in her heart.

"Also, don't tell Shen Fei about this."

"Why?"

"It's better to keep them safe, otherwise it won't work."

"Yes." The girl has always thought well, and it is right to do so.

This year's New Year, the atmosphere of laughter has become dull and sad because of the conscription. Conscription is not just voluntary, every family according to the number of heads, get a strong man, originally a day of reunion, but to be separated from the family, this kind of grief is particularly profound.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, when the recruits set off for the frontier, no one in the Earl's Court had a smile on their faces, and they were all somewhat sad.

Xiao Xia packed up early, changed into a neat suit, put on a bow and arrow, and went out with spring flowers.

Looking at the distant army, the north wind howled on his face, and it hurt so much, but this pain was not at all as good as the worry and panic in his heart.

The general died in a hundred battles, and the strong man returned in ten years.

I hope this war can end early, she doesn't want to wait for her senior brother for ten years.

Therefore, you have to work hard, and only when you control more power can you have the strength to turn the overall situation around.

"Girl, let's go back!"

There was no longer a distant figure, so Xiao Xia turned the horse's head.

"Let's go into the mountains and hunt."

I suddenly remembered that when I first came here, it was a luxury to even eat well, and the family was thin and invisible, so she just relied on hunting to eat little by little and put on warm clothes. By the way, the first time she came, it was the same cold winter, when she walked barefoot in the snow and didn't even have a pair of shoes of her own.

With her memories, she rode her horse forward, and now that she has gained a firm foothold in this world, what else is there to be afraid of, as long as she keeps moving forward.

There are many mountain ranges in Zezhou, and the big mountains are connected to the small mountains, and the small mountains are connected to the big mountains. Two of the most famous mountain ranges of the Kyushu Dynasty are on the border of Zeshu. One is the Shenqi Mountains, which run through the entire Zezhou, and the other is the Yanshan Mountains to the northeast. One end of the Shenqi Mountain Range originated in Zhengzhou, only connecting north and south, and I heard that it is where the dragon vein is. And the Yanshan Mountain Range is the decomposition line of the Kyushu Dynasty and the Red Lotus Kingdom. There is a large no-man's-land in the mountains, and the terrain is too dangerous to live in.

There is a back mountain behind Shaoyang City, and people call the back garden of Shaoyang City, so it is named Huashan. The mountain is not high, but it is undulating, and there are large and small mountains in the back, which is a branch of the Yanshan Mountain Range.

Xiao Xia rode a horse into Huashan, at this time many animals are hibernating, even if they don't hibernate, they are all nesting in the hole and don't want to come out, it's too cold outside, and the mountains are covered with snow, and there is no food at all.

Xiao Xia walked around the mountains and couldn't find even a pheasant feather.

"It's really not as good as the mountains in our Shenjia Village, and today is in vain." Chunhua sighed, and whistled her hands that were about to freeze.

Xiao Xia looked around with clairvoyance, it was indeed very quiet, and today I am afraid that I can only return empty-handed.

Looking up at the sky again, it was time to go back, after the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, it was the New Year's Eve Celebration, and the year was going to pass again.

"Girl, there is movement, I'll take a look, I guess God sees us too miserable and sends us prey."

Chunhua jumped off the horse excitedly, flew up, and flew directly towards a weed.

As I got closer, I smelled a very strong smell of blood. Chunhua frowned, no, this is the smell of human blood. She pulled out the dagger in her hand, carefully brushed the grass, and saw a man covered in blood lying motionless on the snow, the snow around him had been soaked in black and purple.

And from this person's figure, it can be seen that this is a man, who should still be alive, but to save or not to save? That's a problem.

At this time, Xiao Xia had already walked over, and when he saw someone, he also frowned, the man's body was full of knife wounds, his clothes were messy, and he couldn't see his true appearance because of the blood stained, but from the man's feet, it can be seen that this person is either rich or expensive, then, there is only one possibility, that is, he was chased and killed and fled for his life, and he happened to be seen by himself.

In other words, saving this person is saving a trouble.

"Girl, what shall we do?"

Xiao Xia sighed, no matter if this person is a good person or a bad person, but if he doesn't save him, he will feel uneasy, let's save him first!

With a wave of his hand, the man on the ground disappeared into thin air.

"Let's go, take care of the footprints of both of us."

"Yes."

As soon as Xiao Xia and the others left without help, a group of black-clothed people appeared in the position just now, looking at the blood stains on the snow, but they were puzzled.

"Leave a trail."

"My lord, the figure has disappeared into thin air, and there are no clues around."

"Impossible, a radius of ten miles, search for me."

After half a pillar of incense, I finally found a clue that didn't matter.

"My lord, there have been two horseback riders in this mountain today, and it seems that their whereabouts should be for hunting, and judging from the traces left by the descendants, they should still be two people who went down, and they didn't bring one more person."

"Don't be careless, even if Yinxue is dead, he should leave a corpse, if there is no corpse, it means that he is not dead, only two people have entered this mountain, they must have rescued him? Keep looking. ”

"Yes."

In other words, Xiao Xia didn't want to enter the city, so he could go back to the Earl's Mansion directly from outside the city, and the road was close. But when I thought of the people in the space, I felt faintly uneasy, and finally made a detour into Shaoyang City, entered from the north city gate, walked around the city, and then went out of the city from the east city gate, and walked dozens of miles before going back to the Earl's Palace.

At this time, it was already twilight in the west, and as soon as I entered the mansion gate, I was caught by the family who had been waiting for a long time.

"Second girl, you can be regarded as back, the masters are waiting for you to have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner!" Madame has already called someone over and seen it three times. ”

Xiao Xia handed the horse to Xiao Si on the side, and hurriedly walked towards the warm pavilion, where this year's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was placed.

Entering the warm pavilion where the four seasons are like spring, I feel like I have entered another world, and I have taken off the fur cloak on my body, and it is still hot.

Ruhua saw that the second girl had entered the warm pavilion, quickly took a suitable dress, changed it into Xiao Xia in the side room, and after a simple wash, she finally entered the main hall of the warm pavilion.

At this time, everyone was there, and a room of people saw Xiao Xia come in, with different expressions. Except for Xiao Wang's concern for a few words, no one dared to say anything. Now that Shen Xiaoxia is the county lord, if it is according to the law, everyone here, except for Shen Zhong, has to greet Shen Xiaoxia.
