As the saying goes, nothing is light, and we are exactly like this now, after dinner, the family sat around the couch and Xiaoyue talked eloquently, and Chen Xiaoman also listened to it with relish.

Xiao Yue said that because she was trapped, she had to go to the Zhou family alone to transport the talisman to the underworld, and she didn't want the journey to be difficult and difficult. Later, as the time dragged on, she went to the Zhou family to ask for the talisman, but the Zhou family pushed back and did not want to return the talisman, and the two had a quarrel. It's just that Xiao Yue didn't kill people with her soul, so that the tragedy of the Zhou family later caught Xiao Yue by surprise.

I don't doubt Xiao Yue's remarks, but I think that the Zhou family is deliberately delaying, so that I think that the fake Zhou Bing was also forged by the Zhou family.

As soon as Liu Bang's army arrived at Xianyang City, I knew that it was time to leave here, and I unconsciously felt sorry for Xiaoyue, because this was her home.

Xiao Yue got up, but she was also calm, picked up the jade seal that was placed aside, touched it, and said, "Let's go, anyway, this place is already in tatters, and there is nothing to be nostalgic for." ”

"Hmm"

I hummed earnestly and walked out with Xiao Yue, secretly swearing in my heart that I would cherish Xiao Yue's suffering today.

The lights were bright under the city of Xianyang, and a veteran who was nearly half a hundred years old stood in front of the horse in the company of the final general, and before I could speak, the old man stepped forward and said respectfully: "In Liu Bang, please also ask the Holy Monarch to give advice." ”

I don't know how Liu Bang knew what was happening in the city, maybe there was Liu Bang's eyeliner in the thousands of Xiang Yu's army. also learned from Liu Bang's appearance and arched his hand: "In Xiahe Allure, I came to dedicate the city according to my brother's last wishes, and I hope that the King of Han will follow the agreement and treat the army and the people preferentially." ”

Liu Bang looked a little tired, but still smiled heartily and said, "Hahaha, that's natural, please rest assured." I just don't know what the Holy Monarch plans to do in the future."

"Get out of here." I say.

"Oh"

Liu Bang was taken aback: "When"

"Right now." I'll reply.

Liu Bang was stunned for a few seconds, and waved his hand: "Come on, prepare some silver taels for the Holy Monarch." ”

"No need, this is a jade seal, please put it away from King Han."

After speaking, I handed over the jade seal to Liu Bang, and said goodbye with a sigh of relief, and the three of them got into a carriage and went straight to the big plane tree outside Xianyang City.

The carriage was running fast, and my heart was like the galloping horse, but Chen Xiaoman's face was a little sad, I knew that she missed her family, but I couldn't let her go home and take a look.

"Xiaoman, forget about here, you will step into a new world in the future, I am your brother, and she is your sister." I say.

"Well, brother, sister."

Chen Xiaoman said and smiled, but his eyes were filled with tears, I glanced at Xiaoyue, and said at a loss: "Why are you still crying, let's turn around and go home to see"

Xiao Yue wiped her tears with her sleeve, "No need brother, my family has already died in the war." ”

I was taken aback: "Ah when"

Chen Xiaoman said that she secretly went home to take a look when I confronted Xiang Yu, only to learn that her family had already died tragically in the riot of Xiang Yu's subordinates looting people's property.

I am not surprised by this kind of thing, because the war will distort the psychology of soldiers, and even if there are thousands of articles of purpose, they cannot change the wrongdoing of those front-line soldiers on the front line of life and death, and naturally it is only those defenseless people who suffer. That's why I hate wars, and I hate those in power who wage wars, because it is their own selfish desires that push countless good spirits to the brink of being like wild beasts.

As the carriage came to a halt after a while, we got out of the carriage and sent the groom away, searching the vicinity for the great plane tree that had caused me to fall from it.

"Strange, why is it gone?" I touched my head and searched for it relentlessly.

During this time, Xiaoyue seemed very calm, and suddenly she spoke: "No need to look for it, Yu Tong moved the compass, so the way back has changed." ”

"Ah, what then?"

I can't remember how many times this kind of surprised voice has been made today, and I feel more and more that Yu Tong has deliberately done it for personal vendettas.

"There is no way, but to take one step at a time."

Xiao Yue's answer was undoubtedly another basin of cold water that extinguished the only hope in my heart, and I couldn't help but scold Yu Tong for saying that she was narrow-minded and played such an international joke on me at such a critical juncture.

"Hey, brother, look, there's a fire over there."

I fixed my eyes and saw a team of soldiers and horses coming straight from Xianyang City with torches, but Xiang Yu was dead, and Liu Bang had just entered Xianyang, I didn't know what could make them raise troops late at night.

Xiao Yue swept his gaze and said, "I think we should hide for a while, Liu Bang should be here for you." ”

"I don't know him well," I said.

Xiao Yue snorted coldly: "You are not familiar with him, but thousands of treasures in Xianyang Palace are missing, do you think Liu Bang will not think that you took it?"

"I, I, I"

At this time, I am at a loss for words, and besides, I am not a child anymore, and I also know that human affection is warm and cold, and once some people are confused by treasure, they cannot justify their innocence by two mouths.

"Daughter-in-law, I just listen to you, don't be angry, hehe."

I pretended to be relaxed, but in fact, I was already scolding myself for being incompetent, scolding myself for not being able to give Xiaoyue a stable home, and letting Xiaoyue suffer from this escape with me.

We trotted all the way along the ridge and stayed away from the road, until I saw that the soldiers and horses were far away, and then hurriedly got on the path, and went straight to the remote farm.

The next day, we rested in a farmer's household, but the notice of the wanted warrant was already close to the village, saying that we were Jiangyang thieves pretending to be saints and stealing state finances to rob while they were on fire.

Fortunately, most people don't know how to read, and we are staying overnight in the starry night, so many people don't know about our existence. But even this makes me feel that it is not advisable to stay here for long, otherwise we will be greeted by the disaster of imprisonment and death.

I paid for a few old clothes at the farmer's house, and left in disguise, but by this time the fortresses were heavily guarded, and the carriages and horses had to be strictly checked to avoid smuggling treasure out of the city.

Now that the real world can't go back, and the other world has no place for us, where to settle down for a while has become an urgent problem to be solved.

Chen Xiaoman also wrinkled his brows and pondered, and suddenly his eyes lit up and said: "Brother, let's go to the mountains, there are sparsely populated there, and there are scattered desperate caves everywhere, which should be enough for us to hide for a while." ”

Of course, I also thought about this, but the other thing that gave me a headache was that I didn't have much money on my body, and it wouldn't be long before we would sit on the mountain and eat empty if we didn't have any income from living there. I only regret why I didn't accept Liu Bang's gift of silver at that time, otherwise I wouldn't have fallen into such an embarrassment.
