Mingyue heard Huo Ran's words, her eyes were full of tears, her body trembled slightly, and she couldn't help but want people to hold her in her arms, care for her, and pamper her, but Huo Ran didn't have a trace of soft-heartedness at all. Mingyue bit the corner of her lip, remembering what her brother did a few days ago, she was still timid, and under the "protection" of the tiger girl, she returned to her residence.

Huo Ran glanced at the teenagers around him, and they all lowered their heads and didn't dare to look at their sister and brother arguing. Until Huo Ran spoke: "Let's eat" The atmosphere became active again.

The surrounding teenagers and girls are basically from civilian backgrounds, and there is nothing to eat.

Huo Ran sat with Qin Lang, Guan Feng, Lu Tao, and Zhang Han, and Hu Niu went to accompany Mingyue.

"Is Mr. Zhang going to the capital too?" Huo Ran said with a little surprise, "My sister and I are also going to the capital to look for relatives." ”

"Great! Why don't you go with me? It's good to have a response. Zhang Han was also very happy, in fact, he didn't dare to go to such a far place alone, "Mr. Huo Xiao might as well call me Jincheng, my name is Han Jincheng." ”

"Jin Cheng." Huo Ran is as good as a stream.

Dinner was not sumptuous, just a bowl of thin porridge, a few pieces of meat, and it was eaten quickly.

As soon as they finished eating, several young girls came in with large vats, and the bitter smell of herbs came to their nostrils.

"What is this?" Zhang Han asked while holding the black soup in the bowl and covering his nose.

"This is what the little gentleman specially asked us to find to prevent the plague." Guan Feng explained.

Zhang Han looked at Huo Ran in surprise: "The little gentleman actually knows military law and pharmacology. ”

"Just a little bit of it." Huo Ran frowned and poured the medicine down.

"Guan Feng, you can arrange today's night watch!" Huo Ran looked at the three of them: "Qin Lang worked hard yesterday, have a good rest for a day." ”

"Yes, little sir." Guan Feng thought for a while, and then began to arrange manpower.

"Little sir, eldest lady, she refuses to drink." The tiger girl came to Huo Ran with a bowl of medicine with a bitter face.

"Thanks, leave it to me! Mr. Jincheng, please forgive me, I will take my leave first. Qin Lang, arrange Mr. Zhang. After Huo Ran finished speaking, he directly picked up a torch and walked to the depths of the cave.

Only then did Zhang Han see clearly that the cave was still very big, and there were vaguely many small caves to live in.

"We usually live there, basically three people in a small cave, we can take care of each other." Qin Lang looked in the direction of Zhang Han and introduced him: "Sir, why don't you live with me tonight, this guy Lu Tao loves to snore too much." ”

Zhang Han knew that Qin Lang was still wary of him, but he didn't care about it anymore, but asked curiously: "I don't know if I can take the liberty of asking, are Little Brother Qin and Mr. Xiao known each other since childhood?" ”

"No, we've only known each other for twenty-three days!" Qin Lang watched his companions skillfully pack up their utensils, stood up and took Zhang Han to also light the torch, and walked towards his cave.

"Actually, we didn't have a good time meeting at the time."

Qin Lang was separated from his brothers and sisters among the exiles, and he searched for three days and three nights, but he couldn't find anyone.

Thinking of his father's farewell, Qin Lang decided to return to the city, and simply died with his father, and he was not alone.

"What are you doing?" On the way back, Qin Lang saw a young man of the same age grabbing the hair of a girl in white, and a child commanding coldly, and jumped out with enthusiasm for a while.

The boy loosened the girl's hair and stood guardedly in front of the girl and the child, holding the knife.

The girl hesitated and walked in front of the child, and Qin Lang knew that they might know each other.

Qin Lang put down the wooden stick in his hand.

"Go on." The child commanded. The girl tried to run again, but was grabbed by the child, and the young man with the knife came over to help, and scratched the girl's neat hair into a mess, and grabbed handfuls of dirt from the ground, and wiped it on the girl's delicate face and clean clothes.

"Let's go!" The child also messed up his hair, and commanded the young man with the knife, and walked to Qin Lang's side with the sobbing girl, and said to him, "You can go with me too!" ”

"Why?" Qin Lang asked.

"I can keep you alive."

"You just believe in a kid younger than you?" Zhang Han couldn't believe it.

"At the time, I felt like he was telling the truth." Qin Lang smiled heartily: "It turns out that I was not mistaken. ”

"Who is the boy with the knife?" Zhang Han asked again.

"It's Guan Feng." While cleaning up the wormwood in the cave, Qin Lang continued, "Later, we met Lu Tao, who was caught by those demons and was about to kill and eat meat, but unfortunately Lu Tao's sister is gone. The little gentleman thought that this would not work, and then we began to gather our hands and look for food together, until now. ”

"The little gentleman has a really good heart." Zhang Han sighed.

"Yes! Sir, the cave is shabby, you have been wronged. Zhang Han made the bed.

Zhang Han helped clean up and sat down for an interview: "Not bad!" This is also taught by Mr. Little? ”

"Yes, thanks to him! You see so many of us, no one is sick or starved to death, these wormwood, the grass beds, including this cave, the water we drink, are the first to be brought up by the little gentleman. Qin Lang's words were full of gratitude.

Qin Lang said a few more words about his daily activities, and gradually his voice lowered, snoring sounded, and he fell asleep.

"What a talent!" Zhang Han sighed, listening to Qin Lang's regular snoring, he was also very tired, and he couldn't help but fall into a deep sleep.

"Sir-sir-" Qin Lang shouted in a low voice, Zhang Han just turned over and continued to sleep.

Qin Lang sat up, walked to Zhang Han's side, and carefully rummaged through the small bag he had put aside.

"Big brother, how's it going?" Outside the cave, Lu Tao was waiting there.

"Probably not." Qin Lang said in a low voice.

"Well, what can I do? This is the fifth. Lu Tao had a sad face.

"Don't tell Mr. Xiao about this first, lest he be disappointed." Qin Lang told Lu Tao.

"Don't worry, I understand it, big brother." Lu Tao patted his chest: "What my brother promised, I didn't do anything." ”

"It's a pity, the little gentleman already knows." Guan Feng's voice came from not far from the two of them, "Just like this, you will catch a scholar in a few days and release it again, can the little gentleman see it?" Come with me! ”

The two walked behind Guan Feng with bitter faces.

"Good you bolt!" Lu Tao saw the mute young man standing outside Huo Ran Mountain, and immediately understood who had betrayed them.

The bolt grinned, grimaced, and looked at Lu Tao gloatingly.

Lu Tao made a gesture and wanted to kick him, but he heard Huo Ran's cold voice: "Don't come in yet!" Suddenly a shudder, and hurriedly walked in.

"Don't let anyone in." Guan Feng solemnly patted the bolt on the shoulder.

The plug silently thumped his chest.

Guan Feng walked into the cave and knelt down on one knee: "Shizi." ”

Qin Lang and Lu Tao also knelt on the ground, looking like they were pleading.

Huo Ran helped them to the stone bench next to them with a calm face, without saying a word.

The atmosphere in the cave became more and more tense, and only the breathing sound of a few people could be heard and the faint sound of dripping water, and the originally relaxed mood of the three people gradually became heavy, and sweat oozed out of their foreheads.

"Do you know what's wrong with you?" Huo Ran finally spoke.

"You should have killed that scholar directly." Lu Tao opened his mouth recklessly.

Qin Lang was depressed, how many times he had instructed, but he still didn't remember it, and he was not allowed to kill people casually.

"Shizi, we should be more cautious." Qin Lang thought about today's experience: "If this person is really sent by the rebels, then his identity as a scholar is likely to be fake, and it would be dangerous to leave him and the third child at home at that time." ”

Huo Ran's voice was gentle: "I know you have good intentions, but the most important thing for me is your safety. Just like just now, Qin Lang, you actually dared to live with him alone, and fought a few homeless people, did you really think that you were an invincible general? What if he kills you? Lu Tao is the same! You are dead, even if I am safe and sound, where can I find two people like you, you call me the son, but I treat you as brothers! ”

Qin Lang and Lu Tao couldn't help but have slightly red circles in their eyes, and they breathed rapidly: "Shizi-"

"If I hadn't treated you as my closest relatives, how could I have told you my secrets? In the future, you must take your own safety to heart. Huo Ran said earnestly.

"Yes, Shizi!" The two clenched their fists.

"I fought again today, it's hard work, go back and rest as soon as possible!" Huo Ran advised.

"So how do you sleep tonight? Why don't I go with my eldest brother? Lu Tao asked.

"Okay, let's go!" Huo Ran agreed.

The two retired.

Guan Feng watched them leave, and knelt on the ground again: "Please punish the scholar." ”

"Punish what?" Huo Ran asked casually.

"I shouldn't have deceived the world." Guan Feng replied.

"Guan Feng, you are my personal guard, I am very satisfied that you take me to heart, but I don't want you to take other people's lives too lightly, including your own." Huo Ran said solemnly, "Without your hint, how would they know about the temptation to arrest people?" Nothing is flawless, and if the two of them know what you have done today, how will they get along? ”

Guan Feng was stunned: "Are we going to be together all the time?" ”

"Reinvigorating the national government, do you think the two of us alone will do? Qin Lang is calm, Lu Tao is brave, and they are both good talents. Get along well in the future. Huo Ran warned again: "Don't use them to tempt again!" ”

"Yes, son. Shizi, do we still want to seek? Guan Feng asked.

"No, I've found it."
