When he ran into the farmer's house again in the evening, Zhang Kuo didn't dare to knock on the door again.

Nansan's gang is indeed not small, and they dare to blatantly cooperate with the government of Donglin, and they are bound to seize Hemai.

Zhang Kuo was thinking about how to get to the north as soon as possible, and on the other hand, he was planning how to arrange the itinerary so that Hemai would not be physically and mentally exhausted.

After traveling on the road for more than half a day, Zhang Kuo bought a horse from others at a high price, and finally could rest the legs and feet of the two.

"Let's take a ride first." Zhang Kuo got on the horse first and stretched out his hand to Hemai, "Come up." ”

The two of them were not uncomfortable riding a horse for Hemai, her hands resting on her broad shoulders, her face still far from his back.

"How long are we on the road?" He Mai asked.

"But in half a day, we can get to Mangrove Town in front, and when we get to Mangrove Town, let's find an inn to rest for one night, recuperate and then hurry. Hemai, do you feel anything wrong? ”

Zhang Kuo was still thinking about the child in her belly, lest she get tired on the road.

He Mai shook his head: "I'm very good, I can eat and sleep, you don't have to worry about me." ”

Zhang Kuo scratched his head: "Sometimes it is said that a woman's family is as easy to raise as a pig, and it doesn't necessarily seem to be a bad word." ”

He Mai glared at him, "You're treating me as a fool again?" Is it a good thing to say that a woman's house is like a pig? ”

Her hand thumped at the position of her broad shoulder, and the force was very light, as if it were tickling.

The smile on his lips was unconsciously enlarged, and he grabbed the reins of the horse in a good mood, and every part of his body seemed to be soaked in happiness.

……

……

Xu Jiang and his entourage arrived in Mangrove Town for only half a day, and they were imprisoned in the county government prison in Mangrove Town.

In addition to him, the other eight people were all soldiers from the Great Zhou military camp, and their underwear was embroidered with the runes of the Great Zhou soldiers.

Xu Jiang bribed the cell boss with two taels of silver, and then he realized that someone saw them sneaky and suspicious behavior, so he reported them, saying that they were like spies from the enemy country.

Xu Jiang complained bitterly, but at the moment, they couldn't argue, so they could only stay in prison obediently, unable to call for help, and couldn't get out, except for a cell boss, no one paid attention to them.

The money and property of several of them were in the inn's bag, except for the dozen taels of silver that Xu Jiang carried, there were only so many people who could bribe the cell boss, and after the cell boss ate the dozen taels of silver, Xu Jiang asked him something again, and he pretended not to hear, and the food in the prison was getting worse day by day.

Staying until noon on the third day, Xu Jiang's hungry chest was attached to his back, and he and a group of brothers scraped together some valuable objects, and when they were about to "sacrifice" to the cell boss for a full meal, they suddenly saw a group of people coming from the long county prison corridor.

The leader was dressed as a headcatcher, followed by the cell boss who was only promised, and three or four followers behind him, and came towards the cell of Xu Jiang and his party with a menacing attitude.

Xu Jiang cheered up, and couldn't help but be awe-inspired, this group of people, isn't they going to pull them out to ask for guilt?

"Brothers, be smart," he whispered, "if we get the time in a moment, we will rush out, and we will not waste hours with them in this place where birds don't, and we will have to go out and get down to business!" ”

"What Brother Xu said is that we have been in this prison for three days, what is it for him! If we know which person said such nonsense after we go out, our brothers will beat them up and get angry......"

Xu Jiang hurriedly stopped the man's hateful voice, "Shhh, they're here!" ”

The cell boss took the head catcher to the door of the cell, and the head catcher was stark-eyed, glanced at the unkind people in the prison, and asked, "Which one is Xu Jiang?" ”

Come up and know your name?

Xu Jiang was secretly taken aback, and looked at the head catcher without hiding, "I am." ”

"You?" The catcher looked him up and down, "Come out!" ”

Several brothers beside Xu Jiang stood up in an instant—taking one person away, going out alone, not knowing what to do!

When the catcher saw a few thorns up, he was not ambiguous, drew his knife and faced them, and shouted sharply: "A group of prisoners under the stairs are against the sky!?" ”

"You're a fucking prisoner!" A stinky shoe was thrown out of the railing and smashed into the face of the headcatcher, "Lao Tzu is your grandfather from the Great Zhou, you are so disrespectful, be careful of being struck by thunder!" ”

The head catcher covered his face, gritted his teeth with hatred, "Take them to the torture room for me......"

Seeing that the situation was not good, the cell boss hurriedly stepped forward to play a round game, "Hey, Zhu catches the head, you can't do it, you can't do it!" ”

He whispered a few words in the ear of the headcatcher, pointing to the people in prison as he spoke.

Zhu Zhutou looked at the cell head suspiciously, "Is this true?" ”

"It's true! The people here can't move! The cell boss said with a smile.

Zhu Zhutou spat on the ground and pointed at Xu Jiang, "You, come out for me!" ”

Xu Jiang hesitated for a moment and walked towards the prison door.

"Brother Xu......" The brothers in the prison naturally didn't want Xu Jiang to go out alone, and surrounded him one after another.

"Nothing." Xu Jiang's voice comforted them calmly, "It's just a matter of going through, no matter how unfriendly Donglin is with our Great Zhou, what is involved in this is not something that our soldiers can solve." You are here to rest, and I will be back soon. ”

Zhu Zhutou snorted coldly, and after Xu Jiang came out, he put heavy shackles on his hands and pushed him out of the prison door.

"Where is this going?" Xu Jiang asked.

Zhu Zhutou was reluctant to lower his value to talk to him, but after listening to the cell leader's words, he was also a little jealous of him, so he replied in a tone of voice: "Go see Mrs. County Ling." ”

"Mrs. Prefectural Order?" Xu Jiang was a little stunned, "What did Mrs. County Ling do when she saw me?" ”

Zhu Zhutou sneered, "Doctor Xu's magic hands are benevolent, a pair of divine hands can bring the dead back to life, who in the whole world doesn't know?" Mrs. County Ling asked Doctor Xu to go, just to ask you to help me see the long-term incurable disease. ”

Xu Jiang was secretly happy when he heard this, and an unconscious smile came out on his face, "I see! Since it is the county lady who needs to help her, then ...... Why not speak up? My brothers and I looked through the prison, and no one explained to us why they wanted to get us in......"

Zhu Zhutou looked at him twice and felt funny, "What is your identity as the county lady, like you, are you a cheap grass people!?" If you want to help Mrs. for treatment, it will be your honor, you have many mouths and tongues, and after a while, you will talk so much in front of Mrs., and cut your tongue first! ”

Xu Jiang was terrified in his heart, isn't this Zhu Zhutou a self-inflicted fool?
