Chapter Seventy-Three: Eavesdropping in the Jungle

Li Yu swept away all the wine in Li Yiwan's mouth before reluctantly leaving.

Li Yiwan took a sip and lay on the ground to rest, the sun shining on her body warmly, so comfortable.

"Xiao Wan'er, am I the best husband in the world?" Li Yu was lying reclining, as if he was drunk, and even his eyes seemed to be full of wine.

"Yes." Li Yiwan thought for a moment before answering.

"But Xiao Wan'er is not the best lady in the world, because Xiao Wan'er always makes me sad."

Li Yiwan thought for a long time, looked at the sky that could only be seen in fragments covered by peach blossoms, and slowly chanted, "The peach is dying, scorching its bloom." The son is home, and it is appropriate for him to live in his room. The peach is dying, and there is a fact. The son is home, and his family room is appropriate. The peach is dying, and its leaves are blooming. The son is home, and it is suitable for his family. ”

Li Yu was stunned, "What is Xiao Wan'er talking about?" ”

Li Yiwan glanced at him and said in a low voice, "Idiot, illiterate." ”

The warm sunshine made people lazy, and after drinking some wine, Li Yiwan actually fell asleep.

When I woke up, I found myself back at an inn.

Li Yu smiled bitterly, "No way, there is an inn that is the only inn I can find before dark." ”

Yang Yulan welcomed the two very much, and was surprised when she heard the two of them tell about the experience of returning to Youjia Inn, and said that she must go to the peach blossom forest that the two said if she has time.

After resting for the night, Li Yiwan and Li Yu set off again, but this time it was a hired carriage, otherwise they might have to delay a lot of time on the road.

After they left, Yang Yulan was also envious, closed the door of the inn, and took the three children to find the peach blossom forest that Li Yu said.

Li Yiwan and Li Yu got into the carriage, Li Yu sat and read, Li Yiwan lay on his lap, occasionally making trouble, although Li Yu would be caught and taught a hard lesson, Li Yiwan was still happy.

When Li Yiwan went to harass Li Yu for the twentieth time, the carriage came to an emergency brake, and Li Yiwan rolled underneath with a grunt, and before Li Yiwan could complain, she heard an arrogant voice outside the car, "What are you doing in the car, get down!" ”

It seems that this person is the one who started to let herself roll down, Li Yiwan patted the dust on her body, opened the curtain and walked out. At first glance, the person standing in front of the carriage turned out to be a soldier's uniform. Li Yiwan was a little puzzled, "What are you stopping us from?" ”

The man said proudly, "Your carriage has been requisitioned by our lords. ”

"What are you going to do?" Li Yiwan told herself not to worry about him.

"How can such a confidential matter be known to untouchables like you?" The man was a little impatient, and went straight to the coachman, and was about to pull the coachman down and sit down himself.

Who was sitting in the carriage? Sitting on the Li Yu who can kick people away when he sleeps.

There is no doubt that the person was kicked out three meters away by Li Yu, "If it weren't for the clothes on your body, hum." Li Yu shook his robe, got out of the carriage, and kicked his legs in the direction where the man flew out, "I've been sitting in the car for a long time, and my legs are not flexible." ”

Li Yiwan glanced at him, "It's a bit too much." ”

It can be seen that although this person is very fierce, he has no martial arts at all, he is an ordinary person, and this kick is enough for him.

As soon as the man saw that Li Yu and the others were not easy to mess with, he got up from the ground and ran away with a scolding, and disappeared from sight after a while.

"Two, let's go, this area hasn't been peaceful lately." The driver stepped forward to persuade the two to get into the car.

"What's wrong?"

The coachman sighed, "Alas, look at my memory, Guwu City has been full of bandits recently, this is the only way for the nearby city to support Guwu City's food, I forgot, I didn't recognize it just now, and I almost got into trouble." The man just now, I think is a bandit wearing the clothes of officers and soldiers, he is not expected to give up this time, we should leave quickly. ”

"Bandits in the clothes of officers and soldiers? What do you meanβ€”" Li Yiwan gasped.

"The robbers here are not afraid of the government, and they will not let go of the one who should be robbed, many officers and soldiers have died in Guwucheng, and even their clothes will be stripped away, and now, I can't believe it when I see people wearing official clothes, alas, Guwucheng doesn't know what he has done." The coachman sighed, "I heard that many people in the places where the disaster in Guwu City is serious are still on the mountain, waiting for food to save their lives. ”

"That's not right, the flood in Guwu City is just a place, and there is no grain stored inside Guwu City?" Li Yiwan asked.

"How do I know this, I've heard of it, if it weren't for the high price given by the two of you, I wouldn't want to pass by here, who knows what the people here have done."

Li Yiwan felt a little uncomfortable. On the one hand, there are problems that are not solved and they are uncomfortable, on the other hand, their conscience is uncomfortable, if they are just small ordinary people, the most they can do to these things is to make some modest contributions, send some food and clothing, which is considered a help, but the fact is that they are not.

Li Yiwan grew up in the general's mansion since he was a child, and his father often said that he was protecting his family and defending the country, and he often thought about those soldiers in the barracks, he said that he also came up step by step from that position, he knew the thoughts of those people, he couldn't relax, otherwise the people below would follow suit, and his father also said that he couldn't let those people chill, so he always rarely went home, and stayed in the barracks most of the time. If she leaves like this today, I am afraid that it will be difficult to face her father and her conscience in the future.

Li Yiwan looked at Li Yu, and before she could speak, Li Yu nodded solemnly.

Li Yiwan also nodded with a firm countenance.

The two were afraid that the man would come back to retaliate, so they sent the coachman to a safe place, and asked the direction of Guwu City before returning the same way.

The road didn't take long before it came to the end, and beyond that was a dense forest.

Li Yiwan and Li Yu didn't think about it, so they went in.

After entering the dense forest for about half an hour, Li Yu suddenly stopped and took Li Yiwan up the tree.

Although Li Yiwan didn't know why, she knew that Li Yu must have a reason for doing this, and she slowed down her breathing.

But for a moment, I vaguely remembered the sound of fighting.

Dozens of people passed through the area and fled.

These dozens of people were all wearing the clothes of officers and soldiers, and one of them was the black-faced man who had just stopped the carriage of the two!

Li Yiwan counted, there were two of them. Three of them were seriously injured, and they were carried away by others, bleeding nonstop, Li Yiwan said in his heart, this thief can be regarded as a heavy love and righteousness.

The person chasing them behind them has not yet appeared, and I don't know who it is.

The black-faced man stopped, and the rest of the people also stopped, resting for a while, and then someone went to bandage the wounds of the three seriously injured people.

One of them had two deep wounds on his chest that had been cut by sharp weapons, the skin and flesh were turned out, and the bright red blood and black blood were mixed together. Li Yu covered Li Yiwan's eyes, and Li Yiwan breathed heavily, which made her feel better.

The black-faced man said in a deep voice, "If we continue like this, we will definitely be wiped out, and you will leave first, and I will lead them away." ”

"Brother Gou, even if we die, we will die together."

"That's it, Brother Gou, don't forget, yesterday you praised our sister-in-law for being good, why are you going to die now, think about your sister-in-law, it's too dangerous, let's run together."

The black-faced man was silent, with some tears in his eyes.

"What are you doing here, since I came out in the first place, I was ready not to go back." The black-faced man didn't allow others to argue, stood up and said, "When Yuhua bandages the three of them, we will go our separate ways, don't forget, we all said before, you have to listen to me!" β€œ

"Brother Gou, I'll accompany you." The person who was bandaging the wound raised his head, it was a woman, her expression was firm, "Brother Gou, I'm not afraid of death, I want to go with you"

"Nonsense!" The black-faced man was furious, "So many brothers, desperately covering us to come out, are you going back to die?!" There are twenty of us today, and if we can run out, it doesn't matter if we die, the important thing is that one of us must go to Kyoto to expose that dog official! ”

"Yuhua, Brother Gou is right, we have to go out, our family members are still in the mountains, they can't last a few days, all the hope is on a few of us." The black-faced man narrates: One of your men shed tears as he spoke.

"Zhenchang, I..." Yuhua burst into tears

"Alright, you can bandage it quickly." The man stopped talking, regaining his strength.

Li Yiwan looked at Li Yu and said softly, "What now?" ”

"Wait and see." Li Yu's voice was not as soft as usual, and Li Yiwan was a little uncomfortable.

"Li Yu, what's wrong with you?" Li Yiwan said with concern.

"It's okay, you keep watching." Li Yu motioned to Li Yiwan, and Li Yiwan looked down.

At this time, the twenty people were ready to set off again, and the black-faced man and the others parted for the last time.

The rest was to save people and set off again, the black-faced man stayed where he was, destroyed the traces of everyone's stay, and then cut his own hand, dripped blood in the weeds next to him, and ran in another direction.

"Now, who are we going to track?"

Li Yu shook his head and motioned to Li Yiwan with his eyes not to make a sound.

Well, blaming herself for not being able to hold her breath, and without Li Yu's strong strength, Li Yiwan could only look around, hoping to find some clues.

After a while, Li Yiwan saw that the nineteen people who had just left had returned. Li Yiwan looked at Li Yu suspiciously, but Li Yu shook her head.

Some of the nineteen people were slightly injured, and their clothes were even more tattered, and Yuhua's voice trembled, "I am surrounded, what should I do?" ”

"What can I do, I can only come hard," the man who was called Zhenchang by Yuhua spat on the ground, "It's a pity that my family Chang'er can't see my mighty appearance today, look at him and don't say that Lao Tzu is a soft bone!" ”
