When the guard said this to the kid, he couldn't help but eat a bite of beef, and he ate the delicious beef in his mouth, and felt that it was fragrant in his mouth.

It's good to eat on an errand in the house, and when you come out to do tasks, you can follow the head of the guard, and you can have a good meal when you are born and die.

He brought all the money he gave home to add clothes and living expenses to his family, and the New Year was about to come.

He also fought hard when he came out this time, even if he died, he could leave a high bonus for his family.

As a guard, he is not afraid of death, but he is afraid that he will not be able to support a family, and his son is a few years old, so he should be sent to school.

My wife is about to give birth when she has a big belly, and she must pay a nutrition fee.

"Big brother, how do you know you're here?"

The boy took a bite of the beef, felt as if his strength had improved a little, and began to be curious.

"We heard bad news in the house, and this news has something to do with you."

"Me? I didn't offend anyone in the house! ”

"Yes, some people have rumored that the son is holding you, and it is also rumored that the son has a habit of breaking sleeves, and the house is in turmoil, and the master sent us out to look for you."

"Ah, what nonsense? This is frame-up. The kid had a vicious look in his eyes, he and his son were so dirty, and this time he poured dirty water on them.

The son has not yet married the mistress and entered the door, he doesn't care, he doesn't think he can get married.

The search for his family is not yet missing!

"What the hell is going on? I heard Xiao Er say, Childe drove the carriage by himself, okay, boy, you are too bold, Childe drives the carriage by himself, and he has to carry you upstairs. ”

"Oops. What's going on with my whiteness, those people were wronged, they were all those scum bandits, and I was stunned with sweat medicine, and then Gongzi was afraid that I would be hacked to death in order to escape, so he drove the carriage alone and came to this county seat. ”

"Ah, you've met bandits? How did you escape? Childe's martial arts are okay! ”

The guards remembered that before coming to Annai County, the people wearing hats sitting in the herbal tea shed, were those bandits?

"When the two of us were drinking tea in the herbal tea shed, there was a carriage that was also luxurious, and I saw two noble sons who also got out of the carriage, and a boy, the younger brother was stunned after drinking those teas.

I don't know what happened later, I heard Gongzi say that it was those noble sons, and there were Jianghu guests who saved Gongzi and his younger brother. ”

"Well, in this way, some people are kind to Childe and you, and they all feel in danger, why do you still want to come out?"

"The younger brother also asked the son, and the son said that there will be danger when walking the rivers and lakes, if you are afraid of danger and dare not come out, it is better to stay in the house and be a mediocre talent waiting for death and drinking."

The kid ate a bite of beef and mutton, his words were confused, and he was a little confused when he spoke, and he probably understood the meaning.

"Childe's ambitions are really ambitious, and it's really not something we can think of."

While the guard sighed, he put out a small bowl of so much meat, and the two of them had already eaten a small bowl when they were talking just now, it was so delicious.

……

The captain of the guard and the quacks followed the direction of the bloodstains all the way, and kept beating their horses and moving forward, and finally on a road, there were traces of a fight, and there were fragments of torn clothes.

There were no corpses on the ground, and judging from the traces of the fight, the captain of the guard must have been the result of a fierce battle, and there were knife marks and sword marks on the ground.

There were even more dry blood stains, and the chief of the guard searched the vicinity with his eyes, and found that there was a mountain side on the main road, which turned out to be no trace of the road going uphill, but someone had stepped on the grass.

There were also some bushes, marks of slashing by swords.

With a wave of his hand, the captain of the guard left one man to watch the horses, and the rest of the men followed him up the hill from the path cut out of the heart.

There are blood stains on the grass and trees, and they are all worried, is this the blood of the childe, or the blood of the robbers?

They sent to the top of the mountain, from where the trail was broken, there was blood on the ground, and there was no trace of anyone walking around.

The chief of the guard looked down from the top of the mountain, but the scenery was different from the bottom of the mountain on the other side.

As far as the eye can see, the surrounding mountains are full of peach blossom trees and plum trees, and you can see smoking from the fog.

But it is not clear whether the mountain is a village, or if there is something else.

They continued to search here, and little by little, the time passed, and seeing that winter was about to get dark, the guards had to ask everyone to retreat and descend the mountain from the original road.

Finally, before dark, he returned to the place where the horses were kept, and the guard was a little disappointed to see that he did not find the child.

The captain of the guard and the quacks were hungry and thirsty, so they drank water, got on their horses quickly, and returned from their original places.

When they came to the place of the little cart, there was a faint light in the carriage.

The captain of the guard, who was hungry and tired, remembered the bag of meat at noon and asked everyone to stop where they were and eat first.

The kid saw that everyone was back, but he didn't see the son, and he looked very anxious: "Big brothers, where is the son?" ”

The two of them sat in the carriage all afternoon, and the boy was full, tired and sleepy, and slept a little.

When he woke up, he found that the eldest brother of the guard next to him was sitting vigilantly, and the sky outside was about to darken, and he was anxious.

"If we didn't find it, we ate first, drove the horses back, and went to the next town from the other side."

The chief of the guard bought a sketch of all the towns in Annai Prefecture.

They were on the mountain just now, and they didn't go down because they were afraid of encountering jackals.

Walking from the main road, it is possible to encounter bandits, but it is safer than walking on the mountain.

"Yes"

When everyone heard the order, they were all hungry, and they gulped down meat, and each of them took a sip of wine to replenish his strength and warm his body.

The meat was at noon, and the guards who had been left here were heated by the stove, and much of the stuff in the wagon was rotten.

The stove was made of iron, unbroken, and there was a little oil left on the car, and the guards found some dry branches from the side of the road and set the stove on fire.

Keeping the meat hot and cold in winter also warms them up in the wagon in this cold and windy weather.

The guards were so attentive, and there was a wounded boy lying beside him, and this boy was asleep, afraid that he would be cold, and that he would be wounded and sick, and that it would be difficult to deal with, and it would be a burden to them.

Just after eating, everyone set off together, the original horse was injured, let the guards bandage it, after half a day of recuperation, the horse can walk but can not pull the cart.

The guards changed a new batch of horse-drawn carriages and let the wounded horse move on its own, and they must not give up this horse, this is Childe's horse.

They rode back, torches in hand, and at a fork in the road, and the captain of the guard looked at the map, and here was the road to another town.

In the darkness of the night, they hurried to that road again, and on the dark road a crowd of horses and so many torches lit up a sky.

There were no villages around the road, there were mountains on either side, and after more than an hour of driving, they heard dogs barking.

Their eyes lit up, and they continued to hurry, and on the side of the mountains on both sides of the road in front of them, they saw the village under the light of the flames.

The men who continued to drive their horses to the villages in front of them did not know that their arrival would cause panic among the people.
