Wu Nian wants to go out, and the family naturally knows about it.

Early in the morning, the whole family sat around a large round table and ate, including Chen, who was sick and sick, and was pregnant.

Everyone stood in front of the door of the weeping flowers again to bid farewell to Wu Nian.

"Brother. Going out is no better than in Beishan Fort, you are a little more careful. Liu Xiang was very reluctant to Wu Nian, holding Wu Nian's broad palm, reluctant to give up.

"Master." Chen's face was pale, and she needed Wu's support to stand, she bit her lip lightly, opened her mouth to speak, but only shouted Ye.

If it weren't for her, a sick seedling, she would have dragged the oil bottle.

Where does he need to worry about so many things?

She felt guilty.

"Master. You cherish it all the way. Wang Ruyan came forward and blessed Wu Nian. Xiaohong followed closely and nodded quickly.

The clothes worn by the big and small beauties have not changed, but their hair has changed. The bun of an unmarried girl became a woman's bun.

They are members of the Wu family, born in the Wu family, and they will enter the ancestral grave of the Wu family when they die.

"Rest assured. It's going to be safe. Wu Nian showed a confident smile to the women, then looked at Wang Ruyan and said, "Ruyan." The family will be handed over to you. ”

"Hmm." Wang Ruyan looked back at the delicate Chen and nodded heavily.

In addition, Wu Nian has nothing to explain. He took a steel knife and stuck it in his waist, strode out of the mansion, and joined Zhang Jin, Long Ji, Chen Jiagui and others, took many baggage carts, and went to the north.

Wu Nian was a reasonable man, and took out all his net worth, 1,500 taels of silver, half a box of Dongzhu, and planned to buy a century-old wild ginseng from Zhang Shiping.

However, just in case, he divided the soldiers of the hundred households into two parts.

Tie Niu, Wang Gui, Zhang Sheng, Li Yong and others guarded Beishan Fort, and the rest followed him to the north.

Beifang Jiang County is half of Zhang's territory.

This time, Wu Nian didn't want to cause trouble, so he chose a secluded path, bypassed Jiang County, and went straight to the north.

The stronghold of the big businessman Zhang Shiping is in Dongyuan City. It is a castle located in the side of the city.

The local trade is extremely developed, and the special products such as furs, Dongzhu, Haidongqing, and ginseng of the Mengyuan people, as well as various delicate things such as tea and silk from the south, are traded there.

Zhang Shiping's influence in the local area is extremely high.

Now that the weather has cooled, it is also the season when the plague is beginning to subside.

Mosquitoes breed in summer, and the ancients did not pay much attention to hygiene. As far as Wu Nian knows, some people drink unboiled water all year round.

The plague arose naturally.

When the weather is cooler, everything will be fine.

When Wu Nian led everyone along a secluded mountain road to a mountain village, he was a little uncomfortable.

This mountain village is called Lijia Village, just listen to the name. In the village, the surname is mostly Li. The mountain village is remote. In my memory, the original owner has been here twice.

Originally, it was a very comfortable mountain village.

There is not a lot of arable land in the village, but there is a lot of mountain goods in the mountains. The people in the village are very industrious, and men, women and children can carry bamboo baskets on their backs and look for mushrooms, Ganoderma lucidum, medicinal herbs and other mountain goods to sell in the mountains.

But when Wu Nian led people to the entrance of the mountain village, he saw that every household was hanging white sails, although no one was crying, but the people in the village were full of sorrow.

There is a man named Li Guanghan in the mountain village. He was a friend of Wu's father. After Wu Nian thought for a while, he carried a very heavy bag of rice from his baggage, carried it on his shoulder, and entered the mountain village with Zhang Jin.

Following the memory, Wu Nian came to Li Guanghan's home. A five-room stone and brick house against a hill with a large open space in front of the door.

Wu Nian saw Li Guanghan sitting on a stone from a distance, holding a smoking gun in his hand, swallowing clouds and spitting fog, and the expression on his face was full of sadness.

"Uncle Li. It's me. Xiao Wu. We've come to see you. Wu Nian glanced at the white sail hanging at the door, sighed, and then shouted, striding over.

"It's Xiao Wu." Li Guanghan was stunned for a moment, then stood up and looked at Wu Nian with some uncertainty.

He hadn't seen Wu Nian for five or six years. I heard that in Beishan Fort, there was a Wu Nian who killed tigers, but it is probably not the same person.

In memory, Lao Wu's son didn't have that guts.

"Uncle Li. It's normal that you don't recognize me, I've grown taller and stronger. Wu Nian smiled and put down the rice bag on his shoulder. said: "After so many years, I haven't come to visit you. I'm so sorry. This time I happened to be passing by, and I brought a little rice to honor you. ”

"Xiao Wu, you have a heart." Only then did Li Guanghan determine that this was Xiao Wu, and a slight smile appeared on his face.

Immediately, Li Guanghan greeted Wu Nian warmly, and secretly told his daughter-in-law to get some mountain goods as a return gift.

The people in the mountains are simple, and he will not harvest Wu Nian's rice in vain.

Li Guanghan talked to Wu Nian, and what he said was about Wu's father. He didn't ask Wu Nian, who killed the tiger in Beishan Fort, if it was you Xiao Wu.

He didn't think about it at all.

Wu Nian inquired about the situation at Li Guanghan's family. His family of six is an adult, namely Li Guanghan and his wife, the eldest son and his wife, and the younger son and his wife.

As a result, two died.

They are Li Guanghan's wife and youngest son.

And listening to Li Guanghan, his family is good. There are people who are all dead.

"It's all fate. God wants to take people's lives, how can we ordinary people stop it? Li Guanghan took out a big cigarette gun and sighed.

Wu Nian and Zhang Jin shook their heads, what a fate. If you don't accept your fate, you can change your life.

The situation at Fort North Hill is much better.

"The official who hates me is too small. If only I were a prefectural magistrate or a prefect. Or a thousand households, or something. More lives can be saved. ”

Wu Nian said secretly in his heart.

Wu Nian said some things to Li Guanghan, refused Li Guanghan's retention for dinner, and did not ask Li Guanghan for mountain goods, so he took Zhang Jin with him and went back to the village empty-handed.

Then the team set out again and headed north.

Li Guanghan stood at the entrance of the village, looking at Wu Nian with a large team of people in disbelief, shouting five and six, he was clearly a leader.

"Could it be that Wu Nian, who killed the tiger in Beishan Fort, is Xiao Wu not successful?"

"Old Wu, old Wu, your son, it's out."

Li Guanghan said secretly in his heart.

From Beishan Fort to Dongyuan City, it almost crossed the entire Liaodong. What Wu Nian saw along the way were four words.

Devastation.

In this household, there is still a remnant of crying.

I don't know how many graves have been added to this hill.

This plague killed the entire Liaodong and took the lives of an unknown number of Han people.

Wu Nian's mood went from sad to numb.

In the midst of heaviness.

On the morning of this day, Wu Nian finally led the team to the southern gate of Dongyuan City. As soon as he arrived, Wu Nian's brows furrowed, and his eyes looked ahead unkindly.
