Chang Suining rested in Nanhe County for one night, and the next day at dawn, when she got up and dressed, she knocked on the door and came in, holding a basin of warm water in her hand, and a clean cotton towel on the edge of the basin.

Chang Sui Ning washed up, and another lady army also sent the breakfast in, the breakfast was not in the inn, it was bought out, and under the instruction of the shepherd's cabbage, they did everything by themselves, and did not let the outsiders in the inn handle it. When you go out at such a juncture, you should be more vigilant.

"Girl, are we all going to stay in Nanhe County today to find someone, or are we going to go elsewhere with a few people?" After eating breakfast, the shepherd's cabbage asked Chang Suining for instructions.

Chang Sui Ning ordered three people to stay in Nanhe County, and then looked at Sheada and another women's army, and said to the two of them: "Sheencai, Zeng Huan, you two go back to Hezhou City."

Zeng Huan is a young woman in her early twenties, and like Shepherd's cabbage, she was also a native of Hezhou, and her husband died at the hands of the Xu rebels last year when she defended the city with the state assassins. After that, she still had no children and no daughters, she did not agree to her mother's proposal to let her remarry, insisted on leaving Hezhou with Shebucho and Qinghua, and followed Chang Suining away.

She is tall and sturdy, few words but careful, and diligent and motivated, and has always been outstanding and eye-catching among the more than 1,000 women's army led by Shepherd's cabbage.

At this moment, Zeng Huan heard Chang Suining say that she was asked to go back to Hezhou with Shebucha, and she was momentarily stunned.

"My lord, Zeng Huan and I don't need to go back!" "Finding talent is the top priority!"

"I have an errand for you." Chang Sui Ning said, "I will write a letter, you take it to the city, go to the Bai Ji Teahouse, hand it over to the shopkeeper of the teahouse, and ask him to pass it on to their owner."

Before Meng Lie came to Hezhou, he told Ah Che that if there was something urgent to find him, he could let people go to Hezhou Baiji Teahouse to spread the word.

The teahouse here is the hidden pile of Meng Lie in Hezhou.

"Let you go home to visit your family, just by the way." Chang Suining and Shepherd's cabbage said, "It's all in front of the house, let's go back and have a look."

Facing the girl's smiling eyes, the pursed cabbage's eyes were hot, and she nodded in response, "Huh".

Since she left with Chang Suining last year, she has not returned to Hezhou City, but she will often ask people to bring family letters and silver back.

When Chang Suining asked people to escort Huo Xin back to Hezhou, several women's soldiers from Hezhou followed him back to visit his relatives, and he was very addicted to returning to his hometown, but Shepherd's cabbage was full of achievements and refused the opportunity.

also failed to go back that time, as well as Zeng Huan.

Shepherd's cabbage only realized one thing at this moment - no wonder before leaving, the adults specially asked her to bring Zeng Huan, so that they could go home to visit relatives by the way.

Adults have a lot of opportunities every day, and they don't have a moment of leisure, but they are clearly thinking about each of them.

The reason why the shepherd's eyes are hot is because of this. As for the excitement that he will be able to see his husband and son soon, this excitement is completely non-existent.

Now she is a well-known leader of the shepherd's cabbage, who has killed the enemy with the general, made meritorious contributions, and is serious about leading the army's salary! If you really talk about excitement, it should be the excitement of the chicken dog in her house.

But what Sheada didn't expect at the moment was that when this litter of chicken dogs saw her, it could be said that they were really excited "big".

……

Shepherd's cabbage and Zeng Huan took the letter written by Chang Suining, went out of Nanhe County, and went in the direction of Hezhou City Gate.

Chang Sui Ning left three people in Nanhe County, and he took the remaining four people to leave Nanhe County and continue to search for several small villages and towns scattered nearby.

The smaller the place, the easier it is to be alarmed by strangers traveling on horseback, so Chang Sui Ning did not ride a horse again this time, but asked his subordinates to temporarily rent two ordinary green donkey carts on the road.

This time, it really didn't attract the attention and discussion of pedestrians and people.

Chang Suining opened the simple green cloth curtain, and saw that two villages appeared faintly in front of him, one on the left and one on the right, so he asked two subordinates in the other car to inquire about the village on the left, and he went to the right.

Towards noon, many families in the village had already started to light fires for cooking, and closer to it, smoke could be seen rising.

Behind the village, about 100 paces away, there is a small river, which has just rained, and the water is slightly muddy.

At this time, there is one

The slightly sluggish figure walked across the small wooden bridge.

He wore straw sandals and a dark gray coarse cloth robe, and a bag was tied around his body, and he carried a stick with a gourd for water tied to the top of the stick, like an ascetic.

He seemed to have walked for a long time, and his straw sandals were worn out, and now he came to the river, unburdened himself, and laid down on a stone beside him, and sat down against the stone to rest, and beat his sore leg.

He thrashed his hands in a snap as he looked at the village in front of him.

He had made his way all the way here, intending to settle in a few nearby villages.

He still had some silver on him that he had asked for from the Heavenly Mirror, so he inquired in these villages, found a better talker, bought a piece of land, a mud hut, and made it a place to live.

He had already inquired, this place was three hundred miles away from the place where His Highness was encamped, and if it went any further, it would be a place of martial law, and people like him would rarely be strictly investigated. If it is farther away, it will be inconvenient to inquire about the news of His Highness.

This place is under the jurisdiction of Hezhou, and the state assassin Shi Yunhui is young, but he is a good official who loves the people, it is said that he is strict under his rule and has good friends with Jiangdu, no matter how you look at it, it is the most suitable choice for settling down at the moment.

After he rested here, he went to the village to find Lizheng and tried to discuss.

But thinking of his difficult encounter like a rat crossing the street along the way, he bred himself up and moved to the river, knelt down by the river, looked down at the river and shone his face, looked left and right, and then grinned "hey" and tried to be kind.

After practicing like this for a while, Wu nodded with satisfaction: "Hmm...... yes, that's a lot more pleasing."

When he went to see Lizheng, he just laughed.

At that time, I will make up a more miserable experience, Xiaolu's divination skills, and give more money to buy houses and land...... I think it should be possible.

Wu Ji is seriously planning in his heart.

After he settled down, he tried not to go out as much as possible, not to provoke the people of the same village, and then he surrounded a fenced courtyard and planted some vegetables...... By the way, raise another litter of chickens, which chicken looks unpleasant to him and dares to nag him, he will eat it first.

Speaking of which, I really want to drink chicken soup.

The craving attacked, and Wu Ji felt remorse - he knew that when Tianjing's old goods had a treat, he should have ordered another can of chicken soup!

It is said that he should go to the city for such a greedy person, but the road guide on his body is fake, and it is easy to be found out when he enters the city, and the more lively the place, the more eyeliner, it is inconvenient to hide the traces.

Stay in this backwood.

Hungry, hungry and tired, he simply lay on the grass, pillowed his hands behind his head, and squinted at the sky above his head.

"There's nothing bad about it......," he muttered to himself.

It is not far from His Highness, and he can know the news about His Highness in time, and there is no war here for the time being...... In this world, it is good to be able to live in peace and stability.

Wu Ji closed his eyes contentedly, and the fatigue of the days of trekking made him fall asleep quickly.

In his dream, he really boiled up the chicken soup, a whole pot of hot chicken soup, boiled for an hour and a half, the tender and fragrant chicken was about to lose its bones, and there was a thin layer of golden oil floating on the soup, and he sprinkled a handful of white, white, green and green chopped shallots, and the aroma went straight to his nose.

He was clearly very greedy, but for some reason in the dream, he didn't drink it himself, but took the cotton towel, put it under his hand, picked up the clay pot, and walked towards a figure.

Although he didn't drink the soup, he was very happy, even happier than he was drinking it himself.

As he got closer, he saw the back clearly, but his feet froze, and the smile on his face became hesitant for a moment.

He seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and didn't dare to go any further, he stood in place with chicken soup in his hand, and suddenly heard countless disgusted cold eyes and scolding behind him and left and right, covering the earth and making him at a loss.

At this moment, he saw the person in front of him turn his head, it was a girl's face, she had a pair of cold eyes, but at the moment those eyes were full of smiles, she beckoned to him, and said to him, "Wuji, come quickly!"

There was another tall and mighty one beside her

The lame bearded man suddenly appeared, and he also beckoned to him: "Wuji, what are you doing in a daze, come here!"

Soon, Qiao Yang, who was smiling in a long shirt, and Meng Lie, who always had no smile in private-

The former said, "Chicken soup is nourishing with fish soup!"

The latter frowned and looked at him: "No matter how stupid you stand, the soup is cold, how can Your Highness drink it?"

"Come on!"

Wu Jie's eyes were hot, he grinned, and replied, "It's coming!"

He walked over quickly, secretly lucky in his heart—he said, well, how could His Highness and Lao Chang hate him!

He was about to come to him, but something suddenly flew and slammed into his head, and he fell backwards, about to fall.

- It's broken, chicken soup for His Highness!

Wu Ji opened his eyes suddenly, and his hands subconsciously groped twice, but there was nothing.

There is no chicken soup, and there is no His Highness and Lao Chang.

Some are just Huang Liang's stunned loss after waking up from a dream, and the thing that hit him in the head.

Wu Ji rubbed his head and face that was smashed on one side, sat up, and picked up the object, only to see that it was a bamboo ball.

He looked up and saw a group of seven or eight half-grown children walking towards it, looking for something as he went.

Seeing that it was a group of children, Wu Ji waved to them and said with a smile, "Come, here we are!"

The children then saw that there was a person here, and they ran over, and Wu Ji threw the ball back to them, thinking that it should be a child from a nearby village, and maybe they would be neighbors in the future, so they reminded them in a kind and friendly tone: "It's going to rain, don't run by the river, go home quickly, the family should come to you for dinner."

It's nice to have a home to go back to, and someone at home waiting to eat.

Hearing him say this, the eldest child in his early teens at the head looked up at the somewhat dazzling sky and said, "Where is it going to rain, it is clear that the sun will come out after the rain!"

Wu Ji shook his head with a smile and raised his hand to the west, "The rain will come from that side, and I will observe the sky."

"Can you observe the heavens?"

"Where are you from? Why haven't I seen you before?"

Several children approached to take a look because of curiosity, and after seeing the endless appearance clearly, there was an inexplicable look of defensiveness and disgust in their eyes.

"You can't be a liar!" The eldest child at the head frowned, "What are you doing in our village?"

"Yesterday, the Sanweng family at the end of the village said that they lost two chickens, and he must be a chicken thief!"

「？」 Wu Ji hurriedly waved his hand: "This is not nonsense, I only ...... today."

However, before he could finish his sentence, a dark-skinned child with a jealous eye grabbed a lump of mud and smashed it on his forehead: "Bad thief!"

Wuji was smashed so much that he had no choice but to raise his hand to shake off the mud, and just as he was about to stand up with his eyes rubbed, many children followed suit and threw mud at him.

More children have no ability to distinguish at all, just follow the coaxing, the more they smash, the more excited they become, looking at Wuji just dodging, it seems that there is no ability to fight back, while Wuji was covered in mud, the two children mustered up the courage to run to the back, one picked up the burden of Wuji, and the other picked up the wooden stick he was holding.

The boy with the stick slammed the end of the gourd on the stone, and in a few strokes knocked the gourd containing the water to pieces, and threw the stick into the river, and his expression looked very angry.

They cheered and cheered.

「…… You monkeys!" Wu Ji was a little anxious: "Hugh wants to make trouble again, quickly return the burden to me!"

"You must have stolen all of these things! I won't give it to you!" The boy tightened his baggage, turned and ran in the direction of the village.

Wu Jian shouted that he couldn't stop people, and he was so angry that he stomped his feet, so he had to hurriedly chase after him.

He was covered in mud, and his face was a mess, and the mud stuck to the short gray hair that had just grown on the sides of his head, looking embarrassed and funny.

A child pointed at him

Ha laughed, "Look at his head, it looks like the wild boar cub that my dad caught last year that hasn't even grown yet!"

"It's obviously an old pig spirit whose hair is about to fall out!"

This made the children laugh.

"Run, don't let him catch up with you!"

"Little bolt, there's a wild boar chasing you behind!"

「……」

The child with the burden was halfway through the run, and suddenly stopped, it turned out that an adult in the family had come to look for him, and it was a middle-aged man in a short beat.

The child hid behind the man and stretched out his hand to the chasing Wuji: "Second uncle, that person is a chicken thief!"

Many children with uncivilized brains will not be able to distinguish between imagination and facts, and after hearing too much imaginary things, they will default to the facts, and then say them conclusively.

"No, I'm here today...... "Endless panting to the man, explaining, "It's these children who have misunderstood and snatched my baggage from me...... Please return it to me."

In order to alleviate the impact of his face, he even smiled good-natured and saluted the man.

The man looked at him suspiciously, then reached out to the child to ask for the baggage.

When Wu Jue was about to stretch out his hand to thank him, he saw that the man opened the burden and saw that there were a lot of broken silver and copper plates inside, and the man's eyes lit up.
