After sending Yu Liang away, Wan Jinlan went to the back mountain again, and saw that everyone was not lazy, so he was relieved, but he was really a little surprised to see the results of the group's archery.

She really found a good seedling, archery is almost a hundred shots, but the posture is not so standardized, it has its own characteristics, the posture of the shoulders and arms and the eyes are not on the same level at all, but it can be shot repeatedly, which is also an evil door.

"What's your name?"

The man was a little thin among the tall bandits, and she vaguely remembered that he was one of the outcasts.

"Mrs. Hui, my name is Zhang Baoquan."

Wan Jinlan smiled and nodded, and then corrected his posture, Zhang Baoquan was very obedient, but after the arrow was shot, he almost shot Li Mazi, who was a few feet away from the arrow target.

Li Mazi jumped to his feet: "Did you kid do it on purpose!" Obviously every shot! ”

Wan Jinlan was a little silent.

Zhang Baoquan's face was already black, but now he can't see it red.

Zhang Baoquan scratched his head and said: "Madam, don't let me correct my posture, my eyes are not normal, and the posture of archery has long been developed." ”

Wan Jinlan took out the machine crossbow and handed it to him.

Immediately, Wan Jinlan saw that the bolt of the crossbow and his line of sight were not on the same level at all, and after the long nail was shot, it hit the red heart.

Wan Jinlan: "..."

This man's eyes are truly amazing.

Wan Jinlan was convinced and gave him a thumbs up.

In between everyone's training, Wan Jinlan took people to the town to buy materials for building sheds, and purchased some cauldrons and items to keep out the cold.

When the sun set in the west, the summer wind brought back more than 100 displaced people.

These people were all housed behind the mountain, and the hut was still thatched, and the soup that had been erected and boiled at the end of the house was ready.

Dr. Li Fugui and Dr. Li also came, and the displaced people were divided into three groups by him.

As usual, everyone has a big bowl of porridge, and after drinking, there is a bowl of soup and medicine, and the body is warmed up when the heart and liver are trembling.

After Wan Jinlan sent down the cold bedding, he lit a few more fires, and then arranged for people to watch this group of homeless people in the back mountain.

The large area of mountains in the back mountain is surrounded by mountains, and it is sheltered from the wind and safe.

Li Fugui also took this opportunity to give her another pulse, she fell into the problem of body cold, and recuperation was not overnight, and the medicine was taken all year round.

At noon, Wang Shu came back and said that the news had been spread.

Now that it's night, Xiao Feng hasn't even come back yet.

After Wan Jinlan had eaten, he sat by the stove and glanced at the door from time to time, worrying about whether something had happened to Xiao Feng.

At the end of the day, she couldn't sit still, so she simply put on a big coat and went to find Li Mazi.

Let Li Mazi lead the way to Python Mountain.

Li Mazi, like her, wrapped her head and face with a cloth, only revealing her eyes, and the cold wind in the night of Liangzhou was biting to the east of Liangzhou, which was not at all a level.

These bandits are very aware of the nearby terrain, and they are already familiar with the road.

Tonight's moonlight falling on the yellow earth is enough for the two of them to see the road ahead.

About half an hour later, the sound of horses' hooves was heard ahead.

Wan Jinlan stopped his horse, and finally determined that it was Xiao Feng and his party.

Xiao Feng saw her from a distance, and he was completely sure when he was close, and he knew that she was here to find him without asking.

His Jinlan is a hard-mouthed and soft-hearted person, and Xiao Feng's heart is full of heat.

If there is anyone in this world who firmly believes that he will not turn his back, she is the only one.

When I returned to the cottage again, it was already late at night.

After everyone finished their meal, they gathered together to gather news.

Xiao Feng said: "The situation in Python Mountain is different from what we thought. ”

Wan Jinlan listened attentively.

Xiao Feng went to the garrison in Gu'a Town during the day, and Li Dazhuang came forward to send a few bottles of wine to the guards at the gate of the camp, and then mentioned sending some things to his relatives.

After some inquiry, I learned that the soldiers in the camp had all left for the front line in the north this morning, and the camp was now an empty shell, with only a small number of troops left.

The barbarian Basha and Helan tribes in the north bordering Liangzhou unusually harassed the border city at this time, and Xiao Feng felt that there must be something strange in it.

Most of the nomads in the north will choose to go south to loot in July and August, because the crops are just harvested at this time, and now it is only the New Year's Festival, or the time of the cold winter wax moon, the snow in the north has not melted, the road is difficult to walk, the water and grass are not abundant, and the war horses and livestock have lost a lot of weight after a winter of consumption, which is not conducive to the south to loot, but they still do it.

Even if they knew that Great Wei was now fighting outside the house, why did they think they could win against the hundreds of thousands of troops in Liangzhou?

After hearing this, Wan Jinlan said: "Then there are only a few hundred county soldiers left in the county now?" ”

"Senior Lieutenant won't be back for a while, so we can put him aside for the time being."

Xiao Feng nodded and said, "Since there are only a few hundred county soldiers, we will take this opportunity to collect displaced people on a large scale to prevent the spread of the epidemic." ”

Wan Jinlan waited for a long time, but she didn't hear how special Python Mountain was, until the people dispersed and the two went back to the house, and he surprised her with a word.

"There is an iron mine in Python Mountain, and that group of horse bandits is just a way to hide the secret mining of iron ore."

Python Mountain is named Python Mountain because of its long snake-like mountain veins. Located at the junction of Qingyuan County and Anxian County, because of the notorious horse bandits, ordinary people do not walk that road much.

The mountains of Liangzhou are bare, and it is difficult to get in during the day, so he can only go in at night, so he came back so late today.

Xiao Feng was sure that this iron mine was not under the jurisdiction of the imperial court. Python Mountain is located in Qingyuan County, Qingyuan County also belongs to Chiwu County, it is difficult to say that the state pastor does not know the existence of this iron mine.

The existence of this iron mine made the two of them feel a little tricky.

If you want to occupy territory, the first choice is naturally to take down Qingyuan County first, but this iron mine, the county guard, or the state pastor, will not give up at all, if one is not good, it will form a situation of eating big and eating small, and their current foundation is pitiful.

Xiao Feng smoothed her eyebrows with her fingers, "Don't worry, we are new to the city, and we don't know anything about it. ”

Wan Jinlan snorted, and then applied the plaster to remove the scar on his arm.

Xiao Feng got up, pulled down the clothes on the back of her neck with a rather natural expression, applied plaster to the scar on her shoulder, and saw that the chilblains on her hands had gone down a little, and her brows relaxed.

Late at night, Xiao Feng added coal to the stove again, and only went to bed after cleaning his hands.

He patted her gently on the back, "Go to sleep." ”

Wan Jinlan didn't answer and closed his eyes.

Since leaving Beijing, the two have been together almost every day, snuggling up to each other in the cold winter and moonlit nights, and if he doesn't come back, she can't sleep at all.

She had mixed feelings, she thought she was strong enough, but in fact, after leaving her grandfather, grandmother, father, and mother, she still wanted to find someone to rely on.

Wan Jinlan rolled over, turned her back to him and opened her eyes in the dark.

Then his chest pressed against her, a hand on her waist, and his head rested on her neck, making her scalp tingle as she breathed.

"My neck is itchy, and my head is far away from me." Her urn was angry, and a layer of fine pimples had already formed on her body.

The corners of Xiao Feng's mouth curled into a shallow smile, and after she moved her head away, the hand on her waist did not move away.

Jinlan is really hard-mouthed, and when he falls asleep at night, he will unconsciously cling to him, wrapping him tightly, and now he will keep his distance.
