Chapter 326: Scratch Your Tongue

"You plagued old bastard, I didn't expect you to do such a thing since I married you."

Immediately after a brief moment of stunned, the woman angrily rushed to Lao Zhang, grabbed him by the hair, and roared.

"Mother! Mother! Don't be angry! โ€

"Mother, you are angry!"

Seeing this, the two sons immediately stepped forward to pull their parents apart.

But at this time, the woman was so angry that she completely lost her mind, and she was scratching Lao Zhang's face with her teeth and claws at this time.

The scene in front of me directly made the daughter and daughter-in-law on the side stupid.

They had never seen this side of their mother and mother-in-law.

"You conscienceless old bastard! I'm blind! โ€

After the old woman had been pulled away by her two sons, she sat down on the ground and began to cry.

"Mother! Now that things have happened, let's go to Linhuai County first! โ€

Lao Zhang's eldest son saw that the child in his daughter-in-law's arms was frightened by his grandmother's cry just now, so he immediately helped his mother up and comforted him.

"What are you going to Linhuai County? Go to the house of this old thing and the fox? My mother won't go even if she dies, I feel disgusted! โ€

In the face of her son's persuasion, the woman refused to back down.

"But mother, where else can you go if you don't go to Linhuai County?"

The second son heard that his mother was unwilling to go to Linhuai County, so he also persuaded him.

"I'm going back to Sizhou County, I'd rather die of smallpox than go to Linhuai County."

Then the woman took her burden on her back and turned to the way she had come.

Seeing that his daughter-in-law was angry and wanted to go back to Sizhou County, Lao Zhang, who knew that he was at a loss, didn't know what to do.

But his eldest son was not worried about his mother, so he took his daughter-in-law and children and chased after his mother.

They were followed by Lao Zhang's youngest daughter.

At this time, only Lao Zhang and his second son were left in the same place.

The cold moonlight sprinkled on the two of them made them look particularly desolate.

"Dad, what should we do now?"

The second son looked at his mother, sister-in-law, and sister who disappeared into the night, and he scratched his head and asked.

"Humph! If they want to go back, let them go back, what can I do with a manly man and a concubine? โ€

Lao Zhang touched his cheek with his hand, and immediately he felt a tingling sensation, so he immediately said angrily.

"Dad, you didn't do it right, if you had told your mother just now, it wouldn't have been like this!"

The second son didn't expect that his father hadn't realized his mistake until now, so he had to smile wryly and shake his head and then turn his head to chase his mother.

"A group of wolf-hearted rebels, you don't want to think about who raised you all these years!"

Lao Zhang saw that his family had left him, so he couldn't help jumping to his feet and scolding.

After he scolded loudly for a while, Lao Zhang finally scolded him and sat on the ground.

"Without you rebels, my old Zhang family will not be broken, and from now on, the son that Xiao Tao gave me is the only heir of my Zhang family."

The tired old Zhang muttered to himself.

But while he was sitting on the ground panting, several figures had quietly bypassed him and surrounded him in the middle.

"Hmph, Lao Tzu will go to Linhuai County City now!"

Lao Zhang stood up as he spoke, ready to continue in the direction of Huaishui.

But as soon as he stood up, he found that two or three figures suddenly appeared in front of him.

Lao Zhang's first reaction was that he had encountered bandits.

So he immediately turned around and prepared to flee.

But when he turned his head, he found that there were several people behind him blocking his way.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am just a fleeing people who have no property, and please spare your little old man's life!"

Lao Zhang knelt down for these people at once.

used to be angry that his family left him, but now he is very glad that his wife and children have left.

Not only that, but they also took most of their belongings with them.

Therefore, even if these bandits really tried to forcibly search his body, they would not find anything of value.

"Who are you?"

Just when Lao Zhang was secretly rejoicing, he heard a man with a strange accent in the group ask.

"I am a person from Sizhou County, and now I plan to go to Linhuai County to join my relatives."

Lao Zhang consciously raised his hands above his head to show these people that he had no intention of resisting.

"Sizhou County?"

Hearing these four words, the people who surrounded Lao Zhang couldn't help but be happy.

Immediately, they quickly stepped forward and surrounded Lao Zhang.

It wasn't until this time that Lao Zhang realized that these people in front of him were dressed very strangely.

In his cognition, most of the clothes worn by the people of the Dayu Dynasty were made of silk and cotton and linen.

But the clothes worn by these people were made of fur.

Immediately, Lao Zhang observed again, and found that the hairstyles of these people were completely different from those of Dayu people.

In the traditional concept of the Dayu Dynasty, the body is the parent of the skin, so the Dayu people generally do not shave their hair easily.

But these people in front of them are completely different, their hairstyles are strange, some have shaved the top of the middle of the head bald, some have shaved the hair on both sides, and some people have directly braided their hair into small braids.

"These guys are steppe people!"

In an instant, Lao Zhang guessed the identity of these people in front of him, and at the same time, his heart sank to the bottom all of a sudden.

In his opinion, if he encountered bandits, maybe he could still save his life, but what he met now were grassland people, and there were so many grassland people, then his life was afraid that he would not be able to save his life.

"Leave him on the Khan's side, I think the Khan and the Shaman will have questions for this guy."

A few grassland soldiers really didn't expect that they would meet a Sizhou county man in this wilderness.

For them, this is simply a credit from the sky.

Then several people excitedly escorted Lao Zhang to Muhua Li Falcon and Murong Tongwei.

And Mu Hua, Li Falcon and Murong Tongwei didn't expect that someone caught a tongue just after they abandoned the boat and went ashore for not long to rest.

"I heard that you are from Sizhou County?"

Mu Hua Li Falcon sat under the tree and stared at the hunched old man in front of him.

"Returning to the heroes, the heroic little old man is really a person from Sizhou County."

Although Lao Zhang had already guessed that these people in front of him were grassland people, he still pretended not to know.

Because he was afraid that after he revealed the identities of these people, they would directly kill themselves in order to keep the secret.

"Hmph, it is said that Dayu people are more slippery, but now it looks like this."

Mu Hua Li Falcon immediately saw through Lao Zhang's thoughts.

However, he also had to admire the wit of the old man in front of him.

"Da Yu is indeed very cunning, it is better for me to abolish one of his arms first, so that this guy may be more honest, and he will not dare to lie if we ask questions."

Wan Qi Yuele was very disgusted with the cleverness of the Dayu people, in his opinion, the Dayu people were all cheap, and they would be honest if they beat them first.

"Everyone, spare your lives! If you have any questions, the little old man will answer truthfully, and he will never dare to deceive him! โ€

Lao Zhang heard Wan Qi Yuele say that he wanted to remove one of his arms, and he couldn't help but kneel on the ground in fright, and then kowtowed and pleaded.

At the same time, he also scolded the ancestors of these grassland tribesmen in his heart.

"You can also see that there are people on our side who want to remove one of your arms, but I don't think there is any need to make it so bloody between people, everyone can open their hearts and communicate well, right?"

Mu Hua Li Falcon was very satisfied when he saw Lao Zhang kowtowing vigorously and begging for mercy, so he spoke.

"That's right, that's right, the hero is right, Xiao Lao'er is the most honest and dutiful, and he will definitely not lie."

Lao Zhang immediately kowtowed to Mu Huali Falcon as if he had grasped a life-saving straw and said.

"Okay, let me ask you who is the county guard of Sizhou County now, and how many troops do you have in Sizhou County?"

Mu Huali Falcon didn't mean to beat around the bush at all, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he asked the question he wanted to know the most.

And Lao Zhang immediately understood after hearing Mu Hua Li Falcon's question, and these grassland tribes in front of him wanted to attack his Sizhou county town.

"It seems that you old dog is still really dishonest, and I think it would be a good idea to remove one of your arms first."

Murong Tong saw Lao Zhang's two eyes rolling around, and immediately understood that this guy must be preparing to make up nonsense, so he immediately took out the scimitar on his waist and put it on Lao Zhang's neck.

Feeling the cold feeling coming from his neck, Lao Zhang was frightened.

"Be a good man and slow down, I say, I'll say anything!"

In the face of the threat of death, Lao Zhang didn't think about it, and said all the answers that the other party wanted.

"The county guard of our Sizhou county is Lord Yan Wuping, and there were originally a total of 1,500 city guard battalion guards in the city, and in order to assist in the defense of the imperial capital, the county guard sent 500 city guard battalion guards to the north."

"Doesn't you look good?"

Seeing that Lao Zhang said what he wanted to know in one breath, Mu Huali Falcon nodded with satisfaction.

"Then how did the soldiers of the Thousand City Guard Battalion in Sizhou County arrange the defense?"

Although the defenders of Sizhou County were as strong as 1,000 people, Muhua Li Falcon still did not dare to take it lightly.

It seems that there are more than 20,000 people on his side, but if he really attacks the city, he will not be able to take it easily.

After all, there are no siege equipment on his side, but the other party is stationed in the city and occupies a geographical advantage.

"This little old man really doesn't know much!"

Although Lao Zhang said that he was an authentic person from Sizhou County, he was only a businessman after all, so he was really not clear about the distribution of military forces in the city.

"You old guy really can't give you a good face, and now I'm going to chop off one of your arms."

Wan Qi Yuele heard Lao Zhang say that he didn't know the distribution of troops defending the city, and couldn't help but be angry.

He kicked Lao Zhang to the ground, then stepped on his face and pulled out the saber at his waist with a bang.

"A good man spares his life, how can the little old man just be an ordinary person who knows the difference between the forces in the city!"

Feeling the tremendous power of his face, Lao Zhang's three souls and seven spirits were about to be scared away.

He had heard the storytellers in the city say that the people of these steppe tribes were brutes who drank blood, and what they liked most was to kill people and send people.

At the time, he thought it was just an exaggeration by the storytellers.

But now he realized that those storytellers didn't say anything at all, and these guys were indeed brutes who drank blood and killed people.

"In that case, what are we going to keep you for?"

Wan Qi Yuele immediately pressed harder on his feet, and at the same time, his hands had already raised the long knife in his hand and he was about to cut it down.

"A good man spares his life, spares his life! Little Lao'er has important news to say. โ€

Lao Zhang was completely frightened by Wan Qi Yuele at this time.

Originally, he didn't plan to tell the things in Sizhou County, but now he felt that if he didn't say something, he was afraid that his life would not be saved.

"Oh! Hear if there's any important news!

Immediately, Mu Hua Li Falcon raised his hand to stop Wan Qi Yuele.

"At this time, there should be no defenders in Sizhou County."

"Oh? Didn't you just say that the Sizhou county guard only sent 500 people to the imperial capital? There should be about a thousand city guards left in the city, why do you now say that there are no defenders in Sizhou County? โ€

Mu Hua Li asked with a frown.

"Don't you think we people can't be fooled?"

Murong Tongwei also had a hint of murderous intent towards the old man in front of him at this time, he knew that a person like Lao Zhang would not be honest no matter what.

"Xiao Lao'er really didn't lie to all the heroes, there are really no city guards in Sizhou County at this time."

Lao Zhang gently patted the foot that was stepping on his face, and only after Wan Qi Yuele let go a little bit did he hurriedly speak.

"Why is this happening? Where have all these guards gone? โ€

Mu Huali Falcon couldn't help but ask curiously.

Although their steppe tribe has been fighting against the Dayu Dynasty for hundreds of years, they still don't know much about the various local official and military positions of the Dayu Dynasty.

"Don't hide it from you, at this time, not only is there no city guard battalion guarding the city, but even the people in the city have all run out."

Lao Zhang gritted his teeth and said.

"What? Is there no one left in the city? โ€

Mu Hua, Li Falcon, and all these grassland tribesmen looked at Lao Zhang in surprise.

"That's right, there is really no one in Sizhou County at this time."

Although Lao Zhang left the city early with his family, he was not in a hurry to escape like everyone else.

At that time, his idea was that when the people in the city were almost gone, he was quietly hiding back with his family, and as long as his family was all hiding at home and no one was there, it was unlikely that he would be infected with smallpox.

But then he found out that the county guard had taken all the remaining men out of the city, including the 1,000 city guards.

"What the hell is the situation, you tell me specifically, if you use your brain again, I really can't help you."

When Mu Hua Li Falcon heard that there was no one in Sizhou County, his heart couldn't help but cool.

This time, he originally planned to get some grain and grass from Sizhou County to replenish it, but now he couldn't help but feel angry when he heard Lao Zhang say that there was no one in the city.

"That's ยทยทยทยทยทยท"

Immediately, Lao Zhang told the matter completely.

And with Lao Zhang's story, Mu Hua Li Falcon's originally low mood became more and more excited.

Originally, he thought that no one in Sizhou County was uneven, but now he thought that no one in Sizhou County was definitely the favor of the wolf king god.
