Jiang Zhiluo's expression was a little dignified.

When I was visiting the market in Jiangzhou before, I heard people talk about the situation in the south.

It's just that it's just a matter of chasing after the wind, and they don't know how.

When I came to the south, I really discovered some of the situation.

Jiang Zhiluo and Cui Hejin asked some more information.

Only then did they realize that the situation in the south was more serious than they thought.

Floods washed away fields, crops, villages, and so on.

But the yamen didn't care at all, and the government was still thinking about shirking its responsibilities at this time, thinking about getting money from the people, and forcibly conscripting soldiers.

Even the readers don't care.

The man's name was Guan Wencheng, 20 years old, and after the flood, his relatives were gone.

When he said this, his face was full of sorrow.

"And what are your plans?"

Guan Wencheng said: "I thought about hiding in the mountains first, and when the yamen didn't pay attention, I fled south." ”

"Maybe when you get to the area over there, you can still see some of my relatives."

"Now most of the people in the village who are alive have fled over there."

"I also heard that there was a young man who was born out of thin air, secretly escorting everyone to the south."

This is when he was fleeing from the town and heard something say.

Jiang Zhiluo was stunned, "A boy born out of nowhere? ”

"Who is it?"

"I don't know, just know that this young man is good at marksmanship, everyone calls him a sharpshooter boy, he is very protective of ordinary people, he can compete with the government and mountain bandits, and he is very skilled."

When she heard that she was good at marksmanship, for some reason, Jiang Zhiluo's heart jumped fiercely.

She had a feeling in her heart that she was about to come out.

She thought of the Wei family.

Her brothers all know how to do marksmanship.

Except for the second brother, the other brothers' marksmanship is superb.

The second brother's best use is a knife.

In the capital, the weapons of other generals were knives, hammers, spears, and so on.

Of course, there are also those who use marksmanship, but in the Beijing martial arts competition that year, the marksmanship of the Wei family children was unique and unmatched.

So when it comes to guns, people will first think of the Wei family.

Even Cui Hejian's expression was solemn.

It would be nice if it was really Zhiluo's brother.

Jiang Zhiluo was anxious, "Do you know what that person looks like?" ”

"Or are there any characteristics that aren't?"

Jiang Zhiluo looked at Guan Wencheng with expectant eyes, her expression burning bright.

Brother?

I don't know if it's my brother.

Guan Wencheng said: "Oh yes, the government posted a notice to arrest this person, saying that he had a disfigured face and a broken right arm. ”

"He's left-handed."

"His left-hand marksmanship is also so powerful, the government has a reward, everyone protects the young man, and the people in the government can't catch him."

Jiang Zhiluo's heart beat a little fast.

Could it be the fourth brother?

Only the Wei family knows that the fourth brother is actually a left-hander.

When he was a child, he used to practice with his left hand when he held a gun.

But it seems that she grinded her grandfather when she was a child, and asked her grandfather to correct the fourth brother, and she must let the fourth brother practice marksmanship with his right hand, and he must also use his right hand in front of outsiders.

The fourth brother listened to his grandfather very much, and he doted on her as a younger sister.

She also agreed to her vexatious requests.

"And what, what else?"

Guan Wencheng shook his head and said, "I don't know anything else." ”

Jiang Zhiluo looked at Cui Hejin and said, "Let's hurry to the south, maybe we will run into him." ”

In any case, she had to check to see if the man was her brother.

Cui Hejin also realized something, and said, "Okay, let's go!" ”

Guan Wencheng looked at the two people, and he reacted, "Two benefactors, I'...... Can I stay with you? ”

"Although I am a scholar, I can do a lot of things, I can do laundry, cooking, chopping wood and making fires, I can hunt and farm, and I can sew clothes."

Guan Wencheng has read books, not only sensible, but also knows how to read people.

He felt that the two benefactors were not ordinary people at first glance.

He and his two benefactors will definitely survive.

Of course, he also wanted to repay the favor.

A gentleman who receives favor from others should repay it.

Jiang Zhiluo looked at Guan Wencheng's figure in surprise, looking like a scholar, would he do so much work?

"Aren't you a scholar, how can you do so many things?"

Guan Wencheng said: "When I was a child, my family was good, my father and mother could send me to study, and I didn't need to do some housework, but then my father was sick, and my mother couldn't do so much work, and there were many fields at home, so I helped to do things." ”

"In order to subsidize the family, I copy books or help the family do some work in my spare time, and I will also learn to hunt with the hunters in the village, and occasionally sell the prey in the town, and I can also make some money."

In order to be able to read, Guan Wencheng worked hard.

Jiang Zhiluo looked at this person's determined expression and looked at Cui Hejian.

Cui Hejin nodded and said, "You can bring it." ”

Jiang Zhiluo nodded and said, "Okay, you follow us." ”

"Thank you benefactor, thank you benefactor."

Since Jiang Zhiluo wanted to bring Guan Wencheng with her, she naturally couldn't let him be so weak.

Jiang Zhiluo took another pill and handed it to Guan Wencheng: "This is an elixir that can quickly replenish the body's energy, and you can recover some strength after eating it." ”

Before Jiang Zhiluo and Cui Hejin were ready to leave, she prepared some spare medicine in advance, just for use on the road.

There are all kinds of them.

"Yes."

Guan Wencheng ate it without hesitation.

He knew that his benefactor would not harm him, and if he wanted to harm him, he would not have saved him just now.

Just like that, the group hurried quickly.

I have to say that Guan Wencheng is like a living map, and he knows the road here very well.

They walked on small paths and tried to bypass the people of the government.

After walking for two days, they saw the two teams in front of them on a small road.

They were dressed in shabby clothes and their clothes were thin.

Fortunately, it is not very cold in the south at this time.

If this were to the north, these people would probably freeze their bodies if they were so thinly dressed.

Guan Wencheng said: "These should be villagers fleeing the famine, they are all united as a village, fleeing the famine together, and they can also take care of each other." ”

Jiang Zhiluo looked at the two teams in front of her, a team of more than ten or twenty people.

Everyone carried the burden of carrying baskets and things, and some of them were very thin.

"Is there only so many people in a village?"

Guan Wencheng said: "No, our water system is developed, the fields are fertile, and generally there are one or two hundred people in a village, and some villages are very large, with hundreds of people. ”

"It was also after the flood that there were many dead and injured."

"In fact, the embankment was unstable before, but the imperial court didn't care about it at all, and even the money allocated to build the embankment was embezzled by the officials."

As he spoke, Guan Wencheng looked sad.

……

The two teams in front of them walked separately, and their expressions were also very vigilant, and the strong laborers in the village would automatically protect everyone around them.

When you see someone suddenly on the road, you will be very vigilant.

Just seeing that there were only three people and dressed very ordinary, he relaxed his vigilance.

One of these villages is Niejia Village, and after the floods, there were a lot fewer people in the village.

Perhaps in order to avoid danger, they walked fast and did not rest much.

There was little to eat, and at noon that day, an old woman suddenly fainted.

"Grandma, grandma, what's wrong with you?"
