145 Exiles

Liu Mingdao sat aside with his long knife, pulled it out with a bang, and while holding a piece of white cotton cloth to wipe the knife, he asked casually: "What does Xiaozhao want the late lady to do?"

"It's all the little things. Li Zhao replied vaguely, reached out and put a piece of peach blossom cake into his mouth, "Brother Mingdao, Qiaojia County doesn't look that big?"

She very bluntly changed the subject.

In fact, she slept all the way, who knows if Qiaojia County is big.

But she was right, Qiaojia County is really not big due to regional reasons, it is not so much a county seat as a small town. Most of the people in the town are tough and abnormal, and they can withstand the bandits, and the rest are a group of people in the tennis inn centered on Lin Wan.

"Like the villages you see along the way, Qiaojia County has also been suffering for a long time, so a large part of the people can't stand this suffering, so they can relocate. Liu Mingdao's hand pressed on the white cotton cloth and wiped the blade of the knife one by one, "Most of these left behind are old and young, or remembering their homeland, and they are reluctant to leave, and they can't get out." ”

"Then why does the late lady want to open an inn in such a place, and whose business is it to open an inn here?" Li Zhao was a little confused.

"There are fewer people, and it is naturally difficult for parents to be officials, so the current county magistrate of Qiaojia County is a layman. ”

Speaking of this, Liu Mingdao's expression was a little gentle, with a smile in his eyes.

"Is it an acquaintance of Brother Mingdao?" Li Zhao asked when he saw his expression.

Liu Mingdao nodded, stopped the movement in his hand, raised his eyes to look at Li Zhao, and said: "He is a swordsman, and when he saw that the county order of Qiaojia County had escaped, he spent a lot of money to buy a county order. ”

As he spoke, he lowered his eyes and continued to wipe his sword, "Originally, he was going to come over today, but unfortunately there were many homeless people from the northwest of Qiaojia County recently, and he couldn't spare time, so he couldn't make the trip." ”

Li Zhao sighed, guessing the identity of this county order in his heart.

After a while, Lin Wan came back from outside, holding a large cloth bag in her hand.

"Xiaozhao, I took it myself, if you run out, you ask me to tell me about the knife, and I'll send you some more. She thoughtfully placed the cloth bag on Li Zhao's lap and whispered.

"Thank you, lady for the night. Li Zhao hurriedly held the cloth bag, looked up and said to Lin Wan with a smile.

When Yanagi saw her return, he turned his wrist and put the knife into the scabbard.

He got up and walked to Li Zhao's side and said, "Let's go, the next road will be very dangerous, and we won't stop along the way." ”

Lin Wan turned her eyes to look at him and asked, "Brother Fang has already told you?"

"Well, he told me that Yang Shoushan, the governor of Yizhou, has already fought with Zhang Jingzhong, and there is a large conscription along the line, and I am afraid that he will not live in peace along the way. Liu Mingdao nodded and replied.

"Without ...... Go see him?" Lin Wan suddenly asked, and when she asked, her eyes inadvertently swept Li Zhao who stood up.

Liu Mingdao shook his head and said, "I have asked, since he is very busy now, he is not in a hurry." ”

The two of them were beating around the bush, and although Li Zhao was a little confused, he also vaguely guessed that he was likely referring to the county order.

"Look at whom?" she asked, not giving the two men a chance to be vague.

Lin Wan didn't speak.

Instead, Liu Mingdao turned his eyes to look at her and explained: "It's what I told you just now, the county order of Qiaojia County." ”

Sure enough! Li Zhao said in his heart.

"His surname is Zhang, his name is Yuping, and he dances well at swordsmanship. Xiaozhao also uses a sword, and he will let you meet his dragon sword another day. Liu Mingdao said with a smile.

He was frank, and Lin Wan didn't hide it, his expression showed up, and said, "Xiaozhao seems to be very interested." ”

Li Zhao nodded, smiled at Liu Mingdao, and said, "I always feel very close to Brother Mingdao, and when I see the late lady, I also feel very kind." ”

This is too false to be, but Lin Wan and Liu Mingdao are very useful.

When I left Qiaojia County, the empty carriage was full of things sent by the people who had come to watch at the beginning, melons and fruits, clothes and all kinds of pastries.

Li Zhao summed up the things he received, and said with a smile: "Brother Mingdao and they feel very much like relatives." ”

Liu Mingdao rode in front of him, and when he heard Li Zhao say this, he laughed and replied: "Indeed, my relationship with them for more than ten years is more appropriate than a friend as a relative. ”

"That's good. Li Zhao exhaled lightly, leaned back, looked sideways out the window and sighed.

"Xiaozhao, if you don't mind, we can also be your relatives. Liu Mingdao seemed to sense Li Zhao's melancholy, and said very gently.

We?

Which one are we? Li Zhao thought about these two words in his heart and didn't answer.

The country road after the rain smelled fresh, and occasionally a low-flying insect fluttered its wings and swept in front of Li Zhao, she reached out and pounced, and began to play rock-paper-scissors with herself boredly.

The carriage had been gone for about an hour, and it was close to noon.

Liu Mingdao picked a not too muddy forest to park, ready to light a fire and give Li Zhao some water.

Before the water was boiling, he could hear an unknown movement in the forest behind him.

Qiang ——!

The knife is unsheathed.

In just a moment, he was thrown by Yanagi Knife's backhand in the direction where the movement came from.

Li Zhao followed and got up and looked.

The broad knife was nailed to the trunk of a large tree a few feet away in the woods behind him.

Under the tree, two ragged children, holding each other, looked at them with a wince. The two of them had dirty faces, but they couldn't hide their sparkling eyes.

"Brother Mingdao, it's two children. Li Zhao frowned and wanted to go over to see what was going on, but was dragged by Liu Mingdao.

"I'll go, Xiaozhao, stay behind me. Liu Mingdao said cautiously.

This kind of child is generally used as a front among the homeless people to deceive others and lower their vigilance. Their appearance often means that countless homeless people have been hiding around, and when the fat sheep take the bait, they will swarm and eat them.

"Who are the outcasts?" asked Li Zhao.

Along the way, Yanagi explained to her what might happen next, including the homeless. There are too many displaced people along the way, and when a person can't have enough to eat, then you can't ask others to have a moral bottom line.

"Nine times out of ten, Xiaozhao, draw your sword. Liu Mingdao advised.

Li Zhao snorted, suppressed the fear in his heart, pulled out the Three Autumn Sleepless City I am in my hand, and vigilantly followed Liu Mingdao step by step towards the two trembling children.

"No, don't kill us. Of the two children, the older one plucked up the courage to shout.

"Are your adults nearby?" asked Yana, pulling out the wide knife above their heads, lowering his eyes.
