Three or four times, the same color people in the sea and sky died and were injured in the city
When these people escaped, they were all so excited that they forgot that the sky had become so bright and thorough! The rain for days had also extinguished people's spirits, and looking at this day at this time also added a lot of strength to the three of them! The boat went down the water, and it was also very fast, and after a short time, when they looked back at the cliff, the water on the cliff had already disappeared into the shade of the trees, and they could no longer see it. The forests on both sides of the river are very luxuriant, and when the sun comes out, it is immediately too hot to do so, and the humidity goes up, and is stopped by the branches and leaves, if you stay in the forest, it must be unbearable! Fortunately, the three of them stayed in the boat, all the way down, and there was some wind, so they didn't feel anything.
On this way to the south, the river went round and round in the woods, and occasionally the tree fell into the river and stopped the boat, and there was no other trouble. Xiao Yi was full of anticipation, and his heart had already flown back to the big ship, with his wife and children on board, as well as the meticulous Gu Yan and the cynical old garlic, oh yes, and the cat slave who was seriously injured to save Yao'er!
Xiao Yi listened to Shi Xiaolong talk about it, and probably knew that there was a distance between them, and if he came from the forest, he was afraid that it would take several days of hard work! But the boat traveled in this river, there were many fewer obstacles, and he didn't need to contribute, it was easy and fast, no wonder Na Wu would choose to go out of the valley from here! However, the small river went around and around, and it was also a lot more distance. Before it got dark that day, Shi Xiaolong chose an excellent spot to stop the boat, and rested there for the night. After dawn on the second day, the boat continued on its way, and in this way the water flowed from a small river to a large river into a small lake. The area is already inhabited, you can see fishing boats, there are some scattered drifts on the lake, and you can hear the sound of dogs barking. But a few people didn't stop, and continued to go downstream, because this place was not far from Nayazhou City, and they could arrive before nightfall!
Walking on this small boat, Xiao Yi can already see the legendary Yazhou City, but this appearance is really a little shabby.
Tong Lu shook his head and sighed,
"This is Yazhou City? I still want to go into the city, I can eat and drink well, looking at this appearance, it seems that there is not much possibility!"
It turns out that this Yazhou city looks small in scale, although there are city walls, but they are all mud rammed earth cities, and what is even worse is that this city wall is in tatters, which looks like a city! Xiao Yi also shook his head when he saw it.
Shi Xiaolong was shocked and said,
"This, what's going on!"
Xiao Yi was puzzled and asked him,
"Cousin, what's the problem?!"
SHI Xiaolongdao,
"Could it be, is there someone attacking the city?!"
Xiao Yi sighed and asked,
"What did you say, cousin, what siege?!"
Shi Xiaolong said urgently,
"If it weren't for the siege, how could this wall be rotten like this!"
Xiao Yitong Lu glanced at each other, and then he understood why Shi Xiaolong was so nervous!
Xiao Yidao,
"No, this city is so calm, and there are pedestrians and soldiers, I don't see anything abnormal!"
Shi Xiaolong shook his head like a rattle and replied,
"Could it be that the fight has already been completed?!"
The three of them no longer speculated, docked the boat, and went over to inquire in person! Before coming to the city, there were several masons preparing to build the city wall, and other military men sent materials from outside to help with the mud. One of the guards guarding the city gate saw that Xiao Yi Tong Lu was a little angry, and he also came forward to ask for details, but before he could speak, he was interrupted by the speech of a person behind him.
The man shouted,
"Xiao Yi, Lu Lu, you're here too!"
Xiao Yi and the others also replied to him enthusiastically,
"Brother Liang Duo, I didn't expect to see you here!"
This person is Liang Duo, who has not been seen for several days since he parted from that boat, and when he sees him at this time, he is an old man in a foreign land, and he feels very cordial! Liang Duo is shirtless, and his skin is extremely tanned, which is really different from before! Liang Duo ran over and hugged Xiao Yi warmly. The two saw that Liang Duo was familiar with the three of them, so they were relieved to go back. The two sides exchanged pleasantries for a while, and just then they talked about the matter of Yazhou City, Xiao Yi asked,
"Brother Liang Duo, how many days ago there was a big battle in this city?"
Liang Duo's face was dignified, and he lowered his head,
"But isn't it, if you look at the appearance of this city wall, you will know how fierce the fight was that day!"
Xiao Yi asked him suspiciously,
"Someone actually came to attack the city, what is there to attack in this broken city!"
This was said louder, and it was also heard by the people next to him, the other party looked at each other angrily, Xiao Yi waved his hand apologetically, but the other party didn't say anything.
Liang Duo pulled Xiao Yitong Lu and walked to the city together.
"Let's go to the city first, and talk as we go! Uncle is busy, and I'll take you to see him later!"
Xiao Yi exclaimed,
"Hey, why can't Lord Huang come? Heh, this is strange, such a small city can hide this big Buddha!"
Liang Duohuidao,
"If it weren't for my uncle getting the exact news and urgently summoning soldiers and horses over, whether this city could be kept has to be said separately!"
Xiao Yi sighed and asked him back,
"It's not been a few days, Lord Huang is really fast!"
Liang Duohuidao,
"Uncle only went ashore one day later than us, and he took a different route, so we didn't have that chance to meet! When I got the news, he was in Leizhou, so it was very convenient for him to come over! Of course, it was impossible for him to come alone, and he also brought his own personal guards and ready-made soldiers from Leizhou. As soon as I entered the city gate, I began to impose martial law, checking people everywhere, and clearing all the spies in the city! My uncle's army and people organized themselves and strengthened their vigilance, and because of the unified command arrangement, everything seemed to be in order. Although I believe my uncle's words, I can't figure it out, such a bird doesn't pull ...... Well, what is the value of such a small city worth attacking! But I was wrong, I was very wrong, there were thousands of people here, all of them were fully armed, and the posture was very powerful, and then I understood why my uncle was so serious! If he hadn't made arrangements earlier, this city would have changed its owner a long time ago!"
Xiao Yi was also puzzled, and asked again,
"This is also strange, why did the other party capture this city again!"
Liang Duo sighed and shook his head, and replied,
"Who knows, maybe you want to enter the city and loot some money and materials!"
Xiao Yidao,
"I don't think it's that simple, you just said that they are fully armed, and the purpose is definitely not just to rob them! Also, this matter can alarm Lord Huang, so it will definitely not be a trivial matter!"
Liang Duo nodded and replied,
"Brother Xiaoyi, what you said is good! Let's not guess, when we see our uncle, everything will come out!"
Xiao Yi smiled and said,
"Then let's talk about you, didn't you come here with that group of prisoners first, whatever, are they all sent to the place?!"
Liang Duo seemed to be sad by him, and his mood immediately became extremely low.
"I, I, I'm so useless, I can't even do this little thing!"
Xiao Yi asked,
"Haven't you already arrived in Yazhou City, isn't this the destination yet?!"
Liang Duo shook his head and replied,
"We wanted to send it to a place thirty miles west of the city, but my uncle had already sealed the city and wouldn't let us go out! Later, the other side attacked the city and the fight was inextricable, and my uncle told us to watch these prisoners and not care about the defense of the city! Of course we did the same, but the siege team was also very tight, and although it was heavily damaged, it still attacked the city. We encountered a group of men and horses, and the two sides fought, and although we won the final victory, those criminals all took advantage of the chaos and fled! We searched everywhere, but we only found three or five slower ones! When my uncle found out, he was so angry that he scolded us so much that he couldn't even raise his head!"
Xiao Yidao,
"Hey, I think you've done your best!"
Shi Xiaolong smiled helplessly, and said,
"But I didn't get the job done!"
A few people walked to the street, but it was also wide, Xiao Yi looked at the clothes of the people who came and went, hey, there were a lot of outsiders, thinking about the prosperity of this business, there are so many foreign merchants, it is not surprising! Crossing this street, Shi Xiaolong took Xiao Yi and the two of them to the side of the city, standing on the top of this city, they could look at the sea! The weather was extremely hot, but a little breeze helped them over, and it was also much more comfortable. This vast sea, far away from the blue sky, seems so harmonious.
Liang Duo whispered,
"Let's take a look at the sea here, and my uncle will come to check the city defense in a while, and we can wait for him here!"
Xiao Yi nodded,
"Look at the sea, it's not boring!"
Xiao Yi looked at it for a while, suddenly became sad, and asked Liang Duodao,
"By the way, Brother Liang Duo, do you have any news about Bai Qing's daughter?!"
Liang thought about it for a while, shook his head and replied,
"I've been in a hurry since I left that ship, and then I've joined the war, so I don't have time to know so much! If they hadn't arrived in the direction of Yazhou City, there shouldn't have been any mistakes!"
Tong Lu also said,
"Brother Xiaoyi, you don't have to worry, Bai Qing will definitely be fine with Xiao Erhei, who is a ghost and a ghost! As for Yue'er, they are staying on the boat, and there are garlic seniors in control of the overall situation, how can something happen!"
Xiao Yi smiled and replied to him,
"I hope so!"
Liang Duo comforted him and said,
"This Yazhou City is hundreds of miles away from where we went ashore, how can this war affect them!"
Xiao Yi smiled, but he relaxed a lot!
Tong Lu looked around, and suddenly saw Shi Xiaolong shaking on the side, he was coaxing the girl again, and the loving look was overflowing!
Tong Lu quipped,
"Hey, cousin, do you want to be a father?!"
Shi Xiaolong pursed his mouth, just signaling Tong Lu to be quieter, Tong Lu shook his head and sighed for a while, and found that something was not quite right. At this moment, Liang Duo also looked at the warm scene, so he asked softly,
"By the way, why did your cousin take that child alone, and where did her mother go?!"
Xiao Yitong Lu all widened his eyes, this, this is too complicated, for a while, I am afraid that I can't tell it clearly! Liang Duo saw the two of them wandering, and he was very puzzled. Xiao Yi smiled awkwardly and pouted in the direction of the girl. Liang Duo felt strange, but he still approached to see the girl, and after only one look, he exclaimed,
"Ah, cousin, cousin!"
