Team Leader Du was taken aback: "Master Bing, how could such a big village be sealed? Mrs. Wu and her entourage walked in front of them, and it was from here that they entered the village, and he could see it clearly. Why didn't you let me go when I got here?

"They're from the village, aren't you?"

The purchasing steward stuffed a small ingot of silver into him and gave it to him: "Our little master's family is still waiting for medicine to save their lives, and it is not easy to drive dozens of miles of mountain roads." We left as soon as we bought the medicine, and we didn't stay for a moment!"

The soldier leader pushed the silver back, glaring at him by the way, "No, no, no, why do you say so much!"

Another veteran also stepped forward to help, and his voice was gentle: "The leader is also for your good." Something has happened in this village, even if we let you go, you can't get in or out, so it's better to turn around and leave now. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a young man of about thirteen or fourteen years old approaching, looked up and asked him, "What has happened in the village?"

The soldier leader didn't want to talk to the child: "The rain girl has no melon, go back." ”

Yan Saburo didn't give up, but took a step closer: "How long will it be closed, we can wait." ”

"Then who knows?" the soldier leader waved his hand at him, "Maybe two or three days, maybe ten days and a half months, no one can be sure, I don't think you have to wait." ”

Before the words fell, there were suddenly two booming sounds in the distance, and even the ground trembled faintly.

Yan Saburo is already familiar with this kind of movement: explosions.

The cat behind him also looked up into the distance, pricking up its ears in the direction of Hongmo Village.

The explosion, right there.

The face of the soldier leader changed, and he said to his subordinates: "Bring five people, go to support quickly." Then he turned to the caravan, his face turned cold, "See, it's not very peaceful there." Hurry up, or I'll take your signs down!"

So the county soldiers at the checkpoint divided five more people and jumped into a big car and rushed to Hongmo Village. The caravan had no choice but to turn to the way it came.

Team Leader Du came to ask Yan Sanlang: "What are your plans?"

After all came here, Yan Saburo didn't think twice: "Go back to the inn and stay first, and wait and see the situation." "The needle flower in his hand is only enough for half a month, and after that, it will be a little troublesome.

Autumn is already halfway over, and there are fewer and fewer caravans still going into the mountains, and the inn where the food was used before must have rooms. Team Leader Du also felt that this was a solution, so he led the team to rush back.

Before the sun set, the caravan finally arrived at the inn and settled down. As a distinguished guest, Yan Saburo got a separate room.

Everyone rushed to the mountain road for more than ten hours, and it was not smooth to reach the destination, and they had to turn back, and they were exhausted by this time, and the guys fell asleep after dinner.

Yan Saburo washed his face and locked the door, and then opened the lid of the bookcase: "What?" Just when he approached the county soldiers, he placed a ghost-faced nest spider on the other party, and asked Chitose to hide in the bookbox and eavesdrop on the situation.

The white cat jumped out: "You're really unlucky. first encountered a torrential rain and flash flood that is rare in a century, and then encountered a conflict between the government and the people that is rare in a century. ”

"Conflict between officers and soldiers?" Yan Saburo frowned, this word is not often heard.

According to the fragments that leaked out of their chats, the county sent people here to do business, but they were stopped by the villagers of Hongmo Village, and the two sides clashed, each was injured, and it seemed that the county soldiers suffered a big loss. When the news came back, the county commander was furious and ordered the village to be besieged. The white cat yawned, "On the cusp of the limelight, here we come." ”

"What caused the conflict?"

"These county soldiers didn't say anything explicitly, but I heard them mention the daughter-in-law of the county magistrate, and it is said that she died in the flower god pond. The white cat stood by the window and looked out at the hills to the west. The sun was about to set, and the afterglow was gentle, coating her soft white hair with a gentle golden red, like the luster of a needle flower.

Only then did Yan Saburo realize that there was a flower on the table, which was golden and could be comparable to the sunlight at this time.

He picked it up and sniffed it twice, well, there was no aroma. Chitose's voice came from his ears: "Some people say that this flower is very pure, just show people with beauty, and don't need to use other means." ”

"Who said that?"

The cat didn't look back, only the tip of its hanging tail gently patted the windowsill.

Yan Saburo waited for a while, but he didn't wait for her next word, thinking that she didn't plan to answer.

The moment the sun set, Chitose said softly: "Empress Yasukuni." ”

This name, Yan Saburo is still very impressive. The hugely successful play "Broken Red Face" tells the story of the last journey of the Yasukuni Empress's life; later, he went to school in Lian Rongsheng School, and his master was very strict with his homework, and these historical stories are now a compulsory subject.

So he knew that he was also a brilliant character, but unfortunately his ambition was difficult to reward.

"The Empress of Yasukuni likes needle flowers?"

The cat meowed off the windowsill and rubbed it twice on Yan Saburo's trouser leg. He glanced down and knew that the white cat who loved to stammered with his master was already performing in his true colors.

He touched the cat's head, and heard the woman in red leaning against the window hum: "She likes it very much." Therefore, the Yasukuni Imperial Palace is planted everywhere, and the golden needle flower is a specially cultivated variant, which will not be found anywhere else except in the palace. ”

"There won't be anywhere else?" Yan Saburo looked at the golden flower in his hand, "What about this one?" This golden flower was picked by Chitose from the Red Mill Valley, and this flower will fade when it loses its vitality. If there won't be anywhere else, where does the golden flower of the Red Mill Valley come from?

"Who knows?" said Chitose, "perhaps after that, the golden needle flower will also flow into the people." ”

As the sun sets, the light dims. She leaned against the window, her side face outlined with a lonely and cold line. Yan Saburo looked at her, and finally couldn't help but ask the question: "Is she the previous owner of the wooden bell?"

The time of the death of the Empress Yasukuni seems to be about the same as the time when Chitose was sealed? If the last owner of the bell that Chitose followed was the Empress Yasukuni, it is no wonder that she looks down on the beggars of Yicheng.

Chitose leaned still, her eyes rolling: "Guess?"

Yan Saburo said honestly: "I don't know." ”

The corners of Chitose's mouth hooked an arc: "Guess carefully." ”

Yan Saburo didn't guess, changed his clothes, opened the door and walked out.

"Where?"

"Eat. "Since he returned to the inn, Shuimi has not yet beaten his teeth.

This kid, angry?Chitose stroked his chin and followed with a smile.

￥￥￥￥￥

Tsubazaburo's abnormality didn't last long, or rather, he didn't show any anger at all, no matter how Chitose teased him.

It's boring, she thought, how could there be a man who hadn't really lost his temper for more than two years, especially at his age.
