The city wall was low, and dozens of ragged beggars squatted on the side, and when they saw someone coming, they knelt down and kowtowed, begging for a little alms, but instead provoked a bad temper and kicked them away.

The gates were wide open, even half broken, and unguarded, and several rows of sharpened wooden rafts were piled aside, with faint black blood stains on them, apparently that something had happened.

Yi Fan was covered in dust, avoiding the beggars who came up to pray, and walked into Guobei County, he saw the previously prosperous market, extremely dilapidated, and the shops on both sides of the street were mostly closed, even if the door was open, four or five strong men with bare arms were arranged outside, each holding a sword, with a fierce face.

There were a lot of pedestrians on the road, most of them men, with open chests and exposed arms, even if they were thin, they also had a sharp knife pinned to their waists, and they looked at people as if they didn't know that they were bad people, all with thorns.

Occasionally, those who are dressed plainly also leave in a hurry with their heads down, not daring to stay.

As for the two sides of the street, there used to be so many stalls, but there were not a single one, but there were many beggars lying on the side of the road, and some of them were obviously dead, and the stench was smelly, and no one cared about them.

Suddenly, there was a noise in the back, and then people turned on their backs, and five or six men with swords went on a rampage: "The person in front of you stops, and it's you, the Taoist priest with thief eyebrows and rat eyes." ”

Yi Fan was stunned for a moment, stopped, was surrounded in the blink of an eye, and the man led by him carefully looked at the bulging burden behind the disgusting ghost, and suddenly escaped from his arms A picture album, flipped through it casually and then closed it: "This person is a fugitive, arrest me." ”

"Wait, are the laymen mistaken?"

Yi Fan wondered, how did he become a fugitive after a long absence of more than a year?

The man laughed: "You just came from outside, right?"

"Yes, Poor Dao has just returned from the field, and he has only arrived today, and he is looking for a place to rest. ”

"That's right, you're the one who caught you. ”

Yi Fan's face fell, knowing that he was here to find fault, and said coldly: "Poor Dao has never done anything to commit adultery and break the law, a few laymen must have made a mistake, and a few of them don't look like yacha, what qualifications do you have to arrest people?"

"The front of the yamen is full of portraits of fugitives, and anyone can catch them, and as long as they catch them, there is a bounty. ”

The man slowly pulled out his knife and said, "Besides, if I say it's you, it's you, don't talk nonsense, follow me back to the yamen, and if you dare to resist, I'll kill you." ”

Yi Fan chopped his footsteps, and the stone bricks on the ground suddenly cracked, and asked, "You can see it more clearly, is it me?"

The faces of several people changed, and the man led by the man had straight eyes, and hurriedly took out the album: "I read it wrong, I read it wrong." After speaking, he beckoned: "Pierce your hands, find the next fat sheep." ”

After saying that, they all ran away.

Yi Fan laughed, shook his head, saw that the people around him avoided him, and did not stay longer, walked straight forward, and saw an inn in a moment, so he walked in.

A junior came forward and asked, "Is the guest officer sharpening or staying in the hotel?"

"For dinner, you prepare a few special dishes and a pot of good wine. ”

"Okay, wait a minute. ”

Yi Fan sat down, and saw six or seven people in the room, each looking at him with strange eyes, and he didn't care, and after waiting for a while, he saw Xiao Er coming over with a tray, a few small dishes of rotten vegetable leaves and a pot of wine inside.

"Objective, your dish is here, please use it slowly. ”

"Wait, you eat this food for people? And this wine, it's clearly stinky water. ”

Yi Fan picked up the wine jug, sniffed it, put it down heavily, and stopped Xiao Er, who was leaving.

Xiao Erpi smiled and said: "What, objectively dissatisfied? It's okay, you can change it, as long as you pay for this wine and food first, everything else is easy to say, not much, just ten taels of silver." ”

"It turned out to be a black shop, these things in the stinky gutter, how dare you ask for ten taels of silver?"

Yi Fan stood up, knowing that if he encountered a black shop, he would definitely not be able to eat, and maybe he would have to fight.

Xiao Er glanced back at the shopkeeper behind the counter, immediately clapped his hands, pointed to a small wooden sign next to him and said: "Yes, it's ten taels of silver, objective to good eyesight, knowing that we are a black store." ”

After saying that, five or six people over there, each of them stood up, and their swords came out together, and they surrounded them.

Yi Fan glanced at the wooden sign, and sure enough, the word 'black shop' was written on it, and he couldn't help but be speechless, it was the first time he had seen such a blatant store, and he only blamed himself for his bad eyes.

Suddenly, more than a dozen men walked in from the outside, saw the situation inside, and their bodies were stunned, and then the leader was surprised: "Is it you?"

Yi Fan saw that it was actually the few men he met on the street just now, and he touched his nose, it was really a narrow road.

The man laughed and said to the person next to him: "Big brother, what I just said is this person, who has a bulging baggage, must have a lot of silver, and is a big fat sheep." ”

After speaking, he waved his hand: "There are many of us, hack him to death." ”

Yi Fan shook his head, kicked the table, then grabbed the disgusting ghost, slammed open the window, jumped to the roof of the house, and disappeared at the other end.

"Follow me, and then send someone to call some brothers over, I don't believe that he can still fly. ”

As soon as the man shouted, he wanted to chase after him.

"I drove away my guests and still want to leave, so where is the face of my second Li gone? Brothers, copy guys. The innkeeper took out a knife from behind him, slapped the table and turned it over, and the two groups immediately fought together.

......

I didn't expect Guobei County to be in such a mess, I really couldn't understand it, Yi Fan fell into an alley, let go of the disgusted ghosts, and then found a path and walked forward.

He was going to stay at Chen's house, but he hadn't seen him for more than a year, and he didn't know how the Chen's family was now.

Half an hour later, Yi Fan stood in front of a dilapidated mansion with the dusty door plaque on it that read 'Chen Mansion', indicating that he had not found the wrong place.

Unexpectedly, the Chen family also fell into such a defeat.

Pushed open the door and walked in, and saw that there was a mess inside, obviously experienced some chaos, and found a few places where no one was, so I didn't look for it anymore, and planned to stay here for one night tonight, and return to the mountain tomorrow.

'Bang'

There was a noise in a room, Yi Fan's figure moved, he came to the front of the room, and when he opened the door, he saw a large and a small huddled in the corner, bowing their heads and not daring to look at him.

"Who are you?" Yi Fan wondered.

The big and the small trembled, and the adults hugged the children, knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing: "Don't kill us, please let us go." ”

After saying that, he quickly unbuttoned his clothes, revealing a shriveled body, and then lay on the ground without moving.

Yi Fan was stunned for a moment, and quickly turned around: "This female layman, please don't get me wrong, Poor Dao is just staying here, and he has no intention." ”

After a while, seeing that there was no movement behind him, he looked with his eyes, and saw that the woman had closed her eyes and was not moving, so he shook his head, walked over, and covered her with clothes.

I saw the child next to him, not very old, only two or three years old, with a dirty face, a pair of big eyes looking at him in horror, and his little hands grabbed the corners of his clothes.

Yi Fan sighed, stood up and walked out.
