Chen Shu heard the faint sound of human speech in this cry, as if an adult was coaxing a child. Ah Zhu was not afraid when he heard it, and he couldn't help but be a little shy.

The two came to the front and only heard a woman's voice say: "The dog is good, the dog doesn't cry, Daddy has gone to get food, and there will be delicious food when he comes back." ”

Chen Shu listened to this accent very kindly, but he was used to hearing it when he was with Xiao Zhonghui. He knew that this must be the family of the rebels, so he pulled Azhu over and said loudly: "Hello, excuse me, how about you to go down?"

The crying and talking stopped abruptly, and there was silence for a while, Chen Shu knew that they were frightened, and hurriedly said: "Don't be afraid, we are friends, and the person who sent things before was with us." ”

After a while, the woman was heard whispering, "You...... Are you really with the people who delivered the things?"

I heard a small firelight. Chen Shu saw that between the three triangular trees in the forest, a small grass hut was knotted with a rope, which looked extremely simple. Below was a woman in her thirties and forties, with a child of six or seven years old in her arms, both of whom were ragged and looked dish-faced. A stone stove was built out of a few stones in the corner of the shed, and a rusty iron basin was poured next to it, and nothing else.

Ah Zhu glanced at it twice, and couldn't help but feel sour. She is nominally Yahuan in the Murong family, but in fact, she is treated very preferentially, not only has her own residence, but also has the cook Yahuan's family to serve her, which can be said to be brocade clothes and jade food, no different from the eldest lady of ordinary people. She had never imagined that there were such suffering people in the world, and she couldn't help but be extremely shocked.

Chen Shu sighed secretly in his heart, stepped forward and said with a pleasant face: "Don't be afraid, we are here to help you." Yo, this little guy looks so clever. ”

He stepped forward and crouched down, laughing and teasing the child. Ah Zhu looked at the kid with a yellow face and thin muscles, and his eyes were dull, how could he talk about any cleverness. But then I saw that the woman's face showed some joy, and she was obviously less guarded, and said with some embarrassment: "Look at this place, there is no place to sit." ”

Chen Shu smiled: "It's good on the ground, it's convenient and comfortable." As he spoke, he sat down, beckoned to the child, and said with a smile: "Come, let my brother hug you, okay?"

The boy was afraid, looked at him a few times, and then fell into the woman's arms, and began to cry again. Chen Shu smiled: "Such a manly, still crying nose, aren't you afraid of ugliness?"

Azhu girl's house is clean and she doesn't want to sit on the ground, but standing is an eyesore, so she has to squat down. I only heard Chen Shu say a word, chatted with the woman, asked her why she lived in this forest, and asked about the living conditions of the rebels.

After a while, he had some idea in his heart, and as soon as the woman began to speak, she could not help complaining of bitterness, and her face was full of tears as she spoke. It turned out that there were four children in her family, three of whom died of famine and starvation a few years ago, and this year there was another war.

She cried while talking, and Ah Zhu also felt the same way, and couldn't help but have sour eyes, for fear that Chen Shu would see the joke and hurriedly twist his head to the side.

The woman cried for a while, wiped her eyes, and said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, let you nobles laugh." She saw that the young people were neatly dressed and gorgeous, and their appearance and temperament were not ordinary people at first glance, and she couldn't help but be happy and ashamed when she met a big person.

Chen Shu smiled and said, "Eldest sister, you're welcome, well, can you tell us where Leader Xiao is?"

The woman didn't know that the leader of the rebel army was Xiao Banhe, but she knew the way to get food. After Chen Shu asked for directions, he took out two pieces of silver from his arms, stuffed them into the woman's hand, and said in a low voice, "Eldest sister, we don't have anything to eat, I'm really embarrassed." ”

The woman was startled and hurriedly said, "This can't be ...... It's all ......."

Chen Shu had already pulled Ah Zhu a, and the two of them hurried out of the forest.

Walking along the path pointed out by the woman, Azhu was silent all the way. Chen Shu smiled and said, "What's wrong?

Azhu said in a low voice: "They are so pitiful, I didn't know there were such suffering people in the world before......"

Chen Shu said lightly: "I don't know how many people like them in this world. Sister Zhu, there are many poor people in the world, not to mention the invasion of the Hu people, who are brutal and unkind, and they don't treat the Han people as human beings at all. ”

Ah Zhu bit his lip and thought silently.

At this moment, there was a sudden light on the hillside in front of me, and a burst of torches lit up. Chen Shu looked up, and couldn't help but feel a wave of confusion.

I saw Xiao Zhonghui, who was full of joy, standing in the middle of the firelight, although he didn't come for a long time, his bright face had been reduced a lot, and it was obvious that he had suffered a lot these days. But that hearty and bright smile was still familiar, Chen Shu's heart was warm, and the heart that had been uneasy these days was suddenly calmed down.

The two looked at each other for a while, and Xiao Zhonghui jumped down from the distant hillside. Chen Shu hurriedly opened his arms to catch her, and both of them were infinitely happy in their hearts, quietly embracing each other, feeling the joy of reunion.

Ah Zhu was stunned by the side, she didn't expect that this Chen Gongzi would have such a beautiful girl in this righteous army. Several girls holding torches on the hillside also looked strange and exchanged glances.

Xiao Zhonghui whispered in Chen Shu's ear: "Stinky apprentice, there have always been beautiful girls around you." ”

Chen Shu was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "I haven't seen you for so long, and I will say this as soon as we meet......"

Xiao Zhonghui snorted and pouted: "I just like to say, if you are allowed to do it, you are not allowed to say it?"

Chen Shu sighed: "Yes, yes, I'll let you scold you enough another day, okay?" Huihui, I've been suffering from you these days, look at you have lost so much weight." ”

Xiao Zhonghui smiled: "What's the bitterness? Don't you know my character? Instead of staying at home and doing something in a proper manner, it's only happy to be able to do something like this." ”

Chen Shu looked at her bright and moving smiling face, his heart swelled with tenderness, and he hugged her tighter.

Ah Zhu looked at the side with a flushed face, and said in a low voice: "Hmm...... Brother Chen, I'm ...... I wanted to say, "I'm going first," ......, but I didn't know where to go.

Chen Shu hurriedly said, "Come, Master, let me introduce you." This is Ah Zhu girl, Ah Zhu sister, this is Xiao Zhonghui, Xiao Daxia's only daughter, strong martial arts, chivalrous. ”

Xiao Zhonghui snorted, pushed him away, stretched out his hand generously and pulled Ah Zhu over, and said with a smile: "Hello sister, don't listen to my stinky apprentice's nonsense." Hey, if you don't say that the stinky apprentice has a good eye, a few girls are really more beautiful than the other. ”

Ah Zhu's face turned red, and he hurriedly said: "Miss Xiao, don't get me wrong, I'm just a little girl, with Chen Da...... Chen Gongzi is nothing. "I was very strange in my heart, seeing them hugging and hugging, what kind of master and apprentice were they?

Xiao Zhonghui grinned and said, "I have nothing to do with this stinky boy, sister, let's go, ignore him." "Hold her by the arm and talk to her as you walk.

Chen Shu followed behind, and although Xiao Zhonghui was talking to Ah Zhu, the words were for him. It turned out that Jiang Hongying, Li Guangjiu and others carried food and weapons into the mountain, and they were soon discovered by the guards. After hearing about the situation, he hurriedly brought them in. When the two sides spoke, Xiao Zhonghui couldn't help but be surprised, happy and worried when they heard them talk about Chen Shu's name, and hurriedly brought someone to answer him, but he happened to meet him on the road.

Xiao Zhonghui said with a smile: "Some people still have a little conscience, and they know that they are here to help the master, hmph, if I don't come, I can only go to the underworld to teach the old man of Hades the mandarin duck knife technique!"

Chen Shu hurriedly said: "Bah, bah, where can anyone talk like this? ”

Xiao Zhonghui snorted, "I didn't tell you again." ”

After walking for a while, Chen Shu asked about the situation of the family in the forest, Xiao Zhonghui was silent for a while, and sighed: "Ah Shu, we are really miserable, very miserable, so, thank you very much for sending so many things." Otherwise, people will really starve to death. ”

Chen Shu saw a hint of worry on her originally beaming smile, and hurriedly said, "Silly girl, don't worry, didn't I come?" Don't worry, it's okay." ”
