Master of Fist

"From what you've said, you should be literate, right? Why don't you find a way to help people write letters?"

His voice suddenly interjected, and the two siblings immediately raised their heads to look at him.

"We don't sell ourselves!"

It was the elder sister who spoke, and she looked at Jiang Heng vigilantly, and stretched out her little hand to protect her younger brother behind her, as if protecting a calf.

"Someone is an official post, not a human trafficker!"

Jiang Heng said and pointed to his black clothes, then patted the badge on his waist and smiled wryly. This little guy obviously regarded him as a human trafficker.

"That's right! This poor man works at the Zhenfu Division, but he's a nobleman!" Naturally, the stall owner knew the origin of Jiang Heng's clothes, so he hurriedly chimed in.

Jiang Heng took a careful look at the elder sister. If it wasn't for the absence of Adam's apple and the slight bulge in the chest, he wouldn't even be sure that it was a girl.

"Do you need help? Maybe I can provide you with a job." He felt a little sympathetic to the two siblings. His family has a big business, and this is just two more pairs of bowls and chopsticks.

"Really!" The younger brother stood up and stared straight at him.

The elder sister also trembled beside her, apparently also very excited, just trying to suppress herself.

"Really." Jiang Heng nodded.

"What do you want us to do? We can read and do basic arithmetic." The younger brother said quickly, after thinking for a while, he pointed at his sister: "My older sister is also literate, and her cooking is delicious!"

"I just want to ask you a few questions. Don't worry, as long as you tell me the answer, then I will definitely arrange a job for you to eat!" Jiang Heng waved his hands and smiled warmly.

"what is the problem?"

My sister didn't agree directly but said cautiously.

Seeing this little girl's vigilance makes people feel distressed, and I feel a little touched in my heart.

"Don't worry, it's okay if you can't answer, I will let you eat your stomachs."

"Then... you can ask!" Seeing Jiang Heng's kind look, my sister also relaxed a little, and since it was on the street, she didn't refuse.

Jiang Heng nodded, looked at the two of them, and said, "Are you two from the north?"

"Ok!"

Both little guys nodded.

"Yunzhou?" Jiang Heng asked again.

The two still nodded, but their little heads looked a little sad.

"Have you ever seen people from the plateau?"

Jiang Heng pondered for a moment before asking aloud.

Since these two people came from Yunzhou, they wanted to know something about the situation there.

He wanted to verify the guesses in his mind so that he could prepare in advance.

But the two little things paled in fright and shook their heads, as if recalling something terrible.

"No... I haven't seen it. Dad said that everyone who has seen it is dead!"

The little girl hugged her trembling little brother tightly in her arms.

"Okay! Let's not mention this question for now, then I want to ask, how is the situation in Yunzhou? I mean how is the battle between the frontier army and the plateau people?"

Jiang Heng seemed very patient, maintaining a gentle smile, and his tone was very gentle.

"I don't know! We don't know!" The little girl shook her head again, "It's just that I heard a few words from people who fled all the way.

It seems to say that more than two months ago, the Zhenbei Army suffered a big defeat in the frontier. General Zhenbei died in battle, with more than 60,000 losses. Even lost the frontier fortress, lost dozens of cities! Now it has retreated to the hinterland of Yunzhou. "

The little girl looked about eleven or twelve years old, but actually she seemed very calm, and she spoke clearly without much stuttering.

But Jiang Heng frowned slightly when he heard this.

"The plateau people rushed into the hinterland of Yunzhou so suddenly, but your siblings have never seen the plateau people? Then why did you flee?"

The defeat on the front line was so sudden that it was impossible to relocate the people in advance.

The little girl's eyes were a little red, and she suppressed her tears and said in a crying voice: "My home is the Yunhai Prefecture in the hinterland of Yunzhou. When the Zhenbei Army retreated to Yunhai City, they forcibly ordered the people in the city to abandon their homes! My father starved to death. On the road of inescapability."

Hearing that Jiang Heng was slightly silent, the clues he got from the little girl were really limited.

But at present, it seems that the imperial court is indeed concealing some things in the frontier.

It seems that these Zhenbei troops drove out the people in the city for the sake of the people.

After all, if young and strong were to be forced to defend the city, there was no need to let the fathers of these two little guys out of the city.

Similarly, the poorest people in the city can carry the defense equipment, and there is no need to drive and order them all to move south.

"The Zhenbei army retreated to the sea of ​​clouds, didn't you see the people who fled from the disaster?"

Jiang Heng said with some doubts.

"No!"

The little girl shook her head again, and said a little confused: "At that time, only the Zhenbei Army retreated to Yunhai City, and the rest were gone."

"Not a single refugee?" Jiang Heng asked unwillingly.

"No! I didn't see it, only the Zhenbei Army in armor."

Hearing this, Jiang Heng's expression became a little tense.

More than a dozen cities have fallen, and among them, the defeat of the Beibei Army will definitely send back some news. But none of the people fled.

What is the situation?

Could it be that the so-called plateau people marched so fast that they didn't give the people in more than ten cities any time to escape?

But this is not the era of nuclear weapons, the kind where a nuclear bomb goes down to wash the ground, and there is no way to escape.

Fuck! What is the court hiding?

This plateau man is by no means as simple as that kind of barbarian.

Because according to the news spread by the imperial court, the plateau people are just barbarians on the grasslands, and they often invade Dayan only because of the power of war horses.

But this mere barbarian can make Dayan so devastated?

The imperial court established a powerful Zhenfu Division just to solve the ban on crimes committed by military force.

There is no reason why there will not be a stronger force among the frontier troops!

But this is still beaten by the plateau people.

Jiang Heng knew his own strength, and reckoned that if he was in the army, with his terrifying physique, he would be worthy if he was only an elite with less than a thousand people.

But this is not the pulse refining state, let alone the master state!

That terrible conjecture swept through my mind again!

"Don't be a copy of the Great Wall in another world!"

Jiang Heng thought back to a movie he had seen in his previous life, and sighed slightly in his heart.

He touched the heads of the two little guys, and said with a gentle smile: "You have helped me a lot! In this case, I will not break my promise. This is a piece of silver. You should pay attention to it for one night. Tomorrow, go to Chengdongjiang Mansion to find me. Yes. I'll give you guys who can eat hot food and not starve or freeze."

As he spoke, Jiang Heng put an ingot of silver in the little girl's hand, smiled and got up, walking away with heavy steps, somewhat absent-minded.

Looking at the tall figure gradually going away, the two looked at each other in a daze.

"Sister, we don't have to go hungry (???????)." The younger brother showed a pleasant expression on his face.

The little girl just nodded silently.

"It's just... sister, why don't you tell this uncle the truth? And this uncle is still an official!"

"It's not necessary, it's useless to say it. Have you forgotten what happened before? No one will believe you if you say it, and they will say we are crazy!" The little girl shook her head helplessly.

Only then did the younger brother remember some unpleasant things that happened before. At that time, he was almost considered to be bewitching the public and was beaten to death in public.
