Rebirth of Weak Daughter of the General’s Family

In order to be unobtrusive, Shen Wen asked Zhang Yunzheng to choose a path away from the big cities and towns, with only hillside plains along the way. The season entered winter, coupled with years of drought, the trees withered and the grass wilted, and the scenery was normal.

After walking for more than half a month, they have long been far away from the bustling market and deep into the countryside. Judging from the dryness of the fields, they entered the disaster area. In order not to run into groups of refugees and small groups of bandits, they changed to come out at night. The people Zhang Yunzheng led were all sergeants, and the ordinary robbers were beaten away as soon as they fought. No matter how poor their outfits were, no one pestered them to make trouble. They were still able to maintain their marching speed.

That evening, they left the camping depression, took a field road, and walked for a while, they heard someone shouting not far away: "Help! Hit people!"

Zhang Yunzheng, who took the lead, strangled the mule, and the others stopped as well. The four princes Shi Helin in the car lifted the curtain and looked out. In the twilight, I saw more than a dozen people chasing three people running here. The three people had shaved heads. Only when they ran up did they notice that one person was still wearing an official uniform with an official hat in his hand, and the other two were dressed as a servant. . The men who chased them were menacing with clubs in their hands.

The man in the official uniform was in his thirties, thin and short, ran up to Zhang Yunzheng's mule and panted and waved, "You guys go, don't worry about your business!" Then he took two bureaucrats to continue running.

Ji Wenzhao, who was riding on a mule, saw this and said, "You are in an official uniform. You should be the prefect of this county. Why have you been chased down here?"

The man hurriedly said: "Those are rich slaves, you don't want to provoke them! Hurry up!" Then he fled.

While they were talking, the dozen or so people wielding sticks came to the front of the convoy, and one of them raised a stick at Zhang Yunzheng's mule and shouted, "Don't get in the way! Get out of the way!"

Zhang Yunzheng was naturally the kind of savage man who stood up at one point. He stood up from the stirrup and cursed, "Bold!" The heavy riding whip made of his cowhide and copper wire was originally used as a weapon. It hit the man's shoulder with a click. Duan Zeng who was riding behind said, "Oh! The bones are broken!"

The man yelled, the club fell to the ground, and the man was lying on the ground with his shoulders under his shoulders. The others turned their faces to see the situation, and stopped chasing the escaped magistrate, and came together to besiege.

Zhang Yunzheng didn't lay down the mule. He held the reins in one hand and led the mule to move in small steps. He quickly waved the whip in the other hand and one whip in the other, hitting people with their heads, faces, arms and hands wailing, a hundred times more vicious than Shen Xiang before.

Not long after, more than a dozen people helped each other back, and several people shouted: "You wait!" "Your kid is looking for death!"...

Zhang Yunzheng replied: "You dare to come again and don't want to live anymore!"

Shi Helin got out of the car in a hurry and shouted: "Harmony is expensive, and harmony is expensive! If you pay the money, I can show you the hurt..."

Those people ran away, and Duan Zeng said afterwards: "Actually, you didn't hit the acupuncture points. If you use the whip more accurately, you can get twice the result with half the effort."

Zhang Yunzheng said honestly: "Who cares about acupuncture points in a hurry"

Duan Zeng pointed to a point on the outside of his wrist: "If you hit here, it will be better than..." He pointed to the upper end of his forearm, "...It's better here, almost without much force, that hand can't be lifted..."

Shi Helin said anxiously: "How can you teach him that he can't get enemies on the road!"

Duan Zeng stared at Shi Helin: "Did you hear those people say that they will come back? Only a few people here can fight without telling him some tricks, he can't fight, you go up and help!"

The fourth prince got out of the car, stretched his waist, and said: "Everything has the right to follow the law. According to the law, I encountered robbery..."

The county magistrate who ran away came back out of breath, was standing next to the fourth prince, pointing to Zhang Yunzheng and said: "You have caused... a catastrophe... hurry... leave here!"

Ji Wenzhao rode on the mule and looked at him and shook his head: "You are also an order from a county, how come you have gotten to this point! Even the official ceremonies are gone!"

The man let out a long sigh and gasped and said, "You are outsiders. You know what the royal family's territory is. Their fields are thousands of miles away. His family and Lu family are married, and the Lu family official is in charge. Who can contend."

The fourth prince asked: "Then what are you doing?"

The man said: "I asked them to give food, but they refused, so I will measure the land! The court has ordered that taxes are levied based on the size of the land. Many big clans conceal the land, and the royal family does the same. I ascertain the true amount and let them Paying taxes per mu cannot make them comfortable!"

After hearing this, Ji Wenzhao saluted the mule and said, "I blamed the county magistrate. In the next season...Ji Sheng, passing by here, may I ask which county this is?"

The county magistrate was also busy returning the gift, saying: "This is Tuan County, Yunzhou, and the surname Lv will not abandon it."

Ji Wenzhao was taken aback: "You are a member of the Lu family!" The Lu family was supported by the prince.

Lu Zhixian nodded: "It is the last branch of the Lu family, otherwise they wouldn't let me be the magistrate."

The four princes are a little unbelievable: "Then... why do you want to track down the number of Wang's fields"

Lu Zhixian said in a serious tone: "This young man looks like a scholar, how can I forget that I am a man even though I came from the Lu family, but I am the imperial official, the country is greater than my family, and I have the imperial salary-although there is not much, but I must What's more, Wang’s land here occupies a large portion of the land. If the amount is not ascertained, a large amount of tax has not been paid, but it is now during the famine year. If the distribution of taxes and food is unfair, it can cause civil rebellion!"

Ji Wenzhao frowned: "The Wangs can let you go"

Lu Zhixian waved his hand and said: "They dare not kill me, they just beat me a few times. It's okay, I have been running faster and faster in recent years, and they generally can't catch up..."

A servant next to him complained: "My lord, I caught up ten years ago. I beat my lord to beg for mercy!"

Lu Zhixian blushed a little and rebuked, "That was just changing! Understand it! We begged for mercy at that time, but now we have to measure again, and today we have measured nearly a hundred acres again. I am still the one who won!"

The yaman squatted on the ground: "My lord, it's useless to measure it. Report the numbers and the above will also be changed. You are asking for trouble."

Lu Zhixian scolded: "Guys who have no knowledge! The above changes are the above mistakes. I did what I should do, and I will feel at ease in the future! Worthy of my years as an official here."

The Ya Ya hummed: "You have been here for five years, and you haven't seen Nao Wo. As long as you are so tossing, the Wang family has spoken out, and the Lu family has said that you should be demoted soon!"

Lv Zhixian waved his hand and said, "You will be degraded! Anyway, I have tossed enough."

The fourth prince felt wrong and asked: "You are acting against the Lu clan in the name of your country, and you will also be regarded as betraying your ancestors. If you are demoted back to your hometown, you will not have a good life!"

There was a moment of silence in Luzhi County. Seeing the concerned eyes of the four princes, he was suddenly moved and said: "This prince is really not a secret. It is just a big reason for the country. I can’t get along with the Lu family because my family is in the clan. I was bullied, my parents died prematurely, and my land was taken away. I was adopted by my natal relatives, and I was taken. The Lu family asked me to come here to take care of the Wang family. How can I make them do what I want? If I get demoted, I won't go back to my hometown, anyway, I am alone, just going to the south, who wants to stay in this place!"

The servant said: "What about the money! My lord, where does your money come from?"

Lu Zhixian said: "I am a scholar and can teach! Literacy is good! I'll find a place with beautiful scenery and be a teacher. I have a lot of bundles, and I can marry a little lady! Far more than you can nest here. Be a government officer during the day and sell baskets at night!"

Ji Wenzhao saluted Lvzhixian again: "The magistrate is not so greedy for wealth, so I admire it."

Lu Zhixian waved his hand: "Don't be sour, run for your life! Those people are cruel, and you have to get into trouble and leave." He saw Zhang Yunzheng's disapproving expression, and said: "You must not be aggressive. Personally, there is no way to fight them. If they gather hundreds of people and kill you as bandits, the prefect of this state is a guest of the Wang family, how can you pursue the murderer if you die. I will tell you. , You hurry up along this road to the northeast, don’t stop! By the noon of tomorrow, you should be in the Hezhou area. The officials over there have just been promoted, no one is supervised, and it’s in chaos. The people of the Lu family dare not cross. I’m waiting here to see if I can stop them for a while, you guys go!"

Ji Wenzhao said to Lu Zhixian, "Thank you for your help."

Lu Zhixian hurriedly saluted and said to the fourth prince: "This prince looks weak and vulnerable. He will definitely be stunned with a stick. Go and go!" The fourth prince was convinced and hurried back into the mule cart.

Ji Wenzhao got on the mule, and Zhang Yunzheng yelled: "Go!" A group of people walked along the potholes in the road, and far away, you can see the thin figure of Luzhi County standing on the road.

After riding a few miles, Zhang Yunzheng looked back and saw several horses following them in the distance. He motioned to Ji Wenzhao to continue walking, slowly got off the mule, rode to the side of Shen Wen's car, and said, "Someone has followed us."

Shen Wen saw everything in the car from start to finish, and said: "We are a mule car. Although it is not so fast, it can last longer than walking. The magistrate is right. As long as we don't stop, the other party can't catch up and surround themselves. We. It’s getting dark now, and they won’t chase hard."

Zhang Yunzheng sullenly said: "Why don't you fight! We can win."

Shen Wen said: "This is a person related to the Lu family. It's a little thing. Maybe you can get to the capital. We can't fight now, just avoid it."

Zhang Yunzheng unhappily rode back to the front and walked side by side with Ji Wenzhao. Ji Wenzhao smiled and asked, "She said she can't fight."

Zhang Yunzheng twitched the corners of his mouth, and Duan Zeng rode up and said positively: "I have figured out a few more parts just now. I can tell you that if you fight, you can..."

There was a bowstring rang behind the conversation, and an arrow feather shot and inserted the last car, which was the mule car in which Shi Helin and the fourth prince were sitting.

Just as Zhang Yunzheng was about to strangle the mule back, Ji Wenzhao pulled his sleeves and said, "I can't go back! This is to hold us back, leave him alone, this arrow has reached the end of force and can't shoot anyone, let's continue walking!"

Zhang Yunzheng knew that Ji Wenzhao was right, so he shouted: "Hurry up!"

Since the first arrow was shot on the car, Shi Helin held his medical box and sat in the front of the car with the four princes, facing the rear of the car.

Outside the window, Ji Wenzhao said loudly: "Hurry up! They can't catch up." But even so, there was still a series of popping arrows from the roof.

Zhang Yunzheng rode outside Shen Wen's car again: "I brought a new crossbow, do you need it?"

Shen Wen replied: "No, just run faster."

Shi Helin heard it and yelled: "Why don't these arrows sound so loud!"

The fourth prince explained: "That must be prepared for the border, how can you shoot your own people"

Ji Wenzhao slowed down a bit and turned around and shouted: "You have this strength to not serve the country and fight against Bei Rong. You actually shot the people here and killed the unarmed refugees. What is your conscience! You are still not a man!"

After he finished a few words, the arrow behind him stopped, and Shi Helin in the car said with emotion: "No wonder people say that wise men can retreat with their tongues. Listen to what Ji Gongzi said, they won't shoot arrows."

The four princes nodded and said, "It's also their conscience is not cleared, otherwise it's useless..." Sure enough, "Bang Bang" was another arrow, Shi Helin shouted, "Run! We are the last one, not the grass." The boat borrows arrows!"

The fourth prince comforted: "This car is very sturdy. You can see that none of the arrows hit the car. We should be safe."

Shi Helin breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately said worriedly: "The herbs we tied to the roof of the car should be fine.

The fourth prince sighed: "Don't be too greedy."

Shi Helin mumbled to him very seriously: "You really don't know that Chai Mi is expensive. Those are medicinal materials that are not easy to find. Otherwise, the kid won't pick it. His eyes are very tricky..."

In the sound of the arrow hitting the car, listening to Shi Helin's complaint, the fourth prince actually laughed.

They walked until midday the next day, more than twenty miles past the state boundary, before stopping. People were trapped and animals were scarce, so I found a forest and set up a tent. They brought enough dry food, but when the water ran out, Zhang Yunzheng sent someone to buy water in a nearby village, and everyone sat on the cowl to eat the dry food.

The cold wind whizzed in, mixed with dust, and the dry bread was hard to swallow. Because Shen Wen usually meditates and does exercises, it doesn't matter if he eats more or less. He only bites the cake with the tips of his teeth, the bite is the size of sesame seeds.

The four princes didn't want to eat hard cakes, but they were so hungry that they could almost scratch their tongues by biting them into their mouths. They had to frown and grind them with their teeth repeatedly. Su Wanniang thought of the four princes growing up in the imperial palace, so she took out a candied fruit from Shen Wen's food box, wrapped it in a handkerchief, and handed it to him when she walked away from the four princes. The fourth prince opened the handkerchief, put the candied fruit in his mouth, and sighed deeply.

Zhang Yunzheng came to Shen Wen and whispered: "Little wine pig! I have a small jar of wine, do you drink it?"

Ji Wenzhao heard it and said loudly: "Hey! How can you be so partial! If you have wine, why don't you drink it out!"

Zhang Yunzheng frowned: "I didn't buy it for you!"

Ji Wenzhao laughed loudly: "I'm so embarrassed to say!"

Zhang Yunzheng looked at Shen Wen, Shen Wen smiled at him, and said coquettishly, "Thank you, give it to everyone, I dare not drink it."

Zhang Yunzheng unhappily took out a small jar from the luggage tied to the mule cart, and Duan Jiacheng sighed: "Such a small can is not enough for each person!"

Zhang Yunzheng stared: "If you don't think too much, don't drink it!"

Ji Wenzhao said hurriedly: "One bite is better than nothing! Hurry up and take out all the cups and bowls!"

Su Wanniang went to get the bamboo cup, and Ji Wenzhao distrustfully said to Zhang Yunzheng: "You give me the jar, you're a big deal, I'll do it!"

Zhang Yunzheng unhappily gave the jar to Ji Wenzhao. Ji Wenzhao carefully poured the wine into the cup and the bowl. A small jar of wine soon emptied. He asked people to pick it up. Every man, including Zhang Yunzheng's subordinates, got a glass. Shen Wen and Su Wanniang declined, Yan Shi But took a small bowl.

Ji Wenzhao said: "Let's do it!" Everyone drank the wine in one sip, and then there was a smacking sound.

The fourth prince felt that he had never drunk such a delicious wine in his life. It clearly tasted not good, too sweet, and had a sour taste, but for a thirsty throat and a cold body, this was a veritable agar.

Zhang Yunzheng finished drinking, took a breath, and whispered: "It's worth it! I'm mad at him!"

They waited for an hour, and the people who went to buy water came back with four or five cans of water, and said to Zhang Yunzheng: "There is a deep well in the village over there, and there is water. Water is very expensive. One can cost a dozen silver. There were several corpses on the road. It is said that they were killed in a fight in a neighboring village two days ago to grab water."

Zhang Yunzheng said: "Then let's grab some water."

Shen Wen shook his head and said: "Let's not cause trouble, we must leave as soon as possible."

Ji Wenzhao also sighed: "These are not things we can manage now."

Zhang Yunzheng fed a pot of water to the mules, and Shen Wen insisted that they boil another pot of water, and then give everyone no more than half a bowl. Everyone rested until sunset and set off again.

They walked in the middle of the night, even in the dark, they could see the exposed bodies on the road. They passed by a small village, it was pitch black, and there was no dog barking. Zhang Yunzheng asked everyone to rest and sent someone into the village to see if he could find some water. Those who came back said that the village was completely empty, and the wells they found were all dry.

Zhang Yunzheng found Shen Wen and said, "We really have to find water, so we can't walk like this."

Ji Wenzhao also came over: "That's it!"

Zhang Yunzheng glared at him, thinking that he would interrupt everything.

Shen Wen frowned, trying to recall the terrain of this area. This was not the route she set out at the beginning. She had read the records of the disaster, but she hadn't experienced it personally and could not understand the real horror. At this time, she realized the danger, but she couldn't turn back the same way, so she could only try to find a relatively safe way.

Shen Wen said: "Keep walking towards the north. For almost a day's journey, there should be a Xiangcheng. According to the book, Xiangcheng has a spring water built under a seated Buddha. No matter what kind of drought, it will last for thousands of years. In addition, Then two hundred miles to the east, there is a lake with water from the Yellow River, and there should be water."

Ji Wenzhao immediately said: "Then we will go to Xiangcheng first!"

Zhang Yunzheng glared at him again: "Does this still have to be said by you!"

Ji Wenzhao was not beaten, and said with more authority: "If we go, we have to travel during the day, and we can't enter the city at night."

Zhang Yunzheng thought for a while and said, "It's too dangerous to walk during the day. Now there are refugees on the road. If we come to grab us, we can't escape."

Ji Wenzhao made a decision and said: "Our water won't last for too long, so we have to go there quickly."

Zhang Yunzheng agreed this time. They continued to walk at night. At dawn, they saw a large village from a distance. There were roadblocks and villagers guarding the village. Ji Wenzhao immediately said: "Avoid! Avoid! Don't get in!"

Zhang Yunzheng asked: "Someone is watching over there. There must be water. Maybe our people can buy water with a lot of money."

Ji Wenzhao resolutely shook his head: "No! You see there are roadblocks outside the village, they must have been impacted. They have weapons, they can't make it..." Before he finished, there was a shout in the distance, and Zhang Yunzheng hurriedly took it. The motorcade took refuge next to a withered forest. In the distance, the fields were dusty, and many people ran towards the village and fought with the people in the village...

Ji Wenzhao said: "They are going to grab water, let's continue walking." He signaled Zhang Yunzheng to go in the other direction.

Zhang Yunzheng turned his head to look, and said, "Don't help them."

Ji Wenzhao shook his head: "It can't help, we will get stuck in it if we don't manage it."

The four princes looked into the distance from the car window, Shi Helin said on the side: "It has been drought for more than three years, let alone crops, people have no water to eat, they can't grab water, and they can't live anymore."

Their team of chariot mules gradually moved away from the fight, but after walking for most of the day, they were also thirsty and drank all the precious water they brought.

The four princes of Ji Wenzhao and Zhang Yunzheng approached Zhang Yunzheng, and Zhang Yunzheng said: "Our water is gone. If we can't fix it, we have to grab water."

The fourth prince said with a dumb voice: "Still, don't grab it."

Zhang Yunzheng said: "Even if we can bear it, the animals cannot bear it. We need water."

Ji Wenzhao looked far, pointing in a direction and said: "There is a city, maybe it is Xiangcheng that Miss Shen Er said, let's go over there!"

Everyone nodded their heads, because there was no water and they were depressed, and silently drove the animals to go there.

A cloud of dust splashed under the hoof of the animal, and the land beside it was so dry that cracks in the palm of the hand were cracked. The trees have long since died, and even the bark has been stripped away.

Everyone’s lips were dry and the animals stopped neighing. They avoided the refugees, walked through the mounds of the fields, and finally approached the city.

Unlike their original assumptions, there were not a few refugees outside the city, and the city gates were empty.

Zhang Yunzheng led a group of people to the gate of the city. They wanted to load water, so they took their vehicles. There were no refugees around, although it was a bit weird, but it also made Zhang Yunzheng relax his vigilance.

When they arrived at the city gate, a few big men stood on both sides of the road with big swords, and signaled Zhang Yunzheng and the others to stop.

Shen Wen kept looking out of the car window and saw that there were no people on the road. He was suspicious. When the car slowed down, Shen Wen jumped off and walked to the front of the team.

They saw people guarding outside the village the day before yesterday. If there is a water source in this city, it is reasonable for the gatekeeper to take a big knife to protect it.

Ji Wenzhao bowed his hands in salute: "Everyone is polite, may I ask if this is Xiangcheng"

One of the big guys nodded and said, "Exactly."

Zhang Yunzheng asked: "Can we enter the city?"

Several big guys looked at each other and smiled, one of them said: "Come in..."

Ji Wenzhao was a little wary and said, "Be careful..." But Zhang Yunzheng was born bold, loosened the reins, and drove the mule to take the lead in the city gate. He was walking in front of several big guys, and one person shouted: "Come here!" The big guys suddenly raised their broadswords and slashed at Zhang Yunzheng from both sides of Zhang Yunzheng. With the shouts, a dozen strong men ran out of the city gate.

Zhang Yunzheng originally held the whip in his hand, paying attention to these people. They just raised their knives. Zhang Yunzheng raised the whip at the same time, and shouted: "Dare you!" The two who waved the whip to one side hit them. On his arms, the big knives in their hands flew away, but the big knives of the three people on the other side had arrived, and Zhang Yunzheng turned around on the saddle and drew back. Although he knocked one person away, the other two blades had already been slashed against him...

Shen Wen was walking to the front of the team. She reacted quickly, and she could see it with the sword. Suddenly, time seemed to slow down, and Shen Wen felt great fear-if Zhang Yunzheng died... Her consciousness suddenly exploded, and the people around only felt a tremor in the air, and the three big men beside Zhang Yunzheng were palpitated. , Backed a few steps in a row, somewhat inexplicable. Shen Wen hurriedly mobilized his consciousness, his heart was upset for a while, and he couldn't get up with anger, so he knelt on the ground all of a sudden.

Zhang Yunzheng drew his long sword from the saddle with a retreat, flew off the mule, and fought a few people with the sword. The people led by Zhang Yunzheng also rushed up, showed off their swords and spears, and clashed with the men who ran out of the city.

Yan Shi and Su Wanniang met from the car, got out of the car hurriedly, stepped forward in the chaos, and helped Shen Wen who was limp on the ground. Duan Zeng ran over, numbered the lower pulse, and said, "Enter! Let her rest!"

Several people hurriedly carried Shen Wen back to the carriage. Zhang Yunzheng and others gained the upper hand in the fight. Ji Wenzhao said: "Come in! Rush into the city!"

Zhang Yunzheng yelled, and led others into the city. The four princes Duan Zengshi and Lin both got out of the cart, helped lead the animals, drove the carriage, and followed Zhang Yunzheng into the city gate.

As soon as he entered the city, Zhang Yunzheng regretted it. Hundreds of people came in front of him, and Zhang Yunzheng turned around and shouted: "Take it, get out..."

Ji Wenzhao shouted: "Can't withdraw! We want water!"

Zhang Yunzheng was anxious: "Do you think they are here! We can't beat it! Let the carriage withdraw first!"

In the midst of the chaos, Shen Wen took Su Wanniang's hand and said intermittently: "Take...light..."

Su Wanniang's sharp voice sounded: "Master said, light it up!"

Zhang Yunzheng understood immediately and shouted: "Light a torch!"

Ji Wenzhao also knew what Shen Wen meant. He secretly said that Shen Wen was really poisonous, but at this time he had to do so, and he tried his best to shout: "Listen! As long as you dare to come up, we will burn the city!" He was right. The four princes Duan Zengshi and Lin said: "Ignite it!"

Duan Zeng scrambled to find the torch, Shi Helin pulled the reins of several horses, and Magnolia, who was fighting in front, turned her head and said, "There are under the car."

The four princes got into a car and saw that there were no gaps in the car board. He reached the edge of the car and found a hole. He lifted his finger and lifted it, turning over a small piece of wood, and then removed it from it. The wooden bolt opened a large car plate. A mezzanine was exposed below, and inside was something wrapped in oil paper. The fourth prince picked up a bag and tore open the oil paper, and was surprised to find that it was a brand new crossbow. Look at the mezzanine again, there is a long bag, which he tore open, it is a cluster of arrows. He took out an arrow, and then took the crossbow and arrow out of the carriage. Shi Helin shuddered and said: "You can't shoot, they all hit one place, they will accidentally injure their own people."

Seeing that the arrow was a little bit cold, the four princes knew that it was sharp and a weapon for murder. They arrived in other people's city, should these people die... For a while, he was a little at a loss and stood awkwardly with his hands.

The people rushing towards them heard Ji Wenzhao's shout and hesitated. Years of drought, the house has already dried out, if it encounters sparks, it must be a city-wide fire. Those people all live in this city. Many people have families. If the city burns, their homes will be gone, just like refugees.

Seeing them hesitate, Ji Wenzhao shouted: "We just want some water. If we want to be strong, we won't be soft!"

Everyone still blocked the road. Ji Wenzhao turned around and saw the fourth prince carrying him, shouting: "Tie the rocket and shoot an arrow first!"

The people in front began to separate: "Stop! Stop! My house is on the side of the road!" "They can't escape even if they burn the city!" "Don't! My father is sick in the house!"...

Zhang Yunzheng turned around and rode on a mule, and shouted: "Get out of the way! We burned the city and we could escape!"

He led the way into the crowd. People were afraid to act rashly because someone behind was on a torch, and they gradually backed away.

Shen Wen closed his eyes and tried his best to breathe smoothly, wanting to come quickly, and whispered: "In the northeast of the city, Guanyin Temple."

Su Wanniang shouted again: "Go to Guanyin Temple in the northeast of the city."

When the people outside heard it, they shouted again: "They are going to get the spring water, no!" "Don't let them pass!" Stopped them again.

Ji Wenzhao said: "That is the Buddhist spring water, originally for benefiting all living beings, how can you occupy it without it?"

The other party shouted: "Hey, what do we do if we run out of water, you robbers!"

Ji Wenzhao said: "That spring water has a reputation for thousands of years! Just give us some and it won't be exhausted. Besides, we can exchange it for food!"

A person on the other side laughed: "Come on! If you have food, you are in the car now, why would it not be better for us to give you water and grab your food!"

Zhang Yunzheng sneered and said, "It depends on what you can get and you can't get it!"

Ji Wenzhao said: "We run out of water! If we have no way to survive, we will burn all the jade and stone, and we will die with you!"

Yan whispered in the car: "I can't die, I have to go to the border, I can't die..."

The top of Shen Wen's head was like cold water pouring down, and finally calmed down. She still has too many things to do, and she can't die now.

The man shouted: "They are only a few! There are also livestock! The torch is not far away, let's go together!" People are about to rush over, and Zhang Yunzheng and others are about to fight again.

The fourth prince drew the upper string in his hand, shot it into the air, hushing away, and landed in a distant house. The people stopped again.

Ji Wenzhao sternly said: "Have you seen it! If the arrow was brought with a fire, your city is already on fire! This is a warning! If you come over again, we will start burning the city!"

Just as the man was about to say something, he suddenly coughed, and Zhang Yunzheng took the opportunity to kick the mule, smashed through the besieged crowd, and pushed forward.

In this way, amidst the loud threats from Ji Wenzhao, Zhang Yunzheng led people to the northeast.

They walked through a section of the street, the air smelled of stench and blood, and bones were piled on both sides of the road.

After watching for a long time, Ji Wenzhao suddenly lost his voice: "It's human hands, people cannibalize, you cannibals!"

People didn't answer in silence, they just surrounded them.

Zhang Yunzheng heard what Ji Wenzhao said, and he didn't dare to care anymore. He now understands why there are no people outside the city: this is a cannibal city.

Not only Zhang Yunzheng, but everyone else heard it. All of them have been energized, knowing that if one is not careful, they will become food.

They finally found Guanyin Temple.

The temple was full of people. Ji Wenzhao again tried his best to intimidate and lure. Zhang Yunzheng asked four or five people to light a torch with Duan Zeng and use the torch to keep people away. He led the convoy into the temple and found the spring pool.

The spring water really gushes from under a Guanyin statue, but there is no monk among the people around. Ji Wenzhao shouted: "Abbot! Abbot! We need to change some water..."

Someone said: "What to shout! I'm dead early!"

What else Ji Wenzhao wanted to say, Zhang Yunzheng said: "Don't worry about that! Quickly fill the water!" Everyone who didn't have a torch went to fetch water, and Su Wanniang and Yan Shi also got out of the car to help.

When all the water bags were filled, the pool was not dry.

A group of people withdrew from Guanyin Temple, Ji Wenzhao said: "All get in the car and get on the horse!"

Duan Zeng took a mule, and the fourth prince Shi Helin immediately returned to the car. Shi Helin whispered to the fourth prince: "I don't know if we can run out..."

Someone outside shouted: "You are robbers! What kind of guys are stealing our water?"

Zhang Yunzheng replied: "You are the robbers! There is water, why don't you share it with everyone, why do you want to kill?"

Another person shouted: "If you divide it, it's not enough! Don't kill or eat anything! You don't want us to eat people, so why don't you divide your livestock for us all!"

Zhang Yunzheng was speechless, looking at Ji Wenzhao, Ji Wenzhao closed his mouth.

The group rode to the city gate, this time Zhang Yunzheng rode at the end, Ji Wenzhao and Duan Zeng took the lead. They went out of the city, put out the torch, and followed the group of people rushing forward: "They can't burn the city! Take them down!" "They have food!" "Those animals!"...

Ji Wenzhao yelled: "Run!" But their mule cart was already loaded with goods, and it was filled with water bags just now. How can they run fast?

Zhang Yunzheng waved a long sword from behind to force the approaching people away, shouting: "Get the food out!"

A man knocked the car where the fourth prince and Shi Helin were sitting with a whip. Shi Helin hurriedly pulled out a grain bag from the car seat, and said to the fourth prince: "You have it too." The fourth prince bent over and fumbled, and he dragged it out. Shi Helin opened the curtain and handed the food bag to the person riding on the animal outside.

The people chasing them yelled, "Get the food! Don't let them run away!"

Ji Wenzhao shouted: "Open the grain bag and sprinkle it on the road!"

The person holding the bag slashed the grain bag open when it heard the sound, and the grain water flowed down the road. Some of the people who caught up bent over to pick up the grain and shouted: "Don't step on it! Don't step on it!" The crowd was in a mess. .

They rushed forward, and the mule cart rushed out from the chase of the crowd, mixed with dust in the sky. Zhang Yunzheng asked another two bags of grain to be sprinkled, and then the chasing crowd was far away. They looked back and saw that the place where the food had just been planted was already a battlefield. People were torn and kicking each other, mixed with the vague howling and crying.

It wasn't until those people were no longer visible that Ji Wenzhao, who was in the lead, slowed down and let the animals breathe slowly.

Zhang Yunzheng said to Ji Wenzhao with anger: "If you don't want to grab water, you still have to wait until the end is more dangerous than anything else! It's better to start at the beginning!"

Ji Wenzhao sighed and said, "Do you know what is meant by compulsion? You can't take this step until the end, otherwise you will lose morality..."

Shen Wen lay down, she was really scared now: She had obviously underestimated the sinister journey, and almost fell here today. If she dies, what will the border guard do to defend Beirong in the future is that she is not dead, Zhang Yunzheng, Yan Shi, Su Wanniang, the fourth prince, Duan Zeng, Shi Helin, and Zhang Yunzheng. Which of the people led by Zhang Yunzheng, it is not her responsibility to die. She thought of this Possibly, just bursts of cold sweat...

Ji Wenzhao didn't dare to stay for too long, fearing that those people would chase him, so he walked into darkness in one breath. The mule walked more and more slowly, and Zhang Yunzheng found a depression in the **** for people to stop. Ji Wenzhao beside him stiffened his legs and feet, and moved a few steps to sit on the ground.

Except for the sound of the wind, there was silence everywhere, all the trees had withered and withered, the animals had been eaten long ago, and there seemed to be no other creatures in the world except for the group of them.

Zhang Yunzheng saw Shen Wen kneeling on the ground, so he went to see Shen Wen after getting off the mule. He was surprised to find that Shen Wen was lying in the carriage, looking under the torch, his face turned gray and his expression bleak. Zhang Yunzheng smiled, and asked: "You are not scared, right?"
