Shu Blossoms

Chapter 145 Mysterious Village
When they saw Tong'er, they put down their guarded expressions and hugged him with a smile.

Luo Yan led them inside, and another woman came out to welcome them.

"Sister-in-law!" Luo Yan leaned over and saluted slightly, the woman took the package from him with a smile, and said with a smile: "Wang Langjun is back, who are these?"

Luo Yan looked back at them, and asked with a smile: "These two are my friends, aren't they?"

Zheng Wei nodded repeatedly, and bowed to the woman: "Auntie, Doctor Luo is my benefactor, he cured my illness."

Zhao Mingzhi also cupped his fists at the woman.

The woman suddenly smiled, and said politely: "It turns out that it is Lang Jun's friend, come in quickly, the room is warm! This is the first time Lang Jun brought a friend back!"

The woman stepped aside to meet them, and when she entered the village, she found that there was only a row of thatched houses.A few small heads stick out from the door of each thatched cottage.

The woman led them into the largest room, and Zheng Wei was really surprised, there were dozens of children, big and small, sitting in this room.

If there are so many children in every house, then there are probably hundreds of children living here.

They look similar to Xianbei people, but they don't know their identities. After all, they are hiding in such a secret place, and their identities may not be revealed.

No wonder Luo Yan is so greedy for money, so he has to support so many people.

Zheng Wei's heart turned a thousand times, meeting the small eyes, smiling at them kindly, and then looked at the furnishings in the house.

There are no furnishings, except for a path in the middle that can only be passed by one person, and rows of wooden beds on both sides, and a thin quilt on the bed, there is no other superfluous things.

Zheng Wei followed behind the master, followed Luo Yan into the slightly smaller back room.

This room is very clean. Although there is only one bed board and one quilt, it can be seen that there is only one person living in it. Obviously this is Luo Yan's room here.

Luo Yan smiled and asked them to sit down, "The humble house is simple, don't be disgusted!"

Then he looked at Chen Xin again, "If you don't mind, let the children watch him, he will never run away!"

Zheng Wei and Zhao Mingzhi were noncommittal, Luo Yan took them as acquiesced, and shouted outside: "Xiao Liu!"

A boy who was about the same age as Brother Zheng Wei walked in.

"Take him down to watch, don't let him run away!"

Xiao Liu saluted respectfully, came over and dragged Chen Xin out.

From the back room, Zheng Wei could see that Chen Xin was helplessly surrounded by a group of children, indeed unless he could kill all the children at the same time, he would have no hope of escaping.

Obviously this is impossible.

"Mr. Zhao, can we be honest now?"

Luo Yan looked at Zhao Mingzhi and Zheng Wei straight to the point.

Zhao Mingzhi replied with a smile: "As long as Miracle Doctor Luo is sincere, we will naturally not let you down."

The three were relatively silent for a while, they were looking for a way to convince each other.

It was Zheng Wei who said: "Otherwise we each ask a question we want to know? If we can answer, we can answer, if we can't answer, we can't lie!"

Zhao Mingzhi and Luo Yan looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

Zheng Wei asked Luo Yan first without hesitation: "Who are these children?"

Luo Yan smiled bitterly, "You really know how to ask!"

Zheng Wei sneered, "If you're in trouble, you don't have to answer!"

"You can't go around." Luo Yan took a deep breath, and said solemnly: "They are my people, and I have the people of the Luo family."

Rouran has Rockwell!
Zheng Wei and Zhao Mingzhi were shocked, You Luo family is a royal family of Rouran.

Last year, Emperor Wei conquered Rouran in the north, and the royal branch of the Rouran royal family was slaughtered. Only the branch of the clan fled to the north, so which branch is Luoyan?

Zheng Wei suppressed her thoughts and asked Zhao Mingzhi, "Master, what's your name?"

Zhao Mingzhi understood Zheng Wei's careful thoughts when he heard the words, and replied with a smile: "My surname is Zhao Mingzhi, and my style name is Mingzhi. I was born in Jingzhou."

Seeing this, Luo Yan stared and said: "Little girl, don't play tricks!"

Zheng Wei said innocently: "I have known Master for more than a month, and indeed I don't know much about Master. It is rare to have such an opportunity, so I should learn more about it."

Knowing that this little girl was plotting against him again, Luo Yan immediately became angry, and hummed in his heart: "Stinky girl, you have a good plan, and I have a wall ladder."

In this way, the three of them started a seemingly heart-to-heart understanding in the house.

According to this, in Yanzhou thousands of miles away, after the Great Zhou army finally withdrew from Han Daoyuan, Xiao Chengyan and Xiao Yucheng finally found the opportunity to retreat to Xuzhou.

Xiao Yucheng led five thousand soldiers to guard Cao County to cover Xiao Chengyan's army retreating south. Inspired by his father's plan to empty the city, he took advantage of General Wei's suspicious character and forbade the people to light fires and cook during the day and light lamps at night. It was an empty city, but they were scared by the people of Dazhou. These Han people in Dazhou were really scheming, and they didn't dare to act rashly for a while.

After another day of stalemate, when the sun rose in the morning, he sent a team of cavalry into the city to investigate.

The cavalry walked to the city gate, and a few people pushed hard, and the city gate was easily pushed open, but the clever Wei Jun saw a strange light shooting out of the rooms of the people near the city.

He hurriedly signaled to the people beside him, they looked around and saw strange lights from other rooms, "This is clearly the light of the sword!"

The cavalry quickly judged that there must be an unknown number of cavalry hidden in these houses in the city, and he really set up an ambush to surprise us.

The cavalry rushed back to report. After discussing with the generals, General Wei decided to withdraw his troops decisively.

Xiao Yu repelled the Wei army without bloodshed, and all the soldiers in the army admired him very much. The father and son of Xiao's family were really famous in the army.

When he retreated with his army, he was blocked by a group of down-and-out refugees.

"Are you my Da Zhou's army?"

One of the refugees knelt in front of him and shouted: "A lord entrusted me to deliver a letter to Jiankang, but we were robbed by the Wei army. We may not be able to fulfill the promise. I beg the general to forward it!"

Xiao Yucheng heard that this person's words were not ordinary people, but rather someone who had read books, although this move was treacherous and risky, it didn't bother him, so he stopped the soldiers from driving him away.

These people were the caravan that was unfortunately robbed by He Lianbo.

Unexpectedly, they didn't eat, and the horses went all the way to Yanzhou.

"Where is the letter, and to whom?"

Xiao Yucheng was riding on the horse, looking down at him, and asked in a cold voice.

"Here is the letter." The man carefully took out the letter from the padded robe and handed it to Xiao Yucheng, "The lord entrusted Cao Min to send it to Zheng's Mansion in Jiankang City."

"Which Zheng residence?"

As soon as Xiao Yucheng heard that Zheng Fu thought of a certain girl he knew, he continued to ask.

"The eldest princess's husband's house!"

Xiao Yucheng was a little surprised, it was really the eldest princess's house, could it be that girl's business again?
Thinking this way in his heart, he looked at the letter in his hand, and said to his opponent for a moment: "Find some horses for them."

"Whether you can follow me back to Beijing depends on your abilities!"

After Xiao Yucheng finished speaking, he drove away on his horse. The merchants were overjoyed when they heard the words, and quickly climbed onto the horse and chased after the army.
