Shu Blossoms

Chapter 7 Attacked
"Xiao Langjun is here this time, is there anything else?" Steward Zheng sat cross-legged on the couch and then asked.

Liao Wennan also saw Steward Zheng's expression. Although he couldn't guess what he was thinking, he could feel his enthusiasm.

With Liao Wennan's years of experience in hooking, the more complex and shrewd people are, the more they like pure and honest people.

Liao Wennan was fortunate to be straight to the point: "My brother joined the army in Qingzhou, and I heard that he has been promoted to a thousand commander. The younger generation wanted to rely on his brother, but he did not expect that the world was dangerous and almost lost his life. I heard that the caravan passed through Qingzhou on this trip. Can you allow the younger generation to accompany the younger generation? A little bit of common affairs, literacy, and laundry and chores. If you need to use it, Zheng Guanshi can give it to you."

Liao Wennan thought it would take a lot of work, but he didn't expect him to agree, "Uncle Liu is in charge of the caravan's accounting documents. He has been caught in the cold recently, and a lot of things can't be sorted out. Since Liao Xiaolang is in charge of the general affairs, let's help!"

Liao Wennan was overjoyed and leaned over to give a big gift, with a beautiful smile on his face.

Steward Zheng was a little dazzling, and he sighed in his heart, what kind of little Langjun is such a good talent!
In the blink of an eye, ten days passed, and they were about to enter Qingzhou City.

Tomorrow she will have to find an excuse to leave the caravan to find out whether Han Daoyuan's army has come to Qingzhou.

Liao Wennan helped Liu Weng move the sorted account books into the box, raised his head and asked, "Liu Weng, this batch of goods has been sorted out, and everything is correct. Let me help you to rest."

In fact, Liu Weng has just passed the age of knowing destiny. He is a little old man who loves to laugh. He may have been sleeping rough with the caravan all year round, and he looks older.He likes to let Liao Wennan call him Liu Weng, saying that when he sees him, he wants to see his little grandson.

Hearing the smile, he waved his hand: "Go and take a rest, see you are sweating from your busy work. Later, Steward Zheng said that there is something wrong. I'll wait for him, old man."

Liao Wennan is also sensible, Zuo Yi turned around and left.

Along the way, Liao Wennan can be considered to have seen the capabilities of the Yue's caravan, and the local government offices are very caring. If you look at the surname, you can probably guess the origin of the caravan.

The current emperor’s surname is Yue. Even if this caravan is not a royal family, it is a descendant of a royal family, and I am afraid that many royal relatives in Kyoto will have a share.

The caravan steward's surname is Zheng, but Liu Weng is in charge of all the money. She can see it these days. Zheng steward has the final say in the caravan's big and small affairs, but he still has to discuss with Liu Weng on matters involving money.

Therefore, Liao Wennan was very winking. She only did what Liu Weng explained, and if she didn't cross the line or ask questions, she would get into trouble with the lunatic people of the Yue family.

After dinner, Liao Wennan continued to read "The Story of Huayang Kingdom" borrowed from Liu Weng. The yellow paper used for copying the book is very good, delicate and smooth, with clear handwriting, and it looks very comfortable.In the caravan, only Liu Weng could have it. She only borrowed it after working for Liu Weng for three days. She wanted to read it before entering Qingzhou City tomorrow.

It may be that she will be traveling alone again tomorrow, and her future is uncertain. She is a little irritable, and she can't read it even after turning a few pages.

She had to lie down and rest early.

After tossing and turning for a long time, Liao Wennan fell into a daze.

I don't know when, I heard a knock on the door.

"Who!" Liao Wennan woke up instantly, picked up the pillow and asked the iron drill, alertly.

"Liao Xiaolang, it's me, Mu San. Liu Weng asked me to tell you that there are thieves in the inn, please hide in the house and don't go out!"

Mu San was about to leave after speaking through the door, and Liao Wennan hurriedly stopped him, "Liu Weng and everyone are okay, how many thieves are here, maybe we can deal with it?"

"I don't know for the time being, the old lady of the Zheng family and her girl are also staying in the inn. It was his family's part who first discovered the situation and dealt with the thief. Others also went to help!"

Liao Wennan remembered that another group of people had come to stay in the post house before dinner. There were dozens of people in the accompaniment, and Steward Zheng also helped them make a few rooms. He wanted to come to the other party with a lot of background, and they said that they were coming from Kyoto. of.

Most of Bu Qu are private soldiers raised by aristocratic families, not to mention that they have a chance of winning against some ordinary thieves.

There are also many experts in the caravan's guards. Mu San is the leader of the caravan's guards, so these thieves should not be afraid.

From the Zheng family from Kyoto, Liao Wennan suddenly remembered something and hurriedly asked, "Do you know which Zheng family it is?"

Only after hearing back did he know that Mu San had already left.

Before she could think about it, she heard a scream outside, which made her tremble and turn around to find something to block the door.After thinking about it, she turned around and messed up the bedding on the couch, scattered a few clothes on the ground, the oil lamp was overturned, the only box in the room was also opened, the water in the basin was sprinkled on the ground, and it was buckled upside down on the ground. , opened the door, and then quietly hid in the dark corner, curled up and breathed lightly.

After a cup of tea time, Liao Wennan subconsciously held his breath when he heard the footsteps getting closer.

Soon she saw the faint beating light, her heart sank, and the hand holding the iron rod trembled uncontrollably.

Obviously she was unlucky, this thief was really brave, holding the oil lamp in one hand and dragging the knife in the other.

She had goose bumps all over her body when she heard the sound of the blade rubbing against the ground.

The thief's footsteps stepped closer to her heartbeat. Seeing that he was about to be discovered, suddenly there was a ding at the door. The thief 'Huo' turned around and took a few steps towards the door to check.

It was at this moment that Liao Wennan told himself that he bowed his waist and took a few steps towards her gently, took a deep breath and bounced it hard, holding the iron drill in his hand high.

The thief was very alert, and when he heard the movement behind him, he immediately turned around and ducked to the side. The iron drill that was originally aimed at his heart could only be inserted into his arm.

Liao Wennan was horrified, the iron drill seemed to be stuck on an iron stone, and with all his strength, he could only pierce the opponent's flesh a little, and he could no longer move.

What's even more frightening is that she saw that the blow was unsuccessful and she wanted to escape, but she couldn't pull the iron drill, feeling that he had controlled every muscle of hers.

Before the future could react, the arm that was as thick as a stake in front of him quickly struck, and Liao Wennan felt himself flying up and fell to the ground.

Liao Wennan coughed twice in pain, and saw the thief glaring angrily, and the strong killing intent shot at the extreme, making her heart tremble with horror.

This person definitely has a lot of lives in his hands. She has seen many such people in her previous life, and most of them are sergeants who have just returned from the battlefield.

The thief pulled out the iron drill and threw it at random, and walked towards her dragging the knife.

The oil lamp fell on the scattered clothes and slowly began to burn, and soon it burned in front of Liao Wennan.

Liao Wennan dragged her body and slowly backed away, until she had nowhere to retreat under the wall, and the bedding was lit under her feet.

This was a shout from outside, and the thief was immediately anxious, no longer in the mood to play, and raised his knife to end Liao Wennan's life.

When Liao Wennan raised his knife, he grabbed the fire quilt on the ground and threw it over. She took the opportunity to avoid it.

The thief's knife slashed the quilt, wiped her body and fell, causing Liao Wennan's entire body to be in trouble, and he lost all strength.

It was at this moment that she began to doubt her previous decision for the first time.

Although he has ambition but has no ability to protect himself, can he really survive in this chaotic world by himself?
