Gongqing bone

Chapter 88
What Xue Feibai heard was terrified, what does this crazy criticism imply?The gold mine was not found, and she looked in a very bad mood, wondering who was going to be unlucky again...

Xue Feibai said: "The two of us 'bamboo basket fetching water in vain', I know you are very angry..."

"Who said we ran away for nothing? There is someone else who 'fetches water from a bamboo basket'." Du Heng squinted his eyes, and a dark light flashed past.

"Then what do you think we have gained from this trip?"

Du Heng didn't speak, just pointed to those Annan people who were captured, and those bird guns that were released from a long distance like burning sticks.

Xue Feibai gradually opened his eyes wide. Before he could speak, Wu Youdong's voice came from behind him:

"Niece Xian is really smart. The blunderbuss is a military weapon, and it is a very powerful firearm. Generally, only the Military Weapons Bureau of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Internal Affairs are in charge of making and using it. The local guards can only make scraps;
Annan is only a small country, and he is still a bunch of bandits and reckless, how can he have the most advanced bird gun in our dynasty?Whether it is the self-made firearms in the border town, or some sinners from the previous dynasty, this matter needs to be investigated carefully..."

Du Heng smiled, noncommittal.

Xue Feibai thought so too, the eighth and tenth princes would not be so stupid as to sell bird guns; if he really did that, it would be the old birthday star hanged himself—he thinks his life is too long.

And thinking of those Annan people not long ago when they saw Wu Youdong and his party and thought it was the arrival of reinforcements, there must be a large number of Annan people who will make a comeback.

Just as Xue Feibai wanted to continue asking, Wu Youdong coughed in embarrassment: "Nephew, I carry a change of clothes with me. If you don't mind it, you might as well wear it as my uncle..."

Xue Feibai really felt a bit confused by Monk Zhang Er, where did this come from?
When he was puzzled, he just turned around and saw his back in the river behind him: he saw a young man with a slender figure like a pine, holding his sleeves and trouser legs, indulging in the mountains and rivers, wanton and free and easy; such red lips and black eyes Who doesn't sigh a handsome young man! ?
But it was such a jade-like young man, with dirt on the back of his trousers, and two huge asses just happened to be printed! ! !

Xue Feibai felt his eyes go dark, thinking of his buttocks squatting when he slipped and fell in the woods, and thinking of Du Heng asking him to change his clothes...

Xue Feibai really wanted to cry at this moment, he understood why everyone treated him with a hesitant look, his wife is so listless!Du Heng, I'm not finished with you! ! !
Du Heng first smiled, patted Xue Feibai, and happily said: "Happy New Year", then ignored Xue Feibai's "murderous eyes", and she didn't say a word after seeing the buried clansman's corpse Jin Hua, she came to her side and first apologized: "I'm sorry Jin Hua, I still lied to you..."

Jin Hua shook her head bitterly, "Young Master, all of this is my wishful thinking...Can I still call you Young Master?..."

"nature."

Jin Hua opened her lips, wanting to say something, but in the end she didn't say a single word.

"Jinhua, take the rest of the tribe to Spring City!" Du Heng spoke first.

Jinhua didn't speak.

"I know that hot land is hard to leave. Your parents and relatives are buried in this land, but now you are the new leader of the clan, and you have to make plans for them."

"Young master, do you... really think that I can take on the important task of being the head of the clan? But I'm just a woman, and the only ones left in our clan are women, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled..."

Du Heng turned to look at Jin Hua standing against the backlight. She squinted her eyes to face the harsh sunlight and looked at her blurred outline, feeling that she was another self.She hoped that Jinhua could muster up the courage to try another possibility that Lin Zhijun hadn't tried.

If I hadn't chosen to die with my elder brother half a year ago, and had led the few remaining old departments of the Lin family to plan the layout, I think that one day I would also do "go to Quantai to recruit the old department, and kill Yan Luo with a hundred thousand banners"!
"Golden flower, do you know? The most glorious day in a person's life is not the day when the vengeance is avenged and the day when the enemy is slashed, but the day when the challenge to life arises from lamentation and despair, and the day when courageously marches towards the will.

Spring City is not a Taoyuan, and you will definitely encounter various problems when you move your family; but Mr. Wu is determined to reform the system and want to change the poverty of Yunnan and Guizhou. He has already gone ahead in Spring City and announced that women can also inherit incense, and they don’t have to be named husbands. , have full property inheritance rights like brothers.

Spring City is really the best choice for you. "

Jin Hua didn't speak, but Du Heng knew that she listened and was thinking seriously.

Du Heng got up and looked at the rolling river, "Jinhua, before you can think of a result, we still have one big thing to do—"

***
Wu Youdong looked at the Nanmilanzhang River running southward, and the sun in the east cast a little bit of light.Because the water level did not drop during the rainy season, there were some willows lying down on the river bank, all of which were covered with thick silt.

The river course is sometimes dangerous, and the waves hit the rocks and are patted into pieces of silver; the water flow is sometimes gentle, as gentle as the river bank where a girl is washing.

Wu Youdong is not a fool, he knows that the seemingly calm water surface is actually choppy with countless undercurrents, just like the treacherous situation in Beijing.

The tentacles of the power struggle between Beijing and China can be found in every corner of Wangtu.

"The great river goes east, the waves wash away, and there are people who have been romantic through the ages. The west side of the old base is humane, yes, yes, yes..."

Wu Youdong showed a sad face: "What is it?"

Ma Wuhan scratched his head with a smile: "Hey, my lord, I forgot..."

"Stop showing off, this river eventually leads to the South China Sea, what's the 'big river going east'..."

Ma Wu pouted: "Didn't you tell us to read more..."

"Read wisely and cultivate a noble spirit. It's not for showing off."

"Okay, okay, you're the one who makes sense...my lord, are you still thinking about the governor?"

"Yeah, how can you not think about it, the Governor-General apparently agreed to our coming to suppress the bandits this time, but his implication was too obvious, and he didn't even want to call a single soldier;
The magistrates and magistrates along the way don't expect them to work together, and it would be good if they don't get in the way;

I have followed the line of Spring City to investigate so far, and it would be a pity not to continue..."

Ma Wu also said emotionally: "My lord, you have treated us with great kindness! The common people expect to live a peaceful life with you. We, the old and rough, don't understand the affairs of the officialdom. We only know where you point and where we fight!"

　In one's life, the most glorious day is not the day of success and fame, but the day when the challenge of life and the courage to move forward from lamentation and despair arise. — Flaubert
