Retrograde for thousands of years

Chapter 28
The team of the marriage group moved forward slowly at a speed of twenty miles per day. Zhou Huan was just an inconspicuous figure in this huge team.

The reason why this unlucky nerd was able to join the regiment was just because he needed a Hanlin to fill his appearance and show that the Southern Dynasty attached great importance to this matter.

Everyone in the Liang Kingdom is not optimistic about this marriage. There have been constant civil strife in the Northern Wei Dynasty in recent years. Even the current king Helian Bobo killed his father and came to power five years ago. No one knows that one day he will lose his head and be sent over for marriage. Needless to say what happened to the princess.

Three days later, the team of the Heqin Regiment arrived in Chuzhou and had already penetrated deep into the hinterland of the Northern Wei Dynasty. The team stationed here and prepared to rest and move forward again.

Zhou Huan was wandering around the city, looking at the customs of the world.

Although this world has names such as Luoyang, Yangtze River, Jiankang, etc., many of the terrains are completely different. The city of Chuzhou is very prosperous. Zhou Huan is considering whether to find an opportunity to break away from the marriage group and then find an opportunity to go to the Liang Dynasty.

He has no interest in the marriage group, and he has no idea about the overt and covert fights after arriving in Luoyang. He is just a passerby in this world, and living a good life for ten years is the right choice.

"The boiled tofu is good, and the little girl is also very beautiful."

After eating a dish of boiled tofu at a roadside shop, when Zhou Huan was about to pay, the stall owner smiled and refused Zhou Huan's money and gift, and also gave him an extra plate of fennel beans.

"I think the young master is a scholar. Yun'er likes the stories he tells her very much. That's enough."

The stall owner has a very beautiful little daughter who helps in the shop. She is very sweet and sensible. Zhou Huan got a bad taste and taught her four ways to write fennel - a certain text in the previous world impressed him deeply. , he actually memorized Kong Yiji’s four ways of writing.

In the end, he left the money and Zhou Huan continued to wander around. Although he was not familiar with the place, these places were still very peaceful compared to places in black Africa and Europe.

After shopping around and preparing to go home, Zhou Huan suddenly saw a few smiling Hu men carrying some belongings and tying several crying women with ropes as they passed by him.

Among them was the little girl from the tofu shop.

The little girl was still stained with blood, and she was so scared that one of the barbarians was saying: "That old dog is really asking for his own death. It's not easy to ask him for money. He can't bear to part with this female doll. I'll chop him down." I stabbed him eleven times before hacking him to death, but he still held my leg tightly to see if I couldn't kill this little bitch properly when I went back..."

Taking a long breath, Zhou Huan ate the last candied haws in his mouth and put the bamboo stick in his sleeve.
After smiling slightly at the little girl and making a gesture of closing his eyes, the moment he passed by the foreigner, the bamboo stick pierced the right eye of the foreigner.

The next moment, the Hu man let out a miserable howl like a slaughtered pig, and Zhou Huan smoothly pulled out the scimitar from his waist. A bright silver light flashed, and blood spurted from the throat of the other Hu man.

"go!"

Zhou Huan roared angrily and trembled with the scimitar in his hand, blocking the attack of the remaining three barbarians.It has to be said that these barbarians are all battle-hardened warriors, skilled in martial arts and powerful. Zhou Huan had a hard time fighting one against three.

It was like a pot of water was poured into a pan, and the whole street started to boil. People of all kinds fled one after another. Even the women who were arrested turned around and left. The only exception was the little girl. Suddenly he pounced on the leg of a foreigner and bit him hard.

The barbarian was about to give Zhou Huan a blow from the side, which made him involuntarily reach out to grab the girl's hair. The next moment, his movements stopped, and the scimitar in Zhou Huan's hand ended his life.

After taking out one barbarian, without the cooperation of the triangular formation, Zhou Huan easily eliminated the remaining two barbarians.

"Come with me and don't cry, okay?"

Zhou Huan grabbed the girl's arm, grabbed a cloak from the roadside, put it on her, and led her towards the tofu shop.

"Do you have any relatives in your family?"

"I only have my father. Even if I go to my uncle's house, they don't dare to take me in, and it will hurt them. Uncle, thank you for saving me, just put me down. There were righteous men in the city who killed the barbarians, and then the city gate You have been blocked and arrested, you still have time to leave now." In the cloak, the warm tears of the little girl fell on Zhou Huan's arm drop by drop.

In troubled times, human life is worse than that of a dog, but in the eyes of barbarians?

Zhou Huan has seen massacres in black Africa and big riots in Ukraine. Logically speaking, he should be calm when encountering something like this today. The problem is that this kind of thing is so nonsense!

He had a familiar accent and Han Chinese attire. He had just had a meal in the shop. The honest shopkeeper and his beautiful daughter unexpectedly met with misfortune the next moment. They were killed and led like dogs.

"So do you have somewhere to hide it? I have some money here."

"Thank you uncle, I will find a place to hide. Don't worry uncle, I..."

The girl has woken up from her ignorance, she looked at Zhou Huan with a smile on her face, but how could her childish lies deceive Zhou Huan?If Zhou Huan let her go at this moment, her only end would be death.

"I know what you are thinking. Do you want to go back to the shop and die with your father? Or just go back and take another look, right?"

Zhou Huan held the girl's trembling arm, looked in the direction of the city gate, sighed, and walked towards the tofu shop.

The body of the shop owner was still lying in the shop. He was bloody and had no breath. What happened was very simple. A few barbarians were eating here. After eating, they not only refused to give money but also asked for money. I saw that the little girl was beautiful and wanted to grab the little girl and take her away.

How could the store owner not know what kind of virtue a Hu man has?If a girl enters a military camp, she will die in human form within a few days.

He pleads desperately, then resists, and then is killed.

The originally calm girl became like a crazy little beast at this moment, crying and wanting to be by her father's side. Not long ago, she was a playful girl beside her father, but now she is alone.

"We don't have time to waste."

Zhou Huan hugged the girl and caught a middle-aged man who looked honest and honest not far away. His candied haws were delicious.

"This is 30 taels of silver. You are responsible for cleaning up Boss Tang's body. He must be buried in peace. The rest is your hush money. If it is not handled well, I will come back to you. Do you understand? Hu people won't care. Even among the dead, no one has seen the silver.”

30 taels of silver was a large amount of wealth. Zhou Huan did not stop this time and headed out of the city gate.

"Miss Tang is a good girl, you must take good care of her."

The person behind him murmured, and Zhou Huan nodded.

The happy smile of this little girl named Yun Niang is very similar to the little girls he cares for at the small desk upstairs. They are all in their prime years, and they should all be living a carefree life in the fifth grade of elementary school.
