Rebirth of the eldest daughter

Chapter 1338 I hope things won’t be as bad as I thought
Ah Yi put on a different outfit and returned to the post house where the regent of Western Chu stayed.

Just now, he said goodbye to the Baifu as Feng Qingchen, and informed everyone in the Baifu that he was setting off to Jiangbei to assist the general.

The people in the Bai Mansion were already worried about Bai Mingwei. Although they were ashamed that Bai Mingwei was already on the road, he was on his way again, but they didn't stop him.

But no one knew it, so he turned around and came to the post house.

This time, he was the regent of Western Chu.

His appearance caused no ripples.

And Yuanwu's courtyard was surprisingly peaceful.

Entering the master's room, he sat on the chair where the master usually sat. At this moment, Ah Yi, in the eyes of ordinary people, was no different from the regent of Western Chu.

Ah Wu appeared next to him and gave him a hand: "Master said that during the time he left Yujing, all affairs here will be decided by the eldest brother."

Ah Yi nodded slightly: "I understand. How did Yuan Xun react after the master left?"

Ah Wu shook his head: "It's surprisingly quiet."

Ah Yi pondered for a moment and then spoke firmly: "The calm before the storm, Yuan Xun may have implemented some terrible plan."

Ah Wu said: "The master and the girl will handle matters in Jiangbei, so we don't need to worry. We just need to keep an eye on what's going on in Yujing City."

Ah Yi nodded in agreement: "Yes, I understand."

Ah Wu continued: "The envoys from Western Chu have been stationed in Dongling for too long. Dongling officials have changed from hinting us to return to Western Chu to directly urging us to go back."

"Master disdains them, but we must have a legitimate reason to stay. Brother, I'm afraid you have to go to the palace from time to time to meet Liu Hongcai."

Hajime agreed and then asked: "When will Master Zero come back?"

Ah Wu shook his head: "I'm not sure at the moment. Master Ling has other important matters after assisting the girl in clearing the silt. He is currently dealing with the tasks assigned to him by the master and is not sure about his return date."

Adao said: "Xiaowu, neither master nor I are in Xichu. Master Ling has been sent out to perform a mission again. Please keep an eye on Xichu's affairs. Master cares about the girl and devotes himself wholeheartedly to her affairs. I We can’t ignore one thing and lose the other, which will give those stupid/eager villains in Xichu an opportunity.”

Ah Liu responded seriously: "Yes, big brother."

The two of them were discussing how to support the situation after their master left, while on the other side, Xiao Chongyuan was rushing to Jiangbei at full speed.

The horses were galloping at a galloping pace until sunset. Only then did Xiao Chongyuan take a short rest, replenish food and water, and allow the horses to breathe.

A small fire illuminated the area in front of him.

Xiao Chongyuan added some dry branches to the fire, then strung the cakes on the branches, and inserted the branches around the fire.

After a while, the dry biscuits were baked until they were golden and crispy.

Xiao Chongyuan just pulled out the branch and was ready to enjoy it.

The little white ferret then slowly emerged from his clothes, revealing a small head.

The tip of its nose twitched. When the smell of pancakes filled its nostrils, its eyes suddenly widened. It couldn't wait to crawl out, grab the pancakes and devour them.

It held the pancake in its paws and gnawed it quickly, glaring at Xiao Chongyuan from time to time, showing a clear intention to protect its food.

Xiao Chongyuan couldn't help but shook his head: "I've been busy traveling these past few days and I didn't let you eat well. It's my fault. But there's no need for you to be so defensive about me. You really make me sad."

The little white ferret rolled her eyes at Xiao Chongyuan, and then continued to eat the cake.

In the face of hunger, it can turn a blind eye even if its master's heart is broken into pieces.

However, because I ate too quickly and too vigorously.

The dry pancake choked its throat, causing it to jump up and down and scratch its neck with its little paws.

It rolled several times on the ground, and finally could only helplessly ask Xiao Chongyuan for help.

Xiao Chongyuan picked up its tail and shook it a few times, finally shaking out the dry biscuits stuck in its throat.

It was choked with tears, jumped on the horse and stretched out its paws to get the kettle.

As a result, the water in the kettle was already exhausted, and it could only run into the forest dejectedly, following the sound of water.

Xiao Chongyuan ignored it and ate the pancake slowly.

Unexpectedly, a sharp neighing sound suddenly came from the forest.

Xiao Chongyuan put down the things in his hands, picked up his feet, and quickly moved towards the direction where the screams came from.

Just when he stopped, a white shadow quickly rushed to squat on his shoulder.

Xiao Chongyuan put his backhand on its head and asked softly: "Why are you so scared? What did you see?" The little white ferret held his finger and babbling for a long time, so anxious that its fur exploded. .

It doesn't know whether it has made it clear or not.

Xiao Chongyuan pulled it over and held it in his arms.

"Don't be afraid, it's okay."

The little white ferret hid in Xiao Chongyuan's arms and cried.

Because it was restless, it was difficult for Xiao Chongyuan to feel connected with it. Only fear could really be felt by Xiao Chongyuan.

It even dares to kill people. What kind of situation would scare it to this extent?

Nature is the case with animals.

From its "incoherent" expression, Xiao Chongyuan probably knew the current situation.

There were some wild boar carcasses lying scattered in front of them. They looked like a family.

The deaths of these wild boars were not due to poisoning or attacks, but rather to the abnormal death of thick water flowing from their mouths and noses.

Xiao Chongyuan frowned slightly: "It seems that he has swine fever."

The little white ferret huddled up in fear and shivered.

Xiao Chongyuan patted it on the back and comforted it: "Don't be afraid, you won't get swine fever."

The little white ferret raised its head, babbling again, and grinning anxiously.

It seems to be saying: Swine fever can be transmitted to humans, but minks cannot get it, but their masters can!

Xiao Chongyuan put it on his arm and asked it: "Take a good look. Apart from the wild boar carcass, is there anything else strange about it?"

This situation occurred before reaching the boundary of Jiangbei. It is likely to be a disaster in Jiangbei, which will have more or less impact on the downstream areas.

For example, during the time of the disaster, the water source was contaminated, causing animals that consumed the sewage to suffer from the plague.

But it is winter now, which is not the season when pig and poultry plagues are most common.

There is something strange about this matter.

The little white ferret raised its head tremblingly and looked left and right, and finally it retracted into Xiao Chongyuan's arms.

Obviously, there is nothing unusual about it.

Xiao Chongyuan clenched the bamboo pole in his hand, and he slowly pulled out the sword. The dark sword like a spiritual snake instantly cut through the winter dusk.

There were several noises, and nearby trees fell down, covering the wild boar's carcass.

Xiao Chongyuan took out the fire fold and threw it over, and the thick dead branches and leaves spread on the ground were instantly ignited.

The fire grew bigger and bigger, and after a while, the fallen trees were completely burned.

In the raging fire, the wild boar's carcass turned into nothingness bit by bit.

Xiao Chongyuan gently stroked the little white ferret's head: "Xiao Bai, I have an ominous premonition. Let's hurry up. We have to get to the little girl as soon as possible."

After saying that, Xiao Chongyuan held the little white ferret in his hands and walked towards the place where he rested just now.

The little white ferret babbled: Aren't you afraid of causing wildfires?

Xiao Chongyuan said quietly: "It's okay, it won't burn."

The little white ferret retorted: The weather is dry and dry, which is very dangerous.

Xiao Chongyuan said in a sweet voice: "I feel even more anxious when I can't see the little girl. When it catches fire, you will be the first to be burned."

The little white ferret shrank its head and looked at the still burning fire. It didn't dare to call again.

But in my heart, I scolded that stinky woman again.

He cursed and cursed, but also felt that he should not be rude to Hui Hui's master, lest the future mother-in-law would not marry Hui Hui to him.

It could only gnash its teeth and get angry.

The life of a mink is difficult, and the only way to survive is through hard work.

Xiao Chongyuan sighed softly: "Chapter 1338 I hope things won't be as bad as I thought."
