The devil is coming

Chapter 28 Return to the city!
ax,
fell down,
No too many words, no preparation, no foreplay, just straight to the point, but extremely smooth.
The woman fell to the ground. As a member of the Royal Barbarian Priest, she did not expect that her ending would be so inexplicable.
The caravan guard beside him was also stunned, as if what was happening in front of him was difficult to understand at all.
Fortunately,
Fan Li is an honest man,
He is a kind person,
He doesn't like people around him to suffer,
Therefore,
He likes to help others solve their problems and doubts.
But he also felt that he was stupid. At least, during the half year in the inn, Siniang and Xue San both laughed at his stupidity.
Therefore, he does not intend to help people solve their "troubles". He knows that he is not capable of this, but if he solves the problem for the troubled person, then the trouble will also be solved, right?
Because of this, there was an extra body on the ground.
Subsequently,
Fan Li sat on the mound,
He took out a large handful of scallions from his arms.
In the past few days, he ate a lot of shallots every day, and used all the money he had in the caravan to exchange for shallots. This thing is not difficult to find in the grasslands and Gobi.
Add some salt, add some yogurt, marinate it, and eat it in your mouth. It is astringent and spicy, and it is very spicy.
The caravan guard who just died has been very dissatisfied with this, because he and Fan Li slept in a tent at night. If you know that the name of this scallion in later generations is "Mongolian leek", you know that this thing is too much to eat. How big it must be.
But after eating a handful of shallots that day, Fan Li suddenly felt that his strength had become stronger!
Just like a beast instinctively looking for some trace elements to replenish itself, Fan Li took it for granted that it was the green onion that restored his strength.
So, he ate, every day, when he had nothing to do, he ate while riding, he ate while walking, and he kept it wrapped in his mouth when he slept.
eating and eating,
After eating, the sandstorm finally subsided,
eating and eating,
After eating, three horses appeared in front of me.
It's a bit far away, so I can't see clearly.
But on one of the horses,
That small and stubborn figure made Fan Li recognize that person's identity instantly.
Fan Li smiled, still honest and honest.
He waved the scallions in his hand,
He decides,
I want to share this magical food that can restore strength with my friends!
………………
"So, you recognized Xue San's dagger?"
"Yes, my lord, you recognized him. He has been grinding in the yard for half a year."
"That woman was chopped by you?"
"Cut it."
Fan Li made a simple and unpretentious gesture of chopping wood with his bare hands.
Zheng Fan nodded and handed the water bag in his hand to Fan Li. Fan Li took the water bag over with a smile and drank several big gulps.
Things in this world are so strange, as if there are really countless threads connecting one person and one thing.
To sum it up, it can be summed up in one sentence: fate is indescribable.
Fan Li followed Blind Bei's arrangement and followed the barbarian caravan to the desert to find out information, in order to leave an escape route for the inn.
If it doesn't work out, you guys can really retreat to the desert and open a new Longmen Inn, and Feng Siniang will switch to selling human meat buns.
Who would have imagined that the caravan was actually a spy team of the Barbarian Royal Court. The caravan was just a disguise, but in essence, it was still collecting information for the Royal Court.
Maybe the person in charge who recruited Fan Li was too low-level and didn't know the inside story, or maybe the caravan thought that Fan Li was strong and stupid and could ride a horse, so it was a good deal to recruit him as a strong man.
Anyway, I took him with me.
Then, by chance, the woman in white robe who had just escaped from the three of them accidentally ran into Fan Li's response team.
The dagger Xue San inserted into the woman's back became the best mark again.
In Fan Li's opinion, since he was the one who was penetrated by his partner,
That must be the enemy.
If her partner didn't penetrate her to death, then she would have to chop her to death, of course!
The matter was settled just like that.
However, both dolls survived, and Fan Li did not kill him.
Under Zheng Fan's order, Xue San took the two dolls to a nearby herdsman's house and gave the two dolls directly to the herdsman, while leaving a little money and two horses.
In fact, the safest way is to eliminate the root cause, but Zheng Fan can't make that determination.
Well, if a few decades later,
A generation of genius, the desert overlord, the Great Khan, who had nothing to do with shooting eagles, grew up and led thousands of troops to rush in front of him to seek revenge.
Then just kneel down, there is nothing to be unwilling to do.
Three people went out,
When going back,
It became four people.
Because they were delayed on the road, by the time the four of them returned outside Hutou City, the moon was already dark.
The gates of Hutou City will be closed at night, especially when the suspicion of war has not completely dissipated, but fortunately this time out, Zheng Fan managed to get an official status.
Even if this official status is not as good as Sun Dasheng's Bima Wen, after all, Bima Wen at least has a horse, while Zheng Fan doesn't even have a horse.
When he arrived at the city gate, he called the door and a hanging basket was lowered from it, and Zheng Fan was hoisted up.
Zheng Fan held in his hand the letter from the female general of Zhenbei Hou's family and the seal of commission. He first met with the captain of the soldiers guarding the city gate, then the commander, then the centurion, and then the centurion. Then came the city patrol officer named Wang Li.
Everyone took his letter and letter of appointment and looked at Zheng Fan again with a strange look.
At last,
Zheng Fan was like a finished product on an assembly line, being passed through and sent back. Finally, he came to a lobby.
Sitting at the head of the hall was a man with a big belly. This man, Zheng Fan, remembered that he was sitting behind Xiazi Bei's stall that day and watched him riding a "foreign beast" and leading a group of cavalry on the street. horse.
Zheng Fan still remembered that his official name meant recruiting envoys, not recruiting people to be beaten;
Probably similar to the general security commander of a region, responsible for arresting bandits and fighting against rogues.
Blind Bei once told Zheng Fan that the official positions in Yan State were a bit complicated and could not be completely transferred to a certain ancient dynasty.
At the bottom, there is an official with white hair and beard. Not surprisingly, he should be the real leader of Hutou City, he can be called the county magistrate. Of course, foreign businessmen like to call him the city lord.
It was obvious that this Lord Recruiting Envoy surpassed the County Magistrate in terms of rank.
The recruiter read the letter and the letter of appointment, and then said to Zheng Fan who was standing below:
"Tell us about the war."
Next, is Zheng Fan's narration. Except that he and Liang Cheng and Xue San were hidden in advance, the rest was basically without adding any detail. As for the credit, it was his good luck in killing the leader of the Shatuo tribe.
After finishing the story, the recruiter nodded and said:
"Zheng Xiaowei, from now on you will be under my control. I hope you can do a good job and live up to the expectations of the Holy Emperor, the support of the Zhenbei Houfu, and I hope you will also live up to my high expectations."
This was the scene, Zheng Fan immediately nodded in agreement.
"Okay, Lieutenant Zheng, you have been working hard all the way. Let's go home and rest first. I will give you ten days' leave. After ten days, you can come to the Yamen to do some work."
Zheng Fan responded, turned around and left.
After Zheng Fan left the lobby,
The county magistrate looked at the envoy with some worry, cupped his hands and said:
"Sir, why did the Zhenbei Hou Mansion do this?"
"Why? It's just a beggar. How can someone be lucky enough to be a civilian husband and kill a thief?"
"Then...what about us?"
"We don't need to do anything, just watch. Right now, the Marquis of Zhenbei is in the capital. It is said that the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Zhenbei is responsible for all matters in the Zhenbei Marquis's mansion."
"Sir, are you saying that this war was started by a woman?"
"You said it, I didn't say anything. Haha, in short, the relationship between the imperial court and the Marquis of Zhenbei is too delicate now. It's best for us to just wait and see what happens."
"The food, grass, weapons, horses..."
"Why do you care about this? She has obviously thrown a bad taro here, why should we take it as a piece of cake? Why do you like it? Before the matter in the capital is settled, we'd better not do anything. Don’t do it by remaining unchanged in the face of ever-changing circumstances.”
"My lord is saying it, my lord is saying it."
"Zheng Fan, is the Zheng family a wealthy family in your Hutou City?"
"That's not true. It seems that I entered the city when the city re-registered refugees and registered their household registration six months ago. I opened an inn in the city. Their wine tastes good."
"Yeah, okay, that's it. Now that the battle is over and won, the city ban should be lifted tomorrow. It's too much of a delay."
"Yes, I will order you to go down now."
"Well, no."
The magistrate saluted and walked out of the lobby.
In the lobby, only the fat messenger and his entourage were left.
Zhao Zhi leaned his fat body on the chair, stretched out his hand to rub his forehead, and said:
"Do you think the Marquis and the young lady can survive this hurdle?"
The attendant was helping to pour tea. Hearing this, he hesitated and said:
"Marquis and good people have their own destiny."
"I don't like hearing this kind of nonsense. That's all. Have you written the memorial to impeach the Zhenbei Hou family for corruption and power abuse?"
"I'm ready. But, Ah Lang, do you really want to send this memorial?"
"What else can we do if we don't give it away? If the Marquis is fine, then everything will be fine. If something happens to the Marquis, I, the desperate vanguard of the Northern Marquis, might be able to help the Marquis and the young lady get around something."
"Alang has a heart."
"It's all life, it's all life. I owe it to the Marquis and the young lady."
"Then the one named Zheng Fan just now, Captain Zheng, are Alang really ready to leave it alone?"
"What the hell? What the hell, a few days ago he was just a commoner. Even if I give him food, wages and equipment now, will he dare to rebel against me later when the Marquis is really in trouble?
Does he have the courage? "
"this…………"
"Let him be. The lady didn't mention any plans for him in the letter."
"However, A Lang, since he was promoted by the young lady, then he can be regarded as having the mark of the Zhenbei Houfu on him."
"Okay, if he has the ability to pull up people, horses and equipment by himself, I will recognize his ability, hahaha..."
………………
The city gate opened. At the city gate, Zheng Fan met Xue San, Liang Cheng and Fan Li who came in behind. Then, the four of them led their horses and walked on the street together.
There is no curfew in Hutou City. Even though the war is now shrouded in suspicion, there is still no curfew. However, there are indeed many more soldiers patrolling the streets.
It was not appropriate to ride a horse in the city at night. After all, the one Zheng Fan was riding was not a variant of Pixiu.
"After you get home, take a bath and relax your muscles and bones first." Zheng Fan stretched as he spoke.
He doesn't have much concept of "being an official" now. In fact, the recruiter and the county magistrate are not very enthusiastic about him. This also means that his job, well... it's just like that. .
However, it doesn't matter anymore. I went out for a trip, witnessed fighting on the battlefield, and even killed someone myself. This feeling is more like a transformation.
"My lord, Si Niang is good at massaging. You can ask him to give you an essential oil SPA."
Xue San suggested enthusiastically from the side.
When Zheng Fan heard this, his mind immediately came to mind...
However, Zheng Fan still shook his head. If you want to say that you are not attracted to Siniang, it is impossible. No normal male animal can be uninterested in a woman like Siniang.
"You are my friends and my family in this world."
With the help of the bright moon, Zheng Fan no longer felt pretentious and sensational, and directly spoke out what was in his heart,
"I never considered you my subordinates, ever."
After all, I don’t dare, for fear of being chopped down.
"That's not the case. My lord, Siniang once opened a large conference center in the Magic City. She also specially trained her technicians. Her own skills must be the best..."
"Needless to say, this is disrespectful to Si Niang. In her heart, she should have a man who belongs to her."
A woman with flavor, a woman with stories, and a mature woman basically has a catalyst called "man". However, it is only responsible for catalyzing the reaction. After the reaction, the catalyst can be thrown away, and it will not really Integrate into the reaction.
At this time, Fan Li, who was walking at the back and holding the horse, suddenly shouted:
"My lord, Si Niang is still a virgin."
