Start fleeing famine, I have a blind box system

"Because I haven't found it for so many years, I haven't mentioned it to you all the time. I can only look for it secretly."

"Master, we will accompany you to inquire again." Yun said with distressed eyes.

She has been looking for her husband for so many years, she knows about it, but she did not expect to get the news here.

"That's right, Daddy, it's not necessarily Little Auntie, don't worry, we have to go to the City Lord's Mansion to inquire about it."

"Guest officer, take your order, please take your time." At this moment, Xiao Er smiled and served the last dish.

"You guys eat first, and I'll go to the City Lord's Mansion to inquire after dinner." Su Sheng said with a sad face.

…………

After dinner, Su Sheng came to the vicinity of the City Lord's Mansion alone. It was as dilapidated and deserted as the whole city.

Su Sheng knocked lightly on the door.

"Squeak~~"

The door was opened a crack, and a young man's head came out, and he asked suspiciously, "Who are you looking for?"

Su Sheng cupped his hands and said, "Hello little brother, I want to meet the city lord, could you please pass it on to me?"

"Sorry, our Lord City Lord hasn't seen you for a long time."

As soon as he heard that he wanted to see the city lord, the young man immediately wanted to close the door.

Su Sheng quickly reached out to stop him, took out a silver nugget from his pocket and stuffed it to the young man, and said with a smile: "Brother, please tell me that I am an old friend of the madam, and I have something to ask the city lord."

It may be that the silver has played a role, or it may be that this person is really someone the madam knows, and the city lord will want to meet.

So the young man hesitated for a moment and said: "Then you wait here, I will go in and ask."

"boom………"

After finishing speaking, the young man closed the door and hurried to the inner courtyard. Usually at this time, the city lord would sit in the bamboo courtyard that his wife liked to drink, and then went back to his room to rest after getting drunk.

There were not many servants along the way. Since the city lord's mansion fell into disrepair, a large number of servants had been sold out, leaving only a dozen or so cleaning and doing chores.

The young man came to a courtyard where a bamboo forest could be seen from the courtyard gate, and found his city lord on a stone table in the bamboo forest.

"My lord, there is a man outside the door, who says he is an old friend of Madam, and wants to see you, will you meet?"

I saw a young man lying on the stone table with loose hair, disheveled robes and a stubble face. The first impression he gave was that he was thin, handsome and decadent.

Feng Ziyi raised the jug and continued to drink, his eyes slightly closed and he said, "No see."

"Okay, my lord, then I will send him away."

When the young man turned around and was about to walk out of the yard, Feng Ziyi paused while drinking, and said, "Wait a minute, did he...did he say it was someone from Madam?"

"No, it's just Madam's old friend."

"Well... let's go back."

After Feng Ziyi finished speaking, he continued to pick up the flagon to drink, and after drinking to the point of intoxication, he took out the cherished portrait in his arms.

The portrait is of a beautiful woman, with a pair of tender eyes like water, with a smile on her brows, even if her lips are slightly covered by a handkerchief pinched by jade fingers, it is not difficult to see the brilliance of her smile.

"Yu'er...Yu'er...Yu'er, you are here, I miss you so much, haha." Feng Ziyi murmured drunkenly, tears dripping down the corners of his eyes.

…………

"Sorry, my Lord City Lord doesn't see any guests."

After the doorman finished speaking this time, he directly closed the door, leaving only Su Sheng who was distressed outside the house.

Seeing that there was no way for Su Sheng to enter through the main entrance, he had no choice but to go back to the inn first.

"Daddy is back!"

When he returned to the room, he found that Yunshi and Su Zhenzhen were sitting in the room of their father and son waiting for him. He couldn't help but feel warm, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

"I'm back, daughter-in-law, why don't you take Guaibao back to your room to rest?"

"We're waiting for you, how about it?" Yun asked worriedly.

Su Sheng sighed: "I didn't see it, let's go and see it tomorrow, it's very late, you two hurry back and rest."

"Well, we will go with you tomorrow."

"Yes, Daddy, we will accompany you." Su Zhenzhen also nodded.

"Okay, let's go together." Su Sheng smiled and sent the two of them back to the room before going to sleep.

...............

In the middle of the night, because they were tired from the journey for the past few days, for the first time tonight, they did not meditate and practice their minds, but chose to rest.

"Bang bang bang..."

"Boom boom boom... boom boom..."

Suddenly, the sound of drums and gongs came from outside the inn.

"Get up, everyone!!! The barbarians are attacking the city!!"

All of a sudden, many torches were lit on the dark street, and everyone got dressed and came out to see what was going on.

I saw the soldiers guarding the city gate, holding gongs and drums in their hands, beating all the way non-stop, and rushing all the way to the city lord's mansion.

The butler of the city lord received the news and hurried into his young master's yard.

Sure enough, he saw the young master hugging the portrait of his wife reeking of alcohol, and fell asleep soundly drunk.

The housekeeper was sweating profusely as he shook Feng Ziyi and shouted loudly: "Master, Master!! Wake up soon!! The barbarians are attacking the city!!!"

"Master, master...wake up..."

"Huh? Uncle Zhong? Don't make trouble... I'm swimming in the lake with Yu'er?" Feng Ziyi opened his eyes bewilderedly for a moment and then closed them again.

The uncle housekeeper was so anxious that he was about to cry: "Young master, wake up, the barbarians are coming to attack the city! With our Fengcheng force, we will definitely not be able to stop it. Get up quickly! We are going to run for our lives, don't you think about it for yourself?" Think, think about the young master!"

Hearing the young master, Feng Ziyi only twitched his eyelashes slightly, and had no intention of getting up at all.

The butler looked disappointedly at the child he had grown up with, toddling, reciting the Three Character Classic, topping the list in high school, marrying a wife and having children, aspiring to be a high-ranking official, pleading for the people, watching He firmly said that he would restore Fengcheng to its former glory.

After the death of his wife, everything came to naught, the former young master also disappeared, and the only one alive was a drunkard.

"Master, Madam has passed away, are you going to give up the young master now? Do you still remember what you promised Madam! You promised to take good care of the young master, but how long have you not seen the young master?"

"Do you still remember? Madame said that she likes you for being vigorous, gentle, and upright. Look at yourself now, how is it different from the tramps outside! Underworld, do you have the face to see Madam?"

"Master, if you don't leave, old servant, I, who has half of my trouser legs in the coffin, naturally died with you, but it's a pity, young master, he is only seven years old, and the child prodigy who uttered poems at the age of three is now going to die." He died with us in a daze and ignorance." The housekeeper said harshly.

Hearing this, Feng Ziyi shook his eyelashes, and finally opened his eyes.
