My house was confiscated and I was exiled. I emptied the emperor's warehouse and fled.

In the hall of a large house in the east of the city, candlelight flickered.

A gray-haired old man sat in the guest seat with a sad face: "I just received the news that the Tiger Gang's supplies were burned. Those people spent a lot of money but got nothing. They are likely to continue to join forces and point their swords at you and me."

Sitting on the main seat was a woman with a thin and haggard face but extremely beautiful bones. After hearing this, she said in a tight voice: "Immediately send more manpower to guard the checkpoint. If there is any situation, report it immediately."

"Yes!" A tall man took the order and left.

After the rebels left, the two families joined forces and used adobe bricks made by local residents to build a wall and set up a checkpoint at the intersection of the street. It was always guarded and no outsiders were allowed to approach.

When Jizhou City was divided and annexed by major forces and was in dire straits, the street in the east of the city was closed to self-government and was a rare pure land.

There have been rumors outside that there are two wealthy families living in this street, and they have accumulated countless supplies, enough to last for several years.

Many forces wanted to capture this street, but they paid a lot of blood and failed miserably.

Now that those big forces have joined forces, the situation has taken a turn for the worse.

The old man added: "Even if our two families join forces, we can't withstand their attack. My advice is to save your life."

"You mean to give up the defense?" the beautiful woman asked in surprise.

"Withdraw your people and only protect your own people. Don't forget, those residents not only gave directions to the rebels, causing heavy losses to your family and our family, but they also shamelessly asked for food supplies from our family. In terms of duty, , but they don’t even contribute a single person, they only know how to sit back and enjoy the benefits. Such people are not worthy of our sacrifice. "

The beautiful woman was speechless, "...wait for Brother Luo to come back and let him make his decision. Counting the time, it's time to come back."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was movement from the front yard.

"It's right inside, please come in." Qin Junluo opened the door and said to Qin Junyi and Su Yunwan.

As soon as Su Yunwan stepped into the courtyard gate, she noticed several figures hiding in the dark. Her fingers were pinched by someone. It was Qin Junyi who reminded her to remain calm.

They followed Qin Junluo, and when they were about to go to the upper hall, the tall man with a big sword was coming back after passing the order. He glanced at Su Yunwan and Qin Junyi without leaving a trace, raised his hands and said to Qin Junluo: "Young Master, Mr. Jiang is here. Yes, Madam is waiting inside."

As soon as he finished speaking, a female voice came from the hall: "Is Brother Luo back? Come in quickly."

"That's my mother, come in together." Qin Junluo said enthusiastically.

Su Yunwan walked to the door of the upper hall and was stunned when she saw the face she had met several times before.

The white-haired old man Jiang Deman looked sideways, stood up from his seat with a bang, and stared at Qin Junyi: "Are you the Qin family guard who saved me?"

Qin Junyi:......

Su Yunwan:......

Qin Junluo:! ! !

"Mr. Jiang, do you know Brother Wu?" Qin Junluo clenched his fists and suppressed the shock in his heart.

Jiang Deman said firmly: "I told you that a few months ago, the people who rescued me from the earthen jar grave were this young hero and Mrs. Qin. I recognize this mask and will never There will be mistakes.”

After speaking, Jiang Deman looked at Su Yunwan and found that she was somewhat similar to Mrs. Qin he just mentioned.

Su Yunwan turned sideways to avoid his gaze and looked at Qin Junyi: What should I do?

Qin Junyi said calmly: "I didn't expect Mr. Jiang to have a photographic memory and still remember even the one-time encounter. I am indeed employed by the Qin family, and I came here this time under the order of General Qin to find the family members in the northwest."

The beautiful woman, Qin Junluo's mother Luo Qiongying, asked anxiously: "How is Brother Yi's health now? Is he seriously injured?"

Facing his second aunt, Qin Junyi could no longer pretend to be sad as before: "Don't worry, he is receiving treatment from Dr. Hua and is almost recovered."

"Really? Doctor Hua can really pull out the Soul-Destroying Nail? But I heard that people who tried to pull it out in the past were all paralyzed or even died. If he is not sure, he can't do it easily!"

The more Luo Qiongying thought about it, the more panicked she became. Instead of taking such a huge risk, she might as well just stay in bed and recuperate, and then look for the Xinglin master who was hiding in the world and had no confidence.

At this time, Qin Junluo, whose eyes were slightly moist, advised: "Mother, don't worry, Doctor Hua is not a reckless person and will consider it."

After saying that, he glanced at Qin Junyi, with surprise, joy and sadness intertwined in his eyes, which was extremely complicated.

Qin Junyi touched his nose, coughed and said, "Let's go see the people who have the disease first."

"Please come this way." Qin Junluo calmed down the emotions in his eyes and said politely immediately.

Just like the escort agency, the sick people are concentrated in a side hospital for isolation. There are a large number of people, and most of them are women and children. A few women who are well protected are burning charcoal and delivering water to take care of them.

After Su Yunwan looked around, he asked Qin Junluo to give each of them a special medicine.

Qin Junluo took several medicine bottles and distributed them to the women responsible for taking care of them, asking them to give them medicine immediately.

Soon after swallowing the medicine, the sick people fell to the ground and fell asleep one by one.

When the women saw it, they all showed tense expressions, and there was an unconcealable murderous aura all over their bodies.

Even if it was later discovered that those people's breath was still there, but they were just sleeping symptoms, they were not completely relieved.

They avoided Qin Junyi and Su Yunwan, and asked Qin Junluo one by one with their eyes and lips: Are you sure they are really sent by the general? If you have evil intentions, you will be in danger!

Qin Junluo:......

If the eldest brother has evil intentions, no one in the Qin family will survive.

But the sister-in-law... was really beyond his expectation.

Su Yunwan received Qin Junluo's inquiring gaze and raised the corners of her lips slightly: "Don't worry, this pill is a special medicine that your Doctor Hua has personally judged, and most people can't get it yet."

Qin Junluo quickly thanked him, and then hinted to the women that they could rest assured.

Qin Junyi looked at the faces of his relatives who were suffering from illness, and his expression became more and more grim.

After taking the medicine, Su Yunwan asked Qin Junluo: "How did you get to know Mr. Jiang?"

Qin Junluo said: "There are many people in the Jiang family, and they happen to live in the big house next door..."

It turned out that this house and the house next door belonged to the same family. After the owner's parents died, the two brothers divided the big house into two, with a high wall in the middle to separate them, and a door was left to facilitate communication.

After the epidemic got out of control, they fled with their whole family to a village in the countryside outside the city, leaving only a few slaves to look after the house.

The Qin and Jiang families negotiated with their slaves and rented the house.

The rebels entered the city and looted. In order to protect themselves, the people in the same street diverted the trouble to the east, and the rebels stormed the house where the Qin family stayed.

There were too many opponents, the gate was breached, and the Qin family could not stop them all. The female relatives were arrested and harassed by the rebels who rushed to the backyard.

At the critical moment, Mr. Jiang ordered the men of his clan to come to the rescue. Not only did he kill the rebels who were bullying the women in the backyard, but he also asked the women to take shelter in the dark room of their house.

Without any worries, the Qin family fought bravely and finally drove the rebels out of the house.

The defeated rebels were so embarrassed that they turned to attack the second house that the people said, which was the Jiang family next door.

When the exhausted Qin family troops heard the noise, they only paused for a few moments before going to the Jiang family through the small door to help. It took a lot of effort to defeat the rebels.

The defeated rebels couldn't take advantage of the two families, so they turned around and rushed into the homes of civilians who showed them the way.

The screams of begging for mercy and screams filled the sky.

Since then, the Qin and Jiang families have been together through thick and thin. In order to prevent the rebels from coming back, they collected stored adobe bricks, built a wall at the intersection, and sent people on duty to defend against robbery by others.

After hearing this, Su Yunwan asked: "Did they know your identity from the beginning?"

"We didn't know it at first, but we told them after we joined forces. It was also at that time that we learned that the Jiang family had already had a relationship with our family."

After Qin Junluo finished speaking, he glanced at Qin Junyi and Su Yunwan with a smile, "If Mr. Jiang died in the earthen jar grave, there would be no situation where the two families join forces today."

Su Yunwan and Qin Junyi smiled at the same time.

This kind of fate is really... wonderful.
