Traveling through famine years, peasant girls hold space in their hands to store food

The four of them got on their horses and headed towards the direction described by their grandfather under the moonlight.

Chu Haochen had an intuition that this group of people should be hiding in this valley, but they still needed to search carefully for this specific location.

Several people were riding horses and checking as they walked:

"Mo Yi, you and Ziyao go over there, and I and Qing'er go over here. Let's go separately to investigate, and be careful!"

"It's the master!"

Mo Yi raised his hand towards Chu Haochen with a serious look on his face, then turned to look at Ziyao, and the two of them rode horses and walked straight ahead.

Lu Qingqing frowned and looked in another direction. She got off her horse and looked around.

"Chu Haochen, you see there are signs of fighting inside. I think this is where my grandfather said he was attacked."

Chu Haochen got off his horse and walked slowly to Lu Qingqing's side. He held up the fire fold in his hand and looked at where Lu Qingqing was pointing. He saw that there were indeed obvious marks on the tree, and they were the latest ones.

She raised her head to identify the direction, guessing the scene and the direction in which those people were retreating.

"Chu Haochen's side!"

As she said that, she led the horse and walked towards the west. The deeper they went into the forest, the more lush the trees became. It was difficult for the horse to move forward. The two had to put the horse into the space first. middle.

Chu Haochen held her hand and walked in front, the dagger in his hand pushing aside the surrounding bushes.

The two walked for half an hour before they touched a wide place.

"It seems to have been created by man."

Lu Qingqing looked around, and the two of them spread out to explore the front. The two of them slowly walked up the slope and suddenly saw the whole valley clearly.

There seems to be a small village hidden in the valley, and faint lights can still be seen at this time.

The two looked at each other and nodded to each other, groping slowly towards the village.

"careful!"

Chu Haochen suddenly spotted a group of people patrolling in front of him, and immediately took Lu Qingqing's arm and hid behind a big tree.

Lu Qingqing was held in his arms, and her breathing became much softer. It wasn't until the group of people walked away that the two of them emerged from the darkness.

"It seems like this place is no ordinary village."

Chu Haochen stared into the distance with sharp eyes and nodded silently.

"Let's go over there and take a look. Be careful."

After saying this, the two of them walked cautiously in the other direction. They first came to an inconspicuous thatched house.

Looking at the dim lights inside, the two of them exchanged glances and jumped toward the courtyard with a tap of their feet.

Lu Qingqing looked at the movement outside the courtyard, while Chu Haochen tiptoed towards the window.

“Drink, drink.”

"Come on, come on, five leaders, six six!"

Chu Haochen looked inside through the broken window paper and saw four or five strong men inside drinking wine.

Seeing this, Chu Haochen stepped back, looked at each other with Lu Qingqing, and motioned to look elsewhere.

After a while, the two of them appeared directly in a larger courtyard.

At this time, noisy sounds can still be heard inside.

"Brother, we encountered a problem this time. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be an official's family. If we act privately this time, will our master..."

"I told you not to be greedy. If you don't listen, the merchant who stopped passing by last time has already made us a fortune. Let you stop. This time, the master will not find out. If the master finds out, he will do anything to everyone. Don’t even think about it!”

As he spoke, several people in the room looked worried, and they opened their mouths but didn't know what to say.

"Forget it, don't even think about it, just restrain yourself recently."

"Yes, yes, brother is right, he has been more honest recently."

When Chu Haochen heard this, his face darkened, and Lu Qingqing on the side stretched out her hand to signal him to leave first.

The two glanced at the noisy room and then flew out of here.

He didn't stop until he was in the woods.

"Who's there?"

Chu Haochen and Lu Qingqing stared cautiously at the direction where the noise came from.

The two of them silently took out their daggers and moved closer to that place.

At this moment, the figures of Mo Yi and Ziyao jumped down from the tree.

"Master, I am a subordinate."

Mo Yi stepped forward and cupped his hands, and saw that he actually joined his master.

Chu Haochen asked the two if they had discovered anything.

Mo Yi and Ziyao looked at each other, and then reported back to their master. The two of them found troops stationed in another part of the valley, at least twenty thousand.

"Let's go back first."

Mo Yi and Ziyao glanced at their master, then turned around and walked towards the place where their horses were hiding at his master's signal.

Lu Qingqing watched the two people leaving before carefully letting the horse out of the way.

Chu Haochen helped her get on the horse, letting her go first and he would come later.

As he spoke, Chu Haochen left a unique mark on the tree next to him, then got on his horse and chased a few people straight away.

"Chu Haochen, who did you think captured these soldiers? Could it be that the prefect of Hu Yangcheng didn't find any clues about them?"

A sarcastic sneer appeared on Chu Haochen's face. Wouldn't he know?

It seems that someone's ambition is really not the slightest bit. I wonder how long this has been planned. Could it be...

Thinking of this, Chu Haochen and Lu Qingqing said that they should return to Beijing quickly and pass the news to Xiao Zimo, so they should take precautions as soon as possible, and at this time, they still didn't know what was going on with the emperor.

If it hadn't been for the unexpected hijacking of their grandfather's motorcade, it would have been difficult for them to discover this place. Otherwise, the man was so confident that he was waiting here.

I just don’t know if he is deployed elsewhere.

Soon the four masters and servants returned to their base in the village.

At this moment, Mr. Lu has not rested yet and has been waiting for Chu Haochen and Chu Haochen to come back.

"Back, back, King Chen and the others are back."

Cheng Yu and his guards were on patrol just now when they happened to see four figures coming back from a distance.

When Mr. Lu heard Cheng Yu's shout, he quickly stood up and walked towards the outside of the tent.

Chu Haochen turned over and dismounted, came to Lu Qingqing's side and held her firmly off the horse. The two looked at their grandfather in front of the tent and ran forward quickly.

"Grandpa, it's so late and you haven't rested yet?"

Mr. Lu looked at the two of them with his hands behind his back, but found nothing strange. He turned around and talked inside, then went back to the tent.

"Did you find anything this time?"

Chu Haochen and his wife sat across from Mr. Lu. They looked at each other and then said to their grandfather with a gloomy face:

"Grandpa, we explored the valley. It looks like a small village, but it is actually a military garrison. It has swallowed up at least 20,000 troops."

"what?"

Mr. Lu stood up suddenly and exclaimed!

Chu Haochen and Chu Haochen nodded seriously.

Mr. Lu walked back and forth in the big tent with his hands behind his hands, thinking gloomily...

"Have you made any changes when you return to Beijing this time?"

Chu Haochen told Mr. Lu everything that happened in the capital, and he saw that the old man's face was getting darker and darker!
