I've been reborn, who still wants to be a cowardly little white flower?

"A Yuan, can I come in?" Jiang Yuan bought some clothes from the clothing store and had just put them on when Xie Yunxiao's voice was heard outside.

"can."

Xie Yunxiao was holding a tray with two side dishes and two steamed buns on it. After putting the things down, he slyly took out an oil-paper bag from his arms and opened it to reveal braised beef in soy sauce.

"I just bought it outside. I asked them to send the braised beef outside the city. I left some for you. Come and eat."

Jiang Yuan sat down at the table and picked up a piece of beef with his hands. "Mm, it's delicious. Fourth brother, have you eaten it?"

"I have eaten. You should eat something quickly. You have been traveling all night and haven't had a good meal for several days."

Jiang Yuan didn't care anymore. He was really hungry. He ate like a whirlwind and said, "I'm anxious." There was something stuffed in his mouth, so he couldn't speak clearly.

Xie Yunxiao poured her a cup of tea, "Slow down, don't choke, I know you are anxious, I am anxious too.

We probably got the news later than them, Zichang should be able to come up with a way to deal with it, and the emperor must have known about it and will have a plan to deal with it."

Jiang Yuan swallowed the food in his mouth and drank a sip of water, "I'm not worried about the food problem, I'm worried about other troubles.

We encountered a robbery on the way, but after we arrived, we never encountered any assassination attempts again. I have always felt uneasy.

Now that I think about it, the killer might be waiting for a disaster to happen when everyone is busy and relaxed, and then they can launch a surprise attack.

Look at the rain, it has not stopped since yesterday. I'm afraid the situation over there is not optimistic."

Xie Yunxiao looked outside the door and couldn't help but sigh. He once led his troops to the south during a rainy season, and it rained non-stop.

"We will set out early tomorrow morning. At our speed, we will be able to reach Zhuo'an in the afternoon. If they are not in Zhuo'an, then we will have to split into two groups, one going up and the other going down. After all, they could be in any of these four counties."

Jiang Yuan quickly finished the food on the table, leaving nothing even for the soup.

They set out early in the morning. After having a full meal yesterday, the soldiers were in much better spirits.

We rode at full speed all the way. The water level of the Heihe River rose and flooded many places. We looked at the lonely village with half of the walls submerged in water and no one in sight.

This is the area of ​​Zhuo'an. The villagers here should be relocated to the resettlement area.

Seeing that there were no civilians, Jiang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the work here was going very smoothly and the civilians had been resettled.

As for the flooded houses, we can repair them after the water level recedes and the rainy season is over.

The road was very muddy and in some places the water was very deep, so they were forced to slow down.

When we were about to enter the city, we could hear screaming in the distance through the rain.

Pulling the reins, the horse neighed and stopped. Someone ran out of the city and there was no guard at the city gate.

Jiang Yuan and Xie Yunxiao looked at each other, raised their whips, and ran towards the city gate.

The civilians who ran out saw the men dressed as soldiers and ran towards them, shouting, "There's a riot, there's murder, there's murder in the city~"

Jiang Yuan frowned, and he jumped off his horse, grabbed the people and asked, "Is the official in charge of flood control here?"

The common people were covered in blood, holding their injured arms, and after thinking for a while with panicked faces, they nodded continuously, "Yes, yes, yes, there is a Lord Jiang, and there is also a girl who gives out porridge in the city."

Jiang Yuan murmured to himself, "Qu Ying..."

Xie Yunxiao also ran over, and when he heard this, his mind buzzed.

"Where is Lord Jiang?" Xie Yunxiao asked.

"Dam, on the dam, the lord has been on the dam all the time." A citizen who came over later answered.

Jiang Yuan had already climbed onto his horse and shouted to Xie Yunxiao, "I'm going to the city to find Qu Ying."

Xie Yunxiao had also mounted his horse and turned his horse around, "I'm going to the dam."

With a shout of "Go", the team behind him automatically split into two teams, one team went into the city, and the other team followed Xie Yunxiao.

Although Qu Ying and Lu Zhu Chun Zhi were not very skilled in martial arts, they followed Jiang Yuan and learned seriously for a long time. Although they might not be able to use the moves yet, their physical fitness had improved a lot.

In addition to the hard work during this period, my physical fitness has improved dramatically.

It's impossible to fight alone, but three people can cooperate and fight with the thugs for a while.

Qu Ying was somewhat better. She had systematically learned a complete set of Baguazhang and had undergone many practical training sessions in the military camp. When fighting with the thugs, she was able to gain some advantages.

Luzhu and Chunzhi picked up big knives from the ground, and swung them around without any moves. They beat the master to death with their random punches, and the thugs did not dare to approach easily.

But in the end, they were unable to resist the thugs. The three of them had no idea how many times they had been hit, and the wounds on their bodies were too numerous to count.

The two shadow guards were also seriously injured, but they were still fighting hard, using all their strength to protect the three girls behind them.

Qu Ying was kicked out countless times, fell on the small stall cart by the wall, and rolled to the ground, watching a thug slashing at her with a long knife in his hand.

I thought, it’s too late. This death must be so ugly, with such disfigurement.

Just as she was about to close her eyes in despair, she heard the sound of countless horse hooves. For some reason, Qu Ying felt that it was her Ah Yuan who had come.

Jiang Yuan was riding in the front and saw the scene not far away: the green bamboo that kept rolling in the mud and water to avoid the danger, and the spring branches that were riding on the thugs and chopping with their eyes closed.

Qu Ying, who was kicked out and fell to the ground, and the thug in front of her who raised a long knife, were filled with anger.

The horse was galloping, Jiang Yuan drew his bow, and an arrow pierced the thug straight through his back, with such force that the man was carried flying.

Seeing who was coming, Qu Ying shouted, "A Yuan."

Jiang Yuan was already holding a long sword and stepping on the saddle. He flipped off the horse's back and landed on the ground. With a few swipes, he cleared out the thugs around the few people.

Lu Zhu saw Jiang Yuan and cried out in tears, "Girl."

Chunzhi also opened her eyes and saw the person who descended like a god.

"Aying." Jiang Yuan rushed to Qu Ying, helped her up worriedly, and put his hand on her arm, feeling blood all over it.

"injured?"

Qu Ying had a smile on her face. All her fear and terror disappeared. As long as Jiang Yuan was by her side, she felt that even if the King of Hell himself came, she would not die.
