Shen Yijin took Shi Nanyue to the city again, and found the couple in Luoshan Village.

When the couple saw Shen Yijin, they greeted him familiarly, "Mr. Shen, you are here. Is the amount you want this time still the same?"

Shen Yijin waved her hand, said with a faint smile, "No, I'm not here to buy meat this time, but I want to ask Brother Luo for a favor."

"Oh, young master, you said, as long as I can help, I will try my best to help." Luo Shan patted his chest and said very straightforwardly.Luoshan is his name.

Shen Yijin said: "There are so many people talking, can Brother Luo take a moment to speak?" After speaking, he glanced at Shi Nanyue beside him again, and said to him: "Wait for me a moment."

"Okay, I'll wait for you." Shi Nanyue nodded.

Pulled aside by Shen Yijin, Luo Shan asked curiously, "Is there anything Mr. Shen needs my help for?"

Shen Yijin glanced around, leaned close to Luo Shan's ear, and whispered to him a few words, Luo Shan's face changed more and more as he listened, and finally his brows were tightly wrinkled, and his expression became very serious.

Taking a step back, Shen Yijin's eyes were burning, and she said in a deep voice, "I wonder if Big Brother Luo will help with this?"

Luo Shan looked at Shen Yijin steadfastly, as if confirming whether what he said was true or not, after pondering for a while, he asked: "Mr. Shen, are you serious about what you said?"

Shen Yijin said: "Naturally, it is true. If there is a false statement, it will be punished by lightning."

Hearing this, Luo Shan took a deep look at Shen Yijin, then turned back to look at his daughter-in-law who had been smiling at him all the time, seeing her thinner figure and aging face due to the hard life, and her body covered with patches. Clothes, and recalling the triumphant appearance of those bandits who repeatedly robbed the family's money, his hand on the side was tightly clenched into a fist, he closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his eyes were full of determination.

He said: "Okay, Mr. Shen, I will help you with this favor."

Shen Yijin smiled, bowed slightly towards Luoshan, cupped his hands in a bow, and said, "Thank you, Brother Luo, for your kindness."

Luo Shan rubbed his head, smiled innocently, and said, "I just don't want my wife and son to suffer any more. If those people don't get rid of them, Luojia Village will never be able to return to its former state. Sooner or later, We're going to give up our home."

After a pause, Luo Shan said again: "I'm going to tidy up the stall. For details, please come home with me, young master, and continue talking."

Shen Yijin smiled and nodded.

Back to Shi Nanyue, Shen Yijin told him: "We will go to Luojia Village with Brother Luo in a while."

Shi Nanyue glanced at the strong man who was cleaning up the stall, and said in a low voice: "Xiao Jin, are you sure he is trustworthy?"

Shen Yijin's eyes fell on Luoshan, and he said unhurriedly: "Luojia Village is at the foot of Yunshan Mountain. Before those bandits appeared, the villagers relied on the mountain for food, so they must be able to go up the mountain to get some wild game. The people who are most familiar with Yunshan are the villagers of Luojia Village, Big Brother Luo is from Luojia Village, his ancestors have lived in Luojia Village for generations, and he is just an ordinary butcher, it is credible for him to say that he is willing to help."

Having said that, Shen Yijin paused for a moment, her eyes became a little cold, "But just in case, no matter whether he agrees or not today, I plan to ask you to find someone to monitor him until the bandits are eradicated. of."

Hearing this, Shi Nanyue looked at Shen Yijin's eyes with a few more smiles, nodded and said: "It should be so." This was also his thought.

While they were talking, Luo Shan had already packed up the stall and was moving the unsold meat to the cart. He carried everything by himself and put it into the cart. He went back and forth several times, but nothing Let his wife touch the slightest bit, and when everything was sorted out, the two of them looked at each other and smiled tacitly, which was very warm.

Luo Shan said: "Young Master Shen, you can go."

Shen Yijin and Shi Nanyue smiled and followed up.

Luojia Village is far away, and it takes an hour to walk back from the city, but fortunately, the road is easy to walk, so it won't be too tiring.

Walking to the entrance of the village, Shen Yijin saw the broken monument standing beside it with the words "Luoshan Village" engraved on it. Luoshan said with a wry smile: "Five years ago, bandits who only dared to rob passers-by suddenly came from They swarmed down from Yunshan Mountain and looted the whole village ferociously, and this stone tablet was broken at that time."

The timing is right.

Shen Yijin and Shi Nanyue looked at each other. Five years ago, it was when Rong Xiucheng appeared.

Luo Shan led them into the village. Shen Yijin looked around and found that there were not many people in the whole village. There were still vegetables in the fields on both sides of the road, but no one took care of them, and some of them were completely rotten in the fields. .

Luo Shan told them: "Because bandits frequently descended to rob the mountain, almost all the people in the village have left. There are only a few people left, but they won't stay for long."

Luo Shan said, and brought them to a house, which was his home.

Shen Yijin looked at the house in front of her. It was a brick and tile house with Spring Festival couplets pasted on the door. On the surface, it should not be regarded as a poor family.

Luo Shan opened the door and said, "Young Master Shen, please come in."

Shen Yijin and Shi Nanyue walked in as they said, but found that the inside was not as good as it looked from the outside. There were only a few dilapidated benches in the main room, and nothing else. Even the teacups were missing corners.

Mrs. Luo went to boil water, poured them each a cup of tea, and then went back to the house and left. She probably knew that they had something to discuss.

Shen Yijin drank the tea, and then asked, "Brother Luo, where's Xiaobao?"

Luo Shan sighed and said, "I was sent to live with my cousin's house in Ling County. When the bandits came last time, they almost hurt Xiaobao. I was really scared."

Shen Yijin put down her cup, and said in a deep voice, "Brother Luo, the government is determined to suppress the bandits this time. As long as you are willing to help, you will get your due reward after the suppression of the bandits."

Luo Shan waved his hand: "I don't care if I get paid or not, as long as I can get rid of these inhuman bandits, I'll be satisfied." After a pause, he doubted again: "But Mr. Shen, these Didn’t bandits have always been blessed by the government to do such crimes? How could the government…?”

Shen Yijin pointed her finger upwards, and said slowly: "Because the higher-ups have sent someone here, the government will not dare to interfere any more."

Luo Shan suddenly realized, but after a while, he asked curiously again: "How can Mr. Shen know so clearly?"

Shen Yijin pulled Shi Nanyue aside, and introduced: "This is my cousin, and a general was sent to suppress the bandits. My cousin happened to be working under that general. This time, it was the general who said that he needed it. A few people who are familiar with Yunshan lead the way, I just remembered you."

He did not reveal Shi Nanyue's identity.

Only then did Luo Shan look at Shi Nanyue. He saw that Shi Nanyue was extraordinary, his eyes were piercing, and his whole body revealed a strong aura, which made people instinctively feel fear, and he believed it in his heart.

He clenched his fist hard, and said seriously: "Even so, I will try my best to help."

Shen Yijin turned her head, smiled at Shi Nanyue, and signaled that he could speak.

Shi Nanyue shook Shen Yijin's hand under the table, and smiled back at him, then turned his head and looked at Luoshan, and said in a low voice: "We have a topographic map of Yunshan in our hand, which is based on the bandit's The confession is drawn, you don’t have much to do, just help us confirm the authenticity, and on the day of attacking the mountain, please lead the way and lead a pair of soldiers up the mountain, we will do our best to ensure your safety.”

Luo Shan nodded with a serious expression.

Afterwards, Shi Nanyue told Luo Shan that he would leave Luojia Village with them today and go to the garrison.

Luo Shan also agreed.

After handing over the Luoshan couple to He Zhang, Shi Nanyue carefully instructed He Zhang to do a few things, and then returned home with Shen Yijin.

At that time, it was already Xu time, the sky was completely dark, the night sky above gradually revealed a small half of the moon, and the stars also appeared. Looking up, there are vast stars, which is extremely spectacular.

The two walked under the moonlight, and the moonlight shone on them, giving off a faint white light.

Turning her head, Shen Yijin looked at Shi Nanyue beside her, and couldn't help but want to get closer to him, and get closer to him, and he did the same, and the distance between the two was shortening little by little.

Noticing Shen Yijin's behavior, Shi Nanyue took his hand out of his heart, made an excuse, and said with a smile: "Xiao Jin is scared? Don't be afraid, I will lead you away, so you don't have to be afraid."

Being held by the hand, Shen Yijin's cheeks flushed, feeling sweet and happy in his heart, he was just looking for a reason for Shi Nanyue to hold him for a longer time, when he heard Shi Nanyue's words, his eyes lit up, taking advantage of the trend Then he admitted: "I was a little scared...now it's much better."

When she spoke, Shen Yijin was so ashamed that her ears were flushed red, but fortunately it was already night, and the surroundings were dark, with only a little moonlight, so she couldn't see his expression clearly.

Hearing this, the smile on the corner of Shi Nanyue's mouth deepened, he held Shen Yijin's hand even tighter, his eyes were full of tenderness and satisfaction.

Feeling the temperature of the other party's palm, the heat on Shen Yijin's face could not go down, he hesitated for a long time, and said in a relaxed tone as much as possible: "By the way, you call me Xiaojin like Brother Lin, why don't I call you too Brother Shi?"

His heart was pounding, and he peeked at Shi Nanyue from the corner of his eyes, trying to see his expression clearly, but it was too dark, so he could barely see that the corner of Shi Nanyue's mouth was raised.

...If you're smiling, it means you don't object, right?

When Shi Nanyue heard it, he naturally agreed and was very happy. He resisted the urge to hold Shen Yijin into his arms, and just smiled and said: "I was a little older than you, and you can call me big brother." ’” he added, “I like it when you call me that, too.”

In the last sentence, Shi Nanyue seemed to be saying a confession of love, with a very gentle and tender tone.

After hearing this, Shen Yijin's face turned even redder, and he almost blurted out the words 'I like you', but he held back.He still doesn't dare to express his intentions.

Shen Yijin secretly told herself, wait a little longer, when he goes to the capital, when he can stand shoulder to shoulder with Shi Nanyue, then he will convey his intention well.
