"Wang asks again, what are you willing to hand over?" A man with thick eyebrows and big eyes with Chinese characters asked solemnly.

The corporal chief of Jiaojia Village sitting opposite, holding a wooden teacup in his hand, groaned silently.

The man didn't urge him, he just turned his head and whispered to the clear man beside him.

Lu Nan looked at the person who spoke, then turned to look at Uncle Jiao, and then asked Tang Ying who was sitting beside her in a low voice: "Aying, why did the person who just emerged from the grass say that his surname is Wang? Asking Uncle Jiao to hand over the things left by his ancestors here, will he become like this?"

"Wang Mang usurped the throne, and then there was the Eastern Han Dynasty. His surname was Wang, and he led an army of thousands of people in the mountains. Sister, this is the connection. As for what they said, it should be that Wang Mang sat there. 13 years of Jiangshan." Tang Ying turned her head and approached Lu Nan's ear, and said softly.

Lu Nan was stunned, extremely puzzled: just based on the surname "Wang", can you think of the usurper Wang Mang?

Three hours ago, Lu Nan led a few brave young men in the village, including Jiao Yuan, and carefully opened a passage through the wolves still surrounding the entrance of the village with weapons and thick torches and left Jiaojia Village.According to Tang Ying's tips, she told the villagers where she had seen wolves in the past. After two hours, she found an army deep in the forest.

Although they didn't wear military uniforms, there seemed to be no generals in the army.But with so many thousands of people gathered together, and all of them are middle-aged men, how can it be explained that they are not the army?

So, when Lu Nan and a group of people returned to Jiaojia Village, hundreds of people followed behind them as tails.Among them was this man named Wang Yue, who was accompanied by a man who looked like a counselor.When Lu Nan first entered the village, she was very depressed. She once thought that she had attracted a group of unknown troops for Jiaojia Village, making the safety and fortune of the whole village unpredictable.

Later, Wang Yue, who entered the village, asked for the corporal chief of Jiaojia Village by name, saying that he had something important to discuss.They led hundreds of soldiers to drive away the wolves first, and then surrounded the small mountain village with men. Naturally, no one in this small village dared to say no to them.Uncle Jiao could only bring Wang Yue and the man who had been following him to his home to talk, hence the question just now.

As for why Lu Nan was there, in fact, she also heard Tang Ying say that she was not someone from Uncle Jiao, not even from Jiaojia Village, and should not stay in this room.But Wang Yue's counselor said with a half-smile, "We sincerely invite Brother Guan to discuss important matters," and prevented her from leaving.Seeing that Lu Nan was forced to stay behind, she asked her about the situation when she found Wang Yue and the group outside the village. Tang Ying didn't know what she planned to do, but she wanted to stay in the house.Wang Yue and his gang forced Lu Nan to stay, and there was no reason to refuse to accompany her younger brother Tang Ying.

Uncle Jiao, who had been sitting quietly with his head down in consideration, stroked his beard, raised his face to look at Wang Yue who was sitting opposite him, and said word by word: "My lord claims to be surnamed Wang, but the old man is incompetent. The 'King' that has been passed down from generation to generation, do you have proof?"

Wang Yue smiled calmly and nodded: "Of course." He tilted his head slightly, "Sir, bring the things to Mr. Jiao."

The Qinghuang man who had been sitting beside him raised his left arm slightly, and slowly took out a bright yellow kit from his sleeve pocket with his right hand. Wang Yue took it and handed it to Uncle Jiao.

Lu Nan poked her head out of curiosity, and Tang Ying tugged her shirt lightly. She quickly sat upright, raised her head to look at the beam, and then remained motionless.

However, Tang Ying saw the man who Wang Yue called "Zi Hui" diagonally opposite him, and glanced sideways with a slight smile.She seemed to be taken aback, and then looked at him lightly, with an indescribably subtle meaning in her eyes.

Putting Tang Ying's gaze into his eyes, Zihui's elegant face immediately showed some interest. He looked at Tang Ying with a slight smile, and said leisurely: "My lord, Zihui and these two Let's go out first, little brother? The scenery in the mountains is really interesting."

Wang Yue and Uncle Jiao were talking in a low voice, and they even made some strange gestures with their hands.He just waved his hand at Zihui, and went on with his own business.

The man stood up slowly, adjusted his clothes in a gentle manner, and then glanced at Lu Nan with a strange face, with a kind smile on his face: "Brother Guan, let's go out."

"Huh? Where are you going?" Lu Nan obviously didn't react.

Zihui was still smiling, and said lazily: "Hey, go out of the house. One of the brothers in my family is very fond of those little animals. He has some animals that children like. If you are unworthy, you can go find them. You two look. If you see someone you like, you can make a meeting ceremony."

Lu Nan was overjoyed, and immediately stood up, only to remember Tang Ying who was still sitting, she touched her nose, and gave her a flattering smile.Tang Ying shook her head at her, stood up too, stretched out her right hand to hold Lu Nan's left hand, and walked out the door.

×××

"Hey, what's your name? You can't just name Hui, right?" Lu Nan asked loudly from behind.

Tang Ying, who had been walking beside her, was silent, but the corners of her mouth were slightly raised.

The slender figure of the man who was ten steps away from the two of them seemed to be stiff for a moment, but soon returned to normal. Zi Hui. Brother Guan, Brother Tang, if you don't mind, you can call Bu Xiao brother."

Lu Nan's slightly dissatisfied voice immediately came: "Zhong Miao, Zhong Zihui, we don't know each other well..." She slightly lowered her head and asked Tang Ying beside her, "A Ying, don't let him take advantage of us for nothing! He It’s a good idea to call him elder brother, elder brother.”

These words were clearly meant for Zhong Miao. Lu Nan smiled, as if talking to Tang Ying, and then raised her voice to the people in front of her, "What are you going to show us?" Striding to catch up with Zhong Miao's footsteps, he approached him and bumped his shoulder casually, "Hey, by the way, your brother is weird? Do you bring small animals with you everywhere? And there seem to be a lot of samples, Can you pick whatever you want?"

Zhong Miao smiled and shook her head: "I'll see you soon, and you will naturally know that you are unworthy and not boasting."

While talking, the three of them had already arrived at a relatively spacious place in Jiaojia Village, but there were piles of firewood piled up here, and no one was seen at all.

Lu Nan opened his eyes and looked around to make sure he didn't see anyone. With annoyance on his face, he said angrily, "Zhong Miao, are you kidding us?"

With a helpless expression on his face, Zhong Miao stretched out his hand and pointed to a certain place: "Hey, it's there. Brother Guan, you need to be more patient."

Tang Ying, who had been so quiet as if she didn't exist, stared at the place Zhong Miao said.At the edge of this clearing, there is a place where several luxuriant elm trees grow close together, and the gaps around are filled with the most common thorny wild jujube trees in the mountains.Even at such a close distance, it was impossible to see what was behind the tree.

Zhong Miao frowned slightly when she saw Tang Ying looking at the direction he was pointing at, and said with a shallow smile, "Brother Tang, I'm only waiting here for a while, and I'll retreat soon. There is no conflict between Jiaojia Village and my son. We won't do harm to the people in the village." He turned his head to face Shang Lu Nan's puzzled expression, and couldn't help but smile deeper, "Brother Guan, my brothers are just a dozen steps away. You and Brother Tang have to come with me Or should I ask someone to bring things out and you two will pick them here?"

"Will it be troublesome to take it out? If it's not easy to take us there, if it's convenient...bring it here?" Lu Nan said hesitantly.

Zhong Miao leaned leaning on a pile of firewood, with a smile on his handsome face, and patted his palms.Hearing three soft sounds of "Pa Pa Pa Pa", three young men with bamboo cages of different sizes walked quickly out from behind the dense elm trees.They were all in civilian clothes, two of them were middle-aged men, and the other looked younger, probably two or three years older than Lu Nan.They all look very ordinary, belonging to the kind of public faces that are instantly forgotten.

The three came to stand in front of Zhong Miao, and then lowered their heads slightly in unison: "Mr. Zhong."

"Hey, put the cage in front of those two little brothers and let them pick out two. This is what the young master just agreed to send them off." Zhong Miao didn't move, but raised her eyebrows at Lu Nan and Tang Ying. jaw.

"Yes."

Six large or small bamboo cages were neatly placed in front of Lu Nan and Tang Ying.Lu Nan glanced at the people beside him, and squatted down to see what was inside from the gap in the bamboo cage.

I saw a small animal with gray fur in the first cage.She blinked her eyes, turned her head to look at Zhong Miao, and then looked at the other bamboo cages one by one, then stood up: "Aying, these five cages are really full of small animals."

"Why? Brother Guan didn't like it?" Zhong Miao raised his eyebrows.

Lu Nan rubbed his nose: "Uh, I don't really know the difference between these small animals. Deer and roe deer, cats and little tigers, in my opinion, there is no difference."

The veins on Zhong Miao's forehead twitched, and the corner of his mouth twitched and said, "Qingyuan, you took care of these. Please explain to Brother Guan what's in those cages."

The youngest-looking boy among the three took a step forward: "Yes."

"This cage is a fox that was born less than three months old, this is the offspring of a wolf that was only one month old, this is a tiger cub that was born on the [-]th day, and this is a puppy..." He really had a bamboo cage and a bamboo cage. Pointing to the past, when he reached the last one, he paused obviously, and said in one breath, "This one contains a little starling who can't fly yet."

Lu Nan was taken aback. She only saw that the first four were small animals, and she couldn't tell what kind of animal they were, so she didn't see the last two at all. There was a bird?

"Brother Guan, what do you want? The unscrupulous preface is still counting. You and Brother Tang are free to choose which one you choose. Although these animals are not very useful, these kings of the mountains..." He raised his sleeves and covered his mouth. With a cough, "Taming them to adults can still help with some things, and it's fun to raise them, isn't it?"

Wolves and tigers are okay, but foxes are reluctant. No one has ever heard that dogs and starlings are also kings, right?However, raising tigers and wolves... sounds really attractive.Lu Nan thought about it seriously, and said calmly: "Zihui, thank you here first. I want little wolf."

"I want to raise a cub." Tang Ying also echoed.

Zhong Miao's eyes indicated that the boy named Qingyuan reluctantly handed over two bamboo cages to Lu Nan.

Lu Nan tilted her head and whispered to Tang Ying: "Aying, I heard that mynah can talk after being trained. It's quite fun. It's a pity that I like little wolf better, so I can't be too greedy..."

So Tang Ying was stunned for a moment, then she raised her head and said to Zhong Miao very naturally: "Mr. Zhong, it's probably useless for you to hold that bird, why don't you give it to us to play with?"

The corner of Zhong Miao's mouth twitched again: Who said it's useless?Who are these people...

It's useless, do you want more? !This is what I spent a lot of time raising!The boy named Qingyuan glared at Tang Ying.
