Brother, did you confess today?

When leaving Xincheng, General Qi led his officers and soldiers out again, saying that because of the turmoil, there were many bandits and bandits, and there was even an uprising in one place.

Of course, it was quickly suppressed, but this is enough to explain the chaos in the world.

The news in the capital is vague, and people dare not stand in line outside. Everyone tacitly lives according to the old way, but it will not be too long to think about it.

Along the way, there are still many people fleeing to the south, but the north is becoming more and more uneven, and the rogues are also a big problem. Some villages have been destroyed, and the remaining people will naturally find a way to find a way out for themselves. go south.

Some looked at Xu Xiangfei and Zhu Xuguang's attire and knew that they were not very short of money, so they came up to ask for a stutter.

For women and the elderly with children, Xu Xiangfei and Zhu Xuguang will give some more or less. This is also the default rule in the arena. Although not everyone will abide by it, most of the wealthy people in the family will not refuse, and they don’t need much. , at least let people survive the day ahead.

As for those men, they naturally don't care.

The two of them had never experienced this before. The most serious one was probably the flood in the south of the Yangtze River. But when the refugees fled to Liuzhou, most of them already had a place to go. They had never seen the scene of fleeing before them.

Xu Xiangfei looked at it, and suddenly sighed, but he didn't know what he was sighing. He just looked back at Zhu Xuguang: "Although I didn't like war before, I never thought about it."

It seems that because of his skills, people like him don't seem to care much about wars. If they hate fighting for power and profit, they simply choose to stay away.

But in this world, there are still a lot of ordinary people.

Zhu Xuguang had seen this before, but at that time, he was young, and his heart was terrified, so it was difficult for him to have other thoughts. When he grew up, he felt that the war was not good.

It's not that he's completely anti-war, but he just doesn't like unnecessary and excessive disturbance of the ordinary life in the world.

In the scorching summer, many people chose to rest under the shade of the trees when they walked to the woods. They all carried swords, so they didn't intend to get too close, so as not to cause panic.

But when the two horses passed by, they still attracted a lot of attention.

Changning is just a small place, and most people make a living by fishing. Because it is remote, it is still relatively quiet now.

After the two came in, there were still many people they knew saying hello: "Yanzi Xiaozhu is back!"

The one who called them was a young woman with a blue turban and coarse clothes. She was named Sun He. She lived at the foot of the mountain. She used to know Xu Xiangfei and Zhu Xuguang very well. Bring something back from outside.

Most of the people here are simple and kind, maybe because it is too remote, the defense between men and women is not as serious as other places.

The last time they came back, they were still facing pursuit, so they didn't have time to catch up with them, but now they are not in a hurry.

Sun He was sitting in front of the house door, with his sleeves rolled up, holding a machete in one hand, and supporting a big fish that had been eviscerated in the other. The fish were regarded as fish pieces of about the same size, and the chopping boards stained with blood foam were hacked muffled.

Xu Xiangfei also squatted down to look: "This fish is so fresh."

"That's right, I only called in the morning." Sun He took a large ceramic bowl from his feet, pulled a large bowl of fish into it, and stuffed it into Xu Xiangfei's hand, "Come on! Take it back and cook it!"

Xu Xiangfei was caught off guard by a hand, and almost didn't squat down: "...Sister He, which of us looks like we can light a fire and cook?"

Sun He glanced at him in disgust, then raised his head to look at Zhu Xuguang: "Look at you two! How old are you, you can't even light a fire and cook, and your brother-in-law cooks my house! Forget it, come tonight I eat at home!"

She knew that Xu Xiangfei and Zhu Xuguang traveled the rivers and lakes, so she didn't ask any questions, so as not to make it difficult for the two of them, and she didn't want to be involved in some things, so she waved her hand and wanted them to leave.

Xu Xiangfei also asked one more question: "Sister He, has my master come back these days?"

After Han Deyu left with Lin Yichun, there was no news, and Xu Xiangfei didn't reply to his letters. If it was any other time, they wouldn't care.

But now that the world is not peaceful, Lin Yichun is still carrying the name of a fugitive, so he must be worried?

Sun He shook his head: "Master Han hasn't come back yet. Speaking of which, I haven't seen him for a long time. Alas, you master and apprentice are like this, coming and going without a trace."

Xu Xiangfei nodded, and asked again: "What about Uncle Nan?"

Sun Heqi said: "I don't know Uncle Nan, you don't know? How could Uncle Nan leave? Isn't he setting up a stall at the foot of your mountain, but he hasn't opened a stall recently, but I still see him coming out from time to time to buy some Roast the chicken and go back to eat."

Xu Xiangfei smiled, got up and rummaged through their bags, and found jewelry from Zhuyu Pavilion, including jade bracelets and earrings, wrapped in cloth and put them in Sun He's hand: "Sister He, I opened a shop , but it’s not mine now, but luckily I can get some things out, I think these earrings and bracelets suit you very well, and I’ll dress up when I go out with my brother-in-law later!”

Sun He didn't refuse either, and teased: "Now I've grown my skills!"

Xu Xiangfei pulled Zhu Xuguang away with a smile, and Sun He looked at their backs: "Oh, Xiao Zhu still doesn't like to talk."

The two have good ears, and Xu Xiangfei laughed first when he heard this: "Sister He talks about you every time she sees you!"

Zhu Xuguang was helpless, he was used to it, and besides, he would not chat with people like this at all, it was okay with Xu Xiangfei, after all, he was talking to his brother who had always talked a lot, but if he was talking to other people, he felt that he would only make people uncomfortable.

Seeing that he was about to reach Uncle Nan's yard, Xu Xiangfei gently tugged at Zhu Xuguang's cuff, and seeing him looking over, he couldn't help but smile again.

The younger brother has serious eyebrows and eyes, and he doesn't like to smile usually, so he is naturally not easy to provoke, but when he looks at him, he is always so focused, his eyes are like pools of water, and he can only see his shadow.

Xu Xiangfei pinched his face and pulled him.

Zhu Xuguang: "?"

What happened brother?

Although the two have a good understanding, sometimes they still can't understand what the other is doing.

Xu Xiangfei withdrew his hand: "I heard from Master that Uncle Nan came here immediately when he knew you were here. Do you remember what kind of temper you were at that time? You grabbed me and wouldn't let go. He didn't take a good look at me, Uncle Nan thought you were having a bad time living under the fence, so he wanted to take you away."

Zhu Xuguang pursed his lips, lowered and raised his eyes, but did not speak.

"But that's because Uncle Nan just saw you ignoring me during the day. As for me, I'm not very good-tempered, and I like to provoke you. But Master said, Uncle Nan has already made plans to borrow a sum of money to take you away. Find a hidden place to teach you martial arts, but at night you find that you have nightmares, you can only feel better next to me."

"He couldn't bear it anymore."

Xu Xiangfei actually didn't know whether Han Deyu's words were true or false, but it was not bad at all, at least Uncle Nan could take Zhu Xuguang away directly at that time, but he still stayed in Changning, after so many years of peaceful days .

He said this not because he wanted to do anything, but Zhu Xuguang was very stubborn and couldn't speak well. Uncle Nan obviously cared about Zhu Xuguang a lot, but he often forced Zhu Xuguang to read military books when they were young.

Alas, thinking about it is really a headache, Xu Xiangfei is afraid that they will quarrel.
