sinking into sand

Double thorn wild flower, Xun Er.

Yu Sha exhausted all his strength, trying to connect this word to Xun Er, but in the end, he didn't quite understand it.

He exhausted all his imagination and reluctantly accepted that there was another very creative person in this world who also took the name Xun Er.

The same name and surname, although it is a bit strange to be called Xun Er, but it is also reasonable, right?

All of Yu Sha's reasonable imaginations about this matter collapsed when he actually saw a video of that girl Xun Er in a certain cell in the women's prison.

He looked at the girl whose hair and face were messy and messy, but whose eyes were clear and bright, and even looked back at him with aftertaste.Completely speechless.

Who the hell is Xun Er?Damn it.

Yu Sha used all his strength to control his urge to go crazy, and violently removed the lock of the single cell where he was staying in Xun Er.There was a lot of movement, and it was hard to say whether there was any element of venting anger in this action.

Xun Eryi didn't recognize him and Guan Lan, but he did recognize the man in black who came to rescue her.When Yu Sha forcibly broke the lock, she leaned to the side very vigilantly, gave the man in black a look, and asked, "Old Zhou, who are they?"

"Who am I?" Yu Sha laughed angrily at her quack question, "Who the hell do you say I am?"

Hearing his voice on Xun Er, he shuddered in disbelief at first, then blinked frantically, and then tears burst out of his eyes.With a cry of surprise, brother, he jumped up like a rabbit, only to rush into Yu Sha's arms.

Seeing the two drops of cat urine on her face now, Yu Sha realized that he felt a little relieved besides being upset, but as expected, most of his worries were worse.He opened his arms, let Xun Er pounce on her, and quickly glanced at her body calmly.

He didn't suffer any injuries, but seemed to be a little heavier, his arms were stronger than before, and he grew taller.

He let Xun Er hug her for a while, and waited for the surprise of the long-lost reunion to subside a little, then pinched the back of her neck with his hands and pulled her away a little, raised his eyebrows to see her and said, "Double-thorned flower?"

Xun Er: ……………………………………

Old Zhou: "...cough."

Guan Lan watched the brother and sister exchange feelings for a while, looked at the sky, went up and patted Xun Er on the head, and changed the subject for her: "Go back first."

As soon as he made a sound, Xun Er recognized who it was, and immediately exclaimed again, "Sister-in-law!"

Old Zhou:! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

Yu Sha: "...cough."

Yu Sha: "All right, all right, let's go first."

The group of people stopped delaying immediately and left the prison along the route they had hoped for.

Of course, this process was not without episodes. For example, when they climbed over the wall, a certain lady with two thorns said that she could not do light work and asked her brother to hug her.

Yu Sha: "Hey, martial arts are unparalleled, and you can't even do light work?"

Old Zhou: "... Cough, that's actually..."

Yu Sha: "Shut up." Seven-one-zero! Five'eight*eight? Five-nine[zero"

Old Zhou: "..."

Xun Er: ……………

Yu Sha: "Would you like to talk, Double Thorn Blossom?"

Xun Er:! ! ! ! !

Guan Lan looked at the sky again, and said that he wanted the two brothers and sisters to continue to communicate with each other. He was afraid that they would have to confess that they were here, so he took the initiative to hug Xun Er and use his lightness kung fu to cross the wall.

Seeing this, Yu Sha had no choice but to shut up, and turned out together.

When the street was at its darkest in the early morning, Yu Sha and Guan Lan ran out of the inn, not planning to go back for a while.Now that there are more people named Xun Er and Lao Zhou, it is not convenient to find a place to stay.

Yu Sha held back his disgust and glanced at Lao Zhou, and said unwillingly: "You came to rescue Xun Er today, where is the stronghold in the city?"

Lao Zhou didn't dare to say anything when he was disgusted. After all, when he came to rescue someone, he met his brother and sister-in-law, who were better than him.When asked, he had no choice but to lead them the way honestly.

Their base is an ordinary bungalow in the civilian area of ​​Daocheng.There is no curfew in Daocheng, but it is convenient for them to move.When the group of them entered the house, Lao Zhou lit the candles, and Yu Sha scanned the whole room at a very fast speed, and saw a few pieces of letter paper spread out on the table in this house very sharply.During the time they went north, the most they saw were bandits and water bandits from all over the country, and they knew a lot of signs used for communication between these villages.

Yu Sha stared at the mark on the paper, and quickly pointed it out: "Hanhaozhai, are you bandits?"

When Xun Eryi heard that her brother had accurately reported her current location, she immediately fell silent, not daring to vent her anger.

Old Zhou saw that Yu Sha was shrewd and looked like he was about to die, and knew that there was nothing to hide at this point, so he generously admitted: "Yes, we are bandits, and my name is Zhou Qu."

It's about last fall.

"I used to be a tenant who ran away from the fields. The world is too chaotic. While some people escaped, they were arrested for military service and killed. In fact, it was a gang of people." Zhou Qu poured a cup of tea for everyone, and explained briefly. things. "When I met Miss Sien, I was planning to join the refugee army that is now rebelling. It was a coincidence. I happened to save a child in Hanhao Village. When sending the child back, Miss Sien said , if you want to live, do you want to go west with them?"

Yu Sha carefully observed Zhou Qu's expression, and judged that he was not lying.He turned his head and asked Xun Er, "What about you, what happened to Han Hao Village?"

Xun Er saw that he didn't look too angry, so he hesitated to tell the truth.

Xun Er didn't fall into the bandit by himself alone. To be more precise, the entire Hanhao Village was written by Si En.

Last fall, the water bandits in the south were already very aggressive at that time.Although there was no formal uprising on the surface, it was almost the same.There is so much good land in the Central Plains that there are not even people who cultivate it.

When he saw so many barren fields, Si En was moved.

"Sister Si En said that the world is chaotic, and it is not safe to take refuge in anyone. It is better to find a remote place with land in hand, gather some people who have nowhere to go, and live life first." Xun Er tried her best to put her and Si En together En running to become a bandit is a fair description.

As soon as Yu Sha raised his eyebrows, he knew that the girl hadn't told the whole truth, and she was still pretending to be nice to him.Debunk her mercilessly: "What are you pretending to do with me, you and Sin, and add Lujiang. Three girls, it's good to keep yourself, how can you become a bandit? Keeping the land and hoarding the land, that's a big deal. For armed conflict, tell me, who did you go to?"

Xun Er knew he couldn't hide it, so he blinked and replied, "Sister Chu Ruo."

Yu Sha suddenly realized that it was really her.

Guan Lan knew Chu Ruo, and she still remembered the lawsuit where Yu Sha taught her hidden weapon kung fu, so she was a little distracted when she heard the name.

Xun Er said Chu Ruo's name, and the rest was easy to say.

Chu Ruo is different from Si En and the others. They have kung fu, and they are used to the world and know many people.When Si En came to her to talk about it through Xun Er, Chu Ruo was a little hesitant, but soon she realized that it was actually feasible.

One is that even if they don't do it, the world will soon have nowhere to go.As the flames of war spread, so did soon lucrative livelihoods.They don't have a father and brother family to rely on. At this time, they can only rely on marriage if they want to find someone to go to.Even if you want to be an aunt on the mountain, it is still precarious, and it is common for temples to be robbed.

The second is that it is really an advantage to be able to work hard in this year.

After several days of earnest persuasion by Si En, Chu Ruo began to accept that she was not used to it. A woman like her who has spent most of her life groping in the gutter, in this world, can rely on her little kung fu to transform into a woman. Become strong.

Yu Sha heard the sound of the strings and understood the elegant meaning. Hearing what Xun Er said here, and combining what they had seen and heard in the past few days, he could probably guess what they did next.

Even if Chu Ruo's kung fu can frighten many Xiao Xiao away, it is too feminine to use poison and medicine to make hidden weapons.They couldn't get much advantage in the area near the Lijiang River, so Sien made a quick decision, whether to go west along the Yongjia Ancient Road or go to the mountains. The land is sparsely populated, and it is far away from the flames of war. He can always find a place for them to survive.

Thinking about this, Yu Sha frowned, remembered some questions, and asked: "...I remember that although Hanhao Village is not big, there are still more than a dozen households. Where did you recruit these people? And..."

Yu Sha raised his eyes to look at Zhou Qu, and said, "With Mr. Zhou's martial arts, it seems that he is not just a tenant."

Zhou Qu was called out by name and used his honorific title. He smiled a little embarrassedly and replied, "I... I am indeed not an ordinary tenant. I used to be a disciple of the outer sect of the Jinzhan Pavilion."

This time Yu Sha was really shocked.He carefully read Zhou Qu up and down again, confirming that he really did not have this person in his memory, and then said suspiciously: "...I don't know when Mr. Zhou entered Jinzhan Pavilion?"

Zhou Qu rubbed his nose and said embarrassedly: "I... I didn't enter, alas... A few years ago, there were several villages around the Lijiang River where people from Jinzhan Pavilion came, saying that they could teach kung fu by paying a little money. To be able to receive the title of an outer disciple... I practiced with them for a few years at that time."

After hearing this, Yu Sha immediately turned to look at Guan Lan to confirm what, Guan Lan received his gaze and nodded slightly.

Seeing him nodding, Yu Sha turned over the martial arts issue, and asked the next question straightforwardly: "Then Mr. Zhou, why are you willing to follow Si En and the others?"

Yu Sha asked this very bluntly, Xun Er was a little frightened when he heard it, and quietly pulled Yu Sha's clothes, but Yu Sha ignored her.

Zhou Qu rubbed his nose in embarrassment, remained silent for a while, and then said: "...I'm a rough person, and I don't have any means to make my family live a better life. A bad life, to put it bluntly, is to sacrifice your life for someone else. Stuttering. But at least... At least I gave my life to Miss Sien..."

When he said this, he hesitated for a while, moved his throat, and finally finished speaking.

"My daughter can live without being ruined."

Yu Sha was speechless for a while.

Zhou Qu, a man of five seniors and three rough men, said these things in front of him, which undoubtedly revealed his humbleness and his small hopes that seemed very out of date in this troubled world.

In troubled times, children with parents are naturally stronger than those without parents, but they are actually limited in strength.Since it is not fresh to change children and eat, let alone sell children and daughters.Boys are more expensive than girls, and maybe they can sell a lot of strength.If a girl wants to live out, she can only depend on her fate.Even if they find a place to go to, it's hard to say that they are not mermaids.

Yu Sha was suddenly very annoyed at his attitude towards him, he shouldn't have treated this person so harshly.

"I'm sorry." Yu Sha apologized: "I care about my sister so much, I offended you."

When he apologized like this, Zhou Qu felt embarrassed again, and waved his hands repeatedly to say it was okay.

After such an encounter, his desire to continue interrogating him became much weaker. He turned his head to look at Xun Er, and said expressionlessly, "Wai Tiao in the waves?"

Xun Er: ...

Xun Er: "...can swim."

Yu Sha nodded, and continued to the next question: "Double Thorn Crazy Flower?"

Xun Er: "...Emei Ci, I learned from the people in the village."

Yu Sha: "All-powerful, unparalleled in martial arts, in a troubled world?"

Xun Er: "... Sister Si En said that this is an exaggeration necessary for external publicity."

Yu Sha: "It's an exaggeration to be resourceful, right, I understand."

Xun Er:! ! ! ! ! !

Xun Er: "You call me stupid!!!!"

Yu Sha suppressed Xun Er's claws that were scratching at his face with one hand, and gave Guan Lan a look: "Come out with me."

Guan Lan followed Yu Sha to the outside of the house, and Yu Sha cast a glance at Zhou Qu in the house, and asked, "Are you sure you are right, it can interest you, it doesn't seem like you just studied for a few years with that kind of scammer people."

"He has a good foundation, and his kung fu is just like that." Guan Lan said, "He has a very high level of comprehension. When fighting with him, he can improve quickly."

With these two sentences, Yu Sha really put Zhou Qu in a safe range for the time being.

Even if his expression changed slightly, Guan Lan could guess what he was thinking, and said, "No matter how worried you are, you should trust your sister."

"I'm used to it." Yu Sha replied, and his eyes fell on Xun Er who was talking to Zhou Qu in the room, "I thought I was going to plan for her for the rest of my life."

As soon as Yu Sha finished speaking, his tense nerves were suddenly prickled, a little numb.

In the days since he came back from Lange, he walked half of the Yongjia Ancient Road and looked at the devastated land, and he gradually became numb.It wasn't until seeing Xun Er today, and seeing her living in a way he hadn't expected in this world, that he suddenly had the real feeling of returning to the Central Plains.

Times change and things are impermanent, but luckily people change too, so I always try my best to survive.

Guan Lan looked at his eyes on Xun Er, not knowing whether he liked it or was angry, so he frowned and stretched out his hands to pinch Yu Sha's face.Yu Sha let him pinch for a while before he realized that he still had something to do before he encountered Xun Er tonight.

He grabbed Guan Lan's hand and said, "We have to go to the inn, I have something to check."
