Chapter 304 Looking Back

Zhao Qingtian must have heard Zhao Tian and Xiao Qing talk about Zheng Yang countless times before, and now she looked at Zheng Yang, looking a little excited.

"By the way, why are you here, and how did you save us?" Xiao Qing asked, knowing that Zheng Yang must have saved them.

"Before I heard someone say that someone used their wives and daughters in exchange for status. I thought it was you, so I followed to have a look. I didn't expect to see the city lord meeting Zhao Tian, ​​and later saw that he ordered to kill you, so I followed. Come up." Zheng Yang glanced at Zhao Tian and replied.

At this time, Zhao Tian was still standing there awkwardly, motionless.Xiao Qing didn't know that he had met Zheng Yang before. Seeing him standing there, she quickly said to him: "Brother Tian, ​​are you scared out of your wits? Look, Zheng Yang is back, she saved us .”

When Zhao Tian heard Xiao Qing call him that, he blushed and raised his head towards Zheng Yang and Xiao Qing, walking towards Zheng Yang and Xiao Qing, and said nonchalantly, "Hello Zheng Yang, you..."

Zheng Yang didn't say anything to Zhao Tian, ​​but just took a look at him and took Xiao Qing and Zhao Qingtian's hands and said, "You can't show up now, have you thought about what to do next?"

Seeing that the atmosphere of Zhao Tian and Zheng Yang was not right at all, Xiao Qing looked at Zhao Tian with some doubts, and when she heard Zheng Yang asking her this, she quickly said, "We thought The city lord will arrange a good place for us, but I didn't expect..., so now we don't know what to do."

After Xiao Qing finished speaking, she sighed forcefully.

"How long have you been out?" Zheng Yang looked at Zhao Qingtian and asked.

"It's been more than six years. The city lord has always treated us very well. I didn't expect to do this this time." Zhao Qingtian said, with tears in his eyes, as if he didn't believe this fact, and he seemed a little unwilling .

"Hehehe, you are still young, and you don't understand many things. Sometimes, people don't care about anything for their own benefit." After Zheng Yang finished speaking, he glanced at Zhao Tian again, and continued: " It seems that you will not be able to go to the place arranged by the city lord, and it is true that you should find a place to settle down as soon as possible."

Afterwards, Zheng Yang looked at the direction they left the city, and looked at the burnt marks left by those people on the ground, and said: "We have to leave here quickly, if these people don't go back, the city lord will definitely be suspicious." .Maybe I will come out to find you at that time, and it will be very troublesome.”

"Zheng Yang, thank you. Really, I don't know what to say. Thank you so much." Zhao Tian walked up to Zheng Yang and said.

"Okay, the matter is already like this, don't think so much. Let's go, let's go to another place." After Zheng Yang finished speaking, he took Xiao Qing and Zhao Qingtian's hands and walked down the mountain.

"Kiss, I figured it out." Xiao Wu wanted to show up after seeing Xiao Qing and Zhao Qingtian, but she never had a chance to say it. Now that Zheng Yang's business is done, she hastened to ask.

"Don't show up when you come out later, wait for us somewhere in front. I'm worried that if you suddenly appear beside them, you will scare them." Zheng Yang said.

"Okay, then I'll go there first." After Xiao Wo finished speaking, Zheng Yang felt his arm vibrate, and the bracelet that Xiao Wo had turned into disappeared.

"How do you know that city lord?" Zheng Yang asked Xiao Qing after letting Xiao Oh go.

"It's like this. About seven years ago, Brother Tian went out to buy food one day. He happened to meet the city lord who was hunted down and seriously injured, so he rescued him in a cave. After a long time, he was able to move around. Later We just found out that he is a city lord, and when he recovered, he said he would take us out of the cave." Xiao Qing said.

After a pause, Xiao Qing went on to say: "At that time, almost all the border areas were under martial law, and we hadn't gotten food for a long time. He said he would give us a stable life. We thought he was pretty good at the time, not to mention We saved him again, so he will not repay his kindness, so we followed him here under his persistence."

"Then how do you exchange your status with Xiao Qingtian?" Zheng Yang asked in confusion.

"This started three years ago. At that time, the high priest wanted to raise his illegitimate son to become the master of this city, so he was sent here, and he began to erode the power of the city master, slowly in many places. In this place, the city lord couldn't even get in the way. He discussed with Brother Tian, ​​and wanted to use the woman thing to attack the other party. So there was the previous thing." Xiao Qing said to Zheng Yang as she walked.

"Actually, the city lord has been very kind to us before this, including when he planned to deal with the deputy city lord, he also put a spell on Qingmei and Qingtian, so that the deputy city lord can't hurt them. I really didn't expect things to change. It's like this." After listening to Xiao Qing's narration, Zhao Tian added on the side.

At this time, his expression was a little numb, and there was some hatred in his eyes.

Zheng Yang felt that Zhao Tian was also very pitiful, so he sighed deeply in his heart.After understanding what happened, she could understand Zhao Tian's feelings when he decided to take his wife and daughter out after the city lord made his promise.Life on the border was already very difficult. They lived in caves without seeing the sun all day long, and they couldn't get much food in exchange. Unless they reached a certain level, no one would be willing to live like that.

Therefore, after getting along for a period of time, they developed a brotherly relationship with the city lord they rescued. They believed that he would be good to them, so they followed them here and lived a life without worries about food and clothing.Perhaps, if the so-called illegitimate child had not come here, the city lord would not have thought of betraying them after trying countless methods.They may really be able to live a life without worries about food and clothing.

But maybe, just maybe, that's not the case.After the city lord saw that they were valuable, he did not hesitate to use them as bait, so that after the deputy city lord fell to death, he wanted to kill them.At this point, the life-saving grace and brotherhood are gone.

In fact, in Zheng Yang's view, these things are quite normal.Having been a human being for two lifetimes, she has seen through life and death, as well as human nature.In the face of so-called interests, some people can even sell themselves.

"Okay, the past is over, maybe God will let you live some more hard days. So don't think too much about it, just live the future well." Zheng Yang said to Xiao Qing.

"There's nothing to think about, this time it's really too close. If it weren't for you, the three of us would be smashed to pieces by now." Xiao Qing looked at Zheng Yang with moist eyes and said.

While talking, Zheng Yang, Xiao Qing and others had already walked a long distance.From a distance, Zheng Yang felt that Xiaowu was not far in front, happily eating an unknown wild fruit.She smiled secretly in her heart, everyone's atmosphere was a bit dull at this time, if there were foodies joining, their mood would also improve.

There was just one thing that Zheng Yang didn't know how to explain.That is, Xiao Oh's current appearance is not as big as Zhao Qingtian's. How should she explain to Xiao Qing and others that she will not grow up?
"Kiss, you are here, sister Xiao Qing, hello!" Xiao Wo said happily when she saw Zheng Yang walking over with Xiao Qing and the others.Then he ran over quickly, as if he had been waiting for them here for a long time.

"This is?" Xiao Qing looked at Xiao Wu in front of her, and couldn't believe her eyes. Why did Xiao Wu's appearance not change?More than ten years have passed, not to mention her height, and even her appearance has not changed. It's not that she doesn't know Xiao Oh, but she is surprised by what she sees.

"This is Xiaowo, you know me." Zheng Yang said, holding Xiaowo's hand.

"Yeah, sister Xiao Qing, don't you know me?" After finishing speaking, Xiao Wo looked at Zhao Qingtian and said, "This is your baby, right? I didn't expect to grow up so big." Then she looked at Zhao Qingtian again. Zhao Tian said: "Hey, Zhao Tian, ​​didn't you say that you will never see my family again? Why are we together again this time?"

Zheng Yang knew that Xiaowu said what she said to Zhao Tian deliberately, because she felt unfair for herself.At that moment, she said to Xiao Oh: "Okay, Xiao Oh, don't talk so much. This place is not safe. Let's find a hiding place for them as soon as possible."

"Well, good." After Xiao Wo finished speaking, he didn't look at Zhao Tian again.

After Xiao Qing heard Xiao Wo's words, she looked at Zhao Tian suspiciously.She already felt that the atmosphere between Zhao Tian and Zheng Yang was not right before, but she didn't expect Zhao Tian to say that to Zheng Yang.Immediately, he walked up to Zhao Tian angrily and said, "Brother Tian, ​​did you really say that to Zheng Yang? How can you say it?"

"I don't want to do that either, it's just that you don't remember what happened five years ago. If someone finds out that we have a relationship with Zheng Yang, not only our family of three will lose their lives, but even Zheng Yang will be hard to save. You Under such circumstances, do I dare to meet her again?" Zhao Tian said excitedly.

Zheng Yang listened to Zhao Tian's words and quickly captured the information inside. She asked: "What happened five years ago?" Yes, she wanted to know what could make Zhao Tian unable to say anything. If we meet again, I also want to know what happened that could kill Zhao Tian's family of three and himself.

"You mean that the high priest wanted Zheng Yang in the whole region?" Xiao Qing asked Zhao Tian after thinking for a while.

Zhao Tian nodded and said nothing.

"That's it." After finishing speaking, Xiao Qing turned to Zheng Yang and answered her question.It turned out that five years ago, the High Priest had issued a wanted warrant, in which Zheng Yang was the most wanted criminal, if anyone reported her, she would be rich and prosperous, and if she was discovered without knowing, she would be sentenced to death.
