In the year of disaster, the tough peasant girl is not easy to mess with

As for Ye Lingzhi.

After he left the county seat that day, he went straight to the capital city.

After going there, I wandered around the city for a day and made inquiries in restaurants and teahouses.

Every time he went to a place, he contacted the beggars around him and asked them if they had seen such a group of people.

There are too many people fleeing, and it is indeed not easy to find them in the vast sea of ​​people.

But Ye Lingzhi didn't want to give up just like that.

That was A Yao's family, which was also his family. He should help A Yao find her relatives.

It wasn't until after two days of wandering around that someone approached him.

at that time.

He is resting in the inn.

Someone took advantage of the darkness and broke into his room.

He just lay on the bed and didn't make a sound.

Just after noticing the man's aura approaching, he suddenly turned over and sat up.

But when he saw the man in black in front of him, he knelt down.

"Master! My subordinate has finally found you! You deserve to die, and please punish me, Master."

Ye Lingzhi frowned, "Why are you here?"

The man in black didn't even dare to raise his head, "My subordinates have searched all the surrounding prefectures and all the refugees. I just found Dongyang Prefecture, but I didn't expect that there are Saw you."

"Then how did you get yourself into this?" He wrinkled his nose in slight disgust.

The man in black was also a little embarrassed, "Master, forgive me, I will clean up now."

What can he do?

His master has been lost, so he still has the thought to dress up?

During this period of time, he couldn't care less about eating or sleeping. He was almost burning himself to death. He finally found his master, so how could he care about anything else.

It has been several months, and thinking about how I am now, I am indeed quite miserable.

He was too anxious, why didn't he come back to see his master after packing everything up?

This time it’s good, the master is disgusted...

Ye Lingzhi nodded, "Go and freshen up first, then come see me after you've finished."

The man in black immediately left and returned within half an hour.

At this moment, I have returned to a clean and fresh look, and my clothes have been changed again, but my hair is still wet and has not been dried, and is even dripping.

Ye Lingzhi pointed to the washstand next to him, "There's a towel on it. Wipe your hair. While you're wiping, tell me what happened during this time."

The man nodded, walked aside, picked up the towel and wiped it for a while, then put the towel on his shoulder.

"After escorting the master away, my subordinate was also stabbed and rolled down the slope. Those people thought I was dead, so they stabbed me twice and left. I was saved by a passerby. Save a life."

"After I almost recovered, I looked around for traces of my master, but I couldn't find any traces left by my master. I also contacted other secret guards. They were also searching everywhere at the moment. Almost all the cities around here were searching. All over.”

"My subordinates are leading the search in Dongyang Mansion. Tomorrow is the day we have agreed upon to rendezvous. My subordinates came here today to see if there are any marks left by the master in the city. The others should be here tomorrow."

"Fortunately, my subordinate came today, otherwise, I would have missed my master."

He looked happy.

I just admired how lucky I was to have bumped into him by accident.

He originally asked around on the street. Of course, he didn't dare to be too blatant. He just said that his family was lost and he came to look for it.

There are refugees everywhere now, and there are countless people like this looking for their families.

So even if he uses this excuse, he won't attract anyone's attention.

But when he was walking on the road, he suddenly saw his master standing in front of the little beggar.

He didn't know what he was talking about, but he also knew that his master was found and his life was saved.

He suppressed his excitement and did not go up to acknowledge her directly.

He was afraid that his master was being watched, or that he was being watched.

If the two of them met again in broad daylight, it would undoubtedly cause unnecessary trouble.

So he stayed up late at night, and when no one could be seen outside, he finally found the inn where his master was staying.

That's what happened just now.

Ye Lingzhi listened to him describing what happened during this period and just nodded without saying much.

"What about home? Is there anything going on?"

The man's face froze, "Master, there have been rumors that you have... died unfortunately. Although there are people searching everywhere, you have never appeared, so most people believe it."

Ye Lingzhi sneered, "They are really in a hurry. How long have they been and they are already so impatient that they want me to die?"

The man in black didn't know what he was talking about.

"You said you have been searching among the victims during this period. Let me mention a few people. See if you have seen them."

Then, he described the characteristics of the Ye family.

The man in black thought for a while and said with some uncertainty, "I seem to have seen him before, probably in Tianchang Mansion."

Ye Lingzhi's face lit up with joy, "Are you sure?"

The man in black thought for a while and finally nodded, "I have seen it. Tianchang Mansion was experiencing a riot at that time. These people entered Tianchang Mansion after the riot. I have seen it, but I don't know where they went afterwards. where."

"Go and search for the whereabouts of these people. If you find them, tell them that their daughter is in Beiqing Village, Anyang County, Dongyang Prefecture."

The man in black immediately saluted, "Yes!"

Ye Lingzhi waved his hand and continued, "Okay, then you go do this first, and then go back after you finish it. There is no need to stay in Dongyang Mansion."

When the man in black heard that he was going to drive him away, he immediately panicked.

"Master! There is no one around you, how is this possible? Just let your subordinates stay with you, and they can take care of you."

Ye Lingzhi waved his hand impatiently, "Stop talking nonsense and leave as soon as I tell you. If you stay here, you will hinder me."

The man in black was stunned and asked doubtfully, "Master, do you have other plans?"

"You don't need to ask more about this. When you go back, treat me as dead and play your part well. Do you understand?"

The man in black was silent, he didn't understand.

Why do good people pretend to be dead?

What kind of trick is the master playing?He really couldn't understand it.

But it's one thing not to understand, and another thing to do it or not.

He can't understand it at all, but he will definitely do what his master tells him to do.

This is his duty as a secret guard.

If the master tells him to leave, he will leave.

So the two just met briefly and separated in a hurry.
