Nian understood immediately. She patted Shen Nan on the shoulder and said sincerely, "My daughter, although you are good at skills, you still take Xiaoye with you when you go out. You are a girl, and my mother is worried about you."

"Okay, just listen to mother." In order to appease Nian, Shen Nan leaned on Nian's chest obediently, very obediently.

"Second sister, you don't take me with you in fights. It's too unreasonable." Wait for Shen Nan to be free. Sanwa pulled him aside to talk. Sanwa was now ten years old, and her height had grown a lot. She looked like she was not much shorter than him.

"With your three-legged cat skills, you are only qualified to follow me and clean up the battlefield, so you'd better not get involved." Shen Nan said.

"Tch!" Sanwa was unconvinced, "Second sister, don't underestimate me. I've been practicing with Brother Weiba and the others for so long, and I'm pretty good now."

"Tch, it's not like you can't beat me."

"I can't beat you, I just don't dare to beat you. Who makes you my sister?" Sanwa said.

Shen Nan: "..."

He really didn't want to admit that he was really afraid of his sister.

"Okay, okay, eat quickly. Only when you are full will you have the strength to continue on your way." Wei Ci urged.

Sanwa was stunned for a moment, then she remembered that she was hungry and hurried back to eat.

Even with the addition of eight horses, everyone still had to pull the heavy luggage by themselves. The flesh that had grown over the past few months had visibly disappeared in just a few days.

The smiles on everyone's faces were also much less, and their faces were filled with bitterness and exhaustion.

Although Ono has no difficulty talking to people now, he has always spoken very little and is usually very silent.

Especially in the past few days after leaving Kaoshan Village, he became more and more silent. Shen Nan sat next to him and asked: "Xiaoye, what's wrong with you? Why are you unhappy?"

Ono shook his head and just looked at the cleaned wolf claws in his hands silently. Shen Nan naturally noticed this and asked, "Do you miss the wolves?"

Hearing this, Ono's pupils enlarged slightly and he nodded imperceptibly. Shen Nan touched his head and said earnestly: "Xiaoye, you are a human and they are wolves. When they asked you to come to me, they wanted you to return to a normal human life."

"Don't worry, they are wolves. Wolves have a very strong ability to survive. Besides, there are other wolf brothers around them, so nothing will happen to them." Shen Nan comforted.

Hearing what Shen Nan said, a smile appeared on Xiaoye's face. He looked up at the blue sky and white clouds in the distance and murmured: "Aye, I'm very safe now. I will grow taller and grow up soon. You guys Also live well.”

"Silly boy, they will be fine." Shen Nan smiled and touched his head.

Ono looked up at the mountains in the distance, his eyes full of nostalgia and a smile on his lips.

After several days of running around, they finally arrived at Lianlan City.

Wei Ci planned to settle in Yuehe City, and they had a carriage, so they had to pass through Lianlan City.

Unexpectedly, I encountered difficulties here. I saw that the gate of the once prosperous Lianlan City was closed tightly, and there were many soldiers standing in front of the door.

"Brother, official official, even Lan City is not allowed to enter." Wei Ba stepped forward to inquire.

Wei Ci and the others did not step forward, but waited at the rear. As soon as Weiba appeared, soldiers blocked his way.

He frowned and asked, "May I ask how the official officer can enter the city?"

The soldier looked him over, with contempt flashing in his eyes, and said, "You can't get in. No refugees are allowed in. If you want to get relief food, just like them, stay at the base of the wall. At least you can get protection from Lianlan City."

The defenders pointed to the wall in the distance, and then Weiba noticed that there was a row of earthen walls built under the wall, with straw huts built on top. It was impossible to tell without looking carefully.

"Lord Guan Cha, can you be accommodating and let us enter the city?" Wei Ba thrust a gold ingot into Guan Cha's hand.

The official originally thought it was silver, and was about to return it upright, but suddenly he saw that the silver in his hand was gold. He looked closely and realized that it was a tael of gold.

No matter what time it is, gold is the most valuable. Even though there is a drought everywhere now, the drought will be over in a few years at most. By then, the gold will be valuable again, and he can rely on the gold to make his family live a good life.

So he calmly accepted the gold, and when he looked at Wei Ba, he no longer felt disgusted. The official immediately changed his face and said flatteringly: "This young master wants to enter the city. How many people are there?"

"Nearly 200 people!" After Wei Ba finished speaking, the official stopped laughing immediately. If there were just a few people, he could use his authority to let them in, but [-] people would definitely alarm the county magistrate.

He was just a soldier, and he had no problem accepting small bribes, but he had to report such a big thing, and he didn't want to get into trouble.

"Sir, according to the custom, everyone needs to pay one tael of silver when entering the city. If you bring so many people, you will need at least one or two hundred silver!" the official said.

Weiba frowned, "Why is it so expensive? We were just passing through the city. Look..."

"Sir, it's not that I won't do it for you, it's really that I can't do it. According to the rules, even if the emperor comes, he has to pay money." The official said.

"We are just passing through Lianlan City and we won't stop. Can we make it more convenient and save money? We won't stop and we will go directly."

"Sir, wait a minute, I'll go and report it first." The official, holding the gold in his pocket, decided to make it easier for him, and ran to inform the county magistrate.

Weiba and the others waited patiently.

After about half a stick of incense, someone led a man out. The man was dressed in green clothes and had a handsome face. He didn't look like an ordinary person at first glance. Wei Ba and the others could tell at a glance.

The man in green clothes at the head was slender, with a handsome face, and a pair of dark eyes that seemed to contain a deep lake. His eyes scanned them and said, "Are you going to the city?"

"That's right!"

"Did you bring any money?"

Wei Ba nodded and shook his head, and the man in green understood instantly.

"How many people are there in total?"

"190 eight."

"100 taels of silver, you can leave the city immediately after entering, and you are not allowed to stay."

"Row."

"Then bring these people over. You can guard them and leave the city immediately. They are not allowed to stay privately."

After the man in green clothes finished giving his instructions, he turned around and left.

Wei Ba heard the words and waved to the people behind him. Wei Ci received the message and asked everyone to take their bags and go to the city.

When the refugees under the city wall saw this scene, they did not dare to make any mistakes and stayed obediently under the city wall.

After burning incense, the city gate opened and they were taken into the city one after another.

The journey was smooth and they successfully entered Lianlan City.

After entering the city, they went directly to the east of the city and prepared to leave from there.

There was no one in the city, and the shops were closed and very depressed.
