Because Xiao Jinren appeared with official officials, the situation was under control. But after counting the casualties, it was found that among the official officers below, two of them were originally responsible for the night watch, causing the masked assassin to break his neck. One was seriously injured and five were slightly injured. Apparently, these masked assassins came from the backyard of the ruined temple, took advantage of the darkness, braved the pouring rain, and sneaked into the front hall secretly.

To say that today's luck is not too bad, the rats that were alarmed before more or less made the Tao clan members who were taking shelter from the rain in the front hall a little wary. This will prevent the car from completely turning over.

But despite this, more than twenty people unfortunately lost their lives, and most of them were adults in the family. As for those who were injured, there were no more few.

After this incident, the people of the Tao clan who had been relaxed at first realized that they really could not relax at all this night. In fact, this is quite a helpless thing. After all, you have to brave the scorching sun during the day, walk for dozens of miles, and endure hunger and thirst most of the time. When you can rest in the evening, you have to be nearby. Looking for food.

I might be able to grit my teeth and persevere in these two days, and walk for several days in a row, but my body is so strong that at night I just want to fall asleep. What's more, half of the nearly 1,000 people in the exile team are old, young, women and children.

"Those tribesmen... let's burn them on the spot after daybreak and then bury them." Zhen Guogong was not in a good mood at this time, but he still discussed it with the few remaining elders in the tribe.

"That's all." Tao Qigong was silent for a long time, half-closed his eyes, and nodded in agreement.

In the blink of an eye, it was dawn. After Xu Yixuan took a simple wash, she took advantage of the rain to subside a little, then put on her big bamboo hat again and went to find Mrs. Zhen Guo and Tao Wan'er. Naturally, she also knew that her father-in-law was the Duke of the town. Yesterday, she specially cooked the brown sugar and wild ginger soup as a tribute to the old Duke's wife and Mr. Tao's family.

Xu Yixuan is really not stingy. After all, when the old lady came here in the rain yesterday, she called it to visit Tao Jinyu and Sister Shu. In fact, anyone with a discerning eye could see that she wanted to pick up what Xu Yixuan had built in the rain. up bamboo shed.

Although the old lady failed to get her wish in the end, she still took the wild ginger given by Mrs. Tao. I believe it is not difficult to make ginger soup as long as you collect some rainwater after returning.

Xu Yixuan just suddenly felt that Lord Zhenguo was a little too callous, and did not think about the fact that Mrs. Zhenguo, who had been with her for many years, and her only daughter, Tao Wan'er, were also weak women and needed to drink brown sugar and wild ginger soup to ward off the cold. , to prevent cold air from entering the body.

As expected, he fell ill.

It is said that "sickness comes like a mountain falling, and sickness goes away like a thread." If you were still in the Duke's Mansion in the capital city, you would have to be careful and take care of yourself for a while, not to mention that you are now in the wilderness and there is a lack of medical treatment.

Xu Yixuan pursed her lips, and her left hand hidden under her sleeve clenched into a fist.

"My lord, I see that the sky won't be clear for a while. Why don't you move your mother and sister Wan'er to my place, so that you don't get sick and end up with your eldest brother."

"Daughter-in-law Jinyu, aren't you afraid of inflicting your illness on Brother Cong and the other three?" Hearing that Xu Yixuan did not call herself "Dad" this time, Duke Zhenguo's eyes flashed slightly.

"Then let sister-in-law and aunt Fang take sister Shu and her brother and sister to move to the Duke of Guo and the eldest brother for the time being. Mother and sister Wan'er are sick. After all, they have to have a woman around to take care of them. It's more convenient." Xu Yixuan Looking at Tao Jinyan who was silent, he continued, "Brother, why don't you take advantage of this opportunity to convince your sister-in-law?"

Hearing what Xu Yixuan said, Tao Jinyan would be lying if he said he wasn't moved.

The Duke of Zhen thought deeply and agreed, and Tao Jinyan was even more moved, but Mrs. Tao may not be happy in her heart. Although in the end he reluctantly nodded because he was worried about his two children and his mother-in-law and sister-in-law made him sick, he never let go of the depression that had been suppressed in his heart before.

What's more, Sister Shu and her three siblings don't really want to be separated from Xu Yixuan. One by one, they started to make a fuss: "I don't want it, I don't want it~~"

"Be good, it's just temporary. When your grandmother and aunt recover, they will come back and I will prepare delicious food for you, okay?"
