I traveled through time, starting with two acres of land and a dog

The battle was already over. At 4 pm, the front reported that they had captured the enemy's base camp, but Zhang Zhen was killed by a traitor among his subordinates during his escape, and he wanted to take credit for it. Ma Dasao still escaped with a dozen people.

Du Chenyu led the guard and logistics team up the mountain. There were traces of battle wounds along the way. The fire continued to spread upward in the dense forest on the left. Although they organized the prisoners to put out the fire, they could not put it out completely at once.

Future climbed the mountain quickly. He was on the back of a guard and arrived at the Red Light Cult base camp on the mountainside in 40 minutes. There were still hundreds of old, weak, women and children staying at the foot of the mountain. The children were almost naked, and the women and children only had some important parts covered by a few pieces of rags, and their eyes were full of fear.

The outermost area around the flat plain is planted with a lot of corn, poppies, and some vegetables. There is a circle of thatched houses and stone houses near the inner cave. Through a road paved with broken stones and wood ash, you can go straight to the interior. On the right is a more exquisite house built with peeled logs with a plaque hanging on it, which reads "The Holy Maiden Palace". On the left is a stone house, and there is a plaque with a wooden board hanging on it that reads "Tianshi Hall". There are white lotus symbols with a red background painted around it. In fact, it is most accurate to change the Red Lantern Sect to "Red Lotus Sect". After all, it is a branch of the White Lotus Sect, but the white symbol was changed to red.

Between the two palaces was a stream that came from a mountain river, providing water for the hundreds of people. Walking along the stream, the setting sun shone through the clouds and trees, and a spacious cave similar to the Juyi Hall came into view. It was magnificent under the sun, and a huge "Red Lotus" logo was hung in the middle. There were chairs on both sides, but now they were very messy. Under the guidance of Peng Huiyu, he slowly walked to the redwood chair in the middle, which was Ma Dasao's seat. There was a smaller chair next to it, which was Zhang Zhenxian's seat.

Du Chenyu put his hands behind his back, jumped onto the big chair, turned around and felt the divine light. The sunlight came straight in along the middle aisle and just shone on the lower half of the seat. Several circles of white crystal stones at the bottom of the seat immediately scattered the sunlight, like a flourishing lotus or the Buddha's light. It was truly an ingenious design.

"Greetings to Master Chenyu, I wish Master Chenyu invincible in battle and invincibility." The moment he turned around, bathed in golden light, Peng Huiyu and Luo Feng led the guards and reconnaissance teams behind him to naturally separate on both sides, saluting neatly and shouting slogans. This slogan was shouted during training, but I didn't expect it to be used on him today. It seems to be Peng Huiyu's idea. Only Peng can think of this here. Of course, Secretary General Shen Shiyu can also think of it, but he is not here.

"You're welcome, brothers. Everyone sit down. Brother Peng, please tell me about the battle situation." He jumped off the chair, waved his hand and walked down the stairs.

Everyone consciously placed the messy chairs and sat down.

"Reporting to Master Chenyu, according to our preliminary statistics, a total of 235 religious bandits were eliminated in this battle, 328 people, including the elderly, the weak, women and children, were captured, 146 guns of various types were seized, and the Taoist priest Zhang Zhenxian was annihilated. Ma Dasao fled to the Ningqiang area with a dozen people. Other property included a box of gold and silver jewelry, and several boxes of antiques, calligraphy and paintings. We don't have much money now, but we have several thousand kilograms of grain. A total of 42 people on our side were sacrificed," Peng Huiyu said in one breath.

"Okay, brothers, thank you for your hard work. Peng Da will draft the specific battle report summary. We will start cooking immediately. First, feed the women and children outside with some meat. Clean up the battlefield and put out the forest fire. Everyone will keep a small team as guards to comfort the people and resume production. He will go down the mountain to camp at night and return to Liziba with the guard team tomorrow. After he leaves, Peng Huiyu will be in charge of the affairs here, assisted by He Chaowu. They will also try their best to settle the people at the foot of the mountain." He gave brief instructions on post-war matters.

The few rays of sunlight were all hidden during their meeting, and the cave became unexpectedly dark. After giving instructions on various matters and walking out of the cave, "BOOM..." a thunderclap sounded overhead, and the sky was covered with dark clouds, and it seemed that another thunderstorm was about to come.

"Let those people outside come in to take shelter, it will rain soon," he ordered.

“Swish...swish..." After a gust of wind, raindrops as big as bullets began to fall, followed by a rainstorm, washing away the post-war wounds and putting out the fires on the mountains. It is not too late to sprout new buds during the summer rainy season.

The next day, he slept until he woke up naturally. The days without battle reports were happy and comfortable. He said he was here to manage the affairs, so try not to disturb him, and let everyone handle it as appropriate and hand it over to Huang Kunyang. He set off for home with more than 50 guards and logistics teams, and there was no conversation along the way.

"Dad, I'm back," he said to his father as his father picked him up from the donkey.

"You must have been tanned. You've been running for more than ten days." His father touched his head and said, "You really need someone to take care of you."

Now I am away more and more frequently, for longer periods of time, and sometimes I don’t come home for several months.” said my father.

He looked at him, not understanding what he meant. Was he going to find him a maid or a child bride? He wondered in his mind. He carried him into the township office, and a 14 or 5-year-old girl came out. When she saw her father, she called out softly, "Hello, Captain. Is Master Chenyu back?" Then she stood timidly on the side of the road.

"Xiao Wan, this is Hu Zi. You have to help discipline him in the future. He has been naughty since he was young and most importantly, he is disobedient," she knocked on his head.

"Hu Zi, this is your sister Xiaowan, her surname is Jiang. Shen Shiyu brought her back from Guangyuan County and sent her to your mother. Your mother said that she will take care of your daily life in the future." My father gave a brief introduction without talking about her background, probably because it was inconvenient to show her in person.

"Sister Xiaowan, you are so beautiful. Don't listen to what my father says. I have always been very well behaved. I will introduce new friends to you later. They are Aunt Yao, Sister Yaya, and Sister Weiwei. They are all very nice. Weiwei has a lot of toys too," he jumped from his father's arms and said to the little girl in front of him.

"Thank you, Mr. Chenyu. I'll go clean up the room first." She bent down to greet him, then prepared to leave.

"Go," after Xiaowan left, he and his father went into the house, "Xiaowan is also a child with a miserable life. She was originally the daughter of a troupe owner. When she was returning to Baishui after performing in the county, she was attacked by bandits. Her father and two fellow apprentices were killed by bandits, and her eldest brother was injured. When she was escaping, she met Shen Shiyu, who then wiped out the group of bandits and saved them. When her mother saw them, she avenged them and entrusted her two children and two fellow apprentices to Shen Shiyu. Then, she took out a dagger and committed suicide when no one was paying attention, and followed her husband. It was completely unexpected at the time. Fortunately, Shen Shiyu and his team brought a doctor, who immediately began to stop the bleeding and protect them. "After treating her mother's wound, under the guidance of Shen Shiyu, her mother gradually gained hope of survival. Fortunately, she was in a hurry to stab the dagger to the left, missing the heart, and finally saved one person. Faced with several life-saving graces, several younger generations knelt down and asked to take them in. These brothers and sisters were also good at martial arts and could read and write. After her mother's wound recovered, several brothers and sisters were sent to the civil and martial arts school to study and joined the army. Her mother and Xiaowan were sent to Wuyin, where your mother was, and a letter was written, saying that Xiaowan had a gentle character, was well-educated, and had good skills. She could serve as a guard for Master Chenyu. Therefore, your mother was sent here after two days of inspection." The father sat down and briefly told this tortuous story.

"Surely they have checked everything accurately?" he asked.

"No problem. I have personally reviewed their resumes and files, and the bandits have also interrogated them. They were simply attracted by their beauty and wanted to take the two women back to be their wives. They are also from Guangyuan. This time they were going to perform in Baishui area, but an accident happened halfway," said my father.

"Okay, then I'll keep him by my side and observe him for a while. If he can endure hardship, he can stay," he said.
