"Are you from Wangchuan?" Ye Erniang's eyes rolled wildly.

She reached out to grab Ye Cenqiu, but was dodged, "Then tell me where my child is?! Tell me quickly, where is my child!"

"Everything in this world has a price. If you want to know the answer, you have to give me something that satisfies me." Ye Cenqiu said while avoiding it.

"Silver, I can give you silver." Ye Erniang's eyes fell on the silver hairpin that the woman had dropped on the ground when she knocked it over just now, she quickly squatted down to pick it up, and stuffed it into Ye Cenqiu's hand.

"I know that news about Wang Chuan will cost a lot of money, if not enough, I can go find it." Ye Erniang said hastily.

The man regained his strength and propped himself up to stand up. Seeing this, his wife crawled behind him regardless of the pain in her body, and hugged his upper body.

"Sir, are you okay?" The woman wanted to touch the man's neck with trembling fingers, but when she was about to touch it, she withdrew her hand in panic.

"The hairpin..." The man leaned against the woman, just in time to see Ye Erniang pick up the silver hairpin on the ground and hand it to Ye Cenqiu.

"No, we don't want it anymore." The woman struggled to help the man up, "Let's hide first."

"I'll do it myself." The man forced a smile, gently pushed the woman away, and slowly got up by himself.

He knew his wife was not feeling well right now.

Pulling his wife up, the two carefully hid in the house.

Of course they know that an ordinary house can't stop others, but where can they go, and their children are still inside.

"These are not enough." Silver hairpins are not pretty, especially in the eyes of Ye Cenqiu, who is used to looking at rare treasures.

Ye Erniang's expression suddenly froze when she heard this, she stared at Ye Cenqiu's face, and said softly, "Then what do you want, is the life of the person behind you enough?"

Yu Luocha, who had just walked over, suddenly heard that the problem was on her and couldn't help but sneered, especially since the woman said she wanted to kill herself.

"Cen Qiu, you have to protect me." He rolled his eyes and smiled at Ye Cenqiu.

Ye Cenqiu had already managed to do nothing in time, Yu Luocha, he said lightly to Ye Erniang, "Enough."

If she has the ability.

"Just now you invited me to go with you, but now you want someone else to kill me, isn't it too heartless for Cen Qiu?" Yu Luocha said with a low smile.

Well, he was not surprised by Ye Cenqiu's answer.

"Just use your life." Ye Cenqiu opened the folding fan in his hand, the distance was so close that he could slit Ye Erniang's throat almost instantly.

But when the folding fan approached Ye Erniang's throat, Ye Cenqiu suddenly paused.

It would be cheaper for her to just die like this.

The folding fan brushed against her neck, and Ye Erniang reacted, immediately exerted force on her feet, and took a few steps back.

Pushing forward, the fan opened, blocking the poisonous needle shot by Ye Erniang.With slight movements of his fingers and force from his wrists, Ye Cenqiu folded his fans together like a sword, and stabbed at her face.

Ye Erniang leaned back suddenly, stood up and clapped Ye Cenqiu's hand holding the fan.

The fan opened, and Ye Cenqiu threw it out again. The moment the fan blocked Ye Erniang's eyes, he formed a palm with five fingers and hit Ye Erniang's dantian hard.

"Pfft——!!!" The pain of being crippled in the dantian instantly spread throughout the meridians of the whole body, and what is more unbearable than the pain is the crippled martial arts.

After catching the returned fan, Ye Cenqiu closed the fan and walked slowly in front of Ye Erniang.

After watching quietly for a while, he used the fingers of his right hand as a sword, and the invisible sword energy instantly cut off Ye Erniang's tendons in her hands and hamstrings.

Since then, not only has she no martial arts, but she can no longer walk.

Taking a step forward to look at the child Ye Cenqiu was holding, Yu Luocha narrowed his eyes and gently parted his mouth.

"The tongue was cut off." He said lightly.

Ye Cenqiu looked down at Yu Luocha's parted mouth, only to see that it was dark and empty.

Holding the child in his arms, Ye Cenqiu took out a flare from his sleeve with the other hand.

It was still early, and the light of the signal flare was not obvious, but two people rushed here in just a cup of tea.

"The landlord." The two knelt on one knee and said in a low voice.

"Bring her to Mubai, and tell him to replace her with this woman." Ye Cenqiu glanced at Ye Erniang on the ground, she was still awake, not to mention the pain in her body did not allow her to pass out.

Slowly taking out another porcelain bottle from his sleeve, Ye Cenqiu uncorked the bottle and slowly poured some on Ye Erniang's wound, "Don't let her be killed by others."

Otherwise, it would not count as death by his hands.

"Yes." The two picked up Erniang Ye and dragged her away.

But after a while, the world returned to tranquility, except for some red-stained snow on the ground, which proved what happened just now.

"What about this child?" You don't need to expect Yu Luosha to have any sad emotions. To him, this is just a child with a miserable death. If Ye Cenqiu hadn't hugged him, he might not have given this corpse any attention. .

Ye Cenqiu was not considered a good person, even if he used the standards of his previous life, he, and all the righteous and evil people in this arena, were all blood-stained people who needed to be executed.

But people's natural sympathy for cubs is something even Ye Cenqiu can't avoid.

Not to mention.

Ye Cenqiu walked to the door of the couple just now with the child in his arms.

Ye Erniang didn't even seek revenge when she killed this child, but just because she lost her child, she stole other people's children to play with, and then brutally killed them.

Countless innocent children have died at her hands for so many years.

"Open the door." Ye Cenqiu knocked on the door.

Inside the door, the man who was secretly hiding behind the door trembled when he saw this, and opened the door after a moment of hesitation.

"This, this young hero..." The man didn't know what to say. His wife heard the movement and carefully stood inside the house holding her child, looking at Ye Cenqiu at the door.

"Bury him well." In ancient times, children did not have graves.

Ye Cenqiu handed the child in his arms to the man, together with the silver hairpin that Erniang Ye had stuffed into him just now, and then gave him another piece of silver.

"I can't take this." When the man saw the money Ye Cenqiu handed over, he shook his head again and again, "The young hero saved us just now, if it wasn't for you, I would not be able to survive with the cheap. How can I collect your money."

"Be grateful and offer some incense to him every year." Without taking back the money, Ye Cenqiu said.

The man's eyes fell on the face of the child Ye Cenqiu handed over, and he took it stiffly.

He was just an ordinary citizen, seeing such a miserable death, even if he knew nothing had happened, he would inevitably feel terrified.

As soon as the man took the child, Ye Cenqiu turned around and left.

It's getting late, and it's time for him to leave.

The carriage gradually drifted away, and after a period of time the man got used to it, and finally he was not so afraid of the child in his arms.

"Master, this child..." The woman walked over with the child in her arms, glanced at the child in his arms, and then hurriedly looked away.

"According to what Engong said, let's bury it properly." The man sighed, "It's also pitiful, she looks about the same age as our daughter."

Hearing what the man said, the woman froze for a moment, then turned to look at the child.

For some reason, now she found that the child was not so scary.

......

A few days later, a carriage met dozens of carriages pulling grain and grass parked near the official road.

"Landlord."

"Should be the landlord."

There are two groups of people guarding the grain and grass, one group is from Wangchuan, and the other group is the army sent by the little emperor.

There are many checkpoints to go through on the way to the border, and it will be much easier to explain it to the little emperor.

As for these troops, it would be fine if the little emperor could feel at ease. Since he decided to do it, he must have thought about the possibility of these things happening now.

Moreover.

Some things are either not to be done, or to be done well.

He sent food and grass out of the idea of ​​helping the border soldiers, but since he did it, he had to maximize his own interests.

The reputation among the people, and the favor of the little emperor, he must follow this opportunity to get it.

"Thank you, let's go." Ye Cenqiu got off the carriage and stood in front of everyone's eyes. His cold but clear voice reached everyone's ears through the blessing of internal strength.

"Yes!"

Almost all the people in Wangchuan had incomparable trust and admiration for Ye Cenqiu, and the other soldiers knew that the food and grass were all paid by Wangchuan, so they naturally had a good impression of Ye Cenqiu, the landlord.

Everything went well, and the convoy slowly moved forward on the official road.

Ten days later, the convoy arrived at the town closest to the border.

It's been a long time since Liu Niang has had a full meal, and their family's food is only a pot of rice soup that can be seen clearly at the bottom of the pot.

But eating this kind of rice soup is no different from drinking water. She is very hungry every day.

Originally, they still had some rice every day, but the food at home was given to those soldiers. Dad said that those people were heroes who defended their homes and the country, and mother said that it was because of those soldiers that they could barely survive. Although very hungry.

She has never read a book, so she doesn't know the truth, but she knows that there were many vicious people who killed the people in the neighboring villages, blood flowed all over the place, and all the food in the village was robbed. Her friend Xiaohua is from that village, and she will never see her again.

The snow is whistling, and the snow here at Border Pass is always stronger than the wind.

The carriage stopped suddenly, and Ye Cenqiu in the carriage opened his eyes.

"What's wrong?" He opened the window and raised the curtain.

"Lord, there is a little girl who fainted in front." Soon a person from Wangchuan came to answer Ye Cenqiu's question.

"Should have fainted from hunger." Before entering Wangchuan, this man from Wangchuan was used to seeing people who died of starvation around him, so he saw the little girl's condition at a glance.

Stepping out of the carriage, Ye Cenqiu saw the little girl he was talking about fainting from hunger.

She was very thin, and her thin body would not be able to grow even if she was wrapped in a dilapidated cotton padded jacket. Her exposed face did not have the baby fat that a child should have. Instead, her cheeks were sunken and her face was sallow.

He knew that this world was in ancient times, and food was already scarce, and almost half of the people in the country could not get enough to eat.

"Give her a portion of food and send her home." Ye Cenqiu said.

"Yes." One obeyed and picked up the little girl.

Yin Shanyun led a small team to stand guard at the gate of the barracks, waiting for the food and grass agreed in the letter.

Since the food and grass were burned that time, the army has been out of food for many days. So far, the food eaten by the soldiers has been sent by the people in the villages near the border.
