The #1 Pretty Boy of the Immortal Path

save?

Li Yamao is asking for help?

Lin Shu frowned, took out the previous letter and compared it with Li Yamao's handwriting, and found that the handwriting this time was very sloppy compared to the previous ones, and it could be seen that it was written in a hurry.

If he was really asking for help, then what kind of thing would make him write such a letter that he didn't even have time to write the extra words?

Lin Shu's first thought was that Beixia was calling, reaching Minzhou.

But this is obviously impossible. First of all, Minzhou is located in the southeast and is the hinterland of Nanxia. If the Northern Xia can reach Minzhou, then the entire Nanxia has already fallen.

Moreover, there was no news of the start of the war in the academy.

.

So, could it be something else in Ning'an Mansion?

Lin Shu first sent another letter to Minzhou, continued to inquire about the situation, then simply packed up his things, took the cat to the spirit beast stable, and met Zhao Ye.

When Zhao Ye saw him, he approached him intimately.

The eldest lady gave him many things before retreating, including Zhao Ye, and Lin Shu would come to see it every few days.

Lin Shudao: "Can I ride you out?"

Zhao Ye snorted and continued to rub against Lin Shu.

Lin Shu felt that this was the default.

He swallowed a bigu pill, and with the help of the cat, he rode on Zhao Ye and left the back mountain of the academy.

The road signs on the official road were clearly written, so he didn't encounter any difficulties on the road.Zhao Ye, as a one-in-a-million spirit horse, naturally traveled extremely fast, but he arrived at the boundary of Fujian Province in just two days.

but--

Lin Shu tightened the reins, and Zhao Ye slowed down, allowing him to see the scenery on both sides of the official road clearly.

The rain three years ago did not fall after all.

The so-called Chidiqianli is nothing more than that.

There are farmlands on both sides of the official road, but there are not many crops. The land has been cracked deeply due to years of severe drought. It is as dry as iron, and some withered grass grows on it.

But under the scorching sun, within a radius of five miles, there were only three creatures, Lin Shu, Zhao Ye, and Mao. In the cloudless sky, not even a bird could be seen.

Lin Shu couldn't tell what it was like.Zhao Ye snorted, and gradually picked up his pace, turning to the official road leading to Ning'an Mansion at the fork ahead.

Farmland is the foundation of a state and a capital. The land is so dry that the city is naturally depressed. The doors of every house are closed, and there are homeless people curled up in the shadows between houses. I don’t know how long it will last.

Lin Shu walked through the town to the suburbs, and followed the direction he remembered to find the address that the eldest lady had chosen for their village.

The village is still there, with dozens of sparse houses. At this time, the sun is setting, and smoke is coming out of the chimneys of several houses.

Since there is cooking smoke, it's all right, and the village has not encountered a catastrophe.

Lin Shu breathed a sigh of relief, galloped towards the village, came to the familiar door, and patted Chaimen.

No one drove, so he yelled again: "Duck feather."

Footsteps finally sounded inside, and the door creaked open, revealing the face of the aunt.

I haven't seen her for more than two years, and she has become much haggard.

After seeing herself, the aunt moved her lips a few times, her cloudy eyes sparkled, she held his shoulder, her body trembled, and she couldn't speak for a moment.

Lin Shu asked, "Where are the duck feathers and chicken feathers?"

The aunt said in Fujian dialect with a strong accent: "I was taken away!"

Lin Shu: "Abducted?"

The aunt said: "...the officials are arresting people!"

Lin Shudao: "Why?"

The aunt said: "We want to fight!"

Speaking of this, she looked around in a daze, clasped Lin Shu's shoulders with both hands, and said intermittently: "In the first year you left, your uncle...was confiscated, and in the second year, Ji Mao also went to the border... This year they came to the door, asking for duck feathers, what did they say.... The servant law was changed, I said that the duck feathers would go to the school to become a fairy head, and I begged them to let them go. The master said, he doesn't care if I am a fairy or not, and whether I grow up or not Long...the dozen or so people pulled the duck feathers away, and I don't know where I went..."

Lin Shu looked at her haggard and lifeless face, looked into the room, and saw a yellow and thin girl at the door timidly looking out at her.

The girl Lin Shu knew, she was Li Yamao and Li Jimao's younger sister, Li Goosemao.

Li Emao looked at him for a while, then suddenly flattened his mouth, and cried, "Brother, run! Someone caught my brother..."
