You have to use light riding to hurry, the horse-drawn carriage can't drive into the winding path, and although Liu Xian'an's short-legged pony is dexterous and has good stamina, it runs really slowly, rattling, like an infinite pull for a long time.So Hua Pingye found a new brown horse for him. Its legs were as long as those of dragon dragons, but its personality was a bit arrogant, and it would kick up when it saw anyone.

Gao Lin was convinced: "It's hard for you to sit on this ancestor yourself, but you let Second Young Master Liu ride?"

Hua Pingye was also very surprised: "Isn't it possible? But Mr. Liu Er can even buy Xuanjiao, I think he is a master of horse training."

While the two were talking, Liu Xian'an who was beside him was startled by the brown horse and took two steps back, with a rotten wooden stick hanging on his ankle, he almost fell into the mud.

Liang Shu caught his body in time, and put him on Xuanjiao casually: "Sit still, you ride it."

Liu Xian'an supported the saddle with both hands: "...Okay."

Liang Shu turned around and stepped onto the brown horse, tightened the rein with one hand, and angrily reprimanded in a low voice: "Be honest!"

The brown horse took two steps back disobediently. Although it still looked unwilling, it didn't act like a monster after all. It stomped its hooves on the spot and remained silent.

Aning fastened the burden tightly and climbed onto a big horse.What he experienced and heard along the way made his state of mind change slightly, he became more mature and sensible, and he also lost a little weight. Like a willow drawn in spring, it stretches more and more.

A group of people galloped away from Cuiqiu City in the twilight of dawn.

The refugees outside the city gate were woken up by the neighing of the horse, and opened their heavy eyelids. They looked at the team shrouded in mist in confusion, and disappeared at the end of the mountain road in an instant as if they were riding the wind.

……

When I first left the city, there were quite a lot of refugees gathered along the way, but after walking for a few days, the number of refugees became less and less, and finally came across a family of five in ragged clothes. The guards went over to inquire about the situation, and the young man He said: "I heard that the master of Cuiqiu City didn't open the city gate, and it was useless to go there. He could only starve to death in the mountains and forests, so everyone went to Sanshui City, where there is food to eat."

If you don't eat, you will die, but if you rebel, you may not be able to live. When a person is in a desperate situation and his only hope is to "survive", he doesn't think much about whether the food in Sanshui City is contaminated with the blood of other people. They will not consider whether there are innocent people among the officials and soldiers who were mobbed and killed by them.

The chaotic world is not only the world, but also the people's hearts.Liu Xian'an said to Aning: "There is only one family now, so it won't cause looting, go and give them some food."

Aning took out a stack of dry biscuits from the bag, wrapped them up and handed them to the young man: "Cuiqiu City will not be open again in the short term, and the people in the city have no rice left to eat. You should save some food on the way, and you should be able to hold on to it." Go to Wanhe City, the situation there is much better."

The young man seemed to be dreaming, and his daughter-in-law was also wiping away tears.Aning repeatedly urged: "You must hide the food well along the way, don't eat it in front of others, and don't be soft-hearted and distribute it to other refugees, otherwise not only will you not be able to save others, but you will also be unable to save yourself."

The family of five thanked each other repeatedly, and continued to go to the other side of the mountain road.

Liang Shu asked Liu Xian'an, "You taught him?"

Liu Xian'an shook his head: "I don't need to teach you."

"That's right." Liang Shu said, "Only in a peaceful and prosperous world can you raise a stupid son from a wealthy family. If you see people's hearts a few times in a troubled world, all your innocence will disappear."

Liu Xian'an first said: "Then what the prince wants all his life, isn't it to make Dayan produce more fools?" After he finished speaking, he pondered for a while, "But that's not bad, as long as it's not a big treachery, there are many people in the city. There are some silly and villainous dandies who walk around all day long and fight crickets, which is also suitable for the word 'prosperous age'."

After all, the prosperous capital is prosperous, and the people naturally have more leisure.Liang Shu also felt that after what Liu Xian'an said, those little yamen in Wangcheng seemed to become a little bit cute. Of course, they still had to be beaten, and after they were beaten, they would continue to be auspicious in the peaceful and prosperous age decoration.

One day, everyone met a little girl in the mountains. She was all dirty, like a thin monkey, with only big and bright eyes.Ah Ning wiped her face and gave her some food. At first, she thought it was a child abandoned by the refugees, and she was still worried about how to deal with it. Later, a woman hurried out of the woods and took the little girl away. He dragged him back to his side, dragged his wrist and ran.

"Auntie, please slow down, we are not bad people!" Aning hurriedly said, "Your daughter's foot is sprained."

The guards flew over to stop the two of them. The woman seemed terrified and trembling all the time.Ah Ning coaxed her nicely for a long time before calling her soul back.The woman stammered and said that she was from Xiaozhao Village. A few days ago, a group of officers and soldiers broke into the village, saying that they wanted to collect food for the army, and killed many people, so the remaining villagers had to hide in the mountains.

Gao Lin cursed secretly, you bastard.

There are only two possibilities for this-

The first is that the refugees pretend to be the garrison to burn, kill and loot, which is considered as dereliction of duty by Lu Xiang.

The second is that the garrison is really so arrogant, taking advantage of the instability of the world, massacring the people to fill their own pockets, it is even more dereliction of duty for Lu Xiang.

According to what the woman said, the group of officers and soldiers did not leave after robbing things, but lived openly in Xiaozhao Village. A while ago, a brave young man went down to check and found that they were still there.

Liu Xian'an said: "Go further, go down this bend in the mountain, and you will be Xiaozhao Village, you should be able to arrive before midnight."

"Let's go." Liang Shu turned his horse's head, "See where the beast came from."

Aning secretly glanced at the prince's expression, and felt...that group of gangsters might only live until midnight.

He bandaged the little girl's wound and hurriedly followed her.

Liu Xian'an and Aning's riding skills have been practiced very well so far, and they will not hinder the progress of the large troop.When the night was dark, everyone arrived at Xiaozhao Village smoothly, and saw a waving flag at the entrance of the village, with the pattern of Dayan's garrison painted on it.Several other officers and soldiers were patrolling back and forth, guarding a pile of bright bonfires, and wine and meat for keeping out the cold were placed on the table.One person moved the chair and sat down, pulled a bone casually, ate a couple of bites, probably thought it was not tasty, and threw it to a mad dog next to him.

The mad dog pulled the iron chain, scattered the bonfire, and a burning firewood rolled to the ground, illuminating a new area.Liu Xian'an's pupils shrank a little, and only then did he realize that on the other side of the iron chain, there was still a person bound, lying on the ground, motionless, with disheveled hair, and many dark and brown marks on his body, like dried blood.

Perhaps smelling the smell of meat, he barely raised his head and looked at the mad dog.The officers and soldiers laughed loudly, and deliberately threw another piece of meat to the dog, stepped on his back, pulled his hair, and forced him to compete with the dog for food.

"Eat or not? Aren't you hungry? Eat!" The officers and soldiers kept teasing and humiliating, and pulled out another whip to whip. Just as they raised it, they heard a "crack" sound from their own arms, and the whole person tilted backward , screaming and lying on the ground.

"It's not as good as a beast." Gao Lin let go of his hand, looking at the group of scum in front of him, "I didn't know that Dayan still had soldiers like you."

"Who are you?" The officers and soldiers touched their long swords vigilantly, perhaps because they saw that this group of people were well-dressed and not like ordinary people, so they did not act rashly, and only warned, "We are the Yongzi Battalion under the command of Master Jiang. Raising rations here, I advise you better not to meddle in your own business."

"Master Jiang, which Lord Jiang, Jiang Tao or Jiang Zhongqi?"

"Neither...none of them, it's Mr. Jiang Wei Jiang."

"The low-level official position is not even qualified to send your name to the prince, but you have raised a group of ghosts who bully the people." Gao Lin became angry when he heard this, and motioned his subordinates to rescue the young man first.Aning saw that he seemed to be very hungry, so he tore off a piece of meat left on the table, but the young man kept his mouth shut, refusing to eat, and said dryly: "This...is my dog, who was killed by them. gone."

Aning's hands froze, and he couldn't bear it, so he hurriedly removed the meat and went to the carriage to get some food.

Liu Xian'an fed the young man a few sips of water, at the other end, Gao Lin had already kicked the group of officers and soldiers to pieces, clearing a path.When Liang Shu stepped into the village, the movement and screams at the entrance of the village had awakened many people. They ran out in a sleepless state. Before they could figure out what was going on, they were all captured by the guards of Prince Xiao's Mansion. There were 36 people in total. There was an official reply saying that there was a big bright red seal in all directions, and it was really Dayan's regular garrison.

Therefore, it is even more abhorrent than refugees pretending to be. The refugees are evil inspired at the critical moment of life and death, and this group of people take the imperial salary and bully the people of the imperial court. They really deserve to die.

There are still some imprisoned villagers in the village, mostly young women, which shows that these bastards are half evil and don't want to be left behind.The young man is the son of the village chief, named Ayong. He covered many people fleeing from the small road, and he stayed behind.

Gao Lin kicked the moaning man on the ground: "How many teams like yours have you sent?"

"We, we only know that Mr. Jiang sent a total of three teams, and the rest of the battalions are almost the same. If you want to fight, the first thing you have to do is collect the rations, and you have to be fast, so as not to be robbed first."

Two levels above Jiang Wei's head is Jiang Tao, one level up is Jiang Zhongqi, and one level up is Lu Xiang.Even Jiang Wei, who has never heard of the name, can send three teams, and the entire garrison is released, so that the people with a radius of hundreds of miles can't be stable for a day?

And the garrison should not be short of food at all. No one knows this better than Liang Shu, so no one is more angry than him.The rescued young woman was still crying, and the young man's legs and feet were tortured until his bones were exposed. Liang Shu slightly closed his eyes and said, "Throw them all to feed the wolves."

"Yes!"

The guards dragged the people on the ground and walked towards the outside of the village. The screams and begging for mercy gradually disappeared in the depths of the night.Gao Lin said to Ah Yong: "Little brother, you are a good person, but we must hurry on our way as soon as possible, we can't stay to protect this village, maybe there will be the same robbers in the future, you have to decide for yourself Let the rest of the people enter the mountain, or stay here."

"I know." The young man gasped, "I will discuss it with Grandpa."

"Okay." Gao Lin said, "Take care."

"Brother!" The young man stopped him, hesitantly looked outside the courtyard, "I just heard you say, Xiao..."

Gao Lin patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, the prince will definitely get back this justice for the common people."
