Don't panic, the family boss is busy farming

Chapter 46 Promising
After turning all the information in his mind, Xu Da replied "persistently":
"The young family's surname is Xu. They escaped from Yanzhou. My father was a soldier when he was young, and he was disabled because of this. When he was alive, my father told the young one that he should thank those soldiers. Without them, there would be no We little people live in peace."

Xu Dazai carefully told the general about his old father's glorious deeds. When he talked about the emotion, his eyes filled with tears. He looked like a filial child who remembered his father's teachings.

The general frowned, and after listening for a while, his eyes showed a bit of confusion. It took a while to realize that the kid in front of the answer he wanted didn't answer for a long time.

He immediately stopped Xu Da who had already talked about his old father's heroic deeds in fighting the Huns for the country, and shouted sharply:

"My lord asks you what you say, and you answer it. Long-winded, are these people buried by you?!"

There was impatience in the words, but there was not much ruthlessness in his eyes, Xu Da rolled his eyes, and suddenly understood that his nonsense just now had an effect.

As expected, this group of people came to collect the corpse of their companions, as he had guessed.

And looking at the outfit, unlike those miscellaneous refugee troops, it seems to be a regular army.

And there is only one regular army in Jizhou, which is the ever-victorious army belonging to the Yuan family.

These messages flashed through Xu's brain, and in the eyes of the general, this man was stunned by his drinking.

Xu Da paused, then nodded shyly, "Yes."

The general stared, "Why do you want to bury the corpse? There is a conspiracy!"

If you don't want to do anything, who bothers to bury the corpse?Xu Da replied in his heart.

However, there was a look of compassion on his face and he replied: "The young one came here with his family fleeing from disaster. He didn't expect to see such a tragic scene. Thinking of my father's comrades who died on the battlefield and no body was collected, I wanted to do my part. Force, bury these fighters, and put them in peace"

After speaking, the voice gradually became quieter, and he looked at them anxiously with his wife and children in his arms.

After hearing what he said, the general's eyes were dimmed, he fixedly looked at the family, and his eyes slowly fell on the wooden box on Xu Da's back.

He suddenly waved his hand, called two small soldiers, and ordered: "Check!"

check?
What to check?
Wang Dayou's heart skipped a beat, he felt bad, he saw Xu Da's family searching for the corpse last night, and got a lot of valuables, which should be put in the wooden box on Xu Da's body.

If this is found out, what will happen?

Wang Dayou went to see Xu Da in a hurry, and when he saw Xu Da also had a flustered face, he was so shocked that he broke out in a cold sweat.

His flustered expression made the general see clearly, and his face, which had just eased up a little bit, sank.The tiger's eyes widened, and a sense of oppression suddenly rose, only to see Wang Dayou lower his head and close his eyes in despair.

However, when the wooden box was shaken out, there was only a piece of silk, a money bag, and some scattered scissors, needles and threads and other small items.

Wang Dayou secretly widened his eyes, what about those objects?Where did it go?

He couldn't help trembling, suddenly felt that he knew too much, and felt even more uneasy.

No suspicious items were found, the general looked over coldly, Xu Da spread his arms to protect his "weak" wives and children and stepped back, stammering:

"The small, small property is here. If the general wants, if he likes it, then, just take it and give the soldiers a little wine. It's right that the small one has made a wish for his father."

As he said that, he took the initiative to pull Xu Dalang, and asked him to throw out his luggage, and waited honestly to be searched.

This honest and pitiful appearance seemed to regard them as robbers, which made the general very irritable.

The two soldiers picked up the luggage bag and searched it again, and found out some torn sackcloth, an old bedding, a pot, several bowls, and a small bag of rice.

It's just such rags, not to mention the general, even the two little soldiers who searched for it didn't look up to them.

They were a little interested in that piece of silk, but they didn't dare to take any action unless the general gave an order.

The wind wafted over with a strong smell of iron rust, adding to the already dignified atmosphere a bit weird.

The two sides just looked at me and I looked at you for half a minute before I heard the general say:

"This place intersects with the territory of the Black Rock Army of the Southern Xiongnu. The Xiongnu often turn into bandits and come to harass them. It's ridiculous that you want to go to Hejian County just because of you!"

What do you mean by this?

Xu Da raised his head, and saw that the general waved his hand, dividing the circle surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside.

A small group of people stood up, and a small leader urged Xu Da impatiently: "Follow me!"

"Where are you going?" Xu Da asked cautiously.

I thought to myself, don't drag their family outside to be executed!
The little leader gave Xu Da a sideways look, "Come as soon as you are told, stop talking nonsense!"

Seeing that they were about to draw their swords, Xu Da and Wang Shi secretly looked at each other, intending to follow up and have a look first, maybe this is also a chance to escape.

It's just that they had just taken two steps when the general stopped him again: "Come back!"

Xu Da turned his head "tremblingly", and the two search soldiers handed over their luggage and wooden boxes, and put back all the things that were poured out just now, not a lot of money.

Xu Da couldn't understand such an operation. He glanced at the general and saw that he raised his chin to signal for him to take it, so he obediently took the wooden box and luggage back.

The two families anxiously followed the small group of people and left the encirclement, and then the little leader asked: "Will you know how to ride horses?"

Xu Da thought for a while, he was an honest small farmer and shouldn't be able to ride a horse, so he shook his head.

"What annoyance, why did my lord leave this kind of thing to me!" The little leader muttered a few words irritably, winking at the soldiers next to him.

Six soldiers rode over, and one of them reached out to grab sister Xu Yue. If Xu Yue hadn't reacted quickly, Xu Dalang would have jumped up and wrung her head off.

"Brother, it's okay." After Xu Yue softly comforted her brother, she was immediately lifted onto the horse's back.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Da, Wang Shi, Xu Dalang, and Wang Da had a family of four, and none of them was left behind.

These soldiers took them on the horse, turned around and ran towards the official road, looking at that direction, it was heading to Hejian.

The strong wind mixed with yellow sand hit their faces, Xu Yue and Xu Erniang were so blown that they couldn't open their eyes.

The soldier clamped the two of them in front of him. He had no idea of ​​caring for human cubs. He wanted to speed up the horse as fast as possible. In order not to be thrown away by the horse, the two sisters Xu Yue could only hold on tightly. The saddle in front of him.

In this way, the two families were led by the horse team for fifty miles, and were sent from the border of Jizhou to the border of Hejian County.

Those soldiers put them down, turned around and left, billowing dust and smoke all the way away.
