Disastrous year!Before the whole family is wiped out, a little blessing falls from the sky!
Chapter 444: Enjoying the Suffering
For a time, the people working by the stream were replaced by men. The women were naturally happy, but they knew better that what brought them all this was not the true love of men, but the money-making skills they learned!
This incident was like a seed planted in their hearts, which slowly began to take root and sprout. So much so that later, female head of household became a unique "trend" here in Tai'an County!
Of course, this is a story for another day!
Mr. Tai came out of the cave with a large wicker basket on his back. For safety reasons, he ordered ten of the Sixth Prince's guards, plus weighers and other four veterans, intending to rush back all the way.
There are hundreds of people, old and young, and more than 200 young and old gathered here in the valley. As long as you act more cautiously, even hundreds of Rakshasa devils will not dare to take action, let alone the men in black coming again.
Liu Dongniang steamed two baskets of steamed buns for Yongan. They were frozen and hard and could be eaten after being heated up in the military camp.
Yang Lihua prepared a pair of thick cotton boots for Yong'an, the Sixth Prince, and He Xiong, hoping that they would not freeze their feet while running outside.
After everything was in order, everyone set off under the rising sun.
Everyone didn't know that the old man was going to the border. They thought he was guarding the village at the foot of the mountain, but they didn't take it seriously.
Only Sesame Ball followed the old man, whimpering and feeling extremely aggrieved.
Needless to say, it was left to look after the house, hoping to help give an early warning if there was any movement.
Zhuzhu didn't want to part with her "little friend" either, and kept promising, "Be good, Sesame Ball, and I will bring you a leg of lamb when I come back, a big leg of lamb!"
Sesame Ball could only sit in a squatting position, wagging its tail and sending the fat girl away without a trace!
In the border town, Chen Zhao had already gathered all the supplies. After counting them, he loaded them into the car and prepared to transport them out of the customs.
He holds the warrant issued by the general in his hand. It can be said that there is no obstruction here at the border and no one dares to stop him.
Seeing that it was getting dark soon, he shouted to his subordinates to hurry up and get ready. After finally reaching the checkpoint, there were quite a few people lined up in front of me, making them very noisy and anxious.
"What's going on? It's almost dark, but so many people are blocking the city gate?"
"I don't know either. It's the first time I encounter this situation. It seems they are all caravans."
Everyone had nothing to do, and when they got impatient, they started chatting.
Someone who knew the inside story began to show off and responded, "Don't you know it yet? I heard that the caravan entering the grassland was robbed by Rakshasa devils. Not only did they take away the things, but they also killed all the people. It's really tragic. .
When the news spread, all the caravans began to run back, fearing that they would be unlucky and lose their lives. "
"Ah, that's how it is, no wonder!" The people who heard it couldn't help but sigh, "It's really hard to explain the world. Nothing happened a few days ago. Rakshasa devils will go crazy if they say they are crazy!"
"Where are you talking about? You are like this. There is another big news. You don't know, right?" A man who looked like a manager threw another "big bomb", "There are Rakshasa devils not only outside the border, but also inside the border." They went to various villages to burn and kill, but they committed a lot of evil. Our master's family thought that nothing happened before and did not go south to escape. But this time they were frightened. They asked me to deliver a message to the young master at home, and they had to move quickly. !”
Sure enough, this news shocked everyone so much that they started shouting.
"What? Rakshasa devils have entered the prison!"
"How did they get in? Impossible!"
Not only did everyone not believe it, Chen Zhao didn't believe it either. Thinking of Tai Jiye who had returned home, and the young and old of Taijia Village, he was also very anxious. Just as he was about to ask the person who spoke carefully, he heard that there was a young boy. the voice shouted.
"Uncle Chen! Grandpa, I saw Uncle Chen!"
Chen Zhao suddenly turned around, and saw a fat girl wrapped up like a cotton ball, lying on the edge of the wicker basket, stretching out her little hands and trying to point at him. Zhuzhu? !
Chen Zhao was ecstatic and rushed over directly.
"Zhuzhu! Uncle!"
Mr. Tai was riding Dahei, holding Dabai by the hand. Perhaps he disliked the crowds and the heavy smell, so both the horse and his wife snorted irritably.
He stretched out his hand to pat this one and touch that one. He never thought that his granddaughter's sharp eyes would recognize Chen Zhao!
"Oh, Chen Zhao, why are you here! What a coincidence!"
Chen Zhao looked at the old man and Zhuzhu carefully from one glance to the next, and then saw that the guards next to him were all acquaintances. He breathed a long sigh of relief and responded, "Uncle, it's great that you are okay! I just heard the news that Guan There’s civil unrest!”
Mr. Tai glanced around and saw that someone was already looking over curiously. He said, "I'm not busy with this matter. I want to leave the customs. Do you have any ideas? Let's talk about it later."
Chen Zhao nodded immediately and took out the warrant.
Immediately at the city gate, all the caravans and people made way for them.
After leaving the city and heading all the way to the military camp, Mr. Tai briefly talked about the Rakshasa devils who appeared in Tai'an, burning, killing and looting.
Chen Zhao and others frowned when they heard this and couldn't help cursing.
"These Rakshasa devils are so wicked. They couldn't defeat the border guards, so they went in to seek misfortune on the common people!"
"Yes, but how did they get in? Is there a loophole in the border defense?"
This question also troubled the general and He Xiong.
"On patrol every three days, how did the Rakshasa devils get into the pass?" He Xiong walked around angrily, his face livid, "Fortunately, Tai'an County was not deceived, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable."
The general also frowned and responded coldly, "Even if nothing happened in Tai'an County, at least hundreds of people in the surrounding areas were killed and injured, and more than a dozen villages were burned down! Fortunately, Tunhe Guards responded quickly, otherwise this would have happened A group of Rakshasa devils are probably going to kill them in Kyoto!"
He Xiong took pleasure in his misery and said jokingly, "That's okay, let those idiots in Kyoto see how powerful the Rakshasa Japs are, so that they won't be swatted to death like flies in their mouths!"
"Check all the outposts carefully. There must be something wrong! There is no one to respond internally. It is impossible for so many Rakshasa devils to sneak into the pass quietly!"
The general issued an order, and a war was about to begin at this time. It would be most foolish to start internal strife. But if this hidden danger is not blocked, the entire battle may fall short at a critical moment!
He Xiong immediately accepted the order and said, "General, don't worry, I am fully responsible for this matter, and I will definitely find out the traitor! Today, six outposts sent people back to collect food, I will start with them first!"
After that, he hurried out.
At this time, Chen Zhao, Mr. Tai and others had already arrived outside the camp and dismounted one after another.
Zhuzhu had been squatting in the basket for a day, and she had long since become impatient. She wanted to go down to the ground to play, but the old man was afraid that there would be collisions due to the crowd, so he put her on Dahei's back.
Dahei and Dabai were exhausted after running all the way, so they strolled around slowly, nibbling on the dead grass nearby.
Zhuzhu came here for the first time and looked curiously into the military camp.
Chen Zhao reported to the soldiers guarding the gate and waited for Chen Zhao's personal guards to come and pick them up.
At this time, a group of soldiers drove out a carriage with some sacks loaded on it and some horses tied to the back of the carriage. (End of chapter)
