After the house was confiscated, I relied on billions of dollars in supplies to become a group favor

Chapter 120 Zhang Zhizhou

Ruan He took out the lantern that had just been thrown into the space, smashed the shell, and then threw it heavily through the gap in the low wall.

The fire ignited the weeds in the corner and quickly started a prairie fire. Scattered firelight could be vaguely glimpsed through the cracks in the door.

"on fire!"

Ruan He shouted at the top of his lungs, and then quickly escaped into the space.

The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and the servants were shouting to put out the fire. They were running around and the shouts were getting louder and louder.

In order to prevent the burning of one house from attracting the people from Zhizhou Prefecture, Ruan He visited several more houses one after another and burned down all the nearby mansions of dignitaries.

After finishing all this, Ruan He hurried back to the inn and returned to the room where the family was.

When she pushed the door open, Mu Yunchao was standing at the door with an anxious face. It was obviously much quieter outside, and his sister-in-law was still not coming back, which made him a little worried.

"Sister-in-law... Brother, are they okay?" Seeing that Ruan He came back safe and sound, Mu Yunchao's anxious expression softened a little, and he quickly closed the door heavily before asking more questions.

"Creak..." There was a movement from the big cabinet, and Mrs. Mutai and the others got out of it safely.

Ruan He felt relieved after going out. It was already relatively safe here.

The most important reason why they can stay safely in this room is that the main target of the group of men in black is not on them.

"It's okay, someone will come to deal with it soon." Ruan He raised the corners of his lips slightly, showing a slightly relaxed look in the tense environment tonight.

When she goes out and messes around, there is no way she is doing something useless.

Mu Yunchao didn't know what his sister-in-law did when he ran out, so he could only nod his head blankly.

Sure enough, not long after, the shouts of the guards of Zhizhou Mansion came from outside, and the sound of swords clashing became more and more intense.

After a while, any big movement below disappeared.

"Come on, we can go down and have a look."

When they walked steadily to the lobby, they could see a large group of Zhizhou Prefecture guards in military uniforms in the distance, which was quite eye-catching.

Many officials were injured. When Ruan He walked over, he treated the wounds of the officials one by one with a simple potion made from spiritual spring water.

Among the officials, Wang Xiaoer's injury was the most serious. He was stabbed hard on the arm, creating a large incision.

"It hurts me so much!" He uttered an ouch, bared his teeth and screamed in front of his brothers without caring about the image, and kicked the body of the man in black under his feet.

Ruan He knelt down, cleaned his wound with spiritual spring water, wrapped a cloth to stop the bleeding, and then stood up.

After all, she didn't have any other medicinal materials in hand, so she could only temporarily disinfect and stop the bleeding.

However, the spiritual spring water is very effective. Next, Wang Xiaoer just needs to apply more medicine and wait for it to heal on its own.

"Your injury is quite serious. Don't move your arm much in the past few days. Apply gold sore medicine every morning and evening. Don't scratch the wound if it itches."

Wang Xiaoer nodded repeatedly and sat casually on the ground leaning against the wall. His face was pale due to excessive blood loss, and he closed his eyes to rest tiredly.

"Thank you, sister-in-law!" His voice was quite loud when he thanked her.

Ruan He was about to inquire about the situation of the Zhizhou guards when a familiar low and hoarse voice came from beside him.

"Is Madam okay?" Upon hearing this, Ruan He turned around, looked at Mu Yunxiao who was standing in the corner, and asked casually: "I'm okay, are you not injured?"

She looked Mu Yunxiao up and down to make sure he was still intact.

It has to be said that Mu Yunxiao came here from a battlefield after all. Surrounded by such a large group of men in black, he didn't even get a small wound.

However, after a night of sleepless nights and another night of fierce fighting, Mu Yunxiao's fatigue was clearly visible in his brows and eyes, and he raised his eyes to meet hers.

"Then let's go back to our room and rest..."

After all, the two of them are prisoners, and it is not good for them to stay outside.

Mu Yunxiao shook his head slightly, almost invisible, and turned his gaze to the side, landing not far away.

Naturally, he has important things to do if he stays here.

Ruan He followed his gaze and looked over, his eyes widened slightly in surprise, and he said softly: "That's..."

In front of the group of Zhizhou Mansion guards, there was a man standing. The man was wearing an official red robe, but his square and old face looked energetic.

At such an age and wearing such clothes, his identity is naturally clear.

Wang Xiaoer, who was sitting not far away, also heard his sister-in-law's low murmur. He curled his lips in displeasure and muttered complainingly: "That's Zhang Zhizhou. We just passed by and said we were sleeping. At this moment I actually made a special trip here..."

"Be careful what you say!" Lao Jiu pushed him, frowning and giving a serious warning.

That was Master Zhizhou. If he wanted to punish a small escort officer like Wang Xiaoer, it would be easy.

Ruan He stared thoughtfully at the white-haired and white-bearded Zhang Zhizhou, then turned to look at Mu Yunxiao, and both of them became quiet.

The two of them remained silent in tacit agreement, leaning against the wall and listening to the voices not far away.

Li Jiang also couldn't understand. The Zhizhou government had ignored them just now. Now, even the Zhizhou master had brought people over to help. He didn't know the reason for this.

No matter what, he finally had a chance to talk to Master Zhizhou.

Li Jiang stepped forward, took out his official badge, handed it over, and called out respectfully and politely: "I have seen the magistrate of the state in this lowly position."

He was an escort officer and belonged to the Ministry of War. Originally, he did not need to pay homage to the government, but the official rank of the magistrate was far above him, so he naturally had to be polite.

Without waiting for Zhang Zhizhou to say anything more, Li Jiang had already listed his intentions one by one. First, he hoped that the entire exiled team could live temporarily in Zhizhou Mansion. Second, he hoped that Zhizhou Mansion could send troops to replace them. Search for fugitives.

Zhang Zhizhou was surprisingly easy to talk to. After listening to Li Jiang's words, he slowly stroked his white beard and agreed one by one.

Li Jiang was naturally happy and thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you, Master Zhizhou, for understanding your humble position and being an escort officer.

"As a local magistrate in Tongzhou, it is my duty to help Mr. Li search for fugitives. You don't have to be polite."

Zhang Zhizhou coughed, his sharp eagle eyes flashed with sporadic smiles, and his old and powerful voice made it difficult to hear the emotion in it.

Mu Zhengbai didn't know what the news was, so he hurriedly ran out, eagerly came forward, and called out affectionately: "My father-in-law! Do you still remember me?"

Zhang Zhizhou looked at Mu Zhengbai who came up to him, laughed heartily and said, "My eldest uncle of the Zhang family, how could I forget?"
