Chapter 24 Going to Julu County

Du Ji was holding the clothes in his hand and suddenly felt in trouble. It was raining heavily outside. How could he change his clothes without a hidden place?

Wang Lei said: "I am in urgent need of power, Brother Bo Hou will give it a moment."

Du Ji is a humble gentleman, a gentleman. In front of Wang Lei, he felt embarrassed and the clothes he held in his hand felt hot and very difficult. Wang Lei understood that the scholar's face was thin and his eyes turned, and he thought of a solution, "Since Brother Bo Hou is embarrassed, just turn around and face the curtain of the carriage, so that he just turns his back to us."

Du Ji's face was happy, thinking that this idea was good.

Although he was suspected of stealing the bell with his ears, he was blocked at least. He turned around and carried him over, took off his wet clothes and changed into the old man's clothes.

The old man and Du Ji have similar figures, just right.

Du Ji Chang sighed and bowed, "Young Master reached out to help. Du Ji still doesn't know the name of your son. How dare you ask about your surname?"

"Wang Lei is here!"

Wang Lei changed his tone and asked, "Brother Bo Hou is rushing in the rain, where are you going?"

Du Ji said: "The Central Plains are in full swing, so I will go to Liaodong to take refuge."

Wang Lei said 'oh', without commenting, and then paused, and said: "The journey from Jizhou to Liaodong is long, especially in the south of Julu County, and you are still driving north. Next, you need Zhongshan Kingdom, then enter Fanyang County, Youzhou, then go to Zhuo County, Ji County, and then east to reach Youbeiping, Liaodong. This is not a long way, it is quite long!"

Du Ji was surprised. Unexpectedly, Wang Lei was so familiar with the route to Liaodong. He smiled slightly and sighed: "My brother is right, and it is indeed a long way to Liaodong."

Wang Lei changed the topic again and said with a smile: "I go north to Zhongshan Country and can walk another distance with Brother Bohou. Anyway, I have two carriages, which can accommodate Brother Bohou and the old lady. Let's go north together."

Du Ji quickly refused: "How can you be so embarrassed!"

Wang Lei said: "Meeting is fate. Brother Bo Hou should not refuse. This matter has been decided."

Du Ji said gratefully: "It is better to obey your orders than respect, thank you brother."

"Brother Bo Hou is welcome!"

Wang Lei chuckled in his heart. It was his chance to keep Du Ji. The old man sat next to Wang Lei, opened his eyes and smiled. The expression in his eyes seemed to have seen through Wang Lei's thoughts. Wang Lei turned a blind eye. The old man couldn't figure him out now, but why didn't he understand the old man? This old man was quite mysterious.

Du Ji asked, "Is there anything wrong with my brother going north to Zhongshan Country?"

Wang Lei casually replied: "Han Fu, the governor of Jizhou, appointed me as the county magistrate of Wuji County. This time I went north to Zhongshan Kingdom to take up my post."

"ah!!"

Du Ji exclaimed, his face full of surprise.

The person in front of me was actually a county magistrate.

When he saw Wang Lei's burly and strong body, he subconsciously classified Wang Lei as a hero, and did not regard Wang Lei as a person with status. Du Ji realized his incompetence and immediately said: "My brother should be less than 20 years old, but he is the head of a county, which is really admirable. Du Ji thought that he was proud to be the magistrate of Zheng County at the age of 20, but compared with his brother, he was really ashamed."

After saying something, Wang Lei felt very comfortable.

Wang Lei said modestly: "Brother Bo Hou has been awarded too much. This is the value of Lord Mu of the State. Otherwise, Wang Lei would be unable to serve as the head of a county."

Mr. Du muttered in his heart, this kid is so cunning!

Han Fu did not value it, it was clearly a killing person with a knife, but in Wang Lei's mouth it became a value it.

This kid is cunning!

The old man clearly showed a look of praise. As a person, you don’t have to tell the truth. If you understand it from another perspective, you will undoubtedly be better for yourself.

The thunderstorm in summer comes and goes quickly, and the heavy rain stops in an hour.

The sun emerges, and the golden sunshine shines down, shining everywhere.

The two carriages continued to rush to the county town of Nanhe County. Wang Lei and his party entered Nanhe County and had no food to be supplemented. The jerky, bread, etc. stored in the carriage had been consumed almost the same amount and needed food to be supplemented. In the evening, Wang Lei and his party arrived in Nanhe County with eight people, and Xiao Hao and his party went to the city to purchase food. Uncle Fu found a dilapidated Taoist temple outside the city to stay.

As the night was about to end, Xiaohao returned with a full load of food on his back.

"Crack!!"

The bonfire is burning, and the fire in the Taoist temple is bright.

Wang Lei, Du Ji and the old man sat next to the fire, Du Ji's mother, Guo Yu, Guo Queen, Xiao Hao and Fu Uncle were sitting not far away. After dinner, the old man looked at Wang Lei and said in a serious tone: "Hutou, we arrived in Nanhe County, and Julu County is on the east side of Nanhe County, not far from here. I have an old friend in Julu County, and I have to go and see him."

Wang Lei said without hesitation: "Old man is going, so we will turn around tomorrow and head to Julu County and rush north. The journey to Julu County is not far, and it will take up to one or two days at most."

After a pause, Wang Lei looked at Du Ji with apologized look on his face, "Brother Bo Hou, the old man is going to Julu County. I have to waste one or two more days. Please forgive me."

Du Ji shook his head and said, "It's okay, my mother and I are not in a hurry."

He followed Wang Lei to the north and ate Wang Lei's. As the saying goes, "People's mouth is short, so it is naturally difficult to refuse."

The old man stared at the burning bonfire and said with a slight silence: "The great wise and good teacher Zhang Jiao gathered in Julu to stir up trouble, which caused the war in Julu County. I haven't been there for many years. I don't know what it is like now and now?"

Wang Lei narrowed his eyes and calmed down instantly.

Du Ji threw a piece of branches into the fire and sighed: "Zhang Jiao gathered people to stir up trouble, and there were constant disputes everywhere, and the world was not peaceful. It was precisely because of the constant war that I took my mother to Liaodong to avoid the war."

Wang Lei shook his head slightly, not agreeing with Du Ji's statement, "Brother Bo Hou, wars are everywhere, and there is no pure land in the world. You think Liaodong is good, but you don't know that Liaodong is not a pure land. It is often attacked by the Huns and Wuhuan, and it is not a peaceful place."

Du Ji said: "Even so, it's better than staying in the Central Plains."

Wang Lei's face became serious and said in a deep voice: "Doesn't just hide, but what if Brother Bo Hou took the old lady to Liaodong and met the Huns? What should I do at that time? Should I rise up and resist? Or leave the rest of Liaodong and go into exile. At any time, hiding is not the best way, that is the way that only cowards will choose."

A word is like thunder trembling on the ground.

Du Ji changed color and his eyes looked at Wang Lei became unfriendly. Du Ji was very grateful for Wang Lei's help, but it did not mean that Du Ji agreed to Wang Lei's opinion. He said lightly: "I don't agree with the statement of Wang County Magistrate Wang."

Wang Lei's lips raised, with disdain, "Brother Bo Hou, please!"

In a word, a debate has already started against Du Ji.

If the two of them could not reach a common opinion, they would naturally have to discuss it. Du Ji was not an ordinary person. He stood up, lifted up his robe and knelt down, raised his head and chest, and looked serious, and was already ready for battle.

Wang Lei was the same, and the two sat opposite each other.
