Chapter 209 No money
The King’s Banquet is also a farewell banquet.
On the third day after the banquet, Qi Yueran, Zhou Xing, and Wu Liangyan led the Chen army who followed them to fight for several places out of the city. The wolf trail was in the south, and the officials left the city from the south gate, and the people even left the city ten miles away. People's hearts were indeed unpredictable, but the people had a scale in their hearts. A basket of blue eggs and vegetables, and a piece of coarse cloth sewn by hand, were held in front of the soldiers through pairs of rough hands, and even the strong hearts would soften.
"Thank you aunt!"
"Auntie, go back quickly, don't send it."
"Uncle, thank you!"
...
"Children, thank you for your hard work, take care of yourself!"
...
Qi Yueran and other generals were already a little far away. The brigade was slowed down by the people who were seeing him off, but who would have to urge him? So he left the city early in the morning and walked out only thirty miles at sunset.
Today's supper is easy to cook, and the food provided by the people can be easily prepared and cooked.
After a simple meal, most of the soldiers on duty were arranged to stay in tents to rest. Today is the first day, and from tomorrow, I am afraid that I will marche again.
Qi Yueran got into her tent and lay down, unable to help but think about something again. Her physical condition must not be hidden from Zhou Xing and others. It is not the time to tell it out now, which is really a troublesome and embarrassing thing.
But finally leaving Jinzhou is a place where I am not. A stone in my heart has already landed. The prospect is still dangerous, but finally there is a nominal place for me to settle down, which is a good beginning.
This time, Qi Yueran slept very heavily until dawn when the loud warning from the soldiers came.
"There is an enemy attack!"
Qi Yueran was awakened. She only took off her coat while sleeping, and rushed out with her weapons.
There was a mess outside, and the soldiers took weapons to fight back. However, there was no sign of the enemy nearby, only continuous cold arrows. The vehicles in the middle of the camp had already lit a fire, and the soldiers took things and tried hard to put out the fire. The food could not be burned for a while, and Qi Yueran's two carts of cloth were unable to turn the sky. The dark red flames were filled with black smoke, which burned very vigorously.
"Don't save those cloths, it's important to save military rations first!" Qi Yueran shouted.
The soldiers who were putting out the fire had a little guilty feeling. The young lady was just like these things now, and they couldn't protect her.
Qi Yueran looked into the distance. The place where they were stationed was not far from the official road. There were not many trees nearby. The number of people who attacked the enemy would not be too many. They acted quickly and quickly evacuated after one strike. The purpose was not to kill people, but probably to harass them.
If you want to kill someone, this place is not suitable.
"Don't chase too far. If you get nothing within three miles, come back!" she shouted.
Zhou Xing walked upset: "Miss, what's the situation?" He couldn't see the situation, but in the future, these people would have to hand them over to her, while establishing authority for her, while also having to practice more.
"See if you can catch one or two live-actions. This place is not the best place to attack."
Zhou Xing also agreed with this view.
The soldiers had put out the fire on the grain bags and were quickly finding the spare bag to replace the burnt ones. Zhou Xing smiled bitterly: "It seems that we have to find a way to raise military pay."
Qi Yueran: "Uncle Zhou knows how to earn silver?"
Zhou Xing shook his head. He has specialized in his profession, but he is not a versatile person.
"I don't understand either, but we have people." Qi Yueran smiled mischievously, "There should be many rich people in the wolf tracks in the wasteland."
Wu Liangyan was coming over and snorted, "Miss is a promising lady, and she wants to get involved in the robbery?"
"Just just rob the rich and help the poor." On the wolf-tracking wasteland, ordinary people cannot gain a foothold, and those who can survive are not good people. Qi Yueran felt no pressure in his heart to squeeze those people.
Zhou Xing smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect that one day, my grand Qi family army would fall to steal things from the hands of bandits."
"In life, you should experience everything, so that you can get away with this experience. Uncle Zhou, you spent the first half of your life in the army, it's too boring."
"It's unreasonable." Wu Liangyan scolded him, but his eyes were filled with a doting smile. After experiencing so many things, nothing is more important than a cheerful heart! She smiled and plotted against others, and it was better than burying everything in her heart.
It was soon clear, and everyone simply collected the camp and prepared to go on the road. The soldiers who chased out quickly returned without any success, and no one was caught. Qi Yueran had been involved in this chaotic world since he left his master and had never been so disappointed. He was very unwilling to do so. He kept silent all the way and was thinking about countermeasures. While staying overnight, he arranged people to patrol within a radius of three miles, and no abnormalities appeared for three consecutive days.
On the afternoon of the fourth day, I came to Linyuan City, which was a big city in the south. Qi Yueran originally planned to sell two cars of cloth here for military funds. At this time, I could only think of other ways. Fortunately, in addition to those, there were many valuable items that were kept by her personal care. The precious ornaments given by Jin Yunpei, the bracelets given by the two wives of the Chen family, and the precious supplements such as ginseng sent by the noble ladies in the city when she was "cultivating".
Fortunately, these things were very valuable. She took a thick stack of silver notes and left the pawn shop and walked towards the grain shop she had just found out. There were no need to buy too much, and there were several towns on the way next.
She didn't know how much money she could make after she left, and Chaofeng, who was walking into the pawnshop with Xise on the opposite side, pulled the abacus beads and abacus, said: "Give me all the things that the girl just brought..."
The mate of the grain shop would help transport it out of the city. Qi Yueran watched them load the car and was about to leave the city together. Hou Saner, who was hiding in the dark, jumped out: "Miss, have a tail."
A cold light flashed in Qi Yueran's eyes: "Who?"
"I can't see it for the time being. You came out of the pawnshop, and I followed you and didn't have time to stare behind you.
Qi Yueran: "I'm confused, don't go and see him, what's the point of looking at me?"
Hou San'er whispered, "He's following again, and he's still holding the things you're selling."
Qi Yueran was stunned for a moment, and Hou San'er said again: "It doesn't look like a bad person."
"Not a bad guy, why do you follow us secretly?"
"Will someone protect you secretly?" Hou San'er smiled secretly, "No one has attacked these days and nights, maybe there are experts who secretly help you."
Qi Yueran waited for him: "Okay, you don't have to sleep tonight. Search for clues within ten miles of our army's garrison."
"Miss..." Hou San'er cried and said, "I am loyal, so why can't I understand the truth?"
Qi Yueran walked very quickly. She slept well these days and didn't notice anything at night, so she didn't know if what Hou San'er said was the truth. She only knew that her state was not suitable for fighting with others. She walked quickly and paused under her feet.
Hou San'er, who was following closely, almost hit her and looked in the direction she was looking at.
