Qingyan held the little leopard crawling around in the carriage in her arms and listened quietly to Chou Chou's non-stop description of the situation in the town.
Now it has developed to the point where the bandits have plundered some small courtyards and shops that seemed to be relatively good.
Most of them were gold, silver and jewelry that were easier to take away. Except for some locks and porcelain that were damaged, the damage was not excessive. After all, it takes a lot of effort to destroy them.
I didn't go in to look at some houses that looked very dilapidated. I guess I thought there was nothing valuable in those dilapidated yards, so I was too lazy to waste energy and time.
Two of the leaders are discussing to pull out those who are more elegantly dressed and examine them. Whether they are passing merchants or landowners, they have to get something out of their hands anyway.
Qingyan: "Then now they are going to attack those people?"
I also knew that those people couldn't be asking gently, and they would probably see blood when they came up, scaring everyone first.
"Are you going to take away the weapons from their hands now?"
Chou Chou shook his head, "Not now, I have to wait a while. My consciousness is not that accurate now, and those people may make mistakes if they are too scattered."
Qingyan couldn't see the situation over there and could only listen to Chou Chou's narration, so she was a little nervous.
Just like when watching TV, watching those gunfight movies, the protagonists in them always talk about waiting for the opportunity in times of crisis, but the time has not yet come. Every time she sees this kind of plot, she becomes anxious along with it, and it is the same now.
Suddenly Chou Chou said again: "Our wolf pack plan may not be used anymore."
Qingyan looked at it with some confusion, "What do you mean?"
Chou Chou: "A group of officers and soldiers came on the east road. They were quite large. They looked like regular troops. They should be the garrison that the merchant mentioned before."
Qingyan's eyes widened, "Didn't I say before that the garrison had left? Otherwise, these bandits wouldn't want to rob the prison. Not to mention force, just in terms of numbers, they would be attacking the stone with an egg."
Seeing that she didn't understand, Chou Chou said with an enigmatic face: "This is about talking about the art of war. This way of using soldiers has always been fictitious and real. Those who can be the generals of a state's defense are definitely not ordinary people. This is It is impossible not to understand a little bit about the art of military use.
Now that we know there is a fish that has slipped through the net, how could we leave so easily? Wouldn't that be putting the people of Yunling County directly under the butcher's knife? "
Qingyan thought about it. She had never thought about this before. It seemed that the ancients also knew how to fish and enforce the law. Of course, it was not necessarily true. It is estimated that the fishing and law enforcement were also waiting in the county to lure you into the urn.
I just didn't expect that this group of bandits would not forget to commit another wave of robberies at this time. It is estimated that there are spies watching along the way, so they will know what is going on here immediately.
The people over there should have received the news in advance. Yunling County is still a bit far away from here, at least twenty miles away, because Chou Chou's spiritual consciousness has not yet reached the county seat.
In later generations, twenty miles is nothing. If you drive without traffic jams, you can probably get there in a few minutes.
In today's era where transportation is basically based on walking, twenty miles is quite a long walk.
Qingyan said: "Even if the officers and soldiers come, we can't relax. You still have to pay attention to these things. If the bandits inside also find out that the officers and soldiers are coming, I'm afraid they will directly use the people in the town as hostages to negotiate terms with the officers and soldiers. ."
Chou Chou nodded, "Don't worry, I've been watching. Those officers and soldiers are still more than ten miles away from here. Even if they get closer, it will take twenty or thirty minutes. By the time they come, maybe everything will be done here.
I still have to pay attention. As soon as the bandits make a move, I will put away their weapons and throw the weapons on the ground before the officers and soldiers arrive. Even if the gang says it, the officers and soldiers may not believe it. "
Even if you believe it, it doesn't matter. Anyway, if you don't think about it, you probably think it's some kind of god appearing on its head.
After waiting for a while, Chou Chou said that they were just threatening, and some people told them about the property hidden at home. It didn't intensify, so it just watched quietly.
After almost ten minutes, Chou Chou suddenly said: "Damn! No way? What a coincidence!"
Qingyan was startled by its sudden sound and said quickly: "What's wrong? What's wrong?"
Chou Chou glanced at her and said with some meaning in his eyes: "Now there is news, I don't know whether it is good news or bad news."
Qingyan: "Stop being so secretive. Whether it's good news or bad news, tell me."
Chou Chou nodded and said: "The good news is that we have indeed returned to the previous time and space, and we will meet acquaintances."
Qingyan was overjoyed, "That's great, so we don't have to worry about time changes in future generations! This is not bad news. By the way, who is the acquaintance?"
“The good news is that the current time point should be many years from now, as little as five or six years or more than ten years.
I can't tell which time it is now. I just thought it was the wrong season, but now it's not even the right year.
These are what you can see on that acquaintance. The traces of time on his body are too obvious. Why don't you guess who it is. "
Qingyan was a little stunned, pushing back so many years? That would be troublesome. She, Chou Chou and Little Leopard have not changed. Once they meet someone they know, they really can't explain it and they don't dare to recognize each other.
There are also the acquaintances she met now. Qingyan thought for a while, they should not be a few children and everyone in Yangjiaping. Chou Chou said that it was many years later, and the children must have changed, and it should be difficult to recognize them.
Another one is that it says traces of time, so it must be an adult. The reason why people in Yangjiaping were excluded is because people in ancient times had short lifespans. People in Yangjiaping were considered old people at that time, and they might not survive now. Even if they live long enough now, they shouldn’t have traveled so far. .
Chou Chou didn’t say it before. It’s probably not the people in the town. It’s most likely the officers and soldiers who just came over...
Qingyan guessed: "You're not talking about the officers and soldiers who are acquaintances of ours, are you?"
Chou Chou nodded, "Yes, among the officers and soldiers."
Speaking of being a soldier, the first thing Qingyan thought of was Li Hao and Vice General Wang. Even more than ten years later, Li Hao should still be in the prime of life. There is only one trace of time.
"Is it Deputy General Wang Linyan?"
Chou Chou nodded, "Smart, that's him. He is much older than when we saw him before. He looked like a middle-aged man before, although he shouldn't have been too old at that time. After all, people in ancient times looked older than their actual age. Older.
His hair is now gray, and his face has a lot of wrinkles, but his appearance has not changed, and you can still see it. As for why he came here, it is not clear.
He was walking at the front. He should be the leader. He was probably the Qinzhou garrison or a subordinate sent by the garrison general. "
These are just guesses, but there is a high probability that the garrison general will not personally lead his troops to suppress the bandits. The most likely thing is that Deputy General Wang is still a deputy general.
If this is the case, it is very likely that he is still with Li Hao's father or second brother. General Li may be sent to Qinzhou as a guard, and that makes sense.
However, many years have passed, and Deputy General Wang has not yet been promoted, and he is really not doing well.
Of course, ancient people are different from modern people. Some people are really die-hard loyal, the kind who follow a master or boss until death.
Chou Chou observed that side for a while, and then said to Qingyan again: "I just heard the soldiers he led call him Deputy General Wang. It seems that he is still Deputy General, and his position has not changed."
Qingyan sighed. For them, only a few days had passed, but many years had passed for Vice Admiral Wang and Li Hao. It was really magical.
Unexpectedly, they just entered the time and space rift once, and almost changed their minds when they came out. But now, it would be difficult for her to meet each other.
Although the other party may not be able to remember her, after all, they only had a one-time relationship, and they separated after a few words at that time, and the other party may not be able to remember her appearance.
But it’s not necessarily true that ChouChou still has a little leopard. After all, the other party has hugged a little leopard, and ChouChou’s appearance is quite memorable, so it’s best not to take risks and just help secretly. After all, He's an acquaintance.
In her mind, acquaintances are considered half of her own. Even if the gangsters are not that vicious, she will still help, not to mention those who are bad people themselves.
But now that she knew that they were still in the original time and space, she felt relieved.
At least there is no need to ask around what dynasty it is now, otherwise people will think it is strange if you ask anyone. Now you only need to know how many years it is.
The Five Dynasties is not a long time. If more than six years have passed, it should be the Later Han Dynasty or the Later Zhou Dynasty.
The Later Jin Dynasty only lasted for about ten years, and Shi Jingtang died after only six years in office, so it's really hard to say which dynasty it was.
Of course, they have discovered before that this time and space is different from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms in history. There may be changes in the middle. It is not the order in memory, or it may have directly changed into another dynasty.
Anyway, what is certain is that it should be before the Southern Song Dynasty, because the coins of the Tang Dynasty were usable before the Southern Song Dynasty.
Those copper plates could no longer be used after the Southern Song Dynasty, so the current time should be in between. Anyway, the Five Dynasties ended in 960, so there were not many years in total.
Thinking of this, Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't really want to enter the era of great unification now, or have already entered a time when the system was more rigorous and sound.
If that happens, there will be a lot of restrictions, and it will be inconvenient for them to walk around. Even if they have household registration, they still need a road guide to go to distant places, which is very inconvenient.
In troubled times, although it is easy to encounter danger, it has no impact on her and Chou Chou at all. Not only will they not be injured, but it will make it easier for them to run around.
Qingyan was still thinking wildly when she heard Chou Chou also say in a sighing tone: "I don't know what happened to that boy Li Hao. Is he already married and having children? He is even going to have grandchildren. He even chased you back then. Well, I don’t know if I still remember you.”
Upon hearing this, Qingyan's face suddenly turned red.
Somewhat embarrassed, he pushed Chou Chou with his finger and said, "What are you talking about? He probably has never met a girl with my personality before, so he was just impulsive."
Although she didn't mean that to Li Hao, after all, he was a boy who had expressed affection for her, so she still felt a little special in her heart. Thinking that the other person might have become a middle-aged uncle, she felt a little strange in her heart.
How should I put it, although I haven't met each other yet, I still have a feeling that things are different, as if I am getting old soon, after all, they were the same age before.
Of course, this feeling came and went quickly, and she was soon forgotten.
Because Chou Chou said that Vice General Wang's side was already two or three miles away, the large army stopped and sent a few men as forwards to sneak over here.
On his side, he found a low-lying place for the large troops to hide, probably because they were afraid of rushing directly to scare the snakes, and also to prevent these bandits from jumping over the wall.
Then Chou Chou shouted again: "Damn! These people actually found out!"
Qingyan hurriedly asked: "What's going on? Did the bandits find out?"
Chou Chou had no time to answer her, so he just said "wait a moment" and closed his eyes.
Qingyan could only worry on one side. She wanted to climb up the slope to have a look over there, but she also knew that from such a long distance, unless there was a big movement, she couldn't see anything.
A few minutes passed before Chou Chou said: "I was just concentrating on collecting their weapons, so there should be no problem now. Before, I only paid attention to the town and the east side, so I kind of ignored some details.
There were actually two people standing guard on the trees outside the town. They should have seen Deputy General Wang bringing people over from a distance. After all, a team of several hundred people could tell some clues even from a distance.
One of the two people just ran into the town and told the bandits to leave quickly. The bandits were a little confused for a while, but they were quickly calmed down by the leader and prepared to leave directly.
There were a few bad-tempered people who casually stabbed people with knives and planned to kill a few people to vent their anger, so I put away all the weapons in their hands and chopped off the legs of those people and the two leaders with a knife.
A few people who were willing to sacrifice their lives and wealth were still packing the stolen property and preparing to take it away. A dozen people tore down the door panels of several shops and prepared to carry the two leaders and the wounded people away.
Those people almost fled in all directions. A dozen of them came to our side, and the rest went to the south and some to the north.
With this group of people scattered, not only is it difficult for the officers and soldiers to capture them, but it is also difficult for us to deal with them. Even if we let the wolves hunt them, there will be no way to control them from all directions. "
Not to mention that its spiritual consciousness is not that strong now, even if it has returned to its previous best state, it is not easy to divide its spiritual consciousness into several parts to control wild beasts. This is not its innate magical power.
