After being scolded by Tartar, the two soldiers did not dare to say anything. They took big steps and began to search around.
The children felt the footsteps, as if each step was vibrating their little hearts. The pressure was so great that they were so frightened that they did not dare to take a breath and shrunk their bodies even smaller.
"I asked you to tidy up more often. Look, it's a mess! Why don't you just put it all in order for me to look for it and tidy it up at the same time?"
Tatar Wentai thought to himself that nothing important was lost, it was just a table of food that was eaten by someone. He probably took advantage of the festival and sneaked over from the village below to join in the fun and wanted to eat by the way, so he blamed The focus has changed from pursuing and arresting people to rectifying internal affairs.
The two soldiers felt aggrieved and muttered in a low voice: "We are not in charge of the inside in the first place. We are only responsible for guarding the door! It should be a woman to clean up the house! We don't have a woman here, so why should we be blamed? !”
"What woman? Can women protect our country? It's your business now, take care of it for me, or I won't slap you!"
Tartar Wentai threatened his subordinates with half-truths and half-falsehoods.
In fact, he was not willing to fight. These soldiers also knew in their hearts that the city lord only threatened them with words, but in his heart, it was too late to love them!
"yes!"
The two soldiers stuck out their tongues, chuckled, and continued working.
Watching their search, they were soon approaching the large upside-down shopping basket where Huodun was hiding, when a rapid barking of a dog came from outside the door.
"It's a Tatar dog! What happened? It barked so loudly? Go and have a look first!"
The voice of the dog that Tarwentai personally gave to his daughter was all too familiar to him. Normally this dog would easily stop barking, but now it was barking so loudly that it drowned out the music of the "Silk Clothes Festival". Something unusual must have happened.
"As you command!"
The two soldiers obeyed the order and ran out quickly. The pile they had just laid out in their hands fell into chaos again, as if they had not been cleaned up. In fact, it was even more messy than not.
"Don't panic, take it easy, remember, take it easy!"
Tartar Wentai disliked the lack of temperament of his soldiers, and often reminded them to act like "city lord guards".
"Yes, calmly, calmly!"
The two soldiers steadied their steps, took up their stance, held their heads high, and strode quickly toward the direction of the barking dogs with the ideal "neither humble nor arrogant" manner that the city lord had taught them.
The music also stopped, and there was a roar from the crowd, the barking of the Tartar dogs being the most prominent, clearly marking the location of the "accident".
"Get out of the way!"
When the two soldiers rushed over, too many people had gathered around them, making it difficult for them to approach easily. They had to give up their "demeanor" and "calmness" and yelled loudly to drive away some onlookers who were blocking the way.
In the middle of the crowd, a Tatar dog was stretching its neck and baring its teeth, barking at a chubby young man who was not dressed as a citizen of the city and wore a strange round thing over his eyes.
"Come on, come on, I'll give you an apple and stop barking!"
This young man looks not short at all individually, but compared with the citizens of this giant country, he is two sizes smaller. Holding an apple, trying to please the Tartar dog.
"Which dog likes to eat fruits? He really has some ideas!"
"What's that on his eyes?"
"He's pretty good-looking, except for the black mole on his left eyebrow which is a bit annoying."
"Look at his clothes, they are so ugly! There is no color at all!"
"His shoes are very interesting, they are so high! Maybe he thinks he is too short!"
…
People were talking a lot, thinking that such an unusual little person who suddenly appeared must have something to do with the five Tatar children.
In such a lively scene, the Tatar dog was there, but she was not. The passion for creation made her impulsive, regardless of anything else, and went back to make five sets of "cotton coats".
"Who are you? Where did you come from? Why are you dressed like this? Don't your parents have money to buy you clothes? Why are you so young!"
There was a soldier supervisor on duty who drove the dog away and was "soul-interrogating" the uninvited guest.
"Who am I? Where do I come from? Do I dress strangely? Do I have parents? I'm not a child, am I? I don't know what you are asking! I must be dreaming!"
The young man looked confused, but not afraid. Instead, he continued to ask: "Where are you? Why are you all so big? What a waste of fabric! How much do you have to eat for one meal!"
"Are you out of your mind? Why don't you know anything and you are still worried about whether we will have enough to eat? It's so weird!"
The person who asked the question thought the answer was funny, so he turned his eyes to everyone around him and asked with a smile.
"Haha! Yes, we are dreaming together, and you are alone? Who are you? You are so noble? You are so honorable!"
"You don't have to do drafts when you're bragging! I'm afraid this kid is out of his mind!"
"Quiet! Quiet! Everyone, be quiet. Lord City Lord, let us see what happened. Calm down, calm down, remember to be calm!"
The two guards walked up to the questioner and took over the chair.
"Recently, some strange things have happened here, and some children younger than you have appeared out of thin air. Since you said you don't know, it just so happens that we are looking for you too. Come with us! "
Although these two guards looked submissive in front of the city lord and sometimes pretended to be stupid, when they came outside, they immediately changed into a "just and righteous" look, full of majesty and credibility.
"Perhaps our city lord's daughter has the person you are looking for."
As soon as the young man heard that there was a show, he felt very happy. He clasped his fists in a circle and followed them to escape from the Tatar dogs and the curious crowds celebrating the "Silk Clothes Festival".
Over there, Tartar Wentai looked at the house that was being tidied up more and more messily, sighed, sat down again, poured himself a glass of wine, and calmed down the fire first.
"Calm down, calm down."
He muttered, also trying to persuade himself not to get angry, not to get angry.
Huodun looked towards Ta Wentai through the wicker gap of the big shopping basket, and couldn't help but also thought to himself: "Calm down, calm down".
Well now, I’ve been brainwashed!
Xin Wu and Shi Baoshan were hiding in a rolled mat and a clothes box respectively, while He Yixi hid behind the curtain. They were all brainwashed by this "calm, calm" thing, so they were not afraid. was found.
