"Yan'er, Miss Shen, wake up quickly." A young man dressed as a herdsman came over with a sword. He said, "They are coming, we must be prepared first."
The two women sleeping in the tent rubbed their eyes, then looked outside, and sure enough they found a group of people approaching not far away. They immediately walked out of the tent and brought the horses first, leaving the young man alone to pack up the tent.
But after a moment, the team of people arrived in response. They have no flags, only a few scattered people, and their armor is not uniform. Some parts are missing, or only the breastplate is complete, and the rest of the body is still wearing thin cloth.
The several thin horses under them were withered and terrible, obviously they had never been used as military horses, but they still rode out.
Murong Yan and Shen Qiongzhi were stopped by someone. The three of them chattered a few words, which were all Xianbei dialects that the Han people could not understand. Then the soldier turned back to find Bai Feng's position and shouted. .
"Hey, did you all escape from Yuyi Town?"
Bai Feng picked up a pile of sundries and stood up, and replied: "Master, we sneaked out last night while the guards were changing the guard, and were about to go to the Central Plains to escape the war."
"What a bullshit military master!" The boy spat on the ground, his tone full of disdain, and said, "I'm just a refugee with nowhere to go, just like you." He slightly lifted his dark golden hair He took care of his hair and put it back into a ponytail, and continued: "We happened to be patrolling here. If you don't mind, come to our place to rest today. There are quite a few thieves around here."
"Okay, that's great!" Bai Feng put down the chores in his hands and stood there and bowed repeatedly. After a while, several other boys helped him pack everything.
After everyone was ready, they all got on their horses. Murong Yan and Shen Qiongzhi rode on a horse and followed at the end. Bai Feng and the leader of the team walked side by side. The two of them laughed and talked endlessly.
"Both girls are your wives?" The man with dark blond hair suddenly sneered: "You boy, you are so beautiful!"
Bai Feng hurriedly explained: "No, of course not. The one wearing the veil is my wife, and the one without the veil is my wife's sister."
"You are also the breadwinner of the family..." He nodded to express his understanding, and then said: "Everyone in my family is dead, and I am the only one left. But this kind of thing is not that unusual in our place."
Bai Feng saw that the other party smiled easily, so he echoed and continued.
As they talked, they rode around several high slopes, not seeing a single person along the way. There were only gravel and weeds in the wilderness. The grass here was dry and yellow, and even the horses were unwilling to eat it. They continued walking, facing the steaming hot wind, until the terrain became flatter and flatter before they saw camps emerging in the distance.
No camp was built here. Hundreds of simple tents were randomly set up here. Bai Feng and his party did not take any precautions and did not cause any sensation. Like a harmless breeze, they had already passed by many people before they were noticed. People's body.
Soon, they came to a slightly more heavily guarded camp, and everyone dismounted and went to see the leader in the camp.
"Brother, we found three people who were fleeing during our routine patrol today." The young man with dark blond hair said, "According to your usual instructions, I brought them here." After that, he let himself go. Feng and others recommended him.
"Is it you?" The leader exclaimed, "I recognize you. We met once outside Huaishuo Town."
"Who are you?" Bai Feng was suspicious for a moment, pretending to have unclear memory, but not knowing how passionate the other party was, he immediately came over and said, "Come and sit down, we have to catch up on old times."
Shen Qiongzhi didn't know what the two of them had experienced, so he asked Murong Yan, "Are they familiar with each other?"
"No, I don't know either." Murong Yan smiled as she saw Bai Feng sitting at the head of the table holding hands with the leader. While they were drinking and drinking, she couldn't help but recall the night they left Huaishuo Town.
"Brother, thanks to the little food and grass you gave us, we have survived until today!" The leader drank a glass of wine and continued: "You really don't remember me? I am 'Yixiao Huangquan'! This is my name , you won’t forget it, right?”
"Are you smiling at the underworld?" Bai Feng faced the wine glass held by the other party, shaking his head repeatedly to show that he was too drunk, "Brother, I may have really forgotten."
Yixiao Huangquan said: "Oh, don't be afraid! Even if we just met today! My name is 'Huang Yixiao', do you know the name of the young hero?"
"Bai Feng, a nobody."
After hearing this, Huang Yixiao said arrogantly: "Okay! What a nobody, hahaha... It's this nobody who saved all our brothers! Let's all toast to Young Master Bai."
"Okay!" All the servants said in unison and came to receive the wine and toast.
Seeing this, Shen Qiongzhi couldn't help but look at Bai Feng with admiration. How could the "crouching dragon" in the academy suddenly be respected by so many strangers? Then she asked Murong Yan again: "Yan'er, what did Brother Feng do to make him suddenly become so majestic?"
"It's just some trivial matters. We all rely on big brother Huang Yixiao to repay his kindness. How can we little people dare to reach high?" As soon as Murong Yan said these words, Huang Yixiao immediately denied it: "No, no, no, how can this be a trivial matter!"
Huang Yixiao put down his wine glass, politely walked up to Murong Yan and Shen Qiongzhi, bowed their hands and said, "Girl, I seem to have seen you that night. You must be Bai Shaoxia's wife, right? Then this one …”
"I...my name is Shen Qiongzhi."
Huang Yi smiled and said: "Okay, I was so selfless just now that I forgot to give you two seats."
"No need." Murong Yan said: "We are here to rest, and we are not here to claim credit. Brother Feng, have you finished saying hello?"
"Well, that's right." Bai Feng said, then stood up and bowed his hands to Huang Yixiao and said, "Brother Huang, I appreciate your kindness."
Shen Qiongzhi stood there and was puzzled, "Why do the couple still reject other people's kindness so much when they are so respected?"
"Oh, you two stay!" Huang Yixiao watched Bai Feng and Murong Yan leave the camp, but there was nothing he could do to make them stay: "I also want to take you to inspect the camp! I now have thousands of people and plenty of food and grass. There’s no need to flee to the Central Plains!”
Shen Qiongzhi also stood by Huang Yixiao's side and said together: "Yan'er, Brother Feng, Brother Huang is so good to us, why do you want to leave?"
"Sister Qiongzhi, please stop making trouble." Murong Yan retorted indifferently: "They are gangsters. We just want to make a living. We don't agree with each other. Do you want to fight and kill for the rest of your life?"
After hearing this, Shen Qiongzhi immediately ran out of the tent, grabbed Murong Yan's clothes, and whispered: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I thought they were some good people..."
"Hehe." Murong Yan smiled meaningfully, "You didn't ask me, either?" After talking, the two girls left the place with Bai Feng, leaving Huang Yixiao alone to vent his anger by smashing the wine glass. Swearing, no one else could stop him.
