Xiao Fuyuan looked at Mrs. Bai, then at Mrs. Zhen, and said softly: "Mom, don't worry, everyone will be fine, the fourth brother still wants to be the number one scholar.
"Why did my little aunt say that we will be fine if we are fine?" Saburo asked puzzledly.
Xiao Fuyuan thought for a while and smiled: "Because you are my family, if I say it's okay, it's okay."
"Sanlang, there is no reason, because aunt's words are most effective, and no one can go against aunt." Erlang said firmly.
Xiao Fuyuan nodded and gave Erlang an appreciative look.
I quickly stopped it, wondering if it would be too high-profile.
The Bai family received Xiao Fuyuan's assurance and felt relieved.
Mrs. Bai told the elder man and the younger ones: "Don't reveal your grandma's affairs to anyone, otherwise your legs will be broken."
Dalang, Erlang and Sanlang nodded in unison: "Tainai, don't worry, I won't say anything."
The few children who nodded fell in everyone's eyes, and everyone always felt that something was missing.
"Hey, why hasn't Fifth Brother come back yet?"
After being reminded by Xiao Fukuoka, the white wooden board slapped his thigh hard, but he forgot about Lao Wu. Why didn't he come back for so long?
Only then did everyone realize that the fifth child was missing among the nodding young men.
Xiaofuyuan supports his forehead!
"I'll go to the other side and ask."
Although everyone was relieved that Bai Zhaomei was following Xie Xiaolian, it would be better to ask if she didn't come back so late.
The lights were on in Azhen's room, and he stood in front of the screen with his hands behind his back.
"Has he been caught?" A Zhen asked coldly.
Wu Xiaoying put away her smile during the day and said with a solemn expression: "Back to the young master, my subordinates were incompetent and he was already dead when they were caught."
A Zhen: "Oh?"
Wu Xiaoying: "They were four dead soldiers. They had poison hidden under their tongues. They bit their tongues and committed suicide when they broke through."
A Zhen: "Are there any other clues?"
Wu Xiaoying: "No."
A Zhen frowned and remained silent: "Where are uncle and the others?"
Wu Xiaoying hesitated and said: "The general wants to use his body to lure the enemy."
"Send a few more people to follow. Uncle can't make any mistakes. And Xiao Yuanbao's fifth brother can't do it either."
A Zhen's frown was covered with worry, and then he waved his hand to let Wu Xiaoying go down.
Bai Dazhuang met Wu Xiaoying standing at the door of the mansion. The two exchanged a few words before Bai Dazhuang returned home.
"Is your fifth brother back?" Old Mrs. Bai asked.
"I saw Wu Xiaoying. He said that the fifth brother, Xie Xiaolian and the general were checking to see if there were any new mines in the iron mine area. There were many people on the mountain. The fifth brother was fine." Bai Dazhuang General Wu Xiaoying He told his family the news he got, and then looked at Xiao Fuyuan, carefully trying to get his sister's approval, "Sister, do you think your fifth brother is okay?"
Xiao Fuyuan smiled and said: "My fifth brother is fine, don't worry."
At this time, Nanguan Mountain was as quiet as a ghost, and Bai Zhaomei was walking in the mountain tremblingly.
He and his master Xie Xiaolian got separated.
Bai Zhaomei often goes to the mountains to pick wild fruits and hunt hares on weekdays. She is very familiar with the mountains, but this is the first time for him to come to the mine hidden deep in Nanguan Mountain.
Listening to the roar of wild beasts in the distance, I couldn't help but tremble with nervousness.
Suddenly something caught his feet, and under the pale moonlight, Bai Zhaomei discovered a dead man covered in blood and lifeless lying on the ground.
"Oh Mom!" The tongue sticking out from the broken neck frightened Bai Zhaomei so much that she fell over, rolled a few times, and rolled directly towards the cliff next to her.
Bai Zhaomei grabbed the bush all the way, but the sliding speed was too fast and she couldn't catch it.
"It's over." Bai Zhaomei was so heartbroken that she was about to die in the mountains.
Not to mention becoming a general, even a leading soldier collapsed under the cliff.
Just leave it to fate.
Bai Zhaomei closed her eyes and listened to the sound of the wind whistling by her ears.
There was a crackling sound, and Bai Zhaomei felt that she had hit something.
He opened his eyes and found that he had fallen into a bush, surrounded by cliffs, and he didn't know where he was.
Bai Zhaomei stood up and patted the grass on her butt.
After the tension relaxed, I realized that nothing happened to me when I rolled down the cliff. Even my arms and legs were not worn when they slid on the ground.
Bai Zhaomei laments that her luck is not so good!
He calmed down and saw a towering tree facing him. Through the moonlight, he could see that the trunk was hollow in the middle, with a big hole struck by lightning.
There was a faint smell of blood.
Bai Zhaomei boldly walked towards the big tree and saw a man covered in blood under the clear moonlight.
This person was none other than General Meng Zhixu.
"General Meng, what's wrong with you? You're bleeding so much?" Bai Zhaomei asked in a panic.
"He is Xiao Yuanbao's fifth brother and I can't die. Half of the blood on my body belongs to others." Meng Zhixu gasped for air.
Bai Zhaomei was temporarily relieved after hearing what he said.
He took off his clothes and tore them into strips of cloth, and squatted down to bandage Meng Zhexu's wound. Fortunately, the wound was not in a critical area.
Thinking of encountering a man in black with a broken neck on the road, Bai Zhaomei asked: "General, why did the man in black want to kill you?"
Meng Zhixu took a few breaths and said, "A bunch of thieves are so small that they are not worth mentioning."
It means that I don’t want to say it, so Bai Zhaomei keeps her mouth shut and doesn’t ask.
"Aren't you with your master? Why are you here on the cliff?" Meng Zhixu asked.
Speaking of this, Bai Zhaomei looked helpless.
He was originally patrolling the mines with his master. When they got tired, they fell asleep under a crooked neck tree. He was woken up by peeing and peed next to it. When he returned, he couldn't find the crooked neck tree.
I was confused and didn't know where I was going. I called the master but no one answered.
I kept encountering dead people in black clothes with broken necks, and then they were so frightened that they rolled down the cliff, but nothing happened when they rolled down the cliff.
What a combination of unlucky and lucky.
Bai Zhaomei suspected that God had deliberately sent him here to save Meng Zhixu.
"General, can you come out? You're bleeding so much, I'll take you down the mountain." Bai Zhaomei felt that even if Meng Zhixu resisted, he wouldn't be able to stop bleeding so much.
Besides, if the smell of blood attracts the wild boar and wolf, neither of them will be able to escape.
"I sprained my ankle," Meng Zhixu said.
"I am strong, I will carry you." Bai Zhaomei stretched out her hand to pull Meng Zhixu out of the cave.
Meng Zhixu: "."
Bai Zhaomei gritted her teeth and held Meng Zhixu on her shoulders. It was okay, it was lighter than the big stone at the door.
There are cliffs all around, the moon is hidden among the dark clouds, it is pitch black, there is only the sound of the wind.
Bai Zhaomei didn't know the road, so she carried Meng Zhixu along the steep stone wall tentatively.
Wu Xiaoying led a team of people and almost turned the entire mine over, but still no one was seen.
There was no way, if it hadn't been for Xiao Fuyuan being kidnapped into this mine, no one would have come at all. The entire mountain was covered with vegetation and boulders, and trying to find a person was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Not only did Wu Xiaoying find no one, but Meng Zhixu's personal guards also found no one.
Azhen was impatient waiting for the news, so he opened the door and walked to the yard to get some fresh air.
Soon the news reached A Zhen.
He ignored He Shun's obstruction and insisted on going up the mountain in person.
