Yao Yao couldn't hold it back and burst into laughter.
She waved her hands quickly, showed an apologetic expression, turned around, covered her mouth and laughed silently, her whole body shaking with laughter.
Gu Chen and the others could no longer hold their nerves, and they all held on to a poplar tree that had survived the fire, and laughed silently.
Helian Wenyuan was not in the mood to laugh, so he suppressed the thought of hitting someone and asked calmly: "Young Master, I really like Ah Hui, please help me."
Han Changmu suddenly smiled, his smile was slightly cold, the corners of his raised lips were playful, his thin lips were pursed, and he said nothing.
Yao Yao sneered with great tacit understanding: "Our young master doesn't even know who you are, so why should we help you and why should you be so unreasonable?"
Gu Chen also smiled and sarcastically said, "Of course it's because he looks ugly."
Yao Yao secretly gave Gu Chen a thumbs up.
After being severely scolded, Helian Wenyuan finally understood his situation. He was here to ask for help, and he must always have a begging attitude.
This group of people looked shabby and inconspicuous, but if they could spend five thousand taels to buy someone, they were certainly not ordinary people.
He wanted to get Meng Hui back, but he might not be able to do it with money and silk alone, so he had to find some other shortcuts.
Helian Wenyuan's smile became more and more charming: "My name is Helian Wenyuan." He raised his head and looked at the burned-out Hu shop, and said with a very sincere smile: "Are you guys in a hurry to find a place to stay? I'm afraid it's not easy to find someone in the middle of the night. If you don't mind it, you can spend the night in a humble house and find a suitable inn to stay in after dawn."
While the words were still lingering, Han Changmu responded very neatly: "Okay, I'll excuse you."
Hearing Han Changmu's promise to be so easy and neat, Helian Wenyuan hesitated. He carefully looked at the person in front of him. Although he did not know his name or identity, he looked extremely miserable, but his noble aura could not hide it. That kind of Nobility is the pride and nobility of someone who has been in a position of power for a long time. It is not what an ordinary business traveler should look like.
He cruised around the group of people in front of him and unexpectedly discovered an acquaintance.
The acquaintance also saw him, walked up to him quickly, and said with a surprised look on his face: "Brother Helian, why is it you?"
Helian Wenyuan suddenly felt that he had been plotted and fell into a huge trap. He could not climb out. He was still suffering. He twitched the corner of his mouth and smiled bitterly: "Brother Wang, it turns out to be you. "
It was originally a trap to invite you to the urn. One is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. Wang Xian smiled very calmly: "Brother Helian, this is my young master."
Helian Wenyuan felt that the thick smoke that had not dissipated rushed over him, choking him severely.
He barely suppressed the anger of being teased and twitched the corner of his mouth, as if he was mocking himself: "I don't know why you are teasing me like this."
Han Changmu looked innocent, tilted his head and smiled coldly: "I don't know where to start with this, brother."
Helian Wenyuan gritted his teeth so hard that if his hair hadn't been tied up with a crown, it would have become bald.
He used all his strength to restrain his furious anger, his eyes were red with anger, and he said word by word: "Young Master said you were not teasing me, so why did you buy Ah Hui?"
Han Changmu smiled: "I have fallen in love with Meng Hui, so it is natural to buy her. Why?" He hooked Meng Hui's chin: "Why, does she belong to my brother, or did I buy her with money?" Got her."
Helian Wenyuan choked on his words and felt depressed.
Wang Xian smiled hurriedly and said: "Brother Helian, brother Helian, look, you and our young master both want Meng Hui, so sit down and talk about what's going on with the cold wind blowing in this vent."
After saying that, he blinked at Helian Wenyuan several times.
Yao Yao also laughed and said, "Oh, big brother, it's very cold here. Let's take a walk. Where is your home? Take us to warm ourselves up."
Meng Hui covered her mouth and sneezed, then spoke softly: "Wenyuan, it's really cold here."
Helian Wenyuan nodded lovingly: "Okay, let's go back first, and we'll talk about it later." He turned around and saluted Han Changmu, a little more polite: "Anyway, I still want to thank you, Master, for rescuing A Hui." Fire pit.”
Han Changmu waved his hand: "Brother, you're welcome. My surname is Han and my name is Jiuchao."
It was just dawn, and the autumn frost was slowly getting heavier, making it extremely cold.
The cold wind was filled with coarse sand and gravel, and it hit my body, making me feel cold and painful.
The caravan travelers waiting to enter the city lined up from the city gate to the depths of the official road.
Helian Guangbo rode a camel in the queue, followed by a carriage, with Meng Ying sitting at the front.
The car curtain moved, revealing half of a delicate face. It was Meng Lan: "Guangbo, have you arrived in Suzhou City?"
Helian Guangbo turned around and said with a hearty smile: "We're here now, waiting to enter the city."
Meng Ying had never been to Suzhou City. The first time he saw the vast desert with yellow sand and gravel, he was very shocked. He was yearning for it and looked ahead for a moment: "Brother Helian, ahead is Suzhou City. Yet."
Helian Guangbo smiled and said: "Yes, after entering the city, you can take a stroll when you have time."
Meng Lan looked at Meng Ying and Helian Guangbo, and thought of Meng Hui whose whereabouts were unknown. She felt sad again and said softly: "Guangbo, after entering the city, where will we stay?"
Helian Guangbo smiled and said: "Don't worry, I have made arrangements and won't let you sleep on the street."
As he spoke, the city gate opened, and the garrison stood guard at the gate, checking the road documents one by one.
The sun climbed out of the clouds, and its red light fell on the team waiting to enter the city. Together with the team, it slowly moved forward.
A fire last night burned down almost half of the western half of the city. Those buildings that were already dilapidated and crumbling collapsed into large areas of white land.
Many homeless people became refugees. Some people found some useful things on the ruins and built simple shacks to barely survive.
It is obviously unrealistic to wait for the government to provide relief to build houses.
Some people can also think that the building was going to collapse and burn down, but fortunately the land is still there.
As long as a person is fine and has two hands to help with work, sooner or later he can build a new home, which should be stronger and more durable than the original one.
Winter is about to come. In the winter when dripping water turns to ice, it is obvious that shacks cannot last long. As a result, a large number of houses not far from the ruins have become incense, burned overnight. People whose houses collapsed rented houses here to stay temporarily.
The people of Suzhou, who have simple folk customs, did not take this opportunity to make a fortune. There were more people renting houses, but the housing rent did not increase. Some even more kind-hearted people saw that these people were really pitiful and had no wealth, so they even waived the housing rent. , let people live in vain, just do a good deed on that day.
There are more people renting houses here, but the few people who rented houses in the past are not so conspicuous.
Listening to the hustle and bustle inside and outside the courtyard, no one in the house came out to take a look. The renter couldn't help but feel a little strange.
The neighbors who knew the inside story hurriedly explained with a smile: "The young couple living in this house are preparing breakfast and getting up early to do business. I am afraid they have just come back to sleep."
The person who rented the house immediately became much more cautious, fearing that he would make a big noise and alarm others.
The people in the room were not sleeping, they were just listening to the noise outside without making a sound.
Three strong men were lying on the kang, and the young girl knelt on the kang, cleaning their wounds very neatly, applying gold sore medicine, and bandaging them.
The wound was bloody, and the golden sore medicine was sprinkled on it. The strong man was sweating coldly in pain, but he gritted his teeth and did not cry out in pain.
After the cooking was done, the young girl looked at the three people and said worriedly: "Brother, after so many brothers died and they were allowed to run away, how can we explain this matter to the young master? But the young master hid this from the Holy Master. If you do it, look back and investigate, the Holy Lord will not let us go."
One of the slightly handsome and strong men nodded, his face full of sorrow: "Yes, brother, it's easy to say that it will work out, but it doesn't work out. Even if the young master wants to save our brothers, he can't. ."
The strong man, whose face was wrapped sideways with a thin white cotton cloth, spat and cursed in a low voice: "You are so damn evil. How can such a powerful little lady come from you?" He pointed at his face, feeling pain. He bared his teeth and said, "Brother, look at her, look at how she looks at me. Damn it, how do you want me to treat my wife in the future?"
The bearded man looked at the few remnants of the soldiers and felt chills in his heart. He thought he would just kill a few people, just like before, not to mention ambushing so many crossbowmen. Even if he didn't succeed, there wouldn't be heavy casualties.
Who knew that little lady was so powerful, or what kind of hidden weapon she was using? She came and went without a trace, and the heads of those brothers flew away.
The young man who rushed out later was even more of a murderer. He was still protecting himself with one hand, but when he chopped down his brothers, it was like chopping a honeydew melon. The red blood splattered out, and he was terrified just looking at it.
He swallowed, composed himself, and said, "Okay, don't talk anymore. I'll just stay here with Fourth Sister to recuperate these days. Don't go out wandering around if you have nothing to do. I'll go talk to the young master."
That could only be it. The three of them had no objections and nodded silently.
There was a gentle knock on the door, one short, one long, and then paused.
Hearing this movement, several people breathed a sigh of relief. The young girl hurriedly opened the door and welcomed in an equally young junior.
He carried the load into the house, dug out various wound medicines, and said with a sigh of relief: "The incident last night was too big, the city has been under martial law, only people are allowed in and out, and household registration documents are being checked door to door. "
Several people looked at each other, wondering whether this matter had caused such an uproar and even the government was alerted.
The young girl hurriedly packed up the blood-stained cloth clothes and put them in a charcoal basin to burn. She said calmly: "Brother, luckily we thought of it when we rented the house. Otherwise, there really would be no place to hide."
The bearded man nodded, helped each other get off the kang, and watched the young girl and the young man move the large cabinet on the kang.
