The two of them rode the tiger and drove forward for a while, found a hidden place, and entered the space.
Food was already placed on the table. While eating, Ye Yutong said:
"Second brother, you can make more sorghum noodles and steamed buns these days, and choose smaller eggs and duck eggs to cook in a few pots."
Ye Mingzhe nodded, "I understand."
My sister is kind-hearted and should give it to the poor victims down the mountain.
The next section of the mountain road is not so peaceful. You will see some victims looking for food one after another, and there may also be nearby villagers.
The two of them tried their best to avoid those people. When they were near the foot of the mountain, they started to travel again at night and rested in the space during the day.
It was almost midnight when we arrived at the familiar road up the mountain.
They changed into tattered clothes, did not stop here, and rode the tiger on the small road to continue moving forward.
Looking at the nearby villages, Li Yunze's face was gloomy, and he signaled the tiger to stop.
"Tongtong, let's go to Guyuan Town first! How is the situation there?"
Ye Yutong glanced at him and said, "When we arrive at Guyuan Town, we will soon reach Prince Liang's Mansion in the Northwest. Do you have any other plans?"
She looked at the map that Uncle Lin brought over and the geographical location was very detailed, so she knew that after Guyuan Town was the residence of Prince Liang.
Ping An is changing his route to go there now. Could it be that he has some thoughts about Prince Liang?
Li Yunze smiled and said, "I heard before that King Liang had a large horse farm with many fine horses of very good breeds. Many dignitaries went to him with huge sums of money just to get a good horse. "
Ye Yutong asked suspiciously: "So? You want to go to Prince Liang to buy horses?"
"Now that we've come this far, why don't we buy a few and take them back to practice with the boys."
"In that case, what are you waiting for? Let's go!" How could Ye Yutong be willing to miss such a good opportunity?
Then the King of Liang exploited the people for his own selfish desires. He was not a good bird. Why should you be polite to him?
It's a day's journey to Guyuan Town. They rode tigers to get there in about an hour. They should be able to get there before dawn.
Li Yunze directly asked Tiger to go in the opposite direction, "Brother Tiger, I have to trouble you to run faster on this road."
There are also many disaster victims on the small road. It is best to let those people run past before they can react.
Although Brother Tiger is a bit arrogant, he has always been very reliable in business matters. When the two of them were seated, he rushed forward like lightning.
In less than an hour, they arrived at Guyuan Town.
It was still a while before dawn, so the two of them went into the space to have something to eat.
He wiped his face dirty again and prepared to go to the town at dawn and then rush to Prince Liang's Mansion in the evening.
Ye Mingxuan and Ye Mingzhe knew their plans and somewhat disapproved of their actions.
King Liang has been operating in the northwest for so many years and has countless expert guards under his command. It is not as easy to get in and out as the Tongpan Mansion in Qingzhou City.
Although my brother-in-law is powerful, my sister's martial arts skills are average. If they were discovered and had no time to escape, wouldn't the two of them be in danger?
Ye Mingxuan pondered for a while and said, "Brother-in-law, are you sure you can come out of Prince Liang's Mansion safely?"
Li Yunze said confidently: "No problem. This time I will explore the road first and get a few horses for you to ride. I will bring people over to buy the rest later."
"That's good. Those are all external things. The safety of you two is the most important."
Both brothers breathed a sigh of relief. Their brother-in-law had a sense of propriety. If he was not sure, he would not take his sister there.
Li Yunze is going to find out the details of King Liang first before he can judge how capable this opponent is?
But Ye Yutong didn't think so. Since he had already taken the risk, how could he possibly get a few horses back?
The mountain in her space is as big as a mountain. It is no problem to raise hundreds of horses. When the time comes, she will take them all in.
But she didn't say this, and planned to go there to see the situation, so as to save her two brothers from worry.
When the sky was dark, the four of them came out of the space together. Ye Mingxuan and Ye Mingzhe cannot be allowed to stay inside and work.
Now that they are all out, it is better to let them see the dangers of people outside, so that they can grow faster.
Probably because it is close to Prince Liang's Mansion, the security in Guyuan Town is pretty good, and many shops are open normally.
Although there are several large houses that are closed, there are still young men coming and going from time to time.
There were not many homeless people on the street. I only saw some elderly people and smaller children looking for food nearby.
Li Yunze looked at the relatively peaceful street, but he didn't even see a younger man. He must have been captured to be a young man.
The four of them were all wearing very tattered clothes. They walked directly to where the victims were staying and sat down there pretending to be weak.
"Young students, where did you come from?" a hunchbacked lady asked them in a low voice.
Ye Mingzhe said feebly: "Auntie, we came from Tongma Town. I heard that the conditions here are better, and we want to stutter here."
The old lady whispered: "Hey, why are you so brave? It looks like you are not young anymore. Get out of here quickly. If you are caught and made into a young man, you may not be able to come back."
Seeing several people looking at her with confused expressions, the old lady wiped her tears and said kindly: "Run quickly! Run far away. Especially you young people, if the government sees it, they will be taken away." .
My two sons and eldest grandson, as well as many men in the village, were arrested by them, and now there is no news about them. "
Sitting next to her was a taciturn old man, two women, and three or four children of several years old, who must be her family members.
There are many houses like theirs nearby, and not a single one of the young adults was seen.
At the moment when King Liang was about to rebel, Li Yunze had already anticipated this situation.
He cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, madam. We will leave immediately after taking a rest."
"Auntie, are they only arresting strong men and not resettling the victims?" Ye Yutong asked pretending to be confused.
The aunt smiled sarcastically, "The purpose of catching strong men is to help them fight the war. What are the remaining old, weak, sick and disabled people who are of no use to them? They will only waste food. Who will care about our life and death?"
Seeing how pitiful these children were, she pointed to the mountain opposite, "If you are hungry, go up there and dig some wild vegetables to satisfy your hunger! But don't go into the deep mountains, there are wild beasts inside."
Ye Yutong said gratefully: "Thank you, aunt."
"Let's go! It will be bright soon. If the town government officials see you, you won't be able to run away." The aunt waved her hand and urged them to leave quickly.
The four of them thanked her again and quickly left Guyuan Town. Since the situation in the town was like this, there was no need to stay any longer.
When leaving, Ye Mingxuan put a backpack next to the aunt and whispered: "Auntie, this is a little bit of our gratitude, please leave it for the children to eat!"
Seeing that the aunt wanted to refuse, he pressed her hand and said, "Auntie, there are many people here, so don't give in. Hurry up and hide after we leave."
It contained about ten kilograms of sorghum noodles, as well as a pack of steamed buns and boiled eggs, which they took out when they entered the town.
