Chapter 23 Go to Lu County

Half a piece of milk candy lies in the child's slightly dirty hands.

The white color of the milk candy is in sharp contrast with the child's slightly grayish palm.

Hong Guangyi's fierce eyes suddenly softened. The seven-foot-tall man lowered his head slightly and could no longer say that he would risk his life to seek revenge on King Linhai.

He said: "Good boy, you can eat it yourself."

The few simple words were a bit sluggish, as if he was holding back his sobs.

Cheng Ling then took out six more milk candies from his bag and said, "No need to give in, everyone has it, can you eat it yourself?"

Let everyone have some sweets. She may not be able to change the world, but she can give each of the people around her a milk candy.

At least, this is what she can afford.

Cheng Ling also ate a candy herself, and the familiar milk flavor slowly melted in her mouth. In fact, it was only slightly sweet, and she couldn't quite taste it unless she ate it carefully. After all, she originally bought a zero-sucrose version of the milk candy.

It's ridiculous that I was pursuing a low-sugar life, but now that I'm in another world, I'm actually moved by this slight sweetness.

So things are impermanent, so when there are good days, just cherish them.

Cheng Ling held the candy in her mouth and smiled slightly.

She said: "Brother Shi, according to what you see, if the one who occupies Lu County is really King Linhai, which way will they go next?"

Shi Hong was stunned for a moment, Cheng Ling's question knocked him down.

He could figure out that the one who occupied Lu County was King Linhai. That was because King Linhai's fiefdom was close to here.

With such a powerful army nearby, who else but Linhai King could be there?

But to speculate on King Linhai's march route was beyond Shi Hong's knowledge.

He was stunned for a moment, and then when he thought about it carefully, he realized that this issue was very important and he had to think about it carefully.

They are a group of people who have lost their direction and are confused to find a way to survive in this troubled world. They can't really go to the imperial court and join the army as Hong Guangyi said, right?

The problem is, even if they want to invest, they don't know where to invest and whether others will accept them.

And if they really join the army, will they definitely be able to find a way to survive?

The best thing is to find a safe route and go to a safer place.

At this moment, only two words came to Shi Hong's mind: Beijing!

He swallowed and said nervously: "If King Linhai is really rebelling, and he acts like this, he will probably go straight to the capital. We..."

Shi Hong paused again. The world is so big that they have nowhere to go!

Cheng Ling whispered: "Brother Shi, do you want to know the current specific situation in Lu County?"

Shi Hong was shocked and looked at Cheng Ling but was unable to answer.

Mu Sanniang immediately looked at Cheng Ling nervously, fearing that Cheng Ling would say that she wanted to explore Lu County.

Cheng Ling finally made up his mind and said: "Let's pack up, get up immediately, and walk another twenty miles to the east, trying to find a suitable place to camp before dark. When night falls, I will go to Lu County to visit

look."

Mu Sanniang was shocked: "Brother Ling, you can't!"

Cheng Ling said slowly: "Auntie, the specific situation in Lu County is very important and we must know it. If King Linhai really wants to rebel, do you think that His Majesty, who is sitting on the throne now, can stop him?

?”

This... how could Mu Sanniang know?

However, she had a simple mind and said smoothly: "The uncle wants to take away the family business from the young nephew. How can this nephew resist?"

After she finished speaking, Mu Sanniang closed her mouth tightly again, as if she was frightened by what she just said.

Cheng Lingdao: "It's not just a question of whether your Majesty can resist it. There are three kingdoms standing in the south of Shenchuan River. The Qi Kingdom is in chaos like this. Didn't the neighboring Shu Kingdom and Chen Guoguo react?"

Cheng Erni, who was listening in the audience, suddenly said "Ah" and said in a panic: "Brother Ling, do you mean that Shu and Chen will come and attack us?"

Cheng Ling didn't answer, but turned around and asked Shi Hong: "Brother Shi, do you think this is extremely possible?"

Shi Hong opened his mouth and said dryly: "Probably, it's probably possible."

An atmosphere of confusion and depression immediately circulated among everyone. Although everyone was a low-class citizen, they all vaguely understood that the people who had subjugated their country would probably not have a good ending.

Even if the country is not subjugated, if these big shots really start to fight fiercely, they, the refugees who are fleeing from famine, will probably have nowhere to live.

Cheng Erni bit her lower lip tightly to control her tears from falling.

Mu Sanniang said in a trembling voice: "Brother Ling, Brother Ling, if you must go to Lu County to check after nightfall, then go ahead. Go with peace of mind, go back quickly, there is no need for you to worry about my mother.

"

Cheng Ling responded and turned to ask Hong Guangyi and Shi Hongdao: "Brother Hong and Brother Shi, do you two want to go with me?"

This was a formal invitation for the two of them to escape together. Before that, although the two of them were walking together, they were not actually true companions.

Cheng Ling considered that the road ahead for this journey was uncertain. Although his personal strength was outstanding, the combination of a young man and three women was still too weak on the unpredictable road to escape.

It is easy to attract evil thoughts and cause more troubles.

There is strength in numbers, and there are always times that she cannot take care of. At this time, the existence of two young and strong men becomes very important.

In addition, Shi and Hong can be regarded as kind and righteous people. In this world, it is not difficult to find people who are kind for a while, but it is rare to find people who can stick to the bottom line in life and death situations.

If you don’t have friendship with such a person, what kind of person should you have good friendship with?

Shi and Hong were flattered.

Cheng Ling took a fancy to their character, but in their eyes, Cheng Ling was even more of a heroic figure.

Although the two of them didn't say it clearly, when they first met, Cheng Ling's sizzling meteor-like killing moves actually made them fall in love with him.

Hong Guangyi said excitedly: "Cheng Langjun, please give me your instructions. I am familiar with all the routes to Lu County. I..."

Shi Hong also said almost at the same time: "It's extremely, it's extremely..."

Cheng Ling smiled slightly and said: "You two brothers have misunderstood. I can go to Lu County alone. But after I leave, my mother and two sisters will have to ask them to take care of me. Brother Shi's injury has not yet recovered.

You also need to take a lot of rest and don’t rush too much.”

There is nothing to refute about this arrangement.

The few of them made the decision, and Hong Guangyi no longer struggled with the matter of "following Cheng Langjun to help", but patted his chest and promised:

"Mr. Cheng, just don't worry. As long as I, Hong Er, are here, no matter what danger you encounter, I, Hong Er, will risk my life to protect my sister-in-law and the two young ladies!"

Cheng Ling immediately clasped his fists and said solemnly: "Thank you, Brother Hong!"
