Chapter 80 The heartbroken old father(1/2)

On the official road leading to the county seat, all you can see are people fleeing Hedong with their families.

Wei Cheng didn't expect that the situation would develop to such a serious level. If there was still a glimmer of hope, who would be willing to drag his family far away from his homeland? Winter is about to begin, and he doesn't know how many people will die along the way.

What about people.

"This is unreasonable, stop!"

Wei Cheng looked back and saw Zhang Fei dismounting his horse and kicking a slovenly man.

In front of the man was a poor mother and daughter. A half-opened steamed bun was scattered on the ground. The little girl was covering her hair. When she put her hand down, a tuft of hair fell down along with her bloody scalp. The blood flowed down the road.

His forehead slid down, which was shocking.

Aning, who was sitting in the carriage, was so frightened by the scene in front of her that she didn't dare to say anything. She just kindly gave her steamed buns to the little girl about her age, but she didn't want to bring disaster to her.

The man who snatched the girl's steamed buns was kicked away by Zhang Fei. After he landed on the ground, he vomited blood and stared at the little girl fiercely.

The refugees around who were about to move looked at each other in confusion, looking at the mud-covered bun on the ground, swallowing their saliva from time to time.

On the carriage, Cai Yan held little Aning in his arms to comfort him, while Xie Yu opened the curtain and looked at Wei Cheng.

Wei Cheng frowned slightly and said to Xu Ding behind him: "Bring the mother and daughter with you."

There was no other way. If he left like this, the man would definitely vent all his anger on the mother and daughter.

What seems like a kind act by Xiao Aning and Zhang Fei may eventually lead to tragedy and harm the mother and daughter.

Xu Ding nodded slightly, got off the horse himself, said a few words to Zhang Fei, and asked the mother and daughter if they wanted to go with them.

Looking at the girl's torn scalp, he took out the hemostatic ointment Wei Cheng specially prepared for them from his arms and said, "Apply it on the wound to stop the bleeding quickly. You'd better come with us to avoid losing your life.

"

The mother tremblingly looked at the man who had been kicked away, and then at the daughter in her arms. She nodded vigorously, knelt on the ground and thanked her repeatedly. At the same time, she picked up the buns covered with soil and handed them to the man with blood on his head.

There is no crying daughter.

With tears in her eyes, the little girl tried not to cry. She broke the steamed bun in half and handed the big one to her mother. She took the small one and wolfed it down. At the same time, she looked at the frightened Aning in the carriage with a grateful look on her face.

Her calm performance not only did not make people feel admired, but made people feel very distressed and pitiful.

Along the way, I don’t know how many human relationships and dangers I saw in the world, which forced a little girl of eight or nine years old...

Wei Cheng said: "Let them sit in the carriage at the back and leave quickly. It will be dark soon."

Xu Ding nodded and helped the mother and daughter sit on the cargo of the carriage. The little girl raised her head and glanced at Wei Cheng. The steamed bun in her mouth was mixed with the blood on her face, but she didn't care at all. She ate it voraciously, even if Xu Ding

Even when I hugged her, she didn't stop chewing.

The team continued to move forward, and the rhythm was not disrupted by this small episode.

The refugees on both sides of the road obviously coveted the goods on the carriage, but when faced with the cavalry in military uniforms with sharp blades in their hands, they only took a second look and did not dare to think about robbing them.

Before nightfall, Wei Cheng and his party arrived at Wei Village.

Seeing Wei Cheng riding a horse at the head, the guard guarding the door was startled at first, and then hurriedly ordered people to move the wooden fence placed at the intersection.

"Congratulations to the Second Master!"

Wei Cheng pretended to be calm and nodded slightly.

The door slowly opened, and a group of people entered Wei Village in a mighty manner. The rules about not riding horses were in vain in Wei Cheng's place.

Upon learning that Wei Cheng was back, Wei Hao and other family elders swarmed over.

This was the first time Wei Cheng saw Wei Hao.

If Cai Yan hadn't been greeting them one by one, he wouldn't have known who his cheap daddy was.

"Cheng'er!" Wei Hao excitedly stepped forward and looked at his precious son.

Different from two months ago, Wei Cheng's complexion and body at this time are not comparable to those of his sickly predecessor.

The changes were so great that even the Wei family didn't dare to recognize him.

Wei Cheng bowed his hands to everyone, and then said: "Let my people rest first."

Wei Hao nodded, "Yes, yes, as a father, I will order people to vacate Nanyuan."

A clan elder came forward and asked: "Cheng'er, why did you suddenly go down the mountain, but... what are your plans?"

Wei Cheng looked at the man. Cai Yan had just called him Fifth Uncle. Wei Cheng also called him Fifth Uncle. He cupped his hands and said, "Yes, I received a letter from my second uncle saying that the Bai Bo thieves may be detrimental to my Wei family. What's wrong with my nephew?" I can sit still and wait for death."

The fifth uncle was overjoyed when he heard this and was about to speak when Wei Hao's face darkened and he stepped forward and pushed him away.

"Okay, okay, my son is back just in time, so my father doesn't have to send someone to pick you up again." Wei Hao said lovingly.

Wei Cheng frowned slightly: "Pick me up?"

Wei Hao's smile was a little forced, he grabbed Wei Cheng's arm and said earnestly: "Yes, my father has contacted Sun Jian, the governor of Changsha. Tomorrow you will go south with Yan'er and your younger brothers and sisters. In the future, the inheritance of the Wei family will be lost." It’s on you, hehehe.”

Wei Cheng's expression changed and he said in a deep voice: "You want me to escape from Hedong?"

Wei Hao was stunned. Why didn't this kid even call him "Father"? Was he angry with his father?

"Cheng'er, as a father, this, this... is also for you... for the inheritance plan of our Wei family, you..."

Wei Cheng frowned and looked at the other clan elders on the side. Some had unhappiness on their faces, while others looked at Wei Cheng expectantly and said, "Yes, Cheng'er, just take Xun'er with you." , Li'er and his younger brothers and sisters, please go south, my Wei family's incense cannot be cut off."

Wei Cheng looked at Wei Hao and asked, "Is this what your second uncle meant?"

Wei Hao frowned and was speechless for a moment.

Upon seeing this, Wei Cheng knew that Wei Min must not know about this matter, otherwise he would not have sent him the information about the Baibo Army.

After thinking about it, Wei Cheng said: "If you want to leave, you can go. I want to stay in Hedong. I am the one who caused the Baibo Army's trouble. I will find a way to deal with them responsibly and will not harm you."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Uh, Cheng'er, that's not what it means to be a father. There is nothing about being involved or not." Wei Hao hurriedly wanted to explain.

Wei Cheng waved his hand and said: "Okay, I'm tired. If you have any questions, we'll discuss it tomorrow... Nanyuan, right, Xu Ding."

"Here." Xu Ding stepped forward.

Wei Cheng said: "First take my wife and the others to Nanyuan to settle down, and the others will take over the defense of the outer wall, Xu Chu, Xu Huang, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei!"

"Here!" Four big men came out with a strong sense of oppression, which attracted everyone in the Wei family to look at them sideways.

Wei Cheng looked at the four of them and said in a sonorous tone: "The four of you will lead twenty men each and guard the four directions of southeast, northwest and northwest. If any of the guards in Wei Village do not cooperate, you can deal with them on your own."

"yes."

Wei Teng nodded slightly, looked at Le Jin and Huang Xu, and ordered: "Le Jin, Huang Xu, you two will lead five people, go to the county government and Xia County overnight, and hand over the letter I gave you to me in person. The second uncle Wei Min and the third brother Wei Gong must not make mistakes."

"yes."

Wei Cheng said "hmm", looked at Chengtou and said, "After you finish eating, bring Mr. Jin to see me."

He bowed his head and bowed respectfully, then turned around and went to the back of the team to inform Mr. Jin who was going down the mountain with him.

After arranging everyone, Wei Cheng looked back at his cheap dad, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I need some supplies."

Wei Hao stared at his precious son in a daze. The high-spirited scene just now could not go away for a long time. Is this really my son?

Seeing that Wei Cheng finally talked to him, Wei Hao said with great relief: "My son, just ask me, what supplies do you need? Food, weapons, or..."

"I want a lot of sulfur and charcoal. I want to make sure it's extremely dry and can't get a little bit of moisture. Well, the sooner the better. It's urgent."

"Ah, okay, okay, as a father, I will make arrangements now...Cheng'er, as a father..."

"I'm tired. I'm going to rest first."

Wei Hao: "..." He looked aggrieved.

It was night, after a hasty meal.

After receiving the arrangements, everyone immediately took action. Xu Chu, Xu Huang, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei each led 20 members of the guard to take over the entire defense of Wei Village.

With Wei Hao, the head of the family, fully cooperating behind the scenes, there was no obstacle for the four of them, and the takeover process went very smoothly.

Le Jin and Huang Xu got Wei Cheng's letter and led a team of ten people to rush to the county government and Xia County overnight.

At this time, Wei Cheng was sitting opposite Chengtou and Jin Lao in a small, quiet courtyard.

Wei Cheng held a small bamboo tube in his hand and was playing with it with great interest.

Zhengtou and Jin Lao looked at each other, "Sir, what is this?"

Wei Cheng signaled them to be calm, then picked up the oil lamp on the side and put the bamboo tube close to the wick.

Hiss...

Wei Cheng threw the bamboo pipe towards the corner of the yard and covered his ears at the same time.

Zhengtou and Jin Lao looked puzzled and were about to ask.

burst!

···

"what sound?"

"What is that sound?"

"Didn't you hear that?"
