Wings of Hung Chien

Chapter 69: 69

The mountain tonight is too quiet...

Quietly terrifying.

An inexplicable sense of unease came over me.

Si Hongcang looked up at the thick dark night sky.

It seems a little unusual!

In the past, no matter how late and dark the sky was, it would not be so dark, so dark and starless.

this night...

It looks like it has been swallowed by the monster in the Shanhaijing - gluttonous.

And the air was so humid that it seemed to be condensed, completely stagnant.

This feeling of stuffiness, suffocation, and difficulty in breathing made Si Hongcang very uncomfortable.

This made her suddenly think of a sentence in her previous life, "the tranquility before the wind and rain".

This rain, it's falling....

I am afraid it will not be small, and it may also cause a flood. At that time, it may become the entire Yanhui County and the next Jiji... No, it may be that the entire Yanzhou City will suffer!

Si Hongcang took a detour down the mountain from the north, then from north to east and then south. He walked through the corn field on the side of the mountain with a short body, slowly approaching the Nanshan River, hiding in the corn forest and looking at his house on the hillside on the other side of the river.

The room was dark and silent.

Even the Yun family and the Gao family did not move.

This is so abnormal!

With such a big movement during the day, how could it be possible to leave?

Since he didn't leave, there must be someone in ambush at home.

There are strangers at home. The two dogs were afraid that they would bark more and more, and they might bark all night until dawn. Even if Yuntian sat at the door all night at that time, they would still call. Not to mention these officers. Now that he is silent, how can it be normal?

She quietly retreated into the corn grove. Change direction and touch the village again.

She came to the east village entrance secretly, and was hesitating whether to go in, when she heard a rustling sound on the left, and someone was approaching her. Startled, she quickly clenched the knife in her hand, ready to attack at any time.

"A Cang, it's me!"

The visitor lowered his voice.

It was the voice of a bear-like auntie.

Si Hongcang breathed a sigh of relief and whispered, "Auntie!"

The voice trembles a little, which is great!

From the moment she discovered those officers and soldiers, she was not in the mood to be sad, angry or complaining. She only worried about Yun Ruo and Yun Tian. Now that she has met acquaintances, she is still someone she can rely on, so why not make her excited.

The bear-like aunt quickly approached her, grabbed her hand, and clenched it tightly, like an iron pincer, Si Hongcang had no power to resist.

"Walk!"

She couldn't help but drag her back into the cornfield.

The two returned to the mountains with a cat on their waist.

Beneath a hidden cliff, the bear-like aunt lowered her voice and briefly explained to Si Hongcang, "A Cang, your mother and father may have some background. Some people recognize your identity, those officers and soldiers are here. The one who caught you. You can't go back, just run for your life. I came out to find you."

As he spoke, he took off a small burden and handed it to her.

This is not new to Si Hongcang, she has known it for a long time, but she has been deceiving herself.

She asked in a low voice, "What about Yun Ruo? Does he have anything to do with the Yun family?"

Aunt Gao Kang paused, then said, "Yun Ruo and the Yun family are all right. Although he is your husband, but after finding out that he is still a virgin, there is nothing to embarrass him. Maybe you know that the county magistrate Lu is with us. What Yannan Village has done makes you think that you and Yun Ruo are just pretending to be married because you are in a hurry to obey the power. If you go back now, it will be a danger to him. You should take care of yourself. "

Si Hongcang didn't believe it, and felt that she was hiding something.

She asked again, "Who is my daughter? Where are those people now? It hurts?"

Aunt Gao Kang hurriedly said, "I don't know whose daughter you have. The officers and soldiers live in the village, and the Yun family and yours live the most. But don't worry, no one was hurt. You can go quickly and don't ask any more questions. ."

Si Hongcang felt sadness in his heart, and called out, "Auntie!"

In the dark night, Aunt Gao Kang's heart trembled.

She couldn't help thinking of the situation when Si Hongcang's father proposed to recognize himself as the righteous sister the next day after giving birth to her. Although he didn't say clearly what his identity and background were, when he said his child's mother's surname Si Hong, she felt something very unusual in her heart!

Because the surname Si Hong alone is far more special and noble than the surnames of ordinary people. Furthermore, in the embarrassing environment of poverty and despair, he still stands firm and shows his proud and noble atmosphere from time to time. One has to doubt his true identity.

Si Hongcang, who was just born, quietly nestled in his father's arms, still so small and soft...

Now, she is almost bigger than herself, and she is such a courageous and responsible woman!

She took a deep breath, patted Si Hongcang's shoulder, and said softly, "Good. Listen to Auntie's words and go. Go as far as you want! Go as far as you want, and never come back!"

Si Hongcang was instantly heartbroken.

She had no idea how cruel the situation was!

Don't look at her like this, everything is clear, but after encountering such a sudden incident, in fact, my heart is still ignorant. From the day she crossed over. Until Bai Yi, who was both civil and military, with a secret identity, appeared in Yannan Village, and lived with her for several years, plus the blood-red Fengxiang jade, she knew that the identity of this body was unusual.

Although she didn't cry, Auntie Bear felt her sorrow and sadness.

Suddenly, one day, she was truly alone.

Si Hongcang couldn't care less about grief, because she thought of the impending heavy rain, which should not be underestimated! No matter if it's accurate or not, it's best if the rain doesn't come, but it's still important to let Auntie spread the message!

"Auntie, there should be heavy rain in the next three days, which may cause great disasters. I hope you can help spread the news so that everyone can be prepared. The precautions should be taken, and the rice and grain should be raised as high as possible. In order to avoid moisture, the crops that can be harvested should be harvested as much as possible, so as not to be soaked in water or damaged by rain.

Especially in low-lying areas, if you see continuous heavy rain, you should tell them to move to a higher place as much as possible. Of course, it is best if the heavy rain does not come, but more precautions should be taken. "

Gao Kang (the bear-like aunt) looked at Si Hongcang in surprise. If she talked about astronomical phenomena, she was talking about the experience of the older generation. In fact, she already knew to some extent that it would rain on this day, and it was not small, and it might cause a disaster!

I didn't think of A Cang at such a young age...

Even know this? ! Why did she get it?

In the end, Gao Kang didn't ask anything, just nodded to Si Hongcang and said, "I'll do as you say."

"Well, Auntie, please take care." Si Hongcang put Gao Kang around the bear and hugged him for a while.

"You also take care, well, you'd better go quickly." Gao Kang also patted her on the back a few times.

At the urging of Aunt Gao Kang, she finally left.

Together with a few hidden guards, hide in the depths of the mountain.

After Si Hongcang left, Gao Kang silently leaned against the cliff, listening to the silence in the mountains, and there seemed to be various sounds. a while. Only slowly returned to the village.

...

Yesterday, Ji Ruyan ordered his subordinates to announce the identity of Si Hongcang to the villagers and offered a reward for their arrest, but no one responded! And what made her even more incredible was that———— these rural people, aren't they all greedy and timid?

For some reason, this mountain village gave her a very unusual feeling.

On the surface, it looks peaceful and beautiful here, just like a paradise. At this hour, the mist in the valley has not yet dissipated, and strands of mist drifted to and fro among the houses and trees. The courtyard walls and door openings of Si Hong's and Yun's homes are completely covered with green vines of various colors, full of leisurely wildness, but full of poetry.

Yesterday, when the officers and soldiers entered the village, the villagers were full of fear and cowardice. Today, there is no one in front of the Si Hong and Yun families. Everyone was busy as usual, but they took detours to and from each other, and did not pass in front of Si Hong's house and Yun's house at all.

After being silent for a while, she said to Lu Yuanxiang in a deep voice, "You are the village chief, and it is your duty to cooperate with the government to arrest criminals. Si Hongcang hid in the mountains and disappeared, so this officer ordered you to select the best hunters in the village to accompany the officers and soldiers. Mountain searched for Si Hongcang."

Lu Yuanxiang suddenly raised his eyes and looked directly at her, his face full of shock.

Ji Ruyan said, "Why, you dare to disobey?"

Lu Yuanxiang knelt down and kowtowed, "I beg your lord to spare Xiaomin!"

Ji Ruyan asked, "Why is this?"

Lu Yuanxiang raised his head and said, "Sir, Si Hongcang can say that the benefactor of the whole village has always thought about the villagers, and everyone in the village is only grateful to her. The villain doesn't know her origin or what crime she committed, officers and soldiers. If you want to arrest her, the villain will not dare to stop her, nor will she protect her. However, if you want the villain to arrest her in person, you must not! The villain can't bear the blame of the whole villagers, and his conscience is uneasy."

Ji Ruyan listened to what she said. His eyes narrowed.

At this time, Yun Ruo asked, "Sir, what crime did my wife and master commit?"

Because Ji Ruyan lives in Yun's house, she thinks that Yunruo is just a boy's family and will not pose any threat to her. In addition, it is verified that he is still a virgin, which "confirmed" that he and Si Hongcang were only "fake marriage". That's it. Also because the Yun family kept begging for mercy, they never locked him in another place, allowing him to move around in the Yun family. However, he couldn't leave the Yun Family Gate for half a step. Therefore, Yun Ruo was still imprisoned.

Ji Ruyan looked at him with disgust, and said sternly, "This is a secret matter! Even this official doesn't know it, how can I tell you these ants!"

Yun Ruo also replied sternly, "That's right! Since this matter is confidential and the documents issued by the government did not list his crimes, the imperial court did not hesitate to mobilize the forbidden army to enter the mountain. It means being cautious and not public. This is the responsibility of adults. Responsibility, how can the adults let the people of Yannan Village go into the mountains to arrest them? How can the adults tell the village chief Lu to tell the people of Yannan Village that my wife and master Si Hongcang is only fifteen years old. To silence them all? What reason will you use to block the mouths of the lingering crowd?"

Ji Ruyan's eyes widened, looking at the fearless young man in front of him.

Her eyes were full of shock, anger and disbelief!

A little boy who was born in the mountains and forests, and who is extremely ugly, even uttered critical words and attacked her with words? !

For this reason, Yun Tian was deeply afraid that Ji Ruyan would become angry and hurt her younger brother, so she immediately put Yun Ruo behind her and stared at Ji Ruyan with a wary face. If she dared to touch a hair on her brother, she would definitely kill her!

Lu Yuanxiang lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, not daring to look at Ji Ruyan's angry and embarrassed face.

Ji Ruyan's eyes were cold, and he hummed, "I didn't think so, the Yun family's worthy brother is also such a quick-witted man, and he deserves to be the younger brother of the Yun family's virtuous sister. Yuntian, you guys are going to fight to the end. already?"

Yun Tian said, "Confrontation? I'm waiting for the ants and the common people, what can I do against the officers and soldiers?"

Saying that, the officers and soldiers in and out of the courtyard waved their hands. He pointed to the next door and asked loudly, "There are so many banned troops, all of whom live in the homes of the common people, and they are so disturbed that they are so disturbed. They are not out to work on business, but to play in the mountains and rivers? My Fengguo military discipline has always been strict. It is not allowed. Disturbing the people, I don't know how Master Ji will explain this?

At this time, Yun Ruo also stood up, and then added to her, "The fields in this mountain are limited, and the food produced is also limited. Hundreds of officers and soldiers have been harassing them for many days. When they leave, what will the people do to live? Even Master Ji does not care. I'll wait, but also worry about Governor Ji's reputation in Yanzhou Mansion!"

Lu Yuanxiang was stunned by what Yun Ruo said! Surprised, he secretly said, he is only a little boy, how dare Ji Ruyan say such a thing as a commander? !

She secretly glanced at Ji Ruyan, who was about to explode with anger. She couldn't help trembling all over, she just hoped that the Yun family brothers and sisters would not irritate her again.

Ji Ruyan was enraged by her sister and brother, and the blood rushed to the top of her head.

but. She didn't lose her head.

This matter can be big or small, in addition to Yuntian sister and brother, Lu Jiaqin also has Lu Jiaqin as an official in the court. She really has to worry about the reputation of the Ji family in Yanzhou.

So she chuckled and said, "The virtuous brother of the Yun family is so sympathetic that he pleads for the people's life? How do you know that I am disturbing the people. And I won't make up for it afterwards?"

Yun Ruo asked sarcastically, "Master Ji will really compensate?"

Ji Ruyan said coldly, "Why do you need to say this! The Ji family is a big clan. How could you give someone a handle on such trivial matters! If anyone finds out, the imperial censor will definitely impeach. This officer never does such stupid things. ."

Immediately called an officer and told her to calculate the silver tael and give it to the farmer, together with the advance payment for half a month.

Yun Ruo, Yun Tian, ​​and Lu Yuanxiang all turned ugly when they heard "Half a month".

The officer and soldier clasped their fists together, turned around and entered the west wing of Yun's house.

In a blink of an eye, he brought out another cloth bag, followed by several officers and soldiers.

Ji Ruyan stopped them again, and first said to Lu Yuanxiang, "It's not easy to get in and out of this mountain, and the officers and soldiers can't carry food and grass, so this officer only brought taels of silver, so he has to get food on the spot. In order to show justice, please ask the village chief and the Yun family. Sister Xian goes over together to be a witness."

After hearing this, Lu Yuanxiang hurriedly knelt down and thanked her for being considerate and considerate for the people of Yannan Village.

She couldn't help but admire Yuntian and her brother, secretly thinking that the mouth that had read the book was poisonous.

Yun Ruo and Yun Tian did not have a trace of joy.

Yun Tian followed them out of the yard expressionlessly.
