Chapter 142 Meeting at the Ruined Temple(1/2)

Qin Heng and Qin Sheng planned to go outside to collect some firewood before it got dark, but Qin Zhao did not go and stayed in the wild house to look after the women and children.

There is no completely dry firewood at this time. Most of the firewood now is partially buried in the snow, with only a section exposed outside.

But none of them were let go. They were all brought back by the Qin brothers, and they broke them into two pieces. They used the dry parts for themselves, and put the wet ones aside to dry for future generations.

The police officers followed them out and were responsible for supervising them.

Qin Heng took advantage of the convenient opportunity and grabbed Qin Sheng, "A Sheng, I just wanted to ask you, when did you have such good luck and be able to pick up things when you go out?"

Someone noticed the goose when it was plucking its feathers. It had some injuries on its body, so it didn't attract much attention.

Xiaoliu's luck has always been good. When he was young, he would always pick up something every time he went out. Everything that flew in the sky or swam in the water would jump in front of him. Can you imagine that in the middle of winter, he could still pick up something?

The big snake scene?

Xiao Liu's good luck shocked him and his father at the time. Later, he and his father took action to cover it up for him.

It seems that such good luck started to pick up less things after he became sensible at the age of five or six. After getting engaged at the age of ten, he gradually disappeared from everyone? Well, it's not that exaggerated anyway, but Asheng's luck is better than ordinary people.

People should be better.

But it’s been a long time since I saw him picking up things when he went out.

In the wild house, Qin's mother found a broken wooden barrel after finding the cracked clay pot.

Taking advantage of the shabby house that could heat hot water and provide shelter, Lu Songli went to say hello to Xu Zheng first, and then she and Qin's mother Nie Yunniang took a piece of coarse cloth, went to the shabby house next door, and formed a circle in the corner.

A little space comes out.

The three of them helped each other and cleaned up a bit.

The children were also taken to be cleaned one by one.

Xu Zheng didn't say anything.

Zhao Long, on the other hand, took a look and spat, "I'm poor."

"Xu Yasi, is it time to put handcuffs on them?" Zhao Long asked after eating and drinking.

Xu Zheng glanced at him and said, "Okay, go ahead and cuff them."

This kid, he ate the wild goose soup just now the most. As soon as he ate the wild goose that was given to them, he wanted to torment others. He has nothing to say to people who pick up the bowl to eat and put down the bowl to curse.

Regarding the need to put the handcuffs on again, the three Qin brothers didn't say much.

At night, they made two fires.

Their shoes were more or less wet. They took them off and put them aside to bake.

The officers took down the bedding from the carriage, and Xu Zheng arranged for someone to keep watch, then lay down, and some even got into the carriage to sleep.

Qin Zhao and Nie Yunniang protected the baby and slept in the middle of the corner. The two children Qin Yu and Qin Zhen slept next to them.

Qin Sheng and Qin Heng slept on the outermost side respectively, and Lu Songli slept on one side next to Qin Sheng.

Qin's mother and Qin Heng protected Qin Jia and Qin Han sleeping on the other side.

Early the next morning, the weather was pretty good and there was no snow. Xu Zheng gave him two-quarters of an hour to eat and solve the three urgent needs of his life, and then he was on his way.

Last night, after secret discussion, the three brothers of the Qin family also decided to arrange for someone to keep a vigil. Qin Zhao and Qin Sheng, one would keep vigil for half the night and the other would keep vigil for the rest of the night. The vigilantes did not sleep so deeply and needed to add more firewood to the fire from time to time.

, we have to take care of the simple earthen stove, because there is some water sitting on it with the broken clay pot, and one or two larger pieces of firewood are stuffed in the belly of the stove to ensure that there is always a fire to warm the water.

At this moment, they put the dry food pancakes that were choking their throats into the clay pots and cooked them until they were soft and mashed, and then ate them among themselves. Otherwise, the children would not be able to chew the dry food, and Lu Songli's cheeks hurt from chewing them.

When setting off, Lu Songli felt much better, so she refused to let Qin Sheng carry her on his back.

Seeing her little aunt walking by herself, Qin Han and Qin Jia both wanted to get down and walk by themselves, thinking that they would sit on the basket until they could no longer walk.

The younger Qin Yu and Qin Zhen saw that their brothers and sisters were walking by themselves, so they imitated their example and decided to leave on their own.

The children are also sensible. When encountering changes, they are very well-behaved and do not cry much.

The three brothers of the Qin family also let them go, knowing that the children would not be able to walk for long and would just sit down when they got tired.

On this day, they actually walked more than 40 miles. When they reached the back, Lu Songli felt that her legs were mechanical and numb. Later, Qin Sheng offered to carry her on his back, and she refused.

In the second half, the children were almost always being carried around.

On the way, Xu Zheng revealed that they would spend the night in a ruined temple tonight.

At this moment, a wave of people had already moved into the ruined temple they were talking about.

Mo Bing stood on a high place and looked towards Chang'an City, "Brother Liu, do you think our lady and uncle can get to this ruined temple today?"

Liu Erxi replied, "No problem. According to their schedule, they can get here before tonight."

This dilapidated temple was not far from the official road and had always been the place where the guards would stay when escorting prisoners to the northeast. It was a ten-mile radius with no villages or shops, so it was impossible for them not to come here.

At this time, Lu Mingzhi also walked out of the ruined temple.

Mo Bing saluted, "Second Young Master——"

Lu Mingzhi nodded and asked them, "How are you doing? Did you see anyone?"

"Brother Liu said that it is estimated that the young lady and uncle will not arrive until after evening."

"Okay, I'll come out later."

Lu Mingzhi was kicked out of the house by his father. As soon as the news that the Qin family was determined to be exiled to Pingzhou came out, his father decided to let him follow the people from the Yang Wei Escort Bureau and secretly escort his sister to Pingzhou. He said he had been there for a few months

Before, in order to gain experience, he had to go on a study tour with his wife. Now, he could not waste such a good opportunity. What else could Lu Mingzhi say about this? He could only do it obediently.

At this time, they were all disguised, such as thickening their eyebrows, darkening their faces, and changing their hair styles.

Mo Bing wore a woman's hair, and together with Liu Erxi played the role of a newlywed couple rushing to sell goods in Lelang County.

At this time, a young man from Yang Wei Escort came out, "Miss Mo Bing, our boss asked me to ask you, what should we have for dinner?"

"Let's boil the big bone porridge! Boil two pots!"

"Okay!"

"Put more ginger slices and wine." It can drive away the cold.

The young man responded while thinking about how to steam some steamed buns and some bacon, and they would be ready. The food on their trip was really good.

After the young man entered, he spoke to Mr. Yang Wei and Mr. Yang. Yang Wei glanced at him, waved his hand, and asked him to go down and get ready. This guy is dishonest. The big bone porridge must have been requested by Miss Mo Bing, and the steamed buns should also be served.

Yes, on such a cold day, a grown man would urinate just after drinking porridge. But this bacon must have been eaten by this boy because he was greedy and insisted on steaming it.

But it didn't matter. When they went to Pingzhou this time, he brought out sixteen brothers. He brought out almost all the most skilled ones in their escort agency, leaving only a few housekeepers.

They prepared ten carriages alone! They were full of supplies, including rice, flour, grain and oil, and things to keep out the cold. Well, eight of them were prepared by the Lu family, and the remaining two belonged to their escort agency.

It's also pitiful. But the Lu family doesn't care about food, and never skimps on it. They can eat whatever they want, as long as they don't waste it. After two or three days, they will ask his guys to take care of the Qin and Lu families.

Full of good feelings.

But at this time, Yang Wei thought that he would soon meet the famous second young lady of the Lu family. To be honest, he was a little nervous.

It was getting dark, and Lu Songli and the others finally reached the ruined temple that Xu Zheng mentioned.

"Huh? Is there anyone in the ruined temple?" Xu Zheng stopped.

The officer next to him stood on tiptoe and looked around, "There are people there. Look at the carriage tied to the corridor. I guess there are quite a lot of people there."

Hearing this, Lu Songli's eyes flashed.

"Brother Xu, can't we get through now?"

"Go!" If they don't go, they will sleep in the wilderness. And the ruined temple is ownerless, so why not go?

At this time, someone came out of the ruined temple.

As soon as Yang Wei came out, he smiled heartily and said, "Brother, you are Xu Zhengxu of Baoding Prefecture, right?" People who travel all over the country have good memories. What's more, the distance between Chang'an and Baoding is not far, he really

I had dealings with Xu Zheng once or twice.

Xu Zheng also felt that the visitor looked familiar, "Are you Mr. Yang, the head of Yang Wei Escort Agency?"

"Yes, it's me, brother Xu, come on, come in quickly!" Yang Wei warmly invited.

"Mr. Yang, escort chief, what are you doing?"

"Hey, this time I'm taking a escort to Lelang County, and I'll temporarily stay at the ruined temple tonight. Brother Xu, if you don't mind, can we all squeeze in tonight?"

Xu Zheng glanced at Lu Songli and escorted the escort to Lelang County, passing through Pingzhou. What a coincidence?

"Of course I don't mind." Again, a ruined temple is ownerless.

"This ruined temple is quite big. I have a lot of people and stuff with me, so I will use the main hall. The side halls on both sides are still empty. If Brother Xu doesn't mind, you can choose whatever you want."

"Okay, we'll take a look at the selection later. Mr. Yang, head escort, has worked hard. He has to go out to escort the escorts at this time."

Yang Wei still smiled heartily, "There is nothing we can do. The employer asked us to leave at this time, so we have no choice but to comply. It's all for the sake of food. Xu Yasi, aren't you also traveling for the Chinese New Year?"

Xu Zheng also looked helpless, "There is no way, I have orders from above, I have to follow it."

Then, Xu Zheng and the others just decided to spend the night in the side hall on the right.

I saw Yang Wei coming in from the side door, "Brother Xu, our dinner is ready. If you don't mind, can you have some with us?"

"Isn't this bad?" Xu Zheng slightly declined.
