"Xiao Fei, it's already very late. Aren't you still sleeping?" Seeing Zhao Fei still reading very hard, Mr. Xu said with some distress.
"Sleep now!" Feeling that it was indeed getting late, Zhao Fei said nothing more. He blew out the oil lamp, lay down on the bed, and soon fell asleep.
In the early morning, before dawn, Zhao Fei got up early. He glanced at Mr. Xu who was still sleeping soundly. Zhao Fei got up quietly. He put his hand into his baggage and took out a gold leaf from the baggage.
He took out the two eggs in his arms and placed them gently on the table. Then he quickly packed away his things and tiptoed outside.
After leaving the room, Zhao Fei closed the door softly and walked out of the yard. He turned back and looked at Mr. Xu's house thoughtfully, and Zhao Fei quickly left towards the entrance of the village.
Although it was still dark, someone in Xucun had already woken up. Zhao Fei found a middle-aged man, asked for directions, and left quickly.
The man was a little puzzled by Zhao Fei's departure. But since the beggar was the village chief, he sent Zhao Fei away without asking too much.
Not long after Zhao Fei left, Mr. Xu woke up. He looked up at Zhao Fei's bed and found an empty bed. Zhao Fei and Zhao Fei's luggage on the bed had long since disappeared. Mr. Xu hurriedly
I sat up and got dressed.
He got up and was about to go out. Mr. Xu suddenly saw the gold leaves and eggs on the table. Mr. Xu was stunned. He walked to the table tremblingly, picked up the gold leaves, and looked at them carefully.
After a moment, the more he looked at Mr. Xu's expression, the more shocked he became.
After watching for a while, Mr. Xu finally said in shock: "This... this... this is gold." Then he picked up the egg again. Mr. Xu could still feel that the egg was still a little warm. Thinking of Zhao Fei putting a few eggs in it
In his arms, Mr. Xu hurriedly took the eggs and gold leaves and rushed out of the door.
At this time, the sky had slowly begun to light up, and more and more people were moving in the village. Suddenly, the entire Xu Village saw a very strange scene. The village chief was running towards the entrance of the village.
This scene can't help but frighten the men, women, old and children in the village. Mr. Xu is highly respected in the entire Xucun, and he is very humble, friendly, and very caring. Therefore, the entire Xucun respects Mr. Xu very much. But today they
Seeing such a highly respected Mr. Xu, he was so excited and ran towards the entrance of the village. Maybe something big happened. So some villagers for unknown reasons also slowly rushed towards the entrance of the village.
For a time, more and more people gathered in the village. The villagers who didn't know the truth kept asking each other and asking what happened. But no one knew. But some smart villagers immediately thought that the village chief had taken him in last night.
A beggar, could it be that the beggar was not quiet and stole the village chief's property. Thinking of Mr. Xu's anxious look, the more people thought about it, the more people felt that it was possible. For a time, the entire Xu Village, men, women, old and young, were all excited.
Some of the hot-tempered ones had already taken weapons and planned to capture the stinky beggar who repaid kindness with revenge.
Mr. Xu didn't know at this time that the impact of his actions was so great. He was thinking about Zhao Fei now, so he still had time to think about this. He quickly came to the entrance of the village. Zhao Fei had already left for a long time, so he could still see
See the figure of Zhao Fei.
"Alas~~" He looked around but couldn't see Zhao Fei. Mr. Xu sighed deeply. "This kid is really good." He shook his head and was about to turn around to meet the village. However, he heard a voice coming from behind him.
There was a chaotic sound, as if many people were rushing towards me.
Mr. Xu hurriedly came to his senses and found that the whole village, old and young, had arrived at the entrance of the village. Some young and middle-aged men stood up with weapons in their hands.
"What are you doing?" Seeing this situation, Mr. Xu was stunned for a moment. Then he immediately regained his majesty as the head of the village and glared at the whole village.
"Uh~~" I didn't expect the village chief to behave like this, and the excited crowd couldn't help but lose their momentum. I thought they were here to vent their anger on the village chief, but I didn't expect the village chief to be so cool.
But someone still had the courage to say: "The village chief was very kind to Xu Village, but he was too kind-hearted. That beggar repaid his kindness with evil. Village chief, you kindly took him in, but he didn't know what to do and stole the village chief's money."
.How can we spare him such a heartless thing? Everyone, please tell me, is that right?"
"right!"
"That is, we must not spare him."
"Catch him and torture him severely."
Seeing someone taking the lead, the villagers immediately became excited again. Some even shouted and killed.
"Nonsense!" Mr. Xu yelled at the villagers. In an instant, the boiling villagers immediately calmed down. The originally noisy village entrance also became audible with Mr. Xu's roar.
Roar, this shows how high Mr. Xu’s prestige is in Xucun.
"Who did you hear to say that there are thieves in my house?" Mr. Xu looked at the villagers without getting angry.
The villagers were glared at by Mr. Xu and took a step back.
Then Mr. Xu pointed at the leader just now and asked, "Awang, tell me, who did you hear this from?"
"This... this..." Awang was nominated by the village chief and suddenly panicked. He didn't know what to say. He completely lost the high-spiritedness he had when he just took the lead. "I also heard what others said.
"Under Mr. Xu's fierce gaze, Awang said reluctantly.
"Huh! I heard it from hearsay!" Mr. Xu snorted coldly, which made Awang tremble.
"We are also watching the village chief. You are running towards the village entrance in such a hurry. Are you afraid that something has happened?" At this time, a villager said.
"That's right."
"We are also afraid that something might happen to you, village chief."
A group of villagers also hurriedly agreed.
"Okay, it's okay. Let's all go back." Mr. Xu naturally knew what the villagers were thinking, but he was somewhat complaining. At the same time, he was a little lucky that Zhao Fei had just left in time, otherwise this group of angry villagers might have done something like this.
What's going on?
The village chief had said nothing, and the villagers had no intention of staying any longer. Why did they stay? Let the village chief say it. Then a group of people returned to the village in twos and threes.
Seeing the villagers disperse one after another, Mr. Xu looked south in the distance and remained silent for a long time. He tightly held the gold leaves and eggs in his hand. It was full of melancholy.
At this time, Zhao Fei had no idea that his smiling behavior had actually caused such turmoil in the entire Xucun. At this time, Zhao Fei was humming a little tune and continuing his trip to Yingchuan.
After leaving Xucun, Zhao Fei headed south. After a while, he arrived at a small town. After entering the small town, Zhao Fei purchased some dry food and started his journey here without stopping too much.
But this journey lasted for five days. Within five days, Zhao Fei lost his previous good luck and was always in the wilderness. Looking around, he saw patches of desolation. Moreover, Zhao Fei was also gorgeous.
Li De told herself that she was lost.
Looking at the blurry map, Zhao Fei felt like his head was spinning. The map that Zhou Meng spent a lot of money to buy was of no use at all at this time. The city that should have appeared on the map did not appear. Look.
He looked at everything around him. Everything was so strange and so confusing.
"What can we do?" Zhao Fei was about to cry at this time. Seeing that all the dry food he had brought was about to be wiped out, Zhao Fei was really at the end of his rope at this time.
"My great revenge has not yet been avenged, so why should I die young like this?" Zhao Fei murmured to himself, suddenly thinking of his parents and teachers lying in a pool of blood, gritting his teeth, Zhao Fei made a cruel move and confirmed
Once in the right direction, he walked forward again.
Zhao Fei had been away for another two days. Just when Zhao Fei had decided to give up, the shadow of a city appeared on the distant horizon.
Hard work pays off, and Zhao Fei's efforts over the past few days and nights have not been in vain. Zhao Fei sees hope of survival here again.
Looking at the city in the distance, Zhao Fei quickened his pace. According to his own estimation, he should be able to reach the city before dark.
The closer to the city, the happier Zhao Fei feels. The happier Zhao Fei is, the faster he walks. In the distance, Zhao Fei can already see the magnificent city gate.
Just by looking through the city gate, Zhao Fei knew that this city was not much different from Zhending, the capital of Changshan County. It was obviously the capital of the same county.
"This should be the capital of Zhao State!" Zhao Fei said to himself as he looked at the city not far away.
But when Zhao Fei finally reached the city gate and looked up, he was stunned.
