MTL - Martial Arts Master Travelled to Ancient Time and Farms-Chapter 308 Meet the deserter again

  Chapter 308 Meets a Runaway Again

  At the entrance of the cave, the rain seems to be thinning.

   What Cheng Ling just asked was, if the King of Heaven is captured and the Wei Kingdom wins the Southern Conquest, will Emperor Wei be willing to let go of such "insignificant" Wang family children like Wang Qilang!

  These words... It seems nothing at first, but if you think about it several times, it suddenly makes people feel uneasy.

The air in the cave seemed to be stagnant for a moment, and after a while, Xiao Man added a piece of firewood to the fire, and said in a low voice: "Brother Cheng, I can speak to my father and be kind to those who are willing to surrender from the state of Qi, so as to show my strength." Towards a big country."

  As soon as these words came out, Cheng Ling turned his head instantly, and his eyes fell on Xiao Man in the cave behind him.

  At this time, Xiao Man had just put on his jacket, and the neckline was still half open, revealing half of his chest with distinct texture.

  Cheng Ling froze for a moment, then turned around quickly.

   It's just a glimpse, what kind of male Bodhisattva has Cheng Ling never seen in his previous life? Just looking at it like this is nothing at all—

  Ahem, forget it, one must have a conscience, and Cheng Ling still has to admit that some people are indeed extraordinary.

  Not to mention anything else, let’s just say that Xiao Man has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and his internal and external skills are all the best in the world.

   Cheng Ling's cheeks flushed a little.

   Fortunately, she was sitting at the entrance of the cave with her back facing Xiao Man, and Xiao Man couldn't see how intoxicating her face was at the moment.

  Since Xiao Man couldn't see Cheng Ling's face, correspondingly, Cheng Ling couldn't see Xiao Man's face either.

  So she didn't know that Xiao Man's face was also blushing at this time.

  It wasn't just a blush, his eyes fell behind Cheng Ling, their eyes were extraordinarily bright, full of affection, like a spirit fox that had succeeded in its scheme, momentarily proud.

   Neither of them said anything more, and the atmosphere gradually became peaceful.

  The sound of the ticking rain did not affect this tranquility, but instead made the atmosphere more gentle and long.

  Reality is always cruel. If you have a half-day leisure in Fusheng, it seems to be stolen.

  After a quarter of an hour, the rain finally stopped.

  Cheng Ling and Xiao Man did not stay in this cave for too long, Xiao Man still carried Cheng Ling on his back, and the two of them prepared to go down the mountain, check along the river, see the specific situation around them, and then decide where to go.

  Going downstream all the way, passing the reed marshes, you can see the green hills in front of you, and the outline of a village at the foot of the mountain.

  Cheng Ling suddenly felt a little familiar, she frowned and thought, and said, "Brother Xiao, let's go over there and ask for directions."

  If there is a village, there should be people—

  Yes, in theory there should be a family, but in reality, when Xiao Man and Cheng Ling approached, they found that the village was dilapidated and desolate. It's not that there are no people in the village, but they are all dead!

  An empty village where various rotting corpses can be seen everywhere.

  After the heavy rain, the stench seems to be suppressed, but all kinds of invisible evils are very likely to breed in the dark.

   Cheng Ling was afraid of the epidemic, so he hurriedly said: "Brother Xiao, let's go away!"

  Xiao Man also knew the seriousness of the matter, so he quickly performed lightness kung fu and retreated far away.

  Cheng Ling said in a daze: "Last year, I was fleeing famine with my mother, and I saw such a village before!"

  So, the dilapidated state of Qi must be conquered!

  The Southern Expedition of the Wei State was not just a conquest, it was a general trend of great unification, and it was an inevitable pain before peace.

  Cheng Ling said again: "Brother Xiao, wait for the sun to come out and dry this piece. I'm going to come over and light a fire..."

  Plague is more terrifying than thousands of troops.

   We must take precautions before they happen, and we must not let the epidemic grow.

  Xiao Man said: "Okay, I'll come with you."

   The two talked and walked for a while. Walking through all kinds of deserted fields, bypassing a small hillside, I suddenly met a group of people running in a hurry in front of me.

  The two people met on a narrow road, Xiao Man walked briskly with Cheng Ling on his back, while several people on the opposite side were supporting the old and the young, pushing carts and carrying luggage, but they walked awkwardly.

  When the two sides bumped into each other suddenly, several people on the opposite side screamed in unison, as if they had bumped into a stranger and panicked. Like a frightened bird, a bereaved dog.

   After a while, the person opposite managed to calm down.

  The main reason is that Cheng Ling and Xiao Man are only two people. Although Xiao Man is tall, he is handsome and not so vicious. Not to mention Cheng Ling, she was carried on Xiao Man's back, she looked like a war scum, and she gave people a "sense of security".

Cheng Lingke asked the way politely. Among the people on the opposite side, the leading old man seemed to be in his forties or fifties, but he waved his hands repeatedly and said with a sigh: "Ahead, there is indeed a city in front of it, Chixia City. But what's the use? Chixia City is occupied by the King of Heaven!"

  It turned out that Cheng Ling and Xiao Man came out of the undercurrent of Shenchuan, and they were rushed to the vicinity of Chixia City!

   No wonder Cheng Ling looks familiar when looking at the mountains and rivers here, isn't it just familiar?

   Cheng Ling was surprised and said: "The King of Heaven took Chixia City? When did this happen? Old man, you... came from Chixia City?"

The old man still waved his hand and said: "The peasant family, how can we live in Chixia City? We, even if we live around, hey, thanks to living outside the city, otherwise we wouldn't be able to escape! That city, now It's all sealed, no entry and no exit!"

Cheng Ling hurriedly asked the details again. Although the old man and his party looked in a hurry, they might be holding back and couldn't utter some words quickly. Therefore, after being questioned a few words, other people in the team also picked up Cheng Ling one after another. Talk stubble.

  A woman wiped her tears and said: "What a crime, the county guard became the king of Ming, and he came round after round to collect grain. After the grain collection was over, he was recruited. My family's Dalang Erlang didn't know where he was conscripted!"

  This refers to what happened after Wang Yong entered Qidu and proclaimed himself King Ming.

   Now, Qidu has actually been occupied by Wei Jun.

  But the ordinary people at the bottom didn't know the news. They only knew that one day the King Ming who conscripted soldiers and grain disappeared, but the Heavenly King moved in with great force.

   It was very dark, and the city wall was filled with people's heads, as if it was raining dumplings.

  The people around Chixia City used to live relatively well-off, but those who have been tortured in the past two years have died and scattered. Those who can stay until now before escaping are the ones who cannot leave their homeland.

   Half a quarter of an hour later, Cheng Ling and Xiao Man bid farewell to the old man's family.

  When the two sides passed by each other, Cheng Ling quietly put two grains of one or two silver coins in the old man's waist pouch. Not much, it won't help in the long run, but I also hope that the life of the poor can be a little easier.

  Chixia City has been occupied by Cangtian King, which Cheng Ling and Xiao Man did not expect in advance.

  Cheng Ling said: "Brother Xiao, I want to go to the mountain over there and take a look at Chixia City."
