Start with planting a tree

Chapter 60 Home
After a cup of tea, the three of them left the teahouse and came to Zhuque Street.

A person is tall and tall, and his white clothes are not stained with mortal dust.A tall, muscular man with piercing eyes but no eyebrows.The other was shorter than them, bearded and fleshy.

Although they came out very relaxed, at this moment Ning Zai felt a burning pain above his eyes.

Just now, when Meng Heyin disguised himself, he couldn't do it after studying for a long time.Finally, under Ming Rong's repeated urging, he reluctantly planned to shave off his eyebrows.

However, the razor broke after just a few shaves, Ming Rong refused to waste time looking for it, and Meng Heyin plucked out the remaining eyebrows one by one.

Thinking of the pain of plucking his eyebrows, Ning Zai felt sorry for him, and when he accidentally looked at Meng Heyin, he trembled unconsciously.

The two of them pretended to be Mingrong's guards, and Meng Heyin was by his side, of course they noticed his state.

So Meng Heyin took Ning Zai's shoulders and comforted him, "Don't be sad, I have a secret recipe for hair growth. After you use the medicine for a few days, your eyebrows will grow back."

"Ahem." Mingrong coughed twice, showing his presence, and then strode away alone.

Meng Heyin and Ning Zai followed.

Going west from the city gate is Kuding Lane.Kuding Lane is a large area of ​​poorly-equipped dwellings. There are many dilapidated temples and houses abandoned here. The roads are dilapidated and weeds grow here and there. Usually only some beggars would set foot here. Armored officers and soldiers.

With Kuding Lane as the center, the upper and lower alleys are all separated by barriers. The officers and soldiers have been eating and sleeping here since they moved in a few days ago.As for the local residents, they were basically driven to the open space in the south of the city, and some tents were hastily distributed to them.

When Meng Heyin came here, he happened to see a bell hanging on both sides of the alley.The shape is simple and not precious, just two ordinary bells.

There was nothing unusual in the alley, and the three of them walked quietly.When they passed by, there was no wind or waves, but the two bells rang twice.

"Ding bell~"

Crisp and urgent, like a signal for the beginning of something.

All three of them tensed up and looked around, but nothing happened.

"It's okay." Meng Heyin turned around and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "I was scared to death. The bell suddenly started to move. I thought someone was coming."

Ming Rong and Ning Zai also nodded, they were also slightly nervous just now.

Several people hurried through the alley, turned around and entered an abandoned house.This abandoned house has no door, and most of the walls have collapsed, but fortunately, the pattern is still there.The three walked into the inner room, and a few half walls could just block them from being discovered by people outside.

"The area surrounded by the alleys we walked through just now is the place where officers and soldiers are stationed." Ning Zai said, "From top to bottom, there are six alleys. There are about eight households in each alley, and each household has 50 people. There may be more than [-] people down."

Meng Heyin breathed out: "So many people have been mobilized, it seems that the victory against Luojiangzhai is inevitable."

"What should we do next?" Ming Rong said, "According to your original plan, I'm afraid it's not feasible."

Meng Heyin's original plan was for the few of them to create civil strife among the officers and soldiers, and then blame the bandits in Luojiangzhai.But right now there are so many officers and soldiers, and the places where they are stationed are all hand in hand.

If they really acted like that, they might be discovered before they acted.Even if the force value crushes those officers and soldiers, it will be difficult to get them out of the city after they are discovered.

Not to mention whether they had the opportunity to tell, even if they told the officers and soldiers the truth, they might be considered a trap set by Luojiangzhai.

"If we tell Xue Jing directly, will he listen to us?" Meng Heyin asked.

"No." Ning Zai shook his head, seeing Meng Heyin's confusion, explained, "Xue Jing is extremely selfish, if he just said that Luojiangzhai will attack Qiongzhou in two days, he will definitely take the guards out of the city early, Rescued his son and the two fled together."

"Is that so..." Meng Heyin sighed, with a contemptuous expression on his face, "That's really despicable."

Mingrong knocked on the wall with his fingertips unconsciously, and made a "da da da" sound: "According to what you said, since it doesn't work at all, it's better to be at ease, wait for them to call, and see how Xue Jing responds. "

Before he finished speaking, Ning Zai raised his fist at Ming Rong, making a gesture to hit him.

"Let them do evil, where do you put the people of Qiongzhou?! Don't you have parents?!"

Meng Heyin hurriedly stopped Ning Zai and persuaded him, "Don't be angry, don't be angry, he is from another place, and he really doesn't have any feelings for Qiongzhou."

Ming Rong was still at ease, and gave Ning Zai a provocative smile, as if saying: "Hit me, hit me!"

Ning Zai was even angrier when he saw his rascal appearance.

And Mingrong knocked on the wall without taking it too seriously, the knocking became more and more brisk, and finally he even felt like he was playing a tune.

"enough!"

A roar from Meng Heyin startled the two people who were fighting.

"There is no end, since you want to follow me, don't say useless sarcastic remarks, don't get angry for nothing!"

Ning Zai held his breath and said nothing.

Ming Rong still showed a look of neediness.

Meng Heyin quickly pulled him aside, biting his ear.

"That's enough. Although you don't care about these people's lives, this is other people's homes after all. Why do you want to provoke them?"

What Meng Heyin said inside and outside the words was to stand on the opposite side of himself.Besides, judging from her meaning, it seems that she and Ning Zai are real fellow villagers, but it is clear that Meng Heyin is not from Jiang Guo at all like herself.

Mingrong felt sour in his heart, "What do you mean, you also regard this place as your home?"

Meng Heyin paused.

Whether this is her home, she doesn't know.She doesn't know if she is Meng Heyin.It's just that when she knew about Ji Qiao's self-care by the enemy's side, she had a tendency.

She never wanted to see anything like this again.

Obviously, Luojiangzhai's attack on Qiongzhou County may cause countless such tragedies!

She can't let these things happen!

Complicated things came to mind, Meng Heyin finally said to Mingrong: "I haven't thought about what you said. But I don't want to let the people around me die in vain."

"The people around me..." Mingrong was also stunned for a moment, his eyes darkened, he didn't know what he thought of, then he stroked Meng Heyin's hair and said, "Okay."

When Meng Heyin talked about "people around him", images of two people gradually appeared in his mind.

Thinking that Lu Wei and Bai Miao had been waiting for him at the city gate these days, Meng Heyin suddenly felt that it was a sin for him to play so happily in Luojiang Village.

but……

Only then did Meng Heyin realize his identity.If they wanted to persuade Xue Jing, wouldn't it be a good choice to start with the Meng family?
Since Lu Wei and Bai Miao are still at the city gate...

A plan slowly took shape in Meng Heyin's mind, and then he called Ning Zai over, and the three got together.

"I thought of a way, we can do this..."
