Chapter 217 Is anyone alive?

The young man was handsome and about the same age as her.

There is also a sister at home with whom she can talk.

More importantly, the Zhao family's family background is innocent and simple, and the family is well-off. It is exactly the place she dreams of living an ordinary life.

This time, it wasn't that Wen Chaoyan lost confidence in his own stature.

It was actually because he had clearly felt Jiang Wancheng's approach in the secret realm of Tianyun Palace that day.

But later, when he revealed his future ambitions and the future he wanted to pursue, he immediately noticed her retreating again...

Wen Chaoyan sighed heavily in his heart.

He naturally understood that the family feud had not been avenged, the career had not been accomplished, and he was not suitable to be involved in these love affairs between men and women in this life, but he met her anyway.

Tell him to let go.

How can I bear it?

Or understand that as long as you miss her, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get her back in this life...

And in the past few years when he was as miserable as a nightmare, her appearance was not the only comfort and light for Wen Chaoyan?

If it's someone else, that's it.

But it happened to be her...

She is the little girl of the Jiang family who has had a deep connection with the Wen family since she was a child.

After bandaging Wen Chaoyan's wound, Jiang Wancheng returned to the room and changed his dressing.

Then he went to the kitchen and got busy eating.

Yesterday, when she and Wen Chaoyan returned to Zhaojiacun, they took down the bodies of the four ducks and four geese that were killed by the bandits in their home on Wushan Mountain.

Wen Chaoyan also brought a hare and a pheasant.

These two things are for the Zhao family.

In the kitchen cave, Jiang Wancheng found four hens and a basket of eggs that Wen Erlang had hidden. Fortunately, these chickens were still alive, but they were starving and listless.

It's really hard for Wen Erlang. He used to be afraid of sharp-beaked animals like chickens, but now he's not afraid anymore.

Jiang Wancheng hurriedly went to the field to pull a handful of vegetables, then mixed it with chaff and fed it to them.

Wen Chaoyan changed into clean clothes in the room and wiped the blood all over his body with hot water several times.

When he came out, Jiang Wancheng was already chopping ducks and killing geese.

What she was thinking was that they were all dead anyway, so she might as well eat them all.

Now everyone is trapped in the secret room, and they don't know when they will be dead, and they have been very hungry these two days.

Adults can still hold on, but if they stay in the dark for a long time, children and the elderly may be the first to have problems.

Therefore, Jiang Wancheng decided to salt the four geese first and store them for two more days.

Let's chop up these four ducks and make a big pot of duck soup.

I took out all the flour at home and prepared to steam a few more pots of steamed buns.

Wen Chaoyan saw that she was almost too busy alone and did not dare to withdraw at will, so he followed her and started to fight.

After the steamed buns came out of the two pots, the duck soup in the big iron pot also began to smell fragrant.

At this moment, someone suddenly shouted in the village.

"Is there anyone else!? From Zhaojiacun, are there any of you alive?"

Wen Chaoyan immediately pulled the ax next to the door, placed Jiang Wancheng in the house, and quietly walked out.

Before Jiang Wancheng had time to extinguish the firewood in the stove, he heard the announcement of gongs and drums -

"The county master has come to Qingyang Town - the county master has come to Qingyang Town - you no longer need to hide, you no longer need to be afraid of bandits -"

"The camp six hundred miles away has garrisoned troops - the camp six hundred miles away has garrisoned troops -"

"All the gangsters have been captured, and they have all been captured -" "All the gangsters have been captured, and they have all been captured -"

"Boom-thump-"

The gongs and drums rang loudly, and the messenger soldiers on horseback shouted and galloped down the path of Zhaojiacun.

Although they were shouting great news, the whole village was still dead silent.

Until the soldier rode his horse to the door of the only house in the village that was smoking.

Seeing a tall man in black outside the courtyard, the soldier immediately turned over and dismounted and asked: "This man, have all the people in this village except you been killed by the bandits?"

Wen Chaoyan first looked the soldier up and down, and instead of answering he asked, "Is everything you said true? Are the county master and the garrison all here?"

The soldier didn't know why, but he didn't dare to underestimate the villager in front of him, and was even inexplicably afraid of him.

The soldier saw that this man was not only cold and mighty, but also full of evil aura...

Xiao Bing even had some doubts. Could this person be the same gangster?

Just as he was about to touch the weapon on his waist, a delicate girl walked out of the room.

The girl half covered her face, stood at the door, and asked in a low voice: "Brother, is it really the county master who is here? Are all those gangsters really caught? We don't have to be afraid anymore?"

The soldier who ordered the order was relieved.

He said forcefully: "Of course it's all true! People from our barracks will be here soon. You all should come out quickly. There is no need to hide anymore!"

After saying that, the soldier got on the horse, turned the horse's head and left quickly.

After shouting the order several more times, the soldier went to the next village.

When Jiang Wancheng saw the person walking away, he immediately followed Wen Chaoyan.

"We must quickly notify the brave gentlemen to come out and carry the corpses away first, otherwise we will scare the women and children!"

Wen Chaoyan nodded, and the two of them headed to Zhao Liang's house, which was nearby.

Zhao Liang and the others secretly passed by, and someone had already heard the sound and poked their head at the door.

Seeing Wen Chaoyan's appearance, Zhao Liang and others were very excited.

"Mr. Wen Dalang, what is going on outside at this moment? Why do we hear someone shouting, the county master is here? Are there any other troops stationed..."

Wen Chaoyan nodded: "It's indeed them. Everyone is safe."

Everyone cheered immediately.

Jumping with joy, he opened the door wide and let everyone out.

In the past two days, everyone has been really depressed.

Wen Chaoyan immediately shouted that there was no rush, and then told the situation outside again. Everyone's expressions changed slightly, and they all looked a little scared.

"Of course, this is not a problem. Mr. Wen Dalang, if it weren't for you this time, we would definitely not be alive. You are right, we need to deal with these corpses first!"

"In that case, let's arrange for some people to come out first!"

There were several people on Zhao Liang's side, and Wen Chaoyan and Jiang Wancheng immediately rushed to the school.

Along the way, Wen Chaoyan looked worried.

Seeing that he seemed worried, Jiang Wancheng couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with you? Everyone is safe. Isn't this a good thing?"

Wen Chaoyan said: "The county magistrate and the officers and soldiers from the military camp all arrived by chance. It's as if someone had notified them in advance and predicted that there would be this riot and disaster."

Jiang Wancheng thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case.

Wen Chaoyan lowered his head to look at her and asked again: "My lady thought that regarding the secret book of Tianyun Palace, this matter has caused such a big fuss in Qingyang Town, but there has been no movement from the court some time ago. Who wrote it?"

After Jiang Wancheng was silent for a moment, he expressed his guess: "Is it that all the forces within the imperial court also want to get it?"
