Chapter 490 Uncertain
There were several groups of robbers encountered on the road alone.

If they hadn't been walking together in a large group, people from well-off families had long-term workers in their homes, and these long-term workers were not like scholars like them. They picked up hatchets and kitchen knives to frighten away those who wanted to rob. Maybe I won’t even be able to eat such dry steamed buns.

"I heard that the bandits who were really successful were all eliminated by the convoy that was walking outside." The rest were all unseemly.

Otherwise, let alone keeping food, it would be difficult for people like them to keep their lives.

"Huaiwen, do you think we can enter the city?" Chu Huaiwen's roommate was spoiled and almost vomited at the steamed buns in his hand.

But he had no choice. The most expensive thing along the way was food. No matter how rich his family was, he couldn't spend all the money on food.

"I don't know." Chu Huaiwen looked at the dried steamed buns handed to him by his roommate. He was also physically and mentally exhausted, although his family was not as rich as his roommate's family.

But his family is not poor. Secretly, since he was a child, his food and clothing have been as good as those of the good families in the town.

Mrs. Liu often bought him some medicinal materials and stewed some good brain-tonifying things.

And those medicinal materials and ingredients for stew are not something that can be bought with just a few coins.

So this was the first time Chu Huaiwen had eaten this shriveled corn bun.

But just like his roommate - no matter how much he dislikes rejection, he still eats when he is hungry and dizzy.

And he was lucky. His roommate's family was well prepared for the escape, not only bringing some dry food, but also clothing.

And his roommate didn't dislike him yet, so he could change his clothes on the way and not stink like a beggar.

"Thank you." Chu Huaiwen took the steamed buns handed to him by his roommate and started to chew them silently.

His roommate also seemed to be used to Chu Huaiwen's reticence and sighed, "My dad and the others have already gone to the front to ask. There are a lot of people queuing outside the city now. The city is completely controlled and no one can come in or out at will. But as students of Chen Yang Academy, we might be able to get in."

After all, everything is inferior, only reading is high.

They scholars are not those vulgar villagers who are illiterate. After entering the city, it is impossible for them to become a public security problem in the city.

"uncertain."

Chu Huaiwen looked at the long queue in front of him. He couldn't see the end at all. He could only vaguely see the queue at the tall city gate. "Now that the two armies are fighting, there will definitely be spies who want to enter the city to cause damage. The review of entering the city will be very... It’s strict, even when we go out of town, so even if we are scholars.”

The chance of getting privileged entry is not very good...

When the roommate heard what Chu Huaiwen said, his heart sank. The reason why his family kept bringing Chu Huaiwen with him along the way was not only because of his own personal friendship for Chu Huaiwen, his roommate. , but also because of their admiration for Chu Huaiwen's wisdom.

If Chu Huaiwen hadn't taken the initiative and suggested that all the students from Chenyang Academy go together, if they had gone alone, they would have been robbed by those incompetent bandits.

When they bought food later, it was Chu Huaiwen's wit that prevented them from buying a bag of fake food filled with sand and gravel.

In short, Chu Huaiwen didn't eat much along the way, but he helped them a lot. Their family was very grateful to Chu Huaiwen and believed in Chu Huaiwen's words.

Since Chu Huaiwen said it was not certain, it might be that it was really not certain...
