Chapter 247: As long as the Xie family doesn't move, there will be no big deal
There are bandits on the road ahead, and their lives or deaths are unknown. Hiding in Yucheng will keep you away from the King of Hell.
Everyone thought the same thing.
As for Xie Yuchuan, he packed his bags and set off early in the morning. He told his family about his thoughts in advance.
No one in the Xie family objected. The women in the family all listened to Old Madam Xie. The old madam agreed, and they had no objections. They just didn't know how far Xie Yuchuan and the other men wanted to go, and whether they could help.
"There will naturally be hard work for the aunts in the future."
That's fine. We're all family, so there's no need to make such a clear distinction between inside and outside.
For a day and a night, Xie Yuchuan, Zhang Dayi and others privately discussed the issue of suppressing bandits.
After Han Qiguang's departure, Zhang Dayi's gaze towards Xie Yuchuan became even more intriguing. The Xie family's foundation was truly endless. Just when he thought the Xie family was at its wit's end, he would turn around and see another path. Just when he felt trapped in shallow waters, unable to exert his strength, Xie Yuchuan, at such a young age, gave him another glimpse into how the children of a prestigious family prepared for a rainy day.
All the masters were exiled in shackles, but Xie Yuchuan still had people outside who could be used by him.
Zhang Dayi suddenly felt that the sixth son of the Xie family's desire to suppress the bandits was not groundless, and he must have his reasons.
The old man didn't know how to suppress bandits, but he had some knowledge of how to be an official. It was not easy for a poor family to become an official. Zhang Dayi deeply agreed with this. If he had not had a famous scholar as his teacher, his official career would not have been so smooth.
Xie Yuchuan asked him how he could get a young man like the governor of Yucheng to help in suppressing the bandits.
Zhang Dayi helped him come up with an excuse, "In this case, I believe the city guard will come to see the young general in person."
After listening to it, Xie Yuchuan felt deeply benefited and was very grateful.
After lunch, Xiong Jiushan felt a vague sense of uneasiness in his left chest. He didn't know why, and after trying to calm himself down for a long time, the feeling didn't go away. When he thought about the things he had been worried about for the past two days, his ears also hurt.
He was upset and couldn't help but get up and look around. As he walked, he unknowingly came near the Xie family.
Xie family.
An existence that made him feel extremely complicated.
If he completes this mission well, Xiong Jiushan will rise to a high position in the world. If he fails to complete it well, his head will be on the line immediately.
Xie Yuchuan's gaze met Xiong Jiushan's. He thought for a moment and asked, "Are you worried that bandits might come down the mountain and harm your family?"
Xie Yuchuan's eyes flickered indifferently, and he did not directly answer Xiong Jiushan's question, but simply said: "In battle, it is easy to dodge an open spear but difficult to guard against an arrow from the dark."
After hearing this, Xiong Jiushan nodded and left.
Xie Wenjie, standing nearby, happened to overhear the conversation between Sixth Brother and Mr. Xiong. He was momentarily surprised: "Mr. Xiong's question is quite strange. What does it mean to worry about your family? Who wouldn't worry?"
Xie Wuying squatted comfortably beside him. "I see, our Sixth Brother isn't worried, but he is quite worried."
"Talk less." Xie Wenjie was always worried that one day he would get into trouble because of his foul mouth.
Xie Wuying said helplessly, "You scholars have too many rules for details."
Xie Yuchuan spoke a fair word on behalf of his cousin Xie Wenjie: "Huai Zhang's words make sense, you should pay attention to them."
"Yes, Sixth Brother!"
Xie Wenjie couldn't bear to look at him.
Little flatterer.
Ever since he learned that his young general was determined to suppress the bandits, and with the appearance of Han Qiguang, the matter seemed to have some clues, as if it was not a castle in the air that could not be accomplished.
All the men in the Xie family have enough shackles and chains on their bodies!
Fighting the bandits brought out boundless strength in the hearts of all the men in the Xie family. The discomfort caused by exile finally found an outlet for them to vent.
Once a person has a goal, his spirit and energy will become very different.
Even if it looks like the same face and behavior on the surface, I always feel like something has changed.
Ordinary people cannot tell what these strong men of the Xie family are doing.
But there are always some smart people in the exile team. These people who once had a glorious life in the capital, as long as they have not been frightened by the difficulties of the exile, they can draw a shocking conclusion from the small changes in the details of the Xie family.
The Xie family seemed to be preparing for something.
This alone quickly made some of the exiles alert.
Especially those who had some military experience, their eyes changed when they secretly observed the Xie family's guards adjusting their status with a purpose.
Oh no, the Xie family’s actions seem like something big is going to happen.
Soon, some people in the team began to become silent. When the officials served the food and told them not to leave the city today, they did not eat up the food without restraint. Instead, they carefully observed the actions of the Xie family and decided whether they needed to save more food for today in order to deal with unexpected accidents.
When people are stripped of their pampered lives and fall into a survival crisis, their potential will be stimulated and their alertness to danger will become more acute little by little over time.
The men in the Xie family have no food left.
It can be seen that there will not be any major accidents in the short term, so some people will eat all the food and accumulate the energy in their bodies. Some are more cautious and will leave one-third or one-half depending on their physical condition.
Then, the men of the Xie family did not sleep after eating as usual. Instead, they took a short rest and then started practicing martial arts one by one. On the surface, they were just looking around and kicking, or a few of them were just practicing their skills out of boredom, but anyone with a discerning eye could see the crux of the matter at a glance.
As long as the Xie family doesn't move, nothing will happen.
If the Xie family has any unusual movements, it will definitely be a place where life is in danger.
Some families who had been exiled with the Xie family for many days vaguely sensed a clue from the different mental states of Xie Wuying and other Xie family guards.
Whether this matter is true or false, I dare not comment rashly.
But after one or two people did this, gradually, there were fewer complaints in the exile team, and more people quietly got up and took a walk after dinner.
In times of danger, physical strength is the life-saving force.
Some people who didn't understand lay on the ground and secretly sneered, "You guys are really full and bored. You ate a few mouthfuls of dry food and you're still trying to train. How much good can a few mouthfuls do? You might as well just lie still and not get tired quickly."
The anomaly in the team was quickly noticed by the old yamen runner with a sharp eye. The old runner stared for a long time and finally found that many people's eyes were vaguely staring at the Xie family, and only then did the change occur.
A sense of danger quickly flashed across the old yamen runner's cloudy eyes.
He turned around and reported to Xiong Jiushan.
After hearing this, Xiong Jiushan frowned and said, "Go call Xie Yuchuan over!"
On his left, Taoist Guanghan stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Sir, I heard that the exiled sixth son of the Xie family can communicate with the gods. Although I am not very talented, I really want to exchange ideas."
