Chapter 393: A Man Should Be Like This
In a moment of thought.
Xie Yuchuan then understood the special feature of the spear in his hand.
With the magic weapon in hand, he was like a tiger with wings. He suddenly exuded a cold aura, standing at his side with a spear in his hand, and behind him seemed to be the momentum of thousands of troops.
Xiong Jiushan unconsciously restrained his breath and his mind was shocked.
He knew very well that the other party was now a criminal and was just a fugitive under his nose.
However, at this moment, those things that usually disappeared behind Xie Yuchuan made him feel envious.
This is what a man should be like, fighting on the battlefield and serving his country. This is the heroic life that makes people yearn for.
Xie Yuchuan's gaze swept from the high tip of the gun to the ground, and finally his eyes fell on what was in his hand. His heart moved slightly, and he concentrated for a moment, and the thing in his hand disappeared in an instant!
Xiong Jiushan's eyelids trembled slightly, and he loosened his arm unconsciously. Before he could say anything, his eyes blurred and he saw the silver spear emerge from Xie Yuchuan's hand again!
Xiong Jiushan's mood was up and down.
When Xie Yuchuan saw the spear in his hand change as he had guessed, he was immediately very happy.
It can be retracted or released, and its weight can be changed in the hand. Such a weapon has never been seen before. If the exile team was not about to set off, he would definitely give it a try.
The silver spear disappeared from his hand again.
Xiong Jiushan looked at him with a different look than before.
"……you?"
When the words came to his lips, Xiong Jiushan even had questions in his heart and didn't know how to say them.
He looked at Xie Yuchuan, who was standing in front of him with a normal expression, and really wanted to ask him, you are a fugitive being escorted, you should have endured the dusty journey all the way to Laozhou, but now your Xie family gods have protected you to this extent, you, Xie Yuchuan, and your Xie family, do you still want to continue to go to the north?
If Xiong Jiushan was not an official appointed by the court today, he would really blurt it out!
But he can't.
He trembled for a long time but still couldn't say anything.
He simply reminded her, "You must remember that you are still burdened by the label of a fugitive, so when you act..."
Halfway through his words, Xiong Jiushan really felt that what he said was all nonsense.
How does he want Xie Yuchuan to behave?
Be more well behaved?
Or more low-key?
Xie Yuchuan is the only one who doesn't want to cause trouble now. Otherwise, with the weapons he has and the men of the Xie family behind him, it would be "considerate" for them to be willing to accompany him all the way to Laozhou.
Just put yourself in his shoes and think about it. If Xiong Jiushan was punished and exiled to this situation, but had the same adventure as Xie Yuchuan, would he still be willing to be controlled by others?
Xiong Jiushan didn't dare to think about it.
"Thank you, General, for your understanding of the righteousness. I am a humble official and my words carry little weight. I am only following orders. I hope you will show mercy and take good care of me in the future."
After much thought, it is better to cooperate than to confront.
Sure enough, it was just as Xie Yuchuan had said when he came to discuss with him.
"It's a matter of your lordship, and I'm speaking too seriously."
Xiong Jiushan forced a smile and glanced out the window. "It's getting late. We'd better set off early."
The two bowed to each other and said goodbye.
Xie Yuchuan returned to his family, while Xiong Jiushan stayed in the house, thinking for a long time before turning around and leaving with a knife in hand.
Walking through the middle corridor, we found that the team in the inn courtyard was ready and ready to set off at any time.
From a distance, his eyes met Xie Yuchuan, who was standing tall next to the carriage. His gaze paused for a moment, then glanced around, and then nodded to his subordinates below.
Cheng Ye turned around with the knife in hand and shouted, "Let's go——"
Suddenly, shouts broke out in the yard.
The exile team, which had stayed briefly in Yucheng, set off again under the scorching sun after noon, intending to pass through the inner city and exit from the other gate.
This route was something he and Xie Yuchuan had discussed long ago.
Before leaving, Gan Rong, the innkeeper, and several of his servants stood at the door to see him off.
Before leaving, Xiong Jiushan looked at him deeply but said nothing.
Gan Rong said a lot of nice things attentively and gave a bag of the best peach blossom cakes.
Xiong Jiushan had it taken away, left a word "thank you", turned around and jumped on his horse in front.
When he saw his family members at the back, Gan Rong was so excited that he rubbed his hands but could only stand beside the marching team and watch the Xie family members go north.
Only after the entire group had left did Gan Rong stamp his feet and, shivering, return to the inn lobby. Hugging the stove, he instructed the waiter, "Close the shop, put up the shutters, and remember to hang a sign outside saying 'Closed for two days', so people won't come asking."
"Yes! Shopkeeper."
The guys started working quickly.
Gan Rong held the heater and after he recovered, he went to the bottom of the cabinet, pulled out a small bag, stuffed it into his arms, and went upstairs to his room.
When I opened the bundle, I found a list.
Gan Rong picked up the pen, moistened the tip of the pen with his tongue, and buried his head in his work.
Not long after, he released a few pigeons from the window.
A cold wind blew in. Gan Rong put his hands in his sleeves and looked at the flying pigeon with envy.
That’s great. He also wanted to grow a pair of wings and fly to Laozhou with the old lady and the major general.
There was a knock on the door.
"Boss, the people at Jishiditang are asking why we closed down. How should we respond?"
Gan Rong closed the window and replied, "It's not easy to serve an official. I want to take a break for two days and rest up."
"Okay!"
Just as the waiter was about to leave, he saw the door being opened from the inside.
"What else do you want, boss?"
Gan Rong whispered, "I have to go out for the next two days. If there is anything going on in the store, please help me."
The clerk nodded, "Be careful, boss."
Gan Rong nodded and said, "Go ahead."
After the waiter left, Gan Rong went into the box and took out a set of gray-black casual clothes. After disguising himself in front of the mirror for a while, he went downstairs to the backyard. After opening a small door on one side and looking out, he saw that there was no one around, so he walked out and disappeared among the crowd in an instant.
*
This time the exile group moved forward differently than before.
Xiong Jiushan led a team of people in the front to support the formation. Behind them were the prisoners who were divided. Most of the prisoners who were disobedient on weekdays were in the front, while those who were relatively content to be escorted were in the middle row. Xie Yuchuan brought Xie Yuchuan and his men, as well as the prisoners who had become slightly closer to the Xie family due to unexpected changes in recent days. Cheng Ye led a team of people to escort them on the left and right at the back.
On the contrary, the relatively old, weak, sick and disabled people were escorted by another team of police officers and yamen runners from the rear.
The group of fugitives passed by the Yucheng County Government Office. Xiong Jiushan, riding on the horse sent by the Tian family, saw Cao Qi, who was beside Feng Chen, standing outside the county government office from afar.
So he whipped his horse a few times, rushed over, and dismounted.
"Emperor Cao? I heard along the way that Magistrate Feng is ill. I wonder if you could ask a doctor to treat him?"
Cao Qi stepped forward and said politely, "Your Excellency has had a difficult life, but you are blessed with good fortune. I have consulted a doctor and you are feeling better now. Since Sir Xiong is leaving Yucheng today, why don't you come in and say goodbye to him?"
