Chapter 89 Letter
This sudden scream made everyone panic.
"Everyone be careful!"
"good."
Jiayi quickly came out of the cave and protected Su Chengnan, "Miss, please step back."
Su Chengnan never joked about himself, so he pushed Chen Gang back without saying a word.
Chen Gang's face was solemn. He pricked up his ears and listened carefully for a while. "There is no movement nearby. The sound came from the valley in the northwest."
Su Chengnan was surprised by his reaction, and Jia nodded, "Yes, it is quite a distance away from us, it doesn't look like it is coming towards us."
"Everyone take shelter first and cover the entrance to the cave."
"Yes, miss."
Jia Yi took Liu Laosan and others and quickly packed up.
These branches used for decoration were prepared in advance and placed near the cave. Move them over and cover them up. If you don't look carefully, you won't be able to find any trace of the cave.
He was watching outside, and if there was anything wrong, he would lead the people away in time and would not give people a chance to take a closer look.
Sun Liangyuan leaned over the tree branches and watched, "That sound doesn't sound right. Could there really be some private soldiers hiding in the mountains?"
Chen Gang clenched the slingshot in his hand, stretched his neck, squinted his eyes and said: "Let's not scare ourselves first."
"Yes, I believe our luck is not that bad!" Su Chengnan's heart was in his throat, but he could only say soothing words.
"Yes, yes, yes, all of you stay still and keep your voice down!"
“Hmm…”
Village chief Yu was holding a cane to supervise everyone, but Goudan was the only one who was not afraid at all and wanted to pull Yu Bao to the front.
Fortunately, his mother stopped the two men.
…
After a while.
There were footsteps in the woods outside.
"Boss!"
"Come quickly!"
It’s Gangzi’s voice! !
Su Chengnan was eager to push away the branches that were covering her, but Chen Gang stopped her, "Don't be impatient, wait a little longer."
Liu Laosan ignored him and said, "What are you waiting for? This Gangzi is the lady's man, how can you not trust him?"
Chen Gang paused, an embarrassed expression on his face. He had to silently retract his hand that was hanging in the air without saying anything else.
Seeing this, Su Chengnan tried to smooth things over and ease the atmosphere: "Be careful, that's right."
Sun Liangyuan stroked his beard and nodded, "Yes, we have so many old, weak, sick and disabled people, so we have to be careful."
Su Chengnan closed the hole that Liu Laosan had opened, leaving a gap the size of a palm to continue observing.
Gangzi brought back a man covered in blood.
He was wearing a coarse linen shirt, with mud all over the front of his shirt and his legs. His skin was dark and he didn't look like a person from this area.
"He fell off a cliff. Fortunately, he landed on a tree, otherwise he would have died."
"Where's Mifeng?"
"He said he had to go pick some grass to save this man. He'll be right back."
Liu Laosan squatted on the ground and took a look, "What's in this man's pocket? It's so bulging?" As he spoke, he reached out his hand, put it into the man's lapel, and took out a letter on the spot.
Jiayi caught a glimpse of the envelope and immediately became anxious.
"etc!"
“You can’t look at that!”
He grabbed it in a hurry, which scared Liu Laosan so much that he lost his balance and fell to the ground with a cry of "Ouch".
When Gangzi saw the letter in Jiayi's hand, his face changed. The two looked at each other and hurriedly moved the people into the woods.
Su Chengnan and Chen Gang looked at the two people's strange behavior and couldn't help but become puzzled. Chen Gang was very perceptive: "This person's identity may be problematic."
"Yeah. I guess so. I don't know what's so strange about the letter."
Liu Laosan slumped on the ground, dumbfounded, and began to curse: "I just wanted to see what it was, I didn't plan to take it, don't misunderstand me."
At this time, Jia Yi rushed up like an arrow, and without even having time to pay attention to Liu Laosan, he went straight into the cave.
Su Chengnan was unable to dodge and was almost knocked down by him.
"Miss, something has happened! Take a look at this letter."
"Um?"
When Chen Gang saw the envelope, his face suddenly changed. Seeing this, Su Chengnan didn't dare to ask any more questions or waste any more time, and directly opened the envelope.
There was a letter inside.
Urgent military report.
This is? Prince Ningyuan’s handwritten letter! !
In Su Chengnan's study in the villa, Lu Chaofeng showed her the prince's letter. If she remembered correctly, it was written by the prince himself.
She read through it three lines at a glance.
My heart has fallen into the abyss.
Finished.
It's a mess.
Her hand trembled, and Chen Gang immediately took the letter from her.
Sun Liangyuan was standing behind him.
The two of them gasped almost at the same time.
The situation at the border is becoming increasingly difficult. We don't know where the White Bear Nation entered the border from, and we are being attacked from both sides. Reinforcements and food supplies are slow to arrive. If this continues, we may not be able to hold out for much longer.
"Attack from front and back?"
"Where on earth did the people from White Bear Country come from?"
Sun Liangyuan didn't have a deep understanding of the terrain, so he asked directly when he couldn't figure it out.
Chen Gang and Jia Yi had been stationed in that area with Su Weimin before. Although they were relatively familiar with the area, they didn't know what was going on in this White Bear Country.
"Open the door and let us in."
"It's all right."
Mi Feng's voice sounded.
A moved the branch away.
I saw him coming in with a gloomy face, followed by Liu Laosan and Gangzi, but that man was nowhere to be seen.
"What happened?" Su Chengnan asked.
"Fuck him! I didn't even save him?! I'm so angry."
Mi Feng was very angry at the moment. He always paid attention to his appearance, but now his hair had been tied into a mess.
Gangzi shook his head at Su Chengnan and the others behind him, made a hushing gesture, and then handed over a token.
The word "Ning" is engraved on the bronze token.
Su Chengnan took it, and then threw it directly into the space by putting it into his sleeve.
She thought to herself: This thing represented the other party in ancient times. If someone with ulterior motives used it to cause trouble, Lu Chaofeng would have one more headache. It would be better for her to just be a good person.
The remaining few people looked at the letter, then looked at her, and for a moment they looked at each other in confusion.
Su Chengnan asked: "What do you think?"
Jiayi: "We can't get any news in the mountains, we have to get out quickly. Go to where there are more people."
Chen Gang shook his head: "A place with a lot of people is probably already in chaos. The White Bear Nation was able to come in quietly, I'm afraid... someone is colluding with them."
Sun Liangyuan hated the court, but he had a clear view of the situation. He pondered for a moment: "Whether it is chaotic or not depends on the border and Mincheng. If this place is calm, then as long as the prince can hold on for this period of time, he will be safe. But if..."
He didn't finish his words, everyone already understood.
Su Chengnan thought about it and made a decision in his heart.
"That person just fell. If he is careful, he will definitely come down to look for his body and will definitely find this letter."
"As for whether Mincheng is in chaos or not, it depends on how many refugees there are on the road. So, we have to set off now!"
"We can't wait any longer!"
