Chapter 220: Soldiers in Mubei County

There were too many refugees along the way. Gan Fanren saw three or five groups of disaster victims gathered together during the day.

There were so many people, and their eyes looked greedy.

Today we can't sleep in the wild like we did in the past few days.

The brothers have been killing bandits and rushing on the road, and they are already exhausted. If someone attacks at night, they may not be able to fight back in time.

"Brothers, let's not rest in the wild today. Let's go to the inn in the city to rest for two days."

"Please hold on a little longer."

Hearing that they were going to the city to rest, everyone became energetic and hurried on.

When they arrived at the town, as expected, they saw someone collecting money at the city gate.

Gan Fanren paid the money happily.

The two old ladies in the team were very distressed.

If this much money is saved, it is enough to buy a lot of food and cloth.

The carriage slowly entered the city, and the situation in the city was not much better than outside the city.

There were beggars everywhere.

There was desire in their eyes. When they saw Gan Fanren, they wanted to rush over, but when they saw that the guards around Gan Fanren had knives, they sat down again.

Jinyang Pass was not like this half a year ago, but in just half a year, it has fallen to this point.

Thinking of the singing and dancing in the royal capital, a scene of harmony, Gongsun Yue was quite moved.

He looked ahead and said suddenly: "I wonder how the people in Mubei County are doing now."

Although he has been in contact with his family, the letters from his family did not mention the situation in the city.

He was in the royal capital, so naturally he could not feel the plight of the outside world. Now he saw it and knew what kind of life the people outside the royal capital lived.

Their team no longer had the excitement they had just had when they defeated the bandits. They were in an especially heavy mood.

Business in the inns was slow now, and most of them were empty. Gan Fanren and his team found an inn that looked relatively large and stayed there.

The innkeeper was very attentive when he saw them.

After they checked in, they fell asleep.

Everyone was very tired, except Gan Tian, ​​who was the most energetic.

She had been carried all the way, and had hardly used up any energy. After what happened during the day, she was so excited that she could hardly sleep.

She looked through the virtual city system, the meager gold coins inside, and the boxes of treasures placed underneath, and she had a bad idea.

With so much gold, I thought that if there was a little less, her father wouldn't know.

She thought about it and tried to get up from the bed. Her little hands and feet were so weak that she almost tripped.

She refused to give up and crawled out firmly.

When she crawled to the bed, she stretched out her short legs and dug in the air several times.

Her little feet kicked in the air several times but failed to touch the ground. She searched in the system warehouse with difficulty and finally found the diapers. She used the system warehouse's feature of placing items according to coordinates to stack the diapers.

She climbed on the diapers, making rustling sounds. She was so nervous that she didn't dare to breathe.

She raised her head and found that the adults didn't react. She thought she was keeping it secret, so she exerted all her strength and crawled towards the box.

Hui Niang quietly poked Gan Fanren, and the two of them watched quietly as Gan Tian struggled to crawl to the big box.

Gan Tian's legs were weak, so she could only stand up with the help of something. She didn't know what was in the box, so she couldn't just take it away. She crawled around the box several times, but couldn't find a way to open it.

The box was too heavy, and it was not something a little kid like her could open.

She looked at it for a long time, sighed deeply, and could only crawl back to bed helplessly.

Hui Niang's originally tense mood was amused by the little guy.

She thought she would have a nightmare at night, but she didn't expect that the dream was full of short legs of a lady.

When she woke up in the morning, she couldn't help staring at Gan Tian's short legs.

Such short legs, will they grow bigger?

Gan Fanren asked the guards to take turns to rest.

The guards went to buy some necessary items while they were in the city.

Everyone went out excitedly, but came back dejected.

"The prices are too high now, ten cents for a cake, but only one cent before."

"Everyone says that the prices in the capital are expensive, but I think the prices in Jinyang Pass are much more expensive than in the capital. The big cake in the capital is only five cents."

The guards looked at Gan Fanren's wooden wheel cart and fell into deep thought.

Although this wooden wheel cart is big, it can only hold a limited amount of things. Can it support them to their destination?

After hearing what the guards said, the shopkeeper sighed, "How can our Jinyang Pass compare with the royal capital? The royal capital is under the feet of the emperor, so naturally the resources are abundant and the prices are stable."

"Although our Jinyang Pass is not as good as the royal capital, it is much better than other places."

"Things are not cheap, but you can still buy them with money."

"The further south you go, the more desolate it is, especially south of Jianan Pass, where you can't buy food even if you have money."

Gongsun Yue waved his fan: "Shopkeeper, it seems that you know a lot about various places?"

The shopkeeper walked up to them proudly: "My eldest brother has been doing business for many years and knows a little about various places."

"Then, shopkeeper, do you know what's happening in Mubei County in Jianan Pass now?"

"Mubei County, if you want to go to Mubei County, then I advise you not to go."

Gongsun Yue paused slightly while waving his fan: "But what happened in Mubei County?"

"Not all."

The shopkeeper looked outside the door and locked the doors and windows.

"Do you know General Tang Shi Tang?"

"General Tang suffered from a serious illness and died in the capital. His Majesty sent General Sun Xing, who was originally guarding Tongmen Pass, to temporarily take over the Tang Family Army. The Tang Family Army is so loyal that it is impossible for them to be honestly controlled by Sun Xing, so they started to make trouble."

"Recently, many powerful generals of the Tang Family Army have been suppressed. Tongmen Pass and Jianan Pass have been in chaos. If nothing happens, it is better to wait for a while before going."

Hearing that the Tang army in Jianan Pass was being suppressed at this time, the Tang army couldn't wait to hurry up.

In the next few days, everyone just buried their heads and hurried on, and the atmosphere became more and more heavy.

After arriving at Xuyang Pass, Gan Fanren led them into Xuyang Pass.

"Ruer, do you still remember where your home is?"

Ruer nodded: "I remember."

"My family is a wealthy family in the local area. There is a stone lion at the door. My house has the largest gate."

Following the road pointed by Ruer, everyone quickly found Ruer's home.

Ruer's house is indeed very large and very impressive. Even Gongsun's family can't compare.

Gongsun Yue looked at Ruer's house and couldn't help shaking his head.

"These bandits are so stupid."

They left such a shaky money tree and saw those pounds of meat.

If he was a kidnapper, he would not think about eating meat, but first investigate his background and then extort a lot of money.

They took Ru'er and knocked on the door.

The servant who opened the door saw Ru'er and shouted excitedly.

"The young lady is back!"

"The young lady is back!"

Soon, many people ran out to greet her.

He hugged Ru'er and cried bitterly.
