Chapter 318 He is back

Tang Shi led the children to dig for half a month before they dug out a place that could allow the children to hide.

This was enough.

If there was really chaos in the city, it would only last for a few days at most.

As long as there were gaps underground for ventilation, it would be enough for the children to hide temporarily.

During the day, the children hid underground, and Tang Shi went out hunting.

The prey on the nearby mountains had been almost killed. The remaining ones were some very ferocious beasts.

Even Tang Shi, who was good at kung fu, had to be careful again and again.

At this time, a familiar pigeon suddenly flew over.

Tang Shi stretched out his hand and recognized the pigeon.

"Is this what I gave to the housekeeper?"

He opened the pigeon and saw the message inside. His face changed drastically.

No one knows his son better than his father. He learned all the methods of leading troops from his father.

If it was really his father who came, he would be able to easily crack Tang Jue's tricks.

Then the Tang family army would be in danger.

His mind was in a mess. He sat in the mountains for a long time without any idea.

If possible, he wanted to go to Jianan Pass to see what kind of life the people in Jianan Pass live. Maybe everything would become clear when he arrived in Jianan Pass.

He stood up, dusted off the dust on his body, and used all his money to buy a carriage.

The carriage is not expensive, but the horse is expensive.

The horse can not only pull the carriage, but also eat meat.

The horse was weak, but even so, there were still many people who wanted to buy it.

Back to the ruined temple, he let the children out of the cellar.

The children smiled foolishly at Tang Shi with their dusty faces.

"Sir, you are finally back?"

"We missed you so much."

Tang Shi handed the game

he had hunted to Zhuzi. "Zhuzi, pack these."

"Zhaodi, pack your luggage, we are going to Jianan Pass."

"Hey."

Zhaodi heard that they were leaving, and without asking why, she immediately agreed.

She took a few girls with her to pack their luggage.

In fact, there was not much luggage, just some small toys that Tang Shi gave them.

Animal bones, wood carvings, paper sewing, and small paper figures cut by Tang Shi himself.

They were not valuable things, but they were the best toys that the children had ever played with.

Tang Shi stood quietly by the side, waiting for the children to pack their things.

After a while, the game was packed, he roasted the game and shared it with the children, and then set off for Jianan Pass.

There are many people going to Jianan Pass.

There are so many people visible along the way.

"I heard that now as long as you go to Jianan Pass, you can have food to eat and a house to live in."

"We have to hurry. If we go quickly, maybe we can choose a better location."

"Hey, it's good to have a house to live in. What are you picky about? You are typical beggars who complain that the food is rotten."

Everyone has a smile on their face and is full of hope for the future life.

Tang Shi hasn't seen such an atmosphere for a long time.

At least he hasn't seen it during the time he traveled.

Perhaps because they know that the future will be better, the people who have always been numb are willing to lend a hand when they see Tang Shi, a grown man, with so many children.

Tang Shi received help from many people along the way.

Before reaching Jianan Pass, Tang Shi saw soldiers in armor distributing steamed bread and water on both sides of the road.

The armor they wore was very new, and the style of the armor was different from that of Dayun.

Obviously, they were rebels.

There were too many people in Jianan Pass who knew him, so he couldn't show up in Jianan Pass with his true appearance.

Tang Shi hid behind the children, took out a mask from his arms, and put it on his face.

Ji Bochang also came with the team to attack Jianan Pass this time. After taking down Jianan Pass, he took the initiative to take on the task of distributing food to the refugees.

This task seems simple, but it is actually very dangerous.

Not only do you have to distribute food and water, but you also have to pay attention to whether there are spies and Dayun's troops attacking.

If he really encounters spies or Dayun's troops, then his situation will be very dangerous.

But Ji Bochang still took on the task.

He preferred to be at the forefront rather than waiting in the back.

When he saw Tang Shi, his eyes stayed on Tang Shi for a moment.

This man had a very strong aura, totally different from ordinary people. He stood out among the people like a crane among chickens.

Especially with the mask on his face, it seemed as if he was intentionally hiding something.

Ji Bochang stopped Tang Shi's carriage.

"What's your name?"

"Tang Shi"

"Where are you from?"

"From Xu Yangguan."

"Are all these children yours?"

Tang Shi looked at the children and shook his head: "I picked up all these children."

"We were rescued by adults."

"Our family had no food, and my father couldn't bear to eat me, so he wanted to sell me to others for food. Fortunately, adults saved me."

"I am similar to Sister Zhaodi. I was also rescued by adults in this way."

"Don't look at the adult wearing a mask, but he is a good man, he is just a little shy."

"Not shy, not shy..." Zhuzi said in a clear and loud voice: "The adult must be too tired from the journey, and he is afraid that others will see his dirty body and delay his marriage."

Hearing so many children praising Tang Shi, Ji Bochang believed Tang Shi's identity.

He nodded and his voice became much softer: "It's getting dark, hurry into the city, don't wander around after entering the city, report to the government office, someone will arrange food, accommodation and work for you."

Tang Shi nodded and drove away. As soon as the car drove away, he heard Ji Bochang calling his name again.

"Tang Shi, wait a minute."

Was he recognized?

According to his previous identity, whether it was Dayun or the rebels, they should not be able to tolerate him, right?

If he was discovered, these rebels would definitely rush up.

What should the children do then?

Although he was confident that he could defeat these rebels, the children might be implicated by him.

In just a moment, Tang Shi's mind was full of thoughts.

He covered his mask and slowly stopped the carriage.

Ji Bochang, carrying a bamboo basket, caught up with him, panting.

"We are still some distance away from the city. The children must be hungry. Hurry up and share these with the children."

The bamboo basket was very new, as if it had just been woven, and it exuded a unique fragrance.

The steamed buns inside looked very white and soft.

It was the first time that Tang Shi had seen such white and soft steamed buns.

"Why are you standing there? Hurry up and share the steamed buns."

Ji Bochang picked up the steamed buns and shared them without saying anything.

"Don't underestimate this steamed bun. It's delicious. It's steamed by our wife and her sister-in-law."

"It's so fragrant and soft. We can't eat enough of it normally."

The steamed bun is very soft. You can pinch it to make a hole. Tang Shi took a bite and it was sweet and fragrant.
