"Who, who is coming back?" Xiong Yitan asked in shock.

"It's the people who chased us yesterday, Siguo."

"I expected it, but I don't have to run away this time. We have the person they want." Xiong Yitan grabbed Qian Xiaoxing's arm and grabbed it tightly, as if he was afraid that Qian Xiaoxing would disappear, so he pushed Qian Xiaoxing and walked forward.

It turned out that when Butler Lu saw that the bandits in the Heilong Cave had given up the cave and ran away, he divided the people into several teams to search the mountains. He only arranged a few secret whistles to stare at the Black Dragon Cave. In the morning, when the bandits came back, he went to find Butler Lu. When Butler Lu learned about it, he killed him immediately. The bandits did not dare to resist and retreated out of the cave and ran out.

Qian Xiaoxing was pushed forward and turned over a valley. In front of him, there was a sharp mountain. The mountain looked like a dragon head. The two big trees on the top of the mountain looked like two dragon horns. A black hole on the hillside happened to be where the dragon's mouth was.

Qian Xiaoxing saw someone moving faintly at the entrance of the cave, and walked forward with Xiong Yitan a little more, and saw a large group of people running over in front of him.

Seeing this, the other bandits asked worriedly: "A boss, should you run away?"

Xiong Yitan calmed down and said, "Why are you running? We have someone in our hands, and we are afraid that they will not succeed, so we will leave." Then he led everyone up.

Both sides approached and lined up face to face. Xiong Yitan held the knife on Qian Xiaoxing's neck, and grabbed Qian Xiaoxing's arm with the other hand.

When Qian Xiaoxing saw that the leader was Lu, he looked anxious and haggard when he saw that he looked much anxious. It seemed that he had been worried about his own affairs a lot, so he couldn't help but shout, "Brother Zhong, it's so nice to see you. I really miss you to death."

Seeing that Qian Xiaoxing was not injured and could still talk a little, Butler Lu felt relieved and said to Xiong Yitan: "Tell me, what are your conditions?"

Xiong Yitan looked at the current situation. There were only more than twenty people on his side, but forty or fifty people stood opposite him. So he replied, "Give him a thousand taels of silver and I will release him."

Butler Lu snorted coldly and said, "You need so much. You were also the people of the State of Si before. All of your own people are so cruel?"

Xiong Yitan pushed the knife to Qian Xiaoxing's neck and said, "You are so embarrassed to say that Si State, if the Emperor of Si State had not been incompetent and allowed Hu to occupy the city, would we have fallen to this point?"

For a moment, Butler Lu was speechless and thought for a while and asked, "9527, what's the price?" Butler Lu thought that Qian Xiaoxing had paid for it anyway, as long as Qian Xiaoxing agreed.

"One thousand is one thousand." Qian Xiaoxing said gritting his teeth, thinking that he was worth one thousand taels of silver. Is it too cheap? He actually had the urge to increase the price. Fang Ying said that his redemption fee was 10,000 taels of gold.

"Pay money with one hand and let people with the other!" Xiong Yitan said.

"Sure, wait." Butler Lu was preparing to use money to redeem people. He brought 2,000 taels of silver and scattered them so that everyone would take some of them. After a while, the people behind threw the silver they carried on the ground, and a pile of them was piled up in front of him.

"The money is put here, do you want to count?" Butler Lu said, pointing to Yinzi in front of him.

At this time, the third brother Wu Tong squeezed over and said to Xiong Yitan, "Boss, I analyze that if we release people now and they attack us, we will only have to escape, so we must let them go down the mountain and walk far away first."

Xiong Yitan nodded and said, "I expected it to happen. You guys go down the mountain first. When you all leave, I will let you go."

Butler Lu thought about it for a while. As for the current situation, he was always afraid of being a rude person. These bandits were just asking for money. After giving them money, they would not make things difficult for Qian Xiaoxing. So he waved to everyone behind him and said to Xiong Yitan: "Okay, I believe you, but if you don't keep your word, don't blame me for being ruthless. Even if you go to heaven and earth, don't think about running away."

When Xiong Yitan saw them walking away, he let go of Qian Xiaoxing and went to pick up the silver on the ground. He got so much silver at once, but some of them spent some money, so he bought some jars of good wine and some good girls.

"A boss," Qian Xiaoxing shouted: "I haven't seen my wife before?"

"You are not leaving yet, no, get out quickly." Xiong Yitan said impatiently.

The second child cut Qian Xiaoxing's rope with a dagger and drove Qian Xiaoxing down the mountain. Qian Xiaoxing ran and thought that it would be a bad idea if Jia Ling was caught by them, and he deliberately said that he would not be caught and used as the wife of the village.

Butler Lu was at the foot of the mountain. When he saw Qian Xiaoxing coming back, he grabbed Qian Xiaoxing and said excitedly: "Seventh brother, you are finally back safely, great."

Qian Xiaoxing also happily grabbed Butler Lu's hand and shook it, saying, "Brother Zhong, I think you will definitely come to save me. There was such a big scene, which is not bad."

"Haha, who made you rich by Seventh Brother? The princess said that the cost of dispatching hundreds of people to rescue you this time is all counted on your head. And the 1,000 taels of silver that you redeem is also paid out of your own pocket. Si Guo won't pay it for you." Butler Lu laughed.

"I haven't seen the lady for many days, and I miss you so much. These bandits actually cheated me up with a thousand taels. It's really hateful!" Qian Xiaoxing felt distressed when he heard that the money was paid by himself.

"Will we kill back and grab the money back?" Mr. Lu suggested.

"Forget it," Qian Xiaoxing thought that although these bandits were abominable, they were also good at treating him with wine and meat, and trapped him and Jia Ling. It was worth buying it for a thousand taels. He said to Butler Lu: "If you go back and fight and make your brothers hurt your hands and legs, the cost is still on my head. Let's go back."

When Mr. Lu saw that Qian Xiaoxing had no objection, he didn't say anything. This time, there was almost no fight. The bandits saw that there were many people on the other side, so no one was injured. So he summoned everyone to count the personnel and led everyone to Siguo.

After walking for a while, Butler Lu said to Qian Xiaoxing: "There is Panlong Pass ahead. So many of us pass the pass together, afraid that the soldiers guarding the city would suspect it, so we should just go in batches."

Butler Lu directed everyone to go in batches, while he and Qian Xiaoxing were at the end. After the front walked into the pass, the two walked towards Panlong Pass.

Qian Xiaoxing looked down at Panlong Pass and saw that the pass was more than 20 meters high. There were a row of flags on it. There were big trumpets floating on the flag in the middle. Officers and soldiers patrolled the city wall from time to time.

The two passed through the cave gate, and Butler Lu whispered to Qian Xiaoxing: "There are two roads in front and behind this Panlong Pass. The city walls are built along the mountain. There is a valley road in the middle, and there are two thousand soldiers of Hu. Originally, this pass belonged to our State of Si. Although it was a natural danger, after tens of thousands of people died in Hu, he was still attacked."

Qian Xiaoxing couldn't help but look around, thinking that every piece of land was stained with blood and tens of thousands of lonely souls wandering here, he felt very frightened and looked at the various parts of the valley and felt strange.

The two passed the second closing gate, but Qian Xiaoxing heard someone calling him: "Brother Qi, have you run out too?"

Qian Xiaoxing turned around and saw that Jia Ling, who had been worried for a long time, was running towards him from the side of the road.

"Jia Ling, why are you here?"

When Jia Ling saw Qian Xiaoxing, she was in a good mood and said happily: "When I saw you being knocked unconscious that day, I ran to the forest to hide. After seeing them arrest you, I came out but couldn't find you. I thought I would go to the relatives of Si Guo. I just got tired of walking and took a rest, and I saw you coming."

Qian Xiaoxing and Butler Lu talked about the matter with Jia Ling, and of course some of the clips were skipped, skipped.

Butler Lu looked at Jia Ling and asked, "What is your relative in Si State, what is the name?"

Jia Ling replied: "I am my cousin. I heard from my father that he is called Jia Sidao."

"Oh, that's it. I'll check it out for you when I go back." Butler Lu continued: "Not far ahead is the capital of the former Si State, called Guandu. I have a carriage in it. You can wait here for a while and I'll get it."

After Butler Lu left, Qian Xiaoxing grabbed Jia Ling's hand and said, "Dear Ling, you are so worried about me."

"Rogue!" Jia Ling shook Qian Xiaoxing's hand and whimpered: "You know how to bully me. I am helpless now. I don't know if I can find my cousin in Si State. Even if I find it, it's a question whether my cousin will take me in."

"What's there to worry about? I'll take you in. Well, you should be in the third room." Qian Xiaoxing smiled.

"You'll have your heart to die. If you are a maid, I'll consider it. If you want me to be your third room, unless I'm crazy." Jia Ling said.

Qian Xiaoxing was puzzled when he heard this and asked, "Why, why would you rather be a maid than marry me?"

"Because, I don't like you. I can be a maid for life, but I will never marry you." Jia Ling said seriously.

After hearing this, Qian Xiaoxing felt a little disappointed even though she suffered a direct rejection, but Qian Xiaoxing would not be discouraged. It seems that she needs to show more in the future and must take down Jia Ling. After all, she is the dream in her heart.

The two of them waited for a while, and then they saw Butler Lu drove over to Si Guo with Qian Xiaoxing and Jia Ling. Qian Xiaoxing was suddenly excited. After walking for so long and encountering so many things, Si Guo, I finally came.

"Here, this is the last city in our State of Si, Liufeng City." Butler Lu said before.

Qian Xiaoxing was staring at Jia Ling in the carriage. When he heard this, he came out and looked at it. He was still outside the city. There were broken bricks and tiles on the old city wall. There was no moat, and there was no soldier on the city wall.

When the car arrived in front of the city gate, there were two dilapidated city gates. One of the door shafts had been broken and was lying on the side. Qian Xiaoxing shook his head when he saw it. After seeing so many cities, he had never seen such a broken city wall or such a dilapidated city gate.

The carriage entered the city, and Qian Xiaoxing saw dilapidated houses everywhere, with only a few people walking on the street, each of whom was pale and thin and thin.

After a while, the carriage came to a large yard and stopped. Butler Lu said that Qian Xiaoxing invited Jia Ling out and got off the carriage together.

Seeing Qian Xiaoxing's confusion, Butler Lu looked at the yard and explained: "The imperial city is no longer able to build it, so he can only find a large yard to be the palace. It's getting late, so go in and have supper."

Butler Lu walked into the door, Qian Xiaoxing and Jia Ling followed in, and Qian Xiaoxing saw that there was no guard at the gate, and the place where the emperor lived was really open.

When he arrived at the main hall, Qian Xiaoxing looked around. The decoration inside the house was simple, and it was not as good as the Qian Mansion in Shandu.

Soon after, Fang Ying walked out and saw Qian Xiaoxing, excitedly grabbed Qian Xiaoxing's hand and said, "You are back. You can't kick you every day, so I'm really not used to it."

Qian Xiaoxing didn't see Fang Ying for a few days and missed her very much. Although Fang Ying said this, her eyes also showed joy. I thought she had been worried about herself for a long time.

"Xiao Cui, Xiao Cui, your husband is back!" Qian Xiaoxing didn't see Lan Xiao Cui, and shouted loudly to the inner room.

"9527, stop calling." Fang Ying stopped.

"Why? What about Xiao Cui?" Qian Xiaoxing wondered if Xiao Cui was arranged by Fang Ying to do something.

Fang Ying sighed and said, "I tell you, don't be excited."
