However, due to excessive blood loss, Li Wenxiu's face was still a little pale. Chu Zheng asked, "How is the injury?"

"It's much better. The doctor said he can walk in three days."

It's probably going to take another ten days and a half months to drive her away.

Chu Zheng asked again: "Miss Li, how did you come to Suizhou? Judging from your appearance, it seems that you came from outside the Great Wall?"

Li Wenxiu has little experience in the world, and she also heard a lot of chivalrous deeds about the young hero Chu in front of her from the two little maids. She thought he should be a good person. She said frankly: "I have been wandering with my parents since I was a child. Later, my parents were gone. I was raised by a Han herder. After that... Grandpa Ji was gone, I decided to go back to Jiangnan to see where I was born." When she spoke, she looked sad.

Chu Zheng probably had a lot of things she hadn't said, but he didn't want to ask questions, and he didn't want to make in-depth friends anyway.

Just find out her destination.

Chu Zheng advised: "Miss Li, it's still a thousand miles away from here to Jiangnan, and Suizhou is not peaceful. Otherwise, you might as well go back to the outer wall first. It's not too late to go to Jiangnan after Suizhou settles down."

Li Wenxiu shook her head and said, "I will not go back to the frontier."

When Chu Zheng heard her tone firm, he stopped persuading him and planned to let her leave when her injury healed, and he would go wherever she loves.

"By the way, I heard that there was a little sister taking care of me last night, and I didn't know where I went. I haven't thanked her yet."

Dongfang Bai? That little girl automatically returns to the book to sleep until the summoning time limit.

Chu Zheng found a reason to fool him, and Li Wenxiu asked again what happened to the women she saved.

Chu Zheng observed his words and knew that she was indeed concerned about the women who had suffered tragic fate from the bottom of her heart, and that her disgust for her disappeared.

Chu Zheng thought about it and decided to tell him frankly.

Li Wenxiu was stunned for a while and suddenly burst into tears.

"Why are there always more evil than good in the world? Why did life in a good way suddenly disappear?"

She seemed to be feeling, and the more she cried, the more she became sad, and tears flowed.

Chu Zheng sighed lightly: "Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, there are revenge. From individuals and sects to countries and nations, this is the case. Only when the damage caused by the struggle exceeds the benefits can there be short-term peace."

Li Wenxiu lowered her head and said nothing, as if she was thinking about Chu Zheng's words.

Chu Zheng estimated that Guo Xiang had almost done it, so he was about to say goodbye. Suddenly, a gang member knocked on the door and said, "Master Chu, Master Kou is back, and said that if you have time, go to the front to discuss matters."

...

The first floor of the inn has been set up as a conference hall, and all unrelated people have retreated outside.

Kou Zhongfeng was exhausted and said as soon as he saw Chu Zheng, "Brother Chu, the situation has changed. Why don't you take Miss Guo and Miss Li to leave Liangdu first?"

Chu Zheng smiled bitterly. He really wanted to leave. The problem was that he knew Guo Xiang's current situation very well. Guo Xiang was extremely weak and was supported by the true energy he inputted from time to time. He would never be exhausted. So no matter whether he was happy or not, he could only help Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling to guard Liangdu, which was also the place to keep Guo Xiang's body in peace.

"Is Yu Wengu coming?"

Kou Zhong said in surprise: "Do you know everything?"

Chu Zheng simply pulled out a stool and sat down: "This story is known to everyone in the city, how could he not know? How many soldiers and horses have come?"

"Yu Wenhe personally brought 20,000 troops to fight, using Yuwen Zhihe and Yuwen Wudi as deputy commanders, including 5,000 well-trained elite soldiers, and the rest were recruited shortly. Damn, there are only a few dozen people here, and the current situation is not bad, but extremely bad!"

Chu Zheng comforted, "You are lucky. You have more than 2,000 more subordinates this morning. People from all over Pengliang will come to join you."

Kou Zhong was happy at first, but soon sighed: "It's useless. They are all mobs. They were broken up before they could not even fight the horse thieves. How could they be the opponents of Yu Wen and those elite soldiers in a hundred battles?" He smiled bitterly and said: "To be honest, now those who can really fight with Yu Wen and the elite soldiers are probably the only three suckers, Chu, Xiaoling and me, who are the big fools."

"How long will Yu Wenji's people arrive?"

"As soon as tomorrow, the next day after tomorrow, it will definitely be there."

Chu Zheng knew nothing about the army and could only lead the situation to the most familiar battles in the martial arts world. He suggested: "Under this situation, we will definitely not be able to defend the city. Otherwise, we should use the strategy of capturing the thief first to capture the king, and ambush halfway out of the city and kill Yu Wenji, what if?"

Kou Zhong shook his head and said, "It's hard, there's almost no possibility of success. Yu Wenhe is not much weaker than us. Moreover, if we want to kill him, we have to break into thousands of elite soldiers first. Even if we can think of a way to disguise ourselves and make trouble, it's impossible to get close to Yu Wen and Hua, because according to the inquiry, Yu Wenhe is also guarding against us for this move. He has already issued an order. Except for his closest generals and dozens of skilled guards, the rest of them cannot enter his range within twenty feet, otherwise they will be shown as an assassin to kill him on the spot."

At this moment, Zhu Quan came to report: "Master Kou, Master Chu, our third leader came with a man named Xuan Yong, and asked to see you."

Kou Zhong was overjoyed and hurriedly let them in.

Ren Meimei and Xuan Yong are both old acquaintances of Kou Zhong. He heard that he had gathered here publicly and brought his men to surrender.

Ren Meimei was the third leader of Peng Lianghui. Not only did she have someone in her hands, but she also had a large amount of food buried near Liangdu. Xuan Yong himself was skilled in defending the city and commanding the army, and had two thousand well-trained and experienced generals.

With the help of these two people, Kou Zhong and Chu Zheng finally breathed a sigh of relief and saw hope of defending the city. However, in order to strengthen the city defense, Kou Zhong and Chu Zheng inspected the surroundings separately and mobilized the people to participate in defending the city.

Chu Zheng was not used to doing such things, but in order to defend Liangdu, he had to bite the bullet and go. Fortunately, his fame and influence were much greater than he knew. When he heard that he wanted to call for the city to defend, martial arts figures and brave men in the nearby area responded one after another, and forced two thousand people to help build the city defense facilities within half a day.

Time passed in a hurry. Not long after noon, Xu Ziling finally came back with the doctor who was named Shi Qijian.

Xu Ziling did what he said. Shi Qiqizhi had a very strange temper and refused to go far. Xu Ziling simply tied him up and killed him several times along the way. At this time, his body was covered in dust and blood.

Chu Zheng didn't care about the city defense anymore, so he asked Zhu Quan, who had been following him, to help continue his work, while he and Xu Ziling took Shi Qiying to treat Guo Xiang.
