Chapter 168 (1/2)
Feiyun state.
Kangyun county.
Taojiazhuang.
”Has everything been packed?”
Tao Yunchuan limped in from outside and asked Xu Lian inside.
”Soon.”
Xu Lian answered and continued to pack her family's things.
Compared with a year ago, Xu Lian was haggard at this time, and her eyes had no previous brilliance.
Looking at his wife, Tao Yunchuan sighed and sat directly at the door, looking at the chirping chickens in the yard with a tired look in his eyes.
They're moving.
More precisely, the whole taojiazhuang is moving away.
A year ago, near Kangyun County, Qiuyun county and Dingyun County, a war broke out between the black armour guard in Feiyun Prefecture and the shadow blood sect in liewu Prefecture.
The battle ended with the victory of the black armour.
However, despite the victory at that time, the friction between Feiyun state and fierce fog state did not end.
Not only in the southeast of Feiyun state, but also at the junction of Feiyun state and liewu state, the war is burning, and the friction between the two sides is becoming more and more intense.
In order to ease the internal contradictions in liewu Prefecture, the major families in liewu Prefecture joined forces and began to put pressure on yuanshengzong of Feiyun prefecture to infiltrate into Feiyun Prefecture.
Of course yuanshengzong did not give in, so the war at the junction of the two states became more and more frequent and intense.
After the victory of the war a year ago, the black armour guards stationed reinforcements and expanded their troops again, taking back the previously lost Qiuyun county and Dingyun county.
But two months ago, the shadow blood faction increased its troops here again and robbed Qiuyun county and Dingyun county again.
Moreover, the enemy's coming is fierce, and its number and combat effectiveness have been greatly improved.
After retaking the two counties, they began to move towards Kangyun county.
Facing the enemy whose strength is several times that of the black armour garrison, the new commander of the black armour garrison in Kangyun County issued an order to give up Kangyun county.
After knowing that heijiawei gave up Kangyun County, taojiazhuang finally decided to evacuate with all the people of the village.
Today, three villages in Kangyun county have been completely entangled with black armour guards.
If the enemy of the shadow blood sect successfully seizes Kangyun County, it is bound to kill the three Zhuang people who have become one with the black armour guard.
In order to avoid possible tragedies, taojiazhuang people can only leave their hometown and go abroad.
Today, there is still one day to move the whole taojiazhuang.
Before dawn tomorrow, taojiazhuang will gather all the villagers to move together.
”Dad, are we leaving tomorrow?”
Tao Tao in broken flower clothes came over and asked Tao Yunchuan carefully.
Tao Tao is now almost six years old, taller than a year ago, and his hair has grown.
”Yes, I'll leave tomorrow.”
Tao Yunchuan looked at his daughter and nodded.
Facing Tao Yunchuan's answer, Tao Tao paused, grabbed his clothes and asked tentatively, ”are we not waiting for my uncle?”
Tao Yunchuan was silent when asked.
He opened his mouth and said nothing at last.
Not only Tao Yunchuan, but also Xu Lian, who packed things in the house, heard Tao Tao's words.
The wordy voice when packing things also stopped.
Tao Yunchuan and Xu Lian still remember the scene when heijiawei came home.
At that time, Xu Ning had just left home for a few days and had gone to yuanshengzong, Yunying city.
But one night, black armour guards suddenly visited. Those black armour guards told them that Xu Ning and his entourage disappeared together.
Where they disappeared, others were killed.
After learning the news, Xu Lian fainted on the spot.
She has always cared for and cherished her brother, who has high hopes. Unexpectedly, she lost her trace on the way to her future. She doesn't know whether she will live or die.
Thinking of what her brother had done for the family and the warm pictures of the family in the past, Xu Lian didn't suffer a blow. She was seriously ill and didn't recover until a few months.
After that, Xu Lian looked at the door of taojiazhuang for a long time every day, hoping that Xu Ning would return home in her eyes.
However, it has been a year since Xu Ning disappeared.
His figure never entered Xu Lian's vision again.
”Your uncle...”
Tao Yunchuan paused for a long time and finally opened his mouth with difficulty: ”he will find us.”
”But my uncle, he doesn't know where we're going...”
Tao Tao asked, frowning away and pursing his mouth with a lost look.
Tao Yunchuan didn't know how to respond to Tao Tao.
”Sister Lian, brother-in-law!”
Just then, a voice came out of the door.
Guo ye walked into the hospital from the door.
”Are you all ready? Is there anything I can do for you?”
Guo ye went to Tao Yunchuan.
Guo ye also knew about Xu Ning's disappearance at the first time.
Guo Ye felt very sad about his best friend's experience.
In the days when Xu Ning disappeared, Guo Ye assumed Xu Ning's responsibility as a younger brother.
He will take the initiative to come home and help Xu Lian and Tao Yunchuan do some chores.
Although Xu Ning left enough money and food for his family, Guo ye still sent some food, clothes and even tonics from time to time to take good care of Xu Ning's family.
”Hurry up.”
Xu Lian came out of the house and helped Tao Yunchuan up who was sitting on the ground.
”Just be busy with your family. Don't worry about us.”
For Guo Ye's daily help, Xu Lian and Tao Yunchuan also saw it in their eyes and kept it in their hearts.
”Sister Lian, brother-in-law.”
Seeing that there was nothing to help, Guo Ye continued, ”tomorrow morning, I will bring a donkey cart and you will put your things on the donkey cart. On the way to move, we can count as a care.”
Guo Ye lowered his voice: ”although there are family guards on the way to move, there will be horse bandits. It's a guarantee to follow my uncle.”
”Thank you, Guo Ye.”
Xu Lian and Tao Yunchuan also expressed their gratitude.
