Chapter 37: Vegetable gnocchi soup

The dirty, foul-smelling surface of the water rippled in circles, and the slimy unknown booty on top fell down with a snap.

Zero Er moved his ears, stopped, and stuck to the dirty and slippery stone wall, and after a few breaths, "Oh no, they're catching up." ”

"It's still too late, don't delay. ”

The two of them increased their speed and hurried away.

The sun was scorching, and under this dazzling light, Gongsun Jing was full of pride, and his sharp eyes glanced at the shopkeeper who was swelled and paralyzed on the ground.

The shopkeeper's face trembled slightly, and he didn't dare to look at this young man.

"The Yin Dynasty is dead!" Gongsun Jing raised his foot and picked up the shopkeeper's chin and mocked, "This is the prince you are loyal to, who disregarded the lives of the people of the whole town and fled from the stinky ditch himself." ”

Prince?

The shopkeeper's eyes were dilated for a moment, and he suddenly understood that his real owner was the royal family!

No wonder, no wonder the county government pulls more than a dozen "suspect accomplices" to the vegetable market every day to behead them, where are these suspect accomplices, they are clearly innocent people, in order to force the prince to come out and save them!

"Phew!" The shopkeeper was angry in his heart, staring at that face and eager to eat it alive, and spit a mouthful of blood on Gongsun Jing's shoes, "You despicable villain, what kind of face do you have to talk about the prince!"

"What a minion. Gongsun Jing kicked him away in disgust and ordered him left and right, "Chop him up and feed him to the dogs." ”

The closer you get to the outlet, the deeper the water becomes, and you almost swim through.

Recently, there has been little rain, and half of the outlet is not in the river, and half is exposed on the bank wall.

It was 10 o'clock in the evening when they entered the cave, and it was 10 p.m. when they saw the day, and it was dark everywhere, and the fishing boats and cargo boats on the river had been lit up.

Pick up the aquatic weeds and go ashore, and sneak into the willow forest on the shore under the cover of trees.

"Your Highness, you wait for me here, I'll go get a boat. ”

"Yes. ”

Zhan Changfeng opened the waterproof cowhide package and changed into clean clothes, she didn't have many things with her, a sword, a hidden cloud stream arrow, and an imperial flower, these things were previously searched by Jiang Wei, and then she took advantage of the chaos to take them back.

After a while, Zero Er came back, "They haven't caught up here yet, we have to move quickly, and we will be safe on the water." ”

"Lead the way. ”

At this hour, the porters had already unloaded their goods and returned to rest, and the fishermen had returned home, and there were only a few scattered people on the dock, which was very deserted.

Zhan Changfeng followed Zero Er briskly towards a cargo ship, and suddenly, she looked at the woman standing on the side of the road.

Footsteps paused.

"Your Highness, what's wrong with you, hurry up!" At this time, Zero Er couldn't help but be anxious, and those people were about to chase after him.

Zhan Changfeng's heart beat faster, as if something was pulling her in the dark, making her unable to leave simply.

She glanced at the cargo ship anchored in the distance, and with a twist of her footsteps, she walked toward the woman.

The woman added water to the pot with a sad face, and saw Zhan Changfeng standing in front of the stall, "Come and taste it, it's delicious and quenches your hunger!"

"What kind of soup are you?"

The woman smiled flatteringly at the adults behind the child, and then replied, "Vegetable gnocchi soup, the vegetable is shepherd's cabbage, and the gnocchi is white gnocchi, and soy sauce, star anise, and fennel are added to it, you smell it, it is not fresh, it is not fragrant, as long as it costs five cents a bowl, to ensure that the tube is full, do you want two bowls?"

The basin is a big pot, the soup is filled with soy sauce, the color is dull, the vegetable leaves are floating in the soup, the woman takes a colander and stirs it, and the baby's fist-sized gnocchi rises from the bottom of the pot, and it rises and falls.

The surface of the gnocchi is pitted, and it is soaked in soy sauce, and it looks really bad.

Zhan Changfeng felt a little disgusting inexplicably, like blood-stained human heads.

"Your Highness, the ship is about to leave, let's go quickly, if you are hungry, eat on board!"

Zhan Changfeng took a step back, she wanted to leave here as soon as possible and go to Hengzhou to arrange things, those people's power didn't know how big it was, and it was impossible to say that the whole world was played by them in applause, so it was ridiculous that the princes were fighting.

But Zhan Changfeng couldn't take the second step, she looked at the woman fixedly, and the voice in her ears dissipated, "Why are you sad?"

"Ouch," the woman twisted her eyebrows, patted her thighs a few times, and her wrinkled yellow face suddenly became gloomy, "It's not my mouth, the county lord has sealed the town, and I can't get out of it!"

"When the ban is lifted, it will naturally come out, and you can rest assured. ”

"Your Highness!" Zero Er's face twisted, "Your Highness, we really should go!"

"Where is it that you say so lightly," the woman wiped away her tears, "I heard the guards say that the county government arrests people everywhere, and every day pulls a dozen or so people to the entrance of the vegetable market to cut off their heads, and my family looks fierce again, what should I do if I am caught by mistake!"

Zhan Changfeng was stunned when he heard this, and then looked at Ling Er awe-inspiringly, "Why didn't you tell me." ”

“... Your Highness, you are a golden body, please focus on the overall situation. "As long as the prince does not die, the Yi family does not die, what about sacrificing the lives of the people.

Zero Er didn't retreat, looking directly at her, but saw that the black eyes seemed to sink into the abyss, becoming deeper and colder, arousing the unknown trembling in his heart.

"What else are you hiding?"

Zero Er couldn't help but grit his teeth, he knew that this question might not be meaningless but just oppress his psychological defense, or maybe His Highness had sensed something waiting for him to confess, he could choose to keep his mouth shut and deny it, but in the face of those eyes, his mouth was already open.

He couldn't resist, "... After the surprise attack on Qishan, some people were captured, including Li Yunguan Pine Stone, and Wong Tai Sin, who had time to escape in the future, they were nailed to a wooden donkey at the entrance of the vegetable market every day, and they were killed for a long time, and so far they have been slashed 120 times... Not dead. ”

The last two words seem to be squeezed out of the teeth, and being tortured like this, not dying is the greatest hell.

Zhan Changfeng was silent for a while, and actually laughed.

Zero Er was afraid that she would be hit too hard, so he knelt down in sorrow, "Your Highness, if you go to Hengzhou, he will be able to make a comeback one day and avenge them." ”

Zhan Changfeng ignored it, and asked the frightened woman, "Relatives and friends are being bullied, you can turn a blind eye and run away!"

"Huh?!" the woman waved her hand in a panic, "I can't." ”

"Innocent people died tragically because of you, you will sit idly by and take refuge for yourself!"

"No!"

"When I heard this, all the women in the country knew how to choose. ”

"But you're not like them!"

"I'm different. Zhan Changfeng heard the horses' hooves stacked, and the wind blowing loudly puffed up the sails, "I am first an enlightened creature among all living beings, and then the prince of the Yin Dynasty." ”

"The crown prince of the Yin Dynasty can use the people of the world as a pawn for a goal, even if he is burdened with countless blood debts, he is not afraid, but I can't prevaricate the current retreat with future revenge. ”

Zhan Changfeng drew his sword, and the body of the sword reflected her sharp eyebrows and eyes, and the pursuers who were killing on horseback.

This is the real her, just to be happy, only to be strong and strong, no matter how powerful the opponent is, just cut it with a sword.

She, either march forward in the blood of thorns until destruction, or conquer the world!
