The evening breeze blows, and the green trees sway by the road.

Shouling City.

Outside the city gate, in the corner of the city wall, there were many refugees and refugees crowding. It seemed that they had been here for a long time.

Shouling City is now closed, and it was allowed to go out a while ago but it was not allowed to enter. Now it is becoming more and more difficult to find out, so there are naturally more crowded people outside the city.

Gu Xiang and others walked along the way, and the refugees around them dodged, and their eyes were dodging.

It is probably because the old dog is terrifying. Perhaps Xiao Ze's bright and luxurious mink coat is quite scary.

Gu Xiang got off the car and stayed and stopped. Shouling County was just an ordinary remote small county, but its history was long. Under the care of autumn and sunset, the mottled ancient times exuded the smell of old paper piles.

Her eyes fell on the patterns and words carved on the city walls, including several small poems, such as "Sighing with a sword in the sky, climbing into the ancient city in a vast way". Some of them have poor handwriting, while others have good calligraphy skills.

She smiled without feeling it, and suddenly she felt a very special sense of familiarity, and she became helpless.

Some things are indeed the same in ancient and modern times. For example, when tourists arrive at tourist attractions, they like to engrave words.

This phenomenon was rare when Gu Xiang was reborn, but it still exists.

If the words in the title are so beautiful that they may become a scene in this ancient city in the future, but if a person who writes the word "Dog Crawling" must look at it, it will be really unpleasant.

Gu Xiang was thinking about that time, a young boy of fourteen or fifteen years old suddenly appeared behind him. He was wearing a slightly larger hat with a long brim, clean clothes, and good materials. He was a little dissuasive and his eyes looked pretty.

"Miss, do you two want to enter the city?"

Gu Xiang turned around and nodded: "Yes."

"I have a way."

The boy looked around secretly, stretched out his hand and gestured, "One person only costs fifty cents, so you can go in safely. If you go in and out for eighty cents, what do you think?"

Gu Xiang was suddenly surprised: "I heard that Shouling was recently closed down and the investigation was very strict?"

After all, the rioters are all "armed at the city". Recently, all spies are in a crazy manner. The magistrate in the county government is not there. Zhou County Wei knows military better than the magistrate. He has captured dozens of spies for several days and has put in a lot of effort in security and defense.

The young man smiled and said, "No matter how strict the management is, I am a native native. There are always some small roads that the government doesn't know about, so I can come and go out... Little lady, I'm willing to come over to say these things to you when you look good. Look, so many people who want to enter the city, who should I pay attention to?"

Gu Xiang blinked and was about to refuse, but his eyes paused slightly when he saw the young boy turning back and waved and said with a smile: "Brother Feng Liu, go to Miss Sun again? You are really, Miss Sun said several times that she wanted to redeem herself and go to you, why are you still reserved?"

A young man in yamen runner's uniform immediately showed a little embarrassed on his face and waved his hands repeatedly: "Let's go first, let's go first."

While speaking, he trotted against the wall, wandering further and further away.

"Ne, that's Brother Feng Liu. He works at the city gate. He has a close relationship with me. It's a trivial matter to secretly open a city gate for us at night."

The young man had beautiful eyebrows and gentle eyes, "My name is Su San, why don't you go and inquire about it? I, Su San, have a little fame in Shouling. How about it? Do you want to come with me?"

Gu Xiang was surprised. Unexpectedly, the yamen runners in Shouling County also colluded with outsiders to earn money from passers-by. I wonder if Zhou County Wei and others knew about it?

She suddenly felt a little alert.

The plot of the original book does not mention the end of Shouling, but the Yongyi Army rebelled and ended up with a good end. Maybe something happened to Shouling?

Gu Xiang has been very concerned about these safety issues recently. If someone enters the county town through these loopholes and makes trouble for the wind and rain, it may really threaten the safety of the entire county town.

The only county town in the village is Shouling. If a war starts, not to mention the long time, even if it only takes a few months, the village will definitely be harmed by disasters.

With a flash of thought, Gu Xiang changed his mind and smiled and said, "It's really safe?"

Su San patted his chest and promised: "But you have to give the money first. You can go and inquire. I, Su San, are the rules like this."

Gu Xiang then barked the old dog and took out the money to the child: "The four of us, each of us, 80 cents, you can send us safely and then send us out, how about it?"

"Okay, don't worry, I guarantee that the arrangements will be made for you."

Su San collected the money, lowered his voice, and said mysteriously: "Just tonight, the second day of the day, you are still here. Come quietly, don't disturb others."

The old dog's eyelids trembled slightly.

Wang Ermu opened his mouth, but the old dog grabbed it and immediately shut his mouth honestly.

Xiao Ze scratched his head, looked left and right, and didn't say anything. At this time, he remembered one thing firmly. The purpose of following him was to find his father. Before he found his father and was sure that his father was safe, Miss Gu was his Bodhisattva, and he just obeyed his orders.

Gu Xiang smiled and replied, thinking about observing whether the county seat was fully alert, so he didn't go into the city and walked around for a few times.

Looking through the way, I found that Shouling County was in short supply of food.

Every day, the county government releases a batch of cheap grain, but the quantity is very limited.

Those grain shops must also release affordable grain according to regulations, but it is very difficult to buy them.

Most of the refugees have pale faces and thin skin, especially the elderly and children. They only rely on the county officials who are in charge of the county government to give each person two bowls of thin porridge every day, which can count rice grains of porridge, and a vegetable wreath that can barely survive.

Gu Xiang knew it was still small in Shouling County, and it was surrounded by mountainous areas, so the transportation was inconvenient. Otherwise, even this little porridge might attract a large number of refugees to gather.

Every time there is a disaster or a deserted year, the biggest headache for governments in various places is the resettlement of victims. Officials from any route are unwilling to let refugees run to their territory.

Magistrate Wang and Zhou Wei of Shouling County were both responsible and good officials. Although refugees were not allowed to enter the city, they were still concerned about their survival issues.

Now it seems that these refugees are not even in the juncture of life and death, so there should not be too much trouble.

Gu Xiang also breathed a sigh of relief.

In such an environment, Gu Xiang wanted delicious food and did not dare to give porridge for a while. No matter how abundant the dry food she brought, she did not have enough people to grab it. She could not see her mind, and sat in the carriage and ate some tasteless snacks and dry food. After a nap, she put on her clothes and took the old dog, Xiao Ze, and led Wang Ermu to the edge of the city quietly.

The cold wind rustled, and Gu Xiang's hair was blown a little messy.

First class, second class, third class.

I waited until the third update.

Gu Xiang: "..."

Lao Gou and Xiao looked solemnly, looking at their noses and their hearts, and no one felt that there was any problem with waiting for so long.

Gu Xiang sighed: "Let's go back."
