The girl and her sister put on a sackcloth coat that they had just borrowed from the village and were taken out of the thatched hut.

There is a regular two-story wooden building in the middle of the village. The girl and her sister were temporarily placed in the guest room on the second floor. Yang Yun had a simple communication with the girl.

Yang Yun knew that the person who died was the girl's grandmother and had been dead for nearly a month.

When my grandmother was alive, she planted sorghum, picked wild fruits and vegetables, and went to the streams at the foot of the mountain to catch fish and shrimps, trying to make a bite of food for the family of three. Unfortunately, she was old and weak, and her body became increasingly inconvenient. When she went up the mountain to pick wild fruits two months ago, she slid down from the mountain and broke her legs. She struggled to return home and had a high fever that night.

He had no money to invite the doctor to see a doctor, and his injuries were dragged down. In order to save some food for the two sisters, his grandmother finally starved to death. Later, as the family ran out of sorghum rice, the girl took on the heavy responsibility of finding food for herself and her sister, and her superpower also appeared at that time.

"... Daddy was taken away by a man in armor four years ago. A year later, someone came to report that he was dead and only paid 100 cents to his family... Mother died when my sister was born. At that time, I was still young. I watched my grandmother and dad bury my mother in the pit on the back mountain and buried her mother for a long time..."

When the girl talked about these pasts, she looked very calm, as if these sad pasts were nothing. She had no time to worry about her life experience, and her only thought was to live.

Yang Yun took out the Hu cakes that had been prepared long ago and gave them to the girl and her sister for consumption.

After the two girls finished eating, Yang Yun briefly checked his sister's condition and said to the girl: "Your sister should be fine, she is just hungry, and she can recover after only a period of recuperation... Are you willing to go with me?"

The girl nodded silently.

The old man who had been serving in the distance hurried over and said, "This immortal, if you really lack people around you, why not choose a few girls in the village to command me?"

The old man was knowledgeable and learned from the young men on duty that the young man showed the magical powers of the young man in front of him. He also checked the iron birch door that had almost turned into residue with his own eyes. He was very awe of Yang Yun and was very optimistic about his future, so he did not hesitate to ask Yang Yun to take away more girls from the village.

County Magistrate Hu flattered his mouth and rolled his eyes and said, "It is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the immortal to choose Taoist boys. Do you think any cat and dog have such a fortune? These two girls are the immortals' masters who predicted the art of prophecy and divination, and used the heavenly eyes to find out that it is already a great fortune for your village. Do you want to ask for more?"

Yang Yun was not as rude as County Magistrate Hu. He walked over and said to the old man with a kind look: "This old gentleman, I really feel sorry for the people who took your tribe. I will leave some things for you, which will be considered as compensation."

Yang Yun originally wanted to take out a ingot of silver, but when he thought that this thing might cause trouble for the village, he gave up the idea and left behind hundreds of coins, a piece of silk cloth and more than ten kilograms of dry food.

The old man was very satisfied with Yang Yun's gift and his eyes were shining.

County Magistrate Hu reminded Yang Yun: "Real person, these things can be exchanged for more than ten girls on the market... This remote girl is not worth anything at all."

Yang Yun explained: "I just completed the instructions of my family teacher... I appreciated the kindness of County Magistrate Hu. I will not treat him badly if I bothered County Magistrate Hu for a trip this time."

After saying that, he stuffed the prepared silver ingots to County Magistrate Hu.

County Wei Hu was immediately energetic, and the fatigue he had experienced before was almost worth mentioning at this time. He also became more and more motivated to do things.

...

...

After burying the girl's grandmother, the group left the village that night.

Yang Yun doesn't want to spend the night in the village.

In this strange place, it is difficult to guarantee that the people in the village will not think about their property and have bad intentions. Any negligence may lead to tragedy...

Of course, it was nothing for Yang Yun, who had superpowers, but once he turned against him, it would be a lasting ending. It was inappropriate for County Magistrate Hu and the soldiers he brought to him to suffer casualties. It was not a scene he wanted to see that the people in the village were slaughtered. So leaving early is the best choice.

After leaving the village, the group did not find a place to camp, but crossed the canyon overnight, and after leaving the mountain, they rushed to Mianzhu County. The girl's sister was too young after all, and Yang Yun carried it on her back. The little girl was thin and only about twenty pounds. This weight was not considered strength for him at all.

At dawn, the group finally arrived at Mianzhu County.

In the inn, Yang Yun had first seen the magistrate of Mianzhu who came to greet him after hearing the news, and gave him a silver ingot. Everyone was happy before returning to the room to visit the girl and her sister.

The girl was guarding the bed, looking at Hu's sleeping sister, and when she looked back at Yang Yun, her eyes were full of confusion.

"You are twelve years old this year, older than Anlun... Anlun is another girl who knows magic. This time I didn't bring her with me, and you will see her when you look back." Yang Yun said in a gentle tone.

The girl nodded.

Yang Yun said again: "We rest until the afternoon in this county town. After we recover a little, we have to set off and walk dozens of miles... But relax, there will be a carriage carrying us, and we can rest when we arrive on the car... From then on, I will be responsible for your food, clothing, housing and transportation. Can you?"

The girl's eyes were full of ignorance.

Yang Yun couldn't help but think that An Lun was so confused when he heard his arrangements for the first time, because these were his life plans and did not belong to these innocent and flawless girls.

"If you say you don't have a name, then I will give you one, and your name will be Yarou in the future." Yang Yun said, "As for your sister, she is named Yaqing, and she said to the public that she was the Taoist boy I received, responsible for taking care of my daily life... If you make money in the future, I will buy you houses and land, so that you can live a worry-free life."

The girl's eyes suddenly became bright, and her name meant a new life and was full of hope for the future.

As for the houses and land that ordinary people covet, it has no meaning to her.

...

...

Yang Yun and his party returned to Shifang County that night.

County Magistrate Su personally brought people out of the city to greet him. In addition to congratulating Yang Yun on finding the person he was looking for, he also brought Yang Yun a message.

"...Among the six southwest edicts, five of them were instigated by the Tubo people to rebel against the court, attack our city, and kill our people. The general of Jie has submitted a report to the emperor to send troops to quell the rebellion. I hope that this time I can take the talisman to Yizhou as soon as possible so that I can send it to the front line soldiers as soon as possible."

Yang Yun had some knowledge of the small countries around the Tang Dynasty.

The largest local forces in the southern part of Jiannan Road are the Mengshizhao, Yuexiong, Langqiong, Zhuihuang, Mengshezhao, Mengshezhao, and Mengshezhao. Mengshezhao is located in the southernmost part and is also called Nanzhao.

Except for Nanzhao who had close ties with the Tang Dynasty, the other five Zhaos were swaying back and forth between Tubo and the Tang Dynasty, which depends on who had greater influence in the southern part of Jiannan Road.

Yang Yun thought to himself: "Nanzhao has not yet established a country. However, according to historical records, Nanzhao should have unified the Six Zhas in the 26th year of Kaiyuan. Now internal disputes within the Six Zhas have arisen."

This made him feel a little worried: "No wonder Wang Yu, the governor of Jiannan, attached so much importance to gunpowder. He had great ambitions and wanted to take this opportunity to quell the disputes between the southwest tribes and establish his prestige in the court in one fell swoop."

County Magistrate Su said: "The envoy sent by Jishu to urge him to arrive in the county town yesterday. You know this person, Mr. Gongsun, who had been here before. You two have some grudges in the past. He learned that you were not leaving for the real person and said that he wanted to report to Jishuhu and deal with the real person's delay in the military plane...Well, this matter actually has nothing to do with you."

Yang Yun couldn't help frowning when he heard this, thinking: "The escort of gunpowder can be done by yourself. Whether I leave or not is second. Now when Gongsun Jian comes, County Magistrate Su directly blames me for the mistake. What is this not shirking responsibility?"

Yang Yun did not mean to expose the magistrate Su County, and immediately said: "Even if you set out, you have to wait until dawn... I will go back and rest first, and take people to Yizhou after dawn."

County Magistrate Su nodded with relief and said, "Since that's the case, I will arrange for people to load all the talismans into the car and leave as soon as the sky is dawn."
