Lan Wangshu didn't care what he was thinking. Right now, the corpses on the ground had to be dealt with.

She turned around and prepared to ride into the city to report to the authorities, but Cang Wenyuan hesitated for a moment and finally stopped her.

"Sister Wangshu."

The girl glanced at him indifferently, and considering that the young man did not run away, she was willing to have a brief exchange with him.

"Come with me into the city, and we'll talk as we go."

"Let's go by ox cart. It's too cold to ride a horse today. And this fur is useless. Put it away."

Lan Wangshu nodded and waved to Dashan to come over.

"Miss Blue."

"I have prepared food for you. Ask someone to go home with me to get it. If there is anyone who can do needlework, please follow me."

The cheerful woman who had spoken to her before also appeared in front of her. Lan Wangshu had a good impression of her.

"What's your name?"

"Hongxiu."

"Okay, you'll be in charge of the women and children. Report to me when I come back. Can you do that?"

When the woman smiled, there was a small dimple at the corner of her mouth, like a black pearl adorning her face, which looked very pleasing.

"Don't worry, girl. Leave it to me."

A group of more than a dozen people walked towards Lan Wangshu's home in the cold wind.

Lan Wangshu took Dashan into the warehouse and took away some food, as well as the stored cloth and chicken feathers.

"Hongxiu, these feathers are to be filled into the quilt, which should be warmer. The quilt should be divided into several grids, and some feathers should be placed in each grid. It should be warmer at night. Let's do this for now. I will bring some meat for the children when I come back."

Hongxiu also has a child. When she heard that her child would have meat to eat, she was so grateful that she almost cried. She was so excited that she wanted to kneel down on the spot, but was stopped by Lan Wangshu.

"Dashan, you go back and lead them first. The most important thing is to protect the scene and don't let anyone get close to it. I will go into the city and come back soon to deal with these bandits. You also have to be vigilant. Who knows if there are others behind them."

Lan Wangshu’s idea was very simple. Everyone called that man the Third Brother. What if he was the third in the village? In this world, you would not go wrong if you were careful.

"I know, girl."

When Lan Wangshu went out, she changed into an ordinary coat. She couldn't help shivering when she saw the wind. Fortunately, she wore a down vest inside, otherwise it would be too cold.

When he looked up again, Cang Wenyuan was already waiting at the door in a ox cart.

She didn't say anything polite and just sat on the ox cart casually, waved goodbye to Dashan and the others and left.

"Sister Wangshu, do you know them?"

"We know each other."

Cang Wenyuan was a little surprised that she would be so happy.

"When did we meet?"

"Today!"

Lan Wangshu's gaze made Cang Wenyuan feel uncomfortable, as if he was concerned about whether he was sick.

Cang Wenyuan was silent. He knew that he couldn't get anything out of her.

"This group of people are all skilled in martial arts and well-trained. They are obviously not ordinary people."

"I know. Dashan said that when he was bored in the village, he watched the Xiqi people set up formations and thought it was interesting, so he learned it. I just happened to have some ideas about formations, so we chatted for a while and we got along very well."

"you……"

Cang Wenyuan told himself that this little girl had a lot of ideas, and he would not be able to answer them with just a few questions, and what she said might not be true.

He thought about it carefully and felt that Lan Wangshu's statement was plausible and very likely. However, he still felt that something was wrong. Were the two of them getting to know each other too quickly?

But according to normal human behavior, if two people are familiar with each other and want to avoid suspicion, they will keep their distance, but they will not be like the two of them. He couldn't understand what they were thinking.

Cang Wenyuan thought about why Dashan listened to Lan Wangshu's advice, but he couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried. He just staggered into the city.

The ox cart stopped in front of the county government office. Along the way, Cang Wenyuan didn't say a word except at the beginning. He didn't want to talk to Lan Wangshu either, as he didn't want to waste his energy.

He took out a booklet from his arms, opened it, turned to a page and handed it to the yamen runner.

The originally cold young man immediately smiled, bent his back slightly, and was very polite.

"Mr. Cang, if there is anything that requires you to come in person, please tell me and I will inform Lord He immediately."

"Bandits appeared in Cangnan Village, intending to kill people and massacre the entire village."

Before the bailiff had finished listening, he leaned back, widened his eyes, and took a breath of cold air.

Cang Wenyuan was interrupted and felt a little unhappy. He gave the bailiff a cold look before continuing.

"Now they have all been killed, and the bodies are still there. Lord He, please make the decision."

The bailiff smiled and ran hastily inside, as if something terrible was chasing him.

Lan Wangshu leaned against the cow and stretched out his hand to smooth the old ox's fur.

"Brother Cang is indeed not an ordinary person. Even the yamen runners have to give him some face, unlike me."

Cang Wenyuan ignored Lan Wangshu's sarcasm and just shook his head helplessly. He had to protect the children in his village.
