Traveling through ancient times, I led my family to prosperity

Shen was also very aggrieved, shedding tears, "Dad, I didn't ask Xiu'e to do any heavy work, I was just too busy and wanted her to help, but she scolded me."

Shen had been the daughter-in-law of the old Sheng family for so many years, and both Old Master Sheng and Cui knew her character. Although she was lazy and greedy, she was not a wicked person after all, but a kind person. Pang Xiu'e was speechless now, and Old Master Sheng couldn't just listen to Shen's one-sided words, after all, he had lost a great-grandson.

When Sheng Yuan came back, his face was bruised and his clothes were torn. It turned out that he was robbed when he went out alone. However, he finally walked to the pharmacy, but gave up when he saw that it was closed.

He also felt that Pang Xiu'e might not survive as she had lost so much blood, so he got rid of the refugees and was determined to return at all costs.

"Xiao Lan, take some rice dumplings to your uncle Hu's house so that Xiaobao can satisfy his craving." As Zhang spoke, she put rice dumplings, eggs, meat and rice into the basket.

These things were sent by Zhao Dongjia and Bao family. Zhang thought that the Hu family lived a very poor life, so she packed up some food and gave it to Xiaolan.

Xiao Lan called Sheng Xuan, and the two went to Hu Yidao's house together.

"Uncle Hu, what are you doing at home?" Xiao Lan knocked on the door of Hu Yidao's house and called out to him.

Hu Yidao heard the voice and hurried out to open the door, "Xiao Lan, Brother Xuan, why are you here? Come in and sit down. Mother, Xiao Lan and Brother Xuan are here, please boil some water."

"Hey, hey." Liu wiped her hands and ran out. Seeing Xiaolan and Shengxuan, she quickly and enthusiastically ushered them into the house. "Xiaolan and Brother Xuan are here. Come in and sit down. I'll go boil some water and make some tea."

"Aunt Liu, stop busying yourself. My father and I are here to bring you some things," Xiao Lan handed them the things and said with a smile, "We won't stay for long. We will be back soon. This is for you to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival, so that everyone can satisfy their cravings."

Liu couldn't help but wiped her tears. The fate between her family and Xiaolan's family was because her parents-in-law borrowed the help of her family and returned to the capital safely. Because of this incident, they started to interact with Xiaolan's family. In the past six months, her family has received a lot of favors from Xiaolan's family.

Xiao Lan seemed not to see it. After putting the things down, she pulled Sheng Xuan out, and no matter how Liu tried to stop her, she couldn't.

Hu Yidao chased after them, walked to the side of Sheng Xuan and Xiao Lan, and said solemnly, "Brother Xuan, Xiao Lan, thank you. No matter what happens in the future, just come to me, and I will definitely do it for you."

Xiao Lan looked at Hu Yidao seriously, "Uncle Hu, what our family did is nothing. The current situation is still unstable. You must protect yourselves. Our two families are close to each other, so if there is any problem in the future, we can both take care of each other."

Hu Yidao nodded, "Hey, hey."

Sheng Xuan patted Hu Yidao on the shoulder and said, "Brother Hu, go back and tell your wife that if you have any problems in the future, you can come to my house to find me, or the child's mother."

That evening, before the sun set, Xiao Lan was practicing archery at home when suddenly there was a hurried knock on her door.

Xiao Lan climbed up the escalator and saw the man at the door had two arrows stuck in his body, but the way he was dressed definitely didn't look like someone from nearby. Xiao Lan instinctively felt the danger. What had she not experienced in these years? She could already calmly watch the man with the arrows fall down at the door of her house without any reaction.

Fortunately, she was calm and didn't shout. The man had already taken out his hidden arrow from her where she couldn't see it. Feeling that the person on the wall was just looking at him and had no ill intentions, he took the hidden arrow back.

Xiao Lan wanted to pretend that she didn't see him and was about to climb down the escalator. Before leaving, she glanced at him again, and the man just happened to look up at her. This was embarrassing. Xiao Lan wanted to stick to the principle of less trouble and didn't want to open the door to this stranger, but now she was caught red-handed.

Xiao Lan looked at him for a moment.

The man was seriously injured. Not only was he hit by two arrows, but he also had wounds on his legs and waist. Xiao Lan had seen this man from a distance before and had some impression of him. He seemed to be Mr. Shen Liu, the general of the city, a member of a royal family. If he got into trouble at her doorstep, her family would probably be involved. Now that she understood the seriousness of the matter, Xiao Lan did not waste any more time. She strode to the door, welcomed the man into her home, and then closed the door, trying to stay calm, "What's going on? Why are you injured and running to my doorstep?"

Master Shen Liu seemed to know what Xiao Lan was thinking. Although he had lost too much blood and felt a little dizzy, his mind was still clear. He glanced at Xiao Lan and said nothing.

Seeing that he was only half alive, Xiao Lan was about to ask how to place him. At this time, she heard the sound of horse hooves outside. At this time, alarm bells rang in her heart. She frowned and asked again, "What's going on? Are you trying to harm our family?"

"We encountered the enemy..." Shen Liu said with difficulty.

Hearing this, Xiao Lan's eyes widened, "Who outside is an enemy or a friend? If you have something to do, why do you come to our house instead of running to the government office? Besides, we don't even know each other. Is there anyone like you who is so harmful to others?" Xiao Lan complained while picking up the bow and arrow next to her.

"It's the enemy. They have a lot of people. Many of my followers were killed by them. Now I am separated from my people." After saying these words, Shen Liu took a heavy breath.

Xiao Lan didn't care about anything at this moment. Hearing the sound of horse hooves getting closer and closer outside, she took a wrong step and ran to the escalator on the top of the wall, drew her bow and shot an arrow.

Xiao Lan counted the number of people, and there were exactly four of them. She narrowed her eyes and shot two arrows at them. Two people were killed instantly. These people were not vegetarians. They were shot with cold arrows when they were not prepared. They were caught off guard. The remaining two people looked at the bodies of their accomplices, who were dragged away by the frightened horses, and they also became cautious. These two people also started shooting arrows at her. After Xiao Lan dodged the two arrows shot by the other side, she took out the last two arrows behind her and aimed them at them. With a "swoosh", the two people on the horse instantly fell backwards to the ground.

Then the horse got scared and ran away...

Xiao Lan looked into the distance for a while, and after making sure that there was no one chasing her, she closed her eyes, concealing all the murderous intent in her eyes, and went down the escalator.

At this time, Shen Liu looked at her and said, "You have a steady hand, fast arrows, and you never miss a shot. You are a good archer." Shen Liu looked at Xiao Lan coldly, but his breath was so weak that there was no deterrent effect at all.

"I've hunted before." Xiao Lan said lightly.

Shen Liu is the general of the city, he can't die in her home, "Do you want to pull out the arrow? I'm afraid I can't hide this from my family, you'd better leave quickly." Xiao Lan looked at the arrow stuck in his body and indicated the arrow in his body with her eyes.

"Hide it from your family first. The fewer people who know about my injury, the better." Shen Liu said.

Shen Liu was indeed a man. Before Xiao Lan pulled out the arrow, she poured wine on him to disinfect it. He didn't even say a word. After bandaging his wound, Xiao Lan asked again, "When are you leaving?"

"Go out and deal with the bodies. Don't let the enemy get close." Shen Liu said evasively.

Xiao Lan's strength has been trained. When she went hunting in the mountains before, she followed Sheng Xuan to carry things and walk long distances. In addition to her own subconscious training, not only did her archery skills improve, but her strength also increased a lot.

If people want to survive, they have to do things that they would never have thought of before, and they also have to have the ability to protect themselves. This is the conclusion Xiao Lan came to after the famine.

Xiao Lan cleaned up all the bloodstains and traces of fighting, and hid the body in the weeds outside, waiting for Shen Liu's followers to arrive and deal with it.
