Soon it was time to say goodbye. Tian Xing'er and the others reminded Lei Yu and the others about what their eldest brother had said, telling them to stock up on food and to learn more about the surrounding situation. If the situation got bad, they should close the store first, with safety as the priority. Lei Yu was very grateful and said he would definitely do as he was told.

After leaving An County, Tian Xing'er and the others walked all the way to Yingzhou Prefecture. Except for some necessary purchases, they did not go into the city.

Because of the grain storage issue, Tian Xinger and his companions made a special trip to Wu County this time. This is considered to be the county with the largest grain production in the northern region. They thought it was not far from their destination and they could buy some grain to take back.

I don’t know if their luck is really bad. They found something was wrong as soon as they entered Wu County.

"I'm afraid there will be another war soon. Let's buy some food and leave here as soon as possible." Tian Zhenwei took people out to purchase food and inquire about some news in the city. Only then did he realize that the timing of their arrival was really bad.

When Tian Xing'er heard about the war, she immediately asked, "Why is there another war? Didn't General Xiao Li drive the enemy away before? What's going on this time?"

"I don't know, but this war should be far away from Wu County and won't affect here. What we encountered before was a small group of Liao people who attacked us secretly. Anyway, we should leave this area as soon as possible and return to Yingzhou as soon as possible."

"Yes, sister, we will listen to Uncle Zhenwei. If you have anything to buy, buy it as soon as possible in the next few days. We need to return as soon as possible, so it is better to be careful."

"Okay, I've asked Baozhu and the others to buy some these days, and they should have bought most of it." Because there was nothing in Yingzhou, Tian Xing'er had originally thought that she might be able to go to Xiashang County on this trip and buy more things there. Things there were not as expensive as in other areas of Jiangnan, and could even be considered cheap; and they had a more complete range of things than in the north.

But because of the franchise matter this time, things changed and they saved a lot of time. However, because of this, they were unable to go to Chengshang County, so they changed their minds and thought about shopping in Wu County. The things here are different from those in Shang County, and there are many foreign specialties here.

"Have you bought the Champa rice?" Tian Yuheng had been farming with his father for half a year and knew the importance of food. Champa rice was easier to grow than other rice. It could be grown in dry land in the mountains and only took 100 days to mature. It was the best help for Yingzhou Prefecture under his father's rule.

"Yes, don't worry, young master. Miss has bought all the grain seeds, vegetable and fruit seeds that can be bought. She also let us buy a lot of sweet potatoes, peppers and other things that we have rarely seen before."

"Okay, notify them and we'll set off tomorrow." Tian Yuheng was afraid that the night would be long and he would

Fearing that the night would be too long and full of dreams, Tian Yuheng packed up his things today and set out before dawn the next day, thinking that it would be a long way to go back.

After walking for several days, the group finally left the dangerous place of Wu County. They thought the next journey would be relatively safe, but the facts proved that they were too naive.

Just when everyone relaxed their vigilance, a figure suddenly jumped out from the bushes on the roadside. When this person saw their team, he immediately fell to the ground, scaring the horse rider in front so much that he was almost thrown to the ground by the frightened horse.

"Huh...who is that!" Tian Zhenwei reacted very quickly. He quickly tightened the reins, steadied the horse, and drove to the front of the team to check the situation.

"Brother, he looks like a soldier." Someone said nearby.

"Turn him over and see if he's still breathing." Tian Zhenwei gave the order calmly. Then several people stepped forward and carefully turned the stranger over.

When they saw the other person's face clearly, everyone couldn't help but gasp - his face was covered in blood. Because he had just fallen face down on the ground, his bloody face was now covered in mud and sand, making it impossible to recognize his original appearance.

"He's still breathing. What should we do, brother?" one of his men asked Tian Zhenwei.

Since the man was still alive, Tian Zhenwei thought that he should discuss with Tian Yuheng in the rear about how to deal with it. When he was about to turn around and tell Tian Yuheng what happened here, the soldier suddenly said in a very weak voice: "Water... Water..."

"Go get some water and give it to him." Tian Zhenwei immediately asked someone to get some water.

The man next to him quickly jumped off the horse, took down the water bag hanging on the side of the horse, and quickly stepped forward to hand it over. Tian Zhenwei took the water bag, carefully lifted the man's head, and slowly poured the water into his mouth. After a few gulps of water, the man's face gradually regained some color, and his consciousness gradually became clear.

"How is it, brother? Which army do you belong to? What happened to make you look like this?" Tian Zhenwei asked anxiously, his eyes full of concern. However, just as he was expecting the other party's answer, the soldier just opened his mouth weakly and said intermittently: "Quick... hurry up and save... him... he is there..."

Before he finished speaking, the soldier fainted again, which made people worried. Tian Zhenwei frowned and felt more and more depressed. At this time, Tian Yuheng happened to come over and saw everyone gathered together. He hurried forward and asked, "What's wrong, Uncle Zhenwei?"

Tian Zhenwei briefly explained the situation to Tian Yuheng and inferred: "I'm afraid something happened nearby. Sir, just in case, I plan to send some people to investigate. At the same time, we must find a safe place to stay as soon as possible. After all, this place is still some distance away from the next post station."

Tian Yuheng nodded, indicating that he agreed with Tian Zhenwei's arrangement. He knew that in this situation, it was crucial to stay alert and take action. So Tian Yuheng immediately turned around to convey the order, telling the other accompanying personnel to be prepared and respond to any possible situation at any time.

Tie Qi was sent to check. He followed the injured man's footprints to find the person he mentioned. Tian Zhenwei led everyone to leave this place temporarily. They were now on a small road, and there might be more people on the main road ahead.

Tie Qi and his companions walked for about half an hour and found another soldier with blood all over his face under a tree. They looked around and made sure there was no one else around, so they took him away.

"Brother, we found the person." Tie Qi rode his horse at full speed and caught up with Tian Zhenwei and others.

"How about it, is there anyone else, just this one?"

"Yes, I saw it, but this person is more seriously injured. We need to find a doctor as soon as possible to treat him, otherwise his life may be in danger." When Tie Qi took the person away, he briefly checked the other party's condition and found that the situation was not very good.

"Okay, let Dr. Yang take a look. Is there any hope?"

Fortunately, there was Doctor Yang in the team this time, otherwise this soldier would have no chance of survival.
