In ancient times, she gave birth to seven daughters and was divorced by her husband's family.
Chapter 880 Xu Xian comes to help! The old lady who has been staring at Bai Lu from behind is caught
"What? What the hell is going on?!"
General Li and Prime Minister Wang were both shocked.
Gu Liang quickly explained: "But don't worry, the people are not rebelling, they are revolting to save Lady Bai!"
"They heard that White Snake was trapped, and they all rushed to Zhaozhou. After I learned the news, I sent several lieutenants to persuade the people to return... Now everyone has returned home, and I also brought them the blood letter signed by ten thousand people!"
"If the Turkic Khan saw this blood letter, he would know how important White Snake is in the hearts of the people. He would not dare to kill her."
"If he really does fight, everyone in Dawu will regard him as an enemy!"
Hearing this, everyone finally let go of their worries and praised: "You did a great job!"
"If we let the people come here in such large numbers, we might be labeled as 'traitors', which would be troublesome."
"To save White Snake alone and let so many people die, that would be truly wrong."
"When the time comes, the history books will record that White Snake is not a kind person who saved people, but a villain who brought chaos to the world!"
Gu Liang said solemnly, "But this time the people suddenly revolted, and I always feel that something is wrong... White Snake's life is at stake, and the people are right to be anxious. After all, she has done so much for everyone."
"But the people are not stupid. They know they can't defeat the Turks alone. Why would they suddenly start an uprising?"
"We have to look into this matter carefully later."
But there are some strange points. Such an uprising of the people can actually do nothing... The emperor will not take it seriously.
Everyone nodded in agreement, but did not regard it as the most important thing. The most important thing right now was to keep Bai Lu alive.
They said, "Gu Liang, you've arrived just in time. Hurry up and go into the mountains to help His Royal Highness the Crown Prince rescue Lady Bai!"
"They have already entered the mountains. The Turks are also in the mountains now. We must catch up with them as soon as possible."
Gu Liang's heart tightened, and he nodded immediately. He rode his horses and whipped the horses with several deputy generals, rushing towards Lingshan.
Looking at his receding back, the people left in the city could only sigh.
I hope that White Snake is safe and sound, and that the people of Zhaozhou hiding in the mountains are all well...
In fact, the people of Zhaozhou and Bai Lu were indeed safe and sound.
They set up several traps in the mountains to guard against the Turks, and also hunted many animals such as wild boars and rabbits.
The people all felt that they were lucky as they were able to catch a lot of prey in a short time. Moreover, these prey were all large and looked very plump.
The fog in the deep mountains is so thick that even if people make a fire to cook, the smoke will be covered by the fog, and there is no need to worry about being discovered by the Turks outside the mountains.
Everyone worked together to deal with the prey.
Pluck the wild boar's hair, peel off its skin, cut open its belly, take it to the river, wash it carefully, and then cut it into large pieces.
There was a butcher in the city who was very skilled. He quickly removed the pork ribs and carefully put away the pig's trotters, thighs and skin, eliminating any waste.
The pig fat is put into a bucket to be boiled into lard later.
Among pork, the three-layered meat is the most fragrant, and the butcher specially cuts out this part of the meat...
But after removing half of it, he cut the pork belly into small pieces, planning to stew a pot of braised pork for Bai Lu.
"White Lady must be starving!"
He brought some salt when he came. There aren't many seasonings here, but the pork stewed with salt will definitely be delicious, and maybe he can eat more.
"She's so thin, she should eat some more nutrition..."
This meal tasted particularly delicious.
The people all said that the food was better than what they had in Zhaozhou City.
The aroma of pork wafted far away, and the surrounding fences were reinforced tightly, protecting all the people inside.
With so many people gathered together, no one was afraid at all even if there were wild beasts or wolves roaming in the mountains.
After all, there are tens of thousands of people!
At worst, we’ll die together!
Bai Lu looked at the scene in front of her, feeling a little dazed.
He actually fled to the mountains with tens of thousands of people!
She rescued three-quarters of the people from Zhaozhou City, which was about to be massacred... This was already the best outcome.
Although many people unfortunately died along the way, she had tried her best.
If we hadn't taken action at the time, more people would have died.
"After everyone finishes their meal, let's make jerky out of the remaining meat. If the situation gets worse in a few days, we can go a little further into the mountains..."
"This mountain is huge. We definitely can't walk it all in one day. If the Turks come in to search for us, we'll have a plan."
"Are you right?"
Bai Lu said to the people with a smile.
"Yes!"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
At this moment, Bai Lu suddenly heard the voice of Mr. Xi next to her: "Your old acquaintance is here, do you want to meet him?"
Bai Lu was stunned and asked doubtfully, "Old acquaintance? Could he be a Turk?"
"Who else could it be if not me?"
A crisp voice came.
Immediately afterwards, a little girl jumped out from the bushes, scaring everyone present.
The little girl looked lively and smiled at Bai Lu: "I am Mr. Xi's junior sister, do you still remember me?"
"Oh, I remember, of course I remember."
Bai Lu responded with a smile.
The little girl said happily again: "I gave myself a name from the Central Plains, Xu Xian! Hello, White Snake!"
"..."
Bai Lu's mouth twitched and she gasped in shock.
This little girl must have recently watched "The Legend of White Snake" and, seeing that her name was "White Snake", she deliberately chose the name "Xu Xian", right?
Xu Xian was still talking excitedly: "I haven't seen you for a long time. I came here specially to play with you this time!"
"But what are you doing? Why are there so many people here?"
Bai Lu hurried forward and whispered the whole story to her.
After hearing this, the little girl's eyes widened: "Wow! You are so amazing! You actually brought so many people to the mountains for refuge!"
Xu Xian was also very surprised. It was the first time she saw such a powerful host who could save so many people!
Bai Lu smiled and asked her to sit down: "Come, sit down, this is the braised pork...try it."
"Okay!"
Xu Xian didn't dislike it at all. He picked up the bowl of braised pork that Bai Lu had eaten, scooped a mouthful into his mouth, and then curled his lips.
Hmm, it doesn't seem to have any taste...
She rolled her eyes, looked at the expectant butcher and the cooks, and said with a smile, "It's delicious."
"This braised pork is so delicious! It's the best thing I've ever eaten!"
Although the words were exaggerated, everyone burst into laughter when they saw how likable Xu Xian was.
Bai Lu's mouth twitched, and she couldn't help but smile at Xu Xian: "If you like it, eat more."
The wild vegetable dumplings were made with vegetables picked from the mountains and mixed with the little rice they brought with them.
They are called dumplings, but they are actually wild vegetable balls covered with rice grains.
But even so, it's good to have something to eat at this time.
Everyone stuffed the food into their mouths and ate it with gusto.
Two more pieces of pork.
"Oh my god, this smells so good!"
Bai Lu and Xu Xian sat opposite each other, with Master Xi next to them.
The three of them gathered together and heard Xu Xian say to Bai Lu with a smile, "I heard you were in trouble, so I came here... Well, it seems there is nothing here that I can help you with."
The people are not displaced and Bai Lu is not harmed, so I feel relieved.
"When you're safe, we can play together. I like your daughters very much."
"Oh, by the way, do you have a daughter named May?"
"That May... is very beautiful."
Xu Xian smiled, "She looks most like you."
Bai Lu heard this and nodded with a smile: "Okay, okay, when I return to Qingzhou, I will take you to find my daughters."
"Okay, I'll bring them some gifts."
Xu Xian was eating with a smile on his face and talking to the system.
Although the system felt that this thing had no taste and tasted like chewing wax, it still stuffed it into its mouth so as not to disappoint the villagers.
Although they are a system, now... they seem to have developed some human feelings.
A thousand or ten thousand times stronger than some cold-blooded and heartless people in this world who regard human life as worthless!
Bai Lu and the others were eating when they suddenly heard a rustling sound of grass not far away!
"!!!"
Bai Lu suddenly felt like she was facing a formidable enemy. When she turned around, she saw a figure standing there looking at her.
That was an old lady.
She had a fierce look on her face, and her triangular eyes stared at her with malice.
She was wearing a black cloak and at first glance, she looked like a ghost!
Bai Qi flew out in an instant and tried to catch the old lady.
Bai Lu was shocked!
It must be this old lady that they almost caught last time!
I originally thought that Bai Qi's martial arts should be better than that, but I didn't expect that the old lady's Qinggong was very strong. She only touched the ground with her toes...
Suddenly, this world seemed to be in her control. She could go wherever she wanted and flew away without a trace.
Even for Bai Qi, it was very difficult to find her, and she disappeared for a while.
Bai Lu narrowed her eyes, really afraid that something might happen at this time.
After all, she was able to run so deep into the mountains. Would she go out and inform the Turks?
Where does this person come from?
He actually followed me so closely and for such a long distance!
So weird!
Bailu felt very cold in her heart.
Thinking of the system and Xu Xian next to her, an idea flashed in her mind, and Bai Lu shouted: "Master Xi, Xu Xian, please help!"
Master Xi and Xu Xian nodded frantically and immediately flew forward, even faster than Bai Qi.
"..."
It didn't take long before the old lady was caught by the two of them.
The old lady looked bruised and swollen, as if she had been beaten like a pig's head.
He looked completely different from his previous ferocious appearance... He fell into a coma and couldn't be woken up no matter how much we called him.
The system and Xu Xian exchanged a glance, then Xu Xian stepped forward and whispered to Bai Lu, "This old thing is really fast. Fortunately, I was even faster. I threw a mist bomb at her and knocked her unconscious."
"Hmm...it will take at least half a day for her to wake up. Let's tie her up and keep watch over her first."
Bai Lu nodded.
"But it's troublesome. There's no rope here."
Bai Lu was feeling a bit distressed when she heard Xu Xian say with a smile, "Let me carry this old lady on my back. It's okay without a rope. How could I let this old lady get lost?"
Bai Lu was happy and nodded: "Thank you very much!"
The villagers nearby watched the farce happening here and fell into deep thought for a moment, not knowing what was going on.
They hurried forward and asked, "This... White Lady, are you okay?"
"General Bai, who is this person? Why does it feel like he doesn't seem like a good person?"
"Yes, yes, this old lady is so disrespectful! She actually stared at us White Snake like that over there. First of all, we didn't see it just now!"
"We were eating... and suddenly we got a glimpse of that, and it nearly frightened us to death!"
"Yeah, it looks too fierce! My child is only three years old, and he was so scared that he kept crying!"
Bai Lu smiled and touched the open-crotch pants doll held in the arms of a commoner, and said to them, "Don't worry, nothing will happen. We are here to guard it."
"Yes! We are not afraid even if the Turks come!"
The people waved their hands and spoke boldly.
Suddenly, some people started yelling, "Stop talking nonsense! What if the Turks come here?!"
I don’t know if there is really such a saying as “Speak of Cao Cao and Cao Cao will appear”, but after a while, Bai Lu sat here and felt that the wind seemed to be a little stronger.
Then Xu Xian and Master Xi came forward and said to Bai Lu, "Thirty miles away, the Turks are coming this way."
"what?"
Bai Lu was shocked when she heard this. "The Turks are here! They're chasing us so fast."
"And not just one or two!"
Xu Xian and the system added, "He's coming with a large army. If these people were to confront him... they would definitely not end well."
"Hurry up and go deeper."
"Okay! Then Sister Xu Xian, Master Xi, can you tell roughly which direction it is?"
Bai Lu's heart immediately tightened, and she hurriedly asked Xu Xian and Xi Gongzi.
Xu Xian and Xi Gongzi nodded and said, "Don't worry, we can tell the direction. We will show you the direction. You can run with the people!"
Bai Lu waved her hand and immediately shouted, "People, let's go deeper immediately. We have almost eaten all the prey around here."
"If we go deeper, we should be able to find more prey."
Upon hearing this, the people hesitated, looked at the fence near them, and someone said.
"But... White Lady, didn't you say you would leave in a few days?"
Bai Lu was stunned.
The people smiled bitterly. "We finally managed to set up camp here. This fence... took us a long time to put up. If we go any further, our base camp will be ruined, and we'll have to spend time rebuilding it."
