Chapter 360 The hero's stumbling block on the road to escape from the famine 11
Gu Lanzhang, who was leaning against the wall and worried about his wife's injury, suddenly shuddered. He rubbed his arms in confusion. Isn't it cold? Could it be that he caught a cold from sleeping on the floor these past two days?
He looked at his sons worriedly, and saw that they were sleeping so soundly that for a moment he wanted to kick each of them. They were too heartless. They could actually still sleep!
But he was his own son after all, so he couldn't bring himself to do it. Just as he was about to close his eyes and rest, he heard the sound of a table being moved outside the wall.
He didn't take it seriously. After all, there were always people guarding outside. People would often come to bring tea and food to the officers and soldiers. Occasionally, he could hear them chatting, mostly telling dirty jokes, but nothing serious.
Unexpectedly, after a while I heard someone calling my name softly from above, and the voice sounded very familiar!
He looked up suddenly, and saw a figure leaning out from the top of the wall, and then he heard the person above say: "Lan Zhang? Lan Zhang? He's not here either..."
As he was about to retreat, Gu Lanzhang didn't have time to think about it and quickly said, "I'm here, but my lady?"
Xiao Yun immediately said in a pleasantly surprised tone: "Lan Zhang, it's really you! I finally found you! Where are your sons? The officers and soldiers outside have been drugged. Come out quickly, I'll open the door for you."
Jiaduobao squatted on the wall next to her and gave her a thumbs up. The control of emotions in his tone was worthy of that of a voice actor.
Xiao Yun rolled his eyes at it and sent a message to tell it not to make trouble.
"Really?"
"Really?"
"..."
Gu Lanzhang and several people around him who were still awake stood up instantly and said in disbelief.
Because of their exclamations, others who were not sleeping soundly woke up one after another, and then the noise spread out like a wave, and the whole yard became lively in an instant.
Fortunately, they also had doubts and did not dare to speak too loudly, but the sound of hundreds of people standing up and discussing in low voices was obvious in the silent night.
Xiao Yun ignored them and just directed Gu Lanzhang to walk towards the door, otherwise it would be difficult to squeeze out.
Gu Lanzhang had already kicked his three sons awake, and without waiting for them to say anything, he pulled them towards the gate. Fortunately, they were only about twenty meters away from the gate, but because there were so many people, it was still difficult to squeeze in.
The three brothers Gu Huairen, Gu Huaiyi and Gu Huaili heard their mother's voice as soon as they woke up. However, before they could confirm whether it was their mother's voice, they were taken away by their father.
Not only the four of them, but also the few people next to them also squeezed out. Some of them still haven't reacted yet and were not blocked.
Xiao Yun had already opened the lock by this time, and the key was found on the soldier guarding the gate.
After making sure they had reached the door, Xiao Yun opened it, and without saying a word, he pulled the three of them to the left. The people who followed them out had no time to react, and were pushed forward by the people who squeezed out after seeing that the door was really opened.
Xiao Yun held Gu Lanzhang and his youngest son, while Gu Lanzhang held the other two. No one in the family dared to speak, for fear of waking up the soldier lying against the wall.
They originally thought that Xiao Yun had found the exit and was going to take them away directly, but they did not expect that they were taken to a room in the backyard, where three soldiers were lying in bed.
"Madam, what are we doing here? And how is your injury?"
Although my wife is walking very fast, I saw her get hit with a stick before, so I think she must have internal injuries.
Xiao Yun pulled them directly into the house and said without looking back: "It's okay, Mingyue applied medicine to me and I'm fine now. I've already found out that this is where they keep their silver. All our silver was gone before, so we have to get some back now."
As he spoke, he pushed away the officer and soldier who were lying on the box. He must have been counting the silver before he fainted, and the lid of the box was still open.
I didn't hear any movement behind me. I turned around and found the three men standing there like wooden men. They nodded their chins in the direction of the box and said, "Hurry up and do it. What are you standing there for? If they wake up, we won't be able to leave."
Gu Lanzhang and his two sons finally woke up as if from a dream. They looked at their wife/mother with complicated eyes, stammered for a while, and finally reached out to the box obediently.
At the same time, he looked for something nearby that could hold the silver. Finally, he stripped a soldier's shirt and tore it into three pieces to temporarily wrap the silver. There was no other way, their clothes were too thin, and a silver ingot would be very obvious.
They didn't plan to take it all away. There was so much silver that they couldn't carry it all. Although Xiao Yun could take it all away, there was no need to do so. There was plenty of silver and even mountains of gold in the space, but they just couldn't use them openly.
Besides, if they really took them all away, these officers and soldiers would probably chase after those who ran away today without regard for the consequences, which would not only make it more difficult for them to escape, but if anyone was caught, he would definitely be tortured.
Although she is not a good person, there is no need to harm others. If she takes away dozens or hundreds of taels of silver, there is no need for these people to fight for their lives.
It is also possible that these officers and soldiers would think that they had enriched themselves and at least would not think of those who escaped.
Of course, it is possible that they want the able-bodied men to take the blame, but she can't do anything about it. It's good enough that they can think of this, it's impossible to take care of everything.
The father and his two sons each carried fifty taels of silver, and Xiao Yun also took some loose change for use on the road.
Then he took the three people to the next room, which were bedrooms. He picked out three better quilts from the cabinets in the room and packed them up with bed curtains and took them away.
Who knows if there will be anywhere else to buy this thing in the future. Other things are fine, but they definitely have to stay away from it in this situation, and they can only go north, or go abroad. But the further north you go, the colder it gets, so it's better to be prepared.
I didn't take too much, three is enough, and it would be difficult to carry more.
Because the officers and soldiers fainted during dinner time and there was no one in the bedroom, they took a copper kettle, a few cups, and two tinder sticks, which were more useful than flints.
While getting the things, Gu Lanzhang also asked about the situation of his two daughters. Knowing that his daughters were hiding well, he felt relieved.
In fact, the father and his two sons had many questions in their hearts, but they also knew that now was not the time to ask. They could only wait until they got out and were safe before asking.
After quickly packing up these things, Xiao Yun led them towards the back kitchen. The kitchen was locked from the inside, so she could ask Xiao Lin to lock it again after she went out. She also needed to take two kitchen knives, which were indispensable.
Their kitchen knives had not been lost before, but the blades were bent and chipped. Due to the control of ironware, they could only take them to the blacksmith shop to repair them when they could no longer be used, otherwise they had to make do with what they had.
