Chapter 17 Cause of Death

Jiang was surprised that his daughter had left the eggs, and immediately smiled with relief, "My Aning is becoming more and more capable, so I'm waiting to taste your skills today."

If the eldest son and daughter can stand up, even if the couple have any in the future, they don’t have to worry that much.

Jiang thought, his eyes turned red again, and he didn't dare to let Tang Ning see it, so he turned around and walked out.

But in a moment, Tang Juncai and Tang Junyi also came back, but their faces were not very good-looking, so they took a group of people to the main hall as soon as they entered the yard.

Tang Juncai said to Tang Zheng with a calm face: "A Zheng, go to the yard to guard and don't let someone eavesdrop on us."

This posture...

Tang Zheng went out obediently, but Tang Ning sneaked into the house.

Tang Juncai didn't care so much, and said in a low voice and trembling voice: "I found out about Li San and Liuzi from Li Mu. They were killed by the Liao people."

"What?" Everyone in the room shouted out in horror except Tang Junyi. Tang Rou was so scared that her body trembled. Fortunately, the girl didn't follow her in the yard with wild fruits, otherwise she would have been shocked again.

Tang Junsheng was so panicked that he stuttered, "Why...why are they Liao people? Could it be that the Liao soldiers have already entered? Then we..."

Once the border is lost, they will become the first town to be slaughtered by the enemy. This news is even more deadly than military service taxes.

"Stern, don't panic, brother, what's going on?" Tang Junjie stared at Tang Juncai without blinking.

Tang Juncai said slowly, "This is also revealed by his confidant around Li Mu. If I go to find Li Mu today, he will know my purpose. He would always exchange greetings, but today he told me straightforwardly that I should not inquire about Li San and Liuzi. However, he reminded me in a vague way, if there is a distant relative, go and have a look.

I didn't understand at first. When I walked out of Li's mansion, I happened to meet two guards carrying the body from outside yesterday, muttering about some wound weapons, so I slowed down and listened with my ears for a while. What they meant was that Li San and Liuzi were killed.

The weapons that killed them were from the Great Liao Dynasty. Weapons have always been strictly controlled by the imperial court. At most, some people have kitchen knives, daggers, axes, and chop hatchets or farm tools. Even more powerful are big knives, long swords, bows and arrows. These things have to be reported to the government and cannot be kept privately by the people.

Now the weapons of the Great Liao Dynasty have killed people in the Great Zhou territory. No matter who is holding the weapons, it means that our gates are no longer stable. The best situation is that someone secretly brings back the Liao weapon on the battlefield, but I don’t know how it flows out, so the Liao weapon will kill people.

In the worst case, the Liao people had already sneaked into the Great Zhou Dynasty and were right in our town.”

With a "clang", Jiang's legs fell from the stool.

Tang Junsheng hurriedly helped the person up and asked Tang Juncai anxiously: "Brother, which possibility do you think do you have more?"

Tang Juncai didn't say anything, and Tang Junsheng's heart sank into the bottom of the valley.

"We have to leave this time!" Tang Junyi, who had been silent, said quietly: "Today, my elder brother went to Li Mu's house, so I went to the homes of several friends I knew. After that, I realized that many people had moved away. It has been two or three days, silently, and no one said that, even the neighbors didn't know about it, and they thought they were just not at home if they had something to do."

This is the disadvantage of having few people and land. Every household has a certain distance, and no one knows what happens without causing a big disturbance.

"How did they leave? Don't they not be able to leave Suzhou?" Tang Junsheng was anxious and planned how to leave.

Tang Junyi shook his head and sighed, "I don't know! No matter how they walked, I mean to get a way first. No matter where they go, leave first. It's too dangerous here. The mountains are right behind. I don't know when the Liao people will come and where they hide. I can't stay."

Tang Ning felt nervous. Tang Zhong was still in the mountains and asked hurriedly: "Uncle, will Liao people come over the mountains and come to us?"

Tang Junyi nodded with a heavy expression, "This mountain range in our town is the barrier of the Great Zhou, which isolates the exchanges between the two countries. Otherwise, with the strength of the Great Zhou, how could the Great Liao compete with the Great Liao for so many years?

You think that even though you have encountered many years of serious natural disasters and man-made disasters, no one thinks why they are walking into the mountains. The wild beasts are second. The most dangerous ones are often those who don’t know the details..."

Tang Ning's face turned pale when she heard this. Now she understood why everyone was almost starving to death and no one entered the mountain. They obviously didn't encounter any powerful beasts after running so far. Why didn't everyone have the courage to try their luck? It seems that she was thinking too simple now.

But Tang Zhong is still inside now, what should I do? Will she be honest about it?

Just when Tang Ning was worried, Tang Junsheng comforted Jiang and brought the food, and called Tang Zheng and Nizi to come in for dinner.

When Tang Rou saw that there was an egg custard made for her child, she shook her head flatteredly, "The third uncle kept it for her cousin to eat. My son is still young, so he can eat milk."

Jiang Shi shook her head with a wooden face, "Aning stews it specifically for the children, don't refuse. After eating this meal, I don't know where the next meal will be..."

Jiang's pessimistic emotions made Tang Rou red and she did not say anything to refuse.

Tang Ning didn't care about their emotions here, so he took a few bites of food and went to the yard. He even ran to the high slope behind him, staring at the direction of the mountain and praying that Tang Zhong would come back safely.

Seeing that it was getting dark, but still unable to see Tang Zhong's figure, Tang Ning became more and more anxious, and was about to tell Tang Junsheng about Tang Zhong's entry into the mountain and that boy was back.

He tiptoed into her room like a thief, and walked out like nothing was wrong. If Tang Ning hadn't been paying attention to him, he would have never noticed his little movements.

When the man came back safely, she also breathed a sigh of relief. Before Tang Zhong could show off his harvest, he pulled the man into the room. He twisted his ears and taught him a lesson unhappily: "I still know that I'm going back, I'm almost worried that I'm dying, do you know, and I almost told my parents that you've gone into the mountain."

Tang Zhong's grinning face instantly became extremely frightened, "Sister, have you sold me? My parents will beat me to death! It's over, it's over!"

Seeing him like this, Tang Ning dissipated no matter how powerful he was. "You are lucky. I haven't had time to say it yet, but there is no next time."
