    On this day, Ma Mazi came to visit, and Mr. Long met him in the living room.  It had only been a few days, but Ma Mazi's face was already looking haggard. Old Master Long asked what was going on.  Ma Mazi sighed and finally said: "My family is out of foodOld Master, can you help me with some food?" Old Master Long smiled bitterly: "I even asked my daughter-in-law to borrow food from your house. Why did you ask me to borrow food instead?  Ma Mazi was about to cry and choked up: "I really ran out of food. I used all the food to exchange for land. Oh! I'm really blinded by lard. There's so much food. I'm just lying there."  I can't finish it in ten years. But now, I can't even find a damn steamed bun! My father-in-law's family doesn't look good because I have a cross nose and green eyebrows. They don't have enough food at home, so they blame us for eating.  They ran out of food and were quarreling every day. I didn¡¯t know what to do. I had to come to you. I heard from my daughter that if you exchanged antiques for food, could you give me some from the land?  Let¡¯s exchange it with you!¡± ¡°Why don¡¯t you go to the restaurant to exchange it?¡± ¡°Why?¡± ¡°They said that many people died in these famines.  The people on the ground are either dead or have fled the field. Where are the people farming? Even if we find people to farm, it is already spring, but the wind and snow have no intention of stopping, and the fields are covered with thick snow.  How to farm? If I miss the spring plowing, I'm afraid it will be delayed again. What else can I do if I want the land now?  There is no one to change. Sigh" Mr. Long was stunned.  That doesn't mean the property in my hands now.  All turned into something worse than waste paper?  Mr. Long smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I can't exchange my antiques for anything. Now I have spent less than half of them, and I can't support them for a few days. I'm still worried about what to do. - Have you gone to relatives and friends to borrow them?  "Gone!" Ma Mazi said with a sad face, "I have asked everyone who can borrow it, but the rice merchants have refused to lend it, and everyone else has almost run out of food. Many families who were originally wealthy are now eating rice bran."  It's still good, but some people are so hungry that they still hope to borrow food from me." The two of them sighed for a long time, talking about the lack of food.  Then he started to scream.  Ma Mazi whispered: "I have an idea, can you listen to it?" "Tell me. What idea?" "Now the only person with food in our village is the poor scholar. He has some insight and hoards it.  There is a lot of food, so I can only rely on him." "That's right!" Mr. Long slapped his thigh.  "Why didn't I think of him? He has a good mind, so he should be able to borrow it. If it doesn't work, I can exchange antiques with him. He doesn't know how to do it. He probably doesn't know that the price of antiques has dropped. Let's go to him now. Get all the antiques  "I don't have any antiques. I don't know if he wants the land. I'll trade him for a piece of land!" "Do you know where he lives now?"  I found out that he has gone back to the Wenshun Escort Agency to work as an escort. "Go quickly! Don't let others take advantage of you." "Bring your wife and children along and let them cry and pretend to be pitiful."  Maybe I¡¯ll agree.¡± ¡°No need to pretend, we¡¯ll be really miserable if we can¡¯t find anything to eat!¡± The two of them just went ahead and took their wives and children to find Gu Yezhou.  The two families arrived at the escort office pitifully, and after asking, they found out that Gu Yezhou's bodyguard had gone and had not returned yet.  However, his grain is stored in the home of rice merchant Hu Wanghai, and no one else can make the decision.  ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª Gu Yezhou and the others, who were trapped in Lingtai County by the wind and snow, were extremely anxious.  A few days later, the blizzard showed no sign of stopping. After some discussion, we decided to brave the blizzard and set off back to Nanjia County.  Commander Zeng was also worried about the situation at home, so he agreed to return.  So, the group set off along the official road in the snowstorm and returned.  Before departure, Fan Jianmei and the others saw off Gu Yezhou and the others. Because the two of them lived and died together, Fan Jianmei had some cordial feelings towards Gu Yezhou and talked to him more.  She even toasted him personally, but she still couldn't change her eldest lady's temper, and her words always made people uncomfortable, so Gu Yezhou always treated her lightly, which made Boss Fan Jianmei unhappy, but she had already  I had already seen Gu Yezhou's indifference before escaping from the cave. Although he was not happy, he was somewhat used to it.  After Gu Yezhou and the others set off, they discovered that the snowstorm was worse than they imagined.Unfortunately, after leaving the city and entering the wild, it is almost difficult to discern the direction.  The cold wind mixed with the blizzard made people unsteady on their feet.  Fortunately, Master Fan was grateful for seeing them all the way, so he prepared enough carriages and horses for them all to ride along the official road.  There are stoves on the carriages for heating.  It was a three-day journey, but they only walked half of the way because of the snowstorm.  Because we have to stop at night to prevent the carriage from falling into the valley because we can¡¯t see the road.  That evening, they camped in a leeward place.  Grouping the carriages together and tethering them to each other increased their ability to withstand blizzards.  It also blocks the wind.  Gu Yezhou was riding in a carriage alone. Since they had physical intimacy with Zeng Lingmei, the two of them paid special attention to avoiding suspicion in front of others.  So not only did she not sit in the same car with Gu Yezhou along the way, but she rarely talked to him after settling down.  The same goes for setting up camp that evening.  Gu Yezhou had eaten dry food and was about to lie down to rest. Suddenly, he heard the urgent warning whistle from the bodyguard who was on guard.  He immediately pulled out his pistol, loaded the bullet, held it with his left hand, pulled out a single knife with his right hand, lifted the car curtain, and jumped out of the car.  The escorts, yamen agents, and minzhuang on each carriage all jumped out of the carriages and looked around with their weapons in hand.  I only heard the sound of the rush in the snowstorm, mixed in the sound of shouting, making people very nervous, because the storm snow everywhere was too big, and there was no such thing as a dozen steps.  Not being able to see the enemy makes it even more confusing.  Zeng Biaotou and Zeng Lingmei also got out of the car.  Seeing Gu Yezhou, he rushed over.  At this moment, someone in the snowstorm heard a loud voice: "Is Chief Zeng here? Come and talk!" Chief Zeng and Gu Yezhou looked at each other, and both of them were startled because of this voice.  It sounded very familiar. It seemed to be the voice of the bandits' leader, the Mountain God.  The three of them followed the sound and finally saw rows of bandits in the blizzard, all holding bows and arrows!  Target them!  Bows and arrows!  That's the deadliest weapon in a snowstorm like this.  Escort Zeng turned his head and said urgently: "Everyone lie down and take cover. The bandits have bows and arrows!" The escorts, police officers and Minzhuang hurriedly lay down on the snow one by one, and some even got under the carriage.  .  The Yamen's shield hand was also well-trained, so he quickly stepped forward and built two shield walls in two rows.  The archer's bow and arrow also came out of the gap, aiming in the direction of the bandit.  However, the visibility in the snowstorm was too low, and they could not see the bandits at all.  You can only aim forward blindly.  .  The mountain god held a long and thick shield made of pure iron, covering most of his body. He looked at them with one eye from behind the shield and sneered: "Boss Zeng, don't be nervous, we are not here to fight with you.  Yes. But I want something." Hearing his polite words, Chief Zeng felt a little relieved and said, "What is it?" "What you took from the cave when you brought Miss Fan back."  The head guard frowned and said: "Scarwolf and the others who took the hostage are your people?" "No, but. I was entrusted by someone to retrieve that thing. We know that you are rescuing Master Fan.  When I was a daughter, I killed Scar Wolf and Carp. I don't care about your murders, as long as you return the very heavy blue cloth package you took away, I don't need to say anything about it.  Of course, you have to give it back to us in good condition." Chief Zeng didn't even look at Gu Yezhou next to him, and said calmly: "I'm sorry, we didn't take anything when we rescued the hostages." "No.  Maybe!" the mountain god said decisively, "That thing is in the cave. We have found the cave. You killed Li Yu and his men, stacked the bodies at the entrance of the cave, blocked the cave, and took off their clothes.  , that thing was on the carp at that time, it could only have been taken away by you, it couldn't be someone else! - I'm warning you, Mr. Zeng, this thing is not something you can eat. If you hand it over now,  Everything is over. If you refuse to hand it over, your escort agency will probably be in trouble! No one can protect you this time!" The escort leader Zeng said solemnly: "It doesn't matter if you believe it or not, we really didn't take anything away!  " "Do you really not want the lives of dozens of people in your escort agency? We must get this thing back. There is no room for negotiation. If you don't give it, we will capture everyone in your escort agency.  I don¡¯t believe you can keep this secret, one by one!¡± Gu Yezhou stepped out and said, ¡°I went alone to rescue Master Fan¡¯s daughter. When I found Master Fan¡¯s daughter, the cave was empty.  There was no one inside, but the cave was indeed blocked, but I don¡¯t know if it was built with corpses. I rescued the hostages and left with them. What I can tell you is that I didn¡¯t see any.  What package.The master's daughter also didn't have any package on her body.  Therefore, the things you are talking about must have been taken away before this.  "    "impossible!  Carp and his men all died there. Apart from them, no one else knows where they are hiding. Only those of you who go to rescue can do it, so no one else can take it away except you!  ¡ª¡ªThe surname is Gu, Fairy Aunt has interceded for you and asked me to let you off the murder of your son and brother. I obeyed, and the previous grudges between us have been wiped out.  However, this time, I was ordered to recover this thing. No matter who took it, or whether I had to chase it to the end of the world, I had to get it back. It doesn¡¯t matter how many people I kill for this.  You are very loyal to take the initiative. In fact, we already know that you rescued the hostages by yourself. We would have looked for you even if you didn't tell us.  It's best if you admit it, now hand over the things, right?  "
