The sun was shining like the sun and the blue sky was as clear as the lake without any wind. It was rather cool under the tall and dense trees of Black Tiger Mountain, but Long Xiaotian's heart was extremely restless. He paced around the house restlessly, as if making a difficult decision that was difficult to make.

Long Fei'er sat on a nearby chair as he pouted his pink lips and stared fixedly at Long Xiao Tian. His eyes followed Long Xiao Tian's figure as he moved back and forth. It was very obvious that the two of them were in a stalemate because of something.

"Fei'er, this is too dangerous. Listen to your father, go to Dingcheng and wait for your father, okay?" Long Xiao Tian, who had always been a tough guy, rarely spoke kindly in a low voice.

However, Long Fei'er didn't appreciate his kindness, "Father, you also know that it's dangerous, aren't you afraid of Fei'er worrying? Fei'er has also trained in martial arts, so let Fei'er change into men's clothing with you. Fei'er will promise not to drag you down. "

"Murong Tao is cunning and vicious. We still don't know what he'll do to our Black Tiger Army after this trip to An City. When the time comes, Father and your uncles might not even be able to protect themselves. How will they take care of you!" If it wasn't Lan Ruocheng, he would have naturally thought of a way to split up the people of Black Tiger Village. But now that Lan Ruochen had used him, and because Murong Tao had won the battle and was less wary of him, he could still just move some of the women and children away from the village. It was just that Long Fei'er had grown up with him since childhood, and refused to leave, so he insisted on following by his side. This gave him a headache.

This girl was not that old, but she was extremely quick-witted and astute. If he had her following him, he might be able to help a little, but how could he bear to have her be trapped with them.

"Father, Fei'er will definitely not cause trouble for you. Bring me with you!" Long Fei'er wasn't willing to give up no matter what. She only wanted to stay by Long Xiao Tian's side. She would rather live and die with Long Xiao Tian than live and worry for him alone in Dingcheng.

"Fei'er …" Long Xiao Tian's face was filled with helplessness. His personality was tough and he had always kept his word. Only in front of Long Fei'er, he had never been able to show off his authority as a elder and as a chief.

"Stronghold leader, someone from Young Master Lan's side has come up the mountain to seek an audience!" Someone came to report outside the door.

Long Xiao Tian's expression immediately became serious as he said in a low voice, "Invite our guest up quickly!"

Long Fei'er was still sitting motionlessly on her chair, ignoring Long Xiao Tian's signal for her to leave. When Murong Yu came in, he saw the two of them glaring at each other, unwilling to budge.

"Greetings, chief Long!" Murong Yu was extremely polite and smiled at Long Fei'er.

Long Xiaotian was surprised to see the dignified Murong Yu. He had originally thought that the person who had come was just an ordinary soldier, but who would have thought that it would be such a handsome and unfathomable man.

"Young master, please take a seat. Fei'er, go get some tea!"

Long Fei'er also rarely saw people like Mu Rong Yu. She looked at him curiously, but still obediently went out to make tea.

"I've heard that the Dragon Stronghold's chief and Ruochen are brotherly friends. However, he directly addressed me as Yu. How is the Dragon Stronghold's chief going to arrange this?" Long Xiao Tian's upright attitude was quite to Murong Yu's taste. He could tell at a glance that this was a man who would do as he said and who could be trusted.

"To be honest, Brother Yu, I'm having a headache right now. If I don't bring my family members, I'm afraid that Murong Tao won't believe me. However, taking my family members with me into danger is something I can't bear." Long Xiaotian did not hide his hesitation.

"Brother Long, it is natural. Thus, I have come here to inform brother Long that the plan that you and Ruochen have discussed has changed." Murong Yu's expression was relaxed and his tone was gentle, which somehow made Long Xiao Tian feel a little more relaxed.

"Has there been a change in the plan?" Long Xiao Tian was slightly surprised. "I'm willing to listen to the details."

In the Dragon clan, there are three thousand warriors, eight hundred women, and children. If they were all dependent on Mu Rong Tao, they would definitely become hostages, and in the future, when the war between the two armies begins, Brother Long's Black Tiger Army would definitely be sent as a vanguard. However, if they were not, with Mu Rong Tao's suspicion, he would not completely trust Brother Long's loyalty.

"That's right, I, Long, really don't want to involve women and children in danger, but I can't think of a good plan at the moment, so I'm extremely anxious."

"I have another method." Murong Yu faintly smiled and whispered into Long Xiao Tian's ear.

Long Xiao Tian's complexion improved, but he still had some doubts, "This method is feasible, but Brother Ruochen needs to work closely together to achieve it. The timing is the most important. He just lost a few days ago, can he bring out his men?"

"Don't worry about that, you can definitely do it! Murong Tao is young and full of pride, and he won many battles in a row, so he is very proud of himself. As long as we cooperate well, we can make sure that he will suffer a big loss, and you can arrange for people to move the women and children from the village to Dingcheng tonight. No matter what, we have to ensure the safety of our families, so our brothers will be willing to work hard!"

"Brother Yu is right!" Then I shall do as Brother Yu says. "

"Good, Brother Long is indeed a straightforward person. My brothers are definitely trustworthy and have a lot of combat experience. Please do not worry and cooperate with them. The outcome of this battle will depend on Brother Long. It will be alright as long as we can gain the temporary trust of Murong Tao!"

"I'll do my best!" Long Xiao Tian focused, "If anything happens to me, please tell Brother Ruo Cheng that all the small and large people in Black Tiger Camp will be asking him to take care of me in the future.

"We understand. Don't worry Brother Long, we will definitely not lose this battle!"

Murong Yu said resolutely. If it was an ordinary person who said this, perhaps Long Xiaotian wouldn't believe him, but after Murong Yu said it, he nodded his head repeatedly, and had a strange feeling that since he was the one who said it, then it would be possible. Long Xiaotian had never been like this before, where a few simple words from others could generate such a huge amount of trust in him.

"Madam, little gongzi's condition hasn't improved. We need two types of herbs, we need to buy medicine by the shore!" The doctor that accompanied Xiao Hu said after he finished his diagnosis.

Yun Sheng and company had taken the water route, which was considered smooth to begin with. However, after walking for less than five days, Little Tiger had suddenly gotten sick and was constantly getting hot. He vomited every time he ate.

Although the child was sick but did not cry or say anything, his appetite was not good. He did not want to eat, and he did not sleep well at night. The wet nurse could tell that he was very uncomfortable, but she did not know why.

The doctor said that there was a problem with his abdomen and intestines, and he had to treat it as soon as possible. Otherwise, the child would suffer, and it would be troublesome if it was delayed.

What Yun Sheng feared the most was for the children to feel uncomfortable. Watching Xiao Long sleep after eating, becoming firmer and firmer every day while Xiao Hu rapidly lost weight, she naturally felt extremely anxious. Anything the doctor said would be fine.

Their boat landed in Cao Jia Village, which was about half the size of West Water Town. Normally, there weren't many outsiders here, so when Yunsheng and company landed, it was very eye-catching. Many people were curiously sizing up this group of outsiders.

Thankfully, there was a medicine store in the town with relatively complete medicinal ingredients, as well as an old doctor attending the clinic. When Yun Shengyue asked him to help her visit the child, the diagnosis was the same as what the doctor she brought had said. She prescribed some medicine, and the doctor she brought bought a few more before they returned along the same road.

"Madam, may I ask if we need to hurry today?" The sun had set in the west, and it was already late in the morning. They had already stopped at the small pier for nearly two hours. Black Thirteen had caused everyone to pay close attention to his surroundings, so there were no abnormalities.

"Madam, let's rest here for the night before we talk. After we pass through this town, we won't be able to see him for two or three days." Before Yunsheng could make a sound, the leader of the Fisherman's Gang, Zhou Quan, softly reminded her that he was most familiar with the roads along the West River.

"Then let's rest here for the night. If there's anything that's missing from the boat, go arrange it yourself. No need to ask me." Yun Shengyue's heart was with the children, so she could not divert her attention to worry about anything else.

"Yes sir!" Everyone acted separately.

Although the Cao family town was not as prosperous as the West Water Town, and there were supposed to be some places as well, but the people in the gang did not have any sense of danger, so they felt like they were just sending off a rich person's family. Other than the two or three of them, they also did not have any luggage, so they probably did not need any special guards.

"Ashes, who do you think this lady on the boat is? Why would our old man send someone to escort us? "

"How would I know? The old man told us to send him off, so why are you asking!"

A few young men from the fishing gang, unwilling to be left alone, went ashore and brought them to a small inn. There were not many people in the inn, and only a few ordinary customers sitting in the corner eating with their heads lowered.

"Yo, aren't you Bao Dating from our gang? No matter what, you don't know the background of that lady. She's so beautiful, and she's so young, yet she gave birth to a pair of twin sons. How amazing!" As for the guards at home, they look amazing! "

"What's there to be proud of? In my opinion, it's just looking at him might not be enough. Otherwise, why would we have to send out twenty of our brothers!" A swarthy man said unwillingly.

"I say, Old Zhong, you better not be convinced. Anyway, I feel like they're definitely not ordinary people."

"That's true. If it's an average person, we can go back by the water once we get to the south bay. But the old Sect Master even wants us to escort him by land. That's very important. Don't be careless!"

"This whole trip is very peaceful, they didn't bring anything with them, it's just one woman and two children, are they still afraid of being robbed? Seriously!"

"Anyway, it's better to be careful. Let's eat something and go back quickly. It's rare for the old Sect Master to arrange for us to do something. If we can't even handle such a small matter properly, we brothers shouldn't be able to do anything on the surface!"

"Little Yellow Fish is right!" "Come, let's drink this wine and head back to the ship!"

On a hot day, the commoners slept a little later than usual. There were a lot of people wearing black on the riverbank, and two men in black were leisurely strolling along the riverbank. As they walked, they were chatting about something, and it was getting closer to Yunsheng and her boat.

"How is it? Do you see anything? "

Judging from the depth of the boat entering the water, it should not have cargo on it. According to what the boatmen said, there are only two or three family members on board, yet they are being escorted by so many people. They must not be ordinary people.

"Yes, we've been here for so many days. Only the people on these two ships meet the requirements, so let's send a message to Young Master right away."

"Good!" I hope that the person you want is one that we have been guarding for so many days in vain! This is so boring and tiring! " One of them stretched and yawned.

"You think this is tiring? If you ask me, this errand is much safer than real combat!"

"Brat, you are afraid of death! "Brother, I'd rather go to war and make a hero in this chaotic world, do you understand?" The one on the right raised his head and spoke with his chest puffed up.

The person beside him laughed and said, "You're a hero? I think you're a dog! Do you see the woman with the baby who just got off the boat? Do they look like the people in the painting that the Young Master sent over? "

"I think it looks a little similar, but I'm wearing a cloak so I can't see it clearly. "I'd rather miss it than let it go, just report this matter to the sect. Otherwise, it's not good for us to be on friendly terms. You were the one who misjudged the people on that boat the day before yesterday!"

What he wants us to pay attention to is a man and a woman with children. The man and woman look at the painting, and the man and woman look like a pair, if it's not for the fact that the woman he likes has run away with another man, why else would he be so nervous, making us keep an eye on this passing boat day and night.

"I don't care about that much. I just hope they won't leave tonight. When the sun rises tomorrow morning, find a way to get a better look at the people on the boat. Hopefully, they are the people that young master is looking for."

"Hmm, do you want to board the ship and have a look?"

"Are you stupid? Didn't you see that woman clearly? Did you not see the men by her side? They're all experts. If you want to board the ship to throw your life away, then I'm not accompanying you!"

"Isn't that what I said? "Forget it, just report it like that. After all, they will be leaving Cao family's town tomorrow. What happens after will have nothing to do with us!"

"That's right! You're finally enlightened! "You stay here for now, I'll go get some food, and we won't be able to sleep well tonight."

"Alright, remember to bring two jugs of good wine!"

One of them left in a hurry while the other sat down with his back against a big rock. Although there were people on duty, they were not aware of their conversation and didn't know that anyone else was watching them.
