The next day, the atmosphere in Changle County was a bit more solemn than usual.
People in the county also heard about the loss of two young Kunlun slaves by the cannibals.
Regarding this matter, let alone what everyone thinks in their hearts, they will definitely not admit it on the surface.
After all, Apu is Luo Yong's subordinate, and it is against the law to abduct other people's slaves.
If this matter is not done well, their county magistrate Luo will also have to suffer.
If his position as county magistrate is removed, Tell them where to find such a good county magistrate.
"Those two Kunlun slaves obviously ran away on their own.
Why are they trying to fight with Apu?
Is it because he is also a Kunlun slave?"
Most of the people in Changle had this attitude.
These words were heard by those big cannibals, and they immediately stopped: "If he hadn't kidnapped our Kunlun slave, why would he be hiding now?"
"You big cannibals are so ferocious.
If it were me, I would have to hide."
"What do you mean?"
"Hey, why do you want to beat someone?"
"Whatever you do, don't do it."
"The policeman is coming.
The policeman is coming."
"Oh, it's gone." "" Compared with the officials and their families who traveled here, the local people in Changle County were much calmer when faced with this kind of thing, and they were not too frightened when faced with cannibalism.
Even every household is more vigilant than usual.
Their children are no longer allowed to play around in the city and outside the city.
If they see other people’s children running around, they will inevitably scold them and tell them to go back quickly.
Family, other than that, life should be lived as it should be, burdens should be shouldered, and business should be done.
Anyway, we should not let these things delay our livelihood.
The weather is getting colder, and autumn is about to begin.
The tax season is coming soon, and after autumn comes winter.
Now, save more rice, food, money, and silk, so that you can survive the winter.
Those big cannibals are still looking for people everywhere.
The people in the county are busy with their own business, but they are joking less than usual.
When they see those big cannibals walking on the street, their faces will inevitably show some vigilance.
That afternoon, several tenant farmers from the government field came into the city and made a lot of noise at the gate of the county government office.
They said that other people's corn had already set ears, so why did their corn not set well?
It must be because the government gave them Something went wrong with the corn seeds.
These tenants have never planted corn before, and this is the first year.
It is inevitable that they will encounter some problems during the planting process.
Luo Yong often goes over to take a look when he has nothing to do.
Luo Yong also knew the two families who came today.
At the beginning of spring, the weather was warm but still cold.
To be on the safe side, these two families decided to plant corn later than other families.
So at this time, the corn of other families was gone.
It's done, and his family still has to wait a little longer.
Why did they come to their door today?
Luo Yong guessed that it probably had something to do with Apu and the others.
After last night, the three of Apu went into hiding.
Luo Yong sent people to the cement workshop, but they could not find anyone.

The workers in the cement workshop could not tell where they went.
But two city dwellers who worked there secretly told a policeman they knew that two young Kunlun slaves had indeed gone to the cement workshop to find Apu last night.
At this time, Luo Yong walked to the gate of the county government office and saw a tenant farmer winking at him, so he understood in his heart.
Luo dismissed the troubled tenant farmers with a few words, saying that it was still early in the season, and asked them to continue to carefully serve the corn in the field.
If it still fails to bud after a while, he would take someone over to have a look.
On the other hand, they secretly arranged for a few alert officers to secretly follow these tenants out of the city and protect them secretly.
That night, when the city police officers were patrolling the night, Apu and the others secretly changed into the police officers' clothes, took advantage of the darkness to mix among the police officers, and then entered the county government office with them.
"How did you get yourself into such a mess?"
Luo Yong couldn't help but ask him when he saw Apu.
Based on Apu's current situation, with Luo Yong by his side, there would always be no worries about the future.
He is a smart and steady person with a strong and responsible personality.
Luo Yong also hopes that he can become his right-hand man one day.
If those two Kunlun slaves were related to Apu, they would be willing to help him no matter how much money he asked for.
Nowadays, the liquor in their county is selling well, and they make a lot of money every day.
Why?
As for getting such a land now.
Apu didn't say anything.
He just bent his knees and knelt on the ground in front of Luo Yong.
He gently leaned over and pressed his cheek against his knees.
Big tears rolled down on Luo Yong's robe.
A small dark water stain appeared.
At this moment, he felt sad and guilty.
His people were hunted and traded like animals.
He was lucky enough to be rescued and followed this amazing young man.
Before he could repay his kindness, today he fell into such a passive state because of his actions. situation "What's the use of talking about this now?
What are your plans for the future, but you have to go back to Chang'an City."
Chang'an City is probably the only place where those big cannibals dare not act arrogantly.
"Instead of going to Chang'an City, I plan to take them back to our hometown."
Apu said.
They cannot go to Chang'an City.
Those big cannibals will not let them go easily.
The big cannibals will neither allow those who kidnapped their slaves to live in peace, nor will they allow the Kunlun slaves to live like ordinary people in the Tang Dynasty.
They will only It can be a commodity.
Maybe Luo Yong has a way to protect him, but in this matter, I'm afraid there is no other way except turning to those big families for help.
He didn't want things to develop like this.
Yesterday afternoon, when he was standing on the side of the road talking to several Dunhuang merchants who came to buy cement, he happened to meet those big food caravans driving Kunlun slaves to Changle County.
Among the Kunlun slaves, there were two young men who were members of Apu's tribe.
They recognized Apu, and Apu recognized them both, but neither of them spoke.
The merchants who were buying cement bargained hard.
Apu couldn't walk for a while, so he finally finalized the deal.
It was already evening, and the city was under curfew.
He originally planned to meet again early tomorrow morning.
Luo Yong discussed the matter.
After all, these people were staying in Changle County.
If they didn't stay for a day or two, they probably wouldn't leave.

Never thought that these two black teenagers would escape and find him that night.
Just after the two sides exchanged a few words, there began to be movement in the county.
When those big cannibals saw Apu during the day, they felt They were a little surprised, how could a Kunlun slave still talk about business with people like this?
There was no slave there, he was clearly a steward, so after he was lost, their first thought was to look for him in the cement workshop.
At this point, it was too late for Apu to send the person back quietly.
Moreover, what made him feel very painful was that the two young Kunlun slaves brought him news from the clan.
It was said that the cannibals were constantly expanding to the outside world and eroding the river bank where they lived.
Many tribes there have quietly disappeared.
The people in those tribes have either died or become slaves, and their tribes cannot last long.
Apu is the eldest son of the chief and the next tribal leader.
He originally planned to learn a lot of knowledge here and then go back to strengthen his tribe, but now it seems that their tribe can no longer wait for that day.
"I want to go back."
Apu raised his moist, dark face and looked at Luo Yong and said, his eyes heavy and firm.
"Can you cross the Western Region controlled by the Great Ogre?"
After getting along with each other for such a long time, Luo Yong could roughly deduce that Apu's hometown should be in the Nile River Basin, which is quite close to the Arabian Peninsula.
The cannibals often go to the black tribes in that area to capture people and bring them back to serve as slave.
From Changle County to the Nile River Basin, the road is not only long, but also has to cross deserts and Gobis, and even pass through large areas of food.
How can these few people do it?
Apu said, "I can."
Even if he died on the road, it would be better than doing nothing and letting his tribe perish miserably.
Luo Yong put his hand on his shoulder: "Okay, I will help you prepare in the next few days."
At this moment, Luo Yong felt heavy in his heart.
It was a very lucky thing for him to be Lishi Luo Sanlang in this life.
His family is living well now, and there is no need to worry that they will be slaughtered like wild beasts. and trafficking.
Going back may very well be a road of no return for Apu, but he must do so.
In the next few days, the atmosphere in the city was still tense, and the cannibals who had lost their Kunlun slaves were still looking for him everywhere.
They contacted another large cannibal caravan that originally lived in Changle County and asked them to help them find people.
Those people seemed to agree, but they didn't seem to be active.
In the past few days, Luo Yong had been preparing supplies for Apu and the others, and at the same time had people give the two black teenagers more nutrition.
Their physical condition was too weak, and it was hard to imagine how they could cross the desert again with such physical conditions.
But they have to leave.
Apu and the others may still have the possibility to stay, but these two teenagers absolutely cannot.
They are runaway slaves, and this time the matter is so big.
Once they are captured, those big cannibals will Their lives will never be spared.
"Take these two pills.
If the wounds on their bodies are suppurating, feed them one pill."
Considering the long and arduous journey they were about to face, Luo Yong took the few anti-inflammatory pills he had left.
Give Apu two pills from the medicine.
"Here."
Apu carefully took the pill.
When he first arrived in Xipo Village, he was very weak.
Luo Yong took such a small pill and saved his life.
"Dashi's national power is just strong.
Not only are they strong now, they will continue to be strong in the next few decades and continue to expand outwards.
With the power of your tribe, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist.

After finding your tribe, they will still be strong.
Let’s find a way to bring them to Datang.”
The current great food crisis is due to the unprecedented unity in the country during the reign of Mohammed Allah, and the national strength is also booming.
In a few decades, their power will continue to expand eastward, and with the power of the Tang Dynasty, which continues to expand westward, Sooner or later, there will be a collision.
To resist such a powerful nation with the strength of a tribe is obviously a mantis trying to defeat the chariot.
"I know."
In the face of such a disparity in power, no matter how much hatred and anger you feel in your heart, you can only choose to avoid it.
As long as you can leave a trace of fire, you may be able to return to your homeland in the future.
After everyone is dead, then there is really nothing.
That's all that's left.
"This is a grain seed.
If you carry it with you, it will sprout green buds in spring and grow into branches.
When the green buds grow to about a foot high, cut them off, cut them into two or three pieces, and insert them into the soil. , pour some clean water, and as long as the roots can grow smoothly, you will be able to harvest in four months.
This food grows in the mud and likes sunny and dry land."
As Luo Yong spoke, he took out two sweet potatoes from his arms and put them in Apu's hand.
All this is a painful disaster for Apu, but it is also an opportunity for Luo Yong to cover up others' eyes and secretly take out the sweet potato seeds.
"This is it."
Apu looked at Luo Yong with confusion in his eyes.
"When you come back to the Tang Dynasty, take this with you and offer it to the Khan of Heaven."
Luo Yong held Apu's hands and asked him to hold on to the two sweet potatoes: "It can buy you shelter. ”gd1806102:
