Liu Man was taken aback: "This subordinate has never asked about this."

Yun Shang has lowered her head again: "Go and ask, it's just some letters to report safety, even if it is delivered by a secret guard, I am also very careful about the words and sentences because I am afraid that the letters will reveal some information that should not be revealed. , nothing serious."

"Ask how they pass on the news, and find a way to send the letter to our hidden piles in the border city of Xia Kingdom. They know how to deal with it."

"At that time, I will re-envelope the letter and mark it on the envelope. If someone opens the letter, the hidden stump can be found. When I left the border before, I left a few spare letters there. If someone Take apart the letter I sent over, and let them replace it with a spare letter."

Liu Man nodded, and stepped back to inquire about the news.

As soon as Yunshang had finished her lunch, she had already inquired about the news: "The shopkeeper of the inn said that there are many caravans coming and going, so we can ask the caravans coming and going to help take the letters out. If we need it, we can ask him to help Find a familiar caravan and bring the letter there."

Yun Chang nodded: "Alright."

After finding the way to deliver the letter, Yun Shang sat aside and put all the letters into envelopes, and sealed them carefully: "You call someone who can write the Yelang language, and write the address and address of the hidden pile on the envelope." Name, send it to the shopkeeper."

Liu Man took the letter and went out. Yun Chang sat at the table for a while, then stood up, went to the window and opened it to look outside.

Along the way, the scenery of Urho City was quite different from all the cities she passed through.

Probably because it was built in the desert, the houses in Urho City are all built with yellow sand, without roofs, and at a glance, they are all khaki.

It's just that although the color of the house is very monotonous, other things, such as the color of the fabric of the clothes, such as the paper pasted on the windows, and the felt hanging at the door of the street shop, are all very colorful.

There are small vendors setting up stalls on both sides of the street. The people coming and going on the street are dressed differently and come from different places. Perhaps it is because the language of the cities in Yelang Kingdom is also somewhat different. The people who come and go talk to the vendors. Sometimes, some even have to talk and gesture.

Although Urho City can be regarded as a border city of Yelang Kingdom, it is only because it is surrounded by deserts, easy to defend and difficult to attack, the life of the people in the city does not seem to be greatly affected.

Whether it is a vendor or a passer-by on the street, none of them have the anxious feeling that is unique to the faces of the people in the border city.

"Master, the shopkeeper has sent someone to deliver the letter." Liu Man's voice sounded behind him: "There has also been news from the two caravans behind us, saying that they have sent the letter to the person who suspected us to be Xia Guo spies." The caravan has been held up, and they shouldn't be able to enter the city until we leave tomorrow."

Yun Chang nodded, but suddenly said: "You said earlier that eagles cannot be used to deliver letters in this city. How did you deliver the message to the two hidden posts of the caravan behind?"

Liu Man lowered his head and said: "The signal fireworks are used. There are many caravans coming and going in this Uerhe city. Most of the caravan stewards are relatively wealthy. After several days of trekking in the desert, they finally came to this city. Most of them will try all kinds of ways to amuse themselves, and there are quite a few people who set off fireworks every night, so the subordinates mix in and find a place to set off the signal fireworks."

"The two caravans behind received the signal fireworks. After finishing the matter, they sent a person into the city ahead of time to report the progress."

Yun Shang nodded: "It's hard work."

The two of them were talking when they heard a faint commotion.

Both of them were attracted by the change, turned their heads to look out the window, and saw a lot of soldiers in armor coming towards the street.

The movement on the street has attracted the attention of many people, and some people have already started talking about it.

Liu Man listened intently for a while, and then said in a low voice: "It is said that someone who is suspected of Xia Guo's spy has sneaked into the city, and the soldiers are checking every inn."

Yun Shang turned her head and exchanged glances with Liu Man.

Liu Man turned around quickly: "This subordinate will make arrangements now."

The soldiers were divided into two groups, one group entered an inn on the street, and the other group came towards this side.

Yun Chang stood up, and as soon as she turned around, she saw Sui An walking in quickly from the door. Sui An was young and heard the news, but there was no panic on her face, so she walked quickly to Yun Chang : "Are the soldiers coming to investigate?"

Yun Chang nodded and asked Sui An to sit at the table.

Sui An blinked at Yun Chang, smiled and said, "Don't panic, look at me."

There was a noise from downstairs, it should be that soldiers entered the inn, and after a while, there was the sound of going upstairs.

Yun Chang had just finished eating, and the cups, bowls, and dishes on the table had not been taken away, so Sui An directly picked up the bowl and chopsticks, pretending to be eating.

Yun Shang took another pair of chopsticks out of the chopstick cage on the table, and stood behind Sui An.

The door was opened, and two soldiers came in from the door. As soon as they entered the door, they saw a middle-aged nanny who was about forty years old serving a teenager who was eating. There is still a piece of meat between the chopsticks on the table, as if it is serving the young man.

The nanny turned her back to the door, as if she didn't know anyone was in the room at all, her hands never slowed down. Instead, the young man raised his head and looked towards the door with a surprised expression on his face.

"Hey, turn around." The soldier frowned, a little displeased.

The young man quickly reached out to touch the nanny who was still serving him vegetables, and looked at the soldier at the door with apologetic expression: "I'm sorry, my nanny can't hear or speak, I don't know soldiers Grandpa is here."

The nun was pulled by the young man, and finally turned around, and saw the two soldiers standing by the door, who seemed to be startled, and the vegetables on the chopsticks fell down in a panic. Put down the chopsticks, raise your hand to gesture something.

"What are you gesticulating? I don't understand." The soldier frowned, and looked straight at the young man: "Hey, young master, where did you come from?"

Sui An smiled: "Changji City."

The two soldiers whispered a few words before continuing to ask him: "How old are you this year?"

"Nine years old."

"Nine years old?" The soldier frowned: "We just asked, in your caravan, you are the person in charge? Why did your adults let a child like you go out to run a business? You are not afraid of anything. ?”
