At this critical moment, a soldier who looked like a manager had a silent face and signaled the soldiers to take back the spear in his hands. He looked not old, but there was a bit of vicissitudes in his eyes. The soldier looked at Yan Zhi fearlessly and asked, “Who are you?”
“Can’t you see anyone?” Yan Zhi’s expression was still very cold, and a sternity was highlighted in his voice. But the soldier was unmoved. His eyes were calm and determined. “This place has been blocked. Recently, some people always want to pretend to be an army and walk over here. Show me your token.”
The implication was that the soldier had already explained it very clearly. He suspected that they were the ones who wanted to escape and that they had to look at their tokens to tell the truth of the matter.
When Huang Zifu was almost injured just now, Yan Zhi was already very angry. Now, they were intercepted again, and were asked by a little kid who didn’t seem to be old to see the token. Yan Zhi’s anger rose sharply.
As if feeling the dissatisfaction in Yan Zhi’s heart, Huang Zifu immediately stood up behind Yan Zhi. She stretched out one hand, stabilized Yan Zhi’s arm, and looked at the old child with his eyes fixedly with a smile on his face.
“What’s your name?”
Huang Zifu’s voice was very gentle, but the soldier didn’t seem to follow up, but said with a bit of arrogance: “Does my age have anything to do with this matter? Show it to the token quickly.”
Huang Zifu looked at the soldier’s slightly upturned mouth, as if he was dissatisfied and disgusted with other people asking about his age. The smile on the corner of his mouth became deeper, but his love for the child was deeper. She took out a round jade pendant from her arms, waved to the soldier, and said, “Then you come down and get it.”
Seeing the jade pendant in Huang Zifu’s hand, the soldier frowned and said, “You want a token!”
“That’s it.” Huang Zifu was not angry or annoyed, but just reiterated it again with patience. Feeling the friendship in Huang Zifu’s tone, the soldier hesitated for a moment and slowly stepped forward. He took the jade pendant from Huang Zifu’s hand and felt a little suspicious, but when he didn’t know the truth or the false, the soldier didn’t know what to say. I had to go back and forth, constantly looking at Huang Zifu’s jade pendant.
Yan Zhi, who was standing on the side, really couldn’t stand the child’s pretentious appearance, and he looked really ignorant. He said with a cold voice on the side: “Be careful. This is a very important thing!”
As if he was poked into a disgusting place, the soldier immediately became a little chaotic. He immediately returned the jade pendant to Huang Zifu and said:”What a broken thing? Do you pretend to be a token if you want to take a piece of broken jade?! I won’t let you go!”
As he said that, the soldier immediately took a few steps back and raised the spear in his hand. And the people behind him also raised their weapons because of the soldiers’ movements.
Huang Zifu was still not angry at this time, but in fact there was still a smile on the corner of her mouth. She thought this child was interesting, but at the same time she felt a little melancholy.
Just as everyone was in a stalemate, the sound of footsteps came sparsely in the room next to them. When Huang Zifu turned around, she saw Gu Lixi who had not seen for more than a year.
