The patriarch thought about it and asked Shaokang again:
"When you saw Ahn, didn't you ask her?"
"No, no!"
"What did you say to Ahn at that time? How did you know that Ahn is willing to marry you?"
"Isn't it idle that day? I was wandering around the city walls of Wangmangguo alone and saw her collecting her from the wild with a basket on her back. Then, I followed her to where she lived."
"I found her living alone with her children, and I realized that her man was dead."
"I asked her if she would marry me, but she smiled and didn't say anything! Although she didn't say it, I knew that she was willing. I just looked at her eyes and knew that she was willing to marry me!"
"When I said I was the Fangfeng clan, her face turned pale, and then, she said she was the daughter of the patriarch of Wang Mang Kingdom!"
"We both have the surname Feng!"
"I was confused at that time and didn't know how to return to the conference-the meeting was our station."
"Now that I know that the same surname can get married, I am here to marry her. She will definitely be very happy when she knows this news."
The patriarch's brows frowned even more, and he felt that there were too many things that were wrong in Shaokang's words.
Collecting alone in the wild with a child on his back?
When collecting outside, you usually have to be together, and the children are all in the tribe. How could they collect them alone in the wild with their children on their backs?
...
The next day at noon.
Carrying a bamboo raft along a small river on the rays bank, the patriarch and his group came to the city wall of Wangmangguo.
The city walls of Wang Mangguo are piled up with soil, not high in height, but are more than ten meters wide.
There are many thatched huts on the city walls.
The patriarch looked at the city wall and sighed:
"This city wall has been built for a long time. When I was young, this city wall was still under construction. It was not until more than ten years ago that it was truly completed. Before that, I don't know how long it had been built."
The city wall was broken at the river channel, and there was a thick wood water gate on the river channel. Through this water gate, the six members of the Fangfeng family came to Wangmangguo City.
This river is a waterway.
"There are a lot fewer people, and there is not the excitement I saw last time!" Li sighed.
The last time I attended the party, because I carried too many items and the wind and waves in Lei Ze were strong at that time, the Fengfeng family drove the cattle and did not take the water route by land.
There are many other tribes who come with bamboo rafts and canoes.
At that time, the pier in this city seemed very lively.
At this time, I don’t know if it was because of noon that not only did there be no one on the river, but there was no one on the shore.
"It's strange, even the people guarding the city gates and the docks are gone." The patriarch murmured in a low voice.
In the past, people were guarding the city gates and the docks, but today they were unable to see them alone.
"You lead the way and go to where Ahn lives first!" said the patriarch to the anxious Shaokang.
Tied the bamboo raft at the pier, and several people were assigned to carry the items on the bamboo raft, and then followed Shaokang to a place in the city.
The more you left, the more frowned.
This place is not right, why is it getting more and more biased?
Even if the daughter of the patriarch Wang Mang Kingdom did not live in a big house in the middle of the city with the patriarch, she shouldn't live in such a remote place.
When Shaokang pointed to a place in front and said "arrived", everyone was shocked.
Is this what people live in?
Is this where the daughter of the head of Wang Mang Kingdom should live?
It is also by the river, but it is not as cleaned by people like the dock.
There are overgrown here, and there are many broken pottery pieces and other domestic waste piled up on the shore. There are also many dead branches and leaves, as well as feces, tattered fur, etc. floating in the water. You can smell a foul smell from afar.
This is a place where people in the city deal with domestic waste!
And right next to the garbage dump, there is a small shack.
The shack is very short, and it is difficult for people to arch their waists and go in.
This shack has no pillars, it is completely made of irregular branches and some fur.
At the door of the shack, a broken pottery cauldron and two dirty pottery beans were placed in a mess.
Six people came to the shack.
There was no movement in the shack.
No one!
Shaokang stretched his head and looked into the shack, then said in confusion: "Where will you go if you are not here?"
The patriarch frowned. Since he learned about Ahn's situation, his frown had never been untied.
After he looked at the surrounding environment, he grabbed the anxious Shaokang:
"Don't look for it anymore, let's go directly to find the great witch from Wang Mangguo!"
Li asked strangely: "Ahn is the daughter of the patriarch. Why don't you look for the patriarch? "
The patriarch said with a gloomy face:
"Ahen is the daughter of the patriarch of Wang Mang Country. No matter how much he ignores his bloodline, he cannot live in such a place."
"And in Wangmang Kingdom, the patriarch of Wangmang Kingdom would not dare to give his daughter a better place to live, but it would be the Great Witch!"
...
Leaving the riverside, six people walked towards the middle of the city.
There is the place where the great witches and clan leaders of Wang Mang Kingdom live.
Soon, we arrived at a square.
There are crowds of people in the square.
It turned out that I couldn't see people all the way, and everyone gathered here.
These people were silent, stretched their heads and stared at the high platform in the middle of the square.
It was a simple artificial earth platform that was temporarily piled up.
An old man wearing a feather crown and a gorgeous robe was standing on the platform, singing and dancing with an exaggerated expression.
And behind him was a wooden pillar, and a woman was tied to it.
The woman lowered her head and shed tears, looking at the child on her chest.
On her chest, a little girl was tied together.
The little girl didn't know if it was because of her lack of strength, and she didn't cry. She just stretched out her little hands and stroked her mother's face, wiping away the tears from her mother's face.
And around the woman, there are a lot of...
Firewood!
"Ahn!"
Shaokang exclaimed, his face was shocked and frightened, his eyes turned red in an instant, and he immediately ran towards the high platform.
The patriarch grabbed him like lightning at a speed that was numerous times faster than usual, and he did not know how old he was.
The patriarch roared in a low voice:
"Do you want to die?"
"The great witch is holding a sacrifice, can it be interrupted at will?"
"Yes...but that's Ahn!"
The patriarch narrowed his eyes, looked at the countless people surrounding the platform in the square, then looked at the great witch on the platform, and said coldly:
"I know... don't worry, there is a way to save Ahn!"
The patriarch asked everyone to remove the various items they were carrying and said to Lulu and Li:
"In the current situation, it's useless to have too many people. You two will move these things onto the bamboo raft and wait on the bamboo raft."
"These were originally gifts to the patriarch of Wang Mang, but now they can be saved!"
Then he said to Shaokang, Sang and Manniu:
"The priest of the great witch will stop later. I will go up to the high platform. You will stay in the audience. Don't talk, wait for me to greet you!"
"Especially Shaokang, remember, don't yell. Once you yell, Ahn will be dead!"
Chapter completed!
