Chapter 977 I saw it many years ago

The yards around here look pretty good. When they first came, they also wanted to rent a yard here, but unfortunately no one was renting it out, so they had to settle for the next best thing.

Just as I was about to leave, I suddenly felt a shock all over my body.

I only heard a voice coming from the other side of the wall, "General, we have eaten the New Year's Eve dinner, and the New Year is over. Should we go back to the camp?"

The sound was not loud, and if she didn't have good hearing, she wouldn't have heard it at all.

She instinctively leaned against the wall and put her ear against it, trying to continue listening to the sound.

All I heard was a kind and friendly voice that could not be refuted: "It doesn't matter. We have only been here for a day. We just want to see how the people are doing this year. I have arranged everything in the camp. I am not afraid. Why should you be afraid?"

Only to hear that voice say again: "The general's status is too precious..."

Zhou Guo couldn't hear what was said next. Wasn't this her uncle's voice? ? ?

Why is he here?

My mind got hot at that moment and I didn't have time to think about anything. I tiptoed to climb up the wall and looked towards the direction where the sound came from.

“Who is it??!!”

As soon as this head appeared, it was discovered.

An arrow shot towards her from nowhere, but fortunately she was agile and dodged it.

Then Zhou Guo looked towards the next yard and stared at a group of people.

The little head popped up, and Zhou Dacang thought he was seeing things at first glance. But when he looked closely, he was almost scared to death and instinctively shouted, "Stop!"

The general quickly stretched out his hand and ordered not to shoot.

Zhou Guo first looked at Zhou Dacang and smiled, then instinctively looked to the side. They were also easy to recognize. At a glance, he could tell who the so-called general was. The one in the middle was calm and composed, and he was intimidating without being angry. He was obviously a big shot.

Then her mouth slowly opened wide and she was stunned!

This person, she, she, she has seen him before. Over the years, she has met many capable people, but there are very few who can make people unforgettable at first sight. This uncle is one of them.

This was when she first started selling mushrooms. She slept in a dilapidated temple on Chengding Mountain. She felt that the people she met that night were not simple. Could they be so simple?

She and General Xu had met many years ago!!!

General Xu looked at Zhou Guo's little head and didn't recognize him for a moment, so he asked Zhou Dacang, "Why, do you know him?"

Zhou Dacang knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "I hope the general will forgive me. This is my niece, Zhou Guo. I don't know why I am here?"

When these words were spoken, everyone around was stunned. They looked at the little head popping out of the wall and were speechless for a long time.

"This is Zhou Guo?!!"

General Xu's eyes sparkled as he looked at Zhou Guo. Seeing that little head, he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. He told Zhou Da Cang to stand up, waved at Zhou Guo, and said, "Nannan, it's okay. Come here. They don't dare to hurt you. If anyone touches a hair on your body, I will never let him go!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the dense crowd of archers that appeared on the wall retreated quickly.

After hearing what he said, Zhou Guo saw the dense arrows coming out from the walls. She felt something was wrong and broke out in a cold sweat on her back. If her uncle hadn't shouted in time, wouldn't she have been shot into a hedgehog?

Subconsciously, he looked at Zhou Dacang standing beside him.

Zhou Dacang nodded helplessly.

Zhou Guo then jumped onto the top of the wall, and without thinking, he leaped into the yard next to him. After a few jumps, he reached the next yard.

Face to face with a group of men.

A group of old men were stunned. Although they had heard from Zhou Dacang that this girl knew some Kung Fu, they did not expect that she was so skilled. She was better than many young generals in the camp!

Zhou Guo walked over obediently under Zhou Dacang's sullen face and called out obediently, "Uncle, General."

Zhou Da Cang glared at her fiercely, then apologized to General Xu, "General, my niece is young and ignorant, she doesn't know the seriousness of the matter, and she is very stubborn. I hope you will show some mercy!"

General Xu waved his hand and said, "Don't say anything. This is my daughter. I have wanted to meet her for a long time. I never thought that we would meet in a place like this. This is really fate!"

Zhou Guo blinked her eyes. It seemed that the general didn't recognize her.

A round-faced man next to her looked at her for a few seconds, frowned, then relaxed his brows and said to the general with a smile: "General, your fate was decided many years ago. You had met before you met General Zhou."

"Oh?" General Xu was surprised when he heard this. He looked at Zhou Guo without saying anything.

There was another square-faced man beside her. He raised his eyebrows, pointed at her and shouted, "Ah, I remember now. This is the young man selling mushrooms. We met him in the dilapidated temple on Chengding Mountain. Isn't he?"

The last question was asked to Zhou Guo.

After he said this, General Xu glared at Zhou Guo and looked him up and down without daring to recognize him.

Zhou Guo had no choice but to nod and admit, "Yes, you uncles have a really good memory. I'm such a poor girl, but you still remember it so clearly after all these years."

Several people looked her up and down in amazement, saying, "We haven't seen each other for a few years, and you've grown so big. This is incredible!"

General Xu also remembered it and became even happier. He laughed loudly and looked at Zhou Guo with a smile in his eyes. "I didn't expect that the fate between us is so deep. I want to thank you. You are much more capable than my right-hand men and generals who have fought in many battles. Without you, all of us, these hundreds of thousands of troops, would have starved to death on the front line!"

He held her wrist affectionately and came to sit beside the stone table. "It's just that, on New Year's Day, why are you here instead of staying in the North? Are you here to see your uncle?"

Before she could answer, he brought all the food on the table to her, including snacks, candied fruits and fresh fruits. "Come, eat. You look thinner. This is not good. You need to eat more and grow some fat on your face. It will be more beautiful if you are white and plump."

Seeing the general's happy look, Zhou Dacang finally let go of his heavy heart. As he let go, he felt a chill on his back. It turned out that he was sweating from fear. This little girl was too brave. She dared to climb over anyone's wall.

The square-faced man next to him poked him, with a look of mockery and gloating on his face.

Zhou Dacang rolled his eyes at him.

Zhou Guo subconsciously turned his head to look at Zhou Dacang and replied, "General, I went south in the autumn before the New Year..."

So she told him roughly why she came and what she had done along the way.

When Zhou Dacang heard that she wanted to try her luck and come to spend the New Year with him, he felt sorry for the child. He was so far away at the front line, and he didn't even send a message when he came. Maybe he wouldn't come. Wouldn't he have waited in vain?

General Xu also said gently: "Then you should write to us. If we knew you were coming, we would have come a long time ago and would not let you spend the New Year alone."

With just one sentence, Zhou Dacang was replaced by us.
