Chapter 379: Two Loyal Men

Chapter 379: Two Loyal and Brave Family

Lu Yi: "Three eyes?"

Zhou Shuyi: "Leopard God?"

Hu Laojiu: "Witch?"

What is this all about?

The three of them looked at each other...

Seeing the reactions of the three people, the shop owner's expectant look suddenly dimmed.

"It's the three-eyed leopard demon woman!"

"Looking at you guys, you must have escaped from Qingzhou City ahead of time, and you have no idea what's going on, right?"

The shopkeeper's casual remark actually spoke the truth.

Today is their sixth day heading east since leaving the city.

Lu You sent them out of the city on the first night, killed Hui Lantu the next day, and left with Zuo Yunfeng.

That afternoon, the Yanzhou army arrived and began to capture Jin soldiers as prisoners, and then the news about the witch spread.

On the fourth day, Lu You's portrait was placed in front of Wu Quanwen, and Wen Chengjie and others began to think of a way to break the impasse.

On the fifth day, the body of the fake Lu You was found cremated. At the same time, in order to prove that the witch was dead, Wen Chengjie sent the arranged storyteller out of the city overnight.

Today is the sixth day. After traveling for half a day and a night, the storyteller has finally arrived ahead of them.

This distance was actually not long, but because of the injuries of Wen Chengbo and Zhou Shuyi, they walked too slowly in the previous two days.

But even so, because Qingzhou City was sealed off for two days after they left, they were still ahead of the average person.

Even if there were people traveling with him on the official road, they were all people from the east of Qingzhou City.

They only knew that there was a war in Qingzhou City, but they didn't know what exactly happened.

Wen Chengjie arranged for people to spread the news, exaggerating and demonizing Lu You, and he only arranged for people to spread the news in county towns and other places with large crowds of people.

So up to now, Lu Yi and others have not received any detailed information except for the words "Qingzhou is in great danger" shouted by the postman when he reported it.

But even so, Lu Yi's face had become solemn.

For some reason, after he heard about the three-eyed leopard god witch, his originally calm mind suddenly began to become confused.

"no……"

Hu Laojiu looked at the shopkeeper in confusion.

"What is this thing called the Three Eyes and the Leopard God you mentioned?"

"The three-eyed leopard god and the demon woman are not separate entities; they refer to one person," the shopkeeper explained patiently.

"According to the storyteller, the victory in the Qingzhou battle was thanks to the help of a demon girl who was born with three eyes and could command a group of leopards."

"In Qingzhou City, they are going to build a temple for that evil woman and confer her the title of Qingzhou's patron saint."

As the boss was speaking, he noticed that the faces of the three people in front of him had all changed.

"Xiaoyi..."

Zhou Shuyi nervously raised her hand and tried to hold Lu Yi's arm, but Lu Yi waved her hand away.

"Why do you want to build a temple?" Lu Yi asked the shopkeeper, suppressing the trembling in his voice.

"He's dead. Otherwise, why would there be a temple built for a living person?" the shop owner replied casually while making sesame cakes.

"You're talking nonsense!" Hu Laojiu stepped forward and grabbed the shop owner's collar: "How could she die?"

Hu Laojiu had an untidy beard and a fierce aura about him. He was also carrying a bow and arrow, which immediately scared the shopkeeper.

"That's not what I said, that's what the storyteller over there said!"

Lu Yi stepped forward, pulled Hu Laojiu's hand away, then turned around and walked towards the storyteller in the distance.

"Xiao Yi!" Zhou Shuyi followed closely, but Lu Yi held her wrist with his hand.

"Don't worry." Lu Yi looked at Zhou Shuyi, and a smile appeared on his pale face: "My second sister has many tricks, and she won't get into trouble easily."

Hu Laojiu caught up with him and said, "Lu Yi, nothing will happen to the boss."

"Don't panic." Lu Yi also responded with a smile: "Let me ask the storyteller, let me ask..."

The hard stone road of just a few meters seemed like a quagmire under the feet of the few people, draining away all their strength.

"Everyone, get out of my way!!"

Hu Laojiu rushed forward, pulled out the short knife hidden under his robe, and violently pushed away the crowd of onlookers in front of him, causing them to retreat and make way.

Lu Yi lowered his hands and stepped forward, and the storyteller's voice gradually became clearer in his ears.

"Let's just talk about the Leopard Goddess. There are black clouds under her feet. She walks slowly several feet into the air. A majestic light flashes between her eyebrows. She drives the black panther to swallow the golden soldiers."

"That was a huge army of 200,000 Jin soldiers. When they saw the Leopard Goddess appear, they all moved in unison."

"Wow, it comes at me like a raging wave, and the knife comes out with a clang, just like a ghost walking in the daytime."

"If an ordinary person saw this scene, I'm afraid his soul would be scattered and his seven spirits would fly away in shock."

"But who is the Leopard Goddess? She is the guardian deity of Qingzhou City."

"She made the sky and the earth change color with a wave of her hand, and dimmed the sun and the moon with a step of her foot. Facing 200,000 Jin soldiers, she not only did not retreat, but instead faced them head-on, leading her leopard group to charge straight at the Jin soldiers."

"Instantly, the Jin soldiers were killed and fled in panic, crying for their parents..."

when! !

As the storyteller was speaking, Hu Laojiu had already pushed through the crowd and stabbed the table fiercely with the short blade in his hand.

"You...what are you doing in broad daylight..."

The storyteller was frightened by Hu Laojiu, and asked timidly as he looked at the short blade.

With one hand, Lu Yi pushed Hu Laojiu away and stepped forward in a Confucian robe and bowed lightly.

"Excuse me, old sir. I want to ask if you know the name of this leopard goddess and whether she is dead or alive."

Seeing Lu Yi's polite and well-educated manner, the old storyteller felt relieved.

"Hey young man, you asked the right person this question. Others really don't know."

"The three-eyed leopard demon girl is from Heyuan Village, Jianhe County, Qingzhou Prefecture, Wu Country!"

"My family's surname is Lu, and my given name is You!"

Lu You's true identity has been revealed, and this information cannot be hidden from investigation, so Wen Chengjie directly made it public.

Lu Yi's body was shaking, and Zhou Shuyi beside him supported Lu Yi while crying.

But who would have thought that the storyteller on the opposite side did not notice anything wrong at this time and continued to talk.

"The Lu family in Heyuan Village is relatively unknown, but in Qingzhou City, two heroes have emerged."

"The three-eyed leopard demon girl Lu You deserves the first credit, but the Lu family also deserves another great credit!"

"Lu You's brother Lu Ming, as the shield leader of the third group of the Qingzhou Army's Chasing Wind Battalion, actually sneaked into the Jin army camp after the Qingzhou Army was dispersed."

"Before attacking the city, he united with the heroes of Cangyun Mountain and burned the food and grass of the 200,000-strong Jin army."

"This is a family of two loyal heroes, loyal and brave to protect Qingcheng."

"Sister and brother go into battle together and defeat the Jin soldiers with their lives!"

Snapped! !

As the gavel banged, cheers rang out all around.

Lu Yi turned around slowly with lifeless eyes and walked out of the crowd.

"Xiaoyi..."

Zhou Shuyi supported Lu Yi with a trembling voice, and she was still crying and gasping for breath.

"Second sister..."

"Big brother..."

Lu Yi murmured, his face quickly turning red.

puff……
