Lu Bu: My wife comes from two thousand years later

Chapter 31 Reunion after a long absence

A few dozen miles north of the post station, you will enter the territory of Jinyang and are also close to the foothills of Taihang Mountain. Countless towering trees are scattered among this rugged mountain forest.

Under the trees, shrubs and flowers grow unrestrainedly, small flowers bloom one after another, attracting swarms of bees and butterflies to dance. A group of foraging rabbits scurry in the grass, and birds chirp on the branches. It is as cheerful as a fairy tale world.

"crunch-"

A dead tree was stepped on and broken, and the hurried footsteps broke the tranquility and peace here. Rabbits ran around, birds were startled, and Zhang Mo's staggering figure appeared and disappeared behind many thick tree trunks.

She didn't know how long she had been running. One of her shoes fell off, her clothes were torn to shreds, and her feet were pierced by countless thorns and stones. Every time she stepped on it, it was excruciatingly painful, but no matter how painful it was, it was not as painful as the fear in her heart at that moment.

In order to catch her, the group of thieves kept chasing her. Anren had to protect her and kill the thieves at the same time, and he couldn't handle it at all.

The horse she was riding was hacked to death by the bandits, and Anren was also injured. Without a mount, he could not protect her at all, so he let her run into the woods by herself, and he came to stop the bandits, but he could not stop so many people alone.

Hearing the footsteps behind her, Zhang Mo was frightened and wanted to hide in the bushes, but seeing the blood trail left by her feet, she could only endure the severe pain and run forward desperately.

After running through a cluster of dense bushes, the light in front of her eyes suddenly became bright. In the open space in front of her, a wooden house stood quietly. Zhang Mo no longer cared about the pain, and ran inside while calling for help.

Pushing open the unlocked door of the wooden house, there were two couches inside. Although the bedding was messy, it was obvious that someone lived there. Zhang Mo shouted twice but no one responded. Just as she was about to go out, the voice of the thief leader was heard outside.

"The young lady might be hiding in the house. Ergou, go in and take a look." The thief leader looked around and said to Ergou.

Ergou responded and walked towards the wooden house.

There was no way to escape. Zhang Mo was so nervous that she was at a loss. She gasped for breath and looked around the house. She saw an axe behind the door. She walked over, picked up the axe with trembling hands, and held it tightly in her hand.

She had never killed anyone with her own hands, but after traveling here, she had seen countless scenes of murder and had even lain in a sea of ​​blood and corpses. She was not afraid of killing.

Ergou didn't regard Zhang Mo as a threat at all. He pushed open the wooden door carelessly. Before he could see the situation inside the house clearly, a shiny knife suddenly flashed in front of him. Ergou couldn't react in time. A scream was stuck in his throat. He covered his neck with blood and rolled out of the house.

Zhang Mo raised her sleeve to wipe away the blood that sprayed on her eyes, picked up the wooden stick that was blocking the door next to her and blocked it tightly.

After secretly practicing martial arts with Guan Hai for several months, she only gained some strength and endurance. She was okay for a sneak attack, but if she had to face the bandit leader head-on, even a hundred of them would not be enough to chop her down.

The bandit leader was stunned for a moment, dismounted and ran to Ergou, only to see that there was a big gash on his neck, and it was obvious that he was dead. After a while, Ergou could not move.

"The young lady is pretty good!"

The thief leader narrowed his cold eyes and walked forward, smashing the wooden door into pieces with a big stone hammer several times.

He walked in, glanced at the bed, and smiled lewdly, "I wanted to capture him back to the village, but since there's something ready here, I'll do it here."

In the small wooden house, Zhang Mo was unable to escape and could not fight back. She was desperate. Although she was afraid of death, she was more afraid of being humiliated to death. She raised her hand and slashed her neck with the axe without hesitation.

Seeing this, the thief leader quickly pounced on him, snatched the knife away, and laughed wantonly, "You want to die? Let me have a good time before you die, hahahaha..."

He threw down the knife, picked up the screaming Zhang Mo and threw her onto the couch.

……

In the woods, Wei Xu looked at the slightly frowning Lü Bu with a flattering expression, "Brother-in-law, your heart aches again? Is it the immortal who has come again? Can you talk to her and give me some money too?"

Zhang Liao, standing by, asked curiously, "What immortal?"

Wei Xu continued to explain, and Zhang Liao was surprised. "Is there such a strange thing in the world?"

"That's right. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it."

Wei Xu gestured and said, "Brother-in-law can knock down a rock this big with a single blow of his halberd. And a horse this big, he can kick it several feet away. I'll show you how to do it later. It's definitely..."

"Shut up!" Lu Bu felt annoyed and interrupted him coldly.

Seeing Lü Bu's fierce look, Wei Xu looked aggrieved. "Wenyuan is one of us. You just said we can't tell anyone else..."

Lu Bu took a deep breath and relaxed his expression. "That's not what I meant. It's just that listening to you nagging today has made the pain in my chest even worse."

"You haven't felt pain in a long time. What happened today? Did the immortal speak?"

Lu Bu shook his head. He just felt very irritated and wanted to kill someone.

"How about I go into the city and find a doctor to take a look?" Zhang Liao asked worriedly.

Lü Bu led his horse into the woods. "I'm afraid the doctor can't see me. I'm not in much pain, but I feel particularly uncomfortable today. I haven't felt any pain in a while. I don't know why."

Having said this, Lu Bu suddenly stopped. After a moment, he threw down the reins and galloped forward. Zhang Liao and Wei Xu were stunned for a moment, then hurriedly led their horses to catch up.

After running for a while, he could clearly hear screams and lewd laughter coming from the direction of the wooden house. Without looking, he knew what was happening in the house.

He had seen a lot of such things at the border. Every time the Xianbei went south to plunder, Han women would be raped. In addition to young women, there were even girls under ten years old.

In the past, when encountering such things, Lu Bu would not have much emotion other than anger, but today he felt his whole heart was in panic.

Lu Bu's feet seemed to be equipped with hot wheels as he rushed towards the wooden house at a rapid speed. The small door of the wooden house was open. From dozens of steps away, he could see a rough man raping a young lady on his couch.

"stop!"

Lu Bu roared, rushed in in three or two steps, picked up the rough man, and threw him out of the house.

Zhang Mo's clothes were torn into a mess, and the purple marks on her white and smooth neck were particularly conspicuous. Lu Bu took a glance at her and felt a severe pain in his heart. He hurriedly pulled the quilt over and wrapped her tightly.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's okay, it's okay..." He comforted awkwardly.

Zhang Mowai burst into tears, crying, "I'm going to kill him, kill him! Skin him and tear his bones apart..."

"Okay, okay, kill him. I'll help you kill him right now."

Lu Bu turned and walked out, picked up the bandit leader who was still wailing on the ground, and knocked out half of his teeth with one punch.

"How dare you kill such a child? Damn it!"

The bandit leader had just been knocked down by Lu Bu and his head was still dazed. He was punched again and was completely dumbfounded.

"Are there any living people?" the thief leader asked in a leaky accent.

"Fuck you!" Lu Bu punched the bandit leader again, and he spat out several teeth mixed with blood.

Lu Bu was furious, but he didn't want the bandit leader to die so quickly, so he acted with restraint.

Inside the house, Zhang Mo cried for a while, venting her fear and anger. Then she slowly calmed down. She came out wrapped in a quilt and said to Lu Bu, "Leave him alive."

Lu Bu looked at her and was stunned. Even though her face was covered in tears and blood, it still couldn't hide her stunning beauty, especially her clear eyes, which were now a bit cold and murderous, and so beautiful that it was breathtaking.

The most important thing was not how beautiful this woman was, but that she gave him a sense of déjà vu, as if he were meeting his lover after a long separation.

Lover? Lu Bu suddenly came to his senses. The young lady looked only eleven or twelve years old. How could he have such a dirty thought?

"How to torture?" Lu Bu asked in tacit understanding.

"Tie him up first," Zhang Mo said coldly. An Ren didn't know if he was out of danger, so she didn't have time to deal with him right now.

At this time, Zhang Liao and Wei Xu caught up from behind. Lu Bu threw the man to Wei Xu and said, "Tie him up."

"Who is this?" Wei Xu held the half-dead bandit leader, looking at this one and that one, with a face full of question marks.

Lu Bu was stunned, as if he had returned to reality from a dream, with a face full of puzzlement. He didn't know who these two people were and why they ran into his house.

Zhang Mo was wrapped in a quilt and it was inconvenient for her to bow, so she bent down and bowed, saying gratefully, "My little girl Zhang Mo, thank you very much..."

She looked at Lu Bu, whose hair was casually tied behind his head with a headband, and his scraggly beard almost covered half of his face. He was wearing a very ordinary short brown shirt, which was torn in some places. Then she looked at Wei Xu, who was also sloppy. The two of them seemed no different from bandits. Only the young man in white robe looked normal.

She continued, "Thank you so much for saving my life. My family and I were passing through this place when we were attacked by bandits. I got separated from them and ended up here by mistake. My guards are still following us, and I'm not sure if they've escaped danger. Could you please help me check on them?"

As she spoke, she knelt on the ground and said, "I will never forget the great kindness you three have shown me."

Lu Bu did not agree immediately, but pointed at Er Gou's body and asked, "Is this a thief or one of yours?"

Zhang Mo said, "I attacked the thief with a hatchet."

"Did you kill him?"

Lu Bu's eyes changed. Judging from the wound, the deceased was killed by a single knife. Even if an ordinary woman had to kill someone in retaliation, her method would not be so precise.

Looking at Zhang Mo again, her face was filled with anxiety, not even a trace of fear. Not only had she killed someone, but she had just let the thief rape her. Yet, she could act like nothing had happened. This was not the reaction of a young lady.

"What's wrong?"

Zhang Mo looked at him in confusion and explained, "I hid behind the door and killed him when he wasn't paying attention."

Not only was Lu Bu suspicious, but Wei Xu and Zhang Liao also looked suspicious. Shouldn't she be trembling and crying at this time? This calm and composed attitude was uncharacteristic.

"Are you really being chased by bandits?" Zhang Liao asked tentatively.

Zhang Mo looked at them in confusion. "The thief is right here, how could it be fake? What are you guys suspecting?"

What happened today seems similar to what happened with A Ling last time, but it also seems different. If this is acting, it is too realistic.

Fearing it was a trap, Zhang Liao said, "You wait here, I'll go help her."

"go together!"

Lu Bu walked into the house and took out a piece of his own clothes and gave it to Zhang Mo, "Put it on, I will take you to rescue people."

He lived in the forest just because he didn't want anyone to bother him every day. He, Lu Fengxian, was not the kind of person who would hide his head and show his tail.

Zhang Mo nodded gratefully, went into the house and quickly put on her clothes. Lu Bu's short shirt could be used as her skirt. Zhang Mo tied her waist with the torn clothes on the ground. Fortunately, her pants were still there. Although it was strange to wear it like this, it covered all the parts that needed to be covered.

It was difficult to ride in the forest. Lu Bu looked at Zhang Mo's injured right foot, carried her on his back, and said to Wei Xu, "Stay here to watch over the thieves. Wenyuan, come with me to rescue them."
