Lintai Storm Record

laughter.Walking away in a wave of footsteps, another group of guards were replaced outside. The light of the torch shone from the wall. With a bah sound, the young man frowned, and then pretended not to know anything and still closed his eyes.

Ha ha laughter sounded outside the sheepfold.

The thieves felt bored, and the sound of walking footsteps gradually quieted down, and each stood to watch the night.

The young man opened his eyes, shrugged his shoulders in disgust and shook the things in his collar. The sticky and slippery feeling had already flowed down his neck, his brows writhed, and suddenly, his face paled and he vomited.

The people around hurriedly avoided, the rope dragged them back and forth.

The ring door was opened, and a guard strode up, cut the ropes tied to the young man's hands and feet, and carried him out like a chicken.

There was the sound of splashing water, whipping, and screams. After a while, the young man whose clothes were stripped from the beating was thrown back into the crowd, and the people around quickly dispersed to avoid it.The guard stood on the door laughing wretchedly, straightened his underwear, wiped his mouth with his index finger, and stared meaningfully at the young man lying on the ground, like a hungry wolf staring at a doomed weak rabbit.

The figure was already dead, and it took him a while to move. He lifted his trousers to cover the cold white flesh exposed under the moonlight, fastened his trouser belt with trembling hands, and leaned against the wall to pant, his whole body was violently Shaking, it took a long time to calm down.

No one came near him.

The eyes in the open and in the dark moved away, and the atmosphere became more and more deadly silent.

Liu Zhixing clenched his fists tightly, Song Qianzhi looked down at his hands, and thought.Liu Zhixing looked very similar to the young man who had just been dragged out.

Lu Guan took Song Qianzhi's hand and shook his head imperceptibly at him.

Song Qianzhi whispered to Liu Zhixing, "Women's lives will not be in danger for the time being. If there is a chance, sir, you'd better ask your family members not to resist. I will find out who those people are over there later." Song Qianzhi His eyes pointed to the group of people who were locked here before, "Lord Liu." Song Qianzhi lowered his head to confirm that Liu Zhixing was listening. His face was livid and his forehead was sweating, which made Song Qianzhi even more sure that he had just been dragged out to be whipped That young man may be a relative of Liu Zhixing.

"Your Excellency will not be in danger for the time being. They should take you and raise conditions with the court."

Liu Zhixing's eyes lit up, he raised his head suddenly, and frowned at the young man in front of him. He was in great shock all night before he was awakened by this sentence.

"What should I do?" Liu Zhixing asked hoarsely, and then said with luck, "They don't know who the new Zhizhou is."

"If he didn't know, the clerk pretending to be an adult wouldn't have been disembowelled on the spot."

Liu Zhixing trembled all over, breathed heavily and said, "Then what should I do?"

"They won't take any action tonight. If there is no accident, the leaders of these people will negotiate with you again tomorrow and ask you to write a letter to the court." Song Qianzhi said, "Master Liu, please write according to their request."

"They...they know who I am?" Liu Zhixing still couldn't believe that his identity had been exposed.

"Look, is there anyone missing from the people you took on board?"

Liu Zhixing raised his body, and the time seemed extremely long. After a long time, Liu Zhixing's face darkened, and he said with difficulty: "The barbarians are cruel by nature, cunning and cunning. If we follow through, I'm afraid we will lose money and people."

"Then you must show courage that ordinary people cannot match." Song Qianzhi turned his back, Lu Guan and Zhou Xian moved their bodies intentionally or unintentionally, so that no one around could see what Song Qianzhi was doing.Song Qianzhi took the opportunity to take out the short knife hidden in his boot, held the scabbard, and handed it to Liu Zhixing.

"When writing the letter, please find an opportunity to use this knife to kill the bandit leader."

Liu Zhixing's face turned pale in an instant.

"No, no, impossible...I can't."

Song Qianzhi turned to take a look at the young man who was left aside by everyone, and then looked at Liu Zhixing. Before Liu Zhixing could look back, he closed his eyes with a complicated expression.

In the wilderness, insects were buzzing, as if there were rustling reptiles gliding across the ground. In the southern wilderness, no one knew what would happen next moment, and no one knew whether they would be able to see Xunzhou City alive.

The night has just thickened, and I don't know what time it is.

"If I didn't make it..." Before Liu Zhixing finished speaking, his hand was held by Song Qianzhi. Song Qianzhi clasped his hand to make him hold the dagger tightly, and the cold weapon was passed to Liu Zhixing. Zhi hid the dagger in his arms.

"I have already searched them today, I hope they will remember tomorrow. It's really unexpected. The worst is to fight to the death. We haven't done anything yet. We want to save everyone as much as possible. If it doesn't work, at least we will save the adults. Please don't worry, my lord." Song Qianzhi watched Liu Zhixing seriously, let go of his hands, and sat down to the end as if nothing had happened.

Liu Zhixing watched as two people followed the young man to the other end of the line like shadows, and the young man wrapped the long rope pulled out from the other end around his hands and feet.

This rope that binds people cannot bind everyone. Although the knot is not easy to untie, it is not completely impossible to move.

But witnessing the cruel scene on the river beach, none of these people who were locked in the sheepfold wanted to take risks.Even if he can rush out from here, I'm afraid it's just to let Hades come earlier.

Liu Zhixing sighed, leaning his head back against the wall, his shoulders drooping, as if someone had taken his spine away.

☆、Orthodoxy ([-])

Sleeping too much on the boat during the day, Song Qianzhi didn't feel sleepy. He opened one eye and glanced to the side, where a group of people were crowded together, hidden in the dark shadows under the backlit wall.

Song Qianzhi deliberately fell on the person next to him, but the person who seemed to be standing still quickly dodged away, and the person squeezed by him didn't say a word, and still closed his eyes to sleep.

Lu Guan pulled Song Qianzhi to lean on his shoulder.

"Lian Jiazi." Song Qianzhi said in a very low voice.

"Well, look at his clothes." Lu Guan turned his head and whispered into Song Qianzhi's ear.

The people sleeping next to each other were dressed in ragged clothes, with a lot of plaster on them, the light was too dim to see clearly, but Song Qianzhi felt something strange from the dark silver pattern of swimming fish on the hem of the robe, it was worn by a fifth-rank military officer .Song Qianzhi turned his head, met Lu Guan's eyes, pulled Lu Guan's hand and drew a fish in Lu Guan's palm calmly.

Lu nodded his head.

"Hello." Song Qianzhi lightly bumped the man next to him with his elbow.

The man remained motionless, as if he had fallen asleep.Just now the man's quick evasion showed that he was definitely not asleep, probably he just didn't want to pay attention to Song Qianzhi.

Song Qian's hand touched the ground.

Lu Guan hugged him with one arm, and whispered in his ear: "Sleep first."

"Wait." Song Qianzhi hurriedly said, and the rope that bound his hands unceremoniously loosened as soon as he moved, and he didn't buy it at all.

"You can tie it up for me later." Song Qianzhi said to Lu Guan, but his eyes rolled on the man who pretended to be asleep.

"Oh? Tie it up?" Lu Guan said, "When we get to Songzhou, can you let me do it too?"

"..." Song Qianzhi knew that Lu Guan was joking and relieved his tension, but he couldn't help but glared at him, but the scene of Lu Guan doing whatever he wanted to him appeared in his mind, and the sweat rose from his collar He started to feel hot even while breathing, and he tried not to think about those messy things. He touched the straw on the ground with his fingers and poked at the nostrils of the man next to him. Lightly lest the other party hold back.

In desperation, the man finally opened his eyes, rubbed his nose and let out two sneezes. He pressed his nose with both hands, and after sneezing, he wiped his hand on his robe.

Song Qianzhi: I know why the robe is so dirty.

"Where is Xiongtai's military officer? Why are you here?" Song Qianzhi whispered without squinting.

"Captured." The man said coldly, not interested in Song Qianzhi's origin at all. He wanted to close his eyes, but the sour taste of being stuck in his nostrils just now made him lean back and sit up vigilantly again. straight body.

"You haven't said where you are from." Song Qianzhi reminded.

The man twisted his face, and said in a low voice with great reluctance: "Where do I come from? Shut up, uncle is going to sleep."

"Then go to sleep."

The young man readily agreed, but the man didn't dare to sleep anymore, joking, wouldn't it be more uncomfortable to be woken up by a straw scratching his nose after falling asleep.

"Xunzhou."

"The state capital of Xunzhou? Or the nearby garrison?"

The man raised his eyelids, under the crowded and overlapping eyelids, he glared at Song Qianzhi with a savage light, and snorted, "Are you a member of the court?"

"My surname is Song, and my single name is a star. Big brother doesn't mind, call me little brother Song."

The man snorted coldly and said, "You are not qualified to call me a brother. It's a pity." He looked at Song Qianzhi and shook his head again and again.

"What a pity?"

"It's a pity that you are going to die at such a young age." The man said coldly, "I'm afraid that a poor family boy who studied hard for ten years and finally became an official will be released to this poor land. These rascals want to take you Asking the imperial court for money, but unfortunately they miscalculated, now my big Chu is precarious, and last year was full of disasters, and I dared to owe the food and salaries of the Zhenbei Army, so how can there be any money left for them.”

"Oh, big brother knows the news about Zhenbei Army?" Song Qianzhi looked very interested.

"Not only do I know the news about the Zhenbei Army, but I also know that the Holy One sent someone to pick up Liu Yun. This son is a traitor. He ordered his old troops to pretend to be Heidi people, and harass Yongzhou, which is facing the sea in the southeast. Rape, rape, and robbery are all kinds of crimes."

"What?" Song Qianzhi almost jumped up, "How do you know?"

The man fell silent.

Song Qianzhi looked at Lu Guan anxiously, tugged at his sleeve, Lu Guan held his fingers, and signaled him to calm down with his eyes.

Song Qian's heart turned.Why did Liu Yun do this?As long as someone is sent to investigate, it can be found out immediately that his old department is pretending to be a Heidi. Fu Mingshao has already summoned Liu Yun to the capital and wants his daughter to be the queen. Could it be that this is not Liu Yun's intention, but his? The old department made a claim?

"Fake sword." Hearing Lu Guan's murmured voice, Song Qianzhi suddenly became enlightened. He opened his eyes wide and saw Lu Guan's expression changed from calm to unbelievable. Lu Guan's brows were deeply furrowed.

At this moment, both of them thought of going together.

At the beginning, Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan had been guessing why Liu Suguang made a fake sword, and even suspected that Liu Suguang was not under the order of Fu Mingshao, but instead worked for Li Mingchang.After confirming that Liu Suguang used the secret technique to make Zhou Xian tell the hidden place of the Baxia Sword in a dream, she went straight to the Qilin Tomb. It must be pointed out by someone in the royal family, and Lu Guan forced Fu Mingshao to hide it because of his outspokenness. In a rage, someone took him down.

It was an accident that Lu Guan committed the crime. Song Qianzhi persuaded the prime minister to write a letter to enable the deal that Liu Yun and Fu Mingshao reached secretly.

Song Qianzhi sat breathing rapidly, his eyes rolled back and forth unsteadily, his brows furrowed from time to time, even his teeth were clenched unconsciously, and his cheeks felt sour for a while before he relaxed.

When Song Qianzhi wanted to ask Li Yeyuan to see him, Li Yeyuan said on the spot that he would do it immediately, and was even reasonable, as if he had already thought that Fu Mingshao would use Liu Yun.Liu Yun returned to the court, and his daughter was canonized as queen again. At that time, Liu Yun's power would surpass Bai Guyou overnight. At that time, even Li Yeyuan, who was in power, could only evade by three points.

Could it be that Li Yeyuan really has no intention of governing and just wants to go into seclusion?But Li Yeyuan couldn't have imagined that what Fu Mingshao wanted was not for him to give up the position of prime minister, but for his life...

Liu Yun was still on his way to Beijing under escort, and there was no official edict granting him an official position, so he should not be able to mobilize the old ministry.

This made Song Qianzhi naturally contact Liu Suguang who got the Baxia Sword first.This sword used to be Rongzong's commanding sword. If there is Liu Yun's handwriting, and the generals who have had friendship with Liu Yun through life and death, they can obey orders. If something happens, it will be pushed to this sword.

At this point, Song Qianzhi has completely figured it out.

The Baxia sword should be in his hand, and the handwriting can be deduced to be a forgery, and if the fake sword is destroyed, even if Song Qianzhi is full of mouth, he can't make it clear.

It's not that Fu Mingshao's strategy is flawless, but because of a blunder, he trapped himself in it.To Fu Mingshao, Song Qianzhi was nothing at all. If Fu Mingshao wanted to break free from the control of the Queen Mother and Li Xiang, what he really needed was the army.

Bai Guyou is loyal to Great Chu, and has a straightforward nature, so it is absolutely impossible for him to become Fu Mingshao's private weapon.But in the current court, either Li or Qin, Fu Mingshao can only rehabilitate the guilty ministers, like Liu Yun and others, the old department is still there, once they regain power, the old subordinates will definitely flock to them.Compared with selecting candidates through imperial examinations, raising students, supporting them, and cultivating loyalty saves time and effort.

Song Qianzhi's face gradually turned pale, and his lips were tightly pursed.

"You're so courageous, what kind of official do you come out to instead of breastfeeding at home?" The man sneered, "Hey, are you stupid?" Down.

It's useless to be anxious at this moment, Song Qianzhi came to his senses, and said dissatisfiedly: "Brother doesn't want to talk too much, and I don't want to offend you." He made a gesture and stood up.

The man quickly grabbed him with such force that Song Qianzhi had no choice but to sit back down.

"Where is your position in the court? What did the court send you here for? Are those two guys yours?"

It turned out that the man had been watching secretly, rather than dozing off as he had shown.

Song Qianzhi thought for a while, and replied: "Master Qin is my superior. He sent me to investigate the rebellion that broke out in the upper reaches of the Long River. What happened. Zhao Yu, the former governor of Xunzhou, rebelled. Friendship." While talking about Song Qianzhi, he paid attention to the reaction of the people in front of him, and seeing his angry expression, he knew that there was something for him, so he continued, "I think this Zhao Yu wants to live in a corner and be the emperor here. Maybe he colluded with the hunters to make trouble, and wanted to take advantage of the fire to rob..."

In the blink of an eye, Song Qianzhi's neck was almost grabbed by the man who rushed over suddenly.Lu Guan moved faster, pressed the man against the wall, and punched him in the face, the man grunted, not daring to cry out in pain.

Walk outside the sheepfold.

Everyone leaned back to rest on the spot and closed their eyes.

After the movement subsided, Song Qianzhi opened his eyes and saw the man's nose bleeding, thinking that Lu Guan's attack was really ruthless, and tore off the cloth strip from his robe, signaling the man to stop the bleeding.

The man smiled instead of anger, and wiped his nosebleed with his dirty sleeve.

"There are a few times, it seems that I can run away." His voice became smaller and smaller, and he leaned over, the sour smell hit his body, Song Qianzhi didn't even frown, Lu Guan pulled him, Song Qianzhi secretly said Lu Guan shook his head and did not dodge or dodge. When the man approached, he heard him say quickly in a low voice, "Master Zhao Yu is not a rebel, but was captured by thieves. I don't know where he is being held. I am Cao Xu Ruiyun from the Xunzhou Army." Come on." Xu Ruiyun turned sideways, moved his chest forward, and signaled Song Qianzhi to touch his arms with his eyes.

"There is a piece of cloth in the inner lining, it is not sewn to death, have you touched it?" Xu Ruiyun suddenly said, "Don't touch it randomly."

Song Qianzhi blushed slightly, and took out a corner of a piece of cloth from Xu Ruiyun's arms.

"Tear it off." Xu Ruiyun said, "Be careful and keep your voice down."

Song Qian's hand exerted strength, and his movements did not dare to be too sharp, so as not to make too much noise and be heard by others. After tearing it off, the light was too dim, and he couldn't see what was on it. He could only vaguely see that there were words on it, and it felt rough. Hard, uneven and angular, unlike ink.

"In the process of tracking and rescuing Mr. Zhao, I searched a place where Liaoren was staying and found this. At that time, there was no one there. This is Mr. Zhao's letter of love written in blood. I will find a way, Let you escape, you take this back to the Ministry of War, give it to Master Qin, and clean up the grievances of Master Zhao."

In the dark, Xu Ruiyun looked at Song Qianzhi with shining eyes.

"Are you sure Zhao Yu is still alive?" Song Qianzhi asked with difficulty.

Xu Ruiyun remained silent for a long time.

It seems that Zhao Yu is also in danger, and I am afraid that this blood letter was written at a time of crisis.Why didn't Liaoren detain Zhao Yu like he did to Liu Zhixing in order to ask for a ransom.Why was Zhao Yu considered a rebel by the court?

"I don't understand the affairs of the officialdom. I only know that Zhao Yu is a good official. He cannot be allowed to bear such a stigma. Whether he is alive or dead, he should be clean. If you don't believe me, When you leave here and ask in the city of Xunzhou, you will know everything."

"Everyone is a clay bodhisattva, how can we escape?" Song Qianzhi asked tentatively.

"There is a karst cave near here. Just take a boat and you can pass through this ghost-infested jungle and enter Songzhou."

"Why don't you run away?"

Xu Ruiyun took a deep breath: "That cave can only accommodate a small boat of three or four people."

Song Qianzhi thought it was over.This way is also dead. If you only want the three of them to escape, you can find a chance no matter what.

"These people want to ask the imperial court for money. You are officials, so you are safe for the time being." Xu Ruiyun said, "Think about it carefully, and we will make preparations after we think about it."

"That person over there." Song Qianzhi pouted in Liu Zhixing's direction, "Do you know who it is?"

Xu Ruiyun leaned back uninterestedly: "I don't care who he is, he's a fat sheep anyway."

"He's an officer, too."

Xu Ruiyun opened his eyes.

"He is the new magistrate of Xunzhou. There is no better candidate than him to rehabilitate the former magistrate." Song Qianzhi resolutely said, "There are so many people here, can we only save three of us?"

Xu Ruiyun looked around thoughtfully, then turned around to look at his incomplete 20 or so brothers.

"What do you propose?"

"Thanks to Xinzhizhou, the bandit leader will definitely meet him in person. I just don't know how many people and how many bow|crossbowmen there are in this village."

Xu Ruiyun has been imprisoned for half a month. He observes secretly every day, and has basically figured out the situation here.There are no more than one or two hundred people living in this village, and there are only twelve crossbowmen, all of whom live in a cylindrical and cone-roofed house in the northeast corner of the village.

Lu Guan pulled Song Qianzhi close to him, and he and Song Qianzhi changed positions with little movement.

Song Qianzhi just jumped up from beside Lu Guan, but Lu Guan held him on his lap.

"It's time to sleep." Lu Guan said in a deep voice.

Song Qianzhi struggled to think about it, but Lu Guan covered his eyes, and his tense nerves instantly relaxed. Lu Guan's palm was warm and dry, and he really felt sleepy.Song Qianzhi vaguely heard Lu Guan and Xu Ruiyun talking in a low voice in his ears, he slowly relaxed and let the insects in the mountains rush over.

The first ray of light shone on his face, Song Qianzhi woke up almost immediately, he moved on Lu Guan's leg, and Lu Guan also woke up.

Gradually, people were talking and walking outside the sheep pen, and not long after, a woman came with a dustpan bigger than her body.More than a dozen Liao men held weapons and stared at the captives with their heads lowered. They were strung together, their hands were not free, and they could only clasp their palms to grab the Ciba.

The guards communicated in local dialect, which the prisoners could not understand.

According to Song Qianzhi's idea, the bandit leader will meet with Liu Zhixing today.As a result, no one was taken out from sunrise to sunset.In the evening, a heavy rain came suddenly, and the whole sheep pen was muddy by the rain.

Lu Guan embraced Song Qianzhi in his arms, the rainwater slid from his face to Song Qianzhi's face was already warm.

Zhou Xian sat beside him depressedly, constantly picking up the skirt of his robe and wringing it dry.

People crowded to the wall, trying in vain to hide from the rain. There was no roof to cover the sheepfold, so even if they sat under the wall, they would still be exposed to the rain, but the wind was weaker.Fortunately, the rainstorm came and went quickly, and it was sunny before a cup of tea. The sun was pouring on the people, making everyone warm. Before dark, everyone had already dried their clothes and clothes.

There is only one glutinous rice cake a day, and each person only has one, probably to prevent the captives from running away when they are full.

Song Qianzhi was not only worried that everyone would lose the strength to escape on the day of the action.

"Brothers have strength." Xu Ruiyun stayed with Song Qianzhi during the day, and saw clearly that Song Qianzhi's face was noble, good-looking, with delicate skin and tender flesh, so he knew it.I am afraid that this is not a poor family boy, and his attitude has changed greatly.

"Brother Xu, this move must be successful once, otherwise we will die together in the mountains." At this time, it was already dark again, and the Liaoren in the mountain did not go out to be a monster today. There was a lot of noise outside, and the Liaoren was playing an unknown Musical instruments, the women in the village dressed up and danced around the campfire until nearly midnight.

Song Qianzhi's head was stuck on Lu Guan's chest, and when he was drowsy, he heard a woman crying, which was calling "help" in a language he could understand.

The night wind was whistling, and the men in the sheepfold were all bowing their heads. Liu Zhixing's fingers were pierced into the flesh, and his palms were bleeding, but he didn't realize it. He just stared blankly at the mud in front of him, his eyes widened. As if to stare a hole in the ground.

That night, Song Qianzhi called Lu Ning first, and roughly agreed with him on the division of labor. As long as Liu Zhixing was taken away, the rest of the people stood still and waited until the guards outside were brought down before everyone went out.

"Don't worry, my lord, the little one is best at escaping." Lu Ning grinned, "It's the little one who deserves to die." He smiled, revealing two big gold teeth.

These merchants and boatmen would never be cowardly if they dared to take risks in the south when Songzhou was already in chaos.

The next day when it was almost noon, Liu Zhixing, who was drowsy in the sheepfold, was roughly lifted by the back collar, and the ropes of his hands and feet were cut off to take him out.

The young man who was bullied that night looked at Liu Zhixing tremblingly.

The moment Liu Zhixing was dragged out, he seemed to have made some kind of decision. His red eyes resolutely left the young man, and his stumbling back was somewhat righteous.

During this period, Liu Zhixing never looked at anyone else. He hunched his back slightly, like a hen protecting its chicks, and hid the knife in his bosom.

After Liu Zhixing was taken away, the guards looked in from the top of the wall, and seeing that there was not much commotion, they continued leaning against the wall and chatting in local dialect with their companions.

Zhou Xian, who was leaning against the wall and dozed off, opened his eyes and met Xu Ruiyun's eyes. Zhou Xian cut off the ropes of Xu Ruiyun and his two subordinates, and climbed over the wall first.

After a while, Xu Ruiyun's expression relaxed, and he gestured to his subordinates, and the three turned out one after another.

Lu Guan pulled out his dagger and cut off the ropes on Song Qianzhi's hands and feet. Song Qianzhi was about to get up, but was forced to sit down by Lu Guan.

Song Qianzhi:? ? ?

"Don't move, just wait."

Song Qianzhi wanted to speak, but Lu Guan kissed him, although he only touched Song Qianzhi's forehead with his lips, Song Qianzhi's entire handsome face was flushed, he lowered his head, not daring to look at the faces of other people, and raised an arm Covering his blushing face, when he put down his hands, there were only a few people in front of Lu Guan who were still unshackled.

Suddenly, voices sounded from outside the sheepfold.

Lu Guan's figure froze.

Song Qian's back went numb, but he could hear clearly that it was the Liao people who were talking, and there were quite a few of them.

☆, Orthodox (四)

A few short identical pronunciations came from outside. It should be that the guards were calling their companions, and they were looking for the guards who were brought down by Zhou Xian and the others.

Song Qian touched his boot subconsciously, and suddenly remembered that he gave Liu Zhixing his dagger.

Lu Guan sat down among the few people who were still bound.Everyone subconsciously hid their hands behind their backs and sat close to the wall, squeezing each other.

The Liaoren babbled a few words in the local dialect.

Half of his head protruded from the top of the wall, and the dark-skinned Liao Man took a look from the top of the wall, he caught a glimpse of a broken rope out of the corner of his eye, doubts appeared in his eyes, he tilted his head to think, his protruding eyes widened suddenly, confused shouted.

The door of the sheepfold was opened, and the people lying on both sides were about to jump up, but what they saw were sharp sharp blades. The person in the lead stopped for a moment, and the people behind were hit by him and sat on the ground.

The hunter rushed in and stabbed with his spear, and the captives who were leaning in front were captured without a fight, and they all rose up to resist.

For a while, there was a chaotic sound of shouting, beating and killing.

Song Qianzhi faintly heard that the outside was also in chaos. He didn't know if Liu Zhixing had succeeded. A figure beside him was about to rush out. Song Qianzhi clearly recognized that it was Liu Zhixing's relatives, and dragged him away. return.

The young man struggled twice, and said urgently, "Let go!"

Song Qianzhi picked up the rope and tied his left hand and his right hand together.

The young man was so angry that his face turned white and red, he lowered his head and was about to bite Song Qianzhi, but Song Qianzhi grabbed his neck.Song Qianzhi squeezed his strength, watched his face turn purple, and let go.

"Don't make trouble, if it wasn't for you, your father wouldn't act. If Mr. Liu dies trying to save the big guy, I have to at least leave him a root."

The young man was out of breath and gasped, "I don't want him to save me!"

Song Qianzhi's backhand was a slap in the face, and he said angrily: "Whether you want him to save you or not, I will rescue you out."

The young man's eyes were full of tears, and suddenly he bumped his head forward. Just when Song Qianzhi thought he was about to be knocked over by the iron head, the young man was grabbed by the collar from behind. He was about to scream when his neck snapped Stiff, tilted his head, and fell to the ground unconsciously, causing Song Qianzhi to also fall to the ground.

Lu Guan dragged Liu Zhixing's son onto his back.

Lu Ning yelled: "Run! Find a place to hide!"

The boatmen followed the instructions and got out of the sheepfold, and the officials and servants led by Liu Zhixing followed closely behind. No one wanted to be locked up in this ghost place like livestock again.

"Follow me!" Lu Guan wrapped his arms around Song Qianzhi's waist to make him stand still, and waved back to signal the others to follow.

"Look, Lu Guan." Song Qian patted Lu Guan's face with one hand, making him turn to look at the blue smoke rising from the northeast corner.

"Zhou Xian is really good." Lu Guan held Song Qianzhi's hand tightly, and grabbed Lu Ning who was walking up in the crowd.

Lu Ning's chubby round face was full of oil, and his expression was blank.

"You take all the people who were caught in the day before yesterday, and disperse them in the forest, hide them well, don't come out, pay attention to safety, there may be snakes in this forest..."

Lu Ning grabbed Lu Guan's arm with his backhand, and shook it hard twice: "You don't need to explain, I know. The adults do too." He let go of Lu Guan's hand, turned his head and shouted at others.

The Liaoren village was in chaos, women and children screaming, and men rushed towards the occupied northeast corner with weapons in hand.

Xu Ruiyun's subordinates took dozens of Liaoren's women and children as hostages.

This earth house has three floors, and the middle of the first floor is used for washing.When Song Qianzhi and the others came in, the whole big house was filled with a disgusting smell of blood, and none of the twelve bow|crossbowmen were spared, and all of them lay dead on the ground.

As soon as the Liaoren women were driven in, they began to cry and scream. When the children saw their mother crying, they also screamed desperately. There were four children under the age of two, and they cried endlessly.

Xu Ruiyun rubbed her hair irritably, ordered these women and children to be locked up on the first floor, and stomped on the stairs to the second floor.

"Come up." Xu Ruiyun poked his head out from the stairs to greet Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan to go up.

Zhou Xian sat under the eaves of the second floor and got on the crossbow machine. Hearing the sound of footsteps, he raised his head and gave Song Qianzhi a naughty smile.

"Come on, share the guys. Let them have a taste of this thing." Zhou Xian said while Ma Liu skillfully assembled the parts in his hand.

Xu Ruiyun's complexion was dark, his chest was bared, and he changed into a clean dress. It's not known whether it was taken off from the hunter or snatched from someone else's house.

The air is hot and humid, and the temperature is high. The robes seem to be soaked in water and stick to the skin, making people uncomfortable.

"Who will come with me to save Liu Zhixing." Song Qianzhi moved his wrist and looked around, looking for a weapon in his hand.

Xu Ruiyun shook his head and said with a smile: "Wait for you, everyone is dead. Just wait, someone has already gone."

Lu Guan observed the surroundings calmly, and said to Song Qianzhi, "Two of his subordinates went to save people. The village is in such a mess. Liu Zhixing should have succeeded."

Xu Ruiyun spat on the ground, and said with a sneer: "If such a small matter can't be done, then he won't be a magistrate." Holding something between his dirty fingers, he shook it at Song Qianzhi, "Two mouthfuls? It's a beast of a hunter. It's more powerful than burning a knife."

Song Qianzhi looked at the rough rolled dark brown tobacco leaf in Xu Ruiyun's hand for a while, and finally took it. There was no fire. Xu Ruiyun was rubbing the flint, but it didn't burn for a long time. He squatted on the ground and rubbed the fire cursingly.

"Brother Xu, don't bother, I don't smoke this." It's fashionable to smoke waterpipes in the capital, but Song Qianzhi doesn't like it. He doesn't even eat Wushi powder, and is often ridiculed by those gangsters. Later, Song Qianzhi left his aunt's place. Fu Mingshao sent him to the secretary's prison, and the group of friends were still studying at home, waiting to take the imperial examination route, and then seek official positions after obtaining merit.Gradually, they each went their own way, and became less and less able to get mixed up in one place.

Xu Ruiyun couldn't understand Song Qianzhi's ink stains, so he finally let the sparks come out, and used fire medium to ignite them. He held the palm of his hand, and forced to light the soil smoke for Song Qianzhi.

Lu Guan frowned and reached out to stop him.

"Let me try." Song Qianzhi blocked his hand, opened his eyes wide, and couldn't help coughing violently after taking a mouthful. He bent down due to coughing, and when he raised his head, redness appeared on his fair face, and his eyes were dark. It was soaked in tears, and it was hot and painful from the throat to the chest. It was unspeakably miserable. Song Qianzhi waved his hands again and again, resolutely refusing to smoke any more.

"Drink water." Lu Guan poured water and fed it to Song Qianzhi helplessly, rubbing the corners of his eyes with his thumb.

Song Qian's face turned even redder.

Xu Ruiyun squinted, squinted at the two of them, and said with a smile: "You guys don't smoke, you can't be considered a man, you are a good brother." He pouted in Zhou Xian's direction, "How about giving it to me, Be a soldier, the situation is so chaotic now, maybe you can make great contributions by wielding knives and guns, and you should be a prince or something like that." Xu Ruiyun swallowed his clouds, his eyes pierced through the fog, and looked downstairs, he Where the line of sight is looking, it is the door that enters this big round earthen house.

"I didn't expect Big Brother Xu to be so ambitious." Song Qianzhi smiled.

Xu Ruiyun sighed: "Who wants to live in this poor mountain and evil water for a lifetime? Even if I go to the north to feed wolves and die in the belly of wolves, it would not be considered as a disgrace to a hero. In Xunzhou and Songzhou, there are no wild wolves, but only wild wolves. Mosquitoes that are poisonous to wolves." He gave a thumbs up to scare Song Qianzhi, "Have you seen such a big mosquito?"

Song Qianzhi shook his head, apparently not believing it.

"Tsk... You'll know when you're bitten, who's young master, or where is your young master, with your skinny skin and tender flesh?"

Lu Guan became angrier as he listened, clenched his fists, and was about to step over Song Qianzhi, but Song Qianzhi hugged his arm, losing his temper all of a sudden. Happy.

Song Qianzhi smiled nonchalantly: "This is my husband."

Xu Ruiyun's eyes widened at first, then he took a sip, wiped his mouth, licked his tongue around his lips, and said: "Damn, you two are really good, I just look at your little wife. Then he is the one sent by the court." Check the former Xunzhou Zhizhou rebellion officials?"

"Yes, his name is Lu Guan, not from the Ministry of War." Song Qianzhi said, "Brother Xu, have you heard of Lintai?"

"Those bastards who work for the emperor?" Xu Ruiyun frowned deeply.

Song Qianzhi didn't answer this question, and walked around, saying: "The emperor ordered Mr. Lu to come to find out what happened to the rebellion in the upper reaches of the Long River, what exactly caused the rebellion, when and who took the lead. That person The assistant assigned to Big Brother is also from the Ministry of Secretaryship, and he used to serve in the Qilin Guard."

Now Xu Ruiyun's heart shuddered, and he didn't dare to underestimate these three people.Although there are only three people here, the person who talks to him looks weak and delicate, but since he is accompanied by people from Secretary Province and Qilinwei, then he will not be a young man, and he will only bring him when he goes out to play in the mountains and rivers. Just to relieve boredom, these three people are all handsome, and their martial arts can't be seen how deep.However, Lu Guan, who is extraordinarily tall and unsmiling, treats this "little brother Song" almost obediently, respects him in every behavior and behavior, obeys him everywhere, takes care of him, maybe he is a real brother.

Breaking in here, Zhou Xian made great efforts, and he was also the first to find the place where the weapons were hidden in this earthen house. He is also very familiar with bows and crossbows.If it is said to be from Qilinwei, it is not surprising.Xu Ruiyun had only heard of the illustrious reputation of the Qilin Guards, and knew that they were the emperor's personal guards, so he didn't want to see them with his own eyes in a plague-stricken place thousands of miles away from the capital.
