MTL - Love Like the Galaxy-Chapter 115
The two groups of people met in a post station north of Xu County. Comrade Wan Songbai was still full of style, the general’s belly was not small at all, the moustache was still smooth and smooth, and the servant girl who was the bodyguard was with him. There are a lot of cooks and two masters who serve hounds - it was the first time that the young businessman noticed that Uncle Wan had the air of an old man from an aristocratic family.
Looking at the death of his father, who was walking in the courtyard, his eyes were full of anger, and he shot it with a knife. She kissed her father and didn't even get up!
"Father! You are so leisurely! Do you know me..."
"Okay." Wan Songbai interrupted his daughter majestically, "If you have something to say, go into the room and say it."
The Shao Shang secretly pinched Wan Qiqi, and Wan Qiqi had to endure her anger and followed the Cheng brothers into the house—the best room in the inn. As soon as the screen retreated from the surroundings, Wan Qiqi couldn't wait to say: "Father, do you know..."
"I know it all!" Wan Songbai said, then he turned to the Cheng brothers and sisters, "The imperial decree was expedited to me by a fast horse four days ago, but your grandmother's secret report five days ago It was delivered. I know everything, this day, the hated Huang Wen, I have no grievances and no grudges against him, but inexplicably came to frame me! When I return to the capital, I must sue him severely! "
already?"
"Father, talk well, don't scare my sister!" Wan Qiqi nervously protected Shaoshang in front of him.
Cheng Shaogong leaned against the stove weakly, stretched out his palms to keep warm, and muttered, "I can't scare her."
"Why did I only set off two days ago, because I can't go to the saints empty-handed! That dog surnamed Huang said that I had kidnapped the people's daughter... Hmph, I now hold a few The joint guarantee book of the family and the big family claims that there is no such thing. I see those poor orphans and children without parents, so I found some respected old men and women to help take care of them. Can I see those poor women? Okay Alright, all of them are yellow-faced and skinny, and their bones are like firewood, is Lao Tzu blind or crazy!"
"I also said that I encircled the people's land? Is Xu County a fertile and prosperous land, 70% of which are mountains, 70%! It is too late for me to enclose the land? What's more, dig out the rocks and sand and give him the tomb of Huang Wenlei!" Wan Songbai's mouth is also very poisonous.
"So uncle didn't occupy land?" Cheng Shaogong frowned.
Wan Songbai said: "Occupying fields is nothing but two purposes, one is beneficial, can be cultivated or mines, and the other is to build a manor, whether my county governor can do it for a lifetime or what? What is the land of Xu County going to do!"
Shao Shang noticed something was different, and glanced at his twin brother: "...such an easy thing to justify, why would Huang Wen impeach his uncle? Could it be... uncle has a grudge against him...?"
Wan Songbai became dumbfounded, and hesitantly said: "This...I don't know..." He turned his head and asked a middle-aged servant next to him, "A Fu, I offended that surnamed Huang. Is it?"
Wan Fu is a servant of the Wan family. He has been Wan Songbai's entourage since he was a child, and now he has become a big steward. He was also a little hesitant: "...It shouldn't be, our family has no contact with Mr. Huang."
Cheng Song's thinking is relatively straightforward: "If you can't figure it out, don't think about it, let's rush back to the capital as soon as possible. After the uncle faces the saint, he will clarify the matter, and then ask the old lady and grandmother to discuss carefully. ."
Wan Songbai slapped her knee vigorously and said without any burden: "That's right. Even if Qiqi's eldest mother can't figure it out, your mother's brain, one of the top ten, will definitely be able to figure it out. Let's today. Rest for a while and leave early tomorrow."
All the juniors claim it.
In the early morning of the next day, the convoy set off. Wan Songbai was in a hurry to complain to the saint, so he proposed to take a shortcut. Anyway, the two groups had already converged, so they were not afraid of missing out.
So, except for Cheng Shaogong, who continued to huddle in the car, the rest of the people rode on horses, chatting and laughing for a day, set up camp at the foot of the mountain at night, and continued on the road early in the morning.
"It's not far from Shouchun, it's curling up, don't you want to go see Ling Buxuan?" Wan Songbai joked with a shy belly.
"Don't go!" Shao Shang refused, "It's hard to be controlled...Ahem, I mean, there are tall buildings in the northwest of the man, and the clouds are on the same level. Master Ling is serving the country at this time. Excuse me, how can I disturb..."
Wan Qiqi didn't know what was on her mind, so she went to see Cheng Song with a smile, Cheng Song made a face. Cheng Shaogong stuck his head out of the car window: "What are you pretending to be in front of us, Master Ling who has the ability to pretend also believes in you."
Shaoshang turned his face and said, "Didn't you dislike Ah Yao's innocence at the beginning, and now you have brought Ling Budo's younger sister-in-law, aren't you overjoyed? He will come back home for dinner later. , come with us!"
Cheng Shaogong was about to retaliate, when a cold arrow was shot in the air, narrowly passing the carriage, and then whistles all around, and the guards in front shouted—"There are robbers. !"
This time is different from the Huaxian one, there is old comrade Wan Songbai on the top of Shaoshang, two brothers on the left and right, and Wan Qiqi is also proficient in riding and archery since she was a child, so she is not very good Worry.
I saw gangsters number 5 or 6 swarming in front of them, dressed in a variety of clothes, some dressed as hunters, some for market bunts, and some wearing outdated armor, everyone's face was covered black cloth.
At first, everyone was not very nervous. After all, there were almost a hundred people here. Who would have thought that these robbers were unexpectedly stabbed. The guards shoot arrows in salvos, they know how to use rattan shields to fight together; the guards ride horses to kill, they know how to put up spears to resist the horse; when it comes to hand-to-hand combat, the bandits actually chop, slash and move freely, each with martial arts Not weak.
The two sides fought fiercely for more than half an hour. With the whistle of the enemy leader, the bandits retreated cleanly.
Wan Songbai led Cheng Song to check the casualties, while Cheng Shaogong guarded the side of Shaoshang with a sword, wondering: "The robbers are so arrogant these days? Dare to rob officers and soldiers in the daytime!"
Shao Shang said: "Yeah, this robber is also quite strange, and he doesn't say "I opened this mountain" first."
Wan Eqi came over and said, "Maybe they want to kill us first, and then take all the belongings? When my grandfather and I were outside, we also encountered murderous mountain bandits. If they can’t beat them, they will run away, and if they can beat them, they will kill them all, so as not to miss the trail and let people report to the government.”
Shao Shang thinks it makes sense.
"
"The situation is not good? Isn't it a big victory?" Shaoshang was puzzled.
The guard leader said: "Little lady, look at where we are now."
Shao Shang and others looked around. This is a passage in the middle of a mountain forest, with dense forests on both sides. Shao Shang still didn't know why, so Cheng Shao Gong said in a deep voice: "The forest is dense and the mountains are deep and the roads are slender. My father said that this terrain is the easiest to set up an ambush."
Forget it, bury them on the spot, and we'll have to deal with them in the future. But what about the wounded, shouldn't they be left here? Ambush, it is very difficult for us to resist."
Shao Shang was amazed: "Could it be that those robbers will come again? Didn't they all run away?"
The leader of the guards said: "It's best if you don't come. But we always have to plan for the worst, so that we can be comprehensive. If the little lady makes a mistake, I can't wait for death."
Shao Shang realized the seriousness of the situation and said solemnly: "Then who do we ask for help, I don't think there are many people in the inn that left yesterday."
The leader of the guards said: "Xu County is located in the northwest of Shouchun, and Cui Hou's army is from north to south to form a pressure on Mount Tai. We can send light cavalry to take it directly from the north, regardless of encounters. Whoever way, as long as the young master's name is revealed, they will always send someone to rescue him."
Shaoshang knew in his heart, and immediately asked someone to take out the pen, ink, silk and silk from the car, and handwritten four letters of help, with the private seal left by Ling Budo at the signing place, and sealed the bag with fire lacquer Then handed it over to the four sturdy knights.
Watching the four cavalry gallop away, Wan Eqi smiled and said, "Maybe you will waste a little of your husband's favor."
After cleaning up, Wan Songbai also felt that it was not appropriate to stay here for a long time, and ordered the team to move forward quickly. After walking for half a day, I saw that the sky was getting dark, and I was about to walk out of this gloomy mountain forest. Who knew that masked men dressed as robbers rushed out of the dense forest on the left and right sides again, surrounded by front and rear, forming a double-team trend.
If you don't need to say a word, it can be another killing sound, this time Shao Shang can't laugh, watching his own casualties getting worse, while the enemy is slowly approaching in an orderly manner, and he has already fought himself. Both Wan Songbai and Cheng Song were covered in blood, and their faces were stained with sweat.
At this time, it showed the psychological quality of Ling Budo's guards. When they hit this field, they were still calm and calm. Hide in the forest.
When it was dark, the robbers were repelled again. Checking the casualties, even if you count the Cheng brothers, there are still less than thirty people left.
The leader of the guard directed everyone to hide in a huge rock cave in the mountain forest, and asked people to pull up the intact carriage to surround it, as a fence to prevent horses, and extinguish the torches and lanterns. Shaoshang asked: "We can get out of the mountains and forests ahead, why don't we rush out."
Without waiting for the guard leader to speak, Cheng Song, whose face was full of blood, said tiredly: "Now we have few people, but we don't know how many thieves there are. When the terrain is open, we are even more dead. There are shelters here, and it is dark and dense, so they dare not come here for the time being, but they will wait until dawn..."
Shao Shang understands and feels chills in his heart.
The leader of the guards said with relief: "Don't be afraid of the little girl. Maybe when it is dawn, the reinforcements will come."
Before Shao Shang could breathe a sigh of relief, he suddenly heard Wan Qiqi's exclamation from the cowhide tent - "Father, Father!"
Shao Shang and the Cheng brothers immediately got up and ran and got into the cowhide tent only to see Wan Songbai lying on the stretcher covered in blood under the dim light, groaning faintly. Wan Qiqi cried, "The manager brought my father back just now, saying that he was stabbed in the chest, and he was hammered **** the back."
The young businessman is fine, but the Cheng brothers have been raised by Wan Songbai since childhood.
Wan Songbai opened his eyes with difficulty and grabbed Cheng Song's arm: "Yes, I was careless, I should rather take a long detour... How can, how can I take this road..."
Tears welled in Cheng Song's eyes, Cheng Shao Gong's white lips trembled, and neither of them could speak.
"I can't blame my uncle." Shao Shang sighed, "Now the north is the army of Marquis Cui, and even if Peng Ni wants to flee, he will flee to the south, and then there will be my uncle who made great contributions. Here's a chance, who would have thought that a thief would appear here!"
"You...you have to go..." Wan Songbai squeezed Cheng Song's wrist firmly, his red eyes filled with remorse and remorse, "The virtuous brother has four sons and one daughter, and now most of them are In my hands, I... I can't let you all collapse here... I'm dead and have no face to see my virtuous brother... You go down the mountain in the dark, ride fast horses..."
But judging from the fierce style of those thieves, they had no choice but to die after leaving the disabled people on the ground. However, if it really comes to the end, they can't care about this much...
Before Wan Songbai finished speaking, Cheng Song shouted: "What uncle said, if we only run away with our own lives, even if we live, we will be shameless!" He backhanded Holding Wan Qiqi, "Qiqi, if we want to die, we will die together!"
Wan Qiqi burst into tears and fell on Cheng Song, choked and unable to speak.
Cheng Shaogong was stunned for a long time, looked at Wan Songbai and said: "Uncle, when I was a child, my father took us into the mountains to hunt, and I would always be lazy and refuse to climb the mountain. Just put me on your back..."
Thinking about the past, Wan Songbai wept hot tears.
Xiaoshang's eyes are hot.
In fact, Uncle Wan is a man who loves children very much, and he doesn't even care about sons over daughters. He loves so many daughters in front of him. All twelve daughters have chosen his son-in-law well and accompanied him The dowry is sent out. If it wasn't for the continuation of the incense, he might not be so greedy for his son.
Wan Songbai was very moved, but he still insisted that they leave first. In the end, due to the dispute between the two sides, he decided to wait another night. If the reinforcements are not available when the day dawns, the juniors will leave first.
Going out of the tent, Cheng Song whispered to Shaoshang: "Little sister, we will go in two ways later. Master Ling's guards will protect you and Qiqi, and Shao Gong will also go together; I'll tie my uncle on my back and walk the other way."
Shao Shang was saddened in his heart, and forced a smile: "Can we think about the good, maybe reinforcements will come."
Cheng Song said coldly: "I can't leave my uncle, but we can't die together. If..., you will avenge me in the future!" After saying this, the tall and burly young man turned around Just left, for a moment, Shao Shang seemed to see the reliable back of Father Cheng.
In the cold and silent mountains and forests, everyone waited silently.
In the middle of the night, just as everyone was drowsy, there was a soft wailing sound from the front, and Shao Shang suddenly woke up. There were a lot of bamboo sticks on the ground in front of them. Could it be... not yet When she wanted to understand, there was another sound of fighting outside.
—The group of thieves actually touched the mountain before dawn!
Shao Shang had no choice but to draw his sword beside him, protected by two guards and leaned back. Seeing that the front was gradually lost, the leader of the guards ran back with a blood stained body: "Little lady, block in front of you. If you don't live, the humble and so on will protect you first."
Shao Shang calmly said: "Okay, but you have to bring sister Qiqi and my three brothers."
Over there, Shao Shang saw that Cheng Song had tied Wan Songbai to his back and was about to mount.
Under the shadows of the fire, the brothers and sisters glanced at each other from a distance, not knowing whether they would see each other again in the future, Shaoshang couldn't hold back his tears, and let out a low 'second brother' from his throat.
At this time, a splendid firework suddenly rose in the sky not far away, and the golden, purple, orange and red Mars formed a strange figure in the sky. The guard leader was overjoyed and shouted: "It's the young master, the young master is here! ... Brothers, hold on again, the young master has brought people!"
While speaking, he also took out a dark and slender cylindrical iron tool from his arms, and then pulled the fuse high up to the sky, and a huge and gorgeous firework instantly rose into the air - this time the young merchant saw clearly Now, in the sky is a ferocious and sturdy beast head.
With confidence, the courage of the people on his side suddenly increased greatly. Cheng Song quickly put down Wan Songbai and plunged into the battle. For a while, the sound of killing in the mountains and forests was thunderous. However, after a while, the rumbling of horses' hooves came from far and near. This gentle but dense mountain forest seemed to be sifted by vegetables on a dustpan. Dewdrops that could condense and form on the leaves rolled down one after another, wetting everyone's cheeks and clothes.
When the cavalry group came into view, Shaoshang immediately saw the familiar slender figure and the pair of human weapons in his hand.
She finally saw the rumored animal-patterned battle axe. It is said that the emperor paid thousands of gold. The former cast iron master was asked to make it by himself. The axe was sharp and bloody. There are no traces left, both sides of the axe body are engraved with bloodthirsty beasts waiting for food.
If the red phoenix gilded halberd in Ling Budo's hand was like a round of gorgeous golden crow, no one could stop it under the dazzling light, then this pair of pitch-black battle axes would be It is an iron-blooded ghost, silent and bloodthirsty.
Ling Budo is never fancy, just slashing and slashing, and then there is a **** sea of slaughter around him, harvesting life like death wielding a scythe, and the thick blood splashes on his fair skin His face was cold and indifferent.
It was the first time that Shao Shang saw his murder so close, and he was inexplicably frightened and confused.
, but knelt beside her.
Ling Budo put the battle axe in his right hand to his left, then slowly dismounted, standing more than ten paces away from Shaoshang, looking at her coldly.
Cheng Shaogong was no longer dizzy, he swallowed and swallowed, envy Wan Qiqi, who was sleeping on the edge of the rock, and then stepped back a few big steps with the desire to survive, leaving the stage to men and women main character.
Shao Shang was at a loss, she knew that the man was very angry, but she didn't know how to make him stop being so angry. He is now a person with military affairs, and I don't know if he has put down any important tasks to save himself.
When Ling Budo left the capital, she promised to 'wait for him', but...
"...Come here." Ling Budo said.
Shao Shang looked at him blankly.
Ling Budo raised his blood-stained right hand and gestured towards her.
Shao Shang suddenly felt aggrieved, and the skirt and robe flew into his broad arms.
Ling Budo's left hand holding a double axe hangs beside him, and his right hand strokes the girl's hair and back of the neck, sighing, "It's fine."
