After seeing off Yue Pengju, Hua Rong strolled back to the village, only to see a group of businessmen begging for water at the gate of Zhuangzi. In this war-torn country, the world was difficult and doing business was not easy. Over the years, when Hua Rong stayed in Zhuangzi, He often received people from all religions and streams, and got news from all over the world from their mouths. Just as he was about to go over to chat for a few words, he saw the leader, who was of medium build, with a dark complexion and a few strands of burnt yellow three-tooth beard on his chin.
This guy looks so familiar.
She took another look and saw the man drinking water from a large bowl, as if he had been thirsty for a long time. As soon as he put down the bowl, Hua Rong was shocked and immediately remembered that this man turned out to be King Qin's subordinate. The pirate named Li Xing. Li Xing is still an important little leader.
She was afraid that Li Xing would recognize her, so she turned sideways, turned around and left. She could only secretly be on guard, why did this group of pirates end up on land and pretend to be doing business
Now Zhuangzi's defense is empty, and there are often people fighting against the autumn wind. Who knows what the intentions of these bandits are? She was very vigilant and immediately returned to the village. According to the agreed code, she summoned several villagers to set up defenses.
Those pirates were all good at martial arts, but thinking that Ruda happened to be here today, she felt a little more relaxed. She hurriedly walked in and found Ruda taking a nap sitting on a chair in the hall, with his Zen staff crooked in his hand and snoring loudly.
"Brother Lu..."
She called twice, and Ruda woke up: "Amei, what happened?"
"A group of strong men have arrived."
Lu Da picked up his Zen staff. He was bold and careful, followed Hua Rong out, and immediately observed the group of "criminals" from a distance. However, he saw that the villains did not make any movement and were still chatting with the banker.
Li Xing was returning the bowl to the farmer and thanking him, when he saw a woman walking past in a hurry. He glanced at the side and she looked familiar. He immediately looked closely, but only her back was visible.
In his early years, he went ashore with the King of Qin and rushed to search for Hua Rong's whereabouts within a hundred miles of the capital. But her hometown had long been deserted, her relatives were scattered, and there was no news. They all tried to persuade the King of Qin that Hua Rong must have been buried long ago. However, King Qin refused to give up no matter what. Over the years, he never stopped sending people across the country to search for him.
This time, King Qin originally sent Li Xing south to handle some important matters, because Li Xing and several pirates had met Hua Rong many times before and were very familiar with her appearance. Therefore, he was ordered not to let go of the opportunity and visit Hua Rong on the way. Check carefully. Along the way, they will pay attention to any familiar woman. This time, it is no exception. They immediately ask the banker next to them: "Who is this girl who just passed by?"
When the villager heard that he actually asked the woman in the village, bandits were rampant now, he immediately became vigilant: "That is the young lady who is an old man and a strategist..."
The old husband, Mr. Zhong, was also quite intimidating. Li Xing thought to himself that this woman was a young lady from the Zhong family, so naturally she could not be Hua Rong. Moreover, he himself had long believed that Hua Rong was definitely dead, so it was not a big deal. Shangxin, now that he had drank the water, thanked him and led everyone on the way.
As soon as the group left, Ruda asked: "Amei, do you know this group?"
"The leader of the robbers is someone I have met. His name is Li Xing. From now on, we must be careful when they come to the village again."
Lu Da saw that the world was becoming more and more uneasy, with bandits appearing at any time, and it was dangerous for Hua Rong to stay here alone, so he said: "Amei, you might as well follow me to the Ninth Prince's tent..."
Hua Rong hesitated for a moment: "I don't know if the Ninth Prince will allow it."
"This dynasty's female general from the Yang Clan is known all over the world. You are good at riding and shooting, and are a hundred times better than those pustified officers and soldiers. Why would the Ninth Prince not allow it?"
She was overjoyed and said immediately: "In that case, I will go with you tomorrow."
Let's talk about Li Xing and others. After traveling for twenty or thirty miles, they met a tea shed on the road. The weather was hot, and people from all walks of life in the tea shed were playing cattle from all over the world.
An old man said: "The bandits were finally eliminated, thank God."
Another man was beaming: "The leader of the team, Yue Pengju, is a man of great talent, with a spear and a big white horse. He is invincible. I heard that the bandit leader Tao Jun was captured alive by him in one or two rounds..."
“…”
Li Xing was shocked when he heard the words "Yue Pengju". Couldn't the young man who fled with Hua Rong be called "Yue Pengju"
Could it be someone with the same name? How can there be such a coincidence in this world? He pretended to be very interested: "Master Yue will always be strong..."
"What makes you stronger when you are old? Sir, I hear you are a foreigner. Master Yue was in his weak years, and the Xuanfu envoys celebrated his achievements. I was lucky enough to meet him from a distance. Since ancient times, heroes have been born in their youth..."
Fortunately, the ages match.
A young man named Yue Pengju, a woman whose profile looked like Hua Rong - he patted his thigh and immediately realized that maybe the person that King Qin was looking for was really still living in this world, and was right in front of him.
King Qin's reward is getting higher and higher year by year. Anyone who can find Hua Rong will not only be rewarded with thousands of taels of gold, but also be immediately promoted to the second king. Li Xing's eyes lit up, he immediately paid for the tea and led everyone to turn around and head to Zhongjiazhuang. Go.
After explaining some matters to Uncle Zhou and simply packing a parcel, Hua Rong took his bow and arrows and mounted a green horse, while Lu Da rode a khaki horse. The two of them whipped up their whips and headed outside the village.
As soon as he left the village, he heard the sound of horse hoofbeats in the distance, which was very sudden and raised a large amount of dust. Hua Rong secretly thought that it was not good, but looking from a distance, it turned out that it was Li Xing and others returning.
It is naturally not difficult to deal with this group of people, but if they were to recognize him and provoke the disaster star of King Qin, I'm afraid there would be endless trouble.
She raised her helmet, only revealing her eyebrows. Luda saw that she didn't want to meet this group of people, and immediately said: "Mei, don't panic, we will drive them away after the Sa family has made a fool of themselves."
Li Xing and others had already reined in their horses. He had already seen that the "man" immediately dressed in men's clothing was vaguely the figure of "Miss Zhong" he had seen before. At this time, he was confident in his heart and immediately said loudly: "The villain Li Xing serves Qin." The king has ordered me to invite my wife..."
Sure enough, King Qin sent someone to look for him.
When Luda heard the noise of the slave bird, he jumped off his horse, dragged his Zen staff and went to meet her, "What is your name? Who is your wife?"
Li Xing and others suddenly saw a strong man with an angry, diamond-like look blocking the way. They all jumped off their horses, raised their swords and spears, and slashed at Ruda.
Luda danced with a Zen staff like a tiger, and within seven or eight rounds, nine out of ten pirates were injured. Li Xing saw that the situation was not good, and was about to run away, but he heard a "swish" sound and an arrow shot His turban was taken off. If the archer hadn't killed anyone before and showed mercy, his life would have been in danger.
From a distance, I heard Ruda's angry laughter: "If you guys dare to come back again, the Sa family will definitely tell you that you will never come back..."
How could Li Xing dare to look back? He was running fast, but he was secretly thinking that it was bad luck. How could that woman be the charming Mrs. Hua
After running for seven or eight miles, he stopped when he saw that Ruda and others were not chasing him, and that his companions were not seriously injured.
When he returned to Zhongjiazhuang, he thought that Hua Rong was a woman who was taken away by force, but he didn't expect to suffer such a big loss, and he didn't even take a photo of her. He was no longer reckless this time, and immediately ordered everyone to disguise themselves and quietly went there. Xuanfu sent the envoy to the camp to find out whether Yue Pengju was the young man on the island.
As long as Yue Pengju's identity is confirmed and he repays the favor to King Qin, he won't be afraid of Hua Rong escaping again.
After sending Li Xing and others away, Hua Rong finally breathed a sigh of relief. When the two of them were on the road again, Luda suddenly said: "Mei, forty miles ahead is the Xuanfu envoy's camp. Why don't you go see your brother first?"
Hua Rongyuan also had this plan, and upon hearing Luda's suggestion, he readily agreed, and the two of them went straight to the Xuanfu envoy's camp.
The soldiers on duty recognized Ruda and immediately reported it to Yue Pengju.
In just a moment, Yue Pengju hurriedly came in. Seeing the two men in full gear, looking like they were going on a long trip, he said happily: "Sister, Brother Lu, you came just in time. I regret that I didn't have time to inform you, because I also want to go to Xiangzhou with the army." , it will set off in half an hour, and we will be traveling together... "
Hua Rong was overjoyed.
Many of this team were newly recruited wanderers. Yue Pengju made some arrangements, and Hua Rong and Lu Da mixed in and set off with the team.
Li Xing and others mingled among the people at the intersection and saw this army of more than a thousand people marching out in great force. The officers and soldiers at the head were riding big white horses and carrying spears and spears. They were very majestic. When they got closer, they could see clearly. , isn’t this how the boy on the island has grown up
He was overjoyed and immediately made a secret whistle, and several pirates immediately left from all directions. When they arrived at the agreed place, he couldn't help being ecstatic and said loudly: "Brothers, we are going to make a fortune. The lady has been found. We will report to the king immediately and set it up." It’s a big head start, hahaha…”
Hua Rong followed the army all the way to Xiangzhou. On the way, there was already a turmoil and frequent wars.
After traveling a few dozen miles, we arrived at Jigong Mountain. People all along the way were fleeing. They said that the Jin Kingdom had destroyed the Liao Kingdom and captured the Liao Kingdom's emperor. Now the Jin Kingdom's general Jin Wushu led his troops southward and was invincible all the way. They had conquered We have visited many cities and are heading towards Huatai City.
This place is less than fifty miles away from Huatai City. That evening, Yue Pengju camped on the spot. In order to prevent the Jin army from attacking, the patrol team did not dare to relax at all.
Just as we were stationed, we saw smoke and dust rising in front of us, and suddenly a large group of invading Jin troops appeared, approaching menacingly. Judging from the smoke and dust, there must be more than 8,000 people coming, but our own troops were less than 1,000, and these had not experienced training. The stragglers were about to flee immediately, but were stopped by Yue Peng holding a gun.
Hua Rong held the bow and arrow, while Luda waved his Zen staff and whispered: "Mei, don't be afraid..."
"If you were afraid, I wouldn't follow you."
Luda saw that she was already on full alert. Yue Pengju glanced at her in confusion. The two siblings exchanged glances and understood each other. Yue Pengju immediately relaxed and shouted: "Although there are many Jin invaders, they don't understand our situation and dare not Attack rashly. If we escape, they will definitely see our flaw and take advantage of the situation to kill us. It will be difficult for us to survive. It is better to rush over while their foothold is not stable and win in the chaos... "
After saying that, he brandished his spear, took the lead, and broke into the enemy group, followed by the soldiers.
The general leading the army was none other than Jin Wushu, who swept through thousands of troops. He ignored the overwhelming fighting power of the Song Dynasty and sent only one deputy general to fight. The deputy general screamed and rushed towards Yue Pengju. Yue Pengju used his gun to swing away and moved forward. Go and hit the lieutenant right in the heart.
Jin Wushu was shocked. He was about to go into battle in person when he saw a sharp arrow shooting towards him. Fortunately, he was able to dodge quickly. Even so, the sharp arrow also hit his shoulder. When he saw that the person who was shooting the arrow, he was shot into the shoulder. She was thin in appearance and had beautiful features, just like a woman. This surprise was no small matter. She also saw Yue Peng entering the formation with a long spear, rubbing his wounds and dying next to him. And a big man wielding a Zen staff was no less impressive and invincible. , and without discerning the actual strength of the opponent's troops, he turned his horse's head, ordered the withdrawal of troops and fled...
