"Uh...... Alas, why are you laughing anyway?" Zhou Bo just used the colloquial words of the twenty-first century, but he didn't expect Li Xiaoyu to really take it seriously.

"Anyway, I'm laughing, are you making me cry. Li Xiaoyu snorted.

"Forget it, in short, you are an official now, and you must be measured in what you do and speak in the future. Because your words and deeds not only represent yourself, but also represent the official authority of our envoys, understand?" Zhou Bo said seriously.

"Okay, okay, I know! I will definitely reflect on it in the future, and I will definitely pay more attention. Li Xiaoyu said happily, although her tone felt like perfunctory to Zhou Bo, but in her heart she really remembered Zhou Bo's words.

The two of them walked for a while, and finally arrived at Li Xiaoyu's house.

Zhou Bo walked directly to the main door, and just stretched out his hand to knock on the door, Li Xiaoyu hurriedly ran up and grabbed Zhou Bo from behind, and said eagerly in a low voice: "What are you doing?"

"I'll knock on the door and send you in?" Zhou Bo looked at Li Xiaoyu in confusion and said. "What's wrong? Are you still going to climb over the wall to get in?"

"Of course, if you knock on the door now, my dad will know that I have climbed over the wall, and he will definitely teach me a lesson. Why don't you get close to people!" Li Xiaoyu puffed out his mouth and glared at Zhou Bo angrily.

"I was going to sue your father, and he should teach you a lesson, only then can you remember it for a long time. Zhou Bo said solemnly.

"You, so all the nonsense you've told me along the way? Hmph, you, you're clearly trying to kill me. I was going to reflect on it. But now you want to sue my father. You. You're such a badass. Li Xiaoyu was about to cry anxiously, she didn't expect Zhou Bo to be so hard-hearted.

Zhou Bo looked at Li Xiaoyu's appearance and laughed secretly, he was actually deliberately scaring Li Xiaoyu.

"Okay, it's okay if you let me not knock on the door and tell your father, but you must remember what you said earlier. If you can keep your promise, I won't tell your father. Zhou Bo said.

"I was going to listen to you, but you want to sue my father. You're necrotic. Li Xiaoyu pouted, with a look of anger on his face.

"Then you just agreed?" Zhou ∧ ◆ dǐng ∧ ∧ ◆ small ∧ ◆ said, .2◇3.o⊙s_(); Beau asked in confirmation.

Li Xiaoyu even diǎn diǎn head.

"Okay, how are you going to get in?" Zhou Bo asked.

Li Xiaoyu took Zhou Bo to the back of the yard, pointed to a locust tree here, and said, "I climbed to the tree, then jumped on the wall of the yard, and then climbed down another tree in the yard." ”

Zhou Bo looked at the courtyard wall, it was as high as a foot and a half, and if Li Xiaoyu, a weak little woman, fell from above, she was afraid that she would definitely be injured.

"Can you do it? It's too dangerous. He said worriedly.

"Hey, hey. It's okay, I climb a lot. Li Xiaoyu finished speaking. He pulled up his skirt and immediately climbed towards the locust tree. She was so skillful that even in her skirt, she climbed to the trunk of the tree very quickly.

Zhou Bo looked up from below, and inadvertently saw the scenery under Li Xiaoyu's skirt. Although the inside of the skirt of ancient girls was not empty, and they usually wore a set of obscene pants, they still felt a little embarrassed when they looked at it like this. He quickly lowered his head, feeling a little embarrassed in his heart, this Li Xiaoyu was really too casual.

Li Xiaoyu quickly jumped to the courtyard wall, she glanced back at Zhou Bo, and said with a smile: "Zhou Yuanjun, what are you looking at?"

Zhou Bo sighed, still didn't look up, just said to the courtyard wall: "You go back quickly, the courtyard wall is so high, if you fall, it will be a very dangerous thing!"

Li Xiaoyu grimaced at Zhou Bo, laughed twice, and said, "Okay, see you tomorrow." I went in. With that, she turned and prepared to jump towards the big tree in the courtyard.

But at this time, Li Xiaoyu's feet suddenly slipped, and his body suddenly lost his balance. She insisted on trying to stabilize her body on the courtyard wall, and her body was like a kite with a broken string, swaying back and forth, and she was about to fall.

Zhou Bo, who was standing below, saw this scene and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Be careful!"

Li Xiaoyu finally stabilized and breathed a sigh of relief. She turned around and grinned at Zhou Bo below, and said, "Don't worry, I've said it all, I've crawled here for many years, this little accident shouldn't be anything, you go back and rest, I'll go back." ”

Zhou Bo saw that Li Xiaoyu was safe, and finally let out a sigh of relief, he imagined in his mind, if Li Xiaoyu really fell from the courtyard wall just now, what would the result be?

Li Xiaoyu stood firm this time before she was about to jump towards the big tree in the yard, when suddenly something fell from the top branch of the big tree and landed on her shoulder. She was slightly stunned, and reached out to touch the thing on her shoulder, only to think that it was soft, long, and still squirming.

When she took the long thing in front of her, it turned out to be a caterpillar, its dense legs wriggling.

"Ahh Who knew that this insect was very sticky, and he didn't get rid of it after throwing it several times, so he couldn't help but use all his strength to shake it hard.

The insect was thrown off, but Li Xiaoyu's body lost its balance again because of the excessive force.

Zhou Bo was going to turn back to the yamen, but when he heard Li Xiaoyu suddenly screaming again, he quickly turned around, and before he could open his mouth to ask what was going on, Li Xiaoyu was already about to fall off the courtyard wall.

He was taken aback, took three steps and made two steps, and ran up quickly.

Li Xiaoyu only felt that his back was cold, his feet fell into the air, and the whole person fell backwards. At this moment, she knew what it meant to make a mistake and become a thousand years of hatred, and beat the master to death, it seemed that she was finally going to be retributed!

"Ahh

She fell, but the expected pain didn't happen, and she felt as if her body had landed on a cotton ball. I don't feel any pain at all.

Zhou Bo originally planned to pick up Li Xiaoyu with both hands. But Li Xiaoyu's falling posture was impossible to catch at all. He hadn't had time to make any further adjustments. Li Xiaoyu had already fallen directly on his body.

Fortunately, he is a person who has practiced, and the powerful impact did not overwhelm him at first. But at the moment of catching Li Xiaoyu, his hand accidentally touched Li Xiaoyu's ****, and he quickly let go of his hand in a hurry, but this time the two of them lost their balance.

Li Xiaoyu didn't notice that she was being insulted in a panic, she quickly looked back and saw that she was lying in Zhou Bo's arms. She immediately became happy, and she was not in a hurry to get up from Zhou Bo. just smiled and asked, "Zhou Yuanjun, how are you?"

Zhou Bo's chest and back hurt badly, he gritted his teeth and said: "If you get up first, maybe I can still be saved, if you still press me like this, I'm afraid I will die of internal injuries......"

Li Xiaoyu was startled, quickly got up, and then went to help Zhou Bo, and hurriedly asked: "Won't you be so strict? Zhou Yuanjun, you must not die? If you die, who will pay me? You are dead." What should the people of the Guanghua Army do? Don't die!"

Zhou Bo was just talking casually, but he didn't expect Li Xiaoyu to take it seriously?

He said with some tears and laughter: "Little fish girl." I'm just exaggerating, look at the way you look worried. Don't worry, your body is so light, what can you crush me into?"

Li Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, pouted and said angrily: "Okay, you, you actually bluffed me?" After she finished speaking, she raised her little pink fist and hit Zhou Bo in the chest.

Zhou Bo took this punch, and the other party didn't use too much force anyway, so it didn't get in the way.

He got up from the ground, patted the dust off his body, and said, "Look, if you don't go through the gate, you have to climb over the wall." Fortunately, I am watching from the sidelines today, otherwise you would have been injured, and the heavens should not be called the earth and the earth. Don't do that again, do you hear me?"

Li Xiaoyu originally wanted to refute two sentences, but when she saw Zhou Bo was very serious, she didn't know what to say and write for a while. There was a warm current surging in her heart, and her little face was slightly hot, but she couldn't see anything in the darkness.

"Are you talking?" Zhou Bo waited for a while, and seeing that Li Xiaoyu didn't reply, he hurriedly urged again, "You promise me now that you will never go over the wall again in the future, you know?"

"Oh. Li Xiaoyu lowered his head and replied with a mutter.

When Zhou Bo saw Li Xiaoyu like this, he only thought that she was guilty in his heart, so he lowered his voice. He slightly diǎn diǎn head and said, "That's fine." Now how are you going to go back?"

"Of course, you have to climb over the wall and climb in. There was a bug that scared me a little bit, so I lost my footing, otherwise I wouldn't have fallen so easily. Li Xiaoyu muttered.

Zhou Bo didn't want to say anything more to Li Xiaoyu, he said, "Okay, you better go over the wall and go in." I'm here watching you until you're safely on the ground. ”

Li Xiaoyu smiled secretly, thinking to himself: Does he really care?

Then, Li Xiaoyu climbed the tree again, this time it was very smooth, and he safely climbed over the courtyard wall and landed at once.

Zhou Bo couldn't ask Li Xiaoyu about the situation loudly through the courtyard wall, so as not to wake up Li Fuzi, so he waited in place for a while, and after making sure that Li Xiaoyu didn't have any more accidents, he turned around and returned to the yamen.

After Zhou Bo turned around and left, Li Xiaoyu's little head poked out from the big tree in the courtyard wall. She looked at Zhou Bo's back, and the strange thought in her heart became stronger and stronger, but the more she thought about this thought, the faster her heart beated. She sighed, and after watching Zhou Bo disappear into the night, she slowly climbed down the tree trunk and returned to the room to rest.

The next morning, although Zhou Bo slept late yesterday, he still got up early, because there were still many important things to deal with today.

Of course, in addition, there was a lot of noise outside the yamen early this morning, which directly woke Zhou Bo up. It turned out that some locals and their families in the survey team yesterday, after discovering that they had not returned overnight, all ran to the yamen to ask questions, not knowing if something had happened.

When these family members heard the news of the army's entry into the city yesterday, they were worried that the survey team had an accident, but fortunately, Zhou Bo asked Li Shuping and others yesterday not to divulge the news of their encounter with mountain bandits for the time being, so in the face of the questioning of these family members, Zhou Bo still barely coped with it.

After sending these Kamcha family members away, Zhou Bo immediately sent people to invite Yue Yun, Wang Kui, Li Shuping, and Li Xuzhong. The four of them were resting in the palace last night, anyway, everyone is a marching and fighting person, and now it is the middle of summer, even if there is no quilt, they can sleep directly on the floor.

The noise in the yamen earlier had already woken them all up.

The four of them rushed to the lobby one after another, only to see Zhou Bo sitting behind the table with a very worried face.

"Zhou Yuanjun, why was it so noisy just now, what happened?" Yue Yun immediately asked.

He and Zhou Bo didn't sleep very well, and got up several times in the middle of the night to check the situation on various city walls. For a while, he even slept under the city walls, and then went on patrol before dawn, and then returned to the yamen.

Zhou Bo sighed, asked everyone to sit down first, and then ordered the guards to fetch some preserved fruits for breakfast.

"It's still yesterday to survey the team, and their family members just found the yamen to inquire about the situation. He said with some apprehension.

"In that case, let's prepare to set off now, search for the nest of that gang of mountain bandits, and do our best to save everyone. Yue Yun said a little impatiently.

"Don't worry, I suddenly had a new idea last night, so I wanted to talk to you about it. Zhou Bo cheered himself up, and looked calm.

Yue Yun asked, "Brother Zhou, do you have any new ideas?"

Zhou Bo said: "I think, let's see if we can recruit this group of mountain bandits." ”

Yue Yun's eyes immediately widened, and he said, "How is it possible? Brother Bi has already said that these mountain bandits are very likely to be the remnants of the Qi army, they have a deep hatred with us, and it is absolutely impossible to recruit peace." ”

Li Shuping originally wanted to say something, but suddenly felt that he should not speak at this time. He originally agreed with Yue Yun's words, those mountain bandits had killed several of his brothers, and they were all the regular army of the former Qi State, no matter in which aspect, they were all unacceptable.

It's just that he understood what Zhou Bo meant in an instant, so he stopped talking. Zhou Bo knew that now that the Guanghua army had just stabilized, it was not suitable to start a war again, not to mention that the mountain bandits were extremely difficult thieves, so they ran away if they couldn't beat them, and they ran back to occupy the mountain again as the king.

Rather than consuming with these mountain bandits, it is better to collect them for their own use, which can not only solve the problem of mountain bandits, but also increase the guard strength of the Guanghua Army, which is the so-called killing two birds with one stone.

Li Xuzhong was silent, he didn't have any opinion on recruiting or exterminating, if he recruited An, he would have more manpower and less trouble, and if he was exterminated, he would go to the battlefield in person.

Wang Kui said: "I think that Lord Zhou's idea is not unavoidable. Think about it, we are now short of soldiers and major generals, and all the infrastructure is not yet complete, so I am afraid that it will not be good to go to war again, and it will cost the people and money. What's more, if we can recruit security, we will not only be able to reduce trouble, but also increase our military strength?"

Yue Yun sneered and said, "If it was so easy to recruit An, there wouldn't be so many disputes in this world. Let's not talk about whether these mountain bandits are Qi Jun or not, even if they are ordinary mountain bandits, living in mountain nests all year round, making a living by robbing and looting. Even if these people are recruited, they are all a rabble, and they don't have any soldier's suzhì at all. (To be continued.) )
