Section 8 A blessing in disguise

As soon as he heard Xiao Jin's name, Chang Yun's sharp eyes suddenly softened a lot, it was the first beloved girl when she was young, how could she not tremble for it. He secretly thought that it was better to make a plan and fulfill a dream that haunted him. Then Chang Yun said: "Let's talk about it, I'll see if it's true, and then consider whether to spare your life." ”

Lu Qingsong had no reason to refuse, and at this time he had already broken up with Qiyue City, and it was understandable to betray them, so he said loudly: "What I said is true, I was originally a subordinate of Xue Lihan in Qiyue City, but now I have parted ways with them, Xue Lihan is the leader of the bloody Tianshan Mountain, and your little junior brother Xue Yu is Xue Lihan's only son, his real name is Xue Lengfeng, in order to sneak into the Tianshan Mountains and steal the dragon-seeking Yujue in the Yujue Cave, he was named Xue Yu ten years ago, even in front of my father and his grandfather, also calls himself Xue Yu, so few people know his real name. The fact that Tianshan was short of manpower that time was revealed to Xue Lihan was revealed by him, so your enemy should be Qiyue City! ”

Lu Qingsong swallowed and spit, gasped a few times and continued: "Give saliva to drink, last time because you heard some secrets, you had to make this decision, but I dare to guarantee that I left early on the day of the bloody Tianshan Mountain, and I definitely did not participate, so I turned my back on Qiyue City." Brother Chang, for the sake of our Xiao Jin, you will surround my life! I don't want that cheats either. ”

At this time, Chang Yun was already gritting his teeth when he heard this, and he couldn't wait to kill the person in front of him immediately, but he knew that no matter what, he was also Xiao Jin's father, besides, if what he said was true, if he did not participate in the bloodbath of Tianshan, Chang Yun would not bear to kill him.

Seeing that Chang Yun didn't say a word, Lu Qingsong didn't dare to say any more, for fear that his words would reveal some flaws, but he had completely brushed himself off in this speech. The two looked at each other for a long time, I don't know when they both fell asleep, the long night was like an anxious heart, how could not wait for the day of hope, the stars in the sky were still twinkling there, people were asleep, and the bright moon was still in the air telling the joys and sorrows of the world.

Unconsciously, the night passed, the sunrise of this day seemed to be much earlier than usual, the fog in the mountain gradually appeared in the eyes of Chang Yun, the sky was not yet bright, you could hear the rooster crowing in the distance of the mountain col, the woodcutter in the mountain also got up early and hummed the song of chopping wood all the way into the mountain to chop wood, the blood-red maple leaves were stained with pearl-sized dew, crystal clear, reflecting the red sun and morning glow in the east, like a blood-colored agate stone, and like a scarlet foam that was about to burst.

Several people around him are still immersed in their sleep, they have not yet woken up, the abbot is still sitting firmly like a clock, Tan Zhi's saliva is also flowing, and the snoring sound is incompatible with this quiet mountain scene, Lu Qingsong slept very soundly, and he couldn't see that his life was on the verge of death, Chang Yun smiled bitterly, and said in a low voice: "I didn't expect the enemy who I was looking forward to day and night was in front of me, but I never had the idea of killing him, Chang Yun, Chang Yun, look at your legs, think about the two scars on your face, you are really a coward!" ”

Chang Yun stared into the distance, and after a long time, several people woke up one after another, of course, Tan Zhi was the last to wake up. As soon as he woke up, he pretended not to be asleep, sat upright, and posed as if he had been meditating all night. But when he saw Lu Qingsong who was tied up by five flowers in front of him, he was dumbfounded, it seemed that there was a big battle last night, and he slept too soundly to realize it.

"Alright, alright! Don't pretend, get up and clean up, this dog thief will be in your care, don't be careless. Shangguan Que said to him with a smile, Tan Zhi also knew that he was ashamed, and touched his head embarrassedly: "Hehe, wrap it on the poor monk!" ”

After rushing for a long time, several people finally took Lu Qingsong to the city of Chuzhou. Chuzhou is the border defense of Southern Liang, there are heavy troops guarding around the city, Shangguan Que saw this battle and found that something was wrong, if they saw their own gang of people tied up and walked in, wouldn't it be troublesome. Shangguan Que said: "Brothers, wait, now the officers and soldiers in the city are very difficult to deal with, it is better for the abbot and me to go and arrange it first, and then arrange for you to enter the city." Everyone nodded, so they found a small tea pavilion outside the city and sat down, and the abbot followed Shangguan Que to the city to arrange, and the three of them rested here.

Lu Jin arrived in Chang'an City, and after visiting, he found nothing, and he had no experience in the rivers and lakes, so he had nowhere to go in a few days. But fortunately, I brought a lot of coils with me when I left, so I found a hotel to live in.

Lu Jin, who lives in Yaowang Valley all the year round, has no worries about food and clothing, and usually doesn't spend much money, now understands the value of money, and suddenly ordered a table of the most expensive dishes in Zuixianfang, the first restaurant in Chang'an, and she sat there alone, eating and drinking, and this situation immediately attracted the attention of everyone next to her. The store is also afraid, even if you have money, you won't order so many famous dishes alone! Worried that she would have no money to settle the bill and come to eat the overlord meal, the shopkeeper arranged for someone to inquire.

Not long after, a big man with a greasy face shook over and asked Lu Jin, "The little girl has a lot of appetite, have you finished eating so many dishes?" "It's like this at home, if you can't finish eating, you can give it to your subordinates, what's the matter?" Do you want to eat together? Lu Jin asked nonchalantly and ate at the same time.

"No, no, no, I won't bother the girl Yaxing, but this account, the girl should settle it now." Dahan was taken aback when he heard this, so he went straight to the door and asked her to settle the bill early. Lu Jin found out that the person sitting opposite was originally arranged by the shopkeeper to collect the accounts, and she felt a little disdainful in her heart, and then she took out a night pearl from the money bag twice, which was the size of a pigeon's egg, which was really precious and abnormal!

"Give! How? Is it enough? Lu Jin asked curiously. The big man's eyes were straight, I was afraid that he had never seen such a big night pearl in his life! Dahan nodded hurriedly, and carefully held the Night Pearl to the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper's face was frightened, and he took the Night Pearl tremblingly, and played with it carefully.

This is indeed a good night pearl of the East China Sea, and the shopkeeper is really making a lot of money this time. Everyone was dumbfounded when they saw her take out this pearl, but the world is not good, and the people's hearts are not ancient. Taking advantage of the shopkeeper's inattention, one of them ran into the back hall early and sprinkled some sweat medicine in the eight-treasure bird's nest ginseng soup ordered by Lu Jin.

The amount of medicine is not large, so I can't eat a reason, and after a while, this soup was served, although it is a pharmaceutical family, but she has not noticed, or put a bowl of soup in front of her, and drink it all. After drinking the soup, Lu Jin touched his belly, felt a little full, and was about to go out.

I realized that something was wrong when I got around, my head was actually a little dizzy, and I thought about it again, I must have eaten it, and I didn't pay much attention to it, so I staggered out of the door, and the two of them also ran out. After walking for a short time, he came to a secluded alley, and Lu Jin felt a little weak at this time, and gradually he could only stand firm by holding on to the wall.

The two looked at each other and smiled, and when they saw that the time was ripe, they rushed up together, one hugged Lu Jin from behind, and the other rushed to her, reaching out to pull the money bag on her waist down, Lu Jin is also a martial arts practitioner after all, trying his best to pull the money bag, the person who pulled the money bag saw that he couldn't be so deadlocked, and kicked Lu Jin in the stomach, Lu Jin fell to the ground with the person behind her, she rubbed her bulging belly desperately, and wanted to spit out all the food just now.

The two people took the money bag and were about to flee, but the end of the alley instantly rushed out of a man, and rushed straight towards them, without saying a word, he flew up and kicked one of the men to the ground, and the other person immediately ran in the opposite direction when he saw this, but the man fell in front of him one by one, grabbed the other person's shoulders with both hands, raised his legs, and put his knees on his stomach, and the man's eyes bulged out, and he was no longer able to fight back, lying on the ground, screaming.

Seeing that the crisis had been eliminated, the man took the money bag and hurriedly ran to Lu Jin's side, and helped Lu Jin who was lying on the ground. Is the girl alright? ”

Lu Jin was dazed, and his stomach hurt very much, so he just shouted in his whisper: "Money. Pocketbook! Then he fainted, and the man soon understood that the girl had been robbed, so he arranged for the robber to be taken to the official mansion, and he himself took the girl back. This man is none other than Hu Tianming, the new leader of the Beggar Gang, who happened to pass by here today, and when he saw that the road was uneven, he drew a knife to help. People in the rivers and lakes are like this, no matter what the friendship is, as long as you are in trouble, as long as I can help, I will not stand idly by, this is the spirit of the rivers and lakes.

Arrived at the rudder of the beggar gang, after Hu Tianming placed Lu Jin, he went to meet Yang Xian, who was then the general of the Northern Zhou Dynasty at this time, since the last time they worked together to eradicate Yuwen Hu, the beggar Hu Tianming became friends with Yang Xian, today Yang Xian happened to visit, Hu Tianming arrived in the living room and quickly smiled and apologized: "Brother Yang has been waiting for a long time, and he just rescued a woman who was robbed at the intersection, just settled, dare to ask Brother Yang to come today, what is the so-called matter?" ”

"Brother Hu is really chivalrous, and he will save people he doesn't know. But little brother, can't I come to the door if I'm fine? Is it more difficult for you to enter this rudder than the palace? Yang Xian said jokingly. Hu Tianming laughed: "We beggars are dividing the rudder, Brother Yang can come whenever he wants, but I'm afraid that Brother Yang has another secret when he comes today, right?" ”

Yang Xian saw that Hu Tianming had broken it, so he said bluntly: "In front of Brother Hu, I won't sell Guanzi anymore, I came here today, I want to ask Brother Hu to go to the Mengshan Martial Arts Conference to see the excitement, and I can also see my second brother." "As I expected, I also have this intention, and I am going to go to Mengshan in two days, but Mengshan is located in Chuzhou, which is in the territory of Liang State, your identity... Does your father agree? Hu Tianming asked suspiciously.

Yang Xian's face was embarrassed, but he also said without concealment: "I can't care so much, I stay in Chang'an all day, I'm about to get sick, it's still interesting to explore the rivers and lakes." Besides, with you by my side to protect me, what am I worried about, so it's decided, two days later, at the gate of the south gate of Chang'an, I will not be gone! "If that is the case, then it is a certainty." Hu Tianming also agreed boldly.

"Report to the Lord! The woman you saved just now has woken up under the doctor's treatment and is clamoring to see you! After Hu Tianming heard the report, he hurriedly got up, said goodbye to Yang Xian, and trotted to the back hall. Yang Xian was also curious, and he had never seen Hu Tianming, who had always been calm, so nervous, so he followed together.

After Lu Jin saw Hu Tianming, he immediately asked, "What kind of place is this?" Who are you? Did you save me? Hu Tianming saw that this girl was so energetic when she woke up, and asked east and west, thinking it was very interesting, so he replied with a smile: "The girl was robbed by robbers, and I am bringing you back, my name is Hu Tianming, and this is the rudder of the beggar gang." ”

"Beggar gang?" Lu Jin's eyes flashed after hearing the beggar gang, and he asked, "The beggar gang? Do you know the leader of the beggar gang? I'm in a hurry with him! "You girl, people are kind enough to save you, why don't you even say a word of thanks?" Yang Xian interjected. "Who are you? I want you to take care of it, he saved me, not you! Lu Jin pursed his lips and replied.

"Hey. . . I said you... Before Yang Xian finished speaking, Hu Tianming interrupted him: "Okay, okay, Brother Yang, don't get in the way, then what are you looking for the beggar gang leader?" I do know him. "Oh? I can only talk to the leader of the beggar gang about this matter, and I can't tell you, dare to ask my brother if he can recommend him? As soon as Lu Jin's words fell, the disciples next to him burst into laughter.

Lu Jin didn't know what was going on, Hu Tianming didn't want to fool her anymore, and replied with a smile: "I am the leader of the beggar gang, dare to ask the girl what is the reason for me?" Lu Jin was dumbfounded, the young man in front of him looked a few years older than him, at most in his early thirties, he would be the leader of the beggar gang!

She looked at him suspiciously, only to see him take out a dog-beating stick from behind her, and then it dawned on her. Unexpectedly, she was blessed by misfortune, and she actually found the leader of the beggar gang. She didn't say anything, hurriedly pulled Hu Tianming inside, and asked in a low voice: "Hey, beggar gang leader, let me ask you, do you know someone named Duan Shuai?" ”

Hu Tianming was shocked, this girl actually knew Duan Shuai, the benefactor of the beggar gang, and was curious: "Who are you Duan Shuai?" I do know him. "Then tell me where he is?" I.. I'm his friend ... Only then did Hu Tianming understand that this girl was Duan Shuai's friend, and he was very happy, so he said: "Duan Shuai is the great benefactor of my beggar gang, since the girl is a friend of Brother Duan, then she is also a friend of our beggar gang, dare to ask the girl's name?" ”

Lu Jin let out a long sigh and said reassuringly: "This is good! My name is Lu Jin, and I came to Chang'an this time to find Brother Duan, my sister should be with him, I want to find my sister through him. "I see, Duan Shuai is in Mengshan at this time, and we will rush to Mengshan in two days!" Hu Tianming said, Lu Jin's eyes rolled after hearing this, and begged him with a smile, Hu Tianming was also a little happy in his heart, and he didn't know where he got his joy, and immediately said that he would take her with him, and introduced Yang Xian to her: "Yao, this is Duan Shuai's righteous brother, Yang Xian, General Yang!" "Yo! It turned out that he was still an official, no wonder the party was so big! Lu Jin said disdainfully. Yang Xian was furious, but he had nothing to do, so he had to give up. After the beggars cleaned up, they made an appointment to rush to Mengshan two days later.
