Lu Ah Liu's forehead was sweating layer by layer, and in a panic, he grabbed the subordinate who came to deliver the message, "Who wears this sword?" ”

The subordinate was shocked and stumbled even more, "Yes, yes, it is a small, Xiaolang admired." ”

"Let's have a meeting first." Lao He reminded slightly.

Lu Aliu let go of his hand and drank: "Don't worry about it, please come." After finishing speaking, he straightened his hair bun, smoothed the folds on his robe, and strode towards the main hall as he adjusted his expression. When he entered the main hall, as soon as he sat down, as if there were spikes on the high chair, he jumped up and changed his sitting to standing, and when he thought about it, he simply walked to the door of the main house, stood and waited.

After a while, someone led a man with a long posture and a graceful bearing, and Lu Aliu stood on the steps and looked at him, looking at him with a gentle face and a calm expression, but with an unclear fierce aura. He hurriedly stepped forward, bowed his hand, and the people who came returned the salute gently, and the two entered the main hall and sat down together, and not only did not one of the people in the courtyard disperse, but also gathered some others, and looked into the main hall with their heads probed. Rua Liuhu stood up, glanced around the courtyard, and closed the door with a frown.

None of the people in the courtyard had any intention of leaving, and stood quietly in the courtyard. After about three or four teas, the door of the main hall creaked open, and the two walked out from within, looking at each other respectfully, smiling, and not knowing what they had said. The next day, Lu Aliu gathered all his troops and went to the narrow valley to rob a team of approaching merchants, and promised to take the looted goods to join Li Jiaerlang, and since then he has changed from a grass coward to a regular team.

At this time, Lu Aliu was lying on his stomach among the grass and trees and thinking about the events of the past two days, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt suspense, and the heavens and men were fighting in his mind, so he heard the young man who looked up at the road on his heel whispered: "There is really a caravan coming." Everyone became nervous, Lu Aliu suddenly tightened his bowstring, the pores of his body trembled, and he stared intently at the faint dust raised in the distance, and he was sure that it was a caravan, he leaned out and gestured a few times towards the opposite mound, and among the weeds of the opposite mound, a head popped out, and nodded his head definitely, and everyone held their breath and hibernated among the weeds and bushes.

The bell of the caravan gradually approached from a distance, and Lu Ah listened carefully to the footsteps of the horse caravan, only listening to the sound of those footsteps neatly and uniformly, and the strength was thick and even, indeed it did not look like an ordinary merchant porter, but it was like a trained soldier on the march, just as Ah Lang, who gave him advice, said, it is very likely that the escort of the goods is not an ordinary caravan, but I am afraid that the soldiers are disguised. Lu Ah Liu's heart couldn't help but admire, and he unconsciously left all his previous hesitations behind.

Gradually advancing in the light yellow dust, two horses suddenly ran out, all the way to the narrow valley galloping, the heads behind the mounds on both sides were a little uncontrollable, quietly reached out to the iron rods, hoe rakes, long knives and other "blades" around him, just waiting for Lu Ah Liu's first order to rush down, and even a more anxious person almost jumped out of the cover of the grass and trees.

Lu Ah Liu silently recited in his heart the words of the Ah Lang before coming to ambush, if there are a small number of horses in front, you must let them go first, such a caravan must be cautious, there must be a few spies who are looking ahead, and you must not start if you don't see the baggage box. Thinking of this, Lu Aliu turned his head and kept pressing down on his palm, signaling that the person behind him should not move.

Sure enough, after the two horses had galloped past, the horse's bell rang, and they kicked and taped through the smoke and dust in the distance. Seeing the two horses running through the narrow valley below, about half a pillar of incense, the horse bell rang loudly, and the slight tremor from the ground became more and more obvious, Lu Aliu raised his neck, turned his head and whispered: "Whether the brothers can be reborn in the future and not be thieves, hungry, hungry, cold and clothed, it depends on what happened today." Although the tone was low, it sounded a huge urge to the hungry men behind him, and everyone's hearts were hot, some people reached out and held the "blade" tightly, and others put their hands on the boulder unconsciously added strength, and for a time the atmosphere was tense and agitated, as if there were countless small sparks beating on the extremely dry and fluffy dead branches.

One carriage after another, pulling the heavy cargo compartment, slowly approached the bend, and the grooms who drove the carriage were silent, intently driving the carriage, and the whole convoy was so quiet that only the sound of the bell could be heard. Rua Liu stared closely at the caravan that had entered the narrow passage below him, and cautiously raised his right hand, seeing that half of the procession was already under his nose, he gritted his teeth and waved his raised right hand violently.

In an instant, there was a thunderous rumbling sound from top to bottom of the mound, and large boulders continued to tumble rapidly downward from the slopes on both sides. The horsemen and servants who were escorting the delivery cart below drew their swords and lined up with their backs to the carriage at great speed, surrounding the goods in the middle.

On another mound that was a little higher behind the mound, a young man in a dark green robe held a long knife in front and back, and looked forward, seeing this, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at the long-bodied man standing beside him, "Brother-in-law, they are really soldiers who have changed their clothes, and they are well-trained, how can ordinary coachmen and servants react so quickly and calmly." If those soldiers and generals who are really included in the formation, they will be killed before they can get on the battlefield, and they will have to be investigated, but will they cause trouble? ”

The worried Xiaolang General is Yinghua, who is carrying all kinds of worries at this time, for a moment he is afraid of causing trouble, and at the same time he is worried about the bravery of the soldiers below. "Do you want me to help them?"

Before the words fell, the valley was filled with the rumbling sound of boulders rolling to the bottom of the valley, accompanied by screams one after another, and then looked closely, the horsemen who would line up with their blades were all crushed by the boulders, and the formation was immediately scattered, and people were afraid that more than half of them had been lost. The cries of Rua Liu sounded on the mound in front of him at the right time, and the shouts on the mound on the opposite side of the narrow valley were united, and the big man with all kinds of sharp weapons and clubs screamed and rushed down the mound, slashing and smashing all the way, mixed with cries of pain and screams, and suddenly made a mess.

Du Ruyan looked at it indifferently, and said unhurriedly: "The ones below are just rogue robbers, how can you, as a general of the Tang State Mansion, be mixed in, if you teach people to shake it out in the future, won't it ruin Erlang's reputation." As for whose soldiers were killed and whose faces were beaten, what do we have to do with it? When someone searched for it, the 200 or so grass cowards had long been nowhere to be found, and they all scattered into the Tang State Mansion and became government soldiers. Besides, the private envoys will do secret business, even if the initiator suffers a big loss, how dare he come forward and say a word. ”

At the mention of Erlang's reputation, Yinghua took a soft breath, stood silently to the side, and remained silent again, quietly watching the battle situation in the narrow valley. Because the reckless men below who were hit hard first, and then couldn't withstand the red-eyed reckless men, they were neatly and quickly cleaned up in a short time. Lu A counted at six o'clock, and there were only about a dozen alive left, if it weren't for the seemingly sick and weak little man who ordered a few to be left alive, these more than ten people would have been killed.

Lu A Liuzhi was satisfied with the command of the other hundred or so people who had not participated in the battle, and opened the cargo compartments one by one to inspect them, and it was really a piece of coarse cloth, which was said to be coarse cloth, but the quality and texture were superior, and it was very rare in the chaos of soldiers and horses. The people hurriedly drove the undamaged or poorly damaged carriage out of the rocks and hurriedly moved it upside down.

"Then you went to Jincheng County, and when you arrived at the place, you honestly told the lord's house that the goods had been robbed, but do you understand?" Rua Liu patted one of the leading coachmen on the neck and whispered in his ear. The coachman lived the rest of his life after the robbery, and he was afraid that the master would punish him for losing the goods, so he couldn't tell whether he was happy or crying on his face, and he nodded again and again with a strange expression.

Just wanted to pick him up, Lu Aliu suddenly remembered something, grabbed him by the collar, and carried him back to him, groped in his arms for a while, took out a handkerchief with the words on it and shook it open, "Can you read words?" ”

The coachman craned his neck and nodded, and Rua Liu shoved the silk handkerchief into his hand, causing him to read it. The coachman shook his hands and recited in his voice: "Basket a bamboo pole to catch Yu Qi." Don't you think about it, it's far away. The fountain is on the left, and the water is on the right. The woman has a line, far from the brothers and parents. ”

What a poem of Raushzi, such a tongue-twister. The sick and squeamish Ah Lang was so strange, wouldn't it be over if he robbed something, but what kind of veil did he have to pass on? Lu Aliu didn't understand what was said on the silk handkerchief at all, and muttered to himself for a while, but with a satisfied look on his face, he followed the instructions: "That's right." Give this veil to the Gu lady of your master's family, be sure to ask her to take a look. But if she doesn't look, you read it to her. If it's not good, then you and your family won't bypass it, can you understand? ”

The coachman nodded hurriedly, put away the silk handkerchief, and went on the road with fear and worry, and then hurried to Jincheng County.
