Chapter 34: The Xue Family (1)

The state of Chen is at war, and it is obviously not peaceful, but there is no war in the territory of Wu. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Therefore, Chen Xiu decided to make a detour through Wu and then go south, taking a boat from Taishang Lake to Weiguo. Chen Xiu has no other strengths, but he is familiar with large and small roads, bypassing official roads, and walking some small roads, he can even meet village markets from time to time.

The child seemed to sleep upside down, sleeping to death during the day and making a great fuss at night. The day was about to get hot, Chen Xiu was upset, and he couldn't sleep because of him, so he said that he was going to throw him aside. Therefore, he preferred to drive, leaving Lu Yu in the car to watch the child.

After walking like this for four or five days, I suddenly saw a small group of people in front of me. Chen Xiu was shocked?

The horse slowed down and moved forward slowly.

"There are more than a dozen Wu soldiers and two horses in front. It's too late to turn around and run now. Chen Xiu whispered into the carriage.

Lu Yu poked his head out and saw that there were only a dozen or so people in the gang, but there were cavalry and infantry, and the weapons were also messy, although they were wearing armor, they didn't look like soldiers, "I'm afraid they are some bandits, and I don't know where to get the armor." Seeing that the mountain road was narrow, he could only rush over, so he thought about it, and said, "You go slowly, and when you get closer to them, just wave your horsewhip." You don't have to worry about anything else. As he spoke, he drew his sword and stared out through the curtain.

When he got closer, Chen Xiu became nervous, and suddenly he didn't know how to move, Lu Yu found that something was wrong, and hurriedly shouted, "Chen Xiu!" ”

Only then did Chen Xiu react and swung down his whip violently.

But it was too late.

Wu Bing watched Chen Xiu raise his whip, and immediately drew his sword and surrounded him, making a gesture to cut off the horse's legs. When Lu Yu saw it, he stuffed the child to Chen Xiudao, rolled with a sword and rushed into the Wu soldiers. These people are just a rabble, no match for Lu Yu. For a moment, the carriage rushed past everyone, and Lu Yu saw that he took advantage of the situation and turned over. Wu Bing couldn't stop it anymore, the two of them scolded and rode to catch up, these two people waved their knives to cut off the belt connecting the carriage and the horse, Lu Yu snatched Chen Xiu's horse whip when he saw it, and pulled the two people down.

The horse ran wildly, and the mountain road was bumpy, and I don't know how far it had run, and the connection between the carriage and the horse was broken. The horse also ran away, and the car continued to rush forward with momentum, until it hit the rocks on the side of the road in the wrong direction and stopped.

The road was bumpy, Chen Xiu only felt that the world was spinning, and he had been relieved for a long time, jumped out of the car and almost vomited his stomach. Chen Xiu fumbled and took out the wooden box from his arms, opened it and looked, and saw that the jade slip was still there and not damaged, so he was relieved. At this time, seeing a few drops of blood dripping down, Chen Xiu touched his head and found that he was injured, and then remembered that when the two people who caught up just now slashed down, it seemed that a knife was sticking to his head. Chen Xiu felt scared when he thought about it, but fortunately, he had a big life. Looking up, he saw that there were blood stains on Lu Yu's arm, and he hurriedly said, "How are you?" Lu Yu couldn't bear the pain, but he was not lightly injured. She had never really done it like this, and her sword was bloody! When I think about it at this time, I don't know what I'm doing, I just know that it has to be, and now I still tremble a little when I think about it.

Chen Xiu felt that something was wrong, and he didn't dare to speak. Suddenly, he was stunned, and then he thought of immortality?!

Chen Xiu slapped his head and shouted, 'Not good', and rushed into the carriage. Lu Yu saw that Chen Xiu was not holding the child, and he was so panicked, and he didn't care about the wound coming with Chen Xiu. When I got into the car, I saw the child lying in the corner of the car, and he was not injured because he was carrying the package. Lu Yu hugged him and saw that he was breathing evenly, so he was relieved. His heart was put down, and he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and turned his head to stare at Chen Xiu and said, "It's just that this kid hasn't cried for a day, it's just that he was so bumpy just now, how could he still sleep so deeply?" ”

Chen Xiu was stared at so much that he couldn't say why he couldn't say why, and he choked after a while, "I thought he was crying annoyingly, and I was afraid that he would do something bad on the road, so I added some sweat medicine to his goat's milk yesterday." ”

"You give him sweat medicine!" Lu Yu was furious. Because of the loss of blood and the anger in his heart, he only felt dizzy and sat down busily. Chen Xiu saw that the bleeding on Lu Yu's arm had not stopped, so he hurriedly ran to the car to get the hemostatic medicine out.

Lu Yu tested the baby's snort pulse and found that it was normal, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Xiu packed his luggage, calculated the approximate location in his heart, and said, "You are seriously injured." There are many villages nearby, so you may be able to find a place to stay. Lu Yu didn't speak.

After walking for a long time, I saw a market. They lost their horses, and they had a lot of baby feces and urine on their clothes, and they were disgusted, and when they saw a market, they thought about reopening it. It is said to be a bazaar, but in fact, there are only a few villages around, and this is not a traffic artery, it is very remote, there are not all things, and there are no horses, only a few thin and undecent mules. When it was ready, it was afternoon. It was raining coldly here, and Chen Xiu and Lu Yu entered the only inn in the market.

It's a good time to run the hall. It looked like it was going to be hot, but it was raining heavily, and the sky was cold. Most of the people asked for a few side dishes and a pot of soju.

The wine smelled very fragrant, it was warmed up by the guests who came and went, it was not softer than what he usually drank, Chen Xiu asked for a pot, and after taking a sip, he called it spicy.

The child was probably hungry and began to cry. Chen Xiu's hanging heart finally fell, "Finally crying!" Then he thought that from now on he would cry endlessly.

Xiao Er came to the table with a tray and put the food on the table, Chen Xiu rolled his eyes and picked up the rice porridge. Xiao Er hurriedly picked it up and said, "Be careful of hot hands!" ”

Chen Xiu didn't care, took it and said with a smile, "Don't get in the way, don't get in the way." Seeing that Chen Xiu didn't feel hot, Xiao Er wondered in his heart, how could such a thin bowl and clearly just hot porridge not be hot?

Lu Yu looked at Chen Xiu, and then spoke, "You didn't have time to hide from him before, but today you are willing to feed him?" ”

Chen Xiu smiled, "You're injured, I'll do this kind of thing!" I'll just come! ”

Chen Xiu dug a spoonful and wanted to feed it when it was cold, and took advantage of Lu Yu's inattention to put the cold rice porridge back into the bowl, put a spoonful of hot one from below, and handed it to the child's mouth, "Come, open your mouth." ”

The child twisted his head and avoided it.

"It's fine." Chen Xiu breathed a long sigh of relief, "Fortunately, I'm not stupid." ”

"What's not stupid?" Lu Yu said.

"Nothing, nothing!" Chen Xiu said with a smile.

Hearing only a few 'pop bangs', a soaking scholar ran in, but when he reached the door, he didn't enter, only paced back and forth under the eaves of the inn with his arms and head bent. Xiao Er saw that someone was coming, put the towel on his shoulder, and hurriedly went out to greet him. The man was embarrassed and said, 'No, no. ’

Seeing that he was in tatters, he knew that he had no money on his body and it was difficult to enter, so he smiled and said, "Come in and sit down, it's okay." Come in and get warmer. ”

The man also felt cold, and came in according to his words, but he didn't look for a place to sit. After a while, the person who ran to the hall came over with a bowl of soju and said, "It's raining suddenly, it's really cold, and drinking a bowl of wine can also warm your body." The man thanked him in embarrassment, but refused to stand in the lobby and drink, only looked around with the wine. Ran Tang smiled, "It's a good boy, but our place is not rich, so don't worry about it." ”

Chen Xiu felt curious, his mind flickered, and he raised his glass to the other side and shouted with a smile, "Alas! Sit here! ”

The man also turned around, and saw Chen Xiu nodding at him, before he came and sat down, and said, "It's abrupt." ”

The man's surname is Zhao and his name is Xiwen. Chen Xiu saw that he was sour and rotten, and he was really a scholar. Just because his family is in the middle of the road, he wants to abandon literature and engage in business. Zhao's mother said that she should start a family first, remembering the Old Testament many years ago, this time she sent Zhao Xiwen to the Xue family for employment. It was also this Zhao Xiwen who was unlucky, he met a thief on the road, and all the dowry money was robbed. Zhao Xiwen took advantage of the chaos to run into the mountains, and then escaped. He didn't know the way either, so he walked for a few days to get here, but he was penniless and encountered this heavy rain.

Lu Yu was a little puzzled when he heard the Xue family, the surname Xue was not uncommon, why did he just say 'Xue family'. Lu Yu asked, "Are you talking about the Xue family in Shunyin Valley?" ”

"Exactly."

"It's a big family." Chen Xiu smiled, "You are called a trick, and they don't recognize you, so in my opinion, they will definitely drive you back." ”

"No, you can't. My mother said that Uncle Xue is a rare true chivalrous warrior in the world, and he will never treat me strangely when he sees me poor. I also have a token from my engagement, which I always wear. As he spoke, he took out a piece of jade from his bosom. Look at the jade is very ordinary, only the jade is hollowed out and carved a pair of mandarin ducks is exquisite, and there is a small bead under the jade, and the word Zhao Xue falls on the bead.

Chen Xiu gave Lu Yu a look, and said with a smile, "You can still be so depressed with such a baby?" Why don't you take it as a change for some silver and go home, but you have to go to Xue Mansion to embarrass people. ”

Zhao Xiwen sneered, "What kind of treasure is this, at most it can be exchanged for four or five taels of silver, although it can solve the urgent need for a while, but it can't be exchanged for the entanglement of going home." ”

"This wasn't snatched?" Lu Yuqi said.

"It was originally searched. I said I was going to ask for a kiss, and they returned me. ”

Lu Yu couldn't help but chuckle, "There are such robbers!" ”

"The robbers are starting to become famous!" , Chen Xiu said with a smile, and then looked at Zhao Xiwen who was also depressed, and pretended to sigh again, "You are so down-and-out, won't the Xue family look down on you?" If you get married in the future, you may be pressed everywhere with this favor. ”

Zhao Xiwen sighed, "What Little Brother Chen said is also the truth, but now that I am a thief, I have to go home and do some care." But there is no entanglement, so I have to go to Xue Mansion as a last resort. ”

Lu Yu listened and went to get the baggage, Chen Xiu quietly stopped when he saw it, gave Lu Yu a look, and said with a smile, "We meet because of fate, if you go, we can also carry you." Let's go together and give you a strong momentum. Besides, you also said that your father-in-law is a chivalrous man, and he can't turn you away just because you are down. ”

Zhao Xiwen hurriedly thanked him.
