256, brother-in-law?! Hapless bandits
Generalissimo Hudun is the generalissimo of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, and it is said that he has six out of forty this year. At that time, the king of the Northern Yuan Dynasty retreated to the outside of the pass, and the tribes complained and were unwilling to obey the orders of the king of the Northern Yuan. Seeing that the Northern Yuan Dynasty is about to fall into the situation of fighting each other on the grassland hundreds of years ago. Marshal Hudun, who was only in his early twenties at the time, stepped forward and helped the king of the Northern Yuan to recover all troops and horses and stabilize the situation at that time. If it weren't for this, the current Northern Yuan wouldn't have to bother with Great Xia, and the blood he would have to kill first would be like a river.
Although this generalissimo was the generalissimo of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, he himself was not very radical, but quite sober. He did not advocate that he should immediately re-invade the Central Plains and regain the territory of the original Northern Yuan, but that the king of the Northern Yuan should rest and recuperate, and then try to enter the Central Plains after regaining his vitality. It is precisely because the king of the Northern Yuan Dynasty adopted his Jianyì that he kept the last breath of vitality of the Northern Yuan Dynasty and did not completely destroy the country.
I didn't expect that the Lu family's business would be able to do such a thing, and it was really not simple.
The leader of the horse thieves was also stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted and sneered: "Hudun's thing, so what? In such a big place outside the gate, Lao Tzu just robbed him of his things, what could he do? "Obviously, he didn't take Lu Qilin's threat seriously.
He doesn't pay attention to it, but not everyone does. A man beside him took two steps forward and whispered: "Boss, we are living happily outside the gate, why bother to provoke Hudun?" In case it really him off......"
"It's about to be winter, is it possible that Hudun can still send troops to encircle and suppress us?" The leader of the horse thieves raised his eyebrows in disapproval.
"Hehe, I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of just in case. There are more than 100,000 soldiers and horses under Hudun, and sending a few thousand people is enough for us to drink a pot. "The principle that the people do not fight with the officials is a general rule in ancient and modern China and abroad.
Lu Qilin saw that there was a play, and hurriedly slowed down his voice and said: "Please also raise your noble hand and let us pass, and I am willing to offer you three hundred taels to drink." β
Three hundred taels is already a lot, and Lu Qilin is transporting valuable goods this time, and the scale is not small. Sometimes, even if a horse thief meets a merchant outside the customs, he will not be able to grab three hundred taels of goods at a time if he is unlucky. Not to mention, in this vast grassland, the caravan is not something you can encounter if you want to.
The horse thief leader touched his chin and thought about it, and finally said, "You can go, that little lady wants to stay!" His eyes were directed at Nangong Mo beside Wei Junmo.
Nangong Mo's lips hooked up a faint smile, and just about to speak, he heard Wei Junmo next to him say lightly: "Okay, let's stay." β
The leader of the horse thieves was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Wei Junmo's face with disgust, "Get out!" Who's going to keep you? As long as the little lady is fine. "Just this little white face, if they really left the few girls in their village, they would be hooked up by this kid.
Nangong Mo held Wei Junmo's hand and said, "He is my brother, and I will not be left behind if I die alone." β
"Oh? It turned out to be my brother-in-law. The horse thief leader suddenly smiled, "Cheng, all stay." β
Brother-in-law... Nangong Mo glanced sympathetically at a certain triumphant horse bandit.
"Gong Gongzi, Gong Girl......" Lu Qilin looked at Nangong Mo and the others with some apologetic guilt, if it weren't for his daughter, maybe nothing would have happened at all. Now... Looking at the appearance of this horse bandit, I am afraid that he has made up his mind to keep the palace girl. If they insist, maybe they won't even be able to leave. The Northern Yuan royal court actually didn't have much deterrent power among these horse bandits wandering outside the pass.
Nangong Mo smiled bitterly, "It's our bad luck, and it's no wonder Mr. Lu." β
Lu Qilin felt even more guilty, Lu Yunfeng wanted to say something, but was glared at by his father, and after all, he just sighed and lowered his head. Wei Junmo's martial arts are good, maybe it's easier to escape with Nangong Mo alone? That's all they can think about.
Soon, the caravan returned to the road after paying three hundred taels of silver and some fine wine and tea from the Kannai. The leader of the horse bandits looked at the newly arrived little lady with satisfaction, smiled and waved his hand with satisfaction: "Brothers, go home!" β
"Go home! Go home! The bandits shouted with joy.
Because Nangong Mo insisted on refusing to ride with the leader of the horse bandits, she had to let her ride a horse by herself like Wei Junmo. Both of them rode rare good horses, but their tempers were not very good, and others couldn't touch them. So a group of horse thieves surrounded the two of them in the middle, and ran in a northwesterly direction.
After galloping with the horse team for two or three hours, the two of them saw a mountain that was not too low. It took more than a quarter of an hour to reach the foot of the mountain, and it was clear that the stronghold of the bandits was in the middle of the mountain. No wonder they are not afraid of the cavalry of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, they usually wander the grassland, and once the Northern Yuan Dynasty sends troops to encircle and suppress, they will hide in the mountains. The Northern Yuan cavalry has never been good at fighting in the mountains and forests, and it is even more difficult to catch these people in the vast mountains.
Nangong Mo lowered his head and calculated silently, probably knowing where they were now.
Probably with the intention of marrying a daughter-in-law, the leader of the horse thieves was very polite to the two, and even a little courteous. After entering the mountain, I walked around and around for nearly an hour before I saw the appearance of the cottage. It is worthy of the bandit leader from the pass, the stronghold is placed in a very dangerous position, easy to defend and difficult to attack, not to mention, if it weren't for Nangong Mo and Wei Junmo who have excellent memory, maybe just this part of the way into the mountain can make people dizzy.
"Girl, our name is Wang Ba, what is your name?" The bandit leader changed his previous domineering spirit and smiled very flatteringly.
"Wang Ba?" Nangong Mo was surprised, and the bandit leader twitched the corners of his mouth, "The king of the king, the overlord of the overlord!" Girl, what's your name? β
Nangong Mo smiled at him and said, "My name is Gong Molan, and his name is Gong Junqing." β
Wang Ba was not interested in what Wei Gongzi was called, "It turned out to be Miss Molan, let's get married tonight, what do you think?" β
Nangong Mo lowered his eyes, "This... You'll have to talk to my brother. β
Wang Ba only thought she was shy, smiled and nodded again and again: "It's me who is confused."
nodded and said, "It's me who is confused, brother-in-law, what do you think?" β
Wei Junmo glanced at him lightly, "Find a place and discuss it well." β
"No problem! Younger ones, prepare food for the new lady and brother-in-law! Wang Ba roared and led the two of them happily towards his residence. Along the way, I didn't forget to introduce my net worth to the two. It turned out that this bandit who was originally from Xizhou took Tainingwei to sweep around a few years ago when King Ning had just taken over the domain, and for a time the bandits in the entire Xizhou area had a miserable life. What's even worse is that you can't move away, to the south, there are Jianghu families and big bandit villages entrenched, to the west thousands of miles of yellow sand, and snow in August. To the east, King Yan is even more difficult to mess with than King Ning. In the end, Wang Ba gritted his teeth and took his brother to live outside the gates. Although the climate is not very good, and it is not as prosperous as the Guannai, at least no one comes to suppress the bandits from time to time, and the life is happy.
Nangong Mo followed behind him, looking at someone's back sympathetically. There are happy days, but they want to find death, who is to blame?
Entering the hall, Wang Ba turned around and smiled earnestly: "Brother-in-law, let's ......"
A blue light came towards him, Wang Ba was startled, and quickly rolled on the spot and flashed to the side. The table behind him slammed in half.
Looking back at the table that had been cut in half by Qi Qi, Wang Ba only felt cold sweat on his head, if this fell on him... Is he going to be a two-petaled child too?
When he raised his head, he saw the handsome man who had not spoken much all this time walking towards him step by step with a soft sword that came from nowhere. is still followed by the beautiful little lady who is still smiling and groaning. Wang Ba secretly complained, Lao Tzu just wanted to marry a beautiful little daughter-in-law, who knew how to get back two terrible gods. But he didn't dare to scream, he really didn't want to bet on whether he was screaming fast or the blue sword was splitting fast.
"You... You two, you have something to say. Wang Ba crouched on the edge of a pile of broken tables and did not dare to get up.
Wei Junmo stretched out his hand and pulled him up, only to hear a few sounds of Kaka, and a heart-piercing pain spread throughout his body. Wang Ba couldn't help but open his mouth and scream. Before the voice came out, Nangong Mo stretched out his slender jade finger and pointed at him, Wang Ba was like an exaggerated mime actor, screaming wildly, but there was no sound.
When he felt that he was about to lose his hold, Wei Junmo snorted lightly and waved his sleeves, and a few wisps of strong wind hit him. The pain in his body disappeared suddenly, and Wang Ba was still screaming. Nangong Mo twitched the corners of his mouth, "Okay, stop screaming." β
Wang Ba's scum eyes only to find that the original pain had disappeared. However, when he saw the cold-faced man sitting next to him, he couldn't help but tremble, and shrank on the ground and didn't dare to get up.
Nangong Mo squatted beside him and asked with a smile: "Lord Wangzhai, do you still want to marry me?" β
Wang Ba shook his head frantically, and his heart was manic: Lao Tzu doesn't want to marry you, a mother, even if he marries a man!
"That's good, I just like good-looking people, like him. I'm afraid I'll whip you up if I'm not careful. Nangong Mo comforted him softly. Wang Ba couldn't help but tremble again, and looked at the two of them aggrievedly: Aren't you brother and sister? Don't be so heavy-mouthed.
Nangong Mo grinned and said, "Teasing you, do you really believe that we are brother and sister?" Come, sue me, do you know where the Northern Yuan Royal Court is? β
Wang Ba shook his head.
"I really don't know?" Nangong Mo squinted, found a silver needle out of nowhere, and said softly: "It is said that you have also been outside the customs for seven or eight years, and you don't know anything... I'll be upset. Without hesitation, a silver needle pierced into a hole on his body. Wang Ba once again felt the pain he had just tasted. No, this time is different, but it is significantly more painful. This time it didn't hurt, but I started to feel itchy, and there was no place on my body that didn't itch. He itched and wanted to scratch his skin, but he couldn't speak or move. I can only silently endure this feeling of ants drilling into my heart.
Nangong Mo stood up and clapped his hands, and sat down beside Wei Junmo.
"Is he telling the truth?"
Wei Junmo said calmly: "I'll know in a while." β
Nangong Mo looked at him speechlessly, you just want to make him suffer a little longer, right? Wei Gongzi raised his eyebrows, can't he?
Yes, of course! He's not unlucky, maybe I'm going to be unlucky somewhere. Nangong Mo smiled and slapped Wei Gongzi's face, "What I said is true, I only like Wei Gongzi to be like this, good-looking." β
Wei Gongzi raised his eyebrows and glanced at the face of someone on the ground who was definitely not good-looking.
Fortunately, someone looks average, in case he is really a handsome bandit, such as Jin Hao, maybe he will be forced to be disfigured.
Dog men and women! Wang Ba, who was uncomfortable with snot and tears, saw the two people who were making out in a trance, and scolded angrily in his heart.
I don't know how long it took, the itching sensation on his body finally subsided, and Wang Ba let out a long sigh of relief. I couldn't help but look at the woman standing beside me with grateful eyes. If he doesn't stop stopping, he really can't help but kill himself. Nangong Mo stretched out his hand to untie his acupoint, and asked with a smile, "How is it?" Got it? β
Wang Ba shook his head, he really didn't know.
Seeing that Nangong Mo's face was about to change, he hurriedly said, "I... I really don't know where that Northern Yuan Royal Court is? But... But I know where the nearby Northern Yuan people lived, and where the military camp of the generalissimo Hudun was! β
"Oh?"
"Really! It's true! Wang Ba nodded again and again and reassured, "More than two hundred miles away from here, there is a place inhabited by Northern Yuan people, about twenty or thirty thousand people. Seventy or eighty miles further northwest, there is another small town, with about forty or fifty thousand people, and those are all people who were evacuated from the Guannai back then. They are not like the people who have always lived outside the gates, they do not like to move around very much. Hudun's military camp was also nearby, about three or four hundred miles away. In Hudun's hands, I heard that there is more than half of the Northern Yuan royal court
More than half of the soldiers and horses of the royal court. So, we've never been much going over there. β
Nangong Mo and Wei Junmo glanced at each other, Hudun's military camp was over there, and the Northern Yuan Royal Court should not be too far away. Further northwest, it is the territory of Warat. In the past few years, the Wara tribe has become more and more powerful, and there is a faint disobedience to the control of the royal court, and it is impossible for the king of the Northern Yuan to get too close to them.
Reaching out and taking out a pill, Nangong Mo stuffed it directly into Wang Ba's mouth. Lifting his neck, Wang Ba was forced to swallow the pill. I was almost choked, so I could only hold my neck in pain and stare at the woman in front of me. Wang Ba burst into tears in his heart: he just wanted to marry a daughter-in-law, why did he provoke this female devil. In these years, both male and female have grown so well, and they still don't let these kind people live?
Nangong Mo got up and walked back to Wei Junmo with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Get up and sit down." β
Wang Bazhan got up tremblingly, leaned into the chair on the side, and asked, "You... What exactly do you want to do? What did you just give me to eat? β
Nangong Mo said: "We... Let's do something outside the customs. As long as you are obedient, I will naturally give you the antidote when I leave. If something happens to me during this time, or I die, or you don't have time to take the antidote..."
"What will happen to me?"
"Have you ever seen maggots?" Nangong Mo asked.
"Of course you do, you don't want to say I'm going to turn into a maggot, do you?" Wang Ba gave her a "you play with me" look.
Nangong Mo shook his head and smiled, "Of course not, you will be eaten by maggots." And it's from the inside to the outside, until you eat your whole person into a skeleton shelf. Don't worry, you won't see it, and at most you'll only be able to hold out until they eat a hole in your stomach. β
"Gross!" Wang Ba couldn't help but think of that scene, and turned his head and vomited neatly.
Nangong Moxiu raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Wei Junmo: This is too frightening.
Finally vomited, Wang Ba looked at Wei Junmo with some sympathy: I like such a perverted woman, can you sleep at night?
Nangong Mo looked at him calmly and asked, "How?" Have you decided? β
Wang Ba hesitated a little, "How do I know if what you said is true or false?" β
Nangong Mo casually played with the silver needle in his hand and said, "I have some other things in my hand, do I want to try it with you for a more significant effect?" Thinking of the pain just now, Wang Ba couldn't help but shudder, "No... No need. As long as you talk and count, give me the antidote. Then ......"
"As soon as we're done, we're gone. It won't work against you. Nangong Mo said.
Wang Ba thought for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and nodded: "Okay, as long as you talk and count, I will listen to your orders." What are you going to do first? β
Nangong Mo said: "We want to go to the Northern Yuan settlement to see, someone originally led the way, but we were scared away by you." β
"I'll lead you." Wang Ba is very knowledgeable about current affairs.
Nangong Mo nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Then thank you." Depart tomorrow and spend the night with you tonight. Don't worry, we'll get paid. As he spoke, Nangong Mo casually threw out an object, and Wang Ba reached out to take it in his hand, and his eyes couldn't help but light up. It is a gold ornament encrusted with rubies, and you can tell at first glance that it is worth a lot.
Wang Ba nodded and said, "I know, I'll take the two of you early tomorrow morning." β
Nangong Mo casually threw over another medicine bottle, "This is the antidote, there are three in it." Take one every other day and I'll give it to you again when it's done. β
Wang Ba hurriedly and carefully held the medicine bottle, looking at the two of them with blank eyes, "Thank you... Thank you, girl, can I go? β
Nangong Mo couldn't help but hide his lips and smiled: "This is your place, where are you going?" Please take us to the guest room, don't reveal our identity first, understand? As for the marriage you mentioned... Let's just postpone it for a few days. β
"Yes, yes." Wang Ba looked at the woman in front of him blankly, although this female monster was a little poisonous, her methods were a little ruthless. But when she laughs, she is really more beautiful than the goddess of the snow-capped mountain in the legend of the Northern Yuan people, and she really looks like a fairy. Pity... This is not a little fairy, this is a ruthless female monster.
A cold gaze crossed his face, Wang Ba shrunk his neck and hurriedly lowered his head, "I'll go and have someone prepare a guest room for the two of you." β
Nangong Mo nodded and said with a smile: "It's hard work." β
"Don't dare, don't dare." Turning around, Wang Ba hurriedly ran out of the hall, as if there was really a monster chasing him behind him. Soon there was a roar from outside the house, "Someone! Come! Give Lao Tzu someone to come, prepare a guest room! β
Nangong Mo looked back at Wei Gongzi and laughed out loud.
