Chapter 673: Defeat (4K, including the sky has a slight blue fairy edge +3)
When the stone hit the horse's buttocks, Lu Erlang was helplessly following the cart.
With a whoosh, the sound of stones passing through the air beside him was unbearable, making Lu Erlang's lazy eyes as sharp as an eagle falcon for a moment.
With the intuition of a soldier, he realized that this stone was definitely not an accident.
The horse pulling the cart in front of him was frightened, jumped high with his front hooves, and after neighing, he pulled the cart and rushed madly towards the east gate.
Lu Erlang also whipped his horse's buttocks, and subconsciously chased the cart away.
It was already dusk. If they leave the city at this time, it is likely that they will not be able to return to the city when the horses are subdued.
But Lu Erlang didn't think about it so much at all.
For him, eating and sleeping outside is a common thing, and whether he can go to the city after dark is not worth mentioning at all.
Of course, Xiao Yanran was not as calm and comfortable as him, but she didn't panic much. In her opinion, it was just a very fortuitous accident.
Since it was an accident, then if it comes, it will be safe, protect yourself, and wait for your brother and sister-in-law to save yourself.
"Don't panic, hold on to the handrails, don't get thrown out. - Come, I have a few shawls here, take them and tie yourself to the handrails. This allows you to add weight and support each other without injury. Xiao Yanran freed up one hand and took out a few long shawls from under her seat.
The maid hurriedly took the shawl and tied herself to the handrails fixed on the car.
Therefore, although the cart was bumping quickly, the people inside were calm.
Not squeezed around. He didn't get hit on the head and bleed.
Frightened the horses pulled their cart and turned the road down.
As soon as I turned around, I heard a "whoosh"!
The sound of another pebble breaking through the air.
This time, it was smashed directly from the front and smashed into the horse's eye, blinding the eye.
The horse was so badly wounded that it became even more violent, and once again its front hooves rose into the air, and almost brought the whole cart upside down.
The mother-in-law who was driving the car in front of her could no longer sit steadily, and rolled to the ground from the side of the big car that was tilting upwards, and fell unconscious.
Several men in black jumped up from the grass. Holding a Pak knife in his hand. He slashed the reins of the startled horse a few times, and cut the reins, and the startled horse, who had been blinded by one eye, broke free from the shackles of the cart and immediately galloped forward like a happy child. Soon he was gone.
The cart fell down again. With inertia, he swerved forward for a while. before stopping.
Xiao Yanran and the maid in the car fortunately tied themselves to the armrest of the car, although they were led to stumble, but no one was thrown out of the car by that inertia. But his wrists were bruised by the silk ribbons.
"I opened this mountain, and I planted this tree! If you want to live from now on, leave to buy road money! A man in black rushed out of the grass with a knife in his arms, making a robbery look.
Xiao Yanran in the car felt nervous, and hurriedly asked, "How much silver do you want?" β
As soon as the man heard that it was a girl, he immediately smiled lewdly: "Hey, there is still a little lady...... Then you're welcome grandpa! Grandpa is just sending a lady to press the village, so let's go up the mountain with grandpa and be happy! As he spoke, he pulled down the curtain of the cart with his hand.
The two mothers-in-law at the front immediately glared at them and said, "Don't mess around! Our eldest lady is Zhu Guogong's own sister-in-law! And this car, this is the big car of the Zhuguo Mansion! Can't you see the sign on this car? β
There is a seal character "Xiao", and there is a symbol representing the Zhuguo Mansion. But this car is not a big car driven by Zhu Guogong.
The man in black rolled his eyes and said, "What logo?!" - Lao Tzu is illiterate! I don't know what kind of bullshit this is! But since you say that you are from the Zhuguo Mansion, it's fine. As he spoke, he called the doctor to the person next to him, "Second son! Go, go to the Zhuguo Mansion before it gets dark to report the news, and say, his little lady is in my hands, let him take it...... 100,000 taels of silver to redeem! If he doesn't redeem it, I'll be his cheap brother-in-law! β
The little minion named "Erzi" responded smartly, threw the knife to his accomplices, wrapped his head in a turban, and ran quickly to the city gate.
He ran as fast as a gust of wind.
Lu Erlang was delayed by a mule cart on the road, and only now did he rush over and pass by the little minion who went to the Zhuguo Mansion in the city to report the news, and he didn't even notice that a small man was running back and forth from this road.
"Come down! You give Lao Tzu down! The night was getting dark, Xiao Yanran's crystal white skin could almost glow in the dark car, and the leader of the man in black straightened his eyes, waved his knife, jumped into the car, cut the ribbons of the maids with their wrists tied one by one, and threw them under the car.
Xiao Yanran saw the bandit leader pressing towards her violently, and her heart was sad and bitter. She thought that if the thief really wanted to defile her, she would not live......
"You dare to come here, don't blame me for being unkind!" Xiao Yanran pulled off the thin golden hairpin on her head and aimed it at the bandit leader.
The bandit leader laughed strangely, "A small hairpin also wants to threaten Lao Tzu, it's really impatient......" A hand stretched out, about to snatch the golden hairpin in Xiao Yanran's hand.
Xiao Yanran had no choice but to return her hand, put the golden hairpin against her throat, gritted her teeth, and slashed at her neck.
The bandit leader didn't expect Xiao Yanran to be so strong, so he was taken aback, and grabbed her wrist without letting her draw deeper.
"Let go of me! Take away your dirty hands! Xiao Yanran was grabbed by the wrist of the bandit leader, so she had to use all her strength, using the "wolf prevention method" that Zhu Susu had taught them, and flew out with one foot, and the prince kicked the bandit head straight under the crotch, and then crushed it with his foot.
"Oh my mother, you're still here......" The bandit leader only felt that the life roots under his crotch had been kicked back into the gear, and the two balls were crushed into two balls of flesh. This death-like pain is more painful than purification, and even a man can't bear it. He screamed incessantly, his face was blue and his lips were white, and his whole body froze there. With his mouth wide open, only the breath coming out, not the breath coming in, he stood for a moment, and finally with a bang, he fell on the car and fainted in pain.
When he threw himself down, one hand was on Xiao Yanran's shoulder, tearing the placket of her upper body in half, revealing the blue and gold clothes inside. and snow-white round shoulders.
There were a few men in black under the car who watched stupidly. I wanted to watch a good show, but I didn't expect the boss to pretend to scare and not work, and he himself was kicked by this little lady and fainted.
They looked at each other, and for a moment they were bloody. I forgot what the boss told me. This time it's just a show. They all had red eyes, brandishing a Pu knife to rush into the car, and to "teach a good lesson" to this little girl who didn't know what to do!
Lu Erlang was delayed for a while by a mule cart on the road. That's when I arrived.
Seeing the mother-in-law and maid staggering on the side of the road, as well as a few black-clothed robbers who were about to rush to the car, Lu Erlang's eyes seemed to burst into flames, he flew up from his horse, crossed the heads of those black-clothed people, got into the car before them, and then snatched a simple knife from a black-clothed man's hand, danced vigorously, flew by with a knife, blood splashed five feet, killed those black-clothed people, kicked one by one, and kicked off the car.
And there was a fainting man in black lying in the car, and I don't know who cleaned up the road.
Lu Erlang looked down at the man in black, and looked up to see Xiao Yanran covering her chest with her hands, staring at him, and said in a trembling voice: "You...... You...... Not the second son of the Lu family?! β
Xiao Yanran once went to Mrs. Lu's house with Du Hengshuang as a guest and met Lu Erlang twice.
Mrs. Lu wanted to marry Xiao Yanran for Erlang, but Du Hengshuang had not said it to Xiao Yanran. Because she is still not sure about Lu Erlang's character, she can only mix it up first, and wait until she sees it clearly.
Seeing that Xiao Yanran still remembered herself, Lu Erlang smiled, touched the back of her head, and said, "Miss Xiao, it's me." And he said, "Don't be afraid." I saw it from the time you were in the city, and I chased after you, but fortunately it was not too late. β
But seeing that Xiao Yanran's clothes were torn, he glared again, and his face changed, "...... Who did it? Isn't he? He pointed his knife at the man in black who had fainted on the ground.
Xiao Yanran nodded and said with tears in her eyes: "...... I've taught him a lesson. β
Lu Erlang was surprised and boasted: "I didn't expect Miss Xiao to know how to do kung fu." β
Xiao Yanran was stunned and muttered: "It's not kung fu, it's just that I learned a little bit of skin." β
When the two were talking, Xiao Yanran's arms were not too tight, revealing a little spring light on her chest and shoulders.
Lu Erlang turned his head away, took off his outer robe, and threw it to Xiao Yanran, "Put it on quickly, it's cold, don't catch a cold." β
Xiao Yanran was very embarrassed, but she really needed clothes, so she hurriedly wrapped Lu Erlang's robe tightly, bowed her head and said nothing.
Lu Erlang was wearing a snow-white undershirt and squatted down to check the injuries of the black-clothed man who had fainted.
Upon probing, he was speechless. - This man is dead.
Lu Erlang squinted at Xiao Yanran and asked her how she dealt with the man in black just now.
Xiao Yanran's head hung down to her chest and said in a low voice: "...... It is...... Just kicked him. β
Lu Erlang turned the man over, and saw a red ball of his crotch leaking out, his heart moved, and he hurriedly said to Xiao Yanran: "You turn around and turn your back to our side." β
Xiao Yanran turned around as she said.
Lu Erlang also covered the figure of the man in black with his back, bent down and picked his trouser belt with a knife to take a look.
At a glance, I couldn't bear to look at it.
It's ruthless...... This man must have died of pain......
I didn't expect Xiao Yanran to look such a delicate eldest lady, and when she met a robber, she was so courageous.
Lu Erlang didn't think there was anything special about Xiao Yanran, and he thought that she was the eldest lady who was similar to his fiancΓ©e who had been married before. When his father died, the eldest brother inherited the title, and the family divorced him. He felt bored, so he quietly left home and went to Mobei to join the army.
In the past two years, he has grown up a lot in Mobei, and he has long recovered from the depression of being divorced.
He didn't have any affection for his former fiancΓ©e, he hadn't even met in person, he just felt ashamed.
Now that two or three years have passed, he feels a little funny when he thinks about the shame and unbearableness at the beginning.
It's just a marriage, anyway, the man is unmarried, the woman is unmarried, and the other party wants to climb the high branches, so they will climb. If they can't climb high, it's better than becoming a relative, and then stirring up trouble at home all day long, asking him to compete with his brother for the title.
Xiao Yanran is a woman who is highly praised by his mother, and Lu Erlang originally reluctantly followed Xiao Yanran for the sake of his mother and his eldest brother.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Yanran actually gave him a different feeling.
For the first time, Lu Erlang had the shadow of a woman in his heart.
As it got dark, several vultures flew down from the sky, trying to peck at the dead bodies.
Xiao Yanran was wrapped in Lu Erlang's robe and curled up on the bench in the car, but she was much weaker than just now.
Lu Erlang felt pity and said gently: "I'll let your maid come up to accompany you, and I'll pack these things up first." As he spoke, he kicked the corpse of the bandit leader who was in pain to death under the car, and jumped down with it.
The maids who had just been driven out of the car by the bandits hurriedly came over and asked, "Miss, you are fine, right?" β
Several people climbed into the car.
"Miss! Miss! β
From the road ahead, several more men came on horseback.
Xiao Yanran looked over and saw that it was their Xiao family's escort, she couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly said to her maid-in-law: "Call them over, we are here." β
"This way! This way! Lady is here! A woman screamed.
The guards rushed over.
Lu Erlang stood on the side of the road and said to them: "I am the Erlang of the Lu family, and I once went to your Zhuguo Mansion as a guest. β
There was a guard who followed Xiao Shiji out, saw Lu Erlang, knew him, and hurriedly came over and said, "Lu Ergongzi is polite." Then he saw the men in black on the ground, "What is the matter?" β
Lu Erlang said: "These people tried to hijack the eldest lady's carriage, and I killed them all." β
The guard nodded, "We were all sent by Madame to follow the eldest lady." However, it was too far away, and it was only now that I rushed over, and it was almost too late. Thanks to the help of Lu Ergongzi! As he spoke, he hugged his fists and thanked him.
Lu Erlang said with a smile: "With a lot of effort, why worry about it." He added: "These people are bandits, I'm afraid that people from Chang'an County will come over to deal with them." β
"Second son Lu rest assured, our brothers will take care of it." The guard smiled, "However, the city gate is closed, and we have to spend the night outside tonight, so why don't we go to the guest house?" β
"There is no village in front of here, there is no shop behind, their horses have run away again, and it is not easy to drive another ten miles to the inn in front." Lu Erlang was worried.
The guard thought for a moment and said, "I know that there is a dilapidated mountain temple not far in front of the road, and it is okay to go in and rest for the night." Early tomorrow morning, we will send someone to the Guogong Mansion to report the news, and then get a horse to come and pull the cart. β
Lu Erlang nodded, "That's it." As he spoke, he turned back to the women in the car and said, "Let's go down first and go to the mountain temple in front for a night's rest." β
