Su Liuying was about to run away, but when she saw Shi Du walking back again, she asked nervously, "Have you made water?" ”

Shi Du handed over a dagger and said, "This thing Miss can hold for self-defense." ”

Su Liuying thought to herself: "With this dagger, it is much easier to kill yourself." So he silently took the dagger.

After Shi Du walked away, she no longer hesitated, gave up the mountain road, ran to another path, ran for a while, saw that Shi did not chase after her, and was secretly happy, suddenly her ankle hurt, and she fell to the ground.

She looked at her ankle and saw two black dots on it, and then searched to her foot just in time to see a white snake's tail disappearing into the grass.

Dizzy, she fainted.

After a long time, she was shaken awake, opened her eyes, and sighed, who was the person who woke her up in front of her?

"Miss, why did you pass out here?" Shi Du hurriedly asked.

"I was bitten by a snake." Su Liuying only felt dizzy and weak at the moment.

Shi Du was shocked and hurriedly asked her where she was bitten, Su Liuying pointed to her ankle, Shi Du leaned over and saw that her right shoe and socks had faded, and there were two small black spots on her snow-white and crystal ankle.

"Miss, is it a white snake?" Shi Du sniffed the wound and asked anxiously.

Su Liuying nodded slightly.

"This snake is called "Bai Xinzi", it is highly poisonous, I will help the young lady take drugs! ”

"No, you are not allowed to touch me!" Su Liuying exclaimed, she valued chastity more than ordinary women, otherwise she would not have committed suicide repeatedly.

Although Shi Du was eager, he still did not dare to disobey her, and said, "Then I will cut the wound and release some poisonous blood." ”

Su Liuying nodded.

Shi Du skillfully cut a small incision, released the poisonous blood, and waited until the blood was all red before applying gold sore medicine and wrapping the wound.

He checked Su Liuying's pulse, and when he saw that her life was not in danger, he was relieved and said, "Miss, I'll carry you to the city to find a doctor." ”

How could Su Liuying agree, shaking her head and saying nothing.

"Then I'll go find the car." Shi Du sighed and said.

After a long time, Shi Du pushed a two-wheeled cart over, and Su Liuying got into the car with his support.

Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of blood stains on Shi Du's clothes, and her heart sank, and she asked, "Where did you get the car from?" ”

"A farmer's family."

"You killed them, didn't you?" Su Liuying bit her lip and asked.

Shi Du's face twitched, and he said, "They refused to borrow it, and they said that they wanted to report to the official, and I couldn't do it." ”

Su Liuying pursed her lips tightly, and couldn't help thinking in her heart: "I hurt them!" I hurt them! Suddenly, my head sank and I fainted.

Shi Du pushed her to a fork in the road and went in the direction of She County, but after walking a few steps, she suddenly made a circle and went to Xiuning County.

……

On the rooster song mountain, it was noon, and outside the bamboo house, the summer cicadas were chirping one after another.

Under an elm tree, a little girl is holding a bamboo pole and is knocking a cicada, although the cicada is extremely agile, but she is very fast, and she can knock the cicada to the ground every time.

She shot very lightly, and the cicada was not injured after it landed, and she did not catch it, and let it fly away.

After playing for a while, she ran to the window of the bamboo house, and saw that her brother had almost finished eating, so she walked into the house casually, took out a slingshot and pretended to play in the corner, but in fact she was going to listen to what her brother and the Qin family sister had to say.

After eating another bowl, Lu Yuan saw that Qin Youyu was going to add more rice, and hurriedly said, "Miss Qin, I'm full." ”

"In the past few days, I have seen a sad look between Brother Lu's eyebrows, I don't know if there is anything embarrassing?"

Since Qin Youyu made an agreement with Lu Yuan, he has been much closer to him, and he will not leave immediately after eating.

"It's fine." Lu Yuan said with a smile.

Seeing that Lu Yuan didn't say anything, Qin Youyu didn't ask any more, and waited for him to leave before returning to the room to study, suddenly Qin Quan walked into the room, Qin Youyu put down the book, and waited for him to speak.

"Sister, do you know what Brother Lu is worried about?"

Qin Youyu shook his head, knowing that since he asked this question, he must know the reason, so he didn't ask, and looked at him quietly.

"I went into the city yesterday and asked about three things."

"What?"

"First, in just a few days, Brother Lu has collected most of the people's hearts in the county."

Qin Youyu finally became a little more interested, and said with a smile: "I can see that Uncle Li has such an attitude towards him that day. ”

"Second, Brother Lu used to be a staff member of Ning Guohou's Mansion, who is Ning Guohou, Sister should know, Brother Lu lives under his tent, and his ambition is self-evident."

"You look so happy." Qin Youyu smiled.

"That's nature, if he doesn't have great ambitions, how can we fulfill our agreement with him."

"If he can't be a festival envoy within three years, so what?" Qin Yu asked.

"With Brother Lu's talent, with the help of you and me, and Ning Guohou has different aspirations, in my opinion, it is still very promising." Qin Quan smiled.

Seeing that he was not in a hurry at all, Qin Youyu thought to himself, even if Brother Lu did not achieve the temperance envoy in the three-year covenant, he would have another countermeasure if he thought about it.

"How are you going to help?" Qin Yu asked.

Qin Quan smiled slightly, but did not answer directly, and said, "Third, Brother Lu is preparing to exterminate the bandits in the county. ”

Qin Youyu's heart sank, and he said softly: "That's not easy. ”

"Isn't it, there are only more than 100 officials in the county government, and all of them are untrained, and it is difficult to suppress bandits with them."

Qin Youyu remembered that Lu Yuan had often been stunned in the past two days, and thought: "This is what he is embarrassed to think about. ”

"What do you do?"

"Recruit 300 people, train me for half a year, armed with spears and heavy bows, and in this way, it can be done." Qin Quan said lightly.

"I heard that there are many martial arts characters in the Twelve Villages, is it enough for you to train for only half a year?" Qin Youyu raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Is Sister looking down on my military training skills?" Qin Quan said awe-inspiringly.

"But Brother Lu may not let you do this, he may find someone else to help." Qin Youyu didn't argue with him.

"This is exactly what I'm worried about, no matter who Brother Lu is looking for, after the matter is completed, this force will take advantage of the weakness, and there will be hidden dangers in the future." Qin Quan is colorful.

Qin Youyu finally guessed the purpose of his words to himself, and asked, "Are you asking me to mention this matter to Brother Lu?" ”

"Yes, Sister A's proposal, Brother Lu will not refuse."

Qin Youyu hesitated for a moment and said, "If people find out, this is a big crime of rebellion, do you want Brother Lu to show his determination to stand on his own?" ”

"Doesn't Sister want to?" Qin Quan's eyes were blazing.

Both of them are not from the Southern Tang Dynasty, they have no loyalty to the imperial court, and they grew up in troubled times since they were children, and they have gone through the destruction of many dynasties, so they have no mental obstacles to rebellion.

The two have their own ambitions, the younger brother wants to show what he has learned in his chest and leave his name in history, and the older sister wants to prove that women are not inferior to men and become a female general.

After listening to Lu Yuan's discussion, the blood in the hearts of the sisters and brothers was aroused, and they all wanted to follow Lu Yuan to achieve a career together.

"I really hope that Brother Lu can achieve great things." Qin Youyu nodded and said, "But I will never force him, if he is willing to do it, I will follow, if he is unwilling, I will not force it." ”

Qin Quan knew that his sister was right, and said in disappointment: "What Sister said is, then let's stop this matter." ”

"I didn't say I wouldn't help you, what are you anxious about?" Qin Youyu smiled.

The muscles on Qin Quan's face twitched, he knew that his sister loved to play tricks, and he suffered a lot from her when he was a child.

"I'm not in a hurry." He was adamantly calm.

"I will mention this to him, but whether Brother Lu agrees or not, it is all up to him." Qin Youyu said.

"What does Sister mean?" Qin Quan stared at her and asked.

"The Twelve Villages have been harming for many years, and I have long wanted to eradicate them, so I agree to your proposal. But how Brother Lu decides in the future, I will never interfere with him. Qin Youyu said slowly.

……

Lu Yuan returned to the study, but saw Zhanyuan and a man in his thirties waiting in the study.

The man had reminded himself outside the Sun Mansion before, and Lu Yuan was deeply impressed, and greeted with a smile: "Brother Tai, meet again." ”

"Grass people Jin Yuanwu, meet the county commander!" The man bowed down.

"No need to be polite." Lu Yuan stepped forward to help him up.

"Lord Lu, this is my senior brother, and he also wants to be a famous catcher under the command of adults." Zhan Yuan said.

"I don't know how Brother Tai's martial arts are?" Lu Yuan asked, he likes to receive some subordinates with strong martial arts.

"My lord, my senior brother's martial arts are far superior to mine, even if it is Brother Hou, it is estimated that he is not as good as him." Zhan Yuan hesitated for a moment and said.

"How can such a person be condescended to the position of catching fast." Hearing that the other party was stronger than Hou Kaishan, Lu Yuan was extremely happy.

Zhan Yuan's heart sank, and he only heard Lu Yuan continue:

"Brother Jin, I want to appoint you as the head of the county government, what do you think?"
