"Why is there a light curtain?"

"It looks like it's quite intelligent, but it's worthy of the identity of this handsome guy."

In the next second, with the violent shaking of the light curtain, Sima Jiu suddenly opened his eyes.

"Brother Jiu! You're not dead! ”

"Huh? The light curtain in my mind is gone! But a familiar voice came from my ears? ”

Sima Xingdong came to Sima Jiu's eyes, as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, and he was excited.

After a few breaths, Sima Jiu came to his senses and replied angrily.

"You kid, curse me, don't you?"

Just as he was about to stand up, he felt a sharp pain coming from his ankle.

"Brother Jiu, what's wrong with you?"

"I seem to have dislocated both of my feet?"

Sima Jiu wanted to move his feet, only to find that the joints of his feet were difficult to move, and they were accompanied by severe pain.

"It can't be so unlucky, right? Even if one foot is dislocated, what does it mean to dislocate both feet at the same time? ”

Suddenly, Sima Jiu complained in his heart.

"Huh? Then don't move. Sima Xingdong lifted Sima Jiu's trouser legs, and was immediately shocked by the swollen feet like steamed buns, he wanted to help Sima Jiu, but he didn't know how to start.

"Hmm!"

Sima Jiu sat up slowly, puzzled: "Eh, yes, what about Sima Da?" ”

"I searched far along the river, but I couldn't find him."

Sima Xingdong's expression was suddenly solemn, and his tone was low.

The rapids surged, and the river flowed into the distance, taking away the rolling mille-feuille waves, but not the loss of the two people on the shallows.

Sima Jiu reached out and grabbed Sima Xingdong's wrist.

"Everyone has a destiny, and God is destined."

"We must live, we must live strongly."

After a while, Sima Xingdong nodded solemnly, and he raised his eyes to inspect it.

"Brother Jiu, bear with me, I don't know how to get your feet, but this river is too wet, I'm going to drag you to that big rock."

Sima Jiu followed Sima Xingdong's gaze, and more than ten meters away, there was a stone that could accommodate three or four people lying flat.

Sima Jiu nodded.

"Whew...... Call...... Call! ”

"Brother Jiu, bear with me."

"It's almost there."

"It's coming soon."

At a distance of just a dozen meters, Sima Xingdong had repeated similar words several times.

Sima Xingdong was thin and small, and his physical strength was not strong, so he dragged Sima Jiu with great difficulty, moving inch by inch.

It took more than ten minutes for him to drag Sima Jiu to the stone.

"Xingdong, thank you!" Sima Jiu thanked.

"We are brothers, thank you."

"You rest for a while, I have to slow down, I'm tired."

"Hmm!"

Sima Jiu turned his head to stare at the trail of drag on the shoal, and an inexplicable feeling arose, and when he turned his head again, Sima Xingdong had fallen asleep quietly.

"This kid ......"

Sima Jiu stared at the simple face and smiled slightly, his eyes glowing with gratitude.

"Who are you?"

When Sima Jiu heard the news, he was startled, and then looked over.

Not far away, a group of cavalry was vigilant against Sima Jiu, seemingly waiting for his response.

The number of cavalry was wrong, about two hundred horsemen.

Most of them wore wolf-shaped helmets, masks like wolves, black armor, spears, horizontal knives at their waists, and crossbow arrows on their backs, like an elite appearance.

Led by a soldier who looked like a general, he wore a delicate wolf-shaped helmet, black armor embroidered brocade clothes, and a gold-patterned dragon sword at his waist.

"We are from Sima Village, and we accidentally fell into the river and were washed up on this shoal."

Sima Jiu had an idea, combined with the information he had learned from Sima Xingdong before, and calmly responded.

The origin of the cavalry in front of him was unknown, and Sima Jiu did not dare to be careless.

The cavalry did not relax their vigilance because of Sima Jiu's words.

However, the soldier who looked like a general at the head broke away from the team and drove his horse towards Sima Jiu.

At this moment, Sima Xingdong was also awakened, and when he noticed the general-looking soldier, he immediately jumped up, clasped his hands into fists, and watched them vigilantly.

Sima Xingdong looked nervous and exclaimed, "Who are you?" ”

"I am the vanguard general of the imperial court counterinsurgency: Yang Xuanting!"

The man's expression was sharp, his tone was awe-inspiring, and he couldn't help but be afraid.

"Yang Xuanting?" Sima Jiu was secretly surprised.

Subsequently, he recalled the deeds of Yang Xuanting from his memory little by little.

Yang Xuanting is the son of Yang Su, an important minister of the imperial court, who is brave and good at fighting and is good at spears.

When Yang Xuangan rebelled, Yang Xuanting repeatedly served as the general of the rebel army, invincible, invincible, and killed many famous generals of the imperial court, and then died because of the single horse rushing into the battle, and was pierced through the heart by ten thousand arrows.

As the saying goes, often walking by the river, how can you not get your shoes wet, and the crusade and conquest are never a joke.

If you are not careful, you will die in the chaos of the army.

Sima Jiu, a young man with five poisons in the new century, doesn't want to live such a life.

Isn't it fragrant to have an ordinary life?

Just as he was about to open his mouth to explain, Sima Xingdong was excited, and sighed to Sima Jiu happily: "Great! Captain, we've finally met an ally. ”

Sima Jiu couldn't laugh or cry at this.

Xingdong is too anxious, and now, if you want to stop it, it's too late.

"Captain Wu? Friendly? Yang Xuanting looked disdainful.

The two people in front of him, without armor or weapons, were thin and weak, looked embarrassed, and had no military manners.

Yang Xuan said sharply: "You are an imperial sergeant, why are you so persecuted?" ”

Yang Xuanting is a high-ranking official of the imperial court, a rising general of the empire, Sima Jiu naturally does not dare to slack off.

So, he followed the example of the ancients and endured the pain in his feet and knelt on the ground.

The big husband can bend and stretch, so what's the matter if he kneels.

"General Qiyu Yang: We are the new sergeants under the command of Lord Cheng Niu Da of Hedong County, because of the surprise attack of the rebels, the Lord of the county was killed, and we were forced into the river, and we were rushed to this place for the river."

At this moment, it happened that a corpse was floating in the river.

Yang Xuanting noticed the corpse, and when his gaze was withdrawn from the river, he said: "It's really fortunate that you won't die in a catastrophe, since you are an imperial sergeant, then you will be temporarily assigned to this general." ”

"General, please forgive your subordinates for ......" Sima Jiu said this, and suddenly realized that something was wrong, so he didn't continue.

Now, if you are a rout, if you don't do it well, you will be treated as a deserter, and any army's treatment of deserters is simple and rude: there is no forgiveness for killing.

If you disobey the order again at this time, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Huh?"

Yang Xuanting's expression froze, and he suddenly became murderous.

"General: My subordinates have dislocated their feet, and it is difficult to move an inch."

If you refuse, you have to find a reason.

So, Sima Jiu was in a hurry and directly told the fact that his feet were dislocated.

"It's not that subordinates don't want to follow the general, subordinates are really powerless!" In Sima Jiu's heart, he was secretly overjoyed by his wit.

Yang Xuanting glanced at Sima Jiu's ankle, and also noticed Sima Jiu's painful expression.

However, he did not say much, but after making a few gestures to the cavalry, he rode his horse upstream along the river.

Immediately afterwards, two cavalrymen with leather boxes hanging from their waists led two horses towards Sima Jiu.

It would seem, they should be military doctors.

Seeing this, Sima Xingdong rushed in front of Sima Jiu desperately and opened his arms.

"What are you going to do?"

"Xingdong, it's okay, they're here to help us." Sima Jiu hurriedly dissuaded.

"Oh!" Sima Xingdong stepped aside in embarrassment.

After the two military doctors briefly examined Sima Jiu's feet, they set out to reset Sima Jiu.

"Ahh

With two 'click' sounds coming from the joint part of his foot, Sima Jiu screamed in pain.

"Your feet have been reset, but it's not appropriate to move around yet, get on the horse."

"Thank you, big brothers!"

With the help of two military doctors, Sima Jiu mounted his war horse and followed the cavalry team.

Sima Jiu grew up in the countryside in his previous life, and when he was herding cattle, he did a lot of things like bull riding.

Therefore, for him, horseback riding was not much different from bull riding, and it didn't take long for him to master the ropes of horseback riding.

During the march, Sima Jiu asked one of the cavalrymen, "This big brother: Where are we going?" ”

However, the cavalry did not respond to him and only cared about the march.

Despite this, Sima Jiu could roughly guess the purpose of their trip.
