Chapter Fifty-Four: Ambush in the Sorghum Field, Soft-Bone Groom

Here's the thing:

The crooked-nosed beggar got the news that there was a young lady from a big family who was going to Luoyang, and this young lady was not from Hu Guo, and the beggar leader in Luoyang was ready to tie her up and sell her to Yueyage.

However, the young lady of a large family will always have a few guards around her, and the beggar leader is afraid that there will be not enough manpower, so he is looking for someone in the cities around Luoyang.

Since everyone is a beggar and is more familiar, and this is not the first time to do this kind of thing, so Crooked Nose brought two younger brothers over, and made an appointment to start at noon tomorrow.

When Bian Liang heard this, he was a little angry, "You are kidnapping women from good families, aren't you afraid that people will report to the official?" ”

Crooked nose smiled and said, "Uncle, you don't know, that young lady is from Xuchang and belongs to the Tang Kingdom, and the laws of the Hu State are only for the people of the Hu Kingdom, the Tang Guo people, and the Yamen does not care." ”

Xuchang's, this is really a coincidence.

Bian Liang thought to himself, could it be an acquaintance, thinking about it and shaking his head again, in the Li family, he had never seen any young lady.

But no matter whose young lady it is, it is not right for the beggars to do this, he said, "You are doing bad things, forcing good people to become prostitutes!" ”

This kind of thing happened to him, and he had to take care of it.

Crooked nose continued, "Uncle, if we are beggars, we don't dare to do bad things, otherwise we will have to be beggars in the next life." However, some rich children, they not only beat and scolded us people, sometimes they also beat people to death, I heard the head of Luoyang say, a few days ago, our brothers in Xuchang, because they soiled the lady's carriage, were beaten to death by her subordinates, you say, this revenge should also be avenged. ”

Bianliang was a little silent, in Tongguan, he had seen some carriages rampaging on the road, and he didn't care about the lives of beggars.

A beggar is also a human being, and since he is a human being, of course he can have revenge, but he has always ignored this issue.

Squinted eyes said, "We have no dignity, but the grievances are clear, this big thing, even if it is not the slightest benefit, I will do it." ”

He knew that from the moment he picked up the broken bowl and became a beggar, there was no dignity.

Crooked his nose and said, "Uncle, if it's inconvenient for you to do this, don't do it." ”

After speaking, he greedily looked at the silver ticket in his hand, as if he was going to make some major decision, and finally he gritted his teeth, "Uncle, this silver ticket... Since the matter is dangerous, Bianliang is unwilling to go, and he should not take the silver ticket, but he is reluctant, so he only said half of the words.

"Go, go!" Bian Liang waved his hand, he had a lot of silver tickets on him now, and this money was nothing to him.

He had a burden on his mind before, and it was not a big deal to think about it now.

Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds to help the beggars avenge the beggars first, capture the young lady and teach her a lesson, and then rescue her, so he said, "Let's do it together." ”

Crooked nose saw him waving his hand, and immediately put away the silver ticket.

When the little beggar saw that he agreed to do things together, he clapped and applauded.

Slanted eyes looked at Bianliang's clothes and said, "Uncle, we beggars do things, it's not okay for you to dress like this." ”

Crooked nose listened, and gave him a blank look, "It's okay, just say the new brother, uncle, you just need to put some dust on your face, but when you get to the ground, everything must be done according to what I say." ”

He accepted Bianliang's silver ticket, so he naturally thought about everything for him.

Bian Liang nodded, he hadn't done anything like pretending to be a beggar, but he had seen it on a lot of TV before, and he thought it was quite interesting, so he got some ash from the burned firewood and smeared it, and asked the beggars how they were.

The crooked-nosed beggar gave him a little more, and then nodded in satisfaction.

The little beggar said excitedly, "Big brother, great, you can ask for food with us in the future, and I will give you half a street." ”

He thought that Bianliang was plastered, and he was really a beggar.

Crooked nose glared at him, "What nonsense, you are a beggar for the rest of your life, and the uncle is here to help us." ”

He was going to give the little beggar a slap, but when he thought of what Bianliang had said, the hand was raised in the air and didn't come down.

The little beggar grimaced at him, then grabbed Bianliang's arm, very affectionate, and the three of them walked towards Luoyang with a smile and a smile.

Tongguan is not close to Luoyang, it is not far away, it takes almost a day's trip, and in the evening, everyone decided to spend the night outside the city.

Bianliang taught the little beggar some swordsmanship again, and seeing that he practiced seriously, he couldn't help but draw a branch and practice beside him.

The crooked nose and slanted eyes found some hay early and fell asleep.

The next day, led by Crooked Nose, the four of them crossed many sheep intestine paths and came to the place where the beggars gathered, which was a desolate hillside.

Bian Liang secretly admired in his heart, these paths, no one walked at all, if it wasn't led by acquaintances, he wouldn't be able to walk out at all.

Some of the trails end in a small river, and you have to wade through the river to get to another road, some have several forks in the road, and some have turned around and have not walked a decent road.

When Bianliang arrived, there were already a lot of beggars around the small hillside, listening to the introduction of the crooked nose, those with red ropes on their feet were local beggars in Luoyang, and the beggars with red ropes on their heads were beggar leaders, and beggars from other places had red ropes tied to their hands and red ropes on their hands with crooked noses.

They sat for a while, and the crowd grew, and by noon they had finally gathered.

The beggar leader with the red rope on his head stood at the top of the hill and said loudly, "My brother told me that the young lady's carriage has arrived in Luoyang City, and will soon reach the main road ahead. ”

Bian Liang looked in the direction he pointed, there was a relatively wide road about five or six hundred meters in front, running north-south, the north was the center of Luoyang City, the south was some dilapidated small villages, and a large area of farmland was passed in the middle, and the beggar leader asked everyone to set up an ambush on the road near the farmland.

The little beggar and the slanted eyes excitedly held the wooden stick, followed closely behind the crooked nose, and when he saw Bianliang walking slowly, the little beggar immediately came over and pulled him, "Don't be afraid, there is me." ”

The little beggar said in an old-fashioned manner that he had forgotten who had taught him swordsmanship.

The sorghum fields in October were red and heavy, and people hid in them, and they couldn't see them at all.

Even if the wind blows, the sorghum only bows its head slightly, and when people enter it, even if they don't hide, the people on the road can't find out, and the beggars are very good at picking places.

Bianliang had never done farm work before, nor had he seen sorghum, looking at the full grains, he couldn't help but reach out to pick them, but he heard a beggar next to him say, "Brother, we can't steal other people's crops, we must have backbone in our business, otherwise we will be beggars, we will steal and rob thieves." ”

Bianliang was in an uproar when he heard this, and felt that the beggar's character was not bad.

At this time, at the end of the road, a white carriage came galloping.

Driving closer, Bianliang saw that the driver was a young man, dressed in white, straddling a horse, looking heroic, but his face looked a little anxious, looking back from time to time, as if there would be pursuers at any time.

Closer, closer.

The beggar's leader shouted, "Get up." ”

The beggars on both sides of the sorghum field immediately pulled up three thumb-thick tripping ropes.

The horse's hoof struck the rope and immediately fell, and the young man, who was in good skill, rolled on the ground and stood up, and then he drew his sword with one hand and helped the carriage with the other, and tried to hold it down.

The beggars rushed out the moment the horses fell to the ground, and the almost identical sticks, mixed with the shouts of the beggars, surrounded the carriage and the young man.

When the beggars rushed out of the sorghum field, Bianliang was surprised to find that the beggars had walked very carefully, and not a single sorghum had been trampled.

The crooked nose rushed to the front, but let the slanted eyes pull the little beggar and Bianliang to stand on the outermost periphery.

The young man looked at the beggars who came up, and the panic on his face became even worse, and he stammered a little, "You... You guys... What do you want to do! ”

The beggar leader ignored him, he looked at the brothers around him, although everyone was around, but no one made the first move, knowing that it was time for him to set an example.

He immediately picked up the stick and shouted, "Hit." ”

His stick was so unruly that it was struck at the lad on the head.

The young man swung his knife and kicked him away, but as soon as someone got up, a group of sticks smashed down overwhelmingly, and the young man blocked it a few times, but he couldn't stand so many people, and was quickly knocked to the ground.

Bianliang was afraid that the beggars would kill him, and was about to make a move, but he didn't expect the young man to cry on the ground and beg for mercy, he said, "Ladies and gentlemen, it's none of my business, it's the young lady who wants to elope with me, I don't want to, really, I'm innocent." ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the carriage and said, "Miss is in the carriage, you let me go, I will never dare again." ”

After saying that, I couldn't stop kowtowing.

The beggar got up from the ground, and the kick just now was a little hard, and there was some blood on the side of his mouth, and he wiped the blood off with the back of his hand, and said as he walked, "It's all tied." ”

At this time, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a very innocent-looking little girl, dressed in blue, leaned out, with a hint of stubbornness on her face, "Ma Baimian, you say this kind of thing, but you are still not human!" ”

Naturally, she said a young man who was kowtowing.

Ma Baimian cried and said, "Miss, please help and beg them, let me live, it's the villain who doesn't have eyes, the villain deserves to die, please Miss for the sake of the villain leading the horse for so many years, just spare my life." ”

The young lady's face became more and more pale, "Okay, you Ma Baimian, if you hadn't begged me to elope with you, the county lord would have followed a villain like you." ”

Speaking of sadness, she seemed to be a little unable to stand, and leaned on the frame of the car with one hand.

As soon as I heard her say that the county lord, Bianliang's head was about to explode, Xuchang was Master Li's cousin, wouldn't the county lord be his cousin?

When the beggar leader heard the county lord, he seemed even more excited, and he smiled, "County lord, this time you have to sell it for a good price." Then he waved his hand, "It's all tied." ”

Xuchang is a city in the Tang Kingdom, and the beggar leader knows it, but Li Changsheng is the one, and the beggar leader doesn't know.

For people of their class, perhaps the name of the city lord of Luoyang City will be a little louder.

In addition, Hu Guo is strong and Tang Guo is weak, so they don't care who is kidnapped, the higher their status, the more money they have.

The beggars stepped forward like wolves and tied Ma Baimian, who was begging for mercy, to tie it firmly, but when they stepped forward to tie up the county lord, they heard her shout, "Who dare! ”

Seeing that there was a sacrosanct look on her face, the beggars immediately slowed down and turned their heads to wait for the beggar's leader's instructions.

Then the lord said, "Do you know who my brother is? ”

When she said this, her voice and demeanor were indescribably arrogant.

"Stop!" Bianliang shouted, "Stop, stop, stop... While calling him, he ran forward, holding a silver ticket of one hundred taels in his hand, and said to the beggar leader, "This is my sister, this money is the wine money I gave to you, so don't tie it up." ”

The beggar leader looked at him in surprise, but soon his attention was attracted by the silver ticket, he took the silver ticket with both hands, but he sneered, "Since you are a gang, then you are all tied up." ”

The beggar leader likes silver tickets, but he likes more silver tickets, if everyone is tied, then the silver tickets in Bianliang's pocket are not all his.

Moreover, the one hundred taels of silver tickets given by Bianliang were seen by everyone, and he was going to divide them, and if they were found out later, he could do something.

When Bian Liang heard this, he immediately became angry, he grabbed the beggar's chest, lifted him above his head and said, "Is this enough!" ”

Unexpectedly, the beggar leader turned out to be a hard bone, and he shouted to the beggars who stopped, "What are you doing in a daze, give it to me!" ”

It's just a person, no matter how much you can fight, can you still be a saint, the beggar leader thought.

When he said this, some people were really ready to move, especially a white-bearded one, who vigorously encouraged the people around him to rush forward, but no one listened to him, after all, Bianliang is a person who can lift people above his head with one hand, and the beggars are still a little knowledgeable.

Bian Liang looked at it and secretly screamed that it was not good, he was not afraid of beggars, but he didn't want to beat this group of poor guys, and through a day of getting along with the three of them with crooked noses, his impression of beggars was not too bad.

He had an idea, threw the beggar leader to the ground, and stepped on his chest, "If you don't tell them to get out of here, I'll kill you, and then give them the silver tickets, and I won't believe it, every bone of them is as hard as yours." ”

After saying that, he snatched the silver ticket from the beggar's leader's hand.

The beggars listened to Bianliang's words and hesitated even more, and the white-bearded beggar said a little anxiously, "Head, what should I do?" ”

The beggar leader scolded, "Why don't you get out of here, do you want me to sit in my seat when I'm dead?" ”

The person who asked the question was the second-in-command of the beggar, and the beggar leader knew that the guy had been trying to replace him for a long time.

"Get out." The beggar leader shouted again!

The beggars suddenly dispersed, and the little beggar wanted to come up and say something to Bianliang, but he was also dragged away by his crooked nose and slanted eyes.

Bianliang left the beggar leader and gave him the silver ticket.

The guy looked like he wasn't lightly injured, but he was a faster runner than anyone else.

After driving away the beggar, Bianliang was about to step forward and ask who the princess was, but she said angrily, "If you dare to pretend to be my brother, you will die." ”

Bian Liang ignored her, just looked at Ma Baimian who was tied to the ground, and suddenly kicked him, although he didn't use much force, he also kicked him and screamed.

"It's so tasteless to elope with this kind of person, don't say it's my sister, my brother can't afford to lose this person."

The county lord was exposed by him, a little annoyed and angry, she didn't care about her demeanor, she crossed her waist with one hand, and pointed to Bianliang's nose with the other and roared, "You listen to me, my brother is Li!" Long! Bear! ”

Really.

Although he knew this answer for a long time, hearing her say this, Bianliang couldn't help but smile bitterly.

What kind of relatives are these, the father cheated on his son, and the son who was killed was almost hacked to death; This old girl eloped with a groom again, the key is that the groom didn't treat her well, and sold her as soon as she was in danger.

With such a sister, it's really a shame to be thrown home.

Bian Liang shook his head and whispered, "Light, isn't it shameful enough?" ”

As he spoke, he spat into the palm of his hand and wiped the ash from his face.

The county lord recognized it at once, and his expression was exaggerated, surprised, happy, shy, and kept changing on his face.

In the end, she crossed her hands, put them on her chest, and saluted, "Xiaofang has seen the eldest brother." ”

Hearing her name, Bian Liang sighed, the names that Master Li gave to his children and grandchildren are all vulgar, but his daughter's name is decent.

Li Xiaofang, good.
