Luoyang, the capital of the gods, is known as "the middle of the sky", which extends in all directions, connecting the famous towns in all directions in the sea.

Among them, the road connecting Xijing Chang'an to the west is the most important, the two capitals are separated by 835 miles, and there are several roads connected alone, there are both the royal roads for the holy car to travel between the two capitals, and there are post roads and pavilions along the way, as for the private roads and convenient roads between the private counties and townships, it is even more innumerable.

Among them, the main arterial roads with many public and private, passenger and freight exchanges, naturally still have to be post roads. There are many travelers along the way, and the cars and horses are endless, like an endless artery of life.

In August, a few rains took away some of the summer and autumn heat, but also made the roads a little muddy. Travelers, regardless of their purpose, always have their own hardships, and are far less comfortable than being in their homes.

During the journey, suddenly there was a startling noise in the middle of the road, and it turned out to be a carriage full of goods, the wheels of which were stuck in the pothole, so that the axle broke directly, and the goods on the car were also spilled on the road, which turned out to be bundles of straw bundles of medicinal herbs.

"Blind bitter ghost, why don't you look at the road!"

A middle-aged man in Tsing Yi seemed to be the owner of the goods, and when he saw the medicine spilled on the muddy road, he suddenly became angry, turned his horse back from the front, rushed forward, and whipped the coachman who also fell to the ground and was covered in mud.

At this time, the travelers in front and behind the road saw this scene, and their reactions were varied, some people gloated and laughed, some people carefully checked their luggage and goods, and some people with obscene character had already rushed up and began to loot the medicine in the mud, and the scene suddenly became extremely chaotic.

Seeing that the goods were robbed, the middle-aged owner became more angry, and while beating and punishing the errant coachman more vigorously, he was so irritable that he scolded the rest of the servants to hurry up and grab the medicine.

The coachman struggled in the mud, and the whole person had become a mud man, screaming and begging for mercy was extremely miserable, and at this time someone next to him could not look at it, and a young knight stepped forward, snatched the horsewhip from the hand of the owner of the goods, and shouted angrily: "Something wrong has happened, and it should be remedied as soon as possible, you are really vicious, do you want to beat people to death in the street?" ”

"I teach my own errant slave, you idler......"

The owner of the goods was distressed and angry, raised his hand and was about to scold the nosy young man, but then he saw that the young man held the sword with his backhand, and had already drawn out a cold and flickering blade, his face changed, and he took a few steps back to attract a few healthy servants to bow to the left and right, and his courage grew again, pointing at the young man and saying angrily: "This cheap slave ruined my cart of good goods, and it is not a pity to die!" I advise you to step down and ask less questions! ”

Those who dare to go on a business journey, which is not a good kind, this owner before and after a few carts of goods, there are many followers, there are already slaves with iron rods to come forward, but they are afraid of the sharp blade on the young man's waist and do not come forward.

When the young man saw this posture, he was also a little hesitant for a while, especially when he saw that the owner of the goods was fearless and waiting to punish the slave who made a mistake, half ashamed, half pitiful, and after hesitating for a moment, he shouted: "You punish the guilty slave, outsiders don't ask." But since I have opened my mouth, I must not fail to explain, anyway, you are going to kill this slave and sell it to me! ”

When the owner heard this, he sneered even more: "It's still a righteous and well-born righteous man, you have to be nosy, it's very good, this cheap slave is usually not worth half a fine silk, but today I destroyed a cart of heavy goods, you have to save his life, and you have to take this sin down." Fifty horses of silk, you can take it, you will lead people away, you can't take it out, remember the road and gossip, get out of the way! ”

At this time, a lot of spectators gathered on the post road, and when they heard this conversation, their reactions were varied, some scolded the owner of the goods for being greedy and cruel, some advised the young people not to be strong, and some of the people who had participated in the looting before saw this scene and took the initiative to return the medicine and persuade the owner to leave a glimmer of leeway.

"Liu Changshi, do we want to ......?"

Among the onlookers, there were more than a dozen sturdy knights on the periphery of the crowd, and one of the knights turned his head to ask Liu Youqiu, who was wearing a gray round-necked robe in the middle.

"No, it's important."

After Liu Youqiu heard this, he waved his hand, and his eyes were observed on the onlookers, and then he made another move: "Continue on the road, I have already traveled through several post houses, but I don't see Zhou Xing." The dog thief can still enter the post at the right time, but you know that there must be a means to hide, and you still have to find him out as soon as possible! ”

After that, the group continued on the road, but the accident on the post road was still not solved, the owner of the goods bit to death and refused to let go, although the nosy young man was freshly dressed and angry and had three or five retinues, but for a time he could not take out so many goods, he groaned for a long time, he turned over and dismounted, patted his horse mount, and said: "This horse is worth more than fifty gold, so easy slave, if you refuse, today I will be a lesson." If you meet again in the wilderness in the coming year, you just hope that you still have more people, otherwise you ......"

Speaking of this, the tone has been very unkind, after the owner heard the words, his face also changed, and when he saw that the young man's mount was a beautiful coat and a beautiful posture, he was also greedy for a while, so he smiled and said: "So, then thank you for the righteous man's favor to me." ”

The onlookers saw this, and for a while there was also a surge of emotion, originally at the beginning there were people who made fun of the young man's self-conscious meddling, and when he saw that he was even willing to give away such a famous horse, just to save an inconspicuous slave on the way, he was impressed by it.

The Tang people were brave and righteous, and in addition to praising the young people for their high righteousness, they were also extremely shameless for the greed and cruelty of the cargo owners. At this moment, someone in the crowd shouted: "Is there one person in the flesh of the world!" The righteous don't need to fold their horses, and all of us present dare to donate half a penny, and we can also make up enough money for this profiteer! ”

The man didn't just say beautiful words, he shouted and shouted at the same time, took out hundreds of Kaiyuan Tongbao tied into a bunch in his bag, and fell directly into the mud in front of the owner's feet, shouting angrily: "Collect!" ”

After saying that, he left the place without looking back. With this person as an example, the surrounding onlookers responded one after another, or money or silk, and soon gathered into a small pile in front of the cargo owner.

The so-called public grievances are difficult to commit, although the owner of the goods is numerous, but on this important road, there is an endless stream of correspondents, and everyone complains about him, which also makes him palpitate, and he repeatedly gives his hands: "Enough, enough......"

One thing has been satisfactorily resolved at this point, the young man's face changed, and he suddenly raised his arms and shouted: "Please stay in Qunyi, and let Xue return it!" ”

As he spoke, he turned his head and looked at the horse with an unbearable expression, but he gritted his teeth and waved his arms, drew his sword and slashed at the horse's neck, and the horse fell to the ground with a wailing.

The young man turned to look at the stunned crowd, his expression was a little sad, but he quickly became uplifted, and smiled at everyone: "Although good horses are rare, I am only righteous!" Kill horses on the way, please treat the masses, and please donate goods, do good deeds and help righteousness, etc. ”

When everyone saw the young man like this, they applauded even more. When the owner of the goods saw this, his expression was even more alarmed, and he did not dare to collect the goods spread in one place, so he drove his slave to drive the wagon on the road, and as for the coachman who was seriously injured by his whipping, he was naturally left in place.

The young man asked his entourage to carry the carcass of the horse to the grass on the left side of the road, and the water from the canal washed it away. At the same time, someone moved the coachman who was rescued by everyone to the stream, and when the mud and blood on his body were washed away, a scrawny body was revealed, with whip marks and flesh turned over, and it was very miserable to look at.

"In the lower part of the yellow color, there is just gold sore medicine in the bag, I hope to do a little bit of work."

A thin middle-aged man in a cloth robe walked out of the carriage in the crowd, if Liu Youqiu and the others were still here, they would definitely be able to recognize that this was Zhou Xing, who had been tracking all the way after they left the Shendu but had disappeared.

Zhou Xing was dressed in an ordinary travel outfit in cloth, although there was still a lingering yin owl between his eyebrows and eyes, but when he lined up the crowd and patiently diagnosed and treated the injured, no one would guess that this seemingly ordinary pedestrian was Zhou Xing who made everyone in the world gnash their teeth!

Zhou Xing has been a prisoner for many years, and he has seen no matter how miserable people are, and he quickly treated the injuries of the injured, and won the applause of the surrounding onlookers.

At this time, the young man also presided over the division of horse meat and returned with the donation of goods and goods, turned his head and thanked Zhou Xing again and again, and wanted to pay for the consultation, but Zhou Xing naturally would not collect it.

"The righteous deeds of the young people make the audience admire. But thou slave thou shalt be kept in care, and thou shalt not be tossed and toiled again. I still have a spare car to drive, why not go along for a ride, to the front of the store, and then make a plan? ”

Zhou Xing looked at the young man, also with a look of appreciation, and took the initiative to invite him to go along.

The young man nodded when he heard this, and his entourage also had horses or mules, and they were really not suitable for transporting the wounded.

"In the middle of Xiashu, the people of Chengdu, the Yang Sect is secretive, and I don't know the next high?"

When he hit the road again, the young man shared a car with Zhou Xing and took the initiative to introduce himself.

After hearing this, Zhou Xing just twisted his beard and smiled: "It's just a high-level official, and it's not enough to worry about it." Yang Lang is on the way, returning to his hometown or wandering? ”

The young man Yang Xianzong had a good impression of Zhou Xing, who took the initiative to help him, and he didn't hide it after hearing it, so he smiled and said: "It's just a disgusting child in the next door, and the relatives urge you to do a job, go east to the divine capital, and there is no improvement after a few months of living." It happened that there was a big murderer in the court who walked out of the emperor's house, and there were many righteous disciples in the world who wanted to chase and kill him, and there was nothing to do left and right, and he participated in the grand event. ”

After Zhou Xing heard this, his expression became a little unnatural, and he asked: "The so-called murderer in Yang Lang's words is not just ......"

"Zhou Xing, the former Qiu official servant, is now disgusted with it, this thief is squirming on people's lives for glory, and he has no calculation for evil, so he should kill him at the right time! The violent and evil, the heavens are disgusted, their people have not left the capital, the post road has been leaked to the field, and there are even people in the city of God who ask for their heads at a price of hundreds of gold......"

The young man talked eloquently, unaware that the Lord was in front of him.
