The brothers' collection and flowers are the best reward for Yun Ming to code words for ten hours a day. ）

"Report to a thousand households, there is a ten-member military team of Quanzhou Mansion patrolling the roadside ahead, and they say that they are searching for red turban thieves!" A Baihu rode a horse with dozens of soldiers, came to Zhao Qing's horse and immediately knelt on the ground and said.

"Summoning them over, I have something to ask them, why did this red turban thief come to the boundary near my Quanzhou Mansion when he was nearly 2,000 miles away in Chuzhou?" Zhao Qing's face sank, and he immediately waved his hand and said.

"Yes! Senho-sama! The hundred-man immediately got up and replied, turned on his horse and shouted to the soldier to gallop forward.

Only then did Zhao Qing turn around and say in a deep voice to the window of a carriage next to him: "County Lord! It is inconvenient for the minister to dismount at this time, please forgive me! I found the soldiers of Quanzhou Mansion in front, and I summoned them to interrogate! ”

"No need to be polite! Zhao Qing, please take down those soldiers of Quanzhou Mansion for me immediately! Bring it to me! A crisp and pleasant voice came from the window.

"Yes! Princess. Zhao Qing immediately replied solemnly, and immediately issued an order to the herald, but did not ask why.

In a moment, he saw that the previous hundred households were running back with ten soldiers who had been bound.

"Why are you arresting us, we are the personal army of Lord Zakecha, who is searching for thieves, how can you treat us like this?" The name of the first ten households immediately walked forward unconvinced and said.

"What thieves are you hunting? Are you looking for the Red Turban Thief? Zhao Qing couldn't help but ask with a sneer.

"Not bad! Zhao Qianhu, although you are also a Qianhu, but if you are nothing compared to our family, why do you treat us like this? "This ten households raised their heads and recognized who Zhao Qing was, among the two provinces of Fuzhejiang, Zhao Qingqing was the most shabby thousand households, with the least soldiers and provisions, and the garrison Longwang Town was also very poor, if it was not an important checkpoint, it would have been withdrawn from the military camp there a long time ago.

After nearly a hundred years, the population of the Central Plains decreased sharply, even Longwang Town, which is only a hundred miles away from Quanzhou Prefecture, has only more than 10,000 people, and nearly 100,000 people a hundred years ago.

Quanzhou Prefecture has a population of nearly one million, with about 400,000 permanent residents, and the rest are craftsmen, craftsmen, merchants and hundreds of thousands of people who make a living around the port of Thornton.

As a soldier of Za Ke's family, this ten households naturally looked down on Zhao Qing, so he was so arrogant.

"Red Turban Thief? Yesterday in the city of Quanzhou, did you find two red turban thieves? One was killed by you, and another woman escaped? Zhao Qing shouted loudly at this time, and the corner of his eye couldn't help but glance at the carriage not far away from him as he spoke.

"Yes! Lord Zhao, let me go! Now we are going to hunt down the two thieves who rescued the female thief, and those two are not weak! Under the siege of our soldiers, we were seriously wounded and escaped far away, and we were ordered to pursue us, how can you bind us here? Hurry up and let go. The ten-family shouted.

Zhao Qing was about to speak, but he only heard a coquettish sound coming from the carriage.

"Zhao Qing! Cut this man down at once! He is the one who slew my near servant. With that, the curtain was lifted, and Xiang Lan'er's face with great anger appeared.

"Yes! Princess. Zhao Qing heard Xiang Lan'er's words, without the slightest hesitation, immediately pulled out his sword from his waist, turned over and dismounted, and forced the ten households.

"The county lord? Oh my God, how did you get out of the city, you thief? When the ten households saw Xiang Lan'er's face, they immediately recognized the woman who was rescued yesterday, as a personal soldier of Za Kecha, he knew that this woman was the county lord, and they whose lives were tied to the chief officer, they could only treat this county lord as a red scarf thief.

And now that she has not only come out of the city, but also brought troops here, she will definitely not give up, and at this time, when he saw Zhao Qing holding his sword and pressing towards him, he was immediately frightened and wanted to retreat and flee.

"Bold minion! He actually spoke wildly to the county lord when he was dying! Zhao Qing was immediately furious, kicked on the knee of the ten households, and when the ten households involuntarily knelt on the ground, he immediately waved the long sword in his hand, and the head of the ten households was cut off with a sword, and under the splash of blood, the ten tiger squad soldiers who had not spoken a word immediately shouted in fear.

"Lord Baihu, after entering the village, after careful investigation, no trace of those two people was found, but only these two horses were found to be tied to this tree in the village! Two soldiers had been sent out to conduct a preliminary search on the road leading to the mountain, but no trace of anyone had passed by! A man from ten households bowed in front of a hundred horses and said.

Looking at the blood stains on the two empty horses tied to the trees next to them, the search for the unsuccessful Baihu showed a desperate look on his face.

"If you can't catch someone, it's a capital offense, but these two horses are indeed ridden by those two thieves!" Thinking of this, the hundred households turned their faces to look at the more than ten villagers gathered in front of him, and a sinister smile appeared on his face.

"Where have you hidden the men who rode these two horses? If you refuse to hand them over, you should be punished as a thief. The hundred-hundred-household shouted.

"My lord, we are just a small village at the foot of the mountain, and these two horses really came from nowhere, perhaps they were abandoned by their owners and came to us." The eldest old man, the ninth master, said in a trembling voice, not long ago, two sturdy military horses suddenly ran in the village, which made them feel a little surprised, and the ninth master in the village knew a little about the nature of horses, so he tied these two horses to the entrance of the village, waiting for the next day to be sent to the nearby post station, but he did not dare to detain the military horses privately.

In the face of these Mengyuan cavalry, it is no better than the Han soldiers, they have no reason to kill people, decades ago in the countryside to marry a wife, even the first night of the bride's land had to be handed over to the military commander, in order to be considered a courtesy, but later the people broke out countless murders, in recent years it has gradually stopped.

It is also because of this that Lijia Village has gradually declined in the past hundred years, so that it is as sparsely populated as it is now, so there is no longer a military station.

"Bastard thing!" The hundred households raised the spear in their hands, and instantly stabbed it into the throat of the ninth master, and when he pulled out the gun, he kicked the nearly seventy-year-old man out with one kick, and the blood drew a trajectory in the air and scattered it to the ground.

"Who else knows anything about those two thieves? Say it! The hundred-man roared with a fierce aura on his face, and the spear in his hand was still dripping with blood.

"My lord, how can you kill our ninth grandfather like this, he is telling the truth, you can't wronged us, we don't know where these two horses came from, but this is a military horse, and we don't dare to lie to you if we have the audacity!" Although Aunt Li was very scared in her heart, except for the ninth master in the village, she was still a little bold, and she could still say this in front of the officers and soldiers.

Her heart was also full of anger at the death of the Ninth Master, and if the entire village hadn't been looted by these officers and soldiers, the population would not have been less than one-tenth of the population in a hundred years.

"Don't you say yes?" The hundred households waved their hands to the soldiers around him with a pale face, and shouted: "Cut!" ”

Aunt Li was immediately pressed to the ground by two soldiers, her head was immediately cut off, and blood spurted into the sky, and when those villagers saw this, someone immediately shouted: "Yuan dogs, you treat us people in the Central Plains like this!" We're struggling with you! Under the shouts of the villagers, more than a dozen old and weak women and children showed grief and indignation on their faces, and launched a feeble attack on the officers and soldiers surrounding them.

This kind of unprovoked killing is constantly staged in the Central Plains, and the villagers have never seen the owners of the two horses at all, but it is for this reason that Jiu Ye and Aunt Li have been killed, and the villagers know that even if they don't fight, they will not be spared, so they simply fight with these officers and soldiers, and the dissatisfaction with the Yuan Court in their hearts for many years finally broke out.

For a hundred years, the Yuan soldiers never regarded the civilians in the Central Plains as human beings at all, and they had always been regarded as tools for the Yuan court to generate wealth, until a few years ago, when a large-scale uprising of the rebel army appeared, the Yuan soldiers in the southern part of the Central Plains were reined in.

However, this group of soldiers led by Za Kecha is an elite soldier brought back from the northern grasslands, and has won many victories in the battle with the Hulun tribe in the Western Regions, so he was sent to Quanzhou after the war. As a detachment prime minister, it is not surprising that he can get this fat shortage.

"Hah! It turns out that all the thieves in this village dare to resist? The hundred-digit man was immediately furious, but in an instant, his eyes suddenly showed joy, and he seemed to think of something.

"Come on! Cut down all these thieves! The Baihu put away his spear, took out his waist knife from his waist, and immediately commanded dozens of officers and soldiers around him, and angrily issued an order to kill the innocent villagers.

More than a dozen unarmed old and weak villagers were the opponents of heavily armed soldiers, and the terrible screams and blood continued to echo and fly in the open space of the village.

"Mother! Thankfully, I was able to drag the two into the hole in time and restore the nearby pavement to its original state! The two officers and soldiers had already ridden back, and if they didn't see them, they would probably look for another intersection! Shang Yu said as he placed the Awakening Grass he had just picked from the mountains between the lips of Guo Rui and the man surnamed Tang.

At this time, Shang Yu and Shang Mei had already lifted the two unconscious people from the hidden cave to the highest position on the cliff, and this position could not only easily fall down the rope to pick Qumei fruits, but also overlook the merchant village.

"You kid, tell you not to meddle! If you don't listen, you'll get into trouble. We're just ordinary people, and this kind of thing is not something we should be looking into. Shang Mei looked at his son with some reproach and said.

"But there are a lot of silver in the money bags on the waists of these two people, and when they wake up, they will have to ask for some, and these Red Turban Army will not take us out of anger!" For the Red Turban Army, Shang Mei's family is not completely ignorant.

"Mother! Don't say that, how can grace be rewarded? Shang Yu frowned and said, he has always respected his mother, but his mother's slightly philistine words at this time made him a little embarrassed.

"Grace is not reciprocated? How can it be done, we received their silver taels, and then they will also repay the favor, and the two do not owe each other! Isn't that the best of both worlds? When will you learn to be smarter? Only rich people can talk about grace and don't forget to repay this kind of thing! We just ask for a few silver taels, which is nothing to them, but to us poor people it is a very practical reward! After glaring at Shang Yu, Shang Mei no longer paid attention to his son, but walked towards the cave on the edge of the cliff.

She hadn't walked up the mountain for about a year, and now that her body suddenly felt completely recovered, Shang Mei's mood was still good, and she wanted to take this opportunity to see the scenery nearby.

The effect of the awakening grass is very strong, Guo Rui woke up first at this time, only to feel a sharp pain in his shoulder, and when he raised his head, he saw Shang Yu's concerned gaze.

"Little brother! Where is this? Did you save us? Guo Rui looked around as he spoke, and saw a man surnamed Tang sitting next to him, so he couldn't help but feel relieved.

For more than a day, the two of them kept running around to avoid the search and arrest of the officers and soldiers, and they were seriously injured when they entered the mouth of the valley, and finally fell to the ground and fainted.

"I can't save you, but I saw that the officers and soldiers were about to chase after me, so I helped you in!" Shang Yu said with some embarrassment, where did he use the ground? Obviously, he dragged two adult men into the hole like a dead dog, but it was to save people at that time, so he didn't care about that much.

"Thank you for your kindness! Little brother, please let me know your name below, so that we can thank you in the future. Guo Rui leaned against the cave wall and said slowly, with an indescribable majesty in his eyes.

"Righteous man! You are a Red Army Scarf, I know that! Yesterday I saw you in the city to save people, so I saw that it was the two of you who would be helped to the cave, my name is Shang Yu, and I am named Shang Sanjiu in the book of the Yuan people! It is my blessing to be able to meet these two righteous men, and I dare not say thank you. Shang Yu said with a look of adoration in his eyes.

"Is that you?" Guo Rui couldn't help but shake his body, and a sudden expression appeared on his face, he was already thinking about why this young man felt a little familiar in his eyes at this moment.

"Brother Guorui! Where is this place? At this moment, the man surnamed Tang also woke up, opened his mouth and asked a little weakly.

Before Guorui could answer, he heard an exclamation from the entrance of the cave.

"Xiao Yu! Oh no, there's a fire in the village! Let's go back to put out the fire, it's too late and there's nothing left at home! Shang Mei ran down from the entrance of the cave, his face was a little pale and he panicked and said, the village is full of wooden houses, if there is a fire, it will be difficult to put out, if the house is gone, there will be nowhere to live, how can Shang Mei not panic.
