Chen Changping was stuck on the ground like a nail, with a horizontal knife stuck in the snow in front of him, a strong bow on his back, and two quiver pots hanging on his left and right waists, which were densely filled with feather arrows. An old sheepskin jacket was covered with scars from knives and guns, several pieces of his pants had been torn off, a pair of hairy thighs were almost completely exposed, and only a pair of straw sandals were worn on his feet. A cloth belt was tied around his head, and his grassy hair was tied, and there was only a pair of eyes, staring brightly ahead.

Behind him were more than a hundred men in ragged clothes, some with knives and guns, but most of them were only carrying farm tools such as sheep forks, and some with sickles hanging from their waists and some sharpened sticks in their hands.

A horse came running from afar, and many men who had been sitting on the snow also stood up one after another, with a look of concern on their faces.

A young man with a sleek figure jumped off his horse, and after just one glance at the young man's face, Chen Changping's heart sank.

"Brother Changping!" As soon as the young man opened his mouth, he was crying.

"Changfu, what about your eldest brother Chang'an?" Although there was little hope, Chen Changping still asked with a glimmer of hope.

Chen Changfu's tears flowed down his eyes, "Brother Changping, the officers and soldiers are catching up, I didn't see Brother Chang'an."

Chen Changan lowered his head and suddenly grasped the hilt of the long knife in front of him.

"Brother Chang'an, did they see that the enemy was strong, so they dodged on their own? There are not necessarily accidents." Behind Chen Changping, a slightly older man said in a low voice.

"Fart!" Chen Changping raised his head suddenly, "Chang'an, don't they know, if they escape, our people here will face the pursuit of the officers and soldiers, and now, since the officers and soldiers have caught up, it can only mean that Chang'an, Changgui and they have had an accident. Changfu, who is the leader of the officers and soldiers?"

Chen Changfu wiped a handful of tears, "Under the banner of a surname Zhu, but I saw Liu Chenglin at the front." ”

Chen Changping's expression darkened suddenly, "It turned out to be him, and he actually came back?"

"Brother Changping, what should we do now?" Chen Changfu asked.

Chen Changping looked up to the sky and sighed, "Since it is Liu Chenglin, Chang'an is afraid that it is no longer there, leaving ten people, the rest of the people, go immediately, go and tell the villagers, except for food, clothing, and the rest of the things, throw them all away, speed up and enter the mountain, only when you enter the mountain, can you have a way to live."

"Brother Changping, Liu Chenglin is so powerful, what can ten people do?"

"What's the use of a hundred?" Chen Changping lowered his eyelids, "You guys, you can also help those who can't go fast to speed up, as for the ten of us, since we have Master Liu in hand, at least let him throw a rat bogey. No matter how powerful Liu Chenglin is, he doesn't dare to ignore his son, mother, and sister!"

Several people were dragged over horizontally and vertically and thrown in front of Chen Changping roughly. Chen Changping squatted down, pulled out the knife stuck in the snow, and rested it on the neck of one of the guys with a neat mustache.

"Chen Changping, don't kill me, if you kill me, Cheng Lin won't let you go, he will break you into pieces." The mustache screamed in panic.

Chen Changping smiled: "Master Liu, I want to tell you a good news, your son has returned, and he is about to catch up with us."

Master Huliu's eyes lit up, "Chen Changping, you are also a famous hero in our Jingzhou, let me go, I am not to blame in the past, how about it?" As long as I promise something, Cheng Lin will definitely agree to you."

Chen Changping smiled miserably and said, "Master Liu, what's the use of talking about this now?" Liu Chenglin is in the Heng Navy, and he is just a captain, what can he do? This time, the envoy of the Henghai Navy wants our brother's head, and he wants to kill all of us, do you think I don't know? At this time, you still have to coax us?"

Master Liu swallowed a mouthful of saliva, "There's a lot of room for operation here, when the time comes, we will report that one has already killed you, is it possible that the adults really want to see your heads with their own eyes?" Chen Changping, in the eyes of the Jiedu envoy, you are just a little person like an ant."

"Although Chen Changping is a small person, he never dared to pin the lives of more than 1,000 people on you officials." Chen Changping sneered: "If it weren't for your tyrannical expropriation, forcing the common people to ruin and not being able to survive, how would I have come to this point?"

"I'm also on orders!" Master Liu shouted again and again, "The order from above and down, my small county order, how dare you disobey?"

"Master Liu, how many of these rampant extortions were sent to Cangzhou, and how many of them went into your Old Master Liu's pocket, you have counted it yourself." Chen Changping stood up, and the cold blade slapped Old Man Liu's face, almost fainting with fright. Let's gamble our lives and see if your son wants the heads of our people, or his father's life? If you want to live, let's live together, if you want to die, let's die together."

He stood up, straightened his spine, and looked in the direction he had come.

In the midst of a few snows, several fast horses trampled into the snow dragon and galloped towards this side, and behind them, more foot soldiers also appeared in Chen Changping's field of vision.

Chen Changping dragged Master Liu from the ground, and the big knife rested on Master Liu's neck.

The galloping war horse neighed, the people stood up, the horses' hooves fell heavily, countless snow splashed up, and when the snow and dust fell, a general in his early thirties with armor appeared in front of Chen Changping's eyes.

"Chen Changping!" The long cherry spear in Liu Chenglin's hand stretched out straight and pointed at Chen Changping.

"Liu Chenglin, we meet again." Chen Changping laughed, "I don't want your mother's life, you can let the horse come!"

"Chenglin, don't." Master Liu exclaimed.

"Brother!" On the side of Master Liu, a young woman supported another middle-aged woman with a haggard face.

Liu Chenglin's eyes were almost dripping blood, he turned over and dismounted, and walked forward a few steps forward with the red cherry spear, but when he saw the knife in Chen Changping's hand, he deviated slightly, but he stopped helplessly.

"What do you want?" Liu Chenglin said angrily.

"I didn't think about anything, I just wanted you to go back obediently today, and when we got to a safe place, we would naturally release your family back." Chen Ping'an Road.

"Impossible." Liu Chenglin flatly refused.

"Then we'll just have to shoot and break up. Everybody's dead and pulled down." Chen Changping smiled: "We were originally a group of poor men with cheap lives, and if we die, we will die, a few of them are different, I'm afraid we are reluctant to die, right?"

"Cheng Lin, save me!" Old Man Liu cried out in mourning.

"Deputy Lieutenant Liu, why don't you do it yet, what's nonsense?" Several horses galloped over, and immediately there was a roar, "What nonsense are you talking about these thieves?"

"Captain Zhu, my family, fell into the hands of these thieves." Liu Chenglin turned around and said to the general on the horse.

The later person is called Zhu Jun, who is the real commander of this army, the captain of Zhaowu of the sixth grade, although Liu Chenglin is also a captain, but he is the deputy lieutenant under the sixth grade. It is Zhu Jun's deputy.

"Suppressing bandits and exterminating thieves is a major military matter, Deputy Lieutenant Liu, after exterminating this group of thieves, we have to quickly return to the building to prepare for a big war, where is there time to delay here?" Zhu Jun shouted: "These anti-thieves are so stubborn, where do they have the courage to harm your family?" Moreover, your father was originally the commander of Shiyi County, but now that such a big disaster has happened, the Jiedu envoy is already furious, how can he still miss the right thing for him?"

"Captain Zhu, this is my father!" Liu Chenglin's sword eyebrows were upside down, "Do you want me to be an unfilial and disobedient person?"

"I don't need you, I'll come, let me fulfill your reputation for destroying your relatives for the sake of moderation." Zhu Jun laughed and galloped forward, the war horse just ran out, there was a wail, and it fell to the ground with a bang, Zhu Jun rolled on the ground in embarrassment a few times before getting up, just saw Liu Chenglin pulling the bloody spear out of the horse's neck.

"Liu Chenglin, do you want to rebel?" Zhu Jun was furious, raised his knife and walked towards Liu Chenglin, walked a few steps, but stopped again, pointed at Liu Chenglin and shouted: "Take down this anti-thief accomplice for me."

The voice was loud, but except for a few guards around him, no one answered. It was a few guards, and after taking a few steps forward, they also stopped a little timidly.

"Captain Zhu, I know how dissatisfied you are with me on weekdays, but at this time, if you want to harm my family, don't blame me for being unkind to you." Liu Chenglin said angrily.

"Are you trying to rebel?" Zhu Jun was so angry that he was crazy, but he knew that if he faced Liu Chenglin with his own skills, it would really be the birthday boy who hanged himself, and he was afraid that his life would be long.

The foot soldiers behind Lu Lu followed one after another, and when they saw that the two chief officers were facing each other, they looked at each other for a while, and they didn't know what to do.

"Captain Zhu, after this matter is settled, I will go to the Jiedu envoy to ask for guilt." Liu Chenglin hugged his fist at him, dropped a sentence coldly, and then turned his head to look at Chen Changping: "Chen Changping, Chen Anchang and Chen Changgui are in my hands now, they are not dead, how about I exchange them for my family?"

Chen Changping's face changed, "Are they still alive?"

"Of course alive. Come, bring them up." The phalanx of foot soldiers in the rear cracked, and two bloodied men were dragged to the front of the formation. It is Chen Changping's younger brother Chen Chang'an, Chen Changgui.

Looking at the two brothers opposite, Chen Changping's eyes were red, and he lowered his head for a moment, but he resolutely raised his head and said: "Don't change, Liu Chenglin, if you want to kill you, kill it, the lives of my two brothers are not as good as the lives of the thousands of people behind me."

Liu Chenglin was stunned for a moment before he said angrily: "Then what do you want?"

"We entered Daqingshan, and when it is safe, I will naturally put your family back. Liu Chenglin, you also know that I, Chen Changping, have always been good at talking."
