Chapter 198: The Firehead Army
Xiaoliu bit the steamed bun and nodded slightly.
"Uncle Zheng, can you wait for me, I have something to do, I'll be back soon."
"Then you have to hurry, or it's too late, and the recruiting team will be closed."
"yes, I know."
After Xiaoliu finished eating, he left the inn.
Wander the streets, looking for a shop to open at home.
After walking for a while, I found one, and was about to walk in, when I suddenly paused, went to the side, and after a while I found a little boy of five or six years old with a letter.
"Little brother, you help me send this inside, give it to the shopkeeper, this candy will be given to you first, and when you send it back, the rest of the sugar will be yours."
"Really? Okay, I'll send, what do you want to say? ”
The little boy's innocent eyes stared at her.
"You just tell the shopkeeper to send it to your home, and nothing else."
"Oh!"
Xiao Liu hid in the corner, watched the little boy enter the shop, and touched the golden beans on his body: "Fortunately, there is still some money left." ”
Soon she saw the little boy come out, and the shopkeeper came out after him, and the little boy pointed to her, and she quickly ducked.
He wrapped the candy he had promised the little boy in a paper wrap and left it in place, and walked away.
She went to the pharmacy one after another, a shop specializing in selling hidden weapons...... After equipping himself, he returned to the inn: "Uncle Zheng, I'm fine, let's go." ”
"Well, let's go."
The two of them went to the barracks, and there was a table at the door, where someone was specially recruiting, and on top of this stack of papers.
"Are you two soldiers?"
The steward looked at Xiao Liu and the two.
"I'm a military doctor, I know how to heal, this is my nephew, and I'm also a ......"
Before Uncle Zheng finished speaking, Xiao Liu immediately answered.
"I'm going to be drafted into the army, I'm going to be a general."
"Hahaha......"
The steward laughed: "I heard me right, you want to be a general?" You little kid, you haven't grown any hair, so let's go back to eat for two years first! ”
The other also smiled and said: "Seeing that you are only twelve or thirteen years old, you can live for two years, but life in the military camp is not easy." ”
Xiaoliu shouted, "I'm fifteen years old, but my family is poor and I don't eat well, so I haven't grown taller." ”
Nangong Han and Liufeng walked back outside, passed by this side, and glanced at this side.
Xiaoliu bowed his head slightly, what should I do, why is Uncle Huang here, won't he find me? Don't, or you have to be scolded! "Master......"
Nangong Han raised his hand and motioned for him to be silenced.
"Lord Wang!"
The people here saluted.
"Hmm."
Nangong Han nodded, glanced at Xiao Liu, and left indifferently.
Xiao Liumu sent them into the tent area before exhaling, fortunately, they were not discovered.
Isn't this a city guarded by my brothers? How not to see them.
"Okay, you kid looks at the thin arms and legs, don't shout bitterness, you can't leave when you want to, sign it."
The steward motioned for Xiao Liu and the two to sign, and then one of them gave two taels of silver, and someone took them down to make arrangements.
Nangong Han entered the tent: "What did you want to say just now?" ”
He rushed from Xicheng that day, repelled the enemy, the deputy general was injured and died, and Huaicheng was temporarily unmanned, so he presided over here first and waited for someone to be sent from above.
"Master...... The county lord, out of the capital, just got the news that the county lord was assassinated, and he is currently ...... Missing! ”
Liufeng lowered his head, afraid of the master's anger, and hesitated to speak.
Nangong Han glared at him fiercely: "Why didn't you send the news earlier?" ”
"At first, the Zhenguo Mansion was afraid that something would happen to the county lord, so it hid it, but later it was known, and then it was ......"
"Which direction are you going?"
Nangong Han's eyes were cold.
"According to the people below, it seems to have come to the north, that is, ...... We're here. ”
"Quickly clean up the nearby hundred miles, all suspicious people, don't need to report, kill!" Find the county lord and bring it back unscathed! ”
"Yes!"
Flowing Wind turned and withdrew.
Nangong Han clenched his fists and squeaked: "Don't let this king know who it is!" ”
……
"Second son, the letter from the following is sent quickly!"
Tang Er had been looking for two days and two nights near Yu'er Mountain, and he hadn't closed his eyes for three days and three nights, and he even broke into the nearby bandits' dens and ran around.
It's just that I didn't find Xiaoliu.
Tang Er opened it, and from the first word, he saw the familiar handwriting, which was written by Xiao Liu, probably that is, she encountered an assassination, but she was fine, don't worry.
Didn't say where she was or what she was doing.
It's very brief, and I guess I'm afraid of exposing myself.
Tang Er breathed a sigh of relief, this relaxation, the belief that he had insisted on for several days of sleepless collapsed, and he almost didn't fall down.
The person next to him was busy supporting: "Second son......"
Tang Er raised his hand, "I'm fine, where did I send it from?" ”
"Huaicheng!"
He folded the letter, put it in his arms, and looked ahead, "Take a rest and return to Beijing tomorrow!" ”
"Second son, aren't we going to find Miss?"
"No, if we go to her now, it will be tantamount to exposing her location, that is the territory of the Han King and the big brothers, as long as Xiaoliu is not stupid, it will be fine."
What's more, Xiaoliu is not stupid at all.
Xiao Liu was divided into clothes worn by small soldiers, and lived in a large bunk for many soldiers.
There was a strong smell of sweat and stench inside, and she almost didn't throw up.
While there was no one inside, he quickly changed into the clothes on his body, took care of himself, checked that there was no problem, and was about to go out, when he thought of his face, he rubbed the ash on the ground and wiped it on his face: "Perfect!" ”
"You...... You, yes, it's you, newcomer, come here! ”
As soon as Xiaoliu went out, she was stopped by a person, she pointed at herself in confusion, what did she tell her to do? "You called me?"
"I don't call you a ghost, come here."
"Oh!"
Xiao Liu walked towards him: "You called me something?" ”
The man looked her up and down: "It's so small, no wonder it's assigned to me, it's called Chai Yu, right?" ”
Xiaoliu blinked: "That's right." ”
"That's right, follow me."
The man took her to a large kitchen and pointed to the basin on the floor.
"You will be responsible for washing the vegetables in the future, and when everyone is busy, you will light the fire and slowly learn to cook."
I went, "I don't want it, I'm here to fight, not to be a firehead." ”
"What's wrong with the Fireheads? Do you look down on us? Look at you like this, you can't block a few arrows when you rush up to block the arrows, so let's live a long life here, let's work quickly! ”
So saying, the man went to see the others cooking.
Xiao Liu squatted down and tore open a vegetable leaf: "The good ones were rushed to wash the vegetables, and there is no reason for heaven." ”
An uncle who was cooking next to him bowed his head: "Don't complain, this is also for your own good, at least it is safe here, and there will be no worries about your life." ”
Xiaoliu pouted, Uncle Huang was actually here, what should she do? Nangong Han's people are very fast, and as long as someone with suspicious deeds appears, they will be solved immediately.
Whether it is a killer, or a crowd in the rivers and lakes, or a spy of an enemy country, once found, there is no escape.
A group of people in Ningyi were forced to flee Huaicheng, and the masked man was Ning Yi.
"The Han King's power is too strong, and we can't enter his sphere of influence."
"So what do we do now?"
"Go to Xicheng, there are her two brothers there, and they will definitely ask for help!"
It's a pity that after a few days of activities in Xicheng, no trace of Tang Wan was found, but it was discovered by Tang Yili's people and investigated by the whole city.
That's when he withdrew.
"The master said that if the county lord can't be caught, the next master of the Zhenguo Mansion will have a good head."
…… After Tang Er rested for a day, he began to walk back, and in the evening, everyone rested at the inn.
Tang Er, who was sleeping, rolled over and pulled out the long sword under his pillow to block the oncoming reflective long sword.
......Through the faint moonlight outside the window, he saw a masked man, and it was clearly written in his eyes that he wanted to take his life.
"You assassinated my sister!"
Tang Er flew the sword, picked the sword, and kept attacking the enemy.
There was also the sound of weapons connecting outside, and even the sound of stepping on the tiles and hitting each other on the roof was heard on the roof.
Tang Er attacked the vital point of the visitor, but the martial arts of the person who came was not bad, the two kept fighting, and the furnishings in the house fell down.
The two of them hit from the inside of the house to the outside of the house, and the outside of the house hit the roof, Tang Er found the opportunity and slapped each other in the chest with one palm.
But he was also stabbed by the other party, he narrowly avoided it, looking at the injury on his shoulder blade, if he didn't avoid it in time, I was afraid that the stab would be in the chest.
With the strength of his clapping, the other party retreated to the corner of the roof.
Watching the two sides fight, more than half of the dead and injured subordinates glared at Tang Er, "Withdraw!" ”
After the others left, Tang Er knelt on one knee on the roof: "Poof......"
"Second Son......"
Subordinates flew over.
"Medicine the wounded, you can't stay here, they will soon come back, everyone evacuate!"
Tang wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth with his back and slowly stood up.
Rushed in the direction of the capital overnight, did not take the official road, and traveled by water.
Except for the night watchman, the injured were all recuperating, and Tang Er was lying in the cabin with his back against the wall.
With a bandage on his shoulder, he rested with his eyes closed, sword in his hand.
The slowly swaying boat suddenly climbed up a few men in black from the bottom of the water.
With a bandage on his shoulder, he rested with his eyes closed, sword in his hand.
The slowly swaying boat suddenly climbed up a few men in black from the bottom of the water.
A patrolling guard was covered from behind and his throat was cut, and several were quietly dealt with one after another.
The person who sensed that something was wrong turned around, just in time to see it, and shouted: "There are assassins!" ”
This sound woke everyone on board.
Tang Er immediately opened his eyes, picked up the sword and got up, raised his hand, pulled the clothes on the side, and turned around to put on his belt.
Open the door and walk out.
Seeing the two sides already fighting outside the door, they kicked over the man in black, drew their swords and killed, blood splattered on the cabin window, a blood line.
Rushed straight towards the masked man in black.
A sword provoked and stabbed the opponent's neck, but was blocked by the opponent's sword, and the sword slashed through the wooden window and pierced inside.
"Even assassinations have to be masked, but have we seen them? Maybe it can be said that your master is from the capital, and he is afraid that he will be recognized by me? ”
Tang Er tried to make a move.
"You're very smart, it's a pity, your life is left here!"
In a deliberately low voice, he turned his sword and stabbed Tang Er in the chest.
Tang Er hurriedly raised his sword to block it.
The two swords collided, the internal force shook, the doors and windows around the two of them broke, and Tang Er also shook the wound on his shoulder blade, and blood soaked out.
"Hmm......"
The masked man sneered: "It seems that you can't do it!" ”
As soon as the words fell, Tang Er was pressed down and knelt on one knee, and the wooden floor was shattered.
'Poof......' a mouthful of blood spurted out.
"Second Son......"
A guard from the Zhenguo Mansion rushed to the rescue.
'Wow'! Tang Er looked at the person who stabbed him from behind in disbelief: "You! ”
He was defenseless at all, this person was actually the other party's person! A sword is held against the masked man, and a backhand palm is struck to fly the spies.
The masked man took the opportunity to slap him into the river.
The masked man looked at the bright red blood on the surface of the water, pulled off his scarf, and Ning Yi sneered: "The second son of the Tang family who has such a miraculous legend is nothing more than that!" ”
…… Xiaoliu helped in the kitchen, and everyone took good care of her because of her sweet mouth.
"Alas, the prince didn't know what was wrong, so he was furious and lifted all the food, so that I didn't dare to deliver the food."
A soldier put down the tray aggrievedly.
