Chapter Ninety-Four: Life and Death (Part II)
Geng Gong thought of Zhang Feng's death, was sad, and said secretly: "Brother Feng, brother is sorry for you, this cup of wine, one respects Brother Dare and Brother Wu, and the other respects you, I wish you in the spirit of heaven, Brother Dare and Brother Wu have a safe journey!" "Tilt your head and drink the wine in your glass. Fan Qiang, Yang Yan and other warriors surrounded them, cup after cup, Li Kang and Yang Wu were overjoyed, and they were arrogant, and said to each other: "We are in the dungeon, no different from hell, we don't even have to drink the northwest wind, how can it be like today, toasting with so many brothers, it's really happy, happy!" ”
After drinking this meal for a long time, the jailer couldn't bear it anymore and urged him again and again. Geng Gong took a few hundred taels of silver, gave it to the jailer, begged to take care of him all the way, and took Li Kang and Yang Wu's hands, and said: "Although Yumen Pass is not as good as Luoyang, it is a military place after all, and the two younger brothers are there, be careful in everything, abide by the law, and don't be addicted to alcohol and make mistakes!" ”
Li Dang said in a rough voice: "Brother, don't worry, but you have to be more careful, I think that Dou Gu and the white-bearded old man will not let go of my brother easily." ”
Geng Gong was silent, took out a letter from his arms, handed it to Yang Wu, and said, "When you arrive at Yumen Pass, hand over the letter to the guard general Wu Luan." He was my brother's old general, and when he saw the letter, he would take care of it. ”
Yang Wu took the letter, Heng Jian read it, he didn't know half a word, and smiled: "This letter is crooked, like a book from heaven, I can't understand it." ”
Li Dang ridiculed on the side: "Yang Wu, you call a person who can't read to read and read the post, and all the paper is ink!" ”
Fan Qiang said: "Shibei for three days, impressive. After being locked up in the dungeon for a while, this Li Kang can be exported, and after a little more time, Li Kang can become a scholar! The crowd laughed.
Geng Gong was depressed, very worried, thought about it, and said: "Wu Luan, the guard general of the Yumen Gate, although he is my brother's old general, but I haven't seen him for many years, I don't know how, the two younger brothers went, be careful in everything, don't make mistakes!" He told him again, led the people, and left in a hurry.
The jailers escorted Li Kang and Yang Yan all the way north, and the mountains and rivers could not be seen. With money, the jailer is good at talking, good wine and meat, and serving Li Kang and Yang Wu, compared to being locked in a dungeon, one in the sky and one underground. In less than a day, it has reached Yumen Pass. After the jailer handed over the people, he returned to Luoyang.
The guard general Wu Luan read the case file, and saw that Yin Wangkang of Luoyang Mansion was killed, they were officials in the same dynasty, and they had also known each other, so he couldn't help but stand firm, slapped the table, and said angrily: "It's really bold!" Fu Yin also dares to kill, hum, take Li Dang and Yang Wu! ”
Li Kang and Yang Wu were outside the tent, and when they saw a soldier coming, Li Kang smiled and said: "Yang Wu, look, it's my brother's friend and an old acquaintance, as soon as we come, we will invite us to dinner, guess what, what will we be invited to eat?" ”
Yang Wu glanced at it, saw that the soldiers were violent, he was startled, and said: "Li Kang, no, no, they are so fierce, I'm afraid they invite us to eat sticks!" Li Dang was stunned for a moment, and was about to speak, but the soldier had already arrived, pushing hard, while urging sharply, a little slower, his fists and feet were smashed on his head and face, Li Dang was angry, a big mouth was still unconvinced, scolding and scolding, if it wasn't for the shackles, hands and feet were tied, he would have resisted a long time ago.
The two of them looked angry and were escorted to the lobby. Wu Luan listened to their scolding endlessly, and he had a fire in his belly, slapped the table loudly, and shouted: "Come on, take this disobedient dog slave, first hit fifty sticks!" ”
The soldiers rushed up like wolves and tigers, and without saying anything, they flipped Li Kang and Yang Wu to the ground, raising their boards to fight. Li Kang and Yang Wu are not fuel-efficient lamps, and when they struggled hard, the soldiers were unstable on their feet, and they took a few steps back and almost fell. Li Dang's eyes widened angrily, and he scolded: "Dog official Wu Lian, it turns out that it is not a good thing!" Hmph, my brother was self-inflicted, me! ”
Wu Luan was furious, and when he heard Li Dare scolding, he calmed down and thought: "They are escorted from Luoyang, and they have to ask clearly, so as not to cause trouble in vain." Then he asked, "Black man, what is your brother's name?" ”
Li Dare gasped, turned his face away, and made a gourd. Yang Wu raised his head and said proudly: "Wu Luan, my brother is Geng Gong!" ”
Wu Luan was startled, hurriedly walked down the hall, half-convinced, and said: "I am an old friend of General Geng Bing, although I haven't seen each other for a long time, but I know exactly who is in his family, you two, but I have never seen it!" ”
Yang Wu looked proud and said: "We followed Brother Geng Gong to the Western Regions, fought with 100,000 Huns, lived and died together, advanced and retreated together, although we are not brothers, but we are better than brothers!" ”
Wu Luan suddenly woke up: "The year before last, I moved from Cangzhou to Yumen Pass, I heard that Geng Gong's 300 soldiers defeated 100,000 Huns, and under the lack of water and food, he held on to Shule, and later survived Yumen Pass, only thirteen people, are you two among them?" ”
"Exactly!" Li Kang and Yang Wu said in unison and proudly.
"Ah, it turns out that you are warriors who stick to Shule, this official has admired you for a long time, like thunder, I didn't expect to be able to meet in this remote place, it is really a blessing for three lives! Sansheng is lucky, come on, hurry up and open the shackles, I want to have a drink with the two of you! ”
Yang Wu took out the letter from his arms and handed it to Wu Luan. Wu Luan took a brief glance, then put the letter in his sleeve, looked guilty, and said apologetically: "Two warriors, since you have this letter, why didn't you tell me earlier?" If I really hurt the two of them, where is General Geng, how can I explain? ”
Li Dang smiled and said, "If you see your brother's letter and invite us to drink wine and eat meat, what does it mean?" ”
Yang Wu agreed: "That's it, although the letter was written by my brother, we don't want to make friends, we would rather drink the northwest wind than bend our eyebrows and bend our waists in exchange for a game of wine and meat." ”
When Wu Luan heard this, he didn't feel good in his heart, and he didn't have a good seizure, so he had to smile and say, "That's!" Is that! General Geng said in the letter that the two heroes have the same skills, and they can serve in front of the tent, charge into battle, and win glory for the country. ”
Li Kang and Yang Wu were full of excitement: "That's right, that's right, we're here to fight!" If we don't fight, what are we going to do? ”
Wu Luan's face was embarrassed: "The general also knows that the two of them have fought with General Dou against the Huns, and they have the courage of ten thousand people, but, it's just that this Yumen Pass is not an ordinary place, it is very dangerous, and there is no room for negligence, ordinary people can, can, can, ......."
Wu Luan swallowed and vomited, and even said three "may" words, no matter how stupid Li Dang and Yang Wu were, they also understood the meaning, Wu Luan clearly despised himself! How could they endure it, and said in unison: "General Wu, the Huns we have killed, there are not 10,000, but 8,000!" ”
