It was almost noon, and Niu Yaozu's guy ran back again.

"Why did you come back, everything is done?" Wu Zheng asked.

Niu Yaozu nodded: "Although those two guys got lost in order to take a shortcut, I let everyone add a penalty, as long as those two guys don't make any shortcuts, I believe that the first place this time will be the two of them." ”

"Interesting. When will they be back? ”

"We're already on our way back, and if nothing else, one of them will be there in a quarter of an hour."

Wu Zheng nodded, since Niu Yaozu had packed the ticket like this, Wu Zheng simply asked He Laowang to move a chair and sit on the high slope while basking in the sun, while waiting for these two guys to come back.

The winter sun was warm on his body, and Wu Zheng, who fell asleep, didn't know when he fell asleep, but he was woken up by He Lao Wu: "Uncle is about to wake up, they are back." ”

Wu Zheng opened his eyes in a daze, and sure enough, five people ran out of the barracks gate under the slope, and the one who took the lead was Qin Xiang.

I saw that the man looked left and right like a thief, ran to the school yard for a while and went back, grabbing a soldier standing guard as if he was asking him about something.

Although the distance was far away, Wu Zheng couldn't hear it clearly, but he didn't have to guess to know that this guy was making sure that he was the first to come back. Not really! That's fifteen miles more than the right route, wouldn't it be hellish if you could still get the first place? It's no wonder that he looked around when he ran into the barracks, that was his heart!

However, when he learned from the sentry standing guard that he had actually run first, this guy's arrogant temperament was immediately exposed, and his originally rickety body immediately straightened up, strode away and shook his hand, which was like two people when he just entered the camp!

"Brother Wu, Brother Wu! You're lying here until you're comfortable, you're asleep! ”

Wu Zheng's eyes widened, and he pretended to be surprised: "Yo! Brother Qin? You're back so soon? Then, in order to cooperate with this guy, Wu Zheng also deliberately looked at the sun, and then said in surprise: "It's just noon!" You're back two quarters of an hour before the others! ”

Qin Xiang smiled proudly: "Do you think I am one of those soldiers under you?" Just these fifty or sixty miles of mountain road, all to noon and not a single shadow to see, quite a year when I was in the right guard, let's walk around the city casually is not only this number! ”

"Really? You shouldn't be cutting corners, are you? ”

Qin Xiang, who was smug, couldn't help but blush, and suddenly said angrily: "Take a shortcut?" I don't think you want to admit it! Before, if I could run first, you would let me go on leave, do you still count as a man? ”

"Count! How to calculate. Although I am very pregnant with you and have taken a shortcut, I have no evidence! ”

Qin Xiang smiled: "Want evidence? Okay! Next time you go out to camp with us for a lap, maybe I'll be caught by you!" ”

"Don't squeeze me there, I'm the dignified general of Zuo Xiaowei, it's my right to sit here and bask in the sun. Don't you just want to be one? For you, from now on, you will return to the camp at this time of tomorrow, and those who fail to meet the deadline will be served by military law. ”

"Cut! Gas. You can also fight the military stick in our brothers? ”

Wu Zheng smiled: "I can't beat it!" But someone can do it! Although the military regulations of our Zuo Xiaowei were set by me, that guy had a better back than me. ”

"Are you Niu Yaozu's guy?"

"Looks like you know him well!"

Qin Xiang touched his chin that hadn't grown a beard yet, and said with a look of deep disapproval, "Forget it, I won't follow you, I have to go out first." ”

Looking at Qin Xiang's distant back, Wu Zheng couldn't help but be amused, glanced at the handsome tent behind him, and as soon as the door curtain moved, Niu Yaozu's guy came out of it.

Wu Zheng smiled: "I can't see that you are quite authoritative in their hearts!" ”

Niu Yaozu smiled bitterly: "I know that I am not treated well, so don't hurt me anymore." ”

"No! I'm really complimenting you! We are brothers, and we are also a team, and we can't do without people like you in a team. By the way, this time you went back to him to ask for soldiers, will you also get together Cheng Jin's 1,000 people? ”

"The two of them have been friends for generations, and if there is Qin Xiang, there must be Cheng Jin, which Brother Wu can rest assured."

Wu Zheng nodded, but with the brothers who went out for cross-country training, they came back one by one, but they hadn't seen Cheng Jin's figure yet, which made Wu Zheng have to start worrying a little about that.

"You're not going to get lost again!" Wu Zheng sat on the dodge chair and looked at Niu Yaozudao.

Niu Yaozu was also at a loss, and thought for a while: "Probably not!" When I came back, that guy had already arrived at Niujiao Mountain, less than twenty miles away from the camp, and he could touch it even with his eyes closed! Why don't I look for it again? ”

Just when Niu Yaozu was about to take someone to find Cheng Jin again, this guy finally came back. There were five people in the group, all covered in mud, and two of them even tore their clothes.

Looking at the appearance of these guys, Wu Zheng is also puzzled! said to Niu Yaozu: "Those guys shouldn't fall into the ditch!" ”

Niu Yaozu shook his head: "I know! ”

The two ran down the dirt slope, found Cheng Jin and asked, "Brother Cheng, did you fall into the ditch?" ”

Cheng Jin said angrily: "Don't mention it, I'll be bad luck when I get up, I actually ran into a bandit on this Guanghua Day." ”

"Thief?" Wu Zheng looked at Niu Yaozu with a puzzled expression and asked, "Brother Niu, there are bandits on our mountain?" ”

Niu Yaozu shook his head: "I haven't heard it." ”

But looking at Cheng Jin's appearance, it doesn't look like he's lying, even if he wants to make an excuse because he ran a bad hand in this competition, but this excuse is inevitably too bad! He Cheng Jin is not an idiot, there is no reason to find such a bad excuse to excuse himself!

"Brother Cheng, where did you meet, and how many people are there on the other side?" Wu Zheng asked.

Cheng Jin: "It's in Niujiao Mountain." ”

"Cowhorn Mountain?" Wu Zheng glanced at Niu Yaozu in surprise, but Niu Yaozu shook his head and said that he didn't see anything at that time.

Cheng Jin continued: "At that time, my brothers and I were about to go to the spring to drink water, but we saw a dead man in the spring. Listening to the sixth son, that guy is Liu Er, a merchant in Luoshui Town, under the mountain, and his whole body was stripped naked. That dead statue, I want to vomit now when I think about it. ”

Needless to guess, this guy must have drunk water before discovering the corpse of the spring.

In order to prevent this guy from continuing to think about it, Wu Zheng asked, "Then what does this have to do with bandits?" ”

Cheng Jin said: "Brother Wu, don't you think that Liu Er fell into the water and drowned!" ”

"This dress is stripped off, just in time for a shower!"

Cheng Jin couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "Please, Brother Wu, who will take off their clothes and go to the spring to take a cold shower in this winter?" ”

"Maybe Liu Erxi is difficult to swim in winter!"

"Really? Then what's the matter with the three fatal knife wounds on your Liu Er's body? ”

"Come and go, have you ever run into a bandit? Or did you just meet a Liu Er who was hacked to death? ”

"Of course we met, we found that Liu Erhou was trying to drag him out to inform the government, but on the road we ran into a corpse and a scared girl, the corpse was the steward of the Pei family in Luoshui Town, and the scared girl was the girl of the Pei family.

Her sister ran away under the cover of the family, and she and the steward did not have such a good life, and the steward pushed her into the grass before he died, and then the girl watched the steward be hacked to death in front of her by a gang of bandits.
