Volume 1: The World Rises Luoyang Will Hidden Dragon Chapter 6: Out of the City
It turned out that this inn was where Xu Liu settled after entering the city, and because he was still young, he was unable to enter the Guo Mansion with Xu Fu, so Xu Fu helped him find a job as a waiter at the inn. But it was just as good as it was, and the high hay heaps in the stables made an excellent hiding place for the two badly wounded. Anyway, Xu Liu usually sleeps in the stable, unless there is something important, few people are willing to come to this place full of the smell of livestock feces and urine.
Because Ah Meng robbed and killed and injured many officers and soldiers, the government had already searched and distributed maritime arrest documents all over the city. But at that time, almost all the officers and soldiers who had seen Ah Meng and Xu Liu, except for the seriously injured long whip armor, were killed by Ah Meng, and for a while, the government had no way to pursue them, so Ah Meng's group was safe for the time being.
"Liu'er! Why have you eaten so much lately, you stinky boy? If you continue like this, the shopkeeper will fire you in two days! Chef Zhang Da joked about Xu Liu's recent skyrocketing meals.
"I didn't see that I want to grow my body, and besides, I don't get his monthly money for working here, so I'll let him feed the horse by himself if he fires it!" Ignoring the other guys, Xu Liu walked back to the stable with his big bowl full of gaps.
Xu Liu looked around vigilantly, and saw that everyone was patronizing the meal, and no one paid attention to him, so he quietly went around the back of the hay pile with a bowl, pulled some hidden hay open, and got in.
"Come, Brother Meng!"
Xu Liu handed the bowl to Ah Meng, who had woken up, he also respected Ah Meng very much, but a bowl of gruel with a few wild vegetables and a little bit of oil flowers Ah Meng poured it directly and half of it was gone.
Just as Ah Meng was about to finish eating the rest, he saw Xu Liuzheng looking at him with blank eyes, obviously Xu Liu hadn't eaten yet, so he stopped and stuffed the bowl back to Xu Liu.
"Come on! You eat too, and if you fall down too, there's no one to take care of the two of us!" Ah Meng smiled and looked at this young man who was a little restrained in front of him, obviously Ah Meng also had a great affection for this sensible and stubborn young man.
Compared with Ah Meng, who is as strong as an ox, Xu Fu has not woken up yet, after suffering all kinds of severe torture, he has suffered very serious external injuries, although Xu Liu has carefully cleaned and bandaged his shocking wounds one by one, but he still has to pay more attention to recuperation in order to recover.
"Liu'er, go and pour me some water...
The voice was very hoarse, and it was Xu Fu, who had been in a coma for many days, who finally woke up.
"Brother Afu!! You're finally awake! You wait for me to bring water right away. ”
Seeing Xu Fu wake up, Xu Liu was full of joy, and immediately trotted all the way to get water.
"Who are you?"
After Xu Liu walked away, Xu Fu immediately looked at Ah Meng who was sitting on the side vigilantly, obviously he was very wary of Ah Meng, who was tall and tall.
"In Xia Han Meng! Thank you for saving your life! Ah Meng didn't care about Xu Fu's Meng Lang and directly identified himself.
“。。。”
I didn't know what Xu Fu was thinking, he didn't speak, and the atmosphere became a little dull for a while, but Ah Meng didn't bother, he knew that Xu Fu needed time to digest these.
Fortunately, this dullness did not last long and was broken by Xu Liu, who was full of joy, Xu Fu's awakening made him seem to have found the backbone of the heart and returned to his former cheerfulness, and a full bowl of water was sprinkled in front of Xu Fu's mouth, on the one hand, it was excited and the other was caused by excitement.
"Brother Afu, how are you feeling?" Xu Fu couldn't wait to ask before he finished drinking, haha, it doesn't hurt that the young man's heart is a little frizzy.
"Hehe, okay, it's estimated that it will recover in a few days!" Looking at the excited Xu Liu, Xu Fu returned with a smile.
"Brother Afu, I was really afraid that you would be killed, if it weren't for Brother Ameng, I really don't know what to do!" Speaking of difficulties, Xu Liu almost burst into tears again.
"Silly boy, didn't I come back! My Xu Fu's life, even if Lord Yama comes, it won't be so easy to take away! Xu Fu patted Xu Liu, who was embarrassed, on the shoulder and comforted.
"I traveled to Hebei that day to see a vision from the sky, and I also found you when I saw Hunting Xinxi to check it. It's easy to save you, no thanks! After comforting Xu Fu, he looked at Ah Meng and explained what happened to save Ah Meng that day.
"The grace of life is unforgettable!" Like Xu Fu, Ah Meng is also a person with clear grievances.
"That's it! Now that you have saved my life, our family will not owe each other. At this time, Xu Fu let down his guard, both of them are bold people, but they are also a little sympathetic.
"Brother Xu, do you have any plans next?" After the politeness, Ah Meng asked directly, after all, the fate of the three of them has long been implicated.
"I want to go home first and settle my mother, after all, I am afraid that I will incur revenge if I kill the head of the Guo family!"
"Let's go!"
After thinking about it for a while, Xu Fu decided to go back to Xujiazhuang first, although he covered his ears and eyes when he was assassinated, but the Guo family's power in Yingchuan is monstrous, and it is difficult to guarantee that his identity will not be found! If this is the case, the most dangerous thing is the old mother in the family, and Ah Meng is also very worried that the kind old woman directly echoes Xu Fu's decision.
"Catch... Hmmm! ”
Zhang Da, the cook who was about to go to bed to rest, heard the sound of hissing from the kitchen, and thought that he had entered the rat, so he immediately turned on the lamp and rushed to the kitchen! It turned out that three humanoid rats were eating the ingredients he had worked so hard to prepare for tomorrow's morning market, and what was even more excessive was that these guys were eating and stuffing a big horrible package! ! Is this going to empty the kitchen? Seeing this terrifying scene, Zhang Da almost fainted with cerebral congestion for a while, and just wanted to shout, but was restrained by the quick-eyed Ah Meng and covered his mouth!
"You two go over there! You come with me! ”
"And you have to know that these bandits are very vicious, and if you encounter them, you can immediately shout for rescue, be very careful!"
"Yes!"
Just as the four of them were staring at each other in the kitchen, the words of the officers and soldiers were heard in the distance!
It was getting late, but these officials were still searching for them, and it seemed that the Guo family had put a lot of pressure on Chen County. It's no wonder that the head of his own family asked someone to break into the house directly to kill him, and if he let the murderer escape, then the Guo family's face in Yingchuan was also slammed on the ground and stepped on a few feet, and even spit a few mouthfuls of spit on the ground.
Hearing the words of the officials, Zhang Da suddenly broke out in a cold sweat! Bandits?! Official, aren't the bandits you're looking for? Oh, my God! I haven't married a daughter-in-law yet, I don't want to die!
Listening to the footsteps seems to be getting closer! What to do? Ah Meng and Xu Fu looked at each other, and quickly thought about countermeasures!
"Woo woo~" At this time, Zhang Da, who looked at the two people with a fierce light in his eyes, seemed to have something to say, but he was afraid that the action would be too big and he would be misunderstood by the two and killed, so he had to carefully compare.
"Zhang Da, do you have a way?" Fortunately, Xu Liu, who recognized Zhang Dalai, asked.
"Uh-huh"
Someone finally understood what he meant, and Zhang Daneiniu nodded wildly with a full face! Seeing this, Ah Meng had no choice but to stare at Zhang Da with suspicious and warning eyes, and finally chose to slowly let go of Zhang Da!
"Huha" Zhang Da let out a long breath, and was about to open his mouth to explain when there was a hurried knock at the backyard door!
"Open the door, open the door! Official errand! ”
"Come on, come on! What do you have to do? He opened his mouth wide in reply, but pointed to the swill bucket in the corner of the kitchen, and then trotted out of the kitchen to open the door.
"Who are you?"
"I'm the cook here, my name is Zhang Da!" Zhang Da followed behind the two officials and carefully answered the officials' interrogations.
"Cook?" The two officials smiled at each other.
"That's right, hurry up and serve me two whole dishes! It's been a long time since I've been gone, and I'm dying of starvation. ”
It turns out that these two officials are doing fish and meat in the name of hunting, no wonder they didn't even bother to check when they entered the door and went straight to the kitchen, and it is estimated that this is the back of the inn before they came in temporarily.
"Slippery, hurry up! Delay the official to eat, you are good-looking! Seeing Zhang Da's embarrassed face, the official scolded with a gloomy face.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Zhang Da, who was threatened, hurriedly slowed down and walked to the kitchen first.
Alas! I don't know if the three of them understood what he meant, in case those bandits rebelled, it is estimated that not only these two officials will have to explain here, but even their own lives will be difficult to protect. Zhang Da thought worriedly as he opened the kitchen door.
"Squeak!"
To Zhang Da's surprise, except for the sound of the door opening, the whole kitchen was quiet! Even the kitchen, which had just been made a mess by the three of them, was restored to its neat appearance, and Zhang Da was a little confused for a while, so he had to be busy turning it on, and moving the lamp out of the table to entertain the two officials.
"Come on! Wine! ”
"Let's go!"
"Drink!"
It was almost late at night for more than an hour, and the two officials were full of wine and food, and walked out of the backyard gate with Zhang Dabi's respectful support.
"Ahh I'm fainting from the stench! ”
When Zhang Da came in and locked the door and turned around, he was startled, it was Xu Liu, who could no longer hold back the swill, and crawled out of the swill bucket!
"Whoa!" Before he could open his mouth, there was a sound in the two buckets next to him, and it was Ah Meng and Xu Fu who were about to come out of the buckets!
"Thank you, Zhang Dayi, for helping me wait!" Ah Meng and Xu Fu hugged their fists at the frightened Zhang Da and thanked him.
"But I still want to ask Brother Zhang to help me wait one more time!" But it was Xu Fu who had a plan and thought of a plan.
"Ouch! I'm just a cook, what else do you think I can do to help you? ”
"Out of town!"
"There's nothing I can do!"
"Take the waterway!"
After Xu Fu explained the arrangement, everyone began to prepare.
The moonlight tonight is very bright, and you can see many places clearly without lighting the lights, and Zhang Da drove out of the backyard with a rickety ox cart in the backyard of the inn and headed for the west pier of the city. The ox cart contained several large buckets of swill, which made it easy for people to hide.
