The fierce-looking man grabbed the thin body of the little lady with both hands, and as soon as he let go, he might let the little lady's head fall into the pot, if it was scalded by boiling water, the tragic scene was unimaginable.

And the guy seemed to have a little brain, Guo Shao couldn't fool him with a few words, so he said: "I have a proposal, two horses for the life of the little lady." Our brothers will leave this place with two of your men first, leaving behind two war horses; Spare the little lady and ride away. If we come back and see the little lady unscathed, let your people go. How? ”

One of the people who was caught by the knife hurriedly said: "Cousin, don't leave your brother!" ”

"Shut up!" The fierce man immediately scolded.

As soon as Guo Shao heard someone call him his cousin, he was even more numerous, and without waiting for the guy to answer, he beckoned Luo Yang and the others: "Let's go first." ”

With that, he escorted two homeless thieves out and took away a fat horse.

A few people walked along the road behind the house for a while, and Yang Biao said angrily: "There are still these two cumbersome things, cut them first!" ”

The two thieves were afraid, and Guo Shao stopped: "Beware of that trick, these two people are a hole card, regardless of whether it is useful or not, save the necessary time to make a move." ”

Just then, the sound of horses' hooves sounded behind them.

Guo Shao immediately decided: "Third brother, watch these two people leave in the end, and kill them if they move!" Second brother, you go to the house to check the situation and guard the door. Then he turned over his horse, mounted his horse, picked up his bow and arrows, and galloped back.

rushed back to the hut, only to see a rider jogging on the road; The other rider was not far away, and a man lay on his back on the ground as if he had fallen half to death from his horse. The rider in front of him ran very slowly, because the downhill road was not easy to run, and if he was not careful, he would turn over on his back.

Before the guy had run a hundred steps, Guo Shao jumped straight off the horse, drew his bow and arrows, and aimed at the back of the guy, "Smack!" The man screamed and fell off his horse.

Guo Shao saw that he was hit by a blow, so he walked up to the man who fell half to death, and dragged him back by the arm.

At this time, the old man and the little lady had already arrived at the gate of the courtyard, and the little lady was walking behind, it seemed that there was no big problem, and Guo Shao breathed a sigh of relief. Otherwise, this girl was boiled in boiling water at such a young age, and it was really a bit unbearable.

The old man pulled the little lady and knelt in front of Guo Shao: "The grass people and the little girl thank the military master for his great kindness!" Then he kowtowed to the back of the little girl's head.

Guo Shao went up to help them up. Hearing the old man say "little girl", Guo Shao was a little puzzled...... This girl looks like she might be twelve or thirteen years old at most, and this old man is her father? Looking closely, he found that the old man's age didn't seem to be very old, maybe about forty, but it seemed that because life was too hard, he looked old.

At this time, the "old man" took his sleeve and wiped the face of the little girl next to him, and this action immediately attracted Guo Shao's attention, because he suddenly had a very strange feeling, the old man seemed to be wiping an object. Guo Shao glanced at the little girl, and couldn't help but take a second look, because she was very thin, her face was shaped like a melon seed, her skin was flushed, her lips were very dry and peeling, her eyelashes were wet with tears, her eye circles were red, and her big eyes looked innocent...... The main reason is that Guo Shao felt that this little girl was very familiar, and immediately remembered Yulian, especially the eyes that made people feel really similar.

At this time, Luo Mengzi escorted two thieves with their heads hanging over, Yang Biao was furious when he saw it, he picked up the knife and strode up, Yang Biao's appearance was already fierce and vicious, and he was even more frightened when he was angry, and the two of them trembled with fright: "Don't ...... Don't ......"

Guo Shao hurriedly stepped forward and reached out to cover the little girl's eyes. After a while, two screams sounded, Yang Biao's face was splashed with blood, which was even more terrifying, and he turned around and stared at the remaining thief, who suddenly softened and fell to his knees on the ground.

The little girl reached out to pull Guo Shao's big hand, Guo Shao pressed her shoulder, and said, "You are too small to look at." She listened to the strength of Guo Shao's hand, but the hand holding him did not move.

"Ahh There was another scream, and Yang Biao slashed with a knife.

The old man next to him was also so frightened that his face turned pale.

At this time, Guo Shaocai let go of his hand, turned around to lead the horse, and the horse that was ridden away also came back by itself. Luo Mengzi said: "Hey, do you have water at home, fill the water bag for us and leave." ”

The old man nodded busily with chickens pecking rice, and hurriedly took the water bag with both hands and ran into the house.

While the three of them were waiting, Guo Shao couldn't help but look at the little girl twice, and the little girl also looked up at him, and the two of them looked at each other silently. Guo Shao opened his mouth and asked, "What's your family name?" ”

"The surname is Dong." The little girl whispered a reply.

Guo Shao let out an "oh", took the bag of dry food from the horse and threw it at her. Xiao Niang didn't catch it, picked it up from the ground, opened it and saw that it was a pancake, and immediately took one out, turned her back, her thin shoulders trembled slightly, and made a rustling sound, like a rabbit eating.

The old man walked out with a water bag, glanced at the little lady with wide eyes, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva in front of people.

Seeing this, Guo Shao gave the old man a grain bag on another horse, which contained some rice and packed it in a cloth bag.

Luo Mengzi said: "Big brother, let's go!" ”

Dong Laohan suddenly said: "Master Jun, if you look at our third sister, why don't you buy it!" ”

Guo Shaoyi touched his body: "Our brothers didn't bring any money." ”

Dong Laohan turned his head to look at the fat and strong war horse: "It's okay to exchange the horse!" ”

Guo Shaodao: "This is a military horse, aren't you afraid that the horse will be taken away, and the government will be accused of stealing a military horse?" ”

"This ......"

Guo Shao pondered for a moment: "Are there any other people in your family?" Your land is so barren, and there is a constant famine of wars and horses, that sooner or later you will die of hunger. Otherwise, your father and daughter will go with me, and you will feed the horses for me in the future, and I will ensure that you have enough food every day, and you will have white flour to eat. ”

Dong Laohan was suddenly moved: "Eat white noodles every day? What does the military master say counts? ”

Guo Shao thought that as soon as he returned to Beijing, he would be promoted to a commander at the very least, with at least 500 soldiers under his command, and he couldn't afford to support two people? He smiled: "You think I made you can't afford to eat white noodles?" ”

Dong Laohan pondered for a long time, gritted his teeth and said, "Done!" There are only two people left in my family, and there are two brothers on the other side of the mountain, but they are separated...... Wait, Master Jun, I'll go and talk to my brother's house first...... Can these corpses be taken away by the military master and sent to the government? ”

Guo Shao said: "Then you go quickly." After that, he turned back and said, "Third brother, go into the house and look for a shovel or something, let's dig a pit in the back mountain and help them bury it." ”

The little lady was still standing there eating, and Dong Laohan took her by the hand and took her away. Before the people went far, Yang Biao said in front of people: "The poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people, this guy looks pitiful and cunning, I am afraid that the eldest brother will only take the little lady away." ”

Guo Shao was silent. Yang Biao snorted again and said, "If we are that kind of person, we can just grab it and leave, what can we do?" A villain is a villain! ”

Luo Mengzi smiled and said, "Big brother Mo doesn't want to ask that little lady to be his daughter-in-law?" ”

Yang Biao spat and scolded: "Stupid! The eldest brother will at least be promoted to a commander when he goes back, not to mention that he is the right person, if he wants to pick a little lady from a common people's family, those ladies in Tokyo are unwilling to let the eldest brother choose? Why pick this girl in the mountains! Don't you look at it, what kind of thin it has become, it's small, and a handful of bones wrapped in skin, is it interesting? ”

The three of them scolded and chatted at the same time, and when they went in to find tools together, Guo Shao unexpectedly observed the house with interest. The grass-roofed earthen walls, very rough, with surprisingly poor lighting, have two rooms inside that do not even have a single window. What is even more surprising is that one wall is actually made of bamboo strips and mud.

Three strong men carried the dead man to the back mountain, and then began to dig a pit, sweating all over. They just wanted to beg for a drink, and they ended up doing so much, but no one complained. The old man came back, and with a few villagers who were also ragged, he also helped dig the pit, and he worked hard for a long time before burying it.

In this world, there are chaos, and a few homeless thieves have died, and no one seems to care too much.

The old man said that he wanted to clean up his things, and Yang Biao was suddenly furious: "What are you grinding, Lao Tzu burned it for you!" The old man was so scared that he trembled, Yang Biao's appearance was really a ghost who was afraid of the lord!

Guo Shao smiled and said, "Leave it to the brothers in the back mountain." ”

A group of five people left the mountain village under the eyes of several villagers, and the old man looked back several times in a row. Guo Shao did not shy away from it, he grabbed the little lady's thin waist and hugged her on the horse's back, she quickly hugged the horse's neck, and let the war horse squirt from his nose very unpleasantly, and shook the horse's head. Guo Shao said softly: "Don't be afraid, relax, I'll pull the reins." ”

Yang Biao glanced at Guo Shao curiously, and Luo Mengzi smiled: "Let me lead the horse to the commander of the forbidden army, and the emperor will dare, right?" ”

Guo Shao said with a smile: "The general of Shangfeng also dares, but if I go to lead the horse for Shangfeng, the soldiers must not say that I am a sycophant?" ”

"Haha......"

The little lady lowered her head, and occasionally when Guo Shao turned her head, she would find that she was quietly looking at herself. Guo Shao was afraid of scaring her, so he asked as casually as possible, "What's your name?" ”

"Third sister."

Guo Shao asked again: "There are sisters and brothers above?" What about them? ”

Dong Laohan hurriedly replied: "Her eldest sister...... married, married far away. Her second brother went out with someone to escape the famine the year before last, and he hasn't come back yet, and he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead. ”

Guo Shao turned around and asked, "Are you really married?" Didn't you sell it? ”

Dong Laohan glared and said: "If it weren't for the famine, there would be no grain left, and I wouldn't sell my sons and daughters!" At first, the matter of the third sister ...... I feel that the military master is good, and I think that it is better to eat with the military master than to starve to death! ”

Guo Shao stopped dwelling on this question, and said: "You can call me lord in the future, you have a name, right?" ”

"Lord...... Gong, my name is Dong Bricklayer. ”

Guo Shao said casually: "There is no tile on the bricklayer's head, but it is thatch. ”
