About the second watch, Fan Li sat up from the bed and reached out to fumble with his clothes in the dark. The clothes are placed in a fixed position and can be reached by reaching out.

Meng Kui said, "Big brother, shall we leave now?" ”

Fan Li said, "I have to send you home at night." ”

Meng Kui also sat up and fumbled to put on his clothes.

The things that should be taken away should be packed before dark, and they should be carried on their backs. Fan Li said: "Let me carry it." ”

Meng Kui said, "How can I ask you to carry it? That's the last thing I can do for you. ”

The two left the mountain hut where they had lived for nearly a month. Looking back, the hut was silent in the watery moonlight. Fan Li lived a small life here for a month. Warm, romantic and beautiful. It's over now.

They passed through the dark mountain tunnel and came out into the jungle. The moonlight shone down through the cracks in the treetops and fell on the mountain grass, and the mountains and forests looked strange. The night wind lingered in the treetops, and the mountains and forests whispered sleepily.

There was no road in the mountains and forests, so they looked at the position of the moon and the stars in the sky, and determined that the general direction was correct, so they kept moving forward.

They have nothing to do in the mountains, except for eating and sleeping, they just talk, those words of love, words of reluctance, I don't know how many times. Now suddenly it's really going to be separated, but I can't think of a word to say.

In fact, I have a lot to say in my heart, but I don't know where to start.

Fan Li held the sword, and when he encountered the mountain vine branches, he deleted them, and the mountain grass hid the stones that protruded from the ground, and he would fall if he was not careful. Fan Li took the girl's hand with one hand and walked forward slowly.

In the middle of the night, they walked out of the jungle, and now they were less than ten miles away from Meng Kui's home, and at most half an hour away.

But this journey is also the most dangerous, and they don't know if the Wu army has withdrawn. It stands to reason that Fan Li suddenly disappeared from Wu Jun's field of vision for a month, and they felt that it was pointless to encircle here, so they should withdraw.

But there is another possibility, that is, they have found some clues and have been here all along. If so, there is a possibility that the two sides will meet, and then a fierce fight will break out.

Fan Li said: "Little sister, if you encounter Wu Jun, you must follow me closely, if you are too far away from me, you will not be able to take care of you." ”

These words couldn't help but make Meng Kui a little nervous, she said: "Big brother, you have a lot of important things to do, if you really meet Wu Jun, you can run away by yourself, don't worry about me." ”

Fan Li squeezed Meng Kui's hand vigorously: "Don't say stupid things. I just have a big deal, and it's not as important as your safety. I'm not going to leave you alone. ”

Meng Kui said: "I never dreamed that I would meet my big brother, let alone that I could live with you for such a period of time, my life is worth it." Even if I die now, I will die laughing, and I have no regrets. ”

Fan Li stopped and looked at Meng Kui, the girl's face looked very white in the moonlight, and she seemed to see tears flashing in her eyes. Fan Li reached out to hug her and whispered in her ear, "You are such a stupid girl." Your good days are still ahead, live a good life. If you can live well, Fan Li can do things with peace of mind. Maybe it's hard for us to meet again, but Fan Li will never forget you for the rest of his life. ”

Meng Kui trembled excitedly: "Can I call you Fan Lang?" Fan Lang, do you really think of Meng Kui? ”

Fan Li also said emotionally: "I will remember your kindness to me for the rest of my life." I really don't want to leave you, but I have to leave you. I've always felt sorry for you in my heart, but I can't compensate you. ”

Meng Shu burst into tears, paused for a while, and then said intermittently: "Fan Lang, it's right for you to leave me, otherwise you wouldn't be Fan Li." You are the big hero in my heart, and the big hero shouldn't be bound by a village girl. If I stand in your way, it will be the greatest sin of my life. Fan Lang, go with peace of mind and go to your business with peace of mind. Meng Kui has no regrets for you! ”

The moon shines on the wasteland, and the two hug each other tightly. In the depths of the distant wasteland, there seems to be a tragic parting song......

Fortunately, no one was encountered on the way, and it seems that the Wu army had already withdrawn. In the second half of the night, Fan Li and Meng Kui quietly returned to the small village called Huangcaopo.

Meng Kui's mother, a middle-aged woman named Mei Da, lit the oil lamp, looked at Fan Li, and then at her daughter, and said, "I thought you should have come back a long time ago, because you should have finished eating what you brought with you." ”

Meng Kui said: "Mother, we haven't finished eating our things yet." Big brother hit a wild boar, I caught a rabbit, we also caught a lot of fish, plus what we brought, we haven't finished eating, no, I'll bring some back for you. ”

Fan Li saw that Mei Da had changed into new clothes, her hair was combed neatly, her home had been added, and her food should be very good, not like the haggard and aging when they first met. Only now did I find out that she turned out to be a beautiful woman. It seems that it was the money he gave that played a role.

Mei Da looked at her daughter and Fan Li's expressions and behaviors, and she already understood everything. A lonely man and a widow, living in the mountains for a month, what should have happened must have happened. Looking at Fan Li's handsome appearance, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: "My girl, what luck!" ”

But she also understands what kind of longing her daughter will endure after Fan Li leaves. Life will never be all sweet, and it would be nice to have a bittersweet and half-bitter day.

Fan Li said: "Big sister, thank you for taking care of your mother and daughter these days. I have to go. ”

Mei Da smiled and said to Meng Kui, "Girl, is it appropriate for Master Fan to call me big sister?" Why don't you call me 'aunt'? You say, don't you? ”

Meng Kui's face turned red all at once. Stomping his feet and shouting: "Mother-what are you talking about?" ”

Fan Li also smiled awkwardly, not knowing what to say.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, things between men and women were not chaotic, but they were not as strict as after the Song Dynasty. Time went to the era before Fan Li traveled, and men and women really began to mess up. The depravity of humanity has only really begun, and it is in the cloak of civilization.

Fan Li hesitated, and then called out clearly: "Auntie! ”

Mei Da panicked, her still beautiful face flushed, and she hurriedly said, "My lord has tormented the concubine." Meda is a joke, adults don't have to take it seriously. I just pity my stupid girl, greedy for a moment of happiness, and have to endure the pain of lifelong longing. ”

Fan Li's face was full of guilt, he took out a few pieces of silver from the jewelry bag, and said: "Fan Li was careless, which brought Meng Kui's little sister a lot of pain, and there was nothing to repay, so I could only use this to express my shame." ”

Meida hurriedly said: "Adults, the last gift was enough to change the lives of our mother and daughter, and we really don't need this." ”

Meng Kui said: "Big brother, you will also need expenses to walk the rivers and lakes in the future." ”

Fan Li said: "You don't know much about Fan Li, gold and silver treasures have never been a bad thing for Fan Li. He took out a white jade bracelet from the bag and handed it to Mei Da and said, "Auntie, Fan Li's little heart, please accept it." ”

Meida prepared dry food for Fan Li overnight. Fan Li took advantage of the night and left the yellow grass slope. Meng Kui sent him ten miles and said goodbye in tears.

Chapter 473: Meddlesome

Fan Li walked alone in the wasteland. Because King Wu brutally killed Luo Jiang, he completely fell out with King Wu.

Fan Li's departure made King Wu very scared. What he was afraid of was that Fan Li could go to any surrounding country to make the country strong and prosperous soon.

The problem is that the surrounding countries have enmity with the Yue State, and the Chu State in the west was once defeated by the Wu State, and even the capital Yingdu was breached. Now there are tens of thousands of troops facing off on the border between the two countries. Maintain a situation of no war and no peace.

The Qi State in the north has just fought a battle with the Wu State, although it is said that there is a truce, but the hatred is still there, the geographical location of the Qi State is so good, and the products are so rich, as soon as Fan Li gets started, the Qi State will be stronger than the Wu State.

There is also the Yue State in the southeast, although it is nominally a subject state of the Wu State in my heart. But the hatred of losing the country will not be eliminated so easily. Moreover, King Yue is so benevolent and deeply respected by the people. There are also excellent assistants like Wen Chong under him. If Fan Li returns to his homeland, Yue will soon get rid of the control of Wu and become a strong enemy of Wu.

After Fan Li turned his face and left the country of Wu, King Wu regretted it. He hated that he shouldn't have offended Fan Li because of his careful eyes. Competing with a fifteen-year-old son for a woman and eating his son's dry vinegar is an ugly thing in itself. Not to mention the harm it brings to the country?

As a monarch, he is naturally selfish and narrow-minded, which makes him a big mistake. But as a king, King Wu did not have the habit of self-examination. All he could think of was to use the power of the entire country to hunt down Fan Li. His purpose is very simple, whether he is dead or alive, he will never let Fan Li leave the Wu State, so that Fan Li will never be able to help other countries deal with the Wu State.

But it backfired, and Fan Li was not so easy to kill. According to the report, a team of ordinary archers surrounded Fan Li. The two sides engaged in a fierce battle, and in the end Fan Li killed dozens of archers and fled.

Since then, Fan Li has disappeared, and no one has ever looked at Fan Li again. More than a month has passed, will Fan Li still be in Wu State? Does it make sense to hunt down the whole country like this? King Wu ordered the pursuit to be stopped.

However, there is one person in Wu who is not idle, and this person is Wu Zixu.

Wu Zixu smashed the wine jar that Bo Yao gave to King Wu, which was considered to have completely offended King Wu. The difference is that King Wu has not taken him down. Maybe he thinks he still has value to use.

But Wu Zixu did not change his mind, and he was still wholeheartedly worried about the fate of Wu Guo. He got a piece of information that he had been to many places, large and small cities, and even some rural market towns, all of which were selling the same Quyang Dajiao.

Wu Zixu has drunk this kind of wine, and this wine is so good that no one can't help but dislike it. It is no wonder that everyone who loves wine, from officials to ordinary people, flock to it.

How much food will it cost to do this and go on like this?

Also, where did that come from? Who is in this business? Where did all this food go? There's some conspiracy here.

Wu Zixu sent someone out for an unannounced visit, and the news he got was that the operator of this wine was Dazai Boyao? Wu Zixu felt that the matter was very serious. Because Fan Li is gone, Bo Yao is the most trusted person of King Wu.

There is some conspiracy here, and Wu Zixu can't fight Bo Yao. Bo Ya admitted that he was selling wine, why is it like this? Is it illegal to sell alcohol?

But if the grain obtained from selling wine goes to other countries, it will cause harm to the state of Wu.

On the surface, you can't fight with Bo Yao, and it's not illegal to sell alcohol. And King Wu won't listen to him. For the sake of the interests of Wu State, Wu Zixu had to resort to a little despicable trick, he sent some individual soldiers to disguise themselves as some ruffians and hooligans, and went to some sales points in Quyang to provoke and make trouble, and if it was not good, he smashed people's wine jars.

There was the support of local officials who sent troops to defend the point of sale, so there was no outbreak of the guards and the ruffians. Although the effect of this was limited, Wu Zixu still insisted on doing it. He can be regarded as doing his last bit for Wu Guo.

What people didn't expect was that this incident happened to Fan Li. If you meet, you will meet, Fan Li shouldn't care about this kind of trivial matter, he has more important and more important things to do, no matter who he has beaten whom, this matter can be easily settled with Bo Yao's ability.

But Fan Li just took care of this kind of thing that shouldn't be managed. And how many stories have been spawned out of the extraneous branches.

He had been away from Meng Kui for several days, and he would be able to leave Wu and enter Yue in two more days. He traveled most of the time at night and found an enemy to sleep with during the day. It's hard work, and I often don't get a good night's sleep.

On this day, Fan Li wanted to find a hotel to sleep in, so he walked into a small town. The town is small, and if you shout it here, you can hear it there. As soon as he entered the town, he was captivated by an unusual sound.

It was the shouts of hundreds of people.

Fan Li was surprised. How can there be such a fighting sound here? Walking further, I heard the impact of weapons ping pong. This is not an ordinary folk brawl, this is playing with life.

When I got closer, I was even more surprised to see that one side of the fight turned out to be the official army, and the other side was the clothing of the common people. These people dressed as ordinary people have a stronger combat effectiveness than those officers and soldiers, and they also put on a posture to fight against the enemy, and it is obvious that these people have been specially trained.

Fan Li used to be the supreme commander of the Yue army, and this matter could not be hidden from his eyes. This is strange, how can a formally trained soldier pretend to be relying on the people and fight with the official army?

There are bold people watching the excitement, but they are all hiding far away, ready to run away at any time. Fan Li said to a man in his thirties, "What happened here?" ”

The man glanced at Fan Li, saw that he was carrying a sword, and said, "Can't you see?" Fighting. ”

Fan Li said: "Who is fighting whom?" ”

The man said: "Look at the clothes, one side is the official army. ”

Fan Li said: "What about the other side? ”

The man said, "I don't know. ”

Fan Li said: "Why did the fight start? ”

The man said, "Do you smell the wine?" ”

Fan Li said: "I smell the smell of wine, and the street is full of wine." ”

The man said: "The hotel is doing business well, and suddenly dozens of ruffians and hooligans came to make trouble, beat the people in the hotel, and smashed all the wine jars of others. You know? The backstage boss of this hotel is a big official in the capital, and other people's hotels are protected by the officials, how can they make trouble like this? So the two sides fought. I said, why are you asking this? ”

Fan Li said angrily: "Where did these ruffians and hooligans come out, isn't this a clear bully?" ”

The man said, "They are clearly bullying people, what can you do?" Don't you see that they are not even afraid of the officers and soldiers? ”

Fan Li said: "I don't believe in this evil. ”。

The man said, "What do you want?" ”

Fan Li said: "I want to take care of this idle matter!" With that, he slowly drew his sword.
